Zeitgeist: The Rebuttal

2009-12-11T15:09:00.000Z

In the interests of balance, I wanted to put up this rebuttal from Alex Jones. Now, I do not assume that Alex is the font of all knowledge, his opinion is just that: another opinion. Having heard him on ClimateGate, I feel he is doing what he does well, which is a deeper analysis.

This adds to the debate and allows you to look at this from a different standpoint.

Enjoy.

An Inconvenient Truth?

2009-12-11T11:27:00.000Z

Oh dear.

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.

In this short video we have the testimony of a scientist doing what scientists ought to be doing. Simple, repeatable experiments, with all bias removed, no financial incentive, and no politics.

The results are open, honest, dependable and defendable.

See what happens when you look for the truth?

I seriously doubt that this video will be shown to the Climatechangeologists in Copenhagen.

There is no money in it. No big houses, no prime time TV slots, no army of mongs bowing down before you, no gullible politicians desperate to leave some sort of "legacy".

H/T to Spidey for this remarkable find.

Zeitgeist: Addendum

2009-12-09T21:54:00.001Z

I think that part of my "job" with this blog is to educate, or at the very least, point you to sites or videos that can and will open your eyes a little wider, and cause connections to be made, or dots to be joined. But mostly, I would hope, it offers some practical advice so that you can end the status quo. Believe me folks, the directions we are given by the selected, elected, and unelected, lead nowhere.

In this remarkable video the hard work has already been done. All you have to do is watch.

Please try to set aside some time to watch it. It really is a mind-opener.

It is a horror movie, (the first hour, anyway), but it ends well.

It certainly beats that manufactured news or X Factor on the telly box.

Give it a go, it may change your life. It will certainly change your useless MP's life.

If you are happy to be manipulated for the rest of your life, move along, there is nothing for you here.

Delusions

2009-12-09T01:03:00.000Z

I popped over to Lawful Rebellion as I noticed that they had a new article posted. I listened, with growing fascination to their interview with Marc Stevens and I wanted to learn more about Marc, what he had been up to, and how he had gathered the jaw-dropping facts that he mentioned during the podcast.

I wandered around his site like a kid in a sweetshop. I discovered a man called Lysander Spooner, (he died in 1887) who had written some stunning works on the American Constitution. You can find the writings of Lysander Spooner here.

If you are an American reading this I would urge you to prepare for several shocks as you watch the videos (there are 7 in total) because Marc destroys myth after myth after myth about your lovely country, your venerated Constitution and he even explains why you have no rights. It isn't all doom and gloom. Marc also goes on to tell you why you need never pay income tax ever again. So, it is a little bit Karmic. Compensation and retribution. Or, if that doesn't fry your bacon, how about "no pain, no gain?"

For the rest of us Euro-peeps, the videos are fascinating, and we should all watch them. "Why?", you may ask, "What bearing does it have on me?"

And I would answer thusly:

Who do you imagine it was that guided the Founding Fathers?

No tin-foil hats required. Marc Stevens deals only in facts.

Watch these videos only if you wish to wave goodbye to some incredibly powerful delusions.

All credit to Matt, Richy and David for ensuring that the practical advice Marc offers, (should you wish to be awoken), reaches as many ears as possible. Thank you lads.

We have the same charade played out here in the ex-UK day after day, by the same characters. The only difference is that we have been playing the game, just as unwittingly, for a damn sight longer. If you wonder why we all play along, be sure to watch the videos.

The podcast is the aperitif, the videos are the main meal.

Just what will you do after dinner?

Get ready for a mind adjustment. Your reality is about to change. If it doesn't, you weren't listening.

PS-The full length video is on Marc's website but it was very stop/starty for me, so I looked for it on YT. They are in 10 minute chunks.

State Of The Nation

2009-12-07T12:14:00.000Z

This speech, given in the EU chamber of horrors, has become one of my all time favourites. Dan Hannan pulls no punches while Gordoom sits and grins inanely, reminiscent of Dubya's limited facial expressions.

I'm no economist but even I know that when my bank account is running low, or empty, I stop spending. I cut out waste, and I cut out luxuries. Borrowing money is the last thing on my mind. Gordo thinks differently. He keeps borrowing, and why not? It isn't his money he is wasting, it's ours. He continues to fund fake charities, he continues to send £60 million a day to his masters in Brussels, who are simply the best when it comes to wasting money, and he continues to fund quangos to the tune of £18 billion per year. He is on self-destruct. He must know, as do we all, that Labour will begin the wilderness years next May. His reaction? Instigate a scorched earth policy. Just like that WMD mastermind, Saddam Hussein, he will destroy as much as he can, as quickly as he can. Were he a responsible man, a principled man, a man with one iota of honour, he would leave the nation in a state that gives the incoming government the best chance to put things right. He consistently proves that he is without honour, he is without integrity and he is without morals or ethics.

Despite being told that scientists have lied about climate change/global warming/global cooling for years and years, he will commit even more of our money on the myth. Ask any scientist that doesn't have a dog in the race and they will tell you that whilst we must take care of our environment, the planet is not doomed, not yet, anyway. The only scientists running around shouting "The sky is falling! The sky is falling!" are those whose mortgage repayments depend on the sky falling. Greed can bend a man's mind, and like the scientists involved with the second hand smoke swindle, that greed becomes all-consuming. I watched, with a steadily dropping jaw as study after study was pumped out and just like the climate agenda, the cause was noble and just, but the studies were based on lies. If your foundation is constructed of lies, everything that follows is in doubt. The filthy lucre is vastly more important than the truth. Science will take decades to recover because of the dishonest, greedy fabricators, and I for one disbelieve every single one of them. Until, at least, I have checked out the money trail. Who is paying for this or that study, and what is in it for them? Facts, I have discovered, can lean either way. Whenever I see someone dancing to a particular tune, I look at the piper and ask, "Who is paying you for this gig?". The answers are unsurprising. Vested interests abound, and if we are not careful, this will cost our children dearly. We have a responsibility to put things right.

Do I have an answer, a magic bullet to put it all right again?

I have one answer, and it revolves around just one word: change.

We have to change the way we are governed, and we have to change who we are governed by. The first step is file for a divorce from the EU, in my opinion. Once we are out, we can take stock. We will free up billions of £££'s that can and should, be better spent. As previously stated on this very blog, I would like to see a Libertarian Party government but they need more time. Time to grow, time to root themselves in our psyche, and they need to make a name for themselves. An LPUK government next May would be, I feel, a little too much for Joe & Jane Public. We have been oppressed and repressed for far too long. The freedoms the LPUK have on offer would overwhelm us. I believe UKIP are the only real opposition to the LibLabCon. They intend to peel back the layers and let us experience our hard won, hard fought freedoms again. After five years of this, the UK, (no longer known as Regions 1 to 9), will be ready for yet more relaxations, more freedoms, more personal responsibility. We need to know that we are not just cogs in a machine, and we need to know that we are not cash cows to be milked and milked and milked until we are drier than the Sahara.

We deserve better. We deserve less restriction, not more. Having listened hard to the talking heads, and having read the newsletters I get, I know that the transition from Labour to the Conservatives will be absolutely seamless. Same ol' same ol'. Nothing new, nothing changes. Broken promises will follow broken promises and we will try, but we will not be able to spot the difference. Because we will be looking for something that isn't there. Labour wouldn't listen, ever, and the Tories, knowing for sure that we want an in/out referendum, have already stopped listening. The LibDems are meaningless, the BNP have a radical manisfesto, the Greens just became the biggest joke in politics, and that leaves us with limited choices.

