When will the British public wake up and realise the mess our country is in?  Britain was heading for recession when Labour came to power in 1997.  The conservatives had sold everything and dragged the British female out of the kitchen to dilute the labour market, break the unions and stop a full blown recession.  Labour have continued to sell everything off and dilute the labour market with immigrants, these measures only work on a temporary basis and now we have more people than jobs.

Labour have been cooking the books for over a decade and I simply do not believe a single fact or figure that comes out of Westminster these days.  This horror story began when Blair and Brown hatched a plan to get us all borrowing.  It's hard to believe but back in 1997 the British people did not like to borrow, so they artificially inflated the value of our homes.  This was done by blocking the sale of large land banks and removing competition with reckless legislation.  And we fell for it hook, line and sinker.

Down and out of luck, Britain, Government and The Recession

Then they made things worse with their tax credits system - great for the economy but it destroyed the family.  Basically paying women to split with their husbands.  There are town and cities around this horrible island where more 50% of money spent is actually benefits or tax credits.

As for starting infrastructure programmes to create employment, Labour have been doing this very thing for years just to keep the economy going.  New hospitals and schools everywhere, but to keep their finances looking healthy they forced trusts and local authorities to borrow the funds from the private sector at twice the rates the government could have got.  Now these NHS trusts are struggling to service this debt.

The growth in our parasitic public sector is down to government simply over complicating things to create jobs.  The public sector pension is a joke but our 'Mindless Parasites' are not willing tackle this problem as it's their nest egg.  In fact 50 to 80% of your council tax goes straight into the public sector's bullet proof pension pot in some areas with local council employees awarding themselves six figure salaries.  Meanwhile the public sector steal our pensions by taxing them!

I feel no comment on the greed and corruption of our MPs as it is common knowledge, but in a little while they will have to cull the public sector of all its created jobs. I could go on forever!  Basically the fools who created this artificial boom thought it would last forever and they created an economy which was 100% dependent on perpetual growth.  Well the growth stopped suddenly and now this island's general population of narcissistic fools will pay the price, while the worlds wealthy and political elite a.k.a.  'The Bilderberg Group' (Google it) retire to some sunny country with all our money.

At what point will the spineless British public revolt?  Half of your salary (if you still have one) now goes in taxes.  We are working January to June just for Gordon and Co., and this time next year it could be as high as two thirds of your income (January to August) due to the criminal bank bailouts.  I for one have had enough!  It's time the public got their heads out of the sand.  Every moron in this land thinks they are wonderful and well informed important members of our fair society and the system will look after them.  You are living in a bubble created by your government and the media they control, we are all slaves to the fractional reserve banking system.

The British public question nothing any more.  We simply capitulate to these parasites in every aspect of our lives.  It is time we got our heads together and stopped arguing among ourselves and turned our attention to the people who cause all our problems.  'Our Government' is by far the most destructive force ever to blight this country (followed closely by the central banks).  Having checked my gripe I see I may come across as a little fed up with my fellow countrymen...  and to a point I am.  However, the British people are still fundamentally good people, but our apathy and inaction is now bordering cowardice.

Carbon trading schemes like this may be a scam and no one is entirely certain that climate change is happening in respose to anything that humans are doing but the polar ice caps are definitely meting!

There are satellite pictures that prove it; some years they make a slight recover but the general trend is that they are shrinking.

Heres one for everyone who still thinks the ice caps are melting

Well said John Robe! now how do we get the rest of the population to admit that they have been fools all their pathetic lives. I did not wake up to all this until my life fell apart. When your busy with life you just do not see it. Not until I had lost everything (Divorced, Home, Job, car etc) Did I even bother to look. Then when for the first time in my life I felt that I was outside lifes bubble and how different things looked from their. I feel we must first find a way for people to overcome their ego's as until the average person can admit to them self that they have been taken for a mug by the so called elites, we will never be able to move forward and address the problem that is our corrupt, treasnous and parasitic government are no longer in charge and Britain has been quietly conquered.

