Britain’s Moral Decline

This week has proved something of an eye opener on the state of Britain after 10 yrs of this Labour Government.

Sadly this snapshot also shows just how far our public standards have fallen over the last couple of decades, and it’s to no ones credit that our government and the PC media merely wring their hands, and accept this decline as being “just the way it is”.

Well maybe this is “just the way it is”, but surely we have something left as a society. Anyway here’s a sample of news stories taken from just the last few days, illustrating what a decline law and order has suffered in the UK.

Cab drivers demand zero tolerance
Taxi drivers have called for a zero tolerance approach to violent passengers after claiming 43 drivers have been killed in the past 15 years.

No motive over doormen shooting
Two doormen have been shot outside a nightclub in Liverpool. Merseyside Police said they did not have a motive for the attack but believe a gunman travelled to the scene in a dark-coloured hatchback car.

Five arrested over Rhys's death
Police hunting the killer of 11-year-old Rhys Jones in Liverpool have arrested five more teenagers, including two girls. The five are three males aged 15, 16 and 19, and two females aged 15 and 18.

Man dies after street gang attack
A 23-year-old man with learning difficulties has died in hospital after being "savagely attacked" by a gang of up to five youths. A 21-year-old man and three youths, one aged 16 and two aged 17, are being questioned on suspicion of murder.

Four in court over M40 shooting
Four men have appeared in court in connection with the murder of a biker who was shot dead on the M40. Three of those men have been charged with murder, possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life and one other firearms offence.

Appeal after man is shot in face
A 25-year-old man has been shot in the face in Greater Manchester. Police are appealing for witnesses.

Three men charged over shootings
Three men have been charged with violent disorder following the shooting of two men who are in a serious condition in hospital in Hemel Hempstead.

Three held in city murder probe
Police have arrested three men on suspicion of murder after a man was found dead in Newcastle city centre. Police have not released details of the killing.

Police car shot at in M5 pursuit
Shots were fired at a police car after officers approached a parked BMW during a routine check in Gloucestershire.

Teenager stabbed on high street
A 15-year-old boy has been taken to hospital after being stabbed in Cowbridge in the Vale of Glamorgan. A 17-year-old male youth has been arrested in connection with the incident which took place on Cowbridge High Street.

Flat death teenager 'was stabbed'
Police in Leeds have started a murder investigation after a post-mortem examination showed a teenager found dead in the city had been stabbed.

Woman dies following gang attack
A 20-year-old woman, who was attacked by a gang of youths in a park in Lancashire, has died in hospital. Lancashire police have charged five teenage boys, aged between 15 and 17, with section 18 wounding.

Four youths in court over murder
Four teenagers have appeared in court charged with the murder of a father-of-three outside his home. Garry Newlove, 47, was fatally injured after he approached a group of youths in Warrington, Cheshire, on 10 August. Adam Swellings, 18, appeared alongside three other youths, two aged 15 and one aged 17, at Warrington Crown Court

Third charge over party killing
A third man has been charged over the murder of a man who was stabbed to death at a party in Lancashire. Steven Taylor, 29, was stabbed during a gathering at his house on Primrose Terrace in Darwen on Saturday.

Two men bailed over knife attack
Two men arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a man was assaulted with a chair and a craft knife, have been released on bail.
(This story is disturbing, when you discover that attempted murder only warrants bail, and not detention these days. I assume that attempted murders are nearer an ASBO offence than a custodial sentence so no need to lock them up awaiting trial – the police won’t get witnesses with this scum on the streets!)

Three teenagers guilty of murder
Three teenagers have been convicted of murder and one of manslaughter over the death of 19-year-old Liam Smith who was shot outside Altcourse prison. (I don’t mind when they kill each other LOL)

Murder probe detectives seek man
Detectives investigating the murder of a man who was stabbed in his home have named a man they would like to talk to in connection with the death. Thames Valley Police are seeking Eric Johnson, 22, who was last seen running from the home on the day of the death.

And to prove how sad and frightened these kinds of incident has caused us to become –

Unmitigated ferocity, here I come
What is the right thing to do in the face of anti-social behaviour? It's a question being asked after the deaths of a number of people who decided to step in to stop what they saw as troublemakers. Here a man explains why for him, sitting back is no longer an option.

These are by no means all the murders of the last week, and many of these received no national coverage, but I think these headlines show how shallow the politicians are, who claim that “crime is falling”, and “these are isolated incidents”, whenever they get dragged out of the Westminster bubble to face reality.

Oh and I think the removal of corporal punishment in schools in 1986, and the rise in juvenile crime is just a coincidence, no really, it can't possibly be connected can it? :-)

Britain is in decline, and currently we don’t have the political leaders strong enough to pull us out of it.
  • Brown's too tied to failed policies and a leftie PC brigade that infects labour.
  • Campbell is just a blatherer and never going to hold power, and
  • The boy David (Cameron) has proved to be a real disappointment to the right wing, in any case he nailed his colours to the mast with his "hug a hoody" speech. If ever a man backed the wrong horse, just to win a few liberal votes, it was Cameron with that speech implying a softness in his approach to youth crime, just as it was becoming a vote winner for a harder approach.
Can you imagine Maggie making that kind of speech?

  1. Crime is rife in Britain. We have lost it in less than 50 yrs.
