UKIP deputy leader calls for end of NHS

Pride's Purge

(not satire – it’s the UKIP!)

There are a lot of people intending to vote UKIP at the local and European elections this month.

I wonder how many of them are aware that UKIP are openly calling for the end of the NHS?

Here is a letter from Paul Nuttall the deputy leader of UKIP – posted on his own website –  saying the NHS is so costly and inefficient that its very existence should be called into question:

UKIP NHS

.

UKIP are not a maverick, anti-establishment, libertarian party. They are a bunch of right-wing, authoritarian Thatcherites – led by a public school educated ex-banker – who don’t like foreigners or homosexuals much.

And they’d sell-off the NHS quicker than the present government given half a chance.

Outrage after supermarkets admit meat on sale was alive before being killed

Pride's Purge

(satire?)

DAILY MAIL EXCLUSIVE!

Leading retailers have sparked outrage from consumers after they admitted meat was being sold in supermarkets which originated from living animals.

A huge debate was sparked recently when it emerged that 185 Subway outlets in the UK and Ireland had decided to sell meat from animals which had actually been alive before they were killed without informing their customers.

Several restaurant chains, including KFC, Domino’s Pizza, Nando’s and Pizza Express also sell meat which was alive – including chicken which they admitted had originated from the bodies of live chickens – in some or all of their stores.

And in a shocking revelation, the Daily Mail can reveal that approximately 100 per cent of New Zealand lamb in supermarkets comes from baby sheep which had been killed in abattoirs in New Zealand.

Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Waitrose and Marks & Spencer also have been forced to admit that tinned tuna on sale in their…

The Cycle of Motherhood | Dorinda Duclos – Night Owl Poetry

A baby cries in the night

A hand gently touches her

A mother’s soothing voice

Comforting, wiping away the tears

A child cries in the night

A mother’s soothing voice

Quieting the nightmare

Comforting, chasing away the fears

A woman cries in the night

Her mother’s soothing voice

Calming and reassuring

Comforting, holding her near

A baby cries in the night

A mother’s soothing voice

A grandmother’s loving touch

As the cycle begins again

Pardon her Now Gov. C – Pussy Riot Pays Jail Visit To OWS Protestor Convicted Of Assaulting NYPD Officer : Gothamist

Members of Russian protest group/band Pussy Riot offered their support to Cecily McMillan, the protester who was convicted this week of a felony assault on an NYPD officer during the Occupy Wall Street protests in 2012. McMillan now faces up to seven years in prison, and the Pussy Riot members visited her at Rikers Island as a sign of solidarity.

McMillan was convicted by a panel of jurors who agreed the 25-year-old graduate student intentionally assaulted Officer Grantley Bovell during a scuffle in Zucotti Park in March 2012, despite McMillan’s claim that she was reacting to an assault on the part of the officer. Pussy Riot members Maria Alyokhina and Nadezhda Tolokonnikova say that imprisoning McMillan is a mistake. “Society must organize to save Cecily because she’s really a hero,” Alyokhina told the Times. “She is very similar to us. We also did time and went to prison for our beliefs. We see a lot of parallels.”

Alyokhina and Tolokonnikova, who served prison time in Russia for their protest efforts, say they spoke with McMillan about her social revolutionary efforts. “She told us about the revolution maybe 20 times,” Alyokhina said. “It’s really very important to her.” Tolokonnikova’s husband Peter Verzilov also visited McMillan, and said she seemed to be staying positive. “She might be the happiest prisoner I’ve seen,” he told Mashable.
