Stephen Kinnock - Hereditary Socialists, Exclusion And Self Flagelation

Children who partake in destructive behavior toward themselves or others are usually diagnosed as having some disorder or other that requires medication to keep its symptoms under control. When whole communities numbering in the tens of thousands engage in similar destructive behavior there doesn't appear to be any pharmaceutical product on the market that could effect such a cure for so many.

Looking at the imposition of Stephen Kinnock as the next Member of Parliament for the people of Aberavon, one has to wonder what it will take for the people to alter their self harming behavior, even when some relatively minor alterations would have beneficial effects on their own and their children's future.

The circumstances surrounding the appointment of Stephen Kinnock, and the stench of political patronage it has left in its wake, deserves closer examination, as does the patronising attitude of the Labour party's political establishment toward the people of this constituency.

The people of Aberavon are obviously unaware of the destructive nature of their tribal voting habits and also the fact that by turning their constituency into a single party state they are effectively disenfranchising themselves.

The people need to understand that today's politicians are unscrupulous, unprincipled placemen who are trained in the black arts of media manipulation, spinning and lying. They have no interest in democracy or representing the people, their only interest is in their own agenda or that of the vested interest they represent.

Stephen Kinnock is a wealthy career bureaucrat who has achieved little in life using his own personal skills or resources. It would appear that he has trailed along on his parents coat tails benefiting from the power and influence they accumulated while in public office.

He may have been born in Wales but he was brought up in London, went to University in Cambridge then spent his formative years breathing the rarefied air of Brussels. He has had very little to do with Great Britain or its people and absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with Wales, Aberavon or the working class.

The people of Aberavon are being intellectually lazy by not educating themselves on the motives of the modern day Labour party, nor are they scrutinizing the man who is being dumped on them by an exclusive London based elite of millionaire socialists who have seized control of the Labour movement.

They are incorrectly assuming that this is the same Labour movement that was formed during the industrial revolution. This movement was created by working people with a view to improving the condition of the masses and it was based on the Christian principle of the brotherhood of man.

Today, only four percent of Labour MP's come from the working class with the rest hailing from a wealthy metropolitan elite who have replaced the Christian roots of the party and its mission with a trendy, international 'progressive' agenda.

The powerful inner circle of the working class movement is closed to outsiders, especially working class people, who are deliberately excluded. Any lingering members of the working class in Parliament are powerless curiosities who will be replaced at the next election with elitists such as Stephen Kinnock.

The determination of the current leadership to keep control of the movement in perpetuity can be illustrated by the dynastic attitude to 'safe' seats. The socialist distaste for the hereditary principle is conveniently sidelined as the ruling elite parachute family members into constituencies populated by undiscerning tribal voters.

Apart from the London centric Kinnock, the born and bred Londoner, Hillary Benn, is the fourth generation of the Benn family to become an MP when he was dumped on the undiscerning people of Leeds.

Born and bred Londoner, Jack Dromey, was dumped on the people of Birmingham despite the constituency having an all woman shortlist. Dromey is the husband of senior Labour party stalwart, Harriet Harman. Apparently, their son Harry is on the look out for some dumb voters to represent.

Essex born Jack Straw was dumped in Blackburn and now is son William is being lined up with a 'safe' seat Lancashire.

Welsh Born John Prescott's son David is on the list, as is Tony Blair's son Euan who, despite being born and bred in London, has decided he would like to represent the people of Coventry.

All these prospective candidates have several things in common:

They are all from a wealthy elite.

None of them has ever had a proper job that normal people would consider as work.

None of them know the first thing about the working class, their hopes or their aspirations.

None of them can identify with working class people.

None of them will know anything about the constituency they will be representing nor will they care.

As they pursue their personal agenda, they will maintain the status quo in the constituency. If it is a poor constituency, it will remain poor.

After the last disastrous Labour government left the country bankrupt and transformed beyond recognition, it's a mystery why electors would self flagellate and vote for more of the same.

The people of Aberavon should learn from other tribal voting areas that their loyalty (some have described it as bovine stupidity) will be abused and their interests will not be a priority for Kinnock. They only need to look at the behavior of his parents and the way they treated the people they were supposed to be representing.

The Kinnock family are notorious in British politics for being the first family of troughing - for the uninitiated that means they have a penchant for lining their pockets with tax payers money - and also for being two of the biggest practitioners of socialist hypocrisy on the planet.

The mother of the clan is Baroness Kinnock of Holyhead, formally known as Glenys Kinnock. In complete contradiction to the spin doctors image of a dutiful wife, mother, school teacher and tireless advocate for the poor, she is a ruthless socialist dedicated to spreading her ideology across the planet.

The truth about Glenys Kinnock here.

The patriarch of the clan is Lord Kinnock of Bedwellty, formally know as Neil Kinnock. He is a serial loser who has no qualifications or accomplishments, but through patronage and corruption he made it to the top of the European Union bureaucracy making himself a multi million pound fortune in the process.

It is worth noting that Neil Kinnock was a career socialist politician who never won a general election as leader of the Labour party, he has never held a position in government nor has he any accomplishments or experience in the wealth creating sector. His fortune is made up mostly of taxpayers money he accumulated from lucrative appointments in the EU, his appointment to the House of Lords and sinecures from other contacts he made while in public office.

