As a nation we die a bit at a time!

Smoking bans kill businesses - FACT!


     I've sat here for the past couple of weeks watching as this country disintegrates into a total shambles. Yes, I totally agree that the failings in our hospitals are a disgrace and that people have acted wrongly but let's turn the clock back a little bit fiurther shall we?
Who declared that hospitals should come under a sort of 'time & motion' set up where cost evaluations superceded patient care? Who declared that each "A&E" patient should be seen in 'x' minutes? In other words, who put our wonderful hospital staff under such pressures?
     Governments, that's who! I was reliably informed by a most eminent gentleman at my local hospital that they now boasted three managers to one bed. How can this be I ask? When I was a mere sprat, Matron ruled the ward, the bay, the bed-end of story, so where have all these highly paid, ineffectual, namby pamby managers come from? Why is it that hospitals ran smoothly years ago but nowadays all you hear about are tragic deaths due to a cock-up of some sort or other or a lack of staff because budgets rule?
 
     A trusted lady friend once started work at a hospital where she was told that her duties involved checking/changing oxygen pipe tubing, tissue box replacements, linen cupboard organisation etc etc. She found it very boring indeed. One fine day she went to help an old lady with her dinner as she was struggling with the cutlery; bad mistake! She was promptly hauled away and told, in no uncertain terms, that such actions were not part of her job description and that if she had nothing to do for the next thirty minutes or so she had best 'look busy' by walking around the hospital for half an hour! She left the job altogether as she simply could not get her head around the fact that helping another, less able bodied person, was not in her job description. And that is what has gone wrong with our wonderful and much revered NHS service folks - too many "Chief's", too many rules/regulations and too few "Indians"!(and don't anyone start screaming racist at that turn of phrase thank you). Thanks to the idiotic American culture that's finally arrived of su-ing anyone for anything, everybody is afraid to step out of line for fear of legal redress-helping people has become secondary. Health & Safety has crippled this country and "risk assessments" have sliced the nations crutches in half. 

"A FURIOUS coroner has attacked paramedics who left an accident victim drowning in a ditch because they did not want to breach health and safety rules."
     Now let's get a grip here folks, if my son, brother, cousin, whatever, had died because of the lack of attention of the medical team (ie, not getting him out of the ditch) then I'm afraid that they would be hospitalised for some considerable time for as the Coroner stated: 

“I was brought up in a country where men risked their own lives to save the lives of others. That was a period in our history which has almost ceased.” (MIchael Rose, Coroner)
     Here's another priceless H&S gem that cost a life!
     But, sadly, we are now a nation of namby-pamby's. Even a government report states the obvious when it found that normal children's activities such as climbing trees, playing in mud, camping out in the back garden were now parts of growing up that were fast disappearing! While 57% of their parents were members of the Scouts or Brownies, only 16% of today's youngsters sign-up and over a quarter (28%) admit they probably would not let their children climb a tree! What a sad state of "cotton wool" kids we have reared. Congratulations to all those sickly, spineless 'do-gooders' that appeared in the 70's who wanted to protect everyone from everything! Have you seen the "Risk Assessment" form that now goes with the application to perform a 'Charity Walk' on a nice quiet Sunday morning? Page after page of them yet you walk those same streets, roads, paths everyday of your life as a part of your normal daily routine! They have created a whole industry out of Health & Safety cobblers advice, mostly in areas where simple common sense should prevail.
     For those that can't see whats coming I suggest you nip over to Detroit and have a 'looksee', for my American friends tell me that if you fly over there and spend a couple of hundred dollars you could end up as the cities 'hero of the day'-so impoverished has Detroit become! You may have guessed already that Detroit has 'filed for bankruptcy'; except a local judge has halted the proceedings saying that it is some sort of insult to the president (hilarious) ..... which one I ask? You really ought to read the 25 reasons why Detroit is now 'less than half a Detroit'! Look how hard the Michigan anti smokeban protestors have been fighting-to no avail as more & more businesses close down. Beware folks, whatever happens in America ..... we follow like sheep! Point No 10 stands out like a sore thumb which says:  "Less than half of the residents of Detroit over the age of 16 are working at this point." Now this is a sore point with some because we are, slowly but surely, going to arrive at the same situation in this country as we allow more and more immigrants into this country.     
     We sit here today with unemployment rising to 2.52m yet we are told that we need more immigrants to fill the jobs that are vacant ..... but there are NOT 2.52m vacancies (808,000 actually)!           However, we find that the EU are happily stabbing us in the back by offering EU workers £900 if they get a job in THIS country! And we still have idiots in powerful positions telling us that WE NEED to be part of a more corrupt society than the one we already belong to!
 

