Theresa May In Tears

JS122250474.jpg

Theresa May’s smiling face as she drove to a meeting with Tory MPs quickly turned to thunder after backbenchers demanded she finally quit amid the Brexit chaos, and the emotional confrontation left the Prime Minister visibly unsettled, but as she grappled with her emotions, up stepped pretentious Boris Johnson to announce he was ready to spring into her shoes, as the blundering Foreign Secretary was leading the race amongst Tory competitors to succeed her.

Boris Johnson, whose career has been peppered with a series of awkward blunders and misrepresentations, said: “I’m going to go for it, of course, I’m going to go for it.” But allies maintained the crass timing of his announcement was a fluke, and some Tories have stated that they will resign the party if Boris Johnson becomes Prime Minister.

Theresa May’s impending exit has reverberations of Margaret Thatcher’s choice to stand down in 1990 following talks with the chairman of the 1922 committee convinced her that it was time to go. She was later pictured in tears being driven away from Downing Street for the last time, to the nation’s satisfaction, and one source following the 90 minute showdown portrayed Theresa May as very tearful. Although one source in the room rebuffed Theresa May cried or had a tear in her eye, instead insisting she was stoic.

She had been made to agree to set an exit day in her meeting, but she was given three weeks to again try to pass her doomed Withdrawal Agreement Bill in the week ending June 3 after they accepted a plea from her, and cabinet ministers and the Tory whip’s office think her Brexit proposals have essentially zero chance of passing.

It means failure would trigger her departure and a leadership contest before the summer recess, but allies think she wants to go before an embarrassing no-confidence vote amongst Tory members.

Will she go following the Withdrawal Bill falls and before the grassroots call for her too?

Labour has stated it will vote against the EU deal unless it changes dramatically while the hardline DUP and Tory Brexiteers are against it, and one number 10 insider predicted that Theresa May will still be at least 80 MPs short to pass the bill, and if the Bill falls, everyone knows what comes after that.

A Tory backbench announced that they’ve agreed to meet to determine the timetable for the election of a new leader of the party as soon as the second reading has transpired, and that will take place regardless of what the vote is on the second reading, whether it passes or whether it fails.

But one supporter of the Prime Minister explained how she warned MPs if the Bill was defeated there would be no Brexit, and before the meeting in the Prime Minister’s Commons office, MP Geoffrey Clifton-Brown announced it would be much more dignified for Theresa May to select a date to resign, and her former chief-of-staff, Nick Timothy, announced it was “beyond time for the PM to accept that the game is up”.

And there was pressure for the contest to take place before the summer so the new Prime Minister could hit the ground running, but with such a broad field it could take months, with a leader announced at party conference this autumn.

More than a dozen MPs are expected to go for the job, with Esther McVey, Andrea Leadsom and Rory Stewart already in the running, with big hitters Jeremy Hunt, Michael Gove and Sajid Javid who are also expected to compete.

Boris Johnson is understood to be pressing Tory MPs with small majorities in marginal seats to back him, and he thinks he’s the only one who can redeem seats vulnerable to Labour or Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party.

Home Secretary Mr Javid took a thinly-veiled swipe at Mr Johnson, who once said “f*** business” when told of companies’ concerns over a hard Brexit. He said: “It is right that we as the Conservative Party do more to reclaim our position as the party of business, but especially the party of small business.”

Theresa May’s Brexit vote is scheduled to take place when Donald Trump’s in Britain and the Peterborough by-election takes place and claims she could stay and enter more talks with the EU were rejected, and one source said that she doesn’t want to go to Brussels again, ever.

Don’t the Conservatives feel ashamed and embarrassed at the way their senior cabinet ministers are acting in respect to the leadership? And has moral ethics been swept away in the wave of selfishness and self-interest?

Every Tory leader learns at some point to never trust a Tory, but Boris Johnson has been undermining the Conservatives in every way he can, with his own self-interest, since he re-joined parliament, having been banned for life from ever being an MP again.

He truly is a lowlife falsehearted reprobate, so how can they reward his disruptive behaviour with the prime position of Prime Minister? Because in all fairness, he really is a damn annoyance. But then not feeling remorse is part of being a Tory.

Let’s face it, most MP’s are in it for themselves. Look at what a lousy, incompetent Home Secretary Theresa May was and yet they voted her in to be Prime Minister. She was never actually fit for purpose as Member of Parliament and to make her Prime Minister was a sham.

michael-gove-pm-brexit.jpg

Most of those around her can’t be trusted, especially Michael Gove who keeps a knife nearby for stabbing his fellow ministers in the back whilst professing to support them.

They all know that Theresa May’s deal is not Brexit and yet most of the cabinet voted for it, so in fact, they’re no more honourable than she is. So, it’s quite amusing when they address each other as “my honourable friend” in parliament because they really don’t know the definition of the word.

Sadly Boris Johnson will do and say whatever he believes will get him what he wants at the time, and he simply says the best thing at the time, along with a lie here and there for good measure, but then he’s pretty good at manufacturing inaccuracies, after all, he did work for the Times, and was fired by the Times for manufacturing the truth, and it appears he’s particularly good at it.

But does no one care about the ease at which these deceptions pour out of his mouth? And if he can lie with this much expertise, how easy would it be for him to lie as Prime Minister? And if Theresa May was tearful, it was seemingly out of frustration with the bunch of nefarious and incompetent conservatives who encircle her.

Just look at them, Boris Johnson is a gaffe-prone bumbling so-called intelligent nincompoop. Then you have Liam Fox, the man who certainly shouldn’t have access to any state secrets given his performance in a former cabinet role, and who seemingly has done precious little in the last 3 years to earn his pay.

an137395615epa06397121-brit.jpg

Gavin Williamson, who’s the grown-up kid, and David Davis, the lethargic inept fool. Dominic Raab, a man who doesn’t know the significance of Dover and who negotiates a deal even he didn’t vote for.

uEgaoHPq.jpg

Stephen Barclay, another who recommends an amendment and then doesn’t vote for himself. Michael Gove, the man that no one trusts, and never turn your back, the list could go on, so should we feel sorry for Theresa May being encompassed by this lot? And if any one of these gets to be Prime Minister, heaven help us!

Theresa May might not be the most charismatic leader or speaker, but she has worked her backside off since she’s been Prime Minister, and as for a potential replacement, Boris Johnson, the horn-dog cheater, he will make Theresa May look like genius, and his work ethic works best when it involves lust, after all, his new love is 24 years younger than him, how on earth will he find time to make political choices whilst he lays exhausted between the erotic bedsheets and his lover next to him soliciting more?

