		<description>Far more humerous than my placard, but it clearly shows the danger of someone relying on one book for their morals (let alone their understanding of biology, geology, history, archaeology etc). After all, Das Kapital was split into three volumes!</description>

		<description>I agree that it is time for the union leaderships to stand up and be counted. 

Up to this point ALL unions have failed to step up to the mark

Let&#039;s hope they finally realise that we are fighting a class war and the Tories and their liberal colaborators have been allowed to make many blows already with very little resistance

		<description>This puts me in mind of a brilliant novel, written in 1992 by Sue Townsend (of Adrian Mole fame), entitled &#039;The Queen &amp; I&quot;.

The Queen and I is a 1992 novel/play written by Sue Townsend.

The setting is the UK, after the 1992 General Election, where the House of Windsor has just been deprived of its Royal status by the People&#039;s Republican Party and its members are made to live like normal Britons.

After a People&#039;s Republican Party government is elected by the British people, who were influenced by subliminal messages sent through their TV sets by members of the television technicians union manipulated by Jack Barker, the Royal Family has to leave Buckingham Palace and must move to a council house estate. Barker, as the new Prime Minister, transforms Britain into a republic and dismantles the monarchy.

In Hellebore Close (aptly known as &quot;Hell Close&quot; to its longtime residents), the new home of the Royal Family, they learn to cope with the normal day of ordinary people. The Queen - now called Mrs Windsor - is not allowed to take all her beloved corgies to her new home in &quot;hell Close&quot;, only Harris is with her and Charles has to learn that you can&#039;t keep horses in a council house garden. The Queen is visited by a social worker but refuses to let her in. The Queen learns how to use a zipper or buttons and that five hours of waiting to see a doctor in an ordinary hospital is not unusual. She gets to know that living with a small pensioner&#039;s income is hard and that you have to organize your budget. On the whole, the Queen quickly learns to cope with the situation and later does not want to go back to Buckingham Palace because of all the duties that would await her there.

On the other hand, her husband Philip cannot cope with the situation. He refuses to eat, is annoyed by sharing a bed with his wife and would like to be anywhere but in Hellebore Close.

Charles, former Prince of Wales, discovers his great love for gardening. While he and his wife Diana, Princess of Wales, begin affairs with their neighbours, their children, William and Harry, think the whole situation is an adventure. Later Charles is imprisoned and sentenced for attacking a police officer, a crime he did not actually commit. His sister Anne, Princess Royal, takes up with a local handyman. Prince Andrew, Duke of York, is briefly mentioned to be serving aboard a submarine under the Arctic ice cap. Their neighbours, who are at first sceptical, eventually include the ex-Royals in their society and help them as much as their own circumstances allow.

Although the Queen Mum is the oldest, she learns very fast how to cope with the new situation, but even in the poor circumstances of Hellebore Close she cannot stop herself from betting on horses. Her death shakes the whole neighbourhood and everyone takes part in her cheap, but solemn funeral. A disgruntled fishmonger and his wife start a campaign to &quot;Bring Our Monarch Back&quot;, under its acronym BOMB.

Jack Barker and his so called “Kitchen Cabinet” make very expensive promises to the voters, e.g. raising pensions or renewing schools, and soon get into trouble with foreign creditors. After talks with the Japanese Emperor, Barker announces that Britain is to become part of the Japanese Empire, with himself as Governor General. In return, all repayments to Japan are suspended indefinitely. This agreement is sealed by the marriage of the Emperor&#039;s daughter Sayako to Edward, the Queen’s youngest son.

It is then revealed that the whole story was the Queen&#039;s nightmare, waking to find that the Conservatives have won the Election instead - as indeed actually happened: John Major was returned as Prime Minister. However, in 2006 a sequel, Queen Camilla, was published, in which the Royals still live in Hell Close and Jack Barker is still in power.</description>

		<description>Although I consider the Royals a danger to democracy, I still would not wish them any harm.

Rather, I would say let them keep the palaces and the riches - just don&#039;t allow them any further interference, involvement or influence in our political system - after that they become an irrelevance.</description>

		<description>I think it important that we avoid using PayPal as a conduit to receive donations - purely because of what we stand for (and also what we stand against, i.e. Paypal).</description>

		<description>Would it help if there was a downloadable &#039;Standing Order Instruction Form&#039; available to download (as PDF) from within this web site for people to download, print, fill out and post back to their bank?

Alternatively, we might give out the WPM Bank Account Number and its associated Sort Code within the web site, thus allowing people to set up a monthly Standing Order with their bank of their own accord.</description>

		<description>Is there any way we could register / set up the WPM as either a Political organisation, a Co-Operative or even a Charity that would allow us to fundraise legitimately? As I understand it, only Charities are allowed to go &#039;tin rattling&#039;, but first they need to be registered by the Charities Commission.</description>

		<description>Luckily, Hubbard&#039;s old pop-psychology rip of is getting increasingly dated. It was written in the 1950s and it hasn&#039;t become any better since, I think the goop people of Tonbridge will see balderdash when they see it.</description>

		<description>It is not the books we fear, but the agenda, crimes, scams and frauds that we hate.

The Godless Cult of Sin and Greed is all that we Ex-Scientologists claim it is.
1. It kills, beats up, harms, harasses, stalks, and in always possible victimizes any ex-member and anyone else that opposes their evil agenda.
2. In the Sea Org., it forces its slave members to get abortions. It kills innocent babies so the mother can be more productive as a low paid slave.

3. It uses its slaves to repair the new bought buildings with money you have donated, which remain nearly empty years later, for pennies an hour. Its non-volunteer contracted workers get the lowest wages (.10 to .40 cents an hour) in the civilized world and work the longest (70-80) hours.
4. It exposes all your own sins and secrets in your endless Security Checks and/or required non-voluntary confessionals to bring you harm and destroy you, when you expose their evil Godless agenda and policy letters.
5. It has its own prison camp (The Rehabilitation Project Force, or RPF-- punishment duty for unsatisfactory workers and children) with Ronbot guards with automatic assault weapons, where you are sent if you fail to be very productive or angry or upset with your slavery. Slaves are not allowed to voluntarily leave or even escape and will be shot if they try. 95% of the slaves that finally are allowed to leave, soon leave the cult. The other 5% are sent to “fair game” the rest.
6. It has broken up hundreds of thousands of families by their Godless policies of Disconnection and Fair Game. Many parents have committed suicide after losing their kids.
7. If you oppose them, the Godless cult sends their slaves to your neighbors, job, relatives and friends to ask questions in such a way, that makes them think you are a rapist, criminal, sociopath, drug addict, child molester, Gay or Lesbian or a deviant, without any proof or verified criminal complaint. They use this Godless tactic to ruin you, cause you to get fired, and cause your friends and relatives to avoid you or even intentionally cause you to commit suicide. 
8. As a last resort they will poison your pets or let them loose to get run over, break into your house for any evidence to blackmail you, plant drugs in your car or house or hit you to make you retaliate and film you when you do, and then they will sue you and/or have you arrested. 
There are hundreds of other reasons to run from this Godless cult. But I think you get an idea of its evil.
Please help us Independent Scientologists to bring back ethics, humanity, compassion, honesty and integrity back into the group. Help us stop them! Note! all the above has been verified as true over the years by Governments and hundreds of thousands of Ex-Scientologists.
