Prejudiced towards the Posh

 

This doesn't mean I hate Peterborough Utd although as a lifelong Wrexham fan I was not over fond of Alex Ferguson's son as our Captain. There was something arrogant and self centered about him. There was something "Posh" about him and here he is in his second spell as manager of Peterborough Utd.

No I am prejudiced towards people whose accents give away the fact that they were born into privilege here in the UK. The accent is mostly upper crust English, Jacob Rees-Mogg, Iain Duncan Smith, Sara Montague aka Lady Brooke on Radio 4's the World at One. 

The voice that really grinds my gears is Justin Webb's on Radio 4's Today programme. Like Marti Webb singing "Take that look off your face" in Tell me on a Sunday I want to shout out "Take that plum out of your mouth" on a Monday morning.

      

The posh can be found at this time of year at Wimbledon and Lord's cricket ground. The bastions of Upper Class consciousness in England. I will obviously be accused  by people who support the IDF of the 'politics of envy'

Where did all the Hooray Henrys of the early 1990's go? Where are all the ancient and decrepid Sloane Rangers? Living in a stately pile outside of London or in a penthouse suite in Marylebone.

David Cameron and Boris Johnson, the bullies of the Bullingdon Club, were our most recent examples of Posh Boys gone right to the top. Walking through the underground tunnel from Eton to Westminster via Windsor Castle.

Don't judge a person  by their accent? I disagree. Richard Tice, Nigel Farage, Rupert Lowe, Isabel Oakeshott should all be in the Tower of London for the way that they speak. All Public School educated with degrees in condescension. Some of these poshos get so off on condescension that their spaffing it up the wall like Bozo the clown on a bad/good day.  

Theresa May had a posh voice, Liz Truss didn't but she tried. As an old Wykehamist Rishi Sunak toned down the posh boy voice but my god head girl Kemi Badenoch is giving it her damndest at Prime Minister's Question Time.

I always knew she was going to get the Leadership purely by the way that she spoke. Have a go hero on the London Underground Robert Jenrick didn't stand a chance against the cut glass of Badenoch but he too is getting posher in voice "Did you pay for your ticket?" "Have you paid?"

In UK PLC we are taking part in "My Fair Lady" on a loop. Those not old enough to be familiar with the musical film based on the stage play Pygmalion by George Bernard Shaw only have to put the following into ChatGPT or Google AI 

"Is My Fair Lady about Class Consciousness?" 

The posh boys and girls will come around again, if not in the guise of the Tories, they will come in the disguise of Reform UK pretending to be of the working people while squirreling their parliamentary gotten gains into Dubai or an off shore tax haven. 

The posh are taught to be devious. They are taught to play on their haughtiness and their accent. "It will stun the lesser classes" they are told and we the inferior people of the UK put up with them as if they were some harmless, circus freak show rather than the sinister British establishment that they are.

They will protect their money and wealth at your expense and they will do it in accents like Jacob Rees-Mogg and Boris Johnson and we will continue to do nothing because you cannot be prejudiced towards the posh. Well I am!

diwedd y gân yw’r geiniog

 

diwedd y gân yw’r geiniog

A sweary anti-capitalist poem in Wenglish

 

Being out in ‘masnach’ does my f*****g head in!

“diwedd y gân yw’r geiniog”

Well f**k the song and f**k the penny

I was imprisoned for using threatening language in a bank

“Give me my money or I will explode a bomb”

and then I opened my shirt like a flasher.

That was enough to get me 114 days on remand

in one of Amsterdam’s toughest prisons

90 days for them to investigate and 24 on top for good luck

That was 20 years ago and I am still bitter.

I haven’t worked since.

Anti-Capitalists should be given medals not jail sentences.

It’s time for a new system

This one has killed so many

Jesus was tipping over the tables of the money lenders way back when

He didn’t do it once, he did it four times or so the gospels do say

and he did it in Welsh translation

a language much older than English

and Nigel Farage of Reform UK waves his hand and says

“Encourage the language by all means”

Well here goes then

 

Matthew 21:12-13

Aeth Iesu i mewn i gwrt y deml a gyrru allan bawb oedd yn prynu a gwerthu yn y farchnad yno. Gafaelodd ym myrddau'r rhai oedd yn cyfnewid arian a'u troi drosodd, a hefyd meinciau y rhai oedd yn gwerthu colomennod. 

 

Mark 11:15-19

Pan gyrhaeddodd Iesu Jerwsalem, aeth i gwrt y deml a dechrau gyrru allan bawb oedd yn prynu a gwerthu yn y farchnad yno. Gafaelodd ym myrddau'r rhai oedd yn cyfnewid arian a'u troi drosodd, a hefyd meinciau y rhai oedd yn gwerthu colomennod. Yna gwrthododd adael i unrhyw un gario pethau i'w gwerthu i mewn i'r deml.  Yna dechreuodd eu dysgu, “Onid ydy'r ysgrifau sanctaidd yn dweud:

‘Bydd fy nhŷ i yn cael ei alw

yn dŷ gweddi i'r holl genhedloedd.’?

