PM Theresa May MP is Innocent.

Prime Minister Theresa May MP apologised to The Conservative Party Conference 2017 because she lost seats in the General Election.


She did not have to apologise. SHE IS iNNOCENT.

The Conservative Party won the Election but lost their majority because The Labour Party and their Leader Jeremy Corbyn misled the Electorate big time - and the Students and other supporters believed Labour.

Why was this ? Because ordinary people in Britain are fed up with Austerity and they liked the Labour Promises which were built on SAND !

Students and future students liked the idea of no University charges. Great - lets vote for Labour.
They could not care less that the Conservatives had to balance the books and reduce the high interest on the National Debt.
So, The thousands of Students voted Labour.
The sequel after the Election - Labour denied saying they would abolish University Fees.

Theresa May told the truth - Labour lied.
OK what next ? People liked the promise of more social housing fro Labour.
More votes for Labour.
However, no mention from Labour....How ?

Theresa May told the truth about what could actually be afforded. But, many people did not want to listen.

Labour then promised Nationalisation will return. The people believed him.
The Conservatives remembered the turmoil last time Railways and the Utilities were State run. Chaos.
But, many people did not want to know about the past. Many were too young.

And so it goes on. Labour offering goodies. Conservatives being realistic. But, people did not want to know.

THE BIG LESSON

From now on, start offering Goodies. Here are my suggestions.......

1 - LOWER INHERITANCE TAXES.

2 - BUILD MORE SOCIAL HOUSING.

3 - CARE COSTS TO BE LIMITED TO £50,000 MAXIMUM IN TOTAL.

4 - INJECT ANOTHER £10 BILLIONS INTO THE NHS.

5 - CONSIDER QUANTITATIVE EASING LIKE WAS MADE FOR BANK SURVIVAL

6 - SPEED UP BREXIT

7 - SHOW LABOUR POLICIES TO BE FALSE

8 -STOP IN FIGHTING. BACK THERESA MAY. SHE IS A VERY GOOD PRIME MINISTER

9 -INCREASE TAX ALLOWANCES TO £15,000 in 2019.

10 - LAUNCH AN INTERIM MANIFESTO WITH ALL THE GOODIES.

11 - OUTWIT LABOUR.

12 - STOP PERSONAL ATTACKS ON CORBYN. CONCENTRATE ON CONSERVATIVE GOODIES. ATTRACT LABOUR VOTERS AND MORE UKIP SUPPORTERS.

START NOW !

NEW EUREKYS LANDMARK

EUREKYS has reached a new landmark of 150 Articles.

NEW GUN LAWS FOR THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

GUN LAW IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
The Voice of one Ordinary British Citizen who loves, values and supports the United States of America.

It was far back in 1961 that as a very young man I visited the USA for the first time on a Scholarship to study Marketing. I landed in New York. Since then, on business, I have visited the USA on many occasions including a period of study at your wonderful Harvard Business School. I love the people and the Nation of America.
Like most people in Britain, I am saddened by the record of gun crimes and mass shootings over the last decade in particular. In fact, I am horrified. I want to help solve the impasse between your President, Congress and the National Rifle Association of America concerning Gun Laws. The present situation cannot continue !
Here are my views for further discussion.

A PROPOSED NEW NATIONAL GUN LAW 2018.
( Approved by the President, Congress and Supported by
The National Rifle Association ).

Some years ago, I wrote an article about Gun Law Policy in the USA.
I do not think that anyone took any notice of my suggestions.
So, the killings,  massacres have gone on and on since I wrote my article. What a tragic pity ! So, here is my update after the recent Las Vegas record breaking massacre.

The background is bleak and any attempt at change looks impossible.
The National Rifle Association of America strongly support the ability of American Citizens to buy arms and ammunition and to bear guns of all types and magnitude of destructive capability.
They claim - rightly - that the Constitution of American gives every citizen this right and this has to be strongly upheld by the Government.
President Trump gets a lot of support from the NRA. Will he support a radical review of the Gun Laws in the USA ? This has to be seen. The USA Congress has had many wake up calls in the past decade. Will they ever react in a positive manner to help reduce mass killings and individual murders before it is too late?

The Arms Businesses in the USA like this stance of the NRA because they make lots of profit.
The other problem is the Internet. Anyone can buy anything on the Global Internet - Machine guns, High Velocity Rifles, Hand grenades, Rockets, Bomb Making materials and so on.
No wonder there is so much violence in the USA.

Is there any solution to the dangers of new killings ?
I say YES.  Here it is with my logic.......

