A very interesting article which shows the British Empire in all it's shame.

Celtic's Green Brigade's Peaceful Protest. Saturday 16th March.

This is a video that shows Strathclyde police up for what they are rapidly becoming. That is, a political tool to be used to stifle freedom on the streets. It is a fundamental right to be able to peacefully protest as long as there is no violence, or intimidation used by the protesters.
The people protesting were members of the Glasgow Celtic supporters group, The Green Brigade. The vast majority of the around 1,000 people were under the age of 25. They were protesting about the anti sectarian law that was passed a few years ago, and the way the law was being interpreted by the authorities to put an end to street protests. the actions of the police last Saturday, 16th March, were heavy handed to say the least and according to witnesses, downright barbaric. My own view is that this is part of the governments plan to further erode our personal freedoms. The Green Brigade are themselves being used by the police to falsely highlight a fictitious public order problem. Don't get me wrong, Glasgow does have a sectarian problem of long standing, but to my knowledge The Green Brigade have only been sighted once for any sectarian incident, and that has been proven to have been a fabrication in the extreme. To sum up. The police are maliciously targeting The Green Brigade with a view to provoking a violent reaction and to their credit, The Green Brigade members have not taken the bait. long may it continue. I am sure their will be more to say on this issue.

UK Press Regulation.

Britain's three horsemen of the apocalypse, David Cameron, Ed Miliband and Nick Clegg, yesterday, agreed to take the first step towards complete control of the press by agreeing to appoint a press regulator by Royal Charter. The regulator is to be independent of government which is a load of crap because he or she will be appointed by the aforesaid government and therefore cannot be called independent. The government of the day, be it Tory, Lib Dem or Labour will then be able to censor all press stories that they deem to be sensitive or anti-government. The whole Leveson enquiry was a complete farce from the start and was designed to lead us to this very scenario. A group was formed by so called activists called "The Hacked Off Campaign" that turned out to be connected to the Media Standards Trust and also to the pseudo political charity, Common Purpose. In reality they were a pressure group formed to push and lobby government ministers into arriving at this very decision.
The upshot is that we have taken a step into the murky waters of government censorship which starts with the press and then proceeds to media and internet, including bloggers and really anyone who posts anything online. Freedom has once again been compromised in the guise of "protecting" the public from "rogue journalists."

The British Lack of Justice System.

Yesterday the British justice was shown up for what it was, one level of justice for the privileged, and one for the not so privileged. Ex MP and government minister Chris Huhne and his ex wife Vicky Pryce were sentenced for perverting the course of justice. The sentences in my mind were totally inadequate for the crime that was committed. They were both sentenced to eight months in prison, however, that does not mean that they will actually spend eight months in prison. They could both be freed after just four months, and not only that, they could be out in two months to serve the rest of their sentence at home with an electronic tag attached to a leg. This case has dragged on for years with both Huhne and his ex consistently lying under oath. Eight years might have been more appropriate. I'm surprised they weren't tried in one of the secret courts that his party (Lib Dem) voted for last week. Business minister, Vince Cable said that the sentences were sad. Yes sad that they were not extensive enough.

Hugo Chavez, Banks, Secret Courts.

With the death of Hugo Chavez, the US, UK, IMF etc. will reckon they will be able to move into Venezuela and loot the oil and mineral resources of the country and then use the IMF to totally in debt the population for decades to come. Hopefully, Chavez successor will be strong enough to stand up to the likes of Obama and continue the good work started by Hugo Chavez. This will be a story worth following. RIP Hugo, you were a man of the people.
UK news now and the outgoing head of the Bank of England, Mervyn King said today at the enquiry into banking standards that banks were too important to fail. My answer to him is that he is talking a load of rubbish. I had a house with a mortgage provided by Northern Rock. When they got into trouble through incompetence they were bailed out using taxpayers, my, money. When I got into financial trouble, my own fault, was I given any help? No, my house was repossessed and I was made homeless. To say that I have no sympathy for the banking sector would be putting it mildly. banks should be treated no differently to other businesses. When they fail, they should be allowed to go under.
The UK parliament voted on Monday to extend the use of secret courts. That is courts where there is no jury present, no journalists and no public observers present. The Lib Dems voted with the Tories on this which was contrary to their election manifesto pledge to block the rise of secret courts. his country is turning into a dictatorship. Slowly but surely the power in the UK is being centralised. The agenda of the government however is to then pass powers over to the EU parliament. Our armed forces are being cut to dangerous levels that make it uncertain that we have enough personnel to defend the country. If however you look at it from an EU perspective, we have enough personnel to provide forces for a combined EU defence force. Our country and every other country in the EU is going through the same agenda's. A federal Europe is the goal in the short term. The long term is a one world government. Don't just take my word for it, do some research yourselves.

The Irish Don't Care About Children.

Last November, despite fears that children would be forcibly taken from families and adopted by specially chosen "parents" only 33.5% of the voting population could be bothered to get up from their couches and vote. This leads me to believe that he Irish don't care what happens to their children. The vote, unfortunately passed by a majority of 58%. This kind of thing is already happening in the UK, the difference being, we didn't get a vote and the vast majority of the population don't believe forced adoption is taking place in the UK. I hate to burst your bubble, it is, so wake up and smell the corruption. The term "secret family courts" would be a good place to start.

The Same Sex Marriage Distraction

It seems that the entire focus of the political media and press for the last two weeks has been the debate about same sex marriage. I don't want to offend but, I feel that there are far more important issues facing the UK than same sex weddings. This country has the highest rate of youth unemployment in the G8. Thousands of families in this country are being forced to rely on "food banks" to feed themselves. We are on the brink of a triple dip recession, although when did we ever truly come out of the first recession? Our troops are still dying in the hopeless and never ending war in Afghanistan. Cameron has designs on Mali's natural resources and wants to intervene in Syria. I could go on about criminal banks, disgraced criminal MP's, not to mention the Metropolitan Police admitting that the identity of dead children were given to undercover policemen without consent of the parents. This country is in total disarray and yet all the focus is on same sex marriage.
My point other than a level of importance for these issues is, what are the authorities trying to distract us from? Or, is this issue yet another attempt by the criminal elite to undermine the traditional idea of a family, ie. Man, woman and children. You may not believe me, but there is a move to negate the value of the traditional family and gay people are unwittingly being used by the elite to drive a wedge between the straight and gay communities. They are already well down the road to dividing the various religious communities. The old adage divide and rule most definitely applies and if we do not stay alert, we, ourselves will end up doing the elite's dirty work for them.
I support gay marriage and think that the whole debate should actually have been completed at last nights vote.
