David Cameron radicalised by the riots!

Greetings citizens! Breaking news – the riots have radicalised David Cameron – he has finally seen the light! But he needs our help – the forces of oppression do not want to lose their hold and he is now being controlled by remote forces.  Whenever he tries to speak the truth, electronic signals activated from a distant country – or maybe planet – interfere with his words so that the wrong words come out and the ones he wants to say cannot be verbalised.  How do I know this?  Because I saw the original of the speech he made today – before he actually tried to speak it.....  Below is an extract - the original conclusion of his speech – as he wanted it - before the distortions (shown here crossed out) and including what was silenced (shown here in red brackets). 

This is a time for our country to pull together.

To the law abiding people who play by the [unwritten] rules [of justice and equality], and who are the overwhelming majority in this country, I say the fightback has begun, we will protect you.  If you've had your livelihood and property damaged [by the Government Cuts and speculators], we will compensate you. We are [now]on your side.

And to the unlegislated lawless minority, the crooks criminals who've taken what they can get from the people. I say: [HM Revenue and Customs, the Financial Services Authority, the Monopolies and Mergers Commission and the People’s Police] We will track you down, we will find you, we will charge you, we will punish you. You will pay for what you have done.

We will need to show the world, which has looked on appalled, that the perpetrators of these [economic, financial and political] violations ence that we have seen [impacting] our very streets, are not in any way representative of our country – nor of our young people.

We need to show them that we will address our broken society and restore a stronger sense of morality and responsibility – in every [political party] town, in every [bank and financial institution] street, in every [large corporation] and in every estate.
And a year away from the Olympics, we need to [start to] show them a Government Britain that doesn't destroy, but that builds; that doesn't give [in to big business] up but stands up [to them]; that doesn't look back, but always forwards.

[I resign]

POWER TO THE PEOPLE!

“We can reverse our social atomisation by giving people the power to work collectively with their peers to solve common problems. We can reverse our society's infantilisation by inviting people to look to themselves, their communities and wider society for answers, instead of just the state.” David Cameron

Greeting citizens

Have you got a migraine coming on?  Good!  That means your brain is fighting back.  Fighting back against the bombardment of buzz words and sound bites which if you actually sit down and try to make sense of, could make you blow a gasket.

We’ve been trained to believe that anything said slowly, in a “reasonable” tone with a posh accent and a few long words is correct, intelligent and true.
But is it really? 

Don’t panic – it is not you who is stupid – it really doesn’t make sense.

David Cameron is inviting us to work collectively with our peers to solve common problems – what’s wrong with that you may ask? Nothing at all – that’s why I’m in UFO (the Union of Fabrication Obliterators).  On June the 30th we’ll be taking collective action with our mythbusting peers and our allies in other unions to solve our common problem of working people (paid and unpaid), people on benefits and pensions (and those who’ve been kicked of them) and children and young people having to pay the price for the economic recession. David Cameron himself said (in May 2009) he understood people’s anger “….about the bankers who got rich while they were bringing the economy to its knees.”  Do you think he’ll make headline news on June 30th by singing our praises for rising collectively out of our infantilisation? I mean that is what he meant isn’t it?

You see while we can’t fault him on what he’s saying, we have to question what he uses it to justify.  He uses his ‘power to the people’ comments to justify bringing in NHS reforms that were never voted on by the electorate (that’s the people, Dave) - since the Conservatives promised there would be no major reorganisation of the NHS.  He uses them to justify having a bunch of unelected GP consortia (NOT the people, Dave) running the Health Service in partnership with a load of unelected private companies and an unelected “monitor” making sure they are operating competitively – yes that’s competitively – not efficiently, not in a way that maximises health and prevents ill-health, but competitively.  There’s not a patient, member of the community or elected councillor in sight and the private companies will all be using the NHS logo so we won’t even know whether they’re private or not (e.g. the “NHS” Treatment Centre in Nottingham).
So when David Cameron talks about empowering “the people” – who is he really talking about?  Who is he listening to?  Not Unite and five other health organisations who have said ‘….the sheer scale of the ambitious and costly reform programme, and the pace of change, whilst at the same time being tasked with making £20 billion of savings, is extremely risky and potentially disastrous.’

