Will Iran Get A Female President Henry Newman: If Rafat Bayat stands and wins, it would be a significant step forward – but it won't mean an end to the restriction of women's rights. Boggart Blogs says "One day maybe, but hell will freeze over first.

Oxford Professor Of Poetry - Should Walcott Still Be In The Frame Allegations of sexual impropriety should not prevent Derek Walcott becoming the Oxford professor of poetry says Lindsay Johns in The Guardian. One cannot help but wonder if the politically correct thought police would have been so quick to jump to the defence of a white tutor who hit on young female students?

Have the voters really turned against the main parties? Will the June elections be a turning point in British politics with the main parties losing out to Lib Dems, UKIP and fringe parties. The Party's Over

Education Alone Cannot Make People Clever Naturally the Politically Correct Thought Police were not impressed with Woodhead's thoughts. Having addled their brains with politically correct ideology though these smug twats latch on to Woodhead's saying not all children can be clever although that is completely correct. Where he went wrong... The Daily Stirrer

Top Ten acts of political corruption.Makes having the moat cleaned on public money seem tame - till you remember it was taxes screwed out of the peasants that built the castle

Bruno Westfield in The Daily Telegraph says it is time Parliament got away from sleaze and back to politics. He's right but the only way we will do that is to abolish the party whips offices and run a system where MPs first loyalty is not to party but to consituents.

Sir Roger De Coverly talks about expenses. Gerald Warner in the Telegraph with a satire on the MPs expenses scandal. Another take on the topic in From Bag O Shite to chandalier and back.

Is Education Wasted On The Not So Bright Cleverness is in the genes, and the genes are in social class, reckons Chris Woodhead in The Guardian. That will go down like a lead zeppelin with the politically correct thought police.

Lib Dem MP Sarah Treather asks What Planet were MPs livng on? MPs could have averted this expenses mess, but didn't. Now we should abolish capital gain and dissolve parliament, but we won't says Ms Treather. Surely they are not all a bunch of greedy, spineless, self serving twats are they? The Real Story Of Obama's Birth And Parentage The information linked from this Texas Darlin post describes some more bizarre twists in the convoluted story of barack Obama's birth and early life. If this sytoryline was in a soap opera viewerrs would complain it was too far fetched.

G20 recipe for a PR disaster How to alienate the punters in one easy step. Hold a conference for 20 world leaders and their retenues, a total of 500 people in all, and spend Ł500,000 on feding them for 1 day. The sad thing is while the bastards were all together in one building nobody sprayed Swine Flu virus p the air conditioning intake vents.

Banned From Britain Michael Savage, an American right wing radio host with some strident views on the Koran has been banned from entering Britain. Haven't we been here before?

Questioning The Value Of Regulation An idiotic article from a member of the American right, questioning the validity of all regulation. In a society withour regulation, he claims, people are free to be creative and advance civilisation. Hmm? In a society devoid of all regultion people are free to kill, steal, rape. The strog are free to enslave the weak and the perverts are free to exploit the vulnerable. Quite how any of that advances civilisationI'm not sure.

The Power of Youth and the winnable battle against hunger. Drew Barrymore talks sentimental bollocks about global poverty. Someone should tell these vacuous celebrities the more they try to make themselves look intelligent and well informed the more stupid they appear to real world dwellers.

So Who's Out Of Touch
Janet Daly in the Daily Telegrpah writes about the Thatcher era "when academics and intellectuals showed they were out of touch with reality." And the Prime Minister put Billy Bunter incharge of the tuck shop. So who was out of touch with reality?

National Sovereignty crisis. Texas Darlin's Dr. Kate continues to investigate Barack Obama's links with terrorist sympathisers and One World Government / New World Order nutters.

Obama's Crazy Spending Spree
I can only conclude money is going out of fashion. Governments around the world are spending it as if it is.
Obama and Gordon Brown are both talking of employing people to shovel money into a fiery pit and now I hear Sarkozy wants, as the legacy of his Presidency, to turn the centre of Paris into something rivalling the glory of ancient Rome, Athens and Jerusalem.
It must be a vanilty project and seems rather superfluous. Paris already has many beautiful buildings, green spaces and the sewers are the equal of any in the ancient world.
America's Shortage Of Doctors
America faces an acute shortage of primary care doctors. How will the Obama administration address it. by recruiting British doctors of course.
The Left Unites, but on the wrong issue
Labour's left has united against the BNP. It's a pity the nauseatingly PC Labour left are the reason many traditional Labour voters in some areas are thinking of voting BNP. Being lectured by smug, middle class gits is certaint to alienate the working class while they identify the BNP as having a lot in common with them. Labour's Losers are looking a hammering in the European Elections next month.

