Two Months of Nothing but Empty Words.


 
Theresa May has been Prime Minister of Great Britain and Northern Ireland for two months, and it has been two months of vacuous platitudes followed by knee jerk reactionary nonsense, probably dreamt up by the policy advisor she has presumably headhunted from UKip (United Kingdom Independence Party) or some extreme right wing think-tank.

She began by standing outside No 10 and delivered a pile of platitudinous bull crap about social justice, helping the poor, and saying how she understood how people were struggling, whilst reminding us that Brexit means Brexit (whatever that means?). Just remembering it makes me want to dry heave. She then gave into the corporates over the sugar tax and continued her predecessors habit of not answering any questions at Prime Ministers Questions Time, but instead continuing to use it as platform to spew out rehearsed and meaningless propaganda, as well as delivering pathetic prescripted jokes in such a stilted and embarrassing manner, even I cringe on her behalf. I think humour and Theresa May are very distant cousins. I’m certain they’ve never met.

In two months the Brexit negotiations have quickly descended into empty rhetoric and has highlighted that May, David Davis (Oberleutenant in Charge of Brexit Negotiations), Boris Johnson (Oberleutenant in Charge of not wanting to leave the European Union but pretending he did for the purposes of career advancement), and Liam Fox (Oberleutenant for ??), have not got a clue what they are doing. I just hope their travel expense claims are being checked, because a Tory minister was caught claiming tax payers’ money for their man friend as he accompanied Fox (oops) the minister around the world on ministerial business and the minister was sacked. Weird that isn’t it. If you are claiming welfare benefits and claim monies you are not entitled to, you get banged up, yet if you misappropriate tax payers’ money as a minister, you get to step back for a year or two before being offered another well paid job within the government of the country you ripped off. How very meritocratic. Anyway, enough about suspect politicians. Back to Brexit.

The government’s attitude to Brexit at the moment is, we don’t know what we’re doing, so stop asking annoying questions about the negotiations because we are not going to tell you anything because then you won’t know what we haven’t achieved. Apparently reclaiming sovereignty means a lack of transparency and a government acting in secrecy. When David Davis, the Minister for Brexit, made a statement in the House of Commons, instead of presenting a coherent strategy with objectives and deadlines, all we got was a blancmange of insipid generalisations, vague clichés and a lot of touchy feely nonsense about talking to people.

The brexiteers attitude (or as they like to be known, The 52, even though they’re actually only The 35) is, stop being critical you traitorous dogs. And why can’t you doubters embrace our neo-fascist nationalist dream of returning to those black shirted sunlit uplands of the 1930’s, when there were hardly any foreigners about, as well as shouting, “look it hasn’t fallen apart yet has it, ha,ha. I caught a bus yesterday. So there”. To which the reply is “we actually haven’t left the European Union yet, moron”. And  “oh and by the way, I thought I lived in a democracy with freedom of speech. so if I want to voice opinions on a particular subject, it’s my right to do so whether you like it or not. So shut up Fascists!” 

Finally, in an attempt to draw peoples’ attentions away from the Brexit debacle and all those annoying questions, Theresa May has deployed her first dead cat by announcing a policy to reintroduce selective educations through Grammar Schools and removing the obstacle that prevented faith based schools from being totally exclusive to one faith. Now we will be faced with the possibility of Catholic schools being solely filled with catholic children, Muslim schools will be solely Muslim, Hindu schools for Hindus and Jewish schools will be exclusively filled with children of the Jewish faith, rather than schools being filled with a diverse population of children from different faiths, class and demographics. They will become ghettos of faith where diversity is a dirty world and where it will be taught that people who are different are not to be trusted, considered as unbelievers, and destined for eternal hellfire. Exclusive faith schools will propagate fundamentalism and extremism as well as increasing the chances of flat earther’s teaching crackpot theories such as creationism whilst embedding misogyny and homophobia into impressionable minds.

