Sorry I have not kept up with the blog have been away at the Annual Martial Arts Camp I organise every year, found this in my inbox.
Maybe there is hope for Britain:
A maverick mayor elected after promising to slash council spending, clear the streets of yobs and ditch politically correct services is the torchbearer for how towns should be run. On his first morning as Mayor of Doncaster in South Yorkshire, Peter Davies cut his salary from £73,000 to £30,000 then closed the council’s newspaper for "peddling politics on the rates". Now three weeks into his job, Mr Davies is pressing ahead with plans he hopes will see the number of town councillors cut from 63 to just 21, saving taxpayers £800,000. Mr Davies said: "If 100 senators can run the United States of America, I can’t see how 63 councillors are needed to run Doncaster". He has withdrawn Doncaster from the Local Government Association and the Local Government Information Unit, saving another £200,000. Mr Davies said, "They are just talking shops". "Doncaster is in for some serious un-twinning. We are twinned with probably nine other cities around the world and they are just for people to fly off and have a binge at the council’s expense". The mayor’s chauffeur-driven car has also been axed by Mr Davies and the driver given another job. Mr Davies, born and bred in Doncaster, swept to power in the May election with 24,244 votes as a candidate for the English Democrats, a party that wants tight immigration curbs, an English Parliament and a law forcing every public building to fly the flag of St. George. He has promised to end council funding for Doncaster’s International Women’s Day, Black History Month and the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender History Month. He said, "Politicians have got completely out of touch with what people want. "We need to cut costs. I want to pass on some savings I make in reduced taxes and use the rest for things we really need, like improved children’s services". Mr Davies has received messages from well wishers across the country and abroad as news of his no-nonsense approach spreads.

Greedy Employers
I have to laugh when people say that our benefit system is to generous it maybe for a family and bogus invalidity claimants but for a single man it is not One of my tenants has been unemployed for two years and NO he can not get a job I know because I have written countless references for him. He gets his rent and Council tax paid by the council, his food electric, water gas, clothes etc he pays for out of his £65 a week unemployment benefit on occasions I have had to give him food. The real culprits are British Employers who hire foreign labour with excuses they have no one here trained WELL Train them he cannot be that hard to train someone to pick strawberries, stack shelves or drive a Fork Lift. These employers would rather see their own country man starve then lose profit
WHATS THAT STINK
Local Conservative Parliamentary Candidate, Gordon Henderson, has written to the Environment Agency and urged them to review the way in which they regulate the way that waste-paper sludge and sewage sludge is used for agricultural purposes.
Mr Henderson’ s action follows hundreds of complaints about foul and objectionable smells coming from fields in different parts of the constituency, including Bredgar, Iwade and Leysdown.
Mr Henderson said:
‘We are told that using this sludge as fertiliser is a wide-spread practice that is monitored and regulated by the Environment Agency.
‘If this is true, then all I can say is that the Environment Agency is not making a very good job of ensuring that the sludge does not have an impact on the quality of life of those residents and businesses who are affected by its use.
‘The stench from the fields is quite repulsive and although it only lingers for a relatively short time, one day of the obnoxious smell is a day too long.
‘I have written to the Environment Agency and asked them to review the way they regulate the use of sludge. If they are going to allow the continued use of the sludge then the Agency should insist that it is treated in a way that removes the worst of the smell.
‘Meanwhile, I would urge anybody who is affected by these smells to contact the Environment Agency direct to complain. The more people who complain, the more likely we are to see action.’

