FRACK OFF!
Fracking.... sounds like some bizarre and deviant sexual act or behaviour, which in a way it is; the raping of mother earth. Fracking involves drilling and blasting into the ground to release deposits of shale gas that cut across the United Kingdom.
Start the scare and fuel the fear.
Media reports of black outs in the future as electricity runs out and
has to be rationed, scares the public into believing that 'shale gas'
is the solution to the problem, then more media reports to discredit
the dissenters who think that drilling for shale gas will create
environmental problems. Whose truth do you trust?
As the richest deposits of shale are
'up North' there could a danger, probably not in my life time that
the North/South divide will literally widen as the country is cut in
half through having been blasted and drilled into, which has caused
geological shifts in the rock formations. When test drilling was
carried out near Blackpool a couple of years ago, there were earth
tremors, there is also the possibility that the chemicals used in
fracking could leak into the water table and contaminate it.
Eco-warriors are accused of scaring
people with their fears that fracking will damage the environment.
Well some ones gotta take responsibility for our earth, cos in the
hands of governments and big business it's just a resource to be
exploited for profit at any cost, without any thought for the future.
Government backing of fracking stinks
of a money making venture for UKplc, a bit like North Sea oil was in
the 70's, which should have secured our energy resources for many
years, but UKplc couldn't manage North Sea Oil properly, if they had
then we wouldn't have to rely on imports for our energy today. At
every turn in the debate over our energy resources and how to
maintain and secure them someone will benefit, whether it's eco
companies making money out of turbines and solar panels or energy
firms profiting from other energy sources.
I say support every community that
stands up against the fracking of our land, no matter where you live.
There are other ways of producing energy, without having to reek
environmental damage to the country, Wind farms cause a lot less harm
to the countryside it's a visual thing that can be seen through; 21st
Century windmills, the same with solar panels, they both might look
unsightly, but they are solutions with no real impact on the
environment other than what peoples perception of them is. There are
other solutions; Cut the cost of the product, cut the profits of the
bosses, unfortunately it seems impossible to cut the usage as
society is addicted and slaves to machines and gadgets that need
powering up and re-charging. Even though energy prices are high,
people don't seem to value the energy they use. By using less energy
we will conserve resources, but that means a fundamental shift in
thinking about how and what we consume, and not only the carbon
footprint it makes but the energy it takes to produce it. Perhaps we
are reaching a time where progress needs to slow down and we need to
go backwards in order to go forwards, either that or carry on as we
are.
Something's gotta change; otherwise we
are gonna be fucked and there shale be nothing for future generations
to inherit.

THE LURKERS - Live @ The 100 Club, London 1982
Whenever Punk Rocks history is
revisited and re-written. The Lurkers are one of the most criminally
ignored and overlooked bands from the class of 1977, why???? I ain’t
got a clue. Possibly something to do with their
“lack of fashion” which in my book makes them more Punk Rock than
those who shopped at Sex, Boy and Acme Attractions. The Lurkers were
outsiders in a scene for outsiders they were always in the shadow of
bands like The Clash, The Pistols and The Damned. There was no
pretence or pretensions, no grand political statements, just some
good old honest Rock'n'Roll. After some classic singles and a couple
of great albums the band split in 1980, but came back from the dark
in 1982 with a different vocalist and a batch of killer new songs
like; Frankenstein Again, This Dirty Town, Heroin (It's All Over) all
of which are on this live recording from The 100 Club in 1982, along
with some of the old classics; I'm On Heat, Shadow and Ain’t Got a
Clue. Enjoy!
Respect to bat29 @ Noise AddictionII

"You've got to know who the enemy is!"
I only buy the New Musical Express once
in a while now, and when I do I remember why I don't buy it every
week.... because it's shit, which is sad, because it used to be a
good read years ago. The present editorial team and readership may
still think it is, but trust me it aint. Page after page of adverts
interrupted by interviews/reviews of insipid incestuous interbred
musicians, like minded losers only playing it for the deal and a
career in the music industry. The next big thing in the pages of the
NME. The enemy? Don't make me laugh, it's part of the establishment
masquerading as being alternative, an alternative to what? The
'crappy chart music' replaced by crappy independent music that says
nothing and does nothing and goes nowhere. The clock is ticking....
