well here's an interesting one, David Cameron on a visit to Pakistan has said that Britain is to blame for many of the regions problems including Kashmir.


The Prime Minister appeared to distance himself from the imperial past when he suggested that Britain was to blame for decades of tension and several wars over the disputed territory, as well as other global conflicts.
His remarks came on a visit to Pakistan, when he was asked how Britain could help to end the row over Kashmir.
He insisted that it was not his place to intervene in the dispute, saying: “I don’t want to try to insert Britain in some leading role where, as with so many of the world’s problems, we are responsible for the issue in the first place.”


Ironic he should make this comment seeing as we are engaged in a military operation over Libya with no plan and idea of what comes next. Maybe Britain should stay out of the affairs of other nations, Cameron is repeating the actions that he is now apologising to the Pakistanis about.

Cameron is a left wing (as we Brits put it) "Pussy".

Pakistan was part of the British Empire a long long time ago Mr.Cameron.

So STFU!

How are the British to blame for the world’s problems? Did the British citizens vote to enter into war in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, and Pakistan? Did the British people order secret assassinations and overthrows? Did the British people vote to follow the American government, lock stock and barrel, into every conflict? The answer is they did not, but the British politicians did. Yet of course Mr. Cameron fails to mention that very important part of the subject.

My British friends, your Prime Minister is now trying to do to your country what our President here in the USA has been doing for the past 2 years, he wants to apologize to everyone around the world. If you Brits were just so horrible then you would not be among the most charitable in the world, if you were so horrible you would not be sending billions of pounds in foreign aid to assist the poor and starving throughout the third world, if you were so horrible then why do you let refugees in en masse then help them with housing and health care (which IMO you should not do), so for this smug politician who has never truly known what it is like to be really British but rather just a posh politician should anger the people even more than how much you already are angry.

This international political class is becoming quite sickening and they are thumbing their noses at us more and more every day. They just wait, people do not accept oppression for long and when their mismanagement of economics and society finally crumbles they will fall. Just like Gerald Celente says, “When the money stops flowing to main street, blood starts flowing in the streets”.

From the original article

Tristram Hunt, the Labour MP, historian and former television presenter, said: “To say that Britain is a cause of many of the world’s ills is naïve. To look back 50-odd years for the problems facing many post-colonial nations adds little to the understanding of the problems they face.
“David Cameron has a tendency to go to countries around the world and tell them what they want to hear, whether it is in Israel, Turkey, India and Pakistan.”

I do believe you are correct. Mr. Cameron is an elitist, a posh boy, he knows not of the labor and suffering of the general classes throughout Great Britain. He is also not a Socialist for his economic policies have proven that, same can be said about the 180 degree turning Mr. Clegg. Arguably New Labour is nothing more than the political class here to do one thing and one thing only, kiss the ass of big business, big banks, and globalists. Nothing about Blair or Brown was Socialist or even Social Democratic.

We are seeing the complete stranglehold of our Western governments by the posh elite, the political class who have lived their lives forever in the halls of manors locked behind iron gates, they desire control so that they may once again transfer that control to their successor. Meanwhile when in office they pass as many laws and do whatever is necessary to help those who bought their way into that office.

They are elitists, not Socialists, not Conservatives, not Liberals, just elitists who hide behind those names to trick the masses.

Tell me......when do you think you'll get an apology from the Africans for their major role in in black market slavery? The whites would'nt had succeeded without the help of Africans!

and yet the white slave racket continues.....before Africans ever arrived in the USA......and it still continues on to this very day!

I didn't vote for Cameron I voted for Clegg and got Cameron. Butttt I have to own I would have voted for the Flowerpot Men to get Bankruptyou Brown out. Doesn't he still hold a seat in Parliament I never see him there?

Initially I thought OK but it didn't take long to see that despite having a baby face, saying nice things about his family and speaking with two tongues, Cameron is hard nosed and only goes for exactly what he wants, or his tucked into the background wealthy buddies want. Time for state funding for elections and no lobbying

I couldn't believe he had the audacity to tell the public we have to sacrifice and accept huge cuts Then he leaps off to war in Libya with no date set to finish it, and a set of ludicrous agreements that were tried and failed with Sadam. You can only be speechless at the ineptitude of his policies. Ah! but we have another don't we, its telling the people fighting in Libya, Afganistan etc ha ha you are redundant. How to run a country and make a mockery of it at the same time!

Incidentally we never hear what these wars are costing us but at £300,000 per missile he knows or it should be abundantly clear that if he has a budget he can spend on warfare - he can spend that money instead of thinking the public should pay it. I smell something darkly deceiving with these little uprisings its like theiy are timed and orchestrated and - it you look at what has been done et Egypt they seem to have gained precious little.

I find as I read up on things our Government has had its hands in some dire, stupid, decisions and shown no regard for the people living in the countries of the Empire. But worse than that, if you look at the standard of living as opposed to the wealth of the country, you wanna meet people who the British Government treated the worse. Meet the British.

For years our Government has not invested our money into our country and the result is the infrastructure is creaking and grinding to a halt. It snatches huge amounts from the money collected by local government and stealth taxes. Today we hear that people like myself, who have paid into the system all our working lives will be refused hip and knee operations, in short any operations that are not life threatening. I hope Cameron will face the wrath of the public over this because we have paid for it all our lives and we expect it to be there for us. I can see eggs being thrown at him and with the cuts he's making to our forces and police we should be able to get close enough to him.

The worse thing wrong with Britain is its governments and governing classes and their corruption and stupidity.
Cameron can do his soppy sorry cr-p for the Empire, we all know two tongues doesn't care. I would prefer it it my tiny little country could get its own affairs in order, shut off the alliances with other countries and I wish the rest of the world would do the same. The way of governing and the institutions it has produced are terrible and corrupt and need changing from top down.

Welcome to Dorset Mr Cameron I have some eggs for you, where would you like 'em?

hey, in case you werent aware, I was being sarcastic because Obama apologizes to everyone for everything. I guess the humor got lost in there somewhere.

I dont need an apology from him for that ( im not black) or anything else for that matter. Except maybe to apologize to America for conning and paying his way into office.

I did a little looking Mr Cameron up and, what do I find, we have a few 'removed bits but we are still a cousin of our ghastly Royal Family. Who aided their little family member along his way with the odd phone call from Buck Pal.


Another thing that bugs me about these wealthy millionaire politician /apologists is that he seems to forget the huge amounts Britain have given in foreign aid to numerous other countries on a yearly basis and especially Pakistan. When one looks at Pakistan one has to ask how, with all that money givento it for nothing, how the hell is it that Pakistan can't seem to even hobble behind its Indian neighbour who has developed into one of the biggest economies in the world. Cameron said the Foreign Aid programme was sacrosanct but I suspect with these cuts us Brits are facing its more than time that aid started being invested for the poverty he and successive governments in the past have allowed to develop here.

No... We Brits don't say that...You do, and that term is Americanised anyway, so you're wrong twice.


And as much as i'd like to dismiss these comments by Cameron, they can be taken as a gesture of peace, which i'm not going to criticise.