There are many people out there who don’t like Theresa May, nor do they think that she’s a good Prime Minister because she’s not, but these backbenchers or gentlemen in grey suits performance is nothing short of bullying in the workplace.

Theresa May gained a vote of confidence back in December which was valid for 12 months under Conservative Rules, but if this was an independent company they would have been hauled up in front of an employment tribunal on all sorts of allegations.

But this lot believe they’re above the law and want to shift the goalposts to suit themselves, and they’re a bloody-minded disgrace. They had the opportunity to remove her through the appropriate channels in December but were too concerned about their own prospects and still are, and they’re certainly not doing what’s best for this country or acting within the laws of this country, and we shouldn’t trust any of these MP’s as far as we can throw them, and there certainly isn’t a lot of hope whilst this lot are in government.

And it’s truly incredible that this idiot, Boris Johnson is being taken as a serious competitor to lead our country, not that anyone else would be any better, but we can only pray that they will find a leader with some dedication and compassion towards their country, and you couldn’t possibly feel sorry for the Tories who are evidently madcap because they’ve caused so much misery and death upon the working people of this country, and it does make you question how another human being could be that heartless.

And there should be no sympathy about Theresa May crying because she’s made a lot of people cry or die, maybe now she knows some of how it feels, and I would never vote Tory, possibly when I receive my herd of unicorns and my pot of gold from the end of the rainbow I’ll vote Tory.

I would rather scoop my eyes out with a spoon than vote Tory because they embody everything I don’t believe in and that many people don’t believe in, especially when they offer lower tax for the wealthy and lower standards for the poor.

I mean, what’s the point of having a job if it only offers subsistence wages? And as for higher living standards, have you seen the street sleepers, food banks, and child poverty?

The Tories promised the British a unicorn and all we got was a donkey with an ice cream cone stuck on its head, they lied and they keep lying, anything for self-interest and nothing for anyone else, and just as you think things can’t get any worse Boris Johnson surfaces.

And in an incredible delivery for Britain’s prime political position, Boris Johnson opened his mouth yet again and unveiled an unlikely hero, the Mayor from Jaws.

In the 1975 movie, Amity Island mayor Larry Vaughn refuses to close the beaches despite the panic as a great white shark gorge on swimmers.

But Boris Johnson told the audience the character could provide motivation at a time when Britain needs ‘politicians who aren’t afraid of some short-term downside to their own political careers’.

‘The hero of Jaws is obviously the mayor,’ he declared.

Boris Johnson said he ‘saw the pressure and stress on the shops and businesses’ of Amity Island as the shark spread terror among beach-goers.

‘In real life, he would have been right,’ he continued.

Although he acknowledged the mayor’s judgment was ultimately questionable, and Boris Johnson said ‘sometimes we’ve also got to be bold and think for the long term’.

Of course, Boris Johnson screwed up again – the shark won. A titanic blunder by Boris Johnson, or was he alluding to him taking down the barriers which enabled the terrorists to attack London? His point was pretty hazy, he can’t even come up with any good comparisons, and he appears to like disaster movies, after all, his new bird is from a Stephen King novel (Carrie).

Theresa May reads like Margaret Thatcher, not a glimmer of emotion as they rip lives apart of thousands of families, but when they’ve outlived their usefulness they’re self-indulgent and blubbering.

Theresa May in tears and what about all those people in tears who’ve lost loved ones by having their benefits terminated, and what about all those elderly people in tears who can’t afford to feed themselves and heat their homes, and what about all those victims of stabbings in tears, did the despicable Tories shed any tears for them, of course not.

But Theresa May will lament for her own career because all she thinks about is herself, where are the tears for the suffering she’s put people through under her rule? Homelessness is at its highest ever, families with young children are in poverty like never before, relying on food banks to survive.

Even some nurses and other professionals have said that they’re relying on food banks, and it’s a disgrace.

AN79205726Press-conference-.jpg

Knife crime is the highest its ever been and then she cuts 41,000 police officers from our streets and gives tax breaks to millionaires while families are struggling to give their children their next meal.

This Prime Minister has created nothing but suffering to people, and she has blood on her hands, and her incompetents are off the charts, and people won’t miss this wicked woman from an immoral Tory party, and can Theresa May actually breathe with her head so far up her bottom?

Theresa May should call a general election and let the people determine who should be the leader of our country because honestly, do we want one more unelected Tory clown in power? And if we get a May to Johnson leadership, it would be like jumping from the frying pan into the fire.

This is Boris Johnson who will be the adult in a position of authority and opportunity, and he frequently lies, not fibs, blatant lies, I could use bigger words, but that wouldn’t be fit for small children, but given that he’s currently being prosecuted for lying in public office, is he actually allowed to stand while the case is going on?

Donald Trump’s 9/11 Bomb Theory

skynews-donald-trump-washington_4673457.jpg

Donald Trump believes that the Twin Towers were demolished with explosives as well as aircraft on 9/11, and in a telephone conversation with a local New York news station only hours after the World Trade Centre Building collapsed in 2001, a real estate personage stated that he didn’t see how a plane could tear through steel on the sides of the buildings.

The interview was 15 years before he ran for President as he appeared on rolling news coverage for WWOR/UPN 9, and gave his expert judgment as a property developer, and he implied that the towers were demolished by “bombs that exploded almost simultaneously” when the planes crashed into the towers.

wtc-intro.jpg

He said that it wasn’t an architectural deficit because the World Trade Centre was always known as a pretty sturdy structure, and he said that when he first looked at it he couldn’t understand it because there was a hole in the steel, and the width of the windows in the World Trade Centre, if you were up there, they were pretty narrow, and in between was this thick steel, and he thought, how can a plane, any plane, even a 767 or 747 or whatever it might have been, how could it possibly go through that steel?

And then he thought about it and guessed that perhaps it had not only been a plane but that they had bombs that detonated almost simultaneously because he couldn’t picture anything being able to go through that wall.

Most buildings are built with the steel on the interior around the lift shaft, this one was built from the outside, which is the strongest structure you can have, but on the day it was almost like a can of soup, and he just believed that it was a plane with more than just fuel.