The truth about Neil Kinnock here.

There must be something in the water in that neck of the woods that separates people from their common sense. In the neighbouring constituency of Neath and Port Talbot, they embarrassed the whole of Wales by electing and re-electing the biggest political charlatan of them all.

The South African coward Peter Hain ran away from his native land, abandoning his comrades to their fate and he now has the temerity to associate himself with the fall of apartheid.

The truth about tribal voting and Peter Hain here and here.

Another tribal voting post here.

The people of Aberavon and other tribal voting areas should do themselves and their country a favour, wake up, learn to think for yourselves and ignore the Labour party elite.

Choose your own candidate from among yourselves, surely there is someone from within your own community that can represent the interests of the people better than a remote elitist who knows nothing about Aberavon or its people and who's only interest is the agenda of the international elite and their vested interests.   

Unelected EU Baroness Preaches Democracy In Egypt But Punishes Democratic Israel

No thinking person will be surprised by double standards and hypocrisy when it comes to the European Union. This whole institution was built on the basis of 'government in the post democratic age' using the Soviet Union model as a template.

It is stuffed to the rafters with a mix of professional career politicians, failed legislators, unqualified cronies, hangers on and communist apparatchiks left over from the former East European dictatorships.

This whole place is run by back scratching, patronage and back room stitch ups, which allows failed politicians from the member states to take lucrative non jobs for long enough to fill their pockets with taxpayers money and qualify for a gold plated pension for life.

The latest episode of gross hypocrisy is the visit of the grandly titled High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security, the Baroness Ashton, to the Middle East to put Egypt firmly 'on a path to democracy'. She met with the various Egyptian political parties including the Muslim Brotherhood who are advocates of totalitarian Sharia law.

One would have thought that the European Union is the last institution that should be preaching democracy but using Baroness Ashton as its leading preacher is beyond parody.

A brief look at Ashton's Curriculum Vitae reveals that she doesn't have a democratic bone in her body. My generation remember Ashton as one of leaders of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament (CND), a group led by a gaggle of naive professional left wing agitators and clerics who advocated unilateral nuclear disarmament during the cold war period of Soviet aggression.

It is certain that the CND had been infiltrated by the Soviets and Ashton refuses to acknowledge Soviet financing of her organization to this day. Her political career started in earnest when she was appointed to the upper chamber of the British legislature, the House of Lords, by Tony Blair. Although totally unqualified, her rise through the ranks took off like a rocket when she was:

Appointed Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Department of Education and Skills.

Appointed Minister for Sure Start

Appointed Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Constitutional Affairs (in preparation for pushing the EU constitution through Parliament without a referendum)

Appointed Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Ministry of Justice ( see above)

Appointed Leader of the House of Lords and Lord President of the Council.

Appointed Great Britain's Commissioner to the European Union.

One doesn't have to be a student of politics to note that Ashton acquired vast amounts of political and legislative power over the British people without a single vote being cast. She has never offered herself for election over her entire career and what makes this situation even more undemocratic is the fact that she is appointed for life therefore she cannot be removed by the British people regardless of her performance.

This is the person chosen by the Leaders of the European Union to preach democracy to the various blood soaked dictators of Egypt and the Middle East. These EU leaders don't stand up to scrutiny either considering the amount of power they wield over the peoples of Europe.

President of the European Council, which is accepted to be the Executive branch of the EU, is sinister Belgian totalitarian Herman von Rumpuy who was appointed without consultation with the people or Parliament.

President of the EU Commission, which is accepted to be the legislative branch, is Portuguese Maoist Jose Manuel Barrosso who, like von Rumpuy, was appointed without consultation. The Vice President of the Commission just happens to be the Baroness Ashton.

President of the European Parliament is the German socialist thug Martin Shultz. This appalling man, who can barely disguise his hatred of Great Britain, was appointed after a closed door stitch up between cronies and hangers on.

Any sane person is bound to question how an organization like this, stuffed with people like the anti-democracy Baroness Ashton, can be taken seriously when they start preaching democracy abroad.

Hatred of Israel is mandatory for a hard left 'progressive' zealot like Baroness Ashton and she demonstrates this, together with her hypocrisy, by declaring a cultural war against the only multi-party democracy in the Middle East, Israel.

While she is indulging the Muslim Brotherhood's deposed dictator Mohamed Morsi, who describes Jews as the 'decendents of apes and pigs', she is applying sanctions on Israeli academics and businesses alike.  These sanctions are likely to hurt Arabs as well as the Israelis that she hates so much.

This fact won't bother Ashton as demonstrating her anti-Israel credentials is more important than hurting the very Arabs she is supposed to be helping.

This double standard is nothing new for the long suffering people of Europe. Prior to Baroness Ashton they had to suffer the hopelessly under qualified, multi-millionaire socialist, the Baroness Kinnock. This venal pseudo intellectual has made a multi million pound fortune despite never having had a real job outside of politics. The taxpayers pockets are deep and always open for the politicians to plunder.

