BrainWashing in the UK

On returning to England after spending 1 month in China/Poland, the amount of Brainwashing by the UK media, particularly Channel 4 News, is alarming.

It seems the news is a 60-40 mix of actual news and stories to wash the status quo or ‘current thinking’ over our work weary brains.

Gordy
Take Gordon Brown.
Who really gives a fuck about Gordon Brown or what Gordon Brown is doing?

The Media?

Anyone else???

Anti Muslim
Like John Reid’s warning parents to look out for Anti-Muslim bullying in schools.
These people are running wild on our streets blowing people up, buses, trains and shoes. Anything they can get their hands on.

Is this shit I really wanting filtering through my synapses?

As a conscious human being I take exception.

No Lefty
Don’t think I’ve been watching lefty channels either, I spent most of my time watching CNN and BBC World service whilst away.

Adult
As an adult I’m capable of taking in information and forming a viewpoint then not telling anyone else what it is.

Seeing

As there as nothing too do as I missed my plane, i’m here in the Sofitel, a first for me.

My room is on the 7th floor.

I’ve got a view of the runway watching the planes taking off whilst I sip stella from the Sofitsal mini-bar.

Hail BA
Travelling with BA Connect.

Terrorist Threat
Yeah it’s all plastic bags and long queues. I’ve still got my bag it looks like this.

I don’t really have any advice for anyone travelling under this terrorist threat.

You can check my site lonelyplanetexchange.
I’ve kept a log of the operators with cancellations.

The budget operators are worst affected because their slots are shorter.

Here’s a picture of me.

April Foold

Seems the most intelligent people have been making april fools this year. BMW told us there were fines for going too slow and they had painted their cars with special paint.
FlyBe one of the flights operators on lonelyplanetexchanges tried to tell us they had appointed 5 millionaire non-executives directors.

If you know of any other fools out there, intelligent or otherwise, do get in touch. I’m sure you will.

License Fee Riots

Why do we brits pay this scandalous and should be illegal tax.

If the license fee were introduced tomorrow by the labour government;

1) You (the electorate) Have To pay for channels on your Television (by law).

2) Once you’ve paid your money, we take it off you, (cash, cheque or direct debit), the money goes to one of the worlds biggest corporations. Ok?

3) You have no say, no buy or leave, no choice.

No value if you, like me, never watch the BBC.

Rights?
Where are our civil rights?

With the advent of Hard Drive recording spelling the effective end of the five minute AD break, we have ALL channels on a level playing field, except for one.

If the independents are doing it better, our government should remove this tax, harking back to bygone technologies and trading conditions ,and introduce something which reflects the environment in which our broadcasting and media companies have to operate today.