Who needs even more politicians
Local Tory candidate, Gordon Henderson, has attacked Labour plans for a new tier of regional politicians and a regional levy on council tax.
It had been thought that the Government had abandoned its plans for regional assemblies in the face of widespread opposition. However, a government minister has made clear that the assemblies are back on the political agenda.
Mr Henderson said:
‘The new Minister for Regional Government has made it clear that she intends to champion John Prescott’s lost cause of an elected regional assembly for the South East.
“The Government doesn’t seem to have grasped that we need fewer politicians, not more. The way they keep trying to resurrect these unwanted assemblies is a bit like the awakening of the living dead.
“What we need is a Conservative Government to drive a stake through the heart of regional government and kill it off once and for all!”
Mr Henderson’s comments follow news that:-
· Elected regional assemblies are back on Ministers’ agenda: Rosie Winterton is the new Minister for ‘Regional Economic Coordination’. She worked closely with John Prescott on his plans for regional assemblies. In a recent Ministerial keynote speech on regional government, Ms Winterton said she would not let elected regional government “slip off the agenda”, “I have always been in favour of regional government”, it is “the obvious answer” and “we will come back to it”.
· Labour ignore ‘no’ vote to regional government: Elected regional assemblies had been killed off when the public overwhelmingly rejected regional government in the 2004 North East referendum. Yet the unelected regional assemblies still exist, but have merely changed their brass plaques, and are morphing into an even more convoluted structure of unelected Regional Development Agencies and unelected Regional Leaders Forums. New ‘Integrated Regional Strategies’ are to be imposed over the head of (name of local council).
· New regional politicians to be bankrolled by regional council tax: Under Labour’s blueprint, regional assemblies will need a new tier of regional politicians and regional elections. The elected assemblies will be funded by a regional levy on council tax, like the Greater London Authority. The assemblies would be able to “set a higher precept within the region to fund additional spending”. In London, the regional tier of government now costs £310 a year on Band D bills.

TORTURE
I have to look in amazement when I read the articles in newspapers where the British Government are supposed to be involved in torture through their secret service. I refer of course to Binyam Mohamed while he was being held incommunicado in Pakistan. He maintains he was tortured by the British Secret Service while in Pakistan yet he was held in incommunicado (deprived of Communication) how did he know he was in Pakistan? He was in Pakistan with a false passport associating with members of the Taliban and was arrested and kept Guantánamo Bay for many years where he claims he was tortured by the yanks and deprived of Food, if you see photos of him arriving in the UK he looked in perfect health.
So here we have man who associates with terrorists, lies about his name age and country of origin, who is not even a UK Subject, someone who was refused political asylum, some one who was arrested by the Americans not the British being given Tax payer money to sue the British Government for something he can not prove. Now the Human Rights pariahs have jumped on the bandwagon in comes all those Millionaire Lawyers paid for by the tax payer who will milk the system. Binyam Mohamed should be sent back to Ethiopia where he came from and he should be made to pay back all the money he conned the British Tax payer out of.

Coach accused
Top Martial Arts Coach Accused
A Top British Martial Arts Coach has been accused of “Inappropriate Behaviour” and has been suspended by his governing body and told not to visit his own club, yet this Coach has told me he has not been informed of what the accusation is or who has accused him. The governing body has informed the local Police who are investigating him and they in turn have not told him of the accusation etc, now if the Coach is telling me the truth then this can open a real can of worms.
1) Surely it is the right of every Englishman to be able to face his accuser and their accusation
2) Is a man not innocent till proven guilty
As for us Judo and Sports Coaches if the above is true anyone of us can be accused by some one who has a grudge against us, which could wreck of career, our private life and cause us mental anguish. Child Protection has become paramount in sport and rightly so but it is fast becoming Monster which will extinguish Children Sport altogether. No longer is a Scout Master, Cub Mistress a Junior Judo/Sports Coach looked upon with respect for giving up their time to work and help with children our obsession with Child Protection has made the public look with distain upon this group of well meaning people. WHY DO THEY WANT TO BE WITH CHILDREN? That is the question asked ARE THEY NORMAL is the next one soon no one will want to supervise Children in fact the Ultimate Child Protection is not to let any Adult teach children
Now before you say Martin is over reacting let me give example at what happened at our club several years ago.
One of our Karate Instructors was accused of touching a young teenager inappropriately, the father contacted me and wanted me to deal with the matter which I presume he meant sack the Coach, this I reused to do and told him if was 100% sure of facts he must contact the Police which he subsequently done. I immediately contacted the Coach and told him of the accusation which he denied, I then explained that I would get a meeting of all other Coaches and decide what we would do. All the coaches agreed that the charges brought by the Girl were so outlandish (The assault supposedly took part in front of the whole class yet no one saw the incident) so we decided to allow him to Coach but supervised by one of the other Coaches. His ordeal lasted a Year at the end of 12 months the Police said there was nothing answers for! Was there an apology from the Girl, parent or police NO only a parting word from a Women PC “you got away with it this time?” The Instructor is no longer with us dying in tragic circumstances.
Now if the same happened today we would have no option but to suspend him and after the result of a year’s investigation with the Karate Instructor subsequently being proved innocent
1) He would be considered a pervert
2) The Club would have to close and 50 children would no longer have a club to go to
3) All the clubs coaches would be stigmatises (No smoke without fire) coaches would feel obliged to leave and club would have to close which had been in existence for 50 years. For what maybe something as stupid as the Coaches daughter getting a higher grade

