BNP for the win?

Wow, it's been a while huh? seems even we get writer's block.

The real meat of today's post is about the State of the Nation. We currently have a moderate Socialist Government, not quite socialist enough for my liking, but what do I know?

Problem is that our current government, while I've always defended it as the best of the options available to us, has a problem. Socialism has its grounding in allowing people basic freedoms, whether thats religion, sexuality or political affiliation. Recently, the entire list of members of the right-wing British National Party, or BNP, was leaked on the internet. Immediatly, party members began losing their jobs, and our liberal nation became awash with hypocrisy
.
Extreme parties, or ones with a heavy left or right leaning, have NEVER prospered in the UK, as a whole we are a moderate, tolerant society... we don't like to complain. The World sees us polite, running around with our bowler hats and tightly rolled newspapers, bursting frequently into song despite being rained on. So, why all this fuss? The BNP will never get into power, so why does it matter what their members do for a living?

Your Plumber could be one maybe;


Sad thing is, although the BNP's views oppose my own in many ways.. I could be tempted to vote for them. We're currently going too far the other way, a friend of mine is having real difficulty joining the police full time, mainly because he isn't black/asian/gay/transgender/female/ginger enough.

I sure as hell think those groups should be represented, and I love that this is the only country I've experienced where its perfectly safe to kiss your boyfriend, while wearing a leather mini dress, with a pink mohawk, while burning our flag openly on the street.. and no-one cares. Its YOUR right to believe what you wish, hell, that attitude is the envy of the world. Yet we've become so proud of our little multi-cultural melting pot, that immigrants are favoured for jobs and housing over native Brits. That just isn't right, they should have an equal shot, and not be favoured purely because they tick one of the minority boxes.

You can build the biggest house in all the land, and not pay any tax on it if you declare it a mosque.. make it a church and its time to cough up sunshine.

So you see, I COULD be tempted to vote BNP, as liberal and socialist as I am.. I'd much rather have a party in power that cares about me and my loved ones, than one that allows people who are openly plotting the downfall of our nation into government positions, and favours them for housing, jobs and healthcare, simply to keep up appearances at the UN.

Plus, to dispel any confusion, the BNP aren't all that racist. They love Americans, Europeans, Australians, Kiwis and Canadians. They don't even want to kill muslims, they simply believe that our two cultures are so different, its wrong to attempt to mix them.


Its sad to say, but in the interest of being fair minded, you have to see the logic. I can't stand wife beaters, yet in some countries, its perfectly common place to beat your wife.. to keep her in her place. Thats the attitude of a moron, and frankly, if you enjoy such activities, you should live with your own kind.. and probably have to become homosexual I'd imagine. Yet, its natural to assume that guys like me, and the wife beaters, are going to get into some.. "unpleasantness" at some stage, and thats not cool, so maybe we should agree to disagree and stay out of each others way.

Then there is the other hypocrisy, the one that Muslim Fundamentalists spout all over Al-Jazeera, ruing the good name of normal muslim folk, who I've found to be remarkably pleasant and hospitable. They sit there, denouncing the west as hedonistic and immmoral, but they always drive Toyota Land Cruisers, fire Stinger missiles and given half a chance, will shack up in the UK with a Mercedes-Benz and Satelite TV.. make your minds up.

Immoral?
Then how come you guys commited more rapes against under 16's than any other ethnic group? How moral is that? - comes the cry of the BNP, and even I'm left wondering the answer.

So there we go, even I'm a hypocrite. I love almost everyone, but even I have limits. Thats ok though, because as our governemnt has shown, you can believe what you like and work where you want.. as long as you aren't in the BNP.


but to show I haven't gone totally mad, heres some more reasons why these intolerant nutjobs, just won't get in, simply take your pick ;) ;

A pointless waste of my life..

Today, I wasted 8 hours on a management training course, 8 hours that on my deathbed.. I'll almost certainly want back.

The majority of the course is on communication.

"What is Communication?" declares the book.. As you know, this is a very simple question with a simple answer.. except it wasn't.

Apparantly, if you smile on the phone, people can tell. Bollocks, there is no way you can tell if someone is smiling via the medium of the telephone.. you can assume from their tone that they are, but thats it.

It didnt end there, we were told that other forms of communication were body language, music and singing, braille and e-mail. Certainly they are, however, how is this dicussion relevant to managing my warehouse?

I really can't recall the last time I wrote a haiku about how our trucks were overloaded, or displayed my stock levels to the board of directors using the medium of interpretive dance.

This rubbish is exactly why the economy is slowing down so badly, we all spend too much time pissing around. I honestly swear that in the upstairs office the other day, everyone was sat on the ground, throwing and catching "The Idea Ball"..

"oooohhh.. Catch the idea ball!"

"F**k off, and while you're at it.. do some work. I'm here 52 hours a week so you can f**k around catching the idea ball. I'm off now because there will be alot more foul language if I were to stay around."

It doesn't end there.. meetings are filled with words that don't really mean anything;

Imagineering, Brainstorm, Streamlining the business..

Am I the only one who thinks this is all crap? I certainly hope not, but rest assured I wasted the trainer's time as much as she wasted mine. There was a feedback sheet, it asked "What are your aims for this training session", my list was as follows;

Indulge you and get it over with

Get home

Fill my pockets with the free sandwiches at lunchtime

I'm proud to say, I acheived them all.. maybe not such a waste after all.
