Millennials Lose Their Ethics



Millennials are very fond of telling everyone else about their "green credentials", and about how much they care for the environment.

However, once they get off their faces on booze and drugs (as happened during this weekend's Pride in Brighton) their environmental awareness and ethics vanish; and their hypocrisy and selfishness is displayed.

Australian Nanny Bans Smoking In Drug Dependence Injecting Centre



In Australia the state government injecting room regulations, released quietly on Tuesday night, will allow any drug of dependence, which includes ice, speed and other amphetamines. The irony being that those who use the injecting centre in North Richmond will be banned from smoking, as it is bad for their health!

#VazGate - Vazeline Broke The Law



Nanny and her chums are very fond of lecturing us on how we should behave, and what we are allowed/not allowed to put into our bodies (drugs, booze, fags, sugar, salt etc).

Yet, when it comes to Nanny and her chums, there is one law for us and another for Nanny.

Step forward Mr Vazeline, who believes that he is above the law!

Whilst the law wrt drugs is stupid, those who make the law cannot be above the law that they create!

Cheese As Addictive As Hard Drugs


Apparently, according to a study published in the Public Library of Science One, cheese contains a chemical found in addictive drugs

Using the Yale Food Addiction Scale, designed to measure a person’s dependence on, scientists found that cheese is particularly potent because it contains casein.

The substance, which is present in all dairy products, can trigger the brain’s opioid receptors which are linked to addiction.

Cheeses!

#CamilaGate - Would You Give £46M To a Clown Masquerading as a Charity Helping Kids?


Loyal readers know that I have written about Kids Company on several occasions. As such it should as no surprise to learn that the National Audit Office has found that Kids Company received at least £46M of public money, despite repeated concerns about how it was run.

Financial concerns were raised as far back as 2002, yet the government relied on the charity's own self-assessment to monitor its performance!

Would you give £46M to a clown masquerading as a charity helping kids?

What the fuck was going on there, and why did the government kowtow to this organisation and its clown?

Nanny Bans Pleasure


Nanny's best friend Theresa May has decided that we are all enjoying ourselves far too much, and wants to put a stop to it.

Her particular ire is targeted thusfar against so called "legal highs", which are chemical concoctions designed to produce similar effects to illegal substances.

Nanny has, over the past few years, been merrily banning these as soon as they hit the market. However, no sooner as one ban is put in place another variation on a substance is devised and sold perfectly legally.

Thus Nanny May is having no more of it and, despite there being no credible scientific research whatsoever about the dangers or otherwise of these substances, she has decided to push through a bill that bans them all (irrespective of whether they have been invented yet).

How can you ban something that has yet to be created?

Simples!

You ban ALL substances that are "psychoactive substances" (ones that give you pleasure, for want of a better word).

There is a wee problem with the proposed legislation.

It is in fact the worst piece of legislation (technically and ethically) ever drafted by any government in living memory.

For why?

Well did you know that tea, coffee, nuts, scented pillows etc all come under psychoactive substances?

Yes they do!

Thus there are (for the moment) exemptions eg alcohol (as long as it contains no other psychoactive substances), nicotine, tobacco and caffeine are “exempt substances”, as are medicinal products. However,  the bill appears to render the production of any new psychoactive drug for research purposes unlawful.

Additionally, butane gas, petrol, glue etc are not on the list of exemptions; despite the fact these are used by some people to get high.

Oh and the legality of efags (designed to weane you off real fags) is also questionable.

Thus the bill is pile of old shite!

I had expected this sort of bollocks from a coalition of Labour and the Scottish Nazi Party (had they won the election), but not from a Tory majority government with more pressing issues to focus on.

What the fark are May and her bill drafters on?

Stoptober

As Nanny launches yet another tiresome campaign aimed at encouraging us to drink and smoke less, it is with huge irony that the ONS have revised upwards Britain's GDP figures for 2013.

Why is that ironic?

Well, one of the reasons for the upward revision is the fact that (because of EU regulations) GDP must now include figures from illegal/semi illegal activities (eg drugs and prostitution).

The inclusion of these figures added (albeit by way of estimate) another £12.3BN to the British economy.

However, the real irony is that booze contributed only £11BN.

Thus proving the old adage, that the more that you try to ban something the more popular it becomes.

There's irony for you!

Don't Be Drunk On Duty!


