Class War – 2015 Elections, It’s Going To Get Messy

No War But The Class War

Some people might remember us street urchins from the 80’s, we were and still are: Class War, we sold our unruly tabloid, created mayhem in the streets, we even got branded by the Sunday People as the most dangerous group in the UK for targeting the rich and famous, namely the EastEnders stars who were buying up working class properties in London for profit, fast forward 30 odd years and now we are a registered political party ready to fight, and I do mean fight, in the general election 2015, have we went soft ? Have we fuck, we still want working class equality, we still want the rich out of our communities, we still want the Monarchy abolished and we still want the public school system smashed, and foremost we still stand by our motto “By Any Means Necessary” although we are taking to the regulated political forum to get our voices heard we are as unruly and noisy as we were before.

I am a prospective candidate for Class War for the Renfrewshire East constituency, never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would stand in an election, considering I have never voted in one, until they get a “none of the above” box to show our contempt for politicians I will continue to waste my vote by writing “Liars, Cheats & Thieves” across my ballot paper.  but now we have a party who we can vote for, a party who we know stand up for real working class issues that affect real working class people without the bullshit that the mainstream politicians adhere to. Just look at recent events in the political world we have the Labour Party siding with the Conservatives on Austerity measures resulting in a further £30 billion of cuts due, they sided with them on keeping Trident another £100 billion down the tubes and they also voted with them on Fracking rights, if these are the actions of a so called “Working Class” party then we are all fucked, there is now no alternative when the parties merge into one, they are all out to gain profit from the people they are supposed to represent and the companies that sponsor them, you just need to look at the expenses scandal to see this, politicians these days have no morals whatsoever.

The main competition I have in my Constituency is Jim Murphy, Scottish Labour party leader, he does have a large majority in that area but hopefully due to his ridiculous campaigning in the Scottish referendum and his two faced attitude to his constituents will mean that this majority will be slashed considerably. This muppet tried to win the peoples hearts by touring the area and standing on an Irn Bru crate (a popular soft drink in Scotland, our other national drink the makers tell us) and spouting platitudes about why we would be better together, this prick was heckled in nearly every area he went to speak, You Tube videos confirm this, he seems to think that Labour will win the day for just being Labour, the old guard will come out and save the day for Mr Murphy, I don’t believe that it will be as cut and dried as that, the people are getting wise to his lies and two faced attitude to policies that affect the working class in this area. We are also getting sick and tired of topping up politicians salaries with expenses.

Do we really want this prick representing us for another four years ? let’s look at his track record:

Jim Murphy voted for the Iraq War and voted against the investigation into the Iraq War.
he voted against laws to promote equality and human rights.
he voted against having less MPs at Westminster.
he voted for ID Cards to be introduced.
he didn’t bother to turn up to vote to scrap the bedroom tax.
he didn’t bother to turn up to vote to recognise the state of Palestine. he has claimed over £1 MILLION in expenses since 2001, he rents out his London home while claiming £20,000 in housing costs for another home he rents in London, and he nominates his constituency home in Glasgow as second home, where he claimed £780 a month mortgage interest payments in 2007-08,he also claimed £4,884 for bathroom renovation from B&Q but paid just £3,499 back into allowance.

Is this the actions of someone who has the peoples interest at heart, IS IT FUCK, he is a parasite, a drain on our society, he has no plans to save the NHS, he has no plans to raise employment, he has no plans to introduce a mansion tax, he has no plans to raise the taxation for the rich and wealthy that constantly take and give fuck all back, he does however want to continue to hold the nuclear threat over us, he does want the poorest of our society to remain so, he does want the richest in our society to remain so and he does only want to look out for himself.

Wankers !

Class War will continue to fight against all inequality against the working class regardless of the results in the election that IS guaranteed, we are still essentially a grassroots organisation that has only one goal, to rid our society of inequality in wealth, we want a level playing field within which we can build decent communities that don’t rely on the people begging for state handouts, starving people relying on food banks to feed a family, we don’t want to fear for the struggling NHS we want to be able to care for our sick and infirm, we need to utilize derelict houses in order to house the homeless, there are enough buildings to house everyone, we only need to pull together to make this happen.

