The Muddied Hands of Government
By David Wynne-Griffith
4th January 2011 | 0 comments | 1 person likes this
Vince Cable’s foolish behaviour has severely endangered his party’s electoral credibility, and has scuppered Lib Dem attempts to prove it can be professional.
Sooner or later, it’ll get you. Entering the hallowed power-encrusted halls of Whitehall promises one unavoidable truth- that the office will one day get the better of you, that you will inevitably have to get your hands dirty.
And so it has come to pass with Vince Cable, the once widely revered ‘Saint Vince’. During his time as caretaker leader of the Liberal Democrats, Dr Cable enjoyed widely acknowledged success, from skilfully caricaturing Gordon Brown into everything from ‘Stalin to Mr. Bean’ to intelligently predicting the implosion of Northern Rock in 2007.
There is no doubting Cable’s abject rejection of all notions of conservatism. Stripped back, he is a leftist traditionalist and a free trader that holds no time for interventionist policies. However, his traditionalism appears through his political manoeuvrings rather than necessarily through his policies. Cable essentially saw the Lib-Con pact as a business deal over policy, nothing more, nothing less. His true vision of a Liberal Democrat regime is in close alliance with Labour.
Evidently, that was an absolute impossibility in the general election of this year, and so Saint Vince and the Lib Dems were cagouled into jumping into bed with the Tories, only for them to now fight over the duvet. Under this unhappy union, he planned to ride the wave of the coalition into the 2015 election, where the Liberal Democrats could boast wilfully over their significant policy gains.
How the mighty are fallen. The problem originally manifests itself in the irretrievability of the Lib Dem decision in May. By committing to the conservative coalition they ensured that they no longer represented the great mystery of British politics. They are now caught in a constrained compromise. They reject their old-founded leftist notions, but also cannot portray themselves as bastions of the rising middle class. Secondly, they have dirtied their hands with political mud that is virtually impossible to clean. They will never be able to return to the carefree days when they were up and above politics. The tuition fee vote has rendered this privileged position as a feature of their past; they are Whitehall muckers now, and part of the Establishment that they used to ridicule.
Dr. Cable’s recent Freudian slip to Daily Telegraph undercover reporters reveals two vital truths. Firstly, that Cable holds a vehement ambition to win significant electoral victories over the Conservatives in this electoral term and secondly, it unearths his utter disenchantment with the Coalition’s intrinsic policy direction. In the undercover tapes, Cable revealed his predominant opposition to a myriad of Coalition policies on bank bonuses, the Murdoch media hegemony, immigration, changes to the health service and local government.
However, although Dr. Cable can viably vouch to be on the side of virtue on all of these issues, his behaviour has belied his significant intelligence. Ultimately, it is politically impossible for a business secretary to ‘declare war on Mr. Murdoch ‘ without jeopardizing his career irrevocably. His naivety has damaged both his own credibility and that of his party. This has only further loosened the already fragile Liberal grip on the Coalition’s steering wheel. Their embarrassing u-turns over tuition fees and deficit reduction show that they do not hold the sufficient influence within the Coalition to win such victories. The Bullingdon bond between Cameron and Osborne has a clear, distinct vision of where to take ‘Broken Britain’, with or without the help their necessary Liberal tag-alongs.
Therefore, if the Lib-Dems are to avoid becoming embarrassing also-rans at the next election, they must change their stance. They can no longer run as a party for change, a party devoid of governmental faults, a party capable of delivering a fresh start. They must run as an executive party, a party of government. They must add to this image by gathering support from the fact that 2010 shattered the perception of a Liberal vote resembling a wasted vote.
However, if the Coalition fails to achieve a return to the economic uplands in 2011 and continues to alienate certain sectors of society, then any Liberal rejuvenation is impossible. If they are to succeed, then the Coalition must also succeed, for they are now directly associated with both it’s faults and successes. Nick Clegg knows this all too well, whether Dr. Cable and his party have the foresight to recognize it as well remains to be seen.