I am gemused to see that Nanny has issued a mandatory 10 point ethical code of conduct for the police that, amongst other things, asks them to be polite to the public and not to swear at the public.

It is a sad state of affairs when something that I would have thought was second nature to those in the force has to be regulated by a code of conduct.

I would note that those of a criminal disposition and gits will doubtless try to make mischief of this code, by claiming that the arresting officers swore at them etc.

Anyhoo, in addition to not swearing, officers are also advised not to use drugs, turn up to work drunk or have sex whilst on duty.

Glad we sorted that out then!

Sunshine - The New Heroin


Seemingly, if research is to be believed, sunshine is addictive and has a similar effect on the body as heroin.

It would appear that ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun stimulate the production of endorphins, ''feel good'' hormones that act on the same biological pathway as opioid drugs.
Lead scientist Dr David Fisher, from Harvard Medical School in the US, is quoted by the Telegraph:
''This information might serve as a valuable means of educating people to curb excessive sun exposure in order to limit skin cancer risk as well as accelerated skin ageing that occurs with repeated sun exposure.
Our findings suggest that the decision to protect our skin or the skin of our children may require more of a conscious effort rather than a passive preference.''
As to whether this research (conducted on shaved mice) is valid or not, remains open to question. Dr Richard Weller, senior lecturer in dermatology at the University of Edinburgh, said: 
''Mice are nocturnal animals, covered in fur, which avoid the light, so one must be cautious about extrapolating from these experiments to man.
.......It is very unlikely that evolutionary pressures would select for a trait which reduces survival and reproductive 'fitness'. If an 'addiction' to sun truly also exists in mankind, it suggests to me that there is a benefit to it.
'The authors mention vitamin D, but in addition to this, epidemiological data (particularly from Scandinavia) show that increased sun exposure is associated with reduced all-cause mortality.

'Our recent work shows how sunlight reduces blood pressure independently of vitamin D, which may account for some of the health enhancing effects of sun.''
Quite!

That being said I guarantee that Nanny will misuse the results of this "research" and declare a war on sunshine (akin to her highly disastrous wars on terrorism and drugs).

Sugar - The Legal High



In May 2102 I noted that Nanny was fulminating about the dangers of sugar, and that it is as dangerous as drugs.

Well fast forward to September 2013, and we see that Nanny is again going on about sugar and calling it the "most addictive drug of all times".

Paul van der Velpen, the head of Amsterdam's health service, wants to see sugar tightly regulated.He is quoted by the Telegraph:
"Just like alcohol and tobacco, sugar is actually a drug. There is an important role for government. The use of sugar should be discouraged. And users should be made aware of the dangers.

This may seem exaggerated and far-fetched, but sugar is the most dangerous drug of the times and can still be easily acquired everywhere.
Sugar upsets that mechanism. Whoever uses sugar wants more and more, even when they are no longer hungry. Give someone eggs and he'll stop eating at any given time. Give him cookies and he eats on even though his stomach is painful.

Sugar is actually a form of addiction. It's just as hard to get rid of the urge for sweet foods as of smoking. Thereby diets only work temporarily. Addiction therapy is better.

Health insurers should have to finance addiction therapy for their obese clients. Schools would no longer be allowed to sell sweets and soft drinks. Producers of sports drinks that are bursting with sugar should be sued over misleading advertising and so on.
Well then!

Can someone please tell me how to get this cupcake out of my left nostril, that has become jammed there?

Chocolate - The New Drug


Not content with continuing her failed war on drugs, Nanny has now decreed that chocolate is equally verboten.

My thanks to a loyal reader who sent me this sorry tale of Holli McCann, an 11 year old schoolgirl, who committed the "heinous" crime of "smuggling" some chocolate with her on a school trip to the Isle of Wight with her fellow school chums from Bromet Primary in Watford on 1 July.

The following day, her mother was told to phone the school’s hotel urgently. The school told her that Holli was being sent home for eating confectionery and misbehaving on the beach the previous day.

Now there are two sides to every story, according to Spiked Holli’s account of events is that she had stayed up to have a midnight feast with the three friends she was sharing her room with. The contraband consisted of a Kit Kat, a Fudge bar and a Freddo.

Here's the good bit, wherein we discover how Nanny discovered the midnight feast.

Was Holli ratted out by a chum?

No!

Nanny read her letter home!!!