My message to Jim Murphy is, the game is up, we are wise to your lies and theft, and we are sick of you siding with the very party that has put us in this state we are in, namely the Tory party, you are nothing but a red Tory, you want to cheat the working class into voting for you so you can live the life of the rich and privileged you want to aspire to. It’s time your reign ended.

Winning !

‘Till the next time……..

Anarchy, Peace, Freedom, Equality and May 7th Vote Class War…. Because ALL the other candidates are scum.

What A Hunt (sic) sorry…. Cunt

If the latest news on NHS managerial bonuses are anything to go by then it makes everything clear as to how much the Tory party despise the working class, Jeremy Hunt has decided to reward the top management by giving them a whopping 36% pay rise, while the Ambulance staff, Nurses, Midwifes and Health visitors have had the salaries cut by 1 – 2 %, doctors did manage to get a measly 1% pay rise, whoop de fucking do.

Jeremy Hunt – Not Rhyming Slang Apparently!

Campaign group Cure the NHS, attacked the rises, founder Julie Bailey said:

“NHS managers are already paid well enough. The public will be very unhappy with this, in times of austerity it doesn’t seem that we are ‘all in this together’ as people seem to suggest.”

Unison union’s head of health Christina McAnea added: “Once again the top earners look after themselves,  the value of health workers’ pay has fallen by as much as 14%. Some members are resorting to food banks for help, if managers are worth an increase then staff on the ground are worth it too.”

Figures, from the Health and Social Care ­Information Centre, reveal that 10,000 NHS managers ­pocketed an average of £6,596 on top of their basic salary of £78,000 in the last 12 months – up 41% on the year before.

Another 25,000 got an extra £3,956 each, a 35% rise to boost their £49,000 salaries.

But nurses’ non-basic pay was £3,892, down 1% on the previous year. Midwives earned £4,823 – a 2% drop.

Health visitors were hit by a 7% fall leaving them with £932 in non-basic pay.

The Department For Health insisted some of the 36% rise would have been in payoffs for axed posts, it’s not the posts that need axing it’s fucking Hunt’s head from his scrawny little body.

We’ll Get You

A Department of Health spokesman said: “Managers’ pay should be subject to greater restraint than frontline staff. We are working with NHS England to make sure this happens.” if this is not a slap in the face of the nurses, midwives and health visitors then I don’t know what is, clearly outlining that management will always be paid exorbitant amounts of cash more that the frontline staff, you know the ones that get spat on, threatened, verbally abused and attacked on a regular basis, would make you fucking sick if it were not for the fact you don’t want to overwork the staff any more than they are.

New NHS boss Simon Stevens ordered a clampdown on lavish spending after figures this week showed nine health chiefs blew almost £200,000 last year on fine dining and hotels. this would be for the top bosses to plot on how to shit on the staff further.

This is a fucking farce, was it not David Cameron who stated at the start of his reign as Prime Minister “We’re all in it together, one big society” my fucking arse, we’re in it to make you and your scumbag rich friends richer, you cunt. you and your likes make my blood boil, announcing that we all must make sacrifices, what fucking sacrifices have you  made Dave? eh, I’ll tell you fuck all.

War Inc. At It Again

A new bombing campaign was voted for in Parliament a couple of days ago to rid us and the Iraqi people of the threat of ISIL/ISIS, now correct me if I’m wrong but didn’t Tony Blair start an illegal war back in 2003 telling us that this would stop this type of thing happening in the future? I think he did.

Just on a side note I still constantly piss myself laughing that he became the EU reprasentative as a Middle East Envoy, fuckin’ classic.

Anyway, what the fuck is going on here, we arm ISIL/ISIS in order to fight some other middle eastern people who don’t like the west, then ISIL/ISIS decide to turn on the countries who want them out, the other countries call on the west to assist in this, problem being we don’t necessarily like or agree with these countries governmental policy, but, we do like their association with Saudi Arabia, and do NOT want to piss them off, if we do who will we buy our oil from, who will we sell our luxury goods to, and most importantly who will buy masses and masses of our weapons.

Stop The War

So, again we sell these countries weapons and ammunition in order to kill and maim their enemies, their enemies might be friends of ours so we then arm them to fight back, double kerching for the Department of Defense and the arms dealers, next stage is the countries involved in conflict are then tasked with rebuilding their towns and cities, more than likely they will contact our government to assist with this, creating more wealth for our UK warmongers and supporters, meanwhile the innocent citizens from these countries are left to deal with the devastation of lost homes, loved ones and stability.