Foreign Workers and the Horn
With reports that unemployment figures could reach 4 million, I thought you and your readers would be interested in a rumour that is floating around the town of Sittingbourne with regard to the new Morrison’s developments. It seems that Morrison does can not get the right type of worker from the local people so they intend importing 200 Polish, Russian and Ukrainian workers from their other branches, the reason for this is that they are already trained. My question is “who trained them? And can not the same people who trained them train local people?”
An acquaintance of mine was working at a very large farm in Canterbury drilling a well; he asked the Manager why there were only foreign workers doing the strawberry picking. The standard answer was “we can not get English people to do the job” yet when was the last time you saw an advert in a local paper advertising “Fruit Pickers wanted”? He then asked if could apply for a job, the answer we only deal with an Agency and yes you have guessed the Agency only employs foreign workers.
Two examples of why British Business are not supporting the English working man, they use foreign cheap scab labour to line their own pockets to make themselves and their share holders richer, pure greed. Surely the purpose of creating a business is not just about making money for yourself but surely to create wealth for the community at large or is this Christian ideal to much for Britain today.
Lastly a little bit of PC madness a friend of mine is a manager of a fork lift company; he had to attend a meeting of a large Supermarket company (not one that is in Sittingbourne) about a complaint made against one of his service engineers. It seems when he written a report on the work he had done he had used the phrase “The horn button was hanging of so I re assembled the horn which is now working” it seems the word “Horn” has sexual connotations its use could lead to a worker being traumatised, it was proposed that “Hooter” should be used NO as this had American Sexual Connotations as Hooter in the US could mean Ladies “Breasts” they have agreed on the word “Audible Instrument” this is perfectly true obviously I can not give the name of Manager as he would be sacked.
This is 2009 Britain Notice I no longer use the word Great,

We know some of us enjoy Starbucks, but this is beyond words......
Recently, British Royal Marines in Iraq wrote toStarbucks because they wanted to let them know how much theyliked their coffees, and to request that they send some ofit to the troops there. Starbucks replied, telling the Royal Marinesthank you for their support of their business, but thatStarbucks does not support the war, nor anyone in it, andthat they would not send the troops their brand of coffee. So as not to offend Starbucks, maybe we shouldsupport them by NOT buying any of their products! I feel we should get this out in the open. I knowthis war might not be very popular with some folks, but thatdoesn't mean we don't support the boys on theground, fighting street-to-street and, house-to-house. If you feel the same as I do then please pass this along. Thanks very much for your support. I know you'll all be there
again to support us when we deploy once more.
Sgt. Howard Wright, 1 Platoon, Recon Company, Royal Marines PLEASE BE KIND ENOUGH AND DON'T DELETETHIS... BUT PLEASE PASS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR E- MAIL LIST, INMEMORY OF ALL THE TROOPS WHO HAVE BEEN WOUNDED, LOST LIMBSAND EVEN DIED, SO THAT WE MAY HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE ! Also, please don't forget that when the TwinTrade Towers were hit, the fire fighters and rescue workerswent to Starbucks because it was close by for water for thesurvivors and workers, and Starbucks CHARGED THEM!!! AN ADDED NOTE TO THIS: STARBUCKS HAD STORES ONSEVERAL MILITARY BASES IN THE UNITED STATES. THEY ARE NOWBEING REMOVED BECAUSE OF THIS. There are 227 Starbucks stores across the UK, andthere's no doubt that our soldiers would get the sameresponse from this company, so let us do our bit and boycottStarbucks to show them how despicable their actions are............................

