As if by magic our liberty is stolen

"Whoever would overthrow the liberty 

of a nation must begin by subduing the freeness of speech."

Benjamin Franklin. American author, printer, political theorist, politician, postmaster, scientist, inventor, civic activist, statesman, diplomat, and one of the Founding Fathers of the United States

Reflect on this headline, dear reader, and consider my often repeated observation that ‘there is nothing new under the Sun’. Liberty, as it was understood down the centuries, is being subdued all over the planet by those who would rule over us. As they have always done. 

Through the power of modern telecommunications our rulers apply their rules as if on steroids. And we allow them to do so. Until.

Until we see them as they are. Not as concerned beneficiaries for you and me but as self-interested egotists. The warning coming to us from days of yore is the same as ever: ‘Give them an inch and they will take a mile’. (Or the metric equivalent). So, why give them an inch?

Like so many of us I’ve heard the various leaders of the packs who strut their stuff in search of popular acclaim and endorsement. I’ve read their newspaper articles; I’ve even attended various public meetings where some have tried to cast their spells on their willing adherents. 

Perhaps, unbeknown to me, I’m becoming one of them because I write in an attempt to inform and wake others and cause minds to change. But I don’t want to be a leader. Not at my age.

What I want – what I really, really want – is to see the minds of family, friends, neighbours, community and country become AWARE and AWAKE to the diet of lies fed to them each day. I want them to ask WHO, WHAT, WHY, WHEN. 
Children do it naturally all the time. Adults are too often too sophisticated (meaning un-natural) and too defensive of their own supposed status (meaning their pride) to stop and reflect. We have too few quiet moments in among the hurly-burly of work, family and other responsibilities. Think Simon and Garfunkel and their 59th Street Bridge Song (Feeling Groovy). “Slow down, you move too fast.”

I think, too, of the words of media interrogator Sir Robin Day when he interviewed the then Defence Secretary, John Nott, at the time of the Falklands War. 

(See https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/4727494/Why-I-walked-out-on-Robin-Day.html)

John Nott begins his explanation with the words: “MOST politicians have five minutes of fame before they disappear forever.” We, lemmings that we are, allow them their five minutes (figuratively speaking) and we and our children and grand children reap the whirlwind. Even that proverbial expression isn’t new. Look it up in the Old Testament, Hosea, chapter 8, verse 7. It’s in the book!

Then think about the actions and words of our current Prime Minister, and our current Leader of the Opposition; the Leader of any other party you care to identify – all of them are here today and will be gone tomorrow, and our descendents will bear the benefits and the consequences which are our legacy UNLESS WE STAND AND INSIST that ‘they’ STOP.  Cease and desist, as my old Head Master used to say. Better still, don’t allow them access-to-your-mind-time. Or, as Groucho Marx said: “I don’t want to join any club that would have me as a member.” 

Why? Because their assumptions and assertions are no better than yours or mine. In essence, time and time again they assert, in effect, ‘I’m right and you are wrong . . .  unless you agree with me . . . in which case both of us are right.’  Rarely do ‘they’ admit that they are wrong. Why would they? They want your vote.

Groucho Marx also said; “Who are you going to believe? Me, or your own eyes?” Already the day is upon us when only ‘they’ are permitted freeness of speech. Everyone else is guilty of an –ism. And –isms aren’t allowed.  That has to be worth thinking about.

And there is nothing new under the Sun.

REALISE WITH REAL EYES THE REAL LIES

Next time – what can we do about it?

I WANT TO BE FREE!

There's no joy in my heart,

Only sorrow

And I'm sad

As a man can be

I sit alone in the darkness

Of my lonely room

And this room

Is a prison to me

I look at my window

And what to I see

I see a bird

Way up in the tree

I want to be free free

Free - ee - ee - ee

I want to be free

Like the bird in the tree

(Elvis Presley)

25“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?
(The Gospel according to Matthew, chapter 6)

Now there’s a thought.

What it’s All Really About?

by William Keyte

Right, for goodness sake keep reading and don’t stop until the end! I'm going to try and break this subject down into short enough chunks that you won't think 'I can't read this now, I haven't got the time' - or something similar. 

Sorry to be a little bit irksome here, but not enough people are doing the reading. We need to get off our backsides and educate ourselves. If you do not know the material presented in this document, then you're already playing into the hands of the deep state which simply wants you as a spineless and compliant slave to the Orwellian corporate future that they’ve planned for all of us. 

What follows is some of the most important information you will receive about how the state and government is supposed to function. If you find any of this information difficult to believe or swallow in any way then read the longer articles in the Learning Resources section of the New Chartist Website that back up these statements. www.newchartistmovement.com 

Here we go ... 

The Problem 

Many of us know already that humans are under extreme threat right now. The 'conspiracy theorists' were right all along. A small group (relatively speaking) are, indeed, engaged in conspiracy to defraud, harm and enslave the ordinary people. The conspiratorial nature of our reality is indeed undeniable, but it all stems from one problem: That people, now, following constant propaganda over millennia, are always looking for someone or something else to do things for them! 

