Psalm 56 and 57. "Same time,same place?" The occult

 "My enemies are encamped around me,

 "Watching my every move, 

" They intend to destroy me!"

Who are the security guards,British Army soldiers and police listeners and watchers?

Secret agents and soldiers and nationalist and loyalist vigilantees!

If you are not careful,those hugger-muggers will have you beaten up or robbed in the style of the Italian mafia, Dublin street crawlers or the Northern Provos. Be wary of people who study your movements with the aim of a 'chance' encounter. Usually they want to unload a beggar into your lap at the occasion of his greatest need for company and compassion and assistance. The gougers in our society,the three named categories of political parasites (ante) do not "tolerate fools gladly". They have been well -schooled in Catholic schools and convents to send beggars to someone equally needy.

The enemies of thinking people are apt to approach them front-on in the street or sidle up to them looking for money. They claim that it is money for 'protection' or for 'favours done'.

Their pedantic nonsense chat and nuisance activities invariably focus on political, personal or financial misdemeanours,real or perceived. They have been sent out by 'higher authority' to check up on a person by a group or political party. That 'higher  authority' being politicians or lower down government officials behind whom stand the ghetto police of Sinn Fein. 

If you are a member of the intelligentsia,you will meet your nemesis one fine day at the start of the year or at the start of the hiring season on 7 February,the beginning of the Celtic Spring.

.....

Should the intimidated offer payment for 'favours done', should they give these spongers any money or a second glance?

Give no money to these 'deserving causes' or so-called charities or they will come at you with a knife to extract revenge for what they claim is money owed to them as agents of private individuals.

Give unlicensed charities such as Evangelical promoters, politicians and licensed beggars the heave-ho when they come to your door looking for money and support. They operate by creating a mess out of your affairs firstly,and then,by claiming that you have hidden sources of income and do not need either wages or public support.  I am referring to Cahal Morris and Charlie Mc Clintock.

.....

....

 The domination of the propertied classes begins with street subterfuge and with the police investigations aimed at building up informer networks.

Street-crawlers and their ultimate paymasters are well-known and easily recognised.

They seek to discern a regular pattern to your movements before they have you arrested or attacked.

Medicine. The Indian spies

If you want to read the latest set of Home Office placements,look at the press for the  names and the details of examining bodies who approved these worthy individuals and ask a reputable solicitor who the local housing authority bailiff or firm of bailiffs is in your locality. Look up an old telephone directory to find out where your neighbours actually do live. 

I know of no reputable solicitor in Enniskillen, Fermanagh or Northern Ireland. British Military Intelligence has suborned most solicitors and lawyers since it became embedded here in October 1968.

Never forget,you who talk of campaigning lawyers and journalists,all lawyers can be barred from remunerated employment if they tread on others toes as can journalists be starved of storylines by the people who facilitate their so-called objective reportage, the police.

Lost souls. Outdoors duty for policemen and their agents

Amateur dramaturgs, military spies and police detectives post themselves and others at 'keypoints' of towns to artifice so-called 'coincidental' meetings. This activity is carried on in association with applied psychologists and clinical psychologists in government employment. Usually in Enniskillen they are operating under the supervision of the local Health and Personal Social Services Board at Castle Barracks and Coleshill. Anthony and Gabriel control their activities. Both SDLP and Sinn Fein facilitate police activity through the local Police and Community Safety Partnership in the Town Hall.

....

It is a longstanding practice of police to 'dog' members of the public at random and annoy artists, musicians and writers with the intention of causing emotional upset and psychological harm.

The networks of investigators and strays, formerly run by the Catholic Church and its related lay organisations,are now organised by those other champions of harsh measures and employment prohibitions,the Police Nuisance Service of Northern Ireland, former soldiers and sometimes even, these days, the Legion of Mary.. Sundry elements are drawn into the service of a society on its knees, one like ours on the cusp of millennial change.

Artificed street activity is intended by the Gardai, soldiers and police to induce paripetal madness,stimulate fear and reduce even the strongest frame to paranoia. The aim of these Free State rovers,wayfaring strangers and tramps is to induce incontinence. In Ireland's beleaguered situation,this targetting becomes a permanent feature of life of many indigent poor and pensioners. They are paid with the small change of police doles and benevolent  organisations. Dogging becomes a reflex response of the police and civil society groups and local political authorities.

Ex mira,mira we say or,if you ask these  demons,"Who are you?",Satan will speak his Latinate name in reply as in "I am Legion." 

Why? 

Because it is soldiers and loose women and pensioners who take part in these street displays of intimidation. Their activities are in Northern Ireland a key feature of Secret Service street manifestations. The activities have drawn in Sinn Fein politicians and the reactionary milieu of ex-policemen and demobilised soldiers.

Silent military tattoos in the South are organised from Parkgate House in Dublin and by the Ministry of Defence in London and in my locality by the the CID Operations Room in the local police station.Most street players in my vicinity are former soldiers who have been drawn into "the vortex of imperialism" by security bosses and underperforming politicians (Lenin,1916).

Their wages are paid by businessmen and in my locality by intermediaries for government agencies.

....

Surely, police officers can see where constant surveillance and saturation policing be it by policeman, soldier or security guard is leading...

It is leading to a sudden and untimely death at their own hand.

That is what comes of dabbling in the occult and the black arts of public artifice.

Murphy is dead by his own hand as is Fox (Ballymun,2018) and Taylor too,by all accounts. In Dungannon Ellis took her own life while Alan Johnston departed a number of years ago (2016.Ballymena),both by suicide. Locally in Fermanagh,O Connor of Belleek has taken her own life as has Quinn. All are parts of what Matt Baggot called the "police family".

I say to copper and charlatan who lives off public money without proper authorisation and good cause,"Take a step back from the street scenes which you engineer with the assistance of nationalist headmen and semi-fascists. See the bigger picture. What you are doing is wrong, superflouous and thoroughly evil."

.....

In Enniskillen as is MI 5 's wont its female helpers have taken over the running of people into the ground. I refer to Blake and Burns.

In Enniskillen similarly,Eaman Landy and Trevor Naughten have made their appearance to run over Northerners based on movements information from Blackwood and O Halloran.

Be on your guard,Northerners. Both Catholic spinster and Free State Army tramps have made their debut appearances on the streets of Northern towns and cities.

......

"Don't get involved in the street games of the Provos and criminals. Those people are the road to no town. The Italian mafia teaches everybody its street manoeuvring wherever it goes and the more you get to know about Italians and their manipulation of charities to gain kudos with policemen and clergymen,the less you like them. The Italians and Provos are only hooligans but you have to live under the same roof to discover that. They're the dirtiest, filthiest,most unkempt race on earth and most countries run a mile to get away from them and the Irish are the people they have had the most influence on."

Some concepts from Lenin. National chauvinism. Social chauvinism. Social patriotism. Social pacifism .... collectivism and collegiality

Many of Britain's social advances since the rise to prominence of the British Labour Party have given rise to the belief by many English people that,"British is best" (national chauvinism,Lenin).

Let those of us in Northern Ireland who had to listen to Thatcher's constant screeching remind the English that their prosperity was built on pillars of plague-ridden and famine-dead and slaughtered.

Those in England who trumpet their social progress since 1945, should remember that it has many downsides such as malingering, ignorance and well-publicised instances of medical misconduct, hospital murder and social parasitism (social chauvinism,Lenin).

....

I hope that the English saw in Thatcher's vulgar hedonism for the few and austerity for the many,insufferable national chauvinism.

National chauvinism is a closely-linked phenomenon to social chauvinism.

Lenin used the two concepts and others in connection with the political developments in the revolutionary period which overtook the Russian Empire in 1917.

....

English people should remember the lessons of Russia and listen to those who criticise imperialism from a socialist standpoint. 

....

Irish people, respect those who moved our country forward from economic backwardness,social decay and political stalemate to a modicum of stability after centuries of state oppression. Both Church and idlers played their part because a moribund society can only be changed by force and the use of revolutionary methods.

Are there,in Ireland's  transformation, parallels to the November 1917 Russian Revolution? 

Yes, certainly but other countries have had revolutions too whether the Americans or English like it or not. Check the dates,you people in the US Army and Navy. Both of your countries had revolutions.

...

28.1.2023

Two of Lenin's concepts familiar today only to perhaps a few dozen on the left are "social patriotism" and "social pacifism". 

...

There was one thing which made real peaceful coexistence impossible to some hoary old buzzards in the the West during the Cold War. That phenomenon was the publicity concerning the "uneven" international balance of terror. Such conceptualisation was illusory and the publicity concerning it was misleading. Such ideas can be traced back to the US Department of Defence and CIA.

....

'Eastern change' was partly built on illusions. Many of the ambitions to "enrich yourselves" are still apparent in post-socialist and post-Christian countries.

.....

Proper discourse and debate have to focus on the creation of a web of political illusion in a contemporary setting.

....

Both the Russian Ministry of Defence and its US counterparts deceive those at the head of their respective governments.

...

The big thaw after 1983 and Eastern democracy today? 

By way of a response to profound change in the East,let Westerners not throw the Russian democratic 'baby' out with the memories of the Stalinist bathwater.

For his part,can Putin not accept the right to free speech, political conflict and press controversy.

....

The philosophical tenet of class against class which colours Russia's Stalinist past

The philosophical proposition which influenced Russian class conflict between 1898 and 1917 in the former Soviet Union that Communists so admired was Marx's concept of bellum omnium contra omnes (Letter to Ruge,1843). This is best translated to Irish conditions as "It's everyman for himself!" (Terry Bolger,1990-1).

 The concepts of  'war of all against all' and class conflict is still very much alive in post-industrial societies.

Romantic idealism and " the Jewish god of peace" (Brecht) does not prevail.

The detritus of the past and its manifestations today...

In Marxist theory and in classic political teleology,it must be remembered, if I am not muddying the water,that labour and capital are fundamentally at odds as are worker and poor and professional person and the rich and that one has effectively vanquished the other. That is a guide to modern events and the lesson of Russia's awkward course.

