Falklands to become the Malvinas

We have seen a great cut back in our armed forces budget. The troops live in shit houses and they are not looked after by the state if injured, but it's left to charities.
Post stress disorder isn't recognised to a long term support.
Most of us know that if Russia started a war, we have NO chance whatsoever.
We can't even defend the UK, which is why the USA is very concerned.
Our friendship with the USA is based on military strength.

Now I read today that there are secret moves to cut it further.
So logically, there is absolutely no way we can defend the Falklands when it will be invaded.
I say 'when', because it is going to happen, it's just a matter of when.

I predict that by 2021, Argentina will invade and then we will go to the UN (which is useless) and try to legally get the Falklands back.

The likely outcome is that the natives will have to move to the Shetlands or somewhere and the Argentinians will dig for Oil and not find any, only for the Falklands to become an empty island!

2017 & 2018

2016 has not been a good year.
For me numerous family illnesses, which are still being investigated.
My own health has not been too brilliant.

So what can I expect in 2017.
Surprisingly, I am quite upbeat about it for a few reasons.

Horoscopes are looking good for the Capricorn.
I don't think much can go worse in 2017.
My business idea is picking up, but a lot of work still needs to be done.
The development should be finished by the end of 2017, so that it can be marketed.
So far there has been interest from a few charities and that's before the core users.

I see Brexit as being an asset rather than a liability for a number of reasons I won't go into.

Those who have known me a while, also know that I have premonitions every so often. They become quite vivid and I can't get them out of my head. Now is that time.
In 2018, I can feel and convinced that I will become a multi-millionaire.
Yes you may feel I am 'Delboy', but this is so strong a feeling I can't question it.
whether its with my new business or a Lottery win I don't know, but there is a strong aura around me.

My Teenage years2

My first job was with the British Bank of the Middle East which is now HSBC in Abchurch Lane London.
I played for the bank 2nd team in football and it meant that I travelled around a bit at weekends, with grounds in South London like Beckenham or west London.
My colleague from Work Andy was a ladies man. He was from Barbados and was a light caribbean skin. He had long hair. anyway, he was another I spent most of my time with. He had a good fashion sense and a good dancer. Women used to flock around him.
I remember one Saturday and it was too foggy to get home from Beckenham, so he asked If I wanted to stay with him at his Dads house in East Croydon. When we got to his house no one was home and his parents had separated. The house was freezing with no heating and it was a bear house.
Andy introduced me to McDonalds which was in 1971. I wasn't sure about it then and I hate it today.
I think I stayed at the bank for about 2 years. The idea was for me to go into the docks at 18. However, I had aspirations and wanted to do banking.
During my teenage years I had some lovely girls, but I didn't always treat them right.
I am not sure if this was part of growing up, but I would like to see some f the girls today to see how they turned out and their lives.
Throughout my life and since I was 16, there is one girl who has always been around on and off. Val Whitchurch. She is like a sister to me, but again, she doesn't call, although I did get a Xmas card this year from her. Val and her family will always be dear to me. I went out with Val twice, but we argued too much from what I can remember. She went off to Australia to live for 2 years. Her Mother rang and told me that she wanted to come home, but neither her nor her Mother had the money to get her a flight. So I organised a party and donations to get her home and she has stayed in the UK since, apart from holidays. I do miss her!
I went out with girls from work and another girl was Janet. Lovely girl but I didn't treat her nicely either. I mean I dumped her abruptly when she didn't want to. Most girls I went out with, I treated nice and I didn't have a high sex drive, which may have been because I was sterile since I was 10-11 years old due to Mumps, Measles and Jaundice. I like women's company, but at the same time I feel I have missed out. I always wanted to get married to a foreigner. I had this fascination for foreign women, I think because of my love of geography and travelling. At this period it wasn't really acceptable to marry foreigners and especially black women.
I did have a French girlfriend on holiday once who didn't speak English, but I could speak a little French- very exotic. The problem was she was chaperoned by her grandmother! Anyway, she was from Lille and I thought I would go there one day, but I haven't made it yet.
So back to the UK!
My teenage years meant for a career I went to banks and worked in Treasury back office. Eventually I cam across the Trading room and knew form the first time in their I wanted to be a trader. So this was my aim.
I also went to night school and took the Bankers Exams. I did ok. As usual I failed English but passed with flying colours for Economics. This confirmed that I was a good Economist and analyst, which then led me to politics in my own way.
I lived at home with my parents until I was 23 years old. To this day I rue the fact that I didn't do more for them and I feel guilty. I miss my parents very much and after Dad passed away found that I was alone and couldn't talk to anyone else about personal problems, which is the same today.

To be continued....

Best mates

I am not an easy person to know! My wife of 28 years can confirm this. I feel thst not many people understand me, including my family.
Since I have been qualified as a life coach for High Level Autism I think I now know why.
On top of my East End upbringing I believe I have more than most people, the traits of Aspergers.
We all have it one way or another, but mine is a little higher.
This is why I have found it hard to make long term friends. Those that I have, understand me or just turn deaf ears and blind eyes, to which I am grateful.
What hurts me most is a friend I had since I was 5 years old until 21 years old.
Paul and I were inseparable in numerous ways.
We went out in our teenage years to clubs, parties and pubs. We chatted up girls together.
We used to go to night clubs and Paul would always be on the look out for girls and to be honest, many girls found him attractive. At the bar he would say ' look! those girls are looking at us' and I would say ' let's go and have a chat' he would reply ' No lets wait and make sure'.
Either one of 2 things happened- some other guys would beat us, or I would go and dance on my own (Disco days). I would go through a dance routine I had and I found girls would come up to me and ask to dance with me. Mainly because no other pratt was dancing!But hey! I was different and didn't care.
Thinking back I would mainly call Paul and arrange things, so I shouldn't have been surprised when he pissed off.
We both played football, but Paul was considered better than me. He was at Chelsea and West Ham. After he didn't make it he went to USA to the first MLS league, where he played for the Philadelphia Stoners. I will come back to this.
Paul took me along to Chelsea training and eventually I was training during the summer with the youth team, with Paul. Maybe to make up numbers, but I loved it and the trainers were nice east end guys.
Paul decided to go into acting.
I remember that we both went to Kennington for auditions for a famous choreographer. He wanted me to go for dancing and he was going for singing.
Anyway, we showed up and it all seemed chaotic and unorganised. What it gave me was time to look around. I saw guys in ballet gear and all looked gay. After a while I said to Paul, 'there is no way I was getting into a leotard, so fuck this!' Off I went.
I can't remember if he stayed, but I certainly didn't.
Anyway, we had so many laughs and we ended up mixing with the same people as I inevitably mixed with Paul's school friends at the YMCA, where I did alot of football and gym exercising.
So you get the gist of our friendship. Even my parents treated Paul like another son.

Anyway, when he was 21 he decided to go to the USA and play in the new MLS league. He apparently did ok and was a bit of a celeb. He also tried his hand at acting there or shall we say being and extra.
Many times I would lose contact with him, as did his Mother, who asked me to track him down on a few occasions. This was before mobiles. Sometimes it took we 3-4 weeks to get him on the phone, so no idea what he was tied up with.
At this time I was able to connect his Mother with him using the bank telephone system, so it saved her money.
Eventually, Paul returned from the USA. We had a few calls, but he had changed and didn't want to see me much.
Since this time I have had a few Facebook contacts with him, but his replies have been short. With School reunions you don't know if he will show. My son went to his soccer school and I thought that this might resurrect our friendship, but no, as soon as the school stopped or my son didn't go I have had no contact at all. This must have been 6 years ago.
I think that has had a huge impact on me, which is one reason why I am not very social. I don't trust people anymore and to be honest I view people as acquaintances only.

Friends that I have had for many years are:
Karen and David In York. We have known each other for 37 years. I can call any time and they are lovely. What is odd, is that they come to London, but don't meet with my wife and I. We are expected to go to York.

Tony and Leslie, we have know from Saudi days, so about 27 years. We see them about 6 -8 times a year.

Rob and Leslie who live our street. Mainly my wife's friends, but I am there in the background. We have known them for about 13 years. They have helped my wife many times and she is very close to them. I guess as I have been away alot abroad working, not so much. I still appreciate their friendship.

Rob and Sandra, we use to live opposite for about 6-9 months, but as we are in the same town I see Rob a fair amount. Sandra is from my home town Dagenham and Rob is from my wife's area of Harold hill. Rob and I just wind each other up and have a friendship, where I have stopped speaking to him for a few months and then I go back to him and he just accepts it, after telling me the error of my ways!

Thats' it for my close friends.
What I will say is that those I have as close friends are few, but dear to me!

