United Kingdom: Leader of the Opposition Keir Stramer MP letter to Prime Minister Boris Johnson (25.04.2020)








The COVID-19 or Coronavirus outrbreak has broken the Fossil-Fuel Industry or the Petroleum Industry. The futures of sales on oil is crashing, the value of oil is shrinking, as the demand has gone bust within a short time. While the OPEC-Plus countries and other oil producing continued to drill oil and produce more barrels of oil. Which by all means are surplus. This means, the cost of production and the possible hitting the market at a loss.
The oil industry is hit by the lack of ordinary transport. That people are not flying, they are not using public transport or their own cars. As so many nations and republics with lockdowns. So, the demand has fallen dramatically over the last few weeks. This means the amount of drilled oil and surplus will stored, as the wholesale struggle to be traded and the ones buying need to keep it in stock. Since, the market is saturated with surplus as it is.
Why did the Oil Prices Crash:
“First, demand has been obviously decreasing as the coronavirus spreads around the world. Many countries took preventative measures including social distancing, restrictions on going out and prohibitions on international travel. This has sharply reduced demand for oil for transportation via vehicles and airplanes” (…) “Secondly, there is a technical reason. In the futures market, investors have to end the contract by doing a reverse trade by a certain expiry date, or buyers have to take physical delivery of the oil. The contract of WTI crude for May delivery, which was most actively traded, expires on Tuesday, so many investors who had bought oil rushed to sell to close the trading” (Rurika Imahashi – ‘Four things to know about the historic oil price plunge’ 21.04.2020, Asia Nikkei – Asian Review).
We can easily see and understand why we are here. There is no tourism right now. Airlines are not operating. Companies are going bonkers and people are under lockdown all across the board. Not only in one Republic, but in most. There isn’t a Kingdom, Republic or a Nation in itself, which haven’t had a lockdown or movement restriction. There are so many places where the public have been restricted.
That this industry has been hit and hard. This is only natural by the actions made by all governments and citizens following the social distancing and less travel. That is why the petroleum industry have more production, than what its actually trading. The wholesale is failing, while there is surplus in stock.
The petroleum and gasoline will be hit for a while, until the public and transportation companies uses as much as it used too before the COVID-19. The usage of cars, public transport and aviation industry too.
We are seeing a crash of industry because of how we changed quickly and how the lockdowns interfered in the usual acts of man-kind. We don’t need as much petroleum and fossil-fuel to get around. We don’t even travel within out own towns. There is just needed workers who does. The rest are based in small spaces. There already other industries hit already like Airlines, Tourism and so-on. This is a continuation of it.
The oil crash will directly hurt markets. It will not a big whoesale, as there is a lack of storage and places to put the millions of surplus barrels of oil. That is before the ones produced in the future. Peace.

There is always a moment to eat. There is never enough spoils for some. The Ugandan legislators or the Members of Parliament in the 10th Parliament always see a moment to gain more cash. The COVID-19 or Coronavirus is no different. Just another moment to short-change society.
The MPs used their Plenary Session in the midst of lockdown, the second round of lockdown is starting. That is what they are up too. Instead of finding solutions to solve the crisis or funding for the operations during the lockdown. Because the state has started a donation fund for the Emergency. They should have been concerned with the spending and where the money has come from.
Instead, they all find a way of getting fresh suits or ties. The MPs seems to be busy finding ways to cater their plate in the midst of the lockdown, instead of helping to solve the crisis itself. This advocacy fund is mismanaged. This is greedy. This is outrageous.
Here is the simple math on the 10 billion shillings Speaker Rebecca Kadaga told the world about today. Here is my calculation.
|
Amount of MPs |
Advocacy Funds |
Total: |
|
426 |
Shs. 23m |
Shs 10bn |
The MPs are giving themselves about 23 million shillings. This is simple money, they cannot campaign, cannot rally or do anything. Only pocket the funds. Because, all activity is banned. All transport and anything. They cannot stand on the street-corner like a street preacher.
No they are no allowed and therefore, the “advocacy” is useless. Unless, this is an enrichment scheme, which makes sense. They are getting more wealth, as well as they have plenary sessions. They are sitting earning funds and this way capable of getting allowance without any issues. The Parliament isn’t suspended or in recess. No, they are still active.
This is greed and nothing else. As they are asking for funds elsewhere. They are spending funds on themselves, instead of investing in health-care and medicines. Peace.