David Cameron has said he agrees that immigration represents a constant drain on Britain's public services. 

(Hand on heart folks - I couldn't give a shit!)

On the other hand we have the Camoron telling us "that immigration represents a constant drain on Britain's public services." Well folks, it would seem that all that Oxford education wasn't wasted after all as the obvious is spouted from the mouth of 'the chosen one' - well, we did elect him didn't we. The problem is that 'the chosen one' speaks with forked tongue! He spouts referendum, but since his little parlais with the Bilderberg mobsters he will NOT be honouring his vows with regard to a referendum. 

Maggie Thatcher, a female recently laid to rest bless her, had 'balls', this "man" possesses none. He is not a power for the people at all, he is simply another puppet happy to go along with all the namby-pamby, arse licking wannabe world leaders who think that a united world is the 'be all & end all' of humanity. Well guess what folks it isn't-and here's a prime example of why it isn't!
Tragic: 87-year-old Dorothy Griffiths was left unattended for ten minutes because her Muslim nurse was praying, an inquest heard 
Dorothy Griffiths - died because of another's religious belief!
     Abdul Bhutto, an agency nurse, told junior staff they would have to wait to tend to Dorothy Griffiths until he finished praying, ie, before he would attend to 87-year-old Dorothy  Griffiths, who died nine days later. Mrs Griffiths, who suffered from  Alzheimer’s, was left on the floor while the Muslim nurse continued to pray on his mat. Do these dopey, so called, world leaders think that they are going to conquer religious fanaticism like this and unite the world? I don't think so for incidents like this (and there are plenty of them that go unreported) only serve to fuel people's dislike of Muslim ideals & practices further toward hatred. People who can happily drag frightened, screaming animals onto a concrete killing block, or into a metal head vice so as to cut their throats, allowing them to bleed to death are seriously sick in the head. How do you civilise or Westernise a barbaric culture like this? You can't, it's as simple as that yet we are allowing more and more immigrants (a big percentage of them Muslim) into this country, a country that will soon lose it's identity! But this country's been doing that since the 1970's when the 'do-gooders' got a foot in the door and it has got so bad now that you daren't say 'Good morning' to some people lest they take offence. No wonder we are fast becoming a 'dog eat dog' nation of people, who have no chance of progressing for the simple reason that the large numbers of immigrants coming here are forcing us to regress.
We even have the World health Organisation interfering with our human rights as they have now, after many years of trying, got a religious leader to condemn shisha pipe smoking by him declaring a "fatwa". Not only has this so called eminent man banned shisha pipe smoking but also “prohibited from providing shisha-smoking services or any activity associated with shisha”.   
 
 Dr Abdul Shukor Husin denies Malysians their rights
Margaret Chan must be almost orgasmic at that result for they (the WHO) have fed Prof Emeritus Tan Sri Dr Abdul Shukor Husin with all the anti-smoking bilge and (probably) non of the actual truth. I pity the poor people of Malaysia for who knows what punishments will be meted out to those who fancy a smoke! 
     But then truth doesn't matter to the WHO anymore, their proposed endgame does-but the question arises yet again: "if smoking rates are declining, then why are cancer cases continually rising?" They don't want you to ask that one folks as they cannot lie about that.
     Perhaps the WHO actually think that by eradicating smoking there will be no illnesses, thus no need for hospitals anymore and therefore no more 'cost evalutions' which completely overshadow patient care it seems!
Smoking debate anyone?

Here come the Little - Kumar's

Smoking bans KILL businesses - FACT!

 (h/t to Tug:)
     Well, well, well folks, it seems that it takes a man of integrity to finally spout the truth we have all known for nearly twenty years - Smoking is NOT the biggest single cause of Lung Cancer!
 
( Dr Harpal Kumar-head honcho of the liars at CRUK )
Dr Harpal Kumar said that while the number of smokers is falling, which is leading to an overall reduction in the number of those developing lung cancer, there are still a steady 6,000 people developing the disease who do not smoke.