15 minutes, 14 minutes......2 minutes, 1 minute....Times Up! About
the same length of time it took me to read last weeks edition before I threw it
away.... A disposable paper full of disposable bands in a disposable
world where the only passion is for the fashion.
WHO'S FUCKIN' PARANOID NOW?
The Edward Snowden story has been
floating around for a while. He's the former CIA operative who
didn't blow a whistle but a trumpet on the US and UK government
covert surveillance programs.
Not news to some just a confirmation of
what we've known has being going on for some time now, Just like
politicians on the fiddle, it has come as a surprise to some; that
their government wants to know what its people are up to. If what
Snowden says is true, the citizen of the United Kingdom are the most
spied on. Good job we are living in a 'democracy'
Some may say that if you are doing
nothing wrong, then what's the problem. Well....they are the problem
for one and by their logic....Why have the US and UK governments not
wanted their citizens to know what they've been up to, if it's
nothing wrong?
Their logic also dictates with no hint
of irony that Edward Snowden is wanted in the US on charges of
spying..... because he told the world that the US and UK governments
are spying on their citizens. That's how things work in a democracy.
He was in Hong Kong, but since the US
government put diplomatic pressure or threatened as I like to call it
the Hong Kong authorities to help with his extradition to the US he
has left there and is flying to Russia before possibly going to
'communist Cuba'
During the cold war all the Eastern
bloc countries watched and observed their citizens, it was how the
communist regimes maintained control, through fear, the secret police
were no secret, unlike in this hot war on terror world, where
everything they do is secret. and the only fear is the fear of the
unknown and the unseen.
Our democratic values are under threat
by the very people that have been entrusted to maintain them. Just
who are the real terrorists? because wasn't that what the war on
terror was all about, protecting our freedoms from those that wanted
to destroy democratic values?

CHELSEA - Faster, Cheaper and Better Looking (The U.S CD Bonus Tracks)
No special reason for this post, other
than I've rediscovered the album and have been listening to it quite
a bit recently, it's a corker! Released in 2005, twelve tracks of no
nonsense Rock'n'Roll with something to say. It's up there with
Evacuate, Original Sinners and their debut as one of my favourite
Chelsea albums. Faster Cheaper and Better Looking was recorded by
part of what some consider to have been the 'classic' Chelsea line
up of Gene October, James Stevenson and Chris Bashford, unfortunately
Dave Martin and Geoff Myles were unable to take part., Bass playing
duties were taken over by Tony Barber. Anyway....for some reason the
Captain Oi release (The one I've been listening to) doesn't include
the two tracks Mr Ferry’s Son, which is an unprovoked but
legitimate and well deserved attack on the odious Otis Ferry, son of
Poxy Music's Brian Ferry and supporter of bloodsports and all things
upper class. Home is a cover of Iggy Pops 1990 single. So for
anyone else missing these tracks....here ya go!
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON? #2
Now whats happened? Now some shit banner at the top of the
blog advertising money and women.... great my blog is being raped as
I type, I've got one more post to do, then I'm gonna investigate cos
it looks like I've been fucked over by some hacker who's hacked me
off, but hey ho shit happens, it's not the end of the world.
Trouble Is The Day.
It's coming down....fast. At times it
seems like we are living in a state of perpetual war. Forces have
been converging for several years now. Citizens across Europe and
the Middle East have been taking to the streets, tearing up the
pavements; looking for the beach and throwing concrete at the police
Struggles for democracy in the Middle
East and conflicts with capitalism continue in the West, a divided
world united in protest against the powers that be where ever they
may be.
The unseen forces have been at work for
many a year now, dividing people in countries across the globe and
creating social instability. Out of their disorder they will create
a New World Order.