Clearly, they were really big planes, and they were flying quite quickly, but it just seemed to do that sort of damage was even more than just a big plane because you’re talking about taking out steel, but Donald Trump’s allegations are comparable to a conspiracy theory, which implies that it wasn’t planes at all that destroyed the World Trade Centre, but that the buildings were instead intentionally destroyed by explosives, although his speculations have since been ridiculed by the official investigation into the 9/11 attacks, even though he’s not alone on when it comes to conspiracy theories!

kisspng-national-institute-of-standards-and-technology-nis-5b4ed42e3e2826.3147280315318927822546.jpg

The National Institute of Standards and Technology announced its closing report on the Twin Towers in 2005 and concluded that it was the planes that brought down the towers, and in a FAQ issued in 2006, the investigators said that the extensive damage was caused by the large size of the aircraft, their high velocity and force, which severed the relatively light steel of the outer columns.

Fireproofing insulation was further weakened by the force, and the extensive amounts of blazing jet fuel weakened the supporting steel, which caused the structure on the impact floors to fail, causing the collapse of the building when it couldn’t sustain its own weight.

Donald Trump also bizarrely used the tragedy to gloat about the size of his own Trump Building in downtown Manhattan by stating that 40 Wall Street really was the second highest building in downtown Manhattan, and it was actually, before the World Trade Centre, the tallest, and then, when they built the World Trade Centre, it became known as the second tallest, and now it’s the tallest.

But the remark left a presenter anaesthetized, and that any opinion that Donald Trump had, in the middle of everything that was happening, was callous, and it was, and Donald Trump’s bombshell opinion isn’t the only conspiracy he’s brought himself into regarding 9/11, and during his presidential campaign he declared that he saw thousands of Muslims in New Jersey revelling soon after the attacks but gave no documentation or corroborating eyewitnesses.

It does, however, appear at times that Donald Trump isn’t playing with a full deck, but there are so many discrepancies in the official report that to accept that the towers were demolished by aircraft alone seems more far fetched than any conspiracy theory.

Did two planes bring down the twin towers? Well, we might never know, and there will always be conspiracy theorist out there, but it does look like the Americans were responsible for that day that made it look like a terror attack.

On 11 September 2001, four passenger planes were commandeered by extremist Islamist terrorists, and almost 3,000 people were killed as the aircraft was piloted into the World Trade Centre, the Pentagon and a Pennsylvania field.

But just hours following the collapse of New York’s Twin Towers, a conspiracy theory surfaced online which continues more than 16 years later.

“Is it just me?” an internet user named David Rostcheck wrote, “or did anyone else recognise that it wasn’t the aeroplane impacts that blew up the World Trade Centre?

“I hope other people are actually catching this, but I haven’t seen anyone say it yet, so I guess I will. There’s no doubt that the planes hit the building and did a lot of damage. But look at the footage – those buildings were demolished,” he continued. “To demolish a building, you don’t need all that much explosive but it needs to be placed in the correct places… Someone had to have a lot of access to all of both towers and a lot of time to do this. This is pretty grim. The really dire part is – what were the planes for?”

Succeeding investigations made it clear that the tower structures were weakened by the inferno from the aircraft and felled by the weight of collapsing floors, however, even now some people refuse to accept this version of events.

zxtsfdgn7xjeqxyushoo.jpeg

On the day of the attacks, Matt Campbell was on vacation in Lanzarote with his wife and two young daughters. He watched the broadcast on television in a state of shock, as his brother Geoff, it transpired over the next few torturous hours, was in the World Trade Centre.

His mother had recently flown out the day before to join them for a week, and he remembers being on the beach and he believes his wife had gone up to one of the restaurants to get some food when she then came down saying that she thought something had happened in New York.

Following several calls here and there they managed to discover that Geoff was in the North Tower, and no one had heard from him.

Geoff had moved to Manhattan a few years earlier. He’d recently got engaged and worked for the Reuters news agency in Midtown. He was on the 106th floor of the North Tower for a conference, but Matt and his wife immediately assumed the worst.

But over the following few days, they tried to keep their hopes up, but they were stranded and no flights were leaving, and all they had was a kind of blurry image on the hotel’s cable TV with the news clips being repeated, showing the plane going into tower two.

The family got a flight back to the UK after a few days and then got onto a flight to New York, but they were clinging onto hope that maybe he’d been wounded and was unconscious, so they asked around several hospitals and it became apparent that there were surprisingly few people who were actually hurt.

Geoff was dead. He was 31, and an investigation into his death was not decided until 2013, though bits of his shoulder blade were identified among the rubble from the World Trade Centre in 2002, by that time, Matt was starting to question the official account of what happened.

He doesn’t subscribe to any one particular conspiracy theory, and online, there are several to choose from, but he’s convinced that there was a cover-up which was blocking him from getting answers about his brother’s death.

It started about the end of October 2001, and the more he started to look at stuff over the years, the more stuff didn’t add up.

 

300px-Seal_of_the_FBI.svg.png

He submitted a freedom of information requests to the FBI and other bodies which investigated 9/11, but it was frustrating because sometimes they would say that they were protected from disclosure because they couldn’t reasonably be expected to meddle with enforcement proceedings.

Seventeen years on and he can’t even get basic evidence from the authorities, and he wasn’t alone in asking questions, and it was discovered that more than half of Americans thought the government was hiding information about the 9/11 attacks, and parts of the official US government report was redacted for years, and some information is still missing.

However, that doesn’t suggest there’s any evidence for the more bizarre online conspiracy theories about the attacks, but some claim the US government was complicit, and that officials intentionally let the attacks happen or were even implicated in the planning.

And experts say part of the reason for the continuation of such conspiracy theories is the discrepancy that occurs when people hear that a comparatively tiny group of men using low-tech weapons caused such cataclysmic carnage.

But that’s quite common when something major occurs because people want an explanation, and usually, the official explanation seems pretty mundane to people and not especially gratifying, and conspiracy theories frequently arise as a consequence of this demand for an answer that’s equal to the event itself, and the reinforcing creation of the online world means that the speculations have hung around for a decade and a half.

And the news doesn’t necessarily radiate indiscriminately the way people believe it does on the internet and social media because people tend to distribute it with people who sort of think the same way as they do about these issues in the first place.

And this uncertainty and confusion of 9/11 have further boosted the conspiracies to find an audience, to take one well-known case, third tower destruction in Manhattan on 9/11, and this tower became an important focus for people who challenged the official story of what transpired.