They created the climate of fear in which we no longer felt comfortable with cash in our wallet as we needed to believe that to accept more and more stringent measures. They bombed the twin towers so we would not bat an eyelid when our governments invaded a sovereign country and deposed there leader to ultimately generate massive revenue for large american oil companies such as Halliburton (owned by such wonderful people as Dick Cheney) and the banks who fund there ventures. Lets compare that to me coming into your home, smashing it to pieces taking your gold then using the gold to pay for a repair on your home and then you owe me for the repair, sound fair? Now for the recession, by accident? Not at all! These institutions are not ridiculous and mistakes are not made in the banking sector trust me (but you know in your heart that they dont) The bankers who were responsible for this mess dit it deliberately to destabilise our world economy so that they could offer us a solution to the problem which we would never have accepted had things not been so desperate. The very people who create the situation are then handed even more control by governments who have been well and truly bought.

These sound like the ravings of a madman and that is exactly what the brains of the Bilderberg group would wish you to believe for world domination is impossible if seen by the masses. This is why they meet in secrecy each year and the media they wholly own (many top media moguls are members of bilderberg and have a vested interest in secrecy) simply has a media blackout on the event. please check up everything I have said in this post and if you start to believe then you are waking up to what is happening around you and that is long overdue!!! whether you think I'm stir crazy or not is up to you the individual but in my defense the whole situation is beyond imagination or crazy and I still struggle to believe the evilness of the few. email me at johnrobe@hotmail.co.uk with your comments

I am in total agreement with this article and I believe that the only thing that can now save us all from slavery is a world revolution. Day by day more and more control is centralised by greedy opportunistic bankers and we the people simply thank them for it. When will the British public wake up and smell the coffee? I do not have to google the Bilderberg group for I already know much of their 'work'. 9/11 7/7 the global economic crisis, the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts are all the brainchild of the Bilderberg Group and greedy Bankers. Such esteemed figures as Tony Blair and HRH The Queen, Prince Charles, The president of the European Central Bank are all members of the Bilderberg Group who have been finding different ways to control and opress the population for many years in secrecy. There is documented proof which will not be publicly available that there was demolition material found in the remains of the twin towers, so aware was George Bush of this fact that he even made the comment "Let us not believe the many conspiracy theories that will arise as a result of this tragedy" Whilst stood at ground zero speaking to the worlds media, a media which they own and therefore control. I have lost any patience with politics and believe sincerely that anybody who has awakened to this travesty of modern rule should now urge those around them to do the same. Fight fire with fire, Revolution may sound extreme to many (me included) but what else do we have. Draw your money out of the banks, all of it today and place your money into a bank that is not controlled by Bilderberg or as they should be known "Illuminati" and place it into something like the co-op bank who dont endorse a global monetary system or cashless society. Its another way of your government and banks keeping you under control, making huge amounts of money out of you and tracking your every activity.

What now is to become of the school re build and refurbishment programme given that goverment spending is to be reduced in this area. PFI and PPP all supported by old tory and and the last labour goverments will die on its feet in the coming months given that the credits required from goverment will not be given to local authorities. Building industry and related sub contractors will become out of work once again. But far more important than even that....our kids are going to suffer! Some building contractors I will not miss in this area having worked with a few, however growth in all aspects whatevers being said will decline within six months.

I see stupidity still rides high with some city councils.

iPad trial at Leicester City Council sparks union anger - The council said introducing iPads could lead to £90,000 a year in savings A union has criticised Leicester City Council for considering buying iPads for its councillors - despite planning up to 1,000 job cuts.

Here's a document which will open your eyes to the truth about the nature of capitalism and the feudal state. You are all serfs!

http://goo.gl/rkuo

Whilst you all might believe that you are living in an open democratic society you are NOT! You have been hoodwinked.

An economic elite comprising less than 1% of the population is quietly taking over, and you are letting them do it. They did it before in the 18th century. It took Dickens and the Tolpuddle Martyrs partially to redress the situation.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tolpuddle_Martyrs

Who today has their bravery? Who else will stand up for iniqity?


This is not propaganda, but the truth