     So, smoking rates are supposedly decreasing (government likes to think so at any rate) yet lung cancer rates are not - well there's a thing! Apparently there are 6,000 new LC cases per annum but less smokers to blame it on, so asbestos & AIR POLLUTION has suddenly appeared in the mix! Now isn't this exactly what Dr Kitty Little was banging on about in the 1980's & 90's ..... but was ignored because her views didn't suit political agenda - especially Godbers plan of lies & deceits! I cannot remember how many times I have cited this woman's work, always to be ignored but now the 'famous' Kumar's have taken up the mantle of truth then it must be so!
    The TV version-Meet the Kumars
It is very easy to see why her work was always put to one side for she stated the obvious:-

  • tobacco smoke contains no carcinogens, while diesel fumes contain four known carcinogens; (hmmm, I thinks that's now debatable folks!)
  • that lung cancer is rare in rural areas, but common in towns;
  • that cancers are more prevalent along the routes of motorways;
  • that the incidence of lung cancer has doubled in non-smokers over past decades;
  • and that there was less lung cancer when we, as a nation, smoked more.
      Pointing out that there has been evidence for over 40 years that smoking does not cause lung cancer, Dr Little says:
"Since the effect of the anti-smoking campaign has been to prevent the genuine cause from being publicly acknowledged, there is a very real sense in which we could say that the main reason for those 30,000 deaths a year from lung cancer is the anti-smoking campaign itself".
     Pretty damning I'd say, wouldn't you? In trying to force a false agenda onto people by mindbending (not to mention moving goalposts on a monthly basis to avoid massive EU fines) it would appear to me that government themselves are liable for many deaths since Kitty Little announced the truth..... which was promptly subdued!
     So now we know just how corrupt governments can be and how much more corrupt they are likely to be in future years. After all, how many idiot MPs, totally ignorant of the truth were suckered into that "FREE VOTE" on the reformed 2006 Health Act where ASH played them like puppets on a string? Actually 453 puppets were taken in by the so called 'experts' who savaged SHS as the biggest killer of all time-some 'experts' eh? The biggest problem now is that having made this horrendous law by virtue of being hoodwinked by so called 'experts', government are going to need a bucketful of courage to admit that they were duped in the first place! I'll leave this mini blog with one simple pictorial thought in your minds.......
 
Suck in that crap, baby, suck it in!

Abbot (without Costello)



 Smoking bans KILL businesses-FACT!
     
     Yesterday was, as fellow blogger Dick Puddlecote describes, a good day for not only was Plain Packaging chucked in good old Dusty Bin, but the minimum price proposal for alcohol went with it.
 
     The first was the brainchild of those ever demanding fruitcakes from Tobacco Control-who originally promised us that they only wanted to ban smoking on short haul flights of 2hrs or less (see, they even lied at the very start of their campaign!). Plain packaging was subject to a public consultation-well, supposedly but as usual, government twisted things around to suit themselves-much to the annoyance of Fatty Arbuckle Abbot who. when interviewed yesterday promptly proclaimed that this government were killing 'x zillion' children every day by not imposing plain packaging.
 
Fatty Arbuckle Abbott in full, vitriolic flow
     Now I would have thought, as she is the shadow health minister, that she would have very little to shout about considering her gross stature! After all we are looking at an extravagantly fed lump that is well into obesity yet said fat lump is extolling the lack of health options now removed by this government! The uselessly biased BBC did their utmost to conceal their grief on the matter as Simon Clark kindly points out over at Taking Liberties.
     You will note that Diane Abbott amplifies the point that 53% were in favour of PP when in fact that was only the government filled survey that she was talking about. Now this "Public Consultation survey" was not easy to find I can tell you but find it I did, as did 2423 others (see page 14 here sorry DP, nicked this bit from you!). As you can imagine, a significant proportion of the 1,350+ pro PP 'filler-innerers' will be state-funded bodies or individuals rounded up by the likes of Arnott, Duffy etc so as to bolster their side of things. But that still leaves over a thousand goodly souls who bothered themselves to say cobblers! More interestingly (I think anyway), is that 'THE' public consultation, despite much garnering & falsifying of votes by TC ended up with a resounding victory for common sense; ie the common man! Arnott, Duffy, Dockrell, Farren et al must have been mortified to find that they had been slaughtered by almost 2-1 as more than 422,000 "NO" votes rolled into town. Even all their skulduggery only managed to poll slightly less than a mere quarter of a million votes-some drubbing eh! I'll bet the Arnott was puking in her bedwarming-pan after all her vicious scheming & plotting was rejected. Antique Cooper Brass Bed Warmer - Warming Pan - Decorative Star Wood Handle 38"Mind you, why this evil bitch is still being paid the exorbitant amount she is paid is totally beyond this writer!
     It's truly hilarious watching the TC mob squirm, especially as this report has now surfaced which states categorically that:

"I discovered the evidence was really weak," explained lead author Ronald Bayer, a professor at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health. "The evidence of harm to non-smokers on the beach or in a park from someone smoking is virtually non-existent." 

