Iain Duncan Smith Picking Out Severely Ill Claimants In Benefits Overhaul

Image

The destiny of almost 550,000 benefit claimants currently considered unfit for work due to severe sicknesses such as cancer is in the balance as it surfaced that Iain Duncan Smith is preparing a fundamental alteration to the welfare system.  The work and pensions secretary is pushing to abandon a part of the benefit system that assists the unwell of newly born sicknesses get back into employment. These individuals are cloaked by the terminology work related activity group (WRAG) and are considered as being competent to work in the future.

They are compensated with benefits if they carry out training or practice interviews.

A few people discover that they can lead an almost normal life during chemotherapy.  They may feel ill during therapy but recoup swiftly amidst treatments.  They may discover they can get right back to their normal activities as they start to feel better.  If a person is taking chemotherapy pills at home, they may notice extremely minor alterations to their everyday life.  They may be able to do a day’s work and carry on their normal social life.  A few people accomplish working part-time or just between therapies.  They may discover that working helps them to cope with the cancer and distracts them.  They may favour to cease working while they are having their therapy.  Each person is very different, and it is best to do whatever a person perceives is right for them.

Image

As well as feeling ill bodily, it is not strange for people to have ups and downs emotionally.  It can be hard coping with a diagnosis of cancer and having therapy.  So a person may discover they have good and bad days.  Recognize that there isn’t a right and a wrong way to be.

A person may feel fatigued during chemotherapy.  This is quite normal.  It may be due to the medications itself and one’s body battling the cancer.  Absence of sleep.  Being unable to eat properly.  A fall in the red cell count (anaemia).  Having a lower white cell count than normal, as the immune system is having to work harder.  If you usually seem to have a lot of strength, feeling fatigued all the time can be hard.  It won’t be easygoing.

Being overtired may make a person feel sick, and one will usually find it more difficult to cope, but a person must to listen to their body and rest or sleep if they need to.  Some people will feel the necessity to limit their activities, and may be required to ask their family or friends to assist with tasks if conceivable.  Don’t battle with your tiredness.  Take a moment to lay down, and if you have a job, one might have to decrease their hours during their therapy.

How people feel on chemotherapy varies such a lot that they would have to see how they feel.  Nearly all people will require time off work for the sort of chemo they have through a drip (intravenous chemotherapy).  However, a few people manage to go to the hospital, have their chemotherapy treatment and then go on to work.  A few people are required to spend time in the hospital to have their chemotherapy. They will without doubt require a little time off work.

Nevertheless, it is understood that Duncan Smith wants to disperse the group.  That is currently made up of 546,770 people.  Such a movement would demand a reconstruction of the entire benefits system.  The cabinet minister is said to be worried that only half of claimants on WRAG are coming off benefit within three years, and that hundreds of millions of pounds are being bound up in management of the benefit, including the work capability evaluations and appeals method.

It is feared that the defenseless people in that assembly would be coerced to enter the dole queue and be at the clemency of the sanction policy, under which claimants are deprived of benefits if they are not present at enough interviews or make attempts to attain a job.  It is a concern that if Duncan Smith gets rid of the WRAG group and states that all these people are fit to hold a position, that will veer them into job support allowance claimants, and we will have all these people who they are consuming money on attempting to get them into work, who are realistically at no time going to get into employment and whose conditions will have been made worse.

Iain Duncan Smith is already under fire over the government’s new universal credit welfare scheme, through which benefits will be rewarded to those in and out of work in one payment, and last September the £2.4 billion scheme was characterized as being badly administered and riddled with significant IT difficulties, and that the expense could increase by hundreds of millions of pounds.

 

 

 

 

 

Iain Duncan Smith Puts An End To All Benefits For Flood Scroungers

Unknown

Iain Duncan Smith has terminated all benefits for people residing in flooded neighbourhoods because he said they’re all scroungers. Evidently he announced that just because your residence and neighborhood are under water that’s no reason not to be making a contribution to society like millions of hard working tax payers up and down the country. Apparently he also noted that it had come to his attention that those in receipt of benefits and living in the worst hit neighborhoods for flooding are accountable for shockingly colossal proportions of workplace and job centre truancy, and this was unacceptable.

Take for instance a couple who receive working tax credit, but have clearly not put oneself out to attend work for a few days. When the benefits agency personnel called upon their supposed residence, there wasn’t even a Lobelia Avenue, much less a number 17. There was actually a somewhat pleasant lake that was for some logic girdled by layabouts doing nothing but splashing about in their Wellington boots in the middle of the day when they should be out grafting and striving, not malingering.

