How much are our rulers elected?

I wrote this in answer to a forum question, and something we all need to know in Britain:

The sum total of who makes our rules is on a sliding scale of election. The MPs themselves have been covered, while the powers of the unelected lords are negligible unless appointed as ministers. But most of our new laws (eg the latest deregulating of postage prices) are made by the EU, and as such we must consider who votes for them? Their structure is on two main levels, the parliament and the commission. To be honest I don't actually know the legislative power of the parliament as the little research I have done appears to indicate they discuss existing decisions made by the commission and little else. Unless someone can put me right I am wondering if they can do anything at all. But the EU regulations are made by the commission directly, they are unelected and can stay for many years as they are civil servants given the role of legislators, instantly breaking the rule of separation of powers.

As a result they are free to legislate pretty well unhindered, and there is a further ability above and beyond where they can meet and draft material in private and their records are not open to the public. As this is their primary role (legislature and executive combined) I am as I say unsure if the parliament do any more than the Queen or presidents of countries like Ireland, as the actual regulations originate from above them and don't know if they can even amend them let alone veto any.

Above the EU is the UN. in 1991 they wrote Agenda 21 for sustainability, and as such every member state is bound by the regulations, usually applied through local councils through the body titled ICLEI. Fortnightly bin collections,  compulsory recycling, road narrowing and restricting new parking spaces are all influenced directly by Agenda 21 as one plank is to reduce dependence on private transportation, hence EU plans to ban cars from city centres and flight taxes. So one can say that at the scope of the UN and Agenda 21 (all unelected) there is no accountability, or with anything which comes from the EU as once joined and new treaties accepted we have signed away greater and greater functions previously assigned to our elected parliaments, if you read about any new laws or regulations like the postal charges just check the source and you'll find most are direct from the EU and only applied by our parliament.

Education, education, education

My knowledge of world economics, focusing on the EU as that is my location, has not unearthed any conspiracy theory, but a system which favours a handful and steals from the others to do so.
The whole affair is pretty well dictated by UN Agenda 21, dressed up for the environment but containing the mechanisms to bring down everyone's standard of living, and the population, while redistributing their wealth to the leaders and their friends and associates. This is now well into its stride and after the energy taxes we've been paying now for years (petrol would be 82p a litre without them for example, not 1.32p) food had to be next as if you keep them hungry and poor you can pretty well carry out anything else you like as they will be too weak and busy surviving to stop you.

I don't think it's ever too late to stop them. At the moment 99.9% of people aren't aware of these plans, and most who are reject them as a conspiracy. Our fuel taxes and renewable subsidies aren't a conspiracy, they're the 2008 Climate Change Act. VAT on food isn't a subsidy, it is an EU working document. A world currency is not a conspiracy, the plans are already drawn up by the UN. All this is already going through while people still worry about which Miliband brother should lead Labour. I don't want to get myself targeted, but that's a bit like worrying which pile of dog poop you want to tread in. Enough said. So while everyone's busy reading what the papers do want us to know and watching ice melt all day on the BBC (if you channel hop it's virtually possible 24/7) the plans are already some way to controlling us all not from the EU but the UN itself.

I have written a single article on this, virtually everything I say and a lot more is included, and not a single publication has touched it. I doubt all but one who asked to see it (and took no notice when it did) have even bothered to look as they must get heaps of this sort of stuff and only publish what their staff and their friends write, and see no need to write further on related topics as the direct plan to invent a problem of man made warming to create a world tax and currency pretty well covers all the smaller areas in itself. The banks being fed almost free money despite losing it all last time continues to sap the world's economy and prevent any recovery as they can still manipulate the market with ghost bids, short sell commodities they can't deliver if lost, lend five times more than the standard amount they should hold in deposits despite risking default if enough people cash their accounts, do not have to separate customers' money and their own for trading purposes, can still sell mortgages of 100%, etc etc., all held up by interest rates 5% below the market requirement, which mean anyone who has worked for decades can no longer pay all their bills on retirement as investments can't guarantee more than a few percent, well under inflation.

