A month after the arrival of Scotland's Hate Crime Act and it appears reports of the demise of the Scottish Enlightenment may have been premature, no thanks to the SNP but due to the doughty spirit of the Scots.

Should governments be able to censor online content for the entire world? That's what Australia is claiming the right to do. But do they really think China and Russia should be able to choose what the world sees?

When Irish eyes stop smiling...

It's not only their genocide in Iraq and Afghanistan: in England twenty-two-thousand old people died as a result of the cold last year. In Brussels however, the British PM shamelessly lied about his country as 'supporting a social Europe'.

by Henk Ruyssenaars

FPF - Brussels - June 24th 2005 - Unashamedly writing in Germany's 'Bild Zeitung' (gutter newspaper), two days ago, Bush supporting british PM Tony Blair defended his cancerous politics: 'Of course the EU is much more than a free-trade area. Britain supports a social Europe, but it must be a social Europe which is adapted to today's world" the text read.

Blair - nor the international mainstream media* - mentioned the fact that - according to Blair's government own figures - the English ''social system'' last winter resulted in the death by cold for 22.000 elderly people in the 'United Kingdom'.

They all tragically and unnecessary died in one of the richest countries on earth because they were made and kept poor (like the neocons do in the Netherlands) in Blair's inhuman 'social structure'. The dead are proof of the inhumanity Blair's cabal stands for.

This gigantic mountain of 22.000 corpses of the elderly [http://tinyurl.com/akpef] gets only eighteen 'hits' when searched on Google/Internet: media-wise the dead are silenced too, the story spiked and the mainstream's 'silence of death' reigns. Hiding the harsh, inhuman politics of the Blair regime's sick and shameful facts... The on the US neocons blamed WTC catastrophy showed 9/11 media coverage in a Google search ''9/11 +3000 dead'' results in ONE MILLION FIVE-HUNDRED-FIFTY-THOUSEND 'HITS...

US + UK: FREE MARKET APPROACH WITH NO SOCIAL DIMENSION

Because 'US stooge and mercenary' England is supposed to be at the (symbolic) helm of the European Union for the next half year, Blair - who must be held accountable for the daily growing misery in his country - started in Brussels with rejecting criticism that his Government favors a purely free market approach with no "social dimension".

Blair was saying he 'wants a balance between the two' and tried to reassure his critics that he 'does not want an overnight transformation but a managed process of change'. And that's what many in Europe are afraid of; the further and total take-over of Europe by the London Banks via Blair and associates.

As the representative of the 'Banks of London', [http://tinyurl.com/8cxyv], adviser, confidant and former close aide to Tony Blair, since november 2004 the Bush backing and in the London Banks circles highly praised Bilderberger Peter Mandelson, 51, has been their forward post in Europe. Their new 'Gauleiter'.*

The London Banks and the Bilderberg group [http://www.bilderberg.org/] appointed their man Mandelson to what is seen as Europe's most powerful job... Mandelson now is the (by them appointed, noy chosen) head of the European Commission in charge of all trade and it's policies.

So Europe is 'looking forward' to half a year of lies, innuendo, fake figures, propaganda, brainwashing and the further destruction of social schemes? The people running the neocon schemes and blue prints in many countries have no idea apparently of the swelling tide of global anger and what's awaiting them.

The verdict of the people finally taking revenge will be gruesome for many of the neocon perpetrators and supporters of the New World Order, of which the effects also clearly are shown in the british death toll.

This is the burning shame in Britain, the neocon 'sham' of a 'social structure' which Bush and Blair's cabal is selling 'as an example for the rest of the European Union', the article which is nearly hidden:

"MILLIONS OF OAPS LIVE IN POVERTY"

'AGE AUDIT' BASED ON GOVERNMENT STATISTICS

Monday June 6, 2005 - Millions of pensioners are malnourished, living below the poverty line and unable to afford to heat their homes in winter, according to new research.

The National Pensioners Convention (NPC) said an estimated 2.2 million older people, the equivalent of one in five pensioners, currently lived below the poverty line, the same number as in 1997.

At the same time it said about 1.5 million pensioners were malnourished or at serious risk of malnourishment, while 1.5 million also said their house was too cold in winter.

The Age Audit, which was based on Government statistics and major pieces of research into the lives of elderly people, also found that an estimated 22,000 people died as a result of the cold last year.

The group said around five million pensioners suffered from a long-term illness that restricted their daily life, while 7.2 million did not have access to free public transport.

But at the same time it estimated that retired people actually saved the taxpayer £24 billion a year through providing unpaid social care and childcare, and through doing voluntary work.

The audit comes as the NPC is due to hold its annual Pensioners' Parliament in Blackpool which will be attended by about 2,000 people. It is due to be addressed by Pensions Minister Stephen Timms.

The group is putting forward a Pensioners' Charter calling for all older people to have access to a decent state pension, free health care and a warm and comfortable home.

It wants to see the basic state pension set above the official poverty line and linked to average earnings.

It is also calling for pensioners to have access to a free annual health check, free long-term care, free community care for people living at home and free nationwide travel on public transport.

[END ITEM*]

People who support this, and all so called 'journalists' and other 'spin' criminals who help 'sell' this, commit a crime against humanity and will be punished by law, as soon as is possible.

The US/Israeli neocon's regime is inhumane.

They must be stopped.
