Don’t Despair Kids!

Despairing at more Hackney teen-aged violence - and yet wondering if maybe, just maybe there might be some twisted justice in the world after all?

Wondering if your home’s going to be repossessed or you’re going to be able to put food on the table AND pay your bills?

I can’t fix it, but some people in the States think they know a guy who can!

Love, Labour’s Lost

Some Hackney friends don’t appear to be taking the news very well.

Tsk.

Hackney Labour Groupthink In Action: Whites Only Swim On The Cards?

Stoopid is as stoopid does: Flying in the face of common-sense and a clue, Hackney’s own swimming pool Stalinistas bring new meaning to the initials, “PC”.

And Hackney Labour wonder why people voted for Boris.

The Lawsuit Gone Too Far

From our “you couldn’t make this shit up” department, we give you the lawsuit to end all lawsuits. And people want to blame the lawyers…

 

 

 

Anyhoo, PC Bitseach and I have been voting. Coming, as I do, from a country where people tend to vote for the (wo)man rather than toe a strict party line, and given that I don’t love any of the candidates, I have to say that I didn’t finally commit myself until I was stood in the booth this evening.

While it is very non-u to disclose for whom one has voted, I will say that I based one vote solely on the basis of that candidate’s hilarious excoriation of Luke Akehurst on a blog.

Who says bloggers don’t make a difference?

Oh Dear, Abu Part Deux

Oh how we laughed!

Trevor Brooks aka Abu Issatwat (sorry Izzadean) and his little pals are going down for terrorist fundraising and inciting terrorism overseas.

So long, Trev. Have a great time in the pokey. With love from all of your Hackney pals.

Power to the People

It appears that the Boycott Nandos people are mounting their last stand against Richard Midda. Their objective is to block Nando’s application for an alcohol licence. Given the number of pubs and licenced restaurants on Church Street already, all I have to say is, “good luck with that”.

My question is: What do you really hope to achieve? The Vortex is gone and not coming back. Richard Midda isn’t obliged to rent the premises out to your “business co-operative” or anyone of your choosing. Your victory, if any, will be pyrrhic. If not Nandos, it will be another big hitter who can afford Midda’s rent. Simple as that.

Sorry.

Why Does Every Jihadi Gang Have At Least One Guy From Stoke Newington In It?

For the deluded who think the regular exploding jihadi plots are Bush Co fear spin, we give you the guys responsible for the reason you can’t bring a drink or toiletries over 100 MLs in you hand luggage.

If no one else has said it, allow me to be the first: Thank you to the Metropolitan Police for saving countless lives, again.

Spring Snow On The TS Stoke

Click on the above to see some Stoke Newington Easter snow. It also is a reminder that the TS Stoke on Church Street used to be home to the Stoke Newington Sea Cadets.

In one of their top-ten idiotic moves, the friend of children and “the people”, Jules & Co’s Hackney Labour pulled the rug out from under the cadets and tried to sell the TS Stoke to developers in 2005.

The cadets moved to Islington. And the TS Stoke? It sits abandoned and presumably still owned by Hackney Council.

Liberals Turning A Blind Eye

I seems like only yesterday I was getting lectured by liberals about British Muslim women’s “freedom” to choose.

In fact, just the other day, I was told that harping on about “women’s issues” was a bit like black people revisiting Selma, Alabama.

Hello, wake up call! How many more women and little girls do these “liberals” want to sell down the river with cultural relativism?

If the police and social workers had only listened to 12-year-old Ruksana when she told them her father had threatened to send her to Pakistan to be married against her will, then she says life might have been very different.

But they did not take her seriously, she says. She ended up in a foreign country and married to a violent partner who raped her and made her pregnant, aged 15.

Even the BBC cannot resist watering down the truth. Hello! “Violent partner?” 15 year old girls don’t have “partners”. Try, “violent stranger” or “owner”.

And Rowan Bloody Williams wants more sharia? Here’s a thought: how about we stop pandering to people’s “cultures” and give everyone in this country the benefit of the rule of law and equality?

And how about waking up to the fact that people don’t accede to subjugation: they are forced.

And I am sick unto death of the honour killings, the forced marriages and the veil.

As Tammy Bruce said: -

“The American feminist movement has not taken one stand to support the women of Iraq, the women of Afghanistan, the women of Iran.”

Sing it, sister.

Don’t feel too bad, Tammy: The British feminist movement hasn’t bothered to lift a finger for Muslim women on British soil either; they’re quite happy to turn a blind eye to domestic violence, rape and murder. Hey, it’s their culture.
