Cameron damned by faint praise!

There is an excruciatingly awful article in something called the Comment Section of the Conservative Home Blog today, by somebody called Phil Goodman, it has paragraph after paragraph extolling the virtues of our lying Prime Minister (can he and Osborne keep the facts concealed over the EFSF as the 2nd May anniversary nears and Greece defaults, one wonders) but it ends with this final sentence with which the author clearly confesses that all written before is just so much hot air:

But if AV falls, Cameron isn't short of time to improve his relationship with his Party over time: after all, he has a full five year term, if the Government lasts.

I have written on the BBC and the Tory lies on Ironies Too this afternoon, linked here. Also in CH comments Ruth Lea again pleas for an EU Referendum, has she not noticed there are no Tories left at Conservative Home, they are out, as will soon be their Government!

Happy Birthday to Norman Tebbit

Richard Littlejohn in the Daily Mail, says it all really, a sample:

Had history taken a different turn, this would still be a proper country. If the IRA hadn’t blown up the Grand Hotel in Brighton, crippling Tebbit’s wife Margaret, he would have succeeded the Iron Lady and Britain today would be a proud, independent nation, not a two-bob Ruritanian province of Brussels.

How can Government Spending Cuts hinder Volunteering?

There was an extraordinary item kicking off BBC Radio 4 news bulletins early this morning. Reuters reports it rather differently here.

This Headless woman, who was interviewed on the Today radio programme, seems to have no concept as to what a volunteer actually is!  Her (so-called Charity, note the giveaway EU flag on their website) would seem an ideal target for having her complete ignorance of what she purports to promote publicly, namely volunteering, fully exposed.

According to the Articles of Association (read here in PDF) of the supposed charity, their accounts must be supplied within two months of receipt of a request upon payment of their costs.  Members seem due a whole string of potential benefits while restricting their liabilty to £1, somebody with time on their hands or a professional journalist's job might wish to look further into this outfit.

Update 9/2/11 Fake Charities blog covers this particular con and also carries this telling quote from Guido:

A charity that relies in the main part on taxes is no more a charity than a prostitute is your girlfriend.

Cameron at Davos - Lists why the UK should quit the EU!

Here is a section the British Prime Minister's speech of this morning:

Now, there are some who say that slow-growth status for Europe is inevitable.
They are the pessimists – and this is their charter.

• One – we in Europe are incapable of solving our debt and deficit problems.
• Two – we’re unable to compete with dynamic economies because we’ll always be over-burdened with regulation and bureaucracy.
• Three – we’re hardwired to be consumers and not producers.
• And four – we’re attached to liberal values that are leaving us far behind the juggernaut of authoritarian capitalism.

Today, I want to make the case for optimism – for confidence in our future. We can overcome these problems but we do need a change of direction. Huge deficits don’t just fall out of the sky.

There is absolutely zero chance of the EUabandoning any of those four quoted reasons which will continue to lead to poverty for all Europeans in a non-democratic authoritarian nightmare. Yet late in his speech Cameron states:

But above all what we urgently need in Europe is an aggressive, pan-continental drive to unleash enterprise.

Cameron knows he will never get that, indeed he was elected to lead his party precisely because he assured his party members that he accepted that fact and PROMISED a referendum, the end result of which would have been a certain UK exit from the bureaucratic nightmare the EU has become.

As the world economy falls to pieces, why should the UK seek its own way out when tied to this non-democratic juggernaut while ignoring older friends across the world? At least President Sarkozy's speech the day before (video on Ironies Too) addressed the real issues!

"Dare I say it?" Not if you are a real leader!

David Cameron was at his slippery slimiest best on the Andrew Marr show yesterday, read the transcript from here. One phrase in particual makes absolutely plain that he is completely clueless about the purpose and point of the Prime Ministerial office he supposedly fills, it was this:

Now there is a lot of room for local authorities to share back office costs, to cut out bureaucracy, to stop waste, to stop doing some things that weren't adding value. All organisations have to do that. Dare I say it, even the BBC has to do it.


A dowager duchess at a select dinner party might preface a sentence with "Dare I say it" a Prime Minister, responsible for the governance of a nation can only appear as an effete and useless fop when using such a phrase.

