Don’t say you’re English
From the Queen’s Royal Lancer’s Website:
Goodbye to my England, So long my old friend
Your days are numbered, being brought to an end
To be Scottish, Irish or Welsh that’s fine
But don’t say you’re English, that’s way out of line. (read more…)

Snippets From The Daily Mail.

It has been interesting to see the news lately explaining the cost of Immigration. The BBC covered in its news Wednesday 30th January, the increased cost of migrant maternity per year and that was quoted as £390million. Kent’s chief constable Mike Fuller says migrant crime has cost the Police Force in Kent £34 million over the last three years. Then, not quoted in the news, is the cost it is having in Education and there is the cost of new homes being built everywhere in the UK.
Most people in the UK now recognise that Immigration does cost. Then why is it that so many voters still vote Tory, Labour and Lib Dem? None of these parties foretold this. UK Independence Party is the only party that would have addressed these problems. There is an old proverb that prevention is better than cure. Well UKIP was the prevention and UKIP is the only offer of a cure.
So how are we going to pay for the cost of immigration? Well, it is the rich that wanted the cheaper Labour so let the rich pay higher taxes. And while on taxation and according to the news yesterday, apparently the labour government has miss calculated the expected revenue from tax by £8 billion. So if £8 billion is needed then taxing the rich is the only fair solution that I can see. Labour cannot afford to increase the base rates, as there has already been shrinkage of available income. If anything the base rate should come down to allow the majority of working people to get by. Minimum wage needs to go up immediately too to ease the pressure on those on low income. I would also raise the threshold for when one has to start paying tax, everyone benefits and any lose of tax revenue here could be compensated at the higher tax increase say for example people earning more than £120k pay more.

Having nothing prepared I have decided to look at the news headlines in the Guardian unlimited and add a comment or two about Brown and his vision.
Yesterday in parliament Wednesday 4th July 2007
Browns constitutional changes.
In his first Commons statement Gordon Brown has proposed to “surrender or limit” his war-making powers.
(Trevor’s Comment) Excellent but too late for those in Iraq and for those of us here in the UK who are now seeing the resultant acts against our nation.
Mr Brown is also talking about a Bill of Rights setting out people’s rights and responsibilities.
(Trevor’s Comment) Will this be possible with the EU deciding on what we can say and do printed in directives after directives? And is it not time people took responsibility for their own actions instead of going down the path of blaming others and does Mr Brown accept some of the responsibility in the Iraq War!
On tackling the public feeling of disengagement with politics the government will consider lowering the voting age and allowing weekend voting in elections.
(Trevor’s Comment) I think more needs be done if he wishes to win the trust of the British people like telling the people the truth about the EU, IRAQ, and why all parties including this one wishes to invest in Nuclear Power. My colleagues here tell me it is cheaper I believe it’s more about maintaining the power in the hands of the suppliers. I guess that makes me a heretic.
Finally David Cameron, said there was a need for “real and lasting change” and “The country is too centralised, parliament is too weak, ministers don’t get straight answers and people feel shut out of decision-making.”
(Trevor’s Comment) I honestly don’t believe this man has anything genuine to offer Britain and I think if an election was held tomorrow he would only win on the fact people are sick of Labour and not because he has any merit to bring to the political table.
If people what change the choices are clear UKIP and freedom or the Lib Lab Con handover of power.
