Man in a Shed: The real security threat

The real security threat

Just read an excellent, and reasoned speech from Paul Goodman MP ( Con Wycombe ) given in the debate on the Queens speech. Melanie Phillips quotes it whole on her blog here.

This is the sort of thing Parliament should be all about. It also homes in on the type of threat Islamism ( as Paul Goodman calls it ) or Islamo Fascism ( as I think is more appropriate ).

Paul Goodman makes clear that it is not the traditional Islam in Britain he is talking about, but the new wave of Islamism. He is the Conservative MP with the largest muslim population. So you can be sure his words have been carefully judged and considered.

They are a group which it is totally impossible to integrate. It is so-called moderate islam which is a perversion of true islam, and there are not too many followers of this new invention that bush and blair believe in.

The pound in your pocket

"We used to think that you could spend your way out of a recession and increase employment by cutting taxes and boosting government spending. I tell you in all candour that that option no longer exists." James Callaghan

“The trouble with theoretical economists is that they don't understand that when you have a deficit, you can only finance it by borrowing, and you've got to persuade people that it's worth lending money to you and that they'll get their money back... there's no way of escaping it.” Dennis Healey during the 1976 Stirling Crisis.

"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the Capitalist System was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens ... Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of over-turning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose." John Maynard Keynes, 1920.

"To preserve [the people's] independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our selection between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude." Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States of America,1801-1809.