Disrobing the Emperor:
The online “user experience” isn't much of one
Now that the Web labor market is saturated and Web design a static profession, it's not surprising that 'user experience' designers and researchers who've spent their careers online are looking for new jobs.

Where Is Labours Vision For Schools
Melissa Benn on Labour's lastest (an d inevitably doomed) attempt to "improve" primary education standards by forcing techers to conform to yet another one - size - fits - all curriculum imposed by a centralised hierarchy.

Using Europe To Steal Our Freedom
The Labour government is alwaqys haranguining us for being unenthusiastic Europeans. We are right to be sceptical though.

Obama's "Internet Czar" seeks powers to regulate web content. For years the webheads wailed and whined about basic regulation to prevent cyber crime.

The USA is a lot closer to the action that we are in Britain. here's a very sensible look at the latest outbreak of fear and panic.

Swine Flu - a conspiracy to sell vaccine?
The problem with the healthcare industry's pushing of tamiflu vaccine as a safeguard againts the swine flu virus is the virus is know to be ineffective in many cases and have very unpleasant side effects. Add to that the number of times the industry has cried wolf before and it is no wonder some people are sceptical.
I don't want to live in a country manipulated by YouTube bullies
Laugh at Gordon Brown if you must, but save us from a world dominated by smarmy, techno-savvy politicians says Catherine bennet in The Guardian.
COMMENT:At least we are still objective enough to see and say that Godon is a munter. Over the pond when spindoctors pushed the idea michelle Obama is a great beauty and a fashion icon (she's neither) people were creepily willing to believe it.
I used to get death threats from US rabid right sites for making jokes about Bush & Co, now I get death threats from huff Post readers for making jokes about the Obamas.

The Case For A European Obesity Day

I used to get death threats from US rabid right sites for making jokes about Bush & Co, now I get death threats from huff Post readers for making jokes about the Obamas.
You Tube Bullies And Smarmy Celebrity Politicians
Celebrity politicians is perhaps the most dangerous development our vacuous pop culture has thrown up yet. Catherine Bennet asks is it better to have old, ugly world leaders who are intelligent, experienced and economically literate that smarmy new media savvy celebrity politicians like the equally vacuous Tony Blair and Barack Obama

Segregation by age and gender in schools A new study claims to have shown that segregating pupils by gender does not improve standards because it is in fact the presence of girls in the classroom that distracts boys from their studies.
Yet again, after the rest of us have know something for decades the academic community claims it as a great discovery.

Labour Fiddles Whie The Economy Burns
Labour's obsession with money. Marina Hyde explores the current crop of MP's expenses scandals and wonders why the obsession with money is the downfall of so many Labour MPs.
There is an old adage that Tory scandals are always trousers - down while Labour's a fingers-in-the-till.
in recent years Labour has moved to the right of course which is why their scandals now centre on MPs being caught with their trousers down wjile their fingers are in the till.

The Liberal Supremacists
The appelation "liberal" sems to have been hijacked in Britain, the USA and elsesewhere in the English speaking world by some very nasty authoritarians whose agenda insists there is only one way of thinking, the politically correct way. This kind od "liberalism" replaces tolerance with tyranny and on assuming power takes an authoritarian line with those who express a different point of view.
Here Terry Eagleton challenges the "one - world liberalism" of Barack Obama's Democrats, Gordon Brown and Tony Blair's New Labour project and the strident fundamentalist atheism of writers like Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens.

