Trade Union Government (3.10.2014)

Lenin once wrote in 1919 that Soviet Power equalled trade union government and the electrification of the Soviet Union.

The Workers and Peasants Inspectorate began slowly, was planned to progress to between 350 and 500 ‘specialists, well paid’ (Lenin) but it evolved ignominiously into a brutal revanchist, nationalist-socialist dictatorship, best forgotten. It was a network of factory committees known after 'internal reform',the ascendancy of Stalin's cult known as the Central Control Commission,a tripartite type of arrangement whose inspiration was the Works Public Administration of the United States,part of the New Deal.

Some of the lessons of trade union government have refused to go away unlike Lenin and his like.

In the 1970s, the English adopted the National Economic Development Council to bolster nationalised industries and stimulate investment under Tony Benn. This was removed and then swept away by Thatcher in 1981.

What do Social Democrats say today?

Irish Labour and Social Democracy means trade union participation at all levels in society and the reconstruction and electrification of the railways to link up town and country, as that lost ideal of long ago, the electrification of the Soviet Union, was intended to do but failed.

A cosy cartel – doctors, lawyers and politicians (25.9.14)

Every time one switches on the radio, one hears praise of doctors and nurses and calls to employ more of them. Medical practitioners, political parasitism and legal coroners’ reports blind our eyes to widespread medical malpractice. A psychiatric terror entails for society a deepening of the vortex of deceit which compromised politicians have been sucked into. 

The response of the disenfranchised?

Misguided political extremism, radical terror and crime.

Lawyers have so far been unable to bring the main beneficiaries of Britain’s decline from a second-rate to third-rate player, riven by internal dissent and nationalist antipathies, the doctors, to law.

No party in England talks of anything other than extortionate tax-raising on the poor or putting up more obstacles to the aspiration to own a home. There is nothing in their policies other than those ideas and proposals leading directly to social exhaustion and industrial collapse.

Britain is paying for the NHS from direct and indirect taxes, the latter being much more significant and taxes on the wealth generated from third world countries by the extraction of oil. Also,there are the universal shady usurous practices of the West.

These practices are nothing new but the destruction of industrial, productive capacity dates back thirty-five years.

UKIP is a symptom of this disease in the body politic. That party has coalesced with radical libertarian ideas and monetarist notions.

While Britain contains over six million of those categorised as disabled by doctors due to their greedy grasping for public respectability, there is no real hope.

We say to insufferable bores such as Asian doctors and Irish politicians,"Would you ever go away and drown yourself because you have no grasp of reality. You were born and brought up to expect absolute obedience and you are not going to get that from me. Wise up,you fool! Law and lawyers will put a stop to your idle philosophising and violent behaviour sooner or later. Mark my words , you're going to prison."

The reconstitutive effects of prayer 19.9.2014

“Time and space for recollection, meditation and calmness...”
“...to think, to reflect or even simply to follow with our minds and our hearts a tale, a story in which to amuse ourselves in a certain sense ‘to lose ourselves’  to find ourselves subsequently enriched...”
(Pope Emeritus Benedict)

It is in prayer that the mind reconstitutes itself after trauma.

The many challenges of sensory deprivation and special measures deployed by soldiers represent a challenge to the mind.

Prayer- constant prayer- recollection and mindfulness restore and recuperate in mind and in spirit.

Many on the left who are the target of the police, military intelligence agencies occult ways and practices refuse to pray and live their lives in a constant blaze of mania, despair, exhilaration and excitement, cutting themselves off from prayerful recollection.
