NATO Proxies behind Syria Massacre


"There鈥檚 ample evidence from official statements from the Arab League observer mission, from the Israeli media, that there are terrorist organizations involved in killing civilians and this, in a very cynical mode, provides the justification for the so-called international community to blame Bashar al-Assad when in fact these civilian casualties were ordered by foreign forces."

"And David Cameron and Barack Obama shoot the breeze while watching college basketball players shoot hoops. They seem best pals - but why aren't the Tories more pally with the American right?"

Because three out of the four GOP candidates have openly stated that they want war with Iran?

(oh!, and of course, we are not allowed to mention the 4th candidate on here)

"Plus we speak to Sir Michael Wilshaw, the chief inspector of schools, ahead of his first biannual report on the state of our education system. There have been alarming recent reports about literacy and numeracy standards in Britain, so what will the man charged with setting and monitoring school standards do about this?"


Where are the locations in the UK that have alarming levels of literacy and numeracy? Could they be in inner city areas (like London) where most newly arrived immigrants are located?

This is what someone else wrote on these blogs about the same subject a while ago...

"Briefly, the US and EU populations are changing demographically, i.e.
genetically, as a function of long-term differential and dysgenic fertility (the birth rates in different sectors basically). There are more births in the lower cognitive part of the distribution and less in the higher part of the distribution. Educating females and their working professionally has accelerated this as it delays motherhood - note this did not happen till the 60s, female liberation is thus subversive. Given the high correlation between general intelligence and SES (and thus GDP) this had led to national decline in the liberal democracies. As it is genetic, it can't be rectified by pouring in money e.g. by teaching, as one can't raise intelligence by education, one can only equip it.

Intelligence is bred. Most people can't grasp this. It is too radical for libertarians who ironically are natural Lysenkoists. When you do grasp this, you will see that I have in fact covered all this above, but it's been missed because of erroneous assumptions by readers. Most people will miss it, or say they don't believe it, but they will just be reporting their erroneous beliefs without knowing this."

And this...



"Thus the decade following the First World War was characterised by evolutionary and, especially eugenic thinking. Indeed, when William Beveridge (a life-long supporter of the Eugenics Society) was appointed Director of the London School of Economics in 1919 he resolved to bring about the "application of biology to human society" by the creation of a Department of Social Biology. The syllabus for the proposed Department was outlined by Beveridge as: "Instinct in Man, Inherited and Acquired Characteristics, Quantity and Quality of Populations and Racial and Economic Tests of Fitness ....
In making "quantity and quality of populations" central to his proposed new academic discipline, Beveridge was acknowledging what had now bec

In making "quantity and quality of populations" central to his proposed new academic discipline, Beveridge was acknowledging what had now become a matter of general, and not merely eugenic concern: the problem of differential fertility. Nor was this concern confined to those on the political "right". Beveridge鈥檚 own Chairman of Governors at LSE, Sidney Webb, speaking for the Fabian Society, had told the National Birth Rate Commission in 1917 that rates and taxes fell most heavily upon the classes who should have most children but presented no impediment to "the thriftless and irresponsible, the reckless and short-sighted of all grades" with the result that "the community now breeds fastest from its least desirable stocks" . And Karl Pearson, a Fabian with Marxist economic leanings, claimed that the most fertile sector of the population produced fifty per cent of the next generation . The much delayed publication, in 1923, of the results of the 1911 Fertility of Marriage Census showed that, despite increasing resort to birth control by successive marriage cohorts since 1870, there was a persisting social class differential in birth rates. The problem was now officially recognised. It was also set to music. "There鈥檚 nothing surer", ran the lyrics of one of the most popular songs of the early 1920s, "The rich get richer and the poor get - children" .




Throwing money at this problem won't achieve anything.

Why isn't big business investing in UK plc and what can the chancellor do about it in next week's budget?

No doubt a specially selected panel will be convened to ''discuss" or maybe simply a 'guest' to analyse?

If not this...

Guessing the Recruiter won't be invited on the panel.

'so what will the man charged with setting and monitoring school standards do about this?'

Guessing 'Education, Education, Education' won't be the main topic after all these years, either?

