Wings Over Scotland


The Canary

Posted on August 31, 2021 by

Her Majesty’s Prisoner No. 157095, or Craig Murray as we still prefer to call him, is a fascinating piece of living evidence of the Kafkaesque country Scotland has become under the despotic rule of Nicola Sturgeon.

Craig has a number of serious medical conditions, one of which causes him frequent dizziness and fainting spells. To gauge their severity (because obviously it’s hard for Craig to judge, given that he’s dizzy and/or fainting at the time), his doctor gave him a device called a pulse oximeter. Depending on the readings from it after an attack, Craig’s life could be in danger and an ambulance should be called.

HMP Edinburgh, however, confiscated the device when he was taken into custody, on the grounds that it uses batteries and batteries could be used for some unspecified nefarious purpose in prison. (Presumably in the rare moments when Craig isn’t getting high from smoking drug-soaked books or running an illegal-postage-stamp empire.)

But because presumably even the Scottish prison authorities realise that it would look quite bad if a political prisoner like Craig died in jail, they did offer him an alternative.

As a civil rather than criminal prisoner – the only one in Saughton, in fact – one of the few privileges is that Craig has a single cell. But to get around the problem of his potentially dying because of the removal of his oximeter, the prison offered Craig a shared cell, on the basis that if he collapsed the other prisoner could call for help.

(We can only assume that HMP Edinburgh has a large number of medically-expert inmates with the ability to accurately judge someone’s blood oxygen level after a fainting fit without any measuring equipment and determine whether emergency intervention is required.)

In the meantime, of course, The Times is merrily serialising a grubby smear of a book which incredibly obviously commits contempt of court at least as serious as that for which Craig is incarcerated. On the test set out by Lady Dorrian – which is that just one person with pre-existing intimate knowledge of one of the accusers might be able to identify them as a complainer from something published in a newspaper or website – a minimum of three Times articles in the four days contain information which enables one or more of the accusers to be easily recognised by anyone who wants to.

But what gets Craig Murray an eight-month prison sentence gets “mainstream” Scottish “journalists” a lucrative book deal instead. We imagine it could get quite interesting if they do a signing tour where people are allowed to ask them questions.

.

As ever, if you can spare a few minutes to write to Craig he very much appreciates your letters, gifts of books etc which help to fill the slow-moving 22.5 hours of every day that he’s locked in his cell.

His address is:

157095 C Murray
G3/34 HM Prison Edinburgh
33 Stenhouse Road
Edinburgh
EH11 3LN

Alternatively you can email him via the officially-sanctioned Email A Prisoner service. This costs 40p per message, but Craig can reply and video chats are even possible (although sending photo attachments is NOT allowed at HMP Edinburgh).

    ‘World leading’

    The Scottish government has previously described its climate change legislation as “world leading.”

    It includes a target to reach net-zero emissions by 2045.

    The legislation was praised as “inspiring” by the UN’s climate chief Patricia Espinosa.

    Ministers say they recognise that every country needs to do more while the Scottish Greens say they agree that systemic change is necessary.

    The Times and its journalists are part of the establishment, and will not suffer any consequences as such. as for Craig Murray, and the removal of his very important oximeter, one can only suggest that its a very keen reading of prison rules, especially for a unwell civic prison.

    Between Marion Millar, Craig Murray and the constant smearing of Alex Salmond, Scotland has become an odious little tinpot state under the dictatorship of Sturgeon.

    Sturgeon can’t even defend her own party MSP’s and MP’s such as now not an MSP Joan McAlpine who received death threats, and dogs abuse, the latter from her own party colleagues, and Joanna Cherry whose also received the same as McAlpine.

    Anyone would have no problem in taking over this country because there would be no resistance because people are so indoctrinated into doing as they are told by our propaganda producing MSM they might moan a bit but most will do exactly what they are told without question,

    Sturgeon could say as of Midnight tonight all red heads need to report local cop shop because they pose a threat to the community by having a high level of Covid present and because of their skin pigmentation makes them more susceptible to the plague and I bet most would conform and do as they are told it’s not people who are resisting all these soul crushing instructions passed under emergency legislation it’s the majority who are allowing governments to do exactly what they want , Wakey fkn Wakey people .

    I think I read somewhere that AS has reported the forthcoming Clegg and Anderson book, as serialised in The Sunday Times, to the Police. Anyone know anything about this? Did AS report the two of them,, and/or the Times, for publishing material that will make jigsaw identification of the protected witnesses possible? Not just possible, but no doubt much easier to do than it ever was by simply reading Craig M’s blog)?

    Is this AS’s way of showing support for CM? Thereby showing up the ill-will of the Prosecution Service for its selective prosecution of some, (and its abject failure to investigate others who may be much more culpable of the same supposed offence)?

    The undermining of people’s civil liberties, the apparent prosecution of political opponents, and even the slightest hint of politically motivated collusion between a government executive and the judiciary are always deeply disturbing and dangerous phenomena, no matter where they arise.

    Does Amnesty International still do the sterling work it always used to do on all such issues, everywhere in the world? If so, has anyone called them in? To have a look at what seems to be happening right here and now, under our very noses?

    The more it happens, the more it will keep happening, and it will become worse and worse, until the sleep-walking population eventually wakes up – too late – to discover itself bedded down in the quagmire in which it has acquiesced, and from which it will be unable to rise.

    Acquiescence = self-imposed chains and slavery.

    Independence means freedom. Above all from our own colluding and self-congratulating imposters, who seek to steal our country from us.

    I don’t believe the Scottish people are thick at all,
    Some of the best science, art, literature, and architecture and inventions of the world still used today came from the people of Scotland,

    The confusion comes from the fact that most people in Scotland were colonised and taught fear, bred and fed fear of themselves over hundreds of years.
    That does not make them gullible either.

    dear ole Blighty has had corrupt politicians longer than we have had a devolved government that has recently gone corrupt.

    No I would suggest the Scottish people are mainly patient people, slow to antagonise or rock the boat.
    Not natural warmongers,
    From what I have seen in the last sixty odd years is a nation that is waking up, a nation learning just how valuable they have been to down south, and how undervalued the Scots themselves have been by a goverment down south that fears collapse of the last vestiges of the old empire should Scotland leave.

    Its an interesting concept. The state can be as vindictive as possible, ruining someone’s life, taking their freedom or even actually causing them to die.

