Gerry Gable fires Nick Lowles?

After Gerry Gable sacked Nick Lowles and replaced him by appointing Sonia Gable as his own deputy editor of his magazine that has gone from colour to black and white format (perhaps due to financial problems?), Nick Lowles appears as head of Hatred, Not Hope.

In one of his writings, misguided as usual, Nick Lowles seems confused about the issue of the Poppy, that he seems to believe belongs to a single political organization. One wonders where Nick Lowles has been since he was born. The Poppy, as we all know, is a cherished symbol for all Nationalists and does not belong to any one of them in particular.

The Poppy is a National symbol and both Nick Griffin and Andrew Brons as Members of the European Parliament representing Britain want to protect the Poppy. This is the one issue that truly unites all Nationalists despite ideological or personal differences and, once again, Nick Lowles has miserably failed to grasp the concept of what it means to be a Nationalist.

Nationalists might disagree with each other on nuances or ways of achieving our aims but when it counts we will all stand together, shoulder to shoulder, for the greater cause. Our werewolves are not somebody else's werewolves. They are our werewolves because they are Nationalist werewolves and I cherish them despite all their criticisms and Nick Lowles can go and think again.

My advice to Nick Lowles would be to go and ask all Nationalists inside and outside the British National Party what they feel about the Poppy. All Nationalists, inside and outside the British National Party stand for the Poppy.

A new country called State of Uncertainty

Grim faces indicating impending doom are now the rule rather than the exception. The Feel Good Factor of Big Society is nowhere to be found and strikes are in the air. The whole package is "work longer if you manage to keep a job and pay more for a reduced pension eaten by inflation created by higher taxes."

Fuel tax and all other taxes are basically multiplying factors that generate inflation. There is no escape from this. Businesses are going to transfer the taxation burden to consumers in the shape of price increases. The more taxes we pay, the higher prices in the shops will be. As prices rise, people with reduced incomes buy less and less and sooner than later employees are no longer needed because sales go down.

If people are afraid of what may happen to their jobs, they will naturally spend less, even if they still have buying power. This is not only about economics. It is also about psychology because psychology has a lot to do with what is going at the moment. At the end of the day, everything is about trust and trust is missing because those in power don't trust those who are governed and viceversa.

The crisis is not about choosing between Capitalism or State Control. It is about balanced economics and balanced economics is missing because of widespread corruption.

Why is the Poppy under attack?

The Poppy is under attack from two quarters: Islamic operators and Left-Wing operators. Why? In the very same way that national flags, anthems and memorials are reminders of the existence of a national identity, the Poppy is very much the one poignant symbol of lives lost during wars fought for the Defence of the Realm and the Protection of British Interests.

What does the Poppy remind us of? The Cross. A Red Cross on a white background was the emblem of the Crusaders that fell in the Middle East and Asia Minor in the Defense of the Blood of Christ and of Jerusalem. A Red Cross also happens to be the flag of England.

Islamic Extremists hate the Poppy because they hate the Cross, symbol of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. In the Unity of the Cross, now also represented by the Poppy, we stand together against the Common Enemy.

They build Mosques and they take over Christian Temples, they burn the Poppy and they burn National Flags in an effort to desecrate everything that is Anathema to them. Their anger is not the anger due to something that is happening in our times. It is the anger of centuries of Islamic hatred against the Cross.

For many becoming independent was not nearly enough. They needed to travel to destroy their Ancestral Enemy and this is why they are coming by the hundreds of thousands. This is no mere immigration for financial reasons. Some liberal operators naively see it as 'Integration'. It is nothing of the sort. They are coming to destroy the Christendom.

For all Nationalists, of all party political allegiances, the Poppy is the symbol of identity and resistance to foreign invasion.