What about the private health care firms who have donated £750,000 to the Conservative Party since David Cameron became leader in 2005 and the Private health lobby out in force at Tory conference?

Come on Dave, you can talk all you want about giving power to the people and switching power from here to there, but we already have a system for giving people a voice and it’s called Democracy – it involves people voting for individuals to represent them locally and nationally.  It doesn’t work perfectly – there are plenty of groups who are still marginalised and disenfranchised, but if you believe in people power the least you can do is start respecting the democratic process we’ve already got and acknowledge that you have no mandate for “reforming” the NHS and taking it out of the hands of elected representatives or for making massive cuts in public services.

When is an efficiency saving not an efficiency saving?

Spot says:

Ey up me ducks,
       
Now in view of how so much can get lost in translation, for those of you who have difficulty understanding the lingo, I’ve got a glossary at bottom of this ere posting for you to peruse at your leisure.

This week I’m returning to the old efficiency chestnut.  I’ve already mentioned previously how it’s a working class stereotype that public institutions such as local councils and the NHS are inefficient, and that public sector workers are underworked, overpaid and lazy, but these things can still cause a bit of confusion so I’m homing in on “efficiency savings”

Well now it all started with our household deciding to make efficiency savings!  This is on account of how we foresee an increased demand for energy later in the year when our house becomes multi-generational what with the arrival of a new nipper due in August. 

We had a big discussion about how to go about it, we decided to be open minded and listen to all David Cameron’s speeches on the subject - cos being so well-educated and all, he must have picked up something as he went along.  But you know what ?  We was flummoxed -  we just couldn’t make head nor tails of it…...he kept saying we had to spend less!

Well I tell you, my hind leg were aching I was scratching my head so many times trying to get some sense out of that one.  If we spent less, we’d have less energy – now a new nipper wouldn’t be experiencing that as very efficient would they?  Like, if we cut down on our weekly baths, true we’d spend less on energy, but we’d smell more…What’s the point of that?

Well we gnawed it over fer a good half hour and we came up trumps with our own efficiency saving strategy - Did we spend less? Did we hellers like! We forked out an arm and a leg…BUT….pay attention now Dave – it gets a bit complicated…What we forked out on was Solar panels and a brand new modern boiler, so even though it costs us more in the short run…..our household bills will be lower per amount of hot water used in the future!  Furthermore we’ll be damaging the environment less!  Now that’s what I call an efficiency saving. 

When is an efficiency saving not an efficiency saving?  When it’s a flippin cut, that’s when.
You can’t make the NHS more efficient by bleeding it dry, squeezing the staff, handing work out to agencies and private treatment centres etc. but that’s not the point is it - they’re not really interested in efficiency they’re interested in cuts.

Public health warning: Don’t believe anyone who says they want to make the NHS more efficient unless they’re saying they’ll need to spend more money to do it.

Yours Spot

Our precious NHS: 3 little myths and a REALLY BIG FACT



Myth 1: 
“Let me draw a little contrast between what the Health Secretary is delivering here – real-terms increases in health spending...” David Cameron
Myth 2: 
“Too often, the decisions of frontline doctors and nurses are over-ridden by a top-down system which doesn’t allow professionals the freedom they need.......

Myth 3: 
.........this is the reason that despite spending the European average on health, some of the outcomes are poor in comparison. For example, someone in this country is twice as likely to die from a heart attack as someone in France,” David Cameron

First of all the little FACTS -
FACT 1
According to the Office of Budget Responsibility, by the end of March 2012, inflation will have risen by a cumulative 10% since the Con Dem Government came to power.  Over the same period, NHS spending in England will have risen from £103bn to £105.9bn – that’s a 2.8% increase, a fall in real terms of 7.2%.