The following day, the pupils handed in letters they had written to be sent home. A teacher read Holli’s description of her minor nocturnal adventure and alerted headteacher Yvonne Graves, who then conducted a search of Holli’s room and suitcase, before deciding to send her home.

Holli’s mum is quoted:
"This was a search for chocolate, but was carried out in such a manner you would have thought they were running an international drug-smuggling operation from their hotel room."
Hertfordshire County Council gave Spiked a statement on the matter:
"Before the Year 6 trip to the Isle of Wight, parents and pupils were asked to sign a behaviour charter which clearly outlines how pupils should behave during the trip. This is to ensure that everyone can have a safe and enjoyable holiday. It was made clear that breaking any of the rules within the charter would result in parents being asked to take their child home, as was the case with this pupil."
Now as to what other "behaviour" issues there were wrt Holli is not stated, yet the primary reason for her being sent home is the eating of chocolate discovered after a private letter was read by a teacher.

What kind of example does this mail reading inflexible approach to petty rules set children?

Billy Bunter would most certainly not have approved!

Nanny Bans E



Oh dear it seems that Nanny has entered some sort of timewarp and reverted to the 1990's.

For why?

She has muddled up e-cigarettes (the popular and safe means of weaning oneself off fags) with the 1990's craze for E (a psychedelic drug).

Yes, Nanny Europe is threatening to ban e-fags, or rather classify them as a medicine, on the grounds that they might be harmful and that children will be lured into smoking by the sight of an adult looking like a complete wazzock "smoking" and posing with one of these things!

No self respecting child ever wants to emulate an adult who looks like a wazzock!

Nanny really needs to get out more.

Naughty naughty, very naughty....

Booze Matters - Daily Testing



My thanks to a loyal reader who pointed me to a pretty ghastly story about Nanny's desire to introduce daily alcohol testing (via a fingerprint scanner) at the workplace.

Nanny intends to start with public sector and security staff etc, then doubtless all and sundry will be targeted.

As anyone who has ever worked in the real world knows, half the workforce (especially in an office) turns up hungover each morning.

Once one has been found to be hungover in charge of the photocopier, what does Nanny (public sector or private sector) propose to do?

Sack you?

Such nonsense will require massive rewriting of employment contracts, and will turn the already dismal workplace into a soul destroying place of misery and drudgery.

The fact that technically the tests can be done done not mean that they should be done.

It is a terrible idea, and contrary to the basic tenet of a "grown up" society that an adult should be treated as an adult so long as he/she behaves in a responsible manner.

Nanny's Crass Stupidity


The Prison Governors' Association (PGA) have told Nanny that her policy on Class A drugs simply isn't working.

Nanny's response, via her Home Orifice, is particularly moronic even by her standards.

As per the BBC the Home Office said drugs were illegal "because they are dangerous".

Errmm.....alcohol, nicotine and caffeine are drugs and are dangerous, yet they are not illegal (not yet anyway).

The Joy of Caffeine


As loyal readers know, Nanny has numerous bees in numerous bonnets about food, drink and drugs.

She likes nothing more than to try to ban us from imbibing something that she defines as "dangerous". The reality being that, much like religious zealots, Nanny hates things that give people pleasure.

Like it or not human beings are genetically programmed to seek out things that give pleasure.

Why?

At a guess I would say that it is in order to maintain our sanity, and to divert us from realising that 70 years or so of living on a rotating sphere in an ever expanding universe that is 13 billion years old is all that there is.

Anyhoo, that aside, I see that Nanny recently got over excited about another dangerous drug; this one being caffeine.

Step forward Dr Jack James editor in chief of the Journal of Caffeine Research (there's a magazine devoted to caffeine? Good grief don't these people have lives?), who says says that the stimulant is causing ‘untimely deaths’ and that its 'lethality' is being underestimated.

Well I dare say that, like any other drug/food, if you overdose on it you will damage/kill yourself.

However, sensible people who have half a brain in their heads tend not to overdose on caffeine and manage to live their lives into a "happy/healthy" old age, where their only fear is being taken into care by Nanny.

Anyhoo, Dr James believes the risks caffeine poses to our health are so great that products that contain it should be taxed and restricted like cigarettes and alcohol. Sales to children in particular should be restricted.

Yawn.

The fact that it is found in all sorts of things, even cold remedies, is of particularly concern to him.

