Rumours Abound Tesco
Its been rumoured that Tesco are in talks with Calmac the ferry operator that currently provides the only transport link between Stornoway and Ullapool.
Not only are Tesco taking over the town of Stornoway which has put the only competitors nose out of joint as they will now have to lower prices to compete but they are looking to be the first supermarket in Europe possibly the world to operate its first freight and passenger ferry service.
Nobody was available or willing to comment on this rumour at such an early stage but I am sure that a local islander will be able to furnish us with all the facts very soon.

The British National Party
What have I learned about the BNP in almost a year of being a paid member and as a BNP Scotland official, that a lot of the rumours are true and the party is corrupt, and is not democratic in any shape or form. Infact one might go as far to say that its not necessarily British but more of lets follow Griffin and blow smoke up his arse!
The party is full of a lot of lemmings that think Nick Griffin/ Mark Collett are some sort of 'Gods' in the making. I suppose when you surround yourself with lemmings it is easy to fall into the trap of thinking that you are the greatest person who walked the earth.
I had a person that wanted some answers with regard to the parties constitution. I didn't have a copy so I thought I would contact other officials for advice or to obtain a copy. The first person I contacted was Mark Collett who said he has never seen a copy and wouldn't know where to get one from. In the end he suggested that I contacted Nick Griffin as at the end of the day he was the one who wrote it.
Before I went that far up the official line I thought I would contact the deputy party leader, Simon Darby. His words on the subject were why do you want it? Just tell him to "F*$k Off!" He is only a 'red' trying to wind you up!"
I could add more to this but I will only be called a 'Red' or a 'Traitor'. Would I reccommend joining the BNP? As it stands with the current lineup It would be a resounding NO! If the party changes its current team leadership and how its run then Yes! Only time will tell if the party changes for the better as currently it is stuck in the dark ages.

Dead Livestock in Stornoway Petshop!
It's alleged that Stornoway Petshop in Church Street has been reported to the local council for the state the animals are being kept. Today a dead guinea pig was found 'stiff as a board' and lying in its food bowl by a member of the public.
None of the animals seem to be for sale which isn't really surprising when you consider the conditions they are kept in. They have tortoises kept on the floor on woodshavings without access to water.
The only wildlife that seems to be thriving is of the Arachnid family (spiders) going by the number of cobwebs!

Royal Navy Orders New Aircraft Carriers
The Ministry of Defence today gave the green light for the £4billion construction of two new aircraft carriers for the Royal Navy.
The HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales will be the biggest and most powerful surface warships ever constructed in Britain, and will enter service in 2014 and 2016 respectively.
Their construction and assembly at shipyards in Portsmouth, Barrow-in-Furness, Glasgow and Rosyth will create or sustain 10,000 jobs across Britain, said the MoD.
Mr Browne said: "The two aircraft carriers will provide our front line forces with the modern, world-class capabilities they will need over the coming decades. They will support peace-keeping and conflict prevention as well as our strategic operational priorities.

Repair Goes To Poland
I thought I would share this little snippet of information with you.
I returned my sons Creative Zen Vision for warranty repair as the keypad had failed after only 6 months use. So after phoning a chargable telephone number and as usual end up speaking to some ethnic in a foreign call center, I get the postal address to send it to.
The address is in the UK which I thought great it will be back in a week! It took 4 weeks to be returned, why? It has been sent from the UK to Poland for repair and then shipped directly from Poland back to the UK!!!
So not are these migrant workers taking jobs from us in the UK they are sending the work back to their own country, so their comrades can have a bit of the action.

Mass Immigration IS Worthless
The government has finally admitted that immigration is worthless in a late memo sent to the Home Office.
It undermines even further Labour's argument that mass immigration has enormous economic benefits for the UK - a claim Gordon Brown was still repeating yesterday when rejecting demands for a cap on new arrivals.
Ministers have been focusing on the so-called £6billion boost delivered to the economy each year by immigrants. But a landmark report by the authoritative Lords Economic Affairs Committee yesterday dismissed the argument as "irrelevant and misleading". The committee, which includes two ex-Chancellors and a Labour economist, said the figure gave no indication of the impact of unprecedented migration on each member of the UK population - who receive "little or no" benefit.
Now it has emerged that Home Office officials did compile a figure of the annual benefit of migration to the native population, which is also known as Gross Domestic Product Per Capita. A memo quietly passed to peers says the total is only £30 a year, or a paltry 58p a week in 2006. Read More

Tesco hits Stornoway!
It has been announced that Tesco has bought the Somerfield store in Stornoway. We shall have to wait and see if the prices will match that of a mainland Tesco store but its a step in the right direction.
Since moving to the Western Isles the store has been owned by Safeway, Morrison, Somerfield and now Tesco. At least now the store may lose it's nickname of 'Scummerfield'. If you have shopped there you would know why.
Be interesting to see if Tesco decide to take on the archaic church beliefs of no shops open on sundays!