FACT 2

A few professionals don’t completely agree with you Dave.....The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) have voted 99 percent in favour of a no confidence motion against the government health reforms – the first time a motion has been carried against a minister in more than 30 years.
A BMA press release on 6th April stated..... we believe the Bill as it is currently written is taking the NHS in England in the wrong direction.

FACT 3
According to the OECD health indicators 2009, current figures back the common hypothesis that different levels of deaths from heart attacks between countries are explained by underlying risk factors such as diet and lifestyle. 
A year 2000 article in The Lancet has confirmed that, [The lower coronary mortality figures in France compared with other countries] is a consequence of different ways of coding coronary mor­tality.
But you know, you could spend a lifetime's bank holidays challenging the inaccuracies and misinformation pumped out by the government about the NHS - and that's just what they want: argue about the details - miss the big picture.  

1 BIG FACT
“The [Government's Health] Bill relieves the Health Secretary of his existing responsibility for providing a universal and comprehensive health service, and doesn’t allocate it to anyone else.
It leaves it up to unaccountable local GPs grouped in Consortia to decide what services their particular patients will be entitled to, and what they will have to pay for, and how much, and this can vary from one consortium to another – goodbye both comprehensiveness and universality.

It leaves an unaccountable healthcare market regulator (Monitor) to decide what private companies can offer NHS patients, and whether they can underbid NHS hospitals on price, and it mandates Monitor to promote competition –
goodbye free care at the point of delivery.”
 Colin Leys Cameron's rhetoric is wearing thin

SOCIAL MOBILITY? NOT ON YOUR NELLIE!


“The true test of fairness is the distribution of opportunities. That is why improving social mobility is the principal goal of the Coalition Government’s social policy..” 
opening-doors-breaking-barriers.pdf


Spot says:
  Is it a stereotype?  Is it a myth? – Me ‘n’ Ms Mythbuster both fought for this one but as she’s got a busy week ahead busting the “Power to the GPs….er… People” myth, she’s letting me have a gnaw at the old social mobility bone.  Mind you - she didn’t let on it’d involve an 89 page Government document as bedtime reading!
   I tell you, when I started hearing all this stuff about social mobility I nearly lost me temperature! – I mean where are they wanting us to mobilise ourselves from --- and where to?  If you’re saying we should be moving ourselves from down here to up there – you’re saying down here is inferior and up there is superior. 
  I can see the working class stereotype forming in front of my eyes...culturally deprived, poor, living in substandard housing, uneducated, bad health, unambitious, lazy, dependant...
  Hang on a minute!  You cut our social infrastructure – the Arts, benefits, social housing, educational support, the NHS and then tell us the reason we are deprived is because of a lack of social mobility!
  So we’re all supposed to be vying and competing for that wonderful, superior lifestyle in the sky where we can live on a street that’s the same size as my street but 8 houses on it instead of 80, where you don’t have to worry about the state of the NHS because you can afford private healthcare, where you can buy your own personal library and art collection instead of mixing with us lot in the public facilities and you don’t have to engage with state schools because you can pay for your children to be privately educated,  and where,  if you are really lucky – er sorry – if you are really well-educated, ambitious, hard-working, intelligent and culturally enriched, you can earn huge amounts of money and status by doing a job that provides no service to humanity whatsoever........? 
  It’s enough to tempt any self-respecting working class person.........isn’t it?
  Well me ducks, I have a confession to make.  I haven’t always been so on the ball as I am now and for a while I was estranged from Grandma – to my cost!  I once traded in 1,000 green  shield stamps to get our youngest a place in a private school – I know – it were a lot of stamps – I forfeited that car in the green shields catalogue!......and what did she learn there that she couldn’t have learned in a state school?  I’ll tell you what she learned...
  that regional and community accents are
  comical,
  that some jobs are embarrassing (and I’m
  not talking about being a banker),
  that the individual is more important than
  the community,
  that being comfortable is more important
  than being principled,
  that it’s better to be polite than honest,
  not to raise her voice – or laugh too loud....
  I tell you, when we realised what was going on, we took her out of there like a flash -before she got completely educated!  Grandma, a self-educated Marxist herself, never let me forget it.
  Not for me the low expectations of social mobility, we working class people are much more ambitious than that: -  Working class communities all over the world have histories and cultures which have been persistently attacked, belittled, manipulated and exploited and still we keep fighting to hang onto all that is good; a culture of co-operation instead of competition, commonality and camaraderie instead of individuality, fighting together for social justice for all, decent pay for decent jobs, appreciating work - paid and unpaid, appreciating and creating art, mucking in and getting on with it, being connected with (but not owning) nature....
  Hey I’ve changed my mind!  Up with social mobility – you’re all welcome to join us - all classes, all people – it won’t get you special privileges but the company’s great! (Woof woof)

