THE PRICE OF REWARDING TERRORISM

You do not defeat terrorism by rewarding terrorists, regardless of how many bleeding heart liberals argue otherwise. Want to know where that flawed approach leads to? Read UNIONISM DECAYED 1997-2007 - It's my first book and it explains what happens when you seeek to appease terrorists and call it peace. It's available right now for ATW readers so make sure you get your copy by emailing the editor! This is the book that dissents from the herd mentality that doing wrong can lead to being right. It doesn't and this book spells out WHY.

Here they are - the new face of Europe. What a pair. This, dear friends, is the new European President Herman Van Rompuy (Belgium Prime Minister) and the new Foreign Minister Baroness Ashton.

She looks like Miss Jones out of rising damp.

He's saying,
"No! no pictures please!!
.....that looks like a very expensive camera,,

...and she's just pleased someone wants to...

These are the beautiful people and we must now all unite and support this pair of political giants.

Thursday, November 19, 2009 at 09:57PM | Registered CommenterDavid Vance

They are both saying "Phew at least I'm paired with someone uglier than me "

At least she's had a makeover since this.

What a waster. Imagine: the Baroness has advanced all the way to one of the key posts in the EU without ever once being elected to anything in her entire career. So this is an apt conclusion for her.

From Rumpole of the Bailey to Rumpuy of the Belgie! That things go from bad to worse, and yet this is still a lot better news than it might have been!

Though I suspect we're talking "professional Left Wing tax-feeder", let's see who Ashton is:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catherine_Ashton,_Baroness_Ashton_of_Upholland

On 19th November 2009, it was reported that Ashton had been appointed as the first High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy. She has never held elected office.

... BSc in sociology in 1977 ... worked at the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament ... worked for the Social Work Training Council ... Director of Business in the Community working with business to tackle inequality ... established the Employers’ Forum on Disability ... chaired the Health Authority in Hertfordshire ... Vice President of the National Council for One Parent Families ... life peer as Baroness Ashton of Upholland in 1999 ... Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State in the Department for Education and Skills ... Parliamentary Under-Secretary in the Department for Constitutional Affairs, with responsibilities including the National Archives and the Public Guardianship Office ...blah blah blah

Aye, another wealthy, professional, radical Leftist tax-feeder who never earned a penny that wasn't seized from someone else by violence.

But you would though woudn't you Pete... :)

As they say Colm, every hole's a goal.

Thursday, November 19, 2009 at 10:17PM | Registered CommenterPete Moore

Sorry, should I scrub that?

Thursday, November 19, 2009 at 10:18PM | Registered CommenterPete Moore

You can do what you like with it, but you can't vote for it !

Thursday, November 19, 2009 at 10:19PM | Registered CommenterColm

I just love the humour in the names of these folk! - this one is Baroness Ashton of - wait for it - Upholland..
Not only 'Up Holland', but also, 'up Britain', and up the bloody rest of us!...

As that song goes - The working class can kiss my arse (or is that RS?), - I've got the Bosses job at last!...

A vote Colm? - what's that? is it something you clean the toilet with? because I cannot see what else it might be used for.

In Euroland a vote can only be used to say YES.. as the Irish came to learn.

Thursday, November 19, 2009 at 11:15PM | Registered CommenterColm

Actually, that pair could even give some respectability to Pete's call for assassinations.

If, as Oscal Wilde claimed, aesthetics is the basis for all morality, then surely it's OK to shoot someone who is both unelected and so ugly?

"At least she's had a makeover since this..."

Well she ain't half bad...
I can see how David Blunkett might think she's a babe...

but I'm gonna stick with Sarah!!

Herman Van Rompuy (Belgium Prime Minister)

Well, at least it's not Herman the German!

Friday, November 20, 2009 at 09:41AM | Registered CommenterPeter

Will Herman have the power to order a replay between France and Ireland after the disgraceul episode on Wednesday night?

Friday, November 20, 2009 at 09:42AM | Registered CommenterPeter

Ernest,
Do I take it that you're now back home?
Or couldn't you resist commenting!
I might need your support when Israel comes up again....
