NO
MATTER WHICH WAY SHE
VOTED ON THE EU,
SHE IS STILL
THE RIGHT PERSON TO
BREXIT
US SUCCESSFULLY.
I never always agreed with
Theresa May when she was Home Secretary, and I guess I am also likely
to have some disagreements with her as Prime Minister.
But,
I like her style, I admire her dedication and hard work, and I am
very sure SHE IS THE RIGHT MAN FOR THE JOB !
However, she is going to need
to urgently clean up a few troubling sectors of the society (for
which I personally would be happy to offer some
help) and handling those sectors is going to make handling the
economy so much easier.
Those problem creating areas
can be summed up under three main headings:
1) All forms of addiction
(legal, illegal and prescription),
2) The National Health
Service, Public Health England and the DoH,
3) Fairer Economic and Social
balance in our communities.
These three sectors lap over
into each other AND into most other government Departments, so that
if we get these three right, the rest tend to look after themselves.
Obviously, in seeking success,
any government must juggle Income Collection, Worthwhile Spending,
Waste Reduction and Justice / Fairness, and practically all our
current and future problems are created by a failure to reduce waste
– mainly because of the false and selfish ideas generated by
vested interests in the society, about what IS ESSENTIAL
and what IS NOT, and therefore also what IS WASTE and
what IS NOT.
Out of a U.K. population of
some 64 Million we have 2.4 million addicted to prescription medical
drugs, nearly 200,000 addicted to prescription habit management
drugs, 500,000 addicted to illicit drugs and at least as many again
drunk once a week – some daily and permanently.
That's a total of some 5.625%
of our population not only nearly continuously incapacitated but
also 3.6 million people whose drunken and drugged behaviour is having
to be paid for by the rest of the working population.
But the “working population”
actually contributing to the U.K. Gross National Product is NOT
all of our 64 million of
population.
Because there are numerous
under 18s in education, as well as old, infirm and incapacitated
citizens, military personnel, police, civil servants, the unemployed,
prison and social workers, etc., - the truly productive working
population is closer to only 36 million, so that 56% of the
population are supporting the rest, and that “rest” includes 10%
of adult citizens nearly continuously incapacitated by drink and
especially by drugs - and contributing only “trouble”.
Now
start counting up the cost to taxpayers of supporting that 10%.
According to the Government's
own National Audit Office, the 200,000 of methadone OST prescribed
addicts alone costs £9.4 BILLION EVERY YEAR to
maintain, but because that massive wastage is spread across numerous
government Departments, most politicians are SELDOM IF EVER AWARE of
this.
The 2.628 BILLION of
tablets, pills, capsules and liquid doses which EVERY YEAR
go down the throats of 2.4 million medically addicted (mainly old
people) is another Taxpayer DAILY COST of £7,200,000,
which in most cases daily goes on for the rest of those addicted
patients' lifetimes.
In examining police,
probation, prison officer, Magistrate, Judges', Barristers',
Solicitors', social workers' and civil servants' time, expenditure
and effort, we annually find another few billions or more
£pounds of taxpayers' money being wasted on the half
million or so amphetamine, cannabis, cocaine, heroin, skunk, designer
drug and other sorts of illicit addicts.
Not to mention the cost of the
nearly totally ineffective psychiatric and pharmaceutical
prescription so-called “treatments” of such “illicit”
addicts for which families and Taxpayers foot the often repetitive
bill.
But what is most annoying is
that, whilst the still prevailing Department of Health psycho-pharm
“treatments” have failed miserably to cure more than 3% of such
addicts, ever since 1966 – for 50 years – there has
internationally been available a hugely effective residential
programme of not-for-profit centres for training addicts in self-help
recovery to lasting relaxed abstinence.
THIS
HAS BEEN SO SUCCESSFUL THAT THERE ARE NOW NEARLY ONE HUNDRED SUCH
TRAINING CENTRES (INCLUDING PRISON UNITS) IN 49 COUNTRIES.
But ACCESS TO British
Government Ministers for the heads of the charitable organisations
which deliver these services has for years been denied by the
smear campaigns of those psycho-pharm vested interests who want to go
on daily selling their addictive chemical substances to as many U.K.
citizens as possible.
