Daily Mail In Gypsy Support Shocker!

06Jul09

I can’t believe that I missed this story. It seems the Hate Mail managed to shoot itself in the foot by pissing off the Twitterati (if it’s not already a word then it is now!). It seems that to mark the end of Refugee week the Hate Mail, from hereon in to be known as the Daily Fail, placed a poll on it’s website asking “should the NHS allow Gypsies to jump the queue?” in relation to an article by that bastion of human decency.. sorry I mean utter cunt rag, Richard Littlejohn. In his article he espouses the usual racist bile that we have come to expect from the fetid little man yet with which he still manages to shock us.

Anyhoo. In relation to this rather disgusting, and ever so slightly leading, poll question the Twitterati swung into action and before long the poll was showing that over 90% of the Daily Fail’s readership supported gypsies getting special treatment from the NHS. This show of decency from its readership led to the Fail removing the poll from its website and replacing it with one asking “Should Commons Speaker Michael Martin resign?”. Does anyone want to tell them he resigned a month ago!

I know this is already a week old but I really wanted to add my wee voice to the hordes already laughing their arses off at the Daily Fail – FAIL!

Armed Forces Day

Yesterday, 27/06/09, marked the first in a worrying new state organised annual public festival. Armed Forces Day is being touted as a day to ‘celebrate’ the nations armed forces and, according to their website, “show our support for the men and women who make up the Armed Forces community: from currently serving troops to Service families, and from veterans to recruits.”

Math Problem

11Feb09

You know, I was never that good at math back in school. Is there any chance any one could talk me through this equation?

Global Priority                                 $U.S. Billions
Cosmetics in the United States                    8
Ice cream in Europe                                     11
Perfumes in Europe and the United States 12
Pet foods in Europe and the United States 17
Business entertainment in Japan                 35
Cigarettes in Europe                                    50
Alcoholic drinks in Europe                         105
Narcotics drugs in the world                     400
Military spending in the world                  780

And compare that to what was estimated as additional costs to achieve universal access to basic social services in all developing countries:Global Priority                        $U.S. Billions
Basic education for all                                  6
Water and sanitation for all                          9
Reproductive health for all women             12
Basic health and nutrition                           13

Hubble Yet Again

06Feb09

Why don’t we put the amount of energy into projects like Hubble that we do into warfare? Oh yeah, capitalism and class society that’s it!
Science geeks of the world unite! If we are to have free enquiry tomorrow we must make revolution today!
