Meghan and Harry

I haven't watched the whole interview with Oprah, and I won't watch it.

I find it extremely hypocritical of them to want privacy, and then do everything in power to publicise themselves.

Firstly their arguments over Archie not being made a Prince because of his skin colour. Absolute rubbish. Prince Harry's children were NEVER up for becoming Prince's of Princess's until Prince Charles becomes King.

Surely Harry knew this.

Secondly, I have a real issue with Harry, not supporting his wife. For instance. Meghan, being an American will not have the knowledge that Brits do have when it comes to etiquette regarding The Queen.

The fact that Meghan has stated she had to Google what she had to makes me beg the question, where was Harry? Why wasn't he teaching, and supporting her from day one.

Is he that entitled that he honestly felt it was someone else's job to support his partner? Especially someone who comes from a different country, and culture.

Thirdly, the racism toward Archie from within the family. They should out the person who said it. You cannot sell a half truth, and just expect to be believed 100%, also it's unfair on the innocent who never made such a comment, if it is true. 

To me it looks like he didn't learn lessons from the way his father treated his mother, and made the same mistakes.

Then the accused can either apologise, and make amends, or deny that it was said, and if it is true, it's disgusting, vile, and yes it is racist. Why would that even be a question?!

Fourth, why are we pretending that they didn't make any mistakes. Why is it everyone else who is in the wrong, maybe they did some things wrong. The fact that they're unable to look at themselves, and blame the world shows the level of their narcissism.

Fifth, I honestly find it hard to believe Meghan had no-one to turn to. However I do believe that royal life was too much for her. I believe they did the right thing moving away. 

Yet, again Harry seems to be letting down Meghan again by not explaining the rules to her. 

The royal family didn't cut them off out sheer nastiness, they did it because they know the British public will not stand for paying for security of royals who have taken a backseat.

The fact the Harry hasn't explained that it comes out of our pocket to Meghan shows he's either in total denial of how the situation works, or that he doesn't care who foots the bill, as long as he gets what he wants.

Again Archie, and their future daughter were never in line to be given titles like Prince or Princess. 

From what I can see it's Harry who's let Meghan down, as well as the British people by turning his back on us.

Especially my generation who I know absolutely adored him, and we adored Meghan, we were happy to see him happy. How many hundreds of thousands of people turned out to cheer them on their wedding day? How many people travel thousands of miles to wish them luck for their future?

Not one mention of that.

Lastly, the antagonism between Kate and Meghan is sad. If they tried, which I honestly believe they could have BOTH done more to do so, although I am pretty sure both parties would argue with me and say they did, which says it all.

They could have been a powerhouse for women all over the world. They could have shown what sisterly love can achieve. 

Instead, they both decided against that.

I believe the main culprits of this bust is, Harry's ignorance in helping his future bride prepare properly for royal life, and the one thing I haven't mentioned, the people behind the scenes, the faceless advisers, and aides to the Royal family, I believe they do more medalling than the British Media could ever dream of doing.

All in all, it is a sad state of affairs. Meghan and Harry want privacy. Now keep quiet, stop shoving your faces into our homes. We are happy for you take a backseat. Now leave us alone.

The Royal family, if this racist comment on Archie's skin tone is true? The guilty party needs to educate themselves, maybe talk to the black community of this country, as well as others, to see and feel what they go through on a daily basis, purely because of the pigmentation of their skin. 

Review: THIS LAND: The Story Of A Movement Owen Jones

It's no surprise to anyone that I am NOT Owen Jones' biggest fan, nor am I one of his biggest haters either. In todays world I find him rather boring, and extremely predictable.

However, he did shock me when he decided to write about the troubles Corbyn and his team went through, whether that be self-inflicted wounds or internal sabotaging, or the (as Owen put it) "right wing press." especially so soon when I am sure the wounds are still healing.

So, I decided to read it (I haven't actually bought it, I downloaded it with a credit on my Audible).

Owen speaks of the late Tony Benn, with great passion, how his vision of a socialist Britain could have saved Labour in the 1970's from the "Winter of Discontent", and subsequent disastrous defeat, leading to Britain's first female Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher. 

However, Jones' love for Benn I find quite blinkered. Benn was a socialist in his words, but not in his actions. For example, selling his private diaries. The ONLY reason someone would sell their private diaries is for money, capitalising, and profit. (It's OK to live like a capitalist so long as you talk like a socialist.)

