Politics / Re: Mr. Bates versus the Post Office
« on: January 12, 2024, 12:38:52 PM »
All of a sudden everybody is getting wound up about this scandal, i have been following this since 2011 and it was clear then that the post office was lying and covering up, the same as any other of our institutions.
If you are confronted with any of our institutions you need to ask one question, and the question is not is this institution corrupt, rather it is how corrupt is this institution, i can give you cast iron examples of corruption by the Police, Child Protection Services, the CPS, the NHS, Social Services, and the Borough Council and the lies told by certain Councillors including lying to our local MP and these examples are just the tip of the iceberg.
Why does it take a TV drama before people in power will take notice, there should be questions about that as well

i know this is a bit late and yes the Christmas lights in town center are quite good, lest we forget it is not that many years ago the only Christmas lights in Chesterfield was the star on top of the Dents Chemist block and a Christmas tree.

Chesterfield Discussion / karen at the butchers.
« on: October 26, 2023, 11:52:21 AM »
For those of you who do not know what a Karen is, it is an entitled person who thinks they can order other people around and they come in varying degrees of Karenicity from just barking orders to screaming and criminal damage (type wild karens into YouTube) and you will see what i mean.
Today i went into the butchers in the market hall (the one opposite Elliot's) where they sell individually portioned pieces of pie from a metal tray, so i  politely asked for a piece of steak pie from the lady who was serving and she proceeded to give me a corner piece and i politely requested a piece with only one edge of pastry the response i received was and i quote "you don't get to get to pick and chose that will leave me with only two corner pieces" unquote, whaaaat  can i point out Karen that pick and chose is exactly what i get to do when i am spending MY money, it is not for you karen to decide what i spend my money on it is up to me, and i did offer to give the piece of pie back as it seemed to mean so much to her (maybe she was saving it for her husbands tea) over the last 30-40 years customer service has come a long way however some people still seem to be in the wrong trade.

Politics / Re: Farage says Brexit is a failure.
« on: June 22, 2023, 05:38:06 PM »
Farage thinks Trumps great...........I rest my case.
even that idiot Farage after all his lies about how Brexit will be great for the UK can be right once in a while, and disappointingly when he says Brexit is a failure for once the evidence has shown him to be correct.

Politics / Farage says Brexit is a failure.

Farage says Brexit is a failure, and of course he has blamed everyone from the government to civil servants, the truth is leaving the EU was always going to cause the country damage as leaving the biggest economic area in the world was not only an act of self harm it was also entirely stupid.
The people who voted to leave have now begun to realise they have been lied to which is reflected in the polls which has people who think Brexit was a success at 33% and people who think it was a failure at 54% yet still our politicians continue to claim that leaving the EU is the will of the people when clearly the people have realised it was a massive mistake.

Politics / Boris did he fall or was he pushed?
« on: June 10, 2023, 01:24:48 PM »
Boris has resigned his Parliamentary seat or so it seems, however he has already seen the report from the standars commitee, so it would seem the answer to the title of this post is both, he fell of his own violition just before he was pushed.
His resignation containes the usual mix of obfuscation and concpiracy theories worthy of Trump himself, the real pity is has taken this long to see Borises true colours and now after him dragging us out of the EU to further his own ambitions the people of this country now realise that leaving the EU is not the panacea it was claimed to be and as a result our economy will continue to suffer for years to come.

i find the idea of the return of Boris to be a massive backwards step, if this happens the 2.5% of credibility the Tory has left will be wiped out completely.

Politics / Liz Truss resigns
« on: October 20, 2022, 02:16:58 PM »
Liz Truss resignation was inevitable the pity is she was allowed to inflict imense damage on the economy before her political demise and already there is talk that benefit recipients and the poor in general are being lined up to pay for it, this after twelve years of austerity where benefits were slashed by thousands of pounds in real terms and the NHS and other sevices people rely on were starved of investment, the kindest thing that could be said about twelve years of Tory misrule. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bBIo42ws57s

Politics / kwasi kwarteng sacked
« on: October 14, 2022, 12:59:37 PM »
kwasi kwarteng sacked What?, and he was doing so well, thats if you discount trashing the pound, increasing motgages, crashing the gilt markets and increasing inflation, and all this time he and Liz Tuss were being repeatedly warned that this would happen by the then Chancellor Rishi Sunak.
And all of this debacle was voted for by a handfull of delusional and possibly dementia riddled geriatrics who just happen to be demented enough to be members of the Tory party.

my foster dad always told me i have to vote as good people faught and died to get me the right to vote, i also think it should be compulsary to vote with one caveat, there should be a provision on the voting forms to abstain as we may not beleive any of the parties are any good i suspect that voters will send the parties a harsh message.

Politics / Tory handouts for the rich while penalising the poor.
« on: September 24, 2022, 01:54:03 PM »
So there we have it the Tories are giving huge handouts for the richest 10% while at the same time part time workers with universal credit top up to face even more draconian sanctions, as an example a banker on an income of 3 million pound a year including bonuses will get one hundred and sixty five thousand pound a year extra in his pay packet and a single parent who works part time because they have to look after the children are to face the extra universal credit pitance they get being cut, clearly a transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich (Robin Hood in reverse) these Tories have no empathy and no shame.

As if to prove my point about negative economic affects, the pound has crashed to its lowest level in the last 37 years which will cause imports to cost more on the world markets. this will also cause an increase in the cost of gas on world markets which will filter back to everyone but at least one section of the population will be able to aford it and that is the rich.

Politics / tax cuts for the rich
« on: September 23, 2022, 02:13:05 PM »
So here we go again the last time a Tory government gave away such a huge amount of borrowed money was in the early 70s the results where catastrophic which caused inflation to top 25% and ultimately led to the crash of the early 80s precided over by Thatchers Government and we all know what that meant for the majority of the poorer people in this country.
The magority of the borrowed money will end up in the pockets of the richest 10% and when it inevitably all comes crashing down who will have to pay for it, this is an easy one the poor.
This goverment has been in power for tweve years and during that time to justify the austerity measures (which penalised the poor) caused by the banking crash we were bombarded whith tories telling us we cannot borrow our way out of problems, we have to live within our means, that fiscal Conservativism was the only way to stimulate the economy, and now we have this massive give away including letting bankers bonuses get out of control again, yes we will have a few years a mini boom but then it will be back cap in hand to the IMF for a bail out and another dacade at least for the country to pay for this folly, these Tories have wasted twelve long years telling us one medicine was good for us and now they want to change the prescription, this is a recipe for disaster and the only comfort i can take from this is i am now nearly seventy and by the time this proflagacy has to be paid for i shall most likely to be dead, i do not envy todays young people as they are going to be paying for this long after i have gone.
