The Inquest Jury into the police shooting
of Mark Duggan has finally given its verdict that he was killed lawfully. Oh
thank heavens! It means that most Daily Mail, Express and Sun readers can now
rest safely in their beds all happy and contented. The entire police and Independent
Police Complaints Commission investigation into his shooting and the Inquest
itself has brought into public view some remarkable facts. Firstly that the
evidence given by various police present at the incident was remarkably similar
with statements written up at the time made by the officers sitting together in
a single room without anyone else present. These were contradicted by a single
independent eye witness who viewed the incident from a 9th floor
flat across the road at short distance whose statement told an entirely
different story altogether. More disturbingly perhaps was the conduct of the
Independent Police Complaints Commission in this matter. It has long been known
that the supposed independence of this body has become seriously compromised in
respect of its impartiality with regard to investigation of complaints about
police conduct. Indeed to call it ‘independent’ in any way has become something
of a joke and now we learn that the senior investigating officer of this body
in respect to the shooting of Mark Duggan is himself a former policeman!
It is a fact that soon after the shooting,
this supposedly independent body publically put out the false and incendiary
suggestion that Mark Duggan had himself fired a gun at police officers. Furthermore
they failed to inform his family for a considerable length of time after his
death then somehow failed for no known reason to have any member of their
organisation present in the room when the police wrote up their statements.
Given these well-known facts it is only the readers of the above mentioned
newspapers that can go on believing in the impartiality of this body which
means in fact that the public at large has absolutely no protection whatsoever
from the conduct of the police. Equally important, where it comes to the matter
of police evidence, an English jury are far more likely to believe what the
police say than anyone else despite the extraordinary volume in recent years of
police misconduct. This is particularly so in the case of a considerable
variety of ethnic minority or other campaigning groups. Anyone in these groups
is undoubtedly disadvantaged in respect of the conduct of the British police.
Let’s not mince words. Given recent so
called justified killings by armed police, it is today extremely dangerous for
any member of the public to walk around the streets carrying anything in a
carrier bag resembling a small piece of wood or a chair leg and similarly dangerous
for anyone to hold a mobile phone in their hand. This is because in recent
years the police have clearly adopted a shoot to kill policy in the case of
people they believe to be carrying weapons, instructing their armed officers to
act accordingly in the full belief they have immunity to do so. In the case of
the Mark Duggan killing this assumption has turned out to be correct.
So with assessment often only too brief, sometimes
even instant, by armed police who are often poorly educated, the life of just
about each and every member of the public is at genuine risk, a fact not at all
helped by our knowledge that the Independent Police Complaints Commission is
now generally thought to be a police front, employing in its ranks former
police officers to carry out its investigations! In short, the general public
have absolutely no protection whatsoever from the police who with the Mark
Duggan verdict will now feel they have carte blanche to behave in any manner
they like. It is only the readers of the
three cited news-rags who will go on believing that they live in a free country
when everyone else, perhaps, might take the view, if they haven’t done it
already, that they live in a police state. Because that’s what a police state
actually means. Somewhere the police can do anything they like to anyone and
get away with it. Have their extreme actions regarded as lawful. In Europe it
was recently Jews, trade unionists and socialists along with members of other ethnic
and religious minorities. In Britain today it’s ethnic and social minorities. Soon
it’ll be YOU and it all starts with the police. Police attacks against
students… police attacks against workers and trades unionists on strike… police
attacks on members of ethnic minorities;
individually or in groups.
REMEMBER… THAT’S HOW IT STARTS THAT’S WHERE IT BEGINS
THE GOVERNMENT LOVES HARDWORKING PEOPLE!
Yes you’ve heard David Cameron say it and George
Osborne too! And Nick Clegg and Vince Cable! Oh how wonderful. They all love hardworking people.
That means people who work hard… not anyone
on benefits or working AND collecting benefits. Sorry, all those people out of
work and on benefits. Nobody loves you! And even if you worked hard for ten,
twenty or thirty years and paid your National Insurance Contributions
throughout, in other words paid for your unemployment benefit, it still doesn’t
matter. You’re getting benefits so nobody loves you!
