Check out Facebook

The Lib Dems are trying to privatise public services in Northampton town through the back door. This is not democracy, nor is it representative of the majority of the electorates views or indeed members of their own party. But since when have they listened, I find it tragic that a once great, innovative, principled political party should have members that stoop to this level. Shame on you. There is a large group of Lib Dems on Facebook that support properly funded public services, maybe our home grown variety should pay attention. In times of recession people become more reliant on public services, not less. They provide jobs, support for the vulnerable and boost the economy, sometime less is not more!

Small is Beautiful

This is the post I wanted to write before, and is far more important that my anti BNP rant! Tonight the Law was actually mightier than political bullshit! Transparency, democracy and honesty in politics actually won a victory! Arrogance is the biggest disease that has infected our democracy since the mid eighties, and today we, in Northampton, took a small step to deflate that egocentric approach. Blinding, brilliant and incredible achievement.

And now I am an 'ignorant fool'

The wonderful enlightened people that are the BNP have just called me an ignorant fool, thank the gods and all the angels I am! Mr Northampton Patriot (HA!) you are so right, I don't know you, but I did witness you and your so called compatriots behaviour outside a certain polling station where you saw fit to break every electoral law, and intimidate and bully people you saw as vulnerable. You not only wasted my time but that of the Chief Executive and the Electoral Commission, the Police and other public services, not to mention bullying a very well respected member of the Community that is Northampton because he has a learning disability (and a Doctorate......). I may be an ignorant fool but your actions in Delapre reverberated throughout the County, from Tories, Greens, Independents, Lib Dems...... all of them had heard about your behaviour and are not prepared to tolerate you or your ilk.

Time to start blogging again

Well long time no write people. It's all been happening too fast for my very slow brain. The election is over and the BNP were pushed into 4th place in Delapre and Far Cotton, Hurray! Not that they were too happy with the result but I shan't lose sleep over it........

However the nasty people did win two seats in Europe, which to put it mildly is a worry and people need to be on their guard. The BNP will not go away. Ignoring them DOES NOT WORK, campaigning actively against them does!!!! And now we all; need to get out there and keep on putting the message out, THESE ARE NOT NICE PEOPLE!
