I'm flying to Budapest next Monday, 23 May, for a few days, to finalise the contract with a venue for the next in-person International Conference on Men's Issues I'm organising, to be held in the summer of 2024. We already have five or six excellent speakers lined up, including two MPs, more details in due course. I'm taking the opportunity to close the office and give the staff a well-earned break....

Yesterday we published a post on this issue. It has led to an interesting and at times heated exchange on our page, from Raoul and Gemma, who between them appear to believe (a) the cast-iron evidence of a causal link between more women on boards and corporate financial decline is flawed - without providing any counter-evidence - and, (b) that the causal link exists but it's a price worth paying in order to have more ladies in the boardroom....

An outbreak of common sense in California.

Enjoy. A tip of the hat to Darrell Meekcom, an inspiration. Isn't mooning at speed cameras on everyone's bucket list, as it was on his? It's certainly on mine. The speed limits across much of this country are a disgrace, particularly the proliferation of 20mph zones, formerly 30mph. Bedford is more affected by this utter lunacy than most places. Who decides on these things?...

Conduceți un vehicul și/sau consumați alcool? În acest caz, plătiți niveluri de impozite indirecte atât de mari încât sunt IMORALE. Dacă doriți să știți cât de mult din venitul dumneavoastră obținut cu greu este folosit pentru aceste impozite indirecte și cât ați putea economisi prin propunerile noastre, consultați calculul nostru.

De ce ar trebui șoferii și/sau băutorii să plătească mult mai mult impozit decât alți oameni? Majoritatea oamenilor plătesc pentru aceste bunuri din venituri care au fost deja impozitate (impozit pe venit și asigurări naționale). Taxele indirecte (accizele și TVA) pe acele produse variază între 45 - 90% din prețurile de vânzare, în funcție de categorie. Vă îndemnăm să ne votați pentru a transmite un mesaj foarte clar guvernului că aceste taxe trebuie reduse la jumătate. Ar rămâne în continuare excesive la 22 - 45% din prețurile de vânzare, dar ar fi un început.

În manifestul nostru https://cafp.uk/manifesto/ avem două secțiuni despre aceste taxe și impactul reducerii lor cu 50%, pp.76-81, 84, 85. Următoarea imagine este una dintre diagramele circulare din manifest, care arată cât de mult impozit indirect (segmentele roșii) plătiți pentru mărfuri (în acest caz, o sticlă de un litru de scotch whisky Bell, la prețul de vânzare din Bedford) și cât ați economisi dacă propunerile noastre ar fi introduse.

Manifesto Our 94-page manifesto for the next general election is here: 220422-v3-CAFP-manifestoDownload We’re going to change the face of British politics in time, starting in Bedford, so a lot of time…

VOTE AT THE NEXT GENERAL ELECTION - LESS THAN TWO YEARS AWAY - FOR THE CHILDREN & FAMILY PARTY, A NEW BEDFORD-BASED PARTY WHICH HAS AS ITS #1 ISSUE ENSURING CHILDREN'S ACCESS TO BOTH PARENTS AFTER FAMILY BREAKDOWNS, AS WELL AS ACCESS TO GRANDPARENTS, GREAT-GRANDPARENTS, AUNTS AND UNCLES, COUSINS...

(Please be sure to 'like' this page. Thank you.)

The Conservative, Labour and Liberal Democrat parties have all been shamefully complicit over recent decades in allowing the systemically corrupt family courts (and the systemically corrupt gateway services to the courts, and corrupt professionals) to deprive children from seeing one of their parents (the fathers, in 90%+ of cases) following family breakdowns. This is ABUSE of children and the parent in question, along with many other relatives. THE SUFFERING IS INCALCULABLE AND MUST END.

We are the only party with practical proposals to end the problem. They are outlined in our manifesto https://cafp.uk/manifesto/, pp.16-20.

I have pledged that if elected, I'll draw only half the income I'll be entitled to as an MP (currently £84,000 p.a.), donating the remainder to good causes in Bedford and Kempston.

I should like to meet with you either for breakfast (or just a tea or coffee) on Saturdays at 10am, Bedford town centre https://cafp.uk/breakfast-with-the-boss/, or online 7pm on Sundays https://cafp.uk/drivers-drinkers-and-smokers-club/.

I invite you to vote for our party at the next general election so we can start to address this problem, which should have been addressed decades ago. Thank you.

VOTE FOR US FOR MUCH LOWER PRICES FOR VEHICLE FUELS AND ALCOHOLIC DRINKS

(Please be sure to 'like' this page. Thank you.)

Firstly, I invite you to meet me (Mike Buchanan, party leader, Children & Family Party http://cafp.uk) either for breakfast (or just a tea or coffee) on Saturdays at 10am, Bedford town centre https://cafp.uk/breakfast-with-the-boss/, or online 7pm on Sundays https://cafp.uk/drivers-drinkers-and-smokers-club/.