839.PNG

A 47-storey building about 100 metres from the twin towers, WTC7 was never hit by an aeroplane, and two planes plus three towers have equalled lots of questions, questions coalesced by the BBC’s own reporting of the destruction of WTC7, and in the frantic, unsettling aftermath of the terror attacks, the BBC announced that WTC7 had collapsed twenty minutes before the building actually came down, and in 2007, the BBC’s The Editors blog addressed the stories and outlined how an on-air commentary about an impending collapse turned into reporting about the building really falling, shortly before WTC7 did really fall.

And any possible miscalculation was evacuated by a 2008 report by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) which determined that WTC7 fell following fires on multiple levels caused a critical support column to fail, starting a fire-induced progressive collapse that brought the building down, but that didn’t change the minds of the conspiracy theorists, and AE911 Truth board member Roland Angle alleges there are notable flaws in the NIST report.

His organisation has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to finance additional research at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, and they can say what didn’t happen that day, no matter what the government records and they conclude there’s a pressing problem there.

Matt Campbell’s also still looking for answers, and in 2016, he travelled to Guantanamo to attend a pre-trial hearing of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the man named by the 9/11 Commission Report as the principal architect of the 9/11 terror attacks.

He called the trial a bit of a farce but stated: It was the closest he was ever going to get to a trial into the murder of his brother.

There were four other families there, and one of the women there had signed a reinvestigate 9/11 petition back in 2003 or 2004. The other family members, from what he could gather, were pretty much in line with the official story, but he already expected this because some people have gone past wanting to know what transpired because they were still dealing with the never-ending consequences of losing a loved one.

But whatever it was, innocent lives were lost, and we should all remember that!

HAVENS FOR THE HOMELESS: They May Be Homeless, But They’re People Too

184159497.jpg.gallery.jpg

These people are homeless, but you don’t need to be scared of them.

They’re not evil, not all of them are addicted to anything, some of them have never committed a crime. They’re not sociopaths or maniacal raging lunatics, but they’re homeless and attempting to make ends meet, and many that are homeless have not lost their faith in God, in fact, they’re strong survivors, and these people are more motivated than most to make things better for themselves.

Some of these people were once professionals and productive, some are army veterans, some have been diagnosed with bipolar, and some have messed themselves up but all they can do is try again, but we’re all humans, it doesn’t matter if you’re homeless or not, if you’re homosexual or you’re straight, if you’re black or you’re white, we’re all humans, they’re not garbage.

They strive to survive every day, and everyone out there is just one paycheck from being on the streets. Anybody can be homeless any moment of the time, through a natural catastrophe, through a breakup, through abuse, through anything that you can fundamentally think of, any situation that life brings us.

People don’t even have to give them money, just a friendly gesture will do, a “Hello, how are you?” That makes anyone’s day. If you pass them on the street simply show a little reverence and they will show you respect back, they don’t want to be unkind to anyone, but it really helps them to know that they’re still part of a community and that people care.

Money doesn’t define being a human being. They’re homeless but they’re still a human being, and to those who say that the homeless should just get a job, well, many homeless people only have a school education, so most positions that are open to them are only minimum wage jobs.

The minimum wage in the United Kingdom is:

Workers aged 21-24 to increase from £7.38 to £7.70 per hour
Workers aged 18-20 to increase from £5.90 to £6.15
Workers aged 16 and 17 to increase from £4.20 to £4.35
Apprentices aged under 19 or in the first year of their apprenticeship to increase from £3.70 to £3.90

Most apartments require at least the first month’s rent, plus substantial security, and most homeless people tend to be around towns, so the rent is probably going to be extremely costly, so saving up enough money for the first month’s rent, plus deposit is extremely hard.

And don’t forget homeless people don’t have good credit, don’t have chattels, don’t have clothes to wear for an interview, don’t have a vehicle, don’t have a place to shower, don’t have a place to clean their clothes, and don’t have a place to get a good nights sleep, so it’s not as easy as saying, “just get a job”, and some of the kindest human beings I’ve met are homeless.

2016-08-23-1471986575-570563-HumanResources-thumb.jpg

These are human beings who’ve not been given the opportunity to rise up when they fall, and we all need to let the powers that be know that it’s not right. These people on the streets know the struggle and it’s real, and this is a genuinely important matter, and being without a home shouldn’t give others the license to be cruel or without empathy for these people.

These people that arbitrate should wander a mile in their shoes before they criticise or announce retribution upon the homeless.

Anyone can become homeless under difficult situations, but the government should be taking care of their homeless people because they’re just human beings with emotions and feelings just like everyone else, and instead of the government seeking to do something positive, they just force them out onto the streets, and there are very few shelters.

There are bundles of abandoned buildings out there waiting to be fixed, some never get fixed, so why waste all this space, why not make them into havens for the homeless so that they can at least try to get back on their feet again?

The problem is our society values money and status more than it values life, and our society promotes “dog eat dog, every man for himself”, and we’ve become really detached and unsupportive of one another, and empathy is discriminating in this classist culture.

The real disturbing part is that our government are more prepared to support people in other countries, rather than investing in our homeless, and we need more compassion and understanding, because no one wants to be homeless, it’s just that sometimes life leads us down the wrong path, a path that we don’t foresee, so even a smile can go a long way to making a homeless person’s day, and the sense that they belong, and homeless people all around us shows us the lack of peoples love and respect and understanding of sharing towards another human being, and England needs to take responsibility of its British first.

But a lot of people look down on the homeless as filthy, idle, insane and threatening et cetera, but it’s not about whether they’re criminal or not, it’s about how these people have to struggle, yet others see them as inferior human beings. You wouldn’t even treat your pet like this, so why the need to treat human beings like this?

 

Britain’s Invisible Kids

Girl-School-Education-Elementary.jpg

Education does not equal school and some parents don’t want the state dictating what their child should and shouldn’t learn, and some parents take their children out of school because they believe that they can do a better job.

Some children believe that school’s are a little mean because it was like they really wanted you to do more learning than fun, and a record amount of children are being homeschooled in the United Kingdom, and the amount has more than doubled in the last five years.

The entire aim of home education is that you can customise learning and strategies to your child, and most do that fairly well, but in England, there’s no obligation to register home educated children, which means that thousands are invisible to authorities.

In fact, Dispatches reported that 93 per cent of councils in the country state that they’re not really sure how many homeschooled children live in their region because councils have no statutory obligation to monitor what they’re learning and have no powers to impose checks at home.

mother-daughter-using-time4learning.jpg

Numerous parents don’t want their children going to school just because it’s a school, and it’s that whole school system that they’re opposed to, but not everyone turns to homeschooling out of choice, and some parents have huge reservations on their capacity to teach in a way that a school could.

