WE BOW TO THE FUTURE

It was an interesting moment when traveling by train in Japan, the person who I assumed was the Station Master would walk to the end of the platform and bow to the train as it left the station and he also bowed to the approaching train as it arrived at the station.  Interestingly this honoring of the train was was a tradition of the railways as they grew out from the business that ran the horse drawn carriages across the Country which the trains had replaced over the years.

Interestingly at Buckingham Palace, Princess Anne recently was said to have locked the staff room door and addressed the palace staff and explained that we don’t bow to people, we bow to the future.  This was brought about by an  incident where one of the palace staff had looked Princess Catherine in the eye and failed to bow so we have been told.  We don’t know who the staff member was but Princess Anne explained the rules to the staff and fired the delinquent staffer on the spot and cleaned out some other of the Palace Staff who seem to have lost the plot as there appears to have been a splintering within the household between loyalty to Princess Catherine and the New Queen; who would know and I don’t want to spread rumors but this would indicate where the real power lies.

At this point I would have to agree with Princess Anne who is making sure that we maintain our standards of behaviour.  Respect comes in all sorts of forms, as us respecting each other and our society is how we measure loyalty and how we bond together.  There was once a time when the local policeman was held in great respect or was that just fear in our community, then we combined the transport/traffic police with the everyday policeman on the beat.  That was a big part of the beginning of the lowering of the standards of trust the public have in our police, as policing the road rules have become laws of the land in themselves.  From this move our society have seen a rising of crime and the disconnect of the actual police with the public.  This has lead to the police becoming an arm of the parliament rather than the police operating under the Crown as we are citizens rather than Royal Subjects as are the people of England.  So the police here are expected to interrupt the local rules as laws now rather than ensuring we have consistent standards rather than a varying set of standards which jump from one moment to the next according to Government flip. flops.  I’m surprised that we are never shown signs telling us to respect the roads, which are a mess and respect the speed limits which are all over the place as they are hoping to make our lives on the roads as complicated as possible in the interests of raising money for the Government by often catching unsuspecting citizens who in their option have failed in that moment of time to register new changes to rules which they interrupt as laws now which any Subject would be expected to adhere too anyway yet we are citizens and have rights and privileges which are being trampled on day by day.

The recent public outrage that has occurred with the standing down of an Assistant Police Commissioner in Auckland has exposed a rather large sore at the head of the Country’s modern integrated Police which is so much part of the police now so it’s hard to see how the police will be able to drag themselves up by their boot straps to a position where they can earn the public’s respect again without Government moving the headquarters of the Police out of Auckland, where anything goes as has occurred in the Police Force there.  Of course this corruption started some time ago and the Police Commissioner during the last Government saw the final nail become hammered into their reputation when the Government used them to support the lawless requirements of their Political masters who also seemed to now be based in Auckland.  I see that the former Police Commissioner has taken up a new Government role and should have never been considered for a civilian post it appears, he has now resigned.  The phrase good riddance to bad rubbish comes immediately to mind.  It is good to see he was stood down as the scandal started swirling around the Top Cops mostly in Auckland as it blows up into a storm which has the power to blow down a number of houses.  I’m please to hear that Princess Anne has stepped in, in Buckingham Palace to enforce the rule of standards amongst their Subjects.  Our watching the political shenanigans here trying to keep their pants on in this police scandal looks like a lost cause and perhaps they should separate off the Traffic Police into their own area as they try to make drivers control cars within laws which don’t recognise the performance standards to which today we make cars perform or build our roads to suit.  I personally bow down to Jesus Christ and don’t have an issue there but to bow before the Law or the others is pushing the ‘boat’ out too far today, but I happily offer respect to other citizens where they earn that through their words and deeds.

Perhaps Breaking up the Courts also to reflect the need to allow Judges to up their game without having to bother with mundane traffic issues.  If the doctors require their science to be followed that could also be placed under the purview of the traffic police who would also undertake helping in times of public unrest as our parliament seem incapable of understanding public concerns when they get it so wrong as they did during the phony pandemic of a few years ago earning our ire and to help in our declining respect for them, as we are not their Subjects by any stretch.
