The false flag demonic printer cartridge: Even 'The Spectator' seems to get it...

Now, we realise that we might have been a bit controversial - to some - in what we've said about the demonic print cartridge affair.

If you're one of the (many) people who've agreed with us, do not fear. You are definitely not alone.

This from Melanie Phillips in The Spectator:

"There’s something very odd about the Yemeni bombs. We are told, first by the British and then by the Americans, that they were intended to be detonated mid-air. If so, why were they carefully addressed to synagogues in Chicago?

I suspect there’s more that’s yet to emerge about this affair."

See, powers that be? There's precious few of us believe what you've been telling us.

Sunday Paper Review: 31st October 2010

Did you put your clocks back? Our blog's name is great for getting traffic twice a year, it seems...

Anyway, it's Hallowe'en. But don't worry. Nothing more scary here than the usual horror movie served up by the corporate media to make you all worry yourselves into serfdom.

The Sunday Telegraph runs big on the incredible demonic printer cartridge story. We reckon we've worked out how these corporate media scare stories designed to control-the-masses are written now. Check these phrases out - all in the exact order that they appear in the main story regarding how we're supposedly facing the bogeyman apocalypse:

"May have been", "he believed", "could not be ruled out", "officials believe", "believed to be", "fears of more plots", "suggestions", "no early evidence", "we cannot rule that out", "had the planes", "hundreds could have been killed", "suspicion fell", "claimed that the plot", "believed to be similar", "thought to have designed", "also believed to", "the target may have been", "had it detonated", "the aircraft could have been", "we do not believe", "we have no information", "was thought to be", "most probable", "probably a more likely", "can be used", "can be used", "speculation grew".

They don't seem very certain or knowledgeable about anything, do they? Don't they have any solid facts to try and scare us into submission with?

Come back and worry me again when you have some demonstrable facts that can be placed in front of a judge and jury; not speculation which a huge proportion of the British public already say they think sounds like a dodgy, false flag operation.

Our public servants - who think they're our masters - have cried wolf far too many times and now too many of us simply do not believe them.

Which means our spooky people, when they are genuine, must work twice as hard - because if anything dodgy happens, there are a large number of us who will probably look to hold powerful British people in posh suits and posh offices responsible - not some overhyped, boz-eyed, flea-ridden religious nutcases living in a cave in the third world.

That trust between the people and the State is at such a low-ebb that we now believe - in large numbers - that false flag events are being staged against us by our own is something that the powers that be need to examine for themselves. They could start by examining the relentless attacks on our liberties and freedoms which were committed under New Labour.

Then there's Tony Blair and his phony war. So, what do we find in the Independent on Sunday?

They tell us that: "The axis of terror got bigger yesterday."

Not only that, but "Yemen has become the new Afghanistan."

Anyone for a jolly good war?

Not only that, but with the credibility of the world being terrorised by the ghost of Satsuma Bin Liner now being at full stretch, we also get a new bogeyman.

They report: "There comes to prominence one Yemeni who – in the eyes of America and some leading security specialists – is on a par with Osama bin Laden: Anwar al-Awlaki."

Now, was he the one who went to lunch at the Pentagon after the 9/11 attacks?

Oh yes, he was. One and the same.

Now, this blog - because we're patriotic, pro-liberty, pro-constitution, anti-globalist - might be categorised by some as "right wing".

In wearing that tag, we don't rush to blame "Islamist extremists" for all the ills of the world. Far from it.

Yet it is no surprise that - after being force fed a diet of news about "Islamist extremists" who are coming to get you - people adopt certain positions.

So, while The Observer is also getting it's knickers in a twist about ink cartridges, it also has an interesting story from Germany.

It appears that there is a movement in the beautiful, friendly city of Cologne where people are uniting to oppose the building of a mosque. The report goes on to highlight anti-immigrant sentiments in Germany and Austria.

While we don't very much support groups like the BNP and the English Defence League, it seems that they are reflecting opinions prevalent elsewhere on the European continent.

Bizarrely, The Observer makes time to put the phrase "neo-Nazism" into their report.

But weren't the Nazi's a socialist party? Or was the name "National Socialist German Workers Party" something I just imagined reading?

Back to Britain, and it seems the Sunday Express haven't quite finished with David Cameron, the not-so-closet-Europhile, just yet. Good for them.

They report how: "Cameron has now backed plans to sneak changes into the Lisbon Treaty without triggering referendums across Europe."

Later, the report notes that: "Leaders are petrified that any change to the EU treaties would spark referendums in the UK, Ireland and the Netherlands."

Of course. We, the people must be trampled over. Don't let us give our consent to living under a continent wide dictatorship now, will you?

The newspaper quotes UKIP's Nigel Farage as saying of the latest EU plans: "It is one of the most massive power grabs they have ever attempted but because it is so ­devilishly complicated this might just sneak through by default. But make no mistake, these are draconian powers and without a shadow of a doubt this should trigger a referendum."

On a lighter note - depending on your view - the Mail on Sunday reports that "Nick Clegg was involved in a furious confrontation with a senior Liberal Democrat MP so heated that it left a Commons door hanging off its hinges."

The MP in question was, the report says, Bob Russell who was meeting Clegg to discuss proposed cuts to housing benefit.

We'd normally be very upset at damage to such a beautiful public building as the House of Commons.

But if it was in the name of a democratically elected MP telling Nick Clegg a few honest opinions, then we'll let it pass.

Wonder which one of them will settle the repair bill?

And finally... The People reveals how Alan Sugar described the ConDem coalition as: "a government that has found themselves as Leyton Orient in the Champions League."

Very witty... but he could probably have been more topical had he used a combination of "Liverpool" and "no better than Conference North players".

Apologies, Liverpool fans. It's not your fault. And my team hasn't won a thing in thirty years, so what do I know about football?

If we, the people do not hear the truth... who can blame us if we eventually stop believing?

No doubt, if you were not at home last night, you will by now have caught up with the bizarre story of how a print cartridge brought the world to a standstill.

I mean, I know the price of ink cartridges is criminal, but the response to someone having bought one was a bit over the top.

But seriously... I watched the story playing out like a bad movie on Sky News and - no disrespect to the channel - I did not believe a word.

We are meant to believe that some bogeyman or another is out to get us. Well, not us. Apparently. This time.

But the problem is, the timing was extremely convenient.

A couple of days after the bosses of British Airways and BAA go on record saying that it was about time we were treated like humans when passing through airports?

Oh, come on.

There's a saying about if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck... then there's a good chance it's a duck.

There's also the story of the boy who cried wolf.

Somewhere between the two - or perhaps both in equal measure - I was left watching the movie version of reality playing out on Sky News last night and thinking: "I do not believe a word of it."

And I'm very confident that an awfully large number of people who watched that story playing out on their TV screen thought similarly.

After all, there is an election on.

And, after being lied to incessantly by those in positions of power for such a very long time, the more dramatic the story and the more it would be used to remove our liberties and freedoms, the more I find myself watching and thinking "what a crock of..." - ahem!

Quotes of the Day: 29th October 2010

"These EU politicians are absolutely terrified of the people. They will do anything to avoid the people having a say in a referendum. We will now see the undignified spectacle of Herman Van Rompuy scurrying around, taking legal advice in a desperate effort to ensure that changes they intend to make to the Lisbon Treaty does not require referendums in member states."
- UKIP's Paul Nuttall MEP

"Having established common EU scrutiny over our budget, this deal also means a common EU legal framework applicable to "all EU Member States" - irrespective of us being outside the Euro. The path is now clear for us to be out voted on future EU legislative initiatives involving our internal fiscal affairs. We've not just given ground over how much of our money we give the EU. We've given the EU a say over how we spend our own money at home. Some victory, eh."
- (True) Conservative MP Douglas Carswell

"Since Lady Thatcher left office it has been easy to predict the outcome of EU summit meetings. A prime minister talks tough beforehand – especially in election campaigns – about defending British interests. Yet when he arrives it is a matter of moments before he is on his knees, doing exactly as he is bidden by our masters in Brussels. Dave is no exception, and nor did I expect him to be. It is not just that he reminds us more of Ted Heath every day."
- Simon Heffer in the Daily Telegraph

Cameron exposed to calls of "liar" as another "Cast Iron" guarantee turns to dust

"According to German Die Welt, Cameron has agreed to back Merkel's demand for a treaty change, reportedly assuring Merkel that he will secure the passage of a new treaty through the UK Parliament without a referendum."
- Mats Persson of Open Europe on ConservativeHome

Cast Iron?

