CAMERON'S SPEECH ON EU'S MEMBERSHIP- Update 13 April,2013

PM DAVID CAMERON
UPDATE: 13 April, 2013 --  UK Prime Minister David Cameron is this weekend at the German Chancellor Angela Merkel's official country seat to hold further discussion about the EU membership. Will it make any difference? NO, apart from getting out of the EU it will be always more than costly which the taxpayers have to foot the bill and they are more than cash strapped. They are so badly off that a great majority have to decide whether to buy food or heat their homes.   It is a disgrace to cut down incomes and benefits to that extend. 

UPDATE:  25 January 2013 -  Well, well, well, Brussels really showing its teeth now.  They threatening  the UK to fine it a £250,000 a day because they haven't applied their full law on gas and electricity. According to the Department of Energy it would make the electricity and gas bills even higher. Or is it another story trying to justify another increase?

If any one still had any doubts about getting out of the EU they surely must change their opinion now. Furthermore, Brussels will also control the press and journalists will be fined heavily if they don't comply with their rules. Well, free press was always the mark of the Western World.

IT WAS NOTHING BUT A VOTE CATCHING SPEECH  AND FULL OF HOLLOW PROMISES.

The long awaited speech of David Cameron was finally delivered. Yet, there was nothing new in it. Everybody is aware that Mr Cameron does not want to get out of the EU.

He did make a great point about given the public the referendum they had been demanded for a long time but it is not the straight forward IN/OUT referendum. He still wants to sneak in his hopefully newly achieved condition. He still thinks he can persuade Brussels to give Britain back certain powers which they took off this country. He couldn’t have heard or listen to the announcement from Brussels that they will not do anything like that because otherwise all the other countries will demand changes in their rules as well.

Even after Merkel quickly reassured David Cameron that she will try and negotiate on behalf of Britain to change Britain’s mind not to exit the EU. The point here is that Merkel wants to keep Britain in the EU for not to lose the contribution and if necessary another bail-out. It is not only Merkel’s negotiation but the other 28 countries have also to agree. This makes it most unlikely. Furthermore, Merkel knows if Britain exits the EU others will follow.

However, whether Merkel, David Cameron or Mr Obama want to keep Britain in the EU or not it is the people who should have given the opportunity for a long time to decide.  The Conservative promised to give an IN/OUT referendum in their last election manifesto but as all their other promises it was not kept. It was promised again for March 2011 but again nothing happen.

The public elects a party to govern the country but it is the public’s wishes the leader supposed to carry out. It is wrong that David Cameron thinks Britain should be kept in the EU and therefore ignores the people’s wishes.

The speech today was a waste of ink, paper and time. The people knew his attention already and to tangle a carrot in front of the public’s noses about an in/out referendum but also with some included decision of new regulations and after the next election was all totally unsatisfactory.  The public is not that naïve any more when is David Cameron delivering a speech with concrete facts and stands by it?

People wanted an in/out referendum now and not after he signed another treaty soon for the next seven years. Brussels interfered enough with the Law and justice which cost a fortune on legal aid and benefit; with the fishery to throw dead fish overboard because it was already over the quota; to give French fishermen the right to fish in British waters; having to pay Child benefit for children not even living in Britain; fruit having to be unformed seizes and tonnes of fruit being wasted; and many more other crazy ideas and made law but the best is yet to come. Brussels plans to control the press and journalists will be find if they step over the rules.

BRITAIN GETS ALL THAT FOR ITS EU MEMBERSHIP WHICH COST A FORTUNE AT A TIME WHEN FAMILIES HAVING TO GO TO FOOD BANKS TO SURVIVE. 

The people want out of it and at the same time want to save the money since Britain is in an economic recession and yet David Cameron refuses.  This policy does not make sense.

WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON?

BORDER AGENCY IN THE NEWS AGAIN


UPDATE:  29 March 2013 -- At long last the government made plans to replace the Border Agency. Whether it will be an improvement needs to be seen. It took too long to make this decision and too much taxpayers' money had been wasted. The best thing would to return it to a state control.  Surely it must be cheaper and hopefully more efficient.

With all due respect and sympathy most of the private companies taking over from a government department have sooner or later a scandal.

Dr Reid the Home Secretary at that time stated already in 2006 that the Immigration and Nationality Directory which then changed over to the United Kingdom Border Agency was not good enough.

