SPEAKING ON THE TORY/LIBDEM BUDGET, SNP COUNCIL LEADER DEREK MACKAY SAID “THE CUTS ARE ABOUT RIGHT” (PART 8)

A few months back the Labour Group on Renfrewshire Council put forward a motion condemning the proposed cuts in the Tory / Libdem budget. The motion fell because the combined votes of the SNP, Tories and Libdems voted it down; they refused to condemn the Westminster Tory budget cuts. Those cuts are now biting and I will highlight some of them on a regular basis.

The SNP and Libdem candidates for Holyrood in our council Mackay SNP, McCartin Libdem, Adam SNP and presumably the other SNP candidate Doig who is not a councillor refused to criticise or condemn the Cameron Clegg attacks on the poor and vulnerable, these people are now asking you the people of Renfrewshire to give them your vote.

Example 8 – A ONE-LEGGED midwife has had her benefits slashed - because she can walk.
Angry Tracy Stronach received disability living allowance (DLA) after having her right leg amputated below the knee three years ago.
But this has been taken off her as the Government try to slash the UK's £12billion welfare bill.
Tracy, 40, who works at Dr Gray's Hospital in her home town of Elgin, Moray, reckons amputees have become an easy target.
She said: "I wonder just how many other people are in the same situation"

I regard this as an unacceptable attack on the vulnerable. Derek Mackay and the SNP/Libdem coalition think differently.

I would like Renfrewshire Council leader Mackay SNP to tell us if this is one of the cuts which he is on record as saying "are about right" perhaps he could do this before people go to the polls for Holyrood.

 

 

 

 

TO THE FREELOADING WINDSORS, THE BRITISH TAX PAYER IS A DRIPPING ROAST.

f you were invited to a wedding where the groom's Grandfather was an offensive arrogant old clown and the Grandmother was a speaking doll with nothing between the ears, and the grooms father and his brother and sister were divorced and his other brother a twittering nonentity , where the grooms late Aunt Margaret was a raving nymphomaniac bigot who was reported as saying on leaving the Film Schindler's List "those fucking Jews always moaning" as well as a Great Grandmother who was also an offensive arrogant racist bigot who died £6million in debt simply because she exploited her position and refused pay any bills what would you do: politely decline perhaps?

The Royal wedding this Friday will instead be fawned over by millions and paid for by us, this dysfunctional bunch of parasites will be quite willing to let us pick up the tab despite enjoying riches themselves 'beyond the dreams of avarice'. I would make them hold the wedding at Wembley Stadium and sell or auction tickets as well as selling film rights to anyone who is prepared to pay, that would be far more dignified than scrounging off the tax payer at a time when so many of their subjects are being trashed by their loyal grovelling friends in the Tory/Libdem Coalition Government. They could have had a Royal whip round to pay for it and also test their mettle by seeing how many would contribute "The inequality of society is highlighted by Government cuts and the privatisation and decimation of essential services. This Ruritanian farce demonstrates a nauseating insensitivity to the hardship faced by the overwhelming majority of people in Britain.

Looking on the bright side: surely this vulgar display of privilege will hasten the day when monarchs with all their forelock tugging flunkies and unelected Lords and Ladies will be confined to the dustbin of history, the sooner the better, it's not necessary to follow the example of the glorious French and Russian revolutions and treat them rather harshly,. All we need to do is pass a bill through Parliament and issue them with real jobs and council houses and that would be it.

I will finish on a note for all you Scottish freedom fighters in the SNP as I paraphrase Alex (the spiv) Salmond "her majesty The Queen will be the head of state in an independent Scotland as will her heirs and successors" how do you like that one bravehearts the (wee spiv) has saddled you with an English Queen for ever under independence. We are continually told that the Royal Family are not political right? wrong! There are 4 past Prime Ministers still alive two of whom were invited: Major and Thatcher and two of whom were not invited Blair and Brown, go figure. Oh and I believe wee Alex (the spiv) is going too, they would be best advised to count the spoons afterwards.

The last word goes to Thomas Paine "a hereditary ruler makes no more rational sense than a hereditary dentist.