Do you run a vehicle and/or drink alcohol? In that case you're paying levels of indirect taxes so punitive as to be IMMORAL. If you want to know how much of your hard-earned income goes on these indirect taxes, and how much you could save through our proposals, check out our ready reckoner https://cafp.uk/.../your-potential-savings-on-vehicle.../
Why should drivers and/or drinkers pay so much more tax than other people? Most people pay for these goods from income which has already been taxed (income tax and National Insurance).
The indirect taxes (duty and VAT) on those products range from 45 - 90% of selling prices, depending on the category. We urge you to vote for us to send a very clear message to the government that these taxes must be halved. They would still remain excessive at 22 - 45% of selling prices, but it would be a start.
In our manifesto https://cafp.uk/manifesto/ we have two sections on these taxes, and the impact of reducing them by 50%, pp.76-81, 84, 85. The following image is one of the pie charts in the manifesto, showing how much indirect tax (the red segments) you pay for on goods (in this case, a litre bottle of Bell's scotch whisky, on sale in Bedford recently), and how much you'd save if our proposals were introduced. The price of the bottle of Bell's would drop from £16.00 to £8.34.

AN OPEN LETTER TO MOHAMMAD YASIN MP IN RELATION TO THE NON-THERAPEUTIC CIRCUMCISION OF BOYS, MALE GE***AL MUTILATION, 'KHITAN'

(Please be sure to 'like' this page. Thank you.)

Hello. Firstly, I invite you to meet me (Mike Buchanan, party leader, Children & Family party http://cafp.uk) either for breakfast (or just a tea or coffee) on Saturdays at 10am, Bedford town centre https://cafp.uk/breakfast-with-the-boss/
or online 7pm on Sundays https://cafp.uk/drivers-drinkers-and-smokers-club/.

My political party, recently launched in Bedford, is committed to ending the practice of non-therapeutic circumcision of boys, otherwise known as Male Ge***al Mutilation (MGM), or 'khitan' (the Islamic term, most Muslim boys are circumcised).

Carrying out the procedure has been a crime in the UK since at least the passing of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861. No exceptions to the laws of this country are permitted on the grounds of culture or religion. The procedure always causes harm and has no therapeutic value.

I have written an open letter to Mohammad Yasin, our Labour MP, on the matter. The letter is here https://cafp.uk/2022/05/03/an-open-letter-to-mohammad-yasin-concerning-male-ge***al-mutilation/.

US Supreme Court is set to undo 50 years of abortion rights in America by scrapping landmark Roe V Wade decision

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10777531/US-Supreme-Court-overturn-ruling-legalised-abortion.html

Fingers crossed.

Hello. I'm Mike Buchanan, the pro-life leader of the Children & Family Party, a political party recently launched in Bedford, thttp://cafp.uk.

If you're interested in reducing the elective abortion limit from the current 24 weeks to 13 weeks, we're the only party you should consider voting for. The reduction will be a major step on a longer journey and it already has the support of many MPs.

Over 10 million unborn children have been killed in the UK since the passing of the Abortion Act 1967. More than 200,000 are being killed every year, and the number has been rising for some years. We look forward to the day this genocide ends, and we'll do all we can to hasten the arrival of that day.

I shall be standing as a candidate in the Bedford seat (which includes Kempston) at the next general election. Mohammad Yasin, our Labour MP, won with a majority of just 145 votes at the last general election (2019). More than a third of potential voters didn't vote in this seat in 2019, thousands more than voted for Mr Yasin.

Our manifesto is here https://cafp.uk/manifesto/, we cover the issue of abortion on pp.23-6, Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (the leading cause of mental incapacitation across the Western world) on pp.27-9, non-therapeutic male circumcision (a crime since the passing of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861) - Male Ge***al Mutilation - on pp.30,31.

You can meet me online every Sunday, 7pm, details here https://cafp.uk/drivers-drinkers-and-smokers-club/. Or meet me in person in Bedford town centre, 10am every Saturday, details here https://cafp.uk/breakfast-with-the-boss/.

If elected, I shall take only half the salary I'll be entitled to as an MP (currently £84,000 p.a.) and donate the remainder to good causes in Bedford and Kempston.

YOUR POTENTIAL SAVINGS ON VEHICLE FUEL, ALCOHOL AND TO***CO
The levels of indirect taxes on vehicle fuels, alcohol and to***co products are so punitive as to be immoral. Depending on the category, they represent 45 – 90% of selling prices. Why should drivers, drinkers and smokers pay so much more tax than others? In our manifesto (pp.76-81) we propose a halving of duties and VAT in these areas, which would lead to considerable price reductions.

Most drivers, drinkers and smokers are unaware of how much they’re paying in indirect taxes on these produicts every year. So we’ve created a ready reckoner to help you work out the figure, and in turn calculate how much you’d save every year if duties and VAT were halved. Trigger warning – the figures may startle you, but hopefully they’ll help persuade you to vote for us at the next general election. Click on the link below to reach the blog post where you'll be able to click on another link to download the ready reckoner, then enter your average weekly spend figures in column B – the calculations will be automatic.

Hello. I recently launched a new political party in Bedford, the Children & Family Party http://cafp.uk.
We’re making proposals in 21 areas in our manifesto https://cafp.uk/manifesto/
including marriage and divorce, financial support for families, children’s access to both parents following family breakdowns, abortion, non-therapeutic male circumcision (illegal in the UK since at least 1861), free sanitary products for women, 50% cuts in the duties and VAT on vehicle fuel, alcohol and to***co products… and so much more. There’s something for almost everyone in our manifesto.
We invite you to meet Mike Buchanan (party leader) online 7pm tomorrow (Sunday) evening https://cafp.uk/drivers-drinkers-and-smokers-club/
or meet him in-person for breakfast next Saturday morning 10am at the Pilgrim’s Progress pub in Bedford https://cafp.uk/breakfast-with-the-boss/
