I think I have become an unwavering cynic in recent years. What happened to the political statesmen that used to be a part of all political parties? The current crop of politicians appear to be of the manufactured type, created in a ‘School for Politicians’, Gordon Brown excluded of course who probably learned his vocation at the ‘Circus Performers Academy’.

I have had a number of leaflets littering my doormat in the last few weeks, delivered in envelopes without a postage stamp and addressed to me. All these envelopes contained similar messages, pointing out the misdeeds of the opposition and how untrustworthy the other camp had proved to be in the expenses scandal. Mainly misinformation, nothing of value, nothing dealing with important issues, the ever spiralling debt problem and increasing flood of immigrants and asylum seekers that have overun the area I live in.

My problem with choosing where to place my ‘X’ on the ballot paper is I cannot really see one candidate that has any special qualities. Nothing that inspires trust or confidence in me to rush out and be happy in the knowledge, that whoever gets my vote will be working to better my future and that of the country.

The media don’t help in matters either, since the date of the election was announced, TV channels have been completely taken over by experts and highly paid guests, giving us a run down on how the personalities of the leaders of parties are affecting the polls. I might be missing something in these many interviews and opinions but I don’t see anyone actually telling us how they are going to get this country out of the shit.

Where are the manifestos and strategies for getting this country stable and moving in a manner that inspires the population?, where is the political leader who is somewhat different than the opposition, who could make us believe that the country is now going to be in safe hands. That is not happening in my blinkered view, instead I see a bunch of lily-livered careerists whose only interest is in self-interest and gaining power for self-advancement.

I do hope that someday this country will get a great statesman as a leader, someone that demands respect not only from the population of the UK but from the rest of the planet, surely to put yourself forward as a candidate to lead a nation such as Britain then you should be a person somewhat above the ordinary, a person with dignity, morals and the leaderships qualities to get this country back on track and out of the hands of the global bankers and parasites that are bleeding this nation dry. Someone that tells us that this country is going to change and we as a nation will no longer be a puppet for manipulators of world affairs and global control.

I have been absent for ages and ages, mainly because of my amateur geek status. I have to administer my forum as well as this blog, the forum is at:

http://www.brenttoday.co.uk/forums/index.php

Well administering a forum is ok, when it’s just editing abusive comments. It’s a different ball game when you get invaded by spammers and bots, sometimes 50 a day, registering and posting links to ‘Viagra and porn sites’. It’s then that amateur geeks like me get very stressed and bewildered, especially when I look for support and am told (by real proper geeks) to do this and that to the php coding, then I despair and pack it all in.

So that is what happened to me, I had to close the forum for nearly a year, because I was failing miserably to control this invasion of cyber bandits taking over my forum. It was very disturbing, I mean what the hell do they gain from it, exposure of zero on the forum as I was continually banning them and deleting their spam.

Now I am happy to say I defeated the bastards and updated security and tackled the problem, only took about 8 months to master the techniques. Now it’s time to start on this blog, since I have been absent, about three new versions have been made available and I need to install the latest one, the bad news is I just read the upgrade information and I am baffled again.

Oh well, I will take it slowly and read it 25 times, then maybe my feeble geeky mind might grasp the complexities of ‘MySQL’ and databases.

I would love to be a proper geek someday, it would certainly save me lots of hours scratching my head.

Bye for now.

I watched a TV programme the other night about what would happen if London was breached by the sea. The catastrophic results, similar to the New Orleans flooding would wipe out the Tube system for weeks if not months and cause unimaginable chaos.

What I found interesting was the enormous cost this act of nature would burden the people of this Island with - 50 Billion quid.

Now my point is, the Banking system of this country is costing us more than a catasrophic disater of gigantic proportions could.

In my opinion the Bankers of this country that are partly to blame for this countries current crisis, should never be allowed to work with money again, they should be put on the ‘Money Offenders List’ and only be allowed to work in jobs that dealing with money was not a requirement.

Also if those same bankers who are responsible for the hardship and troubles the British people have now to suffer, caused solely by the incompetence and greed of those money men entrusted to guard this countries assets, have the nerve to take bonuses from the bail outs given by the taxpayer to save their asses, they should be locked away in Prison for a very long time along with the other thieves, robbers and worthless scum that inhabit this planet.