SALMOND (THE SPIV) STOOPS EVEN LOWER

Am I the only one wondering how Alex (the spiv) Salmond and the SNP are feeling right now and over the past week or two following the horrific events surrounding Celtic manager Neil Lennon, Trish Godman MSP, Paul McBride QC and Brian Wilson ex Labour MP and cabinet minister?

We all know by now that all four have been targeted by some demented bigot or bigots who sent them parcel bombs which; according to Police were designed to and capable of causing serious injury and even death. We also know why they were targeted, it's because all four are prominent supporters of Glasgow Celtic FC. This is Scotland Alex! 2011, a country rife with sectarian and racist poison, it's time you admitted it and tackled it instead of denying it, stop telling us what a wonderful country we live in and start telling the truth. I will come back to this.

This is the country described by the crass and blustering Justice Minister SNP MSP Kenny McKaskill as "compassionate" when he released the Lockerbie Bomber (a correct decision) which he made a mess of, let me repeat what I said about him then. There is no such thing as a compassionate country it is a stupid and chauvinistic insult to claim such crap, people can be compassionate; countries can't. A couple of weeks ago this same utter clown described the Celtic Rangers Cup Final as a show piece for Scottish Football when everyone who was at the game or heard it on radio or saw it on TV knew that the atmosphere was once again polluted by sectarian racist chanting and singing throughout, this guy is a figure of fun but dangerous, he should not be allowed near any position of influence or power.

Alex (the spiv) Salmond saw personal advantage and acted instinctively to exploit it he jumped in and organised a summit which he of course chaired, who else with an election approaching, it doesn't get any lower. This is the same man who withdrew funding from organisations which were set up by the last labour Government to tackle sectarianism and racism in Scotland, organisations such as "Nil by Mouth" If Salmond really cared about such things he would curb his and his members language which continues to be anti English and dangerous, we live in a country where someone can be attacked for having an English accent and Salmond (the spiv) and the SNP encourage it. It used to be the fault of England and the English for everything that they saw as wrong. That became too obvious and thuggish and has now become 'London rule' rather than English rule, 'down south' rather than England and 'Westminster orders' rather than English orders but the meaning is the same. As long as the SNP continue to use such language they will be responsible for making the streets dangerous for those with English accents and they will continue to shame Scotland.

Meanwhile Alex (the spiv) Salmond is hoping that he has pulled a fast one and people will not remember how he withdrew funding from the cause he now belatedly is championing, as I said "it doesn't get any lower"

 

WHY WON’T THE SNP CANDIDATE DEREK MACKAY ANSWER MY QUESTIONS?

SPEAKING ON THE TORY/LIBDEM GOVERNMENT BUDGET, SNP COUNCIL LEADER DEREK MACKAY SAID "THE CUTS ARE ABOUT RIGHT" (PART 7)

Yesterday at the Community and Family Care board I once again stated that he (Mackay) had said in public at a full council meeting that "the Tory/Libdem Government budget cuts were about right" he once again decided not to comment on my statement.

A few months back the Labour Group on Renfrewshire Council put forward a motion condemning the proposed cuts in the Tory / Libdem budget. The motion fell because the combined votes of the SNP, Tories and Libdems voted it down, they refused to condemn the Westminster Tory budget cuts. Those cuts are now biting and I will highlight some of them on a regular basis.

 

The SNP and Libdem candidates for Holyrood in our council Mackay SNP, McCartin Libdem, Adam SNP and presumably the other SNP candidate Doig who is not a councillor refused to criticise or condemn the Cameron Clegg attacks on the poor and vulnerable, these people are now asking you the people of Renfrewshire to give them your vote.

Example 7 – Do you agree with me that people who are old, frail and disabled should be looked after by the state? SNP candidate Derek Mackay doesn't seem to think so! A recent announcement by the Tory/Libdem Government (SNP supported) after Parliament went into recess has axed funding to 13 social care projects. Vulnerable elderly people suffering from disabilities, dementia, chronic illness and mental health problems will bear the brunt of this decision which, along with the other cuts Derek Mackay the SNP Holyrood candidate has described as being "about right"

I would like Renfrewshire Council leader Mackay SNP to tell us if these are some of the cuts which he is on record as saying "are about right" perhaps he could do this before people go to the polls for Holyrood.