Ond dych chi wedi troi'r lle yn ‘guddfan i ladron’

 

Luke 19:45-48

Aeth i mewn i gwrt y deml a dechrau gyrru allan bawb oedd yn gwerthu yno.  Meddai wrthyn nhw, “Mae'r ysgrifau sanctaidd yn dweud, ‘Bydd fy nhŷ i yn cael ei alw yn dŷ gweddi’; ond dych chi wedi troi'r lle yn ‘guddfan i ladron’!”

 

John 2:13-16

Roedd yn amser Gŵyl y Pasg (un o wyliau'r Iddewon), a dyma Iesu'n mynd i Jerwsalem. Yng nghwrt y deml gwelodd bobl yn gwerthu ychen, defaid a cholomennod, ac eraill yn eistedd wrth fyrddau yn cyfnewid arian. Felly gwnaeth chwip o reffynnau, a'u gyrru nhw i gyd allan o'r deml gyda'r defaid a'r ychen. Chwalodd holl arian y rhai oedd yn cyfnewid arian, a throi eu byrddau drosodd.  Yna meddai wrth y rhai oedd yn gwerthu colomennod, “Ewch â'r rhain allan o ma! Stopiwch droi tŷ fy Nhad i yn farchnad!”

Dour old sourpuss

Dour old Sourpuss

 

Dour old sourpuss

Sour old dour puss

I met you at the bus stop

God I can talk

and so can you

but I do to fill the silences

to quieten the thoughts.

You said that I annoyed you

You wouldn’t explain why

You thought that I was a soft touch

Somebody with porous boundaries

“I’ll help you do that”

“I’ll help you do this”

I realised what I was doing and withdrew

and that threw you.

You thought that you would benefit

from a man like me

but thank God I managed to see     

and then to flee.

Now the occasional contact

to ascertain whether I can be leant on,

but I can’t

and I realise that you are

a dour old sourpuss.

Hey former old friend!

Thanks for contacting me out of the blue!

You've heard that I live in a pretty part of the world?

From who?

You thought that you would just like to drop on by?

How many years has it been?

I've changed, I'm not the same as I was.

I discovered something called boundaries

You knew I didn't have any and took full advantage

I hated myself and you didn't help me

You assisted me to despise myself more

You've gone awful quiet?

I would ask how you are but I really don't care.

Still smoking? They call it vaping now, oh and you're doing lots of it.

I've got room but I don't want you to stay because it's going to be an effort

and I just don't do that anymore.

So listen! thanks for calling

but I'm not a Convenience Store.

Militant Military

 

I have my reasons for despising the British Military but I'm not going into those in this blog post suffice for you to know that I am a woke leftist who is concerned about the UK's even further lurch to the right.

Why do veterans and ex military march for Tommy Robinson? Is it because in the words of Dad's Army's Corporal Jones that they were fighting the 'Fuzzywuzzies' overseas and they've come back to this country and realised that the very same have taken over and "WE WANT ARE COUNTRY BACK"

Wasn't it Anthony Blair who had the mantra "Education, Education, Education"? Well he failed.

The sight of Army & Royal Navy Recruitment in the roughest schools in Britain is modern day press-ganging. "You'll get no qualifications sonny, sign on the dotted line, travel the world, meet people and kill them"

We know that war is a business. It is used by failing economies to pump start such by producing armaments and submarines. Sir Keir Rodney Starmer is robbing Peter to pay Paul. He's swooped on the Department of Work and Pensions and with the help of Liz Kendall he has plundered the Benefits Bill and pumped the savings into the Defence budget. They are taking from the most vulnerable to give to the most ignorant and uneducated to kill people in the name of the Monarchy and the Upper Class in the Dis-United Kingdom.  

We saw this last Bank Holiday Monday how the right wing media, legacy media and MSM tried to humanise the Liverpool ram raider when they found out that he was an ex Royal Marine (Commando), a very nice man, father of three who lived in a cul-de-sac. He was very lucky that he didn't kill anybody that day but how do we know that he hasn't killed before? In the line of duty.

We're getting whispers out of Afghanistan that the British Military were killing civilians. The army that lacked a clear strategy have been investigated with court-martials and other disciplinary actions.

My question in this blog is why are we required to 'Help our Heroes'? Surely it's more important to vet them first, to make sure that they have not committed any war crimes. The British Government and British Military are currently taking part in one of the greatest war crimes in living history. The Israeli Genocide of Palestine. The Israeli Lobby are holding David Lammy and Keir Starmer in either hand and have their own army of thuggees ready to brand anybody who whispers 'Free Palestine' in a dark room, as anti-semitic. 

We are back to 'Reds under the Beds'. The vilification of Putin and his incursion into Ukraine has now morphed into "Captain Britain vs the Red Menace". The spectre of Communism and freedom and equality and social justice is one which has haunted England since the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. England is forunate that if there is a rumble with a foreign power then they can call on their flying monkeys namely Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland to muck in with the dirty work.

There are so many unemployed and Keir Rodney Starmer is obsessed with NEETS, not in employment, education and training that it wouldn't surprise this blogger that he and his Labour administration re-introduces 'National Service' and if 'we' do go to war get ready for rationing because the plentiful and expensive stocks in our supermarkets will soon dry up with a global conflict so in the best spirit of the Covid-19 lockdown "You'd best stockpile your toilet rolls now"
