Equality or Fairness; which is more attainable?

26/08/2010 by Mike.

The talk is again focussing on the equality in our society. It is about time the politicians woke up to the fact that we are all born in an unequal society. We are, to some extent, hostages to the circumstances that we start with, some are born strong others less so, some are born in comfortable conditions others in “hell on earth”. We can’t do anything about this, what we should be concentrating on, is creating a fair society where everyone has an opportunity to change their condition, if they choose to do so.

Not everyone wants to have equality and you should be careful what you wish for.

We can’t all be rich but we can make everyone poor

We can’t all be enterprising and industrious but we can all be lazy

Some are stronger than others but we can make everyone weak

We do not all excel academically but we can all be stupid.

What is important is that the strong help the weak and the bright help the less able. It helps no one to make the strong weaker, just so we can be equal; this reduces their capacity to assist others in a less fortunate position.
We must search for incentives that motivate the stronger in society to assist the weaker elements that deserve our full support. Punishment is a demotivating action and to over tax the rich will not help the poor, the rich will find ways to minimise the effect and the poor will still be poor. We need to devise policies that encourage the wealthy to invest in activities that help our society, this is unlikely to happen whilst we have a section of society abusing the system of welfare that has been developed in this country.
Communities can no longer carry the burden of those who do not and will not pull their weight; moreover their activities increase the burden on the public purse.

Labour Desperate to Hang on to Power

05/05/2010 by Mike.

Today we hear that leaders of the self declared “New Labour” encourage voters to vote Liberal rather than Conservative in an attempt to hang on to power via the back door. They obviously believe that a hung party will enable them to dominate a very weak but “Celeb” Liberal grouping. What does this mean in reality? Look at the dictionary definition of the term:

Coalition       

noun

1. A temporary group or union of organization, organizations, usually formed for a particular advantage.

So the dictionary definition says it all. Who’s advantage? Where is the mention of benefit?

You can guess the real purpose!

It is a real statement of just how low this corrupt group at the top of our political system will stoop to hang on to power at any price.

I also hear that Gordon is appealing to Labour voters who have deserted the party to return to the fold. Well let me say that it was the Blairites who took the party away from the people and it is they who should return to their roots. It is crass to say otherwise. I seem to recall that Mandelson said he courted the “filthy rich” and Blair the celebrity culture.

 it is a “New Labour” government that has overseen a mass of social failure, for example:

• Recorded widening of the gap between the poorest and richest in our society
• Highest proportional levels of pupils leaving school illiterate not able to speak or write properly
• Advocates of Privatisation in terms of the Post Office, Costly PPFI, Utilities etc.
• So many economic blunders too numerous to mention here, well documented elsewhere
• Headline grabbing introduction of ASBOS which have become a “Badge of Honour” whilst the public live in terror on no go area estates
• Decline in the manufacturing base, loss of MG Rover, LDV, Peugeot UK operations, Wedgewood, Sale of Cadbury, BAA, Sea Ports, Utilities to Foreign Control almost loss of the London Stock Exchange, etc, etc.
• Massive unbridled immigration
• Unprecedented implementation of exaggerated political correctness
• UNBROKEN PROMISE TO GIVE US A SAY ON EU POLITICAL UNION, an act of treason

To put the blame for today’s problems on previous governments just does not wash. What problems need more than 13 years of total power to fix or at least having a clear indication of progress toward being fixed? This is nothing short of incompetence, why should we suddenly believe they have a magic transformation.

 Am I a conservative? NO

Am I a Liberal? Certainly not

However I am prepared to vote for another failed party; the Conservatives simply to get rid of these liars.

Then maybe the Labour party can rejuvenate itself and get back to the basics and their roots.

Using ex-soap stars to spread fear and put forward negative electioneering shows just how weak they have become and how desperate they are to fool those who do not consider things clearly.

Don’t be misled, go out and vote for a party that represents how YOU feel not how your parents voted. If you don’t like any of them, spoil your paper and register you protest.

Afterwards the opportunity for a new force to break through will undoubtedly arise as it is now clear that our whole political system is in need modernisation and not just fresh wall paper on a cracked wall.

Small Parties and the Election

01/04/2010 by Mike.

It is a sad fact that the “dice are loaded” against the smaller parties and independents gaining much success in the forthcoming election due to the distortion in our system that is in force in the UK at this time.

