    The UK GOP is in power. Which means the GOP love of making the poor pay for the mistakes of the rich (as with most British banks - that corrupt powerhouse of their economy) is a malign benignity the British public will just have to suck up - just as the Greeks have had to do.

    George Osborne has announced deep cuts in welfare and Whitehall spending after admitting Britain's malfunctioning economy had left him unable to meet the government's targets for repairing the public finances.
    The rating agency Fitch responded instantly to the chancellor's news that his austerity programme would be extended until 2018 – well into the next parliament – by warning that the UK was at risk of losing its coveted AAA credit rating.

    Come sit down beside me I said to myself
    And although it doesn't make sense
    I held my own hand as a small sign of trust
    And together I sat on the fence

    Good that New Zealand is so far away from UK. Otherwise, might be a UK/Rothchild summit meeting for off shore Brit/Venture capitalist accounts similar to GWBush/Romney Associates and Cayman Island refuge.

    But I am forgetting.. is not that other Billionaire friend of GWB a Brit? The one who has his private shuttlecraft flying people into outer space for a mere 200K ticket for a 30 minute 0 gravity ride?

    So Cayman Islands is the place you want to be, if mega rich, and want low to no taxation, and no government, yet still enjoying protection from other countries military, funded by government, by taxation on the middleclass. And with private shuttle craft, you can reach island from UK in less than 30 minutes.

    Would you like to ride in the beautiful balloon? For we can Fly! Up up and away.Leave the rest to die, just pay 200K.

    I am reading the Shock Doctrine. In shock.

    And I am becoming more sensitised to the probable fact that the rich only let the peasants survive because they are useful in their kitchens.



    The only question is whether you are a scullery maid or the man servant who turns down the bed and places the condom on the pillow beside the chocolate sweetmeat where the masters are playfully entertained by scullery maids in search of a fat Christmas bonus.

    Oh Jeez. The Poms have introduced goal-line technology into their banal national sport.

    In order to keep the bogans in the stands from having to exercise their limited IQs.

    And to stop them from rioting.

    The murmurs surrounding the Libor scam - an excess of British banking that surpasses the mightiest corrupt efforts of the US banking industry - are almost inaudible.

    How is this so? Can it be that Cameron's cosy relationship with the Press has managed to bury it in some remote bog in the Orkney Islands?

    Congratulations. As of this most recent topic, you have returned, at last, from the former depths of upside down world , to Zero Karma, and 0 rep.

    At least you are brilliant in the other world, while at lowest level in this world., something which eludes the GrumpyDog/SkullKrusher syndrome of being average in both worlds without much distinction. Although, with some pride, GD was banished from PF permanently, (if only by accident, rather than for astounding commentary)

    Yes, I see I am now more karamelised than Grasshopper would like.

    I was banned for 2 weeks from PF for calling someone a $#@!. I then called the mods $#@!s. They greeted this sincere expression of opinion with an extension of my ban to 5 months. I'll have to work on the permanent thing when and if I bother to return there.

    You have aptly demonstrated, that level is independent of perceptions. Thus, one can attain great height, or depth, by merely traveling around and visiting some of the more remote departments in crazy store.