My Teenage years

For some reason, when I went to secondary school, I chose to go somewhere else and away from my friends. It meant going to school by bus. It wasn't a good named school and the first days were full of dodges from getting beaten or tortured by existing boys. It was a school split into Boys and Girls sections.
Anyway I did ok and enjoyed my time there reasonably well.
I was good at sport, so I was left alone because of this. We had the usual groups of morons who thought they were tough and caused trouble.
I had a few fights at school and could handle myself pretty well.
I wasn't brilliant in the academic area, mainly because if I asked questions in class, I was called a disruptive person and was punished with standing in front of the class, standing outside the class, having to hold or wear things on my head etc.
We had one teacher Mr Jarvis who i think liked me and at the same time kept punishing me. It got to a point where he upset the pupils that we got together as he drove out one day and we crowded around his car and then turned it on its side.
Triptons school for boys was known as a lower level school and full of louts!
Things I remember:
1. Cross country runs. when the sports teacher wanted tea or a rest we had to go on a 3 mile run along the pavements, around an industrial area and then back to school. I hated it.
2. Drama was run by a young guy and the bullies tortured him for our class. However, he was the first person who gave up teaching us drama and started to teach us computer language. This was my first encounter and stoked my interest in computer technology.
3. We had a craft teacher who taught us modelling clay. When he disappeared into the storage room we would throw clay balls which put holes in the storage partition. One day he was locked in his storage cupboard and we all walked out.
4. I always played for the school football team, which I enjoyed. I always thought I had a chance to make a professional.
5. Because fashion wasn't my thing, I did get ribbed a few times for my clothes.
6. The bullies pressurised a plump boy to fight me. I suggested he didn't as I would hurt him. His name was Stephen Poynton. We used to get along ok. Anyway he tried the fight, I hit him twice and he didn't get up again for another punch. poor guy.
7. I had a couple of friends who for some reason turned against me. Top this day i don't know why. We were friends for years. Anyway one night after school I was set upon by 4 boys. There was a crowd. Anyway, I gave what I could against 4 and it ended when one boy had me in a headlock and was strangling me. At this point the bullies took over and pulverised the 4 boys. However, I did see one boy that I got stuck into with a face full of blood. The bullies didn't bother me and were nice to me anyway after this as I stuck to my guns.
We did meet up with girls from school and I had a few girlfriends from there. all very innocent then of course.

Football and work was a big thing for me.
I played for several teams like Dagenham Docks, Loughton Town, trained with Chelsea, Dagenham and Rainham Town. I was injured from a Dagenham docks match at 17. The balls weren't as light as they are now and I was a winger for the dockers. After some rain the ball was heavy, but I took a shot from the halfway line and scored, but I had torn my thigh muscle and I never recuperated from this, so was often an injury for me.

At 16 I started work at the British bank of the Middle East as an archiver. I was biding time before I was 18 to move into the docks that my dad wanted me to do.
This was my first real introduction of fashion helped by my colleague Andy. I played for the football team as well which meant I spend a fair amount of Saturdays in the South of London and North of London at Bank sports grounds.
At this age I started drinking and got absolutely ill on Bicardi and coke and since this day i have never really drunk very much.
After a couple of years and I took my banking exams, I couldn't get a promotion or move departments to learn more, so I started to move banks and get promotions that way.


To be continued.....

Upbringing and family

I have happy memories of growing up. An east end family from London. Dad was a docker and Mum was a seemstress. We had structure and discipline drummed into us.
Dad in those days was fairly often on strike as with the dockers and unions in those days. When times were hard, Dad would try and get other work like decorating and Mum would work longer hours to make ends meet, working from home.
Although never poor, as such, I do remember that fashion was never promoted, besides I was onlt interested in wearing a football kit.
I remember my first was from my cousin Tony. It was a Norwich short sleeved shirt, Green shorts and my first football boots were made of leather and had hard toes and leather studs!
Anyway, Mum and Dad kept us wanting for nothing.
Dad was quite strict but fair and Mum was always caring.
In my younger years Dad would come home some nights drunk, when he went out with his friends in the East end. This included people linked with the Krays, but Dad kept away from them as far as I know.
Mum would keep the home and the family ticking over.
On Saturdays, Dad would take us visiting the families in Wapping and Stepney. Our Nans would always send us home with something. Nanny Jones it would be sweets, paper, pens, Bagels and some jewish food from Blooms in Aldgate. Nanny Smith was a widow and would send us home with Bread pudding. Some evenings we would go and see Uncles and Aunts.
On Sundays we would get visitors showing up without warning. For supper we would have salad, Prawns in vinegar and pepper, cold meats. In those days we just dished up what we had.

My Elder sister:
Is 7 years older , so we weren't really close, being a gap plus being male and female!
What can I remember:
Playing Beatles LP's and singing and playing air guitar in the front room
I think my sister's first Love breaking up. I think his name was Vince who I think had Red hair.
Bringing home her current husband when I was 11 and he converted me to a Spurs fan.
I had her hand down red bike.
Her marriage and I was one of the Ushers.

My Younger sister:
Only 2 years younger, obviously, we were a little more closer.
I remember that we were page boy and flower girl at my uncle and aunts wedding.
She was very moody and would spend hours in her room and stomp around.
I guess we played together, but this is a bit patchy.
We shared a bedroom in our younger years until my brother and myself shared a room together.

Younger brother:
My brother is 7 years younger, but we did play together, where I looked after him.
We would play football and generally up to no good.
I remember that he was a sick person for a while getting the Croop alot. This meant he had to use a steam bowl and inhale to help open his airways. Today it's helped with an inhaler.
There were a couple of panics with him.
The Croop meant he went to hospital a couple of times. The panic was caused by us losing a brother beforehand, so Mum spoiled him a little.
The second panic was him tripping over the fire hearth and hitting his lip on the coal bucket and slitting his lip. Of course it was bad, but he got over it.
The third was at Secondary School. My Mum came home one day to find him at home in agony. He had injured himself at football at school and the teacher brought him home and left him.
The result was that he had pulled his ball joint out of the socket and ripped his muscle.
This meant months of therapy and weeks off school. He was helped as he saw the West Ham physio, as it was the schools fault.
I guess when I left home at 23, we kind of lost touch. I have tried to stay in touch, but he went eventually to New York and then San Francisco, which is my fault. I convinced him to go into banking from Fords.

Anyway, my sisters and brother do stay in touch and try to see each other as best we can. This gives testament to our happy upbringing and family values that Mum and Dad gave us.

I miss my Mum and Dad terribly. Dad was always there to listen to me and offer advice, something like when I was going to live with a girl at Heathrow. Dad hovered in the lounge door or in the kitchen. He would say ' Don't be an idiot, I have had more girls than hot dinners, and you are making a mistake' I didn't go!!

Will Trump make it?

My take is the following:
I have never seen so much animosity to a President elect with riots and protests.

I think Trump will either be assassinated or will be impeached and will not stay in office if he gets that far.

The Vice President seems to be unstable and I can't see him taking over.

Which then leave Clinton to take over and the country goes back to some normality, whatever that is.

Not ideal, but USA chose this.

The college vote will need to be changed!

Going into teenager years and girls

My first girlfriend was someone in our street. We used to walk our dogs and meet every morning.
Nice girl, whose Father went to work in Germany for a while and ended up with another woman from Germany. The family moved away after some years.

Living in Dagenham was a case of school during the week and football at the weekends. We would meet up with girlfriends on a Saturday and Sunday, but the girls were also supposed to come and watch me play football.
Some did and some didn't.

Through the teenage years, I wasn't that bothered with girls and I certainly wasn't, as successful as my mates.
Paul was my best mate and we went around together all the time, going to night clubs after our 18th birthday. In the meantime whenever we went out, girls would look at him.
He would tell me, while in a club or bar, that a couple of girls were looking, but for some reason always delayed going to talk to them. He always gave an excuse to wait and make sure!
Eventually, I would get fed up and go to the dance floor and do my dances or go and talk to them. All my dancing was choreographed, not like the stupid bopping of today. This gave me an advantage as girls would come up and say 'we like your dancing can we dance with you.' Then Paul would come and join.
He was a smooth guy, unlike me, as I didn't care whether I got girls or not, I just wanted to enjoy myself. Sounds like Big Bang theory team!
In my early teen years I spent down at the Romford YMCA. It had football training and gym training which I loved to go to. Then Paul and his friends from school started to come and there was a youngsters club at the YMCA. We sat and chatted, played table tennis, which I got quite good at and played Essex county players. Of course I lost, but I gave them a run for their money.
Then we had the disco's. Music like Silver machine, Marc Bolan, James Taylor, Carole King etc etc
As we were all a good group, I had few girlfriends from there.
There was Sue, whose Father was a policeman and they lived in Hornchurch. There was my good friend Val who lived in Elm Park. A few others from Romford and the surrounding area.

At nearly 16 years old, I worked at the local Tescos. It was here that I met my first sexual experience.
Can't remember her name (no surprise) but it was down a dark alleyway on a cold night. Not too successful, but at least I got on the 'step' as they say. Anyway, I can remember an occasion where we went to the golf course. A bunker is apt, but not good for sex!

I think that I was too polite at this age (not that I should have been anything else), so my conquests were few and far between, but I didn't care, 'cos I was focused on football.

In my secondary school, I went out with a few girls.  Again, I wasn't bothered that much, because of football.

In todays age, all things have changed to my day. Many times I was turned down by girls, because I wasn't good looking, but maybe in todays age I would strike it much better. It seems geeky is in!
I tried to make girls laugh, but this didn't help much, so if a pretty girl says she wants a man to make her laugh, don't you believe it! They want someone to show off in one way or another. If the partner is geeky, it means he could start a company and earn a fortune- That's what it's really all about!!