And some parents homeschool their children for various reasons, one cause might be because the child has ADHD, and the school can’t cope, so the parent finally removes their child from school following a relationship breakdown with the school.

But some children find this challenging and want more help, and with some parents, reading and writing aren’t their strong points, especially if they’ve been diagnosed with dyslexia and it’s also difficult for them to read some of the big words, and then the child sees the parent struggle with it so it would be helpful if they got help.

Most councils do give home visits but the help massively varies, and Dispatches discovered that 87 per cent of councils in England say they don’t have enough to support all home educated families, and some families may get one visit from their home education team, but the most they will do is give the families a list of websites that they can use, and then they sort of reconfirm that this is no help out there, and that’s a pretty scary thought for some families, so they either have to reapply and put their children in school, or they have to homeschool them on their own, there’s no other option.

This government needs to finance the school system better and give support to children, especially children with special educational needs, rather than to stick them in isolation. This government further needs to bring back a broad and diverse curriculum with music and drama, so that they can develop creativity, functional skills, rather than box-ticking because it’s disgusting the limited curriculum these children get.

 

Maths-Science-English-Tutor-for-Grade-3-to-Grade-8_1.jpg

It’s pretty much English, Maths and Science every day, a little history, no Geography, Spanish, RE or PE, while everything else is done as a six week taster, and then they make the music teacher redundant, and there are no words for how we should feel about this government screwing these kids over.

Our school system is massively antiquated and teaches children nothing about real life, and the impact that a testing regime has had on restricting what was once a great curriculum to teach from, and the fun engaging lessons we used to have, have now slowly been squeezed out of the school system.

Topic lessons are literacy lessons dressed up to cover grammar and punctuation elements and sessions on languages and the arts are no longer prioritised because they don’t need statutory results.

We used to have the best education system in the world, but sadly now due to political pressure and funding cuts, as well as unqualified staff in our classrooms, our world-class education is now, in many schools a mess, and homeschooling can definitely be a great alternative for some children, but their educators need to be OFSTED inspected.

Schools go through the grinder to demonstrate they’re giving a decent education and a safe learning environment, so there’s absolutely no reason why home educators shouldn’t have to do the same.

Sadly, academisation and cutbacks have made schools exam factories rather than places of education, and too many have forgotten their core purpose which is to teach children, but lots of schools are manipulating data by off rolling pupils they believe won’t get the exam results they want, and many schools now are not fit for purpose, there are far too many children to a classroom, too many tests, and not enough support for children who struggle, the list goes on.

Teachers are overworked and are required to do everything in line with what our bungling government tell them to do. Children need to be allowed to be children, and not every child will exceed in everything, and some parents struggle to obtain a safe educational environment for their child and are now homeschooling, but those are the children that are lost in the system, but in school sometime it’s abusive, and teachers are not always experts in providing a safe place for children with complex needs.

Education does not equal school and school does not equal education, but education should at least be enjoyable, otherwise, children are being taught to not like education, which is absolutely the opposite of the goal, but then school isn’t supposed to be enjoyable, it’s pretty boring, but if you spend time with children that are homeschooled, it’s quite a different picture, they learn joyfully and with a lot of enthusiasm.

2764587-article-types-of-play-5aa68d5a875db90037fc1198.png

Children learn a lot through play, after all, they’re not robots, even though our government would like them to be, but we talk about homeschooled children being invisible, but there are numerous mainstream children being schooled and not educated and most of them are invisible.

We send our children to school at 5 years old, they’re educated from Infants to Juniors, then they go up to Senior school where they’re informed, whereby they’re just given the books that they have to read and they are tested, but there’s no real education, no wonder it’s boring for them.

But we don’t need the help of the state for our children to be educated and learn, but then the government want children to go to school, it’s an institution. At home, we educate our children to have their own views, but the government doesn’t want your child to have an opinion, heaven forbid! And in school our children are being trained to be little workers, there’s nothing there about being able to cope in the real world, they simply want good little workers and are being trained that happiness is in the bank balance.

 

Disabled Universal Credit Migration Arrangements Ruled “Unlawful”

istock_000017753342small.jpg

The High Court has once again administered a damaging typhoon to the government’s Universal Credit plans.

A judge has ordered the government’s Universal Credit migration arrangements for those who previously received the Severe Disability Premium (SDP) and, moved onto Universal Credit before 16 January 2019 as; “unlawful.”

Now the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) will have to rethink its strategies to recompense disabled benefit claimants who moved to Universal Credit prior to January 16th if they were in receipt of the Severe Disability Premium (SDP).

Under the prevailing precepts, claimants who moved onto Universal Credit before January 16th 2019 would get £80 per month in compensation. This is known as the SDP Gateway.

However claimants who would be part of “managed migration”, would get a top-up of £180 per month. £180 is the amount actually lost when claimants on Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) with the SDP, move onto Universal Credit.

The SDP Gateway came into force on 16 January 2019 and stops any additional “severely disabled benefit claimants” from being forced to move onto Universal Credit until they are subject to a managed migration process, and the High Court ruled that this provision was “unlawful”.

Although it had not yet come into force, had it done so, over 10,000 severely disabled claimants would have been £100 a month worse off, and a two-tier system would have been created whereby a date determined how much you got.

The case was brought by two men with severe disabilities, known as TP & AR, represented by Leigh Day Solicitors and, by a woman known as SXC who is also severely disabled. SXC was represented by Central England Law Centre, and TP & TR acquired another landmark case at the High Court. It was ruled that the government had “unlawfully discriminated” against them when they moved Local Authority and were expected to claim Universal Credit.

It is this decision that made the DWP draw up the so-called “SDP Gateway”. Now their answer to last years case has been forced out too. This is an enormous humiliation for the DWP and Work and Pensions Secretary Amber Rudd MP.

Amber Rudd pledged in January that she was going to listen to claimants concerns. Now she has wasted money struggling to prevent this decision confirming that her claims of empathy are no more than hollow words.

A statement by TP &TR was issued through their solicitors Leigh & Day saying;

“After the High Court judgement last year, we thought we had finally forced the government to ensure that people with severe disabilities who had to move onto Universal Credit from the old system would not be without adequate protection or worse off. However, we then learned that the Government was proposing to short-change us and thousands of other severely disabled persons by around £100 a month. It is extremely frustrating that we have had to fight these cases through the courts when it is clear to all that the government’s unfair and dysfunctional universal credit system is indefensible.”

Yet again the government’s policies for disabled benefit claimants have been found unlawful.