He should be cast out.

The Conservatives need a real conservative to lead them - and fast.

As for William Hague, his deluded spin attempts mean his last hopes of rescuing his credibility as a politician are gone. He may as well foxtrot Oscar, too.

Now, bearing in mind that we will never let Labour forget THEIR blatant treachery and who, on their watch, committed treason...

...we still can't help but like the quote from Yvette Cooper who, in her role as Shadow Foreign Secretary says: "David Cameron's grandstanding has been a complete failure. European governments decided on 2.9% in August so he has achieved absolutely nothing. He's tried to swing his handbag but simply ended up clobbering himself in the face."

A bad day for Britain; an awful day for Cameron's busted flush Quisling Conservatives

On the day we learn that even the House of Commons library now admits - even by their vague estimations - that "up to half of British laws come from Europe", those of us living here must survey the bad news that a weak Prime Minister - high on rhetoric and low on delivery - looks set to leave our finances defenceless against yet more Brussels pickpocketing.

As the Daily Mail makes clear: "No10 has acknowledged it is powerless to prevent the [EU] budget soaring by at least 2.9 per cent - equivalent to an extra £429million from the UK - after failing to gain support from other EU members. The rise could even be as high as 6 per cent, at a time when public services in Britain are being slashed in a bid to cut the deficit."

The Guardian provides a similar but slightly higher price for the British taxpayer of Cameron's failure to crush the Brussels dictatorship, "with Britain contributing an extra £435.2m" according to their report.

Rumblings of discontent from within the Conservative Party are now coming into the open - and are long overdue.

Lord Tebbit's opinions are usually welcome here and he does not disappoint, having gone on record as arguing: "[Cameron] would do better to go down fighting than to surrender in some Vichy-style arrangement, pretending to hold on to sovereignty by agreeing to what Europe demands."

Widespread criticism of David Cameron was evident on the Daily Telegraph reader comments from very early yesterday.

Yet the big threat to David Cameron must surely now come from within his own party.

In a welcome, honest and candid piece, ConservativeHome generously state that: "when UKIP said Conservatives were not to be trusted on Europe, they were right".

They add: "When I and others said [...] Cameron and Hague were genuinely convicted Eurosceptics who understood what must be done and would not let us down, we were wrong."

And they warn: "There will be consequences."

Our political colleagues over at Bloggers4UKIP condemn Cameron as a: "Compulsive Liar & Traitorous Europhile"... a charge-list which will not find any disagreement here.

EU Referendum describe Cameron with the single word: "Loser!".

Meanwhile, a poll conducted by Com Res on behalf of the EU Referendum Campaign finds that "75% of the British Public want a Referendum on the EU" - a figure that must surely soon grow as the reality of the amount of money we are giving to Brussels while suffering crippling economic cuts at home gets further digested through commentators within both the political and media spheres.

Keep your eyes on the media throughout Friday - we suspect we haven't heard the last of the anger at Cameron. And that's just from what we're expecting to hear from the Conservatives...

Addendum: In another report, the Daily Telegraph quietly announces that "Britain has dropped its opposition to treaty changes" - which, if true, must be seized upon as a last chance saloon opportunity by anybody left in the Conservative Party with any truly conservative values.

Daily Telegraph, you're having a larf!

Oh my! Are the Daily Telegraph trying to make us all feel better about the European Empire by making us piddle our pants laughing with utterly comedic headlines..?

They say of 'Cast Iron' Dave Cameron: "Our most instinctively Eurosceptic Prime Minister for 20 years faces a tricky set of challenges."

You what!?

Most instinctively Eurosceptic?

Ahh, but there's the qualifier - "for 20 years".

Since then, we've had John Major (Maastricht), Tony Blair and Gordon Brown (Lisbon Treason).

Most Eurosceptic for twenty years? Not difficult, given the competition.

But you know, we don't believe a word David Cameron says on the European Empire.

But if he signs away any British sovereignty this weekend or any other, we'll add HIS face to banners pointing people in the direction of the text of the Treason Felony Act, too.

Most Eurosceptic for twenty years... what a hoot!

On the Daily Telegraph's reader comments, there's already someone asking if we can charge a Prime Minister with Treason.

Yes, you can. Should you need to.

There are forty years worth of Prime Ministers, Foreign Secretaries and the like who you could start working your way through, should you wish.

(Pathetic) Quote Of The Day: Yes, you, Transport Secretary Philip Hammond

Oh, sometimes it becomes painful and you think "will no-one make them stop?".

Martin Broughton, Chairman of British Airways and Colin Matthews, Chief Executive of BAA, have been discussing and criticising some of the awful, degrading processes of humiliation that passengers have to go through when travelling through our airports.

Broughton lays the blame for some of it on our own Government, saying they have felt it neccesary to "kowtow to the Americans every time they wanted something done."

And that sounds like an interesting thought. Especially when - as someone with doubts about the official 9/11 story - one looks at the backstory of the State-as-pervert naked body scanners...

So, Broughton shares the rest of his thoughts and Matthews of BAA shares his. All very interesting...

And then we get this little piece of spineless urine-derivative from Transport Secretary Philip Hammond.

Now, if he's turning whistle-blower, we should probably thank him. But we doubt it. It has all the hallmarks of a dribbling, spine-lacking lackey.

He says - emphasis our own: "I intend to develop a new regulatory system - one where the Government concentrates on setting the security outcomes that need to be achieved, and frees up operators to devise the security processes needed to deliver them in line with EU requirements."

Well, there we go. EU requirements. Wouldn't you just know it?

So, now you know what to do. Get to the airport, get ordered to strip off your shoes, get ordered to allow the State to take photographs of your naked body (via a machine that may or may not give you cancer)...

...then adopt a John Cleese, defiant comedic walk to tell these people what we think of them. Yes, you know the walk... that one.

And yes, we say that in the full knowledge that it is historically proven and documentable that the European Union is a construct of key Nazi strategists. It is Nazi nirvana. See ISBN 0-7515-2324-0 for all the references to bona fide historical documents and events.

Don't mention the war? I won't. But I will mention the Nazis and their part in the European Union from time to time. After all, it is true.

Patriots: Why wait for politicians? Why not just descend on Parliament (after politely asking permission, obviously)

You know, as members of the public who love our country, we sit around and we whinge and moan about the undemocratic nature of the European Empire. We whinge and moan, saying that we want our country back.

We wait for the Conservative Party backbenchers (who, apart from the noble Douglas Carswell and one or two others, you're mostly having a larf).

You ain't going to get anything from Labour or the LibDumDums.

So, what are we waiting for?

An EU-sceptic Conservative voter? A UKIP voter? Backer of one of the other patriotic parties?

Well, why do we not do what we are meant to do... descend on Parliament?

The lesbian and gay community did it in 1994.

What are we scared of that the lesbian and gay community were not?

It's all legal.

You turn up at the Houses of Parliament and lobby your MP.

From the Parliament website:

"Lobbying is the practice of individuals and organisations trying to influence the opinions of MPs and Lords. Methods of lobbying vary and can range from sending letters, making presentations, providing briefing material to Members and organised rallies.

Anyone can lobby an MP or Lord. Examples are:

* individual members of the public
* groups of constituents
* local businesses
* organised pressure groups/campaigners
* commercial organisations

Does lobbying get results?

MPs and Lords are the target of many different lobbying interests. Often the result these lobbyists are seeking is for the MP or Lord to vote a certain way on a specific issue. However, this decision will ultimately be down to the MP or Lord's own judgement and the influence (if any) that existing party policy will have on them.

Mass lobbies

Organisers of mass lobbies should contact the following offices as soon as possible:

* Serjeant at Arms' Office (020 7219 3050)
* Police Operations, Palace of Westminster (020 7219 6882)
* Operations and Events Office, Charing Cross Police Station (020 7321 7524)

Staff will be able to give further details of how to organise a mass lobby successfully around the daily business of Parliament.

