A Spot of Verse: Illegal Immigrants Poem .....

I cross ocean, poor and broke. Take bus, to see employment folk.
Nice man treat me good in there. Say I need to see welfare.

Welfare say, 'You come no more, we send cash right to your door.'
Welfare cheques - they make you wealthy! NHS - it keep you healthy!

By and by, I get plenty money. Thanks to you, you British dummy!
Write to friends in motherland. Tell them 'come fast as you can.'

They come in turbans and Ford trucks, and buy big house with welfare bucks!
They come here, we live together. More welfare cheques, it gets better!

Fourteen families, they moving in, but neighbour's patience wearing thin.
Finally, British guy moves away. Now I buy his house, then I say,

'Find more immigrants for house to rent.' And in the yard I put a tent.
Everything is very good, and soon we own the neighbourhood.

We have hobby, it's called breeding. Welfare pay for baby feeding.
Kids need dentist? Wives need pills? We get free! We got no bills!

British crazy! They work all year, to keep the welfare running here.
We think UK darn good place. Too darn good for British race!

If they no like us, they can scram. Got lots of room in Afghanistan !

News....

Fallen American. Jules on the Battle of Antietam.

Now even police can't object to gipsy camp in picturesque village...because it's racist. Some councillors need to be 'removed'.

Ofsted said 15,000 useless teachers worked in our schools. Nine years on, how many have been fired? Just 10 The National Union of Teachers has destroyed Britains education system.

More than half of teenagers leave school without core GCSEs, league tables reveal. Thanks to the teachers.

Return of the noose: St Kitts has just hanged its first man for a decade and believes it is the only way to beat violent crime. And they are right.

Even rapists and paedophiles are being let off with a slap on the wrist in a grotesque parody of justice. Another part of British life wrecked by Labour.

National intern scheme to help graduates through the recession. Sounds like slave labour. There again most graduates are as think as s**t and not fit for much else.

BBC rates entertainment over accuracy. Accuracy and the truth have never been the BBC'c strong points.

Family of Afghan rape victim cut her open and removed foetus without anaesthetic. Savages.

Metropolitan Police accused of protecting staff against rape allegations. Protecting their own.

Gaza: international plan hatched to bring back Fatah. Using French and Turkish Troops. I can think of two less trustworthy nations to bring this about.

$3m ransom drops in for Somali pirates. Piracy pays! This is hardly going to discourage future piracy attacks.

Twins not his, but man must pay child support. WTF. I can see this coming over here.

Why are we kept in the dark about OUR war? Good question from Clarkypoos.

Don't show the MoD, it will only give them ideas for more budget cuts....

Saturday Totty....




Meet Hamas' Children.....you won't find this on the BBC or CNN.

Words of Wisdom In Crisis Mode....

The next time the poo hits the fan, remembering some of these eternal words of wisdom will help you tolerate the stench a little better.
1) Indecision is the key to flexibility.
2) You cannot tell which way the train went by looking at the track.
3) There is absolutely no substitute for a genuine lack of preparation.
4) Happiness is merely the remission of pain.
5) Nostalgia isn’t what it used to be.
6) Sometimes too much drink is not enough.
7) The facts, although interesting, are irrelevant.
8) The careful application of terror is also a form of communication.
9) Someone who thinks logically is a nice contrast to the real world.
10) Things are more like they are today than they ever have been before.
11) Anything worth fighting for is worth fighting dirty for.
12) Everything should be made as simple as possible, but no simpler.
13) Friends may come and go, but enemies accumulate.
14) I have seen the truth and it makes no sense.
15) Suicide is the most sincere form of self-criticism.
16) All things being equal, fat people use more soap.
17) If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.
18) One-seventh of you life is spent on Monday.
19) By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends.
20) Not one shred of evidence supports the notion that life is serious.
21) The more you run over a dead cat, the flatter it gets.
22) There is always one more imbecile than you counted on.
23) This is as bad as it can get, but don’t bet on it.
24) Never wrestle with a pig: You both get all dirty, and the pig likes it.
25) The trouble with life is, you’re halfway through it before you realize it’s a “do it yourself” thing.

WTF!!!!

Yes it is real.

'A young inventor has created a motorbike with a twist -- it uses two wheels but they are positioned right next to each other, giving it the illusion of being a powered unicycle. And even better, it might help save the planet.
Ben Gulak has spent several years building the electric Uno that uses gyroscopic technology -- like the infamous Segway commuter device -- to stay upright.
The bizarre-looking contraption has only one switch -- on or off -- and is controlled entirely by body movement. The rider leans forwards to accelerate to speeds of 25 mph and back to slow down. It has two wheels side-by-side and has been turning heads wherever it has been ridden.'
