Happens regular in N.Shields. except on thursdays when it a queue outside the P.O. now thats depressing! -
Well the majority of the country backed the tories for 3 long terms, even after the miners strike. Bastard this democracy lark for the dyed in the wool socialists. They never got 50% in a General Election, did they? Or hardly any support in the North, Scotland, or Wales. did it make any difference to the end result tho?

Is it just me or should this woman be locked away for her own good? "We are not your weapons – we are women By Amanda Kijera, civic journalist and activist in Haiti Two weeks ago, on a Monday morning, I started to write what I thought was a very clever editorial about violence against women in Haiti. The case, I believed, was being overstated by women’s organizations in need of additional resources. Ever committed to preserving the dignity of Black men in a world which constantly stereotypes them as violent savages, I viewed this writing as yet one more opportunity to fight “the man” on behalf of my brothers. That night, before I could finish the piece, I was held on a rooftop in Haiti and raped repeatedly by one of the very men who I had spent the bulk of my life advocating for. It hurt. The experience was almost more than I could bear. I begged him to stop. Afraid he would kill me, I pleaded with him to honor my commitment to Haiti, to him as a brother in the mutual struggle for an end to our common oppression, but to no avail. He didn’t care that I was a Malcolm X scholar. He told me to shut up, and then slapped me in the face. Overpowered, I gave up fighting halfway through the night. Accepting the helplessness of my situation, I chucked aside the Haiti bracelet I had worn so proudly for over a year, along with it, my dreams of human liberation. Someone, I told myself, would always be bigger and stronger than me. As a woman, my place in life had been ascribed from birth. A Chinese proverb says that “women are like the grass, meant to be stepped on.” The thought comforted me at the same time that it made me cringe. A dangerous thought. Others like it have derailed movements, discouraged consciousness and retarded progress for centuries. To accept it as truth signals the beginning of the end of a person–or community’s–life and ability to self-love. Resignation means inertia, and for the past two weeks I have inhabited its innards. My neighbors here include women from all over the world, but it’s the women of African descent, and particularly Haitian women, who move me to write now. Truly, I have witnessed as a journalist and human rights advocate the many injustices inflicted upon Black men in this world. The pain, trauma and rage born of exploitation are terrors that I have grappled with every day of my life. They make one want to strike back, to fight rabidly for what is left of their personal dignity in the wake of such things. Black men have every right to the anger they feel in response to their position in the global hierarchy, but their anger is misdirected. Women are not the source of their oppression; oppressive policies and the as-yet unaddressed white patriarchy which still dominates the global stage are. Because women–and particularly women of color–are forced to bear the brunt of the Black male response to the Black male plight, the international community and those nations who have benefitted from the oppression of colonized peoples have a responsibility to provide women with the protection that they need. The United Nations, western women’s organizations and the Haitian government must immediately provide women in Haiti with the funding that they need to build domestic violence and rape crisis centers. Stop dividing Black families by distributing solely to women, which only exaggerates male resentment and frustration in Haiti. Provide both women and men with job training programs that would allow for self-sufficiency as opposed to continued dependency on whites. Lastly, admit that the issue of racial integration might still need addressing on an international level, and then find a way to address it! I went to Haiti after the earthquake to empower Haitians to self-sufficiency. I went to remind them of the many great contributions that Afro-descendants have made to this world, and of their amazing resilience and strength as a people. Not once did I envision myself becoming a receptacle for a Black man’s rage at the white world, but that is what I became. While I take issue with my brother’s behavior, I’m grateful for the experience. It woke me up, made me understand on a deeper level the terror that my sisters deal with daily. This in hand, I feel comfortable in speaking for Haitian women, and for myself, in saying that we will not be your pawns, racially, politically, economically or otherwise." http://blogs.alternet.org/speakeasy/2010/0...s-we-are-women/?

General Election 2010: Leaders divided on alien invasion Michael Deacon has grilled our political leaders on how they plan to tackle earth's imminent annihilation by aliens. Aliens almost certainly exist – and if they visit Earth, they're unlikely to be very nice to us. So says Stephen Hawking. It's widely agreed that Professor Hawking knows quite a lot about space. Bearing this in mind, I suspect I speak for all right-minded people when I say OH DEAR GOD WE'RE ALL DOOMED. Can our political leaders save us? I asked them for their thoughts. David Cameron "We mustn't fear change. I believe in change for Britain. Change for families. Change for schools. And – why not? – change in the Earth's dominant species. "Last week I was on Neptune and I met a 4.7million-year-old being who had served on an intergalactic warship for 6.2million years. And he told me that, after millennia of human government, Earth needed to take a new line on immigration. "Namely, that we let his people in so they could turn us all into slaves." Nick Clegg "Thank you, Michael, for your brilliant question. "When these beings attack our planet, the parties will have to accept that and work together for a fairer universe. If we get a hung parliament, the world won't end. "Well, unless the aliens blow it up with massive lasers or something." Gordon Brown "I agree with Nick. Or possibly David. Or possibly King Zargon the Great, Overlord of Jupiter." Nick Griffin "Once again, we see the political elite throwing open our borders to illegal aliens. "These life forms will undercut British wages. They'll demand fewer workers' rights. And they'll work longer hours because they've all got 17 arms. "Yesterday, campaigning in Barking, I barely saw an indigenous Brit. It was a sea of green faces. Honestly, it was like leafleting on bloody Mars." Alex Salmond "As Earth faces destruction, there is one question, above all others, that must be addressed. "What does it mean for Scotland? "It is a democratic disgrace that, during their preparations to destroy our planet, the aliens have not sought to include the governing party of Scotland in their discussions. I hereby launch an urgent appeal for a £50,000 'fighting fund' with which the SNP can mount a legal challenge against these aliens, and demand fairness for Scotland in their efforts to annihilate mankind."
