D Notice = In this Day and Age!

Guy Fawkes Blog: Reports that the UK Government has placed a block on the UK media reporting on what is about to be released by WikiLeaks, a D - Notice. As this blog is all for National Security one would expect one not to report a D - Notice, but in this day and age, will it work, if in the Oval Office and 10 Downing Street would be asking why the CIA and MI6 didn’t prevent these leaks in the first place. This blog will not report military secrets no matter what, but should some juicy diplomatic secrets come along and they are reported in the US as in the liberal New York Times then that is pushing sanity beyond this blog’s ability to conform. Lets see who breaks the stories, very hard to prevent news getting out these days folks.

The Secrets of War

The Daily Mail: Reports that WikiLeaks has more US secrets to release to the general public. One has to ask what is the CIA or MI6 doing to stop these State secrets being released, this blog is all for freedom of information but while Wars are still going there is a need for secrecy, thus years after a conflict comes to an end then its good to get the information out but these leaks might lead to negative diplomatic and military consequences, the article states that the Coalition PM David Cameron has been informed of the content of these leaks, lets hope there is nothing in the cupboard that needs to kept there. You cant have a War if the other side gets your secrets before the political leaders.

Labour vs. Labour over AV VOTE - Civil War

Guardian: Reports on the split in the Labour Party between Ed Miliband the new Labour Leader and leading Labour ex Cabinet Ministers from the Blair and Brown years, the issue is the AV vote, “ Red - Brutus “ Miliband supports AV, the Labour Establishment headed by David Blunkett says NO. If you believe that one vote counts as much as another vote you will oppose AV, a BNP vote ( a Racist Party ) would be worth more than one vote, as in AV the voter for example can state a preference of 1234 etc, thus if the BNP is 4 and after the first round of voting their votes are shared to other parties, thus more important than those that get 1st choice. THUS TO STOP RACIST VOTERS, VOTE AGAINST AV.

Pressure on Portugal ?

Telegraph: Reports that Portugal is coming under pressure to accept a EU/IMF bailout as way to save Spain from going down the drain. Thus its very ironic to this old political cynic that Irish, and now Portugal leaders it seems are willing to finish their political careers to keep the French and Germans happy, what was the point of World War One and Two! That was a joke folks up to a point, the problem is folks is that the European Elite of politicians have bought a dud, that being the EURO, they have over sold it, most of them see Europe as the next stage of their political careers, lets recall the Dark Prince after being booted out of the Cabinet twice later went on to work in Europe before coming back to serve under PM Gordon Brown. Lets also recall Europe is good for the bank balance for ex politicians, it’s a gravy train, that is why the like Europe, the people that suffer are the electors. Thus will the good people of Portugal allow Berlin to run their Country.

The EU and Portugal

BBC News: Reports that both the EU and Portugal has denied that a bailout is in the works after the bailout of Ireland. This could be true folks, do politicians ever lie ?, but also lets look at the case of Ireland, for a very long time Ireland denied it needed a bailout but was forced by the EU to take a bailout as its debts had caused Portugal and Spain to pay more for leading from the bond market. The Irish bailout is on a cliff folks, its open to question if the Irish Parliament will pass the needed austerity package that was a condition of the EU/IMF bailout. Thus it can be argued that the bond markets will bet against Portugal and that Portugal will also need a bailout, money talks folks, greed is good!
