MORE GOVERNMENT STUPIDITY

A PERSPECTIVE ON SCHOOLS.

The announcement of a proposed PFI funded school in Lowton gives a perspective of what is wrong with this governments attitude to education (and everything else)
They seem to think that buildings are at the heart of education and everything else, paid for by PFI of course thus sadddling the taxpayers with debts for years to come.

A LITTLE STORY OF MY EDUCATION.

I started school in 1944 and learnt to write on a slate. We had to make a piece of chalk last a week and then we could have a book (cut in half) and a pencil. There was no school secretary or phone but if we misbehaved we were caned, as I was. We sat facing the teacher and had to pay attention.

There was a small playground but we had a football field by the council tip, the "mucky alley" as we called it. Health and safety would have had a fit nowadays but we came to no harm.

By the age of 7 we all knew our tables and by nine knew fractions and decimals. Everybody could read.
Technical drawing was taught at age eleven and started quite a few on their career as draughtsmen and engineers.
I later went to Grammar School and had lessons in (horror) asbestos huts which were so cold that we wore our coats in lessons. It was only later that we moved to new premises.

If buildings had a significant effect all my fellow pupils at primary school and grammar school would have been failures.

Instead they progressed to jobs as tradesmen,engineers, the professions and several becoming university lecturers.
In spite of the admittedly poor classrooms all made the best of themselves, and kept on the right side of the law.

I often meet fellow pupils who benefited from these methods in these spartan conditions and they are well rounded successful retired people.

My experiences have left me believing that it is not the buildings, but the teachers and the school system which are important, and that modern teaching methods are to blame for the shocking deterioration of educational standards.

The only solution this government has is to throw money at the problem and allow private firms to make a huge profit, to be paid back by mortgaging our children's future. The same goes for the NHS.
So in my opinion new "Super Schools" are not the answer. Proper teaching and discipline is.

BTW I was not a model pupil and was often punished for my transgressions and was once told by the Head that "your trouble is that you are agin the government"

I STILL AM.

THE SUPPORTERS OF FASCISM

I have taken this picture from Martin Wingfield's blog. Sorry Martin. I know I have used Tony Ward's picture on a previous blog but this illustrates the point better. As you see the people named at the side are all supporters of the so called Unite against Fascism (UAF) who perpetrated this hammer attack on a person for the only reason that he had a different point of view.

Peter Hain is well known to be a crook and lied over his expenses as well as supporting violence against his opponents in the past.

Keith Vaz is well known as a shady character and friendly with people of dubious repute.

Diane Abbott, the well known Lefty socialist had no hesitation in sending her son to private school in spite of campaigning against private education for others (hypocrit)

David Cameron, surprisingly supports this communist led violent pressure group whose aims bear no relation to his Tory Party of privelidge.
I have e mailed the local senior Tory Cllr Mike Winstanley to get his party to disassociate himself from this violent Trotskyite group but have as yet had no reply.

So there you have it. A group of MPs of little integrity giving support to a group which violently attacks people with whom they disagree.

AND THEY CALL US FASCISTS!

Come on Dave. You are the least odious of this squalid group.

SAY IT PUBLICLY that you are against these thugs OR WE WILL USE IT AGAINST YOU AT EVERY OPPORTUNITY.

We don't expect the others to do so, they are too deep in the sleazy mire,but we hope you will show a little integrity.

THE GLOVES ARE OFF

THE SACRIFICE OF OUR YOUNG LADS

The shambles in Afganistan continues with more of our young lads being killed each day. I can't bear to watch it on TV.
The government says it is important and protecting us from terrorism and we have to expect some casualties in a war.

WE SHOULD NOT BE THERE.
If they think it so important they should send their own sons to risk their lives with inadequate equipment. The amount spent on MPs expenses, if spent on equipment would have saved many lives.

There is no strategy of what to do in future. The Afgan government is corrupt and probably in league with Al Qaida. When we leave chaos will return.
WHAT A WASTE OF GOOD YOUNG LIVES.

The Afgans do not want us in their country. I don't blame them. We would not want a foreign army in our country.
Any terrorist threat to us is caused by two things.

Our presence in their country and Muslims in this country.
The obvious answer. Bring our troops home and send all muslim extremists back.

If there were no muslims here there would be no muslim terrorists. Surely that is obvious.
So for a failed multicultural experiment which was foisted on our people our soldiers die, we are put in danger of terrorism here and innocent Afgans die.

Will these politicians never learn.

BNP policy.

If we were in power all our soldiers would be brought home as soon as possible,(starting tomorrow) and we would cease to interfere with other countries systems of government.

WE ARE NOT THE WORLD'S POLICEMAN!

