Home Secretary Theresa May Shrugs Her Shoulders When The National Crime Agency Boss Says It’s ‘Unrealistic’ To Bring 50,000 Pedophiles To Justice

God’s Laws.

If you believe in God then the idea is that we follow God’s laws to the best of our ability.
His laws state, “Thou shalt not kill”.
And so everything should work around that.
Whether it’s about death penalties, abortions or anything else.
As with everything, it can be taken simply, just as the law is recorded.
Or you can look into it more deeply and look for exceptions and loop holes and such like.
But I would tend to go with the simple way that it is written, ‘Thou shalt not kill’.

Probably the biggest point here is that God sets our laws.
We don’t set His.
It’s the same way we work as parents and children.
Our children, certainly when they are young and learning, have a different set of rules to the parents.
The rules we set are there to protect and to help and to teach.
As our children grow into adults their rules change somewhat.
I would think God’s rules work much the same way.

I believe this life is a test for us, where we learn and grow, and God’s rules are there to protect and help us along the way.
After this life ends things change and no doubt there will be some changes to the rules too as we progress.

Mrs May’s Reintroduction Of Medieval Tyranny.

Perhaps the worst and most wounding for a British patriot is Mrs Theresa May’s plan to ban ‘extremists’ from the air-ways and the internet.
What is an extremist?
Why, anyone the Government says is one.
I might be one.
You might be one.

What joy this idea must have given the Chinese despots currently resisting peaceful demands for more freedom in Hong Kong.
I can just imagine the glee with which they will throw back any British protests at repression, by saying how much they admire Mrs May’s reintroduction of medieval tyranny into our penal code.
For this disgraceful outburst, Mrs May was praised as a possible future premier by choirs of sycophants.

But then we must come to that great streak of snake-oil and hair gel, the Prime Minister’s speech in Birmingham.
I confess I swore at the TV set several times, enraged by his sheer nerve.
His ostentatious wearing of a Help For Heroes wristband after needlessly prolonging the peril of British troops in Afghanistan was particularly repulsive to me.
I hope his endorsement did not harm that excellent charity too much, though I have never understood why wounded soldiers need to rely upon charity for their care.

Bill Clinton has called Jeremy Corbyn a ‘guy off the street’ and ‘the maddest person in the room’, a refreshing contrast to charismatic Bill himself who’s a sleazy old goat and the randiest person in any room.

Bread Is What Your Dad Gives You.
Airhead heiress Tamara Ecclestone claims she doesn’t know the difference between bread and toast.
Well, allow me to do what the teachers at your exclusive public school failed to do, Tamara, and educate you.
Bread is what your dad gives you and your hubby to entertain yourself with in your £45million mansion, while toast is what your marriage will be if daddy ever decides he doesn’t like the way your hubby is spending his bread.

‘Unrealistic’ To Bring 50,000 Pedophiles To Justice.

Keith Bristow, head of the National Crime Agency, expects that of the 50,000 Brits who have accessed vile pictures of kids being abused, it’s just ‘unrealistic’ to bring them all to justice.
Quite how many he will be able to track down then drag through our slow and cumbersome justice system isn’t clear.
Let us hope his officers can make it into double figures.

Yet the scandal seems to have been dismissed by Home Secretary Theresa May with a shoulder shrug while her cronies continue banging on about the EU.
There is no reason why every single one of the 50,000 people involved could not be actively pursued.
If the Home Office wanted to.

Rapes recorded by police have reached an all-time high of more than 22,000, up 5,000 to June (2014) on the previous year.
That is 60 attacks every day.

Home Ownership Plunges Under Conservatives.
The UK has dropped out of the EU top 20 for home ownership.
People who own their own homes has plunged from 70% in 2010 to 63.5%.
The figures now put the UK behind France, Holland and Luxembourg.
The number of households aged under 35 who own their own home is down 300,000 since 2010.
Yet home-owning households rose by a million between 1997 and 2010 under Labour.

The Callousness Of A Tory Councillor.

The trial of the man accused of Jo Cox’s murder brought back a story which summed up the callousness of many on the right.
Not long after her death, Tory councillor Dominic Peacock wrote on Facebook that he’d “just donated the steam off my piss to the Jo Cox appeal”.
He later apologised “unreservedly”, as they tend to do, which is shorthand for, oh Christ, I’ve been found out, it was a moment of madness, I’m not that kind of person, blah, blah, blah.
But which translates to being a heartless, get-orf-my-land individual who is only in politics for his own ends.
Peacock should have been stripped of office after writing that post.
But he still sits on Beverley Town Council, no doubt planning to let off a pile of steam at upcoming Christmas parties, while a far, far braver politician than he will ever be, is dead.

Half The Public Only Hear What Their Prejudiced Minds Want To Hear.

The Oxford English Dictionary has named “post-truth” as its Word of the Year and it’s an inspired choice.
If famous people were dying by the week in 2016, barely a day passed without a powerful one tossing another truth on the funeral pyre.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines the word as “relating to circumstances in which objective facts are less influential in shaping opinion than appeals to emotion and personal belief”.
Which translates as people in authority sussing that half the public only hear what their prejudiced minds want to hear so you can force-feed them as much fiction as you want.

The Wild, Psychedelic Rollercoaster Of 2016.
Judge Rinder has summed up the wild, psychedelic rollercoaster of 2016 in a few words: “We have had Donald Trump, we have had Brexit and next it could be Ed Balls”.
Imagine you had gone to sleep in May 2015 and woken up just now, 18 months later on a Saturday night.
President-elect Donald Trump is toasting Britain’s exit from the European Union with a grinning Nigel Farage in front of a set of gold doors.
David Bowie, Prince, Victoria Wood and Terry Wogan are dead.
The chocolate-space ratio in Toblerone has been radically altered.
And bizarrely, Ed Balls is no longer the Shadow Chancellor or even an MP, but is performing enthusiastic “dance” moves on television that suggest he has been fed one of those designer drugs that are bringing Britain’s prisons to their knees.
