Do you ever wonder how these idiots get to run a country

Some of the powers that be are trying to stop people having the right to protest....police state?....see - Police mull banning all UK protests

Of course the student fee cuts, the following protests and provoked violence should be seen for what it is - completely engineered, because when hundreds of thousands protested against going to war....they were ignored anyway

So always ask yourself the question - Who really benefits from these situations.
the students? / the average tax payer? / the governement? / the bankers?

obviously the governement will continue to do everything it can to put and keep as many people in debt and slaving away for their entire lives, so they need to install the debt in people as early as possible

In the grand scheme of the country's debt (which is ficticious anyway and doesn't need to be there) and the cuts needed and the blah blah blah, someone at the Telegraph had this to say:

Student fee 'savings' will fund windmills in Africa

The £2.9 billion the Government will save by increasing tuition fees matches the amount earmarked for a global warming project, finds Christopher Booker.



The cause of the major political story of last week – the row over tuition fees, students rioting and all – was, as we all know, “public spending cuts”. But how much money does the Government actually hope to save on tuition fees? If the immediate problem is our massive state deficit, it seems odd that the Government should risk such unpopularity, not for any immediate saving, but in the hope that it will get the money back over the next 30 years, as students can afford to repay it.

In the short term, the Government’s own projection as to how much it will save is that the funding of university tuition will be cut by £2.9 billion by 2014. As it happens, £2.9 billion is the sum ring-fenced, by the same public spending review, to be given to developing countries to help them fight global warming with windmills and solar panels. It is also slightly less than the £3 billion by which our public debt is rising every week. These much-vaunted “cuts” are not all we are led to believe.

The interest charge on UK governement debt for 2010 is estimated to be £25 - £30 billion (some say £43b). (the Times and the Telegraph )

winter wonder woods

More to go up on the ALV site soon



it's been a while

Nothing else matters....

I've not really thought about it, but recent doings make sense when you consider the recent events.....its been a time for spending time with some of great and lovely people I know dotted around....most of it was already planned, but I managed to fit some extra visits in too

So, its been a busy few weeks and internet is not a constant due to the house move (which isn't entirely a bad thing)

Last week there was a fitting send off for Ben, a celebration of his life I think. Friends old and new with a feeling of appreciation for each minute together. A lesson for every


Mostly due to the Tse Qigong Centre, I'm spending nearly every weekend in London atm, which is simply city madness for a country bumpkin like me ;)

Tse Demo was sooo good, if you didn't go then you missed out, simple as, next one probably won't be for another 5 years, was an honour to be part of it.....hopefully I'll be asked again, maybe even for some hard qigong next time which would be rather exciting!

Got to join Volt BMX and friends for the Anthem II Premier.....trekked across on London on buses and trains on a foggy Sunday night but it was well worth it. Thanks to John and co for putting it on....just waiting for my copy now....go buy it, (pre-order here, expected any day now) it won't disappoint!

Got to see my bestest buddy and his family on the south coast last weekend, which was, as always THE BEST x

More Tse Centre stuff last Sunday too, and two meals of some of the finest Chinese food available in London and Birmingham with all many Tse Centre friends this coming weekend....going to be an awesome mega feast x2 :)

Oh yeah, I need to wish a good gent I know a long and happy retirement, he'll never read this but that doesn't matter, he's a good accountant, colleague and friend, have fun Tony, love to you and your family x

Have fun every day