    That is exactly what started the mayhem of response killings in the cycle of fun that was Northern Ireland that was the euphemistically described ” Troubles ”

    Maybe its the cycle of life and death that the British inculcate wherever they have had empire. One thing though is that some of these vicious politicos would not dare attempt the stunts that they attempt if the recipients broke the rules too.

    They pull a knife, you pull a gun. They send one of yours to the hospital, you send one of there’s to the morgue.

    We may smile at these cinematic words from Sean Connery but when playing by the rules does not work, where the justice system is rotten, things do, as the world shows repeatedly, go badly wrong.

    And to quote another statement, we were unlucky this time, but she needs to be lucky all the time.

    This sounds like it comes from an era when the Red Cross were visiting concentration camps to check if they were getting their food parcels rather than 21st Century Scotland, where a mini electronic device can monitor a health condition and warn of imminent distress.

    Scots don’t have that choice; our past is deleted for us and our future is decided for us, according to Albert Memmi:

    “The most serious blow suffered by the colonized is being removed from history. Colonization usurps any free role in either war or peace, every decision contributing to his destiny and that of the world, and all cultural and social responsibility. The colonized feels neither responsible nor guilty nor skeptical, for he is out of the game. He is in no way a subject of history any more. He has forgotten how to participate actively in history and no longer asks to do so.”

    How do the prisoners vape in those no-smoking environments?

    Are they rubbing two boyscouts together?

    January 2019

    With 7,500 e cig starter kits distributed to inmates, the estimated cost sits somewhere towards the initially projected £150,000. The starter kit contains all the essentials for a smoker to make the switch to vaping including; a rechargeable battery, charger and a pack of three flavoured e liquids. From April inmates will be expected to pay for their own devices and e liquids.

    Breeks, it’s now NHS who are in overall charge of healthcare within SPS (another bright SNP decision that’s certainly cost the taxpayer far more than had they left it alone).
    I’m not going to get into whether i think this device is essential to keeping someone alive – i don’t know anything about it tbh; however, if a prisoner isn’t permitted a medical device in use that decision will almost certainly have came from a consultation with NHS as to its necessity, and it’s very likely the alternative idea (doubling up the cell as a safeguard) will have been decided by them also.
    SPS would not make a medical decision like that on its own and without assurance from NHS.
    There are many prisoners currently within the system who rely on electronic medical aids and have them in use in their cells e.g ventilators for COPD are not uncommon; however, they’ve all been sanctioned and deemed necessary by NHS before being issued.

    Any prisoner unhappy with the medical treatment they receive in prison have the same right of complaint as those of us on the outside – a standard NHS complaint form to which they’re entitled to receive an answer and explanation.

    Breeks, are you embarrassed by your battery and chewing silver paper arson post?

    No I’m not. I’m not implying Craig Murray would set fire to his mattress, but maybe, I don’t know, if prisoners are routinely denied batteries, then Craig having access to batteries might make him a target for assault by someone who’s in prison for good reason. That could be anything from arson to kleptomania, or simply petty jealousy.

    All I meant was that perhaps the Prison has a rational reason for doing this rather than petty nastiness.

    I’ve never been in prison, but I have had occasion to work in one as as external contractor, and I got the distinct impression that life in prison is an intense game of cat and mouse between prison officers and inmates. You (they) couldn’t let your guard down for a moment. The prison officers were cynical and suspicious of everything the inmates did, and vice versa. It is not a “normal” environment, and it left a lasting impression me that I really didn’t want to be there, either as a prisoner or a prison officer, nor indeed as an external contractor.

Here’s the fun part; vaccinated or not, we are all getting covid in the next few months — delta can’t / won’t be stopped — and that’s now official.

    Thank God we’ve got Nicola to give us a false sense of hope and security. She’ll be along in the next few days to tell you all this was her decision.

    Salmond should have gone for the jugular and finished sturgeon, it was the only way he’d have been able to clear his name. Instead he is now reduced to shouting at the wind about a book that brands him a criminal that got away with serious sexual offences and no one will pay the slightest bit of attention to him. As far as the majority of the electorate are concerned he’s a sex offender who got away with it and that will never change until he gets off his backside and finishes sturgeon for good.

    It is a hard road to shake the colony out of the Scots head of most

    It’s been a number of years now, that I have suggested we can step up to the plate and take legal responsibility for ourselves [ as a group ]when it comes to obtaining independence for Scotland.

    There are methods and ways we can do this as I have mentioned many times.
    These are ignored by most in the independence movement due to looking elsewhere for a leader,
    It appears none wants to lead.
    And that lack of will power and responsibility is the yes movements downfall.

    Even now, when the snp have joined the greens, giving us a government we did not vote for, shortly after the election that was not in their manifesto, everyone looks the other way.
    Waiting for someone else to move.
    It is time the Scottish people themselves took responsibility for their lot, as the Scottish government
    Avoids it.

    The troublesome gender issues, the hate crime bill, the rape clause, children being indoctrinated and told not to talk to parents, extremism climate change ideology without forethought only impoverishes Scotland further while the rich get richer,
    The food banks,
    and corruption feels like we are being run by the mafia,

    I may be the black sheep of my family being the only one born in England,
    But it appears I want and look for ways and legal methods for Scotland to become independent, more than Scots whom were born here,

    It does indeed rattle my cage with anguish that most are having a good moan while sleeping walking into a disasterous future Scotland.

    Scotland and its people have to work as a nation group, if no one wants to be leader.

    “It is a hard road to shake the colony out of the Scots head of most. I have suggested we can step up to the plate and take legal responsibility for ourselves [ as a group ]when it comes to obtaining independence for Scotland.”

    You are right to highlight here the critical core matter of a people taking ‘responsibility’. Under colonial rule and hence a people inculcated with a ‘colonial mindset’, our past is deleted for us and our future is decided for us. The words of Albert Memmi seem to fit us well:

    “The most serious blow suffered by the colonized is being removed from history. Colonization usurps any free role in either war or peace, every decision contributing to his destiny and that of the world, and all cultural and social ‘responsibility’. The colonized feels neither ‘responsible’ nor guilty nor skeptical, for he is out of the game. He is in no way a subject of history any more. He has forgotten how to participate actively in history and no longer asks to do so.”

