Why that title?
Well I have been subscribing to Independent Daily for quite a number of years now and our brilliant editors Viv and Debbie have been forensically and faithfully diagnosing and reporting the fake news and distortions of the truth and not least the possible “criminal” silences of our supposedly democratic elected leaders aided in their infamy by the MSM, much of the national and international establishment and many of the so-called (and self-named) “elite” – you know, those who consider themselves older and better than me, and a considerable number of the population as peasants who must not under any circumstances be or become `informed` lest they get to the truth and overturn the shop.
The referendum for Brexit was the moment that catalysed over 40 years of misrule and deliberate obfuscation by those said elders and betters. The penny dropped at last.
The positive result meant that all that had gone before would be reversed, wiped out, those rogues and buffoons had had their day – they were (or ought to have been) history.
Oh yes! that`s all well and good, but when are we getting round to “The Fringe”?
Let me explain: after Brexit Eldorado failed to appear, all the previously failed usual suspects` reappeared, resumed their cosy, often illegal conspiracy, and set out to frustrate the simple instruction for them to bring about a complete Brexit which was the return of FULL Sovereignty over every aspect of this nation`s life and existence.
Eventually, the fear campaign waged by the Remain adherents before the Referendum failed ignominiously, the peasants refused to be browbeaten and won.
However, come the fightback after the referendum and FEAR as the main weapon re-emerged.
Not only the Brexit result got the fear treatment, but the newly hatched Chinese Disease was seized upon for similar FEAR treatment, not just for the dissimilation element of denying the public a real debate on the whys and wherefores of this virus, treatments, panaceas, and international input, but for the opportunity to seize power uncontrolled by parliament.
The most visual element of fear was always to stress that “we are on the “cliff edge”, whether it was of economic disaster, international pariahdom, NHS overwhelming, mental disease from incarceration or lack of early treatment for cancer, heart problems, and obesity complications.
The modus operandi in every case has been to engender a depressing picture of forthcoming disaster yea catastrophe.
So there you are! We have been made to believe we are always on the edge, brim, or FRINGE of something nasty.
I am presently `holidaying` not far from Edinburgh. That beautiful city has for many years since the war been holding an Edinburgh Festival. For a number of early years events were primarily “upper cultural level”, but over later years other more or less impromptu events have almost overtaken the first comers and have become established as the “Fringe”.
As I say, I have been appreciating the work of this publication`s editors in commenting on many of the inconsistencies or downright lies promulgated by the government or their allies, in effect casting an iron curtain over the “real situation” on virtually any topic, but now they ensure in the time of Lockdown that there is little vocal interplay amongst the population or in their own media like Facebook and Twitter.
Independence Daily is not alone in its writings. In fact when Viv drew our attention on Saturday to “the various segments in yesterday`s Lockdown Sceptics”, I was astonished to see the list of bloggers and stories which, when taken together, are a compelling story and force. And what`s more, I now understand this list is just scratching the surface of those seeking to be heard and to bring about the reversal of government policy, for want of a more damning word: “stupidity” in denying overwhelming contra evidence.
I am also aware that without cohesion this contra voice will never be heard or prevail, that`s even if it isn`t nipped in the bud and quashed.
I would suggest an MSM “Fringe” be formed, properly funded, and running its own newspaper and radio and television news channel. To run alongside the MSM.
Great article, Roger Turner.
It’s a crying shame there was never a mega rich tycoon who was on OUR side, who had made enough trillions to buy the media and TPTB worldwide and act as a counterweight to Gates and Soros. Or do you need to be an evil ruthless b…..d to make money on that scale?
Kim rightly calls for localism. There is an illusion of increased localism but it’s false. People think power devolved to local mayors and councils returns power to the people. In reality power is even more centralised than ever. It appears local regions regions are just bite sized chunks which are more easily controlled by centralised power.
Thanks for the encouragement Mary
Do you know those two characters had crossed my mind also, but as best qualified to head such an organisation as their claimed purpose of ensuring “the people” have proper democratic representation at the anvil of power
What a marvellous vehicle for redemption and atonement!
Who do we know who would put this proposition to them?
(Somewhere at the back of my mind are pilgrimages where roadside shrines offered similar intermediary services for redemption of sins)
I see the latest wheeze in the ”virus of mass destruction – immunity only lasts six weeks.
Right, so that means the World cannot ever get out of this ‘martial law’ curfew. And there is no point in a vacination, right?
As reported previously – I’ve had german measles three times this year but chicken pox only twice . . . I’ll stop telling fibs if you do . . .
