I have just had a chance encounter with our illustrious mayor… Of course, I managed to get a picture of him with his head down catching flies, but that’s cricket, I ‘spose.

Further… If I had been quick-witted and bolshy enough, I would have liked to have said a few things… For instance:

“Oi Boris, why don’t you grow a pair and act like a proper conservative (small c)? Here you are in Lewisham, bastion of the 1950′s Caribbean immigrant, those who came to live the British dream and better themselves… And what did they get? The European nightmare!

So please, just think about what it is to be a British conservative, rather than being a good European.”

Yeah… I would have said all that, but I reckon Boris would have walked off to save himself from falling asleep… never mind, that’s what this blog is for!

Each government and its associated PM (particularly since WW2) have had a hand in this and one wonders sometimes whether those conspiracy theories have any traction.

There was the first post WW2 government of Attlee with his own ideas and the implicit support of Liberals and (to a lesser extent) Tory’s… aka the Beveridge consensus… “Something must be done for the poor”…

Of course Attlee’s implementation peppered with lefty Bevanism led to the whole mish-mash in the first place… and all in five glorious years, they wasted the American loans negotiated by the other Bevin and set up the Welfare state.

Then what follow are the Eden/MacMillan years, where it became obvious that not only was British power at an end, but MacMillan was going to “birch” himself and the nation by doing whatever our former colonies demanded in defeat…. There was absolutely no need to give British passports to the citizens of these new “independent” nations.

Then followed the Wislon years with the faux tory “the traitor Heath” in opposition, who was looking to prostrate the nation to Germany and France, which became a reality once Wislon had spent all the money and made America less of a friend than previously… the general political consensus was that as a defeated empire we should help create and join another.

Then followed Thatcher, who made an enemy within… “the white working class” and turned our defence “forces” into “services”.

This led to the disaster that was the treacherous Major/Blair/Brown years, where corporate business was cuddled up to and where it could do whatever it liked to the already alienated “white working class”, destroying or exporting manufacturing, taxing everything and replacing it with more services… public service, financial service and service service… selling hamburgers to each other, because over taxation makes it impossible to compete in manufacturing, despite having some of the best homegrown ideas.

And here we are, with a police “service” and an alienated common people infused with foreign cultures, in particular the Jamaican street culture and its patois being something that the yoof aspire to.

The response needs to be the triumph of the people over the government, these people need to demand their misspent money back… We need to rely on ourselves alone, through free trade and exchange of the best ideas.

The welfare state needs to be examined and re-imagined as the farewell state, the white working classes need to realise that there is no such thing as a free lunch… Because, in exchange for it, we get a culture of dependence, which inevitably leads to a police state.

We need to get back all of the natural benefits that accrue from being an island nation, self reliance, independence and pride in our difference, our language and our white working classes that did so much to defend the British way, right up until our government betrayed it.

Some say that we need a “Bill Bratton”, I reckon we need more than that, we need a “Ron Paul”. We need a politician who will dare to concentrate on government’s core competence of defence of the realm from without and from within.

I have been a bit quiet for the last week… I have been busy messing my computer up, and I have just come to a decision.

I am going to re-install the old OS to my computer, it used to run on something called OSX 10.6 aka “Snow Leopard”, but I made a rash decision and “upgraded” to OSX 10.7 aka “Lion”…

I have been using computers professionally since 1974, so it is not as though I am new to this game, indeed I bought my first Apple computer because Microsoft introduced “Vista”… Until very recently, I was very happy with my choice, but I now reckon that Apple have made the same mistake that MS made with Vista.

The biggest error, is the idea, that changes should be effected just for the sake of them, even if they do try to demonstrate how innovative these “new ways” are!

Now, I suspect that if anyone has read any of my entries or my comments elsewhere during the last eight years, they would know that I support the UKIP, and in particular the Nigel Farage tendency…

So they might be surprised to learn that should the treacherous Cameron resign (or be pushed), that in my considered view (I gave this at least 4 seconds) the most apt caretaker PM would be our “Bozza”…

no…   NO….

 yes… that’s the bugger.

He is a genuine Tory, he seems to be willing to learn… As an example, he has morphed from being rabidly pro-EU before his ascent to the Mayoral job, to being concerned enough about the implications of some of their recent madness to change his tune.

It is refreshing to witness a leading member of the “bubble” to be aware of what is going on outside of that environment, and his handling (so-far) of the Murdoch non-crisis, navel gazing bolleaux that is currently rampant seems to be a sight more competent than any of the rest of the LibLabCONtingent.