-

Okay, we've put the idea there. We do not get enough visitors to pull it off. We're only on a couple of hundred a day. Some blogs, however, get far more than that.

And how many visitors does the combined traffic of the Conservative Home and Official UKIP website generate?

Stop talking, start doing.

Most of us, as smaller, independent blogs, would back it to the hilt.

I'd go a step further. I'd plan it every month.

Make it bigger and bigger and more widely known each time. Turn up every month, a million people lobbying their MP to get us our country back from the European Empire.

We talk about how powerless we are.

No we're not.

We don't need a Cameron or a Clegg or a Milipede or even a Hannan to help us.

We can do it ourselves.

And Parliament are even offering to help facilitate mass lobbying campaigns.

Here it is again:

http://www.parliament.uk/get-involved/have-your-say/lobbying/

So, there's the suggestion. Who'll be the blog with sufficient traffic to spearhead the thing..?

Or maybe we could see one of those very vocal MPs or retired politicians spearheading? Carswell? Tebbit?

Anyway, we should stop waiting... and go to Parliament and TELL them what we want them to do.

They are OUR public SERVANTS - not the other way around.

UKIP: At civil war over leadership... or are we?

Those of you who are keen web surfers might already be aware of an apparent row within UKIP.

For those who are not, here's the story so far.

A communication, apparently from Mike Nattrass MEP, has appeared on the internet.

Apparently originating as an email, we could not tell you who the email, apparently from Nattrass, was addressed to.

As a UKIP member, I did not receive it.

The content is an all-out attack on Nigel Farage.

Interestingly, I did just go to Mike Nattrass's website.

Not one mention of this alleged stream of consciousness anywhere that I can find.

I could ring him up and ask him whether it's genuine, but why bother?

I'm not interested in what divides us. I'm interested in what unites us.

As a patriot, I want our country back from the European Empire. I want our civil liberties and our constitution restored and honoured.

Anything else is an unwanted distraction.

But I think there's something strange about this story which doesn't quite add up totally for me...

UPDATE at 17.25: We have checked the alleged email with a trusted and reliable UKIP source. It is, we are told, quite genuine. We'll refrain from responding to the content beyond our earlier comment - "an unwanted distraction".

Blogging and why do we bother? (Part 2)

As a counter to my own argument - and in response to warm and encouraging comments from readers - we'd like to present the following to you.

This post was not planned and is triggered by a bit of synchronicity.

Do give the content a chance - I promise that there are no lizards in here:

'Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number -
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you -
Ye are many - they are few.'

The Mask of Anarchy by Percy Shelley, written after the massacre of Peterloo, Manchester, 1819.

Okay, so was that a meteor, an ultra impressive firework, or a UFO?

4.18am and I can't sleep.

Just went into the kitchen and saw, in the night sky, an object streaking through the atmosphere. Fairly big... and green!

So... was that a meteor, the most impressive firework in the world, a UFO, or the test of some false flag alien invasion laser technology?

I suspect meteor, but you never know...

Anyone know if we were due meteor showers over London tonight?

Addendum at 4.51am: I suspect that, having been on Google for a while, that what I saw was this. It was certainly remarkable, impressive and one of the most unexpected and first-in-a-lifetime visual experiences.

Blogging and why do we bother?

The dawn of a new week. A week in which this blog will no doubt find more things upon which we wish to express an opinion.

One could stop and ask oneself 'why bother?'.

Do we believe that anything we say here will change what the Conservatives, Labour and the Lib Dems do in relation to the European Empire?

Because The Talking Clock blogged about it? Of course not.

There's absolutely nothing that this blog says which will make anyone with influence respect and honour our written constitution.

Our civil liberties are a doormat which might get the occasional care of a spring clean but, most of the time, are used as a doormat upon which all kinds of foul substances are expunged in an ungratifying manner.

Will we even win any other people over to our point of view?

Will an anti-smoker ever say "actually, let them have a smoking room"..? Probably not.

Will a pro-European ever say "actually, let's have that referendum"..? Probably not.

Will anybody who earns a living from being parts of the machinery of control of everyday people say "actually, why don't we just leave everyone alone a bit"..? Unlikely.

So, what's the point? Why blog? Really, why bother..?

Because, rather than bottling up our frustrations, we get the observations off our chest.

If anyone who already agrees with us takes comfort in knowing that they are not alone in feeling the way that they do, then that is a wonderful added extra.

But for changing anything?

Ain't going to happen. Probably.

Which is a shame. As we just want the constitution honoured and that we live in a society which sees Government of the people, for the people, and by the people.

...where people can live their little lives and not be bothered by people trying to control things they don't like all the time.

Sorry, we appreciate that we expect too much.

We thought that being human had a bit of freedom attached.

As it doesn't, do allow us this tiny concession of a blog upon which to whinge a bit amongst those who are already singing from the same songbook.

UPDATE: There's now a part two, counter view to this blog post.

Nick Clegg: Anti-Smoking Fascist Hypocrite

Remember Nick Clegg and the sham public consultation exercise?

Where he said that, no matter how many people demanded it, the Government to which he has no rightful claim would not consider reversing the smoking ban..?

Well, turns out that Cleggy boy is a smoker.

Which, in our view, makes him a disgraceful hypocrite.

A traitor to his own as a smoker.

A traitor to his own over his love of all things European Empire.

Anyone left in the country who still wants to "talk to Nick"..?

We'd only have two words to say to him. And the second of them would be "off".

Sunday Paper Review: 24th October 2010

Unsurprisingly, the Independent on Sunday is not alone in trawling through the latest Wikileaks revelations about U.S. conduct in Iraq. With 391,832 documents to examine, it could take time for news sources to dig out detail as yet unheard, but everything that we know from the latest batch of revelations seems consistent with the endless stream of horror stories that we have heard almost continuously since the Iraq war began.

The most repugnant aspect of it all is that I no longer find myself surprised by the reports of torture and human rights abuses that I read about. It is what we have come to expect. The people in power - almost everywhere across the globe - seem to answer to no-one and are truly lacking in any moral standing whatsoever.

Welcome to the globalist New World Order.

My only reaction to these stories - knowing that it is unlikely that the people issuing orders to commit torture and abuse are unlikely to ever face trial - is to wonder... in whose name and on whose behest do these people think they are acting?

The Leftists are up in arms over the budget cuts, if The Observer is anything to go by. It claims that: "London councils revealed they were preparing a mass exodus of low-income families from the capital because of coalition benefit cuts." It puts the numbers expected to be part of this mass exodus from London at 200,000 people.

Haven't we been to war with nations over the "forcible displacement of persons" and similar issues?

Labour's Jon Cruddas is cited as saying: "It is an exercise in social and economic cleansing. It is tantamount to cleansing the poor out of rich areas – a brutal and shocking piece of social engineering."

No mention of the social engineering that New Labour deliberately engaged in with their immigration open door policies which many believe were an attempt at electoral gerrymandering.

And we cannot help but note that the claims on 'social cleansing' are not too dissimilar to the 'ethic cleansing of London' claim made by the BNP's Nick Griffin - the latter earning Griffin limited praise within his target audience but wholesale criticism elsewhere.

The Daily Telegraph has a report on the Lisbon Treaty which may have to come back to the discussion table. If it does, the newspaper seems to suggest that it might cause difficulties for 'Cast Iron' Dave Cameron. And we might get all excited... except that - on the whole - the Conservative Party are just as bad for their treasonous betrayal of our country over the European Empire as anyone else. One of the rare exceptions is Douglas Carswell... and he's cited in this news report with one of his boldest comments thus far.

Carswell says: "Since the general election we have had new ministers at the Foreign Office but no change in policy, which is still being run by the Foreign Office itself. As long as ministers just act as spokesmen for the Foreign Office we will not get what we need. We need proper political control."

Or, just to be completely different and novel for a change, how about Government OF the people, FOR the people and BY the people..?

They know precious little of that in Westminster. Even less in Whitehall. And absolutely nothing about the notion in Brussels.