Another hard left 'progressive' in the Ashton mould, Glennys Kinnock demonstrated her idiocy by lecturing President Obama on how his government's subsidies to cotton farmers was making it difficult for their counterparts in the developing world to compete; all the while she was the Commissioner of an organization that provides the biggest subsidies to farmers in the history of agriculture, including its own cotton farmers! The EU's Common Agricultural Policy has ruined the entire agricultural sectors of developing countries since its inception decades ago.

The world will wait with baited breath to see if the efforts of the appointed, undemocratic Baroness Ashton will succeed in teaching Middle Eastern tyrants the virtues of democracy but maybe she should listen to her own lectures and democratize herself and the organization she represents first.

Our Glorious Dead - Military Heroes Betrayed By Political Cowards

During a search for some of my ancestors, I came upon a military headstone which happened to be the final resting place of not one hero but two, a father and his son.

Whenever I come across one of these headstones I stop to pay my respects and give thanks for their sacrifice on my own, and the country's behalf.

As of late I have started to photograph some of these military graves for my archives. I believe that its only a matter of time before these headstones are removed from civilian cemeteries for causing offence to some politically correct clowns in pursuit of their 'progressive' agenda.

The headstone reads:                                  28443 Driver
                                                                    W.WHELAN
                                                          ROYAL FIELD ARTILLERY
                                                             10TH NOVEMBER 1917

                                                               10729742 GUNNER
                                                                     J.WHELAN
                                                               ROYAL ARTILLERY
                                                        21ST DECEMBER 1940 AGE 26
                                                                     IN MEMORY
                                                     OF A DEVOTED HUSBAND AND SON
                                                  FOR EVER ENSHRINED IN OUR HEARTS

Anyone other than an emotional hard case could fail to be moved by the sacrifice made, not only by these brave men but by the wife and mother who lost both her loved ones in the service of their country.

Later that day I witnessed the debilitating spectacle of the British Prime Minister, David Cameron, declaring his absolute dedication to the cause of Great Britain giving up its sovereignty and joining the 'ever closer union' to a German dominated United States of Europe.

Further more, and to rub salt into the country's wounds, he did this sharing a platform with two of the most fanatical of the Euro Federalists. These two creatures make no secret of their determination to bring an end to the independent nation states of Europe, including Great Britain, and subjugate them all into a post democratic political aberration that is plunging the peoples of Europe into abject poverty and misery.

Cameron looked at ease and comfortable selling his nation out flanked by the EU's unelected leaders Portuguese Maoist, Jose Manuel Barroso, and the sinister Belgian totalitarian, Herman von Rumpuy.

Also on the platform was the 'Progressive in Chief' from over the water. The misnamed leader of the free world endorses the subjugation of the British people into this anti-democratic institution. If the United States of Europe is such a great institution for the British people then there is no reason why America shouldn't join also. A name change to the United Transatlantic Union, a surrender of sovereignty then the transfer of $100 million per day and its a done deal.

The leaders and senior members of the three legacy political parties, David Cameron, Nick Clegg and Ed Miliband et al, are all committed to selling out the Great Britain that W and J.Whelan died for. These traitorous political weasels and their collaborators are trampling over their grave and dishonouring these hero's to whom they owe everything.

It should be obvious by now that the European Union is a disaster for the people of Europe but a gold mine for the politicians and their attendant bureaucrats. Fortunes have been made by washed up political has beens, like Neil and Glenys Kinnock, who treated the European taxpayer as a cash cow and a means of filling their bank accounts before settling down to a comfortable retirement in that den of thieves known as the House of Lords.

Despite all the evidence to the contrary, these Quislings have always been spinning that Great Britain's interests lie inside the EU and the Single Market. Throughout history treaties and trade deals have been entered into without surrendering sovereignty and there is no reason to surrender it now. Countries from around the world are signing trade deals with the EU without surrendering their sovereignty. The latest $75 billion deal with the United States requires no loss of sovereignty on the part of the American people.

Contrary to what the political class is spinning, the European project is nothing other than nation building, using the failed Soviet Union model as a template. There is no difference between the two.

Since that day at the cemetery I have rethought my attitude to the European Union, including the issue of a referendum.

Great Britain was an independent and sovereign nation at the start of World War l.  W. Whelan went to war and sacrificed his life to protect that sovereignty from the Kaiser's dream of a German dominated Europe. Great Britain was still independent and sovereign at the start of World War II when J.Whelan made the same sacrifice, to protect that same sovereignty but this time from Hitler's dream of a German dominated Europe.

British sovereignty was bought with the lives of these two men and a million others, therefore it cannot be surrendered without their consent. As they are all dead it means that British sovereignty can never be surrendered, not ever.

Neither the traitorous political class nor the people have the authority to surrender British sovereignty and there is no requirement for any referendums.

No referendums were held for the handing over of sovereignty starting with the Merger Treaty and continued with the Single European Act. Referendums were also not held when sovereignty was surrendered by the Maastricht, Amsterdam, Nice and Lisbon treaties. By the same account, no referendums should be necessary to repeal these treaties in order to take that sovereignty back.

The sacrifice of W and J. Whelan guarantees British sovereignty for all future generations and no single generation has the authority to surrender it, it is not theirs to give away.

