The new UK government recently launched public consultation websites asking for ideas on how to cut public spending and reduce bureaucracy.

The results have shocked the media elite and their political outriders in the Labour Party. Ordinary everyday folk, forgetting that their true station in life is to accept without question the musings of the thousand families who form the Guardian/BBC/Academia Axis of Cultural Supremacy, have unleashed a wave of politically incorrect suggestions that strike at the very heart of Received Wisdom.

One Labour MP dismissed them as “offensive drivel” – I fancy she might have been referring to this

If someone steals cut a finger off for punishment, how many people do you know who would likely steal if they risk having a finger cut off? not many

Why can’t left wing media/political types be more nuanced about these sort of ideas?  Drill deeper into this and you’ll probably find someone who lives on a hellhole of a council estate where muggings, burglaries and vandalism are daily events largely ignored by a police force more concerned with ferreting out homophobic utterances or racist remarks than aggressive and bloody minded criminals with weasel lawyers.

Maybe the poster remembered an earlier time

Our society was once one where the vast majority were law abiding citizens who respected the rule of law and those who enforced it.  Doors were left unlocked, even open and only very rarely did anyone take advantage of that fact to steal, assault, rape or even murder the homeowner.

Which is why they made this suggestion (which got a fair amount of agreement)

It is high time that our legal system stopped pandering to the bleeding hearts and returned to a time when the law was feared, when sentences were harsh and prisons uncomfortable.  Some will say that the old system treated them like animals.  My opinion and I am sure the opinion of many others too is that CRIMINALS ARE ANIMALS and animals are NOT Human and therefore are NOT entitled to HUMAN RIGHTS.  They choose to act like animals and I respectfully suggest they be treated as such and therefore have entitlement to Human Rights legislation and protection revoked as a punishment for their actions and choices.

Another popular poster, who clearly worked hard for not much of a wage, was fed up with seeing “parasites and scroungers” living a life of Riley on government hand outs from his or her taxes…

Hardworking and honest people are undermined by a benefit system which appears to facilitate a more luxurious lifestyle for people out of work/ unwilling to work. The majority of social housing estates are littered with satellite dishes and, a glimpse in some homes (through programmes like the Scheme and others which illustrate the laziness and unwillingness of some people to work) inevitably have the latest leather sofas and the largest flat screen TVs/ gadgetry that money can buy.

Clearly the BBC needs to broadcast many more documentaries emphasising the human rights of these people to have plasma TVs and leather sofas to build up their self esteem….

And, of course, there is total ignorance of how it would upset the feelings of Guardianistas if we cut foreign aid – not to mention all those juicy salaries paid out by the aid industry.

I read in the D Telegraph that £42 million was given to China in 08/09to aid such projects as providing reading material so Chinese kids could identify Climate change! This is the country that gasses its population and has the worse human rights policy in the world!

£380000 was given to Saudi Arabia; argubably one of the world’s richest nations. My son is a policeman – that would buy him 12 colleagues.

India is one of the biggest recipients of our generousity with £250m a year. A nuclear power with growth expectations of 10% and a power that has its own Foreign Aid system – this is surely a joke?

And of course the inevitabe question of how much of this aid actually reaches those in need arises when despots and dictators are exposed with their fat bank accounts regularly.

Doesn’t this person realise that the whole point of Foreign Aid is to make the guests at London NW1 dinner parties feel good about themselves as they chatter over the sun dried tomatoes and chilled white wine?

It’s all smoke and mirrors, of course….not much will change. But at least it shows that decades of propaganda from schools, universities and the media have still not managed to suppress British robust common sense and sheer bloody mindedness – and a thread of dark, mocking humour…

Repeal the law of universal gravitation in it’s entirety.

Repealing the law of universal gravitation would help fast track our space program by making space exploration considerably easier and less costly.

 A possible side effect may be falling into the sun or shooting off into space, effectively killing all life on Earth.

Maybe one day we might eventually be so provoked that we shall rise up and break the grip of the elite…..meanwhile we can always make a note of convenient lamp posts….