Bernard Ingham wrote on Heseltine's 1986 resignation from the Cabinet earlier this week in the Yorkshire Post, linked here. Those who like me believe that the whole Heseltine saga is all part of a wider EU plot, and that the former Tarzan's huge elevation by Cameron has the potential to collapse the entire coalition should read the article in full. Others may rest content with Thatcher's former Press Sectretary's concluding paragraphs, quoted here:

So what was it all about? Did the flamboyant Heseltine spontaneously combust with frustration? Did he calculate that Thatcher was so weak – or could be so weakened after the "leak"– that she could be toppled just when the economy was coming right? Or, with an eye to the future, was he seeking martyrdom on the cross of Europe by an overbearing PM who "denied free discussion"?

These are nice questions. Tarzan, as he was called, is more complex than he looks. He cannot evade the charge of premeditation because he managed to cobble together a 20-minute 2,500-word press statement soon after his resignation. And who was instrumental eventually in bringing Thatcher down? Why, Heseltine at the prompting of another Eurofanatic, Sir Geoffrey Howe. And what was then the issue? Why, Europe – just like the Westland affair.

Cameron beware, lumbered as you are with a mainly Eurosceptic Conservative Party and Europhile Liberal Democrats. Europe haunted Thatcher and Major and tore at New Labour. It will try to sink its teeth into you, too. It dogs all governments.

Cameron's puppeteer finally comes out

The Wall Street Journal covers the emergence of Michael Heseltine from the shadows, read here.

Ever since the vapid, two-faced shyster Cameron emerged into the limelight of the upper echelons of the treacherous Tory party it was perfectly obvious that somebody far more senior and well-connected within Europe must be pulling his strings. This blog has hinted long and often that it was none other than the man who unseated Maggie Thatcher and took the reins from the traitor Edward Heath in driving our democracy to destruction. Three images show Heseltine's true colours, here with Blair and Clarke for Open Europe, here with his puppet and presently PM and here most fittingly dressed up as a soldier!

I emphasise the significance of the latter picture as only those of us who suffered the misfortune of being educated indoctrinated for any time in the boarding schools of Britain's public school system will recognise that the most sadistic and worthless of our contempories tended to rise to the upper ranks of their often compulsory cadet forces! The actual image of Heseltine, complete with swagger stick, that I recall as being so typical I cannot trace this morning but I will place it here if I come across it.

So the Conservative Party must this morning accept that it has been completely duped. Happily next Tuesday the perty can kick out the EU Bill sending Cameron and Heseltine to oblivion shortly thereafter, if they fail so to do than the voters of Oldham can show their own disgust accordingly.

Cameron's private hopes for LibDem victory

Such is the headline to an FT report just filed from George Parker in Oldham. He claims that in spite of the Tories having been only 2,500 votes behind the victorious and lying Labour candidate Phil Woolas at the May 2010 General Election, Cameron and his aides are privately hoping for a morale boosting victory by the LibDem candidate next Thursday.

Now there's a thing, a Tory PM and party leader hoping to be defeated by a LibDem!

David Cameron should pay his £300,000 inheritance windfall back to the taxpayers!

The Daily Mail reports that Britain's Prime Minister has received a tax free inheritance of three hundred thousand pounds. Read the full report from here.

On this blog on 10th February 2010 the fact that Cameron had manipulated his mortgages seemingly to optimize his MP expense claims, again as reported by the Daily Mail, linked here, was commented upon by this blog, read here.

It was only recently, on 12th November 2010, that this blog noted Cameron's father had been in receipt of a  typical annual payment from the EU for £247,000.

As the money forming this inheritance comes via his father, would it not seem reasonable in view of the many payments received by the pair from the public purse, for the Prime Minister to transfer this £300,000 back to the treasury to ease the austerity which Cameron claims we must all collectively suffer?

Tories not trying in Oldham?

Fifa exposes all Cameron's flaws and frailties!

The failed bid by England for the football world cup enthusiastically backed by David Cameron who ludicrously travelled backwards and forwards to Zurich for this well deserved trashing either side of PMQ when he made the following, now quite hilarious, assertions:

Q2. [27559] Caroline Dinenage (Gosport) (Con): The Prime Minister explained how he is shuttling between London and Zurich in support of England's World cup bid. Can he update the House on how that bid is progressing, please?
The Prime Minister: I am grateful for that question. England 2018 has a very strong bid. With regard to the technical aspects, we have the stadiums, the facilities and the transport networks. We have the enthusiasm in our country for football and we can put on an absolutely first-class World cup. I know that many people will ask, "Are you spending too much time on something that might not succeed?" I would say, "If you don't get on to the pitch, you have no chance of winning." We should all get behind the bid.

Arrogance is the hallmark of the statement and the resultant total failure, behind it also lies obvious lack of proper planning, inability to realistically appraise the opportunities for succes (England, after all, gained only one outside vote), failure to gain the necessary intelligence on those upon whose votes your success depended and finally a complete ignorance of reality even at the moment immediately ahead of your certain humiliation.