I have a forum, internet forum that has not been active for some time. Last week I decided to resurrect it so I cleaned it up and opened it up for registration.

Since the last time I used it the cyber waves seem to have been overrun with ‘internet spammers’. These strange creatures seem to dwell in the former Soviet Union and Eastern Bloc, with a fair proprotion from China.

What they do is register on your forum and leave a link either in their profile or in a message they post. The link will probably point to a cheap viagra site or a sex site. What gain do these morons get for their efforts I ask, apart from being banned immediatley with there IP address listed with spam control sites.

The internet is a wonderful thing but it doesn’t take long for the scum of the world to begin infesting it.

I was always under the impression that the banking sector was a bastion of sober, dilligent fellows that held buckets full of money, all there just in case the country got into serious financial trouble.

What with bankers buying football clubs and Banks buying each other out on rescue deals while others go bust. Think I have lost faith somewhat in the capitalist dream. I am fortunate enough to be skint so all these shares losing value and billions wiped off the stock market, well quite frankly I couldn’t give a toss, hope it isn’t too painful on the unfortunate greedy bastards that might have to cut down on buying football clubs as hobbies.

“Two Championship footballers have been charged with burglary in connection with the theft of items from a Portsmouth nightclub.

Southampton Football Club striker Bradley Wright-Phillips, 23, and winger Nathan Dyer, 20, will appear before Portsmouth magistrates on 8 July”.

Not much hope of getting away with this as they were caught on CCTV. The young football superstars who flaunt their wealth in peoples faces, go buy flash cars and demand incredible wages from football clubs, without showing any loyalty to anyone. Don’t know about you, but I find them the most obnoxious group of people on the planet along with talentless celebrities.

My verdict send them to prison for two years, Southampton FC should sack them immediately and the Football Association should give them a 5 year ban from the game.

On the bright side, MPs were today revealed to be asking for a 21 per cent pay rise - worth £13,180.
Their demand caused outrage on a day the economy fell deeper into crisis, with inflation bursting its official ceiling to hit 3.3 per cent.

Well what do you know, us peasants have to stick to the rules when it comes to pay rises ask the firemen and nurses, yet MPs can have a vote on their pay on July 3, opting for an increase that makes a joke of their pay rise policies for the rest of the nation.

Not much about Brent today, can’t see anything happening though as I stare vacantly through the window.

Let’s see where was I up to in my moans about Brent, oh yes ‘Parking Permits’.

Well I can tell you for a fact that they haven’t come down in price, they haven’t gone up either. Everything else as though, food, petrol, cigs, beer, wiping your ass, the cost of soft toilet tissue risen by 30%, f88k you Sainsburys.

Cost of houses have fallen a bit, could end up less than three times what we can afford if the trend continues.

“More troops to Afghanistan”, Flash Gordon tells George Wya, we can afford it, money is no object to keep the Talaban from our beaches, they should apply properly like all the rest of the Terrorists do, through the immigration authorities we are a very obliging country when it comes to giving out social housing and British Citizenship to people that make the effort to learn our language.

Rant over, have a nice day.

Just been to buy some new ones - 100% increase since the last buy. I use these for workman that come to my place or for friends and family.

My street has never had a parking problem, Brent Council decided that to stop people from out of town parking and taking the tube into Central London the solution should be Residents Parking. So why are residents charged, when they could always park outside the house anyway?

Is the country now in the hands of untruthful, thieving crooks that masquerade as government spongers that reckon they are doing us a favour.

My opinion is, I would sack the lot of them and employ in their place the workforce that they sanctioned from amongst our new found friends (Eastern Europe), we could replace the council workers with minimum wage immigrants.

Long time since I posted on the blog, been unable to for months for reasons beyond my control. Surprised the site is still running and not been devoured by aliens. Well I am back and will begin to work on on the website and make it up to date.

Noticed a lot of new subscribers with the address of .ru, noticed also that no comments posted from the said subscribers, nothing personel but .ru addresses will be deleted as on my forum all users with from this IP are spammers.

Bye

I hate reading about Iraq and the alleged democratic government. If there is a god then the demons that caused the mess, mayhem, death and turmoil in the country should repent their sins right now. This is on par with Vietnam.

Mr Blair I reckon your to blame.