     Ooh, Debbie baby, eat your rotten, self indulgent & well overpaid heart out! There it is..... THE TRUTH!
 
     Smoking bans are imposed because a small number of people dislike the smell of burning tobacco therefore they have abused the positions they have attained by imposing their miserable, intolerant  lifestyles on anyone who dares to smoke-Godber being a prime example! But are they right to do so?
     Here's a little gem from a Dr Mike Knapton (h/t Sean S) who openly discusses the fact that air pollution is dire,  and says "it is ... reasonable to consider that air pollution may have made some contribution to the earlier deaths of up to 200,000 people in 2008." Now you have to take on board the fact that the reviled BHS (who sack smokers) have known of this all along yet complain and lobby only against smokers ! Stress is the biggest cause of heart attacks (and other problems) yet people such as the BHF only want to tell you about possible harms from smoking!
     Ralph Tarrant, now Britains oldest living person (110) smoked until he was 70..... 40 years ago! Hopefully we don't have to put up with the Arnott until she is 70! When she gets cremated she will be gone in a puff of smoke-how ironic eh! Ralph gave up smoking when he felt it right to do so, not when some 'nannyist pussy' decided that he should-and that's how it should be folks, after all, everyman is the father of his own destiny! It's in the genes. Some people live very short lives and some, like Ralph, live very long lives. Some people are very thin and some are Diane Abbotts. Some are 5ft or less and some wander the streets at a lofty 6ft 4inches, it's all in the genes and no one can dictate at birth what another persons life will be. 
     Madam Calment who reached 120 yrs enjoyed a life that included alcohol, cigarettes, chocolates and sweets. As well as her sweet tooth, she was fond of cheap red wine, fois gras and a rich local stew.
Madame Jeanne Calmet - 120!
     After such a long life her doctors advised her, at 117 if you please, to give up smoking & drinking port. This typifies the ridiculous thought patterns of these people fo at the age of 117 who would actually care if their number was up today, tomorrow or 27 days down the line? I would have thought that the government would have been delighted when she finally left us-just think how much she cost in benefits since retiring!
     More good news comes as we hear that Romania follows Poland against EU call to ban menthol & slim cigarettes. Hallelujah baby, common sense prevails once again. Why single out menthol fags? Any ideas out there? Why single out slim cigarettes unless this is a direct attack on female smokers. The Poles objected because it costed their economy too much..... one day, just one day our government will actually sit back and count the costs to this country. £34bn if anyones interested! £34bn that could have easily been diverted to our ailing, failing NHS where doctors & nurses are ever increasingly put under more and more pressure by desk jockeys on ramped up wages that serve very little actual purpose in our hospitals. But we will founder on until the inevitable happens-BANKRUPTCY.
 
We started with a bit of Abbott & Costello, minus the Costello bit of course, and we'll finish with a bit of comedy that would have done the pair proud-except that this really does show the depths to which the people of this country have plummeted.
 
Whistling Kevin Gifford

Dad-of-three Kevin Gifford loved to liven up his early-morning milk rounds with some music — until a handful of grumpy locals complained. Kevin, 52, delivers to 340 houses a day in several districts of Leicester. He says only five people in the posher areas complained — and four of them were not even customers. Doesn't that totally sum up what a cheerless, intolerant nation of sourpusses we've become sinec the 'do-gooders' gained a foothold in the early 70's. No one is supposed to be happy in their work anymore, well obviously not Kevin as he got a warning from his bosses for 'disturbing the peace' (apparently). 
     A pint of milk a day cuts chances of heart disease and stroke These are just the sort of people that this nation DOESN'T need as, Health & Safety nutters now roam in packs, EHOs want everyone to grass everyone else up (irrespective of job losses), killjoys  (and turds like these 'infamous five') moan their little bedsocks off because someone is happy in their work. If Kirby & West would like to furnish me with the complainants addresses I'll happily deliver a 4 pinter to each house-straight through the letterbox! 
Despite all the comedy, above listed, we do have to finish on a joyous note folks! Sorry, but I'm afraid we do 
Remember a  certain seaside town that became the "Green Town"? Yep, you got it right, good old Brighton, where the only poliutical argument was whether they be Red or they be Green.
Well folks, a minor upset was caused by the good burgers of  Hanover & Elm region as this result shows!