Unknown

Iain Duncan Smith went on to give a standing ovation to one aging man who was extensively highlighted in the media as he went about his job in Somerset. Duncan Smith stated that was the sort of drive this nation required, and that the man didn’t sit around complaining and asking for handouts, no, he got out, rolled his sleeves up. When it was pointed out to Duncan Smith that man was in fact Prince Charles, he did not have the respectability to look flustered and went on to insist that he could effortlessly live on £53 a week in a house that was underwater if he had to.

The Queen’s Secret Cousins: They Were Exiled To An Asylum In 1941 And Left Abandoned Now An Interesting Documentary Divulges All

The date is 29th July, 1981, and it’s Prince Charles and Lady Diana’s marriage ceremony, and the Queen has arrived at Saint Paul’s Cathedral and is oscillating her hand to the masses as two women in their middle ages, in their misshapen, loose-fitting dresses, walk with an ungainly gait up to the T.V and wave and present arms back at the Queen, making animated sounds, but incapable to articulate conversation.

Unknown

It was a moving moment, recalls one of the nurses who cared for them, as she recollects pondering with a collegue how, if the situation had been different, these two women would certainly have been guests at the marriage ceremony.

The two females were Nerissa and Katherine Bowes-Lyon, nieces of the Queen Mother and first cousins to the Queen, who had been detained since 1941 in the Royal Earlswood Asylum for Mental Defectives, at Redhill in Surrey.

Unknown-1

Their last recounted callers were in the 1960s, and even though it was an open secret in the Royal Earlswood, and in the confined locale, that the asylum housed close-knit family members of the Royal Family, to the extended globe their presence had been annihilated.

Burke’s Peerage had pronounced them both to be long departed, on misinformation furnished by the family. In fact, Nerissa didn’t pass away till 1986, aged 66, and Katherine continues to be living, at 85, she is the identical age as the Queen.

Their shocking story came to light soon after Nerissa’s death, when reporters ascertained she was laid to rest in a grave marked simply by a plastic name tag and a serial number.

The ensuing scandal, which provoked a nameless source to produce a gravestone for Nerissa, made little difference to her sister’s life. Katherine received no callers at the asylum, and as her aunt, the Queen Mother, lived on into cossetted old age, Katherine did not own even her own undergarments, at least till her concluding years there, and had a dress from a shared closet.

Presently there is a story that tells of the Queen’s concealed cousins, born in an epoch when children with learning disabilities were a family’s scandalous secret, even though these children were of no difficulty to look after, but they were playful, like wayward children.

There are photos of Katherine Bowes-Lyon that display an unmistakable likeness to the Queen, and the sister’s story was an everyday familiarity at the asylum.  If the Queen or the Queen Mum were ever on T.V, the two women would bow, extremely majestic, exceedingly low.  Without a doubt there was some sort of recollection, and it is so saddening.  Just imagine of the life they might have had, these two pretty sisters who didn’t have any articulation, but they’d point and make sounds.

Today they’d probably be given speech therapy, and they’d correspond much better, and even though it did not seem it back then, they probably understood more than one would like to think.

Nerissa was born in 1919, and Katherine in 1926.   Their father was John Bowes-Lyon, one of the Queen Mother’s older brothers and the son of the Earl of Strathmore.  John died in 1930 and was survived, until 1966, by the girls’ mother, Fenella.

The sisters were unlucky to have been born in a period when mental disability was looked at as an intimidation to aristocracy and associated to lewdness, feckless breeding and frivolous offences, the traits of the underclasses, comparisons approved by well-received believe in the science of eugenics, shortly to be embraced by the Nazis.

So it was thought that if you had an infant with a learning disability, there was something in your family that was dubious and wrong.  For the Bowes-Lyons, this was a stain that could intimidate their social position and contaminate the conjugal chances of their other children.  Nerissa and Katherine’s pretty and healthy sister Anne became the princess of Denmark by her second marriage, by her former marriage, she was the Viscountess Anson and mother of the aristocracy photographer, the deceased Lord Lichfield.

The imposing Royal Earlswood was the countries leading purpose built asylum for people with learning disabilities.  Nerissa and Katherine were 15 and 22 respectively when they were admitted, and Nerissa’s medical records classified her as an idiot, and that she made indecipherable sounds all the time, but was exceedingly loving, and could speak a few babyish words.

