MASS IMMIGRATION IS A DISASTER AND LABOUR IS TO BLAME
THROUGHOUT his time in office Gordon Brown has rightly become notorious for his dishonesty but, in his lengthening catalogue of deceit, no utterance has been more grossly misleading than his 2007 vow to promote “British jobs for British workers”.
Cameron's Komsomol: a youth movement to spread the Big Society cultural revolution
It had to come: every Five Year Plan, every social engineering blueprint for a Big Society, needs its corps of Young Pioneers. That need will now be met by Dave’s Komsomol, the National Citizens Service for 16-year-olds, unveiled today by the new Leader of All Progressive Humanity and, incongruously, Sir Michael Caine
Comparisons to the Great Depression: Inexact But Telling
For the majority of us, the credit crisis we are living through has come rather unexpectedly. And because it has been both a surprise to many and a traumatic experience to yet many more, we are all trying to contextualize it using past economic and historical periods. Unfortunately, this is a tricky exercise because it risks conflating the root causes and outcomes of the historical period with those of the present. But, we are going to still do it because the need to explain is so great
Global warming activists cool to honest debate
When ancient fossils of creatures that live on the ocean floor have been found in rock formations at the summit of Mount Everest, that ought to give us a clue that big changes in the earth are nothing new, and that huge changes have been going on long before human beings appeared on the scene.
The recent statement that the earth was warmer in the Middle Ages than it is today, made by the climate scientist who is at the heart of the recent scandal about "global warming" statistics, ought to at least give pause to those who are determined to believe that human beings must be the reason for "climate change."

Cancer vaccine programme suspended after 4 girls die
The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has told Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat to immediately suspend the cervical cancer control vaccination programme for girls. The programme is part of a two-year study to look into the utility of a vaccine in public health programmes and acceptability of Gardasil, the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine made by Merck. Gardasil, available in chemist shops across the country, is marketed in India by MSD Pharmaceuticals Pvt Ltd.
The programme was marred by controversy after four deaths and complications among 120 girls were reported after vaccination. The girls complained of stomach disorders, epilepsy, headaches and early menarche. Women activists fear the vaccine may impact the mental health of girls who have shown no signs of distress so far.

Cut benefits 'to get Neets back to work': MPs demand 'radical' crackdown on young jobless
Young people not in employment, education or training should be stripped of benefits to force them into the workplace, a report from MPs demands.
A 'radical' crackdown is needed to reduce the numbers of so- called Neets, similar to a clampdown in Holland that has seen benefits taken away from those aged under 27 who 'get money and sit at home'.
The MPs say this could be achieved by allowing Neets to claim Jobseeker's Allowance only if they take part in training or education

Wikileaks to release new video showing murder of scores of Afghan civilians
Wikileaks, the scourge of governments from China to the US, will soon release a video related to this killing of more than a hundred innocent Afghan civilians in May 2009. This comes on the backdrop of the release of helicopter footage of the slaying of Iraqis in 2007. Take note of what the US were saying when the news broke last year of the casualties:
Iraq War Vet: "We Were Told to Just Shoot People, and the Officers Would Take Care of Us"
On Monday, April 5, Wikileaks.org posted video footage from Iraq, taken from a US military Apache helicopter in July 2007 as soldiers aboard it killed 12 people and wounded two children. The dead included two employees of the Reuters news agency: photographer Namir Noor-Eldeen and driver Saeed Chmagh.
The US military confirmed the authenticity of the video.
The footage clearly shows an unprovoked slaughter, and is shocking to watch whilst listening to the casual conversation of the soldiers in the background.
As disturbing as the video is, this type of behavior by US soldiers in Iraq is not uncommon.

Seasonal flu vaccines increase risk of pandemic H1N1 flu, stunned scientists discover
I remember the H1N1 "swine flu" season of 2009 very well. People were rushing out to get vaccinated, scared half to death by the mainstream media which was pushing false reports that the swine flu would kill tens of millions of people and that only a vaccine could save you. The CDC and health authorities were pushing a double-barreled vaccine strategy that demanded people get both a seasonal flu shot as well as an H1N1 pandemic flu shot. Those who questioned the sensibility of vaccines for fighting the flu were attacked as "baby killers" for not kow-towing to the vaccine mythology that drives Big Pharma's profits to record profits nearly every flu season.

"I thought I was ... going to the best people for advice when Zak began to lose weight," his mother said. "Instead they basically accused me of neglecting him and implied it was all my fault."
Doctors advised Zak's parents to feed him junk food in order to stem his weight loss. His parents, firm believers in healthy eating, refused.

