Labour Farming Shadow Minister - Treat Meat Eaters Like Smokers!

Labour's Shadow Farming Minister, Kerry McCarthy an ardent vegan, has announced that meat eaters should be treated like smokers.

Expected NHS poster - Not all bad then!

 It is expected that, if Labour win power at the next General Election the following policies will be put into place:

• A Meat Tax will be put into place which will be revised each year in the budget.
• It will be illegal to serve meat to anyone under the age of 16 years.
• Meat will not be able to be consumed in any government buildings.
• Eating meat will be banned from the grounds of all NHS establishments.
• Meat will have to be consumed outside of all restaurants and pubs unless a special "meat-eating room" is provided in these establishments.
• Meat will have to be sold in plain packaging and carry a health warning "Meat can Kill".
• Those retailers selling meat will have to have the meat placed in a container so that the meat will not be visible to the public. This will obviously include butchers shops.
• The eating of meat in a car when children are present will be banned by law.
• The advertising of meat products will be banned.
• Special anti-meat eating programmes will be established free on the NHS and the government will fund research and development into the following: Meat Eating Patches, Meat Eating Chewing Gum, Electronic Meat and in addition all GP Surgeries will provide anti-meat eating clinics.
• Further measures will be announced as time goes by.

Ms McCarthy MP for Bristol East, well done the voters in Bristol East I say, said last night "The dangers to health of eating meat and of second-hand meat eating are well known. We need to crack down hard on this iniquitous practice for the good of our children, their children and their childrens children. In addition, and this is something that will be great news for all football fans, Forest Green Rovers will receive immediate promotion to the Premier League".

Further to this meat eating news it is also believed that if he becomes Prime Minister all shaving products will be treated in the same way under his own special Hirsute Agenda.

Welcome to the wacky world of Corbynista government.
                                         

Women Only Transport!

I really don't know what goes on in some people's minds and I don't think I ever will. The latest hare-brained idea to make me shake my head in wonder is from the Labour Party leadership contender Jeremy Corbyn. He is suggesting "women only compartments" on public transport!

Why? God only knows! Just a day after one of his competitors for the leadership Andy Burnham makes a cock-up on the radio by telling everyone that it is not the time for a female leader of the party, Corbyn comes out with this twaddle. It makes me wonder whether he really believes this or whether he thinks this is a shrewd move to wrong-foot Burnham but whichever it is this is a dangerous suggestion.

What would follow it. Men walking on one side of the street and women the other? Separate tables in restaurants for men and women? Etc. etc. etc. In a world where women have fought for equality is this really the way that we want to go? Is this really something we should even contemplate?

I thought Women Only candidate shortlists, something only the Labour Party utilises and Harriet Harman's pink bus during the last election were a slap in the face for women but this takes the view of women held by the Labour Party a step further towards a dark side.

Join Labour And Vote For The Leader - If They Like You

The Labour Party has always been a strange animal in my eyes but now it is turning into an absolute joke. Some may think it always has been but a political party that ruins the economy of this country whenever it is in power does not make me laugh.

Why is it becoming a joke? Simply because there are now calls from within the Parliamentary Labour Party for the leadership election to be stopped, suspended, cancelled or whatever word you wish to use.

You can if they like you and your politics!

Is this the Labour Party?

Why is this happening? Simply because you can join the Labour Party for £3 and then have a vote in their leadership election. Why is that bad in the eyes of Labour? Well because it might well mean that they will finish up with a leader that they don't want.

It would appear that this Democratic Socialist Party, according to the official Labour website, does not actually want either a Socialist Leader nor Socialists joining the Party. Anybody see the logic in that because I can't.

If the Labour Party, a Democratic Socialist Party, does not want a socialist leader nor socialists in the Party then what does it want? If it isn't socialist then what actually is it? What does it actually stand for? Does it stand up for its Democratic Socialist principles or does it understand that voters in this country are highly unlikely to ever elect a truly socialist government and therefore they are not going to be socialists in reality so that they have a chance to get elected? Does anybody really know?

Or is this the Labour Party?

It appears to me that Labour is a political party with neither heart or soul and without a clear path to follow. It is in disarray now. It was once explained to me that under that great Socialist Tony Blair, the left wing of the party made a decision to keep quiet, not rock the boat and not actually look to socialist principles whilst he was leader so that they could get into government. The latest debacle relating to the leadership contest would appear to confirm that to me. Don't be socialist because socialist policies are not popular. What are they then? Conservatives in dead sheeps clothing?
