In The Heart Of Darkness

Talking of failed democratic states and elections, the ironically named 'Democratic Republic of Congo' prepares for just its second general elections in four decades - when the citizens of this ever failing state come out with statements such as "the state is dying but not yet dead" or "the state is ever present but completely useless", or "when you are rock bottom, you can still dig deeper", you realise that not much is expected in this exercise of 'democracy'.

DR Congo - Compared with Europe.

 

This country is two thirds the size of Western Europe, with all the resources in land, mineral wealth and natural resources than you can point a pointy stick at, yet the Failed States Index lists it as fourth in the list of the critically failed category of states. 

 

When you read that Zoe Kabila, the current President's brother, ordered his Republican Guard escort to beat up two police traffic officers because they did not give his 4x4 priority, you can see that the words "free and fair" are not going to apply here ..... to elections or anything else.Given its size and resources the DR Congo should be a very prosperous country, but decades of war, military incompetence and brutality, corruption and absolute economic mismanagement have left it desperately poor.

This state truly is "The Heart Of Darkness"

Illegal Immigrants Work For New Labour

Question: Why did New Labour allow illegal immigration to run out of control?

The answer could be because for PC ideological reasons they wanted to destroy the concept of a 'white' (therefore wrong) Britain.

Possibly it's a quick way too buy votes with visa's, even when those votes are still living in Pakistan? This report shows that widespread fraud is being undertaken in the Asian community, with proxy votes being openly abused in Pakistan, to be used in the UK elections. Comment from the Government on this scandal? None, but then they have known of this type of fraud for years.

Or maybe it was because they make such cheap servants and helpers? Once again Hazel Blears appears on our radars when she is found to have an illegal immigrant on her election team .... Nigerian national Rhoda Sulaimon was due for deportation after the general election, having overstayed her visa.

It appears that the 'wimmin of the left' have a problem obeying the employment laws of this country, but to be fair envelope stuffers is probably not directly under Ms Blears control. The same may not be said in every case, such as the employment of an illegal immigrant by Baroness Scotland.
