I was looking back over my recent Twitter timeline and found a reference to a Freedom of Information request. I copied the pdf link but for the life of me I can’t remember who posted it so apologies to them for “stealing your thunder…” In a nutshell the matter refers to the Metropolitan Police and items confiscated from people attending
AS a kid I dreamed of being a reporter and if I couldn’t do that the next best thing for me was a job as a war photographer… This is a quick post praising the work of these amazing people ~ many of whom risk life and limb to get the photo that gets the truth out… Here’s an excellent

WITH the Occupy Wall Street movement showing no signs of slowing ~ if anything the the world is waking up and listening ~ the protest is about to go global… And with that groundswell of support comes the arrival of the mainstream media and the casting of its fickle spotlight on the brave band of protesters who are shining a

SO was the stock market trader Alessio Rastani who appeared on the BBC claiming Goldman Sachs ruled the world really a cruel hoax..? To be honest I don’t really care if he was one of the famous Yes Men (great movie btw) ~ what this guy actually said is sadly all too true, particularly when you look at Obama’s Whitehouse…

BRUTALITY against peaceful protesters demonstrating in a public square usually garners sound bites of condemnation from leaders of free democracies. The deafening silence at the brutal atrocities carried out by many of New York’s finest speaks volumes… A seemingly out of control police force waded into Wall Street this weekend, bludgeoning, spraying mace into the eyes of defenceless young women

SCREWED ~ “we are all totally screwed” I think is the phrase the experts are desperately trying not to use as they pop up on our TVs and in our newspapers… As our financiers, politicians and experts “stare down the barrel” of economic collapse, no one it seems has any idea what to do. Except perhaps the founders of the

TROY DAVIS was murdered last night by lethal injection. He became just another blood soaked statistic on the long long list of American prisoners killed by a justice system that shows no sign of giving up its barbaric blood lust… A campaign calling for his case to be reinvestigated drew support from celebrities, former president Jimmy Carter, a senior FBI
AUSTERITY seems to be flying over the heads of the art world judging by the latest loony toons style “art-work” that has cost a staggering half a million quid. But the so called “Nowhere Island” is just the tip of the iceberg of an even more bonkers “arty wing” of the Cultural Olympiad… But first to the symbolic pile of

I CAN remember covering a planning story for my local newspaper where the owners of a luxury house in the green belt were “ordered” to remove garden gnomes from their garden… Apparently it offended the locals and made the pretty little village look tacky. I lambasted the idiocy of the planning laws and indeed wrote a tongue in cheek piece
AS the world enters into one of the most disastrous recessions since records began the British Government has come up with a dastardly plan to stop the hungry from rioting, begging and stealing… Nope this is not a review of some newly found Dickensian novel ~ this is what is happening in the UK in 2011. As of today: Timeline:
