I don't recall a time when I've been so depressed by the state of my country.
I watched the Prime Minister on PMQs yesterday and listened to him on the radio today. I listened to Miliband on the radio trying to justify the exclusion of Geert Wilders. Jacqui Smith has been caught with her nose in the trough.
Has there ever been a time when the three great offices of state have been occupied by such shallow, worthless individuals?
And who does the BBC field to speak about Geert Wilders? Lord Ahmed and Keith Vaz! Now there's impartiality for you!
Who is speaking up for Western, Christian civilisation?
Where's the bloody Conservative Party?

Good subject...
When, particularly having relocated to the UKOT of St Helena in 2006 following the promise made to the Island in the House of Commons on 14th March 2005, only to see the planned Economic Development Project (an airport after decades of waiting) put on "pause" despite this having been proven to be economically in both parties interests.
In his New Year message Gordon Brown kept banging on about the "British people" but at times it feels that the Government forgets that we too are those very "British people" to whom it refers.
That said, when a move is made in the House of Commons to have the "pause" lifted, where are the Tories...?
EDM 175 - Airport for the Island of St Helena:
Conservative Party - 17
DUP - 1
Independent - 3
Labour Party - 25
Liberal Democrats - 14
Plaid Cymru - 1
SNP - 2
I too am losing faith in the Party I have supported my whole life.
Following a kind response from Adam's Office it looks like I spoke too soon (sorry!), as I was of course missing the very valid point that the Party response to this particular EDM needs to be measured against number of seats:
Labour Party - 7.1% response
Conservative Party - 8.8% response
It is also worth noting that Shadow Ministers (which similarly take up a greater percentage proportion of Tory seats) have certain restrictions applied on the signing of EDM's.
I therefore (shamefully) stand corrected and endeavour to apply a good measure of "Right Thinking" before spouting off again...
Faith restored with thanks!