Papandreou: If the Greek people don't want the deal, the deal will not be adopted

It is refreshing to think that somewhere in Europe there is a Prime Minister able and willing to recognize that Democracy means giving his own people the opportunity to decide. Western commentators said that the Referendum proposed by Papandreou was "Suicide" and this speaks volumes about the concept the said Western commentators have of what is and what isn't Democracy.

No matter how difficult the circumstances that Greece faces, Big Society is not about the idiotic posturing of a British Prime Minister. Big Society is about people choosing their own destiny. If the Greek people are the ones who are going to face decades of hardship, it is up to the Greek people to decide.

Britain instead has to deal with deaf rulers that some say do not give a damn about the hardships of the British people. One hopes that the Greek Prime Minister had taken the decision of calling for a Referendum a long time ago, leaving the Euro and adopting the Dracma.

From the start, it was self-evident that the adoption of the Euro was not an economic decision. It was a political decision and a decision that Greece would later regret. Those promoting the Euro said that 'it would facilitate trade'. What they didn't say is that it would create the illusion of wealth that would lead many to self-destruction.

We all know what happened to the Exchange Rate Mechanism. In fact, trying to stick to the Exchange Rate Mechanism, under Chancellor Norman Lamont, Britain lost more than 10 billion pound overnight. Britain did not join the Euro. Unfortunately, for ideological reasons, Britain signed financial agreements to support the Euro even when it did not adopt the Euro.

Admirals without Navy?

Some Latin American countries have Admirals but no Navy and Britain is reaching the point when we could be compared to Bolivia - a landlocked Latin American country that used to have access to the Pacific Ocean before losing a war against Chile. The Daily Telegraph tells the story with a headline: No warships left defending Britain after Defense cutbacks.

In last year's defense review, budget cuts left Britain with 19 frigates. The loss of aircraft carriers is vox populi. They say that two plane carriers will be delivered in ten years time but without airplanes and talks continue to try and see if America and France will provide what is needed to protect Britain.

Proportional Representation and a written Constitution

The Election of a new Senate to replace the House of Lords using Proportional Representation will lead to major Constitutional developments. The House of Commons will continue to be elected using First Past the Post and the Senate (House of Lords) will be elected using a similar mechanism to the one used to elected Members of the London Assembly via the London Wide List.

What most people do not realize is that in order to prevent conflicts between the two elected Houses of Parliament and between the two Houses of Parliament and the Executive represented by the Prime Minister and the Cabinet, there will have to be specific written rules. The Parliament Act will no longer be a valid instrument.

Given the way the system is structured, there is a great degree of confusion regarding the prerogatives of the Executive, the Legislative and the Judiciary and more often than not legal precedents are being created by Judiciary verdicts that take precedence over decisions made by Parliament.

The separation of powers will have to be clearer and guaranteed by written rules. Otherwise, we could end up with a permanent political standstill.

We must look at the way Proportional Representation works in other countries where Proportional Representation is the key for Presidential systems rather than Parliamentary systems.

Greece will have a Referendum on the Euro Aid Package

Just a few days ago, once again, Parliament denied the British people a Referendum on Europe despite the promises made by the Conservative Party, the Labour Party and the Liberal Democratic Party.

Today, we learn that the Greek government has called for a Referendum to ask the Greek people if they accept or reject the aid package negotiated by the European Union.

Now, let’s compare the two realities: the Greek government is not afraid of asking its own people about an aid package that will literally mean that Greece will no longer be an independent country and will be run by European Union officials and officials of the International Monetary Fund that will be based in Athens. At the same time, the British government is so afraid of British public opinion that they are willing to continue making false promises.

Well, Democracy started in Greece. We want a Referendum. People who are for the European Union and people who are against the European Union want a Referendum. Why? They want a Referendum because only those who believe that they can have the British people behind them want a Referendum.

Let’s wait and see the reaction of Angela Merkel and of Nicholas Sarkozy listening to the Greek news. Will they behave as Democratic leaders or will they criticize the Greek government for being loyal to the Greek people?