Royal_Earlswood_Park_TQ2848_474

Patients solely wore their own clothing if they had visitants, but for Nerissa and Katherine, there were not many if any callers, no one actually came, it was as if they had been neglected, and from the late 1960s, a surge of shame disclosed conditions in asylums that were critically understaffed and congested.  The Royal Earlswood was closed in 1997, because it was stated that inmates were being mistreated.

The imposing edifice has since been transformed into luxury flats, whilst Katherine is supposed to be living in a care home in Surrey.  Her relation with her family continues unaltered.

I have worked with people with learning difficulties, and it makes my skin crawl to believe these two young women were treated like this.  Of course owing to loss of knowledge and awareness, there was a tremendous stain linked with people who had learning difficulties, particularly if from royal blood.  Nevertheless with the economic resources of the Royal family these women could have been provided with for much better.  Thank God times have transformed!

I feel extremely sorry for both these women, deserted the way they were.  I think that at the time, and the situations were different then, but not to even be acknowledged by their family is an offence.  That could be rectified today, as much as conceivable, by social calls from the young nobles, a suitable care home, and first-class medical attention.

The Queen could readily see all of that now. The only thing that would prevent this that the Queen has  an unresponsive emotion.

Abandoning Housing Benefit For Under 25s Will Merely Feed Youth Homelessness

The coalition’s plans targeted at trimming the social security bill have thus far fallen disproportionately on the youth demographic, and disabled people, regardless of older people being given 47 per cent of UK welfare expenditure by means of state pensions.

Image

 

Abandoning housing benefit for under 25s is one crucial strategy made public at the Conservative Party conference last year.  The Conservatives appear to be intent on cutting the benefits bill for the 1.1 million young people aged 16-24 who are out of work, in spite of the absence of jobs for them to go into. 

Normally numerous young people settle to promote their expertise by going to university and university requests attained a record high in 2013 in spite of a fall in 2012.  But a degree no longer promises a well paid occupation, or any occupation, and many of those leaving university are finding themselves on jobseekers allowance, making efforts to find work with little skill in a permeated labour market.

Some claim housing benefit, although others go back to live with parents, if that is feasible, and at the end of January it was said that last year 49 per cent of 20-24 year olds were already living with their parents, a 7 per cent increase since 2008.

Those living with their parents in this age group were more likely to be out of work and investigation associates becoming unemployed by going back to the parental home.  These statistics disregard tens of thousands of young people living with partners or their own children in their parents’ home.

Nonetheless, what about those young people who can’t go back to their family home, for whatever reason?  What of those whose parents are dead or who were abused?  Whose families plainly don’t have the room, maybe because they have moved into smaller homes as a consequence of the bedroom tax?  Or where relationships have irretrievably broken down?

The Citizens Advice Bureau issued statistics which showed enormous rises in the number of young people searching for assistance about homelessness.  In the space separating 2007/8 and 2012/3, the Citizens Advice Bureau saw a 57 per cent growth in young people seeking help about actual homelessness and a 39 per cent increase in difficulties for young people with threatened homelessness.

Image

 

In their yearly assessment issued following January, Homeless Links high pointed the reality that of those homeless people under 25 who approached the local authority for assistance, 44 per cent said their parents were no longer willing to house them.

As nearly half of young people aged 20-24 are already living with their parents, it would appear that nearly all of those who have the choice to return home, already have done so.  It is implausible that abandoning housing benefit for under 25s will mean that many of these claimants will go back to living with parents, instead many will be shoved out of their homes and onto the streets where their chances of locating work are decreased to next to nothing.

People require their fundamental physiological requirements fulfilled, food, water, shelter and warmth, before they are inspired to centre on higher levels of requirements up to self actualisation.  By taking away the most fundamental footing of help in the shape of housing benefit from the most helpless jobless young people, the Conservatives will be sentencing these young people to a brutal circle of competition, rather than allowing them to find their potential.

 

 

Queen Elizabeth and Cameron Sent Out Warrants For A Pedophile Ring?

Image

 

Queen Elizabeth and United Kingdom Prime Minister David Cameron were sent out arrest warrants.  The two were charged with sexual offences against children as part of a global pedophile ring.

Image

 

Seemingly there is sufficient proof to bring legal proceedings and detain both the Prime Minister and the Queen of England, as activist David Campan was freed from the London Park Royal Mental Health Centre.

