Honey trap is a well honed strategy to con men into parting their secrets. No one has a monopoly on it.

minor nit picking-The article posted already has the name of the MP and his wife from Brazil.
My question was- are there any other MPs involved with her.She has been taken to many political meetings and some MPs with an eye for wimmin like her might have taken on flights of fancy.

I am not surprised that the MP has relations with a hooker. What surprises me is that the hooker is a woman. Usually British MPs go for male hookers. That should also explain the fondness they have for Pakistan. Also, I strongly suspect that Wintermule's boyfriend is a Paki.

UKstan has good news

LONDON: Britain seems to have lost its status as one of the world leaders in producing graduates, after new figures reveal that the country has plunged down the world graduate league.

According to the figures, Britain has fallen from third in the league table of developed nations in 2000 to 15th by 2008 -- the rate of students gaining degrees has plummeted, leaving the UK trailing the likes of Poland, Denmark, Portugal and Norway

the 'Daily Express' reported.

In 2000, 37 per cent of 18 to 21-year-olds in the UK gained degrees, nine per cent higher than the league average of 28 per cent. Only New Zealand, on 50 per cent, and Finland (41 per cent) were ahead. But by 2008, the average had risen to 38 per cent while the UK had slipped to 35 per cent.

The top three are now Finland on 63 percent with Iceland and Slovakia on 57 percent, according to the figures which come from a report, 'Education At A Glance', by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.

Andreas Schleicher, head of the OECD's indicators and analysis division, said: "For many years, the UK was very much at the forefront but now you do not see that competitive advantage."

The OECD report also said that "labour market demand for highly qualified workers has grown significantly" and countries with high graduation rates are "most likely to develop or maintain a highly skilled labour force".

Angel Gurria, OECD secretary general, added: "Good education increases employability. In countries hit early by the recession, people with low levels of education had more difficulties finding and keeping a job."

The report said competition is intensifying among countries as governments realise the importance of quality in their education systems to ensure longterm growth.

Winston Churchill blamed for 1m deaths in India famine

Sir Winston Churchill may be one of Britain's greatest wartime leaders, but in India he has been blamed for allowing more than a million people to die of starvation.

According to a new book on the famine, Sir Winston ignored pleas for emergency food aid for millions in Bengal left to starve as their rice paddies were turned over to jute for sandbag production and supplies of rice from Burma stopped after Japanese occupation.Between one and three million died of hunger in 1943.

In her book, Churchill's Secret War, she cites ministry records and personal papers which reveal ships carrying cereals from Australia were bypassed India on their way to the Mediterranean where supplies were already abundant.
"It wasn't a question of Churchill being inept: sending relief to Bengal was raised repeatedly and he and his close associates thwarted every effort," the author said.

The man-made famine and the contrast between the plight of starving Indians and well-fed British officers dining in the city's many colonial clubs has been described as one of the darkest chapters in British rule on the Indian subcontinent.
Miss Mukerjee blames Churchill's 'racism' for his refusal to intervene.
He derided Gandhi as a "half-naked holy man" and once said: "I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion."
He was known to favour Islam over Hinduism.
"Winston's racist hatred was due to his loving the empire in the way a jealous husband loves his trophy wife: he would rather destroy it than let it go," said Miss Mukerjee.

House prices 'to crash 20pc by 2012' as Budget bites, says Capital Economics

Capital Economics, the consultancy led by Roger Bootle, expects house prices to fall 5pc this year, and 10pc in each of 2011 and 2012. In total, the group predicts a collapse in house prices of 23pc from the start of 2010 – a deeper drop than the 19.3pc crash during the recession.

"Higher taxes, spending cuts and rising unemployment all point to fresh house price falls this year and next," the forecasters said in a report. "The benefits of low interest rates will be undermined by a fresh tightening in mortgage lending criteria."

It is the second report in less than a week to make grim reading for Britain's homeowners. PwC warned "there is a 70pc chance that UK house prices will still be below peak 2007 levels in 2015 in real terms ... and that real house prices [after inflation] may not regain their previous peak levels until around 2020".