But never mind... hope you're happy to keep paying the multitude of BILLIONS that we pay to be part of the European Empire's unhappy club.

Certainly, the Sunday Express is not happy about the arrangement. It uses the front page today to criticise the European Empire's budget, branding the undemocratic and unrepresentative organisation as "on another planet".

They turn first for comment to UKIP's Nigel Farage who says of one aspect of the new EU wasteful spendaholic budget: "The idea of sending eurocrats into orbit has its charms but £23million extra for space research is bizarre. Will the first EU space rocket have gold-plated taps and marble flooring? It seems our eurocrats have finally got off the Brussels gravy train and boarded Starship Excess."

The Swine Flu scandal rumbles on. The Mail on Sunday reports how: "The H1N1 vaccine will be the dominant of three flu strains included in the [seasonal flu] shot, meaning millions of elderly and vulnerable patients will get it automatically."

We, at this blog, would like to praise the Mail on Sunday for continuing to highlight possible links between the swine flu vaccine and Guillain-Barre Syndrome.

Or, as some would have it, beware of the soft-kill weaponry.

And finally... we'd have thought everyone was sick to the back teeth of hearing about Wayne Rooney already, but not - it seems - at The People. They have a report on his lavish lifestyle which, if you read the first two paragraphs, will soon have you wondering why David Cameron doesn't have a word. Sounds like Rooney could afford to clear the national debt of Britain all by himself.

Identity Fraud: It's comparatively nothing

We've heard lots and lots through the media about the problem of identity fraud in recent years.

In fact, one of the lame ass excuses New Labour (shudder) gave in attempting to legitimise compulsory biometric identity cards was the urgent need (apparently) to do something about this huge crisis (apparently) of identity fraud.

I've just switched on the BBC News channel to be told that: "...a study just completed by the National Fraud Authority and the National Fraud Intelligence Bureau [...] puts the annual cost of identity fraud at over £2.7bn."

The ENTIRE thing. For the entire country. For a year. £2.7bn.

I lose track of what it's been pushed up to now, but in March, the Daily Telegraph revealed that: "Figures contained in Treasury documents published alongside the Budget show Britain is projected to hand over £6.4billion [for membership of the European Empire] this year, and £7.6billion in 2010/11."

Cost of identity fraud - £2.7bn
Cost of European Empire membership - £7.6bn

So we could TREBLE the number of identity fraud crimes in the country and it STILL would be cheaper than our membership of the undemocratic European Empire that we have treacherously been signed up to.

Just offering some helpful perspective.

More University of East Anglia lunacy, anyone?

Of all the utter lunacy that we, the people pay for...

The Daily Mail has a report on how: "Wholesale changes to the nation’s diet, with a move towards vegetarian food and away from beef and cheese, have been recommended by Government advisers. A report commissioned by the Food Standards Agency suggests radical changes to what we eat and even how we cook."

Further into the report, the source of the lunacy becomes clear.

It states: "The FSA says the switch is necessary as part of a move to a diet that is low in greenhouse gases (GHG), which are associated with climate change. The report, compiled by a team from the University of East Anglia..."

Okay, we can stop right there, huh?

The University of East Anglia - the epicentre of the Climategate scandal.

Need we say more?

Anything that those people say... I mean, are we still funding these people? After all that has happened?

To now produce utter bullocks like this?

You know... I actually think I'm living in a parallel universe. That this is just a dream state. That I'm going to wake up in a while and find that I've spent the last decade or so living out a bizarre and comedic dream.

...that, like an episode from Dallas, I'll wake up and find Bobby Ewing naked in the shower and it'll be the nice, safe, comparatively innocent 1989 again.

Oh, for the late eighties. Big hair, shoulder pads, and only a fraction of the lunacy we're living through now.

Quotes of the Day: 21st October 2010

"If we left Europe today we would not have to reduce UK expenditure one iota. Britain will be paying, at current rates £82 billion pounds to Brussels over the next 5 years. Neatly matching the £81 billion in reduced expenditure announced by George Osborne over the same period."
- UKIP's Nigel Farage

"It is bad enough being in the EU and having it sticking its nose into every aspect of our lives. To have it frittering away our money on flash parties and subsidies for staff at a time when we are having to cut things like the police at home is utterly unacceptable. Our only role now is to sign the cheques – and we should simply refuse to pay."
- Conservative MP (a heroic, real one) Philip Davies

Remember those "anti terror laws" we were terrorised with by Labour?

Remember all those "anti terror" laws?

And those pervy naked body scanners?

Well, from the Department of "You Couldn't Make It Up" comes the following headline, courtesy of the Daily Mail, picking up on a report from Fox News:

Al Qaeda leader linked to 9/11 hijackers 'was invited to the Pentagon for lunch after attacks'

Wonder what that was about? Don't they have bank accounts in the third world that they could have paid his salary directly into..?

Oops! I thought out loud.

Have they banned thought, yet? Just wondered.

Social Housing plans do not add up: Why this blogger would join a Leftist budget cuts march

With apologies to some of our regular readers, we are - alas - about to show some leftist sympathies. We do so acknowledging our own working class roots, even though the Trade Union backed Labour Party long since deserted the working class and they now appear to be represented by... the Socialist Workers Party or the BNP?

Anyway, we deeply oppose the news of what is likely to happen to the rents paid by those in supposed "social housing".

Two contrasting takes on this from the Daily Telegraph and from The Independent.

Now, Georgie Boy might not understand normal people and their arrangements - what with him swanning round yachts on Corfu with Labour's Peter Mandelson and the odd, passing Rothschild or two.

But we can't see how the working class - even with jobs - can afford what the proposals are for the cost of supposedly "social housing". Leaping to £250 per week.

Let's break the maths down on this, looking at figures which - hopefully - most people will understand as reasonable.

This may be a bit dull. Grab a pad and paper and follow this through, step-by-step with us.

So, let's look at people with average everyday set ups in... say... the North West. We could have chosen anywhere in the country, of course.

Our imaginary family is a family of four.

They are a father, mother and two schoolkids.

He works as a Sales Administrator for a "well known retailer". His salary is £16,000 per annum.

She works part time as a customer service assistant for Sainsburys. She does sixteen hours a week @ £6.21p per hour.

BEFORE tax and national insurance, he earns £307.69 per week.
BEFORE tax and national insurance, she earns £99.36p per week.

Their combined household income BEFORE tax and national insurance is £407.05p per week.

Subtract from that a reasonable figure for whatever their tax and national insurance might be.

We went to listentotaxman.com and input these figures.

After tax and national insurance, he takes home £249.31
She doesn't earn enough to pay tax and national insurance, so she takes home £99.36

That now gives them a combined weekly income of:
£249.31 + 99.36 = £348.67

Subtract their proposed new rate "social housing" rent of £250 per week.

That leaves them £98.67p

Subtract their council tax (Band B):
Annual = £1199.98
Weekly = £23.08

This now leaves them £75.59

They then have their water rates. These cost £377 per year. Weekly, this comes to £7.25p

Our imaginary family now has £68.34p left.

Then they have their TV license. A colour TV Licence costs £145.50.
Per week, this is £2.80p.

Now our imaginary family has £65.54p remaining.

Their electricity bills cost £400 per year and their gas bills come in at £300 per year. Their utilities therefore cost them a total of £700 per year.
Per week, this means that they must find £13.46p for these domestic bills.

Our imaginary family is now down to just £52.08p per week.

Now they can start looking after themselves.

Imagining that they will never buy anything except for food (they will soon have to walk around naked everywhere, all the time).

From their £52.08p per week, they have an average of £13.02p per week for each mouth that needs feeding.

Per day, this family - with two people working - will have to feed each person spending no more than £1.86p per person per day.

And that is if they walk around naked for the rest of eternity.

Of course, the figure isn't so glum for the day for the entire family. They have, as a family unit, £7.44p per day for all of their food.

What could that buy them?

We went to Domino's Pizza website. A single pizza - medium cheese and tomato - costs £8.99 delivered to a Manchester postcode.

We did not give our imaginary, forced to walk round naked family a telephone, so they would have to order it by carrier pigeon.