I am sure I am missing some, but I guess the main theme above is, that yes I like girls, but I like football more!! Shame I didn't make a professional player, maybe in todays world I might have!

Next: Family and upbringing

I had a teacher who picked on me when I was 7 and in the infants still. Her name was Miss Jones and she was from Wales. She picked on me just because I wasn't from Wales or had any Welsh relatives.
She was tall and slim and i guess about 25-28. She moved to Rugby to get married.

Our class was fairly close knit. I was with the footballers and out main aim at that age was to get to the Junior section and get into the school football team.

At this point I would like to mention the school caretaker Mr Catchpole. He was a nice man and always seemed in a good mood. His daughter was at the school as well.

So we all move up to the junior section. The Headmaster was My Ling. A tyrant as far as we were concerned and ruled the school with fear, but he did like his choirs and music which our school had.
Unfortunately, he was later convicted and imprisoned for being a paedophile. I have no idea if this was true as he was always nice to me.
The Junior section was happy for me. The teachers were nice.
I wasn't outstanding and lacked concentration at lessons.

Eventually, I moved to the 5th form. I became a good recorder player for the music and choir. I also was a regular player for the school football team and the cricket team.

Sport was run by Mr Ramsammy who is now an executive member of the International Olympic committee. I liked him a great deal. That year we won the Essex Schools cup and won every match I think, or we drew just one game, but never lost.
We played Ripple road school in the final at Barking arena and was given our medal by a young Trevor Brooking.

At the age of about 9 or 10 I started on my football and I played every where I could. Local Fields , Saturday and Sunday teams, going on my bike everywhere.
I played for Blades United in all positions and we played in a few finals.

In these days there was no social media, phones etc, so the class members got on mainly together with little bullying or arguing.

I remember that Dad would try and help me with any homework.
I had a happy upbringing and my parents were good and kind. Dad was a docker and on strike alot, so we didn't have alot of money, but we always had a chance to get away each year in a caravan by the see. Family member were close and we visited alot. In the beginning by train and when Dad got his Anglia in 1965 we went everywhere in the car.
Saturdays, we went to see Nan and Grandad Jones at about lunchtime. Nan would give us bagels, doughnuts, paper and pencils, sweets etc. Also, we would get jewish bread and gherkins in brine. Saturday evenings we may go and visit other Uncles and Aunts from both sides. Sundays we would get visited by the Smith family. Mum would make a Sunday roast for us and then in the evening with guests we would get a Sunday salad and shell fish dinner.
This was in between going out and playing football of course.

I was quite boisterous and chased around alot.
1. I was playing kiss chase at a young age and dived onto broken glass. I still have the scar on my leg.
2. I broke my arm, falling from my bike going to football, because I was wearing football boots and my foot slipped.
3. Me and my mate Andrew Boyle broke a girls toy pram racing around in it. Dad had to get it welded.
4. I was always getting injured from sport
5. I did have some health issues. I used to getting dizzy and went to hospital, but was told i just had a vivid imagination. On the basis that I had a low heart rate it could have been anything. In those days they didn't know.
6. climbing out of the bathroom window and slipping down the rope, only to burn my hands.
7. Stepping on a hot poker in front of the fire
8. We had a gas boiler for clothes that my Mother used. I did something to this. I think I disconnected the gas pipe, leaving the gas on.
9. I used to dream alot and they were a little weird. It now seems that i had a 6th sense. Things that I dreamed about would be in a some kind of city or location. In later years I found myself in these situations and knew where I was and where I had to go or things that were there, eventhough I had never been before. I have been told by clairvoyants since that I do/did have something along these lines.

In our school and in our street we had alot of nice neighbours. Of course we had the 'bad' family. Mr & Mrs Ford. He was a labourer and they had 8 girls! Weekends were entertaining, as Mr Ford would get drunk and have arguments with Mrs Ford. Then it was the boyfriends. I think all but the eldest Pat, the girls became problems, getting pregnant and changing their boyfriends/Husbands regularly.

Mr and Mrs keys that lived next door, were lovely people so what they had to put up with I don't know.

What I can remember the seasons of the year were always lovely for me. As I said earlier, the winters were cold. when snow fell Dad would put coal fire ash on the ground so people didn't slip, but it ruined our fun of sliding. Spring was fresh and the colours always vivid. Summer  was great. That long holiday from school always seemed an age. More important was all the football I could do and racing on my bike. Autumn and especially September I can still smell the hazy smoke from bonfires and of course the mist and fog that was around then.

In those days we didn't have supermarkets etc. So our local shops were small and varied. I can remember the old style ironmongers. The old shop desk and the jars and wooden boxed shelving behind the people working in the shop- A bit like the programme 'Open all Hours' .
The old style Woolworths in our high street, was a major store.

Every week (when I was old enough) I would take our laundry in a pram and walk about a mile to the launderette for my Mum. Mum was a dressmaker and worked from home, so this helped alot.

Next: Starting to go out with girls and my teenage years

At Primary school, we had kids coming and going, but the vast majority stayed all the way through.
We had 2 classes of about 30 kids. I was in the 'A' class and I have no idea why.
Anyway, in the 'B' class there were all kinds of kids. One day this boy Stovey or Stoves arrived and we all thought he was a bit weird.
Anyway, within a short time we found out that he swore suddenly, made some strange movements and in numerous occasions was stripping off in the playground. Of course he had Tourettes, but we didn't know these things. He didn't last long at our school.

I arranged a reunion  after 50 years and most that I found showed. I think about 45 showed and some are still in contact with each other.

After a little time we also had 2 new neighbours with children:
Mr and Mrs Evans next door. Mr Evans had a club foot and worked at Ford. They had 2 children. John their son had severe disabilities and was in a wheel chair. They had a daughter who was fine.

Over the road was Mr and Mrs Murphy and they had a son (Michael) who was a Thalidomide. He had no legs and one arm where his fingers were not normal and his sister Jean was fine.
Anyway, our Mum offered to help them whenever she could, which meant that we took care of them when their parents needed to go out shopping or go out together.

John was confined to a wheel chair, so most of the time he stayed in our lounge and we entertained him and fed him. He was always jolly, but he couldn't talk well.

Michael Murphy was something different. He got around on his backside and was very active. We played football and other games, in fact I am sure he was hyperactive. In later years I saw him at the social welfare office where he worked. Michael was always cheerful as well and liked to come and play with us.

Red bike and First school

My sister had a 3 wheel red bike and this was to become mine at a fairly young age. Of course there were not many people around so we could ride on the pavement. I used to race all around the block, which seemed huge to me. So I loved to race around and go round the corner on 2 wheels.
I guess I had the bike when I was about 4 years old.

I started school when I was 4.3/4. I can remember not liking it at all. On the first day Mum took me and I clung to her in the playground. When the whistle went we all went into the reception classroom. Mum stayed a little while and then said she had to go and come back. I started to cry. She came back a couple or so hours later and I told her not to leave me in future and stay. Th next day the same thing happened. I guess after the 3rd day I got used to it as I started to play with others and listen to stories etc.
Everyday at about 10.30 we would be given a 1/3 pint of milk and we could have a biscuit. it was lovely.
My  first teacher was Mrs Lake I think. I can remember that she was a lovely lady.
The school was Richard Alibon School. It's still there today and has children that speak 17 different first languages.

Next: Stovey and neighbours children

Inquisitive child

Our house was warmed by coal fires. In the mornings we could see our breathe in the winter when we awoke and we had frost on the windows.
The seasons were much more stronger than today.
Winter was cold and we had snow every year, Summers were hit and miss, humid. Autumn brought fog and spring rain.
Our travelling was by local transport as we didn't get a car until 1965, an Anglia car 'C' reg and dark blue.
I was always an inquisitive child who ate coal and worms. I guess a whole load of things, so my parents told me.

I remember some Christmas presents vividly.
The first I can remember was a tin motorbike and rider when I was about 2-3 years old.
I remember a lot of plastic cars and lorries, plastic soldiers and metal ones, painted in those days with lead paint.
Dad and my uncle put together  train track on a hardboard table.
This tended to come out on Sunday mornings when Dad would help and play with me and trains.

In those days, the community was quite tight and they all helped each other. Being in a council house, Husband had a different job, such as; Labourer, Docker, Maintenance person, Fords. I think nearly all were manufacturing industry which is why they were in a council house.
The Wives were in and out of each other homes and some kept to themselves.
Our next door neighbour kept chickens and he used to kill them and at times he gave us one for a Sunday Roast. Mr Wiffin was a keen gardner and wasn't best pleased when I used to throw or kick a ball into his garden. My sisters, brother and myself were always frightened of him as he could be a bit cantankerous. He and his wife were keen church goers and we had a church just 100 yards away, where Mrs Wiffin used to look after the hall and reservations and the church flowers.

We had another neighbour who had a daughter and son. They were all very nice and in later years the son offered me a pound for each trophy I got for football. He reneged on that after the first cup as I got so many.
The daughter when I was 4 used to look after us, when our Mother went shopping.
On 1 or 2 of these occasions she took care of myself and my sister.
She sent my sister off playing with toys or in the garden and took me into the front room, where there was a bed or something. She asked me to do something for her. She asked me to go up her dress/skirt and then do something to her. At one stage my sister came in and she sent her away to play again.
This I have remembered quite vividly since and today would be classified as abuse.

