I Agree With Nick But I’m Voting For Dave
In the last general election I wrote “no suitable candidate” across my ballot paper. In the European elections I voted UKIP.
Fundamentally I’m a Tory but if I became prime minister tomorrow, I’d implement the following policies on Friday:
- Withdraw our troops from Afghanistan
- Nationalise electricity, gas, water, telephone and broadband provision
- Introduce the Lib Dem’s £10,000 tax policy
- Introduce the Lib Dem’s policy on the separation of retail and investment banks
- Start a phased withdrawal from the EU retaining a free trade policy.
- Legalise all drugs. Introduce strict regulation and taxation
- Break off diplomatic relations with Israel until it ends the Gaza blockade and stops new settlements.
It is sad but true that a Lib Dem vote is a wasted vote. Not only that but it is extremely dangerous. It could result in the very worst possible outcome to this election if there is no overall majority but Labour has the most seats and Gordon Brown remains prime minister. This would be an unmitigated disaster of horrendous proportions. If this happens then I predict at least as much chaos as is happening in Greece. In fact we could well be in for riots in the streets whoever wins.
The only hope for the future, far from perfect that it will be, is a Conservative government.
Goldman Sachs – Pure Evil In Our Midst
If anyone is watching the riots in Athens and fearing for their own safety it should be Lloyd Blankfein and Fabrice Tourre of Goldman Sachs.
It’s very rare that I would advocate violence. Only in self-defence or against great evil such as the Nazis is it justified but it seems to me that here are two individuals who deserve to be dragged into the streets by a baying mob, stripped, castrated and lynched. My only doubt is that perhaps this is too good for them.
Blankfein, Goldman Sachs’ chief executive, said last week that the bank was under no obligation to advise its clients that it was also betting against the very investments it was selling them. This is unequivocal proof of the depths of venality, fraud, deception and immorality that this disgraced institution has reached. Surely these two individuals should by now be under arrest, their assets confiscated and facing long terms of imprisonment.