Even then, our imaginary family - forced to walk around naked - can no longer afford to share a pizza as their solitary meal per day.

And do remember, we gave our imaginary family the ultra economy council tax band B which probably applies to a one bedroom flat rather than a suitable family house. They should, in a 'Band E' property, be paying £685.70p more per year than we charged them. Had we used this figure, they would have had £38.89p per week to feed themselves - £5.55p for each day's total family food, or £1.39p per person, per day. If they walk round naked.

-

With all that in mind, what does Mr. Osborne propose? Where will our imaginary naked family live? On an internment camp? Or maybe they should join the lines for a soup kitchen?

And if they cannot afford to pay the social housing rent, who will live there?

Our imaginary couple, working, bringing up two kids, with jobs that we mere mortals are given can't afford it, Georgie Boy.

There are our figures. You tell them where they should live.

Tent in a field, perhaps? We suspect someone has already made that illegal.

Don't worry, though. We're sure that the globalist bankers, the climate change fraudsters and the European Union will find more ways of reducing the money our family will have left to not be able to afford a pizza.

Nope. Sorry. We will join the Leftists on any march against this one.

UKIP MEP Tells European Empire: "We do not and will not recognise" Lisbon Treaty

This is the second time in the space of a few days where we've picked up on and highlighted the work of UKIP MEP Trevor Colman.

We know that our readership consists of quite a few UKIP folk, so if someone knows Trevor, give him a pat on the back and say "bravo" to him from us, would you?

The following is pretty brill, huh?

We'd have added a list of the ways in which all of the European treaties are null and void in our country under the terms of our WRITTEN (yes it is) constitution.

But for someone who only gets sixty precious seconds to speak to the Empire, we think he covered the main point (naff off) pretty darn well. What do you reckon?

We can't think of many better examples of the point being made more firmly and concisely.

Well, there was this, of course:

H/T: Independence Home

Post Script: I notice that Tim Congdon is being described as UKIP's economics spokesman. Brilliant. I just wonder when that happened? Was he always? Or is this a new thing?

Civil liberties: The ConDems become ZaNuLiebour II

Well, we have already seen the bogus public consultation exercise asking us which bad laws (statutes, actually) we, the people wanted to have repealed... a consultation which Nick Clegg inadvertently but kindly exposed as being nothing but a sham PR-exercise.

Yet how big a sham and bogus image deal, we're only just beginning to learn.

The Daily Mail lead the way with this one today, reporting how: "Hugely controversial ‘Big Brother’ plans to store details of every internet click, email and telephone call that we make are being revived by the Coalition, it emerged last night."

So much for restoring civil liberties!

Is there anything that these parties ever keep a word on?

Cast Iron David Cameron was already a busted flush over his empty European Empire rhetoric.

Now this.

How long did this take? Five months?

Five months in which we've seen two diametrically opposed parties - the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats - seamlessly merge into a homogeneous, principle devoid goo of vacuousness.

And now, the two together have decided to incorporate the worst of ZaNuLiebour into their conduct in office, too.

This really is a totalitarian, one party state.

Every five years, we get ten seconds where we get to make a pencilled 'X' mark onto a piece of paper. That passes as power to the people.

Then the party (or parties, now) which get the most pencil scrawled 'X' marks do what the bloody hell they want anyway and it has little or no resemblance to anything that was in their manifesto.

They really are all the same party. It's actually now just hilarious.

It's also hilarious that the Government think we don't know that they're cataloguing everything we say or do anyway.

Of course they have great ruddy files on each and every one of us already. You'd be an idiot to imagine otherwise.

This is just an exercise in trying to legitimise what they're already doing.

Come on - do you really imagine that a political blog isn't watched?

Or that any campaign group that you're a member of hasn't been infiltrated or is at least watched very closely?

The people in Vauxhall (who are actually on the other side of the river, but why shatter the myth?) no doubt have masses of files on all of us already.

No, the story here isn't the not-shocking abuse of our freedoms and liberties...

...the story here is the unmasking of the one party, totalitarian state which we really live under.

Farage provokes poor, deluded Barroso into admitting that he actually thinks he's been elected...

We're all, no doubt, concentrating on news of what we can no longer afford as a nation with announcements which are reverberating across the land from the Pantomime Parliament at Westminster.

Which is all very interesting. There were two budget announcements today. The one huge set - of British cuts - you know about.

The other?

Let's hear it from Conservative MEP Daniel Hannan. He says: "At the very moment that the Chancellor was on his feet in the House of Commons, MEPs were voting for a substantial increase in EU spending. An increase, that is, over and above the rise already built into the 2011 budget."

Want to see the figures that come with that? Here's Dan's blog post on the matter.

Meanwhile, nice to see UKIP's Nigel Farage socking the "taxation without representation" line to the assembled Brusselitariat.

His speech provoked one of the most bizarre utterances one could imagine. Stay with the following clip until the end. Almost as it finishes, you will see Jose Manuel Barroso get to his feet and claim to have been elected!

Elected by whom, sir? Your European Empire colleagues? In a secret ballot?

You have not been elected by the PEOPLE of Europe, have you, you deluded and arrogant twerp?

And therein we have a master demonstration of everything that is wrong with the European Empire.

They actually think that the very fact that they go around appointing each other into jobs in this undemocratic institution legitimises their existence.

Deluded, arrogant and repulsive.

UPDATE: Delighted to see Alex Jones has just picked up on this story, almost exactly as we told it. No hat-tip for us, but never mind. And Nigel Farage goes global again...

Freemen, libertarians and constitutionalists: Now is the time to prepare for the Great British Renaissance

You do not have to be Newton or Faraday in order to spot the way of things - that the proverbial hit the fan a couple of years ago and - far from recovering - we're about three quarters of the way around the U-bend.

Quite how heavy a turd we're in will no doubt become clearer later today.

Many commentators and observers think we ain't seen nothing yet.

Which got me thinking.

There is no doubt that we are living through a historic chapter.

Reading what my fellow Brits have to say on internet forum after newspaper comments box after blogpost, there does seem to be a general opinion that we have lived through the death of a nation. Or, at least, the very slow lingering death of a nation. Our own.

But, in nature, there is a cycle - birth, death and rebirth.

If the corrupt political elite and the globalists have killed our once great nation, it is a time for optimism - a time for planning for the rebirth.

While we mere members of the public watch with disbelief as the castle built by the corrupt crumbles into the sandy beach upon which their illegitimate power and wealth was constructed, we can at least take the time to plan ahead.

After such turbulent times, there is always this rebirth - a Renaissance.

It is up to us - the freemen, libertarians and constitutionalists who frequent this blog - to plan now for the next Great British Renaissance.

As the Towers of Babel crash around the heads of the corrupt, it is time for us to start preparing to restore order from chaos; by extolling the virtues of those things that made us Great in the first place.

So, what are those things? Where we can all agree is on the constitution - the Bill of Rights, the Magna Carta, Habeas Corpus - and on the principles of common law.

I think it is wonderful seeing so many of my fellow British citizens - concerned patriots all - filling every possible mainstream media forum with the word "treason" and raising awareness of what has been done against us by the corrupt elite in power.

Our next step is to add to that by explaining far and wide the values of freedom and liberty, the protections and wisdoms contained in our written constitution. To go out and explain the principles of common law and how they - and they alone - are the principles which should govern our lives.

Times are rough. True. Yet these turbulent times present an opportunity.

As we sit quite helpless, watching the corrupt structures fall into the footprint of their own impossibly built design, there will be pain and there will be difficulties for all of us.

What a wonderful opportunity to go out and explain to people how things that we did as a nation before corruption set in - our glorious common law and our fantastic constitution - were so much better; that they represent freedom and liberty and should be defended at all costs to prevent future generations from ever having to live through this chaos ever again.

Our forefathers bequeathed to us some incredible gifts and we are witnessing what they tried to prevent. Somewhere along the line, our forefathers - noble and wise men whose names spring forward from the pages of Great British history books - have been let down. Their gifts to us have not been used wisely.

But with a bit of effort and talk amongst ourselves, the precious value of those gifts could well be the first heartbeat of the next Great British Renaissance.

