Labour drug chief David Nutt sacked for speaking the truth (By Postman Prat, Alan Johnson, of all people)
2005 England and Wales report of drug related deaths:
Tobacco 86,500
Alcohol 6,627
Heroin 842
PARACETAMOL 446 (Any fucker who thinks this is a safe drug knows fuck all. And believe me, I speak from experience on this one)
All anti-depressants 401
Methadone 223
Cocaine (including crack) 176
Amphetamine 103
MDMA/Ecstasy 58
ASPIRIN 14
Cannabis 0
No FUCKING individual in HUMAN FUCKING HISTORY has died directly from cannabis. Why? It's NOT TOXIC ENOUGH. GET IT?
And don't give me any of this fucking crap about skunk; yes, it's STRONGER, in which case, TAKE FUCKING LESS, like you do with whiskey. Oh, wait, yes, that's right, we're unable to do that, because Cannabis growth isn't regulated, and as such, users are more prone to overdoses, down to its illegal nature. Forgot about that one.
Also, the tobacco element; simple - smoke cannabis with herbal cigarettes. Problem. Fucking. Solved. There'd be no tobacco involved, so no tar production, and all the shit that comes with tobacco intake.
People can have panic attacks from the use, which is true, and, again, with legality of cannabis, but coming with strict regulation of its usage, such problems could be far easier to monitor. Like any fucking drug in the world, there will be SOME nasty side effects for SOME people.
Ugh, I hate this debate so much, and the lies and deception spread around it. Did anyone see that odious scumbag, Jacqui Smith, the hypocrite of the year, on Question Time? Horrible TV. I was depressed at her weasel performance, and her defending her indefensible comments on her drug policy.
I make no secret of the fact that I think The War On Drugs, is the worst piece of existing policy in this country. Yes, even worse than The War On Terrorism, solely because the War On Terror also includes elements with the drug war in it.
The history of cannabis has always been a conveniently ignored one, because before the war on drugs, created by the most corrupt president in US history, to be then imported into this country, most dope-smokers weren't anti-establishment hippies, and to say so, is entirely duplicitous. The vast majority of cannabis smokers were women who used cannabis to relieve period pains. FACT. (Edit: Degaffed @_@)
Cannabis has been proven to help act as a pain reliever for various tumours, not to mention actually downsizing brain tumours, and is also an aid to bipolar disorder. Oh. Wait. Not only is cannabis a classified drug, but not even the NHS are allowed to issue cannabis as a medicine, despite NHS centres in the UK being allowed to prescribe heroin. Fuck, I hate using Littlejohnian phrases, but you actually couldn't make this shit up.
Oh, here's another fun fact about cannabis; do you know, in the country where the drug war originated, which is the United States, eight individuals there actually get cannabis provided to them by the federal government, for medical reasons?
But, as wisely pointed out by an audience member on Question Time, the only reason the politicians won't do anything with alcohol and tobacco, is because they get revenue from it.
Alan "Postman Prat" Johnson is such a fucktard. I hate his smarmy fucking face, his history (Aka, the fucker that helped introduced tuition fees), and everything about him, but beyond all others, how he's hailed as "decent" because of his "background as a postie". What shallow shit that is. Hitler was an ex-serviceman, and from humblestock, as was Thatcher; oh, yeah, they're fucking great, aren't they? Ugh. It's times like this when I think we need a new Guy Fawkes ;)

Want To Fend Off A "Foreign Invasion"? Start With Rupert Murdoch
I'm sure this all flies above the empty head of the average Sun reader and fanatic, but the real foreign invasion surely isn't from the ordinary immigrant, trying to "better themselves" (See! See! I'm using their lingo!), but from Rupert Murdoch, who is that devoid of morality, that he pushes and shoves into any country's political affairs that he pleases, has the politicians surrounding him like a moat, to be then begging and pleading for Murdoch's support. (See: whoring)
I don't like Barack Obama whatsoever, for various reasons, but one thing is for sure: he managed to overcome and defeat the Murdoch Empire, set against him, who discredited him from the very start, which is admirable in some respect.
I don't like what the Sun has done to New Labour at all; despite me hating New Labour from the very beginning (Ho ho, unlike the Sun), this was clearly planned way before Gordon Brown's speech at the Labour conference. Way before all of this, Cameron was getting closer and closer to Murdoch, meeting up with him, and...well, I imagine all the rest of it, as articulated extremely well in the book I've just bought, called "Flat Earth News".