Gio Compario vs The X Factor for Christmas Number One
By Matt Fricker
15th December 2010 | 1 comments | 1 person likes this
Gio Compario, the operatic star of adverts for insurance firm Go Compare has thrown his novelty sized hat into the ring and joined the race to be crowned Christmas Number One.
Gio (real name Wynne Evans) has achieved cult status as the front man for some of the most annoying adverts since the Crazy Frog appeared on TV screens in the early Naughties, and hopes to capitalise on his ‘success’ by beating X Factor winner Matt Cardle to the Christmas Number One spot, with his cover of the festive classic, Santa Claus Is Coming To Town.
While normally, I would be running as far away as possible from the idea of a novelty cover for Christmas, the Gio Compario track is one I’m actually happy to support, as proceeds from the single go to the wonderful charity Teenage Cancer Trust who do some truly amazing work for young people across the UK.
So enjoy (if you can) the festive tones of Gio Compario and his Christmas single!

For those of you who have yet to buy your Christmas gifts, you are not alone. Even though we may start out with good intentions, unfortunately sometimes a busy work schedule or a lack of money can get in the way.
So for all you out there who have yet to hit the shops, here’s my pick of some fabulous gifts.The Organic Rose Otto Cleanse & Perfect
New to the Dr. Organic family is their Organic Rose Otto range. Here’s a little known fact for you: Dr. Organic doesn’t contain any parabens or SLS, that’s harmful chemicals, not every beauty product or company can say that.
Now personally I really like the Organic Rose Otto because it smells just like an old English garden. This gift set comes with its own dual action glove, face cleansing milk which helps to purify and skin toner for firming.
£16 www.drorganic.co.uk Dr. Organic is also available to buy from Holland & BarrettSweet Treat Boutique Chocolate Box

Included, is the pamper bag itself which comes with its own body butter filled with Shea butter and sweet Almond Oil. A body scrub filled with Shea Butter, sweet Almond Oil and added Vitamin E. Also included is a body spray which doesn’t really smell very sweet, it has more of a musk aroma to me.My favourite thing is it even comes with its own pin up girl on the body scrub.
£10 www.sainsburys.co.ukElla & Rose Beauty Bag Gift Set
Asda has gone all retro housewives with their Ella & Rose beauty bag gift set. Each product has its own character photo and name.

From Heaven to Desire…
By Sandy Samra
8th December 2010 | 0 comments | 0 votes yet, click here to agree or disagree
Popcorn – The Red and White Charity Ball in aid of the Elton John AIDS foundation at Heaven. For this occasion, two of my favourite House DJ’s were to perform back to back; DJ Alan K and DJ Jamie Hammond with percussionist David H playing live alongside them. After a whole month away from the House Music Scene, I was counting the hours, minutes then seconds until I could hear the uplifting beats making my heart beat faster and forcing my feet to move along to the dance-floor, where I would stay until the lights came on!
As soon as the clock struck 1am, the main dance-floor at Heaven seemed to miraculously fill up in a second as Alan K took to the stage and seemed to get fuller and fuller as Jamie Hammond joined him at 2am. There were also some amazing dancers to keep us entertained! The night was truly fabulous, and I had an amazing time!
In fact, I was having such a good time, I didn’t want the night to end.
Grabbing percussionist David H, I headed to one place where I knew the party was just getting started…Vauxhall.
DJ Steven Geller launched a great new night at Union in November, Desire – The Popcorn Afterparty – and I’ve been dying to go! Launched at the beginning of November, Desire @ Union is getting bigger and bigger, and after being there last Tuesday morning, I can see why. Steven was amazing and the atmosphere was buzzing! David H even made a guest appearance =)