Contoversy In America's gayest state as Miss California speaks out against gay marriage.
Thrown a loaded question that invited her to agree with the Obot agenda Miss California spoke her mind on the topic of gay marriage.
Rather refreshing in a nation where not agreeing with the Obama agenda is considered anti - social behaviour

21 April 2009 The Judgement On Vaccines Is In - Jim Carrey
After months of delays and legalistic jiggery pokery the US court hearing test cases on the safety of MMR vaccine, very rapidly after the authoritarian, more big busines friendly than Bush, one-hundred-and-fifty percent in favour of all government meddling in private lives Obama administration the court had produced its big pharma friendly decision.
After the decison of the court early in the case that in such cases the burden of proof fell not on the complainant but on the defence in the end the judges went back on that and toied the old line paid for by big pharma that it had not been scientifically proved there was a link between the vaccine and the onset of autism.

In an article for Huffington Post comedian and parent Jim Carrey says:
With vaccines being the fastest growing division of the pharmaceutical industry, isn't it possible that profits may play a part in the decision-making? That the vaccine program is becoming more of a profit engine than a means of prevention? In a world left reeling from the catastrophic effects of greed, mismanagement and corporate insensitivity, is it so absurd for us to wonder why American children are being given twice as many vaccines on average, compared to the top 30 first world countries?

In another damning indictment of big pharma a recent report stated "It has become clear over the course of this investigation that the VRBPAC and the ACIP [the two main advisory boards that determine the vaccine schedule] are dominated by individuals with close working relationships with the vaccine producers...."

21 April 2009 Words And Deeds On Race The election of Barack Obama to the US Presidency was bound to have a negative effect on race relation all around the developed world, not just in the USA. Here The Daily Stirrer which brings you the best, most controversial opinion and comment on the web takes issue with a writer who complains that developed nations are not doing enough to preserve the cultural differences of minorities while helping them integrate. The complaint is a case of wanting to have your cake and eat it, a classic position of the race industry and the politically correct thought police.

Be Brave Chancellor, You Could Be Our Lloyd George
Polly Toynbee exhorts Alistair Darling. but this is 2009 not 1909 and Darling in no Lloyd George as most of the hundreds of comments in the thread point out.

Lies, Damned Lies and ... umm... Those Other Things ... oh yeah, statistics.
Were I able to muster the kind of blind faith Mr. Chivers and other "science" nerds place in statistics I would invest it in one of the traditional religions and at least be able to convince myself there is a chance of being resurrected into the life eternal. As it is, unlike Science fans who proclaim their atheism but have a zealots faith in science, I am a true sceptic...

Children Given Chemical Cosh For Fictitious Disease

Critics of the Ritalin disaster which saw many lived ruined by the prescription of 'bonkers' drug Ritalin for "ADHD" are now getting support from an unexpected quarter. The German weekly Der Spiegel quoted in its cover story on 2 February 2012 the US American psychiatrist Leon Eisenberg, born in 1922 as the son of Russian Jewish immigrants, who was the “scientific father of ADHD” and who said at...

Looming Health Crisis: Wireless Technology and the Toxification of America

A major health crisis looms that is only hastened through the extensive deployment of “smart grid” technology.

Scientific Dictatorship: The Total Surveillance Society Is Coming Soon.
Just because you're paranoid, it does not mean they are not watching you. The totall surveillance society is spreading as fast as your freedom is disappearing. CCTV, Drones, Google data snooping, giant databases, everything you do is monitored and logged.

War On Terror, War On Drugs, Jihad Against Junk Food
why have the elite taken against 'junk food' a concept for which their is no accepted definition. Well there has been talk of a tax on fatty foods but that went quiet when it was pointed out pate de fois gras, Chateaubriand, Steak Diane and other gourmet treats were very fatty.

Monsanto Owns The Life Reproducing Process Says U S CourtPoliticised Judges show bias in finding for the Corporate giant and helping advance its agenda to control the food supply. This is the corporation that wants to make sure nobody ever eats ant product, plant or animal, that is not genertically modified. And the shits who have hijecked our societies, the politicians, lawyers, bankers and scientists are happy to sell us out to these fascists and help create their Brave New World.

Eat Insectes, good food is only for elitists says United Nations

Very survivalist, very Soylent Green. The scientific advisers of that hotbed of elitism where the politicians, international lawyers, bankers and top academics, the U N (United Nazis) has been thinking about the incipient food crisis. And they say the food shopping list of all us ordinary punters in future will include Bread, Milk, Grubs, Beetles, Maggots, Locusts, Worms and Spiders.

