Lies, damned lies and Iain Duncan Smith’s “statistics” | Blog | False Economy
After a week free of blogging due to manic activity getting ready for the hugely successful London Labour Housing Group Policy Conference on Saturday, that all-too-common feeling of outrage descended on me again this morning whilst watching a BBC News 24 report on the start of the total benefits cap in 4 London boroughs.
I love the BBC but sometimes it is just crap.
So, they tell us with no
hint of contradiction that the £500 cap is the same as the average
worker receives; it affects 40,000 households, and over 8,000 people
have already taken up work ‘because of the cap’.
Minister John Hoban
then trots out the same guff in interview without a hint of
contradiction.
So let’s be clear. All of the ‘facts’ that the BBC dutifully reported
are, at best, controversial and, at worst, downright misleading...

Social Investigations: NHS privatisation: Compilation of financial and ve...
This represents the
latest list of recent or present financial links between
parliamentarians and individuals or companies involved in private
healthcare.
The list is up-to-date as of March 2nd 2014. Another list will be drawn up prior to the election. The previous list is representative of who had these interests when they voted on the Health and Social Care bill, helping it become Act.
MPs and Lords are able to vote on legislation, even when they have a direct financial interest. This happened with the Health and Social Care Act, which saw the NHS being forced into a world of an external market. The legislation was written for industry, by industry and is part of the overall plan for it's demise and the eventual takeover by private health insurance companies.

The legislation was written for industry, by industry and is part of the overall plan for it's demise and the eventual takeover by private health insurance companies.
Not our words, but those of Oliver Letwin and John Redwood in their 1988 publication for the Centre for Policy Studies, 'Britain's Biggest Enterprise.'
The rules are not fit for purpose, it is not enough to simply register your interests and then vote as you like. Local councillors must abide by a stricter regime, which is imposed on them by parliament. Why should we the public be placed in a position whereby we have to take the politicians word for it that despite their interest, their vote was in the best interest of the public? It is time, that parliament ended this hypocrisy.
What point are the rules, if there is no punitive action when they get broken. The committees made up of parliamentarians, decide the punishment of themselves. When a serious wrongdoing is committed, all that is often handed down, is a suspension, whiles they are able to remain on as an MP, before being able to return to the fold. Resignations mean nothing to parliament, but a great deal to a public who rightfully see our political elite as a law unto themselves.
So, when an opportunity came for the public to receive more power in the form of a 'Recall', the government failed utterly to introduce it. The message this gave, was that we do not trust you with more power, especially that, which will hold our elected representatives to account.
The list below, which is by no means totally complete, highlights the various interests in healthcare. They are of varying significance with some persons being the sole owners of companies, chairman, directors, advisers, consultants, shares, you name it. What this list should do is act as a catalyst to reform. Many of those on the list are attached to companies that have financially gained from the changes made possible by the new Health Act, which in turn was made possible by their vote.
The list has gone out far and wide, although largely ignored by the mainstream media. Therefore it is up to us all to spread this list as far and as wide as possible.

2. Lord
Ashton: Conservative - Shares in Marsh Inc insurance brokers and in Zurich
Financial Services AG - In a review for
the Department of Health of the NHS litigation Authority - written by Marsh
Inc, it recommended involving opening up clinical negligence cover over to
private insurers. Zurich Financial Insurers said they didn't have the expertise
but the Marsh review envisaged
opening up a dialogue which might eventually give them the information
they needed. The DoH unsurprisingly accepted the large majority of Marsh's
recommendations. Lord Ashton also has shares in a private dental company called
Smilepod Hygiene Ltd.
3. Lord Bell:
Conservative - Chairman of Chime Communications Group, whose companies include
Bell Pottinger, and whose lobbying clients include Southern Cross, BT Health
and AstraZeneca. Tim Bell has a conviction for ‘wilfuly, openly and obscenely’
exposing himself ‘with intent to insult a female’ under Section 4 of the 1824
Vagrancy Act. For more on this delightful personality, which bears little
relevance to the NHS but says so much about the character click here. If
that isn't enough then please click here
to see their attempts to work with the Ubekistan dictatorship.

Nine Years.
Tis 9 years today since my ex partner died.
Boy that heaped shit on shit.
A lie told to the wrong person and so many lives changed so painfully.
I have posted my feelings of frustration round her family, the law, the family courts (a definite misnomer) and a couple of old friends.
It is the reason I began blogging...
The blogs moved on and took off in another direction.
As, thank god, did i.
Once more, my daughter is a few miles down the road.
Unreachable...
Heartbreaking.
And still some people revel in their shit stirring.
No healing not even thought, just more spewing of crap and gossip.
Repeating a lie...with such glee !(?)
Nine years ago, i got a text from my daughter, a phone call and then the sound of it being ripped out of her hand and hung up.
The last time i heard her voice.
I became so very angry then so saddened by it all.
I look around me and i am honoured by the friends i have.
Against me - liars, bullies, abusers and nonces.
Your words and deeds would be contemptible to my ex.
She would not have supported abuse and imagine her horror at the kiddie porn ?
I am just disgusted i once knew you all.
