Mourning Monday

Posted by ffruk on February 9, 2009

Have a busy day today too much to do … but before i can get on with this – i have to clear my heart of the crap that’s annoying it … Todays news has primarily been about 3 things so far  :

1) Bank Leaders pay themselved huge bonuses, despite having had huge government bailouts –

bankers

Comments :

Banks are infuriating.  they rip us off , charge us hugely, turn a country and and its governments on their knees – bring to a standstill the borrowing facilities to a generation of people who have been nurtured to borrow borrow on the never never – cause huge losses as we have been told and told over and over again over the past 6 months – and what for all this – bank leaders pat themselves on the back and give themselves disgusting bonuses.

This is day light robbery.  The banks appear to be well over and beyond the law – they do what they like with no re-percussion of their actions and it appears our government justlays down and takes it -

Now i am no expert – just a day to day person and though my understanding may be simplified the whole think stinks of corrupt exploitation and greed.

With great power comes great responsibility – and these people are lookign afetr themselves.

Its our children that will pay the price they say .. why the f*** should they – when these people are allowed to run riot and fatten there own pockets for a job badly done.

How can we call this justice & how can the good law be upheld when it appears to be corrupt at the core of business leaders. Disgusting – and shame on you *ankers!!

2) Charity shops are booming in trade as credit crunch Britains storm the charity shops to hunt for bargains to ease there shopaholic addiction

Comment

Funny enough i went to the charity shops yesterday – i have often in the past enjoyed these places to get clothes that i can alter for myself – these days i find nothing that inspires.  really fuddy duddy basics – and very over priced some of it – not sure why this is – but thats what my local ones have turned out like – mayeb thre are some better ones about

But trade is so booming that they are running out of clothes. The news reader spoke to a spokeman at oxfam who said that ‘every person in the uk has at least 6 items of clothes that they do not wear – and if they all gave this to the charity this would transalte into huge profits and billions were mentioned

This riled me – This is coming from a charity that i hear had millions invested in the failed  icelandic bank – why the hell have these *ucking people got money to invest ????? what? have they saved all the poor people in the world and they have money spare to invest ????? YOUR Money that us good people give you should be invested in people not in *ucking banks !!!!! GRRRRR  ..

The sick irony is that us poor caring individuals will do what we can to help out because we do care – despite having our own woes.  Maybe this year the bankers should give thier so called bonuses to charities …

3) Last but more devasting – 30 Fires across Australia ruin towns to cinders – they say at least  two of these fires were caused by arsonists.

Australia Wildfires

Comments :

What can i say – hugely sad beyond words.  Our hearts go out to all that are having to face these horrid nightmare atrocities put down largely to climate change.  The question has to be asked – is this is the shape of things to come ? seeing hell on earth visualised in our corners of our lands . … The news majors on the fact they they think whoever started the fires are ‘mass murderers’ – well – at least two of them – but what about the rest ? … here the facts on Reuters http://www.reuters.com/article/latestCrisis/idUSSP292660

 

All i can say people is this – Love is the Law – if we can operate all our actions and decisions for the future in Love then we may have a hope in getting through all this .. maybe its time for all  to lay down thier weapons – get heads to gether to see how we can start again .. somehow i hope we are big enough, intelligent enough to do so … ?  : /

‘Victory can be ours – let love bring down guns!’

‘Victory Can be ours – let love overcome!’