In his speech David Cameron stated the this conflict “could last for years if not decades”, and if the figures are to be believed it could cost up to £3 billion to finance it, how much of that money could be used to fight poverty in the UK? He also stated that the new campaign has nothing to do with the pervious conflict that war criminal Blair led us into, well this is a bunch of lies, he also stated that “this conflict cannot be solved by perceived grievances over western foreign policies, nor can it be solved by dealing with poverty, dictatorship, or instability in the region” What fucking absolute bullshit, it is poverty, dictatorships and instability that has brought this situation about, the west has created this instability by bombing the shit out of their country and killing their people 11 years ago, this in turn has produced poverty, land which was used for growing crops  now house minefields, sanitation has went to shit, if you pardon the pun, and a new dictator has been put in place, a new dictator that has been sanctioned by the west to control the people and to bring more wealth to the west mind you, it’s simple economics, that’s how a capitalist system works, keep the poor controlled, keep the wealthy rich and in power.

Burn The Rich

My message to David Cameron is, Britain is not under direct threat from ISIS/ISIL, why? because they do not operate in our country, they do not occupy our country, period, they have occupied countries that you want to do business with, countries that you want to exploit in the name of capitalism, the British citizens that have defected to these terrorist organizations are a direct result of your neglect to include them as part of British culture, you continually harass them for their skin colour and religious beliefs and then wonder why they feel left out! The biggest threat to your government and power is us the normal british people, you know that your policies neglect our needs, you have allowed our industries to be closed creating mass unemployment, you have eroded our National Health Service to the point of destruction, you have sold off all our publicly owned businesses and we are getting sick and tired of it and WE can end your reign of power, and it scares you shitless that there could be a revolution in your own country perpetrated by you and your like and the revolution will be fought by normal working class people which little or nothing to lose, so, how do you protect this? by using scare tactics, war, terrorism, drugs, and tell us that these things are all out there threatening our simple way of life, but don’t worry, your friendly politician will take all these scary things away from you, just let us do what we want and you can settle down to watch the latest episode of Coronation Street or some other mind numbing TV show, play your computer games, just don’t take any interest in what we do, stay at home, don’t come out, it’s too scary for you, they try to keep us subservient don’t allow us to question anything, do that and everything will be OK.

 

Wankers !

Well it’s not OK, our country is fucked, we are all fucking sick of it and it will result in your downfall, we do have a voice, we won’t stay off the streets, we won’t remain quiet, in fact quite the opposite, one day we will reclaim the streets, we will reclaim the jobs that are rightfully ours and we will rebuild our Health Service that the people of Britain deserve.

Fuckin’ Frack Off

A week after Scotland voted No in the independence referendum after added devolution powers were promised today it was announced by the UK Government that they are to remove the rights of householders to object to oil and gas drilling and hydraulic fracturing beneath their homes, this controversial process commonly known as Fracking, this will include householders in Scotland, and despite 99 per cent of respondents to the UK Government consultation on the proposals objecting to them.

What does it mean for me and you, well fracking companies will have legal rights to drill below people’s land without first negotiating a right of access.

Scotland’s Energy Minister Fergus Ewing did officially object to the proposals and has condemned the decision, and has called for the key powers relating to this issue to be devolved to Scotland as part of the current devolution process. This would allow unconventional oil and gas exploration in Scotland to be considered in a cautious, considered and evidence-based way, as opposed to the “gung-ho” approach of the UK Government.

Commenting Mr Ewing said:

“The UK Government failure to listen to our concerns is of great worry. That they have also failed to listen to 99 per cent of respondents to their own consultation just emphasises their “gung-ho” approach to the whole issue of fracking. We strongly believe that decisions on oil and gas drilling should be made by the people who live in Scotland, through the Parliament and Government they elected.

“UK Government proposals to remove the right of Scottish householders to object to drilling under their homes, without so much as debate in the Scottish Parliament, flies in the face of Scotland’s cautious, considered and evidence based approach on this issue. It is also fundamentally an issue affecting land ownership rights.

