Shot in the arm

Guest post from Conservative Cllr Ray Burston – of Dudley MBC, a published author Tomorrow is ‘V Day’ for me – when I trot up to the clinic to become one of those who will have had Boris’s famous ”. Ordinarily, this would have been a sensible public health measure that I would be more than happy to partake of. You see, I don’t have a problem with vaccines. I have annual flu jabs. My children were vaccinated against common childhood illnesses; and they, in turn, have vaccinate

The politics of delusion

There is a powerful scene in the film ‘The Great Escape ‘ where Ives can’t take anymore after one of the tunnels is discovered and with all hope lost walks towards the wire and is shot ‘trying to escape’ in effect he commits suicide because the balance of his mind has gone. Having turned the whole of the U.K. into one vast prison camp, Stalag Luft U.K. , Boris and his deranged little helper Matt Hancock are indulging in the politics of delusion that the wire surrounding every

Guest Post By Paul Wood

AstraZeneca vaccine pulls away the mask from the European Union – we see the very ugly face “We mustn’t gloat. This is no time to gloat. But I can tell you, I am gloating like hell.” (William Whitelaw) The British government is the midwife of the AstraZeneca vaccine. Oxford University was planning to collaborate with Merck, a US firm, but London did not want Donald Trump to be able to seize all the vaccines for US use. The British invested the very large sums of money to enab

Government can only create the conditions for business to succeed not create wealth , direct strateg

Government seems to accruing to itself the role of deal maker in chief and is heavily into central planning of the economy, yesterday I received the most bizarre email from the Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng urging business to get out there and seize opportunities. I have read some delusional emails in my time this one took the biscuit, the biscuit barrel and most of the cake shop. It appears that this academic son of Eton with precious little business background is peddli

What is freedom of expression?

“What is freedom of expression? Without the freedom to offend, it ceases to exist.” – Salman Rushdie Wise words and very relevant this week as Twitter banned outgoing US President, Donald Trump on Friday night after holding him responsible for inciting the crowd who stormed Capitol Hill, despite Trump himself calling on those responsible to “go home.” Facebook has also blocked Mr Trump, who has also been de-platformed by quite a few other media sites. Then, in an upturned cra

PRESS RELEASE

Following the Press Conference yesterday with Boris Johnson and his two senior advisors, senior members of the Libertarian Party were united in their condemnation of the last minute moves to slash the Christmas window for seeing family from five days to one. The legality of this is questionable, as is the timing. Parliament had gone into recess the day before, we are supposed to have the pretence of being a Parliamentary democracy. Party Secretary, Martin Day, said “With my w

The Three Tiers Of Christmas!

Lockdown 2 is due to “finish” on December 2nd and we are all going to be thrust into a miriad of restrictions that when read are mind boggling and ever so confusing. When one reads through the restrictions we can see that we are being duped into believing that the lockdown is coming to an end but I have to tell you that it is not. The three tiers and what they entail are listed on the UK Government website and are excruciatingly painful to read. Tier One – medium alert. Tier

Free Markets and why they are not ‘Left or Right’

An Introduction When you hear the term ‘Free Market’ the instinct is to think of capitalism. Capitalism is based on private property and the right to open shop on that premises and trade your product for someone’s dollar that they placed less of a value on, than your own item. But by far the most important right in the free market, are property rights. Not all property owners seek to turn a profit but instead wish to start a community within the market. An example of a commu

Last Orders

If you’re in a pub when the final bell tolls tonight, you may possibly be witnessing the last “last orders” for many of these establishments. Pubs are being blamed for the spike in “cases” of Covid which coincides with the reopening of schools and colleges and the onset of winter. Oddly enough, this strange phenomenon called “winter” happens every year. They have seen their businesses take a near-fatal hit, barely recover through the summer, suffered intrusions into the priva

The Age of Suppression

This is Hamza Yousaf Minister of ‘Justice’ in the SNP Holyrood Government ( please note the tartan tie to reinforce this) He is proposing a Hate Crimes Bill that actually extends the Policeman in every bedroom to the Policeman at each dinner table. If you think about this logically there are not enough policemen in Scotland to monitor your hate speech around the dinner table. So monitoring can be done by a camera in every home as per ‘1984’ or by the most sinister method know

Tensions between Surveillance and Public Health

Speaking as a Libertarian, I cannot fail to notice the ever-increasing disregard expressed by both of our major British political parties regarding freedom and privacy. Indeed, they seem to use arguments surrounding national safety as well as security like weapons against our inherited ideals of democracy, accountability and social justice (not unlike the aftermath of September 11 attacks), instead of practical medical precautions. Altogether, current COVID-19 restrictions an

Covid Alert Stupidity Levels.

With the introduction of a tiered system of Covid rules, I believe it would be most helpful to align these new diktats to a simple stupidity system. It’s something everyone can understand, so no matter where you are in the country, you know how stupid the rules are in your area. LOW stupidity – Low Covid Alert Level. Basically, there isn’t one. Despite counties such as Devon and Dorset having no deaths at all (even with some wonderful Public Health England creativity) there i

Prohibition doesn’t work

Nicola Sturgeon’s continuously draconian Covid-19 policies have so often been the sounding board for Johnson’s Junta. As she announced Scotland’s pubs would be going alcohol free and have to close by 6pm, it should therefore scare every publican in the land. What happens in Scotland affects us more than we think. Who could ever think that the licensed trade would be asked to survive on non-licensed products sold in the quietest hours of their trading day? In restaurants too,

Renters’ rights versus reality

Leader of the Libertarian Party UK, Adam Brown, questions the logic of more government legislation Whilst many are welcoming the decision to prevent “no fault” evictions, this great step forward in renters’ rights is missing a crucial element, one that affects nearly all government legislation, yet one that is still never considered: the law of unintended consequences. This change, it is claimed, will give renters more security and prevent landlords from being able to evict t

2018. Let’s Make Brexit Great Again

Scott Neville Hampshire Coordinator Let’s not lie. The UK’s withdrawal from the EU is not going well – much like David Cameron in 2014, our prime minister has successfully negotiated the UK giving in to the EU’s demands. If we are truly honest with ourselves following the result of the election – did we expect anything else? For all of his faults (and there are many) Jeremy Corbyn has played a tactical master stroke. He has positioned the Labour Party as one that the die-har