Let’s take a closer look at these good folk
who love hardworking people. Firstly
it is only fair to ask who these hardworking
people are? Are they people who’ve worked hard all their lives, been frugal
and saved up money for their retirement? Sounds like they’re righteous to me!
The kind of people that David Cameron loves. Surely! Well in that case why are
these good hardworking people who’ve
saved up their money getting sweet fuck all interest on their savings these days,
Mr Cameron? Why are most only getting 1% or less on the money they’ve saved,
far below the rate of inflation, when it’s being loaned out by the building
societies and banks they’ve put it into at a rate of 3-4% on mortgages? As you
well know Mr Cameron, it was the financial institutions who caused the current
economic crisis so why are you allowing them to rip of your beloved hardworking people all over again with
these rotten interest rates? Have you no respect for those hardworking people you say you love who’ve carefully saved money
all their lives for their retirement in order that those other friends of
yours, the lazy and incompetent financial institutions can rip them off in the
way they’re doing right now?
WHY ARE YOU ALLOWING ALL THOSE GOOD HARDWORKING PEOPLE YOU SAY YOU LOVE
TO BE CHEATED IN THIS WAY WITH ROTTEN INTEREST RATES?
Okay, maybe the good hardworking people that you’re talking about are young or
middle aged. Well in that case what on earth is the point of these people
saving money if all they’re getting in return is virtually nothing … unless of
course the truth is that you simply want them to spend everything they earn on
mortgages to create another artificial
price rise bubble in the housing sector so that everyone feels good all
over again till the bubble bursts the way it did during the time of the
Thatcher Dictatorship, or else spend it on
cheap crap goods out of China!
I’m talking about those good hardworking people you say you love
David Cameron and George Osborne SO LISTEN UP. Those good YOUNG hardworking
people of yours… are they all agency workers or kids on minimum wage? Are they
part-timers or kids on work experience FORCED TO WORK FOR NOTHING OR ELSE BE
DENIED BENEFITS? Are these the young people to which you refer WHO WORK HARD FOR
VIRTUALLY NOTHING IN YOUR WRETCHED CHEAP LABOR ECONOMY?
Oh, but that’s only one side of it all
isn’t it? Let’s look at the other. At those good hardworking people in the
Inland Revenue who work very hard indeed trying to reduce the tax liability of
multinational corporations by giving them the best possible private advice
WHICH SAVES THEM BILLIONS OF POUNDS EVERY YEAR AND TAKES IT AWAY FROM THE
BRITISH ECONOMY AND YOUNG BRITISH PEOPLE. But then many of these
corporations are registered overseas in Ireland and so contribute little to
nothing to the British economy or the welfare of its citizens anyway. But then
saving these multinationals any contribution they might make as taxpayers is
considered far more important than those good
hardworking British people that David Cameron and George Osborne, Nick
Clegg and Vince Cable say that they love.
Right. So let’s have the truth! The good hardworking people rhetoric that
comes out of the mouths of these leading Coalition politicians is quite frankly
just so much shit. It’s fodder for those who read the Daily Mail and the Sun
who not only hate young people but hate just about everyone, EXCEPT OF COURSE
THE POLICE, those whose business it is to keep order. Soon the experience of a
much tighter kind of control and order will appear in our lives!
The good
hardworking people rhetoric crap is plainly symbolic. A counterpoint to
young people without work. To anyone who complains. To anyone who protests
about what is happening in our society. The unemployed are simply LAZY, the
complainers are simply troublemakers and the protesters are commies or
anarchists! They should be made to do useful community work or locked up in
detention centres or correction facilities for re-educating. Naturally by the
police!
Soon, very soon, there will either be good hardworking people or the
deliberate idle. Good hardworking people get to pay tax, eat junk food, get
fat, go to watch Premier Football, read the Sun, Express or Daily Mail, watch
East Enders and get to live in Essex. The unemployed lazy in the other hand get
to eat chips, feel depressed, experience hopelessness and violence and get to
be even fatter. The middle class on the other hand will only get to look on and
wonder… About when it will be their turn to be loved or unloved!