Unsurprisingly, the opposite effect (to dumbing down) is happening at the other end of the spectrum鈥�

The rise of the overclass



Murray exposes how the new United States upper class, which he labels a 鈥渃ognitive elite鈥�, has developed an hereditary stranglehold over the top professions and management positions. The brightest people tend to marry each other, then ensure that their offspring get to the best schools and universities, with the result that, to quote Murray: 鈥淭he parents of the upper-middle class now produce a disproportionate number of the smartest children.鈥�

A QUESTION FOR THE "COGNITIVE ELITE" (#7)

Does cleverness equate to wisdom?

Why isn't big business investing ... whoa ... stop right there.

The truly relevant question is why are'nt small and medium sized (SME) enterprises investing?

SME's are the real engine of the economy in England, despite the almost unbeliveable fact that SME's have obstacle after obstacle placed in their way by the 'officialdom' in all its malignant guises.

I have been to Canada on business and the attitude of the authorities there towards SME's is diametrically opposite to what we have here in England, where SMEs are almost despised by officialdom.

Want to know why there is very little real economic growth in England?

Then look no further.

Newsnight cannot be bothered or is it just assumed?

Sir Michael Wilshaw, the chief inspector of schools FOR ENGLAND ONLY.

Newsnight asks why aren't the Tories more pally with the American right?

Answer - because they do not want to be associated with losers.

However, in the next but one US Presidential election, the Republicans will put up a much stronger field of possible candidates, so then the Tories may be more pally.

Simple really.

To the Newsnight team:

IT ISN'T UK PLC!!!!!!!!!!

I know that Peston uses this description regularly, but he's wrong. "UK plc" gives a totally false impression of what a country is all about, and panders to a certain political agenda based on an untruth. Apart from anything else, a PLC can "downsize" and get rid of surplus staff. The possible means for downsizing a country's population are normally frowned upon in the civilised world.

Another point is that companies regularly go bankrupt and are liquidated - the factory becomes empty or even demolished, and the workforce disappears. As, say, the history of Argentina shows, this does not normally happen with countries.





So please Auntie Beeb, stick to information and not misinformation!

On Tonight's programme we'll be inviting Chucka Umunna to join us in sneering at George Osborne.
Then we'll be joined by Stephen Twigg who'll be helping us sneer at Michael Gove and implying that Gove solely is responsible for the failure of education policy that has led to illiteracy, innumeracy and unemployabllity of British youth.
Later we'll be sneering at Cameron and Obama and insisting that everything they do and say is programmed, cynical and insincere and nothing about them is genuine (because we tend to judge other people by our own behaviour).

@14 addendum. In fact, "Why isn't big business investing in UK plc ...?" is a loaded question which assumes a falsehood*. It is on a par with "Have you stopped beating your wife yet?"

* At least one falsehood actually, given the recent news from Nissan in Sunderland:

Sasha #16

Jaguar Land Rover has just announced big investment in its Halewood ( former Ford Escort ) plant on Merseyside with the creation of an alleged 1000 new jobs, although the GM Astra factory at Ellesmere Port is still under threat of closure. It would appear that the bulk of the parts for the assembly of the Astra come from eastern Europe, with other basic parts from China and the USA. Although labour costs are lower than in the rest of GM plants in Europe I suspect that transport costs could be the deciding factor. They were planning an electric Astra but it would appear to have been still born, as perhaps the fact that Nissan's Leaf has only sold low hundreds what's the point. However, both Nissan and LRJ must know that the end of the Co2 Climate Scam is about to implode on its own intellectual dishonesty, and perhaps only a matter of time before a key political player seriously suggests repealing the 2008 Climate Change Act ! ( Could the 2015 election be fought on it ? )

@17 "the DRIVEN-HALF-MAD-ALREADY LICENCE-PAYER"

I know how you feel Barrie.

Seeing official (and unofficial) misinformation all the time is very bad for my temper and inner peace. There are far too few sources one can trust. I would love to give up news (and this blog) and go to a place "where life is beautiful all the time".



But to end on a more hopeful note, this always makes me feel better, even if it is only a fantasy - and I do love Tchaikovsky!