....

14.2.2023

This Ireland? Native comparisons 

Sinn Fein were in the 1970's, national chauvinist. 

Under Adams immature leadership,they turned social patriotic. They later turned turtle.

Today, many Sinn Fein spokespersons in the North go with the media flow and are characteristically socially pacifistic. P.A.'s take no firm position on hostilely workplace situations caused by clear and irreconcilable class interests.

Our recent Northern experience has similarities to the revolutionary political  and social trends of the democratic changes in Russia. Engels's concepts of a political revolution are still relevant to our times in Ireland because we may be on the brink of profound political upheaval (Anti-Duhring,1878).

...

The Ukraine war and the world economy

Sanctions against Russia have brought on a world crisis of revolutionary significance. Unlike the 1980-88 US prohibitions on high-tech exports to the Soviet Union,it may be the West's economy which is heading into a deep crisis. The ruling classes of Western states may be about to alter themselves as governing organisms.

The warning sign of the  Eastern economic and political transformation was widespread police and medical repression in the seventies and eighties.The ratcheting up of police repression and growing economic obsolescence engendered social desperation and political dismay in the Soviet Union and later in Eastern Europe.

So,is there a Western parallel to the Soviet Union in the 1980's?

Very much so!

In the UK,there is a political inability to see the shortcomings of handing the government of society over to an unelected autocracy which is composed of medical screwballs and political looneys.

...

19.3.2023

Left-wing socialism? Northern Ireland and its orientation towards a British -style medical dictatorship 

We say to the misguided old women and political hens who take up lists of names to support doctors as we currently see in parts of Northern Ireland,you are fashioning a noose for your own hanging.

These silly old cows know nothing about the medical profession or the thugs who they incite against medical inmates.

No right-minded person believes in the protracted crying into their cocoa of  boring old farts such as doctors and nursing staff.

....

21.3.2023

Other lessons of the past

In terms of political manoeuvring,Lenin wrote a pamphlet titled One Step Forward,Two Steps Backward in 1902-3 concerning political opportunism. 

In those terms,where does Russia sit today?

Firstly in order of historical appearance during Lenin's literary discourses from Russia came broadly Great Russian Chauvinism. That was followed by a movement  for progress,a trend of agrarian socialism.

Following forward from the late 1890's to the Democratic Revolution of February 1917..

The dominant revolutionary trend in the February Revolution of 1917 was socialist revolutionary politics. Lenin coined the phrase for that of social patriotism to characterise socialists who argued for the continuation of the war against Germany. 

Again,it must be remembered that in November 1918 elections the Socialist Revolutionary Party had three supporters to each Bolshevik. 

In those times of civil war,the Socialist Revolutionary Party and minority social democrats mixed social democracy with imperialist rhetoric.

....

Are Lenin's concepts still relevant to theorising the world,post-Fall,where national borders are largely stable and no world war has been joined in this nuclear age? 

Apart from Africa where borders are contested,yes.

....

Russian socialism in a contemporary setting?

Those who see hope for Russian socialism in the Russian  Communist Party and Our Home would be advised to see in that society a case of "Two (or three) steps backward,One Step Away". 

Away?

 Away from peace. 

Three steps backward? 

A sharp lurch back from socialism via social patriotism via social chauvinism to Great Russian Chauvinism.

Democratic and revolutionary socialists say clearly that the Ukrainian War is aggression  and territorial expansionism in the form of the "Special Military Operation", so-called. 

Putin's war follows the traditional course of ethnocentric self-aggrandisement based on false concepts of race and nationality.

A relevant description rooted in the early writings of Lenin for this military adventure? 

Great Russian Chauvinism.

However,Leninist conceptualisation and socialist concepts are not accepted by those in the Duma or broadly acceptable in the contemporary Russian setting.

All parties have abandoned revolutionary liberty and the democratic path to socialism. That freedom is a Western concept and forms the legal foundations of Britain,the US, Germany,France,Italy and Ireland.

The war?

The Great Russian Chauvinism which Lenin railed against prolongs unnecessary human suffering.

The future for social  democracy in a Russian setting?

Russian democracy must renew itself and start once again as in December 1829 at the very earliest,stumbling beginnings.

In the conceptualisation of pure moralists, evil will have its own reward.

In temporal terms,those counselling militaristic and ethnocentric aims will get their full payback with premature or unexpected deaths,even in our own state of Northern Ireland.

....

30.7.2023

If we accept that the Soviet Union retreated from Great Power status in 1989 by its own volition, where does its political status rest now?

Russia was between 1991 and 2022 a national democracy,a self-absorbed political democracy. 

Modern times

In April 2022,Putin embarked on a campaign of aggression based on false concepts of race,nationality and religion.

Sensible observers similarly counter to NATO warmongering that Russia has a right to feel secure within its own borders.

Ireland,too. Neither cause is realistic because of defence inadequacy and NATO's creeping up on Russia.

With Britain's occupation of part of our own country coming to an end and Western aggression threatening Russia's very existence,the time to take a stand for Ireland's territorial integrity and Russian  sovereignty and territorial unity has come. 

In the East, in Eastern Europe and Asia,the die is cast against the neo-colonial class.In the West,the US and many European powers are walking on a nuclear cliff-edge.

Ireland 

In this country,let us all moderate our demands of society and look "not to what our country can do for us,but what we can do for our country" .

Russia,1898.Ireland,2023. Agrarian socialism

Since neoliberalism took hold in Ireland,there is no pooled reward of labour exertions in agriculture such as in the form of cooperatives. In our country,there is only a small residual measure of cooperation in agriculture and dairy cooperation faded with the ghost of Sir Horace Plunkett and the cooperators of the late nineteenth and twentieth century. 

Pat O Connor of Avonmore Foods and Pierce Brosnan of Kerry Foods introduced demutualisation. With that retrograde step came even more intensive 'forced' farming and the introduction of hormones and growth promoters to industrial agriculture. Bertie 'the Rascal' Ahern and that pair and the hung-his-mother middle farmers engineered the breakdown of the agricultural cooperation movement after 1989.

.....

US 'business trade unionism' is a system of sole union recognition,employer-labour arrangement. It contrasts with Anglophone countries free collective bargaining.

English trade union collectivism rather than Irish social consensus or US 'business unionism' holds the upper hand in most progressive anglophone powers.

The big picture.

 The Western world is trying to halt with financial sanctions on Russia and restrictions on China changing trade patterns and the search for cheaper labour-power.

English political forces are trying to guide Anglo-American financial  cartels to play the 'national bankruptcy' card. Politicians in the US seek to use effective import quotas,the manipulation of credit ratings and capital to debt ratios to render Chinese industry uncompetitive and bankrupt Chinese banks and financial institutions.The market will win out because such financial blackmail can only win out against a lesser power not an industrial powerhouse such as China.

....

A Manifesto for Change in A New Millennium?

Western countries should turn to themselves and their own resources for the solution to their problems. If imperialist predators are not to gain a renewed grip, voters should vote to keep the focus of military measures away from weaker and more vulnerable powers.

An end to international adventurism on both sides and a return to the basic tenets of peaceful, democratic progress!

....

German collegiality implies a closer tie between workers in the workplace rather than the disassociative "Geselle" as in English  collectivism. The German worker refers to his workmate as "Kollege". "Kamerad" is reserved in Germany for a military relationship or an associate in an enterprise with social revolution in mind as a Communist would refer to a comrade.

In Germany,we say therefore that people are more tightly bound together but that this does not relate to domestic life which is strictly "privat".

....

In talking about "lay priests", those men and women who translated Lenin's final works in the 1930's imparted the great lesson that a beast such as German fascism or Italian corporatism would stoop to charity-mongering to recruit cutthroats and hooligans as did the Daughters of Charity and Sisters of Mercy in Weaver Street in Dublin in my instance sooner than pay me for what were the fruits of my intellectual labours,namely municipal housing redevelopment schema and what was to become the National Development Plan. The good and pious nuns reckoned that I should endow them with my labours and receive no payment.

The Communists were the orchestrators of the campaign of terror directed at myself. They acted in association with the Gardai. They alone knew where I lived, foremost amongst them being Eugene Mc Cartan (Phibsboro/ Ballymun/ Castlewellan).

Fascism. Politics and medicine. Medicine and thuggery. Thuggery and policing.

Politicians perjure themselves before the bar of history by defaming conscientious objectors. Doctors ldo great harm in defiance of the Hippocratic Oath.

I say,if Labour and democratic upper class politicians spend more money on primary care as they call it and NHS psychiatry without independent monitoring for criminal defamation, intimidation and hospital brutality,it will inevitably lead to you as a member of the public, someone you know or a member of your own family being consumed by the deathriders who operate the NHS engine of mayhem.

As a temporary solution to the grossly defamatory remarks being levelled at vast numbers,I am in favour of reducing spending on health and cutting doctors salaries. 

In my experience,the NHS has been largely counter-productive since 1968-9. 

....

In the context of our prevailing medical tyranny and police terror,the demands of the thought police with stethoscopes are opposed to the Irish Catholic population of the North of Ireland. 

Nobody knows that fact better than clergymen,so why do they not speak out?

Due to a relentless terrorist  campaign waged from No. 10. That terror campaign takes the form of the deployment of gangster tactics. It is accompanied by legal concupiscence with the oppressor. 

There is a complete absence of intelligent debate in Northern Ireland in the press, universities and courts. 

The police medical terror nexus is a product of neo-colonialism and the policing of dissent. Former revolutionaries and the clergy are its main advocates.

 Police gangsterism is supported fully by public worthies with few exceptions.

Nothing can conceal the fact that many Catholic Northerners are in the grip of fear of the National Health Service and PSNI.

Are we living in a state with police on one side and doctors on the other side,I must ask.

.....

Tony Blair  was the orchestrator of the campaign of political-medical policing and orchestrator of what he saw as a Counter Insurgency Terror.