The Founding Fathers never meant for the Amendment to the Constitution for citizens to buy weapons of mass destruction because they meant Rifles for citizens to protect against enemies - not to kill their fellow citizens with Automatic Weapons  because they had no 21st Century weaponry in those days. However, the NRA would  never accept this argument. In my view, the NRA misinterpret the Amendment giving citizens " The right to bear arms." There is a need for a more up to date definition - to carry what type and how many weapons ?

 THE EUREKYS SOLUTION
New Gun Law 2018.

1- The USA Gun Law must continue to allow citizens to bear arms under The American Constitution but defined in 2018 as ...." One Handgun and 6 bullets per Citizen " providing the citizen is of sound mind confirmed by a Registered State Doctor and is  not a Criminal.

2- Registered Members of the NRA Rifle Clubs and Hunting Clubs can own One Hunting Rifle and One Handgun with 6 Bullets - but not High Velocity Rifles or Rocket propelled Rifles - and Matching Bullets, once again subject to a " Certificate of Sound Mind " and not being a Criminal. Each Club must keep up to date A Register of who owns what and details must also be transferred to the new National Register of Arms Ownership.

3- Automatic weapons of any kind will be banned for sale in the USA.

4- Shops currently selling Automatic weaponry must cease selling these items. The State will confiscate their stocks and recompense the Owners.

5- Manufacturing Companies of Automatic Weaponry and matching bullets must cease to supply the USA Domestic Market and they must have an approved export licence or import licence.

6- The purchase of any weapons including hand guns and bullets is made illegal from the Internet. Internet providers will have to withdraw advertisements on the internet for all weaponry. I realise that this is a difficult task currently but a solution to the problem must be found. Social Media and sites such as eBay must be brought within the Law. Second hand sales of prohibited weaponry is also to be deemed Unlawful.

7- The Sale and Purchase of Automatic Weapons and matching Bullets of any kind must be banned in the USA with heavy penalties for breaking this Law.

8- Private or Business Import of Automatic Weapons will be banned except for approved military usage by a Government Agency.

9- Soldiers leaving the Armed  Forces must surrender all weapons except One Handgun and 6 bullets.....once again subject to a Certificate of Sound Mind by a State Doctor.

10- Robberies of Handguns and Bullets from Shops and Warehouses will carry a maximum jail sentence of 30 years.

11- An Amnesty of 1 Year for Citizens to surrender Automatic Weapons will be granted. The State will reimburse the owners.

Reasonable people will say......

A- The NRA have their rights to bear arms preserved under the 18th Century Constitution but updated for the scenarios in the 21st Century.

B- The situation in the 21st Century with arms developments is fully recognised.

C- People with mental disturbances will not be able to purchase arms.

D- Criminals will not be able to purchase guns of mass destruction .

E- The USA Citizen can protect against break ins and attacks of all kinds.

F- Arms manufactures and retailers will be reviewed on a Regular basis by a Special Arms Police Force - The SAPF.

G- A National Arms Purchase Register - The NAPR will monitor the purchase of all Handguns and Bullets. If a name appears who has multiple gun purchases, the owner will be prosecuted and the Supplier of the guns.

H- A Citizen who purchases One Handgun and Six Bullets must present a Purchase Approved Certificate. The Approved Retailer must have his Licence Number easily visible on the Handgun or Hunting Gun for the purposes of traceability.

 I- THE BIG BONUS SHOULD BE....NO MORE MASSACRES AND REDUCED ILLEGAL KILLINGS  ON A GROTESQUE SCALE IN THE USA.

J- The Police Forces will continue to bear arms suitable to maintain Law and Order.

K- The National Guard will continue to be armed.

L- Any Member of the Police Forces or National Guard who leaves service must give up all weaponry unless allowed under the terms of the New Gun Law as specified above.

M- No person will be allowed into the USA with a gun or bullets of any kind except Approved Bodyguards of United Nations Members.
However, these too must be registered with a USA Authorities.

N- The United Nations must support the new USA Gun Laws 2018 in a manner to prevent any abuse. The General Assembly must pass a Resolution supporting the USA Government.

Has anyone else got better ideas to stop the slaughter, fear and sadness ?

THE CHALLENGES FOR AMERICA

Q1- Will the NRA accept this honourable and sensible compromise ?

Q2- Will the USA Arms Industry put lives before Profits ?

Q3- Will the President and Congress of the USA be brave enough to pass this New Gun Law in 2018 / 2019 ?