SPOT THE WORKING CLASS STEREOTYPE

“David Cameron has pledged to do away with Britain's "insidious" benefit culture and..... strip benefits from people who repeatedly turn down job offers, and ensure individuals are only classified as disabled if they really cannot work.”
Spot says:

There you have it me ducks  – hidden between the lines as usual, not one but three working class stereotypes for the price of one.
The “insidious” benefit culture – picture it now – thousands of working class people finding themselves on benefit, discovering what an easy life it is and then just becoming addicted to it!  Can’t say I know anyone like that but obviously David Cameron knows loads of 'em, after all he wouldn't go making stuff like that up, would he? 
And "stripping benefits from people who repeatedly turn down job offers" – now if you don't know any different - you read that and you think that claimants are refusing jobs all over the place and nothing's happening to their benefits - not trying to mislead people are you Dave? - I know you've never signed on - but surely your advisers and consultants have told you that under the current rules - refuse a job and your benefit gets stopped! 

And that's not all folks - don't keep a record of all the jobs you've applied for and your  benefit can get stopped - only the other week I'd applied for loads of jobs, from head chef to dog warden (woof, woof) but because I couldn't fill me job search record in due to repetitive paw strain my benefit got stopped!  I knew I should have got a note from me vet!

And finally me ducks, that owd chestnut that working class people go around pretending to be disabled or sick to avoid work and get their hands on those juicy benefits.  Well us working class people come in all shapes and sizes and abilities and we don't like it when any of us get targeted – so leave off those of us who have disabilities or are sick, Dave - the discrimination we get is tough enough without your implications that we are benefit cheats.
Now my grandma - bless her soul - always used to say: "Maybe anyone can get rich in this country - but not everyone can.  People in high paid jobs are not morally superior or more deserving than the rest of us - they are just luckier."  Let's face it, blaming working class people who claim benefits (whether they are unemployed, disabled or workers in low paid jobs) for their status takes attention away from the injustice of massive bonuses, super profits, tax avoidance and making the poorest in our society pay for the recession.  

Ooo er - is that the time?  Can’t sit around here nattering all day – I’ve got some serious benefit claiming to do – only another 96,150 years signing on – and I’ll have scrounged as much in JSA and housing benefit as Phillip Green allegedly scrounged through tax avoidance in the last year!

Keeping the Spotlight on the stereotypes.

Myth: If we get rid of tax loopholes, charge a Robin Hood Tax on the banks, and increase bank regulations, banks and big business will leave the UK and this would be a disaster for the economy.

Greetings Citizens

If big businesses and banks “leave” the UK, it means they will no longer be operating in the UK – no Top Shops, no Boots, no Vodafones.  Those businesses are here because they have a market here and they are making profits here – that’s what they are paying tax on – the profits made in the UK.   If they move, other businesses whose owners are not so greedy will step in to fill the gap.  But Top Shop is not going to remove its shops from the UK, Barclay’s Bank is not going to remove its banks - their head office maybe – but with sensible tax laws that wouldn’t make a difference.  Where would they move to?  Somewhere where there aren’t already banks and Top Shops?  Somewhere were there isn’t a recession?  Or somewhere where there is lower corporation tax? – Well that excludes the USA, Japan, Germany and France for starters.  And if it’s so easy for them to leave, why do they put so much money into lobbying MPs about it?

