Paignton Bike Night

From Drop Box

Well well, down at Paignton Bike night tonight, for the last one of the season. The good souls at BMAD have made over 30K this year for local charity. So hats of to them!!

Nice to see that the plod are geared up for racing, with this super little Honda 600RR covert police bike. So be aware, ride safe and don't go racing on the road, you dont know who is following you.....

Rolle College Fiasco

So, the "deal is off", as reported in our local press, it would now seem the hoped for saving of the "Rolle Campus" as a "post 16 educational facility" is not going to happen. After all the bluster and promises by the local council, the plan has been abandoned. This will now mean, that all the Rolle Campus, faces being sold of for "Macarthy and Stonesque" bijou retirement developments. The infrastructure of Exmouth cannot stand levels of development of this kind. We already have an ageing population, which places an unbalanced strain on local services, why do we need more housing for well of retired civil servants from Walton on Bloody Thames. We need affordable housing for local people, we need real jobs to employ local people and we need investment in industries, for sustained long term growth. We do not need to see expensive luxury retirement apartments being built on the college site, or on the old playing fields. This whole affair is a fiasco of the highest order and I feel questions need to be asked over the deals that were done with the University of Plymouth, when they took over the college, as the whole affair stinks!

Knee Jerk Reaction Time!

Well what a surprise, the Government (you know,those people who know whats best for us!) Look like they are going to ban "petting animals" for kids, because of the "E Coli" outbreak at the farm in Surrey. So a generation of children, now face the possibility, that they will never feed a goat, or stroke a donkey, touch a pig, or cuddle a newborn lamb......thanks to the "Orwellian control freaks" that run our country. For years, children have visited country parks, pets corners in zoo's and farms, to learn about and interact with animals. Why does the government see fit to take away everyone's chances of enjoying a visit to such places, all because of an outbreak, which could easily have been caused by parents failing to look after their children correctly and not washing their hands. We face a grave danger, that if we continue to "wrap children up" in cotton wool, we will end up with a generation of kids who have never played!, never grazed a knee or elbow, never climbed a tree, never experienced the thrill of danger or the fear of the unknown, an entire generation of namby pamby,wishy washy future do gooders, fit only for public sector jobs or careers in health and safety or human resources...WTF!!! Kids need to get grubby, have fun, get bruises and scrapes, so they know pain and fear and all the emotions they will need to survive the jungle that awaits them in the big wide world. Then again I suppose that,s not the "Labour Way" is it? Labour needs a compliant soft underbelly, of non questioning sheep to continue unquestioning support of its goals and ambitions, so maybe it will suit their future needs...

Stupid new law!

As a Cyclist, motorcyclist and car user, I have seen all sorts of stupid behaviour, by every sort of road user. Accidents are common when cycling and motorcycling, mainly due to other road users failure of concentration. However, there are also accidents caused by the rank stupidity and carelessness of cyclists and motorcyclists. So a new "law" currently being mooted by the "Nanny State", will only strengthen "Anti Cycling" feeling.

The proposal, is to make the higher powered vehicle "Always Guilty" in any accident, thus making cyclists and pedestrians always "innocent". Thus if a pedestrian, or a cyclist, rode or walked out in front of you, you would be the guilty party. Even if you were driving at the legal speed, exercising due diligence and having a roadworthy vehicle.......

Great idea!!! I dont think so, this will just lead to more compensation culture.

Statistics prove BREAD KILLS!!

A wise man once said, "There are Lies, Damm Lies, and statistics"

Using statistics you can prove anything!!

Even that BREAD KILLS!!!!

Bread Kills!

1. More than 98 percent of convicted criminals are bread users. 2. Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on sats tests.
3. In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home, the average life expectancy was less than 50 years; infant mortality rates were unacceptably high; many women died in childbirth; and diseases such as typhoid, yellow fever, and influenza ravaged whole nations.
4. Every piece of bread you eat brings you nearer to death.
5. Bread is associated with all the major diseases of the body. For example, nearly all sick people have eaten bread. The effects are obviously cumulative:

• 99.9% of all people who die from cancer have eaten bread.
• 100% of all soldiers have eaten bread.
• 96.9% of all Communist sympathizers have eaten bread.
• 99.7% of the people involved in air and car accidents ate bread within 6 months preceding the accident.
• 93.1% of juvenile delinquents came from homes where bread is served frequently.