You can teach most people basic economics if they want to learn, my problem is not they can't follow all this, but no one wants to. That is how and why it is still happening. I actually believe just my single article (with maybe a page of the economics of market manipulation based on the structure of the mafia) is enough to show everyone that their governments are working for the same ends, pretty much the opposite of what they say they are doing, and as working on a majority vote the few honest dissenters are always cancelled out. So you don't need everyone to be dishonest, just those with the power to make policy. And people can't say they haven't noticed it now. Energy prices across the board have more than doubled regardless of wholesale prices. And if they manage to get VAT on food then everyone will pay 20% more for it overnight. That will drop Britain a good few places on the richest country list instantly as the power of the same income will be reduced accordingly so we will be drifting towards Poland and once the petrol taxes come in again in August maybe the Poles will start leaving and British people will head there to work instead. It's all relative and Britain is getting relatively poorer.


Some economic disasters are unavoidable, oil shortages, strikes and the like. But low interest rates and high taxes are not out of control outside events, they are policies. The same policies which caused he crash the last time and unchanged since. Who can spend your money better, you or the government? And they can't even spend it on railways and water pipes now as they don't own them. So besides the NHS and benefit payments, a huge amount of government spending vanished when they sold off the public services. And why train and bus fares are now the highest in the world. Those two alone should tell people all they need to know, but the Post Office will follow when they find a way to do it, and Air Traffic Control if they didn't do that already and I missed it. So basically we have the lightning strike, the act of god, and then the flood, and the differences are whether or not you can be insured for them as to the consequences. But the low interest rates and travel taxes are not acts of god, but had David Icke been right acts of the devil. Someone has chosen to impose these austerity measures on us all and actually make the vast majority of the population poorer. Of course the kickbacks to energy companies and EU mafiosi mop this excess cash up continuously, and like a tapeworm continue to collect a portion of our wealth and for all I know may even cause segments to come out in our shit. But these are all concrete planned methods to cause a worse economic problem for nearly everyone when they don't have to.


All prices are driven up by fuel costs so the money the government gain in the short term is lost in the long term as people simply have less to spend and the retailers net less overall as more has gone on energy. They then have to lay people off so more claim benefits and don't buy things and it just feeds on itself like cancer. House prices go up as interest rates are so low, so mean people spend more on them anyway as the principal is higher before the interest is added. O level maths, maybe even primary school if my own experience is anything to go by. If you add the sale price and total interest paid over the 25 years or whatever then a graph used by all mortgage brokers shows you the comparison between higher prices and lower interest rates. But when you come to buy it becomes obvious. And over 25 years throughout history interest rates pretty well even out from high to low, and probably still will over the same period ahead. But the selling price is fixed the day you buy it, and you pay interest on that so if it's higher then the total interest will be higher regardless of rates as it's 5% of a higher number for the term of the mortgage. Obvious when pointed out but missed by the wallies who spend £250,000 on a house at 5% when they may well not be able to cope when it hits 7% let alone 12. If they spent £200,000 at 7% or so they would pay more for the first few years, and then less and less as it is only a percentage of 200,000 and is just as likely to go down in the future whereas if you buy when low can only pay more ahead.


Governments know exactly who gains and loses from their policies, and as well as using fuel everyone has to live somewhere. So put house prices up even more by lowering interest rates then people will all be poorer. Except those who buy and sell them for a living. So 100% of people live somewhere, less those on the streets and the like, while a few percent are property developers or estate agents, who get a percentage for selling whether high or low, and valuers. So utilitarianism (benefitting the most people overall) is not part of modern politics. High house prices help a few groups of business people. High fuel prices help even fewer as the energy companies still have to buy everything affected by inflation including their own fuel. Only the top executives make so much they clear a massive profit, plus the oil sheiks, while everyone else can't. So high fuel prices hurt more people than any other policy, yet is the greatest source of revenue for the British government and increasing annually. It's just a shame maybe 100 people will read this hear than a million or more in a newspaper. I am ready.

2011 roundup

Having thought of what I did last year basically it was my photo project, taking new photos for the mapping site as far and wide as possible. That was enough really in itself as got me to many places old and new I hadn't seen for ages where I had. I got a good number of old road signs as well, mainly found by other people or come across completely by chance. The news and politics slightly improved, with our Tory government finally doing something you'd expect from the party, vetoing the new EU treaty and attempting to halve solar panel subsidies but stopped from doing so in court. But at least they have begun some real changes from the London borough of Haringey style government we'd had for almost as long as I remember. That celebrates wrongness and is terrified of all personal freedom as being collectivist individual freedoms threaten the collective, make some people richer than others, and lets them spread information that could break individuals from the soviet style ranks. It's a very small step towards freedom and can only hope this year circumstances force greater changes as none will be made voluntarily.

