A Real Environmentalist - "Ming" Campbell
Safe hands proved he can take care of the LOCAL environment. Listen Mr Cameron!!! Take a look at the follwing proposals of the Lib Dems:
Green taxes should be used to change behaviour
Green taxes - including excise duty on fuel - should not fall in real terms from year to year
There should be a substantial increase in the top rate of Vehicle Excise Duty
The climate change levy should be reformed into a universal carbon tax - including household emissions as well as business emissions
Air passenger duty should be restructured as a tax on aircraft emissions, not passengers
Say goodbye Cameron to your Norway ward at these LOCAL elections.

The Syndicate are coming to a school near you.
Brace yourselves for arguably the most organised group of people since the Mafia.
Don Vito would be proud of this group of people who are determined to overthrow the School Council at their local high school. They are known to have used dangerous tactics in order to achieve this.
This is a phenomenon that has quickly increased in number and is led by the Don, a.k.a The Godfather.
The Godfather has indeed allowed the viewing of such films as ScarFace, Reservoir Dogs and most notably The Godfather itself to influence his decision to make this group of distinguished people.
For those of you whose sons or daughters are in School Councils, watch out because there is a Syndicate nearby.

Tories will not make gains in the local elections....but maybe in Norway
Pompous, pathetic jibes and the furthest constituency from Westminster.
Are you thinking what i'm thinking....yes you are aren't you....you are probably thinking of the same country as me. Of course i am refering to the largest local council ward....Norway.
Yes that is how local things get for the Conservative Party. They turn the local elections into international elections. Why worry about our streets being clean when we must surely be more concerned with melting ice caps in Norway.
Mr. Cameron thinks its the General Election.
I apologise for my sarcasm but i doubt that the people of the Mile End & Globe Town ward in Tower Hamlets and in other wards up and down the country are losing sleep over this issue from a LOCAL perspective.
People want cleaner and safer streets. A fairer system of Council Tax. They want their local hospitals to be of the highest standard and not wait for months on end to get a place at a school for their children. People want to know that the 25 Bus Route from Ilford to Oxford Circus will still run and much much more.
Are you thinking what i am thinking....vote Liberal Democrat!!!

The Beauty of the French Left
The possible candidates for the French Presidential elections in 2007 have been unofficially announced.
We all knew about Nicholas Sarkozy from the Union pour un Mouvement Populaire would stand. But there is a suprise candidate, Segolene Royal, the wife of the leader of the Parti Socialiste, Francois Hollande.
Apparently she is able to win support from both sides of the political spectrum. However, it seems that there will be many bedtime conversations between the two before the official declaration of the candidates in April next year.
M. Hollande lost out in the last Presidential elections where the Front National managed to gain enough votes to make the second ballot a Right vs Right contest. I would like to make the prediction now that Francois has my backing for the candidacy.
A word of warning, there will be another fight by the Front National due to the pathetic handling of the "easy-hire, easy-fire" legislation and the failure to recognise the social-economic problems in the Banilieues, the suburbs of Paris and other major French towns.
Lets hope the beauty of the French Left wins, whoever their candidate may be.

Blair defends another and another and another
Four jags has had an affair, and this time not with the famous make of car or another crazy spending spree on a house.
Of all the people to have an affair in the Labour Party, four jags was the last one that i expected to have a scandal of this nature.
The affair is reported to have started at an office party
Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott has confessed to having had an affair with one of his secretaries. The MP for Hull East said he regretted the relationship with Tracey Temple, 43, which had ended "some time ago".
"I have discussed this fully with my wife Pauline who is devastated. I would be grateful if [we] can get on with our lives together," a statement said.
Downing Street said it was a "private matter" and that Mr Prescott, 67, had the full backing of Tony Blair.
Mmm, the lives of politicians.....
Well, i guess we should give him some credit for trying to loose weight.

No Platform for BNP. The democratic right to freedom of speech.
The BNP. Racist, sadistic and thugish (for the want of a better word). These words describe the nature of the BNP membership. Are they entitled to the same freedom of speech as any other political party? Should they benefit from a freedom that will impede on the freedom of others?
Arguably, the Respect Party has indeed been accused of racist comments when refering to the Jewish community. However, they are still allowed a platform in which they can express their views. Now of course that example is just hearsay but the same principles apply. Is their a vendeta against all slightly right wing political parties?
In my constituency of Sutton and Cheam, the BNP candidate was highlighted as a non resident of the ward they are standing in. Apparently that makes their nomination void.
I am a left of centre individual but i do believe that any political party or individual should be able to express their opinions as long as they do not direct their views at any group or person within society.
I despise racists as do most intellectual people, however my main question is should they be able to participate in our political process?

Petty, Self-interested or both? Your choice...
Some organistions do have them. You know, those who just want to fill gaps in C.V's etc...I would love to hear comments about this clan of people that i call "Ownists". These are people who disregard any kind of realism and are so convinced that they are right that they fail to see the effects of their actions. Perhaps we can compile a black-list of those who we feel should be on their.
A bit like a no platform policy.
The choice is yours.