NICK ON THE ANDREW MARR SHOW

Nick Griffin's first interview on the Andrew Marr show was excellent.
Nick answered the questions easily and refuted many of the lies which are endlessly repeated in the media. He was more than a match for Marr as he is for any interviewer. You can not get behind a man who speaks the truth, a rarety among politicians.

Nick's answers were slick and a bit hurried but accurate. We only found the answer later.
I watch the Andrew Marr show every Sunday and enjoy the newspaper reviews. This time they seemed to go on endlessly discussing important topics such as Michael Jackson, lasting twice as long as usual.
It was only this afternoon I found out why.

The BBC felt bound to give Nick a platform but did not want it to last too long which would have enabled him to state more of our policies which would have resonated with viewers and gained us support.
Thus the BBC adhered to its word in name but shortened it to reduce its impact.
Nevertheless the interview will enrage the thugs of the far left. It was worth it just for that.
More importantly it will have shown Nick as an intelligent man of integrity and will have gained us many friends in spite of the shortness of the interview.

For those who missed it the link is below.

JUDGE A MAN BY HIS FRIENDS

The picture of Gordon Brown shaking hands with Colonel Gadaffi, a man formerly labelled by the British Government as supporting terrorism shows what a hypocrit Brown is. makes you feel like throwing up, doesn't it?

Remember Gadaffi was implicated in the murder of PC Yvonne Fletcher in London in the Eighties and also the Lockerbie bombings.
Brown's other "friends" include IRA terrorists Gerry Adams and Martin Mc Guinness as well as the ruler of China who imposes his will on innocent Tibetans.

It seems he will shake hands and talk with anyone however evil with one exception--an elected member of the BNP.

Labour Tories etc will not even speak to BNP elected members. Not very democratic is it? Do our votes not count ? The people we elected have a right and duty to represent our views.
Why is this denied?

It shows how far the governing classes have strayed from democratic principles when they refuse to debate with us. They MUST be hiding something. They speak to tyrants and murderers.

But then they, the two main parties are complicit in the murder of innocent Iraqis and Afgans as well as our soldiers involved in this illegal war. They then villify us for saying we don't want people displaced by their warlike actions coming here as we are full up, and will not speak to us.

They are no better than the Mafia with their "Omerta" code of silence.
Wealthy controlling murderers controlling our land.
We are out to expose them and bring them to justice, AND THAT IS WHAT THEY FEAR.
AND--

WE WILL. THEY WILL NEVER STOP US.
WE WILL PREVAIL.

ASHTON-IN-MAKERFIELD COUNCILLOR NIGEL ASH SPITS HIS DUMMY OUT

"Not in my name"
Cllr. Nigel Ash


It seems that this local councillor for Ashton-in-Makerfield has a real bee in his bonnet when it comes to the British National Party.

I stumbled across his blog just after the European elections when he was throwing a real strop with the return of two British National Party MEP's. After chucking away his rattle and spitting out his dummy he wrote "not in my name" they're not! (Check out his earlier posts.)

Well he's posted another spat at the British National Party with his latest post on his lame Blog.

It is quite obvious that this chap is a strong supporter of the hammer wielding fascist criminals at HopeNotHate.

Why not pop over to his blog http://nigelash.blogspot.com/ and have a look at what he has to say!

NORTH WEST REGIONAL MEETING IN WIGAN

Officials and members from the NW region gathered last night for the first organisers meeting since the Euro Elections. The mood was of course boyant especially when our Chairman Nick Griffin walked in. I was surprised to see him.

How he does it I do not know, in Brussels in the morning and at our meeting in Wigan in the evening. He has tremendous energy and it shows his devotion to our region that he managed to make the meeting.

The picture below was taken from Martin Wingfield's blog (sorry Martin) and it shows a small section of those present with not everybody being able to find room at the large circle of tables round the room. Nick explained some of his experiences in Brussels and this was followed by the appointment of new officers for the party (including my wife) who was appointed as NW regional fundholder.
This meant that I had to take a back seat while she sat at the main table. I hope she will talk to me in future.

Seriously I think she will be good after a few lessons of what is expected, as she is a stickler for detail.
Organisers were appointed for new areas as we still have areas which are not adequately covered.

Arrangements were made for closer co operation between groups and branches as we are now in a much larger league and we have to move fast to catch up.

We have great plans for the General Election and candidates are being sought and picked.
The other parties will not know what has hit them come the election.
The meeting lasted 3 hours including a short break and many continued discussing details until nearly midnight.

What a difference a couple of years makes when a small back room in a pub would have been sufficient, we really are growing fast, much of it due to Clive Jefferson whose dedication and push as helped us so much, in spite of the worst that our enemies can throw at us.

These get togethers always leave me elated. It's nice to keep in touch with old friends, exchange experiences and become motivated to overcome the hurdles the undemocratic antics of those against us.

WE ARE GOING PLACES!