Westminster: Diagnosed as stricken with Brusselitis infection? Auditors say 'non!' to MPs accounts.

Good grief. After the expenses furore, it couldn't possibly get worse for our treacherous pantomime parliament, could it?

Possibly it could, yes.

The Daily Telegraph reports that: "The House of Commons has been unable to produce its annual accounts for last year because auditors are concerned about “missing documentation” to justify MPs’ expenses claims."

Now, it comes as no great surprise when auditors refuse to sign off on the accounts of the European Empire. Having refused to do so for fifteen years in a row, it is what one comes to expect.

But now we have the same situation with the House of Commons..?

Can you imagine...

Do we have any sole traders or small businessmen who have been harassed into complete misery over a hundred quid or two? Probably.

Yeah, but man-on-the-street is just the silly bugger who bankrolls the entire web of corruption which stretches across the globe.

You, dear slave, will do as you're flipping well told - or else!

Brussels, Westminster, climate change fraudsters, Big Pharma and the World Health Organisation, global banksters... hell, they do what they want with impunity.

Got that? Now, get to work and give them everything you earn... slave!

They must have your money to find new ways of spying on you and cataloguing your every move and conversation because, obviously, you the taxpayer are far more likely to have something to hide than the 100%, not corrupt... 'honest!', political class and their globalist puppetmasters, huh?

Beyond belief. Really.

Taxed Enough Already? No, EU're not... apparently

So, we're all skint. The country has been looted by the bankers.

Public services are being cut because of what the bankers and the globalists did.

People are losing their homes, their jobs and their quality of life is diminishing because of what the bankers and the globalists did.

And now, in a perfectly ill-timed bit of lunacy from the idiotic globalists in Brussels, comes back those plans for a direct EU taxation.

The Daily Express front page above says all you need to know. Find out what Bill Cash, Douglas Carswell and UKIP's very own Marta Andreasen have to say on the matter by clicking here.

So, Britain... is direct taxation by the European Empire enough to kickstart that million man march on Westminster demanding our country back?

Or shall we wait until armed foreign police are on our streets before we raise more than a pipsqueak of whinging..?

Only, correct me if I'm wrong - oh, wiser heads than mine - but, by definition, isn't the death of Britain final and complete once the European Empire starts with direct taxation..?

Taxation which would be, of course, without representation...

Globalist banker looting of British taxpayer leads to death of Princess Diana's biggest humanitarian crusade

We spend BILLIONS bailing out the bankers, we spend BILLIONS being part of the European Empire, we spend £1.2 billion on the fraud that was swine flu, the taxpayer has been robbed blind by MPs with criminally fraudulent expenses claims...

And the result is that we can no longer afford a couple of million (comparative small change) for the anti-personnel landmine clearance project that was so dear to the heart of Diana, Princess of Wales.

The Independent on Sunday reports how: "Leaked DFID documents seen by the IoS shows the UK's funding for de-mining in Angola has already been cut. The department claimed it was not worth bothering to remove mines in remote rural areas."

That the Department for International Development has pulled funding on this humanitarian project is a disgrace.

They would not have dared to do so had Diana not been killed.

So, it's victory for the military industrial complex (enjoy the profits, scumbags?), victory for those in the Conservative Party who hated Diana and her landmines campaign, and 'blood on your hands' if you are a globalist banker or part of Big Pharma.

Sorry, charity begins at home - agreed.

But Diana helped convince me that the devastation brought about by unexploded landmines is a humanitarian cause worth spending a couple of quid on.

Anybody and everybody who has been part of jeopardising the humanitarian work which Diana was a champion of is probably incapable of recognising their role but should feel ashamed of themselves if they could find a conscience, nonetheless.

Bastards, all.

Those who care enough can donate to the Halo Trust by clicking HERE.

Diana's work must continue.

Sunday Paper Review: 17th October 2010

We have to start with one of the most laughable, ideological pieces of nonsense that we've seen written in any newspaper so far this year.

Never one to disappoint, The Observer reports on the protests that are taking place in France.

They claim that the protesters have: "...made the right shiver".

Now - apparently - this is considered a "right wing" blog. We prefer to think of ourselves as a pro-man-on-the-street blog, actually.

But if we wear the "right wing" tag, then - we're sorry to The Observer - but the sight of French protests does not send a shiver down our spine.

In fact, we hope that the cumulative effect of protests that seem to be taking place in every single (former) nation of Europe leads to the downfall of the European Empire and the restoration of nation states, sovereignty, civil liberties and freedoms.

We couldn't care less who brings it down. If it's protesting Frenchmen, Greek students or Portuguese trade unionists, then good luck to them. They'll have our thanks. We couldn't care less.

We do not adopt an ideological position on some bullshit basis of 'left' and 'right'.

Our ideological basis is purely about liberty and freedom.

Still, thanks for the laugh... you numpties.

Onto more serious things.

Hate to say we told you so, but... we told you so! Trust Alex Jones and David Icke... they'll see you right. Why do we say so?

Well, shock and horror! - not - the Mail on Sunday reports that: "Health chiefs have for the first time acknowledged that the swine flu jab may be linked to an increased risk of developing a deadly nerve condition."

The report continues: "Experts are examining a pos­sible association between the controversial jab and Guillain-Barre Syndrome, according to a report from official watchdog the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA)."

Oh, right. Just like we warned readers in July last year, after following our instincts and researching the historic cases of 1976 highlighted by David Icke and Alex Jones you mean?

Amazing. Still, anyone struck down as a result of the vaccine should be content in knowing that Big Pharma and their globalist enablers made an awful lot of money out of the global pandemic that never was. Hey, globalist criminal scumbags have to eat, too!

Here's another interesting piece of detail. The Sunday Express claims that the four alleged 7/7 terrorists might have had more people involved in their activities.

As a self proclaiming cynic about the incident, it's a response of "no sh*t, Sherlock!" from us.

And what really makes us laugh our conspiracy spotting little socks off?

This bit from the story: "...the inquest had been told that four of the men got into a light blue car and the others got into a white car and the vehicles drove off at the same time."

The reports goes on to tell us that, according to one of the barristers: "The whitish car is not seen again, but if there was one there must be a strong suspicion that its occupants must have known what was going on. Inquiries made by the inquest team of the Metropolitan Police have disclosed that extensive enquiries were made by the police to identify, trace and locate the white vehicle and its occupants, but they all proved negative."

Last time we read that, was after they'd bumped a genuinely loved Princess off in a tunnel in Paris.

Goodness sake... or were we not supposed to spot that? Oh hum, too late.

The expenses scandal just keeps on rolling. Today, the Sunday Telegraph reveals that three peers are "expected to be officially recommended for censure" and "face suspension" after their claims were investigated by a House authority. And, after our observation that it is mostly Labour MPs who are on the receiving end of police interest and court trials, guess what? That's right. Two of the three peers at the centre of these fresh expenses allegations in the story today are Labour peers. The third is a cross-bencher... who has donated to Labour.

What? And some of you lot wanted these types of characters rather than hereditary peers? The country was run so much better when we had a few inbred Lords of the Manor looking after the national interest. Or is that just the romantic in me?

And finally... the News of the World has gone behind a paywall. So, goodbye to their relevance! We're sure we can find our mucky pictures and football reports elsewhere...

Lord Monckton on Alex Jones, October 2010

Just before we post this, we are not connected to Lord Monckton. Don't know him. Never met him. But we would buy him a pint if we did, or when we do...

Memo to British Armed Forces: Defend the National Constitution and we don't mind any "revolt" you stage...

You know, sometimes mainstream news stories don't quite measure up to the promise they excitedly introduce themselves with in their preceding headline.

Or do they?

We were, at first, rather disappointed to discover that the Daily Telegraph's reference to a British "military revolt" was not - in fact - our brave servicemen and women marching into Whitehall and rounding up everybody who had committed treason in successive Parliaments since 1972 by signing us up to the European Empire.

Nor were the military rounding up the globalist bankers who have fleeced the taxpayers and who - together with New Labour (socialists with a taste for champagne and caviar) - have left the national finances crippled.

A bit of a shame that the military weren't doing that. Yet.

Instead, it was a story about budget arguments.

