Reclaiming Samhain ???

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Andrew on October 31, 2010

Today the clocks went back one hour in yet another attempt by ‘Government’ to interfere with the natural order of things. Humans are not that much different to the rest of the animal kingdom in that we operate best in

Free parking & Supermarkets

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by SadButMadLad on October 31, 2010

An open question to anyone about having to pay for parking on the road. Why do we have to a pay?

We already pay road tax for the upkeep of roads, even though only a small proportion of it is actually

We Are Back

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Andrew on October 30, 2010

Its going to take a few days to pick up were Anna left off when she decided to finally enjoy her retirement from blogging.

We fully intend to continue highlighting and acting on cases like Nick Hogan jailed for infringing the

2.9% A Victory ?

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Andrew on October 29, 2010

I am utterly astounded by iDave making this statement. This is an utter disaster, the very fact that the EU wanted a 6% expansion in its spending just shows how out of touch with econnomic reality the EU is and

The Blog Society

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 10, 2010

Did you hear it? Friday night, around tea-time? The crunch of gears engaging, the whine of engines turning over. Perhaps you smelt the noxious diesel fumes as Sandwell Borough Council revved up their engines, lowered their gun

The Ethical Connundrum Surrounding Mark Saunders Death.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 8, 2010

Help me out here folks, I’m floundering in a sea of ethics. I know that some of you are policemen yourselves, some are expert legal brains, some of you have in depth knowledge of religious tracts – there

Tenner Tantrums.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 7, 2010

I am thoroughly enjoying the outrage over the proposed increases in contributions to public sector pensions – they have a £4 billion shortfall to make up this year alone.

The term ‘ponzi scheme’

Little Tommy Plonker

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 7, 2010

Yet another outraged Mum. Outraged, I tell you. Her son has been ‘made to shave his head’ by his school headmaster.

Did he have nits? Was this intended to stigmatise him? Is this

Tolerance, Tarquin and Toenails.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 6, 2010

Tolerance is in short supply these days. If something upsets us we expect ‘them’ to do something dramatic – forbid it, punish it, vanquish it, dissolve it, arrest it, ‘ASBO’ it, or shoot it. The

Taking the Benefit out of Banker’s Babe’s Mouths.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 5, 2010

Who’d a thought that Ed Militant would turn out to be the silent champion of the new Tory policy?

As a man whose own household is well heeled, whose name is not on his child’s

Ninjutsu government

by Thaddeus J. Wilson on October 5, 2010

Nationalising ‘Compassion’

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Andrew P Withers on October 5, 2010

Being a Libertarian does tend to get you called a lot of very interesting names. Fascist, Right-Wing Nutter, selfish child hater being some of the kinder things that I have

The class of 2010.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 4, 2010

One of the frequent complaints of the teaching profession is that they are trying to communicate with large classes comprised of pupils who have a wide variety of different languages as a first language.

Great Expectations.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 4, 2010

Inheriting ‘something’ from your parents as the norm is a modern phenomena for the middle classes. For those under the age of 30, the expectation is that the ‘something’ will be substantial. It may

Another one in the Eye

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Thaddeus J. Wilson on October 4, 2010

I’m afraid I feel the need to have another “go” at Private Eye, mainly because they never publish my letters. Apparently, if you provide structured, reasoned complaints about their editorial bias, these are deemed unworthy of

The Power of Words.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 3, 2010

In 1940s Germany, the mere utterance of the word ‘Jew’ was sufficient to silence any calls for ‘due process’ or judgement by your peers – you had been denounced as Jew and even if

The No-fun party.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 3, 2010

Malaysia’s conservative Islamic party will field only a candidate who does not smoke in an upcoming by-election as the party seeks to boost its Islamic image.

The Pan-Malaysia Islamic Party (PAS),

New Girl in Private Eye

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Thaddeus J. Wilson on October 2, 2010

Unfortunately, I cannot link to the article that has annoyed me so much, because it exists only in issue 1272 of Private Eye. The “New Boys and Girls” feature in Private Eye is a fairly

Watching you, watching me, not watching ‘them’…..

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 1, 2010

I watched the news last night in utter bewilderment as a Chief Constable wrung his hands and pleaded for forgiveness – for having installed 200 CCTV cameras in what was described as a ‘Muslim’ area.

Guide to World Politics.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Sister Eva Longoria on October 1, 2010

My SPECIAL FRIEND Gildas the Monk has been trying to raise what he calls my awareness of GEO POLITICAL ISSUES, but I seem to be more confused than ever. Have I got this right?

A Polish nightmare.

The Anna Raccoon Archives

by Anna Raccoon on October 1, 2010

In the grim league table of primal fears, there is one undoubted winner – losing your child. To do so in a foreign country when your language skills are not perfect, and you do not