Well, IMO these capital economix guys are merely peddling their book and I doubt there'll really be a 23% further fall in UQ home prices now.... Shame if it happened though, eh? The ~~fart~~ heart breaks at the prospect..... But pity, UQ is stubbornly refusing to seriously consider the one golden option, the one magic bullet that can cure the present ailment. Import more packees. Now. Hajaar more packees. By the trainload, I say. It is the only sureshot solution UQ has left to it. In one shot, demand for everything - from housing to jewellery will perk up smartly only. Jai hor and all that. Seriously and sincerely. Only.

Well said, Hari. There are still ( thankfully, the numbers are not large) Indians/persons of Indian origin who valorise Churchill. Some of these approvingly quote his 'men of straw' description of Indian leaders. Here is where some sagacity on the part of Indians is needed. Whatever criticisms Indians have of their leaders, including Nehru, they should not be citing Churchill of all people in order to make their point. For his failings, Nehru was a much better human being than Churchill could be in a hundred lifetimes.

krisna wrote:Winston Churchill blamed for 1m deaths in India famine

There are more reasons to this famine apart from contempt of Churchill.. In spite of all his 'spite' towards Hindus, Churchill was a successful and accomplished politician. Person of his stature won't take such decisions purely on sentimental reasons. There are other factors which were coherent with his contempt. The following was one of them. Usually a policy of a stable government is sum of various factors.

Subhashchandra Basu and 1943 Famine

If we consider the disintegrated society of India broken by petty regional bickering and rigid, pathological casteism, it stands as a stark contrast in front of Indian society in 1940, which was rejuvenated, risen and million times more nationalized and united. British could complete India's conquest because of lack of unity amongst Indians and nothing else. It is impossible for even god to rule vast country like India without the cooperation of Indians. British could do it because we cooperated.

People of Bengal celebrated when Siraj was defeated in 1757. People of Pune celebrated when Bajirao-2 was defeated in 1818. People would have bitterly fought back if Germans OR Japanese would have attempted to colonize India in 1940s. It was becoming progressively difficult and expensive to rule India after 1935. The public opinion was too much in favour of non-cooperation. Any threat of external enemy would have instantly unified India against the invaders, be it German OR Japanese. It would have been literally impossible to rule India even for Japanese or Nazis, with owing to this unified non-cooperation of Indians. Hence, there is nothing wrong in what Netaji Subhashchandra Basu did when he asked the help of Hitler and Japanese to fight and overthrow the British regime of India.

Consider this scenario. If Bose would have succeeded in entering Bengal, imagine the tremendous support he would have received from common man. And now juxtapose the artificially created Bengal famine of 1943 wherein 4 million people died. Don't you see anything fishy about this strategically convenient famine? Was it simply co-incidence? I think not... The timing of this artificially created 1943 famine and Subhashbabu's success are deeply connected.. British calculated this hazard and induced this famine in Bengal which decimated the strength, the population and the morale of Bengal so that in case Basu manages to reach Bengal, he won't get as much support as he otherwise would have.

Churchill was at-least 1000-times better than the traitors and slimy post modern tree-hugging journalists, AC room commie delhi activist glitterati and Arundirty Roy who sell their wares for a price[the latest being the dawn who would love to see India split apart]. These poets, painters, activists stop we want peace [so pained to hear the yellow media refer to the JandK when the problem is the valley, vallabhai patel and ambedkar's dream will be torn by these slimy journalists in addition to corrupt politicians who want to break India asunder, especially that we the people one, who is worse she or Churchill( i think the former, there is no one to check these jhollawallhs who are having a ball nowadays)] in many cases might happen to be bongs[a harmless dig with no intent to offend] just like AK Sen and in general the humanities who were born in the lap of privilege. It is time a counter propaganda war is seriously considered. He also said something Never give up never give in never never never.. which I think is a take home quote even as he was parsimonious in praise to gandhi.