Neighbours changed around us on rare occasions and there was hardly any problems, with most being friends.

My Parents were Catholics and Priests still try to rule by fear.
My elder sister was supposed to go to the Catholic school and as my parents were not a practising family, my sister was refused entry. So my Mum and Dad then enrolled my sister into the local and near , Protestant school. The Priests were horrified that someone had defied them, so on a regular basis, they would come to our house and try to get mum and Dad, plus the family, all going back to church. Dad used to tell them, they had no forgiveness and should never had rejected my sister. He was polite, offered them a drink and gave them a donation. Since that time, myself and my brother and sister went to the local school.

Next; Red bike and school start.

My first memories

I was standing in the kitchen at about 18 months old.
I had shit myself and my Mum saying 'Don't worry, just warn me next time' or something along those lines.
A little after this, My sister was born.
My Mum used to sit down at lunch time with me and my sister and we watched I think ' Watch with Mother'. Mum would breast feed my sister and she used to squirt her milk at me, when I got inquisitive, about what was going on.
I remember that milk was delivered by a man, horse and cart, with Urns of milk on the cart.
Dagenham at this time was new'ish ( 1959, I think the houses were built from 1947 ) , but still was quiet and there was little danger, as there were few cars around.
However, the bread was delivered on an electric trolley in slightly later years. I was about 4 years old and pre-school and I found out how it worked, with a lever on the handle and I started it, but couldn't stop.
I had the lady delivering the bread and my Mum chasing us down the road, screaming for me to let go and stop. Of course the lady caught me and stopped the trolley.

These are my first memories!

My Life!

Introduction

The past couple of days I have realised that my kids have little, if any, interest in my life!
An east end family, who moved out of London to Dagenham to have a better life.
My Father knew the gangsters in the east end of London, (but didn't go around with them)who claimed the life of my Dads friend, when my Dad was supposed to be drinking with him.

Also, I have always considered myself to be a complicated person, when actually I think I am on the borderline of something like aspergers.

So I started to think about my life and I can remember back to when I was about 18months old, living in Dagenham, Essex,UK.
I can remember all kind of things in my life, some funny, odd and sad.
Then I thought that actually, people don't know me and my background.

So I decided that I would try and serialise my memories;
My early life and how life was then, with horse and cart for milk delivery, how my parents made a happy home and family, how we had to care for a disabled boy and a thalidomide boy, how a neighbour abused me, being in a war and having a successful career as a financial trader.
Also, about my marriages and my son who died and my sexual situations that just couldn't be made up.

So this will go on for a while, but these are my memories and my life. Maybe one day my children will read and understand me better and even my wife!!

Farage is no mug, but another forward thinking Enoch Powell

Listen to the video of Farage in the EU parliament.
The reactions of the accused says it all.

Many were against Enoch Powell but alot of what he warned has come true. The same will occur with Farage.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rivers_of_Blood_speech

All I am saying is that things will happen.

The EU is a Federal State and is run by a few people. Why can't people see that?
Think logically about immigration.
I have said before that it is a natural progression that the white person is now an endangered species. Why?
Because cultures of different nationality have large families, so it becomes exponential.
Family arrives in Europe and has 6 kids and those 6 kids have 6 kids etc etc.
Now if you look at Calais. They are nearly all African background. Africa has famines and yet have families larger than the Western world, so it won't change. I have Nigerian friends and they have 5/6 children.

So from a common sense point of view immigration MUST be curtailed as much as possible, to survive longer.

But back to the EU.
It's run by Merkel, Hollande (any French Head of State), Juncker (from Luxembourg) Tusk (from Denmark), Charles Michel (Belgium which has almost been broke at least twice since the EU was established), Guy Verhohofstadt ( Brexit negotiaitor-Belgium).
Michel Barnier who is also to negotiate UK's Brexit.

So we have; Juncker, Verhofstadt and Barnier all hate the UK.
They want the UK out as soon as possible, so there is little in their path to control them.
However, there is no rush, because no one will be able to negotiate with the UK until elections have been made in 2017 in several countries.

All of this above affects the immigfration in Europe and what Farage says only repeats Enoch Powell, which he warned before the EU.

I will miss Farage as the only person speaking out. The UKIP party head Diane James won't go very far.

Hinckley point vs Chinese vs Cost

EDF was bought out by the Chinese.

A few weeks after this happened, the internet in the UK was hacked. Why? Because EDF runs part of our National Grid. Coincidence? I doubt it.
The Chinese are buying their way into countries in Asia, Africa, Australasia and now the Med.
Expect the Chinese to hold us to ransom!

Cost of Hinckley has been mentioned by the UK govt as GBP 18 bln.
So using past government projects, expect this to increase to GBP 54bln.

Bradwell which is near me was closed and cleaned up with spent Uranium being transported by rail through our town at 1am in the morning. Now we will get a new Nuclear power station, with new Uranium. Again built by the Chinese. So we expect an influx.

What does this mean?
1. Learn Mandarin
2. House prices go up
3. Work in a chinese takeaway!!
4. Expect an influx of chinese goods which will cause us an economic downturn unless they are very cheap!
5. Screw the EU single trade agreement/market. We will have China, Canada, Australia, NZ and numerous other countries, but mainly China.

Spar supermarket must be run by arseholes

Ok so last week I went to Spar and asked if they wanted some change. They obliged and said I was a 'life saver'.
This week I was told ' it isn't allowed' we have had a directive from Head Office not to take change from customers and the woman pointed out that she was caught on cctv for doing it when there was no directive!
This is some little squirt at Head Office, sitting in their seat, picking their nose and arse trying to think of something to justify their job!

So in future Spar, when you say you haven't got any change, not only will I say tough luck on your stupid rules, but I will also say take your goods back I am going elsewhere!

Stupid shits!

UK Government must process an interim Census

Census is obligatory and every 10 years. In todays world with the EU etc we could have another 5 million population and growing very fast, so how can the government get it's figures and funding needs better?
1. Process a census
2. On line and postal
3. Ancestry.com will have better data
4. Numbers of the population now can be compared to the government budgets, which will show a mismatch and black holes.
5. No one listed in the census, doesn't get NHS or benefits
6. Budgets can be calculated more easily by using a per capita baseline.
7. Tax's can be adjusted accordingly or cuts.
8. Will slow down illegal immigrants if they can't get benefits
9. The whole of the EU needs to do this now

If you are a corporation you would need to adjust all financial budgets, strategies etc based on the markets, this is the same thing!

Politicians just don't have a clue!!

Europe vs Apple and TTIPS coincidence?

So at the weekend the discussions for an agreement between the Americas (mainly USA) and Europe for a TTIPS Trade agreement failed.
Then on Tuesday in the papers it's announced that the tax break agreement with Apple to do it's trading from Ireland to pay hardly anything in tax, the EU say it was illegal and want 11bln euro tax to be paid for Ireland that they didn't ask!

What does this mean?
1. Europe revenge on the USA trying to sneak a financial blow to American companies as a reverse of what the TTIPS would have done
2. 2 fingers in the air for the UK's pawltry 150 million pounds from back tax and for Brexit
3. Ireland will consider pulling out of the EU due to loss of employment caused by EU.

Whether Ireland get the money and I am sure the EU will ask for it, is another thing!

Beware of the diddlies EU!

Brexit vote aftermath

Ok yes I know! I got it right and what has happened since.
I.e. Economy picking up.

This is how I see things now.

1. Bad news about the Brexit affect on the economy was down to Cameron and George Osbourne. They hid things in the economy and we still have items to come out.

2. Theresa May is very quiet. It's one thing to get things done, but poor communications is not good! What is her stance on the Chinese and Russians? I think she will play them off. Hinckley will go ahead, otehrwise all relations with China will depreciate and bearing in mind that they now own EDF, they have part of our National grid and as I said when it happened last time, they can spy on us with phone calls in government, emails, stop electricity etc to make us accept them.

3. I can see that the government will try and persuade the EU to make concessions to try and stop us pulling out of the EU. Invoking clause 50 is essential to get things going. Delaying is just causing issues.

4. If we don't Brexit then I expect civil unrest. We will see the UK sidelined as a weak nation. I can see the Tories losing power.

5. We need to agree trade agreements with- Canada, USA, Australia, NZ and other countries, to improve our break from EU. These are countries we have been blocked. I think we should make agreements as soon as we invoke Clause 50. what will the EU do? Fine us! They are going to crucify our contributions anyway

6. Labour, as I said before will split, there is nothing more to say. The Unions are pulling the strings and Corbyn is just a Trotskyite.

7. The EU will impose all kinds of funding requirements to us during the time of Brexit or not!

8. If Corbyn gets in, then it really will be the last person out turn the light off!

9. I see massive unrest in the EU due to immigration

10. I believe Angela Merkel will be voted out next year.

11. I see Turkey being refused entry to the EU based on their human rights records getting worse. Then they will retaliate to the EU and let in many more from Syria etc. This will cause massive civil unrest in Europe, more crime, more rapes etc Muslims believe that ALL western women are whores, so they will do what they want, along with the various mafias with prostitution.

12. I can't see Trump winning, but I don't see Clinton doing anything either. Trump is too volatile, but he will have proved a point for the USA citizens.