However... I know this is wishful thinking, but look at this sentence which doesn't seem even partially explained:

"Mr Cameron’s intervention followed a day of threats from senior defence figures."

Wonder what they threatened..?

Anyway, whatever it was, if it was any form of meaningful action they'll have to do it soon... before the British armed forces are mostly made redundant and absorbed into a fully fledged European Empire command and control the populace force.

There was a time when, in defence of democracy and the ballot box, I would have been very concerned about the very notion of any national military forces overthrowing democratically elected Governments.

However...

Our democracy is a joke; most of our laws come from the European Empire; we have had forty years of treacherous Government signing away our national sovereignty with barely concealed lies; the three main parties do not represent their constituents but - instead - represent big globalists, bankers, fake charities and secret organisations such as the Bilderberg Group...

...so, we couldn't care less if our Armed Forces did ever decide to march down Whitehall.

If they spend two weeks kicking a few traitors out of the corridors of power and restoring national sovereignty and defending the national constitution, I'd probably dig out a union flag and cheer them on, to be honest.

Provided it was just a two or three week stop gap to allow we, the people to actually regain our country and reinstate the national constitution complete with all of it's liberties and freedoms, they'd have our blessing.

Well, we can but dream.

And before anybody thinks that we're out on a limb making a controversial post, go round every mainstream newspaper's comment boxes. A sizable number of British people are now evidently awake (or at least awakening) and they now are starting to view the political class with utter contempt. The word "treason" is becoming a more and more common word, no matter which newspaper forum you look at. Many now know that treason has been and is being committed, that's why.

So, for Queen and Country; for sovereignty and the national constitution... we're with the British armed forces. They're probably our last hope against corruption and tyranny.

Shame things have got so far that we doubt we're alone in these sentiments - far from it, we suspect.

Wicked Whispers - Bilderberg and the EU-sceptics (a 'welcome to our blog' teaser)

Thanks to forum members today posting links to the same blog post here at The Talking Clock, we would like to welcome visitors from DavidIcke.com and The Daily Bell to our humble little, patriotic libertarian abode.

As a welcome 'gift', a little gift teaser to which - sadly - we will not give you the answer.

However, the question is this...

Which two prominent British EU-sceptic politicians from DIFFERENT political parties could confirm that they have had representatives of the Bilderberg Group sniffing around them while on duty at the EU..?

And which one of them knows enough to have told the other to keep well away?

It is a question which we shall forever leave cryptically dangling... unless they ever go public with it.

...but it is a true story.

Quote of the Day: '9/11 Food For Thought' edition

"CNN is now reporting that there was a third explosion at the World Trade Center, probably an explosion from the ground that caused World Trade Center 1 to collapse on top of itself. Again there was a third explosion, it is unclear what caused it, whether it was a bomb or whether the first plane that crashed into the tower had somehow been booby trapped with a bomb that was timed to explode later after the crash had occurred. But CNN is reporting that there was a third explosion that caused World Trade Center 1 to collapse within itself."

- CBS 2 reporter Marcia Kramer (hat-tip: PrisonPlanet.com)

And, if that needs you to hear it to believe it...

Now, it could just have been a mistake. Like this one where the phrase: "It's behind you!?" becomes bizarrely significant - because behind our dear BBC reporter is... the building that she is telling the world has collapsed.

It hadn't. Though the building concerned - WTC7 aka the Salomon Building - then DOES collapse twenty minutes later. You couldn't script it, could you?

Still, it could all be a honest mistake... maybe:

Dunno what you think. Here's a view. We're not saying they're right or wrong, but here's their case...

Hey Britain... look at how OUR written constitution is working... in the United States!

We keep banging on about our written constitution and the treason laws.

We'll keep on doing so.

As many people will know - but not as many as should - the American constitution was based very much our OUR written national constitution.

Yes, written. Just because our written constitution is written across a handful of documents does not mean it is not written. It is written. Hence we can all quote from it.

But, of course, 'let's pretend it's not written' think the powers that be. That way, they think they can do whatever they flipping like.

Such as committing the unlawful act of signing away the people's sovereignty and infringing on our liberties and freedoms enshrined in our constitution.

Yet so great was OUR written constitution that it got shipped out to the United States.

And now Obama is finding that he can't necessarily simply ignore it.

Reuters reports on how a Florida judge has rejected an attempt by the U.S. Government to have a case brought by twenty states against 'Obamacare' thrown out.

The twenty states claim that 'Obamacare' breaches the constitution in the way that it imposes taxes and - amongst other things - by forcing citizens to purchase particular products.

Now, it does not even matter whether the plucky twenty win their case or not.

The fact is that the American constitution was written by visionary leaders who sought to protect their children, grandchildren and all future generations from tyranny.

They wrote their constitution basing their wisdom on OUR written documents.

Now, our written constitution states - amongst other things - that spot fines are unlawful. You cannot fine someone unless they have faced a jury of their peers.

It also states - in our view - that the European Empire is null and void.

What we're seeing in the United States is a strong defence of the constitution.

There's an inspiring group in the U.S. called 'Oath Keepers' who are "a non-partisan association of currently serving military, reserves, National Guard, veterans, Peace Officers, and Fire Fighters who will fulfill the Oath we swore, with the support of like minded citizens who take an Oath to stand with us, to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic, so help us God. Our Oath is to the Constitution."

The U.S. constitution is OUR flipping constitution too... and it's about time we had some oath keepers here in Britain.

Most Parliamentarians since 1972 should be up on charges of treason for their role in betraying our national sovereignty.

And when we say "our", we do means that of we, the people.

British national sovereignty belongs to us - the people - and it is not in the gift of Parliament to give it away without our say so.

Anything they have signed contrary to our constitution and common law is, in our view, null and void.

And, just like those U.S. states, we need some oathkeepers to start taking down all European Union legislation and all civil liberty and freedom abuses - using our written constitution and treason laws to do so.

"The United Kingdom will be unable to withdraw from" participation in the European Investigation Order - it's a 'Britain forever under tyranny' deal, apparently.

Where's Guy Fawkes when you need him?

Lord Stoddart of Swindon has received a written reply to his question to the Government over the European Investigation Order.

Baroness Neville-Jones tells him: "The European Investigation Order is not an agreement between national Governments but a draft directive of the European Union. Consequently, as and when agreed, the United Kingdom will be unable to withdraw from the directive."

Better Off Out has the rest of the story.

The European Investigation Order is a huge negative against our civil liberties, enshrined in our written national constitution.

What was that about no Parliament being able to bind it's successor?

The Bill of Rights 1689 is always ignored, even though it cannot be as it contains a specific clause stating that it stands for all time:

"All which their Majestyes are contented and pleased shall be declared enacted and established by authoritie of this present parliament and shall stand remaine and be the law of this realme forever."

The Bill of Rights 1689 states that: "And I do declare that no foreign prince, person, prelate, state or potentate hath or ought to have any jurisdiction, power, superiority, pre-eminence or authority, ecclesiastical or spiritual, within this realm. So help me God."

The Bill of Rights therefore says that the European Empire is not valid here.

They can't have it both ways. They can't say the European Investigation Order stays forever and yet say the Bill of Rights 1689 - part of our written constitution - doesn't count.

The Bill of Rights 1689 is the written national constitution document that I was born under, and it's the one which I will seek to uphold as an Englishman.

Not some Brussels crap.

So naff off, treacherous Government. You are not a Parliament. You are a pantomime.

And a treacherous, undemocratic one at that. As Lord Stoddart notes: "The Government has over-ridden Parliament so that there has been no discussion in either House on a directive with very serious implications for the British people. So much for Parliamentary sovereignty!"

And as for Brussels? Definitely naff off.

Will the last Labour Party politician to be referred to the police please remember to apologise for their party signing the Lisbon Treaty?

Oh dear.

Yet another Labour MP has been referred to the police over their expense claims.

This time, it's former Europe Minister Denis MacShane.

We won't comment on his individual case - read the story on any of the mainstream news sources including the Daily Telegraph and the Evening Standard.

Now, we may be wrong here... but isn't this all following a pattern?

From memory, there was one Conservative peer (Lord Hanningfield) who the police showed an interest in and who is to face court.