The psychiatric establishment had been bogged down with phone calls about David Campan’s forced detainment, when David, and his wife, were held on three instances, without being charged. 

His supposed offence was to bravely display Brussels common law court arrest warrants on the Queen, David Cameron, former Catholic Pope Joseph Ratzinger and 27 other international elites.

Image

 

The Catholic Pope Francis Bergoglio was supposed to be involved in child trafficking in a global pedophile ring.

The injured parties who were prostituted as children at the Vatican have come forward, along with survivors who claim they were abused in global pedophile rings.

Victims have as well professed sexual abuse and extermination of children by a former Pope Ratzinger, Catholic Cardinal Bernard Alfrink of Utrecht, a second Catholic Cardinal, a French judge, Belgium priests, additional parts of the British Royal family and Prince Bernhard of Holland.

A previous Argentine government official recently consented to give evidence about Bergoglio in a pedophile ring during Argentine’s Junta (Dirty War).

In 2013, six judges of a Brussels common law court established the Queen. David Cameron, Ratzinger and 37 further international elites culpable in the disappearance of 50,000 Canadian impoverished children.

Seemingly in 1964, Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip were interpreted as have taken ten resident children from the Canadian Kamloops Residential School.

Image

 

The age ten children haven’t been seen since.  

Apparently, two eyewitnesses died of puzzling reasons aforementioned to the 2013 Brussels court that found guilty the Queen, David Cameron, former Pope Ratzinger and 37 other internationals of Crimes Against Humanity.

The attempts for the unearthing of 31 child mass burial sites of the 50,000 misplaced children have been foiled since the first was found in 2008.

Child mass grave sites were on grounds of 80 Canadian government owned residential schools run by the Catholic and Anglican churches and the United Church of Canada.

The injured party of the Catholic priest abuse scandal has seen very few perpetrators find the inside of a prison cell.

These Catholic sexual abuse occurrences are a succession of accusations, examination, court cases and declarations of guilt of child sexual abuse offences carried out by Catholic priests, nuns and other parts of the Roman Catholic orders against children.

These instances comprise of anal and oral penetration and have ended in criminal prosecutions of the abusers and civil legal proceedings against the church’s dioceses and parishes.

Cases have as well been brought against members of the Catholic pecking order who did not divulge sex abuse claims to the legitimate authorities.  It has become visible they intentionally relocated sexually abusive priests to other parishes where the mistreatment occasionally carried on.

The cases were given notable press and public consideration in Canada, Ireland, the United States, and all over the world.  Nevertheless, in answer to the observation, members of the Church hierarchy have contended that press reporting has been over-indulgent and out of proportion.

Child sexual abuse is an umbrella word detailing crimes in which an adult participates in sensual pursuits with a child or takes advantage of a child for the intention of sexual satisfaction.

Image

 

Children can’t agree to sexual pastimes with adults, and such undertaking by an adult is an unlawful and unethical action which never can be deemed as normal or socially acceptable conduct.

This sort of conduct by an adult should never be ignored because of any adult that infringes a child should be shown as a pedophile. Unquestionably anyone can be called a pedophile, and it would have to be shown to be true, and it’s not all appropriate to presume that someone is culpable of such an offence prior to it’s being proven by a court of law.

We presume anyone from the priesthood to be genuine, and not to be of inquiry, and for us to think that we’re safe in their attendance.  Nevertheless nowadays we need to be careful because now it becomes visible that clergymen are not the salt of the earth, and they’re not the rendition of what we formerly believed.

There is a purpose why we put our trust in these people, and that’s because they do the handiwork of The Lord, which means that we put our trust into these men and women, and think highly of their ideas and opinions.

We don’t question them because of the work that they do but presently we are forced to do just that, to question because of what is happening in front of our very own eyes, this is not the handiwork of God, this is the work of an organisation that considers itself good enough to exploit children that can’t protect themselves. 

 

 

 

The Gagging Law

Image

 

The government’s dashing through a recently developed statute which, if it goes ahead, would have a bitter result on British democracy and our entitlement to speak up on matters that are important in order to us.

From May 2014, harsh new rules would stop non-politicians from speaking up on the essential matters of the day.  A large span of campaign factions and non-profit organisations, everybody from The Royal British Legion, with Oxfam, to the RSPB, are warning about the danger this will create.

In a thriving democracy, everybody should be in a position to communicate their opinions, and everybody should be permitted to get in order to high point what elected officials are saying and doing on the matters that are of importance to them.