Think hard. Since 1922 we have voted for the Reds or the Blues. Some were good governments and some were bad. I am struggling to think of a government that was ever as bad as the current one. Their successors look likely to be Call Me Dave's crew, and sadly, they haven't convinced me that things can only get better. Same guys, different coloured ties.

The EU monster is the first problem. If we slay that one, we will be on the road to recovery. Radical rethinking on spending is the second priority, and any government that can do these things, whilst repealing many thousands of statutes that we simply do not need, will get my vote.

If we don't force change, we will have to revert to Plan B.

Plan B may take several generations to implement though.

This is the plan:

"Swear allegiance to the flag ...
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel
Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still"

The question you need to answer is this: Do we have the years that Plan B needs?

A short educational video from Jordan Maxwell.

Have a wee gander. It may help you to appreciate that you are worth a fortune.

And just because Jordan explains it from an American stand-point, please don't imagine that it is any different here.

It's not.

This is a global deception.

It may also explain why our governments are terrified that this information will hit the mainstream. They don't care that you know the truth, particularly, just that you will use the knowledge to switch off the endless flow of moolah to them.

No conspiracies here, remember? Just different truths.

Land Ahoy!

2009-12-05T15:02:00.002Z

First, a little bragging, then a recap, a disclaimer, a cut & paste from Lawful Rebellion, and finally, a conclusion.

My blog entry entitled Theft Report was read by many, many thousands of people. This came as a huge surprise to me as my little blog has been bimbling along with a small, but growing band of regular readers. It showed me that we have an awesome weapon in the internet, and if you are lucky enough to be linked to by some of our countries finest bloggers, as I was, then the story spreads fast. I want to thank each and every blogger that pointed people my way. Things have settled down again now but I appear to have picked up around 100 additional regulars. The spike was incredible and you can see it for yourself if you scroll all the way down and click on Sitemeter on the bottom left of this page.

Since we have a sizeable number of newbies, I thought a recap was in order. This will save you reading all my posts since April. Essentially, the story is this: all statutes, Bills, Acts, and statutory instruments are Laws Of The Water. These statutes are not laws, they are given force only if the governed consent to them. ("Consent" is the key word, and you will read it here often). Common Law is the Law Of The Land. Nobody, no government, no administration, not even God himself, can revoke, change, amend, or remove those laws. They are natural laws, they are inherent, and we all know them. Just so that we are all dancing around the same handbag, they are as follows: do not cause, harm, injury or loss to a fellow human, and do not make mischief with your contracts (fraud). Since around 1100 AD many millions of statutes have appeared on the rolls. In just the last 12 years alone we have seen a staggering 3923 new statutes and statutory instruments imposed on Britons. Thanks to providence, fate, luck or destiny, (call it what you will), I found several sites encouraging people to think hard about who and what they were, and to investigate becoming a Freeman On The Land. I studied the subject for many months, and dived deeper in the law (both statutory and common) than any man ought to. I discovered that almost everything I had been taught was a lie. Not your basic three R's, but just about everything else. More importantly, I discovered that there was a plethora of things that I was NOT taught. The difference between legal and lawful was a revelation in itself. How wealth (more accurately, debt) was created, caused me many sleepless nights. Other websites and fora call it the Grand Deception, and I was shocked and stunned once I dug deeper. Similarities with the movie "The Matrix" were not as exaggerated as I first thought. We really have no clue. We are utterly ignorant, and I was ashamed at how much I didn't know. Having spent time in over 70 countries on our planet, I had considered myself to be well travelled, and as an avid reader of newspapers and magazines, and my ability to do well when answering questions (in my living room) while watching "Millionaire", University Challenge", and "Mastermind" (when it was aired), I thought myself to be reasonably well informed, and, if I'm honest, a bit of a smart-arse. So, with a lot more thinking, and soul searching, I decided to uncouple myself from the matrix and declare myself to be a Freeman. In the 12th century, a Freeman was important. He wasn't beholden to anyone for anything, he had risen above serfdom, and could roam the land free and clear. He could, in short, come and go as he pleased. I wanted some of that. So, using what some would describe as arcane and ancient law, I stepped back onto the land on 15th June 2009. Apart from the sense of freedom I felt, and it was tremendous, it didn't mean much to the machine of government. In point of fact, it means worlds to them. It frightens them, and rightfully so. Everything Freemen do is honourable, and, just as importantly, it is lawful. Which means that there is nothing they can do to stop me. Nothing whatsoever. In reality, what they do is ignore me. To ignore sworn affidavits is dishonourable. These words may not mean much to the readers of this blog, but in the world of law, like so many other words, they take on a whole new meaning. Remaining honourable is paramount. I am now a Freeman, and I am determined to remain on the land as much as I possibly can until I take my last breath. Because I am a Freeman, and I have a choice, I will step into Commerce when it suits me to do so. This is not hypocrisy, this is free will. I am merely exercising my freedom to choose. I am routinely accused, falsely, of being a freeloader, or worse, an anarchist. Neither are true, and if you take a close look at libertarianism, you will find that if I deserve a label, it is that I am a libertarian.

Belated edit: I should have explained that we live in two different worlds. In one world, we are known as the people we are. We are human beings, and we think, we feel, we see, we hear, we eat, we sleep and we dream. In the other world we are a fiction. We are Strawmen and legally, we are fictional. Strawmen do not see because they have no eyes. Strawmen do not hear because they have no ears. Strawmen cannot sign papers because they have no arms, hands, or a brain to direct them. We assume that we are one and the same, but we are not. Freemen make the distinction by divorcing themselves from their Strawmen or their legal fictions. The Controllers do not like this. They cannot deal with sentient beings, only faceless companies and/or soulless corporations, which is exactly what our Strawman represents.

The disclaimer. I do not profess to be an expert, I am not a lawyer, and I am not giving advice. I am merely pointing you towards one version of the truth that exists in my new world. This route is not for everyone, and it certainly should not be followed without some serious thought and complete understanding. If you are in any doubt at all, the thing to do is to stop, learn a little more, and at all times proceed with extreme caution. If you make a mistake, or do not fully comprehend what you are doing, chaos awaits. Tread carefully, and all will be well.

This is a new path. It was always there but it was cleverly hidden in plain sight. Recently I have been discussing the "movement" with the people over at Lawful Rebellion and they offer, freely, some fantastic explanations, and, if you want them, some guidelines to follow. What follows is a new form of affidavit, and it contains a power the like of which you will rarely come across. In effect, you enter into a lawfully binding agreement with Gordon Brown, and when he is ousted, as he surely must be, with his successors. I urge you to visit the site, and read it in toto, but before you head over there, read this:

"Folks, Affidavits work because in law, they override everything else that comes before them. Affidavits offer the Facts, Harmony and maybe more importantly when it comes to law, the Agreement of the parties. Whilst of course the legal world offers only lies and falsehoods".

Your completed affidavit will contain information like this:

The Affiant is a private, living and sentient man.
The Affiant is not a UNITED KINGDOM “citizen,” “subject,” “vessel” or “person” or any ens legis artificial entity, procedural phantom, legal fiction or juristic personality within the UNITED KINGDOM.
Affiant is foreign to and without the UNITED KINGDOM.
Any party that would order, represent or persuade the Affiant to falsely present the Affiant as a UNITED KINGDOM citizen, vessel or person directly or by deception, device, misnomer, mistaken identity, warrant or indictment, real or imagined, would be engaging in Enticement to Slavery.
Any party that alleges a liability against the Affiant is obligated to produce an Affidavit of Liability to demonstrate such liability.
The Affiant is not liable to or for any Government statutes, rules and/or codes, including, without limitation, UNITED KINGDOM Codes and statutes and/or codes of any of Respondents’ political subdivisions.
A legal fiction corporation cannot secure in personam jurisdiction over or against Affiant, a living man, without Affiant’s voluntary election to submit.
The Affiant’s use of a notary public, Bank of England Promissory Notes, and/or any other public facilities, when alternatives are generally unavailable, does not comprise Affiant’s submission to any political jurisdiction, the creation of an adhesion contract expressly or tacitly with the UNITED KINGDOM and/or any other party real or imagined, or an appearance before any body or tribunal, administrative or judicial, real or imagined.
It would be both a violation of law and a violation of the Affiant’s God given unalienable rights if any government/corporative agent, officer or employee attempts to, or does in-fact, force, coerce, manipulate and/or deceive the Affiant into receiving any form of medical treatment at anytime whatsoever, including but not limited to vaccinations.
All words herein are as Affiant defines them.

Your completed affidavit will look different as you will have added your autograph and had it attested to by a Notary Public.

In conclusion, for now, I would ask that you ponder these things:

If you are happy to continue forking over between 50-80% of your hard earned money to the government, lawful rebellion is not for you.

If you are satisfied that the courts offer justice, lawful rebellion is not for you.

If you have no desire to learn the difference between lawful and legal, lawful rebellion is not for you.

If you are convinced that banks and bankers merely lubricate, but do not lie, plot and scheme, lawful rebellion is not for you.

If you think that your government sees you as anything other than a cash cow, lawful rebellion is not for you.

If you are happy to be spied upon, tagged, vaccinated, milked, and controlled to the Nth degree, lawful rebellion is not for you.

If you are absolutely sure that your government or the judiciary tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, then lawful rebellion is definitely not for you.

For the others amongst us that feel that lawful rebellion is a viable, if not the only option, then hie yourselves over to the site embedded in the title.

It may be the smartest thing you ever did.

Eyes Wide Shut

2009-12-03T19:42:00.000Z

Bloody typical.

I write nothing about this sordid business and then find all sorts of good stuff.

Thanks to Daniel1979 we can have a closer look at the emails surrounding ClimateGate, or if you prefer, How To Rig The Science And Keep The Taxpayers Money Flooding In.

The full report is 43 pages of gold-dust to sensible people.

In other news from Watts Up With That we learn that Al Gore (inventor of the interweb, saviour of the planet, and all round good egg) has cancelled his plans to speak at the Copenhagen ClimateShite Fest. OK, OK, it's not called that. It's called COP15. I like my conference title better.

Meanwhile, over at EUReferendum we learn that "the science is clear and settled". This bollocks was uttered by that embarrassing little man, Ed Millibland. Now, having looked hard at the way science works, the one thing I know for sure is that the science is never "settled". Not on anything. Not ever.

Oh, and for those of you that pop in for Freeman related stuff, fear not. We will resume shortly. Progress is slow because I want it to be. I am at pains to express how important it is not to leap in without a full arsenal. I don't mind if I crash and burn, but I will not drag any good people down with me because I got it wrong. Slowly slowly catchee monkey.

ClimateShite

2009-12-03T14:06:00.002Z

The title gives away which side I am on.

I haven't done anything on this subject because many others do it so much better. Thanks to the manky bandaged one we can see all we need to see in 40 minutes.

I won't pull any punches here. These people lie. They do it all the time because they are paid to lie. If they told the truth they would be out of a job. In fact, we should prosecute the bastards for falsifying reports paid for by the public. Billions of £££'s are thrown their way each and every year by gullible, headline-seeking governments around the world.

They used the same modus operandi for demonising smokers and second hand smoke. They lie as well. They lie everywhere and all the time. Why? Because it ensures the funding flow. Make no mistake: all this is-when you boil it down-is greed. Pure, unadulterated greed.

You may have see that Attenborough documentary where that poor darling polar bear swims off out to sea to look for a juicy seal for dinner. The bear, as we discover, with all the attendant drama, is going the wrong way. To Attenborough, this signified the end of the world as we know it, and it's all our fault, we nasty humans.

I just saw one confused bear fuck off in the wrong direction. Nothing more, nothing less. Darwinism kicked in, as it always will.

And before the Polar Bear Protection Front writes in to condemn me roundly, you should know this: I like polar bears. I was worried back in '75 when there was only 5,000 of them left. I am less concerned now because there are more than 25,000 of the big buggers running around. They discovered humping. Good for them. Oh yes, they also discovered bins in Palinland. Here's a tip: don't throw away anything that smells nice to a one ton bear and they will soon get the message.

A word of warning to you sick Greenies as well. I recycle. I do not litter. (On the contrary, I pick shit up and put it in the bins provided, despite the funny looks people give me). I find it impossible to believe that 7 billion souls can inhabit a planet and do no damage. We can lessen the damage by using some common sense, but what you numpties want is for first world countries to halt any advancement in technology, and for those poor bastards in emerging nations to arrest any and all development right now, goddamnit! And that is not on. Emerging nations generally, in my humble opinion, leap-frog technologies so that they don't make the same mistakes we did. Who are we to deny them the right to advance? That you are greedy bastards is moot, but playing God? Fuck off. Sharpish.

I clearly remember the ozone shit you lot spouted. It kept you all in a job and paid your mortgages for at least 20 years. That problem went away, did it not? We have a self-repairing atmosphere and it did exactly what it says on the tin. Yes, I know we removed CFC's from aerosols and fridges, and that made a massive difference. But the point remains: it was never as serious as you said. You lied as well.

Now we are stuck with these shitty light bulbs that are almost as dim as you are. For years you freaks campaigned to get rid of mercury and then wham!, you suddenly approve of light bulbs containing the very substance you wanted rid of! So when we dump these bulbs, because they don't last forever, you lying fucks, we simply poison the earth again. Nice job. Got any other bright ideas?

Of course you have. And I am sure you will be whining about them any day now.

My (general) summary, because I am in a rantiful mood:

Climate change-pile of shite. Cease and desist. It is costing us a fortune. Money we don't have to burn.

Second hand smoke "scare"-pile of shite. Cease and desist. All it does is keep mentally damaged people in work. Section them instead. It will save us oodles.

Smoking ban-pile of shite. Cease and desist. All it does is ensure that 53 pubs a week shut down.

Charities paid by the government to advise the government-pile of shite. Cease and desist. AND we want our money back.

Binge-drinking crisis-pile of shite. Cease and desist.By all means punish the harm-doers, but FFS, leave the rest of us alone.

Islamification of Britain-pile of shite. Cease and desist. If they want shariah law they can fuck off back to a country where that is carried out.

Political correctness-pile of shite. Cease and desist. Mind you, (or should that be Mind EU?) we are going to be exposed to unheard of stupidity now. Can't wait.

Quangos-pile of shite. Cease and desist. Busywork and vote-securing. No more, no less.

Afghanistan-pile of shite. Cease and desist. The Russians lost that one. We will lose as well. Get our sons and daughters home. Find your oil/heroin elsewhere.

