Why a clean slate is needed

In my preceding post I posed the question we Coalition will last because of the wish of two disparate political parties to rescue the economy of our country, or whether it will last because the top echelon of those two disparate parties wish to retain their individual positions of privilege and power.

Where people wish to retain positions of privilege and power, be that the public or private sector, if pushed into the proverbial corner they will lie to save their careers. An example of this fact has been illustrated by Richard North, EU Referendum, (do follow the links) in which he shows that Cameron has in effect misled the House of Commons.

That the questioner, nor any other MP (God forbid MilibandE, who doesn't appear to know what day of the week it is) was not immediately hitting the 'airways' asking the question posed in Richard North's headline to his post, namely "Whose this "We", Cameron", leads one to finally believe that they are indeed "all in it together" - to coin a phrase. The marked lack of so-called 'Eurosceptics' so doing, was telling - what? Where was Cash, Carswell, Heaton-Harris, Bone, Jenkin (to name but a few) - and more importantly, although not an MP, where was that 'arch-antiEUer' Daniel Hannan, from whom so far we have not heard one peep?

The lack of rebuttal by MPs (and MEPs) can only be due to:

(a) they have no idea of what membership of the EU entails;

(b) they have no wish to 'rock the boat' as they are hoping for advancement in their careers', or:

(c) they are 'brain-dead' idiots.

Personally, I suspect the latter as that seems to be the prime qualification for entry into our political system.

Apologies for 'banging-on' about it, but does this not illustrate why our present system of democracy must, repeat must, be changed/

Just saying...............

Who's this "we" Cameron?

At PMQs today, Mr Iain McKenzie (Inverclyde) (Lab) asked the man masquerading as our prime minister, the following question:

With the tragic accident involving the cruise ship Costa Concordia and the 50-plus liners of the same size or bigger that will visit Greenock dock on the Clyde in the coming months and year ahead, does the Prime Minister still think that it was the correct decision to close the Clyde coastguard station?

David Cameron gave him this answer

First, the case in Italy is clearly a tragic one, and our hearts should go out to the people who have lost loved-ones - people from countries right across the world. We need to wait and see what the exact cause of the accident was before we jump to conclusions about any changes to regulations or other things. However,if changes need to be made, including on the issue that the hon. Gentleman raises, of course we will make them.

One might think he was talking about the administration he leads, but considering ship safety is an exclusive EU competence, what does he actually mean by "we"?

Why is The Boy still pretending to have powers that have long since been given to Brussels? Is he ashamed to admit how much has been surrendered, or is it that he just doesn't know?