Politics is too significant to leave to political parties, and when we speak up about decisions that have an effect on us, and what lies ahead for our country, we can often alter things for the better.

If we permit this gagging order, it means that there will be a limitation on information or remarks that is made by the public, or remarks that has been handed over to an organised third party.  

Gagging orders may be utilised, for instance, to keep legal trade secrets of a business, to keep safe the good character of ongoing police or military operations, or to keep from harm the freedom of disturbance of an injured party or child, or equally what occurs in government.

Conversely, as their drawback, they may be misused as a functional implement for those of monetary means to frighten witnesses and stop the release of information, using the legal system rather than other techniques of intimidation.

In spite of a huge crusade in opposition to it, the Tories did accomplish to get it passed in what has become frequently known as the ‘gagging bill’.  The gagging bill is a way to silence people who would in fact want to have a voice in what happens in our country and, inside our government, but now can’t do that.

The mainstream corporate media have amused themselves with the government by frequently alluding to it as the lobbying bill, in spite of the fact that the larger part of the lobby industry will still be completely untouched by it.  Essentially the bill keeps safety in house corporate lobbying operations from any sort of authorised examination, meaning that a cloak of secrecy will still cloak their control upon our politicians.

The fact that the inappropriately named lobby bill does hardly anything to control the pursuit of corporate lobbyists isn’t even the worst of it.  The truly shocking part is the sizeable second section of the bill which is plainly blueprinted to muffle attackers of the government such as charities, voluntary organisations, protest groups, trade unions and religions, which in spite of the bile from disagreeable anti theist ranter brigade, have done much good work in promoting social justice.

The intent to utilise this latest law in order to repel the freedom of speech of organisations that find fault with government plans was made completely comprehensible by the communication used by Iain Duncan Smith in his harangue against the Trussell Trust food bank group earlier in January.

It was an extremely bad day for anybody wanting to save the environment, save a hospital or be against tuition fees, and it must be transparent. Civil society must never be deprived of its voice.  We must stand up for our convictions and to decline self censorship.

We must toil tirelessly to make sure that this bill does not silence charities and campaigners because this bill will inflict a huge regulatory strain on charities and voluntary organisations, which is now one more confirmation that David Cameron’s Big Society is a con.

One thing is for certain, The Tory gagging laws will not be relevant to the corporate restriction on the mainstream press, and whilst charities and protest groups are muzzled from condemning government strategies, the cheerleaders of neoliberalism in the right wing press, such as the Murdoch emporium, The Telegraph, The Daily Mail, and the Express etc will be permitted to carry on spurting their brazenly prejudiced Tory party advertising.

The fact that the Tories will never gag their attack dogs in the mainstream corporate press presents differing parties with a possible means of evasion.  If they proclaim themselves media organisations, or aim their disapproval of the government by means of the press outlets such as their own tabloids, periodicals or websites, the Tories would be forced to bring in harsh press status in order to shut them up.

In conclusion, this is very discouraging stuff, and despite the best attempts of the charitable sector, Tory led government has brought in laws intended to gag their critics.  The only glimmer of hopefulness is that this legislation is so badly thought up that it is doomed to failure.

 The most advantageous way to test this is through a majority of non compliance.  Nevertheless, it may only take the courage of a small number of organisations to rotate this legislation in opposition to those that thought it up by making sure that the Tories efforts to gag their critics rebound spectacularly by rendering far more public attention to the differing organisation than merely letting them alone would have.

 

 

Iain Duncan Smith Facing Commons Grinding Over His Universal Credit Benefit Improvement Chaos

Image

 

Iain Duncan Smith fronts a grilling from Members of Parliament over his bungled Universal Credit programme.  The marshalled Work and Pensions Secretary will be questioned about the misuse of more than £130 million on his welfare shake-up.

He will be requested to account for the spiralling expense of the project, which had been expected this year but has been hampered for at the minimum two years surrounded by disorder over its recently developed computer system.

His Work and Pension Committee confrontation comes as a Tory insider maintains Chancellor George Osborne and Cabinet Office Minister Francis Maude have lost their trust in Iain Duncan Smith.

Iain Duncan Smith is hopeless.  George Osbourne and Frances Maude have lost any faith in his capability to administer Universal Credit without a hitch.  It’s not on time or on schedule, and the whole thing is a catastrophe.