It is on this same basis that Cameron and his small clique of big-headed bullies now govern the country and run the economy, only blind idiots could be so unaware of the nation's truly crippled financial straits that they would feel able to throw away billions of pounds in wasted aid to Ireland at such a point of history.

Welcome back for The Slog

Read "Our most pressing skills shortage is at Conservative HQ" from here.

Twenty years to the day since Maggie Thatcher resigned and the Euro is doomed!

Some apparent co-incidences are too sweet not to be flavoured in full! Read Charles Moore in the Daily Telegraph this morning, linked here, then Fraser Nelson, "The death knell for the Euro" from the Spectator linked here.

Unhappily Cameron and Osborne continue the Tory treachery that brought Maggie Thatcher down, how long before Conservatives finally awake from their sleepwalk and kick such traitors from office?

Cameron's father-in-law took £247,000 from the EU last year!

If you are one of the many Conservative voters who have been wondering why, in spite of all his euro-sceptic rhetoric down the years, David Cameron once becoming PM has suddenly become a complete poodle to the corrupt and non-democratic EU, then the fact revealed on Channel 4 Dispatches programme last evening, view here, that his wife's dad got almost a quarter of a million quid from the organisation might provide a clue.

If you think the PM's perks and salary make such considerations irrelevant, consider this was for one single year, the payments have been continuing for years and are likely to do so stretching into the distant future long after the Coalition is booted from office!

Other details involve £130,000 for Prince Charles, Mandelsons continuing payments, and Clegg's EU expenses Brussels property gains. Watch it in full, the programme merely scratches the surface of the monster Europe has created in its midst.

Continuing corruption within Cameron's Conservative Party

Peter Oborne has a good article in the Daily Telegraph this morning, linked here.

The title is "Our Parliament is rotten to the core" which is true but now of little importance as William Hague yesterday introduced a so-called Sovereignty Bill, read here, which in common with so much else that surrounds the EU actually achieves the reverse of what it purports to intend by handing the decision to transfer the last remaining shreds of sovereignty into the hands of one single minister.

"Our Parliament" is actually the European Parliament now Mr Oborne, that has been rotten since its inception as is recognised across Europe, it also has no power to legislate on any important issue, a fact now duplicated in Westminster. These two places are solely means of rewarding the filth who sold out our democracy on an ongoing basis and for their party successors!

Harriers versus Tornadoes

The debate on jet fighters on Radio 4 this morning was interesting. It may be heard from here.

My grandfather transferred from the Royal Navy flying seaplanes over the Channel during the Great War, to become an early officer in the newly formed RAF so I have taken more than a passing interest in the long ongoing debate on the question of naval air power and the need for carrier borne fighter aircraft.

In this post colonial age it appears to me the Falkland Islands would be the only remaining British dependency economically worthwhile defending with carrier borne aircraft, yet the huge investment to construct the RAF Mount Pleasant airfield was surely justified against the costs of constant aircraft carrier patrols in the South Atlantic.

Recent drilling off the Falklands should now allow more detailed cost/risk analysis to be compared with potential hydrocarbon rewards, but given the history the arguments put forward by Lord West seem less than sound, could we really have sent a two carrier force to the South Atlantic during the past decade?

Yet the arguments put forward by the Lib/Dem Arms Minister during the broadcast seem equally shaky. Nato will be defeated in Afghanistan because you cannot tell an Afghani tribesman from a member of the Taliban and in the end the Afghanis always win at Home. To base our entire air defence policy on the fact that the Tornadoes are more practicable in Afghanistan when the PM has already hinted at a British run down there next year seems absurd.

On balance therefore I must come down against the direction of the career move made by my Grandfather and support the Ark Royal/Harrier argument, such a view being strengthened by the report in the Telegraph this morning that the catapault system for the new carriers will only come at horrendous cost, declaring Force Majeure or malintent on those contracts seems the most sensible course.

Cameron gives UK Assent to Lisbon II Treaty

Cameron gives UK Assent to Lisbon II Treaty

CNBC TV is reporting that Cameron has conceded the principle that there will be an amendment to the Lisbon Treaty which must mean he has backtracked on every promise and statement he has made on the EU since becoming Conservative Party Leader, there can be no other interpretation of his actions.

David Cameron, as long predicted on my blog Teetering Tories, ever since the day he became the most likely leader of the Conservative Party, has thus totally betrayed Britain and particularly all those who voted for him and his party.