    In our reality “the colonized are conditioned to feel inadequate”. And, due to the UK ‘union’ impacts of linguistic and cultural oppression/imperialism and colonialism:

    “The dilemma involved introduced a schizoid element into the (Scottish) national psyche..” (Dr David Purves)

    This personality disorder in part explains why Scots, under colonialism, do not take ‘responsibility’ for their own affairs and instead opt to be passive bystanders allowing others to walk all over them. As Frantz Fanon said: “Colonialism is a disease of the mind.”

    Independence is therefore decolonisation and the Scots need to first understand this so that they may then take full ‘responsibility’ over their affairs.

    ““The colonised are conditioned to feel inadequate”
    Is that the explanation for the inadequacy of the SNP government?”

    Here the “bourgeoisie seek a compromise” with the oppressor. Postcolonial theory tells us that a dominant National Party suffers from ‘petrification’ at the final hurdle and seeks to make ‘an accommodation with colonialism’. This serves to delay and risk independence, as well as creating the conditions for conflict. The dominant National Party then joins with the oppressor to marginalise and attack the so-called ‘radicals’ in the party who are seeking a more rapid move to independence; the latter then create new National Parties, much as we see in Scotland.

    By and large “the native intellectual over-stresses details (currency, trade, defence etc etc) and thereby comes to forget that the defeat of colonialism is the real object of the struggle” (Fanon). However inevitably some are more enlightened than others (e.g. via indy blogs), especially those coming from the group who have suffered most under colonialism (in our case the working class Scots speaker), and those who take the time to better comprehend the true nature of colonialism.

    It genuinely grieves me to see people posting nonsense, so I try to help a little.

    Yes, Europeans could travel freely without passports prior to WW1. The main reasons being:

    1) They didn’t expect to have guaranteed benefits and rights at their destination to be paid for by the taxpayers of their destination.
    2) They knew if they were violent, abusive, idle, law-breaking, mischief-making or even just noticeable as standing out from the crowd at their destination, they would be thrown in a dark cell indefinitely.
    3) The places they went to were undeveloped and under-populated.

    Speaking personally, when all 3 conditions are met again, I look forwards to free travel without passports once more.

    Yes, if you are drowning, any lifebelt is welcome. If you are happily swimming, you don’t need a lifebelt. Once again, you betray your irrational belief in the “Covid is deadly” meme. For the majority of people, it is not. Thus, it is perfectly rational to weigh the risks of a not fully tested vaccine against the risks of a mild cold-like sniffle. And decide to take your chances with the latter.

    You do know there are maybe two dozen different vaccines out there, do you? How have you managed to convince yourself that the short-term side effects and long-term side effects of all of them are identical?

    By increasing my medication this doctor would be putting my health at risk and could even lead to my death
    Ofc, he would not take on board what I had told him, its my life and he does not get to put me at risk with his opinions, I know only to well the consequences of being over medicated by doctores, my mothers brother had a stroke at 60 and died 3 weeks later from the stroke
    I said nothing, but he was a diabetic and highly medicated, not overweight, was as fit as a butchers dog as far as I could see, but the medical people have got a line that if you cross it medically speaking they increase your script
    My cousin dropped dead in hospital, he was a diabetic and 2 months younger than me, thin and seemed to me to be fit and healthy, the doctors just follow rules laid down by who knows who, but I have proved them wrong time after time
    As a little fun fact, I had a friend who smoked 60 fags a day and drank a bottle of gin over a day every day
    His doctor had told him to stop or he would be dead, when I spoke to him he said, that was 20 years ago and that doctor died a relatively young man and I am still here, he lived till he was about 85, average life span for men is 82 years old

    The Covid so-called pandemic has been well played by the system.
    Big Pharma is about producing drugs that create steady revenue stream hence most of what is in the pharmacy has been around for decades and is palliative.
    Antibiotics and vaccines are quick fixes but eventually may do harm to the natural defence chemistry of the body. They are not for everybody as the contraindications, required by law, will inform you. Trouble few bother to read them.
    These Covid vaxxes were fast tracked. The public are the test animals in a global lab.

    Very interesting.

    I noticed that any time I was under stress I caught a cold.
    I thought ‘this is all I need a bloody cold’
    This always happened around Christmas.

    I did some research and discovered that all the anti-bodies normally used to fight a cold were too busy fighting the stress or at least that is what I understood.

    Relaxation was impossible because the body was producing the very powerful drug called adrenaline. Adrenaline was useful back in the day when you had to ‘fight or flight’ an angry bear or these days if you require to lift a car. It’s very powerful stuff!

    “Glaxo’s $3 billion settlement included the largest civil, False Claims Act settlement on record,[1] and Pfizer’s $2.3 billion settlement including a record-breaking $1.3 billion criminal fine.”
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_pharmaceutical_settlements

    Please note: These are criminal convictions for deliberate fraud, not negligence. In all the above cases, the companies made profits far larger than the massive fines, ie, the criminal fines were just an operating cost. They include the main covid vaccine producers Pfizer, GlaxoSmithKline, Johnstone & Johnstone, and AstraZeneca. All these companies, who have proved that they value profits above human life, have been granted legal immunity from prosecution over the effects of their covid vaccines.

    David, you add “… companies now act more responsibly …” Afraid not, the offences continue up to the present day:

    So, basically the grand strategy today as far as covid is concerned is ‘herd immunity’ without the immunity part. The scientists now accept that immunity isn’t possible with covid, just as it isn’t possible with flu. We basically can’t keep up with the variants.

    Just a few weeks ago the companies behind the vaccines were telling us how easy it would be to develop new vaccines that targeted the emerging new variants. They’ve all gone quiet on that.

    We are all getting it, as I explained yesterday. The immediate goal for politicians is to gently control the rate and timing of infection levels so that the NHS can keep up. Sound familiar? You can expect to see some rather futile mitigation measures being reintroduced.

    Natural immunity doesn’t stop you catching new variants either, although it does provide a better spectrum of antibody protection beyond just targeting the spike protein.

    And based on the chatter I heard today, vaccine passports are now inevitable. The more astute amongst you will be wondering why vaccine passports became inevitable just as the government accepted that the vaccine isn’t able to stop us all catching the disease…

    I have my suspicions about that.

    With regards to the never ending debate on here regarding vaccines.
    The effectiveness of an individuals’ immune system varies from person to person and broadly does an effective job.
    Sometimes, however, it does need a bit of a ‘boost’ especially when encountering ‘invaders’ it has never met before.
    This is where drugs/antibiotics/vaccines come into play.
    If YOU, as an individual, do not wish to take anything that could possibly assist your body in fighting infection, that is up to you. I can only assume that this is because you have gleaned information from wherever which stops you. Babies/young kids get a series of inoculations. Should this be withdrawn from them as they have not yet had time to study the possible ramifications of what they are taking?