Sovereignty is held in trust by one generation and must be handed on intact to the next, that's what W and J. Whelan sacrificed their lives for and that sacrifice must be respected.

Despite their continuous whinging and whining, the political parasites of today have sacrificed nothing and have no stature whatsoever when compared with W and J. Whelan; they owe everything to the sacrifice of others.

They should show some respect and honour the memory of our Glorious Dead by protecting the sovereignty that they died for and end the sellout of their country to the totalitarians of Europe.

Neil Kinnock - Money Money Money! It's A Rich Mans World

I'll start with an anecdote. I was sent to Kenya for a couple of months to cover for a colleague back in 1993. The corruptocrat in charge at the time was an odious creep named Daniel arap Moi.

Hailing from a minority tribe, Moi started life as a school teacher, he then became an MP for a Rift Valley constituency who worked his way up to be party leader and eventually becoming President of Kenya.

I returned to Kenya in 2000 to replace my colleague by which time Daniel arap Moi was worth $1.5 billion, his daughter June was employed in his office with a non job and with daddy's help his son Gideon became a businessman who was worth a reputed $550 million in 2011.

In the meantime his constituents in the Rift Valley remained dirt poor.

There were plenty of parallels between Moi and Neil Kinnock but unlike Moi, the latter didn't make it to the top job.

A look at Neil Kinnock's biographies reveal, as is usual with Labour Party hypocrites, he benefited from a grammar school education. This was the vehicle that provided social mobility for working class children which was subsequently denied to future generations by his Labour Party.

The replacement Comprehensive system locked children into a dumbed down shambles which still masquerades as schooling today.

Neil Kinnock went on to become "the first person in his family for a thousand generations to go to University" where he graduated in Industrial Relations and History, a qualification which is of little use for a career in the wealth and job creating sector.

Neil Kinnock is also the first person in his family in a thousand generations to accumulate a fortune without ever having done a proper job in the real world outside of the incestuous world of politics.

Neil Kinnock spent 4 years as a tutor for the Workers Education Association, a taxpayer supported charity which laughably includes equality and opportunity as one of its values. (Comrade Neil must have turned a blind eye to that one).

After an exhaustive investigation, that would appear to be it, the sum total of Neil Kinnock's experience outside of party politics comprises of being a student and a tutor in a taxpayer funded charity.

There is no record of any business or wealth creating experience prior to his entering Parliament as the MP for Bedwellty.  This was, and still is, a typical poor tribal voting South Wales coal mining community which would return a donkey to Parliament if it sported a red Labour Party rosette.

Neil Kinnock's political career is well documented elsewhere but briefly:

Neil Kinnock worked his up to the giddy heights of Labour Party leader, a tenure which was characterised in the early days with a sham fight with hard left.

Although he was a member of the hard left himself he realised that their loony policies and poor public image was hurting their chances of electoral success.

The battles with Militant Tendency made great headlines which the Labour Party image makers of the day, led by that calculating manipulator and ex communist Peter Mandelson, milked for all it was worth.

With the expulsion of Militant Tendency and a change of logo to a pink rose, the Party was apparently re-branded and now electable.

In reality nothing had changed. The loony left went underground, they put on suits and ties then carried on as usual. They are still in the Labour Party to this day in the shape of Jeremy Corbyn, Dennis Skinner, Diane Abbot, Michael Meacher, Ken Livingstone, 'Grunwick' Jack Dromey (of all women shortlist fame) etc.

Despite Mandelson's efforts at re-branding, Neil Kinnock's Labour Party went on to lose the 1987 general election taking only 31% of the vote.

Surprisingly Neil Kinnock stayed on as leader seeing off a challenge by that other left wing loon Anthony Wedgwood Benn. This is the wealthy hypocrite who tried to hide his background by proletarianising his name to Tony Benn. Nice try Anthony!

Much like David Cameron's PR men today, Peter Mandelson's propaganda unit went into overdrive working on Neil Kinnock's image while simultaneously trying to detoxify the party.

This consisted of dropping unpopular policies such as Unilateral Nuclear Disarmament, Clause IV, the Closed Shop etc. but no amount of image making could stop Neil Kinnock from being himself.

By using ten words where one would suffice he got himself a reputation for  bloviating windbaggery which is still his defining feature to this day.

Long winded speeches and inane statements against a formidable opponent like Mrs. Thatcher proved to be disastrous. I am not a Tory supporter but I have to give the Iron Lady credit, she was impressive, she exposed Neil Kinnock for the intellectual lightweight that he is and wiped the floor with him at every exchange.

It must have come as a relief when Mrs Thatcher was deposed in a coup by her treacherous colleagues and replaced by the grey man of politics, John Major. Sensing victory, Neil Kinnock unsuccessfully pushed for an early general election but when it finally came he lost that one too.

His embarrassing appearance at a victory rally in Sheffield the night before the election was blamed for his loss, together with the infamous Sun newspaper headline " If Kinnock wins today, will the last person to leave Britain turn out the lights". I remember it well, it was devastating but effective.

The headline seemed a tad unfair but the truth is that the majority of the British people didn't want a socialist Labour government with a Welsh Windbag as their Prime Minister.