Of course, I agree with the concept of a Free Press, but surely, with such a huge sphere of influence it has (Aka, the world), its new modus operandi is: Make news to make money. Ad infinitum.
Whilst I'm not hoping for a New Labour victory in the next election, I'm afraid to say that the Tories may win, with increased electorial support, thanks to Murdoch and The Scum.
"Foreign Invasion" indeed.

Unite The Useless Strikes Again
I know I'm making too much commentary, but just watching Newsnight before, yet another turd from Unite is having a wankfest over Brown, "going back to old Labour".
Clause IV is practically the crux of Old Labour; did Brown, or any other New Labour hack, for that matter, say they were going to reintroduce it? No; they sure the fuck didn't. Did Brown say he was going to lift these oh so restrictive "anti-union" laws, which Derek Simpson talks about?...
...nope
Keep shilling, Unite. Keep shilling. New Labour may give Derek and his cronies some of the donor money back, if they continue the good propaganda.
System Own Them, Babylon Control Them......

Gordon Brown's Speech: A Patchwork Of Soundbites
Really now, we never did tell Brown that you don't "try, try, try, try, try, try, try and try again", in politics, as you just end up looking mundane.
One thing though, admittedly, that I have to hand to Brown, is that he's no showman; he's fairly forthright in his persona, not coming across like some underhanded businessman, like Tony Blair, David Cameron, and even Barack Obama.
But, his actual content within his speech, was deception after deception.
He announced to us all of how ID cards for sure will not be compulsory. Oh, uhm, yeah, we already knew that before. And right after he made the announcement, the usual banal New Labour drones clapped enthusiastically; as if Brown made a revolutionary turn-over for human rights....
Oh...wait, it was New Labour who conceived of the idea. In fact, it was only until they realised that they couldn't afford this ramshackle idea, that they shelved it, to erode in the ages.
Not only that, ho ho, but the National Identity Database is still up and running; open for voluntary ID cards and foreign nationals, but still up, nonetheless, and they could retort their position within an afternoon, to get it up and running.
Next, there's his idea for free childcare for poorer families, funded by the scrapping of child benefits for richer families. All sounds nice, but who constitutes as being a rich family, unable to apply for such benefit? At what scale of income would this be? If Brown hasn't conceived of the income bracket, for this scheme, then how can anyone seriously believe he's going to propose such an idea? It's just typical New Labour spin, and nothing more.
Then there's his awfully radical vision of making an elected House Of Lords. What a spectacular idea, that, er, only the vast majority of the British population have been calling for, for years on end. Oh, how original. And a proposition to be made as soon as he WINS the next election; how genuinely felt that proposition that is! Reminds me of Tony Blair's PR vote promise that we, uhm, never got!
If this was genuinely felt, then the most apt time to bring this proposition about, was during the height of the MPs expenses debacle. Or better still, the Cash For Honours scandal.
His proposition for 16 - 17 year old Single Mums to get free housing is the most radical thing he's said, and, ideally, it would be a great idea.
A start, would be to actually build housing. The reason house prices here, are so fucking ludicrously expensive, is because of the small supply, yet huge demand for houses. If council houses are going to be built at the pathetic rate they're being built, then forget the idea. We have about three million council homes in the UK, at the moment, as an estimate. Hey, just another radical thought here, but, erm, I just got the extraordinary notion that that...isn't enough.
On a final note, I'd like to point and laugh at a recurring notion within Brown's speech: that the Labour party are the party for the "many", and the Tories are for the "privileged few".
Certainly true on the last part; the Tories are just the same old elitist hacks from the 20th Century, and, rest assured, I'll be particularly hitting hard into their shit, when it comes to their conference.
But...New Labour....party of the many? The same New Labour that has managed to be the absolute antithesis of the Labour grassroots? The same New Labour that has managed to widen the gap between rich and poor in this country? The same New Labour that has spent their entire 12 years appeasing the corporatist agenda, without peer? The same New Labour that has had the most rigid intransigence, on practically every single issue, thoroughly ignoring public opinion, when it's in utter disapproval of what New Labour have done and are doing? The party of the many, that has an unelected leader, even on the scale of internal Labour leader elections? They are the party of the many? Fuck off
I'm no Daily Mailite; New Labour have genuinely achieved some good things. Two, being the National Minimum Wage, and the fantastic advancement of LGBT rights. They're merely a star within a smog cloud, I'm afraid to say, though.

Unions In This Country Are A Shambles
I took the liberty of watching the recent ongoing conference by the TUC, about union policy, motions/amendments and initiatives, and I was dismayed at what I could justifiably call either a "conference of individuals severely out of touch with reality", or a complete wankathon.