    Other than being siblings , what these three people had/have in common is they’ve received two doses of the vaccine in the last two months .

    Coincidence ? Maybe .

    The sister had a chronic asthma condition since her teens , likewise the brother has a chest condition , not chronic or long-established . My partner is in good health generally.

    Now it’s entirely likely the pre-existing condition of the sister was a major contributor to her death , likewise the symptoms her brother is experiencing , and possibly the shock and grief of losing her closest sister was a major factor in my partners heart-attack .

    The point though is they were all * strongly advised * to take the vaccines , with no notes of caution or an assessment of the possible side-effects , nor contra-indications for those with medical issues .

    Make of all this what you will . I’m not advocating the suspension of all Covid vaccines – though their efficacy as prophylactics is looking feebler by the day – or vaccines in general . Just maybe a bit more selective use and less hysteria about the absolute necessity of taking them

    Why not actually test folk to see if they are in the large group of folk that are asymptomatic when they had the virus without knowing about it, and who would already have antibodies that would suppress virus transmission as much if not more than “Vaccinated” Symptom Reducing Serum Jagged folk.

    It’s either on the spot testing or a period of quarantine prior to admittance if you’re serious about controlling a viral spread.

    I thought the article was more about the BBC cutting and pasting what she said, so it sounded like she was slagging off Scotland. What’s newsworthy about that? Just the BBC being the BBC.

    One of the most interesting slants on all of this Cambo Oil field was actually from Alex Salmond, who wasn’t rushing into shut down Scotland’s oil industry, but instead put Scotland at the front of Carbon Capture technology.

    I don’t know whether that’s future-tech, or means hoovering great volumes of CO2 out the atmosphere directly, or something like Uber-catalytic converters developed and fitted to cars so the CO2 is captured at source or locked into stable molecules which don’t pollute the environment. But it sounded a lot more positive and switched on than Sturgeon aimlessly rambling on about a “four nation” approach to Scotland’s oil.

    Oil is very good on the whole. I use gallons of the stuff and so do you. It’s the oil pollution and harmful by-products which are the big problem, plus the fact damage has been done which needs reversed.

    Truth be told, I rather suspect we’ll require remedial works and diversification to reverse climate change across the whole spectrum, and realistically, the Greens and the Oil Industry need to be sitting down at the same table and talking to each other, because massive compromises will be needed.

    Scotland was in such good hands – before Sturgeon came along.

    “The scientists now accept that immunity isn’t possible with covid, just as it isn’t possible with flu.”

    [ Long suffering sigh ]

    Naw, Hatuey, scientists are not saying that at all. The scientists are saying that permanent, i.e. life-long immunity, is not possible for either infection.

    If you catch flu, or are vaccinated, you have a good chance of having at least partial immunity for years, or even decades.

    If you catch Covid, or are vaccinated (or both), your immunity will be more short-lived, but still good for 6 months or more, perhaps a year if you had the “real deal”, i.e. the illness itself. Your immunity will be pretty good at the start, depending also on which one of the many vaccines you have received, but will then naturally tail off.

    With both diseases, the advent of viral mutations will mostly invalidate any immunity you already have.

    This stuff is too important to be posting pish about Hatuey. Why don’t you try a bit harder to get things right? Or just accept it is beyond your ken and leave it alone.

    Carbon Capture is the process of catching the CO2 produced in large installations and piping it to a reservoir which can reasonably be expected to have a lifetime measured in geological terms.

    Thus the CO2 never gets into the atmosphere to add to AGW.

    Best (only?) reservoirs are those from which oil and gas have already been extracted. We can be confident these will last.

    Carbon Capture is only feasible for large-scale installations, i.e. power stations. Some skeptics doubt even that.

    Very true Robert, and lets not forget the gatekeepers in our educational and non governmental departments that are parachuted in from down South and block zealously any movement towards not just independence, but Scottish history and culture and language.

    Scotland is a corrupt bigoted wee country, that’s controlled by an FM who’s actively trying to keep the status quo intact, and many Scots apathetic in nature, towards freeing their country from this rancid union, either don’t care or they actively support the suppression of Scots and Scotland, in favour of a foreign country, only in Scotland does this utterly absurd situation continue and it has done for centuries.

    Only in Scotland is the entire media totally opposed to Scotland becoming an independent country, and that media is owned by foreign countries including England. Only in Scotland are political parties that are branch offices of English ones (a foreign country) vehemently opposed to the bettering of their constituents lives through Scottish independence, they prefer to look out for the foreign country’s interests over their own folks interests.

    Only in Scotland does a foreign country tell Scots who and who isn’t allowed into Scotland (why do you think Scotland has such a small population compared to that of England’s).

    Only in Scotland do we hand over our wealth including oil and gas, and in return we are given pocket money back.

    Yes Robert, unfortunately Scots are reaping just what they sow, they are getting what they deserve, and will continue to do so until they either wake up or Scotland becomes too weakened that it does eventually end up subsumed by England and it will really be called North Britain.

    Steady on Republic. I can see you built up quite a head of steam writing your post, but in your rush, you have ended up including a positive alongside your negatives.

    First and foremost, this is a Pro-Indy site. It doesn’t matter whether you want New Scots to be numbered in the tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions, rationalists know that this will just result in tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of additional No votes.

    Yes Angus, that was meant to your job. Remember the concept? Settling up not settling in?

    I floated the question earlier asking just how much can one individual actually accomplish when they take on so many positions in different organisations, plus of course the no doubt significant time spent on their own secretive personal political manouverings…

    So there’s now concern about the Power Grab, woofuckinhoo, he’s only 20 months behind the curve of the likes of Colin Dunn aka Indyposterboy, who’s now taking a reluctant sabbatical because the likes of Angus and his cronies have done so fucking little to progress the Indy cause.

    https://indyposterboy.scot/what-is-the-powergrab/

    Our local YES groups had much of Colin’s work on their street stalls. And I explicitly recall we held a Power Grab themed street stall in the High Street to raise public awareness about this significant issue.
    That was done by a local YES Group that got knocked back by the local SNP Constituency Offices when we suggested they tack on a one off one paragraph mention to SNP members in the monthly Constituency Association emails, letting them know about their local YES Group that they may wish to follow or get involved with.

