In the run up to the General Election I registered with a number of sites seeking to make life difficult for the New Labour Police State Stalinists and their ever-growing pervasive surveillance and unaccountable practices such as the expenses debacle exposed by Michael Barnbrook.

One of the more interesting ones was POWER 2010 an outfit who rolled out a number of mass mail campaigns "headed" by fairly prominent left wingers whingeing at the way Parliament was unaccountable and so were the parliamentarians in it.

I recall the train started to derail however a month or two before the day when "Despatches" I think it was revealed the degree to which fundamentalist islam was at work corrupting the electoral process, and highlighing the "Islamic Forum For Europe". I visited the site of this fascinatingly named organisation, and was less than impressed to find they were proudly displaying on their website the fact that they were a "friend of", and apparently supporting, Power2010.

As a subscriber to the Power2010 website and an enthusaistic participant in some of their campaigns I felt it only right to bring my concerns at Power2010's interaction with an extremist islamic organisation to the attention of the POWER2010 organisers, but my emails to them sent in my capacity as the British National Party General Election Candidate for the Constituency of Islwyn met with no reply.

Today I have received an email from the organisation advising me that they are seeking to merge with the "Unlock Democracy" organisation. This sounds all well and good until you dig a little deeper and realise what "Unlock Democracy" stand for.

Their proudest achievements they say are the results of their lobbying for the extension of the "devolved powers" now tearing this united kindgom apart in Edinburgh and Cardiff.

And they are entusiastically preparing their campaign for a YES vote on Clegg's electoral reform.

So far from being an organisation interested in truly unlocking democracy they are even now actively plotting ways to pull the wool over the eyes of the electorate, hoping to sell them on Gordon Brown's lies that the AV system he, Brown, wished to see brought in, is a fairer way to elect our politicians.

This is the system the Electoral Commission say themselves is actually less proportional than our existing system, stealing as it does the votes of the loser and handing them to the winner to artificially inflate their popularity. The chief advantage of the AV system is, as I have said, the fact that it disadvantages parties with popular support of the level we are now enjoying, who, under the d'Hondt system used to elect The European Parliament and one third of the the Welsh Assembly could be assured of electoral success in the coming years.

So, there we have it. The organisation who were proud to accept the assistance and support of extreme islamists in this country in order to expose corrupt practice in our MP's is now actively plotting with another organisation dedicated to bringing in a parliamentary system designed specifically to prevent electoral success for the Britiah National Party.

Bear that in mind when these so called lovers of democracy and all it stands for lobby for your support.

Four Criminals Still Trying to Evade Seven years In Stir
Picture by URL to the BBC Site your Licence is Paying For

I bloody give up. I really do.

While the fools who voted for the Brokeback Coalition partners (and  come on ladies and gents you can't tell me that performance in the Number Ten Rose Gargen was NOT a Civil Partnership Ceremony) find out the hard way just how much shit Gordon Brown Left Us In, the four fill yer boots pirates of the last parliament and its upper house are still using OUR money in their attempt to evade justice

First they filled their boots in ways the Daily Telegraph made perfectly obvious would put you and me behind bars if we did it. Then they outrageously try to make out they are above the law because "Parliamentary Privilege" means they need not answer the charges of theft and false accounting brought against them as ordinary mortals like you and I would have to.

And when they lost that case, they appealed.

And now they have lost the appeal.

So, when they are tried and found guilty, will their callous use of more public money to attempt to set themselves above the law count AGAINST them and ENSURE that if they are convicted they serve EVERY DAY of the MAXIMUM seven year sentence the crimes of which they are charged carry ? You know, like the reverse of how 'fessing up and contrition generally reduces the sentence.

Well they bloody would if I were Justice Minister. Indeed if I had my way this is how it would be done....

Hi. John of Gwent here, signing on to make sure people realise this one's mine and not Green Arrows, because I think this might be another post in the "someone has to say it, it might as well be me" mould.

So, what a day today is. What a fine day it is to be ringing the United States President and asking if he would like to buy a copy of Norton Internet Security !

I think it is fair to say we're not exactly friends with "wikileaks" - not after the way it was used to make Diane Abbott's day by (in her words) letting everyone know where the fascists live. It did that all right Diane, but none of them were the addresses on those lists, the real fascists are all at SW1A 0AA and you know it.

But this morning I woke up to wonder if the wikileaks site had finally bitten off more than it could chew.

For it seems to have put into the public eye the details of thousands and thousands of military reports on operations in Blair and Bush's Other Military Belligerence On Top Of Iraq.

It seems Obama is uncomfortable with the revelation that things have not entirely gone the way his spin doctors want you to believe.

So let's deal with that first shall we. Guess what guys it's a war FFS not a bloody game of baseball or that silly spectacle those across the pond call football

War is not the nice clean 9 to 5 job Blair Brown Bush and a dozen blokes in uniform paid to sanitise the truth for the public inboth our countries want you to believe.

War is death, served up a hundred different ways and all of them involving bits of your insides getting shredded.

War is stench, filth, disease and destruction. on a biblical scale.

And inevitably war means putting in the ground a number of people who had no reason to expect to be going there as soon as they did.

I tell people I've seen quite enough examples of people shuffling off this existence in a violent, traumatic, aginising way already for a lifetime thank you and it's true I have, but I've never seen anything like the average squaddie coming back from one of those tours gets to witness.

Now *I* know that, *THEY* know that but how many others know it given that all our politicians who sent them out there to experience it are doing their bloody best 24/7/365 to make it look like we've packed them off to a bloody holiday camp. Jane Austen's novels are set slap bang in the middle of the Napoleonic War yet who would know, and this is not because she ignored it, far from it her characters were often in contact with military men, but the fact is that in her time just as now, apart from those doing the killing and the dying on both sides NO ONE in "polite society" has the faintest idea what is going on.

I think that might be about to change, courtesy of god knows how many thousand reports, videos, you name it.

I really am in two minds about this. To have someone release information such as this flies in the face of everything I have known, everything I have been instructed to do, for thirty years. It is the sort of thing we shoot people for. But then again the belief that we in the west can engage in nice safe clean sanitary war get the job done and get out is perhaps the biggest and most outrageously shocking lie our politicians could have foisted upon us.

Or maybe not. Maybe the most outrageous lie they can foist upon us is the one that the blame and compensation game operates in war just as if it were the case that civilian casualties in a missile strike equate to victims of a road crash.

I don't know what to make of these wikileaks, I think it would take me the best part of a month to read through them and understand what they mean, and that in itself is a problem because no-one is going to give any sort of IMPARTIAL summary of these documents are they.

Mind you, I will say this.

By Sixteen Hundred Hours Zulu Obama will have found a way to blame British Petroleum CEO Tony Hayward for the leak of the documents.

By Eighteen Hundred Hours Zulu Gitmo will have another resident, a Mr Bradley Manning.

And by next wednesday the BNP need never worry about wikileaks releasing another membership list ever again. For by that time Obama will have put a nuclear-tipped cruise missile through their front door and had his PR people spin it as an unbelieveably unfortunate volcanic event caused by global warming.

I wonder what Steve Jobs thinks of Indian IT Outsourcing Today. For if you click the link above you will read how the Indian Government have launched what is being referred to as the Indian I-Pad.Theirs has no hard drive, it runs off a solid state card like the SD cards in mobile phones. It can run off solar power (although god knows how you read the screen in the noon day delhi sun) and it seems to do anything the I-Pad can.

Or so they hype says.

But the reason Mr Jobs will soon be Mr Job-Less ?

Well unlike the I-Pad which my techno-mad work colleage and Cardiff Councillor just HAD to have at a cost of the best part of seven hundred quid with all the accessories, this little number costs THIRTY FIVE DOLLARS.

Yes that's right. A Touch Screen Portable for less than the cost of a Vindaloo with the Poppadoms and Chutney and a couple of Cobra Beers to wash it down.

I'll have five. That'll last me till the end of the week if Indian Build Quality in Software is anything to go by.

So, the police officer from the Tactical Support Group who was filmed assaulting Ian Tomlinson is to get off scot free.