Clouds of tear gas from Turkey and
Greece drift across Europe as the US Government prepares to arm the
rebels in Syria, as a response to the Assad regime having used
chemical weapons against its own people, there are also reports that
'rebel' forces have also being using chemical weapons, but this has
not been verified. There is no unified opposition to President
Assad, just numerous factions of fighters from the moderates to the
extremists, all with different objectives but their aim is the
same.....power and control over the Syrian people. By supplying
'military aid' to the rebels the USA is just giving weapons to the
very people it declared war against....the terrorists.
No real change then, as the US supplied
the Taliban when they were fighting the Russians in Afghanistan
during the 1980's, the bad guys can be the good guys when it suits.
This could be another of those moments. I've heard reports that Iran
is going to send troops to fight alongside President Assad’s
forces, so with the West backing the rebels they could get to for the
price of one Syria and Iran, even though another Western nemesis
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has been replaced as Iranian president by a
'moderate' in recent elections.
In a world where not
everything is Black and White, but 50 shades of grey....we are all
getting fucked!
The Western nations mission to
democratise the world is futile, they can't even maintain democracy
in their own countries.
Conflicts are being played out live and
direct on Global New channels. The actors are real, events have not
been changed but they may have been manipulated. Do the pictures
need to be verified?
Where's Tony Blair the Middle East
peace envoy? Shouldn't he be sorting this out? No....why should he,
it was him and George Bush that declared the war on terror. The
cultural and military imperialist war machine they started keeps on
moving, Blair, Bush and the rest of 'em are quite happy to watch as
it passes by. Wars cost money, wars make money and money makes the
world go round. Global citizens are just collateral damage in their
pursuit for a New World Order.
The Bildenburg Group met recently it's
a group made up of around 150 of the most powerful and influential
economic and political figures from Europe and North America, they
meet every year and discuss global issues i.e their future plans for
one world government, everything they talk about is kept secret.
nothing is transparent These are the people that are running the
show. The forthcoming G8 summit is another meeting of the wealthy,
this time the richest eight nations, they are meeting in Northern
Island this year to discuss/debate and resolve issues such as food
and health. David Cameron wants to talk about 'tax avoidance' What
ever is decided at the G8 Summit will already have been agreed by the
Bildenberg Group, so what ever decisions are taken over tax payments
to countries could be the start of a new global currency to be spent
by the New World Government when it elects itself in a few years time.
WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON????
Before I post what I was gonna post, I'm gonna post this... For some unknown unexplained and unauthorised reason one of my previous posts (Atrocity Aftermath June 7th) has been interfered with. I added an image to the post, just an old skool scissors and glue cut and paste job that I knocked up, scanned and uploaded today something I've done a million time before with no problems. Now this is the strange bit....it could just be coincidence but since I added the image, one word in the whole text has been highlighted and had a link added to it which when you move the cursor over it an advert for a supermarket pops up in a box????? This should not be happening, this blog is an advert free zone and doesn't endorse the sucking of corporate capitalist cock! I feel like the blog has been dirtied and sullied now, by the unsolicited and uninvited advert. I'd like to know how and why I have been molested with, without out even knowing it. If I was a paranoid person I'd say I was being monitored, but I can't imagine anyone in the secret shadowy world of surveillance would be remotely interested in anything I've got to say, but if any 'spooks' are reading this....The truth is out there, and the lies are being uncovered! FUCK YOU!

ATROCITY AFTERMATH.
“What we are thinking about is a
peaceful planet, we're not thinking about anything else. We're not
thinking about any kind of power; we're not thinking about any of
those kind of struggles; we're not thinking about revolution or war
or any of that. That's not what we want. Nobody wants to get hurt;
nobody wants to hurt anybody. We would all like to be able to live
an uncluttered life, a simple life, a good life, y'know, and think
about moving the human race ahead a step, or a few steps.” - Jerry
Garcia (March 1967)
Perhaps the US government should have
listened to the hippies alternative, instead of pumping the scene
full of drugs,and killing off any threat to their order. Imagine....a different world order, how things could
have been, would we be in the shit we are in now if different values
and morals had been promoted and followed at a political level? It's
all irrelevant really, because things are as they are, but what is
relevant, is.... that is how the powers that we let be like it to be,
it is how they have made it be because they don't like 'the
alternative' they start wars against difference in order to 'spread
democracy' and for economic gain.