How to ruin a protest
By Matt Fricker
11th November 2010 | 2 comments | 3 people like this
A predicted 50,000 students took to the streets of London yesterday to campaign against the proposed cuts to university funding and rise in tuition fees.
As a former university student, I can look at the level of teaching I received and the amount of student debt I have and can safely say that if I were still a student I’d have been protesting in full voice yesterday.
So when I was invited by some of my old University friends to observe yesterdays “Demo Lition” protest, I expected a far different experience to the one I had.
Before the march I expected to see a scene similar to the time I took part in a student protest against the proposed introduction of top-up fees (jolly students in party atmosphere a bit annoyed but acceptant that the economy is in a dreadful state and, financially, life is not easy for any of us)
What I instead saw was a far angrier congregation. As the students waited outside the Ministry Of Defence for the march to start, they listened to the pre-march rally which took place and cheered as phrases were spouted from the peaceful, “No ifs, No buts, No education cuts” to the slightly less peaceful, “the class war has returned”.
The march began in a traditional, peaceful way, with students using signs and their voices to get their point across, and there were some brilliant signs too, ranging from the politically disappointed “I agreed with Nick” signs to the humorous (one student’s cardboard sign merely read, “I’m already too poor, look at my budget sign!”)
As the protest progressed and the students marched down Whitehall, there was the usual mixture of chanting, booing as the crowds passed Downing Street, the odd sit-down protest, and occasionally, some wally jumping on top of a bus stop to wave at the crowd with a placard in hand.
By this point (about 2pm) the seemingly peaceful protest was cold, slow moving (we discovered that we had got stuck behind a sit down protest for an hour) and generally seemed to be just another traditional student protest.
Then the phone calls started coming in.
Word spread that some fires had been set off and part of the protest had been hijacked by groups’ intent on causing trouble.
These ‘protesters’ had chosen to storm Millbank Tower.
As my friends and I stood by the roundabout next to Lambeth Bridge trying to find the rest of the students from our university I witnessed a sight that I’ve only ever seen on TV before.
A small army of police officers (about 30) marched past where we stood on their way to Millbank Tower, alongside these officers was an idiot who thought it entertaining to march alongside them and give a Nazi salute to the watching crowd to show his discontent towards the police.
The shocking sight wasn’t the small army of police though, it was the 200 + protesters chasing behind them like schoolchildren running to observe a playground fight.
Eventually, we came to the realisation that, as students from our group may also be at Millbank Tower, we had to go and make sure they were safe. So we progressed down the street and watched as the crowds once again grew to a mass congregation. Only this time, the scene resembled something out of a movie.
For no apparent reason, a drum and bass gig had started outside Millbank Tower, a party atmosphere was seen for a space of about 20 square feet, just to the right of this impromptu ‘gig’ however was a banner which had been hung to a banister and read “SMASH TAX-DODGING TORY SCUM (NOT EDUCATION)” as we witnessed protesters storming their way into Millbank Tower.
As signs and banners were set on fire and great cheers were heard at the sight of thugs smashing through windows, the sad realisation dawned on my friends and I that, for 50,000 student protesters, their politically motivated stand had been ruined. The story was no longer the protests, it was the violence.
I spoke with protesters and the opinion towards the day was mixed, while they all condemned the violence that took place some actually questioned if violence could be the answer to making politicians change their minds, while others predicted that the events of Wednesday will just be the start of nationwide protests which will inevitably end in the same fashion time after time.