Have the Lunatics taken over
The government have just announced they will be reducing the amount of funding to schools, people on the NHS can not get life saving drugs because of cost, our troops do not have enough funding for helicopters and what is Nu Labours answer “allow 1 million illegal immigrants access to our already fund stricken NHS”
We are being told that it could take a generation to reduce knife crime. Nu Labour answer “Try and attract Travellers/Gypsies to join the Police by lowering standards for them”
illegal immigrants make human chains at Calais docks to stop cars from England and rob them at knife point, the French Government says it is our fault as we encourage them with our generous benefits system, what is Nu Labours answer “allow 1 million illegal immigrants access to our already fund stricken NHS”
Can some one tell me if the inmates have taken over the Lunatic Asylum?

Eat Locally
The Government plus many other so called experts tell us that Climate Change is a man made phenomena I not sure I believe them because all I see is a way to collect extra taxes. Yet some of things they suggest to cut down on Climate gases etc is to stop the travelling of produce we can source locally, something I agree with . Let return to eating what is grown in this country and when it is in season for some years I have been using Chiltern Manner farm for my soft fruits, a local farmer being supported by local people, his strawberries, cherries, raspberries etc are superb like many other local growers nothing taste better then fresh fruit from the farm it has been picked and when the season has finished we move on to other fruits like apples, plums and pears. Because I eat these products only when they are in season I am enjoy them even more. Most importantly these fruits did not travel thousands of miles eating fuel, plus I am supporting a local farmer and his workforce.

I know quite a few of you read my Blog but it is alway a pleasure when you get a comment especially from some one you do not know.

What is it about a flat that would suit a "British subject" rather than a darkie?Perhaps it has electric lights. We all know that those bone-through-the-nose savages think that electricity is some kind of voodoo magic.And a Frenchman would, no doubt, be puzzled by the lavatory - how would he know that over here we don't defecate into a hole in the ground?Or maybe it would suit a "British subject" because the landlord's a great big racist.Just a thought...

Answer to Gay JB
My comments in last week EKG about propaganda being used by KCC in promoting Homosexuals received a response which I am pleased with it’s a pity the subscriber cowardly hid behind Address supplied, always destroys ones case when you try to hide. JB accuses me of being Homophobic which means the fear of Homosexuals and since this Nu Labour government came to power I am I am also have a fear of Ethnic minorities. Not a fear of being attacked etc but a justified fear that as a White Heterosexual Male myself, my children and my grand children no longer have equal rights as these groups, for example jobs which have no bearing on sexually or colour of skin I.e. Police, Fire Brigade and many other government departments are be offered to Homosexuals and ethnics only! This is wrong and I do not want hear no mumbo jumbo about jobs should represent society A JOB SHOULD GO TO THE BEST PERSON Capable of doing the job. Interesting enough JB compares homosexually as a religion that is how far Nu Labour has taken GAY rights to the level of a New Religion. I never condoned the persecution of Homosexuals and thought it was right when it was legalised what some one does between the sheets is their business but I will never understand and will agree that the physical act of Homosexuals is no more then a sexual deviancy and should not be seen as normal. The red herring of suggesting that it must be taught in schools because it alternative life style is rubbish the only difference between Heterosexual and Homosexual life style is one wants normal sex Male/Female and the other wants same sex Male/Male etc an alternative life style would be for example someone who wants live the woods and live purely of the land without any assistance. No you militant Homosexuals should be reminded that you are not superior to us and most of your activities are about you trying to justify your sexual behaviour, the few Homosexuals I know do not act camp, do not wear there sexual preference on their arm they just get on with life and in with the rest of society with no problems. JB dream is for people like me not to be allowed to criticise him or be allowed to have letters printed , so much fro free speech, so much for democracy ,