I SHALL BEAR WITNESS TO BLAIR'S POLITICAL-MEDICAL-POLICE DEATH-CULT. 

Who are the people the Department of Health and British Government's wicked doctors,social workers and psychiatrists aim their sour epithets at other than the Catholic protagonists of progress and the working class democrats?

As the real economy and industry fade and society changes, police and NHS  doctors particularly the 50-60 psychiatrists have come to the fore to construct a semi-fascist state in the North of Ireland. Colonial expatriates have constructed terror states in the Republic of Ireland,Britain and Germany. This secret state is subsidised by public monies. Informer doles are paid by big companies for medical experimentation and social profiling.

....

Fascism and  invasive medicine are evident everywhere in Britain. Everywhere foreigners have arrived to feast on Britain's poor and marginalised and the products of a once great country.

There are only a few counter-developments to the collectively-imbibed poison of NHS politics.

.....

Changing times? International developments? The influence of geopolitical and political factors in coming times?

On matters of imperialism

 Germany,NATO and Britain,turn your eyes to the East.

Realise that you should never attack from West to East.You will be vigorously repulsed and soundly defeated. A crushing defeat at that will be your fate. Your enemies will crawl over your remains and even thickwits such as the Germans understand that the Russian eagle will once again fly high over your shattered country.

Our endogenous problem in Ireland 

No more money should be spent on public psychiatry without a series of independent reviews. 

I speak from a wealth of personal experience of the hospital gulags in the years after the Good Friday Agreement.

Medical terrorist activity was immediately launched by discontented housewives and jilted lovers not long after the ink dried on that agreement.

I was arrested twelve to thirteen times and a flurry of murder bids were launched against me by psychotic monsters who form the offal of all classes,most notable amongst them being Cody and Mad Dog Manley.

In 2010,I had a boot placed on the back of my neck by Aidan Rogers, one of the NHS thugs employed n the T and F Psychiatric Hospital while another,Enda Mc Crory, placed his boot at the base of my spine.

An act of contrition from the authorities after I took these medical freaks and their police 'handlers' to court in September 1999?

Not on your nelly!

Yet again,in 2015 on Campbell's orders I had my head smashed off the ground by the resident hospital psychopaths at the T and F. Mc Crory once again,the Tyrone thug with links to drunken GAA arseholes in the Tattyreagh GAA and the Gallagher FBI/NHS/ PSNI family (Tattyreagh, Omagh/ Dunluce Avenue,South Belfast)..

All NHS psychiatry should be abandoned and psychiatric hospitals shut down. As long as there is a financial incentive for layabouts such as hospital orderlies to beat people up and for doctors to poison members of the public,we will have these parasites on the public payroll. Filth breeds more filth.

Hospital orderlies defy even the most basic standards of justice and the elementary principles of law. Their behaviour would not be possible without an organised police force grounded in colonialism and a willing retinue of Irish Quislings.

The media's role in this political circus

Listen to the mock moral outrage of politicians and police and attempts to ascribe mass killings and random acts of medical violence to mental illness. Then you learn that many of our leaders are leading the charge of the light brigade.

Before the British Conservative Party took a hand in complex medical and civil matters, there was mass psychiatric incarceration. It took a Wolverhampton firebrand to set the cat amongst the pigeons.

The advocates of mass incarceration are trying to turn the clock back to the 1860's with their incessant psychobabble. We think in particular of the nonsense uttered by old BBC,Irish News,Sinn Fein,SDLP and RTE hens.

This ubiquitous chatter about mental health is entirely unnecessary,I think.

Almost all of it issues from those most at risk of a mental breakdown, namely women in the public eye.

A palliative 

Doctors and general nurses should be allowed to get on with their work uninfluenced by sterile old farm-sows such as Gildernew,O Neill, Mc Donald and those silly female know-it-all types in the political  field and faded beauty queens in the press and media. 

A prophylactic?

Because there is real, justified concern from so many members of the public and because the politicians should be prepared to confront mass hysteria, restrictions should be put in place on the proliferating parasitism of public medicine particularly the non-scientific variant, psychiatry.

...

Going to law for criminal defamation?

You will meet concerted opposition from medical pig,political policeman and paid pontificator. If you do not have the stomach for a prolonged battle in the courts,let legal action against police and doctors be a last resort.

Reform

Universally,as regards psychiatry, administrative measures are inadequate and unproven and in Northern Ireland, contrived to defeat the ends of justice.

....

28.3.2023

The big picture 

The problem is not just doctors and police, medical guidance or lurid headlines. The whole conception of what a doctor does under public governance and the absence of effective scrutiny over feral rats such as Indian doctors is the issue. That fact predestines the system of public medicine to large-scale privatisation in Britain.

Funding of the  NHS

Doctors appetites for ever greater sums of money have done to Britain what Marx declared the Napoleonic war did to France. 

Britain has been "bled dry".

Feedback to pollsters and public opinion formers

Why can media pundits not accept that framing misleading questions with only one response is an auto-didactic business which defies common sense and tries to deny most people's experiences.

Let us have real change not mock outrage and media 'jolly japes'  and inane flights of fancy.

...

10.7.2023

Medical orderlies,the Hindu madmen who give them their orders,the idlers in the police who do not visit the scene of doctors' crimes, the politicians who counsel further health spending without independent audits and those lawyers who pay no heed to ethical or Department of Health guidelines must be held up to public condemnation by civil society.

....

In my diocese and throughout the North,the Catholic Church rarely condemns medical entrapment,police brutality or blackmail. Most of the clergy's sermons and homilies are inspired by listening to idle old spinsters on the better side of town and autistic stranglers.

.....

2.4.2025

On this the 36th anniversary of Gorbachev visiting Ireland,the question of universal human values once again rears its head.

In Britain there is talk of welfare reform.

I say,until the link between doctors and the state is broken there will be no improvement in welfare numbers. Welfarism and the NHS is Bevan's Svengali creation which threatens to keep us locked in an eighteenth century society. In that society policing was king. Ignore narratives,punters, about the police only coming to prominence when Peel was Home Secretary.

 There have always been police and they have all exercised prebendary powers in defiance of the Bill of Rights. 

It is on the basis of electoral reforms and the promises of the seventeenth century that parliament governs society. 

Devolving parliament's powers to the police is a sign that parliament is neither fit nor willing to govern.

Where parliament abrogates its own powers in favour of the police,the next person to be consulted will be a doctor. He will most assuredly libel and poison a conscientious objector and a dissenting voice. That is what is meant by a system of anomie and that is what we have had since Christian knights returned from Palestine to Ireland.

....

Consider the following proposition,

"You'll wise up too late about the politicians in Sinn Fein or the Provos who you put such store by-they back Blair to the hilt-and doctors. They're not interested in helping anyone or starting a rumpus that will end up in the Dail or Houses of Parliament. The job of the police is to protect the public from hit-and-run drivers and the job of doctors is to cure sick and wounded animals and mend broken nails. I'll let you figure out the rest yourself. Your friends are Tory reformers and One Nation Tories. They're similar to your brand of social conservatism,Joe".

Or,as Hitler is reputed to have said,

"If you must tell a lie tell a big one." The Hitler in question being Churchill,the arch-imperialist,a cipher for Mr. Mc Cartan's paymasters.

......

"The police are not anyone's friends. They only do what they are told to do. They help no-one around here. Never get involved in controversy with them unless they have blacklisted you since they wouldn't ask better than to have you killed by some Irishman drunk on Welsh poetry like Manus Maguire. The police in this country regard themselves as above the law. They will have to come down to earth sooner or later but it won't be in my time or yours in all probability. That's what the song about Major Tom concerns. Call them pigs and they will leave you alone. The only animal that will ever get the better of a pig is a wild animal like a Provo or other homespun dictator." (A truer witness,my father)

A reactionary strike. Backward -looking strike wave is upon us in NI

It must always be remembered that social progress in Northern Ireland is imported not endogenous so let us examine some of its outworkings and prescient costs at the present time. We should bear in mind that we need a political revolution such as occurred in England in the seventeenth century to enshrine the rights of man in law, particularly in the Constitution. With that political revolution we must curb the power of bishop,doctor and judge to enforce unjust laws and  to impress legal controversies on us.

The demand for harmonised percentage pay increases by consultant doctors, teachers and higher-up civil servants in NI has spread to the South,if recent media reports are to be believed.

Politicians should ignore carping consultants and managers of the ambulance service superstructure. They are involved in medical crime and open intimidation.

Instead,let us factor the nurses £1 700 one-off payment offer and 4.5% salary increase into final-salary pensions. 

My late sister's trade union,Unison,must be free to go onto hospital wards at off-peak,non-emergency times to recruit and encourage,inspire and uplift,hospital canteens being the best locations acceptable to management and nursing managers.

Let strikes be a last resort for nurses or is it to be hat-pins at dawn?

The Free State?

Let us ignore Southern medical consultants and senior doctors special pleading as we would ignore all special interest groups. They are already very well remunerated unlike the poor and unemployed down South who are barely surviving. In the unlikely event that there is real evidence of suffering or misery or want, financial help and adequate accommodation should be made available to medical specialists.Let us keep tight restrictions on male 'millies' in medical representative bodies, pharmacy and dentistry. 

Some do not do their job properly. 

Many senior doctors and experienced nurses lack moral conviction and belief in any type of provision for the health of the poor and indigent and migrant.

 Typical of that type of medical supernumerary in both jurisdictions is the Senior Registrar attached to a horse Protestant psychiatrist.

Let the Stormont Minister of Health take note. 

Doctors in the North who practise as G.P.'s? 

Don't make me laugh,Mr. Robin Swann. Those people are living off the fat of the land. 

The Minister of Health in the South?

Southern consultants who desire to engage only in private practice,Minister Donnelly?

Cut doctors' pay and salaries and establish a Social Support Fund for gifts in kind and in cash to needy cooks, cleaners, electricians, plumbers,carpenters, boilermen, drivers, groundsmen, care staff and ancillary staff and their families in association with trade unions. Tell medical professionals' trade union officials to get lost.