They are so pained by oppression except that seeing it for the first time is such a big thing and getting to the site of oppression a big favour[ for whom for themselves for the next guardian magic realism piece or for the poor]. There are so many dalits and poor who suffer but dont need to shout it out and demand murder. They just endure corruption and injustice even as they struggle to embrace education and find jobs. Are their ordinary voices not worthy of being heard? There is a lot of disgruntlement about Gandhi among two sections one the sangh and second the dalits for his equivocation on issues. That is another matter. But not giving credit to a complex personality like Churchill where it is not due is risking falling into the poetry laden trap of narratives of the oppressed or the dances of the poor[and a jhollawallah route preferably with cocktails, discussion, readings, dance, india bashing the suffering of the poor and the brutal state and not so street food of vijayawada's benz circle at Indian Habitat centre], they are vanguard of the poor, tamil tribune[a tamil socialist nation born free from the yoke of hindians], indianvanguard, kafila[their bedroom indeed] and other places where the firmament meets. The rhetorical question begs to be asked as regards to who is better men of action and great courage or these people and those who can tell of the times lived in bunkers and seeing war?

Without him Britain's history might well have been different apart from Hitler's decision. He needs to be condemned where required.

Here's the Vatican's view of Britain today and the Church of England!

http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree ... ue-beliefs

Xcpt:

Cardinal Kasper reveals the Vatican's true beliefsCardinal Kasper's remarks have revealed a move to reestablish the Catholic church as a defender against Islam and liberalism

Cardinal Walter Kasper's sudden diplomatic illness tells us almost as much about the Vatican's real plans as his undiplomatic remarks to a German news magazine. In an interview with Focus, he said that "an aggressive new atheism has spread through Britain. If, for example, you wear a cross on British Airways, you are discriminated against."

Kasper is normally one of the Vatican's more diplomatic and emollient figures. He spent years negotiating with the Church of England. He was the man the Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, rang up in a rage when plans emerged for a mass defection to the Roman Catholic Church of Anglican opponents to women priests.

Yet he was also the man who in 2008 urged the Anglican communion to take a stand against homosexuality. And his remarks fit into a conservative view of Britain, one which would have appealed to John Henry Newman in his conservative moods. And it is Newman who the pope has come here to beatify.

Britain today, said Kasper, is "a secularised [translation corrected] and pluralist country. Sometimes, when you land at Heathrow, you think you have entered a third world country."

The standard liberal remedies for the church's decline hold no attraction for the cardinal. "Look at the Protestant churches," he said: "They have married priests and women priests, too. Are they doing better? The Church of England has also taken on terrible problems with these developments. I wouldn't wish those problems on my church."

This is not only stupefyingly tactless, and wrong (the Church of England has 600 priests in training, half of them women; the Roman Catholic church here has 39), it is also bizarre, in view of the pope's initiative last year to welcome married Anglican clergy, if they are opposed to women priests.

The Church of England, Kasper believes, has been brought to the point of schism and collapse by compromise with the spirit of the age. He says: "There is a crisis of values and direction in western society which has its roots in the Enlightenment, and was given added impetus by the radical movements of the 60s. And because the churches live in this society, their faith is weakened."

This view will horrify many English Catholics. For the liberals in the English church, the reforming Second Vatican Council of the 60s opened the church to learning from the outside world, and the last two popes have attempted to drag down again the iron shutters which once kept the church distinct. But to Pope Benedict and his circle, the council showed it had learned all the necessary lessons of the 500 years since the Reformation. Now it is time once more for the world to learn from the church.

This view has a certain lunatic consistency. By blaming almost everything wrong with the church on liberalism and acoustic guitars, it pushes into the future any consideration of whether things will get better when those have been extirpated. It sets up the Catholic church as defender of European identity against Islam, and against secularism. The restoration of the Latin mass is also, partly, an attempt to restore Europe to its Christian roots by establishing a living ritual that appears to go back centuries.

Papal aide Cardinal Kasper under pressure to apologise Cardinal Walter Kasper gave an interview to a German magazine A senior papal aide has come under pressure to apologise after saying arriving at Heathrow airport was like landing in a "Third World" country.