He resigned the Labour leadership 1992 and instead devoting his spare time working to alleviate poverty in his constituency, he abandoned them in order to line his pockets.

Media appearances and the Labour Party/BBC revolving door were not filling his coffers fast enough so he followed his wife Glenys Kinnock and climbed aboard the European Union gravy train in 1995. As with all these riders, taxpayers money started to roll in relentlessly thereafter.

With no qualifications for the job, no experience of life outside politics and not a single vote cast, Neil Kinnock was appointed as Transport Commissioner over more qualified and experienced people. It's that familiar Kinnock stench and it seems to follow this particular family around.

Modelled on the failed Soviet Union, the European Union is a cesspit of financial and political corruption, conceived by politicians and run purely in the interests of politicians.

In 1999, after 5 years in office as Transport Commissioner, Neil Kinnock was forced to resign with the rest of the Jaques Santer corruptocrats after widespread fraud, obstruction and cover ups were discovered in the Commission budget by a whistle blower.

Naturally everybody in the Commission denied all knowledge, so a scapegoat had to be found to fall on their sword and accept punishment. ( This punishment was not so severe as to cost the volunteer her pension). With this dubious action the issue was whitewashed over and the gravy train was back on the rails.

Against all common sense and reason, Neil Kinnock was promoted to Vice President of the European Commission and charged with instituting reform. His reforms included staff salary and pension cuts but, surprise surprise, only for those joining after 2004.

It must have been difficult for a Labour Party socialist like Kinnock to implement budget cuts considering deficit spending is standard operating procedure for any member of the loony left.

By coincidence I'm sure, son Stephen Kinnock rejoins his father when he surfaces in Brussels as a British Council lobbyist in 1997 and gets promoted to Brussels Director in 2002.

In 2004, with his bank account awash with taxpayers money and with his second term as Commissioner drawing to a close, Neil Kinnock is mysteriously appointed head of the British Council. This is a Foreign Office funded front organisation set up to spread cultural propaganda, the arts and other left wing nonsense such as intercultural dialogue.

Wherever there are socialists, money grabbing is not far behind. Members of Parliament, including Labour's former Speaker of the House 'Gorbals' Mick Martin, were involved in a taxpayer funded scandal involving undisclosed expenses charged to the British Council.

Nothing came of it and nobody was punished, it would appear that politicians use a lot of whitewash so that too is obviously claimable on expenses.

That familiar Kinnock family stench, which was evident  from Glenys and Rachel Kinnocks' shenanigans, reared its ugly head again with Neil and his son Stephen.

No sooner than his father was in position with the British Council, Stephen Kinnock gets a much sought after and lucrative position running the British Council office in St Petersburg, Russia.

Scandal wasn't far behind Stephen Kinnock either as the Russians accused the British Council of tax evasion and then Stephen was accused of drunk driving.

Claiming Diplomatic Immunity, he refused a breath test even though British Council staff do not have Diplomatic status. Rumours at the time claim someone behind the scenes pulled some strings but this is not confirmed.

For Neil Kinnock the British Council position was unpaid so in theory at the end of 2004 he was off the taxpayer funded gravy train..........but not for long... only about two months in fact, politicians look after their own.

After vowing never to sit in the House of Lords while hereditary peers remained in place, he accepted a baronetcy, accompanied by the usual taxpayer funded expenses, while 90 Hereditary Peers were still in place.

Neil Kinnock's principles are not worth a taxpayer funded sinecure, which also included access to money wielding lobbyists as a bonus.

What became of Stephen Kinnock when his father left the European Commission?

He was hurried out of Russia and kept his head down in Sierra Leone until the heat had died down from the St, Petersburg scandal, then in 2009 he became a Director of the World Economic Forum.

This is an organisation designed to bring about a new social order by stealth, which was set up under the patronage of the European Commission of which his father was a member. There is a familiar smell about this appointment also but accusations of Kinnock string pulling are unconfirmed.

For the record, scandal prone Stephen Kinnock is married to Danish socialist Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt and he is currently under investigation for tax evasion in Denmark.

So there they sit to this day in perfect harmony, Lord Neil and Baroness Glenys, the socialist hypocrites in the very House of Lords they both claim to despise, trousering taxpayers hard earned money to add to the millions they have already milked.

Estimates put their joint taxpayer funded fortune in the region of ten million pounds. (That's 10,000,000 pounds).

The Kinnock's are an established part of the elite one percent that they hypocritically claim to oppose. They now live in London to be closer to the gravy train and their grandchildren.

Like Daniel arap Moi's constituents in the Rift Valley, the long suffering people of Bedwellty, Islwyn, Blaenau Gwent or whatever they are called now, have served their purpose, they are no longer required and are cast aside.

For their contribution to the estimated Kinnock ten million pound family fortune, the people of Blaenau Gwent got the following in return:

Job Seekers Allowance claimants - 7.8%, the average for Wales 4.4%,  for UK 4.1%

ESA/Incapacity Benefit claimants - 13.3%,  for Wales 9.2%, for UK 6.5%

Unemployed out of work for 12 months 31%, for Wales 15%

Students leaving school with no recognised qualifications  3.1%, for Wales 1.5%

The Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation shows 21% of areas in Blaenau Gwent are in the 10% of the most deprived areas in Wales, a staggering 83% of areas are in the top 50%.