Henderson and Cameron
Gordon Henderson is the Parliamentry Candidate for the Conservative Party for Sittingbourne & Sheppy and I am pleased to say that I shall be voting for him just read the letter from him below and you will see why.
I think David Cameron was wrong to apologise to the Gay Mafia about Section 28 "the promotion of Homosexuallity is banned in Schools" The important word is promotion since the section 28 was abolished Gay Milatents are encouraging youngsters to have a Gay Relationship to experience Homosexual acts before they condem it! Cameron goes on to say he will increase Gay rights, I think there are a lot more important issues then Gay Rights plus what about HetroSexuals (Normal people) Rights, Cameron is being fooled by giving Homosexuals extra rights.
The Editor
East Kent Gazette
(via email)
Dear Madam
I would like to respond to three letters in this week’s Gazette.
Ashley Wise accuses me of defending “dirty campaigning” without spelling out the nature of that campaign. I can only assume he is referring to the Conservative leaflet which highlighted Derek Wyatt’s monthly £2800 second home expense claim and queried whether he was morally justified in claiming this when he no longer lived in the constituency. That was a valid question for which we make no apology.
Barry Pearson concluded his rather intemperate anti-Tory rant with a request that I set out my policies, rather than criticise our soon to be ex-MP. I will provide a comprehensive list of my views during the General Election campaign, whenever it comes, however, I am happy to give Barry a flavour now!
If elected I will continue to support the campaign by pensioners for a higher basic state pension and free transport on trains (in addition to the current bus pass).
I will campaign for a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty and if the treaty has already been ratified by all the other member states I will campaign for a referendum on Britain’s continued membership of the EU.
I will campaign for controlled immigration and better border controls. I will campaign for a reduction in the amount of political correctness that bedevils our society and for zero tolerance of crime and anti-social behaviour. There is much more to come, but that will do for starters!
Finally, can I assure Keith Nevols that the youth forum held at Sittingbourne Community College was not a “Conservative Party promotion”. The event was organised as part of visit to the constituency by the Shadow Home Secretary, Chris Grayling MP. Chris didn’t want to hear what other politicians thought (he knows their opinion!) he wanted, and got, to hear the views of local youngsters.
It is quite wrong of Mr Nevols to criticise the police and SCC for taking part in the forum. I am sure they would have afforded the same courtesy to either the Labour Home Secretary, or, the Liberal Democrats’ Home Office spokesman had they visited the constituency.
Yours sincerely