Then there are the thousands
of British school children of all ages being basically force-fed
Ritalin, Prozac and various other psychiatric drugs, by school
psychiatrists and nurses, for invented so-called mental psychiatric
“disorders” such as ADHD and SAD. This is an important
pharmaceutical drugs marketing ploy, because the younger you can get
a child addicted, the longer he or she will remain a profitable and
compliant consumer.
Nearly
ALL of course paid for by U.K. taxpayers.
As a consequence, IF it
might appear that this one subject of “Drink & Drug
Consumption and ADDICTION” is the most significant and
vital of the three “troubling sectors” mentioned at the beginning
of this blog-post, then that is only because DRINK & DRUG
CONSUMPTION are together what do most to destroy all facets of the
society and the economy upon which our survival most depends,
including our National Health Service and the economic balance within
our society.
The National Health Service
each year spends an increasing amount on drugs and medicines
(proportionally higher than any other service supplied by the
NHS).
This
is because of the palliative orientation of “symptom
management” practices which (by psycho-pharm cash grants to
medical teaching facilities) has
gradually been made to
dominate doctors' training over the last eighty years, to the
increasing exclusion of more thorough pre-treatment testing, and the
omitting of cure interventions based on detecting and handling
dietary deficiencies and excesses, and based on allergenic
investigations and avoidance of allergies' causal factors.
Most of the massive, wasteful,
no longer necessary and in fact damaging addictive drug prescribing, over-prescribing and usage TAKES PLACE WITHIN the NHS.
And
whilst most members of our society consume alcohol, it is in a sense
mainly those who choose to buy the alcohol alone (and
not the accompanying meal which should provide balance for the drink)
who cause a lot of the ensuing trouble.
In fact, when you look at our
town streets and pubs on a Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, you
can quickly see that policing, cleaning up the mess, stopping fights and treating
accident and fight injuries, repairing property and vehicle damage,
keeping the peace and the handling of offenders in the courts, and occasionally eventually on
probation and in jail, PRETTY WELL EATS UP MOST OF THE ALCOHOL TAXES collected by the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
But it's the LOCAL Council,
the LOCAL Police, the LOCAL Shopkeepers, the LOCAL Doctors, Ambulance
men and Hospitals and the LOCAL Courts which cover all these LOCAL
costs – NOT the Chancellor who spends his alcohol tax collections
(plus taxes from the pharmaceutical industry) on keeping 10% of the
working population ADDICTED to psycho-pharm prescription drugs in the
name of so-called “mental health”.
The trouble of course is that
for over a century our population and our politicians have been very
professionally conned into believing the stories about the “ethical”
drugs industry, about what they contribute to the economy, about the
“nice big” taxes they pay and obviously about how good drugs are
for our health.
And
don't make the mistake of thinking that some of this P.R. is not
true.
Because, whilst some ruthless
massive international pharmaceutical producers make fortunes by
skating on the thin edge of honesty, humanity and the law (a fact
proved by the number of court cases they lose and the vast penalties
they regularly have to pay), most producers make normal profits
and do produce, market and deliver ethical products serving humane
and valuable purposes.
However,
where many of them come adrift is when they try to expand from the
field of physical medicine into that of psychiatry's version of
“mental health”.
This is because the whole
concept of the mind and mental health, as espoused by seriously
flawed international psychiatry, proves to be a totally unreliable
and damaging basis for the prescribing of most chemical substances –
especially those of an addictive and / or hypnotic nature.
The bulk of “substances”
which provide the first step towards alleviating the true, realistic
and actual adverse mental health conditions are fresh good quality
natural nutrition, balanced nutrition, natural vitamins, natural
minerals and other healthy food and supplements, the prescribing of
which is based on thorough and adequate testing, including the
detection and handling of allergic conditions.
As long as the pharmaceutical
industry continues to rely on psychiatric guidance in the field of
mental health, they will find themselves getting further INTO the
psychiatric mine-fields, instead of OUT, and paying more and more
penalties.
It is my personal hope that
Mrs May, with her already great experience of Home Office affairs,
will soon combine that wisdom, with a new and closer experience of
other Departments, into a coherent avoidance, prevention, eradication and
ADDICTION RECOVERY TRAINING strategy.
And
I believe she has the breadth and sharpness of perception to
recognise that addiction can never be a ONE Department problem
relying on a ONE Department solution, because ADDICTION impinges upon
and requires some of its solution FROM ALL DEPARTMENTS – especially
10, Downing Street.
