Using Immigrants as Scapegoats!!

Posted on by Opher

Immigration is a big problem. It needs dealing with! It’s costing us billions.

Tax Evasion by the wealthy is a much bigger problem. It’s costing us tens of billions!

Exploitation by the wealthy results in low pay and poor work conditions. It costs poor people tens of billions.

Profiteering by big corporations and companies puts up the price of all our goods and services and costs poor people tens of billions.

Corruption in the Tory government with their VIP lanes and awarding of contracts to Tory donors cost the country tens of billions.

While immigration is a problem and we do need to control our borders the far bigger problem is hiding in full view – it’s greed, corruption, exploitation, tax evasion and gross inequality. The wealthy are running the show. They run the media. Tories represent the wealthy. Corruption and profiteering are rife. The poor are being robbed by the rich and the rich are scapegoating immigrants.

It’s time the poor woke up to what’s really going on!

It’s time the media bias was dealt with!

It’s time profiteering was stopped!

The likes of Trump, Farage, Johnson, Braverman, Rees-Mogg and Tice are the real problem!

It’s not ONLY Racism that our Biased Media peddles!

The anti-Labour headlines and fearmongering has kept corrupt Tories in power for fourteen years, enabling them to rob from the public services and break Britain. They are a propaganda tool of the Tory Party.

They set out with their inflammatory headlines to stir up fear, hatred and division.

The WORST press in the world!!

Socialism = Fairness and equality

Biased media complicit in hiding the reality.

Tens of billions given to Tory chums for lucrative contracts that never delivered.

Tens of billions given to Tory donors through VIP lanes.

Tens of billions given to Tory chums for useless Covid apps, covid schemes, inflated salaries.

Useless expensive Eat out to spread disease schemes

Tens of billions wasted in unaccounted loans!

Hundreds of billions wasted on Brexit with promises of sunlit uplands, unrestricted travel, unrestricted goods, £250 million a week to the NHS, border security, controlled immigration, lower prices, lucrative trade deals, no dilution of workers’ rights, no reduced environmental regulations, farming and fishing benefits, no Irish borders – ALL LIES!!

Unprecedented sleaze and corruption.

Cuts to public services – robbing the NHS, schools, youth services, police and local government to give to the wealthy.

No plugging of tax evasion schemes – money taken abroad by the likes of Lady Mone.

Cash for questions. Cash for peerages.

Illegal lobbying.

Privatisation pouring our money into the pockets of wealthy foreign investors and Tory donors.

Government oversight a perfunctory shambles with no teeth – Ofwat, Ofcom, Ofgem – fuck off! Rivers full of sewage, energy prices through the roof, education becoming a sausage factory with Heads committing suicide.

Cost of living crisis for the poor while the wealthy double their wealth.

Partygate and tractor porn!

Colossally expensive and heartless Rwanda scheme.

GB news pouring out a stream of propaganda and lies – in the fashion of Trump’s Orwellian ‘Truth Social’.

BBC shackled and controlled. Express, Sun and Mail, Telegraph and Times, pouring out unrelenting stream of -propaganda and lies.

Where is the media uproar?? Where is the SCRUTINY??? Where is the accountability???

Instead, they try to blow up a minor grey area of capital gains tax with Angela Raynor into something it isn’t!!

Meanwhile, the architects of all this corruption, ineptitude, greed and sleaze, Johnson, Cameron, May, Rees-Mogg, Osbourne, Truss and the rest of the Tory cabinet, walk away with millions!!

It’s obscene!!

Propaganda keeps the screw turning.

Thanks to the Daily Mail, Express and Sun the Tory propaganda machine keeps the working class voting against their own best interest. Meanwhile, the wealthy get ever richer and the Tories lauigh at how gullible people really are.

Good old Boris!!

Democracy/Autocracy

Democracy/Autocracy

There’s a battle going down

                For the best way to control us.

To brainwash us through the media

                Or throw us off the bus.

Democracy,

                Flawed

                                But with

                                                Checks and laws.

Autocracy,

                Oppression

                                And control

                                                With vicious claws.

At least in democracy

                We have some say.

In a totalitarian country

                There’s no way.

Propaganda

                Secret Police

                                The despot’s tools.

Freedom

                Of speech

                                In streets and schools.

If only we had true democracy

                With an unbiased media

And no politician’s lies,

                No spin, no tricks

No self-serving fools

                Or clowns in populist guise.

Until then we’ll just make do.

We can vote them out and renew.

There’s a battle between democracies and autocracies!

Democracies are bad enough – what with spin and lies, propaganda and brainwashing, the population is pulled from pillar to post by the shady characters behind the scene. What with lobbying, corruption, threats and bungs our political system is despicable.

But is I have to choose between this and the brutal repression and loathsome secret police I know which is the lesser of two evils.

Democracy – is it achievable?

Posted on by Opher

For there to be a true democracy a number of factors have to be achieved:

a. We have to have a good choice of candidates.

b. We have to be informed.

c. There should be no bias.

d. Everybody has to have a vote.

e. Every vote should count.

f. Those elected need to be accountable.

What we have is a sham democracy. We have a two-party system of supposedly representational democracy. We have a binary vote. With our one vote we are presumed to support the entire agenda of the political parties manifesto. The whole system is corrupt. It is run by money and power. We are being manipulated, brainwashed and lied to.

a. We never have a good choice of candidates. It’s a two-horse race. The political parties have vested interests. Good candidates do not get selected. We have a limited choice between the lesser of two evils. Without huge financial backing no other candidate stands a chance. The media provides the exposure required. The media has to be bought. The media backs who they are told to back. Propaganda rules.

b. With a biased media run by the establishment no election is fair. Antiestablishment candidates or parties are tarnished, lied about and misrepresented. They have no chance. He who controls the media controls the people. We are never properly informed on issues, candidates or parties. Our electorate is politically uneducated.

c. The media is biased. The internet is worst of all. We are fed lies. We are misinformed. Those squealing fake news are the biggest liars.

d. Everyone has a vote. That is a weakness. The stupid, ignorant and most gullible have the same vote as the intelligent, informed and discerning. The stupid, ignorant and most gullible are a majority. This makes it possible for cynical politicians to lie, cheat, promise and blatantly fool the electorate.

e. My vote has never counted. I have always lived in an area that is strongly for one party or another. The only votes that really count are those in swing seats – a small minority. Until we move to proportional representation most votes count for nothing.

f. They are never accountable. They lie, spin and refuse to answer questions. They look for scapegoats and refuse to take the blame for their sleaze, corruption or mistakes. The Tories refuse to appear on any programme that would ask awkward questions or hold them to account.

This is a sham democracy. It fails on all counts.

It needs changing.

It could be made to work – but it is not in the interests of our ‘masters’ to have a functional democracy. They are happy with it as it is!!
