Tolerance Spoils Ill-minded People

A lesson from the past, seems as relevant now as it was then.

As per the Korea Times King Sejong of the Joseon Kingdom (1392-1910), who sat on the Korean throne for over 31 years from 1418 until his death in 1450, launched a crackdown against crime in the last three years of his reign, according to a recent study.

Cho Byung-in, a former senior research fellow at Korea Institute of Criminology in Seoul, said he discovered that 550 prisoners were executed during King Sejong's final three years. The figure is nearly four times the average number of criminals who faced execution during his previous 28 years.

The capital punishment figure reached its peak with 233 in 1448, the 30th year after Sejong ascended to the throne. Most of the criminals who faced execution were burglars.

"The high rate of capital punishment that came later in his tenure is associated with the shift of policy focus from tolerance to severe punishment."

Why this change?

It seems that the King's earlier policy of tolerance and minimal executions gave rise to an increase in criminal activity, eg the advent of "fire thieves" who carried torches whenever they attacked people and stole their wealth and belongings, terrifying the residents of the capital city Hanyang.

In other words if you give criminals an inch, they will steal a mile!

Alexa Licensed To Spy

The Sun discovered an English-speaking Amazon team in Bucharest, Romania, monitors thousands of Alexa recordings — and has heard private moments including family rows, money and health discussions — and couples having sex.

A 28-year-old female former analyst there said: “It’s been said that couples having sex and even what sounded like a sex attack have been heard by staff."

Basically anyone with an Alexa, Siri or similar device in their homes has consented (whether they know it or not) to having corporate spies listen to their daily activities. That is the very least of the issues of having one of these devices in your home.

Add in the risk of hacking and the state listening in, and you have basically installed a spy in your home. 

Ditch these devices now!

Nanny Hates Biscuits

Nanny's Chief Medical Officer, Dame Sally Davies, has claimed that women are eating 'two biscuits too much each day' and that we need to be 'honest' about weight.

Speaking on BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs she said: 

'I do think we have to be honest about it and not pretend people aren't overweight or obese.

What makes this happen is, on average, women eat one or two biscuits too much each day. 

So we need people to think about [eating] a little less every day so that they're stable and [eating] a little less than that every day to steadily drop [their weight]'.

This means that Nanny thinks that it's okay for men to eat as many biscuits as they wish.

It is clear that our eating, drinking and smoking habits won't kill us; we will die of misery instead!

Who Smokes?

Maybe Nanny should realise that smoking is relaxing. 

Hence, the more stressed or crappy someone's life is the more likely they are to continue smoking (irrespective of Nanny's lectures).

The solution?

Make everyone Middle Class, and they will migrate from fags to daily wine and spirit drinking!

Nanny Wants Your Views About Tobacco Legislation

Nanny sent me this by email:

Have your say on the impact of tobacco legislation  

Dear Reader

Smoking remains the biggest cause of death and disability in England. Over recent years a range of legislation has been introduced to discourage young people from taking up smoking, encourage existing smokers to quit and to protect others from the harmful effects of cigarette smoke. This has included a ban on display of tobacco in shops, increase in the age of sale of nicotine-inhaling products and a ban on smoking in cars with children. 

The government is reviewing the legislation above which came into force between 2010-2016 and as a result we'd like to hear your views. 

Post Implementation Review of Tobacco Legislation

Consultation closes on

Sunday 15 September at 11:59pm.

Draw Your Curtains - Warm Weather Coming

In response to the possibility of a couple of days of warm weather (in the summer, who knew?), Nanny's chums in Public Health England (PHE) have issued a level-2 ‘alert and readiness’ warning with older people urged to close their curtains (are we expecting and air raid?) and avoid going outside during the hottest part of the day.

Netweather charts show high humidity could make temperatures 'feel like' 111F (44C) before the end of the week.

Well then, I will not bother closing the curtains but I will drink more lager!

Nanny To Ban New Drivers From Driving at Night

Those of you who though that the departure of Nanny in Chief May would mean the end of Nanny nonsense are in for a shock.

It seems that her busybody tendencies will live on, as she intends to ban new drivers from driving at night.

Plans for a graduated licence system to restrict novice drivers in England, Scotland and Wales were announced by the Department for Transport (DfT).

How exactly this will be enforced springs to mind?

I would also note that people drive at night not just for jolly, but because they have to eg go to or come back from work.

Exactly why should these people be banned from driving?

Also, what happens in winter when it gets dark around 4PM?

A bloody stupid idea!