There. I just saved the country billions.

Next!

Be Still My Beating Heart

2009-12-02T12:01:00.001Z

So, our Brave New World was unveiled yesterday.

No fireworks, no street parties, no announcements on the telly-box, no letters shoved through the door, no parades, no backslapping, no high-fiving.

In fact, for a country that officially joined a community of nations with a population of just over 500 million souls, the day was remarkable for just how little attention this historic day received. I have been wondering why.

Human beings are very predictable. When we achieve a great thing, we generally shout about it. We did good, dammit! And we want to share the good news with all and sundry. Yet here we are, Day Two as Europeans and......nothing.

Yesterday we were all awarded dual citizenship. We are Europeans first, and hell, I don't know, Region Niners, or whatever Region # you ended up as, second. Anyhoo, we are all equal now. Allegedly.

Since this is about Things I Did Not See, I wanted to mention a couple of other things that weren't immediately noticeable in this awesome, historic, level playing field we all inhabit now.

Frinstance:

My smokes didn't plummet in price to match those in the Slovak Republic (£1.30p for 20), or those in Latvia (£2.01p for 20) or even those in Greece (£2.88p for 20).

Prostitution is not suddenly legal here, as it is in Germany.

Marijuana cannot be consumed openly as it can be in the Netherlands.

Beer is not suddenly reduced in price to match Bulgaria where half a litre costs just £1.10p.

New car prices were not slashed by 25% to match French prices.

I won't bore you to death with an exhaustive list, but you get the picture, right?

So despite the fact that there was no immediate price equalisation, and no sudden relaxation of, frankly, infantile statutes, there should still have been headlines trumpeting this life-changing day. No broadcast from the monarch who stood by and gave our country away. No bragging from the politico's about the great thing they did, without, naturally, a mandate from the people.

No. Mention. Whatsoever. There was nothing. Zip. Zero. Nada.

Conclusions? Are we ashamed? Are we embarrassed? Did we do something dirty, something underhand, something furtive?

It would appear so. Good ol' reliable human nature kicks in again when we do something that we are not proud of, we slink, we hide, we down-play the event, and the very last thing we do is go on telly and shout "Look what we did!".

We just got married to 26 other countries. At least with my marriage there is an escape clause. When I die, or my ~~wife~~ ~~partner~~ significant other dies, the marriage is ended. Not so with the shotgun wedding that took place yesterday. There is no such clause. The sun will never set on this unholy union. Even Unkie Adolph put a time limit on his Third Reich. He generously allowed that it would continue for 1,000 years.

No such luck for us. We are in this forever, Citizens.

Surely we should celebrate that?

It's not every day we get shackled to a corrupt regime, hell bent on wasting trillions of euros.

It's not every day we get to swear allegiance to unelected, overpaid megalomaniacs.

It's not everyday we demote a monarch.

It's not every day that we learn that in order to be heard, to request changes from the Commission, all we have to do is gather one million signatures.

It's not every day we give our nation away.

The silence is deafening.

UKIP Or More Of The Same?

2009-11-30T22:20:00.000Z

The choice is yours.

I hadn't intended to ring UKIP's bell, but having listened to Lord Pearson, and given the reaction to my previous post "Theft Report", it seems appropriate. Fault his reasoning, if you can. Tell me that this party is not our salvation, if you can. No other party makes the same promises. No other party makes sense anymore, to me at least. My preference, in point of fact, would be a parliament led by Chris Mounsey and the LPUK, but they say they have a lot of work to do to get there.

By way of a follow-up to yesterdays post, I have embedded the Lisbon Treaty in my title. I have now read it twice. For those who think it is peppered with legalese, rest easy. It is not. It demands careful reading though because it is peppered with cognitive dissonance. You also need to remember several things: this document is a contract. There is not a fair contract in anyone's possession anywhere on earth. Not one. Ask a contract lawyer. Contracts favour the authors, not the people they are purportedly written for or about. This contract, between 27 diverse nations, is no different. Remember too, as you work your way down the 294 pages, that there are many references to the earlier contracts such as the Treaty of Rome, the Treaty of Maastricht, the Treaty of Nice and the Treaty of Amsterdam. Far from overwriting those earlier treaties, they encompass whole swathes of the earlier writings.

This bastard union has been many years in the making, and we are affected by it every single day, we have been since as long ago as 1974. The last 13 years have been particularly brutal as Labour shat out EU statutes at a rate of just over one per day when parliament was in session. 2822 statutes. Just how many of those do you imagine your elected MP/MSP/Ass Member actually read? My guess would be a big fat zero. Very few people, and I include the Minister for Europe in this statement, have actually read this treaty.

If you haven't read this document before, you should. At midnight it becomes your bible. Sadly, it holds nothing soothing, just gibberish that combines Union Law with unelected and unaccountable zealots in Brussels and Strasbourg, which, when blended, become a nightmarish, Orwellian future for 500 million ignorant souls.

If you lose the will to live around page 26, struggle on, like I did. Twice. Your life is about to change for the foreseeable future, thanks to these pages. You might as well know what's in 'em.

That something wicked that was this way coming?

It's here.

Theft Report

2009-11-29T17:00:00.001Z

This actually falls under pre-crime, because the theft will not take place until 00:01 hours, Tuesday 1st December 2009.

It is a notable theft and bears reporting. Many others have tried, and failed, to obtain police action. Politicians have been asked, and in turn, they have ignored our questions, and our documented demands that they cease and desist. Not surprising, when you learn that it is the politicians themselves that will aid and abet in the theft.

What will be taken?

A few small items. Items that we have had in our possession for around a thousand years. Antiques, then? Well, sort of. These particular ancient items are truly priceless. Countless numbers of people have died, have been imprisoned, and had their lives ruined in the obtaining and in the retaining of these precious items. We thought that they were safe, we thought we would keep them forever, but a group of mindless, thoughtless, greedy and inept people, charged with their safekeeping went to great lengths to ensure that the theft will take place.

Item 1.

Habeas corpus ad subjiciendum. Latin for "you may hold the body subject to examination". This undeniable right protects one from the state. Whilst it is in place, no-one can lock you away without having solid lawful reasons to do so. Today, if you believe that you have been incarcerated and no evidence supports that incarceration, you can demand a Writ of Habeas Corpus from the court. The court will then examine evidence that you should be gaoled, remanded, or sectioned. You might also be interested to learn that once habeas corpus is gone you can be incarcerated for up to eight months without charge. This item will be stolen just after midnight on Monday 30th November 2009.

Item 2.

Courts de jure. Latin for "courts by jury". Today we have some 70 courts in our land geared for jury trials. On Tuesday morning your right to be judged by a jury of your peers evaporates completely. All magistrates courts are now companies with limited liability. They are, for want of a better term, places of business. Justice is not dispensed. A negotiation takes place. Crown courts will now become de facto courts. Same stage, same actors, same anticipated outcome. You will part with money, or your freedom, based on the whim or the mood, of one man or one woman. This item will be stolen just after midnight on Monday 30th November 2009.

Item 3.

Innocent until proven guilty. On Tuesday morning we start playing a whole new game whereby you, the accused, are guilty until you can prove your innocence. Our age old method under Common Law is dumped without ceremony and we revert instead to a mix of Napoleonic and Roman Law. Instead of having to convince 12 good men and true (15 in Scotland) that you are innocent, you now have to prove to one man or one woman that you are not guilty. This item will be stolen just after midnight on Monday 30th November 2009.

