Very serious charges at the Met

I haven't seen too much crowing in cyberspace about the demise of part-time Ridley Scott lookalike and full-time shit copper Ian Blair earlier this week


Sir Ian Blair


The problem is, I think, the fact that there's a very strong possibility that Blair is going to be replaced by someone even more reactionary than he is

Whilst undoubtedly perplexing for those of us who have issues with Blair because he repeated untruths about JCdM, blocked the investigation into JCdM's execution and was an enthusiastic and high-profile booster of the nonsense War on Terror fairytale, the biggest criticism of Blair promoted by the establishment media was that he was 'too PC' and too soft on potential evil doers

Not that I personally expect Blair's successor to be that different from Blair

Conspiratorial thinking aside, it's a plain fact of Life that the people who rise to the top of large institutions usually do so not because of any technical ability they might have but because they have mastered internal politics or have been mentored by masters of internal politics

If you're busy trying to do your job properly there's no way you've got the time to get stuck into the serious business of putting the shaft into your fellow team members

And the bigger the organisation the more scope there is for dead weight, non accountability and parasitism

The Metropolitan Police, and every other large, centralised organisation, all the way up to old favourites such as the EU, the UN and the big corporate cartels are and always will be Institutionally, and inherently, Corrupt

and you don't need to be a Conspiraloon to acknowledge this

and then, popping my Conspiraloon hat back on, you've got to admit that stuffing the special duties sections of our police forces with serial shaggers and the kind of dishonest fuckers who have no qualms about getting beered up on tens of thousands of public money does make for a very malleable security establishment doesn't it

and if that doesn't work it's nothing an ill-fated camping holiday or Sunday afternoon stroll in the woods can't solve

People still think the police will solve crime by enforcing weapon bans though. They just don't know the level of corruption inherent in the forces upper echelons, mostly because it goes unreported or is barely mentioned on TV news.

I can't be well - I just realised I wrote a post about police corruption and didn't sneak in a single crafty reference to freemasonry

Heh, I believe Icke said something like 600 officers were masons?

Stef said...

there's been a lot of talk that certain categories of crime have fallen in London since Blair took office (was it really only) 3 years ago

burglary for instance

my suspicion is that our gratitude should be directed more towards Asian sweatshop workers, heroin smugglers and the credit card companies for driving the cost of essential street goods down and providing easy financing options rather than Commissioner Twuntboy

Recorded crime rates. Even if they're true, as you said people have been living on easy credit for a while now...

I was always taught to be cautious but I think a fair and square estimate would be a lot higher than that level

I was referencing him as making that statement, I have no idea of the real number.

Stef said...

I reckon there'll be a 33 in it somewhere

Its interesting that the bank troubles started on the 7th anniversary of the WTC\Pentagon attacks isn't it?

You use any IM networks stef? I prefer to hold conversations over that than sections designated for comments :)

Nope

Never mind then.

I know this is probably better suited to the post below, but what the hell:

Seems the EU will have its own version of a business "bailout" which will have other legal tidbits hidden in it...