I'll go for the latter description, thinking about it.
Credit to Bob Crowe though, whom, I disagree with strongly on most issues, actually had something sensible to say about the future of the unions, reasonably intelligent explanations on the shift to the BNP, and how to make a change.
Within this ridiculous façade of a conference, was pointless jargon about the recession, putting across which popular minority groups would be hit by this recession the most, between ethnic minority union representatives claiming ethnic minorities will be hit the most, and female representatives claiming women will be hit the most. Some, however, accepted that both will be targeted groups.
The fact is, is that EVERYONE will be hit in this recession, in dismaying circumstances, but the fact of the matter, is that there is undoubtedly ONE group who will be hit above all else: the youth. The youth, whether they're Black/White/Asian, Male/Female, disabled or not, LGBT or not, the sting of this economic crisis will be concentrated on the youth. And you can whip up all the pathetic, petty little divisions up, on "who to concentrate more on", but this recession will hit young people the worst. Most importantly though, this recession will affect EVERYONE.
Well, as well as dividing the already pitifully divided, Ed Miliband, of all New Labour hacks, was giving us his say on climate change issues, and a "green" way to get out of the recession; namely, via the mythical clean coal technology.
I know the Miliband brothers have brought the reputation upon themselves of desiring to be the British versions of Al Gore (No compliment), but for the TUC to be investing their faith in ANY issue, on a New Labour spin-merchant, shows how out of touch the TUC are with reality; particularly, that reality which is staring at them right in the face, on a day to day basis: the general nullification of Union activity, created by the Tories, yet FULLY backed by the corporatist New Labour party.
But what really cut to the bone for me, was that slimy, supine, squatt of a man, Derek Simpson, the leader of the Union, known as Unite The Union (More commonly put, as Unite The Useless), was on the conference, putting down any attempt by the TUC to shift from the New Labour party; the party that has stabbed the unions in the back since Blair took to power, and basically responded to such attempts within the TUC by repeating the mantra, "You might as well VOTE Tory!".
Fuck you, Derek.
No, really. This fucking bastard is the epitome of why the working classes are in such inequity with the richest in the country. Not because of the Conservatives, or even Gordon Brown and New Labour, but these fuckers.
Because these people COULD change something; Unite has over a million members. Given that we have a current population of 60 million, and given that around 60% of the general public vote on average, a million is a sizeable amount of the electorate.
Not even that, but a million members could create a hell of a civic movement.
And Derek talks of changing Labour from New Labour to traditional, but does he strive to do it? EVER? No, not at all. He gives EVERY excuse under the sun, from giving us the Derek Simpson dolchstoss of "not supporting Labour means an inevitable Tory victory, and that's the worst possible thing to happen ever!!!!!!!!11", to these anti-union laws, BACKED probably most staunchly by the corporatist agenda of the New Labour machine, preventing any action (Why doesn't Derek organize a protest to get rid of them, then? Starting from the bottom often has to be done, and is better than not starting at all), and then the hilarious excuse, of when bringing up the issue that his New Labour shill organization of Unite, actually FUNDS the New Labour party, he replies that he wouldn't refuse donors, as it would appear like he's "trading policies for cash".
Well, Derek, I know your vanity outweighs your convictions, on any given issue, but the fact of the matter, is that people, working people, who belong to your union, being affected by the recession in or way or another, even if it's fear of being made redundant, are PAYING to be a member of your ramshackle union, and, as both an elected member of the union by the members, and someone who's being funded out of pocket to acquire REPRESENTATION, you are nothing but obliged to represent your disenchanted members, by giving New Labour the boot, and refusing to pay money to New Labour, which is normally paid wholesomely by the struggling and pressurized working members of your union, who make up a sizeable section of the British workforce, being squeezed to death by the recession and the 12 year legacy of New Labour corporatism, and its stamping on the heads of the working classes.
You are a weasel, Derek. And the ugliest variation of one. You are weak, degenerate, supine, and your performance at the latest TUC conference was exasperating, by all accounts.
But don't feel alone; other pathetic Union leaders, whose names, I don't even know, had also expressed your sentiments of turning the back on the very people who put them there, prioritizing the appeasement of New Labour. I can see the similarities between you people and New Labour, in this regard. And watching you grovelling to support of New Labour, on the expense of the ordinary working man and woman, is bone chilling.
There's nothing on Earth worse than you people. NOTHING