FACT:Businesses and banks who threaten to leave the UK should be faced down not pandered to.  If they are not prepared to pay tax on the profits they make here, they should move over and make way for businesses who are.

Myth: There’s nothing Local Councils can do about the cuts, they have no choice but to implement them.

Fact:  Local Councils can take a principled stand against the Government cuts by making a decision not to co-operate and to set budgets based on need.  The local elections in May can provide them with a mandate to do this.  Such a stand will affirm what we all feel in our guts – that the cuts are unjust and that there is another way.  It will  empower the whole community to unite and fight for justice on a single issue.

Greetings citizens! 
We have listened to our local councillors’ complaints about the 25% (in Nottingham) reduction in funding from the Government (and  further reductions in 2012 and 2013) and we have listened to how difficult it has been for them to have to choose between valuable public services.  But they are not the victims here; they are the ones who can make a difference.  Instead of giving up without a fight and following the government line, they have the power to set the agenda.  The question should not be, how much can we cut from domestic violence services or homelessness projects or day care facilities etc.  The question must be, how can we defend all our services, maintain our social infrastructure which exists as the result of years of social investment and show complete solidarity with the most vulnerable in our society. 
”Riding it out” over the next 5 years does not answer this question. It abandons the most vulnerable to bear the brunt of others’ mistakes, it leaves groups to campaign on their own against each other for massively reduced funds – local library against local library, voluntary sector against public sector, women’s refuges against day centres, it fails to challenge the vicious stereotyping and misinformation that the Government uses to justify these cuts, and it guarantees the destruction of our social infrastructure. Passing on those cuts is divisive, disempowering, inefficient and an abdication of responsibility.
Our Government have failed to take leadership and grasp the nettle of dealing with the banking crisis, instead they pretend to be tough by passing on the costs of this crisis to the poorest and most vulnerable in our society – to those who have the smallest voice, the least power and no lobby or mates in the cabinet.    
If the Government won’t grasp the nettle, our Local Councils need to.  This is a matter of principle.  They need to say “No!  - The buck stops here – we refuse to pass this on.”  They can do this by setting a budget which is based on need. The whole community – service users, school, college, university students, public sector, private sector and voluntary sector employees, parents, carers etc, can then unite to fight for the resources to implement this needs budget.  History has shown that taking such principled stands can make a difference – Poplar Council in the 1920s and Liverpool and Lambeth Council in the 1980s.  Liverpool Council succeeded in getting an extra £60 million from Margaret Thatcher’s government.   What is there to lose? Local Councils say that if they do this, commissioners will be called in.  Would we let this happen?  If it did happen, how will we be any worse off than now? 
It’s true that local councils have already passed their budget for 2011/12, but there is a local election in May.  This is an opportunity for local councillors to offer an alternative and let the community decide.

MYTH: DEMONSTRATING WON'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE


FACT:  The powers that be are not going to let us know when we are rattling them and it’s true that demonstrating alone will not change things but it’s a vital step – a successful demonstration leads us onward and upward! 

Greetings Citizens!

Getting together to demonstrate reminds us how many of us do not support the Cuts, we remember that there is no mandate for these cuts and we all gain more confidence to take further steps.  The cuts are creating divisions in society; if we ask for money for one service, we are told it will be taken off another service. Getting together to fight these cuts in local and national demonstrations reminds us that we are all fighting for each other and stops us getting set up against each other.   So don’t be discouraged – that’s exactly what they want!

SPOT THE WORKING CLASS STEREOTYPE


"The prime minister says that local authorities should make internal efficiencies before making cuts in services and charity funding."
Spot says:
Ay up me ducks, did you spot the stereotype?  Of course you did....now my grandma, god rest her soul, always used to say – ‘Spot - the minute you hear anyone banging on about “efficiencies”, get out your trusty magnifying glass and have a closer look.’  How right she was.
On the one hand you’ve got local councils serving ordinary people and supporting the poorest and most vulnerable, and on the other you’ve got the banks, whose sole purpose is to make profits and who got us into this mess by over-lending to the point that some of them were about to go bust.   
Interesting that - so who exactly should be making “efficiencies” and who is in need of reform?
Nottingham City Council has had their 2011/12 government funding cut by 25% -  does anyone seriously expect us to believe that they are that inefficient! And even if they are – will they still be so inefficient next year that funding will be cut by a further 10% or more?