Of course a year is only a number so can't assess anything on arbitrary criteria, but otherwise I seem to have been busier than I have for years, mainly as more of my energy is coming back, and if nothing else have started going out for tea and the odd cafe with friends again which was something I always used to, only avoiding restaurants, as I like to eat when I sit down and not approaching the next day. If I want to eat I don't intend to spend an unmeasurable time talking to people and then receive the meal at a random range of 5 minutes (Chinese restaurant, Surbiton) to 2 hours (Greek restaurant, Mill Hill, 18th birthday). Having a meal lottery to me is pretty much like being a hostage, and besides the Turkish places where they make it in front of you almost as soon as you order the others remain only acceptable if self service. I never liked pubs as it was like sitting in a working class person's lounge with the whole of the street turning up. Why would I want to do that? Now the handful of decent places near me are all blocks of flats or derelict/vacant lots, and the others which were just tolerable or not that local have become restaurants with a tiny pub area tucked away and prices three times higher than before. Waste of time there as well then.

Looking ahead, as I've pretty well exhausted behind, there is no specific plan or expectation ahead, I will keep writing, as one article was published in 2010 I know it can be done, and wrote a heap last year but no more success as yet. My prediction (based on the fact the whole thing has been planned from start to finish) is the Euro will be kept alive at all costs, as the EU can write the law to suit them and collect money in the same way. The value will fall as will cause greater inflation, but they don't care as long as they can still rule us without an election (who runs Greece and Italy now? EU bureacrats, the Greek leader and the entire Italian cabinet. One or two more to follow won't surprise me either, maybe Portugal and Spain when their debts keep growing. I have learnt enough about politics now to be able to see the big picture, and it's basically money moving around from taxes to the bankers and their friends, national laws being overridden by EU and UN regulations, and a small group of individuals making the same policies in all the countries who hold influence. No coincidence they've all chosen left wing Keynesian inflationary economics, low interest rates and devalued currency, regardless of the governments, as banks can borrow at almost zero and then gamble millions on a deal that makes a few thousand, but still higher than the interest they paid to borrow the money. Do that every day and you get an awful lot over a year.

Climategate 2 was the highlight of the year though, after the new IPCC report doubled the levels of uncertainty in the climate the big guns arrived and unlike the first had complete conversations about the inadequacy of modelling and how to hide information that didn't fit 'the cause'. Every other issue dealt with in this way would have produced a state investigation and suspension for all involved, but as this was carried out on behalf of the states who ordered the work to be done, they can't prosecute themselves. So nothing happened, but the world can now see clearly how little confidence the scientists really have in their data, as they are paid to produce it, not to believe it. And if that's how they run guess how all the other areas do. If nothing else the global warming machine has allowed me the material to learn and understand the big picture, a world mafia with an international secret committee and national branches plus the EU which is rooted and branched with the actual mafia itself and run the identical way. People who haven't worked it out don't want to know so pretty well can only learn for myself and let the facts come out on their own, as only facts can come out from under covers, not anything else.

My main daily blog is now on another site as blogger has pretty well dried up in the last couple of years. I had 50 hits a day when I first got the counter, now I'm lucky to get 10, most people I followed stopped posting and only had one person making comments this year from what I can remember. But as long as people still do visit I'll keep writing, and as this is my site I can say what I like unlike the other one. It's still a long way off but America will be having its IQ test later this year, Obama has managed to drag the country half way to the third world and as it has what I'd consider the most informed voters in the world and greatest freedom how could they vote for socialism? "Energy prices will be higher" he said on arrival, and he delivered. Who would announce and admit that before it happened? Most politicians intent on price rises would lie and then apologise profusely for world conditions (like Gordon Brown did) when it all went tits up. He actually said he was going to do it! Then he made CO2 a pollutant, dictionary definition 'a noxious substance in an unwanted place that ought to be removed', so go ahead Yannick, try and remove all the nasty CO2, it would kill everything except a few bacteria but at least the planet will be clean. To end the entry all I can say is 'What a cunt'.