Election Candidate Party Votes %
Emma Daniel The Labour and Co-operative Party 1396 40% Elected
David Stuart Gibson Green Party 1358 39% Not elected
Robert John Knight Conservative Party 275 8% Not elected
Patricia Ann Mountain UKIP 250 7% Not elected
Phil Clarke Trade Union and Socialists Against Cuts 172 5% Not elected
Lev Eakins Liberal Democrats 56 2% Not elected

     The Red mob have sneaked past the Green mob again in what is basically a two horse race but have a look at the 3rd & 4th places.      
     The Tories 'held' onto 3rd place by a mere 25 votes from UKIP - and this in an area where UKIP expected absolutely nothing!
     And if you look a bit further down; ie, to the very bottom, you will see that the almost now defunct ilLiberal-unDems amassed a whole 56 votes from just over 3,000 voters - good job you've got that retirement pension to look forward to Nick   
Clegg is as useless as the Abbott creature, who felt the need to bleat on endlessly about losing the PP lawmaking proposition, perhaps after the next elections, when hopefully both will be out on their ear, they can team up as the new double act:- Abbott & Clegello!

Walking back to happiness..... !

Smoking Bans KILL businesses-FACT!


     I think that it is only right that this blog is delayed and accompanies the release of this months Club Journal, the monthly edition from the CIU detailing all matters concerning our clubs and the tremendously devastating effect this ridiculous total Smoking Ban is having on our diminishing club scene.
     In this months Club Journal we feature the abysmal failure of this social engineering project which will bankrupt this country, as it is others. People may scoff at that notion but look at Eire to start with. Already skint and bailed out by the equally useless, impoverished and failing EU, Eire has become the tobacco smuggling capital of europe. Spain has seen massive bar & restaurant closures and now have their highest ever youth unemployment rate of 56.4%. Italy (40.5%) are in absolute turmoil and voted out the EU's implanted president. Greece (62.5%) have been virtually disowned by the EU as they have no way of paying off their debts, Cypriots have been legally robbed and Britain now boasts a 20.2% youth unemployment rate-yet we have happily got rid of 200,000 hospitality jobs courtesy of that which a lunatic MP declares the "health benefits" outweigh everything else!
     In the May edition of the Club Journal we had the great displeasure of having to 'listen' to the newly appointed MP for NW Durham (Mrs Pat Glass), whose vision for clubland was nothing short of derisory and far from Henry Solly's idea of a working mans resting place after a days toil. In short, I really don't know whose brainchild it was to invite this daft woman to speak but it has done the clubs absolutely no favours whatsoever!
     Pat Glass (sadly elected as an MP) dismissed the smoking ban out of hand, declaring that although many of HER constituents had moaned about the unfairness and the discriminatory nature of the ban, SHE was ignoring their pleas! So, now an MP, this woman only listens to constituents that agree with HER points of view - anyone else can 'go sing Dixie' as far as she is concerned, and this from a woman whose family is steeped in clubland. This is one of the major problems when an area is noted as a traditional Labour stronghold, for as stated in previous blogs you could dress a baboon up in red and the electorate would wake up to find they had a baboon as an MP! 

     I wrote a letter of complaint to this 'apology of an MP' asking her to lay out ALL the health benefits thus far gained from the implementation of the smoking ban. It was sent via the Club Journal actually, as was a letter from David Maclelland (ex MP), but to date I have not received a response and I doubt that David has either!
      I shall be sending a typed version of that blog piece to this deranged female asking for asking for a full response to her ridiculous claims and if there happens to be a constituent of hers reading this blog, or someone who knows of one, would they please add their weight to the request by contacting me at www.justice4smokers.co.uk - all the usual contact details are on the website.
     The other reason for sending Mrs Glass a polite request for an answer is that this months Club Journal leads with the effect of the smoking ban and includes a repetition survey of how the clubs feel about separated smoking rooms. I know for a fact that my own club would welcome the idea with open arms for their customer base has diminished rapidly over the past couple of years-I think I mentioned that I had moved up the list by something ridiculous like 300+ places yet considerably less than twenty souls had passed away over the previous twelve months! The results of the survey will be collated and certified before being related back to the CIU & Club Journal.
     Another non cohesive aspect of this atrocious law reared its ugly head as I learned of the sad demise of a dear old friend and local Pub Quiz team-mate. I was appalled that no one had told me of Sue's passing but then you see this whole crazy world has changed out of all recognition over the past 6 years! Pre-ban, smoker & non-smoker alike (usually about 40 of us) turned up on a Monday night for a 'fun quiz' in our local pub. 