These notes have been prepared to highlight this situation which it is hoped will contribute to the debates ahead. The notes are written as background and not as a formal paper of political research, that said, some aspects are based on analysis of information readily available.

Some of the points raised in the text include:

·         The Blair Project - distortion of political arena

·         Hereditary and Traditional ties for voting

·         Growth in Party Registrations

·         Centuries of experience in civil service

·         Balance and common ground of smaller party policies

·         Redundancy of MP’s

·         Public funding of parties

·         Media barriers

·         Party beliefs

·         Working together for the good of the nation

 

Discussion

On the surface our political system appears to be democratic and fair; however an examination of the process shows this to be highly misleading, largely due to the distortion created by the party system and those running the major groups.

In the 1990’s a small faction saw a gap developing in the political system as the traditional Labour and Conservative parties, popularly labelled left and right respectively, had polarised and moved apart. Rather than having the courage of their convictions and starting a new party as many are trying today, this group chose to manipulate the weaker of these big two, creating a massive distortion of the political landscape whereby traditional voting patterns were put aside in the hope of real change.

The increasing frustration of an ever-growing number of people has prompted some, to step forward to try and bring about the much needed modernisation to the way the political system operates in this country today, which was promised but like many other issues the government of the day have failed to deliver. As a newcomer becoming progressively more involved gaining an understanding of the way things work, I can see the masterstroke behind the cowardly, but strikingly effective ruse, to re-brand the traditional Labour Party as “New Labour”, the party of the middle ground.

This ingenious psychological move, worked on the strong hereditary ties with the “working class” by creating the misconception that the Labour Party still stood for the working man and opposed the multi-national companies that had put fear into the population, as the dogma of out and out Capitalism from the Thatcher years was taking hold.

Unfortunately we see today, that the brand “New Labour” is tainted and confused as it is neither Socialist nor Capitalist based; it is a very bad hotchpotch of both with superficially presented, socialist worded policies but blundering capitalist actions as those in power do not have the depth of business experience to deliver.

In my opinion, I believe that we have reached this situation due to the political manoeuvrings of small elite who have fogged up the base belief systems, so that choice is almost irrelevant. This has been created by the narrowing of political policies that are tailored to appeal (from all parties), to the potential “floating voter”; taking for granted that the traditional partisan voters will not change lifelong patterns, thus creating the so called “safe seat” syndrome that has led to the disastrous misuse of parliamentary privileges.

The “Blair Government” of 1997 did not contain anyone with a business background or demonstrating a successful career in creating anything; made up of Academics, Lawyers, union representatives and career politicians. Sadly this remains largely the same mix today with perhaps an increase in the career politician element in each of the big 3 parties to the detriment of the nations stewardship.

One year ago there were about 288 political parties formally listed on the electoral register for the United Kingdom, by the 11^th March 2010 when I started these notes, this had increased to 367 and by 29^th March risen again to a total of 389, a current list can be found at the link following, click on search to select all parties http://registers.electoralcommission.org.uk/regulatory-issues/regpoliticalparties.cfm?ec={ts%20%272010-03-31%2010%3A04%3A47%27} .

This is an increase of 101 parties registered in the last year of which 35 parties were registered in March with 7 registrations on 29^th March alone. I have detailed the listing with dates of registration at the end of these notes.

The vast majority of these parties are very small single issue groupings with a particular focus. Judging by the choice of party naming, many are protest actions and I wonder if they are serious about the political situation or merely demonstrating their dissatisfaction with the state of things.

Just over a year ago now, I was looking for an organisation that I felt represented my views with some substance behind them and not just a narrow focus group. I am not a socialist but believe strongly that national assets and interests should be managed for the benefits of the citizens of the UK and not multinational companies often fronting for foreign government institutions, particularly in the utility sectors. On the other hand, I am not an outright capitalist but believe that entrepreneurial flair and right to manage effectively is something every nation needs, to be successful.

Unfortunately I found many of the parties listed to be disaffected groups with an axe to grind in some shape or another, many being outright left or right wing, others bigoted or almost racist in nature. The majority do not have any breadth of policies and do not seem to have thought through the mechanics of being a real political party to represent a constituency.

So what is behind this clamour to register new parties? From the general feedback in the media, it is not from a deep interest in the political landscape, I would suggest more a revulsion with the behaviour of many current MP’s and the feeling of despair at the current party system which stifles new ideas and contributions.

