If you’re on a motorway, you need to be extra vigilant. People are managing to drive the wrong way along them at an increasing rate.
A result of the relentless dumbing down in the education system by The Blob? People just not able to understand road signs; even if they managed to pass the driving test somehow?

Take extra care!are
Not too Amber
Despite all the warnings about huge snow drifts and power cuts everywhere, we ended up with maybe two inches of snow and liquid water in puddles.
Slush on pavements, full of footprints from people and dogs, the roads wet but navigable, and no need to panic.
Also lack of culture
We have an Education Secretary who doesn’t get that shoving VAT on private school fees will overload the public sector. She also thinks that the middle classes are in favour of it.
Worse, one of her gaggle of advisors is a professor who thinks that schools shouldn’t focus on academic achievement, they should act as parking places for the kids until they’re old enough to go on the dole.
Victim culture strikes again
An actor (one I’ve never heard of) was content to file being called ‘spud’ at Cambridge as ‘affectionate’. Now, he goes for ‘casual racialist’. It has obviously never occurred to him that it’s ‘just locationist’ if he’s Irish.
Maybe ‘chip’ would be more apt now if he’s carrying one on both shoulders.

Lost Loot
Why is Council Tax zooming up this year? So that local councils can shove huge amounts of our money into the Local Government Pension Scam; over 50% of receipts in some cases, including bankrupt Labour councils like Birmingham.
Are we well served by this? Joke. Productivity is going down and down relentlessly in the public sector thanks to the shirk @ home culture. And with a Labour government, it can only get worse.
Even fewer points scored
The FBI in New Orleans have had to admit that the bloke who drove a pick-up truck into a crowd on New Year’s Day was acting along and their tale of looking for a gang was just more garbage.
Even worse, they are unable to link that murderous attack to the explosion of an electric Tesla Cybertruck outside the Trump International hotel in Law Vegas. Maybe everything isn’t as connected as some people would wish.
It’s an explanation
If you’re on an airliner and the Russians shoot missiles at it, you’re suffering merely ‘external interference’.
Worth repeating
That’s the observation that if the Friends of the Earth are on the side of the lunatic Just Stoppers, then the poor old Earth don’t need no enemies!

Not sold on this, either
Former somebody Angela Ripoff does a smart meter advert with a cartoon Albert Einstein? What a descent from dignity.
How desperate can you get for some cash?
No points scored
The FBI made a real bog of the New Orleans terror attack, rushing an agent to follow the statement by the police chief with an assurance that a bloke driving into a crowd and killing 10 people wasn’t terrorism. Only to have to come back and admit, actually, it was, after they found an ISIS flag in the truck. And now they’re looking for a whole gang of terrorists they knew nothing about. Eggon Mush big time!
Not exactly a selling point
Am I impressed by dry cell batteries containing ‘up to’ 10% recycled steel? Not even a little bit as I have been told that each recycling operation reduces the carbon content in the steel alloy and creates an inferior product.
Thus the advertising has a negative effect on me. If they need to virtue-flag like that, the product is probably crap and I would buy something else.
Something to keep an eye on
I see the diversifiers are hoping to end the monoculture in the curriculum for schools. Translation: pollute things like history, which are about the achievements of people born here who grew up in our culture with token outsiders to make it more ‘diverse’.
Which suggests that we need to be vigilant about our historical records to make sure that the diversifiers are not allowed to erase anything that they find inconvenient and that their prejudices can be expose if we ever move in to more enlightened times.

Pur-lease!
The mug doing the BBC lunchtime news yesterday was asking what people’s feelings were about the vehicular terrorist attack in New Orleans.
Wot a bloody idiot! “How do you feel?” The ultimate idiot question.
By the way
In the film Johnny Mnemonic (1995), I noticed that they could get the date of the action, twenty oh six, right. The two thousand rot clearly set in at a later date. Probably as part of the useless New Labour agenda.
That’s the same New Labour which tried to tell us that the 21st century started on January 1st 2000 rather than a year later, and blew a billion quid on the Millennium Dome fiasco.
Americans are weird!
Especially the Latinos in the T.J. Hooker episode last night if they think they need a gadget to make the front end of their car bounce up and down like a demented yo-yo.
Fashion rots the brain. True.
On the nail’s head
Our wonderful prime monster has been diagnosed with a severe case of jet-lack.
That’s why he keeps flying all round the world at our expense.
It’s truly amazing what you can get away with when you’re a politician who’s not accountable to anyone.

What he got the K for
London’s disgraced mayor is stopping farmers from putting tax protest adverts on Tube trains by claiming that Transport for London’s rules don’t allow politically controversial stuff. Which is just another Labour lie as there has been lots of it in the past.
End of term report
Smarmer & Co. have maintained the Labour tradition of scoring nul points for honesty, integrity and competence.
Just Daft
The FBI claiming someone driving a pick-up truck past barriers and into a crowd in New Orleans with the intention of killing as many of them as possible wasn’t terrorism is just stupid.
Especially if the guy had body armour and guns to shoot at the cops with. What other reason could the perp have had but to cause alarm and terror? He might not have belonged to Al Kaida or Hamas but he’s clearly out of the same box.
A spot of truth for a change
Ignore all the bullshit from Labour and its apologists about Labour’s plan to stop illegal immigrants not working. There never was a plan.
Not when Smarmer’s Army took over in July, and not now because it’s just another of the issues which Beer has booted into the long grass rather than address.
