Corruption in Public Places

At least 1,000 prison staff are corrupt, and more than 500 are in "inappropriate relationships" with prisoners, according to a leaked study.

Claims John Prescott could have broken anti-corruption laws by staying on US billionaire Philip Anschutz's ranch are being examined by Scotland Yard.

The Home Office is to review every asylum case which involved an employee accused by a newspaper of helping people remain in the UK for cash.

The immigration system is "shot through with incompetence and corruption" and should face a full independent inquiry, says Conservative Damian Green.

Just some of the news items found today, now I’m sure that there will be many investigations (whitewash's) which will drag out for many months and cost a fortune. But in the end it will be like a train or bus crash. We will only hear further about it if there is a little/small/unimportant person they can blame. Never do our Lords and Masters take the blame for what is after all their incompetence.

As a society we expect those in positions of authority and influence to act with integrity, or at least we hope that they will. However, in the mid-1990s there was a explosion in the amount of criticism of MPs for alleged `sleazy' behavior. Most of the complaints centered on MPs accepting remuneration for attempting to influence the Commons in ways that were of benefit to their secret paymasters, and not to their constituents as decency dictates.

This is the text of the Corruption Bill, as ordered by the House of Commons to be printed on 23rd May 2006.

Go on have a laugh, read it and see over the next year how our government obeys its own rules.

I Am Ready Mr Prescott

by Pam Ayres (allegedly).

I am ready Mr Prescott,

You can take me in your arms

All these years I’ve waited,

To experience your charms,

So fling aside those trousers,

I hope they’re quick release,

For all that hanky panky’s

Made you clinically obese.

I like a man of substance,

I like a man of size,

Especially when I’m measuring

The bags beneath their eyes.

If anyone insulted me

I have no doubt at all

You’d leap to my defence

And punch the blighter through the wall.

I like you Mr Prescott,

A constant watch I keep

To see you on TV

Sat next to Tony, fast asleep.

So I’m waiting Mr Prescott

My toothbrush in my bag,

To see your chiselled jaw

Behind the wheel of either Jag.

A man like you is dangerous

A man like you is trouble

Just like a row of houses

You demolish me to rubble

With one hand on the tiller

As steady as a rock

And the other disappearing

Up the secretary’s frock.

Freedom, what freedom

Wow now you can go to prision for making babies!

The Child Support Agency (CSA) is being axed, while
absent parents face being electronically tagged, under plans to be
announced by the government.

The British National Health Service, the same treatment for all. Sounds good but whats the reality?

Pressure for surgery to treat obesity is so high that
in some areas NHS lists are being closed to all but the most serious
cases.

To little, to late even here in Cornwall.

A hospital which was criticised in a report for "widespread institutional abuse" of patients is to close.


The way of things to come in our free socity, after all we do not live in a NANNY STATE.

Smokers lighting up at work, a pub or cafe could face
on-the-spot £50 fines from next summer, under rules for the smoking ban
in public places in Wales.


Soon I think we will be fined for not using the correct colour toilet paper. All for the glorifacation of Telon Tonys balmy cronies. But we do not live in a NANNY STATE.


An office worker says he will not pay a £75 fine for dropping a cigarette end in Llanelli town centre.

Now I could go on like this for hours, days even. But unlike the morrons who are running this country I have a life (at the moment until some faceless prat tries to introduce a rule to stop me brathing).

I think the finial word should rest with Teflon.

Debates over possible bans on smoking and smacking have raised the inevitable arguments about a nanny state

It is a charge more regularly aimed at Labour governments and - as with
so many other "Old Labour" tags - is one Tony Blair is eager to avoid.

Remember you can fool all of the people some of the time or some of the people all of the time but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.