THE RETURN OF IRANIAN JACK
So, Jack Straw has returned from yet
another trip to his beloved Iran! This time pleading for British and American
tolerance and patience to the supposedly softer more liberal current regime!
Now if there was ever any major Western politician who appeared more friendly
towards the fundamentalist Islamic State of Iran then it has been Jack Straw,
or Ayatollah Straw as most Iranian dissidents called him due to his frequent
visits as British Foreign Secretary to Iran in the aftermath of the 9/11 attack
on New York.
As Foreign Secretary from 2001-2006 he was
always chummy with Iranian diplomats and political figures appointed by the
vociferously anti-Semite President of Iran, Holocaust Denier, Ahmed Amadinajad who
piloted Iran’s nuclear weapons program, endlessly promising to destroy the
Jewish State. Nonetheless, despite its condemnation by the United States as the
world’s leading sponsor of international terrorism, Ayatollah Straw has
consistently offered it verbal support.
In 2006 he was shifted from his post as
Foreign Secretary by Tony Blair and reshuffled to Leader of the House of
Commons. In connection with this Wikipedia has commented , “It is believed that
Straw’s public opposition to potential military actions in Iran during his
tenure of Foreign Secretary was one of the main reasons for his demotion.”
Indeed, he seems to have had a peculiarly strange relationship with this hard
line fundamentalist anti-Israel, anti-Semitic Islamic state, being technically
a Jew himself through his mother, yet nonetheless declaring himself as a
Christian. However, why he should have adopted such a friendly disposition to
the major international enemy of Judaism and Israel is difficult to fathom
though in 2013 he was accused by an Israeli politician of making anti-Semitic
remarks at an international conference to the effect that it was the monetary
wealth of American Jews that promoted the selection of Israel-friendly
politicians to the American Congress. Something he has always denied.
However it is a fact that his time as Home
Secretary in Tony Blair’s Labour Government between 1997-2001 was marked by the
appearance of fundamentalist Islamic preachers delivering sermons outside
mosques, the content of which were often grossly anti-Semitic and which the
British police were for reasons best known to themselves unable to stop. This
period too also witnessed the growth of openly racist anti-Semitic literature
being openly sold on the streets of London and elsewhere.
Altogether, what Jack Straw is politically,
despite his lifelong service to the Labour Party is a whole mixture of things, his
career being marked by a number of different bees in his bonnet which have come
and gone with the times. One however has flourished throughout and that has
been his friendly disposition towards a viciously anti-Semitic political regime
whose Holocaust Denial made no impression on his choice of political friends. Why
is that one wonders? Why too has he never publically condemned the threats by
Islamic Iran to destroy the Jewish State of Israel.
The British Labour Party has always had a
mighty peculiar and mixed relationship with British Jews. Most Jewish
immigrants to Britain have given it their tireless emotional and practical
support and there have been not a few Jewish MP’s and Party
activists. The current Leader of the Labour Party in Parliament is a Jew. Even
so, one of the most notorious anti-Semites in modern British politics was a
former leader of the Transport and General Workers Union, Ernest Bevan, and
there have been many others. It is also the case that one of the forefathers of
the Labour Party itself, Henry Hyndman, expressed anti-Semitic views.
But then Labour Party politicians have
always been known to express strange and peculiar views as well as being
strange and peculiar people, no more or less a percentage of the rest of the British
population! So if Jack Straw wants to be Iran friendly let him be so. It
doesn’t make him an anti-Semite, just another peculiar opportunist political
dickhead who seemed to be politically very important, or thought he was, for a
short space of time before disappearing up his own arse. Someone who was more
than red hot to flush his own vestige of Judaism down the toilet best and fast
as he could rather like that other political creep of recent times, Catholic
convert Nigel Lawson. The two were political contemporaries and both thought they
were so terribly important and that was
only natural you see, because they were politicians and arrogant enough to
think they could make a real difference to people’s lives when they actually
couldn’t. Only mess them up far more than they already were by sticking their
noses into history.
Ayatollah
Straw will always be known with that name and historically no friend at all in
the great Jewish story. However, I shall always think of him as Iranian Jack!