Finally, Child Poverty stands at a disgraceful 20%

Neil and Glenys Kinnock this is part of your legacy and you should be ashamed of yourselves. If your conscience keeps you awake at night try counting tenners instead of sheep.

*Update: Right on cue Guido Fawkes over on order-order.com has released the House of Lords expenses for last year. It turns out that our shameless, troughing first family claimed sixty six thousand pounds of taxpayers money.

Lord Kinnock regularly claims his three hundred pounds per day attendance allowance despite only speaking around once per month.

I live in hope that the people of Blaenau Gwent are paying attention and cease their terminally stupid habit of voting Labour come what may.

Update: Since this was written Stephen Kinnock was foisted on the tribal voters of Aberavon in South Wales and subsequently elected. He now sits in the British Parliament and is currently working tirelessly to overturn the Brexit referendum result and keep the British people locked inside the EU against their wishes.

Glenys Kinnock - Labour Party Hypocrisy In Human Form

Whenever the term socialist hypocrisy is mentioned the first people that spring to mind are the Kinnock family. Its no secret that Neil and Glenys Kinnock have shamelessly made themselves very wealthy by helping themselves to millions of pounds of taxpayers money while at the same time falsely championing equality, fairness and compassion for the poor.

The intention of this post was to examine the first family of troughing as a whole but research revealed that Neil and Glenys Kinnock, together with their spawn, are wealthy ultra hypocrites each in their own right.

Just a rudimentary research lifted the lid on the culture of nepotism and patronage which is the hallmark of the Labour Party and socialist hypocrisy.

I have to give credit to the image makers of the Labour Party, they have the ability to change the public persona of anyone, no matter how awful, into an electable commodity. (see previous postings on Hain, Bryant and co.) Glenys Kinnock is a classic example.

The people were conned into believing that she was the dutiful, fragrant wife of a Labour MP who, as the representative a constituency mired in poverty, had pulled himself up by his own bootstraps to reach the dizzy heights of Leader of the Labour Party.

Glenys Kinnock, we were led to believe, was a noble school teacher dedicated to the education of our children who also empathised with the plight of the poor and downtrodden. The image makers spun that she was a devoted mother who was being touted as a suitable consort for the next Prime Minister of Great Britain.

Absolute nonsense, just scratching the surface of this manufactured image revealed a dedicated, ruthless, hard left extremist with an agenda all of her own.

Her biographies reveal that Glenys Kinnock is a member of the GMB union which is a financial supporter of the Labour Party and famous for its typically socialist habit of ballot rigging.

Glenys is also a member of the NUT (National Union of Teachers). This is now a militant outfit dedicated to the interests of teachers and not to the education of the country's children.

The NUT is led by fellow hard left extremist Christine Blower. In keeping with socialist hypocrisy Blower had an elite education in the Grammar stream of a bilateral school, something which she fights to deny other children.

Her first act as General Secretary of the NUT was to lead the first national teachers strike for decades.

Glenys's colleague Christine Blower lied when she claimed that she didn't belong to any particular faction. Blower was a member of the London Socialist Alliance which morphed into the Socialist Alliance when it welcomed Trotskyist organisations like the Socialist Workers Party, the Internationalist Socialist Group and the extreme communist group Workers Power, into its ranks.

This is the fanatic that leads Glenys's union and influences the education of our children.

Glenys joined the mega gravy train when somehow she gets elected as Member of the European Parliament  for South East Wales, which by coincidence, covers her husband former constituency.

Of all the school teacher mothers in South East Wales, what was it that singled out Glenys Kinnock for this ultra safe seat? There's a bad smell about this appointment and this bad smell turns into a veritable stench when the Kinnock children appear on the Labour Party scene.

Anyway, with a husband and wife team in place surely the people of Blaenau Gwent and South East Wales are in for a new Golden Age of prosperity.

As we've noted previously in the cases of Peter Hain, Chris Bryant et al. when these people get elected they know its a job for life, therefore they take advantage of their new position by putting their constituents needs to one side in order to pursue their personal agenda.

Under the banner of concern for the worlds poor and disadvantaged, Glenys Kinnock set about with gusto her ambition to further the cause of global socialism and the redistribution of other peoples wealth.

Glenys Kinnock's personal agenda kicked off when she joined the Pan European Socialist (PES) group immediately upon her arrival in Brussels.

This insidious group of totalitarians all share a common contempt for democracy.  All members are individual members of the Socialist International which was formed by an alliance of socialist, communist, anarchist and unionist groups from across Europe. This Socialist International split due to the usual hard left habit of bickering over method and is now known as the Progressive Alliance of Socialists.

The current loser in charge of this outfit is the spectacularly incompetent Georges Papandreou, the former Greek socialist Prime Minister who spent his country into bankruptcy and ruin.

Glenys Kinnock who is supposedly committed to spreading democracy elsewhere in the world supported the removal of the democratically elected Papandreou and the imposition of unelected EU bureaucrats to take over the Greek government.

Glenys Kinnock continued to ignore the needs of her constituents and began to redistribute their wealth when she joined the Committee on Development.