I think David Cameron was wrong to apologise to the Gay Mafia about Section 28 "the promotion of Homosexuallity is banned in Schools" The important word is promotion since the section 28 was abolished Gay Milatents are encouraging youngsters to have a Gay Relationship to experience Homosexual acts before they condem it! Cameron goes on to say he will increase Gay rights, I think there are a lot more important issues then Gay Rights plus what about HetroSexuals (Normal people) Rights, Cameron is being fooled by giving Homosexuals extra rights.
The Editor
East Kent Gazette
(via email)
Dear Madam
I would like to respond to three letters in this week’s Gazette.
Ashley Wise accuses me of defending “dirty campaigning” without spelling out the nature of that campaign. I can only assume he is referring to the Conservative leaflet which highlighted Derek Wyatt’s monthly £2800 second home expense claim and queried whether he was morally justified in claiming this when he no longer lived in the constituency. That was a valid question for which we make no apology.
Barry Pearson concluded his rather intemperate anti-Tory rant with a request that I set out my policies, rather than criticise our soon to be ex-MP. I will provide a comprehensive list of my views during the General Election campaign, whenever it comes, however, I am happy to give Barry a flavour now!
If elected I will continue to support the campaign by pensioners for a higher basic state pension and free transport on trains (in addition to the current bus pass).
I will campaign for a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty and if the treaty has already been ratified by all the other member states I will campaign for a referendum on Britain’s continued membership of the EU.
I will campaign for controlled immigration and better border controls. I will campaign for a reduction in the amount of political correctness that bedevils our society and for zero tolerance of crime and anti-social behaviour. There is much more to come, but that will do for starters!
Finally, can I assure Keith Nevols that the youth forum held at Sittingbourne Community College was not a “Conservative Party promotion”. The event was organised as part of visit to the constituency by the Shadow Home Secretary, Chris Grayling MP. Chris didn’t want to hear what other politicians thought (he knows their opinion!) he wanted, and got, to hear the views of local youngsters.
It is quite wrong of Mr Nevols to criticise the police and SCC for taking part in the forum. I am sure they would have afforded the same courtesy to either the Labour Home Secretary, or, the Liberal Democrats’ Home Office spokesman had they visited the constituency.

Press Discrimination
I recently tried to advertise my Flats to let in one of the local Kent newspapers and was refused because they considered the piece illegal under Discriminatory laws. The section that offend them was “Suit Mature British Subject” when I contacted them to complain I asked what discriminatory about the ad was the word Mature or was it British Subject? Yes you have guessed right it was British Subject. I tried to explain to this female that I had intentionally used the word SUIT so it would not be considered inflammatory in any way, I then went on say if this was discriminatory then using the word MATURE would discriminate against the IMMATURE, or what about adverts that state NO SMOKERS this discriminates against SMOKERS or no PETS does this discriminate against PET LOVERS or NO DSS I can go on. It seems the latter are OK it that horrible word BRITISH SUBJECT a word that you used said with pride but now is considered something to be ashamed of, well according to this paper.
At the end of the conversation she admitted that the owner had directed her not accept the add as may lead to complaints, so our crusading press are now worried about complaints Good job the daily Telegraph had some balls. I have been on the Internet and checked up about Discrimination Laws and can confirm that there is nothing which can refer to my ad. If the owner had said I do not want the Ad rather the hide behind some fictitious law nothing more can be said
So why all the trouble well in all honesty I only want British Passport Holders no matter what colour or religion because at the front of the building I have a Martial Arts Club where children train so if required I need to get a Criminal Records check on my Tenants, a full CRB check can only be done on British Subjects all others you only check on when they entered the country. It is a well known fact that paedophiles, murders and rapists have been allowed in without any checks. I feel I have a duty of care to the children. Also by law I am expected to give a written contract if the tenant can not read English how can he read it? Finally I am not interested in transient tenants who have no references and are living of the backs of the state. I have on occasions rented to non British Subjects but these have always been people I have got to know through my international martial arts Connections.
Dear Blog reader I have sent a copy of this to the various local and Kent newspaper but do not hold your breath for it to be printed, Freedom of Speech in the UK only exists on the Blogosphere

