Is Theresa May actually Jacqui Smith in a mask?

News breaking on the BBC that the 'controversial' American pastor Terry Jones has been banned from entering Britain 'for the public good'.

This is the guy who threatened to burn a copy of the Koran in the United States on the anniversary of 9/11.

Now, leaving aside the fact that this blogger thinks the official story of 9/11 is a load of old tosh...

But hang on. What's going on here?

Someone who threatened to burn the Koran is banned.

Yet the Islamist extremists who burned poppies on Remembrance Sunday and those who threatened to create unpleasant scenes in Wootton Bassett... they're allowed to stay? And get away with it?

I just don't understand it.

I don't blame the Muslim community for this decision. Actually, I feel sorry for them. For such ludicrous double standards - which is what many will perceive this as - will do nothing to bridge the divide between communities. Quite the opposite.

The political class must know that, surely?

Fine - ban the pastor if you like. I actually couldn't care less about him or his religious beliefs. Nor could I care less about the religious book he wants to demonstrate against.

I can even see why he might upset a fair few people.

Yet you cannot ban someone like him while turning a blind eye while we have activities like the poppy burning outrage on our streets.

And why announce it like this anyway? Talk about making a celebrity of the man!

One can only conclude that the politicians behind decisions and actions such as these (or lack of) are deliberately trying to get us all at each other's throats... for some sinister motive or agenda.

...like deliberately making us all too busy arguing amongst ourselves that we're not noticing what the politicians and the globalists are getting up to, perhaps?

I've noticed what Theresa May is getting up to.

And I'm beginning to conclude that she is simply Jacqui Smith in a mask.

Banning people whose opinions you do not like is not exactly 'conservative' now, is it?

But then, the Conservative Party is not exactly 'conservative' now either, is it?

I got her number shortly after the general election, what with the EAW and the EIO - she could have opted out of both but didn't. I've never really liked or trusted her, which is pretty much my view of all politicians - some are just marginally worse/better than others but I firmly believe that they're all crooks and hypocrites to some extent.

Forever... Diana

...genuine goodness is threatening to those at the opposite end of the moral spectrum.

"And when I look at people in public life... I'm not a political animal but I think the biggest disease this world suffers from in this day and age is the disease of people feeling unloved, and I know that I can give love - for a minute, for an hour, for a day, for a month, but I can give. I'm very happy to do that and I want to do that."
- Diana, Princess of Wales, 1996

"I think the British people need someone in public life to give affection, to make them feel important, to support them, to give them light in their dark tunnels. I see it as a possibly unique role, and yes, I've had difficulties, as everybody has witnessed over the years, but let's now use the knowledge I've gathered to help other people in distress."
- Diana, Princess of Wales, 1996

"Diana was the very essence of compassion, of duty, of style, of beauty. All over the world she was a symbol of selfless humanity, a standard-bearer for the rights of the truly downtrodden, a truly British girl who transcended nationality."
- Earl Spencer

"..she was our guardian, friend and protector. She never once allowed her unfaltering love for us to go unspoken or undemonstrated. She will always be remembered for her amazing public works. But behind the media glare, to us, just two loving children, she was quite simply the best mother in the world."
- Prince Harry

The People's Sovereignty

"...our membership of the European Union has removed our democracy; it has taken away the right of the British people to elect and dismiss those who make their laws. Our system of representative parliamentary democracy, for which millions have died over hundreds of years, has been frittered away. It no longer serves the people. That is why the time has come to give power back to the people. They deserve it anyway; it is their power and it belongs to them. Before long their anger will overflow if they do not get it back."

- Former UKIP leader Lord Pearson in the House of Lords, 5th February 2009

British resistance and liberty

"We British have in a very special way contributed to Europe. Over the centuries we have fought to prevent Europe from falling under the dominance of a single power. We have fought and we have died for her freedom. Only miles from here, in Belgium, lie the bodies of 120,000 British soldiers who died in the First World War.

Had it not been for that willingness to fight and to die, Europe would have been united long before now - but not in liberty, not in justice. It was British support to resistance movements throughout the last War that helped to keep alive the flame of liberty in so many countries until the day of liberation."

- Margaret Thatcher, Bruges, 1992