The Telegraph Doubles Down On Stupidity

Two of England's Cricket champions were forced to walk away from the champagne celebrations because they are Muslim and therefore choose not to drink. But in a multicultural Britain should this be happening? And are champagne celebrations outdated in multicultural Britain? pic.twitter.com/aD1anCZsSI

— The Telegraph (@Telegraph) July 16, 2019

Here's why the Telegraph is talking bollocks:

1 No one forced anyone to drink the champagne.

2 People are entitled to choose what they wish to drink/eat or not drink/eat.

3 The players who walked away, walked away as adults with dignity, good grace and without complaint.

4 Imposing blanket bans on drinks/food because a number of people cannot or will not eat/drink them is absurd, as it will lead to all types of food and drink being banned (eg those with allergies, vegans and the fastidious will have to be accommodated).

All in all the Telegraph's article is insulting, ignorant and divisive!

Brighton Gets Things Arse About Face - 'Elf and Safety Strikes Again

In Brighton, seemingly, things are built before checking the health and safety requirements.

The lovely Queens Park has had a wooden jetty built by the side of the pond. The project started at the end of March this year, and was meant to be completed within five weeks.

Fast forward to today's date (mid July) and, as you can see, the project remains unfinished and boarded off. Completion expected end of August!

For why?

It seems that health and safety concerns have been raised by the Royal Society for The Prevention of Accidents, eg the need for child proof gate etc.

The need for gates etc may be all very well and necessary in this risk averse age (no doubt). However, to my simple mind, should these issues not have been raised during the design phase?

Nanny Wants To Put Us All To Sleep

Not content with telling us what to eat, smoke and drink, Nanny has now decided to tell us how to sleep and how long we should sleep!

The Guardian reports that a leaked draft of a public health green paper, due to be published by Nanny's health secretary, Matt Hancock, says that Nanny will review the evidence on sleep and health.

It suggests the minimum amount will vary depending on how old someone is, and the paper will give advice on “sleep hygiene”, according to the Times, which obtained the document.

It was reported the guidance was likely to state regularly getting less than seven hours’ sleep a night could damage most people’s health.

The leaked draft says:

“This is with a view to informing the case for clear national guidance on the daily recommended hours of sleep for individuals in different age brackets, and to raise awareness of the key ‘sleep hygiene’ factors that can support healthy sleeping.”

As with all of Nanny's busybody interventions, she tries to justify this by saying it will save the NHS money.

The fact is if we all dropped dead now, the NHS would also save lots of money!

Fruit Juices Cause Cancer...Except They Don't!

In a veritable media splurge, lead by the Mail, hapless fruit juice drinkers (remember folks fruit juice is part of Nanny's Five a Day!) have been confronted with lurid headlines telling them that fruit juice will give them cancer.

All very frightening and worrisome, until that is you bother to check what the actual risk of getting caner is..according to the BMJ it is 1.12%!

Nanny and her lickspittles in the media do themselves no favours by this nonsensical and idiotic scaremongering!

Health and Safety Advice - Avoid Imelda Marcos's Birthday Parties

As loyal readers know, I am not normally a fan of  'elf and safety. However, in this particular case I will don my Nanny pince nez and urge you to avoid going to any future birthday parties hosted by Imelda Marcos.

For why?

As per Stuff:

"More than 240 people were brought to hospitals in the Philippine capital Manila Wednesday with suspected food poisoning in an event celebrating the 90th birthday of former first lady Imelda Marcos.

Bryant Wong, a disaster-response officer, said dozens of ambulances transported at least 244 people who either vomited or grew dizzy hours after eating a breakfast of chicken stew with egg and rice and drinking water in a sports centre in suburban Pasig city."

Sugar Sugar!

It seems that Nanny's obsession with people's alleged increased sugar consumption is somewhat misplaced.

The above figures show that sugar consumption has, in fact, been declining over the years (long before the absurd and irrelevant sugar tax was imposed).

Now then, given that Nanny still tells us we are fat pigs she will have to find other things to blame...

Coming soon....

THE FAT TAX!

Boris To Abolish Sin Taxes and Curb The Nanny State?

I see that Boris, if he becomes PM, will abolish sin taxes and curb the excesses of the Nanny state.

Now whether or not that actually happens, given that he will have an uphill battle weeding out Nanny's many minions in state funded quangos and the civil service, I am still more than delighted to see that this has annoyed Nanny May's minions!

Number 10 surprisingly not happy at Boris' bashing of the sin taxes. "Rhetoric isn't reality" one No 10 source fumed to me last night. Sour grapes? 🍇🍇🍇
