Nelson and The Cuts

Nelson McCausland, Northern Ireland’s self appointed leader of a lost tribe of Israel, and Culture Minister (jeez), has been ranting.

His rant is about the removal of funding for NI sports facilities being the fault of the Conservatives. Not, you’ll note, the profligate nut-job of a government that came before the Con/Lib coalition.

By definition, therefore, Nelson takes a dim view of the UK government trying to get a rampant public sector deficit under control. He also seems to have an issue with Northern Ireland playing its part in supporting the effort to plug the fiscal gap.

Unionist eh? Little Ulster mentalist more like.

    The DUP are full of bible thumpers, including Mr. McCausland, yet when it comes to telling the facts, they are quite happy to use deceit (or should I say bear false witness) when it suits their political ends.

    Perhaps we should try a different approach when dealing with the DUP. Instead of explaining to them that the Labour Government “failed to fix the roof while the Sun was shining,” we should refer them to the passage in the Bible where Joseph advised the Pharoah that there would be seven good years followed by seven bad years. As a result, the Pharoah saved surplus foood for the bad years.

    Gordon Brown and Labour should have been generating a budget surplus in years up to 2008.

    Hi Jeff,

    Best wishes for 2011. Speaking of McCausland, I’ve come across what appears to be a new secret society, especially for Northern Ireland’s evangelical protestants. I might be wrong, but to me it’s got Nelson McCausland written all over it.

    They call themselves The Royal White Order of King Soloman, and you have to wear “regalia” which sounds to me quite a lot like the Ku Klux Klan garb – except to be in it you have to be strictly non-racist, and this seems to apply particularly to racism against Jews.

    Oh, and they only take “winners, not losers”. I think they probably plan to give each other jobs. Yuck…

    You were a little annoyed when I posted the Caleb Foundation’s address on here, so I’ll let you google them. Weebly hosts their page.

    The Royal White Order of King Soloman. I think my friends and I played something like that in the back garden when I was about 8.

    Regards,

    Lew

    (Oh also, to get in, apart from having to be a winner, you have to be very much opposed to the Freemasons. What a shower!)
