As I touched on in my previous post with the election results in Mali
and Zimbabwe being released in Friday (2/8/13) we are now in a period in
which certain elements within the developed world were hoping those two
nations would be torn apart by violence and legal challenges in
response to those controversial election results. As such the US has
been making a great effort to make sure that Rihanna is front and centre
of everybody's attention with lots of earnest discussion over whether
Chris Brown's handlers will again intervene to force the couple to
reunite. The US' neighbour Canada has contributed to the general level
of confusion with an incident in which two young boys were killed by a
python snake in French speaking New Brunswick. Personally I think this
was an attempt by English speaking Canada to be seen participating in
the UK's efforts against Mali and Zimbabwe while reminding the US that
it is most probably time to let the Rihanna/Chris Brown operation come
to its natural conclusion.
As I also mentioned in my previous post being far more heavily invested
in Zimbabwe the UK has gone to an extra special effort to put pressure
on all parties by spreading confusion and tension. So it goes without
saying that Shrien Dewani will indeed to appealing against his
extradition to South Africa to the UK's Supreme Court. The UK's efforts
though have largely been built around a Channel 4 mini-series called
"Southcliffe." If I was writing a professional review of this program I
would say that it is incredibly well acted and deeply thought provoking.
That's because it is a much more polite way of saying it's a bit boring
really with the director choosing to largely disregard a plot in favour
of giving us lots of long, lingering shots in which the viewer can
ponder how the issues raised affect them in their own lives.
What little of a plot there is centres around a character called
"Stephen" who lives in the fictional small market town of Southcliffe
and one day decides to go on a shooting spree. The Stephen character
served in the British Army and applied to join the elite SAS but failed
selection. However he likes to tell people in his small town that he
served heroically with the SAS leading to his friends and neighbours
thinking he is a bit of a weirdo. Although it's not been officially
diagnosed it's heavily hinted that Stephen cares for his elderly mother
who has dementia. As such the Stephen character could equally be me or
my father. The "Anna" character is pretty obviously a less ginger
version of the Anna featured in the Bristol Abuse Case. Beyond that
there's a social worker, a pub landlord with a fondness for the band
Oasis, a serving soldier possibly suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress
Disorder, a TV news reporter with a troubled past, lots of police
officers and plenty of characters that people in the UK will be familiar
with in their everyday lives. Well I'm familiar with at least. As the
painfully pretentious series continues we will explore how societies
failings caused Stephen to go on his murderous rampage. Basically back
in 2006 the Communists at Channel 4 promised the UK Crown that they
would take control of me and deliver something by 2012. It's 2013 and
Channel 4 haven't delivered so it's time for them to examine their
failings.
In the meantime though the UK Crown were hoping that I would be
experiencing a long, hot summer under constant harassment from occupants
50 Beechwood Avenue and associates. They were hoping that the broadcast
of Southcliffe would make the stress all too much and something
dramatic would happen. Of course something dramatic has already happened
but it was far less dramatic than the Crown was hoping. As a result G4S
have tonight pulled out of their electronic tagging contract because
well before a UK Court can impose punishment such as electronic tagging
it first has to demonstrate that a criminal offence has been committed.
Showing remarkable resilience though following the unsuccessful
broadcast of the second of four episodes of Southcliffe last night
(5/8/13) the UK sprung back with a shooting incident at a farm in South
Lanarkshire, Scotland. This looks like a domestic incident but we were
all supposed to speculate whether the broadcast of Southcliffe played a
role in the incident. After all the UK were using to hope the power of
TV to trigger me into doing something dramatic. The fact that the farm
in question also has a horse riding stables attached was particularly
cunning because it brought in the incident in which a steward was
trampled by two police horses brought into to control a pitch invasion
following the League Cup 1st round match between Blackpool and Preston
North End. The match was obviously arranged to provoke a minor
disturbance in order to invoke discussion about about the recent July
12th rioting in Belfast, Northern Ireland. You see although in Northern
Ireland they take things much more seriously this type of disorder is
not uncommon on council housing estates across the UK mainland in
August. The football match was an attempt to keep the disorder within
controlled environment of a football stadium rather then a housing
estate. The horse incident seems to be an added bonus. What appears to
have happened is that the steward attempted to grab someone running onto
the pitch as the horses advanced. Being kind of thick one of the police
horses instinctively swerved to hit the person running on to the pitch
knocking the steward under the hoofs of the second horse. The question
of course is did the person running onto the pitch know that the horse
would react in that way?
The horse trampling also fed beautifully into the announcement about
dangerous dogs. 'Dangerous Dogs' is of course a long standing UK
codeword for young, mainly black gang members. Therefore the
announcement could have been a reference to the occupants of 50
Beechwood Avenue and associates. Also the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991 is a
perfect example of a poorly written law. However it is quite common for
the residents of council housing estates who sometimes engage in August
disorder to own and keep dangerous dogs which sometimes leads to some of
these dangerous dogs munching on the occasional child. Of course owners
affinity or lack there of with living things such as horses is often a
factor in these fatal dog attacks. Of course the horse trampling could
also be viewed as an attempt to encourage footballs fans to take an
interest in horse racing which in turn seems like a protest against
payday loan companies such as Wonga.
Also in the UK we've had the tragedy of a schoolgirl killing herself
after being bullied by Internet trolls on the site ask.fm. Apart from
the Communists seemingly never ending desire for the Internet and the
wider world being so heavily regulated that no-one can ever again point
out to them that they're idiots this also fed into the news that UK
Olympic gymnast Beth Tweddle has retired. You see with all her teeth I
wouldn't be surprised to learn that Beth Tweddle has been the victim of
Internet trolls at least once. Therefore an outsider might mistake this
for an attempt to invoke a highly complex argument from the 2012
Olympics. Tom Daley immediately springs to mind.
Finally there's been some nonsense about the government introducing news
laws to discourage NHS hospitals from killing their elderly patients.
This could obviously be interpreted as some highly important
announcement about my grandmother's case. Personally I think it was the
NHS' obsession with fighting tobacco smoking that ruined it all for
everyone.
Anyway got a headache yet?
