Political Correctness Gone MadCommunity Payback vests
Tuesday, 30 December 2008 18:29
So, there have been instances of offenders who are doing community service and wearing the vests that say "Community Payback' being abused.
Now the do-gooders in our society have something else to whinge and whine about.
Let's get something straight, people who commit crimes should be punished. Punishment is meant to be nasty. It should be something that offenders do not like, something that they will remember, and something that they do not want to experience again.
Being called a few names and publically humiliated seems a fitting punishment to me. Anything that makes offenders remember that they have done something wrong, and that they don't want to happen again seems fitting.
There was a lot less crime when young thugs were birched, clipped around the ear by policemen with three-penny bits in the end of their gloves and dealt with in a similar way. When teachers could deliver a quick punishment there was no disruption in class. For example, in my school if the teacher saw you talking in class or doing something wrong you were called to the front of the class. There you stood facing the class. It was your job to pick the next offender. You watched very well, very carefully, because the boy who was stood at the front when the bell went got whacked with a gym shoe. It worked like magic. Everyone was very quiet.
Boys who were given detention would go and ask if they could take the cane instead of detention too.
Today teachers and others in charge have no sanction against unruly children or petty offenders.
Offenders should be treated harshly so they remember and don't want to go there again.
Social workers sacked for circulating fake email, but not for failing baby P
Tuesday, 25 November 2008 09:00
More proof that the lunatics are running the asylum comes today as the Daily Mail highlights the sacking of social workers and other council staff, plus final written warnings to other council staff, their crime was to circulate an email with a fake image of Gary Glitter carrying a child in a supermarket carrier bag.
You can read the story and see the image here
This is a trivial matter, just another fake email that is circulating and has been for months according to internet sources.
How does that compare to the treatment of the social workers and management of Haringay Council were treated? No-one lost their job! Read more
It is incredible, here you have social workers and so-called professionals who did not do their job, but they were not sacked. What does it need to make people accountable?
Britain has gone totally mad with human rights, political correctness and the 'Health and Safety' culture where you can not put a notice on the wall unless it is behind glass because it is a fire hazard mentality.
The answer is that it's easy to prove that someone forwarded an email, very easy. Just look at the top and there is the proof.
Another example is parking, it's so easy to send traffic wardens out to put tickets on cars, persecuting motorists is easy.
But proving that a social worker was incompetent is more difficult. Yes a child died, yes that child was visited twice a week for months, yes the child was tortured to death, but the social worker didn't notice and . . . and so it goes on. Incompetence in government, incompetence in social services, incompetence all around us, but nothing happens.
We all know who is not doing their job, who the incompetents are but nothing gets done about it.
No accountability. Welcome to NuLabour's Britain.
China admits hiring people to fill empty olympic seats
Tuesday, 12 August 2008 09:15
Face-saving is important, especially in China. Let's face it, none of us likes to look silly. So it's no surprise to find that China is hiring people to fill empty seats at the olympics. But is it surprising really? When you can watch it on TV for nothing why should you waste money travelling, especially with the unreasonable security in airports and by all accounts the troops and police in and around the olympic venues being high profile.
Maybe the UK Government needs to take notice - with costs of the 2012 olympic games in London already spirallying out of control we should be asking how much money has been allocated to paying people to fill empty seats and questioning whether it's enough!