It’s a working class stereotype that organisations that employ and serve mainly working class people are inefficient – and we’re not having any of it.
Do us a favour Dave – until you are going to propose a 25% tax increase on the banks to force them to make efficiencies, keep your hands off our public services.

MYTH:“When you're borrowing 11% of your GDP, it's not possible to make significant net tax cuts. It just isn't."

Fact: The government is planning to introduce the biggest corporate tax cut in living memory.

Greetings Citizens!
Looks like David didn’t finish his sentence – no tax cuts for ordinary people, but great big juicy tax cuts for the corporations.
At the moment, companies based in the UK, with branches in other countries, don't get taxed twice on the same money so where the tax rate of the country they are in, is lower than UK tax, the company just pays the difference to the UK.  Under new proposals, "large and medium companies" (mainly banks) will pay no tax in this country on money made by their foreign branches.  (The exemption won’t be available smaller firms.)  At the same time while the big corporations will be exempt from tax on their foreign branch earnings, they will still be able to claim the expense of funding their foreign branches against tax they pay in the UK! No other country does this.  (For more info and references go to George Monbiot's website)

MYTH: "There’s nothing we can do about the cuts, it’s all been decided."

FACT:
It’s true! Decisions have been made, budgets are being set... but there’s nothing we can do ....?

Greetings Citizens!

The decision to use cuts to “solve” our economic problems was made without consulting us and without an overview or understanding of its impact on most people.  It was made by a small group of MPs, at least 19 of whom are millionaires with no idea what it is like to rely on public services.  They and their families will benefit more from companies’ making even bigger profits (getting even bigger dividends from their shares) than from any improvements or investment in public services.

It has been decided, but it is an unjust decision.

Any decision can be “undecided” at any time and we can make that happen. 
It may not be as easy for us and they won’t let us know when we are winning, but we can decide to get that decision changed.  The sooner we make that decision the better.

So now it’s our turn to make a decision:
·       We decide that these cuts are unjust.
·       We decide to fight the cuts until they are stopped.
·       And we decide to refuse to believe anyone who tells us that there is nothing we can do.

Myth: "We are all in this together"

FACT:
The 1,000 richest people in the UK saw their income increase by £70 billion in 2010 – that’s £70 million per person on average! 
According to the Institute for Fiscal studies “the overall effect of the new reforms announced in the June 2010 Budget is regressive... low-income households of working age lose the most from  Budget reforms
The fact is: Cuts to public services are not a fair way of dealing with the recession – they disproportionately affect poorer people including women and children.

SPOT THE WORKING CLASS STEREOTYPE 1

David Cameron blamed a "mob" at a student protest for behaving in an "absolutely feral way" and being “hell bent on violence and destroying property."

Spot says:


Ay up me ducks, did you spot the stereotype?  Of course you did - “feral”: like wild animals, ferocious, reverted to the wild.
Well it’s not the first time that angry working class people have been likened to wild animals when they have demonstrated against injustice.

Sticks and stones can break your bones but names can never hurt you, so some people say, but my grandma, God rest her soul, saw it differently – “first they label you as animals, then they treat you like animals” she used to say - how wise she was.  Members of that so-called “feral mob” were surrounded and held in one place against their will for hours – without charge and all for peacefully protesting – not a humane way to treat our people.

I’ve got news for you Mr Cameron – working class people aren’t wild animals - we are 100% human (Woof! Woof!).  It’s our humanity that drives our fight for justice – that’s JUSTICE Mr C, not “cuts” or “efficiencies” – JUSTICE.  It is unjust to smash our social infrastructure which has been built up over the years while leaving the rich who can protect themselves from the cuts, to get richer.

We’re onto you Dave - pack in the name-calling and stop picking on working class people.