Item 4.

Loss of sovereignty. We are an ancient civilisation. People inhabited this land thousands of years before the Egyptians issued the tenders for pyramid building. Countless lives have been lost defending our little island. It had been a mecca for those wanting to live unfettered lives. Until now. Those immigration gates were flung wide and we invited in that Trojan horse, not filled with soldiers but with people intent on taking, taking, taking for themselves. Hundreds of thousands, millions, arrived under Labours watch, not to better themselves per se, but to help themselves to benefits we pay for. As I have previously stated on this blog, all are welcome. If they are prepared to work. The plan, masterminded by those fools in parliament, appears now to have been a deliberate act to dilute us, to weaken us, to take away inalienable rights, and give the immigrants more rights than naturalised Britons. Under the EU our sovereignty is dead and buried. No more English, no more Scots, no more Irish, no more Welsh. We are all european now. This item will be stolen just after midnight on Monday 30th November 2009.

Item 5.

Democracy. From the Greek demokratia-power to the people. The first democratically elected parliament was De Montforts in England in 1265. We shared this method of rule with others, and it spread. Many authoritarian systems have been toppled only to have democracy established. On Tuesday morning we give away this unique method of rule for an oligarchy. Mandarins in Europe are not elected. They are selected. No previous experience is required. Which is handy if you are a (well connected) imbecile. Fat salary, fat pension, fat chance of actually having to work for a living like the proles. Arguably, because of their vastly diminished responsibilities, we have no need for a parliament, no need of the traitorous monarch, and certainly no need to pay 646 goons and their back-room staff billions every year. Brussels will rule absolutely. They will waste our money with unimagined skill. Bye bye democracy. It was nice while it lasted. This item will be stolen just after midnight on Monday 30th November 2009.

I have to stop. This is far too depressing. I had another 15 or 20 items lined up that I had researched earlier today.

The theft of any one of the five items above shocks me to the core. I never thought that our own MPs would terrify me more than al Qaeda, but that day has arrived.

I have tried to avoid saying this, but I predict a riot. I predict running battles on the streets of ~~Britain~~ Euro Regions 1-8. I predict many deaths and much bloodshed once the sheeple awake to the nightmare I have envisaged for the last five or six years. The day has come and the thefts are planned. The loss of these items will, I fear, reverberate down the years. It is our undoing.

Legally, I could not have said any of this after midnight on Monday. To criticise the EU becomes a crime then*.

What have we allowed to happen?

And, much more importantly, what will we do about it?

If you have any suggestions, get them in quickly. Tuesday morning cometh fast, and by then it will be too late.

The Trouble With Politics

2009-11-26T20:44:00.004Z

Take a look at this Tax Payers Alliance video, if you haven't already, and you will quickly grasp what is wrong in our country. Millions of words have been written about the scandal that is our forced entry into Europe. ZaNuLabour have no public mandate for this nonsense, and they steadfastly refuse to give us an in/out referendum. It is easy to bash Labour because, frankly, they are the worst government in living memory. They have a Phd in wasting money, a black belt in political correctness, and a Masters in listening to the fake charities that they pay to tell them what to think. Their dictionary is woefully inadequate, containing as it does, just five words: Tax, Ban, Fine, Legislate and Waste. Change for the sake of change with no discernible benefits seems to be their motto, and by Christ, they have produced enough gormless change to last us all a lifetime. I am confident when I say that this lot will warm the opposition benches for a very, very, very long time.

The Tories? Same morons, same objectives, same mentality. They have nothing new to offer me. Not. A. Single. Thing. I will not be voting for them.

LibDems? As you will see from the table below, they have had almost 100 years as a fifth wheel and nothing they do or say convinces me that we will see a LibDem prime minister until the sun grows cold. I honestly have no idea why they carry on. It can only be for the troughing experience, or the monotonous opportunity to appear on TV to say, "We-ell, we're not really sure".

Here is a list of prime ministers since 1900 and the parties they led:

Marquess of Salisbury 1895-1902 Conservative
Arthur Balfour 1902-1905 Con
Henry Campbell-Bannerman 1905-1908 Liberal
Herbert Asquith 1908-1916 Lib
David Lloyd George 1916-1922 Lib
Andrew Bonar Law 1922-1923 Con
Stanley Baldwin 1923 Con
James Ramsay MacDonald 1923 Labour
Stanley Baldwin 1924-1929 Con
James Ramsay MacDonald 1929-1935 Lab
Stanley Baldwin 1935-1937 Con
Arthur Neville Chamberlain 1937-1940 Con
Sir Winston Churchill 1940-1945 Con
Clement Attlee 1945-1951 Lab
Sir Winston Churchill 1951-1955 Con
Anthony Eden 1955-1957 Con
Harold Macmillan 1957-1963 Con (Capt Ranty arrives on the planet)
Sir Alec Douglas-Home 1963-1964 Con
Harold Wilson 1964-1970 Lab
Edward Heath 1970-1974 Con
Harold Wilson 1974-1976 Lab
James Callaghan 1976-1979 Lab
Margaret Thatcher 1979-1990 Con
John Major 1990-1997 Con
Tony Blair 1997-2007 Lab (Capt Ranty finally wakes up)
Gordon Brown 2007- Lab

Of the 25 (26 if we count Gordoom, and I haven't), 17 resigned and 8 were defeated at general elections. I wanted to confirm when the Liberals last held office as I had forgotten. I posted the full list here only as a reminder to the LibDems that they are absolutely not required in British politics. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the list above shows us one more important point. British politics is exactly like Scottish football. It is a two horse race. Labour have had 7 prime ministers and the Conservatives 15 in the last 80 odd years.

Clearly, not all governments are bad. Some of them had horrendous decisions to make, during WW1 and WWII, for instance. And we all know that life was none too pleasant for Brits back then. After that we had Aden, the Suez crisis, Korea, some involvement in the Vietnam War, the Falklands Conflict, Gulf War 1 & 2, and the Afghanistan debacle. So we can see that wars are important to politicians, although, back in the day, we generally had good reason to pick a fight with another sovereign nation. These days, and forgive the cynicism, they all seem to be about money. Or oil. Or money. Or oil. How can they deliver democracy to a people when the deliverers themselves have forgotten what democracy is?

If I have a point to make about all of the above, I would say that I am sick and tired of the same charlatans appearing, almost turn-about, for the last hundred years. More recently I have become disgusted, utterly disgusted, with the Labour goons. Statutes, bans, stealth taxes, more statutes, manifesto lies, broken referendum promises, more bans, even more statutes, allowing the EU to swallow us hook line and sinker without a by your leave, more bans, cameras, bloody cameras on every corner of every street, yet more statutes, even more bans and the endless political correctness. I am a non-person. To be white in the UK today is almost a crime. Stand by, and those bastards will vomit more legislation to make white people criminals. To criticise immigration is heresy, and one is immediately branded a racist. I have been fortunate enough to spend time in 71 countries on our planet, and anyone searching for any racism in my mind or body will be searching until the end of time. Merely looking at anyone under 16 makes you a paedophile. God help you if you have to work with kids, transport them to school, the Brownies, or a local football match. I really wonder what sort of world we are making. The children, as the song has it, are our future, yet we have spent billions making them terrified. Daily we ensure that they take no risks whatsoever and that they assume absolutely no responsibility for their actions. We can always blame society, or a poor upbringing, or a Catholic priest. (Mind you, the priests have a lot to answer for. The sick bastards).