This is not creating a fair and meritocratic society. This is creating a society based on difference and division. It is segregation. The end of any form of multi culturalism. It is one step nearer religious and social apartheid. It is the type of future members of Alt-Right have wet dreams about. A society will be created similar to the banlieus in French cities, where minorities are isolated and forgotten, leading to resentment, and where extremism often thrives.

Selective education leaves 80% of the school population behind, and is particularly deleterious to the chances and opportunities of children from poorer backgrounds. Labelling young children as failures is not a particularly constructive attitude to take. The majority of studies have shown selective education does not promote social mobility. Selective education benefits the few and impairs the opportunities of the many. In existing grammar schools, only 3% of pupils are eligible for free school meals. Grammar schools are stuffed full with middle class children while children from working class backgrounds are neglected and left to fail in substandard secondary schools. Selective education is anti-utilitarian. It is a retrograde step based on distorted, rose tinted memories from the 1950’s, and hampers meritocracy rather than facilitating it. I would have thought money used to finance yet another upheaval in our educational system would be better used creating technical and vocational schools and colleges, where people can train to become plumbers, electricians and carpenters rather than creating more Media Studies post graduates. An interesting footnote to the grammar school argument is that the Education Secretary who closed the largest amount of grammar schools was a certain Margaret Thatcher. Not sure what happened to her.

Theresa May’s words, and her actions, are miles apart. Her first two months in office started with progressive liberal rhetoric, stolen from former Labour leader Ed Milliband, and has ended with the promise of backward-looking and out-dated actions, where she is just granting wishes from the wish list of the right wing media and the extreme arm of the Tory party, whilst attempting to dress it up as social justice.

The chances of this policy coming to fruition are slim as it was not part of the manifesto that the Tory’s were elected on, which means when it goes through the House of Lords it will be rejected, and as it was not part of the Tory manifesto the Prime Minister will not be able to overrule the House of Lords, therefore this policy is destined to fail unless May calls a General Election.

So I’m afraid you’ve failed your exam Mrs May, so you will not be attending the local grammar school. But not to worry, we’ve managed to find you a place at the Creationist and Homophobe School for Women Haters Secondary but Not Very Modern School.

Travel Advice.

A Chinese airline has given some very helpful information to travellers to the United Kingdom, in their in-house magazine. They have advised travellers not to enter certain areas in the United Kingdom as they are full of Indians, Pakistanis, and Blacks, and it may be dangerous. All very enlightened stuff.

I felt it would only be right to reciprocate.

However, my advice is for cats and dogs, and is as follows.

If you are a cat or a dog, and you find yourself travelling in China, beware, there are some areas where you might be thrown into a boiling vat of water, skinned alive, and then eaten by sub-human scum.

The difference between the Chinese airlines advice and mine, is that my advice is true.

 Canned Hunting.
In South Africa they carry out the incredibly unpleasant pastime of Canned Hunting. This involves lions, and other game that have been reared in cages, being let out in fenced enclosures to be shot by gutless spineless cowards, normally men, but not exclusively, from the back of trucks or other places of safety. These so-called 'hunters' are in no danger whatsoever from the lion, which normally wanders listlessly around, bemused at being freed for a few minutes, before these gutless scumbags and sorry excuses for men blast away at it and then congratulate each other for being so 'brave'. Some animals are shot with crossbow's.
Obviously the rifles and crossbows are an extension of the incredibly small penis's these retards are in possession of and killing animals from the safety of a truck is replacement therapy for their sexual inadequacies and latent, 'probably' unfulfilled sexual yearnings, they experience towards their mothers. What a bunch of sad fuc*s!
I expect it's the kind of leisure activity muscle stimulant salesman, Ian Botham, would probably enjoy.

 
The Houses of Parliament.

The Houses of Parliament are in a state of disrepair and Members of Parliament may have to move out for up to six years. The question is, where should they move to? The answer is obvious. Why don’t they cut out the middle man and just relocate to the headquarters of Rupert Murdoch’s News International?

Ways to wind up a Brexiteer. No 764.

Suggest to them that the best way to take back control of our borders would be to move the Calais jungle across the channel to Dover.