Image

 

Iain Duncan Smith urged he was bent on trudging on with the vital improvements, which will amalgamate six benefits and tax credit.

Nevertheless it has high pointed how the disorderly introduction has seen £40 million written off in assets that will never be utilised and £91 million spent on assets that will only be functional for five years.

 

Brutal Pepper Spray Assault On Birmingham Bus Commuter Visible In CCTV Launched By Police

The police have released CCTV footage presenting a barbarous and unprovoked pepper spray attack on a man travelling a bus in Birmingham.  In the video,  a man and woman can be watched setting upon their 21 year old male casualty over an interval of seven minutes, leaving him briefly visionless and with a severely broken nose.

 

Officers said they think the assault started following when the casualty politely asked the couple to intervene when two children, with who they were travelling, began hurling sweets at him.  The occurrence took place on the top deck of the No 24 bus along Birmingham’s Board Street prior to 6pm on 11 January.

 

Police have released the CCTV pictures now in the hopefulness that anybody who might know the man and woman involved will come forward. 

 

The man was just minding his own affairs when he politely asked the crowd to stop tossing sweets at him, but that plea induced a savage, and extended assault.  The injured party had something like pepper spray sprayed in his face which made him powerless as the blows rained down on him.

 

At one point,  the assailant stood on a seat to get a better booting slant, whilst the woman he was with as well from time to time teamed up in the attack.  The casualty was fortunate to get off with merely a broken nose as it could have been much more unpleasant.  

 

What makes this more appalling is that they let loose this assault in front of two children they were travelling with and, then we wonder why young children end up being a double take of their peers, clearly because they only follow by example.

Three Charged With Theft Of Food From Skip At The Rear Of Iceland Supermarket

Image

 

A man will stand trial next month after being apprehended taking some tomatoes, mushrooms and cheese from dustbins at the rear of a branch of Iceland’s.  It’s expected the man; freelance web designer was making himself a fried breakfast, and will dispute the actions taken against him, and that he was taking food because he needed to eat and doesn’t think he’s done anything unlawful or fraudulent in taking the food ordained for landfill from a skip.

The case will necessitate magistrates to examine the occurrence of skipping, taking disposed of supermarket garbage to cook and eat, and will high point the matter of how much supermarket food is disposed of, in spite of long operations to lessen the unwanted food.

Image

 

It will as well centre attention on a group of people taking fundamental steps to feed themselves as they strive with the rising cost of living in London.  The man accused, together with his partners in crime, all residents of a squat in north London, were apprehended on 25 October, just prior to midnight, after a member of the public phoned the police to inform them about three men climbing over a wall at the rear of Iceland in Kentish Town.

Obviously bystanders have nothing else better to do at that time of the night, other than to inform what is going on in their locality, when they would in likelihood be better off at home with a satisfying cup of cocoa and a hot water bottle.

Police apprehended the men as they left the district with a holdall and trolley comprising food.  The entire price of the things taken reportedly amounted to £33, and they were of low monetary value, being made up of tomatoes, mushrooms, cheese and Mr Kipling cakes because evidently the thieves thought that they were “exceedingly good cakes”.

Image

 

At first the three men were arrested for burglary, and were charged under a dubious subdivision of the 1824 Vagrancy Act, after being found in a confined region, that is Iceland, for an illegal intention, namely thieving food.

Image

 

This particular statute was passed to handle particular difficulties that England and Wales confronted following the end of the Napoleonic Wars in 1815.  Nine years after the end of antagonism with France, the British Army and British Navy had gone through a huge cutback in numbers.

Image

 

Discharged military staff, who had no jobs or housing, were living rough on the streets or in temporary camps, at the same time, a huge rush of economic migrants from Ireland and Scotland turned up in England, particularly in London, in a hunt for employment… Do you see a pattern materialising here?

Lawmakers became worried parish constables were becoming unproductive in restraint on the growing numbers of homeless and destitute urban poor, and punishment for the broad interpretation of vagrancy, comprising prostitution was up to one month hard labour.

Of course,  the 1824 Act was revised a number of times, most notably by the Vagrancy Act 1838, which instituted a number of new public order offences that were considered at the time to be likely to source moral disapproval.  It included the provision for the prosecution of each Person wilfully exposing view, in any Street, or public Place, any obscene Print, Picture, or other indecent Exhibition.