The Jihad On Junk Food
You must have grown tired of all the wars governments are fighting. Not shooting wars (although the war on terror is war on an abstract concept) but war on smoking, war on drugs, war on crime, war on anti - social behaviour and the one they will never win, the war on alcohol. Government's must have grown tired too, or maybe

Lies, Damned Lies, Statistics and Science Tom Chivers, a british journalist who blogs for The Daily telegraph wrote today, "Depressing: just nine per cent of Britons trust stats over our own experience (though most of us won't believe that)" Now Tom is a member of that bizarrre religious cult we should all strive to help people escape, the Scienceology cult.

Making Money Out Of Misery You may not have borrowed money yourself but you know how the business works, you take out a loan, say £$€1000 (pick your own currency) to buy a car, improve your home or for a host of reasons, and you agree to pay back over a fixed term the amount borrowed plus interest because the lender has costs and deserves a modest profit for accepting you as a risk. You might expect to pay back in total ...

In A Sane World This Should End The Vaccine Scam - but The Lies and Legalised Murder Will Continue.
Educated parents can either get their children out of harm’s way or continue living inside one of the largest most evil lies in history, that vaccines – full of heavy metals, viral diseases, mycoplasma, fecal material, DNA fragments from other species, formaldehyde, polysorbate 80 (a sterilizing agent)are not a miracle of modern medicine but a means of stealing taxpayers money.

A Terrible Winter For Bees Threatens Food Supplies
While the scientific community continue to wail and gnash their teeth about carbon dioxide and climate chance (mostly because the scam was exposed, there never was a threat to humanity from carbon dioxide driven global warming and the science heads hate being exposed as corrupt, money grubbing liars) the greater threat to humanity, the collapse of bee cononies is gathering pace and the scientists do not have a clue how to deal with it.

Bye Bye Blackbird (21st century version)
Not the usual kind of parody for humorous effect but a rewriting of the jazz classic's lyric to make some comments on the way we live now.(recorded by Brother Bastion for Bastion Music, currently awaiting conformation that the song is out of copyright before release on his next album.)

The Climate Change Scare Rears Its Ugly Head Again
Just when you thought the climate change scare was dead along with all that anthropogenic global warming crap, some jug eared twat tries to kick some like back into it.

Ode To Politicians (audio)
Who writes poetry about politics, or any satirical poetry these days. satitical verse used to be a potent weapons for popping politicians' ego bubbles. All we get now though is navel gazing free verse. I thought I'd try to get satirical poetry going agaim with this little poem addressed to all politicians

New Study Shows Toxins In GMOs Are Poisonous To Mammals
More evidence that Gemetically Modified organisms are totally unsuitable to be part of the human or animal food chain. When will the message sink in that our politicians and "experts" who advise them just steal our tax monery on behalf of fascist corporations like Monsanto.

A Simple Fruit Could Redcue Risk Of Heart Disease And Get Millions Off Medication
The government and medical professions (Big Pharma shills) are always screaming at us about heart disease and our unhealthy lifestyles. So why are they trying to force hobrrible drugs on us instead of telling us about this.

Is The Universe Helping You Make Decisions
Presentiment, precognition, clairvoyance? It does not sound very scientific does it. And yet a team of researchers at Northwest University have conducted a scientific study and found strong evidence that we can have knowledge of events before they happen. I like to think of myself as a true sceptic (OK, skeptic if you must) who neither believes nor disbelieves anything and so I approached this research with an open mind ...

The Latest News Coming Out Of Syria Is Very Worrying
It is not like me to worry about what is going on in the world, I like to be well informed and aware of all sides of the story.

Even the United Nations Knows Syrian Rebels Used Chemical Weapons So Why Is Obama Still Accusing Assad
Obama's latest war is bogged down in Syria, in spite of the USA being supported by usual suspects, the United Kingdom and France the phalanx of Syrian allies which inclueds Russia, Iran and China looks a bit too formidable to persuade the limp wristed one it is safe to invade or start bombing. So all he has is a war of words, and he's losing that.

What The Cancer Industry Does Not Want Is A Cure The reference in the title to "the cancer industry" was not a mistake.