To my mind there are two important considerations to be made when attempting to find what solutions there are are to the present predicament of society democracy (sic), institutions and main stream media. They are ‘Big’ and ‘Hierarchy’.
The Big is a misunderstood concept usually equating to efficiency and resourcefulness. In reality Big becomes a game of control and domination. Big is not necessarily efficient unless maybe building a Jumbo Jet an Aircraft Carrier or running the nation’s power grid. On the contrary Big does not supply wellbeing ownership, happiness or accountability or in a lot of cases efficiency. The sooner the concept of ‘big is better’ is trashed the sooner we can put that mistake aside and deal with ‘Hierarchy’.
Hierarchy is believed to provide organisation structure leadership and again efficiency. Hierarchy may well work in the Army or in Logistics. In reality it sucks up to status, importance and again for those reasons it does not always provide efficiency. Hierarchy is a natural human trait but it comes with problems. It is an indulgence that we can no longer afford and the sooner arrogant people realise that they are not special cases or more important than Joe Bloggs the more happier and content the rest of us will be.
If you take those two and put them together!
BIG + HIERARCHY = MEGLOMANIA with a by-product of Toadies.
Could I suggest that a way is found to, yes, have a reset. Not the reset the Globalists want but a political and financial reset that suits the ordinary person thus making the ‘new normal’ our new normal not their new normal.
Perhaps in supporting Common Law and Localism with subsidiarity we may have such a reset. That alas will be the only way the power of the MSM will be broken.
In one sense the answer to the present dilemma is so simple but getting influential people to understand that and then work together effectively is anything but.
It’s not just the MSM that’s been corrupted, its everything. Parliament, Westminster, Plod, the NHS, every public sector committee or quango that has been infiltrated or consumed by Common Purpose and the corruption that follows.
And now we are all being held to ransom by a bunch of psychotic billionaires, with a story being lapped up by a gullible public (clearly not ID followers) who will literally get away with murder with their new “vaccines”, much as Boris & co will when the reckless care home deaths, amongst others, are whitewashed.
I suggest the answer lies in key people realising they have to work together, in an organisation designed to allow them as co-leaders to do just that, each with different area of responsibility, eg. a political head, a medical head, a media head, a legal head, as many heads as necessary, each tackling their respective centres of corruption, all supported by a Party organisation, brave enough to take on the entire existing political establishment. No one can do that on his (or her) own.
It may yet happen. As an early “conspiracy theorist” I couldn’t help but notice that it took cleverer people a lot longer to catch up with the possibility that there might be an ulterior motive, because they assumed (wrongly as it turned out) that their professional opinions were of interest to our mutual enemies, the official reaction (none) to The Great Barrington Declaration being a case in point.
I still hope they will all get angry enough to act, in concert. Divided. Conquered. United. That’s where hope lies, imho.
This is an excellent expose’ of the continuing lies and propaganda spewing out of the mouths of politicians and “experts” who at best are ignorant of the facts or are following instructions from a higher authority. The World Economic Forum has laid out it’s plans and this criminal organisation needs taking down.
I think you will find that has already happened with the creation of GB News Channel headed up by Andrew Neil and others due to hit the airwaves next year. Apparently they have already been warned by Ofcom that their news must be impartial. Have the likes of the BBC, Sky News and more latterly LBC been given these words of advice I wonder. No, I thought not, you couldn’t make it up. Ofcom must be stuffed full of clowns and buffoons……….
Buffoons- got it in one, they “Ofcom” need scrapped as they are in cahoots with the enemy-MSM communists
How could Andrew Neil be considered anything but impartial?
He must be the most impartial person on earth, after all he was trained in that cauldron of impartiality – the BBC
My only doubt is for the purpose of an effective “FRINGE” he would be more impartial than even the BBC
Well, I think his politics is centre right and is a Brexiteer. However I have seen him also giving Nigel Farage a hard time in one interview, talking of which Farage was supposedly one of those setting up this GB News Channel, but then I read pretty recently that he is thinking about buying out Talk Radio for £15 million pounds. I just wished instead that he had done something with The Brexit Party but this seems ever more likely a pipe dream…
“over 40 years of misrule and deliberate obfuscation by those said elders and betters…” and still it goes on. The telling date will be the 31 December when I hope, with no great confidence, that we may finally get the exit from the EU that we voted for. No doubt in my mind that full use will be made of the New Year celebrations to obscure the important detail of our final “exit ” from the EU.
How very convenient the emergence of the virus was to try and shift our focus… will it ever end now government sees the advantage it has given them?
