Labour in crisis after key workers in essential services threaten to quit country

This particular revelation should come with ten-foot pole to fend off fans of “stars” mentioned.

Pride's Purge

(satire?)

The leadership of the Labour Party were in crisis talks today after it was revealed that Britain could face severe shortages of tired old TV presenters, has-been pop singers and shite stage magicians if a victorious Labour government introduces its policy of taxing mansions worth more than £2 million after the next election.

The warnings come after key workers in essential public services such as worn-out light entertainment, middle-of-the-road pop music and outdated hackneyed old comedy acts threatened to quit the country should Ed Miliband become the next Prime Minister.

In unrelated news, a new opinion poll indicates Labour could attract as many as 89% of the votes at the next election if it announced policies that would make Gary Barlow leave the country as well as Griff Rhys Jones, Phil Collins and Paul Daniels.

Not Satire – they’d really like to lock up a 6-year old for emulating David and throwing a rock at the Israeli Goliath? Netanyahu’s cabinet backs bill to jail stone-throwers for up to 20 years

th_alarmed_face Netanyahu told ministers at the start of the weekly cabinet meeting in Jerusalem that Israel would crack down on terrorists of every means: “Israel is operating aggressively against terrorists, against stone throwers, against hurlers of firebombs and firecrackers,” Netanyahu said. “We will legislate more aggressive legislation to this regard, in order to return quiet and security to every part of Jerusalem.”

The amendment is based on the recommendations of a committee headed by Cabinet Secretary Avichai Mandelblit, which examined how to deal with the security situation in East Jerusalem.

The committee found during its deliberations that under the current law, police and courts are limited in their abilities to punish stone-throwing offenders; Under existing law, the state must prove intent to cause harm, or base its case on other laws in order to convict rock throwers.

The amendment will make it possible to convict and punish the violators even if the state cannot prove they intended to damage cars or injure passengers. In addition, the proposed law would for the first time allow the conviction of those who throw rocks at police cars.

The draft law states that the crime of throwing rocks at cars will be divided into two categories of offenses: The basic degree, for which the punishment is 10 years in prison, will outlaw throwing rocks or other objects at vehicles in motion in a way that could endanger the safety of a person in the vehicle or someone nearby. The more serious offense, for which the punishment will be up to 20 years in prison, would be for those who are convicted of also intending to cause a person serious bodily harm, by throwing rocks or other objects at vehicles.

The proposed law would also introduce a new offense: Throwing a rock or other object at a police vehicle or a police officer with the intention of interfering in the carrying out of his duty. The punishment in such cases would be 5 years in prison.

Defending Slackness At All Costs

Preaching truth where it needs preaching. Plan to protect against chik-V? Do nothing and hope no one notices you did nothing! Was in good company with non-leaders all around your lake.

Prime Minister and Minister of Health at press conference on public health crisis Prime Minister and Minister of Health at press conference on public health crisis

So the prime minister, who is also the minister of defence, is perfectly satisfied with the performance of her minister of health. She has every confidence in Dr. Fenton Ferguson. It doesn’t seem to matter that the nation is in a perilous state: pop down, mash up, largely due to the incompetence of the minister of health and his technocrats in handling the chik-V crisis.

Yes, I know; this is my fourth column on the virus. And if you substitute chik-V for Ebola, you can also count last week’s column: why there’s no vaccine for chik-V. It’s the same story. Victims of chik-V are poor people in Asia, Africa and now Latin America and the Caribbean. They can’t guarantee huge profits for pharmaceutical companies.

The current estimate is that it takes 10 years and 1 billion dollars…