Image

 

The Vagrancy Act 1898 prohibited soliciting or begging for morally wrong grounds.  At first intentional as an action opposed to prostitution, in reality the law was almost only used to convict men of gay sexual intercourse.  The historical events of laws on panhandling and vagrancy is a long one and, many actions have been passed and have been continually revised, but the importance has always been laid on the prosecution of people whose way of life is begging and vagrancy.

The men challenged the charges and Iceland insisted it didn’t want the men to be prosecuted.  Plainly Iceland did not see it was in the public’s interest to see these men prosecuted, after all, is there anything wrong with taking food from containers that are intended for landfill?  We throw away food daily that could be given to non-profit organisations, or the homeless so that they can eat, but we opt to demolish it, rather than give it to somebody else in a less important situation.

What made me giggle even more is that the articles were given back to Iceland store, where they would have put it back into recycling containers and, then onto the landfill.   Nevertheless these men were held in a police cell for 19 hours prior to being set free because the Crown Prosecution Service perceived that it would be significant to the public interest in taking these three men to court, who was just attempting not to starve.

Image

 

Besides, what is the sin of taking, if it is going to landfill anyhow, and how is it harming anyone else, consequently of no interest to the public, except  the individual who snitched in the first place.

Down To Her Final £1million: Queen’s Money Reserves Plunge After Monarchical Guru’s Overspend

Image

 

The Queen should start renting out Buckingham Palace for a fee to increase the cash flow for pressing repairs to decaying monarchial residences, Members of Parliament proposed.

Image

 

MPs said that the royals have to come up with additional profit-making plans, such as opening the official residence to the public for a more lengthy time and; they inform that it will cost at the minimum £50 million to repair Buckingham Palace and further monumental monarchial structures such as Windsor Castle.

The Commons Public Accounts Committee wants the monarchy to get a better grasp on their financial affairs so taxpayers don’t have to foot the whole restoration bill and, why the hell should the taxpayer foot the bill anyhow?

No doubt there is some reality that the Monarch and the Royal Family are the nation’s most victorious benefit scroungers and, that public money afforded to the Monarchial Family is not being exhausted as well as it could be.

Image

 

Before anything else, what you have to bear in mind is that the Queen was born into her status and so has done nothing to merit the taxpayers money she’s given.  But is it not the instance for many if not most of the people up and down the nation who are well off, who are in moderate comfort thanks to the reality that they were born to wealthy, well associated and schooled parents, but they’re not monied by the taxpayer, so why should the Monarchy be funded by the taxpayer?

The only way to get around this awkward fact would be to strip everybody born into a half way decent family of any advantages they might have in affluence and status.

Previously experimentation of this sort were performed without much outcome and, with substantial violence and if we’re going to do it to the Monarchy we should do it to everybody.

The Monarch should be looking into business opportunities to foot the bills, such as renting out sections of the royal residence and staterooms for reserved use, at least then she wouldn’t have to worry about taking cash from the taxpayer to pay for her financial undoing.

Members of Parliament maintain Monarchial advisors have overspent so much that the Queen’s money put to one side have gone from £35 million in 2001 to just £1 million today.  Seemingly the Royal home has been living from hand to mouth for some time, well newsflash, the ordinary person, her flag-wavers do that on a daily basis, but sadly they don’t have additional rooms to rent out because any other rooms that they do have, the government are making them pay taxes on. 

The Monarch, the Royal Family and, Members of Parliament with second homes should be obliged to pay bedroom tax, just like other benefit claimants.  The Crown Estate is not and, never has been, the direct possession of the Monarchy.

These people live in social housing and should be exposed to Bedroom Tax.  Although instead, the Queen gets a £5 million increase in domestic expenses and, Members of Parliament, well, let’s not even go there.

Buckingham Palace on its own has 775 rooms, this comprises of 19 State rooms, 52 Royal and guest bedrooms, 188 staff bedrooms, 92 offices and 78 bathrooms.  In addition, there is Windsor Castle, Balmoral Castle and the rest of them.

Restoration has been put off for years while the Monarch splashed out on alternative things.  It’s obvious that the Monarchial house requires to do more to protect nationally significant heritage buildings and; it’s evident that the Royal estate is beneath what is considered to be a satisfactory state.

The Royals got £31 million from the taxpayer in 2012-2013 but used up 33.3 million, coercing them to sink into their stocks.  At the moment, the Royals have been summoned to lower their expenses and increased spending because the Royal kitty is so short that the Queen might be powerless to pay out for unexpected events, like where she’s going to get her next outfit from…
