British Politics:
The World Is Not Enough
(A Very British Coup)
(A Very British Coup)
As one of the richest men in the United Kingdom and former Deputy Chairman of The Conservative Party, Lord Ashcroft, takes revenge on his former sponsor and mentor for not providing him with a privileged position which he believes his wealth entitled him to possess (a noted feature of wealth and power in the United Kingdom and, of course, in many other countries throughout the world.)
Rather than treat this as a separate unrelated new article, I resurrected an earlier blog which I think is apt for the occasion.
I would place Ashcroft within the list of 'disgruntled' and 'embittered' individuals hell-bent on revenge - for being, in his own mind, 'spurned' by those institutions he thought he 'bought' or had a 'right' to 'own' by virtue of his wealth and power.
When one steps back and reflects, it appears that, for those like Ashcroft, wealth has certainly not brought them happiness - neither in their private nor public life. As for power, the world is simply not enough, neither to satisfy lust nor greed and far from freeing them, all those fabulous riches have provided are 'golden cages' for such loft to sing, like a canary, from within.
They appear to be caught somewhere between limbo and purgatory, destined never to experience heaven nor hell. In this particular instance, one might include the pen - as the last-resort 'weapon of mass distruction' before 'Dante's Inferno'; with the scribe and author, in this particular instance, being guided, by a 'thrifty' newspaper (of enigmatic scruples, proffering to be acting in the best, the highest and the finest British spirit of the 'public interest') though the Asphodel Medows, before twilight takes it's full eternal and all-embracing hold.
Lets assume this is yet another very British Coup, who benefits? Boris?;waiting in the wings;or maybe even George?;away in China as it all hits the fan; or another Dark Horse, somewhere in the background?
To the more distant and remote, in its totality, it all appears to be pearls before swine.

'No Sex Please! - We're Anglo-Saxon!'
You can't help but
notice in the Anglo-Saxon media world the number of 'sex claims'
against prominent individuals.
I am not talking about
under-age sex but claims by adults who were adults at the time that the
alleged offences took place and should, by all accounts, have known
better.
(The normal response
in my time was a severe slap across the face or even worse, kick in
the groin, by the offended adult which usually removed any
(unwanted!) hand from any female private area – and at the speed of
light!)
I am now talking about
ditched girlfriends, former wives, embittered semi-geriatric
ex-lovers, 'privately maintained women' or acquaintances or ex-employees now accusing prominent
individuals of 'molesting' them when they were 18+ years old – or
bottom pinching them as adults (when they were above the age of
consent) thirty or forty or even fifty years ago.
I have to invoke my
own (lapsed) profession now and say that, from a psychiatric and
psychological viewpoint, it would appear that the availability of
mass media instant personal communications have produced a new type
of sociopath which my (latent ) profession has not yet been prepared
(or simply is not courageous enough) to acknowledge.
The Embittered
Sociopath with Obsessive-Compulsive Neurotic Dysfunctionalities
Without
revealing my own background and training, I have, by accident, met
and listened in public forums to some of the stories of these individuals and am of the
opinion (I cannot say 'professional' because I am not a practicing
psychologist nor practicing psychiatrist) drawing on my studies and
training, that such individuals have indeed suffered. Their
'suffering' however clearly appears to be the results of failed
relationships, unfulfilled ambitions, and broken or embittered dreams
rather than any culpability on the part of the individual being
accused of 'molesting' or 'assaulting' them whilst they were clearly
in a consensual (and sometimes clearly and evidentially, financially
beneficial) relationship 30 or 40 years ago.
It
also appears to be the result of resentments - 'Die Hard' and 'Death
Wish' - revenge checklists bubbling underground, like dormant
volcanoes, for decades.
So
if you want to call this psychological trauma, then clearly they have
suffered.
Perhaps
they have been quietly 'stalking' their former partner for decades,
watched him (it's usually him) raise a happy loving family and have
waited in time, in the darkness, for their revenge, before expiry.
False Claim
Syndromes The Role of The Internet and Social Media
The
internet, social media and perceived changes in societal values have
now provided the mediums for such grievances to be exploited.
The
fascinating thing about Witch Hunts is that every opportunistic
character can 'get in on the act' - from charities seeking a new
funding frontier, to politicians seeking a new 'fear' with which to
swing votes in their favor, to those with more sinister objectives –
such as the dismantlement of credibility in the institutions of the
State (part of insurgency strategy which political and religious
extremists use to undermine society) all jump on board for the ride.
The rest of the horrified general public just cower back in terror.
And it can be a very lucrative ride – the charity gets enormous
publicity 'taking down' prominent individuals (and, as an intended
consequence, it's coffers swell), the politicians are overwhelmingly
re-elected with the promise to keep civil society 'safe and secure',
extremists are very happy because credibility in institutions of the
State have been grievously undermined.
Under
Anglo-Saxon jurisprudence. the embittered individuals have had their
former lovers or acquaintances or 'sugar daddy' publicly humiliated
-and have even been rewarded financially 'for psychological damage'.
So it's a win-win situation for everyone – no proof required just
enough individuals to jump on the band waggon to ensure the public
can 'see' that, there can't be smoke without fire. Right? Right?
Right?
It
does not matter that no proof of alleged offences taking place 30 or 40 or 50
years ago has been produced. When you have Witch hunts no proof is
required - only public confessions, and recantations of sorrow (such
recantations used to be elicited by the Inquisition Friars with
last-minute pleas to the condemned that, at the very least, they
should attempt to save their immortal souls from eternal damnation
with a public acknowledgement of heresy, witchcraft and wrongdoing.)
Today such are elicited by lawyers acting for the 'victims'. That
this all take place in a public arena before the public 'burning at
the stake' – which today is the feeding of the accused as 'dinner'
to the 'starving' mass media wolves, bereft as they are of anything
worthwhile to gossip about since the departure of Rupert Murdoch.
[Some
even (privately) suggest a relationship between the ignominious
departure of Mr Murdoch from the United Kingdom, the conviction and jailing of his close
associates, and the mass and velocity of the availability of material
about sex scandal revelations implicating prominent individuals, to
long-enquiring bodies. Remember folks, you read it here first!]
Prince Andrew - Britain's (One time) Most Eligible Bachelor
Prince Andrew - Britain's (One time) Most Eligible Bachelor
The
embittered already, triumphantly, have Prince Andrew's 'head' 'in a
bag', so to speak.
(Again
allegations - but of a different nature than those being addressed
above - and again strenuously denied by the Prince - with the usual 'no
evidence required' by his accuser to fulfill today's criteria for
'guilt by association'.)
I
expect the next ones on their 'hit list' to be The Queen or The Duke
of Edinburgh.
Already
the demented and retarded claim that She is a lizard, has webbed feet
and a tail and that both of Them are aliens - and I don't mean the
ones coming in via Lampedusa (!) You think that I'm joking? Not in
the least! As Will Smith said in the film 'Independence Day' when
the alien spacecraft hatch opened: ''Welcome to [Planet] Earth!''