    You didn’t. You employed the Andy Ellis defence. There are no limits in your preferred immigration policy, but you dare not state that openly.

    “I merely pointed out why there’s a huge disparity in population sizes between England and Scotland, and why it is.”

    No, you didn’t. Anybody already in England is free to come to Scotland. By and large, they don’t. Your original comment about a foreign country setting Scotland’s immigration policy can only be interpreted as you wanting Scotland to be able to attract immigrants, free from WM limitations. Ergo, these can’t be immigrants from south of the border.

    Don’t try to weasel out, Republic. You want Scotland to have an open borders policy. Fine, but that is not consistent with a Pro-Indy stance, because such a policy will ensure Indy never happens.

    “Its very clear to me on your position on Scottish independence, when you chose this particular sentence from my comment, rather than focusing on the multitude of negative points on why being in this union is detrimental to Scots and the wealth of Scotland.”

    The argument for vaccinating kids in a nutshell;

    “A recent analysis from the CDC also estimated that for every million second dose vaccinations of children aged 12-17 over 120 days, there are somewhere between 64 and 79 cases of myocarditis. But these vaccinations prevent an estimated 14,200 cases of Covid-19, which would normally result in 398 hospitalisations, 109 intensive care admissions, and 3 deaths.”

    There are other reasons too. Something like 24% of kids that catch covid suffer from ‘long covid’. And then you also need to factor in the propensity of kids to mingle and spread the disease.

    “Out of 518 children aged between zero and 18, who tested positive for Covid-19, they found that 24.3 per cent were still suffering from persistent symptoms ranging from fatigue to allergic reactions, some five months later, with 12-18 year olds proving particularly vulnerable…”

    Ireland, for your information was never conquered nor did the Romans make any serious attempts to conquer it, having had their arses skelped against the Picts and Caledonians. As for tides and geography, no doubt as an English squaddie you would struggle to find your way out of the naffi.

    This in turn raises an interesting question as to whether the good Dr Fauci might be either shite at math or a functioning psycopath – and a potentially even more interesting follow up about how often he, and others in similar positions, get tested for same and the ease, prior to adoption of any vaccine passport principles, with which such tests (and the score of the employee in question) can be made available for public scrutiny or, hateful intent notwithstanding, public ridicule..

    It will clearly take weeks to get books to the prison library and, one hopes, Craig. In my naivety I thought I could take books to HMP Edinburgh, but I phoned just to make sure, and it’s more complicated (unsurprisingly). If anyone has discovered a “short-cut” please let us know. In the meantime I have to write a letter to two individuals at the covid hub. How long they take to answer is anyone’s guess.

    Gotta wonder how the native Aboriginals are putting all that into perspective…

    I know nothing about Australia, not the first thing, but watching the Aussie Gold Hunters / Opal Minors / Bush Truckers etc… can’t put my finger on it, but it seems an unhappy place somehow. One minute it’s the lawless frontier, the next they’re held up mining because their permits not come through.

    Strikes me as mental they way they just dig mines or scrapes looking for gold or gems and you seem to keep whatever you find for the cash it’s worth.

    It’s hard to decide if you’re watching exciting opportunity, or 19th Century colonial “help-yourself-ness” in the raw. Some of the old mine workings left behind look like a moonscape. It’s still wilderness, but wilderness that been sieved through for it’s shiny bits.

    I have to agree with Barrhead Boy when he says that he doesn’t want Sturgeon to hold an indyref, that she’s incapable of holding it and winning it, that she’s not the right person as FM to do so.

    I also agree with him that an election as a plebiscite (the next one 23/24) should be the way forward.

    My opinion is that Sturgeon is so anti-Scottish independence that she’d organise a half-arsed indyref and we’d lose it, just what she’d want. No lets go with the plebiscite come 2023/2024 GE election.

    My personal choice would be to oust Sturgeon replace her with someone who wants to see an independent Scotland, call back our MP’s from Westminster hold a vote in the Holyrood chamber on independence, if yes win declare independence there and then, negotiate with Westminster on dissolving the union via terms.

    That’s the only light I see on the Horizon to be honest.

    I think a Plebiscite Election taken from a UK General Election might, repeat might, alleviate concerns about franchise votes for incomers, but potentially too, being a Westminster Election, the Unionist vote can’t really boycott it, and a clever ALBA / YES Campaign strategy could do a lot to minimise the roll of Holyrood and Sturgeon’s Vichy / TRANS Assembly, and grab onto Scottish Constitutional arguments with both hands and hold on to them for dear life…

    Don’t forget, a General Election will be first past the post too… Pro Indy majority of seats and Scotland is on it’s way.

    I hope that’s the strategy with ALBA is going to focus on, and hope the “sensible” SNP readership and faithful, that is the true Indy supporters left in the SNP, have the good sense and grace to play the smart money game and let ALBA it’s stuff and all the heavy lifting in relative peace, and start beating the drums and raising the standards for a Scottish Constitutional renaissance and Plebiscite Election on Independence.

    It’s doable.

    It’s winnable.

    But so much depends on the damage done to us by Sturgeon’s absurd stupidity and the enemies she has created within our ranks.

    “That hatred springs more from self-contempt than from a legitimate grievance is seen in the intimate connection between hatred and a guilty conscience.

    “There is perhaps no surer way of infecting ourselves with virulent hatred toward a person than by doing him a grave injustice. That others have a just grievance against us is a more potent reason for hating them than that we have a just grievance against them. We do not make people humble and meek when we show them their guilt and cause them to be ashamed of themselves. We are more likely to stir their arrogance and rouse in them a reckless aggressiveness. Self-righteousness is a loud din raised to drown the voice of guilt within us.”

    Question ? When is a person who’s been vaccinated Twice now not being recognised or recorded as being fully vaccinated ? or perhaps where is the more appropriate Question .

    Answer the good old reliable USA , the CDC in the States has altered its definition of Fully Vaccinated people , it has changed the way it records information on Hospital admissions anyone
    that has been jabbed 2 weeks or less before admission is deemed unvaccinated , anyone jabbed once is again deemed unvaccinated also anyone with the magic number 3 Jab , that’s the full house they will only be recorded as fully vaccinated if it’s over 14 days since being jabbed otherwise everyone is not recorded as fully vaccinated , so given the appropriate time lapse between doses 1-2-3 you are talking weeks a person can be termed unvaccinated according to their methods , nice wee numbers trick eh , all meant to confuse the gullible public.

