Love the way You Lie

Just gonna stand there
And watch me burn
But that’s alright
Because I like
The way it hurts
Just gonna stand there
And hear me cry
But that’s alright
Because I love
The way you lie
I love the way you lie
I love the way you lie

It looks like me stumbling across a song that fits a political situation is going to be a regular occurrence…Don’t blame me…blame the music…. It’s like the song was tailor-made as a soundtrack to this event ….Is it coincidence that the song came out around the time of the event? Conspiracy? I think not as I doubt Rihanna and Eminem had any inkling of the political message they mirror in their song, but regardless they have hit the proverbial nail on the head.

So what am I exactly on about? Is it the love-in of Nick Clegg and David Cameron? Are you crazy? of course not, I didn’t say the song was ‘We belong together’ by Mariah Carey, or ‘My Boo’ by Alicia keys and Usher, or a ‘Moment Like this’ by Kelly Clarkson, or ‘Everything I do (I Do It For You)’ by Brian Adams, or ‘crazy in love’ by Beyonce…..I could go on and on listing the whole back-catalogue of love songs ever created but that would just keep me typing away till death arrives at my doorstep…..and plus…im taking you have already gotten the point of the kind of relationship Nicky and Davey share *you don’t know it but that’s one of the ways they love to refer to each other, others are Romeo and Juliet, Jack and Rose etc.*

Wow….i think that was THEEE longest sidetrack ever..but what can i say….they inspire a lot.  So back to the main point, what am i referring to with regards to these lyrics? *drumroll….acrobats….juggling clowns…..fireworks….neon lights*

Bankers and their relationship with the government <3

It just screams domestic abuseeeee and i don’t need to tell you who’s the wife beater in this situation, the bankerssss. Why? Because they use and abuse as they please, get themselves into tricky situations which drag us all down, run back to the government asking for help and promising to change, then as soon as they are saved they are back to their dirty tricks again…no shame or regret…even Chris Brown is tutting at how they treat their woman.

So this all comes about mainly because the issue of Banker’s Bonus is yet to be resolved. With David Cameron exclaiming recently that ‘banker-bashing’ is not the way to go …. really? these people rolling in money can’t take a bit *or a lot* of criticism? obviously they weren’t taught that sticks and stones will break their bones but words will not hurt them….trust the abused to stick up for their man  *he loves me he really does…he just gets all caught up in the moment and doesn’t realise what he is doing…it’s my fault it really is*….in this case it really is David, yours and the governments fault. You act as facilitators for the bankers absurd actions and the fact you wont call their bluff on their claim that if you restrict their bonuses that the financial sector will take flight is just pitiful.

So what about the claim that the financial sector will move abroad if  their bonuses are restricted or taken away….really? A whole sector will decide to pack their bags and move on out abroad? Uproot their whole social network? Doubt it especially when they realise that a restriction on bonuses doesn’t mean you’ll be working on minimum wage…you’ll still be able to afford that nice Ferrari or mansion to add to your already burgeoning collection….if anything, probably a few at the top would maybe move abroad….but even if they did…lets be honest…there is always going to be someone to replace them….this isn’t  star wars…bankers aren’t Jedi’s who need to be rigorously trained in the  ’force’  that only a select few  are privy to, by skilled mentors…..Plus if the top echelon can f*** up so badly what is the big deal about someone on a lower salary f*****g up aswell… only difference is their is a saving made with the latter *kerching*.

So in general…bankers bashing is something that should carry on till these damn bankers decide to get ‘real’ and face up to ‘reality’. People are loosing jobs here and there and are generally suffering in a recession that was brought on by people who probably wouldn’t realise their was a recession on if it wasn’t for the news outlets. I’m not saying that the government are innocent in all this, like i said they are facilitating all this by playing along with this whole ‘its-not-all-my-fault-please-pity-poor-old-me’ act put on by bankers…and it doesn’t exactly bypass me that some of the funding received by the Tories and other parties generally come from people who benefit from the financial sector. I’m just sick of people giving the bankers the time of day to whine about their over-inflated wages not being inflated enough….look…if anything…..when bankers are doing well you could argue they deserve to get bonuses…fine..sure…just make sure those bonuses are tied up to their banks shares…then they have an added incentive to not risk our savings on quick-term money fixes. Everyone is a happy trooper then…and if we get f****d …then at least we will have a bit of solace in the fact that they are getting f****d to …even if it’s just a bit :)

Till next time,

About time

Well i have finally managed to start-up this blog which I have been wanting to do for ages. Main reason why is that im the type of person who reads/sees/hears something and can’t help but give her opinion or view on it…..that being dependent on if i know a thing or two about what is being discussed…..because if i didn’t….not only would i look like an opinionated jackass….but id also look like a foolish one…and that’s just not on….

ugh I hate writing up introductions they always seem forced and in my case…clearly lacking humour. Give me a topic I’m interested in and I will go to town on that bad boy….but ask me to talk about what i want to do or type up a bit about myself…and my mind goes blank…

And i’d just like to give a heads up to the one person reading this blog right now *moi* that most of these blog entries will include sarcasm…yes its the lowest form of wit..but god dam its useful in stressing out the irony in so many newsworthy events around the world….Half the time I’m reading things and thinking…reaaaaaaallly? example, with the recent expense scandal in the UK. For those of you who don’t know what the expanse scandal was about i suggest you look it up  but in brief MPs where claiming expenses from taxpayers money to fund irrelevant things like keeping a moat intact, buying porn, buying a plug for the bathroom etc. yea, apparently some UK MPs cant function properly if their moat isn’t intact….i don’t even need to go any further….its hilarious on its own terms. Anyway, point being, the MPs expenses first came out listing the current ruling Labour parties MPs expenses only…and every Tom, Dick and Harry from the Conservatives to the Lib Dems tore into Labour party going into the usual theatrics of  ’this is a shambles’….’beyond belief’….’Irresponsible’. etc…..that was…till there MPs expenses got released…and even though they didn’t excuse themselves for there failings…it just highlights what politics has come to mean for so many people….a bunch of w****** who are all in it for what they can get and are more focused on bringing down the opposition party and improving their image than formulating policies based around the public’s interests.

It’s not all doom and gloom, but i do think that governmental politics has turned into a bit of a farce…The same can be applied to US politics..if anything the divide between Democrats and republicans is worse than it is in the UK…but I don’t even need to go into too much detail as I think the image below just say’s it all…

Well I think that’s enough rambling for today….

Until next time