JcOy-bsL_400x400.jpg

Margaret Greenwood MP, Labour’s Shadow Work and Pensions Secretary, responding to the news that the Government was defeated again on Universal Credit migration, said:

“This judgment highlights just how badly the Government failed severely disabled people living without a carer when it forced them onto Universal Credit.

“It is shameful that the Government has wasted public money trying to justify a lower level of payments to this group of disabled people, who need support to live independently.

“The level set was far short of the loss they have suffered. Disabled people should not have to fight through the courts to receive the support they should be entitled to.

“The judgment now leaves the Government’s plans for the managed migration of Universal Credit in chaos. The Government must stop the rollout of Universal Credit.

“I contacted the DWP for comment but received no response by the time of publishing.”

Most of the people who work for the DWP are scammers, along with the government, who are scammers as well, although there are also scammers that don’t really need disability benefit, but then there are people that do require help and have loads of testimony to determine their illnesses but that are treated like scammers.

MPs get away with fraud all the time by scamming the taxpayers and so on, and they’re a disgrace because they’re scamming disadvantaged and disabled people to what they’re entitled to.

These are our MPs, so ask yourself one question, what is it that they do for the impoverished and working class people, well, they rip us off, they steal from the needy to feed themselves and their rich friends…

They said that the old benefits system was complicated and out of date, but then Universal Credit is even more complex. The old benefits system was not broken, so why try to fix it? But then our government appear to have a problem with the disadvantaged and the disabled of this country, they seem to be terrified of them, but then this government is either blind and oblivious of the challenges or the hardships that disabled and impoverished people are in, are they though? Of course not, they know, they simply don’t care.

But why should the Tories care? They’re absolutely loaded and some of them are multi-millionaires, so why shouldn’t they deny the suffering and destitute, because in relation to what our MPs are getting, the poor and needy are getting precious little in comparison, and for the government to give them more, it would make a huge difference to their lives, and it wouldn’t make a dent in the governments pockets, especially all those MPs who are living off the fat of the land, and it’s destitute.

And now the Tories plan to appeal against this judges ruling, how dare they attempt to turn the tables against a decision that’s been legally endorsed by a judge in support of the claimant’s, and it’s sickening how they’re trying to reverse the judgment, considering they’re bunch of scroungers themselves, attempting to default the people in every way possible when it comes to making benefits available for the poor, and it’s been an onslaught since the day they took office, and it was their intention to hammer the welfare system.

Once a decision has been reached, there should be no lurking around in the cesspit, looking to find a judge who’s willing to override a law-abiding determination, and what a shameful bunch of people they are, but then this is a typical Tory ideology because as far as they’re concerned disabled and needy people are nothing more than a burden, and if you go on any right-wing pro-Tory forum, you’ll see the typical anti-claimant comments for yourself.

And it’s utterly sickening how they can be permitted to treat needy and sick people like this, and they should be facing criminal charges, starting with Iain Duncan Smith, and they know full well that they’re causing people to kill themselves but they simply don’t care.

But even if conclusive evidence was possible, we all know that the Tories distort the facts to accommodate their agenda.

We need a new government that cares about every human being. Theresa May asserts that she’s a Christian, but how could she be Christian if she’s assisting unlawful genocide? But then she’s never going to lose her job or have to rely on Universal Credit, and yet she tries to justify this evil, ruthless policy.

This is characteristic of the treasonable Tories, and everything they do is criminal, but they believe they can continue to deprive our elderly, infirm and disabled because, in Tory eyes, all these people are surplus to demand.

But this is just the tip of the iceberg because there are hundreds of people committing suicide with this farce that they’ve been given to live on.

Universal Credit Basic Allowance

Your basic allowance will depend on whether you are single or claiming as a couple, and your age. There is one basic allowance for your household:

Single claimant aged under 25: £251.77 per month

Single claimant aged 25 or over: £317.82 per month

Joint claimants both aged under 25: £395.20 per month

Joint claimants either aged 25 or over: £498.89 per month

Out of this money, people are having to pay for gas, electric, water, sewage, council tax, and food. Gas, electric, water and sewage is not a fundamental need, it’s a necessity, and without it, we’re simply going back to Victorian times, and this entire conservative government believes it can operate in an illicit way and get away with it.

And while people keep voting for them, they will keep doing stuff like this. People know that the Tories have killed all public services, the NHS, Education, the police force, the fire service, the Armed Forced, the border forces, social services, and social care for the disabled and elderly.

They’ve starved local authorities of money and resources and have made the poor and vulnerable even poorer and more defenceless, whilst making the wealthy wealthier, but they still insist on voting for them, but I’m not really sure what their reasoning is, and what we have to do specifically to make people understand how utterly depraved they are, and that they care nothing about this country, it’s all about money and staying in control, and making money for themselves and their associates.

But get used to it because after we come out of the EU our human rights will be toast because the Tories will have free reign to cause whatever destruction, misfortune and suffering to the less fortunate, and it’s all in the Tories extermination program.

Mums Leaving Newborn Babies In Hospital Because Of Universal Credit

Mums are being forced to leave their newborn babies behind in hospital because they can’t afford to keep them thanks to Universal Credit and other welfare cuts, and other mums are turning to charities to pay for food, clothes, beds and blankets for their newborn babies.

And these babies, some of them haven’t even got a coat, pram or anything to take the baby home in, and the baby is left in the hospital when the mother goes home until a social worker or the NHS find provisions.

Baby-clothes-on-rail-Little-Village-HQ.jpg

But a baby bank has been opened up, and two large shipping containers are now crammed with everything parents might need.

0_Abigal-and-baby-Janine.jpg

Abigail Mobey, 34, who has a week-old daughter, was one of the first to attend the facility, collecting clothes, nappies and a pram, but she didn’t actually want to ask for help, she simply never had any other option, but she feels like she’s won the lottery, and that it’s a miracle, and she’s also found help at the centre for her older children.

These parents that go to the centre really have no other choice because they’re simply not getting enough money from Universal Credit, and these parents don’t want their children to get browbeaten for having the wrong uniform at school.

Now Abigail’s son will have decent school shoes, and her daughter was the only one at school who didn’t have a summer uniform and now she does.

It’s just things that they’ve given to her, and just to be welcomed with a smile and a hug means more than anything to this woman, and new figures reveal 35,000 families have been supported this year alone by baby banks.