6. Evidence points to the long-term effects of bread eating: Of all people born before 1839 who later dined on bread, there has been a 100% mortality rate. 7. Bread is made from a substance called "dough." It has been proven that as little as a teaspoon of dough can be used to suffocate a lab rat. The average Britain eats more bread than that in one day!
8. Primitive tribal societies that have no bread exhibit a low incidence of cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, and osteoporosis.
9. Bread has been proven to be addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and being fed only water begged for bread after as little as two days.
10. Bread is often a "gateway" food item, leading the user to "harder" items such as butter, jam, peanut butter, and even cold meat.
11. Bread has been proven to absorb water. Since the human body is more than 90 percent water, it follows that eating bread could lead to your body being taken over by this absorptive food product, turning you into a soggy, gooey bread-pudding person.
12. Newborn babies can choke on bread.
13. Bread is baked at temperatures as high as 400 degrees Fahrenheit! That kind of heat can kill an adult in less than one minute.
14. Most bread eaters are utterly unable to distinguish between significant scientific fact and meaningless statistical babbling.
In light of these frightening statistics, we propose the following bread restrictions:
1. No sale of bread to children.
2. A nationwide "Just Say No To Toast" campaign, complete celebrity TV spots and car stickers.
3. A 300 percent tax on all bread to pay for all the social ills we might associate with bread.
4. No animal or human images, nor any primary colors (which may appeal to children) may be used to promote bread usage.
5. The establishment of "Bread-free" zones around schools.

A 9 year old with more sense than our legal system

In a week when the news is lacklustre, the odd little gem arrives. This story from London, tells of a little 9 Year old girl, with more sense of right and wrong than our entire twisted legal system. Her music teacher has been jailed for 3 years, after giving his terminally ill father a WWII pistol with which to kill himself and this young lady is bright enough and articulate enough to write to Jack Straw and ask why! even to ask why Baby P's mother only got 5 years and her music teacher gets 3, when he is no threat to the community whatsoever. What a twisted world we live in. I wonder how many years Gordon Brown and Tony Blair will get for the deaths they have ordered since they have been in power?

Lockerbie Bomber Feted by African Politicians

Perusing the BBC website today, I found this report on Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi
the Lockerbie bomber. It would seem good old Abdhul was "wheeled out" by the Libyan propaganda machine to make some more capital out of his release by the Scottish Parliament (remember nothing to do with Gordo!!)
 His visitors were a bunch of African politicians (read corrupt dictators lackeys) who had come to Libya to butt kiss Gadaffi. Obviosly in search of more funds to prop up their countries regimes.
 The good old Beeb in its non biased colonialist apologist style dutifully trotted out a nice little propaganda coup for Gadaffi. STORY HERE ON BBC
A spokesman for the African Union (read "Gang of corrupt dictatorships") said: he and his colleagues had come to "express solidarity".
"He (Abdhul) is the victim of international injustice and a policy of double standards," Mr Moussa said.

As if that wasn't a big enough laugh:


A Libyan member of the AU parliament, Mohamed Jibril, compared the welcome Megrahi received with that of a group of Bulgarian nurses who were convicted of infecting babies with HIV in Libya, but were pardoned in Europe.
"The visit by the African parliament to Mr Megrahi is no different from the reception given to the Bulgarian nurses by the European Parliament," he said.

Now those quotes were taken from the BEEB, as reported! Lets look a little deeper at the "Bulgarian Nurses Story", and what do we find, torture, imprisonment, false evidence and cover ups by the Libyans. So from this, we can assume that "Mohamed Jibril" when translated into English means "Lying Bastard"

Read the TRUE non PC version of the Bulgarians hideous treatment and torture HERE, this time the EU get involved in a little "self interest oil for hostages" scenario, and Gadaffi scores an EU coup.