This committee was responsible for handing out aid money to developing countries together with the promotion of democratic values and the promotion of good governance and human rights. Glenys also got herself onto the Committee on Citizens' Freedoms, Rights and Justice.

Bearing in mind the actions of the European Union with regard to referendum results and the overthrow of the governments of Greece, Ireland and Italy, its difficult to take Glenys Kinnock's democratic credentials seriously.

In an act of stupefying irony Glenys Kinnock was anointed the Co-President of the African, Caribbean and Pacific-EU Joint Parliamentary Assembly which was supposed to promote Human Rights, Democracy and Common Values between these countries.

The truth is that Glenys Kinnock has been given a taxpayer funded platform which she uses to spread her own and her PES colleagues' failed socialist philosophy around the world.

Interestingly, Glenys Kinnock and her colleagues work within the Contou Agreement which promotes this hug- touchy-feely left wing  nonsense around the developing world. This agreement was signed in Contou, the capital of the West African hell hole of Benin.

After independence Benin became a Marxist country, the type of country preferred by Glenys Kinnock and economic collapse soon followed. In the 1979 elections President Kekokou was duly elected and just like the EU leaders Herman von Rumpuy, Jose Manuel Barrosso and Baroness Ashdown, he was the only candidate allowed.

Kekokou promptly put into practice the same policies preached by Glenys Kinnock, the Labour Party and her fellow EU socialists. He put the petrol industry, the banks, all other businesses and economic activity under government control with predictable results. The professional class left the country, the economy collapsed even further and the country has never recovered.

Be advised that Glenys Kinnock and her Labour Party comrades are busy applying the same failed logic to Wales and history will confirm that the results will be the same. Wales is already more than halfway there.

Glenys Kinnock likes a junket and one famous anecdote had her on a taxpayer funded jolly to Barbados where the banana market was the main issue on the agenda.  If this is how she spends her time it is abundantly clear that poverty and despair in South East Wales is way down the list of her priorities.

More evidence of Glenys Kinnock's hypocrisy is her membership of the British Humanist Association which is dedicated to secularism, human rights, democracy and egalitarianism (the removal of inequalities among people). She has failed on all fronts.

There's precious little human rights in the African countries, who's leaders she rubbed shoulders with as Co-President of the EU-JPA.

Glenys Kinnock could have demonstrated her commitment to egalitarianism by redistributing her own vast wealth among the poor people she represented, but in line with all the other Labour Party hypocrites it is unlikely she will practice what she preaches with her own ill gotten gains.

On the subject of equality, as was the case with socialist governments the world over, Glenys Kinnock has demonstrated that equality is only for the little people it does not apply to the elites of our modern day political class.

The peasants of South East Wales should know their place and give the Labour Party thanks for their generous welfare cheques. In exchange for that thanks your votes will do.

If the choice of Glenys Kinnock as MEP for South East Wales had a bad smell about it then the questionable appointment of her daughter Rachel leaves a real bad odour in the air.

 Rachel Kinnock gave up her job in the taxpayer funded British film industry and surfaced in her mothers taxpayer funded EU office on a taxpayer funded salary. The hard pressed taxpayers of Blaenau Gwent are now paying for not one, not two but three members of the Kinnock family.

Glenys never misses an opportunity to pick the taxpayers pocket for that extra few pennies.  She was caught red handed signing in at dawn on Friday in order to claim the MEP,s daily two hundred and sixty pounds attendance allowance, before heading to the airport for a weekend at home.

There was a fiddle at the airport too. Glenys Kinnock would buy Economy Class tickets then claim Business Class fares from the taxpayer, pocketing the difference. At the airport she would then hassle the check in staff for an upgrade to Business Class, using the "don't you know who I am" ruse no doubt.

It boggles the mind that the hard pressed taxpayers of South East Wales are giving this trougher two hundred and sixty pounds per day on top of her salary and expenses, just for turning up for work.

After fifteen years of selfless devotion to the worlds poor outside of South East Wales and with a taxpayer funded fortune in the bank, that bad odour turns into a outright stench when Glenys Kinnock is offered the job of Minister for Europe in Gordon Browns government.

This position is in the House of Lords, an institution which is supposedly hated by the Kinnocks, who want it abolished. The very same Kinnocks who swore by all that is holy that they would never sit on those red benches until hereditary peers were abolished.

It appears that their long held principles are not worth as much as a taxpayer funded package of allowances and expenses, therefore Baroness Kinnock of Holyhead's backside is firmly planted onto the same red benches as her husband Lord Kinnock of Bedwellty, and their bank accounts are once again being stuffed with taxpayers money.

One drawback of Glenys Kinnock moving seamlessly from the EU gravy train to the House of Lords was that Rachel Kinnock was now out of a job...........but only for a little while.  The stench of nepotism and patronage that accompanies this family returns once more as Rachel surfaces in Gordon Brown's office as a member of his political staff.

Its unclear whether her salary was taxpayer funded or paid out of Labour Party coffers but if past form is anything to go by we can take an educated guess.

It doesn't end there for poor Rachel - when Gordon Brown got kicked out of office she lost her job yet again...........not for long...that old familiar whiff of nepotism comes to her rescue once more. She has now miraculously appeared in Red Ed Miliband's office as an Events Organiser or some other such non job.