“Whatever your view on the issue of unconventional oil and gas – and it is clear that there are both opportunities and concerns – there is only one way that the people of Scotland can determine the approach in Scotland – including beneath their homes and land. That is with the devolution of the necessary powers to Scotland and the current devolution process for the “extensive new powers” promised in the vow should include these powers.

Fuck Fracking, Burn The Rich

What is “Fracking” and why should we be concerned, fracking also called “hydraulic fracturing,” is a destructive process that drilling companies use to extract natural gas and oil from rock that lies deep underground. They drill a deep well and inject millions of gallons of toxic fracking fluid – a mix of water, sand and harsh chemicals – at a high enough pressure to fracture the rock and release the oil or gas.

Fracking is exempt from major environmental laws, including the Safe Drinking Water Act, and spills and accidents are far too common.
Each drilling well requires 400 tankers of water and other supplies, these supplies being transported all around the country by road in trucks powered by fossil fuel, so the supposedly environmentally green fuel uses old fuel methods to begin the process, yeah, very environmentally friendly.
It takes up to 8 million gallons of water to complete each fracture job, this water is then mixed with sand and chemicals to create the “fracking fluid”, 40,000 gallons of chemicals are used in this process, some of the chemicals used in this process (up to 600 different chemicals are used in the mixture) include: Lead, Uranium, Mercury, Ethylene Glycol, Methanol, Hydrochloric Acid and Formaldehyde. yummy.
After a forcing job has been completed methane gas and other toxic chemicals can leak from the pipeline and contaminate ground water supplies, water supplies that can be used for human consumption, still convinced that this is a green fuel source?
It has been found that methane concentration is 17 times higher in drinking water near wells at fracturing sites than normal wells located away from them, in the USA 1000 cases of contaminated water supplies have been found next to areas of drilling causing cases of sensory, respiratory and neurological damage by ingestion, this drilling practice sounds better by the minute eh folks? definitely no danger there.
At the end of the drilling process only 30 – 50% of the fracturing fluid is recovered, the rest is left in the ground and is NOT biodegradable, whoopee, sounds as clean and safe as nuclear power.
Waste fluid that is recovered is left in open pits to evaporate releasing harmful Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) into the atmosphere creating contaminated air, acid rain and ground level ozone.

Fight Fracking

Still convinced that this process is as green and necessary as the Government makes out? OK figures show that up to 300,000 barrels of gas can be produced from one well, but at what cost? environmental disaster, structural damage to the ground that our houses, businesses and schools are all built upon, human disease and long term health hazards, all sounds fucking great, where do I sign up!

All joking aside, this is a fucked up process all geared up to make government officials and the fracking companies very, very rich, all at our expense, in the future what do our children and grandchildren have to look forward to? deformed new born babies due to contaminated drinking water while pregnant, sterility in males resulting in reduced population in the coming years, vast areas of countryside polluted, urban areas polluted to the extent that they become uninhabitable, the list goes on.
Contact your local councillor, your local MP, form local anti fracking groups, meet up, march, sign any and all petitions regardless if they are doing this in your area, it just might come, most of all be vocal against fracking.

Racism Rears It’s Ugly Head….. Again

This week a study into racial prejudice was released and the figures are quite frankly shocking, figures of people openly admitting to being racially prejudiced showed that one third of British citizens admitted to being prejudiced, this to me is abhorrent. One of the more shocking statistics showed that it was not just down to the usual moronic working class skinhead but educated middle class professionals now showed a racist attitude, these people should know better. Another thing that has shocked me is a UKIP candidate was elected in my own country (Scotland), I expected more from my fellow countrymen, to elect one of this party’s candidates is a travesty, this party does not only show racist tendencies but also sexist views, why anyone with half a brain would vote for them is beyond me.

Back to the rise in racism in Britain, what really makes me laugh is, the BNP, UKIP, Britain First and the likes all base their policies on getting immigration down, stop Johnny Foreigner stealing our jobs, that’s a fucking laugh in itself due to the fact that most of these idiots screaming for deportation of the immigrants are unemployed in the first place, but I digress, our so called “patriotic” parties march and campaign under the union flag and allegiance to the Queen, do these mindless fuckers not realize that our Queen (Gawd Bless you Ma’am) is fucking German, and her hubby, the hapless Duke of Edinburgh is Greek, the very people they look up to and would fight for are fucking foreign, being an Anti Royalist I would happily send these leeches back to their respective countries in a minute, I’ll fucking drive them to the airport myself.