Naturally I have chosen to highlight the bad stuff, and no, I am not going to praise them for the good stuff, because that's exactly what we pay them to do. Keep the damn roads in good repair, we give you £44 billion a year to do that. It's still not enough though, is it? You still feel the need to snatch £328 million in parking fines. We send £35 billion your way every year via tax on alcohol. Your response? Introduce yet higher taxes using some gormless "unit table". Smokers in the UK wing £11 billion your way every year and you moan that it isn't enough, even though only £1.5 billion is spent on alleged smoking related diseases. More people were flying abroad so you just had to increase travel taxes to insane levels. They needed passports so you increased the price of those too. 11 fucking times! Even petrol, which we produce in vast quantities, didn't escape your greedy little eyes. We now have the most expensive fuel in the world. Thank you very bloody much for that.

There it is. There's the problem. Not only did you bite the hand that fed you, you kept on chewing. All the way up to the shoulder.

When people have decided that they have had enough, choices are limited. The stock answer is "Vote 'em out!". Good advice if the opposition weren't exact replicas. Labour numpties wear red ties, and Tory numpties wear blue. That is the only way I can tell them apart. Voting out one set of gibbons for another won't help. Voting in a fresh crew, a crew with new and exciting ideas is probably the best way to go, but as you can see, we British sheep think that the only choice is red or blue. Some people vote red because their dad did. If that is the only reason you are going to vote in the upcoming general election, do all of us a favour and stay at home. If you don't know why you are voting one way or the other, then don't bother. You are too dozy to be allowed a vote. Seriously. Voters should be handed a form which says "I am voting for XXX because, [fill in this portion with a sensible reason]", and if the reason is shit,, they should be sent home.

Revolution is on the table too. Except that in order for a revolution to take place we would need to ensure that X Factor, or Corrie, or Eastenders was cancelled. The British public have never been dumber. They have never been more complacent than they are today. 6 million are idle, whether they want to be or not. 12 million are directly, or indirectly employed by an inept group of greedy, lazy shysters, so there's no help to be had there. 25 million of us are working like demons just to keep our companies trading successfully and by so doing, we hang on to our jobs. The remainder are the seniors, who deserve some peace and quiet after a lifetimes toil, and the children, who must be trained to obey, like good little Borglets. Who the hell is going to revolt? The only people who want or need to revolt are too busy keeping the country and themselves afloat.

So. We get to why I am doing what I am doing. It is an obvious choice for me because I could not be any more disillusioned with British politics if I tried. The Labour party have ruined my life, and the Conservatives look like they are simply going to take the baton from the reds in May and keep on going. Same shit, different party. I have a new plan. It isn't for everyone. It requires a great deal of thought, and not a small amount of soul searching. I have chosen lawful rebellion for myriad reasons, one of which is, I admit, to cause chaos. Mostly it's because I cannot live under the yoke anymore. I cannot continue to give this government, or their successors, more of my money than I get to keep for myself and my family. I am not a greedy man, but I do demand fairness. That is why I chose to be a Freeman. I chose to be the change I was looking for. I chose to take a radical road to get where I am going, and yes, I may live to regret that, and yes, I may be making a rod for my own back, but damn it all, it is my choice. My risk to take. It is my responsibility and if it all goes pear-shaped, I won't be looking to blame anyone but myself. Once again I say this to you: I do not want a free ride, I just want to pay a reasonable fare.

What made this an easier decision to make became apparent when I discovered that we have been lied to for a very, very long time. Council tax is illegal, not to mention unlawful. Income tax should have been abolished years ago. Stop and Account is about as unlawful as you can get. Random vehicle stops by the policey officers are anathema to Freemen. The deluge of unwarranted, unnecessary, unwanted legislation we have borne in the last 13 years has been mind-blowing. Especially so, when you learn that our "lawmakers" do not even bother to read them first. Not ever. When the Minister for Europe runs around baying and bleating for us all to accept the Lisbon Treaty with nary a blink confesses, live on air, mind you, that she hasn't bothered to read the document, you know that something is rotten in the state of Westmonster.

Politics, I will therefore conclude, is a waste of time. It will get us precisely nowhere. The waste will continue under the reds or under the blues, and, mark my words, it will get a damn sight worse before it gets better. Incredibly, the kids of today will look back on these years and say, "Ahhh. The good old days". Just like us old farts say that the fifties, sixties, seventies and the eighties were the good old days.

The days get worse. Time to make a decision.

I have made my decision.

What will YOU decide?

Unleash Hell

2009-11-20T14:31:00.001Z

Old Holborn has reached the end of his chain (click on my title to go to his place) and he has asked for suggestions on how we restore sanity.

He wrote the following:

Right. Enough is enough. I can walk around in a costume, I can write on my blog and I can make life hell for the 646 in my own little way.

It isn't working though, is it?

We need ideas. It isn't voting for XXX or YYYY, that got us here. It isn't Twitter and it isn't Facebook. IT isn't the Daily Mail and it isn't Radio 4.

Something has to change. It simply cannot continue like this. We are bankrupted, our children are bankrupted, we are giving away our wages to people who want us to give away our wages and control our every movement, action and thought. Everything we do is now illegal.

I want serious suggestions from readers of the Old Holborn Blog. Do I publish a DIY "freeman" guide? Do we march? Where? Do we write? To whom? Do we start a newspaper or a national campaign? What do we do?

I don't have the answers but every, EVERY populace has prevailed over their oppressors. They did it. We can do it.

But we are going to have to get organised. And very, very serious.

646 of them. 60,000,000 of us.

This then, is my response. There are some fine suggestions in the 90 comments so far. Regular readers will not be surprised to learn that I favour Lawful Rebellion. It is simple. It is peaceful. It clogs up the government machine. It is effective. No blood is shed. No need to mass march on anywhere or anyone in particular. This is an Armchair Warrior's dream come true.

From the comfort of your favourite chair you can unleash chaos. Using ancient law you can, and will, reclaim the high ground. Any soldier knows that once you have the high ground you have won. No-one is asking you to dash through the streets, Molotov Cocktail clutched in a sweaty hand. No-one is asking you to risk life and limb in an unfair battle against uniformed thugs who are trained to believe that the people they are meant to protect are, in fact, their enemy. Old school coppers know that the vast majority of us are good people, law-abiding people, but the new recruits are trained using neurolinguistic programming. They are a new beast entirely. They have some serious kit that can hurt, maim, or even kill us.

Before I set out on Freedom Road I carried out a risk assessment. I investigated the pro's and the con's and it became a no-brainer for me. Is there a risk in what I do? Certainly. But I find the risks acceptable. The worst they can do is kill me, and what I am doing, or intend to do, is definitely worth an "accident" when I am out walking my dogs. But here's the kicker: far too many people are doing the same thing. More and more join us every day of the week. I hear that over 200 affidavits a day are being delivered to government, and/or Queen Lizzie the 2nd. Lawful Rebellion is the new black.

I ask you this: what have you got to lose? If you are angry, if you are beyond that and regularly see a big purple vein standing out near your temples, it really is time to get a grip. I too was outraged, and when I started reading OH's blog, or DK's blog, or Leg-Irons blog, and a huge number of others, I found that my rage did not go away. It merely accelerated to new, life-threatening levels. I knew it wasn't healthy, I knew I just had to find another road to travel. And so, as you are all now aware, I became a Freeman.