The past success of Great Britain owes much to the foundation established by its Christian heritage. Not so much from the religious or belief system but from the structured knowledge base, learning and organisational processes along with the inherently moral foundation that is common with most religions of various denominations.

England has (for better or worse depending on view point) for more than 5 centuries, since The Act of Supremacy of 1534, had a common head of state and of national church which was separated from the government. This depth of experience in management and administration of the country is reflected in our language with the use of the term “clerical workers” who shoulder much of the responsibility for the administration of a multitude of differing tasks that make that the country tick. This infrastructure, established progressively over the decades, is inherent in the organisation and spirit of the “Civil Service” that recent governments have undermined rather than developed.

Many of the modern politicians in their clamour to appeal to everyone and upset no one, have forgotten and brushed aside the very strength of the nation that stems from this longstanding tradition of Britain and what is commonly known as its “Christian Values”. This is not a religious point, many of those (me included) who say they hold these values do not go to church. It is more a generic term for values that are believed to be inherently sound and good, accepting that the theocracy element is of little relevance to much of the population.

So to find a political party that is not too left wing, as outright socialism plainly does not work; not too right wing as it is uncaring; not bigoted; not racialist, not believing everything should be nationalised but also not agreeing that everything should be left to the mercies of capitalism; has a broad understanding of macro management whilst accepting that action is carried out at the micro level, is a very difficult entity to find.

The big parties are very quick to make false accusations against any small voice that disturbs the status quo, for example the recent government labelling of all who question mass immigration as being racist. This makes sensible debate very difficult as the small voice has no access to the might of the national media, creating the impression in the public’s mind that independents and small parties are voices in the wilderness and a wasted vote. In fact they have a substantial contribution to make, as they are not trying to curry favour with any particular group to win votes, however no mechanism exists to harness this contribution.

A recent study by the Popular Alliance of the policies of 6 smaller parties (including the Greens) showed a common ground of over 85% in themes and aims and with a little adjustment to wording, could easily be common policy statements.

Add this to the little differentiation we see between the major parties and we can see that there is massive scope for some unity in the major policies that affect the nation. So why can’t the big boys work together for the overall benefit of the UK? The answer lies in the whole party system which by its nature propagates division, dogma, adversarial competition and the “tit for tat” mudslinging that is seen regularly in PM Questions.

In business over the last two decades we have seen a massive drive to flatten management structures, empower employees at the point of delivery, modernise practises and improve efficiencies all round. Management, employee and process development have been key to changes of recent years

Compare this to the situation in our political system where those in charge do not need any formal qualifications for the job they are in power to do; have allowed the majority of their power to be usurped by an unelected foreign organisation, in effect making a large element of their work redundant; in business this would have led to massive reductions in staffing levels. Contrast this to the reality of what has happened in the UK, we have seen the growth in national assemblies, regional authorities, and a multitude of quangos, who carry out the work of our elected representatives; all adding massively to the overhead of the management of the state. In business this would be commercial suicide and heads would roll very quickly.

So why do our MP’s not see this crazy situation? Well they probably do, but it would be like Turkeys voting for Christmas to do something about it. Therefore like business and natural forces, the answer lies in a new approach; exactly what the smaller parties want to achieve. Ironically, here lies the problem.

The smaller parties are run by highly motivated individuals who passionately want to improve the country. However, they are mostly, also driving individuals in the organisations that provide their livelihood and do not have the time or financial wherewithal to devote their full, exclusive energies to make the difference to unseat the professional politicians who have the support structures that can undermine any potential threat to their existence.

Another barrier for a new candidate not supported by a party machine is there is no “Fast Track” introduction process to the political world where the negative media pressures will suddenly bear down on family and friends, focussed on the past rather than what can be done in the future. This is further exacerbated by the media requiring a party to be of a certain size before they can have a seat at the table of debate, or have a wealthy benefactor who can pump money into an initiative to gain publicity.

Maybe the argument for the political parties to be funded from the public purse would address this issue, however judged by the evidence of recent registrations, I believe that this will only encourage more frivolous parties to spring up and waste even more taxpayer’s money.