 (and the first question is......?)
     Sue never smoked but it never bothered her that others did as we spent about 3 hours laughing & joking our way through fifty assorted questions (with a break in between to 'refuel' at the bar of course). Six years ago, and before then, everybody knew every one else and there was a close community cohesion as people 'looked out' for each other. If an illness was noted, best wishes for a speedy recovery were quickly sent by those more fortunate of health at the time-we were a small but caring community. Then came the smoking ban. One by one our small, caring community disappeared as the smokers couldn't cope with the extremes of weather and the quiz night finally disappeared-as did our community cohesion, nobody 'bumped into' anybody anymore as the social centre of our little community had been ripped apart. I know it makes absolutely no difference to our dearly departed Susie but there was no 'community' wreath at the funeral, there were not half the people there to pay their respects to our 'queen' of the "Royalty Questions Section" - oft included in the quiz. In fact, because of the colossal community breakdown, many people, like myself, didn't learn of her demise until AFTER the funeral-how sad is that? 
(R.I.P Sue)
     Want to see where this once great nation now figures in the 'socially happy' department (?) then simply read this damning report! Blair, MPs & anti tobacco agents, you have seriously disrupted our way of life in this country yet you have managed to do it through an abundance of lies-and I will prove that 'small fact' to you now! Now we even have a talking fag packet from the anti-tobacco loons at Stirling University. What next I ask, a watch type gizmo that buzzes you every time it's time for a drag? or Linda Bauld tells the truth?-Oops, that gizmo would never make a sound then would it!
     Several weeks ago I wrote to Deputy Dawg (Clegg) asking when the Business Department were going to take over the smoking ban as it was blatantly obvious that the ban was slaughtering our businesses in this country. The letter was forwarded to the Health Dept who, of course, sent back the bog standard crap reply. I naturally responded that it was not directed at them as I no longer wished to read the same old garbage time after time and would they direct my initial letter to the correct department. (I also copied my letter and posted to Vince Cable Esq!) Please prepare yourselves for this next bit for this is what they ( DofH )replied with:
  • reduced exposure to SHS (on average between 73% & 91% for bar workers...
  •  significant changes in attitudes and behaviour of smokers
  • a significant drop in hospital admissions for heart attacks
  • no clear adverse impact on the hospitality industry   
(Sam Darnell - MC & public Enquiries)        
Now I don't know about you but it is crystal clear to me that the Dept of Health is as about as up to date with proceedings as a Noah would be trying to build a submarine, for their reasons are absolutely ridiculous! 
  • If no smoking takes place indoors anymore then the reduction for bar workers is automatically 100%- FACT!
  • The only change in attitude is one of "Sod the pub, we'll drink & smoke at home"-FACT!
  • They have obviously not been made aware that the atrocious & fraudulent Pell study has been completely rubbished time after time and is, therefore, useless as any form of evidence.-FACT!
  • 12,000 pubs closed, more than a thousand clubs, Bingo halls, snooker halls etc closed yet, apparently, there has been "no adverse effect on the hospitality industry". They live in 'la-la-land' - FACT!  
  • The proof has just landed, via the postal service itself. I quote: The information given to you by my colleagues is the most up to date and accurate available, and there is nothing further I can add to this. ( so we now know that government are openly admitting that they are so far out of touch as to be basically useless. The Pell study was totally debunked with 48 hrs yet government declare as "the most up to date and accurate" when in actual fact it is absolute rubbish, totally outdated and not worth the paper it's written on!)  
  •  The second gem is as follows. I quote: The reason why your correspondence continues to be passed to the Dof H, rather than any other part of government, is that the smoking ban was a piece of legislation drafted by this department, and for which it is responsible. ( so there you have it folks, the Health Dept knows s-b-a about businesses but they are in charge of watching at least 26 businesses become extinct every week because they drafted a law which is killing those businesses and those businesses are dying because the law was drafted by a load of numpties who know nor care a jot about businesses. Nero is fiddling again whilst Rome Britain burns-oh joy!)
 I fully expect this next, equally ludicrous claim from Linda Bauld, that smoking kills one baby everyday! This highly overpaid pillock just loves to bash out headline grabbing statements that have little substance. The wordage includes SIDS - but we've already dismissed her idiotic claims re any causation of SIDS, for then it would not be determined as  a Sudden Infant Death Syndrome mortality would it!
 