    Oh by the way two senior figures in the CDC have just resigned that’s just after the latest speed of light approval of the latest version of the magic serum that the manufacturer still has to fully list the ingredients accompanied by a product testing verification failure to comply is a criminal offence .

    She / her will no doubt implement a ridiculously complex level system to determine “vaccination” status.
    These Levels will be based on constantly influx parameters due to the variance in serum brand quality, and their respective deteriorations in symptom reducing efficacy over protracted time frames, with the resultant effects that has on and amongst different demographic groups.

    The range will be from Level Zero to Level 41, because one more jag would mean folk would be immune and no longer hear the music of a once popular Jazz/ Funk band with Mark King’s bass rifts.
    In the forthcoming years, a special extra level will be created for the masochistic “vaccine” enthusiasts.

    Stuart mctavish,

    Your argument isn’t as powerful as it might be. If you take the median on each side of the equation — 41% fatality on one hand, 71 cases of myocarditis on the other, giving you a total of let’s say 30 deaths per million as a consequence of double vaccination, it doesn’t compare well to the 3 deaths suggested in the unvaccinated cohort.

    In essence, those numbers suggest children in that age group are ten times more likely to die if they are double vaccinated than they would be otherwise (completely unvaccinated).

    Of course, it’s not that simple. Delta changed everything statistically speaking, because it’s much more infectious. Without vaccination and without social distancing, the number of kids catching covid is going to rise dramatically above the levels found in the CDC study.

    The modelling when you factor in delta leads very quickly to everyone in a non-socially-restricted-society catching this. Over the next two winters, it’s basically a done deal.

    With sterilising immunity levels amongst the fully vaccinated at around 50% and falling all the time, it’s clear to me that we are looking at a long hard winter without more restrictions. UK a scientists seems to think it’s probably better to let us all catch it than to press ahead with booster shots and today’s announcement on 12-15 year olds fits right in with that.

    @Tinto Chiel, Robert Graham –

    The JCVI statement today certainly seems to have set the cat amongst the proverbials.

    Jason Leitch reached hitherto unknown pitches of nasal droning on BBC Radio Scotland’s ‘Drivetime’; trying not to sound as pissed-off about it all as the presenter clearly expected him to be. But when invited to suggest that all hope is not lost, that 12-15yr olds may yet be given ‘the jag’, he sounded pretty upbeat.

    He knows it’ll go ahead. It’s just another wee ‘bump in the road’.

    People opposed to having children injected with experimental gene therapy tried to break into the Canary Wharf offices of the MHRA today. Rebuffed by panicky cops, they then boarded the tube and made their way to South Kensington. Their exit from the tube was blocked by cops and very nearly led to a crush. Batons, arrests etc, the usual, then a prolonged period of cat-and-mouse chasing ending in kettling.

    How much of that appeared on msm?

    No idea, cause I don’t watch it, but not a peep on the radio.

    While the kettling was ongoing and folk were waiting for fellow protestors to be released, some interesting conversations with the cops were broadcast live. One was a youngish ex-military guy wearing a red beret (sorry, I don’t know the significance) telling a mature police officer, at length, about how he and ‘hundreds’ of colleagues are ready to take it all to another level if the jagging of children goes ahead. He was quite calm about it all – ‘there will be blood’, ‘people will be hurt’ etc.

    How many people know what happened in London today? How many know what’s been happening all across Europe, the US, Canada, Australia?

    Now, more than ever, we need these platforms to get even the vaguest outline of what’s really happening. And no matter what side of the whole debate we happen to be on, that has to be something we can agree on.

    There was a video posted here about mass hypnosis and how people are manipulated into doing horrible things. It was good and in another way it was pretty bad.

    I am one for ugly truths. It’s the ugly truths that nobody wants to look at that are most likely to hold the clues to problems and answer questions we can’t seem solve.

    So what is the ugly truth when it comes to people and politics in my opinion? Is it a corrupt media? A totally corrupt elite? Yes, those are part of it.

    I once read George Soros (I hate the bastard but anyway) book Alchemy of Finance. The one thing in the book that particularly resonated with me is how he speaks about the standard study of economics when it comes to supply and demand and the assumption that people will make rational choices, therefore achieving a balanced market with fair prices. According to him the flaw lies in the assumption that the market participants have perfect knowledge of constantly evolving conditions, which most will not. He of course was one of the top fund managers to ever live so his opinion is backed up by performance. The other flaw in my view is assuming human beings will make rational decisions even with perfect knowledge of the market.

    I find something similar with our idea’s of liberal democracy – we assume that this is the best (or the least bad) system because everyone gets an equal ability to effect election outcomes and given the state of the country or region at any given time we can elect leaders best equipped to do the job. Now putting aside the obvious corruption of mainstream media and the very obvious fact that only the politicians who are acceptable to our financial elite will be reasonably treated there is a more fundamental problem.

    Humans are tribalistic, emotionally driven and have to make constant efforts to behave rationally.

    Advertisers and social engineers are well aware of this and use it to great advantage. Most of us are looking for someone to follow, to do the talking for us, to think things through for us, to show us the way. In short we are looking for a leader to take us where we want to go while giving us reassurance and a feeling of security that our interests are best looked after.

    People on average do not want to have to think for themselves. They want to be led and they are prepared to make all kinds of excuses for the people leading them so long as they are given just enough reassurances that it will all work out well.

    The ugly truth is this is where liberal democracy fails, in the same way that classic economics fails. It is based on the assumption that humans will not act like humans.

    So how do you deal with this?

    Well instead of fighting it you work with it. We have no ability now to properly influence our politics until the next election and even then it will probably result in a reshuffling of characters and nothing will come the way of Scots that the establishment by-and-large don’t approve anyway.

    The real power is economic power. Not just holding vast amounts of cash which would be helpful, but being able to influence business growth, personal security and quality of life depending on our own in group needs and preferences. This will require Scots being encouraged to buy from and sell to other Scots, offer services, hire, expand, train others and generally support their Scottish community. In short using the private sector to do what government is failing (or refusing) to do.

    If a Scottish independence movement were to go down this route of educating and guiding people like this it would quickly start to improve the lives of Scots, give some hope beyond ‘the next election’ and indeed start to take some power out of the hands of politicians.

