Luckily, and bafflingly, the millionaires in the House of Lords seem to understand the common man better than the millionaires in the House of commons so have voted it down, but still, to make it clear

MPs are trying to steal money from children

for fuck sake. With them trying to steal the NHS, steal our money and give it to bankers, dodging taxes, making the education system worse, ensuring young people can’t afford houses and will work their entire lives paying for other peoples pensions never reaching the ever increasing retirement age the rich nowadays really don’t seem to be very attached to their heads.

Jason West is a 38-year-old father of three from Ash, near Aldershot. All his children are students at Ash Manor school, a specialist technology college. On 28 April this year, his youngest son came home from school, and told him about a CCTV camera installed above urinals in one of the school’s toilets. “When he told me, I couldn’t believe it,” he says. It turned out there were cameras in both boys’ and girls’ toilets

From this article. apparently this is to stop smoking. And it might stop the kids smoking in the toilet, but they’ll just do it somewhere else. So instead of your kids just smoking, they’ll smoke and have the headmaster look at their dicks.

It seems a remarkable coincidence that all the bad parents happen to live in the poorest areas of the country. Also weird that young men with darker complexions seem to get stopped & searched in those areas more often as well (but that definitely has nothing to do with not respecting the police, bad parenting again). Also strange that you get 2 years for thinking about stealing some fags but stealing £450,000 from the taxpayer gets you a pretty cushy job (even if you’re not qualified).

The wedding of Jordan’s Prince Ali in 2004 took place with a singular lack of fanfare, with an understated private ceremony and, in a move that some cash-strapped Britons might eye with envy, Prince Ali distributed the money that would have been spent on a big reception to hundreds of the country’s poorest families.

From this article on the worldwide coverage of my bonus day off watching the cricket (apparently something’s happening in London as well). Glad to know the media is insane everywhere not just here.

This would be a huge seller across the channel, and no French policeman could arrest you dressed in it.

These guys made some kids have a slightly rubbish christmas, and they only might face prison. What a disgrace.

I did like that the best seller is £11.54, some lucky ladies are going to feel very loved on valentines day.

¹ at least how feminine is generally considered, I get that some women do like SF, Cricket and can understand the offside rule

As we have debts of ~£1 trillion with a GDP of ~£1.5 trillion we obviously need cuts, thats 66% of our GDP in debt! So obviously we need to:

• Stop building things at government expense, putting thousands out of work
• Get rid of government non-jobs staffed by eco-feminazi-PC-health&safety-gone-mad bureaucrats, putting thousands out of work
• Raise VAT and fuel duty making everything more expensive , putting thousands out of work

This lack of employment and increase in costs will increase the tax income and cut the debt. (Dave did economics at uni so this must make sense¹).

My plan

My mortgage debt is ~300% of my GIP (Gross Individual Product) which compared to the economy is really dangerous. So I plan to eliminate the following from my budget and pay off the debt in 3 years.

• Savings – having cash for emergencies is overrated
• Phone & Broadband – after hitting ‘Send to Blog’ anyway
• Cricket – how can I be entertained with that debt on my shoulders
• Council tax – they’re sacking everyone so what am I paying for?
• Home insurance – I don’t own it yet so why insure it?
• Food – a luxury I can’t afford
• Gas, water & electric – another luxury
• Everything else

You might be thinking that’s stupid, without investing in the things like food, clothes, warmth and water that keep you alive you’ll die stop getting paid.

You probably also think that spending money on things, like infrastructure, schools and the NHS, cutting regressive taxes, increasing employment and making the rich pay their way when they’ve reaped all the benefits of society might be a good idea.

And you’d be right, unlike the Tory cunts running the country.

¹ Fun fact, Gideon, who’s supposed to be running the economy, didn’t. He did modern history.

The thing is they didn’t ban the Marie Stopes ad )which was the right choice) but it’s just as offensive to Catholics. And didn’t ban the Paddy Power blind football advert which is offensive to anyone who isn’t a cunt.

The ASA say:

Marketing communications must not contain anything that is likely to cause serious or widespread offence. Particular care must be taken to avoid causing offence on the grounds of race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability or age. Compliance will be judged on the context, medium, audience, product and prevailing standards.

One of those things is not like the others, you get to choose it and your choice can mean other people’s choices offend you. Will the ASA be banning advert for Arsenal games because they offend Spurs fans?

On the plus side there’s this tweet:
