History In The Making?

We sure hope so.

Today John Hurst takes his fight to a higher court. The outcome could change all of our lives. This post is to remind people of the event, and to wish John and Tina all the very best as they continue the battle.

This is from IPJ's blog last week.

"Now John is preparing for the next part of this battle, as the reconvened administrative hearing moves to the magistrates court in LLandrindod Wells.
Event Date: Fri, 05/11/2010
Start Time: 10.30am
Location:

Llandrindod Wells Magistrates Court

High Street
LLandridod Wells Powys
Wales
LD1 6BG













There will be a static protest outside the court, as John Hurst attempts to make use of the protection of Article 61 of Magna Carta to enforce his council tax protest. It is his view that the magistrates will ignore the law in this case, which will result in his pressing for a judicial review by the Supreme Court.

Everyone welcome.

Note: It is not a trial, but a hearing before an administrative court which is hired for the day by the Council, including the magistrates."

GOOD LUCK JOHN AND TINA!!

UPDATE: Ian has more news here. Spoiler alert-they brought in a more "powerful" judge!

UPDATE 2: Bad news. Go look over at Ian's.

Under The Gun

Sharp-eyed readers will have spotted a new "Awkward Sod" in the list over there on the right.

The blog creator, Anarchyland, invited me to contribute.

I have now published my first post at English Secession.

It would be pretty cool if you could click your way over there, and it would be even cooler if you could leave a comment.

An End To Fractional Reserve Banking?



Probably not.

We will have to wait until the whole thing implodes. As it must.

In the meantime, we have a rare thing to show you. An MP with cojones.

Good for you Douglas! Keep at 'em!

You may well have questions. If so, go here to read the Hansard text, and to follow a discussion on this stunning suggestion by this brave MP.

Tip of ye olde beret to LostAtSea for sending me the link.

Standing Under Freedom

I know it's a little early, but I wanted to suggest that you treat yourself to Timothy AntiTerrorists new book for Christmas.

I bought and thoroughly enjoyed his last stunning work, The AntiTerrorist Handbook. I refer to it constantly.

The front cover of his new book, Standing Under Freedom, looks like this:



















and the back cover looks like this:



















You can follow the link above to read an excerpt from the book.

The AT did not ask me to promote his book(s), and I am not receiving any dosh for doing this. I really feel that many (if not all) of my readers here would be infinitely better informed if they read his work. His style is easy on the eye, and he explains complex subjects with an ease I can only dream of.

It comes out on 1st December 2010.

Treat yourself. Educate yourself. Free yourself.

Stand Up Sons Of Liberty-Again

I thought we could do with a musical interlude. I know I have posted this before (twice)* but I reckon we should hear this song daily, until it has the desired effect.

*Last month saw an influx of over 3,000 new readers. They may have missed this the first (and second) time around so I make no apologies for reposting. This is a powerful song and I think it may just tip some people over the edge. Well, I live in hope!

In keeping with the current vibe: rebellion, freedom, unshackling, saying "Fuck you" to the man, I thought something stirring would fit the bill.

Something rousing. Something to sing along to. Something to give us hope, and a stiffer spine for the days ahead.

Wrap yer ears around this....



Wannasingalong?

Here are the lyrics.

Once an honest man could go from sunrise to its set
Without encountering agents of his state or government
But a sorry cloud of tyranny has fallen across the land
Brought on by the hollow men, who did not understand
That for centuries our forefather have fought and often died
To keep themselves unto themselves, to fight the rising tide
And that if in the smallest battles we surrender to the state
We enter in a darkness whence we never shall escape


When they raise their hands up our lives to possess
To know our souls, to drag us down, we'll resist.


Watt Tyler led the people in 1381
To meet the king at Smithfield to issue this demand:
That Winchester's should be the only law across the land
The law of old King Alfred's time, of free and honest men.
Because the people then they understood what we have since forgot:
That a government will only work for its own benefit
And I'd rather stand up naked against the elements alone
Than give the hollow men the right to enter in my home


When they raise their hands up our lives to possess
To know our souls, to drag us down, we'll resist.


Stand up Sons of Liberty and fight for what you own
Stand up Sons of Liberty and fight, fight for your homes.


So if ever a man should ask you for your business or your name
Tell him to go and fuck himself, tell his friends to do the same.
Because a man who'd trade his liberty for a safe and dreamless sleep
Doesn't deserve the both of them, and neither shall he keep.

Share this with fellow freedom fighters.

Fuck it. Share it with the sheep, the drones, and the godforsaken Borg while you're at it.

Just wake them the fuck up.

Otherwise we are doomed to trudge for an eternity. Do that old-fashioned thing: Stand up. Get off your knees. Man up. Grow a pair. You are worth fifty, a hundred, a thousand of those retards in Westminster. It's time you made them aware of that. Hell, it's time you were aware of that indisputable fact.

Get busy livin', or get busy kneelin'.

The choice, fellow humans, was ever yours.
