Even the Latvians say the UK is a soft touch

In the newspaper today they interview an out of work waste of time slob from Latvia.
He came to the UK under the EU rules and then squats in a STG 10 mio house with all kinds of luxuries.
The 21 year old says"Why would I ever need a job!"
He also says " Obviously I couldn't do this in my own country, I would be arrested!"
He shows the reporter elegant fireplaces, marble floors and said " he didn't know how many rooms were in the house, after he climbed through a toilet window to squat.
Silly me I thought that this was classed as breaking and entering, according to UK law!!

The owner, Albert Amela said the police didn't want to know, when he reported it!
And he has been told he MUST keep the utilities working.

The Latvian has adopted the name Jason Ruddock, which I thought was again illegal for legal reasons like claiming benefits, also says " We know our rights. It's well known it is easy to squat in the UK"

Seems all foreigners know their rights more than we do and we own the land!!!

The government and judiciary system is systematically failing the UK and opening it to all and sundry.

The Commonsense Party UK would put a stop to all of this and argue with the EU that we are doing only what the other EU countries are doing.

Absent Baroness Ashton leaves Britain without a voice

This woman was an unknown.
Now she is known as one of the biggest spongers and spenders in Office in Brussels.
She was chosen due to her inability.She is just another freeloading ineffective knob in the House of Lords!!

Doesn't this explain my comments of some weeks ago that woman should not be in a position of power???
I think I read that she earns about Stg350,000 a year plus any expenses she can top up on.
Her Office costs STG millions a year with all kinds of other parasites running the office.


Article from todays Telegraph Newspaper.

Lady Ashton, Europe's foreign minister, is also commission vice-president and Britain's only full representative on the EU's executive.

On Wednesday, she again missed an entire Brussels meeting, her 17th since January, 2010, because of a trip to the Middle East.

Officials and diplomats have questioned her commitment to the job, which has a salary of more than £230,000 a year, and especially her reluctance to be away from her London-based family at weekends.

David Heathcoat-Amory, a former Tory minister for Europe, said the attendance record was proof that Lady Ashton was not the right person for a senior political role. "She is not up to the job and everyone knows it," he said. "I opposed the creation of an EU foreign minister but I at least thought we would get someone who would bother to turn up."

Lady Ashton has also been absent from 40 per cent of 42 meetings of the commission "college" in the past year, gatherings at which the EU's 27 commissioners – one for each member state – take critical legislative decisions on issues such as European regulation of the City of London.

In an additional 26 per cent of meetings, Lady Ashton left proceedings early, although, her aides insist that, in most cases she was there for the "meat" of the agenda. Her attendance record is the worst of the EU's 27 commissioners.

Her record, described by one senior Italian politician as "amazingly" poor, has led to renewed criticism of her suitability for the senior post and her reluctance to move to Brussels full-time combined with an unwillingness to travel or work abroad at weekends.

Mario Mauro, an Italian centre-Right MEP and a close political ally of Silvio Berlusconi, Italy's prime minister, said it was becoming increasingly clear that the Labour peer, appointed by Gordon Brown, was not suitable for the high-profile job.

"When she was appointed I was not against her - I supported her, with no prejudgment," he said. "I am amazed at this record. It means she does not understand the importance of her role."

There is increasing disquiet among Conservatives over the Labour government's decision to take the EU's foreign affairs post and Lady Ashton's record.

"Our interests would have been far better served had we taken one of the economic portfolios. Important decisions are taken around the commission table and the UK needs someone fighting its corner all the time," said Ashley Fox, the Tory MEP for the South-West.

Her absences have also been blamed on the Lisbon Treaty, which gave her jobs both as the EU's High Representative for foreign affairs and Britain's European commissioner. "She cannot be in two places at once," said her spokesman.

A source close to Lady Ashton said she had asked to be allowed to follow commission meetings by video conferencing, but was refused on the ground that other commissioners might follow her example of poor attendance.

Hugo Brady, senior research fellow at the Centre European Reform, said the commission needed to change its rules to allow Lady Ashton to send a deputy to meetings. "If it doesn't work it will reflect badly on the commission as well," he said.

Clegg wins battle to let terrors suspects go

Again, what on earth is the UK govt thinking about.
The Lib Dem mamby pambies are at it again with the Political correct and 'uman rites' people.

Suspects can preach death, they can build bombs, they can be informed on, but if there is no proof at that time we cannot hold them to question, we cannot put them under surveillance, they can travel anywhere in the Uk, they cannot be tagged.

So basically they can do what they want and blow loads of people up, before the UK can do anything!

At Xmas the Border people were told to let people in and not to question because of staff shortages.

So basically we are a free state for the terrorist!!!

You just can't make this up can you???

Inflation up and Interest rates up in UK!!

VAT up 2.5%
Electric, GAS and Water up 13% + VAT Rise
Local Transport up 13%
Petrol up

Of course Inflation will rise and of course Interest Rates will rise

Banks are willing to lend at above 15%
Overdrafts now cost 17%
Unauthorised overdrafts are 25%
Company loans 19%

It's a banks dream being in a credit crunch!!!
Mortgages will go up to 8.5% soon

MP's give themselves 15% rise, plus a huge expenses scam

Of course Inflation will go beyond expectation and the Bank of England who always wants rates higher will be quick to move again.

What about the 1 million unemployed 18-25 year olds??? This will be announced this week.
Also we will see a 10% of unemployment for the UK this week.

So let's see, so many out of work, salaries are being cut by employers, we can't spend due to tax rises etc, but we will have runaway inflation.
What is that all about???????

The Government is quiet on petrol prices

During the lead up to the election and since the George Osborne has mentioned that petrol price rises should be given a stablisation process i.e. if there is a rise in petrol prices then tax rises will be delayed etc.

Now Oil prices have gone up to USD93 a barrel and the petrol pumps have been hiked, the government has now raised 2 taxes on petrol. So we see NO stabilising effect by the government.

It doesn't matter who is in power they are all liars!!

The other thing that surprises me is that when petrol first went to 85p a litre, there were strikes, but now it's 125p a little there is just newspaper mongering!! I find this very odd especially as it hits the poorer paid people most e.g. drivers who earn STG 350 a week and have families.!!

Also this is the first time in a very long time that petrol prices in UK are higher than Holland !!

Estonia joins the Euro !

Bearing in mind all of the fuss about countries meeting all kinds of criteria (it was mainly to cause UK problems)
Estonia has now adopted the Euro from 1/1/11.

My point is, that Estonia which offers Telecommunications and trades with Scandinavia mainly, has nothing else to offer. It's main trading partners Sweden, Norway and Denmark haven't even adopted the Euro!
Anyway, in 2008 when Estonia was one of the worlds success countries in economic terms, collapsed and has since not been able to pick itself up.

So if this is the case how on earth did they manage to get into the Euro?

Another concrete block about the feet I reckon!

UK Govt doesn't grasp the basics

Scenario 1

Tax comes down on everything - People have more money in their pockets, so they go and spend on consumer goods and their homes so the economy picks up

Scenario 2
Taxes go up on everything - People fearfull of their jobs, will not spend and the economy drops

The raise in petrol of 2 taxes plus the raise in the price of petrol to USD 93 a barrel means people will not buy cars and will cut back on usage of cars, therefore less income for the Government

Tomorrows raise in VAT from 17.5 % to 20% will means that people will spend less.

The worst hit will be the low paid and this will mean more will give up their jobs to go and claim benefits as they are better off.

These are just a few things. The Government has it badly wrong!!!