Also totally bi-passes the fact that Benn used a tax avoidance scheme so that those who inherited his £5 million fortune didn't pay too much inheritance tax. 

Then there is love to shout down the "right wing" presses denunciations of Corbyn from the moment it was clear the backbencher was going to win the leadership contest. 

"Terrorist Sympathiser" Jones reads as one of the many headlines that followed Corbyn's victory in 2015. Yet he does nothing to squash that headline, nothing to contradict it, mainly because Corbyn had snuggled up to many terrorist organisations, for example befriending ex IRA leader Gerry Adams in the 80's (possibly 70's I haven't a clue as to how long the two have known each other.), or even inviting terrorist organisations like Hezbollah to parliament "for tea."

Of course not ALL of Jones' denunciations were as briefly mentioned and I found he had purpose for his annoyances, however, not many.

I also found his argument of the "war from within" extremely one sided. He interviewed many people who were close to Corbyn, or at least a sympathetic ear to Corbyn, but not once did he go to the other side to hear their version.

Instead Jones' took the words of his fellow "comrades"(?) as gospel, and didn't bother properly investigating. 

For example, saying that Alan Johnson told one pro-Corbyn Labour MP to "Fuck Off". Never once did he go to Johnson to ask if it were true, or any reasonings behind this outburst if it were.

As well as "outing" a former Labour MP as possibly gay, extremely risky, and not at all fair, why he felt the right to publish this information is beyond me.

When it came to him writing about Corbyn's leadership skills, I found that he was grasping at straws. Corbyn, the man, the myth, the avoider.

The way Jones' writes about Corbyn's approach to issues, is almost like listening to my sister describe her 7 year old avoiding doing his homework, or the left try and describe Trump taking any criticisms. 

Ignoring anything issues that cropped up by not answering his phone, wearing a deliberate suit to let everyone know he wasn't happy (WTF?!), or just losing his temper like a toddler. Not turning up on time to prepare for interviews, and TV debates because he found them boring. Making tea whilst in the middle of an extremely important meeting.

Never once does Jones describe Corbyn as taking control of anything. Not pushing particularly hard on Iain McNichol (the then Labour chairman), regarding the process of investigating anti-semitism into the party.

Jones' obviously has a whole chapter dedicated to the anti-semitism crisis that Labour faced under Corbyn. Which I was pleasantly pleased to see.

Then when the chapter ended I was shocked, again not once did Owen go to the JLM, or an individual former Labour Jewish voter and ask why they felt unsafe with Corbyn at the helm.

Instead he tries to indulge us with the fact that Corbyn himself was "shocked" at being labelled as such, and in his shock decided to IGNORE all good advice as Corbyn's mind, that made him look guilty of anti-semitism himself, and almost tried to ignore the issue.

Now, I watch enough crime documentaries to inform you, it's almost like someone refusing to do a lie-detector test, it automatically (wrongly or rightly) makes you look guilty, more so than ever before.

It feels, through Jones' writing, that Corbyn tried to make himself look more guilty, or that he genuinely isn't that sharp and didn't understand that he was harming his own political future as leader, or indeed Prime Minister. 

In summary, Corbyn did nothing to help himself, it comes across as though he relied on everyone else to do it all for him, because he either found it boring, or he didn't like what he was hearing so instead of dealing with it he ran away.

Thank god he never won a general election. He, according to what I've read in Jones' book, wasn't ever fit to lead Labour let alone Britain. 

And as for Jones' account, extremely one sided, so much for equality!

USA Riots: Why I Agree

Not going to be a popular view with many people who I would normally agree with, however here is my reasoning why I agree with the riots going on in the USA.

In the past 10 years there have been so many innocent black people killed by police officers for no apparent reason.

1. Sandra Bland was arrested in 2015 for a broken tail light, which in the grand scheme of things is not a reason to arrest anyone. She was taken in, and a few hours later found dead in her cell by hanging. There are a lot of speculation as to whether she actually killed herself, or that she was dead when her mug shot was taken.

Let's all agree there was no reason to arrest her. Yes she had a broken tail light, and no she wasn't being rude, or attacking the arresting police officer, yet for some reason he still took her in. There is a video you can go and watch here.

2. Eric Garner was arrested for the possible possession of drugs. He didn't have any. He was killed by strangulation. He told the officer, who had unnecessarily got Eric in to an extremely tight headlock. In the video you can here Eric tell the officer "I can't breathe." The officer didn't let up, and Eric died for no reason.

