West Cumberland Farmers Support the Enemy

West Cumberland Farmers (no link, they don’t appear to be on t’interweb) started life way back as a kind of farmers cooperative, selling agricultural feed, machinery, seed and so on.  I think they are just an ordinary limited company now.  I remember visits to the Cockermouth depot as a nipper to collect various bags of feed or items for the farm as a kind of special trip out.  The main retail area was full of all sorts of items of wonder to a wee lad, and whilst Father would stand talking bollocks for hours on end to anyone foolish enough to get cornered I would explore this wonderland.  The best bit would be a visit to the warehouse to collect bags of feed, for in there would be the cats.  Cats were there to keep the mice at bay, but let’s be honest they were as much the pets of the staff as anything.  Whilst Father talked his bollocks I would tickle the nearest cats and watch forklifts buzz about doing their work.  Smashing.  Times have changed and not so many people buy bags of feed, it’s all bulk loaded into hoppers on the farm.  Cats are no longer in favour as rodent destroyers, swapped for blocks of green corn.  Not quite the same.  The shop itself is now more a horse and pets retail outlet, how dull.
To the point however, recently I discovered that the local store is carrying a brand of bird seed which carries the face of arch twat Bill Oddie.  WTF!
This would be the same vile bastard who hates farmers and followers of country sports in the way that only someone with complete ignorance of how the countryside works could.  The same vile twat who films on a farm with an excellent shoot, a shoot who’s diligence in controlling predatory corvids and ground vermin ensures such a rich variety of birdlife for Oddie to enthuse over, and yet never mentions the reason why this birdlife can exist.  The same horrible little bastard who is apparently a patron of the League Against Cruel Sports.
Why on Earth is “The West” selling this bastard’s product and therefore lining the pockets of the enemy?  I tried to have a go at the chap in charge but I think my comments went completely over his head somehow.

Adam Hart-Davis

I used to like Adam Hart-Davis.  I did.  His historical shows were entertaining and engaging, I especially used to like the one where he bimbled about the place on a Brompton style bicycle.  “What a charming eccentric” I would think.
No more.
Now I hate the bastard with a burning hatred.  That burns.  With hatred.
Why so?  Hart-Davis is now The Enemy.  The Man no less.
By accepting the shilling of the State he has become worse than scum, complicit in the demands of money with menace he dwells in that particular hell reserved for tax collectors.  Tax collectors have been hated throughout history and just having an eccentric manner does not absolve you from its taint.  Bastard.
Tax Doesn’t Have to be Taxing?
Go fuck yourself scum.

Fred Drops Out

So Fred Thompson has dropped out of the race for the White House.  Bugger.
Can’t say I’m too suprised though, not because of the poor ratings but because of the fact he just couldn’t be arsed.

Today I have withdrawn my candidacy for President of the United States. I hope that my country and my party have benefited from our having made this effort. Jeri and I will always be grateful for the encouragement and friendship of so many wonderful people.

That means there are no actual conservatives left in the running as far as I can see, just varying degrees of statist socialists.

Power without law, making laws means no man or his property is safe

As seen on the SAGBNI website, which looks a lot better these days, a letter to the Guardian from Elizabeth Beckett in response to an article by George Moonbat.

Grave Ignorance or Serious Deception:
“Power without law, making laws means no man or his property is safe”.

In the Guardian on January 1st, 2008 you published an article by George Monbiot entitled; “How Britain became party to a crime that may have killed a million people - “Not having a written constitution allowed Blair and his advisers to go to war without reference to parliament or the public.”

What you have stated above, the claim we that we do not have a ‘written constitution’, is misleading, since technically it means we do not have a codified constitution. Perhaps you would like to point out to us where it is not codified?

We have observed that Magna Carta, the Petition of Right, the Bill of Rights and the Act of Settlement, these are indeed codified. The claim that we do not have a written constitution is usually made in comparison of the codification of the American constitution, which is Masonic, and was made at one time. But it should be born in mind that the claim that we in Britain do not have a constitution is used as propaganda formulated against the Rights of the People and in so doing is taking us down the path of tyranny, as made clear by Tom Paine when he said ‘…the constitution was made for the people and not government’.

With reference to the right to go war in your article; in fact what Tony Blair did was he acted outside the ‘prerogative’ which is in the hands of the monarch in accordance with their Coronation Oath. Blair had not at that time, with the help of Lord Faulkener (Lord chancellor), put through the Constitutional Reform Act 2005, which is clearly against Halsbury, Jowitt (legal reference books of great prestige) and earlier, Sir Edward Cook made it plain, “The Royal Prerogative is part of the personality of the monarch and can not be taken from them even by an Act if Parliament.” The ‘prerogative power’ is lent to the monarch by the People at the coronation for the life time of the monarch!

Mr Brown is now in his governance of Britain, is trying to give the ‘prerogative’ to Parliament or the People which would mean removing the ‘prerogative’ from the protection of the monarch and the judiciary. As in the Chagos Archipelagos case, the Law Lords ruled that Parliament had already acted outside the ‘prerogative power’. Now we as a People, are in GRAVE DANGER because there will be no power to control the impartial power to protect us, against tyranny, as was set out by our ancestors as described by Lord Chatham – (Pitt the Elder). “…the genius of our ancestors” … The removal of the ‘prerogative’ is TREASON against the principles of our country which protect the People against tyranny.