Its unlikely that these jobs were advertised to the world outside of the incestuous political class but they are more likely the result of Labour party string pulling, patronage and downright nepotism.

We the people are being used, abused, ripped off and taken for fools.

The Kinnock family are so far removed from the people of South East Wales, and Blaenau Gwent in particular, that they might as well be on another planet.

While she has grown rich out of representing them, the people of South East Wales continue to suffer the indignity and hopelessness of high unemployment, welfare dependency, poor health, substandard educational achievement, drink and drug fuelled crime.

While Glenys Kinnock enjoys the lifestyle of the class she claims to despise, there is no evidence that conditions will ever improve for the people she represented for all those years.

Huw Lewis - Watch Your Back Dai Basra

Please have pity on the long suffering people of Merthyr Tydfil, not only have they lumbered themselves with a piece of dead wood like Dai Havard, they have compounded their misery by electing another non performing Labour Party apparatchik in shape of Huw Lewis.

Like Dai Basra,  Huw Lewis has little or no experience outside the cloistered, incestuous world inhabited by career politicians.

His bio's reveal the awful truth. Huw Lewis finished his education in Scotland where, instead of broadening his horizons by getting some experience in the wealth creating sector, he went to work for the Scottish Labour Party. If the Labour Party in Wales is a closed shop in Scotland its bordering on the Mafia.

Take note Dai Basra, Huw Lewis is well connected, he worked for John Smith,  Donald Dewar and the so called political heavyweights Doug and Wendy Alexander,  he is reputed to be a formidable political campaigner. With credentials and connections like this he is wasted in Cardiff Bay. He is destined for higher things so watch your back Dai.

After his stint with the Scottish Labour Party Huw Lewis spent 4 years as a chemistry teacher, this will give him window dressing cover and gives him the right to claim that he has worked outside politics. (Its an old trick and is currently being used by that other career political shyster David Cameron).

After his spell as a teacher Huw Lewis was soon back in the political fold, his next career move was Assistant General Secretary of the Welsh Labour Party. Finally in 1999 he climbed aboard the gravy train when he was elected to the Welsh Assembly and he's been failing there ever since.

For a staunch believer in the redistribution of wealth there is no evidence of any wealth creating experience on his CV.

From the previous post it can be seen in the Welsh Government's own jargon riddled reports, that since 1999 the social conditions in his constituency have gone from bad to appalling. They are truly shocking, especially with respect to child poverty, health, life expectancy and educational performance.

Deputy Minister for Children indeed, shame on you Huw Lewis!! How can you sleep at night.

It would be laughable if its wasn't so tragic but Huw Lewis as Deputy Minister for Social Justice, reviewed the Welsh Governments Anti Poverty Programme, named Community First and as an insult to the children of Wales he also wrote the Welsh Governments Action Plan to eliminate child poverty!!

This is such an epic failure that if Huw Lewis had a shred of decency he would resign.

Keeping it in the family, Huw is married to life long socialist and fellow Assembly Member Lynne Neagle, another tax and spend wealth redistributor with no experience in the wealth creating sector.

Before joining her husband on the gravy train Lynne Neagle worked in the voluntary sector and also as a researcher for troughing expert and wealthy socialist hypocrite Glenys Kinnock.

It appears that Lynne and Huw have picked up the Kinnock family penchant for getting rich on taxpayers money. Expenses? Fill ya boots its only the fruit of other peoples labour.

The transport links between the Valleys and Cardiff are trumpeted as being excellent hence the unemployed people of Merthyr and Torfaen have been chastised in the past for refusing job vacancies in the City area, its hypocritical therefore for Huw Lewis and Lynne Neagle to be representing their constituencies from Penarth. Set an example you two wasters, hold your noses and live with the people you are supposed to be representing.

Its hard to understand what these people have been doing all these years, social conditions in Lynne Neagle's constituency of Torfaen are no better than those in her husbands constituency of Merthyr Tydfil. By any measure they are both epic failures.

We in the dissenting community have, using the information contained in their own reports, have come to the conclusion that for todays' unprincipled politicians the gaining and hanging on to power is the top priority and not the well being of the people.

They are nothing but poverty pimps who know that a free and prosperous people, financially independant of government, wouldn't go near them with a ten foot bargepole.

The promise of welfare 'entitlements' from cradle to grave, the demonisation of wealth creators and the threat that the 'other lot' will take it all away is their ticket to power. Their failure to improve the conditions of the people after years of unfettered power is a testimony to this.

Huw Lewis and Dai Havard do have three things in common. They are both members of ( and supported by) the strike prone union Unite which is run by communist sympathiser Red Len McCluskey, they are both dedicated to the same failed 19th century political philosophy and finally, they are both non performing failures who have betrayed the people of Merthyr Tydfil and should resign forthwith.

While we're on the subject of socialist hypocrisy, we'll take a look at at the Kinnocks next.

*Update* Just a brief look at their history has revealed that the hypocrisy, nepotism and money grabbing by this family is beyond the pale, We'll take a look at Glenys Kinnock first and take it from there.
