Prime Minister,

Putin is internalising.  He’s clamping down on opposition within Russia’s borders and silencing as many dissenting voices as he can. This is the action of every world leader when they are preparing to take complete control of their nation’s military and consider the launch of an offensive against those who are pushing them into corners.  You are one of those doing the pushing, with you apparent inability to keep your lips zipped over a revolution in which the West has absolutely no part to play.  Carry on yabbering your nonsense about Ukraine and I can see all those overpriced properties that your Russian olly mates have bought as investments ending up as piles of rubble that glow in the dark when Putin finally decides that he’s taken enough stick. (https://uk.news.yahoo.com/russias-putin-clamps-down-amid-mh17-dissent-010122393.html) Whether he will use conventional warheads or go straight for the big boys remains to be seen.  Either way, the residents of London will need a seriously big dustpan.  Is that the kind of world you want your kids to inherit?

As usual, America is trying to deflect the blame for the impending trouble by implying that it has been Putin who has lit a fire, whose control he might let slip and, as usual with the American military, it’s a load of old tripe. (https://uk.news.yahoo.com/video/dempsey-putin-may-light-fire-055601453.html) The West, particularly the European Union, has been entirely responsible for the flare-up of the whole situation, and we know what’s behind it as usual: that little three-letter word – OIL – that America cannot seem to get enough of.  We can see that immediately via Israel’s granting of oil extraction rights, in the land grab in Gaza that’s going on right now, to a company of which a senior US political figure – Cheney – is a director.  When does Murdoch get his?  they were offering him an oil well in Syria, as I recall, for his part in propagandising the NATO-assisted land grab that they had planned there.

Russia is experiencing an oil and gas boom and America wants in on it, to tie it to the petro-dollar, while Putin and his BRICS allies have had a gutful of the corruption in the Western oil-based finance industry and want to set themselves apart with their own IMF and related financial, multi-currency bodies.  This, as we know, would spell financial disaster for the American Empire, which is built entirely upon foundations of debt.  With China owning most of that debt, and with the ability and will to call it in at any time that is fortuitous for them, the end of the United States, never mind the American Empire, is pretty much a certainty.  Where would that leave the UK?

What has Ukraine promised in return for increased NATO involvement in its internal strife, Prime Minister?  I seem to recall that they’re pretty rich in undeveloped oil assets as well.

Chinese investment in the US already gives them enough financial leverage to buy out some 33% of that nation, meaning that they would end up owning 33% of the politicians.  Their continued expansion into the US, on the basis of debt call-in, would then become unstoppable.  America’s continuing calls for sanctions against China’s good friend, Russia, is very likely to come back and bite them in the rear end from across the Pacific.  I told you some months ago that China is playing a long game, and no-one (as usual) bothered to respond to the suggestion.  Letting NATO loose in Ukraine would give the two major players in the BRICS bloc exactly what they need in order to justify a total clampdown on the US that it is so easy to see as a future event.  Ukraine, unless the West backs off and leaves them to sort out the mess that they, themselves, created over the EU/Russia alliance question, which led directly to them losing control of the Crimea, may very well prove to be the tipping point for Russia.  That country has been building trade and other alliances all over the world, most recently in South America in a country that is no friend to the UK – Argentina.  What were the terms that Putin agreed with AR in exchange for (oil) energy?  Arms supplies perhaps?  So while your jingoist buddies would declare another war on a RU-armed AR for having another go at the shale-oil-based Falklands, so you could pretend to be as hard as Thatcher, Russia would face a lessened threat from our already-diminished armed forces on its Western front.  You’re being out-manoeuvred at every turn by people who know a lot more about how to be world-class statesmen than you or that clown in the White House ever will, and the result is likely to be that you’ll be right under one of their shiny, pointy missiles when it hits.

Meanwhile, you’re failing utterly to halt the sale of arms and ordinance to Russia; arms that they or AR may very well use against our own troops when you scurry into your hole in the ground and order them forward. (https://uk.news.yahoo.com/david-cameron-attacked-over-arms-sales-vladimir-putin-111655341.html)  Exactly how, Prime Minister, can the sale of any military hardware be “solely for commercial purposes”?  Short of the occasional rampage and pillage, there is no way on Earth that those armaments are going to generate any kind of commercial return, except via the arming of Russia’s minor allies in BRICS.  So, STOP THE ARMS SALES NOW.

And while you’re at it, sack the liar, Grayling.  His policy regarding the privatisation of the Probation Service has now been proven to be based upon a lie told by him to Parliament, and he therefore has no business sitting in a government chair in any office. (https://uk.news.yahoo.com/privatisation-admission-shows-grayling-misled-commons-081003549.html) As this policy has now been shown to be based upon dishonesty, how are we supposed to trust that any other policy he is dealing with, or has already dealt with, is in any way worthy of our support? (And most of them aren’t anyway.)  The whole lot, if your government wants to maintain even the slightest shred of credibility, needs to be completely reversed and re-addressed.

And finally there’s this chap who the Telegraph refers to as the “waste minister.” (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/conservative/10229659/Householders-should-make-do-and-mend-to-cut-waste-says-Tory-minister.html) Yep, he surely is – a waste of space; a waste of time; and a waste of oxygen.  Has this idiot not heard of “planned obsolecence”?  The companies who make “lifed” items such as washing machines, and which donate to your Party’s funds, are not going to be at all happy with Lord de Mauley, as what he’s suggesting would make a significant dent in their repeat purchase profits.  He also insults the intelligence of just about every single UK citizen with his thoroughly patronising “coughs and sneezes” type proposal.  I’ve had to buy a second-hand washing machine in my time as a householder, and I can say – as can very many others – that it is a false economy.  Once the machine fails once, it becomes an ever-increasing cost burden upon the household.  When manufacturers stop building household items to fail, THEN it might be worth re-visiting the “make do and mend” idea.  Until then, we are stuck with the throw-away society that your beloved free market economy encourages.

Sincerely,

Darren Lynch