TORIES AND LIBDEMS BLAME IT ON JOHNNY FOREIGNER AS THEY PLAY THE RACE CARD AGAIN.

Yesterday we saw the return to traditional Tory politics as David Cameron once again played the race card, not for nothing did former Labour giant Nye Bevin famously describe them (the Tories) as vermin. The race card has for long been a safe fallback position for the Tories when things are going badly as they are now doing. Cuts are biting and their lickspittle friends in the Liberal Democrats are starting to wobble as Mr. Cellophane Vince Cable describes PM Cameron's remarks as "very unwise" he goes on to say what everyone knows but some want to deny that high profile remarks like his on immigration can and do lead to extremists seeing the green light to attack immigrants. This is the same Tory Party who ran an anti immigration campaign in the notorious Smethwick by election in 1964 where their candidate; a local Tory thug campaigned under the slogan "if you want a nigger for a neighbour vote Liberal or Labour" this was back in the days when the Liberal Party actually stood for something decent, the Tories will never change.

Here we are 47 years on and the Tories once again drag the country into the gutter by stirring up trouble over immigration; the reasons? There are two - 1/ there are a lot of racist people about and many of them are Tories and 2/ Elections are looming and the Tories don't mind who gets hurt when they are after votes. Cameron's statement that net immigration will come down to tens of thousands rather than hundreds of thousands is made against a backdrop of polls suggesting that fewer people are concerned about immigration now than they have been for the past 9 years, the last thing Cameron and the right wing want is harmony. Harmony does not suit them hence the despicable attempt to stir up trouble. Conventional wisdom suggests that Cameron's rhetoric is not achievable which makes it even more obvious that it's a stunt to gain votes, unfortunately innocent people will now sleep more uneasily because of his posturing and people will suffer as the knuckle dragging racist morons take succour from his weasel words.

Cameron is doing what unsavoury Tories have done before him and used scare tactics to win votes as well as ingratiating himself with the Tory right wing, he doesn't care about the consequences and neither do his Liberal democrat partners who will do as they are told even in the knowledge that this is right wing racist politics of the worst kind. The skinheads, football hooligans, the BNP, The English Defence league and closet racists everywhere are celebrating again. The obsequious Labour MP Frank Field predictably joins in currying favour with what he calls the majority over the liberal elite, there is another word for that Mr. Field it's called mob rule, history teaches us some good examples of where targeting people who are seen as different can lead us.

The British National party accused the prime minister of poaching one of its own policies in the election build-up. What more needs to be said, I can hear our very own Liberal Democrat leader Eileen McCartin harumphing her support for this Cameron initiative already.

50 YEARS AGO TODAY IN A GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY.

50 years ago today Yuri Gagarin became the first human being to leave the planet earth and Scottish Actor Roddy McMillan wrote this charming wee children's song about the event, to the tune of "oh dear what can the matter be" Gagarin's fame as one of the Family of Man's greatest explorers might well outlive the song but it was a great way for kids at the time to learn about this, one of mankind's greatest ever adventures.

Chorus

Oh dear, Yuri Gagarin,

He flew tae the moon when it looked like a farthing,

He said tae the boys at the moment of parting

"Ah'm juist gaun away for the Fair"

Now inside the ship he lay down like a hero,

The doors were sealed up and the countdown was near- o

Ten-nine-eight-seven-six-five-four-three-two-one-zero

An Yuri went up in the air

Now when he took off he was shook tae the marra

He circled the poles and he saw the Sahara,

He gave them a wave as he passed over Barra

The day he went up in the air

Now when he went up it was juist aboot dawning,

The time when the rest of the world wis still yawning

Then Yuri returned to the land he wis born in

Withoot even turning a hair

When he came tae London they tried the saft pedal,

A wee bowler hat and a rolled-up umbreddle

But the foundrymen went an they struck him a medal

An gied it tae him at the fair

SNP CANDIDATE MACKAY HAS DONE A RUNNER !