....

Fractious elements? The public nuisance created  by some public employees?

 The consultant-led 'deserving cases' who are featured in tiny, left-wing publications are creaming it off the top.

The voice of the patient and beaten-down?

Stick to David Cameron's, Teresa May's and Gordon Brown's plans to help poor families at a propitious time,good men and true.

Honest people,speak up like even Boris Johnson did for those who have noone to represent them. 

With the recent referendum in mind...

Those who voted for Britain to leave the European Union must be rewarded higher social security benefits. They have performed an invaluable service to all of society by cutting people loose from the deadwood which is undemocratic European Union officialdom.Similarly, we have been distanced from Dutch industrial products traders. We must also part company with a bent and unrepresentative set of gerontocrats. I am referring to the leaders of the official trade union movement in Europe and North America.

The big question of public finance 

Anyone who talks about spending more money on the health service without independently verifiable results and adequate safeguards for the thousands who die in medical care every year,is out of touch with reality. The first thing some NHS doctors who I have met do is to flout elementary standards of human decency and break the laws protecting a patient from serial defamation and violent misconduct.

Until a closer look is taken at the NHS and its staff, particularly senior nurses and ambulance centre managers,more expenditure would be wasteful and counter-productive. The evidence shows that everywhere more money is spent without measurable accountability to the patient,his family and,in my case, ultimately,a court of law,standards of medical probity fall and general outcomes deteriorate.

Reform. Pay differentials

Great work has been done in reducing pay differentials in education. Let the matter be taken in hand in the nest of vipers that is medicine and the NHS to reduce income differentials.

Increase the pay of the lower-ranking nursing and care assistants,nurses in lower grades and hands-on junior health managers. Bring down senior doctors and consultants' salaries.

In the interests of actualising human rights law,let there be a court referral after a police doctor or social worker with a military family background has someone interred in a psychiatric hospital. The burden of proof must be put on the many wayward doctors in our hospitals.

REDUCE INCOME DIFFERENTIALS!

If doctors had a genuine vocation,they would accept salaries commensurate with no more than four times that of a trained nurse or junior health service manager.

....

Current affairs. Controversy

There is no justification for giving doctors and nurses pay increases tied to average wages inflation. That leads to serious crises in government finances,low productivity and widespread disenchantment with that type of society, one which allows itself to be held hostage by doctors, nurses, policemen, civil servants and teachers. Those people are living in dreamland. Go onto a hospital psychiatric ward for proof of sloth, ignorance, unmannerliness and rough treatment of people with very serious health conditions such as rhenal problems from drinking too many fluids, particularly late at night. That's an old physiotherapist's and hospital manager's trick to block up beds and create unnecessary distractions, stress and worry for patients and hospital staff notably the lower levels in staffing availability and grades....

....

We say to psychiatric doctors,"Stop talking about work,and get some done yourself!" We say so particularly to people with higher incomes than they need or are entitled to for effort. Some people earn their crust by the sweat of their brow while some medical public employees go from one day absent to holidays determined not by politicians or administrators,but by TV and radio and media commentators. Media pundits are out of touch with reality.

The public wants reform of the health system and dentistry,public and private. All attempts at change in Britain and America end up papering over the cracks and bringing even greater problems. No government and no modern country can afford these exorbitant wages increases being demanded bluntly and.openly without the danger of social breakdown. Social welfare claimants would be the cause of that phenomenon. The latter know that doctors and nurses are not doing their work even reasonably well,much less independently of the media and the police service in any country. We must embrace change publicly and those bound by the rules of medical confidentiality, privately as well. 

The watchword of labour?

The politicians are pawns of the media, who the English  refer to as go-betweens or go-fors...

The question of violence in our hospitals

The exception does not disprove the rule,namely that protection from violence in the NHS psychiatric gulags is urgently required.

....

The junior doctors have embarked on a three-day withdrawal of labour. How to meet reasonable demands for higher salaries?

Firstly,the NHS must curtail bed-blocking and reduce consultants top-heavy salaries and over-laden expenses accounts.

How to fund the NHS junior doctors pay claim without enhancing relative privilege and copper-fastening pay inequity and social unfairness?

In the press,reduce the unhealthy emphasis on medicine.

Make the NHS "a lean,mean fighting machine" (1983).

Secondly,partly privatise underperforming services and sectors and introduce streamlining and some competitive tendering. End Private Finance Initiatives and Public-Private Partnerships. Reduce over-staffing by cutting what are described as safe staffing levels in directives and guidelines.

STOP THE UNHEALTHY EMPHASIS ON THE NHS.

NHS psychiatry has become for many people not a crutch but a police baton,a system of internment and interrogation centres, medical gulags and nursing homes.

....

5.4.2023

Strikes?

By all means support strikes BUT, remember, many in the public sector are not doing their job properly APART,that is,from in blue-collar trades, engineering, electrical, cooks, cleaners,groundsmen, auxiliary and ancillary or transport and related fields. The quality of their work is first class and compares very well with any private operator,often being a trend-setter. That is why,when public sector pay is being negotiated,transport and related fields are first out of the traps as the most determined and vociferous opponents of lacklustre employers who,like all employers,think that they can walk over people and take their employees for granted. The last out of the traps in terms of pay negotiations are the handful of building workers still in the public sector and ancillary staff for different reasons. One set is largely unorganised and the other much too vociferous for their own good.

In the end of the day,we all have to COMPROMISE unless we are very WELL ORGANISED.

....

16.8.2023

Levelling up

In line with the basic principles of social justice,let nurses accept a 5.5%  pay rise and  a £1 700 lump sum  and electricians a similar increase but let cooks,cleaners, groundsmen and ancillary staff receive the District Council increase of 19.4% to 19.5% wages increase and junior doctors pay demands be reasonably paid,though not in their entire mass,perhaps close to their £20 per hour demand. The latter seems justified since they all seem a good old sort, trying their best. (We have to look elsewhere for doctors who malign their patients. They are invariably General Practitioners and Consultants acting at the fiat of "experienced" nurses,latch-keys in other words).

Let consultants salaries be frozen.

REDUCE DIFFERENTIALS!

Some jargon words explained,if dated ones...

To explain society and economic exploitation in the modern era,Marx used a word from Latin, proletariat.

But what does this word mean?

It is,in truth,a historical-scientific term.

Let me,if I might be so bold,explain the meaning of a word, which is certainly not as dated as it might seem

"Prole" means 'work',"tarii" means 'to sell'.i

Acknowledging the historical immiseration of the worker and the precarious situation of the majority goes to the basis of the industrial age and modern times,the situation of of the employer -employee relation. For an insight into more of the extremities of the capital -labour contradiction and their contraposed unity, let the casual observer take note of the dilapidated accomodation of the early industrial age,the chronic poverty, profligate begging, crime, prostitution,undernutrition and misery.

 Capitalism?

A genie out of a bottle,Marx's Deus ex machina (a bolt of lightning) ( 1860's).

These days,the labour movement has advanced the interests and living standards of the poor to a much higher level than Marx and Engels could ever have hoped. Therefore,we should not forget those dark days and the resistance to progress offered by Tories,coat-trailers and loyallists and,in France,beacon of Marx, opposition of rich property-owners.

 Why not forget?

Regressive tendencies , political reaction, takes on different shapes and forms everywhere. This phenomenon we see all around us in the influence of tribalists such as sportsmen and 'sectional interests' (James Connolly,Gordon Brown) in our era

Therefore,we say,society is once again for many at a dismal stage in Ireland. Note the declining influence of the trades unions, true communists and political radicals. Intellectual and spiritual life is given a boost by the softer-focus Christian universalism of the Catholic Church.

.....

The agrarian socialism of the Land League of the 1880's and its abiding influence in Ireland 

The influence of the rough, ignorant, uneducated big farmer class through its mouthpieces in politics was,in the South of Ireland, supplemented by social security entitlements for the poor farmer in the 1960's. Tenant farmer cooperation gave way to smallholder conservatism . Agricultural consolidation continued  apace despite state supports to the small farmer.

1800-2000 big farmers hold agricultural production in bondage and the small farmer is led like a bull on a rope to market.

What then was the Irish town dwellers' response in the 1970's to effective tax exemption for Fine Gael's large farmer clientele?

The tax marches.

....

In the Irish towns?

The worker is bound by the wrists to his employer in order to sustain himself and his wife and family.

The solution of the person who used the term 'proletariat' most frequently, Lenin,could be considered again in our rights-obsessed times:A democratic overturn and a social revolution.

Let us not forget the social background to modern developments in industry,the economy and society which gave rise to the Welfare State, now  remodelled by Blair to the German Sozialstaat. We must aspire to social progress and aim for something more apt,revolutionary-democracy in our Irish context.

The big picture? Back to the 1880's again?

Marx,Lenin and others made an enormous contribution to humanity. Some of their democratic proposals should still be considered.

Neither revolutionary or democratic socialism were at the helm of revolutionary  democracy in our national liberation phase of Ireland's recent history. The green Tories are at the helm.

In the 1930's a great deal of good to confound either trend was done by revolutionary democrats. 

What Ireland had in the 1930's was a government which steered a path between imperialism and isolationism and it was and is Fianna Fail,no matter how pale a reflection of its former self it may be,which steers an unwavering course between rich bankers in New York and London and over-zealous advocates of social engineering and miracle cures today.

....

27.8.2022

Which brings me to....

The contemporary utility of the term 'proletariat'

It would be tempting to think that we could redeploy the word in the style and frequency of a nineteenth century philosopher high on morphine or a guerning Russian Marxist with an infertile wife. That can never happen in our era of 'liberal' governance and 'free' markets because modern Anglophone society by-and-large rejects classical Marxism and the proletarian.

What socialists can take from old Marx's  Capital and Lenin's discourses that is worthwhile and of contemporary benefit is inspiration for renewed vigour in the fight for social justice. Not armed insurrection by the poor and unemployed on the French or Russian model but rather a public,legal (and even journalistic) struggle for economic equality and the rolling back of political conservatism. 