Barnyard and Summer
Summer is here time to enjoy the evenings sitting in your garden after a hard days work enjoying a cold drink NO! As you sit down some moron lights a fire with smoke not only driving you in doors but making you shut doors and windows, I hope you read this in Gaze Hill, then comes the Party goers who think it is a good idea to light a massive bonfire at 4 in the morning and have loud music accompanied by shouting hope you read this in East Street.
In the present economic climate you would have thought our local council would do there best to support local business? Not so it seems The Barnyard at Upchurch has installed a Marquee for weddings etc and improved their alfresco eating area, which has been done in a very professional way. It seems they have done this without planning permission and of course ignoring planning regulation is nearly as bad as being a terrorists in this country, so the full might of the Council is being used to destroy this so called blot on the landscape but this will lead to many local people losing their jobs and maybe even the business folding and what of the barn well that can go into disrepair, the fields over grown but that will natural part of the landscape! I do not have the full story only what I read in the paper and of course we need planning laws and maybe the owners of Barnyard should be chastised but surely a compromise could be reached here is a suggestion.
Give planning on the decking and car park that effects no one and cannot be seen from any distance, it does not create any extra noise, this will encourage the Barnyard to make business remember it not only a business but a tourist attraction so benefits Swale as a whole. The owners say they erected this Tent to test the market to see if it worth spending Hundreds of Thousands of pounds on another Barn, well if that is the case why do not the Council say you can leave the Tent up for a further two years to test the water as such then it will come down, the owners can not complain because they have admitted it is not a permanent fixture, the Council have flexed there muscles and appeased the NIMBY’s everyone is happy. The recent disgraceful behaviour of some MP’s plus the KCC Iceland bank debacle should make all politicians and civil servants realise that the public have had enough of being treated a some misguided child who does not understand, remember the old Lefty saying “Power to the People” well hopefully David Cameron will make that come true

KCC Elections
I was on holiday and missed the excitement of the elections I did vote by post. AS a Tory I wanted us to win and I am pleased to that Dan Hannan was once again returned as a MEP, mind you why I bothered voting in the Euro elections is beyond me, as our own MP’s come under scrutiny for fiddling the EU do not have to balance their books and MEP’s like the Kinnocks become Multi Millionaires but my main reason for is writing is for KCC dominated council not to be cocky with their majority because it was not because of the job they have done with KCC in the past it was because people were sick to death of Labour. It has been many years since I considered voting for an other party but because the last Conservative KCC has wasted an exorbitant amount of money on their Web TV project, plus the Iceland fiasco and their promotion no I will go further their proper gander on promoting Homosexuality in schools. I am sick to death of being told that Homosexuals are superior to the rest of us cannot something’s be kept to the bedroom. As luck had it our sitting KCC Councillors were labour and quite a good duo by all accounts, so I could vote for Messer’s Willacombe and Whiting both who I know are good local councillors both new brooms to help sweep clean the old KCC hopefully all the other new Tory Councillors will help in this task
Turkey
VALMAR TRIP TO KALKAN TURKEY
June 1st – 10th 2009
This was our second trip to Turkey the last was about 16 years ago when I had to attend an IBF Conference, it was in Istanbul which I did not like one bit. So with some trepidation we decided on a holiday on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. Why? One I wanted some sun with blue seas at a reasonable price, holidaying in the Euro Zone was not just expensive but not value for money, all the decent areas had become havens for drunken Brits of all ages with tacky shops etc just look at the comedy programme Benidorm and you will get the idea. So I searched the internet for an apartment, I did not want a Hotel and certainly did not want All Inclusive. I have only had one experience with All Inclusive and that was when Valerie paid for a week in Forte Ventura for our 25th wedding anniversary, we had the same food every day, the drinks were local brew and tasteless, the cliental were mainly unemployed people from Nottingham Council estates, entertainment was mediocre at best with no dress code for the evening, people would turn up straight from the beach stinking of sweat, beer and sand. Highlight of the evening was to get your Bra, knickers or false teeth to the compare, can you imagine that after a whole day of use!!!! Of course Valerie picked a time when the kids should be at school, what a joke we were run live with them and when questioned the answer was “It’s cheaper during School time”
Some say I am snob well so be it I holiday for my benefit not others, any way back to Turkey. After looking through the internet we decided to book a two bedroom apartment with a communal swimming pool, which we found clean spacious, air con and with good views, the swimming pool was not over crowded downside was the mosquito’s at night you will need plenty jungle cream, one invasion of ants and having to climb 77 steps but the pluses out weighed the minus. Kalkan itself was quite a nice small town with plenty of restaurants, small shops etc mind you like most tourists places you had to put up with touting from nearly everyone with the well oiled saying “Hello you remember me I remember you come and eat” Restaurants were clean, toilets very clean, waiters were very friendly have not made up my mind whether this is genuine or just a sales pitch. The food itself was OK but nothing special an the prices only a little cheaper then the UK for example 2 starters, 2 main meals consisting of grilled meat rice and salad plus 4 beers £45 some bars were offering small beer for 75p. A trip on a boat is a must, diving of a boat in the Med is great fun, but it is not for kids it lasts about 7 hours and you have a free meal which was home made and the best meal I had in Turkey but beware do not think the drinks are free you were continually asked if you would like a drink in a really nonchalant way, when you dock you are presented with the bill £30 in my case. It always the case the last couple of days of your holiday you find a nice little restaurant on your door step which was cheap and a good standard of food and drink, this was the case with Café Vita Kalamar Yolu. Two starters, two main courses, two Vodka Lemonade, two very large glasses red wine £27. There were lots of man made beaches and beach clubs and a beautiful beach where turtles come up at night, everywhere the water is crystal clear and warm.
I rather interesting custom has developed amongst Brits of a certain age is to dress in white on the last day to show of the tan, they only needed them to wear hoods and you would think the Klu Klux Klan has arrived, mind you I suppose I am jealous because it is asking for an accident if I wear light trousers
This was one of the best Holidays in the Sun I have had and came up to my expectations, I can recommend Kalkan Turkey to anyone in fact I have booked a 14 people villa for next year to celebrate my 60th and my 40th wedding anniversary ideal for a family holiday.