It seems that SNP candidate for Holyrood Derek Mackay has folded his tent and run aff tae think again.
I have now asked him to explain on 6 separate occasions why the cuts that I have been highlighting were described by him at a recent full council meeting as being "about right" I know he reads my blog because he has said so several times in council so where is he? Why is he not answering? The SNP's Holyrood opponents must be shivering and shaking with fear at having to face this Scottish Braveheart warrior eh?

SPEAKING ON THE TORY/LIBDEM BUDGET, SNP COUNCIL LEADER DEREK MACKAY SAID “THE CUTS ARE ABOUT RIGHT” (PART 6)

A few months back the Labour Group on Renfrewshire Council put forward a motion condemning the proposed cuts in the Tory / Libdem budget. The motion fell because the combined votes of the SNP, Tories and Libdems voted it down, they refused to condemn the Westminster Tory budget cuts. Those cuts are now biting and I will highlight some of them on a regular basis.

The SNP and Libdem candidates for Holyrood in our council Mackay SNP, McCartin Libdem, Adam SNP and presumably the other SNP candidate Doig who is not a councillor refused to criticise or condemn the Cameron Clegg attacks on the poor and vulnerable, these people are now asking you the people of Renfrewshire to give them your vote.

Example 6 – Do you agree with me that people who are disabled are entitled to a living allowance? Do you agree with me that the Government should provide mobility support for the 80,000 people who live in care homes? It has been eight months since the government announced a 20% cut to Disability Living Allowance (DLA) Disability charities have witnessed massive levels of concern over the future of support. Despite a huge backlash and many complaints the DWP have announced that they do not intend to change the proposals, the government is going ahead with a £2.17 billion reduction in support. They also remain committed to axing mobility support for almost 80,000 disabled people living in care homes.

I would like Renfrewshire Council leader Mackay SNP to tell us if this is one of the cuts which he is on record as saying "are about right" perhaps he could do this before people go to the polls for Holyrood.

SPEAKING ON THE TORY/LIBDEM BUDGET, SNP COUNCIL LEADER DEREK MACKAY SAID “THE CUTS ARE ABOUT RIGHT” (PART 5)

Example 5 – ( Child Poverty action group ) – Is it a good thing for Government to provide assistance to children who are born into poverty? I say yes it is a good thing. Tory/Liberal Democrat cuts will mean that these children and their families will lose £1,500 a year according to the ( Child Poverty action Group ) I think that is a disgrace, what do you think?

I would like Renfrewshire Council leader Mackay SNP to tell us if this is one of the cuts which he is on record as saying "are about right" perhaps he could do this before people go to the polls for Holyrood.

SPEAKING ON THE TORY/LIBDEM BUDGET, SNP COUNCIL LEADER DEREK MACKAY SAID “THE CUTS ARE ABOUT RIGHT” (PART 4)

A few months back the Labour Group on Renfrewshire Council put forward a motion condemning the proposed cuts in the Tory / Libdem budget. The motion fell because the combined votes of the SNP, Tories and Libdems voted it down, they refused to condemn the Westminster Tory budget cuts.

Example 4 – Clyde Coastguard. Is it a good thing to have a coast Guard Service? I say yes it is a good thing. Does the Coast Guard Service save lives? I say yes it does.
What do you say?
Under current UK government proposals, Clyde Coastguard will close with the loss of more than 30 jobs.

I would like Renfrewshire Council leader Mackay SNP to tell us if this is one of the cuts which he is on record as saying "are about right" perhaps he could do this before people go to the polls for Holyrood.

Example 3 – The Paisley Daily Express recently revealed that people with Learning difficulties who use our Day Centres are having their allowance of £2/week stopped and they are also now being forced to pay for what was previously free transport.

I would like Renfrewshire Council leader Mackay SNP to tell us if this is one of the cuts which he is on record as saying "are about right" perhaps he could do this before people go to the polls for Holyrood.