The reactionary mentality,the backwoods frame of mind,has been with us a lot longer than capitalism. Backward -looking types talk out of both sides of their mouths, informed by brutal and barbaric instincts. We have them in abundance in our benighted isle.

12.10.2022

Wasn't there another buzz word of early socialists, bourgeoisie?

Bourgeois and bourgeoisie are two terms of interest to democratic socialists and revolutionary mockers alike but only the French understand them properly. The French bourgeoisie were not those "addicted to comfort and respectability "of the Oxford  English Dictionary definition but rather large property-owners in the North-East of France. The term originated from large owners of more than one coalmine around Vevres and Creusot in Northeast France.

...

Petite bourgeois socialism

Petite bourgeois socialism,let us set aside the historical significance of this term in the writings of Lenin,tries to tie two competing, elemental forces together.

Here, in Ireland, we are beset by the petite-bourgeois socialism of nationalists and Sinn Fein 'grandstanding' (with apologies to Noel Carroll, Newry).

An honest party like Fianna Fail stood resolutely behind those who it sent into the frontline while Sinn Fein bargained with their lives for the filthy lucre of media publicity. Fianna Fail realised that Ireland had very little room to manoeuvre between imperialism and the social and economic demands of national development. 

.....

Political caution when choosing leaders and voting soberly?

Fianna Fail are experienced leaders. They see that Ireland must chart a course between renewed Anglo-American imperialism and warmongering and the needs of a growing country.

 Irish men and women, before you vote, THINK.

 Ask yourselves,which party is best not for me,but for MY CHILDREN?

Voting preferences will come easy after that and you will vote not for a party with QUESTIONS but one with ANSWERS.

....

31.10.2022

Another perspective....

On this day of Halloween when the lyric poet, Patrick Kavanagh,says 'old ghosts meet' let us consider petite bourgeois socialism,a phrase of Marx and Lenin.

Petite bourgeois socialism entails trying to reconcile two opposing classes which are based on broadly (but not entirely) separate economic interests. Classes emerged either recently in some developing countries or in industrial countries,centuries ago.

Nationalism's arcane politics stands for bluffing and insinuations and it is aimed at the private and public imagination of the countryman and townie. Nationalists and their hangers-on who claim to be republican but don't vote,nationalist logic and the ringleaders hateful conduct are based not on rational idealisation but on arcane knowledge and primitive behaviour learned originally from the Sicilians.

.....

A Christian perspective?

Christian sovialists tell tree-hugging megalomaniacs such as Gerry Adams to worship God not a false god with feet of clay.

Who are the organ-grinders of Anglo-American gutter rhetoric issuing from the mouths of Belfast gutter proletarians?

The US President and his local representative, the head of the Irish Business Consortium.

22.4.2023

Ireland in a period of national intemperance and political incontinence

The key to this springtime of the lumpen proletarian lies in that phrase "semi-criminal elements" (Engels, The Prussian Military Question,1858-1865, Volume 20,Marx Engels Collected Works).That phrase describes the lifestyle of those who once stole to survive and the insane and the displaced in those environments where poor people developed their traits.Their social location is as summed up by Marx and Engels in 1847-8 (The Communist Manifesto) as that of "that passively rotting mass whose role in society best suits them to the role of reactionary intrigue".

Change?

Change is desirable, profound change if you like communalism or communism as it is called and as the Church calls it communitarianism.

 What must be added to which is said by those who consider themselves advocates of the poor and marginalised is that people change their social class and level of cultural-scientific attainment during their lifetimes. Did not Marx write,"The only constant is change" ( These on Feuerbach, 1844).

 The main reasoned objection to naive communitarians and moral idealists is that scientific socialism comes with a proven track record of overcoming economic downturns and dealing with rural unrest. People who by virtue of their conditions of life want to use and abuse others simply have to be firmly dealt with by the government of a sensible government.

In a democratic society,we cannot have expropriation of either middle-size farmer or big farmer under prevailing conditions. Incremental change that hampers market laissez-faire practices and reins in the wild horses of economic maladies and hand-over-fist financial exploitation and expropriation is an anti-market solution of sorts.

....

The perpetual dilemma 

The country idiot and the town clown have to be overcome in Ireland. They and the small farmer,the huckster and the political imposter are permanent fixtures in public life and,in private,close bedfellows.

Social engineering to raise the poor up to a higher level? 

Perhaps,but there must always be the option of PRISON for the PERSISTENT  CRIMINAL and the MURDERER if for no other reason than to save them from a pack of wolves baying for revenge.

Petite bourgeoise

No dictionary definition flips this alternative to bourgeois or proletarian.

Petite bourgeois -if you are not a reader of socialist theory,you will not have encountered the term- is actually a reference to middle ranking civil servants. In Ireland because of the seminal influence of Padraig Pearse the balance has always been tipped towards progressive views in almost every government official. Why,so? After difficult beginnings, England's imperial crimes in other lands became widely publicised and the barriers put up by nineteenth century idealists were broken down by social progress of the 1970's. The Irish Revolution may have appeared to be the work of Pearse in the 1920's but it is the imprint of bourgeois revolution which is most visible today. Ireland did not have a bourgeois revolution immediately but it did have an economic transformation soon after liberation.

Hysteria. You're living in dreamland, female politicos.... I hate to point it out, Ms. O' Neill,but...

Anyone who makes speeches at a memorial event for the murder gang agreement to the effect that there are no second class citizens anymore is living in a sealed environment and has no contact with the real world. Ms. O Neill's consciousness -if we can call the perorations of this vulgar-minded,pill-popping,fat little woman consciousness -has been formed in the cocoon of Sinn Fein circles where the party is moving ever further away from its core supporters...

...There is no worse dictator than a female dictator because...

Ms. O Neill,you are blind. All the recent nonsense about "workers" which you have been spouting ignores the uncomfortable facts of life here. Northern Ireland has lost almost all of its manufacturing industry over the last 41 years. 

Think things over before you open your big mouth. You are paid to represent people,not babble incoherently and inconsistently like a witness in a drink-driving case. Reflect on gifts of public money in ever greater quantities to grandstanding projects and flim-flam civil society groups. I am referring to Sinn Fein,the GAA and loyalists. Their very existence imperils the working of the criminal justice system and the effectiveness of the civil legal process. 

Groups such as the mafia,the GAA and Orange Order are serving no political purpose other than sectarian backbiting, political intimidation, mutual catcalling and public recrimination.

The comprador class

Everyone knows in Irish country areas that Sinn Fein is run by and for the benefit of small farmers and business interests. The SDLP work for doctors,dentists, lawyers, judges and teachers and those in the  employment of the big international businesses.

The political spokesmen of sectarian parties in Ireland and Britain are well-spoken and effusive. They are given extensive publicity in the state media for no apparent reason.

The Sinn Fein enforcers

Those people whether small farmer or hospital 'keeper' are not concerned about or interested in the consumer or patient. (Eamann Mc Cann is one of the many paid rabble-rousers and hate-preachers in the background of Sinn Fein).

Green and Orange politicians in Stormont

Well-trained yakking birds who do not know what they are talking about albeit better than what went before,namely religious fundamentalism, outright bigotry and sectarian murder. 

The elephant in the room

Police and psychiatrists have transformed the North of Ireland into a ticket-of-leave prison-hospital. 

I can't speak for the SDLP-they have always been absent without leave- but for my 'abdication speech' as a guerrilla leader,see Der Spielplan of July-August 1988 ("Is it me you're looking for?", "Ochon, Ochon,Ochon,is a ruin,a ruin,a stoir....",after Neidi Frank,Rann na Feirste,1977, "The boy stood on the Burning Bridge"). That "abdication speech" may have had its outworkings before 1988. Few,if any, would have heard it or remembered my doggerel prose and glic expressions apart from a small number in the IRA.

Mea peccato!Mea peccato!

...

A quick follow-up to a stay in hospital at some Sinn Fein header's instigation?

If you want your P45 from your employer, vote Sinn Fein. The female yakking birds will tell you to leave their office and to abstain in non-political elections if you are registered to vote in trade unions elections.

All Sinn Feiners are users and abusers whose appetite for self-publicity is only matched by the execrable Alliance Party and independents.

All parties in Stormont are connected to the police and British Army and receiving most of their funding from them indirectly. That is, INCLUDING Sinn Fein. Witness the police diktats of Mc Quillan and other colonial enforcers regarding politicians salaries.

....

15.12.2022

Parasitism 

Itinerant Tyrone women and female Sinn Fein "activists" wander off on a mission of no hope and confuse politics with personal matters. I am thinking of Ms. O Neill,in particular.

No member of the sensible voting public is remotely interested in Sinn Fein or their het-up women. They VOTE FOR CONTINUING WELFARE PAYMENTS.The Sinn Fein hens don't have a qualification between them and talk a lot of nonsense. When asked to do their job,they busy themselves with distractions.

The 'big' picture 

Public bickering threatens to drag us all back to  internecine conflict and the open displays of police brutality and paramilitary hooliganism which accompanied it.

Please be quiet and moderate your screeching tone,Ms. I Neill. No-one who I know that isn't a fool has any interest in your speechifying and political catcalling .

....

As James Connolly,Sean O Casey and Brendan Behan knew well, Ireland is full of fools and organised gangs. Most are based in republican gambling and drinking emporiums. 

In association with the Orange Order's trusty knaves,the GAA threaten the very basis of criminal justice and realistic normative relations,not forgetting what their predecessors did to the civil policing system. 

The very existence of an organisation such as the  GAA is an affront to even the minimum standards of public justice in a normal society. 

Ms. O Neill's speeches are leading some hospital 'keepers' to believe that they can worm their way out of a term as inmates of the prison system.

 That is what she was taught to advocate by the coiste seasta.

....