Again he wasn't resisting arrest, he wasn't challenging the officers in anyway, and yet he was killed. You can watch it here.

3. Walter Scott, just like Sandra Bland, was pulled over for a broken tail light. Walter was shot at 8 times, of which 5 hit him. Walter himself was unarmed.

There was no reason to kill him. He was not a threat. It was a broken light.

4. George Floyd, just like Eric Garner, was suffocated because the police officer kneeled on his neck, and just like Eric Garner, he told him multiple times that he couldn't breathe. The police officer ignored and killed George, again for not good reason.


Now there have been spates of riots in different US cities such as Minnesota, Minneapolis (where George was murdered), Atlanta, and Detroit.

Of course I am sure there are many, many more where innocent black people have been either killed, or maimed by US Police Officers.

Now I am not someone who agrees with rioting lightly.

However, the murders of people just because of there skin colour does deserve to have anger. I am angry that there are white people who think they're above someone else just because of skin pigmentation. It's shameful, ridiculous and downright stupid.

I am agreeing with the rioting because sometimes you have to take extreme measures in order to get heard.

Barack Obama was president for three of the murders mentioned above, as we all know, Barack Obama is a black man. He did NOTHING.

President Trump has, and most likely, will do NOTHING.

They will do nothing, if people aren't shown to be angry, because politicians have this wonderful way of ignoring the will of the people, the people who put them into the position in first place.

I hope this will make Trump listen to people's anger. Listen to the fact that there IS a racist problem within the USA from those with the slightest bit of power, and someone who just happens to be black.

If no-one listens, and these murders carry on, these riots are only going to get worse. Listen, learn, and do something about it. Otherwise, Trump and whoever follows him, they will be the ones with blood on their hands, not the rioters, the politicians.

#GeneralElection2019

Two weeks until we take to the polls to decide between Johnson & Corbyn.

However, things haven't run as smoothly as last time for Labour & Corbyn.

Today the Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis wrote an article in The Times about the dangers of Corbyn becoming Prime Minister for not just the Jewish community but the 'soul of our nation@.

I have to agree. Corbyn is dangerous because, if he isn't anti-Semitic himself, he has been willingly blind towards it.

There has been countless complaints regarding anti-Semitism within the Labour Party, and they've done the bare minimum to combat it.

Even when BBC's Panorama did an investigation, Labour & Labour supporters laughed it off, and only spoke about the music, totally ignoring the fact the someone had genuinely thought about suicide because of it.

Labour & Corbyn aren't doing enough, or anything to put the Jewish community's mind at rest, and yet seem confused when people are still complaining about it.

Apparently there have cases of Labour canvassers arguing with people on their doorsteps over the issue.

Not to mention the fact that Labour want to prolong the Brexit issue by wanting ANOTHER 3 months to renegotiate a new deal with the EU, which they will then vote down in the House of Commons, and give the public another referendum between their new deal, which they would have just voted down, and remaining.

They've even said they would then campaign against their own new deal, and work for remain winning.

Jean-Claude Juncker has said he can't see the EU allowing another renegotiation.

The Conservative Party are the only party, apart from the Brexit Party, offering us a way out, of honoring the first referendum result, which has been, thanks to our democratic loving MPs, blocked at every corner.

Voting for the Conservatives is the only way to get Brexit out of the way, so we can start concentrating on other issues.

And then of course there is Labour's spending plans. Spending plans that would kill the country, see off entrepreneurs, and see unemployment grow to levels we can't even begin imagine.

Remember, Corbyn is a fan of Hugo Chavez, the late Venezuelan leader, and Maudro, the current Venezuelan leader, who's socialist policies have seen people having to eat their pets to stay alive.

Corbyn is a fan of Cuban's late dictator Castro, where you have to ask permission to change jobs, move house, go on holiday, and freedoms such as striking and protesting are illegal, and the only union is owned by the dictatorship.

Then there's Diane Abbott's defense of brutal Communist dictator Mao,, who's policies were a direct result in roughly 60 million deaths.

Or the ex Soviet Union, which Communist policies were the direct results in 39-52 million deaths.

I really cannot fathom why any decent intelligent people could possibly find any reason to vote for this extreme, left wing, anti-Semitic Labour Party.