I refuse to accept that amongst the 389 parties, there cannot be a new grouping that could come together to mount a significant challenge to the big 3 over time. However we see new parties springing up every week, formed by motivated individuals who simply do not know that there are other like minded groupings out there with common aims. Which brings us back to the coverage in the media, who seem to think that the big 3 have a monopoly; this is restricting the lifeblood of publicity to embryonic organisations. I see no reason why the BBC as a public service provider, cannot run a local ½ hour programme providing a husting for local parties to outline their views on a regular basis and provide the opportunity for groups to merge and bring about change for the good of the country.

After my search for a party that is compatible with my views, I found that the Popular Alliance provided the best fit for me; I dare say that others within the 389 listed will provide a better fit for others. One of the overriding reasons for selecting to join the PA is that, inherent in their beliefs, they welcome as part of their membership, everyone regardless of race, gender, colour or creed. The only criteria are that they fervently want to improve the ongoing situation for the nation as whole, whilst maintaining what is recognised as the “British” way of life. Together with the cultural values that have attracted others to these lands over the centuries to the extent that in many forms or other, we are all mostly immigrants of some sort.

Of course the need for flexibility, logical thought, commitment, teamwork and a broadly commercial nature is a prerequisite to any successful organisation.

Pity our MP’s do not display these characteristics.

I am sure that there are many like me who would like to make a contribution to the political arena and improve the general situation by raising standards and introducing modern business practise into the system. However I fear the situation is against this.

I would welcome the opportunity to discuss matters with likeminded individuals who want to build a better Britain for us all.

PM Questions

25/02/2010 by Mike.

Having listened to this weeks session on Wed, 25 Feb, I can only conclude that the rabble pretending to run this country are now demob happy as they run down toward the farce of the general election.
It is clear they are not fit to run any organisation let alone the country. It seems all they can do is exchange insults with each other whilst the world spins around them; let us hope that next time round an injection of fresh blood can bring about a change.
However; as many will be from the same infected source of the “Party System” the hope is, in my view, forlorn as the new boys and girls will not want to rock the boat of the establishment.
It is sad that Mr Cameron chose to get personal in place of using the vast amount of ammunition provided to him by the abject performance and failures of the current governments policies.

Let us hope when the date is fixed the real action can start.

Immigration & Racists

23/02/2010 by Mike.

So Labour brand all who raise the subject of mass immigration as racists.

The quote “the lady doth protest too much, me thinks” springs to mind here.

Having spent a decade relaxing controls that has allowed more people into the country in the misguided belief that they are natural labour supporters, the last thing they want now, is to have this cosy pattern disturbed.

When will these misguided, “head in the clouds”, socially irresponsible politicians, understand that the immigration debate is not about the colour of the skin or the belief system of those seeking to come to this country, it is about pure number and the socio economic infrastructure to cope.

Uncontrolled immigration hurts immigrants, residents and nationals alike.

A more worrying issue is the substitution effect where skilled human resources are leaving the country, to be replaced by, largely, less skilled people; this is leading to a general lowering of the overall skills and experienced labour, available to satisfy national needs.

I would have thought that a rational, dispassionate, review of numbers and the effect that all immigration has on our society would be a welcome debate at this time for the benefit of all, then again I am not a politician and live in the real world so what do I know.

Further to my blog this article appeared in the Daily Telegraph     http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/immigration/7308288/We-cant-take-any-more-people.html

This supports my case that the issue is not related to race or creed and we need to address the issue without delay.

Government Electioneering & Advertising

18/02/2010 by Mike.

Further investigation into the matter of Government Advertising has highlighted that we have seen this before in the run up to a General Election.  Back in 2001, Government spending on advertising was £16.2million in January, £16.5 million in February and then soared to £30.2 million in March.  The year before, government spending on advertising averaged only £7.3 million a month.  Similarly in the year before the 2005 election, the Government’s advertising spending jumped from £189 million to £203 million and then fell again in 2006 to £167 million. 

In fact, the Government’s advertising budget has quadrupled from £59 million in 1997 when Labour came to power.I think it is an abuse of taxpayers’ money, particularly when budgets are being cut elsewhere.  It is not responsible and is certainly not value for money.

Yet another example of how this current band in the government show scant regard for the use of public money when it comes to satisfying their own aim’s.

Abuse of Tax Payer Money for Electioneering

12/02/2010 by Mike.