    This would quite quickly start to show the kind of leadership from an organisation that would attract people who need to be led and ultimately would provide an extremely strong platform for not only forming and maintaining our own political parties but influencing the policies of parties that are opposed to us.

    That would require a couple of things that many Scots don’t do too well – think in terms of the private sector and show an unabashed ingroup preference at the expense of others.

    The thing is though – once the path is clear and rewards known (i.e Scots can look after Scots and improve our own outlook regardless of politicians) it would become an obvious method of functioning and it would put the basics in our favour so that even unionists would see the merit.

    Besides anything – if Scots won’t look after Scots nobody else will. The elite have the power to influence our society because they focus mostly on controlling economics. Politics is a show for the plebs that only occasionally gives them something to worry about. We will not ever effectively fight them if we do not start to take that power back.

    When ordinary people start to understand the power of their basic spending habits, and how if they channel them to the right places with some extra effort and thought, it would quickly start to turn things around. And in turn if the Scots on the receiving end of this preferential treatment would extend job opportunities and training it would result in an economic upward spiral for Scots.

    The political scene would start to become shaped by this.

    To end this protracted rant ill say that given the tyranny we are facing via covid now is a perfect time to start.

    The whole point of such a course of action would be for it to be independent of the shitfilled fucksewer of politics and remain in the hands of Scottish businesses and Scottish customers for the benefits of all. Put it in the hands of a political party, any political party, and it would have a very short shelf life.

    Thats not to say that the leaders that naturally emerge from us all deliberately working to help Scots through the private sector and build a stronger Scottish economy wouldn’t be able to lead political groups or pressure groups.

    The vaccine put an end to lockdown and social distancing, making it possible for anti-vax protests to go ahead. That’s the actual facts of the bizarre world we live in.

    Outside of the Twilight Zone, there simply is no other way to explain the downturn in mortality and hospitalisations, despite rising infections.

    Joe’s comment suggesting we should give preference to other Scots when it comes to trade and business would be dismissed as boring and stupid if it came from just about anybody else. Of all the people that comment on here, though, he’s the one I’d say was most likely to struggle to even define a Scot.

    But let’s go through the motions, Joe, what is a Scot? Is it someone who lives here? Can people of other races be Scots? How long would they need to live here to become a Scot? Are Unionists Scots?

    @ JOE 9.26pm your suggestions and proposals are very laudable and workable all it would ever take is for people to be aware of them and put them into practice job nearly done

    I hate negativity but here goes, the BIGGEST and most dangerous threat to independence is NOT Sturgeon and her tartan taliban trans troops including the greens or even the unionist parties with their knuckledraggers , it is the broadcasters especially the BBC and the corrupt skewed tax avoiding newspaper owners

    We would already be an independent state if it were not for the BBC and the MSM lying and misinforming the electorate on everything to do with independence , we would already be rid of Sturgeon and her tartan taliban trans troops if the broadcasters and MSM would actually do their job and EXPOSE Sturgeon’s lies at the judicial inquiry and her part in the debacle

    For ANYTHING positive to happen re independence ALBA with the agreement of the other indy supporting parties would have to EXPOSE the lies and duplicity being carried out against indy Scotland by the BBC and all the broadcasters including the MSM until that happens they, the establishment have the upper hand

    That’s a question to ask when Scotland is independent.

    In the meantime perhaps you could define what you mean by other races.

    What race are Unionists?

    Maybe you could help us out to find an answer to your question ‘What is a Scot? by answering the following:

    What is a Geordie?
    What is an English man?

    Apart from the geographical location the answer will be the same.

    Not sure if its a better argument or a more outrageous observation but one explanation outside of the Twilight Zone for the downturn in mortality despite rising infections is that its seasonal flu and the vaccine started being distributed in Spring.

    This would not have been too bad for a cunning testing plan – ie trigger the anti bodies in summer when the pathogen is least dangerous – but for the fact that it does not seem to work nearly as well (as a vaccine) as advertised and more people have been dying (with covid) with the medication than without it.

    Agree with the sentiment that the vaccine was heralded as an excuse to exit lockdown (thus lending credibility to both) but remain somewhat concerned that a prevailing belief in necessary evil can lead to suppression of detail pertaining to the actual performance of the drug(s), rendering further mistakes more likely at the authoritarian level.

    ie more lockdowns, winter boosters (with formulas claimed not to work because variants etc), coerced injection of youths with a medication that, superficially, demonstrably increases cases of an allegedly highly infectious and deadly covid-19 (at the onset of peak flu season no less), etc which will ultimately lead to even further restrictions to trade, liberty and self worth than those currently in force.

    ‘If you have to leave your job because they’re forcing you to take the vaccine, tell me what you do. If I can’t hire you, I’ll try to find someone who will.’

    That was tweeted last night by an American guy. I won’t identify him because he’s been inundated with replies and is struggling to cope, but I thought it might be helpful for people to know how others are reacting to this crisis.

    Instead of allowing ourselves to be paralysed by fear, we find positive things to do, ways to offer help to each other. Sounds a bit happy-clappy, aye, but that’s what it’s all about.

    The days of feeling apologetic and guilty for pointing out the obvious flaws in the official narrative are over. Those who should feel guilt and fear are the ones peddling the same shite we’ve been having rammed down our necks this past 18 months.

    A lot of damage has already been done but the great positive to emerge from all of it is that we now know who the real enemies are. They’ve overplayed their hand, hugely, and are now lashing out because they know they’re losing

    @Twathater

    If we are discussing strategies that ordinary Scots can implement that would benefit their nation then we are left with a short list an easy choice. Complaining about large centralised organisations that are in the hands of the establishment might be relevant but its not a strategy.

    With regards to the MSM the only things Scots can do against this is 1: stop watching it (get rid of the TV in fact) 2: promote alternative media sources and 3: take their TV license and use it for something useful. The 3rd thing on that list could actually be extremely powerful but would require us to have a cohesive central organisation to implement it, so its not for the present.

    So that’s the media. Other than those things there isn’t much else Mr and Mrs MacAverage can do – so that’s exactly what has to be done.

    As for politics – I am not suggesting we ignore politics or what’s going on and not inform ourselves for elections etc. But really our political system is serving as a distraction into which we invest our energy, enthusiasm and time only to be given pretty much what our financial establishment will allow us. The entire YES movement is pretty much based around this unrealistic dream of somehow the establishment that we know are duplicitous, cunning, evil bastards will suddenly honour democratic choice, the sovereignty of people and the integrity of fair elections. It is simply a ridiculous fantasy.