One thing is for certain. If you elect gangsters, they will make their office into racket. It is just a matter of time. Their leadership, their model and their ways will exposes by a crisis like COVID-19. The Coronavirus will show the weakness and expose the realities.
The Administration, the government will show its true face. If it is sincere, if they have policies or even if they damn care about you, the citizens. However, if you elected a gangster or accepted that they rigged themselves into office. Than, expect the worse.
Because, normally, they will issue some tenders and take some kickbacks, juice up the prices, make fake shell-companies and secure the patronage money from the state coffers. Usually, that hurts the institutions, the government and the budgets. But it doesn’t change much on the ground. As some of the services, some of the procurements are good, but that are drip drops on a faulty system anyway. There are some roads built, some maintained, but a lot to give. That is why development projects, infrastructure projects sky-rocket in price and costs, also prolonged by the gangsters who need their cut.
However, in a COVID-19 crisis, a pandemic this doesn’t work. Their years of neglect and phony contracts cannot sustain the damage, the hurt and the pain. It is occurrent and they cannot forge the paperwork. They rewrite deaths and positive tests of people, but somewhere along the line, there will be mysterious deaths. Secondly, the Hospitals, the ICU beds and ventilators cannot be faked.
Their racket, the racketeering cannot save you. Not that they sheltered the public. Not like the previous rackets or tricks of trade made a big change, but it was a make belief and rouse. It tricked the paper-tigers and surely sold a lot donors. However, the dire poverty is still as rampant. The lack of social security net and welfare state is evident. The heads of state who used their position as a racket is exposed. Their years of neglect and lack of care is now official news.
These folks, these gangster will not save you now. They will only postpone and try to salvage their hurt. They want to secure their vaults and their wealth. If they do things, its only to secure their empires and their vast resources. They will dispose those on the public, neither will they dole the public with massive gifts nor invests properly in the failing Ministry of Health. No, they will await the donors, the Multi-National Organizations, United Nations and whoever who is seeing the tragedy and hope their dime can change the equation. Even if they have dollars upon dollars stored away in unnamed bank-account in Switzerland. Because, that is what they do.
Don’t expect Gangster to save you. They are in it for the nickels and dime. By the hook or by the crook. Anything can become a racket, they just need to find the loophole and the ability to trick the situation. Don’t expect them to save you and yours. They will only patch the hurt if it benefit them in the long-run and you will repay their loyalty. If not, you will be forgotten or not mentioned. You toils, you pain, your suffering doesn’t count, because there is nothing you can repay the favour with.
That is how this is. The game is rigged, you were not expected to play, but you will still loose. It’s just like Casinos. The House cannot loose. The Gangster cannot loose either. The mobster will win. It is just a matter of time. The public will cry, the pain will be real and the death will be on the street. Don’t expect the gangster to mourn, except when the men of honour dies. Than, he will salute and shed a tear for the public. That is only a facade, as long as he reigns supreme. Peace.

