It would appear that Facebook doesn’t like me posting about corrupt Politicians as I stated in my Post yesterday.
Here’s another one they blocked. I wonder why?

Could be it’s a few sweary words.

A public service broadcast from TFE.
The death knell of AGW will be sounded if this article gets out into the open. Forget about fast neutrinos found at CERN. This is much greater discovery.
'Forget AGW: what’s Al Gore got to say about wind-turbine-sourced free roton emissions? Notice all the tornadoes this past summer? Direct correlation. Yet government roton-emission standards are tied up in committee hearings.
From Wikipedia:
. . . the science remains sketchy, occupying the no-man’s-land between Newtonian physics and quantum mechanics. In basic terms, a free roton is a quantum –a packet—of angular momentum, released from any unshielded rotating mass (a barber pole; a merry-go-round). Nearby ungrounded objects can absorb these until a tipping point –the Spinner Threshold*—is crossed. Free rotons are mostly absorbed by the circumambient air, resulting in wind vortices of varying size. Effects on exposed human subjects were first observed in Holland (for obvious reasons) and can range from dizziness to “augering”.
*Named for James Spinner 1881-1919, who made the first measurements of free rotons. It is believed that Spinner himself succumbed to a fatal dosage (>100 whirlies) while conducting experiments with a ceiling fan, causing him to auger through the floor of his home in Devonshire. His body was never recovered.
Hey, if Al Gore's allowed to make stuff up, then so am I.'
A nice little presentation below which puts the whole “CO2 is killing the planet” in perspective.
It’s the money, you see.
I was just looking through my blog stats and wondered what this referring link was about.

Now yes, my posts do appear on my Facebook page. But I object to being classed as Malware. I am demeaned. I would prefer to be classed as a virulent virus attacking the political system.
Am I being subjected to censorship?

I just wonder if this Blog has surfaced on the politically correct radar. If so, it’s game on.
Scottish publicans reveal fears for trade.
One in five publicans has considered quitting the business, according to a new report.
The research, commissioned by brewers Molson Coors, found that in rural areas a higher proportion - a third - had thought of selling up or closing down in the last six months.
More than half of those questioned see the prospects for the industry as poor over the next five years.
Researchers say there has already been a steep decline in the business.
Could it be because of the smoking ban?
And the Scottish Licensed Trade Association said the law change had resulted in the closure of hundreds of pubs and the loss of thousands of jobs.
Its chief executive, Paul Waterson, said the predicted upturn in new customers attracted by smoke-free pubs had "simply not materialised".
He conceded other factors - such as the economic downturn and low supermarket prices for alcohol - would have been a factor in the 800 Scottish pub closures.
But he added: "The starting point for all of this is around the time of the smoking ban."
He said the fifth anniversary should be the time for a rethink of the ban and called for the legislation to be changed to allow some pubs to have smoking rooms, to encourage customers back.
And their answer to it all.
Minimum price
Many publicans gave evidence to the report's compilers that they had concerns for the industry as a whole, yet they were more likely to be positive about their own prospects, with 56% saw their own business prospects as being good over the next five years.
The SNP government plans to introduce a minimum price for drink in a bid to tackle the problems associated with alcohol abuse in Scotland.
Today's research revealed that consumers and publicans were split on the likely effect of the plans. When it came to consumers, 42% felt it would be negative step, while 39% said its introduction would have a positive impact.
Fifty-seven percent of licensees believe it would have a beneficial impact on Scotland, but would do little to help their business. They stand to benefit from cheap drink in shops being pushed up in price.
That’ll work. Not.
What’s to stop a major supermarket chain setting up multiple booze stores just South of the Scottish border. (If someone wants to lend me a couple of million………..). As far as I know there are no border controls between Jockland and England yet. Really not thought out at all.
I shall now have a large whisky on the strength of the fact that the Tartan Brigade have voted in the wrong crowd.
Well I would hope so, if Huhne and his green sycophants can be kept at bay.
Cuadrilla Resources believes there are 200 trillion cubic feet of "shale" gas in the Bowland basin, which could result in a Lancashire gas boom creating 5,600 jobs at peak production.
Shale is a type of onshore gas common in the US, which is extracted by blasting apart rock in a process called fracking.
More testing is needed, but the estimates suggest Britain could have more shale gas than Poland, which has been considered Europe's biggest holder of probable reserves.
Others have calculated that this could make us gas sufficient for the next 30 years.
A bit of an explanation can be found Here on what it is.
Unconventional gas is the collective term used to describe tight gas, shale gas and/or coal bed methane (CBM). While conventional gas resources can be developed and produced without any special well completions, most unconventional gas production requires the rock to be fractured (“fracked”) or stimulated to allow gas to escape from the tight rock and flow through the wellbore to the surface. These special well completions made drilling for unconventional gas uneconomical for many years.
Toward the end of the 20th century, the combination of two existing technologies – horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing – shifted unconventional gas production into the main stream. Learn more about how unconventional gas is extracted with our interactive animation.
The potential of shale gas, tight gas and CBM has been known for centuries, with the first shale gas wells drilled in the 1820s. However, it is only with recent technological improvements that extracting the resources has become an economically viable option.
Currently, natural gas has approximately 60 years of proven reserves at current demand levels, but according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), this rises to more than 250 years if the unconventional gas potential is added. Clearly, unconventional gas may play a large part in ensuring the security of global energy supply for years to come.
If only we could make our Politicians see sense. I’m all for conservation, but how do we do that if we bankrupt ourselves on the Altar of green crap?

