Heroes of Freedom and Democracy

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Miles Cooper and the Buddhist Monks of Burma. Both fighting for freedom and democracy, and both suffering from the actions of repressive regimes.

Now I am sure that a small number of the brain-washed or the brain-dead will quibble at my linking of these two struggles. But long before 9/11 the western “democracies” have been inventing many varied and subtle means of repression, not least of which has been the surveillance society of CCTV cameras, joined-up-databases, ID cards and DNA profiling. It is the duty of every free-born Englishman to resist by all available means the imposition of this electronic fascism. Gordon Brown is Stalin to Blairs’ Hitler.