And there I was thinking "RedEd" was dangerous!

Get. On. With. It

I don't know about you, but I have had my fill of watching MP's acting like spoiled brats, and to be honest, I have had enough of Brexit.

There isn't one side better than the other. The Tories are in just as much array as Labour are.

Labour is lead by a Brexiteer, but full of Remain MP's, and the Tories are lead by a soft Remain PM, who has tried her best to find the common ground, and failed of course, and won't help her, or the country out.

Here's my pledge to Mrs May. JUST LEAVE!!!

We voted, we knew what we were voting for, to leave the European Union. Why? Well because I can't stand to be lead by a misogynistic, drunk, unelected bureaucrat like Juncker.

MP's, you voted for Article 50 to be triggered, now respect it.

I don't care if you don't like it, I don't care if it's not what you want, it's what 17.4 million people want, and if not more.

Some of my extreme Remain friends would now vote leave because of the contempt you are treating the British people with.

And for those who say all Brexit voting people are racist. My friends of Indian, and Pakistani heritage voted to leave, what would you call them?!

So to the MP's, John Bercow, and the Prime Minister. Get on with it!! Otherwise you'll find yourselves all voted out of the job, and some new, possible more extreme parties will be made.

You're making the people angry, and that is one dangerous emotion to be playing around with

Deal or No Deal?

Theresa May, also my MP, has, I believe, done the best to get some sort of deal to leave the EU.

However, as she herself once said, "No deal, is better than a bad deal." And this deal is bad. Pro-EU and Brexiteers alike seem to think this.

So surely, you'd imagine, Mrs May would stick to her guns, and go through with no deal, and allow us and the EU to get deals sorted throughout the years?

Wee here lies the problem; it feels like parliament, and I don't care what colour rosette the pro-EU MPs wear, have done everything in their power to make sure we don't leave the EU, hence May getting such an awful deal, hence them making sure they can take no deal off of the table.

Extremely undemocratic, it shows that they have NOT listened to what the people, who voted them into parliament, want.

It shows the contempt that this parliament has for the people who without them, they would be in our position, ignored!

There also seems to be some people still wondering why people voted to leave. Unlike what LBC present James O'Brien would have you believe, not everyone who voted to leave did so because of immigration, but it did play a major part in reasons why, and here are some none racist reasons why:

People voted to leave because the EU was unwavering, as has been shown in the Brexit talks, on their stance of immigration, wanting to force us to take more, when majority of people were saying no.

People voted to leave because parties like Labour labelled you a racist when you voiced a small concern about immigration, remember Mrs Gillian Duffy? A Labour voter, labelled a "bigot" by then Labour Prime Minister Gordon Brown, because she asked a valid question about Eastern European immigration.

Also, it felt like anything bad that happened, our politicians, had a nice little caveat to fall back on. "That's not our fault, that is the EU." And are now wondering why there was a huge mandate to leave.

Agree to Disagree

I've been listening to Labour MP Jess Philips on LBC today, standing in for usual host James O'Brien.

The abuse from one caller got me quite upset for her, not because Jess can't handle it, or that is in anyway bothered by it, but because it was totally and utterly hypocritical criticism from one of her own constituents.

The constituent, named Anne, started off rather nicely saying how she voted for her, but then went into overdrive because Jess doesn't 100% back Jeremy Corbyn, and asked her why she remained within the Labour Party.

Firstly, the pure and utter cheek of it! Firstly, Jeremy Corbyn voted AGAINST the Labour Party over 500 times, it doesn't matter who was leading, he voted against his own party, were there calls for him to leave Labour? No.

I haven't asked this question in a few years, but here I go again; why is it principals when Corbyn voted against the Labour party, but backstabbing when it's done to him.

Corbyn himself has had the bare faced cheek to criticise the 8 Labour MP's who have left to form The Independent Group, to say they were unloyal. Again Mr Corbyn, you voted against your own party over 500 times, where was your loyalty?

Secondly, Corbyn has said that Shamima Begun should not have had her British Citizenship revoked, and that we should bring her back and support her, yet his Shadow Chancellor had written a letter calling for people fighting for the Israeli Government, or on behalf of the Israeli state should have their citizenship's removed.

The hypocrisy, and two facedness of this current Labour leadership is embarrassing, and to be honest, unsurprising, but I honestly don't understand how anyone with an ounce of dignity, or common sense can stand up for them!