The ‘Got To Have it’ Mentality
By Buky Olufemi
5th November 2010 | 9 comments | 1 person likes this
It’s beautiful, gorgeous, great height, shape, size is just right, fit’s me like a glove, it’s the finishing touches to a perfect outfit, the missing piece to my wardrobe puzzle. A diamond in the desert, it’s looking at me, calling my name. It bekerns me to take it, pleads with me to buy and take it home…., so I couldn’t leave it could I?’
Sounds familiar? Yes well it will do if you’re a shopaholic… They are the extreme excuses that are often made by many; to justify spending big on that seemingly must have item.
Aged 32, with sparkling brown eyes and a confused yet warm expression on her face, Hazel stands in the middle of the shopping mall surrounded by beautiful clothes, rich in colour, quality and style. The shelves seem never ending, each parked to the brim with amazingly neatly founded garments. Her mind over rides the take your time and think about it thought mode. Immediately, with immense energy and great haste, as though It the last bottle of water on blazing summers day, Hazel rushes to the shelves and reaches for all four garments, where labelled above, stands a poster in bold print which reads, ‘new arrivals !’. This isn’t the first time it’s happened, in fact it’s one of many chain of events that takes place often at least twice a month, whilst visiting her favourite shopping centre…
So you’ve got to get this season’s must have’s? It’s been paraded on the catwalk, been talked about from Bromley to Scotland, and just been released and selling out like hotcakes. It’s that fabulous bag, eye caching heels or limited edition watches or just released ‘It bag’. It’s on everyone’s lips and talked about constantly…
Okay we get that you want it but do you really need it? Its often a weekly Dilemma faced by lot of people, many young people spend a lot of their time constantly chasing after the next best thing in order to maintain a lifestyle that is considered by most, Fabulous.
Let’s just for one moment go back, way back, back , back, past the days before we knew the meaning of the word responsibilities, further back still, where the whole world was a big play ground, when there was freedom to do almost anything. Yep, that’s right, stop right there. The time when parents handed over allocated weekly/monthly pocket money. If you were wise, you budgeted and spent the money over a period of time. You bought what you needed instead of trying to blow it all on anything and everything, money was used up little by little. Now take that same simple principle and apply it.
‘If I can just get that Louis Vuitton Bag’. The question is, must you constantly have the ‘Must Haves’?
Tips on being Fab without being out of pocket:
*Be realistic: If you can’t afford it, don’t buy it! It’s a simple rule that works out best every time.
*Looking Fab on a Budget: Every girl/guy wants to feel fab and treat themselves now and then, so don’t panic if you don’t have loads of cash to do so, remember it’s all about shopping smart, it’s about the bargains, sales, charity shops, and re-eventing a new style with clothes you already have. Mix and match your collection:treating yourself to something expensive now and again adds variation and style to your collection. Look out for shops that have your taste and style at great prices.
*Once you’ve got it, be content! : Enjoy and appreciate the things you already have, as it was probably once on your want and need list. Yes that’s right, it was most probably the item you justified, saved up for and eventually bought or just downright pleaded for…..
Now Release your Fashion Fix shackles and be free….
Style meets Affordability: The perfect fusion
Whilst having a conversation with a close friend, with great excitement she mentioned that the New ‘One in a Million’ Perfume fragrance was out and she wanted it. For a minute or two, with deep excitement she explains to me how great it is. I take in the information, pausing for thought, I consider intervening but decide against it, after all it’s her choice and goodness knows I have my own bad shopping habits.
We’re all guilty of this crime surely at one stage or the other, but let’s look at this closely. This tiny 50ml perfume cost £50 pounds a pop!! Mean while mind you, bills were mounting and needed paying off, she hadn’t done her weekly food shop, credit cards were probably already maxed out and we hadn’t taken the £2 per hour notice, the local parking meter demanded which good cheer. Parking costs were paid, in order to even be able to look for, find and buy ‘The Perfume’. Strangely however, it was easier to moan about the parking charges than it was for her to justify purchasing an item that was in reality outrageously priced.
Now ask yourself which is more important, to have something to eat or to have a nice smelling perfume?? The answer seems obvious, food right? However this is what many of us are like, we all of a sudden lose the ability to rationalize and make the right decision, step away from the product and move on with our day. All of a sudden, pupils widen, palms start sweating, heart beat races and we instantly reach for the credit card, process the transaction and indulge, given into that shopping fix. Ok so it’s not always that extreme, but the choice made still seems unjustifiable.
Time seems to stop as she explores the shop for all the new products on the shelf, stopping each time sample each fragrance, whilst still clutching her £50 bottle of temptation. Surely I can’t stand there and watch her make such a ridiculous decision given the circumstances. So I intervene and decide to meet her half way. I approach her with what seems to be the best solution. I test out the sample fragrances and find a scent that is loved by the both of us, longer lasting and most importantly, at £5 pounds only, a real bargain!!!
So this is what you do, next time you want that perfume, bag, shoes, suit, watch, ear rings, gadget, find something similar at a reasonable price that won’t break the bank. One that allows you room to still live comfortably and get everything else done that needs to be. If you must have it, save towards it; treat yourself for a birthday, Christmas present. It should never be a monthly must have! That will always leave you out of pocket. Desirable, quality, exclusive, unique and a bargain should be able to be said in the same sentence and it can all be found in your local high street, sales section, charity shop, or why not just simply re-event an outfit from what’s already in your wardrobe.
So there you have it, Fabulous buys on a budget. You can once again be free to skip around the shopping complex, without fear of falling apart and given in at the sight of the newest items. You can have the ability to walk around and get things done, with some left over to treat yourself too. No longer will you be part of the shopaholic’s statistics, grouped with hundreds of others that struggle to think straight and reason rationally at the site of good looking overpriced item. You’re back in control and forever in charge.

Students at the University of South Carolina in America are being offered the chance to study a course in Lady Gaga, reports the Telegraph.The course, which will be called, “Lady Gaga and the Sociology of Fame” aims to explore the phenomenon that Lady Gaga is in popular culture.“We’re going to look at Lady Gaga as a social event,” explained Professor Mathieu Deflem, who created the course.“Other people say that Gaga’s the new Madonna.