Now, (as you also know), it is not all beer and skittles. It is a serious responsibility. Taking my destiny back from a bunch of scumbags in government was an easy choice. Retaking control, and I do not pretend that I am there yet, feels....amazing. Awesome. Fantastic. Pick any superlative you want. That's how I feel. What has it cost me? A few quid in stamps and registered letters. Just a few quid to remove a rabid, mindless monkey from my back. It was money well spent.

OH wants ideas? You could do worse than to start with this. A few simple letters to those money-grabbing bastards saying, (nicely), "No. Not anymore. You keep taking my money, and you give nothing in return. It stops now. I offer conditional payment. All I ask is that you show me a contract with two wet signatures, yours and mine, and I will happily pay you the money you say I owe you". Mr Council Tax Collector and Mr Inland Revenue can do no such thing. No such contract exists. Question their demands. Every single time.

How much risk are you exposing yourself to there? Is it frightening to contest a bill or a demand for your hard-earned cash?

Of course not.

What terrifies you is stepping away from the norm. What scares the bejesus out of you is what your friends and family may think. You need to start behaving like Billy in Midnight Express. Start going around the column in the opposite direction. Just like the nutters in the film who didn't like what Billy was doing, so the nutters in Westmonster will start shitting bricks. They want obedient cash cows. Without a compliant population they are fucked. Being compliant and complacent has just encouraged them to take more. Kill their money supply and you kill a government. It could not be any simpler. Conform and die. That is all your government requires of you. I prefer non-conformity. It is good for me, and it is good for the people I hold dear. It is my duty to rebel. I owe it to myself. I owe it to my family. I owe it to my country. I owe it to the countless unborn.

The power you gave to them can be taken away. Let's get started. Let's withdraw our consent to them robbing us and wasting our money.

The Powers That Were have used fear to control you since you were a child. You are a child no longer. You are an adult, a thinking, feeling, sentient being, and you know as well as I do that the system is corrupt and that fear has no place in a democratic society. "Control" was the domain of Joe Stalin, Idi Amin Dada, Pol Pot, Adolph Hitler, Julius Caesar and Giuseppe Garibaldi.

Now that we are fully subsumed into that EU monster, the control, the fear, and the corruption will erupt exponentially.

What is the answer?

Lawful Rebellion.

Or, you can sit there whining.

Be the fucking change. Make a difference. Make history. Restore your pride and your sense of self.

Break the chains.

Please.

Righting A Wrong

My good friend Dick Puddlecote has committed a cardinal sin. Visit his place (if you must) to witness the obscenity he has posted.

The picture above, which I queued up for outside Athena in Manchester, for four fucking hours, when I was 16, went up on my bedroom wall and stayed there. It was irreplaceable. This stunning visage was tattooed on my brain forever. No-one could remove it. Until today.

Puddlecote, you bastard.

My eyes were scorched when I looked upon that abomination you put up. To remove such an image from my brain I would normally turn to drink.

But I am in a dry country, you twat!

I will nurture the pain and plot my revenge.

This isn't over pal.

Back To Africa

2009-11-10T22:15:00.004Z

Dear People of Blogworld,

I am to sally forth once again to the dark continent. I go to do my thing. My day job.

I'll be back, if Allah wills it, on the 26th November, to resume my quest.

While I am gone you might want to listen to a couple of podcasts by some very bright people here

They are called The Lawful Rebellion Guide 1 & 2.

I have listened, with growing fascination, to both sessions and I have had many things reaffirmed and I have also learnt many new things. You may recall that I told you a while ago that Freemen should sign their affidavits (and any other paperwork) with blue ink? Turns out that we are rather special people and we can use purple ink if we wish. Blue is for oiks only, we are told. Purple, you may recall, is for royalty only. Turns out that the reason for that was our old friend, money. Only the royals could afford the purple ink which, back then, was made out of (expensive) mashed up sea shells. It is a small thing, but I am going to buy a selection of purple pens. If it adds to their annoyance, it adds to my joy.

You will also hear more about Accepting For Value (A4V). Regular readers will know that I tried this myself as a method of "payment" some 7 weeks ago. I have heard nothing back, nor do I expect to. It was only £200 "owed" to the taxman in penalties so it isn't exactly earth-shattering, but, if it works for £200 it will work for £200K. When my Company accounts are audited, HMRC will be on my tail for £3.5K in corporation tax. I will be accepting that for value too. I will, naturally, tell you what happens.

They also talk of an interesting investigation into mortgage payments, so do listen if you have time. If you don't have time, ram it into an iPod and listen to it on the way to work. They talk of Lawful Rebellion (why, who, when and what for) and they discuss Freemanism. These are knowledgeable guys who practise what they preach. The guys also provide very useful links to the subjects they discuss.

Recently a commenter suggested that I summarise what I have done so far.

1. I read Magna Carta 1215. Several times. Particularly Article 61.
2. I read Magna Carta 1297.
3. I read the Bill of Rights 1689
4. I read the Bankruptcy Act 1869
5. I read the Bills of Exchange Act 1882.
6. I learnt the difference between Statute and Common Law.
7. I learnt the difference between lawful and legal.
8. I issued my Notice of Understanding, Intent, and Claim of Right on 8th June 2009.
9. I became a Freeman on the Land 15 days later.

Tasks yet to be completed:

1. Copyright my (strawman) name.
2. Copyright my DNA, breath, fingerprints, irises, blood, urine & other unmentionables.
3. File for Commercial Standing using UCC-1 (Uniform Commercial Code Form 1).
4. Cease paying any form of tax.
5. Live life the way it was intended-free and unencumbered.

You are all invited along to see what happens.

If my connection is poor in my hotel in Africa, I will not be posting too much, but I will be able to answer questions if you have any. Or we can argue if you think I am wrong. Or, if you see anything useful in the blogosphere, bung it in and we can have a look at it.

Stay well, stay feisty, and above all, stay rebellious. They can only win if we good people do nothing and say nothing.

We Were Deceived.

2009-11-08T16:07:00.000Z

For decades.

I missed these four videos the first time around, back in 2007. I was too busy fighting the vile smoking ban. I truly believed that the smoking ban was the first experiment by the government to control a huge minority in our fair land. Naturally, the non-smokers got right behind it. After all, it wasn't them being forced outside, it was the filthy smokers. It wasn't them being abused, even killed, it was just the filthy smokers. It wasn't them having rohypnol slipped into their drinks, it was just those filthy smokers, who had slipped out for a disgusting cigarette.

It was Divide and Conquer 101. It showed the government that it could be done. So they repeated the exercise with the fat, with the lazy, and with the drinkers. If you somehow fit into all of those categories, you have my sympathy. You have had a shitty few years.

As important as it was, (for a social engineering experiment), it was as nothing compared to what was being planned in the background.

These videos might help to explain it a little better than my scribblings.

We have all been conned. We have all been deceived. We have all been taken for a ride.

The question is: are we ready to retaliate?

Fast forward to 2109. Eavesdrop on a conversation in a Pleasure Dome.

"I mean really. Can you believe those tits back in 2009 did nothing, nothing, to stop the USE from forming? It was a disaster from day one". (Lights a smoke, inhales deeply).

"I know, I know. They had the internet and everything. Archaic compared to what we have now, but shit, they were communicating, they just never acted!". (Lights a spliff, inhales deeply).