Eu gets the UK taxes

For years I have been saying that the EU was after the UK taxes.
I read this morning that the EU has already drawn up to take our taxes via a single tax system.
This means a tax rise in the UK.
Maximum tax rates in EU:
Netherlands 52%
Germany 45% but lower level of tax entry
France 49%
Italy 45%
Luxembourg 40%
Portugal 46.5%
Sweden 56.6%
UK 47% but we have different bands and income levels

The chances are that we will pay more tax. In the EU they do have allowances, to bring the income levels down.

The 4th Reich and the economical collapse of Italy

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/05/15/the-fourth-reich-is-here---without-a-shot-being-fired/

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2016/05/11/italy-must-chose-between-the-euro-and-its-own-economic-survival/

Basically, everything they claim the EU will do for the UK is all garbage.
Economically the EU is collapsing
Culturally its turning

As I mentioned previously:
Greece          Unemployment 1 in 3
Spain            Unemployment 1 in 4
Italy              Unemployment 1 in 3
Germany      Unemployment 1 in 25
Bulgaria       Unemployment 1 in 10
Romanian    Unemployment  1 in 12 ( only half a country left)
Poland         Unemployment 1 in 10
France         Unemployment 1 in 10
Montenegro Unemployment 1 in 5
Turkey         Unemployment 1 in 9
UK               Unemployment 1 in 20

Message to those in favour of the UK remaining in the EU

To you all 'Remain' voters.

I hope you will be accountable when we receive the full force of the EU Federal State.

We will have no control on borders.
We will have no control who the EU states send to the UK.
We will have no control of our money going to the EU and member states.
We will have no control of our law.
We will have no control of the TTIP that will be voted in by non-elected MP's and the consequences
We will not have control of taxes
We will have no control of stupid rules ( like the new one this year to ban small packs of cigarettes)
We will have no control of bureaucracy in business
We as the UK will be a non-entity.

Just a few things mentioned

One very good reason not to stay in the EU - Democracy

There is no transparency in the EU
There is no Accountability in the EU
No MEP is voted in and therefore, no elected representative
Decisions are made without information
Leaders of departments are not elected
MEP's misuse expenses with no penalty
Laws are passed with no vote
UK gave Europe democracy and that's why they want a Federal State!
UK introduced Democracy hundreds of years ago to the Europeans, but now we are going back to the Roman times and we all know what happened there eventually.

Vote Leave!!

Trevor Philips and the racial tension survey

Trevor Philips had a cushy job at the Racial commission.
Always against the white man as far as I am concerned and caused alot of issues.
He now comes out with a new TV programme, surprise, surprise! and says that he didn't realise what the Muslim people in the UK thought.
Basically:
1. They like UK because its free
2. As long as they can do what they want and keep sharia they are happy.
3. They will not mix with non-muslims
4. They will not enter houses of non-muslims
5. They can't have gays
6. They teach young boys to be Motawwah (religious police) Any girl not wearing a scarf on their head are 'slags' (their words not mine)

So is it surprising when they rape white girls and run brothels for kids??
It's only surprising to the government and to 'do gooders' like Trevor Philips.
When you have lived in the Middle East like me, it's business as usual!!

Trevor Philips is in it for what he can earn and always has done. Please stop pandering to him media.

Cameron is an idiot, so now expect Brexit

Cameron has tried to lie his way through the Panama tax situation.
He advocated against all forms of tax evasion and said he would close loopholes, when he has been taking advantage himself.

Now he is going to be reported to the Parliamentary committee.

This only means that people will NOT trust him anymore and he has lost all credibility.

It will now turn more people to vote for Brexit.

They always get found out in the end!!

Conservatives have really screwed the steel industry

Steel industry in decline.
Tata say that losses each month cannot continue.

Tata closes its operations- huge costs to the UK government and massive unemployment. Union disruption which will get physical and other strike pending.

WHAT DOES THE UK GOVERNMENT DO.
ORDERS 2000 TONNES OF STEEL FOR BUILDING UK SUBS TO THE BLOODY FRENCH!!

What idiots do we vote in?

Let more women top industry and government and see what really happens in a screwed up world.
(Only 'cos it's by gender employment from the EU and not capability)

Cameron is a Conservative liability now

He opens his mouth and promises the earth, never delivers and then finds out he has shot himself in the foot.
2 examples:

1. He will cut down tax avoidance - His Father is listed as having money hiding in Panama

2. He talks to China to save Port Talbot steel works - Day later China slap on a 46% surcharge on UK steel!

He threatens us on voting to leave the EU with all kinds of things, with no explanation.

Cameron is not liked by the electorate and has already said he won't stay as leader. The question is, who can be a leader. They are all buffoons and not one is a statesman or decent politician of any kind.

Labour are all communists now and stench of Animal Farm characters.

Liberals have disappeared.
SNP what everything from the UK and don't want to pay for anything and they have no experienced MP or policies worth talking about. They already have massive holes in their finances. How many Scots people do you know who can show they are prudent with money. They are either tight or loose with expenditure.

At the moment we are in desperate times politically and economically. It's just hidden at the moment.

The government can't understand why savings are down when the economics are up.
1. On the street we can see that something isn't right
2. Rich get richer
3. government wants more tax, so we spend to stop them getting our money
4. Corporate profits are out of the country to all the countries we have sold UK PLC.

It doesn't take a brain surgeon does it Dave!! Get to grips you numptie

EU will punish the UK no end if we Brexit-even in football

So the UK is part of Europe unless the Germans and French say so!
They have threatened to ban all UK football teams from the European football tournaments of we vote to come out of the Eu!

Ok so we can ban all footballers who are non-UK back to their own countries, which will mean alot of unemployed rich footballers or alot of well paid footballers earning a pittance of what they do now!

What would happen if we join the leagues in the USA which have much more advertising and sponsorship? The USA has already said that they will pay alot more to get good players over there!
What an opportunity the UK has.

Unfortunately, Wales, Scotland and Ireland will be included as well in the ban on European cups.

I would think that the Far East would also switch alliances to the USA if it happened as would the betting syndicates.

The way the Germans and the French are going, they could really screw up their sport and the finances, cos this would also stop the wealthy Arabs buying into their clubs also.

What happened to non-political sports?

As this was published 1st April, is it a hoax?

Never trust a china man

So we are such good friends with China.
Osbourne has been courting them to the nth degree.
Our steel manufacturing is in decline because of the chinese saturating the market with cheap steel.
Then Cameron goes begging to them, so that they can help.
What do they do?
Slap a 46% tax levy on UK steel!

As I reported the other day RIP UK Steel!!

The Chinese want a monopoly to hold everyone to ransom.

How about we do what the Chinese would do. Impose a surcharge of 100% for Chinese steel!

The Steel industry in the UK is a dead horse

So the actions of Unions over the years is coming to rest.
TATA want to sell all of its steel foundries in the UK.

The only corporation likely to buy it, would be the Chinese, but they will want a huge subsidy.
Why?
Well the Chinese have been flooding the market with cheap steel, which has helped to fuel this failure.
TATA have said the cost is too much and as a business you can't blame them if there is no profit.
The steel industry is still run by the unions and only want to save their own necks.
Here is a new idea.
Keep the workers and sack the unions! No I don't think they will go for it either.

So it's doomed! Our car industry is out of the window compared to 25 years ago.
The ship industry is out of the window compared to 25 years ago.
The construction is less.

So the order books are down and why would the industries buy expensive steel?

RIP Steel industry UK.

The European Central Bank is so inept its unbelievable! Which is why they hate the English.

The Eurozone is in turmoil.
Unemployment in Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Greece etc.
Exports are down.
Economies are spiralling down.
The economy going into Stagnation and possibly, Depression and yet the Germans must show the Euro as being strong.

Any economist will tell you (especially from Japan) that to help the exports the currency has to decrease in value

STG vs Euro 1.2700
USD vs Euro 1.1300.

The value should be a minimal

STG vs Euro 1.5875
USD vs Euro 1.4125

This will make their exports cheaper!

They really don't have a clue!!

Eu pleading for the UK to stay has no basis

I am seeing EU leaders threatening the UK, I am seeing the Americans pleading.
But where is the incentive???
I am not seeing Germany or France changing their stance to keep the UK in.
The Brussels bombings highlights that they didn't tell the Brits intelligence.
They are not embracing the UK, but they are happy to take its money.
Also, they know, that if the UK leaves the EU and a lot of free loading jobs for the invisible people will stop!! Which is more like the reason to keep us in.

Conservatives will lose the EU referendum and then get a revote

The conservatives are in a mess after Ian Duncan-Smith resigned.
This pushes voters to sway to vote to leave the EU.
I see this result and hope for this result.

However, what will happen, is that we vote to leave. EU partners Germany and France will panic and start announcing that the UK will be a major part of decisions and throw in a few more corrections.

Then the Conservatives will talk about a re-vote based on the new announcements.
They are great at dropping things, only to re-establish later in another way.

What the Conservatives will fail to say, is that the EU is more or less dead now, especially, in the way it was initially established.

Beware of delivery men and deliveries

The mass immigration brings in gangs and pikeys, that we Brits are not used, to or street wise to.

1. Local delivery for a council of 10,000 pounds worth of toys for kids.
    within 24 hours, the lock up had an attempted break in and then was burnt. Toys destroyed!