Rome is burning

Meanwhile Rome is figuratively burning, as the future of individual EU countries is about to be signed away tomorrow, with the potential fate of Italy to follow us all by having our governments replaced by unelected EU officials, many from the very banks that wrecked the world economy- three alone are from Goldman Sachs. That's pretty much like allowing the most successful thieves in a country to join the cabinet as in financial terms they are qualified to do the same for the country. That means Nick Leeson could soon become our prime minister if anything happens to Cameron like being offered something better on the continent. He's clearly working for the other side (ie Axis powers) as he's said he's putting the survival of the Euro over all other considerations. As he's in charge no one under him has a single chance to challenge it.

So by the weekend the EU will be run by the Axis, Germany, France (they were not really against the nazis, they were roughly split in practice, the resistance probably evened out by the collaborators from what I've learnt), with Italy swinging sides as usual. Everywhere else will simply do as they're told, with the rules coming from the top whatever government happens to be in charge, pretty much what the last two wars attempted to do unsuccessfully. Germany, to their credit, know how to run a country, and if we were all run the same way would probably have never had a recession. However, in a democracy they would travel the world teaching others how to do the same, much like the better parts of the British Empire, than simply taking us over.

The new totalitarian state

A democracy is a political organisation where every qualified individual has the regular opportunity to choose who represents them. The EU is slowly taking over the functions of individual governments, and has now reached the point it is about to impose restrictions not seen since the fall of the Soviet Union and worse. Had they been democratic the people would have objected, and voted such measures out at the next election, problem over. But the EU policies are not made by the European Parliament (I'm still not quite sure what they do do but that's another issue) but the permanent EU Commission. They debate in private and do not require published minutes, all we usually know about it is when they announce their latest policies.

So, as the EU have reached the point where they make the majority of decisions in Britain at least then whatever we vote for we always get the same, and have no means of redress or accountability. That actually means all EU members are in the start (or worse) of a totalitarian state. For example no EU member state can actually choose on carbon reduction programmes, they are compulsory. Commodity prices mainly in the area of food are set by the EU by holding back goods and paying producers not to produce. In individual countries this would normally be illegal but in the EU it's de rigeur and always was. Protectionism and price fixing are also indicative of totalitarianism, so they qualify on that count as well. And with the imminent removal of rail subsidies, road pricing and banning cars altogether in cities can you think of a single country who would have actually voted such measures in? Or one with a constitution allowing them if they were attempted?

World domination has come

I wonder how many people here have been blogging for nearly 7 years (it would have been longer had I know of this site earlier) without a gap- none of the people I read at the start even have blogs mainly let alone add to them, and most of the ones I've followed since haven't posted in months or years. I do find more at Facebook myself now as well as blogging on a small site where I know everyone as well as this, but it's in the archives and Sky-Hi Lee is still one of the only mentions of him on the web and gets regular hits, like my main site which was built to fill spaces where other data hadn't been posted anywhere else.

I am currently in the first stages of my latest spiritual work, but one I believe to be capable of delivery. I'll mention more if there's more to mention but the results seem to be fairly hard to question so far. In the material world I've been making long photo runs a few times a week now this year, and starting to run out of reasonable trips within my current capabilities. No doubt something else will turn up and as long as I've completed that mission will be quite happy as it is. The news outside is dismal, on the verge of a nuclear disaster in Japan, not if but when of course as it's a monster only safe while contained. And the bill do decommission our own in the UK came out today, many billions over decades to mop up any savings while they were working. Madness.

Otherwise we have Libya, where the whole Arab world operates in more or less the same way (as they are today) simply replacing one savage dictator and regime with another as that is their personal version of government and should be left to rot in their own filth. Many who do object to such regimes do not challenge them but escape and come here and similar places like Norway and Canada who revel in welcoming refugees from around the world regardless of quality and room available (precisely zero in the UK for one). Despite fraud cropping up in virtually every graph the global warming wars are ploughing ahead full speed- the EU will ban cars from cities now by 2050, confirming their total hatred of freedom and in fact turning Europe tomorrow into exactly the same as the Arab world today. Indeed, instead of trying to raise the Arabs up to our current level (as if it was possible) in fact we are falling towards theirs and the Chinese levels of totalitarian collectivism and god help all of us if they complete this mission.