I'm sorry Nolly, I don't agree with you on the climate issue, although I do think that lots of policy doesn't make sense. For example, there is no point in limiting carbon emissions in the UK or EU whilst importing vast amounts of goods made with dirty coal energy from China. At the very least we should put a suitable import tariff on such imported goods. In fact, given the unfair nature of trade with China due to their quasi slave labour practices and currency manipulations, I would go much further.

However, science isn't democratic, and to understand of the complexities of the climate issue, you need to grapple with some thermodynamics. In particular, it is important to consider entropy and phase change issues.

The link below is to my provisional considered opinion. I'm sure you won't like it, but agree or disagree, you and I approach issues from a different angle. I DON'T have the answers, but I know enough to know how difficult the questions are.

Sasha #20

I WAS ONCE A WARMIST ! ( back in the early 1990s )

Perhaps the main problem facing our future democratic freedom here in the UK is that most of the key political players are mostly " so far up their own self important backsides " that they can never admit their ideological mistakes. I suppose the above scenario applies just as much to teachers and other alleged well educated people who pushed the Co2 Climate scam all those years, its all part of the quasi-religion ?

I TOO WAS A WARMIST (Nolly and Sasha)

But once I began to AWAKEN to just how 'unbelievably' corrupt and perverse the influential individuals, on this benighted planet, have become, my starting point for all 'truth' is to presume it hides a lie.

Ironically, whether the CO2 component of the (accepted) greenhouse effect is high or low, the HUMAN PERVERSITY FACTOR IS ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE GREATER. So emit and be damned/blessed; we ordinary folk CAN NO MORE REIN-IN OUR MADMEN THAN WE CAN THE CLIMATE.

Change is coming - it has to. Not Dave's idea of change, something more fundamental, that poor Dave can ever tap into. Those who have the vision to surf a tsunami might find 'high ground'. With luck, the Daves will not make it . . . I too love Tchaikovsky

Sasha #20 again

I did read your link but your alleged not qualified but said to be well swatted up guy who wrote the link perhaps foolishly went on to mention VENUS, which totally undermines his argument. Perhaps he has not noticed that Venus is far closer to the SUN than the earth and therefore expects to be far hotter due to the closer proximity of the Sun's radiation source. Anybody who was brought up with a coal fire or for that matter one of the old type radiant gas fires knows full well that if you move away from it gets far cooler !

There is also no point putting import tariffs on stuff from China since it could hurt our economy more if companies like LRJ lose their key growing export market. Oh nearly forgot to mention that we have already lost the wings for 42 Airbuses due to the stupid EU Co2 trading rules on international airlines !

Have you taken your (legitimate) complaint to the court ECHR?

No. My gut instinct is that, just as the EU generally stitches us up DIRECTLY, it is probable that, in matters of Westminster law-braking, EU has no power (competence) hence an INDIRECT stitch-up of the ordinary man.

Who of you believe the faux debate on NN tonight?

Michael Wilshaw pontificating about the teaching of reading. This from a man whose career was made in secondary not primary education. A history teacher before headship. What does he know? Just a darling of the Tory party is sufficient qualification I suppose.

In years past children were not dealing with computer games, 24 hour TV, iPhones, mp3, etc., parents both working or not working at all. They weren't constantly measured and teachers weren't constantly nagged at by people with political axes to grind.
Speech on public media is poorly constructed and no example to young viewers.
The growing awareness of insufficient employment feeds back into motivation in schools. We were told some years ago that 'We are educating our young people to have aspirations we cannot satisfy' the wording may not be exact but that is the general idea. We used to ration grammar school access with 11 plus and few of those went to university. We also undervalue manual work and our advertisers dangle lifestyles beyond the reach of many people and deliberately try to create dissatisfaction. The mish mash of messages has no coherence so whatever develops can be declared wrong.

None of this 'cult of the personality' stuff is appropriate for a state manager like Cameron - it is monarch-stuff, that is to say: pointless except 'in and of itself' (going forward, in the dumb-space, this hour).

This personal posturing, by cipher MPs, and super-cipher PMs, is inimical to the fundamental tenets of democracy/representation/service. Next time Emily leaps on a guest, make it a politician (preferably Despot Dave) and make the question: WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?

Perhaps reading became less attractive to children when it was decreed it should be called "literacy skills", the sort of thing a robot might be programmed to do.