A 'special relationship' with America
has seen Britain get involved with things that have, or had nothing
to do with us. I don't recall any Islamist terrorist attacks in
Britain before our involvement in George Bush's war on terror.
Over a week has passed since the
Killing of Drummer/Soldier Lee Rigby by Islamist terrorists on a
street in Woolwich, London. Whats been happening, well the flowers
grew and grew in a Princes Di moment of grief and mourning as people
paid tribute to the soldier at the spot he was killed.
One of the terrorists said they wanted
to start a war on the streets of London. Promptly and right on cue,
The EDL (English Defence League) took to 'our streets' and UAF (Unite
Against Fascism) came to defend them from 'Nazis' The BNP have also
crawled out of the woodwork and taken to the streets. Then news came
in that there has been an increase in attacks/assaults against
Muslims. A Mosque was fire-bombed when the culprits were caught it
tuns out they were former soldiers. Muslim prisoners take a guard
hostage amid claims they had been forced to pray for the dead
soldier. What was originally described as a 'lone wolf attack' has
resulted in ten arrests.
An Islamic Cultural centre has been
burned down, and the letters EDL were spray painted on the wall, does
this mean they were responsible? Who knows, it's the same as the war
memorial that had the word Islam daubed on it, does that mean it was
done by a Muslim? Not necessarily, it could just be a case of trying
to put the blame on to others in order to keep the fires of hatred
burning on both sides. Sometimes things are not what they seem and
there are unseen forces at work that manipulate situations for their
own ends. Truth is the first casualty of war.
Donations for the Help For Heroes
charity have increased since the attack, saving the government having
to take any responsibility for their actions in sending soldiers to
their death and disfigurement. In response to the attack the
government have set up a task force to “tackle extremism” and
there have been calls for increased surveillance of peoples internet
and email use; a snoopers charter that will do nothing to stop
another attack against our freedom/democracy happening, still there's
always the task force to “tackle extremism” who's gonna be the
tsar of that? Jim Davidson.
Just remember what ever new laws are
passed in the wake of Woolwich will be there for ever, and will be
available to enforce by whatever government is in power at the time.
The EDL and UAF are different sides to the same coin. Heads you win,
tails you lose, it all depends on what your definition of extremism
is, and the sort of society you want to live in, which is dictated by
whoever is in power. The only threat to our freedoms are the people
that accept and believe everything they are told by the powers that
they let be.
It turns out that not only were MI5
aware of one of the terrorists, but they had tried to get him to work
for them. This came out in a television interview with one of the
attackers friends, who was promptly arrested after he left the
studio. The same attacker had been detained in Kenya a few years ago
on his way to a terror training camp in Somalia. Kenyan authorities
reported their concerns and his detention to Britain’s security
services, It as also been reported that a SAS team was ready to
rescue him from his Kenyan captors. Perhaps he was working for them
on the streets of Woolwich? The leading actor in a terrorist drama
played out to create instability, uncertainty and paranoia.
One final thing, just to prove that the
lunatics really have taken over the asylum is the news that the arms
embargo against European countries supplying weapons to Syria has
been lifted and there has been talk of Britain arming the rebel
fighters, forgetting the fact that the rebels are made up of many
factions including Al Qaeda fighters. So lets get this
straight....Over ten years ago our government embarked on a war
against terror and now it is considering supplying weapons to forces
that may include the very people their war on terror has been
against. We will never win the war on terror, because every
government response/reaction to an attack threatens our civil
liberties and democratic freedoms. The more we meddle in the affairs
of others, the more they will hate us and want to attack us. The
more people that live in fear and ignorance of others cultures values
and faith the more divided society becomes....just the way that they
want it to be, to them there is no alternative
