J MARGARET CLARKE TURFCALL COMMENT
ARE WE ALL STILL BOGGED DOWN IN THE DARK AGES NOW IN 2012?
IS THE EVIL CRUELTY OF RUNNING THIS COUNTRY AT PRESENT DEPENDANT UPON DARK AGE ATTITUDES?
Such attitudes as surfaced at Ascot racecourse on Saturday bring with them a storm
of embarrassment to many of the people having a day out at the races, that day.
People who were subject to an Orange Sticker PR Media Campaign to show up racegoers who were not considered to be properly dressed in the eyes of the Ascot authorities. Another mega PR disaster? Or what? Bloodhorse illiterate, or people illiterate, or a mish mash of both?
Headlines in the Racing Post on Sunday January 22nd
TOM KERR brings us "THE DOT OF SHAME .... Under-fire Ascot forced to apologise over dress code stickers. .....
"ASCOT was forced to make an 'unreserved apology' to racegoers who failed to measure up to the track's strict new dress code yesterday and were controversially asked to wear small orange stickers to show they had been told their attire would not be acceptable at future meetings." (quickly dubbed naughty boy badges)
Headlines in the Racing Post today Monday January 23rd
STUART RILEY brings us "ASCOT DIGS DEEP TO MAKE AMENDS FOR ITS DOTTY DAY. Course refunds 1,000 racegoers but pushes on with controversial dress code changes .......
"ASCOT 'S decision to make racegoers who did not comply with its strict new dress code wear what were dubbed "naughty boy badges" on Saturday will cost the track around £28,000.00, as the management yesterday sought to draw a line under the public relations blunder.....
JMC TURFCALL COMMENT
RIP OFF BRITAIN
A country plagued by inaction and rip off misleading negative lip service. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
What does David Cameron and his family know about living in poverty?
Cameron's financial wealth makes him a mega hypocrite on all poverty issues.
IAN DUNCAN SMITH MP HIGHLIGHTS THE GOVERNMENTS LATEST STANCE ON POVERTY ON BBC BREAKFAST THIS MORNING.
Ian Duncan Smith portrays the governments attitude of evil and cruelty live on BBC1 Breakfast as he declares what he terms to be "Simple Advice" warning that the government will be forcing the poor to become homeless. Rt Rev John Packer speaks up. "BISHOP REBUFFS DUNCAN SMITH'S 'diatribe' IN ROW ON BENEFIT CAP
"THE RT REV JOHN PACKER, BISHOP OF RIPON AND LEEDS
Published on Monday 23 January 2012 08:37
"ONE of Yorkshire’s leading religious figures has hit back following a cabinet Minister’s outspoken attack on the bishops who are fighting to reform the coalition’s proposed welfare cuts.
"The Rt Rev John Packer, Bishop of Ripon and Leeds, said yesterday he was 'surprised' by the “aggressive” stance of Welfare Secretary Ian Duncan Smith, after the Minister suggested bishops should show greater concern for working people rather than fighting for the benefits of unemployed families.
Bishop Packer will today put forward a motion in the House of Lords – where he sits alongside 25 fellow Church of England bishops – to amend Mr Duncan Smith’s proposed £26,000 cap on the total amount any household can receive in payouts.
"The bishop wants child benefit to be exempt, so that children in large families do not suffer disproportionately. .....
Charles John Huffam Dickens
1812 (7 Feb) - (9 June)1870
THE OBSERVER WRITER CHARLES JOHN HUFFAM DICKENS PICKS UP ON THE LEGACY OF EVIL AND CRUELTY IN BRITAIN
NOT SO LONG AGO.
Dickens was an English novelist, generally considered the greatest of the Victorian period.
The continuing popularity of his novels and short stories is such that they have never gone out of print.[3]
AS DOES
Anna Mary Sewell
1820 (30 March) - (25 April) 1878
THE OBSERVER WRITER ANNE SEWELL PICKS UP ON THE LEGACY OF EVIL AND CRUELTY BURDENED UPON HORSES NOT SO LONG AGO.
"Sewell's only published work was Black Beauty, written during 1871 to 1877, after she had moved to Old Catton, a village outside the city of Norwich in Norfolk
Born in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, England into a devoutly Quaker family. Her father was Isaac Phillip Sewell (1793–1879), and her mother, Mary Wright Sewell (1798–1884) was a successful author of children's books.
Anna had one sibling, a younger brother named Philip Sewell.
Anna was largely educated at home. When Anna was twelve years old, the family moved to Stoke Newington, where Sewell attended school for the first time.[2] Two years later, however, she slipped while walking home from school and severely injured both of her ankles. Her father took a job in Brighton in 1836, partly in the hope that the climate there would help to cure her. Despite this, and most likely because of mistreatment of her injury, for the rest of her life Anna was unable to stand without a crutch or to walk for any length of time. For greater mobility, she frequently used horse-drawn carriages, which contributed to her love of horses and concern for the humane treatment of animals.
Black Beauty, Chapter 13, last paragraph
".... there is no religion without love, and people may talk as much as they like about their religion, but if it does not teach them to be good and kind to man and beast, it is all a sham...." —

Diana, Princess of Wales
Princess Diana
"Well, there were three of us in this marriage, so it was a bit crowded". "
Princess Diana:
" I'd like to be a queen of people's hearts, in people's hearts, but I don't see myself being Queen of this country. I don't think many people will want me to be Queen. "
Princess Diana
"Actually, when I say many people I mean the establishment that I married into, because they have decided that I'm a non-starter."
Princess Diana:
" I was the separated wife of the Prince of Wales, I was a problem, fullstop. Never happened before, what do we do with her?
Princess Diana, Princess of Wales