We say of the raimeis talked by all politicians in the North of Ireland, "Would you not,those of you who indulge themselves with this nonsense, consider a career in the BBC or Irish journalism. You have the same grasp of facts and issues as Donald Trump or Paddy Gildernew or Archbishop Donal Keown. For proof,look at the rubbish printed in the Irish News or broadcast on BBC Radio Ulster news bulletins". 

Away with you! You're a bloodsucker,Ms. O Neill,a glutton for free publicity and a sponge for public money for yourself and the Chosen Few!

24.4.2023

We have all heard enough from carping menstruating women and their hollow homilies. Let me as a lifelong Republican call for change at the top of Sinn Fein.

You have had your speak,Michelle. Hand over to someone sensible like Conor Murphy.

I,for one,do not want to listen to any more of this screeching from menopausal women.

.....

20.9.2023

Sinn Fein are NOT a working class party no more than any other modern 'labour' or 'socialist ' party. Nobody apart from a few headcases around Belfast or Derry take their nonsensical and contradictory claims to be interested in the poor seriously.

Sinn Fein and its affiliates generate no wealth and do not understand how the very basis of capitalist accumulation functions.

Their economics is the garbled nonsense of some old university or prep school textbook by Schumpeter which they claim will grow a magic money-tree to the sky for their unemployed and country clientele.

Nobody with any self-respect or proper work record and evidence of achievement votes for these headers or takes them seriously. Mentally-agile people abstain from voting where there is no good independent candidate.

Because of MI 5's iron grip on the BBC through people like Jonathan Rosenthal and Mark Davenport and the BBC Board of Governors,no independent news or proper commentary filters out of Northern Ireland. (Therefore,for independent news and commentary,we say that anybody calling for more spending on the BBC is a fool,a corrupt policeman or a random access madman).

....

4.2.2024

Your self-contradictory rhetoric,Ms O Neill,to the effect that there are no "second-class citizens" any more is completely out of touch with reality. You are only interested in yourself when you give speeches to the Stormont Assembly.

Facts are stubborn things...note that a third of the working age population is classified as "disabled" and the NHS medical parasites whose slanderous allegations you encourage and endorse have classified 202 000 as "mentally ill" in the Six Counties.

Either I am a nut,or you are living in Dreamland.

Check your facts. There are only 27 000 in manufacturing in Northern Ireland in comparison to 230 000 in 1981.

Come out of the political chocolate factory and realise that vast welfare dependency fuels the political necrosis and it is symptomatic of a society suffocating on medical hyperbole and economic parasitism.

Be quiet,you silly harridan O Neill.

Silly cow! Pathetic,really,female politicians.

Sinn Fein politicians? Women in big luxury cars,how are ye?

28.6.2024

Men,do not put your fate in the hands of a woman. If women want to vote for another headless chicken,let them. Voting for a woman or any self-styled he-she is the road to ruin for you and your family.

Women have established a monopoly of well-paying employment and despise independent-minded men,so if you value your life tell them to have manners when they call at your door looking for votes and to go away. Unless,of course,you are married to one of them. In that case you have to listen to constant carping, confused calumnies and endless backbiting designed to wear you down. Middle class women,that is,are fit only to be burned at the stake as witches.

Guidance?

Remember what is posted to Christians. In the Letter of James (New Testament) "they attack what they do not understand out of blind instinct and these are the very things that destroy them".

The golden rule:NO WOMAN SHOULD BE GIVEN AUTHORITY OVER A MAN.

....

To sum up,a woman who cannot cook or clean and lives in a pigsty or an expensive boarding establishment such as the Dorchester Hotel -I am referring to Margaret Thatcher-should not be put in charge of anything,much less running the country. She should be told to go out and mix a bucket of suds and clean up the mess left by herself and others and the same goes for all those Golden Girls brought up in the 1960's in either Belfast or England.

.....

We say to people such as Michelle Gildernew, Debbie Coyle,Mary Louise Mc Donald and Michelle O Neill and other B-movie starlets,you are catcallers and old hens and your only talent is for vicious in-fighting with other old women and spinsters.

I say,Sinn Fein under these 'beauty queens' and old farmers up by the Border has become a sponge for public money and a front for dolemen and sponges, doctors and social workers who are generating fear and misery in equal measure. You enlist the services of fickle guides such as nationalist teachers and nurses to police your retinue of idle followers and the professional criminals who do your dirty work.

Your party's time will come to its final end one day. As long as you are tied to the coattails of idlers and medical bores and barroom spoofers,you can not participate in the task of lifting your working class clientele out of absolute and relative poverty and ease the heavy burden of RUC/PSNI/NHS repression.

.....

An election is coming in the South which will imperil the very basis of industrial employment growth.

Give both of these wasters NO VOTE. DO NOT ENCOURAGE WOMEN TO DICTATE TO MEN. 

Reject hysteria....reject feminism...reject schizoaffective ideaisation and nonsense talk from these barren old maids....

We say to women in public office that you are hindering the work of public bodies by making your childish behaviour the centre of attention. We say to you that you are the products of the feminist movement and are not up to any serious tasks.

Get wise to yourselves. You are only looking for attention and trying to be something that by virtue of your weaker physicality relative to men you can never be. When you're on your way home from work, don't drop by the off-licence for a bottle of wine or a bottle of spirits. Drinking on your own is not a proper or morally enhancing way to live your life nor is casual sex with someone who you have met in a public house.

Try to give up solitary drinking and the life of an easy lay and pitch your life around a healthier approach.

You have been led astray by your teachers, political parties and social figures.

Get in touch with reality and try to know what you are capable of and what you are not because in many occupations,you are taking too big a weight on your shoulders.

Clean the wax out of your ears and listen,if you please......the nationalist gombeen man reared and tutored by the Catholic Church in Ireland....

Today,more than ever,the listening public should expect no sensible remarks from the right-wing Irish nationalist politician who claims to be a homely charmer and mollycoddles us with bumph and nonsense, concealing a lust for money for himself and his clientele. In the South he acts in association with the local parish priest and leading religious laymen.

Often this gombeen calls for more spending on psychiatry in our doctor-besotted country. 

When he comes to your house ask this pig in the parlour," Do you not speak out that a psychiatric hospital is a form of confinement, even more so than a prison? There is neither criminal charge nor determinate period of detention. Are you trying to get me or a family member killed or injured? Talk a bit of sense. Nobody in the health service does any work. They're laughing up their sleeve at people like you who advocate more health spending. Wise up,either that or go and drown yourself in Lough Erne!"

Address his fan club in a like fashion. Listening to a maladjusted individual or politician who comes on the radio talking nonsense about "mental illness" makes no sense to most former inmates of the asylum. 

Why do the idiots not see the elephant in the room? 

In Ireland, North and South,we live in a police state organised by politicians, police, Catholic clergymen, soldiers, lawyers,judges and medical personnel.

My soliloquoy on "the tune the oul' cow died on"runs as follows,

"I am not the only one evidently who does not listen to this sort of pedantic rubbish on the radio or tune in to those who issue a carte blanche to doctors, notably that perfidious type of doctor,a psychiatrist. BBC audiences are 9.8 millions today in comparison to 26 millions in 1986,the BBC being the main generator of health hysteria."

Some advice...

Firstly ,be on your guard against clergymen and those who conceal the mailed fist in a velvet glove. I am referring to nationalist politicians.

Secondly,turn off the BBC Radio Ulster news if it is annoying you.

Thirdly,avoid fair-weather 'friends' such as media figures, middle class journalists and those such as the  police who are the functioning executive of nationalist politicians. They are never far away from the microphone. Politicians, professional and concealed, like to give speeches to the unwary and naive. Their lives and those of their followers' are wound up in nonsense.

Above all, KEEP LEFT! Vote LABOUR!

Real democracy and the labour movement in Northern Ireland. The South and Britain and politicians

Trade unions represent a great social good with little or no protection  from government and precious little support from civil bodies. 

Because of the historic influence of those recalcitrant thugs,Communists in trade unions, there has been much noise but little light shed on the internal workings of trade unions and few are recruited to trade unions in industrial employment.

.....

In Northern Ireland,we are involved in a struggle for mere freedom from arbitrary arrest, psychiatric detention and poisoning but those who can not deal with reality such as escapists-I refer to Sinn Fein and the Stormont clique of senior civil servants and mouthpieces - pontificate about.national independence and social wellbeing. 

In his latter years,the leader of the British left found comfort in this democracy,not socialism,that leader being Tony Benn but that eclectic nerve ruined him and led to his arrest and police-medical imprisonment. (The arrest of Tony Benn proves that there is nothing more certain than right-wingers and their medical agents turning informer under pressure of events. That has been for decades the abiding political crisis for Western democracy engendered by the collapse of Marxist dictatorships in the East).

Money for service to labour and democratic movements?

In a colony such as the North,right-wingers in the  labour movement and their fellow travellers are well known for getting their hands on others' income and chattels to feather their nests in their new places of abode.

Britain does have a lot of whimsies on the left and right of the political spectrum. 

This is everywhere so in Europe since semi-fascist rhetoric emerged into the open in the 1970's.

....

Labour politics in the age of the internet and social media 

Many influential individuals and those who regulate society from day to day-I refer to the medical police and health bureaucracy -do not accept that democratic criticism improves lives and makes politicians do their jobs. The growing number of public pensioners in Northern Ireland and Britain can not criticise because they do not have the power of class articulation nor any economic clout.

...

In the 1980's and 1990's, the industrial powerhouse that was Britain was reduced to ruin and desolation by Tory politicians in the pocket of high finance and big monopolies.

 Vehement opposition to trade unions from privately-owned media and financial cartels hoisted rich brats into power. These political parasites were responsible for Britain's failure to advance politically and socially.

The legacy of Thatcher is that enormous wealth rests in a few hands.

In Northern Ireland,the outcome of the GaFA is that we live against a backdrop of industrial decline, social dystopia, police terror and a multi-polar state without one body at the helm of government.

.....

 In Northern Ireland for the period from the Good Friday Agreement to the present, the matter of criticism of doctors,those trusty knaves and accomplices of the police, generated no meaningful response from the Stormont Assembly.

