ARE YOU A SLAVE



Since most people know its been 200 years since the supposed abolition of the slave trade it is quite refreshing that some one 'Toyin Abegtu' has spoken out for numerous muted black people, most shamefully, black politicians in the UK on the effects of slavery and the shameful nature of the 'celebration' of the abolition. When you have ridiculous, propagandist and outwardly stereotypical and 'racist' programmes showing such as 'The Last Slave' by Channel 4 in 2007 UK then you know there is a problem. Black people in this nation need to wake up a break the mental, economic and behavioural slavery that we are still under today. Until the harsh truths of slavery are dealt with by all citizens in this nation regardless of colour or ethnicity then we will continue to have ten year old black kids being murdered, black kids underachieving in education, a skewed 'hip hop' gangster mentality that is endemic with both black and white youth today. When a society (Blacks youths in the UK) only have African American musicians and British sports men and sports women as their primary role models then you know we have a llllllllooooooooooooooonnnnnnnggggggggg (African accent) way to go. I pray that God will cause a stir that will bring change. Believe me change is coming in this nation that has lost its morals, fails to apologise for the past organised subjugation of other races and has adopted modernity and materialism as its religion.
The REVOLUTION shall be OMNIPRESENT

Obituary
Common Sense

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.

He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as knowing when to come in out of the rain, why the early bird gets the worm, life isn't always fair, and maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you earn) and reliable parenting strategies (adults, not children are in charge).

His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a six-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job they themselves failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer Aspirin, sun lotion or a sticky plaster to a student; but could not inform the parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became
contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims. Common Sense took a beating when you
couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar can sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to
realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap,
and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason. He is survived by three stepbrothers; I Know my Rights, Someone Else is to
Blame, and I'm a Victim.

Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.

Crazy Day in Parliament

The HUB



Yep I made it, I got my lazy ass out of Bed and got to work on time. The chap who kind of supervises us was on holiday so the office was being run by myself and Micheal an IRISH confused, irritable though good person, Labour party faithful, conservative party hater and most importantly as he puts it himself a TONY lover (for those who don't know that is our own uncle tony BLAIR). As the saying goes or so , when the wolf goes away the chicks come to play and boy did he want to play today - more like be the boss and the MP that he is in his mind by trying to delegate to me - what a goat i had to control myself and shut him down quick time or else the office my acerbic retorts might have set the office on fire.

Watch out for this guy one day he will back stab
other politicians

Anyway that was not the highlight of the day ...;.......Something crazy always happens in the corridors of power but today was a bit of an exception, the madness wasn't outside our door today but outside our window. Our office is on parliament street and in fact is number 1 parliament street so u can imagine the noise that filters through the windows when there are demonstrations - to days special was served in the form of some folks from SOMALI LAND

Small gathering of Somalians after protest in front of No 1 Parliament Street!
WE share the office with the staff of Bristol MP Kerry McCarthy who's constituency has a large population of Somalians. She went down to Parliament square to lend her support and when she returned boy did she have a story to tell.

A mundane trip to 'show her face' was transformed into an extraordinary event by former World Boxing Champion, BRITAIN'S one and only black eccentric and Boxer MR CHRIS EUBANK. Whilst in the office what sound like a loud continuous horns from a truck was simply written off as part of the the protest. However upon Kerry McCarthy's return to the office we were enlightened that Mr Eubank had instigated a protest of his own and utilised his monster 32ft Truck with a banner protesting the eminent sending of prince Harry to IRAQ. He speed up and down the road until he felt it was time for an encore, like any man used to applause Mr Eubank simply had to hijack the Somali protest, with one crazy move he stops his truck in literally in the middle of the city right on the main street outside TONY's crib and runs into the 100 or so protesters who gladly rewarded with applause and cheers for his cameo role.The bemused crowd simply went on with the charade without even knowing who he was until the 'KOTI' - POLICE came for him. The whole story just cracks me up so much considering this is not the first time he has pulled something like this off... See below for link to video and articles.
PEACE AND GOD BLESS Y@LL