Great little world we live on aint it!

Exmouth Strand Developement

Well well, the local council are going to spend 3 million quid on revamping the Strand Gardens in Exmouth. In these recessive times, not exactly "best value". See the debate on the Journal Forum

Exmouth Journal Forum

Let there be light 2

Following on from my previous rant over the dreaded CFL bulbs and their poisonous contents, some good news at last. Philips have come up with a new range of LED bulbs, which look set to take LED lighting into the 21st Century

Devon NHS plans to close care homes

It was nice to read in my local paper the Exmouth Journal that our local MP Hugo Swire has asked questions of our local NHS trust, who are planning to close down the care homes in our local town Story Here and Here and thrust many vulnerable and handicapped people into the "jaws of private sector care".

Lets hope he gets some answers, at least that will be more than the relatives of those affected are currently getting. Thanks to "caring Nu Labour" we are seeing far too much of this happening, where the most vulnerable and defenceless in society are being treated like commodities. To be sold to the private sector, thus allowing the NHS to abdicate responsibility for their care and sell their old care homes for private sector redevelopment. This is not the way a caring society operates and these are not the principles on which the founding fathers of the original Labour movement based their party. But then Nu Labour is merely an ersatz copy of true labour, with no morals apart from those of the gutter. Led and populated by self serving, second rate individuals who would be hard pressed to find decent careers in the private sector. They have led us into the biggest financial mess since the great depression and overseen the ruination of our nation, our culture and our moral values, so what hope can one hold out for those too vulnerable to have a voice against their plans?

I have just been reading a superb article by Melanie Philips about the "Siege Of Camp Ashraf" in Iraq. This is not a US or Allied military base, it is the HQ of an organisation which escaped Iran because they were opposed to the fundamentalist regime there and had been fighting against it. During the gulf war, they gave their support to the USA and voluntarily disarmed themselves. Giving their security over to the protection of the US.

One US security company (read mercenary group) said....

Camp Ashraf

The Mujahedin el-Khalq (MKO or MEK) main base is at Camp Ashraf, Iraq, about 100 kilometers west of the Iranian border and 60 kilometers north of Baghdad. The People's Mujahadeen, also known by its Persian name Mujahedeen-e Khalq (MEK), has been classified by Washington as a terrorist organization. Washington announced on 22 April 2003 that it had reached a ceasefire with the MEK. The next day MEK officials said the agreement allowed the MEK to keep its weapons and carry on its activities in Iran from Camp Ashraf. But June 2003 the US Military Police took control of Camp Ashraf and the MEK was consolidated and all weapons secured by MPs. As of September 2003 the 4,000 MEK members in the former Mujahedeen base were consolidated, detained, disarmed and were being screened for any past terrorist acts.

The 530th MP Battalion, maintained the MEK Detention Facility at Camp Ashraf.

Wheras this video on You Tube gives a different picture!

Now the good old US has done the dirty on them (there's a surprise) and handed their protection over to the Iraqis. Who have abducted 36 of them murdered 11 and put the camp under siege.........

This is an event which will be and has been ignored by the mainstream media, however, it is very telling as to who controls the Iraqi Military. Ask yourself the question, if the USA are in charge of the Iraqi Military, why would they lay siege to a group of people whose opposition is to the regime in Iran? Whereas if the Iraqi government and military is actually heavily infiltrated by Shia's and Iranians, it is in their interests to remove the residents of camp Ashraf from the face of the planet.

Methinks the takeover of Iraq by the Iranians will be merely a formality once the Allies pull out, god help the poor ordinary Iraqis. From one dictatorship to another, with merely a brief period of blood letting and carnage in between.

So this is civilisation?

Will someone stop the bus I want to get off..............

Spotted Richard!

And so it came to pass, that political correctness went mad again. This time at the HQ of Mold Council. For years their staff canteen has served the famous pudding "Spotted Dick" but the canteen has now renamed the pudding "Spotted Richard" due to some immature comments by diners.........