    As I said when talking about UBI – we only have at our disposal bottom-up solutions. There really is no point in discussing top-down solutions because even if those idea’s were alright in and of themselves we have governments that are actively working against us and could never be trusted with such schemes.

    Speaking for myself there is no politician in Scotland that I have any faith in as a leader or potential leader. That includes Alex Salmond.

    The happy coincidence in this is that it is decentralized bottom-up solutions that are actually the most powerful and long lasting – especially the ones that are easily implemented. A redirecting of peoples spending habits towards the actual Scottish economy while encouraging business to hire and train Scottish would encourage others to get into business where there are none in the community. And again we don’t need any politicians on side.

    The strength of this idea comes from the fact that peoples spending habits can make or break a business empire. If people spending habits change, such as the change from high street to online, it will create riches in one place and destroy the other.

    Why not try to coax nationalist spending habits towards nationalist interests and allow the Scottish people to look after each other and participate in the creating of our own prosperity?

    One underlying factor of this is the understanding that its no good just to take a population of people whose minds have been pickled in mainstream propaganda and hoping they will think well for themselves and make good decisions a la Alex Salmond. We who presume to be nationalists must lead the way to better methods for ordinary people and that leadership, real leadership, is exactly what people are completely starving for.

    I think we are going to need to agree on a working definition of Twilight Zone, squire…

    Any explanation that assumes health practitioners, medical scientists, and others, are involved in some sort of scam or mass deception, to be absolutely clear, is The Twilight Zone.

    Excellent posts as per Ian B + J.O.E

    Hatz my good man , it doesn’t require “….Any explanation that assumes health practitioners, medical scientists, and others, are involved in some sort of scam or mass deception…..”

    It merely requires people – even in good faith- accepting a version of ” reality ” ( which falls apart under sufficient scrutiny ) to be convinced they are doing/believing the right thing for terrible mistakes to be made on a massive scale .

    The * Reality * that’s been foisted on us ie the super-infectious nature of the virus , it’s lethality for everyone irrespective of age or state of health ,the magic numbers game , what is it now 5million alleged deaths * from * Covid ?

    How is that number arrived at , who gathers and tests the veracity of such * Covid * fatalities , what are the financial inducements to label any/every death as from Covid , if an 90 year old cancer sufferer dies and the death is included in the virus fatality stats , can that really be considered legitimate ?

    The ever-shifting claims of the vaccine-promoters – initially the universal panacea , now , not so much : the shifting of blame for rising cases onto the new lepers even though vaccinated people can still cause infection .

    In short , the social upheavals being caused in the name of health safety

    Does none of this warping of reality cause you any doubts at all ?

    Dear Ian Brotherhood,

    You’ve clearly gone all-in with this hand when you should have folded months ago.

    The cards have been turned now and we can see that you didn’t stand a chance: the vaccine works; people aren’t dying because of it in significant numbers; society and life has more or less returned to normal as a result.

    Sometimes you’ve just got to accept you made a huge mistake and learn from it. But you’re not doing that. You’re fishing and in doing so compounding the problem with another bigger error by saying the whole casino is rigged.

    Immersing yourself in this stuff is clearly distorting your judgement and giving you a false sense of what is really going on. Outside of your bubble there’s no mass outrage or protests against the vaccine — on the contrary, people are grateful for the vaccine and the opportunity it gave us to get life back to normal.

    You say, “the days of feeling apologetic and guilty for pointing out the obvious flaws in the official narrative are over” and that’s disappointing.

    Why aren’t you welcoming the return to normal we are experiencing, yesterday’s decision not to vaccinate 12 to 15 year olds, and the fact that lots of us aren’t dying as a result of cytokine storms?

    I really don’t know where you think you are going with all this. It looks like a dead end to me.

    Unfortunately we do not have time to slowly encourage and convince people that the continued r ape and plunder of SCOTLAND’S resources by WM will result in even more vicious poverty and deprivation , even more exporting of our young people due to unemployment and unaffordable housing , a continued influx of people from all over desperate to enjoy a relatively stable climate , a relatively modern country with up to date technology , low density population areas , and very important, affordable (for them) larger spacious cheaper housing which allows the banking of any surplus profit from any previous house sale

    Even if Joe’s suggestion had any potential to be positively impactful, and I highly doubt that, it would probably take about 30 years before anything measurable transpired.

    The fact is that about 80% of the economy is in the hands of British/English and other foreign companies. That means about 80% of the choices we make concerning spending decisions are essentially made for us.

    There are no Scottish companies offering us petrol for our cars, electricity for our homes, supermarkets for groceries, mobile phone networks, broadband, etc., etc., etc.

    When it comes to services, I can’t imagine how favouring Scottish plumbers or taxi drivers would work. Are you going to let your houses flood or stand waiting in the cold until a suitably Scottish option appears?

    I will take the blame for you not quite getting what im talking about.

    Nobody has done what im talking about, there are individuals and small groups trying to save the high street or boycott big business where possible. Which is all good and im up for it.

    Making it a nationalist policy to actively support grass roots business and self employed Scots in their local communities, regardless of politics, to the point where any Scot who has a skill but nobody representing that skill in their community could know that there’s already business waiting there for them to start with.

    Thats not about what Aldi does or where it sources anything. Or any other big international business. Its about your mate Dode who can run a bakery actually being encouraged into it and supported by the nationalist community (and other people concerned about the actions of big business) and having one less bookies on your high street.

    For example if i take some paper, write up everything I buy as a matter of habit and then source where I can get those items without setting foot into a bigger business to get them I can then divert cash flow towards my local community. A lot of people already do that so its not big deal. But what if any blanks on the list could be made known and basically encourage people to step up to the plate with some guaranteed custom?

    What if that became accepted and broadcast nationalist policy (pushed for as much as the old ‘who to vote for’ thing) as a part of reviving our economy. No politicians needed but a national effort all the same and giant fuck you to big business and the government.

    Note – im not talking about boycotting here. If your butcher is a Unionist then that’s fine, its better putting money in his pocket that it is in the investors of Asda.

    It will take the work of a few dedicated groups to become known for the merits of it to spread to others. Nobody would be asked to get shafted and nobody would be asked to use services or buy goods that they don’t want or don’t trust or are simply too expensive.

    But ultimately this will have to be done as it is the only way to bring back some economic power to ordinary people without asking for government to do something for us. Because they wont.
