Too Little, Too Late, Gordon Brown

This morning, PM Gordon Brown told Andrew Marr that he wants to ‘clean up’ parliament.
He wants a ‘code of conduct’ for MPs to follow.
The thing is, there’s already a code of conduct – it’s called the law!

All we,  ‘the people’ want, is to have reasonable laws and for people to follow them, equally.

Special Privileges

Members of Parliament are special. They have special responsibilities. In a nutshell, they represent us in the speaking house, the parler-a-ment. This simple fact makes them special. Within the speaking house they are allowed to say quite derogatory things about each other which in the outside world could be libellous. But this is the nature of the game. This is the special status that exists in Parliament for our representatives so that they can speak without fear or hindrance.

This simple freedom seems to have been forgotten.

Maelstrom

Now they must all watch what they say, toe the party line, think of the future and their reputations…… Big Brother watches everything.

Now they think that they need extra-special status and self-justifiably grab whatever beneifits and remunerations they ‘think’ they are due.

This is the show we have now stumbled upon; evading tax, feathered nests and the nepotic practices of a third rate African despot, that is.

Greed

From left to right of the ruling classes, they’re greedily identical. Depending on how much wealth they currently have, their aspirations to further wealth naturally vary – but the greed in their minds is the same.

Shocked

The PM Gordon Brown has said he’s appalled and shocked by the revelations – despite being one of the ringleaders during the information-blocking process!   Now, in a further devious twist, in the interview, he’s not-so-subtly trying to shift the focus away from MPs again!

He just can’t stop it, can he?   He’s in total denial and his brain is in action debt!  Fiddle, fiddle,  fiddle.  Hide, hide, hide.

So yet another ‘code of conduct’ is supposed to be the panacea!   It’s just staggering ineptitude and a total denial of the events in recent financial history where our money systems, all obeying a ‘code of conduct’, all visibly folded. And he wants more of the same?

He says that he,

“…wants a clean-up of all public institutions – such as the NHS and the BBC”

This is the “smoke and mirrors” distraction, which could be all well and good, especially in the champagne-bottle-strewn corridors of the BBC.  Unfortunately for Brown, these institutions are already ‘code of conduct’-ed to the gunwales!

We need a Code of Conduct Czar we’ve got so many!  Call it OfCodeOfConduct!  OfCon for short, with the emphasis on Con.

NHS?

All changes since 1997 have been a Brown/Blair initiative. This means it’s their idea and their fault.  He can’t pass the buck!

Like MPs expenses, the power for change is as directly in his hands now as it always has been, and it’s disingenuous to shift blame again. He’s Prime Minister for fuck’s sake! If he can’t do it, what’s he for?

In fact, it reveals the depths of psychotic deception to which our leader, Gordon Brown, will plummet in a vain quest to change Britain (to what?) before the axe falls on him. He’s frantically grasping at straws, trying to stay afloat in the maelstrom of his own creation and management.

This psychosis means that all his good works (and to be fair, there have been many); minimum wage, better family allowances, better health service, 12 week operation wait, new hospitals, better child care, rail electrification etc;  they are all as nought.

• They’ve been completely cancelled out by the institutionalised corrupt practices at all levels of society under his watch.
• Most will inevitably be rolled back by some future government, disguised as part of a ‘wider process of reform’, as they’ll say.

And if this future government is a bunch of Nazis then we’re in big do-dos.

Because the bad things that Brown & Blair have started – e.g.

• the police state
• surveillance everywhere
• shoot to kill
• war on terror
• arrest and detention without trial for indefinite periods
• torture
• kidnapping
• lies to further a war
• massive reliance on databases and their subsequent loss!

…many of these won’t be rolled back. It’s that chip-chip away at freedom. Eventually when it’s all gone, then there’ll be a realisation. And if we don’t fall into the Maelstrom, there’ll be a bloodbath in it’s place…

What Must be Done?

Simple really.

• Sack people who are incompetent with minimum compensation.    This means No Payment For Failure.  Make sure that this applies to politicians and all hitherto cushioned leaders, business or otherwise.  It’s what 99% of the population have to endure.  Enforce this by passage of a “Corrupt Payments and Bonus Law”.
• Pass a law to retrospectively get money off the corrupt and incompetant bankers.  This is what we’d do in the fight against organised crime.  It’s what we do against dole-scroungers who’ve abused the system.   This is what we do against tax-evaders.   It’s the same thing – Just do it!
• No more Codes of Conduct.  Make proper, morally clear, enforceable law.
• An end to all priviledge.  Equal treatment under the law and one law for everyone.
• Use the army to get our money back from Tax Havens.  Give them something useful to do instead of propping up heroin production in Afghanistan…  It’s our money that’s been siphoned off – go and get it.   We won’t need an ‘International Banking Code of Conduct’ for the future.  I mean, what would little Cayman, Bermuda and Lichenstein really do if a troop from Norton Manor Camp pull up at the front door of the ****** Bank Of ***** and ask for all our money back?  If the army can’t do that and protect the wealth of our nation, then retire them.