I see to my horror that some person or persons nominated this blog for a Total Politics blog award.
This Blog has a ranking in the top 100 Non-aligned Blog Category. Alright It’s only 89th (Note to self: Must do better)
Still this Humble Blogger (Now I’m really spouting bullshit) wouldn’t have received this reward without someone nominating me.
So Thank you one and all. *Bows*
On a beautiful summer's day, two English tourists were driving through Wales .....
At the town of :
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyllllantysiliogogoch
They stopped for lunch, and one of the tourists asked the very blonde Welsh waitress, "Before we order, I wonder if you could settle an argument for us.
Can you pronounce where we are, very, very, very slowly?"
The girl leaned over and said,"Burrr.... Gerrr.... King."
MPs have called for a drastic reform of the pub industry to stop locals closing at an "alarming" rate.
In a strongly-worded report, the Business Select Committee criticised the large pub companies which run most of the country's pubs, so-called pubcos, saying self-regulation had failed.
The committee said that after being given a number of chances to change the way it runs the business, pubcos should now be subjected to statutory regulation.
That statutory regulation you want to bring in? Look at the last one you brought in. The smoking ban. Have you not thought that, that in itself, has done the most damage to the hospitality industry?
Maybe you haven’t read this you muppets.
Almost three years after the introduction of smoking bans in the three countries, Scotland had
lost 7.1% of its pub estate (467 pubs), Wales 7.3% (274), and England 7.6% (4,148). Scotland,
which introduced a smoking ban a year earlier lost a further 4% of its pub estate in the fourth
year after the ban, mirroring a similar decline in Ireland (11%) which banned smoking in pubs in
2004.
Total pub losses in England, Scotland and Wales since the introduction of smoking bans in all
three countries are in excess of 5,500.
According to CR Consulting’s report, which was commissioned by the Save Our Pubs & Clubs
campaign, “While there is significant variation in the trajectories of pub closures before the ban,
there is an almost total correlation between the three countries after the ban.
“This indicates that they are affected by a strong common factor ‐ the smoking ban. The
correlation is in fact so close that the trend line for the three countries is identical.”
I would suggest that you MPs and your so called select committees butt out and do what you do best. The only problem is the only thing I think you have any expertise in, is fiddling your expenses and being professional liars.
I used to go to a local pub every Sunday before the smoking ban and had to fight my way to the bar. Now I rarely go once every three months. last Sunday I went. There were only five others in the pub, one of which was the barman. The other three were with me.
Just get out into the real world outside the Westminster bubble and speak to real people. Get away from your sycophants, and your lackeys in the MSM (a certain Nick Robinson from the BBC springs to mind) if you want to find out why pubs and clubs are closing at an alarming rate.
God give me strength. I truly hate the cunts. My MP hasn’t the decency to even acknowledge my correspondence. Yes you, John Stanley, you waste of space.
Guy Fawkes had the right idea. Roll on November the fifth. (or should that be filth)
