Voracious, small-minded predators…

by The Illusive Man

… Is how I think of the members of Central Bedfordshire District Council after reading this shocking story over at Liberal Conspiracy (emphasis original): On the 8th of February a man took his own life. Peter Williams was a gifted engineer, whose invention, still manufactured today, landed him in the Guinness World Records, but he [...]

The power of the crowd

by The Illusive Man

For those not in the know, crowd funding is where a community of people – say, everyone on the internet – raises money for a specific purpose through requesting donations from each community member. RocketHub and Kickstarter are two fine examples of how this works. Sometimes, however, the community response is quite beyond expectations. Take [...]

A couple of things…

by The Illusive Man

Firstly, via The Express, I find that our ever-wonderful social services want to remove a baby from a pregnant woman just because she is a supporter of the EDL (English Defence League) and they fear she may say things which radicalise the child. I have no love for the EDL at all, but this case [...]

The NHS: Rest in peace

by The Illusive Man

I’m a little behind the curve with this, but I’ve just seen this article from the Sunday Observer: A majority of doctors support measures to deny treatment to smokers and the obese, according to a survey that has sparked a row over the NHS’s growing use of “lifestyle rationing”. Some 54% of doctors who took [...]

The secret olympics

by The Illusive Man

Article copied from Big Brother Watch: In a remarkable – if not bizarre – twist to the Olympic Story, Amateur Photographer reports that it will be against Olympic rules to tweet, share on Facebook or in any way share your photos of the event. Quite how this will be policed is beyond comprehension and one [...]

The budget… And one or two other things, too…

by The Illusive Man

There’s been a few things I wanted to line up in my sights from the recent budget statement by the Chancellor – George Osborne – but a mixture of laziness, illness and Mass Effect 3 have prevented it. Until now. First into the cross-hairs is minimum pricing for alcohol, and more here. The government is [...]

Crime and punishment

by The Illusive Man

Its been a while since I had a bit of a rant about the state of punishment in our legal system, but I spotted this story on a news feed and couldn’t help myself… Spiteful burglars killed a 10-week-old kitten in a microwave after apparently finding nothing worth taking during a break-in. The cat, called [...]

In Europe. Ruled by Europe.

by The Illusive Man

And so it seems that the David “Call Me Dave” Cameron – the Buttered New Potato of politics – has finally shown his true colours. Despite all his talk and bluster about the EU and the repatriation of powers from Brussels to Westminster, he has issued a three-line whip on his party, threatening any MPs [...]

We the people…

by The Illusive Man

Via The Devil I find that MP Peter Bone asked Call Me Dave if we could have a referendum on continued membership of the EU… Peter Bone (Wellingborough, Conservative) Mr Speaker, 373,000 Daily Express readers want it, 80% of Conservative Members support it, the Deputy Prime Minister would love it, and my wife demands it. [...]

Evil

by The Illusive Man

This is Mila. She was found hiding under a car on a street in a Belgrade suburb by passers-by after having had all four of her legs cut off. The dog, which the vets named Mila (Darling), was not aggressive, but was scared, dehydrated and emaciated when they [the authorities] came to her rescue. They [...]