UKIP leader Farage himself has a German wife for fuck sake, surely she’s an immigrant stealing a British job, and yet the UKIP supporters turn a blind eye to the outright hypocracy that contaminates the political system, and not just the fascist parties. If most of the racists that are members of these parties and follow the hype traced their family tree’s I’m pretty sure they would find they are not the blond haired, blue eyed Aryans they would like to believe they are, even the religion they follow is not English they pray to a Jewish deity for Christ sake (no pun intended), they more than likely drive a foreign car, wear clothes produced in the far east, eat curries, both Chinese and Indian, and yet they they are so blinded by hatred that they can’t see the irony in their fight for racial purity.

This is one planet, we are all human beings, if we helped one another to make the place a better place to live in instead of hating each other because we have a different colour skin or pray to a different god then we would advance as a race, instead we allow these fucking halfwits to influence us to have a view that should be completley alien to us, as children we know no colour difference, we know no religious difference, children only see others as people, why do we allow this innocence to be lost? It’s up to us all to spread the message of Anti Fascism, just as we did in the 70’s with the Anti Nazi movement, let’s eradicate racism to the realms of history, and allow the human race to prosper the way it should do.

Woolwich Murder Madness

Last Wednesday afternoon a Soldier was brutally attacked and killed in broad daylight and just before the tea time rush, two men were responsible for the attack and one of the men, his hands covered in blood, holding a blood stained machete confronted a bystander who was filming the event, and surprise surprise he starts preaching Islamic rhetoric about how the West should remove the troops from Islamic countries and that our Governments do not care about us, he went on to say:

“We swear by almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you.

We must fight them as they fight us. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.”

He went on to say: “I apologise that women had to witness this today, but in our land our women have to see the same.”

The strange thing about the last statement is the part “In our land our women have to see the same” the man spoke in a broad London accent no trace of him being from foreign climes, and according to reports he was an Islamic convert during his student years, so it begs the question, what land is he talking about? It would seem that he has never left the UK, so again some more religious bollocks being spouted by some moron who cannot think for themselves, this is the problem with religious zealots they can quote religious mantras until the cows (sacred or otherwise) come home but are incapable of forming coherent rational thoughts of their own accord, they depend on whatever leader they have to fill their heads with any reasoning that can justify their actions. I have said it before and I will say it again, Religion has no part in a 21st Century world, it was created to keep people in fear and by using imaginary deities to control the masses, we can prove there is no God through our advances in science so we should therefore eradicate religion in the same way we eradicated the Plague.

It is a frightening enough situation to think that these evil minded blinkered religious nut cases are roaming our streets but what it also does is give fuel to the fire of patriotic jingoism from the likes of Nigel Farage, of the UK Independent party and Nick Griffen of the BNP, these racist scum will live off of this event for months to further their promotion of their immigration policy that they wish to implement. This country prides itself with being diverse and free, things that we must fight to hold on to, we must look beyond this horrendous attack by these animals as not all muslims think this way, to blindly attack anyone within the muslim community solves nothing, just as countless wars, religious or otherwise, have in the past.

Have we learned nothing from our evolution over the past million years or so, violence solves nothing, it breeds violence and contempt, wars can never be won, as the famous slogan from Crass says, just look at the recent events in the Middle East no sooner were the troops out of Iraq and then Afghanistan pops up, the root cause is religious bigotry and hatred and it’s this fight that must continue, by educating the inhabitants of the planet of ours that we must strive to survive by causing the least suffering as possible.

My thoughts are with the family of the young soldier who died so brutally, no one deserves to shed this mortal coil in that brutal way.

ACAP? – All Coppers Are Precious

Home Secretary Theresa May announced plans yesterday that a change in legislation will be proposed to give Judges the power to dole out life sentences to anyone that kills a police officer, her reasons for the Governments proposals, “To kill a police officer was to attack the fundamental basis of our society” Mrs May was quoted.

A very admirable statement but, why are police officers elevated to a higher status than the rest of the public, is a police officers life more important than a teacher, social worker, a nurse or a doctor?, Lest we forget us mere mortal voters, the life blood of a politicians career, why are we not given this protection? Why don’t our families have the piece of mind that if a member of our family was killed the murderer would spend the remainder of their life behind bars?