Q4- Surely, the Status Quo is totally unacceptable ?

CELEBRITIES DO NOT DESERVE OUR ADULATION


CELEBRITIES - THEY DO NOT DESERVE OUR ADULATION

Just stop and think a moment about the famous singers who appear in the Press, Television, Radio, Social Media and the Stage spouting their views and bias on so many subjects.
These Celebrities do not deserve the adulation that they currently receive. After all, they can only sing, act or play Football.
Footballers who just kick a ball around, albeit very well, also think they are semi- Gods. They are above mixing with us mere mortals.
Transfer fees of up to £130 Millions are grotesque. Is this not crazy ? £1 Million would be too high - donate the £129 Millions to Charity. I wish !

Now compare the success of these Stars with these other people, who just get on with the job.
They include -
Scientists for their research into cures for disease.
Soldiers and Police who protect us.
NHS personnel who dedicate their lives to help us
The list is endless.
Their Celebrity status is well below that of the Celebrity Singers and Footballers. Indeed, they do not wish Celebrity status. They just want to serve humanity.

There is something wrong in our Society today. Celebrity worship seems to be replacing Christian Worship at an alarming rate.

There are thousands of singers as good if not better than the current Famous Singers. They just do not get the chance.
Programmes like X Factor just want to make money. Only one performer or maybe two succeed. You never ever hear about all the other wannabes.
The same situation exists in football. There are many footballers who are as good as the Celebrities. They to have not got the chance of the big money.

I would like to see Celebrities be a little more modest. Realise that they are lucky to be where they are.
They should not hide behind closed doors from the rest of us.
They should not avoid their Patrons, slide out the back door, drive away in cars with darkened windows or worse, spout insincere messages out to the Fans.

So, do you agree with me ? Stop putting these ordinary performers on a pedestal. Stop paying £250 for a ticket to their concerts.
Stop paying high ticket prices for Premier League matches.
Stop paying SKY and BT  excessive rentals to watch sports on TV.

We should inspire our children to develop ambitions in meaningful jobs. Success should not be just earning £ Millions, driving an expensive car, living in a Mansion. It is true - money and celebrity status does not always buy happiness. Remember all the Celebrities who die young. How many have broken marriages. How many become drug addicts. All that glitters is not always Gold.

How many times have you heard Wannabees say on X Factor....
I want to sing and change my life. What they mean is...they want fame, adulation and the money. Such selfish ambitions.
Lifestyle work and careers should mean more than petty adulation.

Try and inspire your children to aspire to more meaningful careers that raise the standards of service to the wider Community and indeed the World......There is an awful lot to do!

The decision is yours.

REPLY TO ANTI BREXIT REMAINERS

REPLY TO ANTI-BREXIT REMAINERS

Let us remember a few facts.

Prime Minister David Cameron made a big effort, touring most EU States to try and get the EU to let the UK limit the numbers of immigrants which were swamping the NHS, Schools, Housing, Welfare and in many places, depressing wage levels.
EU refused to budge and Cameron returned to Britain with a handful of revisions. If the EU had said - Yes, we understand the problems facing Britain. You can set some limitations on the number and type of Immigrants. All other issues are minor. But, they remained steadfast. No variation in the key principles of The Treaty of Rome. How foolish and short sighted of the EU Leaders.

In 1975 the British people overwhelmingly voted to join the EEC NOT a Federal Europe. Conservative and Labour subsequently voted for Treaty changes that set up...The European Parliament, The Commission, The Council of Ministers, the EU Court of Justice
The British People did not and do not want the UK to be in a Federal Europe.  Remainers will argue that the EU is not a Federal State.
Yes, it is just a Federal Union. What is the difference ?

For 15 years the Accounts of the EU have not been signed off by the Auditors. This is outrageous. No Company would get away with this.

Why do countries like Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, the Baltic states like the EU ?
Because they get more money from the EU than they put in.
No wonder they love the EU.

It is not only Immigration that swayed the Referendum result.
If there was a second Referendum asking if the UK should remain in  a Federal Europe, I think there would be a large majority who would say No.
The EU is too big, bureaucratic, undemocratic and full of overpaid civil servants.

The Remainers should stop the Fear Campaign. Labour only want to get into Government. They are causing trouble in Parliament for their own benefit.

The Remainers are right to express their views which I respect. However, there are Millions in the UK and the EU who think their views are wrong.
We have to draw a line somewhere.

So, Remainers and The EU negotiators concentrate on building a strong relationship for the future for the benefit of the everyone.