Clothes-Little-Village-HQ.jpg

One organisation, Little Village, has given out more than £1million worth of kit to 2,000 despairing families since they started in 2016, including 30,000 nappies, 753 cots and 604 buggies, and Dave and Carole Lambourne set up Little Fishes baby bank in their garage, and it’s shocking in this day and age that parents need to use baby banks, but it’s the truth, and there are parents out there who are working but still struggle to put a meal on the table.

This is shameful considering we are the 5th wealthiest country in the world and people are having to go to baby banks, and this Tory government should hang their heads in shame, but didn’t the government bring in Universal Credit so more and more people would commit suicide? That’s one way of getting the dole line down with those who are ill and can’t work, many are committing suicide, and those who are prepared to work, they’re out there hopelessly striving to get work, but can’t, unless, of course, you are willing to do zero hour contracts, but then don’t earn enough money to pay rent and then need to go to food banks.

But then we have a corrupt and shameful government that control this country, they’ll feed the world and give billions away but not to their own country, and it’s horrendous that these food banks and baby banks even have to exist.

Some people out there might say that these people shouldn’t be having babies if they can’t support them, that they should use contraception, and that not getting pregnant is not difficult, but contraception is not 100 per cent, sometimes the contraceptive pill doesn’t work or whatever everybody else uses.

But this is your life, why shouldn’t you have a baby? What are people supposed to put their lives on hold permanently, people are not robots, the clock is ticking, but people merely pray that they will get work so that they can live their future, but sadly there are not enough jobs for everyone, and every day more and more robots take them over, and in the end the vast preponderance of humans will be out of a job.

What will they do then, will they have to put their dreams and goals on hold for the rest of their lives? And this will happen unless society moves forth with a different way of thinking, it’s already unfolding!

Banksy Artwork Depicting MPs As Chimps

banksy-bristol.jpg

I do love a laugh when it comes to members of parliament and what they get up to but when Banksy’s artwork was put on show; it just made me smile all day. There was Banksy’s artwork representing politicians in the House of Commons as chimpanzees, and then I thought, hold on a moment, somethings wrong here, not one of them is sleeping on the job.

The graffiti artist’s work, named Devolved Parliament, was been put on show at Bristol Museum & Art Gallery in time for the original deadline of 29 March.

Devolved Parliament was purchased by an unnamed collector, who had loaned it to the museum to mark a decade since its unveiling.

It’s exceptional art, and that great art is a representation of society. It puts a mirror to society and presents the mood and landscape, and that’s what Banksy does, he points that mirror back at society, and to be fair, it would be kind of refreshing to have apes in parliament striving to improve society, instead of the self-serving individuals we have at the moment, and no matter what we feel about Brexit, this sums parliament up eloquently.

Sadly, there’s not enough poo being thrown about in the painting though, but then again, apes are far more intelligent than politicians who reside in parliament.

Maybe we could do a swap with London zoo and put Clown, Rees- Mogg and Gove in the endangered species enclosure, and then we can have the apes in parliament instead, at least then they’ll make well-informed choices for their whole group and not merely parts of it.

Benefit Money Wrongly Denied To Stephen Smith

stream_img.jpg

The money six-stone Stephen Smith was unfairly denied in benefits will now be used to pay for his funeral, because the 64-year-old died only a few months after winning a lengthy battle with the Department of Work and Pensions after staff considered he was fit for work, despite being severely ill, they still denied him his benefits.

After being wrongly turned down and told he needed to look for work, he was forced to sign on every week, even though he could hardly walk, and while in hospital being treated for pneumonia, the gaunt, six stone Stephen Smith discharged himself from hospital to attend a tribunal to reverse the DWP’s judgment of him.

But after Stephen Smith’s case made the headlines, the DWP apologised and agreed that they would issue him with a back payment of more than £4,000, these were the benefits he should have got, and in February ITV Granada Reports raised his situation with Secretary of State for Work and Pensions Amber Rudd, who requested an inquiry into what went wrong in Mr Smith’s case, calling it ‘very upsetting’.

The consequences of that investigation haven’t been made known, and it’s not explicit if any modifications have been made as a consequence of his situation, but in a cruel twist of fate, that money he was wrongly denied will now be used to pay for his funeral, which was held at Anfield Crematorium on Friday 3 May.

Stephen Smith was supported in his fight for benefits by volunteers at the CASA Community Centre in Liverpool, and it’s evident the distress he went through in attempting to get the benefits he required will not have helped his deteriorating health, and it’s with no uncertainty that his treatment from the DWP was a contributory factor to his health getting worse, and if they’d heeded warnings from his doctor, who said that if he was found to be fit for work, it would lead to a more grave decline in his health.

That money that the DWP finally paid back to him, he will never get an opportunity to spend it, and in a wicked statement, made by the Department of Work and Pensions, they said that their thoughts were with Stephen Smith’s family and friends and that they were committed to ensuring that people with health conditions get the assistance they’re entitled to, try telling that to Stephen Smith, oops, they can’t, he’s dead!

Remember this story, remember this man when you next vote for the Tories. Don’t be sheep, demand change because it now proves that both the main parties don’t give a crap, only when they want your vote do they give a crapola.

People need to be voting with their brains and their hearts. Don’t just vote for a party because you’ve always voted for them, because let’s face it, when has any MP had to suffer like this man had to?

The DWP most certainly hastened the rate of Stephen Smith’s death and they should be held liable for this because they clearly didn’t take any notice of what Stephen Smith’s own doctor had said. He was Mr Smith’s doctor and knew all the effects of his health, and what the added strain from the DWP would have on him.

But they used their own care professionals, whatever that is, and after an hour or so of seeing Stephen Smith, they concluded that he was fit for work. Why don’t the DWP just call it euthanasia for the sick and needy?

They should be ashamed of themselves, that means all parties for not standing up and demanding that there are variations in the system, since now it’s been established so many times that these DWP medicals are crippling to the well-being of the claimants, and then when they are proven wrong, they get some footman to stand up in parliament to atone for them, which hasn’t done this man any good at all.

A Judge Who Offered To Pay A Teenager’s Court Fine After She Stabbed Her Paedo Abuser Has Been Disciplined

pri_35928882.jpg

Judge Jonathan Durham Hall QC refused to jail a 15-year-old girl after she admitted stabbing her assailant, 56, six years after he walked free from court.

Delivering his comments through the case in 2015, he announced it would be a “disgrace to send a survivor like you to prison”. Instead, he gave her a rehabilitation order and told her not to pay the mandatory victim surcharge, saying, “If anyone tries to force you, I will pay it myself.”

banner.jpg

Nevertheless, following the case he was reviewed by the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office who stated he was guilty of misconduct, and the Lord Chancellor and the Lord Chief Justice deemed that this neglected to show even-handedness, and his remark amounted to misconduct.