Protect These Defenceless Public Servants

Are we not a society based on “Thou shalt not kill” and this should cover ALL members of the society not just the law keepers, I’m not apologetic in any way in saying that PC Plod is no more important than my wife or any of my children and, perish the thought, should someone murder any of my family, I would expect the sentence to be the same as if any police officer was killed, no one is more important than another, “All animals are equal, some more than others” as Mr Orwell wrote, well it would seem so. I do respect that the police will come up against violent perpetuators on a daily basis but, and this also goes for anyone who enrols as part of the armed services, this is the job you signed up to do, you take the risks as you do the spoils. It is a given right that everyone in society should be kept safe, it is also a moral factor that we should look out for each other too.

In this day and age it would seem that the more affluent of our society do “get away with it” and to devolve more protection to certain sections of our society seems unfair, just look at the pitiful sentences given out to politicians with regards to their expenses fraud, Chris Huhne released after just 62 days of an 8 month sentence, left to scurry back to his £1.2 million mansion and carry on from where he left, and don’t get me started on the fucking bankers who have eluded prosecution altogether for the banking scandal, I know these are lesser crimes than murder but the accused received less than fair sentences than any of the ‘normal’ people, and in my opinion this must stop.

If the Police get special dispensation for attacks against them then, who watches over them and when will the next Ian Tomlinson type incident happen, Simon Harwood, the constable charged with manslaughter over the death was, surprise surprise, freed, despite video footage of the officer striking Mr Tomlinson on the leg and then pushed to the ground for no apparent reason, verdict, natural causes due to heart attack, yes but brought on by a violent act by the police, the prosecution rests your honour……

The Fall….. Of Mark E. Smith ?

Hot sticky night in Glasgow, ABC was the venue for yet another Fall event, I call it an event rather than a gig as recently you couldn’t call what The Fall were doing live as a gig in the traditional sense. We have now got used to Mark’s antics on stage, Knob twiddling, improvisation on drums using the microphone and messing with Eleni’s keyboard, and we also expect it, nay require it.

Rare… All Band Members On Stage

But I am racing on to the end before I’ve even started, The concert was started by Glasgow band Big Ned, never heard of them before so I watched with anticipation as the first few chords spewed from the sound system, very reminiscent of the Cramps, Alabama 3 type of thing, then the singing came in, I say singing, it was more talking intermingled with a bit of shouting, was entertaining enough for around three songs or so then it was wearing a bit thin, next…….

Second support act was the Rosy Crucifixion, again another new band for my ears, again the sound was very Cramp-esque, the three piece were OK, might give them another listen.

The lights dim, the cheers go up, camera’s and phones are held aloft in order to get the first pictures of Mark entering stage right, the backing track goes on, and on, and on, at least 5 to 6 minutes, then the band come on, and start the first song, a short time later enter Mark E. rapturous applause greets him he then proceeds to start his “live mixing” this entails him fucking about with the amps for the guitars, bass and keyboards, instead of enhancing the sound he does the exact opposite and completely fucks up the sound of the guitar, and the keyboards continued throughout the gig by either deafening us as the settings were all to pot or too low to even hear, now this would not have been a problem had we been entertained by the singers wit and repartee as we are normally used to but he then hides behind the guitar amps and sings most of the songs, appearing briefly at the front on occasion, the lyrics, that I have admired for many a year, were more incomprehensible than normal, making for an even more unenjoyable experience, this series of events carried on throughout the gig, he even had a sound man route the microphone through to behind the backdrop and had a secondary microphone handed in to the crowd and subjected us to some “wee girl” shout during Blindness “Fuck The State, Fuck the Government”, not what I paid for. The only saving grace was them doing Mr Pharmacist, not heard that in many a year, but to pay £23 for one decent song is not on, the band stormed off stage before returning to do The Theme From Sparta FC, Mark E. supplied minimal contribution to it leaving Eleni to complete the vocals, it was one of the best songs of the night but sadly the damage was already done.

Mark E. Missing In Action…. Again

Mr Smith treated us all like mugs and I for one will seriously reconsider going to see them the next time, I would like to point out that the other band members were not to blame for this abysmal performance and as they stormed off they did seem perturbed at the nights proceedings, but again they just stormed off not even acknowledging the crowd which angered some of us, myself included.