     (Just another highly overpaid Scottish baby killer/fantacist!)
     In fact, what the above response does indicate is that the Health Department have very little idea of what the truth actually is regarding the smoking ban, the effects of or the costs of! Don't you find that rather sad when we live in a country where its government basically has no idea of the unrest it is causing? Mind you, how could they when the man who requested the 'honour' of talking to the 'man on the street' ignored every request for that audience from the get go?
     The problems facing this country are now many fold and yesterdays disgraceful performance by our once highly respected police force are a prime example of all that is wrong. Now don't get me wrong here for I have nothing against our Asian friends, excepting the lunatic brigade of course. In actual fact I have many Asian friends who would agree with me on this matter, for stopping this charity walk yesterday because two 'prominent' media persons were to walk past a mosque and enter Tower Hamlets was an indictment of just how far and how fast this country is sinking!  
     Whoever the 'senior' policewoman is/was (hopefully she has been demoted already), she has proved that she is/was not worthy of the position she holds/held for all she has done is to amplify the Muslims call for Sharia Law in Tower Hamlets-which is part of London and also part of this once great nation! We live here, Sharia Law has no part in our society and if these people wish to mete out punishments in accordance with that law then they need to be removed from this country forthwith and returned to a country where they can 'Sharia the night away' to their hearts content! I know nothing much about the English Defence League..... except that they seem to be the only ones defending our country against these islamic lunatics. I think the Lee Rigby case amplifies exactly why we don't need any of this  religious fanaticism here! The farcical thing about these arrests is that the police stopped Tommy Robinson & Kevin Carroll from completing their charity walk yet have charged them with obstructing the police! You simply could not make this up for a Hans Christian Anderson fairytale.

I only hope that the SKY NEWS video is produced in court and not the disgraceful BBC version!
     In yet another bizarre twist from the anti-tobacco brigade, a supposedly erudite person from north of the border has come up with this absolute gem!

LEGAL experts last night blasted a sheriff’s ‘nanny state’ meddling — after Scott Pattison ruled a mum was risking her kids’ lives by SMOKING.

     I'll bet that the likes of Arnott or Duffy are now orgasmic after this totally idiotic statement for this opens the door to virtually any ruling about anything that could harm us - back to Mr American Loonytoons again!

     You see folks, what this idiot, who presides over the Ayr district, has done is opened the floodgates to 'child abuse' cases-and also-millions of these cases for everytime a car drives past a child there is obviously a case to answer!
 

(Every motorist who drives past one of these should now be charged with child abuse)
When you have people like Scott Pattison in charge of civil duties and people's welfare (as he obviously thinks he is) then there is little hope for people in Scotland-the country probably would be better off separated from England and attached to the "SS EU Titanic" for there are plenty of 'airheads' in Brussels to join this one, from where I'm sitting!
     Talking of the EU, doesn't it just about sum things up when a pencil museum in Cumbria gets more visitors than the EU's flambouyant structures? I mean , for God's sake-pencils..... but then again we are talking the EU self destruct module being up against such useful items as pencils!  And just to prove how deluded the EU are in their tinking and their ideas of progress, you need to read this little (gem) piece from our good friend Roger Helmers blog regarding auto emissions,as yet again an obvious truth rears its ugly head and slaps this ridiculous bunch of self serving prats on the head!
     It is obvious that the one thing that has disappeared from this country is good old COMMON SENSE, so to my mind it is probably just as well that the emerging party has that in abundance! At least with the 'foraging Faragers' hot on the trail it has slowed down the descent into oblivion for this country and you never know folks, if enough people finally see the light then we may indeed start 'walking back to happiness', especially when we SAVE £53,000,000 per day!