The judge was given “formal advice”, the lowest kind of discipline the body can give.

Zabhullah Boota 3.jpg

The teen stabbed 56-year-old Zabhullah Boota, who sexually violated her when she was eight-years-old, by plunging a blade through his chest.

She carried out the attack on her abuser’s doorstep in 2015, six years after he walked away from court for assaulting her as a child. Boota was given a community order at Bradford Crown Court in November 2010 after he was convicted of sexual assault and influencing a minor under 13 to join in sexual activity.

However, Boota, then 51 and reportedly with an educational age of ten was not jailed, and the teenaged victim felt let down by the justice system after he walked free from court.

The girl, who can’t be named for legal purposes took a kitchen knife and went round to Boota’s home in Bradford, West Yorks, in November 2015, and she informed him that she was going to kill him before stabbing him in front of his two young children.

Boota, whose artery supplying blood away from his heart had been cut was saved by paramedics and surgeons. He was treated in intensive care and required a blood transfusion.

After stabbing her abuser, the girl hugged her aunt and said: “Tell my mum I love her,” and handed herself in at Trafalgar House Police station, in Bradford city centre. She said: “I’ve killed someone,” and promptly admitted to what she had done.

The teen was formally charged with attempted murder but the Crown accepted her plea of guilty to causing grievous bodily harm with intent.

The court learned how the girl had been “entirely destroyed” when Boota was not imprisoned for sexually assaulting her and encouraging her to join in sexual activity. He was given a community order after she had to give evidence at his trial because he denied the offences, but after, she was paranoid that he was going to get her.

The girl was later excluded from school for poor behaviour, and she feared she would never get a husband and she lived her life in a bad dream.

Boota was left in permanent pain from the injury, permanently maimed and his children have been affected, but rightly or wrongly, this 15-year-old felt that the justice system had let her down.

She was left profoundly troubled and scarred, and she acted in a few moments of hopelessness and despair, and this was an unusual situation which needed an extraordinary course, and this profoundly confused and broken child who was now tormented by low self-esteem was crying out for help.

Judge Durham Hall convicted the girl to a two year Youth Rehabilitation Order with supervision. He told her: “You stabbed him in the region of his heart. Mercifully, you did not kill him.

“He was saved by excellent medical intervention and has made a pretty full recovery.”

The judge continued: “Why did you stab this man? Because when you were eight in 2009 he committed serious sexual offences against you.

“He was treated by the courts, with hindsight, somewhat leniently but things have changed. Now there is condign punishment in cases of this nature, in accordance with the guidelines.”

In 2010, Boota was sentenced to a community order with two years’ supervision and required to sign the Sex Offenders’ Register, and he was made subject to a Sexual Offences Prevention Order which included a provision preventing him from having any communication with the young victim.

Recorder Nolan contemplated imposing a residence order requiring him to live somewhere other than his home because his victim still lived in the neighbourhood, but despite the judge’s beliefs that Boota was being evicted from his home in Bradford anyhow, six years on, he was still living in the same house.

At the time, recorder Nolan stated that he was satisfied the assault was over a short period of time and he was satisfied it was a comparatively minor sexual assault, and that any assault of a child is bound to be serious and that the court should take the crime seriously as well.

And that had the man been of sufficient intelligence and physically fit he would have been considering a term of incarceration, but undoubtedly the assault was mitigated by the fact that he had severe learning problems and a number of physical limitations.

Speaking following the 2010 court hearing the girl’s mother, who can’t be named to preserve her child’s identity, said: “How could that happen?

“A child gets attacked and the judge gives him a community order. He’s a paedophile, where is the justice in that?”

Sadly, justice is not always written into the law books, but we should still praise the system for the continuing publicity which will inform others of this mans presence in the community, and well done to the judge and the victim, and we should not be punishing the judge in this case, we should be giving him a piece of our heart.

This judge needs to be promoted with immediate effect, after all, he’s about the only judge we have with any common sense. This judge should be commended, and every pervert should go in front of him, then perhaps they will be punished suitably and not walk amongst us again.

Handshakes Could Be Banned At Work

1_Two-business-women-shaking-hands.jpg

Handshakes could be forbidden under new workplace rules to circumvent costly sexual harassment allegations, and every employer may ban all kinds of physical touch to avoid uncertainty about what sort of touching is suitable.

It comes off the back of the #MeToo movement, with bosses rethinking their strategies and heading to a more black and white attitude, and some employers may put a full embargo on physical touch, but is this going a tad too far, especially when shaking someone’s hand? But they might say just no contact at all because there is no grey area’s then.

And according to a recent poll of 2,000 adults on Totaljobs, three out of four were keen for a full physical contact prohibition when at work, and it was pointed out that gestures such as putting your hand on someone’s back or giving a reassuring embrace could all come under the umbrella of being too personal.

It will still plausibly be safe to shake hands at work, except if your employer forbids it, in which event you will have to obey the rules, but it’s not only how you comport yourself in the office which matters either. The workplace does extend outside the office as well, the perfect example is the Christmas night out and staff behaviour when going to functions.

But indeed, isn’t this getting to be a little absurd, next you’ll not be permitted to make hand contact when getting change from a cashier in shops, and a handshake is consensual, when somebody puts out their hand to shake it, you consent by shaking it back, but if they keep their hand by their side or behind their back and it’s grabbed and shook against their will, then this is clearly physical assault, which is already covered in the law, so obviously there’s no call for a handshake ban, which would be complete insanity.

If anything, handshaking is social, polite, appropriate and NORMAL.

Perhaps we should go and work in France where men and women, men and men and women and women kiss each other when meeting, an extension to shaking hands, I can’t see this being banned any day soon, but we shouldn’t say women because apparently that sexist, or men for that matter, but HUMAN has man in it, so don’t use that either.

Is there a point to being politically correct, especially when it dictates our everyday lives? And the cultural niceties of the past that assisted human interaction is being denounced, but for what outcome? Because in the end what it will bring us down to is an emotionless society that will be undoubtedly controlled by our socially correct leaders, and it’s about time these minority, sad individuals, who want to dictate to others how they run their lives, to in no uncertain terms to “sod off”.

So, welcome to the unfortunate death of social norms, and the courtesy of a band of senseless society inept imbeciles.