What should the world make in these difficult times of the labelling of a generation as mentally ill at the behest of partitionist, reactionary and nationalist politicians?

Progress for 790 000 is bought at the cost of the rights of 382 000 so we can only blame the Stormont camarilla.

The labour influence in the other part of Ireland 

In the South,big money political interests legislate only reluctantly when confronted by the labour movement. They have to be confronted with the ultimate  threat of a general strike or generalised labour discord. Only the ICTU is able to gain concessions for the low paid and marginalised. Social atrophy and political stasis is down to the influence of the South's neo-colonial politics. Joining them in the party political hullabaloos and pensioner street scenes are decaying elements of  far-right fascism in the police and army.

Britain and Ireland in summa,the remains of the day

It is socialists who clear away the wreckage left by Irish and English 'free-market' economics when they are allowed by electorates imprisoned by social media chatter and mass intoxication by sport and poison.

....

The battle for democracy as it must be fought with the recent past in mind

There would be no need for a change of government anywhere or any democratic upheaval if properly thought-out civil and legal and dispute resolution procedures applied. I refer to political upheavals such as happened in Russia in 1991.

The present day. The Russian lesson of the suppression of fair and bi-partisan criticism 

Only a fool would ignore the government use of psychiatric medicine in the control of protest. Soviet psychiatry was a manifestation of a deep moral malaise and an enduring crisis of political authority. 

Perestroika. My political contribution to law-governed societies in the East (1983)

The Soviet bureaucracy used my well-meaning totemic intervention in the form of slogans for Openness, Democracy and Restructuring to try to paper over growing.political divisions and lack of real equality in pay and conditions,not forgetting the impasse for relations in international currency exchange.

A storm petrel of reaction,the Blairite harping on about the NHS and Good Friday Agreement

Blair undermined the Bill of Rights 1689 with a series of repressive laws while conducting  wars of international aggression and plunder. The Bill of Rights 1689 is and was widely accepted as the basis of all law-governed societies in the West.

Reform,the health issue and society,the police-medical nexus

The sturdy representatives of the state manifest constantly their claims for bounty money in the form of percentage-linked, harmonised salary increases for both themselves and doctors while Labour and Tories play silly games with people's lives.

.....

 Who will be the cock-of-the-walk in gross income terms after the current round of bottom-up industrial unrest subsides?

Cock-of-the-walk will be doctors and state employees at the HIGHER level in Northern Ireland.

They already have incomes well in excess of their needs AND they are receiving them from the British Government. 

Make no mistake about the greed of our middle classes, working men and women of the British Isles and in particular of the North of Ireland. State employees who cry 'wolf' too often such as NHS doctors,teachers and well-paid civil servants are sadly missing from what Michelle and Barack Obama could clearly see (and the Catholic Church and the Salvation Army in Ireland and Britain have an overriding imperative to serve). I refer to the benefactors of the poor,the hungry,the foreigner,the stranger, the homeless person, the displaced, the refugee,the asylum seeker, the person "seeking only workmen's wages" and the hungry child.

That is one thing a fat English Tory politician and the rich man have in common, neglect for the poor and down-at-heel and BRAZEN IDOLATRY OF MONEY AND POWER OVER PEOPLE'S LIVES.

.....

The big picture In the West

Apart from Ireland and California which are clearly on  long-term upward swings in terms of technical applications, Europe's and North America's "Glory Days" of capital accumulation are over.

The Stormont Assembly? 

The DUP MLA's are not to be taken seriously as normal rational people and Sinn Fein's politicians  are destined for a relatively short-lived notoriety. 

The great democratic deficit in the North of Ireland is down to the fact that the  spoofer dominates the Northern media and the police force controls political discourse.

....

The future? The working class? A separate party? 

Marx could see that the workers of the North, South, Britain, France and Germany should have their own political party and the non-craft worker his own union.

 There are democratic socialist parties in Britain, Ireland and in almost every country in the world. However,because of modern education, every sane and grounded person realises that political parties based on the dictatorship of the proletariat are a thing of the past.

Gorbachev,that potentate of the Soviet Union

An historical illustration of authoritarianism which I found objectionable at the time was the Soviet Union. If Gorbachev had taken the slogan caption of mine "Democratisation"  seriously,he would have, at the earliest political opportunity,called for a multi-party democracy. Between December 1983 and December 1991,if recollection serves me right,he never even once mentioned the subject.

Modern times 

The magnificent 11.5-14% pay award won by refuse and recycling workers and litter-pickers and street cleaners and lower grades of district council workers is a great victory for the 2022 strike movement.

It is the largest victory in many years,37 at my reckoning.

Let us now turn our attention in Fermanagh and Omagh District Council to the depletion of services in our local hospital.

Forward with Labour!

No politician in Northern Ireland,not a single one of them,has a whit of intelligent knowledge or inherited wisdom in their background. None has any tangible or real connection to the Labour movement.We say to these political types who send out morons in football supporter clubs to harass critics and normal people, "Wise up!" Street-combers have their order of appearance in sequence,form and manner,most of them no better than walking dungheaps.

Their politics are the politics of  Moriarty ("Parnell",Collected Poems, William Butler Yeats, Everyman's Library) and the views expressed are characterised by James Joyce in "The Dead" (Short Stories).

Lenin's question,"What is to Be Done?"

For that,we must read James Connolly.

To those in Sinn Fein and isolated little groups of dissident republicans,not forgetting the Communists and revolutionary socialists,I say,

"Are you not going to spit the bit out. You are being used by idle b.....ds who have drawn the dole every day of their lives and overweight haverils in musical pony troupes. They are ratting on you to police and priests who tell it all back to Gardai and PSNI bigots and strutting martinets who answer to Charles of Saxe-Coburg as head of state."

The Southern Army and its political interventions.Nos

Silly Free State "tradition" is based on agrarian socialism,a web of illusion put up by small farmers and farmers' spokesmen.

 A hoax,a delusion,therefore!

As The British Army in Northern Ireland Volumes 1-3 puts it,"The Irish country people are long on talk and short on information."

Irish city people used to see in Irish country people comrades in the fight for jobs and higher wages. The worldly wise journalist and advocate sees country people's socialism as no more than stubbornness and truculence. The Irish countryman sees in the town dweller a fanatic out to cheat him. His simple notions and transparent deceptions must be met with scorn and contempt. 

 The countryman's reactionary nature is down to a mind full of precipitate nonsense, real-life games of violence and thuggery and conservative mischief.

Why,so?

 Because the country person is a 'cute hoor' who pushes someone from the town into the frontline to take the bullet for him. Those who mix with idiots become like them.

That explains a lot of the tomfoolery elucidated and dramatised in my soliloquoy in July-August 1988 in Rathmines,Dublin,a 'drama' with profound and far-reaching consequences for the Eastern Socialists.

.....

The Southern state since the Programme for National Recovery (1987)

It occurs to me that much social naiveté in relation to the Irish Tories emanates from country people. We think of the shoneen, Bertie Ahern. The source of his clowning with employers and farmers was his lack of real economic insights and of basic intelligence. Ahern presented his crookery with Manchester building firms as help for unemployed emigrants and increasing the Irish Government's influence abroad.

...

16.11.2023

The spaltum created by Leninism between the trade union struggle and the political struggle (Two Tactics of Social Democracy, 1902-3) is dated. Unions are often struggling with falling membership, ageing members and real apathy. 

Politics? 

Today,in many instances in Northern Ireland, people aim to turn to the alternative of going to law.

Other people turn to that fickle type of friend,a politician,for support and mediation because the courts are closed to the majority. 

Why are courts the prerogative of the rich?

 Even with Legal Aid,few can negotiate the perils of the judiciary and the legal profession.

These days,some politicians thrive on a background of no labour organisation having the power or determination to bring them to account. The trade union official is in an ambiguous relation with the politician (Lenin,Left Wing Socialism,an Infantile Disorder,1919). 

However,in the North of Ireland,these days, politicians can do more to help individuals than trade unions but they can only do so because they mediate social differences. Sooner or later, every politician will spurn his or her constituent and ask him or her to go away because at the end of the day none,NONE,are true socialists or working class representatives.

....

Labour is better for jobs and housing, industrial employment and public housing, certainly not private housing.

Take for instance the period of reflation after the labour troubles and strikes of the years 1978-79.

In Northern Ireland industrial employment rose from 210 000(1979) to 230 000 (1981).

Then the wreckers moved in with the demolition ball to destroy our industrial heritage. Because of the reactionary influence of an over-weened police force and a cowboy in the White House the real economy of the West entered a terminal decline.

That decline in Northern Ireland has led to endemic, unreported crime,the triumph of the idler and the waster and the exaltation of the showbiz celebrity and spiv.

.....

A waged worker does not have security of employment. That fact marks the origin of trade unionism (and craft hostility to general workers and the unemployed worker).

The government employee has no need of trade unions and should not be in one because he usually has more than adequate means of economic support. In addition ,he enjoys political solidarity in the form of employer arbitration,civil society support and legal protection.

The craft worker and general worker only unite against government employee when circumstances are pressing and urgent. Those circumstances embrace minimal remuneration to keep living standards up and maintain safe working arrangements and adequate provision for sick leave, unemployment and leisure.

A Labour fool such as Brendan Howlin or Ernest Blythe talks and acts in the manner of the country squire by cutting wages,living standards and social standards. The trimmer is never welcome in labour circles and his nemesis is the general strike when trade unions break free from the halter of a runaway coach. That is symptomatic of a political collapse. 

Eventually nationalist whimsies whether they be from Fine Gael or Fianna Fail or Sinn Fein or country wiseacres prevail and society goes back in time about twenty or thirty years.

The lessons of the past are clear.

Irish Labour Party heads always desert and betray trade unionists and the poor. They clear a path for quack remedy salesmen such as Sinn Fein and independents as they describe themselves. In the latter instance,I refer to Danny Healy-Rae,the Kerry landlord.

......