"Yep. They knew it would be bad. They knew that their national identities were being ripped away from them. I know we laugh about it today, but it took us, and our fathers & mothers 30 odd years to undo the damage. So many lives lost....so many taken by the superstate....".

"They even knew the EU was riddled with corruption and still did nothing when the old parliament kept throwing billions over to Brussels. Even when they started paying tax at the lower rate of 80% they just moaned a little more, but they kept voting in the same fucking idiots".

"Yeah. You know, I am a direct descendant of Captain Ranty. Blogged like a man possessed from 2009 until 2015. Of course, by then it was all over. They locked him up and said he was "fixated". What an embarrassment. I wish he had done more".

"I wish they had ALL done more.....".

The Green Fields Of France

Is THIS What We All Wanted?

2009-11-05T12:09:00.000Z

Some information for you.

I have not checked it for accuracy, but most of it looks sound. (Link to site embedded in the title).

1. The Queen has signed 6 of the 7 EU Treaties.

2. The 6 treaties define and build the EU as an unelected dictatorship.

3. The EU's laws give it the powers of a police state.

4. The 7th EU treaty will complete the abolition of Britain as a nation

- the Queen could sign it in as little as two years.
Shouldn't we repeal the 1972 European Communities Act now
before we are imprisoned permanently inside?

5. Thirty three years inside the EU - have you noticed how our democracy is being withdrawn?
The EU has already denied us that most basic of human rights - the right to vote against the EU and to keep our own nation. A majority of us don't want to be in the EU. We are being forced in against our will.
Do you feel you've become powerless, unable to influence events, or your vote is worth less? The six treaties are gradually removing our democracy; and 70% of the laws now passed by our Parliament are EU laws, not ours. Isn't the real reason people have lost interest in politics precisely because the EU has taken away our ability to change things?
Common law, where the government was our servant, is now largely replaced by the EU's Corpus Juris, which puts the government above the law, and we don't participate. We have already lost most of our rights (including habeas corpus). The power of government grows unchecked, as does that of large corporations. Politicians continuously lie about the EU, pretending its not significant.

6. Massive EU corruption
The EU's auditors have found the fraud is so widespread they've refused to sign off the EU's accounts for each of the last ten years. Whistleblowers like Marta Andreason, the EU Budget Director, who in 2005 found the EU couldn't account for 95% of its £66 billion budget, are simply fired for telling the truth.

7.The bribing of our Politicians by the EU
Europe works by bribing politicians with huge salaries and expenses to vote for Europe, against the best interests of their own voters.
As a result all three parties are in favour of the EU - Westminster acts like a one party state of politicians: the Lib-Lab-Con. The parties are run top down and implement the policy of their leaderships, not that of their members. (unfortunately UKIP is run in the same way). If you have voted for the Labs, Cons or Lib-Dems since 1969, you have voted for the EU dictatorship.

8. EU corruption is now exploding through our Civil Service, our local government, and our 7,000 quangos.
A shadow EU government lives inside our bureaucracy, headquartered in the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM.) It includes many parts of government including the RDA and the Regional Assemblies. Common Purpose, an EU organisation, the UK branch also headquartered in the ODPM, has members across many government organisations including some city and county councils, the Land Registry, the police and the NHS, which it is destroying from within.

Common Purpose is the glue that enables fraud to be committed across these government departments, most of it lining the pockets of politicians and bureaucrats. It often involves the sale of public assets such as land to friends of politicians or their businesses. (The RDA -The EU Regional Development Agency, is a major player in this type of fraud.) And the handing out of plum government non jobs with big salaries and expenses to members of Common Purpose, all of it involving the theft of our money as taxpayers. The Chief Executive Officer of Common Purpose is Julia Middleton of the ODPM.

9. Businesses closing under EU regulation
The EU's 107,000 regulations will close hundreds of thousands more businesses when fully enforced, and control our private lives more closely than those of Soviet citizens. (In a Parliamentary answer to Lord Stoddart in January 2003, the government admitted there were 101,811 EU regulations)

10. The EU costs us £200 billion pa, 20% of our economy
According to the government's Better Regulation Task Force, complying with EU regulations now costs our economy over £100 billion a year. Economists say we lose £80 billion pa by associating with the EU's inferior economies. The EU took our fishing industry, which costs us £5 billion pa. EU damage to other industries (like forcing us to close the Rover Car Co) a further £20 billion. Our EU contribution is £10 billion.
Before we joined the EU we had an even balance of trade with them. Now EU regulations have fixed it so we lose £22 billion year trading with the EU on our balance of payments. We'd be enormously more wealthy if we left.

11. Our counties to be abolished
The Queen signed the 1992 Maastricht Treaty, which adopts the EU Regionalisation Plan. This will abolish England's 48 counties and replace them with 9 European regions, each with their own Regional Capital, which reports directly to Brussels, not to Westminster. This effectively obliterates the country of England. For example the County of Cornwall is replaced by the South West Region, which stretches from Lands End and includes Gloucestershire and Wiltshire; its regional capital is Exeter. As this move is unpopular it is being kept low-key and will not be implemented until the seventh treaty is signed, when we lose our right to object.

12. The deliberate destruction of our way of life, standards and morals
From Sunday trading, where large stores force staff to work Sundays for derisory pay - or they don't get a job, to the government's deliberate undermining of the family, to sex education for the under 13's, to children being given obscene homework, its all traceable via our compliant government back to the EU over the last 34 years. While inside atheist Europe, British Christianity has almost died out; safety on our streets and a great chunk of civilised life has left with it.

13. The EU has controlled our immigration since 1997
The Amsterdam Treaty handed complete control of our immigration to the EU. The EU increased the numbers of immigrants from 30,000 a year to 200,000 a year. That's why house prices have been screaming up. Politicians and huge corporations like immigration - with thousands of immigrants available on low pay, corporations can impose the minimum wage on millions. Politicians then lie that they can't get British workers to do dirty jobs. The truth is they won't offer a decent wage to compensate for unpleasant work, and instead use immigrants at £5 an hour.
Michael Howard was lying on the 24th January 2005 when he said he'd fix immigration - as Prime Minister, he'd have had no control over it whatsoever. Immigration hurts our existing immigrants first - new immigrants move into their areas, decreasing the wages and increasing the pressure on housing.

If the seventh Treaty is signed, we lose our right to withdraw and Britain ceases to be a nation. Like the other six, it only requires two signatures: the Prime Ministers, and the Queen's.

There is much more at this site. Worth a look.

What Now?

2009-11-04T20:14:00.000Z

Seriously, what now?

I have questions. Many questions.

If we buried our nation and all of our hard won freedoms yesterday, where do we go from here?

As we (already) regurgitate 88% of EU statutes and rubber-stamp their passage through parliament, does this mean we can reduce MPs pay by 88%? And from 1st January 2010 by 100%?

As we are to be utterly controlled by the EU, do we really need an election next May?

As the EU is to subsume us, will Scotlands SNPs continue to campaign for independence? If so, why? And independence from what?

As Brussels is now (or soon to be) in charge, can we use Westminster Palace to house the homeless?

If European Competition Laws are to be adhered to, will I be paying a damn sight less for my cigarettes? And, will we be allowed to smoke indoors again, just like ALL other EU ~~nations~~ regions?

As HM Queen has agreed to be ruled by a foreign power can we shut her down, flog off her properties and remove her from the Civil List?

As we will change to Napoleonic Law, can I still be a Freeman?

I have many more.

If you have any answers I would be very grateful.