There been leaks on the Officials on the Council to Re-Open America. The White House, the Trump Administration new strategic group to ensure a safeguarding the opening of the market. Opening of the Republic after lockdowns, stay-at-home-orders and whatnot. However, the promise of a expert filled and promising team of individuals are something you have to look far after.
First is the appointments of the cronies, the family members with no unique talents or skills. Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner. They are playing government and looking for the next pay-check.
Than you have Wilbur Ross, Larry Kudlow, Steve Mnuchin and Robert Lightizer, whose the money-team of the Administration. Their only concern is the market and how the economy is working. These individuals wouldn’t care if the streets was filled bodies and in a originalities state. There could be blood on the streets and vampires at night. As long as the bloodsucker’s at Wall Street and Corporate America is pocketing the mighty dollars. They wouldn’t care one minute of the toils, the depression or the devastations the citizens are going through. What matters is the bottom-line and eventual profit margins for the high and mighty.
Last person on this Council is the fourth Chief of Staff in the White House Mark Meadows, whose the right voice in the White House and Republican. Who has voted blindly for the views and for Team Trump in the House of Representatives. That is why his the man of the moment and gets appointed to this Council as well.
When people say the United States government right now is run like a Banana Republic and failed state. This sort of Council proves it. It is cronyism, patronage and nepotism blended into one Council. None of this men are qualified to follow any metrics of the pandemic. They have no education or nor skill in Health Care. This are not PHD in medics or anything. This is are economists, hawks and patrons of the President. That is why the advice these people give will be based on profits and possible kickbacks. Not, if it is wise to open the floodgates or not.
This is the proof of how mismanaged and rotten DC is at the moment. As Ivanka and Jared will be part of a team, whose sole objective is find excuses to re-open United States. To find solutions and ways to get the states to stop their lockdowns and stay-home orders. Since, this is the initial plan. To figure out a way to solve the crisis and reconfigure the failing economy. The unemployment and the rising poverty. Which is caused by the closure, the pandemic and the lack of proper planning ahead of the crisis. That is a screw-up, this administration did all on it s own and now the same cadres supposed to issue attempts to change that.
The governors has put these orders in place and are following state rules doing so. They are doing it by all means to stagger the COVID-19 by all means they have. While the White House has acted as a cheerleader, back-up and not as Federal Government. They have been on the back-burner. However, when it comes to financial objectives, not the health of its citizens. Then they suddenly want to act like a Federal Body and have a Council who put in place needed advice and guidelines for the state. Which is rich, as they are back-up and have their own stockpile, which is not for the states.
We have learned a lot since January 2020 about the lack of preparation, not taking warnings. Not acting rational. Not following advice and dismantling Obama’s Pandemic Team within the White House, because everything Obama gives Trump the Heebie-jeebies and therefore, he got shut it down.
We are now seeing the team of nepotism, patronage and cronyism in full effect. Don’t expect magic, don’t expect any results and only more hurt. These people are all there for the praise and glory of the President. Also for another pay-check, but that is it. Peace.

It was bound to happen, at one point I had to write a piece like this. Just to clear my mind, as the reflections of my windows get boring. The COVID-19 Special Reports, the deaths, the recovered, the contagious disease continues to spread and I’m self-quarantined by the authorities and my employers. Well, that is all good for now, but it makes a brother reflect on life. As I have been in this state for 30 days or about a month.
I know we have seen pictures of P.Diddy, Puff Daddy or Diddy where he turns a lot older than he usually does. I am sure many more looks older now. Because, they don’t have the team around them to give them make-up and fresh new clothes straight from the factory.
However, for the most of us. The days goes in checking emails, the twitter feed and Facebook feed. Listening to the news, talking to the close family and friends. Keeping in touch and letting the day go by. While the numbers are rising. More death, more horror and a worry of a second wave. While states, nations and whatnot plans to open up. We are looking wonder, who will be caught in the second wave, as the old people’s home is so hardly hit in the first wave and God knows who will be next in line. As doctors, nurses and front-line workers are catching it or even in quarantine themselves.
This is not easy times. The mind rumbles. The questions remains, as we don’t have vaccine, nor any sufficient medicine to cure this disease. We can think that the spoils of the American President and other gutsy people has the tricks. But then again, we would fool ourselves or let us be fooled by another fool.
Just like the people hooked on the 5G thingy, that is the same peddlers who are selling vitamin-cures to heal your skull, your dildos and whatnot. The same folks who sold Pizzagate and went mayhem on Clinton’s emails. However, the same folks will not cry loud for the thousands of dead because of the lack of preparation and concern about the virus itself. That is just so rich.
The headlines, the drama and the diplomatic squabble are bound to happen. The lack of funds, the stolen allocated funds, the ghost foundations and everything is bound to happen. The ghost workers and the grand corruption, as there was no transparency with COVID-19 Funds. There was no clear oversight nor care to look over the transfers of funds. Only spending because there was a dire need, not even look into tenders or reasons for procurement of needed goods too.
It is all just clear magic, the magicians in office using the space to enrich themselves on a tragedy. The death, the failure of state and the lack of protocol. The staring darkness of it all. While we are told to be hopeful. Be giddy and be cautious. Wash our hands, social distance and listen to guidance. However, we should still be woke.
These people who has power, needs to be regulated and questioned. They shouldn’t automatically get a pass, because of a pandemic. Yes, there is need for new measures and security of life. That is understood. However, that doesn’t mean they have a “free for all” or can “burn bridges” to secure wealth for post-COVID. We all see that.
This is a quarantine memo. It doesn’t have any answers, but just thoughts. Which you can either take as good or dismiss. However, be woke, ask questions and ask yourself if you see it as right. But remember, common sense needs to be common. Peace.
