I am sorry but I have had enough of these greenie tree hugger yoghurt eating hippies calling for police brutality at the G20 the other day.

Sure, there is evidence of the police going over the top and some of them will be suspended and possibly sacked but I would just love it if the people that were protesting were burgled today and a police officer could not come round because they were suspended – could you imagine the amount of shit the police would receive for that???

Look at other countries who have hosted G8 of G20 conferences, and look at how their police have sorted out the protesters? We let these bunch of ‘un-washed tree huggers’ get away with breaking the law and when the police react to severe provocation the media demonise the most tolerant police force in the world.

Shame on the media and shame on the hippies who need to get a job, a life and some soap! You are willing to hug a Polar Bear or a tree but you would gladly hurt a British police officer just for doing his job. You make me sick!

It seems these days that the English identity is being eroded. We have to be British first and English second, whereas the Welsh or Scots (quite rightly so) are Welsh or Scottish first and British second.
As an example Tim Henman is British, but Andy Murray is Scottish, and I don’t have a problem with this, but Tim Henman was never referred to as English, always British.

Perhaps a little poem might explain it a bit better:-

OUR ENGLAND

Goodbye my England, so long old friend
Your days are numbered, being brought to an end.
To be Scottish or Irish or Welsh that’s just fine,
But don’t say you’re English that’s way out of line!

The French and the Germans may call themselves such,
As may the Norwegians, the Swedes and the Dutch.
You can say you are Russian or maybe a Dane,
But don’t say you are English ever again.

At Broadcasting House that word is taboo,
In Brussels they’ve scrapped it, in Parliament too.
Even schools are affected, staff do as they’re told,
They mustn’t teach children about the England of old.

Writers like Shakespeare, Milton or Shaw,
Do pupils not learn about them no more?
How about Agincourt, Hastings or Mons?
Where England lost hosts of her very brave sons.

We’re not Europeans, how can we be?
Europe is miles away, over the sea!
We’re English from England let’s all be proud.
Stand up and be counted, shout it out loud!

Let’s tell Gordon and Brussels too.
We’re proud of our heritage, not just red, white and blue.
Fly the flag of St. George, not the Union Jack!
Let the World know ENGLAND is back!

I personally thought for most of the game against the Aussies, last week,  we were the better team. The difference is that they knew how to score. They knew how to pass, catch and run all at the same time – something that I can only presume must be cheating. We concentrated so much on the battle of the front rows that we forgot about the other 12 players.

Then came the South Africans. I watched the first half at home and then needed to watch the second half in the pub. Everyone in the pub and everyone in the media seem to be of the opinion that Cipriani is the future and Martin Johnson and England just need time.

Unfortunately where Martin Johnson is concerned people are making so many excuses to give him a chance, they are missing the overall picture. The England performance was not about 15 (+reserves) players playing crap, it was about 15 decent players with dreadful tactics. Every ruck – guess what? The ball would be passed to one of two forwards hanging off to the side, the other 6 forwards were in the ruck winning the ball from the one South African who had made the tackle, the result is that you had a huge green defensive line to break through. The media are praising the Sprinkbok defence but to be honest we have no idea how good it is because it was never tested.

If you had a chance to watch the Rugby League World Cup final in the morning you would have seen a group of players passing the ball in front of another player thus allowing them to run onto the ball at pace. Why is this simple and obvious tactic reserved for Rugby League and Rugby Union at schoolboy level (in England). Danny Cipriani might develop into a stand off, but the position requires you to control your backs and get them moving at pace. It also requires some tactical kicking ability. Danny fails at both of the basic attributes of a stand off. Yes, he has flare. Yes, he has potential. Yes, he can make nice breaks once in a while (and yes he has got a good looking girlfriend), but he is an inside center at best and not a no.10.

One last point. We have one player who would walk into any other team in the world and he starts on the bench for England. Matt Stevens is probably one of the best ‘ball carrying’ props in the world and he starts on the bench. Go figure.

Last week Zoom, the discount airline, went bust. They blamed high oil costs and the credit crunch. They didn’t, of course, blame the fact that they were so desperate to undercut the ‘big boys’ that the prices they charged their customers were simply not enough to cover their costs. I may be doing their management a great injustice, but isn’t it nice to have the ‘credit crunch’ to blame.
‘In debt, it’s the credit crunch’. It’s not because you have spent £1000’s more than have been paid, and chucked it all on your credit card at 2000% interest.
‘Alastair Darling is an arse’. Oh, hang on, he’s not – it’s just the credit crunch!
‘Chelsea failed to beat Tottenham’. It’s that bloody credit crunch.
‘My house has devalued by 10% in the last year meaning I have only made a 200% profit in 12 years’ Bloody credit crunch!!!
‘I am fat, my children are misbehaving and kids are being stabbed in the streets’. Guess what, it’s that dam crunch thing again.
Everywhere you look in Britain today the ‘blame game’ is going on.
The best one to come up recently is that, apparently scientists have found a gene that is passed on by your obese parents, which means that you too will be fat. It has nothing to do with your addiction to lard kebabs with extra lard sauce and your complete lack of exercise. It’s the fault of nature.
You’re out of work – it’s the crappy governments fault, not yours.
No one ever takes responsibility for themselves or their mistakes it always the fault of someone else, and if this continues we will never learn and if we never learn we will never better ourselves.
By the way if you disagree with any of this – don’t blame me!
