Some times you just have to wonder
Sometimes I just do not understand the thought processes of some of our fellow subjects here in our wounded Country.
Every day, through sites like UKTabloid and the British National Party The Truth is put out for people to read, think about and help them form an opinion.
Look at the work done by Michael Barnbrook, a retired police officer who has worked tirelessly in exposing the corruption of the politicians who rule over us in the name of Brussels.
Not because he wanted to score political points for the BNP but because, quite simply, corruption in our leaders is wrong. It undermines what is left of our democracy.
Mr Barnbrook was instrumental in bringing down the corrupt MP Derek Conway, the man whose son, nicknamed, Queen Sloane wore a t-shirt with "F**k off. I'm rich" to a party the day the news of his fathers misdeeds broke. Rich at our expense.
Then our own intrepid searcher for the truth, revealed the shenanigans of the Speaker of the House, Michael Martin who is currently heading an inquiry into MPs' expenses. One must ask. Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
The question is put to Socrates, "Who will guard the guardians?" or, "Who will protect us against the protectors?". Plato's answer to this is that "They will guard themselves against themselves. We must tell the guardians a noble lie. The noble lie will inform them that they are better than those they serve and it is therefore their responsibility to guard and protect those lesser than themselves. We will instill in them a distaste for power or privilege, they will rule because they believe it right, not because they desire it."Well, Speaker Martin obviously did not buy into the noble lie. He is in it to fill his pockets.
So you see. The truth is out there for all those who seek it. For those who do their own research. It is like a blinding light. Unless of course you choose to be blind, like the blog writer Graham Pointer who is the one I am wondering about. He had this to say with regards to the investigation int The Speaker.
And Martion himself is under investigation by John Lyon, the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards, over an alleged misuse of "Air Miles".Sometimes I just despair. I read once, an article by a former Russian Communist who said that the only person who really understood the truth of communism, was the one with the gun pressed against the back of his head, as he knelt before an open grave. Let us pray it never comes to that.
However, I should point out that the allegation was brought by the British National Party, who for reasons best known to themselves are making allegations left, right and centre against MPs. I am of the opinion that if an allegation is made by the BNP it should be rejected immediately. Whatever the BNP are up to, it cannot be good for the people of Britain.