{Pot calling kettle black}

Cardinal Keith O'Brien, Catholic Church leader in Scotland, said he expected Cardinal Walter Kasper to say sorry.

Cardinal Kasper pulled out of the Pope's four-day UK visit, with the Vatican citing illness.

The trip is expected to contain a number of protests and statements by groups opposed to it.

Cardinal Kasper had made his remarks during an interview with the German magazine Focus.

He reportedly told a the magazine the UK was marked by "a new and aggressive atheism".

On Wednesday, Vatican sources said Cardinal Kasper was suffering from gout and had been advised by his doctors not to travel to the UK.

They also said his "Third World" comment referred to the UK's multicultural society.

Ahead of the Pope's arrival in Edinburgh, Cardinal O'Brien told BBC Radio Scotland: "[The comment] was unfortunate and each and every person's aides sometimes do make awkward, difficult remarks.

"Sometimes we make awkward, difficult remarks ourselves.

"And simply, if we do that sort of thing we apologise for it, and I'm sure Cardinal Kasper will apologise for any intemperate remarks which he made some time ago."

The Catholic Church in England and Wales said Cardinal Kasper's comments were "the personal views of one individual".

Pope Benedict XVI is making the first state visit by a pontiff to the UK.

The invitation has been criticised by a number of groups, including gay and women's rights organisations.

Protest the Pope, an umbrella group bringing together a dozen humanist, atheist, secular and gay rights groups, has said it opposes the idea of the Pope being welcomed to the UK as a head of state, with the UK taxpayer paying for much of the visit.

Pope Benedict has also faced calls to address public concern over the sexual and physical abuse of children by priests.

And reformist Catholics are using the Pope's visit as an opportunity to call on Benedict XVI to open up the debate on priestly celibacy and the ordination of women.

Maybe, but why should that be of concern to Indians? From an Indian standpoint, Churchill's leadership of the UK during the 'Battle of Britain' should be of no consequence. Churchill had racist views of Indians, and he was largely responsible for the Indian famine of 1943, which killed 3 million. For that, he will be regarded as a villain. Period. The blatherings and whinings of Praful Bidwai, Arundhati Roy, Teesta Setalvad and N.Ram have no bearing on this assessment.

Some might say Vellani -- who studied philosophy at the universities of Poona, Oxford and Cambridge and taught at Elphinstone College, Mumbai -- underlined for Blair how not to run a country by tempering his enthusiasm for "state" control and regulating his distaste for "capitalism, which only cared about profit".

Pope uses visit to argue Nazi desire to eradicate God led to the Holocaust and Britain should respect its Christian foundations

Benedict XVI used the first papal state visit to Britain today to launch a blistering attack on "atheist extremism" and "aggressive secularism", and to rue the damage that "the exclusion of God, religion and virtue from public life" had done in the last century.

The leader of the Roman Catholic church concluded a speech, made before the Queen and assembled dignitaries at the Palace of Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh, with the argument that the Nazi desire to eradicate God had led to the Holocaust and a plea for 21st-century Britain to respect its Christian foundations.

"Today, the United Kingdom strives to be a modern and multicultural society," he said. "In this challenging enterprise, may it always maintain its respect for those traditional values and cultural expressions that more aggressive forms of secularism no longer value or even tolerate. Let it not obscure the Christian foundation that underpins its freedoms; and may that patrimony, which has always served the nation well, constantly inform the example your government and people set before the two billion members of the Commonwealth and the great family of English-speaking nations throughout the world."

The pontiff's speech set the wide-ranging tone for his four-day visit: despite attacking atheism, he paid tribute to the UK's historic achievements and offered "a hand of friendship" to all its people

A reverse labour flow to India from UK

British MP Vince Cable has thrown down the gauntlet by suggesting that unemployed young Brits be sent to India to find work. Since the economy is booming compared to the recession in the west, this reverse flow of labour appears to make sense. In fact, Cable says he got the idea from Wipro boss Azim Premji who had suggested that young Brits be sent to India to get training in cutting edge technologies.
