An Open Letter to David Cameron’s Parents

this is great, really pust things in perspective and highlights extreme hypocrisy... Saw it on fb when a friend posted but spookily the link didn't work...



a sample



"Or Hazel Blears, who was interviewed in full bristling peahen mode for almost all of last night. She once forgot which house she lived in, and benefited to the tune of £18,000. At the time she said it would take her reputation years to recover. Unfortunately not.



But, of course, this is different. This is just understandable confusion over the rules of how many houses you are meant to have as an MP. This doesn’t show the naked greed of people stealing plasma tellies."

UK riots, their context and the disturbing response...

http://orwellwasright.wordpress.com/2011/08/10/londons-burning...

an excellent article on the current riot situation in the UK and it's underlying causes. It also highlights the equally distressing broader public reaction, people mindlessly clamouring for martial law, even more of a police state, and further erosion of their human rights



"I used to think that any efforts by the government to bring about a full-blown police state in the UK would meet with failure. I used to think that people were inherently protective of their rights and that they were capable of taking a step back even when presented with something shocking and emotionally charged such as the recent riots and use their common sense to weigh up their response with a sense of proportion. I used to think that there was some truth to the old idiom, “Cooler heads will prevail”. Now it seems painfully clear that, given the right justification, the vast majority of people in this country will welcome a police state with open arms. They don’t care about the real causes of such riots – the huge rise in child poverty, police brutality and rising unemployment rates – which affect communities where such rioting breaks out. That would entail a degree of social responsibility and compassion for those less fortunate which sadly appears completely beyond them."

tottenham riots, police brutality

URL:  http://blog.alexanderhiggins.com/2011/08/09/london-riot...

Ballistic analysis now confirms that the bullet found in the radio was actually fired from a police issued firearms which means that the police shot their own radio to plant evidence to support their story to cover up their brutal execution of the man.



The incident is also a black eye to the corporate media which has ignored numerous reports about the circumstances surrounding the man’s death. Instead they have repeatedly acted as a stenographer for the government reporting the man’s death was a result of a gun fight with the police.

‘Anonymous’ Warns NATO: ‘This Is No Longer Your World’

“do not make the mistake of challenging Anonymous. Do not make the mistake of believing you can behead a headless snake. If you slice off one head of Hydra, ten more heads will grow in its place. If you cut down one Anon, ten more will join us purely out of anger at your trampling of dissent.”

Welcome to Royston … you're under surveillance

"I do think it's important as a country that we don't sleepwalk into a surveillance society," says Heald, "so I can see that you wouldn't want to do this everywhere. But in a town where we've got visiting crime, and which is such an important regional hub, I think there is a case for doing it in Royston."