2. Delivery of loads of electrical cable to a company. Delivery man very helpful and went out of his way to help my contacts electrical company. Within 24 hours the storage was broken into.

Shops catching us for charity

Shopping in Ryman and Robert Dyas today for stationary and hardware.
At the checkout they ask ' do you want to give a pound for Sports Relief?'

I said, ' why would I do that, when the government just put more sugar tax on drinks etc for sports in schools?'

Mmmm, something not right here?

Needless to say....no pound was given!

Teachers are cheap child care after the budget

The budget produces an end to the school day at 3.30.
Osborne announces that kids can stay at school until 5pm.
1. No news of extra lessons
2. Seems it's for play time
3. Parents won't have to pay for carers
4. Very cheap child care as teachers will have to stay longer.

Are we really that stupid??

Expect more teachers strikes and Union upheaval

Chris Evans is a tosser!

Top Gear producer resigns, because she said, Chris Evans is a control freak!
He wants to control everything.

So the team arrange a wheel spinning stunt at the Cenotaph in London and when there is a load of criticism, Evans denies all knowledge and blame Matt LeBlanc.

Now to close off Whitehall and to pull a stunt requires police approval and for them to close the street and divert traffic, even early Sunday morning is no small feat. Otherwise it's illegal and a road traffic offence

So how does Chris Evans think, that anyone believes the pathetic whimp!!

I hope the show flops!

Good simple points from Ian Duncan-Smith

If the EU is so good why:

Is France Languishing with massive unemployment
Is Spain got 60 pct unemployment
Is Italy and Germany struggling with unemployment
Is Greece in a such a diabolical mess with salaries now below 500 euro a month for families and bartering has returned to live.


These are just a few basic points!

Rule Brittania

It is now that we must pull out of the unrecognisable EU that we signed up for in 1973.

The British people are not stupid and can see what is going on.
The arguments have more reason for pulling out than those not provided by Cameron.

It is obviously a very real possibility as Obama is now intervening.
When would the USA allow the British to get involved with their affairs??
As I have said a few times now, the USA needs us to be there so that we can be their spies.
Otherwise, the USA will need to employ a shed load of spies.

The Scots can go to hell!
They are in deep shit with their finances and to pull out of the EU, they lose a load of benefits from both the EU and the UK. Also, they will have to pay out for new currency, new agreements, Embassies etc etc.
They will lose free prescriptions and medicine that the UK cannot get for cancer , but they can and many more, free University for their nationals.

They will go bust within 5-7 years and have the IMF knocking on their door.

Fish will either become restricted or just too expensive if we stay in the EU

The EU have drawn up plans to take control of our fishing rights.
This means more control for the UK fishermen but a free for all for France and Spain!!!

Don't ever let Turkey join the EU!!

1. They have a mafia for Drugs, People, money laundering.
2. They have 77 million people and a large percentage who are poor
3. The poor people will come to Europe to drain the benefits from us
4. No checks of people coming from Syria or the Middle East in general.

The UK needs control of it's borders asap.

Did you know that the EU has already drawn up their control of the UK borders , if we vote to stay in.
Oh yes, lets ship all the shit to the UK!!!

The EU is in trouble economically

With the EU Finance minister Mr Draghi in disarray on how to tackle the EU economics I would like to say, that I said this years ago ' the ECB /EU cannot tackle the finances of an individual country by having a centralised decision unit'.
So they are now panicking about disinflation/stagflation and reduced the Bank lending rate by 10 basis points, which means that the only way for the ECB to be able to make money on lending at -0.4% is for the rate to fall lower. Having a negative interest rate means that the Lender is paying the borrower to take money.
With all the refugees and immigration aspects you can imagine that economic woes will be transferred to other countries, which in turn means it will get a lot worse.

On top of this the EU wants to give Turkey double the money they are being offered now for taking more refugees.
All this means is that Turkey will take the money, eventhough they are NOT in the EU and let the refugees to keep coming!!
The EU really are stupid!

EU are becoming a joke of all proportions!

The EU has no idea how to sort out the refugee siutation, which says it all.
Even a quick fix of paying off Turkey is illegal!

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/turkey/12187576/EU-Turkey-deal-on-refugees-would-contravene-international-law.html

They don't have a clue.


The economic threats continue, but I still can't see collectively, why they are panicking.
Foreign companies would stay here if we make a flat rate tax as I keep saying.
There are other measures, but the government is trying to push the 'In' vote no matter what

Can the EU be on its way out?

Brexit or not, it is possible that its a waste of time.
If the EU can't sort it's immigration issue out, the EU will collapse.
On top of this Russia is forcing the immigration issue to break the EU.
By bombing the Syrians and forcing them out then most of the 23 million will want to leave and move to the EU which Financially, Economically and Politcally, cannot cope.

Why are we flogging this dead horse?

EU opinion

It's taken me a week to read and have a think about the referendum and whether the UK is better in or out!
Conclusion - we are better off out of the EU and it will be better for our children. Countries that want us to stay is for their own benefit and not ours.

So let me make the points below and then it's up to other people to make their own judgement.

1. It has perturbed me why Cameron and Osborne are trying to scaremonger us to stay in the EU

2. There are no facts given, just threats.

3. All I hear from Cameron is - If we don't stay in we will have to do a lot of work to keep out economy going. I also hear, - We don't know what to expect, but I prefer not to have an unknown.

4. From my own perspective, if we stay in, it's the same, because the EU will just suck us up, take our money and spit us out.

5. Armed forces - Germany's constitution says it can't send troops on to fight. It states that it can support from a second line! What good is that if you are being attacked. France gives up, Italy runs and the other countries are just too small or can fight like Guerillas. The UK has cut it's forces so much we all know, that if the Argentines went into the Falklands, we will have to give up and Cameron will have lied about the state of our armed forces.

6. MEP get 150,000 basic salary. They also get expenses for their staff, who can be relatives
( Kinnock had his wife, son and daughter in law), plus as we have seen this week they also get 120,000 pounds for general expenses which they don't need receipts. so a total of 350,000-400,000 pounds a year is achievable.

7. Security - Cameron has said we shouldn't pull out because of European security. This is ridiculous. Recently the German police stopped a terrorist on the border with arms going to France, but they omitted to tell the French! There is no collaboration going on, but the UK does share it's intelligence.
Recently, the Germans complained to the USA that they had tapped Angela Merkel's phone and said you don't do that to friends! However, this week it has been revealed that the Germans did the same to Joh Kerry. SO the whole security angle is mixed with lies and deceit.

8. UK Control - In order for us to get control back from the EU for our borders, our law, finances etc we need to leave. Laws are being brought in by people who we have not voted for, Never heard of and we can't sack. This is NOT democracy!! A law in the EU states that in the UK we cannot lower energy bills, because the EU is in the hands of the corporate world and the bankers. Demands on UK Business is vast and wastes time and money. Cameron and Osborne have tried to cut the 'red tape' but for some reason they won't do it. This means that competitiveness is controlled by company and by country.

9. Tony Benn said - (a) what power have you got? (b) where did you get the power? (c) In whose interest do you use the power? (d) To whom are you accountable? (e) How can we get rid of you?
In the EU, no one is accountable, No one can be sacked, nothing is transparent.
10. If we stay in the EU it's because we have fear of the unknown and the fear of if we can stand on our own 2 feet. The UK has always done this and I don't see why it would change

11. Employment - Corporates like uncontrolled EU immigration, as it keeps cheap labour. The original law was for free movement ONCE you had a job, not because you wanted to emigrate!!

12. Immigration - EU makes it more difficult or nearly impossible for the UK to deport up to 7000 criminals we are reported to have in the UK from abroad. Whether it's organised crime, murderers, rapists they all claim rule 8 of the Human Rights Act. It's like the Muslim Hamza- 'Hook' it cost us 10 million pounds because we couldn't extradite him. However, if we did, the EU would have fined us 2,000 pounds! The UK wants to stick with the law.
Also, as an act of humanity, we have taken a few thousand refugees from Syria, which is good. However, what the EU doesn't look at are the exponential population growth. The average Muslim family will have 5 children. If the UK takes in 50,000, then each generation of these numbers, increase our population by 250,000 times 5 for each child every 20 years= 1.25 million.
Why is it that in Calais it's mainly men waiting to come to thenUK. Most are unskilled and many commit crime. Do we need them!!! The 16 year old on the TV was correct. Cancel the UK immigration for a points system then the unskilled worker from EU and the top doctor from India are on a level pegging. The UK population is expected to grow to 80 million which is 23% growth from current levels. We don't have the housing, schooling, infrastructure, NHS to support this.
Think about the organisations that will or are coming in; Bulgaria (racketeering, Financial theft, car, Prostitution ), Turkish (people, prostitution, drugs, arms) Syria (people), Albania (Drugs, arms, people, human organs), Romanian (Drugs, Forgery, robberies, pickpocketing)

13. Exports -  currently the EU sell 59 bln pounds more goods to the UK than we sell to the EU. Where is the benefit of this? Why did Cameron mention the Whisky exports, will EU stop buying whisky if we pull out? Very much doubt it. In fact if Scotland stay in the EU then it won't change at all!

14. Cameron's goals for his negotiations  -
Basically he failed miserably.
Welfare - He got the concession to stop benefits to immigrants from the EU. However, he can't do this for at least a year and in this time the EU can force the UK to take as many as they want. The UK can only do this for  period of 7 years, then they have no recourse.
Child Benefit - He failed for the UK to stop child benefit being paid to their families in their own country and just got a inflation cap. Also it won't come into effect until 2020 and by then there will be millions for being paid.
Economic Governance - The UK can delay not stop, 19 countries having changes made to their markets and also taxation, but there has to be 28 countries who agree with the UK. This will never happen. So EU can ask order us to ay more taxes and it's likely we can't stop it.
Closer Union - His only win. So the UK can have a special membership level.

15. BREXIT - It will take the UK 2 years to pull out and in the mean time we have to pay everything as per current situation.

16. Can the EU reform - NO it can't and they don't have the will to do so. It is a typical conglomerate like Woolworths, FIFA or the FA, old decrepit and archaic, run by the old boy network.
It spends money, buys and builds new buildings and it's all for show and power.

17. Finance - France and Germany have wanted the UK financial centre for years. Germany;s stock exchange has just taken over the UK Stock Exchange, so they are there, but the French want their piece of action and it will come, as part of a bilateral agreement with Germany. The French also want the UK to charge a tax for all financial trades and this includes an individuals life insurance, medical insurance, pension etc. The EU has said that the UK will NOT be bailing out any bank in the EU. This is a blatant lie. We did with the Greek banks. There is also a little know fund we have to contribute to and recently we were told we had to increase our contribution by 4 bln pounds. Also we have to back the IMF with cash and this is lent to banks in Greece, so this is totally false.

18. The UK fund the EU by 11 bln pounds a year which is due to increase. Bearing mind what France gets out of the EU why do we as a smaller country pay so much. The same for Holland and Denmark.

19. The EU is totally run by the Germans and French. It was thy that established the EU back in the early 1900's and then eventually when the UK joined in 1973.

20. According to Cameron- if we stay in it's damned if we do and damned if we don't!

21. USA - Want the UK to stay in the EU because we are their puppets, we are their ears and eyes of Europe

22. The UK went into the EU in 1973 because we were in a mess economically and politically after a bad Labour government, although it was Edward Heath of the Conservatives who did the signing. He did say at the time that it wouldn't be good, he didn't have a choice.

Migrants from France - Thugs

After todays actions and other days actions, why do we want such thugs in the Uk????

They are just scum and mainly men in Calais.

Cameron really isn't thinking the EU through very well!

I have read most newspapers over the past 2 days, about what the EU gas offered the UK, to stay in the UK!
In fact it isn't much and Cameron isn't actually telling the truth, but he isn't lying either, he just isn't telling us everything.

1. It appears that what they have agreed, isn't legally binding and is likely to be changed
2. The benefits holiday can't be implemented till 2020, which means we could have an extra 2 million in the UK.
3. If you read and listen to what Cameron is saying, lacks any substance.
4. What I do hear, is that it will take a great deal of work, by the politicians to give the UK other markets and agreements for trade
5. Most of our judicial system will disappear, when we are leaders in this field
6. France want London to tax all financial transactions to stop our competitiveness
7. Osborne is about to plunder the pensions and the tax free sum we currently get, so a smoke screen is good, currently
8. Cameron quotes that it will affect our whisky exports (a) Scotland will want to stay in, so why? (b) people won't drink whisky, because we are not in the EU? I think not
9. Cameron says that foreign companies give employment. So will they stop? I am sure their tax gains won't stop. As I mentioned a few weeks ago the Google tax is 2pct and it's only now being quoted in the newspapers! This won't stop or increase.
10. Holidays will cost more. Possibly but at the moment holidays to the Middle East are well down and people are travelling in Europe, so what will go up if we pull out? Landing fees possibly, but in Europe we can drive or get a train etc and we pay the same as all Europeans.
11. We will have to continue paying for the EU some years after we leave!
12. Cameron states that we won't pay for any financial support to banks. Yes we will in a another amount of funding we have to pay. This can be raised across the board as we were caught when the Greek banks needed support. It cost us another Euro 4 bln


I think most of the threats are for laziness.
What the MP's in the UK should think is 'Happy Days' if we pull out.
(a) we will be busy
(b) we can fiddle more
(c) we can travel more

Maybe Cameron should tell them that if we stay, we won't need half the politicians, as it will be handled from the European parliament by Stavros, Pierre, Fritz or Angela !!!

Anarchy has begun!

Houses robbed in daylight and even the thieves are not covering their faces for CCTV.
Women being robbed with their kids. A lady was strangled until unconscious when putting her baby in the car and robbed.
Lady robbed in the papers tonight in the street.
Ladies robbed by  thieves on a motor bike/scooter.

Where are the police? there aren't any! they have been made redundant by the government.

Anarchist mobs will cause fights and havoc all over the country.

Foreigners from the Middle East and ex-commie countries don't value life, they will kill anytime.

Oh yes it will get alot worse.

We are killing our human race.

Are the EU running scared!

Having seen the headlines today in the newspapers, it seems the EU are running scared that the UK could pull out!

Headlines:
EU declares war on drivers
Eu to make a trade war if we Brexit

UK Motorists should pay congestion charge to drive in every town say Brussels climate change meddlers!
It seems the climate change only happens where the UK motorists are!

It's odd that Cameron goes out to Germany to talk to Angela Merkel to discuss a renegotiation of our membership, but no sooner is his back turned, she starts warnings about trade.

It seems to me that losing our billions of funding will hurt them a great deal.
Also, it appears that our trade is a threat as well.
It won't 'cos we will win . It's likely that the pound will fall significantly, which then makes our goods a lot cheaper than Germany or France.

Also, why are the U.S. wanting us to stay in?
Because we are their puppet and ears for whats going on in the EU.

So at the end of the day, it suits everyone else that we stay in, but not the UK.
You can bet your life that if we pull out, the Greeks will certainly pull out, as might, Spain and Italy.

So all in all it seems the Brexit are the team to back!

Threats of an invasion if the UK pulls out of the EU

Threats from the ex-UK Ambassador to France, that if we Brexit, then agreements between France and the UK for the refugees will be ended and that 80,000 people from the camps etc will come to the UK!

I am asking why?
1. They are nearly all single men
2. Most are unemployable or would get low paid jobs in the black market
3. We would impose our own benefits clamp down for 7 years
4. We could close our borders
5. We could patrol the tunnel with mad dogs
6. It could bring employment to companies to secure the tunnel
7. We could employ them as police
8. Introduce National service for a period of 5-7 years for all refugees, we already have some French general coming into the UK armed forces, so there is a precedent.

Just a few things to think about.

But it goes to show what the pro- EU and how low Mr Cameron will stoop to!!

Actress claims sexual assault when a man brushed against her in a busy Waterloo station

http://metro.co.uk/2016/02/07/london-commuter-put-on-trial-for-sex-assault-despite-no-evidence-that-it-happened-5667116/

So this is what we have inherited from the USA.
The guy has both hands full but she claims sexual assault.

What I hate is that the guy is named and as usual the claimant isn't allowed to be named.

This is why there can never be equality in the real world.
1. The actress makes a claim
2. The man goes through a year of hell
3. The woman isn't named, even if it's a blatant lie as proven in previous court cases.

An EU Treasury in the offering !

So the EU now want their own Treasury. Are there enough freeloading Government officials to do this? You bet!
It means that some ministers will get double pay!
However, th EU will look to to screw the UK big time on this. They will take our taxes from every angle possible and there will be nothing we can do- why?
'Cost the bloody stupid UK government will have given the countries away and there will be no UK ministers able to say anything. In fact I can see the Houses of parliament becoming empty and redundant, to a point that it will become Harry Potters new home!
Taxes will go up on all utilities, we will be fined for all kinds of things, like; not speaking German or French.
Yes it's these 2 powers that are pushing for it.

I was watching a programme on BBC2 last night Simon Reeves in Greece.
Interesting and all for us to look forward to.
50% unemployment for the young.
Wages hardly a living wage
No benefits
A priest in Crete said they hate the Germans and now they have taken over Greece by economic factors rather than overrunning them in the war. Most still have guns to fight when ready!
In Athens, there are anarchist protests, where there is always petrol bombs thrown at the police, violence occurs, in fact law and order is breaking down fast in Athens.

This can happen in the UK and I don't think we are too far from it.

I know I am being pessimistic, but over the years, I have become a good forecaster of events, which is why I write this blog.

So why do our politicians insist on selling their souls and us?
They are not real politicians and are only in it for them, so it's all short term stuff. They don't give a toss on what they are doing to their children and grandchildren.

EU to kill off the UK

Abu Hamzas son marries a woman from Morocco and then she comes to the UK based on her husbands location.
A year later the Labour government grant her a visa to stay indefinitely. eventhough the family are under scrutiny.
2 years later they divorce and within a short time they remarry(questionable motive)
Then she falls pregnant and has the baby in the UK.

She is then caught trying t get a mobile phone to Abu Hamza into Belmarsh prison.
She gave all kind of excuses, but got jailed.
After serving time she applied for asylum, which didn't come into being beforehand. Asylum from what? the only one would be against the UK government!

Anyway, her husband gets 11 years, for robbery in a jewel raid.

Needless to say the UK govt refused her claim.
She then takes them to the Human Rights laws, which is a favourite place for Cherie Blair and Amal Clooney, who, surprise, surprise, holds up her claim under the usual clause 8 of the Human Rights Act- ' having a right to a family life!'

Now let me get this right, her father in law is in prison abroad, her husband is in jail in the UK and she has a family??
Apparently the cruncher was the kid. As it was born here, they won't send her back to Morocco or another more suitable Muslim country to raise her child.

So now you can imagine, any reprobate or criminal will be sent top the island of the UK, when Cameron forces through the UK to stay in the EU.

2-5 years after we are forced to stay in the EU by Cameron, the UK won't exist anymore and will be totally unlawful!!

The EU brings into the UK massive criminality in drugs

Albanians have now taken over most of the London drug trade.

545kg of cocaine taken by police worth Gbp 80 million

The Albanian gangs have undercut the gangs in London.
Also involved in the sex trade, Illegal immigration

8 men jailed for a total of 53 years for cocaine running.

Now the Bulgarians are the best car thieves

Turkish are involved in drugs and Illegal Immigration

It's funny but lets take a look at this.
Albanian, Turks, Syrians, Iraqis, Bulgarian, Boka Haram, Isil -  whats the common factor here?
They are partially or all muslim countries!

Look at Germany, they have taken a lot of the Syrian refugees and straight away the german women get sexually abused.
I have worked in the Middle East on and off for 15 years and have many Arab friends, but the men all class western women as whores. So I am surprised that western govt officials don't know this. Once they get out of their own environment they go wild and won't think anything about raping women who are western. Believe me it will get worse.
From  Syria and Iraq expect another 2 mio people, 'cos the Middle East countries don't want them, because they would lose control of their own people.

Why are there so many Arab mobile phone companies along Edgeware road, with no one in them?
They are all fronts for illegal activities!!

I could go on, but I think you get my drift.

Headlines try to show panic that the pound could lose 20 pct of it's value

This was in the press yesterday and a head line from Goldman Sachs.
Are we to panic?

Absolutely not!

Let me explain.

Todays exchange rate to the USDollar is 1.4500
A 20 pct devaluation will put the rate to 1.16.
Euro 1.30 after devaluation 1.04.

What does this mean?
Ok so if you buy products from the UK from another country it will cost you less amount of dollars for the one pound.
So instead of paying 1.45 dlrs you will be charged 1.16
So this is happy days for the exporters of goods abroad.
On the flip side it means goods from abroad will be more expensive for the converse reason.
Therefore, by economics it means manufacturing in the UK increase or orders of a service increases, more staff to employ and therefore, more money to be spent in this country. Which in turn puts GDP up.
The downside is that inflation rises as there is more money in the system and therefore interest rates will rise to stem inflation.
Common sense says here, when we can say ' do we care?'
Inflation is at 0.1 to 0.2 pct so nothing!
But what it will do, is to ruin the EU economy and the UK will boom.
It takes 9 months to a year for any affect from a devaluation, so there is plenty of time.

So any attempt to make people panic is absolutely rubbish and is quite the opposite.

Cameron has lost either way on the EU

As I mentioned before, the EU will dangle the line for Cameron and then reel him in!
The rumours were of a EU to give concessions to Cameron, for the UK to stay In the EU.
Then since yesterday, the papers say that they are watering down the agreement.
Let's make it clear, unless it suits Germany, we won't get anything.
Otherwise they will screw the UK and then make changes to suit them, along the lines the UK wanted in the first place. However, it still means they screw the UK.
Cameron will make an agreement, no matter what they say. He will screw the UK electorate, no matter what he says about Brexit threats to pull out. He doesn't have the balls and he will not want to go down in history as a failure, although pulling out, isn't a failure.
Norman Lamont says today that pulling out of the EU will NOT mean a loss of jobs, because exports and Imports are still required and the need for our goods ill not stop, just because we are not in the EU.
This is correct. All the UK has to do, is to make new trade agreements.

I have campaigned for a while on my reports that the UK should have a flat rate tax for individuals and companies of 23%. This is non negotiable but still a huge saving for conglomerates. Blow mw this weekend, the same thing comes up in the press. Mainly about Lithuania, that has the same and is thriving. By doing this, it would bring many more companies and tax revenue to the UK.
Politicians and the civil service university bods, really have no idea!!

EU is a huge threat to all member countries

The EU isn't so much a club, but more like a uncontrolled bulldozer.
It's completely run at the moment by a few people, who are not elected and not accountable.
Look at Angela Merkal. Although voted as an MP in Germany she is calling the shots with;
Jean Claude-Junker (who hates the UK)
Hollande ( French are net takers from the EU coffers).

It has now arrived at the point, where countries won't pull out, because of fear of the unknown, of not being in the EU, no matter how much it costs.

Cameron will sell the UK soul and heart and we won't be able to do anything about it.

Since the EU was signed of original 9 countries, it has grown out of control from an ideology that was based on Economics into a beats of politics. The more politics, the more can be done and with no accountability. Look at the UK parliament, it's so bad now that we don't have MP's fighting for it's electorate, but fighting for an ounce of something to justify their jobs. However, they will lose their jobs soon, by the very fact of what they are doing. Let me explain.

Cameron and his cronies are fighting for the UK to stay in the EU. If they succeed, this will allow the EU to do whatever they want. Since the EU was established we have seen the EU agree on numerous items, only to get around them, or to change it all by changing the wording. When it's realized by our MP's, it's too late and nothing can be done. This is how they will lose their jobs, because the EU will eventually impose a single parliament for ALL member states. As we are all one, then we can have a foreign parliament controlling the UK, with maybe a few UK MP's and thats it.
The UK Parliament is run by civil servants, not the MP's and the same is for the EU. None descriptive, not accountable, and no transparency.

Europe has always been jealous of our tax system. Even today the French are criticizing that Google only paid 130 millions pounds in tax and now says the UK is a tax haven!
No mention of the fact that all the large selling sites have their taxes registered in Luxembourg and therefore, may very little there. Who is stationed in Luxembourg? yes it's EU Legal system and EU parliament off shoots.
Once the EU get their hands on the UK PLC they will impose taxes all to go to the EU.

Armed forces. The UK is depleted and there is a EU task force. However, the main member, Germany, states in their constitution that they cannot go to war! That's why the German forces will not be at the front line.

Economy. Again the UK has always been good at managing it's economy over the hundreds of years. The Europeans have always had difficulty in this area. You can bet your bottom dollar that it will always be the UK at the bottom of the pile for helping in this line. If we are taken over, how can we create competition by lowering prices by using Foreign Exchange or interest rates. We won't because the EU will control it all.

The EU won't agree to an NHS, because most other countries don't have one themselves. So all medical will be covered by private insurance. This will be controlled by the Pharmaceutical companies.

Have no doubt, the EU IS controlled by conglomerate companies and banks, because they control all the member state MP's.

These are just a few things to point out. There are more , but it would go on too long.

So ultimately, if Cameron doesn't stand up for the UK, we can kiss our arses good bye!!
If Cameron stands up then the other member countries will also stand up.

Downturn on economy

I confirm what i said in my blog entitled '2016' back on 27th December 2015.
I see quite a bit of a downturn on the global economies, which will hit the UK.
Believe it or not it's backed by an index called ' Baltic dry Index'.
This is really an unknown index which measures the shipping of raw materials and their costs etc.
We are currently lower than when the global economy sank back in 2008.
So this doesn't bode well. I have said that the UK economy is still fragile and it was right that the BOE hasn't raised interest rates.
The whole manufacturing thing in China over the past 15 years would make sense for the index, as raw materials had to be imported by China.
Now they have a double whammy.
They bought alot of raw material companies in Asia and they bought 95% of rare Earth material companies. Now that their industry has gone down they won 't need to ship as much, which will mean companies going under in various countries, which means unemployment and less money to be spent in those countries.
This is against the forecasts of the UK government, but they always tell people what they want to hear-right?
So not good!

Don't believe what you think you read or hear about Cameron in Davos and the EU

2 things stick out for me in the Prime Ministers speech in Davos.

1."My aim is absolutely clear: I want to secure the future of Britain in a reformed European Union. That is the best outcome for Britain and for Europe.

2."If there is a good deal on the table, I will take it. If there isn't the right deal. I'm not in a hurry. I can hold my referendum at any time before the end of 2017. It is much more important to get this right, rather than rush it."

Taken from TheTelegraph
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/financetopics/davos/12112039/Davos-2016-David-Cameron-Brexit-EU-referendum-WEF-live.html

1. He isn't looking to leave the EU, no matter what
2. He will take the take a good deal.

Also the rule 8 of the Humans Rights act strikes again.
4 people in a holding place for immigrants in Europe have taken the UK to court under this rule, which gives the 'right of a family life', when anyone from the family, wife, Husband, Daughter, Son, Cousin, second cousin etc.
The Human Rights court ( who are these people? mainly non-UK judges) has said that they have a right to come to the UK.
This now leaves 90,000 the same right!!
So much for the new immigration and boirder controls they want to bring in.

Basically, The Eu is all bollocks and a way for Europe to 'get at the UK'