BBC Article

What the hell is going on? do i detect that council menus all over the UK will now face a "PC Makeover"

Any suggestions for "offensive foods" in need of re naming I wonder?

Let there be light!

So here we are, about to plunge headlong into an era of Darkness, created by the EU in its bid to shrink our carbon footprint. Yes that's right, darkness caused by "NO LIGHT BULBS"" First it was the humble bayonet fitting 40/60 ands 100 Watt bulbs that were replaced by the hideous mercury laden "low energy bulbs". Next it is spotlights, downlights and bulbs that focus light into one spot, none of which have been emulated by a "Low energy" replacement.
Let us examine the idea of the "low energy bulb". Its food equivalent is the "low calorie crisp". You know, the ones on the supermarket shelves branded, new lower in fat!, lower in polyunsaturates and "now only 100 calories a bag". Like the lightbulb, statements which are a con. Lower in fat by 30% because there is 30% less in the bag, lower in salt by 30% because there is 30% less in the bag...and so on! Just like the low energy bulb, uses less energy because it produces less light, uses less energy because it takes so long to warm up, you have turned the fu**ing thing off, because you have lost the will to live and lit a bloody candle!

Then there is the mercury, yes that's right, no mercury in filament bulbs, just inert gas and a filament, easy peasy. Our low energy bulbs however, are a different ball game. They contain a plethora of contaminants, worst of which is mercury. Even the dept of the Environment have published the following advice if you break one...

Official advice from the Department of the Environment states that if a low-energy bulb is smashed, the room needs to be vacated for at least 15 minutes.

A vacuum cleaner should not be used to clear up the debris, and care should be taken not to inhale the dust.

Instead, rubber gloves should be used, and the broken bulb put into a sealed plastic bag - which should be taken to the local council for disposal.

Unbroken used bulbs can be taken back to the retailer if the owner is a member of the Distributor Takeback Scheme.

Otherwise, many local waste disposal sites now have the facilities to safely collect and dispose of old bulbs.

However, this advice is not printed on the packaging that low-energy bulbs are sold in.

Hows that then, we have been sold a "pup" by the EU, a bulb that produces less light, contains more poisons, possibly causes migraines and eye strain, but will make our carbon footprint smaller!

Superb, all this from an organisation which moves its entire bureaucratic juggernaut across Europe every year. Produces a "Rain forest" worth of paperwork every year and oversees its member states"rape of the worlds minerals and resources" to feed its voracious appetite for products to fuel its wheels of commerce.

Pot kettle and black spring to mind!

When will this madness cease, when will we pull out of this insidious organisation and go our own way, before we are torn asunder!

Two more brave souls lost!

Well here we go, whilst Gordy and the spin doctors are trying to get their arses out of the fire over the Libyan terrorist for oil release. Our guys are still "buying the farm" out in Afghan. Over the weekend we have lost another Chinook and two brave guys from the Black Watch. But never mind good old Gordy has been out to Afghanistan to bolster the troops morale. Never one to miss out on a photo opportunity, he heard Cameron was going visiting, so he pre empted the shadow PM and popped over himself.

I wonder how much money it cost to ferry the PM over to Afghan and then protect him whilst he was there? I bet he didn't go for a joyride in a "Snatch Landrover" whilst he was there! Bloody pathetic, they could have used the money it took to get the PM on telly and spent it on "live rounds", as the press reported this week that our troops are being denied live ammo to train with, because a live round costs 30p and blanks are only 10p. Maybe a cheaper option would be to send the Warmington on Sea Home Guard to Afghan. They could attack the Taliban shouting "BANG 123, BANG 123 your dead". Think how much "in real terms" the Government would save on that little exercise!

I noticed a new "Game Show" advertised recently, sponsored by NU LABOUR and set to challenge the X Factor. It's Called "ASYLUM" and the pilot has been running for a few years in the UK, don't miss it. I gather the BBC have sold the rights to AL Jazera TV for an undisclosed sum....