Is it my imagination or are we suddenly seeing an increase in adverts from government departments?

It has caught my attention, as in recent days I have seen adverts from the NHS and various direct gov sections. I believe that the government spin doctors are at work here and are behind a subliminal campaign to show a caring and protective regime for the population.

Nothing could be further from the truth with this government.

I could write extensively on the failings of government policies of both major parties over the past few generations; however I find the lies and deceit of the so called “New Labour” particularly disgusting.

If my perception is true, it needs to be brought to the attention of the public and fast as I believe this misleading Labour government is indeed using taxpayers money to promote their own interests.

These advertisements, however noble or not they may be, should be subject to a moratorium until after the election to avoid any misunderstandings arising. I am sure the issues they raise can wait a few more weeks.

Abuse of Position of Power

19/11/2009 by Mike.

Seeing the TV Programme last night “Make me an MP” it is clear that the Democratic Alliance will need to get a clear framework in place before any major news release about the Alliance so they can appear before the destructive element of our UK press and media.

This week’s “Queens Speech” is another example of the total disregard “New Labour” has for the democratic process. It has used every opportunity to further its own political objectives under very thinly disguised public announcements and initiatives.

Also this government has vandalised our historic heritage in acts of spite under the banner of class distinction which no longer exists, for example the top tier of labour is hardly working class and no longer represent the so called “working man”, so what real choice does the electorate have.

Today we have economic class distinction with low, middle, upper and rich income brackets; this reflects more accurately our society and attitudes as what was interpreted as “Class” in the past is long gone.

The Democratic Alliance through the participating groups and individuals, must create a real alternative for the electorate where independently minded groups, work together as a team to run this country properly.

Brown and that Letter

11/11/2009 by Mike.

What a distasteful affair this has turned into. I would be the last to defend Brown on any issue of politics, however when the attack gets personal I feel the attacker has lost the case and the initiative.

I have every confidence that Gordon Brown wrote the letter to Mrs. Janes with all sincerity and for it to have been in his own hand is a good thing. To criticise the letter is one thing to record a phone call is something totally different. How many times do we here “telephone calls are recorded for training purposes” to warn callers of this occurring, so to do it secretly is not on.

Nevertheless, just as I was on Gordon’s side on this up steps Mandelson and opens his mouth for his own publicity and has taken away any thoughts for Brown when he accuses the media of manipulating the situation for their own agenda. The phrase about pots calling kettles black springs to mind.

This individual incident is indeed very sad and emotive, that said no political argument should be reduced to personal attack as we simply do not know the sentiments or the conditions prevailing at the time of writing that letter.

There is enough ammunition around to attack this failed government if only the people want to listen without resorting to sleaze tactics.

Let us instead look to a future where this type of childlike behaviour is eliminated from the serious business of running our country and the emergence of a new political force through a Democratic Alliance of smaller parties and independents to break the dominance of the failed major political parties.

The United Kingdom is no more

04/11/2009 by Mike.

So the dirty deed is done.

After hundreds of years defending our sovereign rights against dictators with the massive loss of life, our unelected leader signs away our rights and in doing so breaks a hard manifesto pledge to give us a say on the subject (the Irish had 2 shots). Cameron now also backs away from a very public pledge whilst Clegg always made clear he would sign away our rights to an unelected body without any resistance.

So how can we trust our politicians for a day longer.

Whilst our right to self determination (something we fight for, in several foreign countries for the rights of their population to have this) is disgracefully signed away, what are some of our politicians doing? looking after themselves and still complaining about their expenses!!!

Says it all really.

Now we will have another unelected so called leader foisted upon us after the French and Germans huddle together in a corridor somewhere, to decide who they want to back to lead the falsely created entity. Is this not ironic given the last two (and hopefully last) world wars.

The fact that it could be Tony BLIAR is an absolute disgrace. As for Milliband for a top post, did he not speak to a European audience in a treacherous manner recently, saying we should just acquiesce to the situation.

Now we have this new “Super State” why should we carry the load of Iraq and Afghanistan, we should withdraw our troops and let the EU take over with immediate effect. How many will step up to the plate and provide troops I wonder.

The British people (whilst they still exist) must wake up to the self destruction of our political system before it is too late.

Fresh new parties are needed to bring about the real change needed. Take a look at Popular Alliance and others like them who can work together to make a new force for the good of all.
