A letter in this morning’s Telegraph from Richard Thorp (Director, High Speed Rail Group), insisted that the project should continue without any further delays, protests, squabbles or criticism from the general public and vested interests.

Quote “The reality is that HS2 has passed the point of no return. The debate now needs to be about making sure it delivers growth, as well as the urgent need to decarbonise transport. No more time and energy should be wasted on squabbling about whether a project deep into construction should be happening.”

He was very careful not to mention the escalating budget for this massive of white elephants – current estimates suggest anything between £140bn to £170bn and the clock is still ticking.

He also forgot to mention that the entire project would be underwritten by the government. And for government read Taxpayer. This means that the maintenance, repairs, future extensions & expansions etc will also be funded by the Taxpayer.

Which begs the question of where are the train operators in all of this?

As we saw with the privatisation of the railways back in the day, these operators waded in on the understanding that if they made a loss the Taxpayer will bail them out with subsidies. But when they were in profit the Taxpayer saw little or no dividend from it.

And so to with HS2. The Taxpayer pays for it, private operators take over on the same understanding that they will never end up in debt. No risk to them: shitloads of risk to the Taxpayer.

Moreover, as we saw during the 2 year pandemic vast numbers of former train commuters are now resorting to video conferencing either from their homes or offices. No more need to trek 200 miles on the train for a 1 hour business meeting.

And let’s not forget the power of the rail unions, who are currently making life extremely difficult for commuters with their strike action for more pay and better conditions – probably all funded by the Taxpayer.

Thorp is a deluded cunt, who cares little for the old concept of “value for money” for the hard pressed Taxpayer. All he wants is to see are nice profits, dividends and bonuses courtesy most likely from commuters and Taxpayers whether the latter use the trains or not.

As ever Admin my dismal IT skills prevent me providing a link but on my return from a splendid autumnal ride on my motorcycle I found Lady Guzzi laughing out loud at a story on the Apple News website.

Mark Lloyd CBE of the Local Government Association has banned a whole range of words which he finds to be inappropriate and unacceptable.’ Mum’ and ‘Dad’ feature in this list; the correct term is ‘Birthing Parent’.

One only has to think about this for a couple of seconds to realise that an adopted child will be stigmatised by their peers by being unable to use this term. Even worse will be the child who is a test tube baby due to the husband of his female birthing partner being infertile.

I would ask the more erudite members of IsAC to offer their solutions to this seemingly intractable situation.
(I’m sure the cunters could come up with some alternative interpretations of CBE – NA)

I sort of second this nom but far from me putting a dampener on a richly deserved cunting this middle class, massively over remunerated twerp actually hasn’t banned any words or phrases.

However the expert Non Job Shit Cunt has produced at I’m guessing massive expense a document which issues ‘advice’ to Councils on how the use of language in a dynamic society could leave the terminally offended, offended.

However this pencil necked no mark hand ringing nimby shit cunt deserves a cunting firstly for stealing my oxygen and secondly for being so self important that he has no shame or self awareness that he thinks can produce a ‘guide’ (which will become gospel) to tell the rest of us how to speak.

And without any hint of Irony.

There’s been many attempts at this type of ‘policy’, I think a chap called Adolf once tried it and that didn’t end well but it’s ok because he was a fascist.

Wilfred Emmanuel Jones – a black farmer ‘fighting to change the white face of agriculture’

Another ‘poor me’ self-pitying, race baiting piece of drivel, where it’s alleged that black people are somehow barred from living in the countryside.
His cuntery is adequately described in the article, enjoy.

A major cunting for the police. Well not the guys on the ground, but the chief cunts who decide and implement policy.

Apparently, to improve public relations the police are now going to be ‘told’ to attend every burglary.

Now, this is like a doctor being told they will have to try and ‘cure’ every patient- rather than letting a few just wither away by not bothering to see them, or a paramedic thinking ‘I can’t be arsed to go all over town at this time of night to help some cunt who’s been stabbed’

…and THEN announcing an ‘initiative’ whereby you inform your ‘customers’ you are going to start doing the job you used to do, and indeed a job that you should have been doing all along.

And we are supposed to fall for it. We are fucking idiots to have allowed it get to the point we should be impressed that the police should actually turn up to a crime scene.

A full-on cunting for this group of filthy unwashed, students and JSA middle class pultroons who are gluing themselves to roads, holding up traffic including fire engines and ambulances, and now, in addition to showing how childish they are, prove themselves to be a bunch of philistines, by damaging Van Goughs’s beautiful Sunflower painting:

It angers me that the police just watch them carring on like this – the protestors have been at it for two weeks now – comparatively few arrests. I doubt the scums benefits is stopped. If Khan hadn’t sold off those water canon Boris bought it could have all been wrapped up in a few days, as it is, they all ought to be rounded up stuck in cells and rmin there till they appear before stern magistrates who will jail them.

You beat me to it with this cunting.

Where to start with this bunch of bourgeois entitled cunts…… give me fucking strength…..they all look the same, dress the same, have the same incredibly punchable expressions, spout the same alarmist horse shit and share names akin to a fucking Lacrosse team. I can not begin to describe how badly I would lose my shit if these attention seeking hypocritical gobshites were to ever inconvenience me. These Cressidas, Farquars, Bluebells etc etc stir in me feelings of such ultra violence that even now I’m struggling to not go bat shit and mash up everything in my immediate vicinity.

The irony is completely fucking lost on them, these mostly privileged and privately educated pricks have enjoyed the most unsustainable lives yet now decide they want to deny every body else the chance to enjoy themselves. They suggested banning cheap short haul flights to save the planet!!!! Who the fuck do you think uses these shitty services mostly??? Its your binmen, tyre fitters, nurses, postmen etc etc ……. see a pattern emerging yet you cunts? Nope, didn’t think so. I’m alright pull the ladder up Jack

Whether its Just stop oil, Insulate Britain, XR or any other manifestation of misguided Marxist cunts hellbent on taking us back to year zero, I hate them all equally. The best thing they can do to save the planet is walk to the nearest biodigester and drown themselves in it. Utter cunts.