It clearly showed a complete failure. Today after six years it is completely out of control of our borders. The Home Affairs Select Committee found that the UK Border Agency has a case-loads comparatively to the population of Iceland.  This is a more than a shocking situation. It doesn’t even give the basic of competence. To put it into a figure it would be around 300,000 cases still to be dealt with.

Furthermore, the Independent Chief Inspector of Borders and Immigration stated the UKBA has no idea how many illegal immigrants had gone through the net and entered Britain.

The UKBA have only one choice. To let legal people enter Britain and stop illegal immigrants. Yet it can’t even cope with that. Now comes to the point that when the backlog hasn’t cleared by 31 December it will be forced to damp around 80,000 files. Now if that is not lunacy and no politics at all what is?  They might just as well open the borders and save the money paid to the UKBA.

There are now around 3milion immigrants in the UK admittedly such an influx must be a hard job to deal with but immigration is not going to slow down. It has to be dealt with efficiently and that is only by the UKBA st the moment.  Next year the EU opens its borders of Romania and Bulgaria which has about 29million people altogether. Most of them will come to Britain because the word is out that benefits are easier to get here.

Maybe the UKBA should cut its great numbers of directors and employ more workers.

TORIES PAID - NOT NHS - PRIVATE CONSULTANTS £5.8MILLION



PM DAVID CAMERON
Amidst the great austerity the Coalition finds £5.8million to pay consultants to finalise the Government’s controversial health reform. These consultants are not NHS consultants. They are from companies outside the NHS and employed by the government.

The firms which supplied the ‘consultants’ had given thousands of  “non-cash” donations such as advice staff and policy work - to the Conservative Party.

It couldn’t get any murkier.

It was revealed that the NHS watchdog Monitor has spent £10million. This is not the only a case of wasting great amount of money at a time when David Cameron trumpet continuously   A U S T E R I T Y and about the deficit which he blames Labour, Euro and even the harsh winter in 2010. Anything and anybody but miss-management.
==================================================
PLEASE BE SO KIND AND CLICK ON ADVERTS/  THANK YOU.
==================================================

From June 2011 till October 2012 Monitor spent £5.8million on consultants, plus £2million on outside staff and £1.6million on other “transition costs” what that means. We could have a few ideas.

Firms who will benefit are professional service outfits McKensey, paid over £2million, KPMG, £700,000; Deloitte £811,000; PriceWaterhouseCoopers £1.7million.

Deloitte has donated over £450,000 to the Conservative Party for office staff and policy work since 2001.
Regarding electoral commission figures KMPG has paid £635,000 in non-cash and PwC £545,000 in non-cash.

During April 2010 and May 2011 the watchdog did not pay for any consultancy but after that the bill increased tremendously since it organises the NHS reform which commission the local groups of GPs.

In the manifesto of the Conservative Party it was promised that "the NHS was save in our hands." Since the 2010 election there were straight away 7,000 nurses sacked and 52,000 basic operations cancelled.  A great record for telling such a blatant lie. This reorganisation nobody wants and no public would have voted for but it is only the beginning and by the time the Conservatives are through with it and feathered everybody of their supporter’s nest it will cost the taxpayer billion of pounds.

WELL  IT  IS  THATCHERISM  ALL OVER  AGAIN.

PRIVATE SECURITY GEOAMEY DATA STOLEN


Private security giant GEOAmey guards transporting hundreds of dangerous criminals wherever. These guards are at risk after a laptop containing sensitive personal information had been stolen.  The company warned the 795 staff of the theft. Unfortunately, the laptop contains passport, driving licence, bank account numbers, work history and the names, addresses of their family members.

This must have been an awful shock and will be a scare for a long time.

The company has a contract with the government to escort criminals to and from the courts. The Information Commissioner fined, most properly, the firm up to £500,000. 

One of the guards spelled out the danger. He stated that some criminals could attack him and/or his family because they have all the details. But as always the company plays it down and a spokesman pointed out that their employees had been given advice on how to protect themselves and their family just in case somebody might take revenge for whatever reason.

Well, hopefully they have given the security guards a more reassuring help. This statement above does not sound like it.  It must be awful to have to earn your money with dealing the worst kind of human beings and then finding yourself in a situation as that without any fault of yours.
