Osborne: Britain's 21st Century Goebbels.

George Osborne’s performance during the delivery of the Autumn Statement was a mixture of Mr McCawber, Mystic Meg and Joseph Goebbels. Watching him standing at the dispatch box spewing out projected figures for growth,based on nothing more than fantasy was sickening enough, but watching him smirk like an evil troll-goblin,as he delivered the new welfare cuts, made me want to be physically ill.

As the Tories intensify their ideological war on the poor, by implementing their policy of divide and rule by demonising, stigmatising and persecuting one sector of society, and their disgusting attempts to turn the working poor against the jobless poor, for political expediency, it brought me in mind of the parallels with the Third Reich and their propaganda war against the Jews. And we all know where that ended.

 Cameron and Osborne pour out the same old inaccurate anecdotal evidence, backed up by the right wing gutter press, about people living their lives on benefits. Trying to lay the blame for the government’s economic failings on the vulnerable poor, disabled and jobless. Yet they conveniently ignore the reduction in the top rate of tax, the massive amount of tax avoidance perpetrated by major corporations, as well as wealthy individuals, one of which is an adviser to the Government, the pathetic house building and infrastructure programme, their failure to provide jobs with a living wage and the utter failure of their work programme to get people into work.

We have a situation where a man who has never had a proper job in his life, but is a millionaire, purely down to inherited wealth, or ‘free wealth’, smearing and sneering at people who have paid into a system for upwards of forty years and now find themselves in unfortunate situations, as well as punishing low paid workers, who make up 70% of the people affected by Osborne’s politics of cruelty.

So cleaners on minimum wage, who rise early, to clean the offices of the hedge fund managers and bankers, who created this economic meltdown, are being punished, while the same hedge fund managers and bankers are giving a massive handout,  in the form of a reduction in the top rate of tax.

All in it together. Osborne speaks b*l*oc*s!

If anybody should mention that the wealthy should pay more, the Tories start screaming accusations about ‘politics of envy’ and ‘class warfare’, yet they are happy to perpetrate their own class warfare on the most vulnerable members of society, as well as using their ‘skivers’ and ‘strivers’ b**ls*i* rhetoric, in an attempt to initiate a sense of injustice that may escalate into acts of violence and abuse by one sector of the poor upon an even poorer and vulnerable sector.

What the Tories want to do, with the aid of their ‘quisling’ enablers, the Lib Dems, is turn the clock back 150 yrs, by creating a pool of compliant oppressed workers, that employers can dip into whenever they see fit, and use it as a tool to suppress wages, reduce employment rights, and be able to fire at will, without any repercussions.

Osbornes financial policy has failed. That is evident by the statistics. We are close to a double deep recession. When you consider that Osborne has a degree in History rather than Economics, it’s really no surprise. He doesn't know much about Keynesian economics, but he can tell you how many King Edwards there were. Great, just great.

What the Tories want to do, through their currency of hatred ,is prosecute a social war against a sector of society they despise, many of which have worked and contributed for many years and have earned every penny they have ever owned. Which is in direct contrast to a bunch of ‘posh boys, who are massively wealthy through inherited wealth, live lives of massive privilege and have an even greater sense of detachment from ordinary peoples’ lives. Lives they could never possibly understand or empathise with.


EU farm Subsidies and the feudal state.

These subsidies should be scrapped. As they are paid to landowners, the more land you have the more money you receive. It’s a 21st century feudal system where the serfs pay, in taxes, thousands of pounds, to the biggest and most wealthiest landowners.
Every household in Britain pays over £200 a year to keep wealthy landowners in the style they have become accustomed to. Some of which happen to be Tory MP’s.
 So the Lords of the Land are not that bothered if we don’t doff our caps or tug our forelocks anymore, as long as we keep coughing up the money, so they can continue to ‘live their lives on benefits.’

Starbucks, direct action, Amazon and Google.

Starbucks kindly deemed to pay back some tax because of people power and direct action. There are many places you can get a cup of coffee on the High Street. Amazon and Google are different. They are in a position of strength. They have no competitors to be fearful of, hence they will not pay up. Unfortunately, the majority of the British public is too complacent and lazy to take direct action by not using Amazon. They would rather get a DVD cheaper, than stand on principles and pay more elsewhere, thus forcing Amazon to address their tax affairs in a fair and equitable manner.

A plague on all your houses!


Joke.

Date: 23rd November 2000

Place: Manchester United Training Ground.

United Manager Alex Ferguson:  Why’s Beckham looking so happy?

Asst Trainer: Dunno Boss

AF: Look at him. He’s looking pleased as punch with himself.

Ferguson walks towards Beckham.

AF: Hey Becks, why are you so happy with yourself?

David Beckham walks towards Ferguson with a broad smile across his face.

DB: Well Boss, last night me and Victoria finished a puzzle. On the box it said 5-7 yrs, but it only took us four years.

Ferguson turns and walks away shaking his head.
