The PM Glass Box. 6:59pm on 22 Oct 2009 As world Citzen Number 3 (well its going to be in book so it must be true - ask G W Bush and Tony Blair for the premise of this thought)I find what the BNP stands for abhorrent...considering that over the last 13 years most of my true friends have come from the so-called ethnic minorities...but I do wonder at times after reading for example Chris Huhne in the Guardain yesterday if I am living on a different Planet than most people....considering that he suggests that British values are 'moderation and tolerance' all I can say has this Man been a sleep for the last 30 years and more (racial hatred being wiped up in places like the West Midlands by you know who, for Votes) in this country and for a wider perspective read some-one like Mark Curtis (Web of Deceit) to really understand what the British Ruling Elite really stands for...over decades and centuries....

And to end their crimes once and for all let's support a great idea and let's make Seumas Milne the first President of a new Republic...in this country...well so-far he is the only man I have read who is telling the truth about the latest dispute at Royal Mail...(Guardian 22 October 2009 p, 37)..
A postal strike looms... 6:24pm on 21 Oct 2009 Leohawk needs to go to University and get Educated ...epecially in the Social Sciences...to understand how society is structured and 'who gains' the most out of this epoch in this current form and how they do it.....at-least Dave Ward is probably correct... in that the 3 millionaires (Adam Crozier paid 3 million last year) who he mentions have undermined the latest negotiations....but very good too hear Andy the postie suggest that part of this Plan (so it seems) is too make everyone part-time ...something I noticed working for RM in Bristol between 2001 and 2006...Loehawk also needs to understand that 'consumption property' and 'production property' is not the same thing...(Bilton et al 1987 - 2nd edition p, 56...
The PM Glass Box. 6:56pm on 19 Oct 2009 Eddie would you interview a fox after he had broken into a chicken house and had eaten the chickens to explain why the security should not be repaired....because in essence that all Kenneth Clarke is/was and still is a man who would not know what it is like doing a low paid crap job like working for Royal Mail...here or anywhere in the Universe...Here is a man who while working for BAT was paid 2000 pounds a week part-time while getting his pile from being a MP and other places. I should know because I worked for RM for 5 years part-time (week-end nights - 2110 2006) and it was not a very nice experience...and most weeks I worked 4 hours overtime to pick up a grand total of 300 pounds...Adam Crozier last year according to Private Eye (1247) picked up a million pounds with two bonuses and they made a profit of 321 million....interview the chickens next time Eddie before they get eaten...for the truth ....and not the Fox for a pack of lies....
The PM Glass Box. 8:14pm on 08 Oct 2009 What a shame that the Tories have never understood the Structural explanation of the epoch?....but then again perhaps some of them did watch when 'Boris met Dave'(More4 last night)...one of the best I have saw about these proceses in a long time...

Because I am sure that when I graduated with only a 2.2 ( BA hons - Social Science) about the same time as these two did, as a mature student... but then again I only had 6 years formal education and born below the working class in Port Stanley was lucky enough to get a phone call from Buck house too get my first job!!!!

Oh, but I did learn that Socrates according to Plato said that 'the unexamined life is not worth living' and the great Aristotle once wrote in the Ethics 'that when the Brutes take over society man is in real trouble'(paraphrasing him)...in recent times I would say about 1979...in this country..

The PM Glass Box. 7:37pm on 07 Oct 2009 When will someone start too tell the truth about the latest crisis.. which is nothing more than a Capitalist crisis of the social system...one of many over the last 300 years...so 'Labour's Job's crisis' and 'Labour's debt crisis'..is nothing of the sort and is never properly explained by the mass media and the Ruling Elite...especially by the Tories and the Rightwing press et al...who all keep this myth on-going...
The PM Glass Box. 8:32pm on 05 Oct 2009 Well done all bloggers so far...but we should never forget that the Tories were formed from the backlash against the French Revolution...and to my knowledge has never been compassionate or caring...even the so-called One Nation brigade only agreed with the 1945 reforms because it was the most Rational thing too do....at the time...

I should aslo note - that from what I heard on the Andrew Marr show on Sunday that David Cameron may have a Ist from Oxford but certainly does not understand a contradiction at the kernel of his answers......to Marr's questioning...

So in conclusion although I have many friends from different cultures in Bristol anyone who believes a-word the Tories says at this Conference or at any time is nothing but a big-lie and Myth: very much like the God one...that is the biggest of all...and a very dangerous one at that...
The PM Glass Box. 6:57pm on 28 Sep 2009 I also read Jed Mercurio book partly fiction partly fact about the American Adulterer (JFK) and enjoyed it and was not aware of some of the stuff he told us about President Kennedy - but if Gordon Brown has a mild health problem it is probably completely irrelevnnt to his duties as PM.... but can I ask him a very simple question what the hell has 'fair' and 'progressive politics' to-do with 18/19 ruthless Capitalism...some how I don't think they add up!!!...Especially if Cameron does come too power and according to this Sunday's Observer (p7) Labour may never recover from defeat ..one of the most frightening stories ever told in a newspaper in recent times...

But at long last we do now know... what new-Labour is all about if the Daily Telegraph (25th September 2009) is correst..which is this fact that Lady Vadera only wore silk underwear while at University and 'she was the ringleader of a rather bithcy group'...I presume that this is what separates the proles from the New Labour Project?

Brian V Peck..ex-prol...
The PM Glass Box. 6:44pm on 24 Sep 2009 'Nuclear disarmament' sounds like a very good/clear objective for the world but I don't believe a word of it...because let's face it - this is nothing more than the biggest bullies in the Playground telling one of the weakest too behave himself..we have the biggest sticks/bombs and you cannot have them and nothing more... ie; the Jewish State has at-least 200 Nuclear weapons but complete silence from the big boys in the playground...on this fact...And when I am on a very true rant...Gordon Brown gets a big prize from a well known 'War Crimminal' last night if Christopher Hitchens is correct and even Colonel Gaddafi is correct about several others that should be on trial, for their crimes...but what do we get from the Western mass media...'eccentricity, bloody-mindedness and exreme verbiage' about this man...the Guardian..
The PM Glass Box. 7:14pm on 25 Aug 2009 But Gordon did he do it?
Freeing the Lockerbie bomber. 11:31am on 21 Aug 2009 Having missed PM yesterday - I listened to it this morning on the Iplayer system and read all the remarks about Abdelbaser al-Megrahi being released and am amazed at the reponse that you have had on this tragic event. As I had written a few words down on paper to make about the event before reading all this wonderful blogs. There is very little else too say apart from the fact that when I was in Libya in September 1968 as a very young man in the RAF we were told by the CO that we were there because of the Oil and no other reason, as I remember it....Also we should never forget that the Americans tried too kill Gaddafi as well as MI6, before he became a new friend to the West so that they could exploit his Oil again..or the 'Fifth Freedom' as Noam Chomsky so correctly asserts...noting that I first read about the USA shooting down an Iranian aircraft and the Commander getting a medal for it in one of Chomsky's books...many years ago..

My wonderful old late Grandmother on my Mothers side was actual born in Scotland in about 1900 and went to the Falkland Islands on a troop ship (via South Africa) that were taking British troops to the Boar war...nothing seems too have changed ...does it!!!!
