    Anger Meets Righteous Anger.

    Marx Knew NOWT!

    “Marx wrote about finance and industry all his life but he only knew two people connected with financial and industrial processes. One was his uncle in Holland, Lion Philips, a successful businessman who created what eventually became the vast Philips Electric Company. Uncle Philips' views on the whole capitalist process would have been well-informed and interesting, had Marx troubled to explore them. But he only once consulted him, on a technical matter of high finance, and though he visited Philips four times, these concerned purely personal mattes of family money. The other knowledgeable man was Engels himself. But Marx declined Engel's invitation to accompany him on a visit to a cotton mill, and so far as we know Marx never set foot in a mill, factory, mine or other industrial workplace in the whole of his life.”

    Power Policy Madness.

    From: Dr Bev Wilkinson, White Grove, Roundhay, Leeds.
    NOW that we we have a cold snap, the electorate is beginning to wake up to the crazy national policy on power generation.
    We currently obtain 46 per cent of our power from tried and tested coal generation plants which have greatly reduced their noxious emissions over the last few years.
    We produce a good proportion of the coal and can import the rest relatively cheaply from numerous sources.
    The plan, already in full swing, is to eliminate all the above over the next eight years or so to replace them with mainly gas powered plants relying on unpredictable supply, predominantly from Russia, at even more unpredictable prices – far higher than we currently pay.
    To greatly exacerbate the situation, this and the previous government has signed up to spectacularly expensive subsidies, to be paid for by the consumer, to promote hopelessly expensive and unreliable temporary sources such as wind and solar power, together with huge costs linking these intermittent sources to the grid, when the reliable base producers are forced to step down and run less efficiently.
    Reports of decent sensible people leaving their house all day to use public buildings, such as libraries, to afford to keep warm are surfacing but the extent of the full costs of the above policies are only beginning to be generally appreciated.
    This is a monster created by politicians cowing to the diktats of European carbon emission policies while leaving the population, not to mention our industrial base, to suffer, shiver and wither.
    It is clear that others in Europe, and in particular Germany, have no serious intention of meeting any such targets. (Yorks Post.)

    The FA Cup.

    There has been much discussion over the weekend as to whether or not the FA Cup has totally lost the edge and excitement that it had long possessed.

    Sid Cordle Tells Christians To Demonstrate.

    In an interview with the Huffington Post UK, Sid Cordle, the new leader of the Christian People's Alliance, said his party had plans to "give a voice to angry Christians."
    "I want Christians out on the streets. I want us to stand shoulder-to-shoulder. I want them out in large numbers. There's enormous demonstrations in France, in the US.
    "You can't argue that France is more of a Christian country than us. We have large Christian organisations in this country, but at the moment they are not using their voice.
    Cordle rejects arguments that Christians in the UK have no tradition of rowdy demonstrations, like those seen in the US: "[Christian lobbying organisation and charity] CARE was founded in 1971 as a campaigning, demonstration organisation.
    "Their original reason for existing was large demonstrations. Christian organisations seem to think that nowadays it's better to lobby behind the scenes.
    "I'm afraid I don't. I think we need to go out onto the streets, make those noises."

    Judges in the so-called ‘fast-track court’ in Odisha (formerly Orissa) are accused of deliberately keeping the Christians in jail – apparently to appease Hindu extremists. The prosecution has frequently called for adjournments; judges have failed to turn up to hearings.(Release Int.) 

    Franklin Graham On Commitment.

    "What does that mean? To say 'God here is my life, take it and use it'? Because there are some costs associated with this," said Graham, who read from Luke 14 to illustrate his point. "You have to be willing to give up everything…If you are going to follow me, if you are going to be my disciple you have got to understand the cost. You have to put me first."
    Johnnie Moore, vice president of Executive Projects at Liberty, provided The Christian Post with a statement from Liberty Chancellor Jerry Falwell Jr. regarding Graham's visit.
    "While other evangelists have chosen a path of political correctness, Franklin has taken a stand for the unborn and traditional marriage and against radical Islam in national elections and has endured vicious attacks from the left as a result," said Falwell.

    EU Destroys MANY Jobs.

    The truth is that our membership of the EU has destroyed British jobs. It has destroyed them in two ways,

    - first, by imposing excessive and costly regulations on business, including many regulations that make it unprofitable to recruit and employ workers, and
    - second, by allowing in immigrant workers in vast numbers (the low millions) who have to some extent displaced British-born workers in the UK labour market.

    Let me repeat in sound-bite form: EU membership has destroyed British jobs because of unwanted immigration and excessive regulation. If we leave the EU, we can relax regulations and stop new immigration. That will bring back jobs and small businesses.

    Mr Justice Mitting.

    A TOP judge provoked outrage ­yesterday when he blocked Government attempts to deport a “depressed” Algerian terror suspect amid fears the man may kill himself.
    Britain’s most senior immigration judge invoked human rights laws to spare the man – who does not ­dispute claims he poses a risk to national security – after hearing he may not be put on suicide watch while in Algerian custody.
    The move means the 43-year-old man, known only as G, can stay in the UK at taxpayers’ expense despite being accused of funding Islamists trying to overthrow his home government and supporting international terrorists in this ­country.
    Last week, six Britons were killed during a siege at the In Amenas gas plant in southern Algeria by armed jihadists of the kind allegedly supported by the terror suspect.
    Details of the ruling by Mr Justice Mitting sparked uproar. It comes two months after the same judge provoked a huge public outcry by blocking the ­deportation of Jordanian hate preacher Abu Qatada. (Express)

    'Dave's' Scam Explained Fully By Peter Hitchens.

    How strange that Beyoncé Knowles gets into trouble for pretending to sing The Star Spangled Banner at President Obama’s inauguration, but David Cameron is lavishly praised for faking an entire policy on live TV.
    Why do the remnants of the Tory media, not to mention Tory loyalists and voters, swoon repeatedly into Mr Slippery’s unreliable arms? Time and again he dumps them rudely on the floor. Time and again they come simpering back like besotted suitors.
    I know that it is usually hopeless to try to explain to the lovestruck that their beloved’s greasy smile hides a cheating heart. But I will try, by the time-honoured method of straight questions and straight answers.
    Does Mr Cameron want Britain to leave the EU? No. He has repeatedly said he doesn’t want us to, and he has never said he does.
    If he fails to win any serious concessions from the EU in his promised talks, will he urge that we leave? Not a chance. The EU apparatus knows this, so why should they give him anything in these discussions?
    IN THAT case, what is the point of the planned negotiations? To provide the illusion of change when no real change is possible, short of this country leaving the EU. The EU does not give up powers that it has taken, any more than a crocodile gives up its lunch.
    Will there be any serious rules to stop the promised referendum being rigged, as the last one was in 1975? No. The great bulk of the press, the entire BBC and the front benches of all three Establishment parties will campaign for us to stay in, cheered on by whoever is in the White House at the time.
    So even if this dubious vote is held, is there a serious chance of a vote to leave? No.
    In the remote event of us voting to leave, will Parliament obey the will of the people? Most unlikely. It will not be legally obliged to do so, and there is no majority of MPs for departure. Far more likely is another ‘renegotiation’ followed by a rerun of the vote to make sure we get the ‘right’ result. If you doubt this, look at what has happened when other EU countries have voted the ‘wrong’ way.
    As it happens, these questions are largely irrelevant, as the Conservative Party will not win the 2015 Election, so Mr Cameron will not have his negotiations or his referendum.
