He is probably a big Nige fan, has an EDL tat and a poster of Tiny Tommy on his bedroom wall, under his pillow is a crusty pair of old socks he uses to wipe up his mess after watching Nige spot dinghies live on GBeebies, his favourite channel. He longs to have a skinhead but mummy says he cant if he wants to be in the Church choir, he doesn't want to be in the choir but mummy makes him and the thought of himself wearing a frock gets him hot and bothered and very arousing. Because of his frock wearing fantasies he feels guilty and now hates anyone who is not a real man like him and Nige. He smokes but mummy doesn't know, he likes to stand in he pub like Nige and tell people his street has been invaded by people from Uzbekistan, who all have 104 kids and 23 wives and have a 24ft wide TV.

He hates this country, but says he is a patriot, he has a picture of the queen on the inside of his homework jotter, he sings Rule Britannia every night but doesn't know the words. His bedspread is a spunk stained Union Jack and he has pictures of Kate Middleton on his pillows. On his bookshelf between his copies of the Beano and Dandy is his treasured copy of Mein Kampf. Every morning he goose steps into the bathroom where mummy washes his face for him and puts his elasticated school tie around his neck.

When he gets to school, the girls ignore him, he blames them because he is a real man like Nige, but the girls think his tweed jacket looks a bit silly on a 9 year old. He lights up a fag like Nige and the girls laugh some more, he likes being laughed at, it makes him aroused, so he reads some quotes from Mein Kampf, the girls don't understand German though and giggle at him, unperturbed he invades the juniors playground. The big boys are playing football and he wants to join in but they laugh at him because he is smaller than tiny Tommy and tell him to go and play hopscotch with the girls. He hides away and slinks back to the classroom where the girls catch him having a crafty wank over a picture of Katie Hopkins. They laugh at him and he hates them, he hates them all, the hate grows and grows. On the way he sees little Winston whose dad was from Trinidad, so he tells him to go home, Winston laughs at him and says I am at home this is my house. He hates Winston, Nige would hate Winston and he does too, he says to himself Winston probably came here on a dinghy from Trinidad i wish he had drowned.

When you actually think about it, it is a triumph for the RWNJs

The RNLI should be centrally funded out of taxation and classed as an official emergency service alongside the others we have.

That it has to rely on charity appeals to the sensibilities of the RWNJs who hate to see the proceeds of taxation spent on anything other than tax cuts for themselves. The general public paying for the service out of the goodness of their hearts abdicates Governmental responsibility. If they had there way, the other emergency services would also be charitable organisations, the Fire service would be a charity, so would the Ambulance service, that way there would be money available for tax cuts for them as they can afford their own ambulances and fire engines etc etc.

This is the ultimate goal of libertarian personal responsibility, remember they have the personal freedom to choose to drown, to choose to have their house burnt down. These people are fucking insane but they do believe it, the sovereign individual has total control over there own lives and they do not want outside interference in their affairs.

FYI, the Ambulance Service in Western Australia has for a long time been operated by a charity (St Johns Ambulance) despite a succession of Labor state governments there.
 
I love the RNLI and have always put a bit of money in the pot when I’m at the seaside.

I remember a bit back there was an American who’d bought a boat in Norway and needed rescuing about 18 times as he tried to sail to the US. Obviously, the RNLI had to go out every time, but that doesn’t mean the guy wasn’t a selfish idiot for wasting everyone’s time and ultimately putting lives at risk.

The sea is dangerous enough without selfish fools wilfully going out in unsafe boats without any plan, other than someone else rescuing them if it goes wrong.

Not by volunteers though. Under contract to the state. Whether it's a good system is another matter but the St John's paramedics are employees.

Don't forget the Fire Service started out as something provided by your insurer - if you were insured with Sun Alliance their brigade came out if your home set on fire - if you were with the Pru then it was their pump that was called out.

I lived in Bournemouth and Christchurch for a while and know some folk who work at RNLI HQ in Poole - to be honest they would hate to be a public service run by the govt - the set up they have allows them to operate and fund raise as they do - govt influence and funding cuts would not be welcomed. They do get a boost in funding during the summer - thanks grockles - and all those RNLI Saving Lives at Sea on the telly have been a huge help also so I had a feeling that Farage and his whiners would help them in the long run rather than hinder their fund raising abilities. I'd be so bold as to suggest that the vast majority of those on Twitter who were saying they had cancelled their standing order to the RNLI never had one in the first place.