As Fall fans we have all been disappointed by at least one or two performances throughout the years but for me this is the straw that broke the camels back, what was once Smith’s quirkiness has now developed into the downright rude, and to disrespect his loyal fans is shameful.

Food Standard Agency – Fucking Stupid Arseholes

I could not believe my eyes yesterday, I was catching up on the news and this headline caught my eye on the BBC website, “Store pulls monkey nuts from shelves over ‘peanut warning’“, it appears that North of England supermarket chain Booth’s packaged it’s own brand monkey nuts without a nut allergy warning, the supermarket has removed 300 packets of 350g Whole Hearted Roasted Monkey Nuts from its shelves. Booths has apologised and subsequently warned customers with a peanut allergy not to consume the product.

Booths technical manager Waheed Hassan said: “It is our responsibility as retailers to accurately record allergy advice,  “In this instance, we felt a responsibility to recall the product and issue a notice to our customers who might suffer from a specific peanut allergy.”

What The Fuck !!, I had to check the calendar today I thought I had found the “April Fool” news story, well ladies and gentlemen I hope you, like myself have learned something, Monkey Nuts contain peanuts, well who fucking knew! just to clarify what a monkey nut actually is, monkey nut’s are peanuts with the shell or pod intact. to reiterate A PEANUT with shell or pod intact, just incase you didn’t get it second time A FUCKING PEANUT. if you have a peanut allergy the thing you steer clear of are fucking peanuts, regardless of the packaging having a warning or not a peanut is a fucking peanut don’t fucking eat it moron.

Booth’s went on to add to their statement:

“If you have an allergy to peanuts, please do not consume this product.”

No shit Sherlock, talk about stating the obvious.

What kind of moron’s have we been breeding over the last few years, if anyone with a nut allergy knowingly buys a product containing nuts and then consumes them, well frankly they deserve all they get, where does this stop, are we going to label everything to stop the moron brigade killing themselves, this my friends is preventing evolution progressing, getting rid of morons is paramount to human survival, they, moron’s that is, do have their place, for example on Harry Hill’s “You’ve Been Framed” morons doing stupid shit for the £250 reward tell us what not to do, like bouncing on a trampoline while on a bike and trying to juggle fire, under the influence of alcohol, you get the picture.

I expect to see further stories about someone who was killed because there was no warning on the car that ran them over, a warning saying this car will kill when hitting humans at high speed, or do we require warnings on our kitchen implements, warning these knives will cut your fucking fingers off. where will it all end.

I used to wonder about our ever growing “Nanny State” and is it really necessary to print every piece of information about a product, well seems so, the “Morons Are Us” maternity wing has opened it’s doors and spawned the earth with muppets.

Luis Suarez…. Bite Me!

At the weekend during the Liverpool v Chelsea match Luis Suarez struck again, no not another glorious goal, or some scintillating skilful football in which he leaves a number of defenders in his wake, nor was it the other side of Suarez that we’ve become accustomed to, the diving, the cheating handballs that have blotched his copybook all through his career, but this action takes on a whole new concept, he tried to bite, yes bite Branislav Ivanovic on the arm after being tackled by the Chelsea defender, then Suarez has the audacity to start to hold his hip and jump around on the spot as if he has been wronged, what is wrong with him, Luis what is going on in that head of yours, to bite a fellow professional after he has won a fair challenge.

Luis Auditions for the new “Dracula” movie

What Suarez did was nothing more than a petulant infant would do when things aren’t going their way, and just to reiterate this is an infant I’m talking about, not a fully grown adult. but then again after his shenanigans in previous games this doesn’t come as any surprise. although Suarez publicly apologised for his actions to Ivanovic, if I was Ivanovic I would have told him where to shove it, what infuriates me about Suarez is he is a very talented player and to resort to biting a fellow professional is nothing more than scandalous. I hope that the FA dish out a lengthy ban to Suarez and although he has been fined, and the amount has been undisclosed and going by what he gets paid this will be a drop in the ocean to him, this ban should reflect in what he has done and hopefully allow him to take a long hard look at himself. The attack on Ivanovich is assault and should be treated as such by the FA, look at the way they dealt with Cantona’s attack on the Crystal Palace suporter, that seemed harsh at the time and so should the punishment dealt to Suarez.