Wyatt 4 nights a week
Dear Editor
I have written several articles with regard to Derek Wyatt MP none have been published so can I ask through your paper the following questions as Mr Wyatt MP no longer responds to my emails or letters
1) Mr Wyatt had admitted to spending "four nights a week" in his "flat near Westminster". Parliamentary rules say that the accommodation in which an MP spends the majority of his time must be considered his "main" home, against which no allowances can be claimed. 4 nights out of 7 is a majority in anybody's book so why is he claiming expenses against his "main" home.
2) Mr Wyatt says that he "spends every Friday in the Sittingbourne & Sheppey area". This infers that he no longer actually lives in the constituency, and that is backed up by the fact that his name does not appear on the electoral register for Sittingbourne & Sheppey. If he does NOT live in the constituency, why does he continue to claim a second home allowance, since this was designed to help those MPs who had to maintain a home both in their constituency and London?
3) If Mr Wyatt does have another home, other than his London flat, where is it located and why will he not tell?
4) If Mr Wyatt no longer lives in the constituency why should the people of Sittingbourne & Sheppey vote for a man who no longer chooses to live amongst them?

The Rules are to be obeyed
The recent MP scandal over expenses and their excuse I was not doing anything wrong it was all in the rules, it seems bureaucrats can not help themselves when it comes to the rules.
Recently a company which collects discarded Cloths approached our Young Judo Club about having a 4ft x 4ft collection bin outside the Swale Martial Arts Club 20% of the proceeds was to go to air ambulance, the club was to receive a donation of £100 and we were helping recycling everyone was a winner. Well so we thought till we realised that we had to have planning permission and this was going to cost in access of £350 when I suggested to the council officials that this was bang out of order I got the reply “No! rules are there to be obeyed” common sense does not come into it. Obviously at that price the project was not financially viable but even though the Judo kids, the air ambulance and the business lose the rules have been obeyed. Mind you there was a little man with a silly moustache from Austria some 65 years ago had the same idea about Obeying ZA Rules.