Digital Economy Bill: ‘a bad day for democracy’
The speedy manner in which the Digital Economy Bill has been pushed through Parliament has been called ‘undemocratic’ by the likes of internet service provider TalkTalk, politicians and internet freedom campaigners.
Ask Labour how to really ruin a country.
Create what is effectively a one man dictatorship.
Set up a quangoland where most of the decisions and rules which affect us are made by quangos run by Labour cronies utterly and completely dependent for their salaries and status on Brown, answering solely to Brown and dismissible on the Führer raising his little finger - and not in any way answerable to the electorate and so cannot be removed by us.
A real life hero.
And I'm not denigrating our armed forces in any way. Every man jack of them are heroes in my eyes.
This is the story of an ordinary man doing without thinking, an heroic act.
This is the dramatic moment a two-year-old girl was plucked from an icy river after being rescued by her father and a total stranger.
Two-year-old Bridget Sheridan had fallen 20ft into New York's East River after slipping off a gangplank at the South Street Seaport museum.
French tourist Julien Duret immediately jumped into the water to rescue the little girl before she sank beneath the water and handed her to her father David Anderson, who had dived in after him.
Heroic: French tourist Julien Duret, right, hands Bridget Sheridan to her father David Anderson after they both dived into New York's East River to save her
Mr Anderson, who was visiting from California, spoke of his relief after his child was brought back to safety and opened her eyes after appearing to be 'lifeless' in the water.
He said: 'She was laying on her back, looking up at me, terror in her eyes. The fact she was crying I knew she was fine.'
Meanwhile Mr Duret simply walked off after his selfless act of heroism and was eventually traced by the New York Daily News.
Mr Duret, 29, from Lyon, said he didn't think twice before diving into the chilly waters
on Saturday.
'The emotion took over,' Duret told the Daily News. 'I didn't think at all. It happened very fast. I reacted very fast... I've never done anything like that before.'
Shocked: Mr Duret was amazed to find he was the hero of New York after he dived into a river to save a drowning toddler
Duret, an engineer on vacation, was walking with his girlfriend on the pier when he spotted something falling into the water.
He approached the water and looked down. He thought it was a doll; then realised it was a child. He stripped his coat and jumped into the water.
When he reached Bridget, she appeared lifeless, he said. He scooped her up and gave her to her father. David Anderson then lifted his daughter out of the water and she opened her eyes.
Anderson said his daughter slipped through guardrails when he stopped watching her so he could adjust his camera. He spirited her into an ambulance, said Duret, who was handed dry clothes from onlookers. Duret caught a cab shortly after.
It was the final day of Mr Duret's first trip to the city. He said he didn't realise his tale of heroism had captivated New York until he was leaving the next morning.
'I don't really think I'm a hero,' he said. 'Anyone would do the same thing.'
He would never make a PCSO.

ALERT: Euro on Verge of Real Crisis
We are so concerned by recent developments with Greece as a canary in the coal mine for the Euro that we just issued an alert to subscribers that we foresee a big blow up for the Euro in about roughly one month’s time. That is USD bullish and gold bullish, and bearish for about everything else out there. And this has many other implications for US Treasury bonds, the China Yuan revaluation issue and many others. This Euro situation is a huge potential bombshell, possibly outgunning all previous huge crises we faced over the last 2.5 years. That’s right, the Euro situation can outgun all the worst financial chaos we have seen so far, and lead to massive currency instability worldwide. This is a big deal if it happens as we foresee.

Debt will seed next American revolution
Two weeks earlier, Moody’s had warned that the gilt-edged triple-A credit rating of the most heavily indebted nation on Earth had moved “substantially” closer to downgrade, and so advised in foreboding language. (Downgrade or not, Moody’s said, the United States needs to enact fiscal restraint of such magnitude “that, in some cases, will test social cohesion” – a prediction that evokes images of mobs and mayhem.) In such circumstances, a Canadian offer of bailout assistance would be a matter of compelling self-interest.

Great Power Rivalry. China's Role as America's Creditor
"From Export Juggernaut to a Credit Addict"
There's no doubt that China manipulates its currency to gain an unfair advantage over its competitors. There's also no doubt that Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner will do everything in his power to avoid a confrontation with China's President Hu Jintao when he arrives in Washington in two weeks. That's why Geithner has decided to shelve Treasury's mandated currency manipulation report for the time-being and diffuse a potential imbroglio with Hu. But the Treasury Secretary's unwillingness to embarrass his guest, has angered members of congress who think the administration needs to take a tougher stand on China to protect American workers and U.S. exporters. Senators. Charles Schumer (NY-D) and Lindsey Graham (SC-R) are demanding that China be labeled a "currency manipulator" so that punitive action can be taken. That could lead a full-blown trade war with America's biggest creditor.

Many other currencies face the same dilemma and in the final analysis only gold will be worth what it is today or in the future.

The Global Economic Crisis: Riots, Rebellion and Revolution
When Empire Hits Home, Part 3
As nations of the world are thrown into a debt crisis, the likes of which have never been seen before, harsh fiscal ‘austerity’ measures will be undertaken in a flawed attempt to service the debts. The result will be the elimination of the middle class.

Tyranny Response Team Engages Gestapo Youth
SouthNewJerseyTRT — 03 April 2010 — All great tyrannies work at capturing the minds of the youth. No longer are our children going to be learning survival skills, camping and hunting abilities. Instead they will be training to police and control us.
These are the new Boy Scouts of America, black uniform wearing "authorities". Understand that this is what police states always do before they truly turn the entire system against the public at large. This also serves to condition you to accept roving SS styled police on the streets everywhere.

Is It Just Us Or Have There Been Far Too Many Quakes Lately?

In some places we been fortunate enough to see little damage, yet others are still suffering the economic consequences, such as in Haiti and to a far lesser extent Mexico and the U.S. right now.

Welcome to the False Recovery
The one economic indicator that seems to point toward long-term hope for businesses is the increase in the U.S. household savings rate—the portion of income that wage earners aren’t spending. Savings were close to nil until the economic collapse but have been rising ever since. As of this writing, the rate stands at about 4.8%. Economists and business leaders say this is a good sign, despite the short-term drag created by decreased spending. “I would feel more pessimistic if it were still 1%,” says Gregory W. Brown at the University of North Carolina’s Kenan-Flagler Business School. Friends of mine who run companies, both private and public, have expressed pretty much the same sentiment. A savings rate that’s even in the 6%-to-8% range is respectable. And if consumers don’t return to their old borrowing-and-buying habits, the argument goes, one day they’ll go out and spend all this saved-up cash, and businesses everywhere will reap the benefits.
But in fact, the rising savings rate is telling us something very different