Well personally speaking I rarely drink coffee (only the occasional Irish coffee), therefore my caffeine intake is restricted to the coke that I mix with my vodka and the occasional cold remedy that I take.

That being said, I fail to see why yet another substance that the vast majority of people use without any ill effects should be treated as an illicit and dangerous threat to our well being.

Rather amusingly he also notes that caffeine is used as a cutting agent in illegal drugs.

Errmmm...so he wants to tax the legal drug in the illegal drug?

How's that going to work then??

Oh, and of particular amusement is the "research" that shows that caffeine increases the risk of having unprotected sex!

It's extremely simple, eat, drink, smoke, snort whatever you want; but in moderation. Those who overdo things will, by definition, cause harm to themselves; but sensible people know that already!

On The Couch With Nanny



I was gemused, but not particularly surprised, to read this article in Natural News which states that virtually every emotion we now have is classified by psychiatrists as a mental disorder.
"The industry of modern psychiatry has officially gone insane. Virtually every emotion experienced by a human being -- sadness, grief, anxiety, frustration, impatience, excitement -- is now being classified as a "mental disorder" demanding chemical treatment (with prescription medications, of course).

The new, upcoming DSM-5 "psychiatry bible," expected to be released in a few months, has transformed itself from a medical reference manual to a testament to the insanity of the industry itself.

"Mental disorders" named in the DSM-5 include "General Anxiety Disorder" or GAD for short. GAD can be diagnosed in a person who feels a little anxious doing something like, say, talking to a psychiatrist. Thus, the mere act of a psychiatrist engaging in the possibility of making a diagnoses causes the "symptoms" of that diagnoses to magically appear
."
The article goes on to quote Allen Frances who chaired the DSM-IV that was released in 1994. He now admits it was a huge mistake that has resulted in the mass over diagnosis of people who are actually quite normal. The DSM-IV:
"...inadvertently contributed to three false epidemics -- attention deficit disorder, autism and childhood bipolar disorder,"
Quite so!

How convenient for Nanny, and those companies contracted by her to produce little pills, that every emotion that we now have should be treated with a tablet.

Far better that we are drugged into a state of passive lethargy, rather than be driven by the creative and rebellious forces that lead to great works of art, scientific discovery and political/social revolution!

Van Gogh would have been drugged by Nanny into a state of non creativity.

Aldous Huxley foresaw such a society (its s people drugged by Soma) in"Brave New World".

In order to function and live life to the full as humans we have to experience emotions and moods, no matter how painful some of them are.

Stoptober Cometh



I see we are but days away from Nanny's "Stoptober" campaign to encourage smokers to quit smoking en masse for 28 days.

In theory, if Nanny is to believed, those who manage to stop for 28 days have a greater chance of breaking their "addiction" (Nanny's word) than those who don't.

I predict that whilst the usage of fags may diminish temporarily during the 28 day period, the consumption of other "Nanny disapproved" substance (eg booze, illegal drugs, sugar and chocolate) will increase.

Like it or not, the brain is programmed to seek pleasure; deprive it of one "vice", and it will look for a substitute.

In the meantime Nanny may care to consider what she will do do supplement her ever dwindling tax revenue, if she ever does succeed in weaning large numbers of people of her much hated "weed".

FYI, my granddad used to smoke a robust substance called "Diggers' Shag" (I dare say the name would be banned now); one day he simply decided to stop smoking (of his own free will, not because the state lectured him to stop), and did just that. He had a strong will, and never suffered from withdrawal symptoms.

He died in the early 1970's, not from the effects of smoking but from complications caused by the piece of shrapnel that was still in him from when his ship HMS Pegasus was sunk by the Konigsberg in 1914.

The Dangers of Alka Seltzer - What The Fark!



In 2007 I wrote about being refused Alka Seltzer in my own club, and wondered at the time why such a harmless substance is deemed to be so dangerous.

Well here we are some five years later, and the other day I received my home delivery of Sainsburys' groceries (the usual items; gallons of booze, some food, Alka Seltzer etc etc).

The bill, when it is presented, always identifies the "age restricted" items (ie booze and fags). Therefore imagine my surprise to observe this time, that Alka Seltzer is now classified as "age restricted".

What the fark!!??

I appreciate that some "over the counter" medicines, if overused by cretinous teenagers for "fun", can be dangerous. However, what on earth is the danger presented by Alka Seltzer and what on earth would a teenager want to do with it other than cure his/her hangover?