Haven't the rest of them all been Labour?

Elliot Morley, David Chaytor, Jim Devine - all Labour, all set to face the courts.

Then came Eric Illsley - Labour.

Yesterday, the Daily Telegraph had a report about former Labour MP Margaret Moran and police interest in her expenses.

Why is it that so many of these MPs where the police are interested enough - and in some cases it's now as far as in the hands of the courts - are all Labour Party MPs..?

Will the Metropolitan Police be accused of being politically biased against Labour?

Only that would be laughable. Especially as we even have Labour peers demanding that the Commons authorities send them to court rather than repaying what was asked of them.

And if not political bias against Labour by the police and the prosecution authorities, then what questions do Labour Party supporters have to ask themselves?

All very well the Labour Party withdrawing the whip once the police become interested. Too late. The association is already there.

Still, it's not just Labour MPs who get arrested. They just seem to be the politicians being arrested over expense claims. MPs from other parties do get arrested for questioning over other matters - though we hasten to add that questions are not an indicator of guilt.

Occasionally - well, under the last, totalitarian Labour Government, anyway - we even saw MPs getting arrested in politically motivated moves which Mugabe would be proud of.

Our bafflement when it comes to Members of Parliament is that nobody has yet been arrested under the Treason Laws or for contravening the written national constitution.

So, may we in the meantime ask any Labour MPs who were in Government and who do not get arrested for their expense claims to apologise for their part in the signing of the Lisbon Treaty which - we assert - was signed in contravention of the Treason Felony Act 1848 and in contravention of the written constitutional document that is the Bill of Rights 1689..?

If the police would like some assistance in who to question for the high crime of treason, may we refer them to the excellent former Special Constable, Albert Burgess?

We remind you again of the text of the Treason Felony Act 1848:

"If any person whatsoever shall, within the United Kingdom or without, compass, imagine, invent, devise, or intend to deprive or depose our Most Gracious Lady the Queen, from the style, honour, or royal name of the imperial crown of the United Kingdom, or of any other of her Majesty’s dominions and countries, or to levy war against her Majesty, within any part of the United Kingdom, in order by force or constraint to compel her to change her measures or counsels, or in order to put any force or constraint upon or in order to intimidate or overawe both Houses or either House of Parliament, or to move or stir any foreigner or stranger with force to invade the United Kingdom or any other of her Majesty’s dominions or countries under the obeisance of her Majesty, and such compassings, imaginations, inventions, devices, or intentions, or any of them, shall express, utter, or declare, by publishing any printing or writing . . . . . . F3 or by any overt act or deed, every person so offending shall be guilty of felony, and being convicted thereof shall be liable . . . . . . F4 to be transported beyond the seas for the term or his or her natural life . . . . . . "

How Parliament voted against Douglas Carswell's attempt to stop the Government giving away shedloads more of your money to the European Empire

Late last night, we were very focused on what happened with the attempt to get a debate on the smoking ban.

There was, however, an even bigger vote that took place in the House of Commons yesterday.

The MP most loved by this blog - Conservative MP Douglas Carswell - had tabled an amendment to the Draft EU Budget 2011.

His amendment called on the Government to: "...leave out from 'the financial year 2011' to end and add 'is concerned at the above-inflation increase being made to Britain's EU budget contribution; believes that, at a time when the Government is poised to make reductions in public spending elsewhere, it is wrong to increase that contribution; and calls on the Government to reduce Britain's EU budget contribution'."

That amendment was defeated with a vote count of Ayes 42, Noes 252.

So, only 42 MPs were brave enough to stand up for UK taxpayers. 252 MPs - by opposing the amendment - in effect approved of us all being ripped off in order to fund the undemocratic European Empire.

In his speech supporting his amendment, Carswell outlined the position as follows:

"All hon. Members face spending cuts in their constituencies-cuts that none of us wanted and cuts made all the more painful by the economic downturn. With the exceptions of health care and overseas aid, every Government Department is looking for budget reductions of between 25 and 40%. At the same time, however, our net contributions to the EU are rising by 60% over the next two years-from £6.4 billion this year to £8.3 billion in 2011-12 and to £10.3 billion in 2015.

Our gross contributions, of course, are higher still. Currently £13.3 billion, they are scheduled to rise to £19 billion. Although it is true that some of that money is spent in the United Kingdom, it is by no means always spent on projects that we ourselves would have chosen to spend it on. In any case, normal practice in politics is to measure what people actually pay rather than to deduct the notional cost of services they receive in return. Would any Member argue that the basic rate of income tax is not 20p in the pound but zero, on the grounds that the entire sum is given back in the form of roads, schools, hospitals and so forth?

The sum of £19 billion is, of course, colossal-enough to give the entire country a 50% rebate on council tax in perpetuity or to pay off our Olympic debt in a single year. The scope of amendment (b), however, is not nearly so ambitious. It would not strike out the entire EU budget-it is not about that-and it would not even strike out the increase in the year-on-year EU budget. All this modest proposal is designed to do is to reject the additional sum that the European Commission demanded over and above the increases already built into the 2011 budget.

At a time when every one of the 27 member state Governments are struggling to find savings, the EU must show some willingness if not to reduce its budget, at the very least to be satisfied by the increases we have already given it. Why has the EU come back on 15 September and asked for more resources? The Commission has been admirably frank that the additional funds are earmarked for three institutions: the European External Action Service, Europol, and the three supervisory agencies that will regulate financial services. I remind Members that the European External Action Service is the EU's diplomatic corps. It already has about 20 times the budget of our Foreign and Commonwealth Office.

Europol is the EU's police agency, and the three new supervisory agencies have been widely denounced as likely to drive revenue away from the City of London to non-EU financial centres.

In other words, we are being asked for this extra money in order to fund three projects that are not in the interests of this country to start with. How much is the bill? To be precise, the EU has awarded itself a €3.6 billion budget increase this year, and Britain's share of that increase-not its share of the budget-is £380 million. The bail-outs and the financial stimuli around the world have, of course, recalibrated our sense of monetary value, but even by today's standards we are talking about significant sums. Given this morning's headlines about the pressure on public sector jobs, it might be helpful to calculate how that £380 million could be translated into Government spending. It would pay for 6,022 NHS doctors, 12,666 NHS nurses, 14,600 police constables, or 22,332 Army privates.

The purpose of the legislature is to control the Executive. In the last analysis, that is why we are all here. The additional work that we do in scrutinising laws, taking up cases for our constituents and participating in debates is valuable, but essentially supplementary. When we strip it down, we see that Parliament exists to ensure that the Government do not spend our money wrong-headedly. That has been the elementary function of our predecessors since the Tudors, if not the Plantagenets."

Sounds like good grounds to stand up and make a stand against increasing the EU budget vastly to me.

So, we give praise to the 42 MPs who thought that the amendment in defence of the UK taxpayer was a sensible move. They were:

AYES

Baron, Mr John (Conservative)

Stuart, Mr Graham (Conservative)

Turner, Mr Andrew (Conservative)

Vickers, Martin (Conservative)

Walker, Mr Charles (Conservative)

Tellers for the Ayes:
Mr Peter Bone and
Mr Philip Hollobone

So, let's examine the numbers.

Those supporting the very sensible amendment and therefore attempting to protect the UK taxpayer from the European Empire's cash cow were:

Conservative 35
Labour 5
LibDem 0 (that's right, not one of 'em)
DUP 2

Now you might, reasonably, look favourably upon the Conservatives when seeing these stats. However, let us remember that those 35 MPs make up just 11% of the Parliamentary Conservative Party.

It should additionally be noted that: "the Government accepted an amendment by Tory Bill Cash (Stone), chairman of the Commons European Scrutiny Committee, calling on the Government "to reject European Parliament proposals to increase the budget"."

So, just a long list of idiots to provide.

These are the 252 MPs who decided to oppose and stop Douglas Carswell's very sensible attempt to protect the UK taxpayer from the European Empire.

If any of them talk about budget cuts in your constituency, you might want to tell them to naff off with their hypocrisy...

The 252 who want you to keep on paying through the nose for the undemocratic European Empire are:
