Those poor RBS bankers. They find it so hard to motivate themselves, they need a massive bonus to get themselves up in the morning.
Imagine a nurse coming in late to work with the words ” you know I just cant be arsed unless I get a massive bonus” while leaving patients stranded and fending for themselves.
Billy Bragg is having another go this Sunday at Speakers corner to motivate the crowd and put pressure on the Government to limit the RBS to a mere £25,000.
Sly and Reggie and the Middle Class Sound System will be there, with Sly on the mic.
New track Lets Give The Bankers A Spanking on Last.fm
The 10:23 Homeopathy ”there’s nothing in it” campaign had its mass overdose protest day today.
Sly and Reggie were there outside the Conway Hall in Red Lion Sq to serenade the skeptics as they swallowed a massive number of homeopathic remedies in one big gulp.
Our biggest result of the day was getting support from the traffic warden parking guy who let us park up without needing a permit. He said we were ‘for the people’ and that made our day.
Simon Singh was there as well as Dave Gorman and media galore taking interviews.
I dont think Sly and Reggie were needed amongst the throng but hey..it was sunny. Had a great drive home through Soho and over a bright and sunny Westminster Bridge.
Lyrics
Its 10;23 and I’m feeling sleepy
There’s poetry in the memory of water
And I lose myself amongst atoms and space
My excessive dilution brings me absolution
Its 10:23 amd im feeling sleepy
There’s nothing in it, I know but poetry and water
This great photo taken at the Photographers Not Terrorists mass gathering at the weekend by Sean Mclean.
Huge turnout and great atmosphere as hundreds of snappers snapped away, mostly at each other.
This campaign to show the police that a proper balance must be struck between civil liberties and police powers.
The skeptics are having a pop at Boots for selling homeopathic remedies that contain more suggestion than actual active ingredients. The 1023 campaign is planning a mass overdosing of homeopathic sleeping pills by skeptics next Saturday.
Here is Sly and Reggie joining the campaign with the hypnotic ‘Its 10:23 And I’m Feeling Sleepy”
Patricia Hewitt and Geoff Hoon are asking for a secret ballot on Gordon Brown and the Labour leadership.
Patricia Hewitt on Radio 4 today made me choke on my noodles when she tried to sell the ballot as a way of confirming Gordon Brown’s leadership! Yeah right. With friend like Geoff Hoon who needs enemies.
Apparently stirring up a leadership kerfuffle is a good way to get Gordon Brown in a stronger position to fight the Tories, only Tony Blair followers could attempt such double speak bullshit.
So lets all sing along to the Sly and Reggie track ‘Stay Gordon Stay‘ recorded for just this sort of occasion.
Newsnight have had to eat dirt…toxic dirt over the Trafigura case. Because the 30,000 Ivorians who sued Trafigura got paid out before the issue of deaths was established in court it meant that Newsnight would have to win that argument in court….a very expensive libel action indeed. So its cheaper to backdown despite widespread evidence to the contrary.
Libel Laws need reforming…to get to the truth more easily.
