Britain is not dense, lefties

If CF ever finds himself calming down, becoming less enraged, a quick visit to the deluded lefties over at Liberal Conspiracy usually gets the old piss boiling again.

And sure enough, the pile of arse entitled "Not-racists and the ‘England Is Full’ meme" got CF's blood pressure back to hypertension levels in no time.

In it, poor fool John B loftily informs us about the..

".. tactics that opponents of immigration use to portray themselves as motivated by factors other than racism .. another popular one is “we’d love to take more people, but we’re full”.

"An obvious retort to the definitely-not-racist person raising this point is “err, the UK has the 51st highest population density in the world .. This can be suffixed with “, you dolt” if required.

"This is unlikely to convince most not-racist types ... because complex mathematical concepts such as ‘population density’ are, somewhat ironically, beyond them. But in the eyes of an impartial observer, you’ve basically won"

To which nonsense, CF would reply: what a load of specious bollocks. Population density? Who gives a fucking shit?

One commenter actually points out, possibly tongue-in-cheek, that..

".. if Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland all reached England’s population density (without England’s increasing) we could hold a population of 96,605,572?

As society has not fallen apart in England with our circa 1020 head per km2 popualtion density, this is the upper limit for which it is safe to reach and so around 95 million is the safe upper limit we can work with"

But this really is the argument John B is trying to make: 'there's plenty of room left in Britain, so only a racist wouldn't want to share'.

Crap. Who cares whether they've got a whole square kilometre to wander about in, or just a couple of square metres?

CF does care if he can’t get on an overcrowded train, if his kids are in classes of 45, if he can’t get to see a dentist, if he can’t get round the M25 in less than 3 hours, if he can't be treated in A&E inside 3 fucking hours, or he can’t find a policeman when he needs one.

While we might have the physical space to go to 95 million population, or whatever, we certainly don’t have enough of virtually any-fucking-thing else, do we?

And pointing that out makes CF a 'racist' does it? Fuck right off.

What we don't want - what we absolutely do not want - is a deluded bunch of socialists 'investing' a whole load more money in infrastructure and public services, just to support a huge immigration-fueled growth in population.

We're not exactly in Utopia with the current enormous expenditure for the current population, are we?

And as for your sad, sardonic little "not-racists" crap, John B, you can shove that right up your big, presumably white, preposterously liberal arse.

Come the revolution, we'll cap bankers' bonuses


Whining socialist Billy Bragg is giving us all the benefit of his opinions yet again.

Stephen William 'Billy' Bragg, senior figure in Leftie Luvvie circles, has threatened to stop paying taxes, and - revolution, Brothers! - called on others to follow suit, unless the government acts to limit bonuses paid by the Royal Bank of Scotland.

Of course, as you would expect, there's the fucking inevitable Facebook campaign, where Bragg whines..

"I understand that the Treasury had little choice but to use taxpayers' money to safeguard savings and stabilise and restore confidence in the financial system"

Oh, you 'understand' that, do you, Billy? It sounds more like you were fed that line by one of Gordon's little spin doctors.

'To safeguard savings and .. restore confidence': not exactly revolutionary talk, is it? Oh, and you forgot to mention 'hard working families': mind you, Gordo's handwriting is a bit flaky; perhaps you couldn't read that bit.

Bragg bleats on:

"What I don't understand is why, now that we taxpayers are the majority shareholders of these banks, we seem totally powerless to curb their excessive bonus culture?"

Well, Billy mate, without wishing to explain the whole of capitalism to you, it's usually the case that the shareholders want the companies they own to succeed.

One way to do this is to ensure that they have motivated staff, who are compensated at normal industry levels, do you see?

And generally, Bill, something shareholders - at least, those in their right minds, and without an overriding political agenda - would not normally do is to damage the company they have a stake in by pissing off key staff with some mindless political stunt to please blinkered lefties like you.

If you really want to drag politics into every aspect of a company's operations, and run it so it makes massive, crushing losses but ticks all of your Socialist Utopia boxes, then you have to nationalize it. And, thank Christ, even the Labour party aren't that stupid.

"I have written to the Chancellor of the Exchequer .. Alistair Darling, to inform him that I am no longer prepared to fund the excessive bonuses of RBS investment bankers.


You're not funding them, you fucking idiot. This isn't like your beloved public sector, where our money is directly funneled into the pockets of the employees.

"Unless he acts to limit them to 25,000 pounds, I shall be withholding my tax payment on 31st January."

Hang on. What? Why 25,000 pounds? Surely you're against bonuses in principle? Why is 25 OK, and, say, 30 not? You're just making this shit up as you fucking go along, aren't you?

Stick to the nasal dirges, Billy: you're good at those.

++UPDATE++: The Daily Mash, as ever, has nailed it:

"A spokesman for the Inland Revenue said: "I've actually got a copy of Talking With the Taxman About Poetry. Maybe he should do a new album called Talking With the Taxman About Spending 18 Months in Jail for Being a Marxist Twat."