For the record; we the People of Britain do indeed have a constitution and in accordance with it’s statues, the matter of going to war lies with the monarch NOT Parliament! We in Britain have a republic in which the Peoples’ power (the ‘prerogative’) is held by the monarch for their life time. Parliament does not hold that power, further more an Oath of Allegiance has to be taken by anyone who wishes to take a seat in Parliament, this incorporates the laws of our land.

Charles the 1st warned: ‘...Power without law, making laws means no man or his property is safe.” Therefore by Parliament now attempting to take over the ‘prerogative’ it is attempting to take the power from the People.’

Mr Monboit’s article shows a lack of constitutional grasp by writing as he has - by referring to a “unwritten constitution” and calling it a “gentleman’s agreement”, and by not correcting such misinformation. It is this ignorance that has been deliberately propagated amongst the people of this nation which has effectively so far, allowed Blair to act as a dictator. What Mr Monbiot has suggested in his article about the constitutional reform, is too weak and incorrect, because it clear he does not seem to realise what the government is proposing do to our enshrined laws and in so doing, you as a paper, are supporting the uprising of treasonable power.

The Fabian strategy is globalisation, Iraq and Afghanistan are merely part of this plan to which the People of Britain and other countries come a very poor second. It should be noted that Blair was head of the Fabian’s before becoming leader of the Labour party.

Last year 2007, we Britain supposedly celebrated the end of slavery which often involved the use of physical chains and forced labour, now the dynamics of the game have changed and far from been abolished there is evidence that our parliamentarians have put the people of this nation even more deeply into the slavery into the European Union with its ever mounting tyrannical laws and controls including the loss of our inalienable rights, not least Habeas Corpus.

Furthermore, there is ample evidence from government documents that Edward Heath and others committed treason in taking us as a nation into the European Union. See http://tinyurl.com/2pfmcd

We look forward to hearing from you and trust you will correct this information in your newspaper and thus provide your readers with the truth of our very real ‘written constitution’.

Yours Sincerely

Elizabeth Beckett

I believe I met Elizabeth at a political meeting with Richard North a few years back.  A formidable and forthrite woman.

Gesture Politics From Lame Duck Home Secretary

So Jaqui Smith is looking to distract from her abject uselessness by increasing restrictions on deacts.  Pre 1995 deacts are apparently easier to re-act than post.  As ever I have to point out that if you have the skills and the equipment to reactivate such a beast then making a gun from scratch is not beyond your ken.  Even a half arsed useless get like me could do it.
David Davis sensibly points out that:

Government’s own figures show that in 2005-06 there were only eight incidents where deactivated or reactivated weapons were used – just 0.04 per cent of gun offences.

So we can see that even if the new law were to magically make illegally reactivated guns disappear “from our streets” the actual impact on gun crimes would be pretty much negligable.
What a waste of fucking time and effort.
If Ms Smith wants to make an actual impact on gun crime then the Government needs to act on criminals not the tools they use.  Remove one source of tools and they will simply find another, given that drugs pour into the UK from abroad seemingly unchecked - how hard is it going to be to smuggle firearms?
Here’s how to tackle crime Ms Smith:
Arrest criminals, real criminals not just “thought criminals”. 
Succesfully prosecute them.
Lock them up, and here’s the clever bit - don’t let them out after five minutes, make them serve the full term not half of it.  Criminals in jail are not shooting people, mugging people or robbing houses.

Stop handing out caution after caution, one caution (for any offence) and the next one is prosecution.  Stop pretending that young thugs are going to magically become model citizens, the chances are incredibly slim.  Lower, yes lower, the age of criminal responsiblity.  Youngsters think they can get away with any kind of crime because of their age.  This must stop.  If you insist that under 10s should not be prosecuted, then the parents should be criminally liable.  If my dog were to bite someone then I would be held responsible, why should it be any different for children.
Marxist bleeding hearts insist that criminal behaviour is the fault of society and that scum can be shown the error of their ways, they cling to this view despite the collosal failure of this line of thinking over the past 60 years.  It is time to recognise this failure and start to attack the endemic criminality in this country.

100 New Sensible Shooters

There was a manufactured kerfuffle in the MSM recently as the GCN tried to make hay over young people being issued gun licences.  The media tried to crack on that youngsters were running amok with guns with the approval of the police.  Bollocks of course, these are people who have been assesed as safe and who will be supervised by a responsible adult appropriately licensed as required by the law.
Not to be left out our local rag picks up the story with the news that 100 youngsters in our area have been issued certificates.
No rent-a-gob quote from that witch Marshall-Andrews this time, but no doubt some harpie will write in to the letters column in protest.

Government Reaffirms It’s Breach of the Bill of Rights

A while back I added my details to an epetition requesting that handguns be allowable for self defence.

“We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to take the war to criminals by permitting law-abiding citizens to carry concealed handguns.”

Details of Petition:

“In 33 States in the US, the relegalisation of handguns has caused crime rates to fall substantially. In the UK, it should be criminals rather than citizens who walk in fear. I call upon the Prime Minister to relegalise ownership and carrying of handguns, after passing a training qualification, by any adult with no history of violence or mental instability.”

Of course there was no way on Earth that the Government was going to agree and the response was received thus:

The Government has no plans to legalise handguns. Firearms are not an acceptable means of protection in Great Britain and authority will not be granted to possess a firearm for this reason.

They should have added the words “In breach of the Constitution and contrary to the Bill of Rights”.  Not that the ruling elite recognise the Bill of Rights of course.
