Shame on all of us British people comes once more. Oh, dear, it's been a long time since I remembered just how shite the politics of the UK are, but this past week or so I've had some stark reminders.
Yes, just the other week Tony B showed his smug and infinitely kickable face in KL, as part of some Commonwealth summit or summert and I got the rancid greasy feeling once more, oh if only I had a high powered Sniper rifle I'd have hunted the shit down good and proper. Anyway I have been slightly cheered up by the fact that the Malaysian bloggers have been on a serious Tony B bashing session, which cheered me up no end - yes a lot of people hate him here, because he's a murderer like wot I've been saying for years, and so I have been able to plough on and join in the bastard bashing sessions and haven't had Dad there to tell me that I'm a silly reactionary. Aaaah, it was almost like the good old days of Tony hating all over again.
Then to top off the arrival of el dictat the UK has gone and allowed the corrupt bastard Thaksin to seek asylum in the UK, AGAIN!!!!! But the bastard super corrupt facist mother was suppose to be going on trail for being a super-corrupt non-tax paying facist dictator bastard this week, and his wife just got charged with non-payment of $15million USD in taxes and sentenced to 3 years in the nick, and her brother, and Thaksin was due up in the next week or so. Then somehow (ie: via corruption) they managed to secure a weekends pasage to China to watch the Olympics (oh yes, even if you are on trial, if you got money in Asia you can do whatever you like lah) so then the pair of corrupt shits went and absconded to the sunny UK and got put up, presumably as political asylum seekers.
Now, whilst I do agree with political asylum if you are being persecuted or your life is threatened, I have a bit of trouble seeing it being granted to a massively big time gangster lawbreaker who owes tens of millions of dollars in unpaid taxes after robbing a nation blind for years and gaining the revenues that you didn't pay taxes on from the taxpayers revenues in the first place.
So there we are, by allowing the prick and his family of sinners to reside on British soil, we are not serving justice or values of freedom, we are merely allowing Britons international reputation to sink further and further down the pan. The Thais seem to think that they can extradite the bloke and his gangster family. But, well, if we were to do that then we would have to make sure that the Thais promise to release all of the young British boys and girls who got duped into being drug-mules and are presently rotting away in the Bangkok Hilton.
Maybe, if they were to use the imprisoned Britons as bargaining chips, and make sure that they are all released into British custody and repatriated, then and only then should they allow him to be extradited. This may seem like a contradiction, but the simple fact is that he SHOULDN'T have been allowed into the UK in the first place, so if justice is to be properly served then the least we can do is make the Thais cough up the poor devils that they have locked up for life in the most abominably inhumane conditions and thus something good might just come out of this shameful fiasco.
I got a bee in my bonnet about the Thaksin thing, can't you tell.