While there may be very little that can be said in favour of Fianna Fail, under Ahern it led a democratic revolution which laid bare the timbers of the sinking ship of cronyism and nationalism and corruption so beloved of the Catholic Church and GAA. However, those who lament the passing of the age of Lynch, Haughey and Reynolds also lament the passing of the age of terrorism, unrest and emigration and they generally did not favour the economic rebirth of our country.

It  has been led by Fianna Fail,solely and alone with only the occasional prod from others.

Fianna Fail is getting on its feet again after a difficult hiatus .

Even Sinn Fein has become a democratic party and the nationalist element of all parties is in retreat. A country rescued from the scrapheap is set on the path of open government and strict accountability.

That,my good sirs,is a DEMOCRATIC revolution. Not a workers republic but the patient's condition is improving and he is out of a coma (or 'bind').

Peace-building

While honest if loud argument is preferable to the endless verbiage of the bourgeois press and media particularly of middle class dilettantes at the BBC,the third way and the alternative to this peculiarly Irish form of  political clamour and British type of rabble-rousing is sane dialogue between opposing political parties,those being opposing factions within nations and countries at loggerheads.

Trade and peace-building 

What the world's countries are at times getting from the US President is upper class rhetoric aiming at gaining preference for American wares and boosts to the Western domination of poor countries.

11.8.2025

"What your friends in Westminster could see clearly was that the Communist Party in England was a threat to everyone having their say because whatever it is about them,they don't allow people to speak their mind or vote. The Irish Communists are different only in one respect,they deal in drugs like the Provos and Official IRA and they're connected to both of their people on the ground as you call it. If you don't owe them any money,ignore them because they're connected to moneylenders who live off the poor. A lot of their money goes on hiring out halls for balls and galas so don't fool yourself that they would ever give you anything other than a kick on the arse out the door if they don't like you or you ask them to do anything for you apart from kill people. They're good at that, killing people. They believe that they shouldn't pay their debts and that's why they never amount to very much. James Josie Lynch wasn't the only one of them to not pay for work I did for him. An educated man soon gets tired of their old nonsense and hawking and trucking with old rubbish. The Provos learned a lot of their old tricks from the British Army. They were all in it or had some connection to it. The English always come out on top in the end over Free State farmers like them. They're only cowards at the back of all their big talk. When you see them anywhere when they're in employment,they try to get others to do their job for them. John West is typical of the rest of them. He wouldn't work in a fit, neither him nor his brother nor the rest of them."

British trade union officials

It is ONLY THE SOLDIER and WORKER who understands a poor man and a waged worker and only a trade union official who accepts the bona fides of a salaried worker and well-paid public service officer. Only a well-informed judge or socially-minded  clergyman can mediate between workers and employers in intractable labour disputes.

...

The bigger picture in Britain. The Trades Union Congress

 Some blue-collar workers say that salaried public employees and health staff should never have been allowed into the Trades Union Congress. The result,they claim,is the marginalisation of the blue collar worker and watered-down political and social endeavours of the TUC.

Labour and Capital?

 Today,this is a political struggle between waged worker and public servant and higher-up civil servant and well-paid medical consultant.

The self-employed?

Self-employed workers have no opportunity to bargain collectively, create any real social impression or make an impact apart from at political election times when they are amongst the most vociferous of those calling for lower taxes and higher thresholds for social relief.

The phenomenon of falling living  standards and declining economic outcomes?

Social facts are something Labour and Tories know very well. In the 1980's Tory governments and employers tried to not just accelerate capital accumulation but to deskill and reduce the wage-employed to performance-related pay,self-employment and short-time working.

The international dimension

Super-exploitation of the native and foreign workers creates the conditions for absolute  impoverishment, renewed world conflict and open superpower rivalry. The super-exploitation of poor countries is part of the colonial legacy. It is also part of the outworkings of the internal polarisation and industrial decay created by changing economic factors and trade winds. The features of falling living standards were aggravated by Thatcher,Reagan and others.

Continental socialism vs. that old bed-bug of Marx, German university chair socialism  (Kathedersozialismus)

Continental socialism is not very relevant to England because many well-trained and knowledgeable academic, judicial and political luminaries have been student journalists, jurists or barristers without a brief and know only too well the foibles of the 'Frenchies'.

 In the early stages of their working lives and professional careers,those sorts of person had to accept low pay and long hours slaving over a hot computer until internet traffic reached critical mass and the interface closed down. They soon lost their love for the adoption of Marxist sociology. That put any notion of the future Labour types following the Continental path to socialism out of their heads.

Continental socialism and the Labour Party in Britain 

It is fashionable for Anglophone Communists to criticise democratic gains. It is clear to most people that those individuals do not have any real educational grounding in modern political thinking or real connections to the working class. 

 Ireland

The Official Communists in Ireland belong to the class of fellow travellers of Maoists and opportunists. For proof,listen to one of them who dare not speak his real name,Richard Boyd Barrett.

...

American politics. The US role in super- exploitation

The US is an imperialist state,the behemoth of world exploitation and crafted imperialist designs. Workers are left with almost no protection  outside the trade unions and Democratic Party. US politicians and generals are the main obstacle to world socialism. US politics is founded on weak social conceptualisation and its politicians embrace the political abandonment of the sick and poor. Cultural phenomena spur the US to moral abandonment and reckless endangerment of its own citizenry. Imperialist wars and counter-insurgency campaigns lead to acts of random violence at home and wars of aggression and mass murder abroad. These actions are indicative of a morally-endangered and violent society. They are partly aggravated by industrial decline. 

.... 

And,there are signs,everywhere,of industrial societies,modern  countries and advanced states slipping into a deathly silence about the slow passing away of ordered charity in the West.

.....

Therefore,we say,the future belongs to the East.

The relative eclipse of the West is upon us. Despite this fact,wars of aggression are being stirred up by Britain and America. In England and the US,the imperialists and President's Office play the lead role in the repression of dissenting voices such as those of us who want peace.

The NHS and the state socialist designs crafted by British university heads?

Utter nonsense with a resonance for quasi-autonomous government organisations alone.

I refer primarily to the NHS. 

Public health inside Britain?

No symmetry,no matching options,only grand designs crafted for non-entities in political middle management, being the work of fickle social engineers and economic designers who never go on strike or join a political party or a trade union.

The gist of my message about revolutionary change in Britain?

Left-wing partisans in fringe journalism harp on about things they don't understand such as the cash demands of our medical dictatorship. They are not truly cognisant of  the real workings of modern, post-Fall society or of the proper functioning of state health and business concerns. They fail to see in the latter  the whimsies of the rich and powerful.

.....

Continental socialism in the Soviet Union (1917-1918) before central planning

Lenin realised the shortcomings of industrial  trusts,entirely publicly-owned, whose formulations German doctrinaires had created in the 1880's. After 1919 and more so in the 1930's,others puzzled over the attempt to outpace the Soviets by firstly their American and then their Nazi counterpose.

But to wrap up with some practical advice for working people not familiar with British and Continental political history,I say,openly and publicly as someone who worked in the land of state intervention,Germany.

Langsam,aber sicher. Arbeiter,wehrt euch gegen schlechte Handlung. Mach mit die Gewerkschaften! 

Slow,but sure! Workers,protect yourself against bad treatment and pay no heed to idle mouthpieces. Join a trade union or,better still,the British or Irish Labour Party and Keep Left!

The brutal and merciless doctrines of either fascism,Nazism or Marxism have no place in any civilised country.

The question of terrorism

It is easy for me to mock,never having had to stand for elective office in any organisation other than one which has now dissolved itself in keeping with its own rules and procedures.

The path taken by my ageing generation was a path to ruin being pursued today in Sudan and elsewhere,one of left-wing extremism.

Left-wing extremism? Ireland,I hear you ask?

Yes,the Provos were that most radical of types,left nationalists. They behaved then as they behave now by calling for open-ended welfare payments and low taxes on small business and property tax exemptions. They have no grasp of financial probity or wider fiscal reality.

The use of violence is one thing no true Continental socialist can be accused of not having a ready answer to. He answers in the negative,firmly against.

Apart from the occasional priest who you meet once in a blue moon,you will never find anyone in public Establishment circles who included the actions of the IRA in the framework of a just war.

The sooner the Irish people part with illusions as I had to in 1989,the sooner they will be free of ubiquitous nationalist verse and song bowdlerised from the Scots and French by people such as myself (The 'play', July-August 1988,Dublin). The sooner they will throw of the language of cultural nationalism (and special interest pleading) which ennervates and bedevils this island nation of ours in equal measure.

No to national exclusiveness! No to terrorism! No to cultural autonomy for special interest groups!

Continental socialism was shot down at the TUC Annual Conference in 1882 (see Introduction to the Communist Manifesto).

In Russia, Marx and Engels saw hope in the agricultural commune as a future model for socialism (the kolkhoz) (Introduction to the Communist Manifesto).

In Britain the social gains have all been made by the Labour Party which expelled the Communists in 1925. That occurred after the publication of the Zinoviev Letter. The Zinoviev  Letter fracas was a secret police hoax.

In Ireland socialism is modelled on syndicalism. Trade unions and the Labour Party led some of the process of social amelioration and labour regulation. The Church looked on from the sidelines aghast at any talk of society and class and abandoned all contact with its own pet croney concerns after the 1970's . That occurrence was due to failing interest in Christian worship.Those matters which it referred to in its schools as Civics or The National Issue.

 Due to its grip on the education system,the Church prevailed on the poor farmers and Sinn Fein's urban followers to vote against anything socialist. Its leading supporters became the public representatives of Fianna Fail and Fine Gael. Those parties successfully agitated to their own followers and urban workers to make Fianna Fail the champion of public services such as health,housing and a fairer division of social wealth and Fine Gael the shouters for the law and order brigade.

....

British Judaism or Reaction is not a proper foundation for the running or executive management of any country or trade union. It leads to nationalist socialist revanchism and sitting-it-out when action is required and key initiatives are being debated.