Stick with me, this is important. 

The most obvious expression of this is in the formation of a government to do things for us. (Dangerous move - but OK, as long as you understand the principles laid out in this document). The system of governance that we (the people) created for our society has taken authority over us; but it should be the other way around: The creator should always remain in authority over that which it has created.  

The government that we created to perform jobs for us, was infiltrated (along with practically every other government) by a cabalistic (meaning obscure, mysterious, dark and arcane) group which is now being used to control us. This wouldn't have happened if the fundamental principles of how a state is supposed to function always remained known and understood by the people. Specifically: A legitimately-formed society always subordinates its government. 

The United Kingdom, once England, was and is meant to be a legitimately-formed state because its governing system was always intended to fall under the authority of the people. It was an example of true Equity in which all people are equal under the law. People are not subject to the law in slightly different ways and nor should some be more privileged than others. All are subject to it equally including the head-of-state, in our case: The Monarch.

How? Read on, this is critical... 

A bit of a Shock to Many 

It was never intended for the people to influence their government and state merely through voting in elections. That is not the primary mechanism by which the people hold their government to account - contrary to what most people believe. The real name for this system of voting in elections - especially a party political system - is 'Suffrage'. And as we all know, it doesn't work anyway. Most people believe, incorrectly, that this system of voting is called Democracy. 

Wrong! This is the first surprise. We have been deceived about what Democracy really is. And when you understand what it really is, you'll realise very quickly that it is the most valuable thing the people can have. This will be a shock, even for many in the 'awake and aware' community - especially in America where it is common to argue that they are a republic, and not a democracy. This is false - they are actually both: a Democratic Republic. The ‘republic’ bit merely describes the style of the head of state (a president) as opposed to a Monarchy in the UK. But it's the 'Democratic' part that is the crucial bit - and you'll see why. 

Read on - keep going! 

The real constitutional mechanism by which our government is subordinated, and maintains us in authority is, in fact, the real definition of Democracy itself - and it’s not voting in elections! Many in the 'truth' movement have been tricked into believing that we don't want a Democracy - simply because we've been told, wrongly, it's about voting. It’s Not!

So What is Democracy Really? 

Real Democracy is what the conspirators have been desperate to hide over the last 800 years. It contains a very powerful mechanism that keeps the people in authority over their government at all times - not merely once every four or five years! This will surprise many. 

Common Law Trial by Jury 

Don't stop reading - there's more to this, because real Common Law Trial by Jury (which doesn't operate today) contains a devastating weapon that has been deliberately hidden from the people. It's called Annulment by Jury. Most people think that Trial by Jury is simply there for us to judge the accused. No - that is not the only reason. In fact it could be argued that that is merely the secondary and less important reason for Trial by Jury. Full, unabridged Trial by Jury which should be in place today, allows the jury (a small sample of our community) to throw out government-created law (legislation). 

Yes, you did read that correctly! The real judges in a proper Common Law Trial are the jury: not the Judge! The Judge's role has been renamed from 'Convenor' - merely an administrator. They won't like to hear that! 

The jury is supposed to judge on all aspects of the case - which doesn't happen now. There are lots of crucially important things that I could tell you about real Trial by Jury, but I won't because I'm keeping this short and sweet. But this is the biggy!... If the accused has indeed technically broken the legislation, then as jurors, people think they are supposed to return a 'guilty' verdict to reflect the facts of the case and back-up the law. No! This is not the case. Because the jury is supposed to be judging on fairness and justice - specifically, they are looking for malicious intent. Does it feel right according to my conscience, to punish this man - regardless of whether he has technically broken the law? It is perfectly possible and right that a common law jury returns a not-guilty verdict even though the accused may have technically breached some piece of government legislation. 

But, ladies and gentlemen, the effect of this is spectacular!... If that happens, then under Common Law, that piece of government legislation is found to be defective and begins the process of being extracted from the statute books!! That's the biggest bombshell for the political class because they don't like it up 'em. The people (could even be one individual) is responsible for throwing out government-created law! 

Don't you just love it!? Think about it people, because, under common law, a guilty verdict can only be returned if it's unanimous (all jurors return a guilty decision), just one individual member of our community could be the cause of bringing about the end to an unfair, impractical or unworkable piece of legislation! One dissenter causes a Not-Guilty verdict. That's power of the people, ladies and gents. Now do you get it!?? This could happen at any point - whenever there is a trial. So government legislation is meant to be tested under Common Law at all times and is always subject to the authority of the people. The government’s own ‘law’ could and should be tested every day all over the country under our authority!! 

Social Contract 

That is the social contract that people talk about. We are led to believe in some rather vague, airy-fairy way that the social contract is all about the government being allowed to govern as long as the system of representation is maintained (voting). Rubbish! 

The social contract is that the government is allowed to 'govern' as long as it remains subservient to the rule of law: which is the people being in judicial authority over them through Trial and Annulment by Jury - as it was in ancient Greece! Parliament is not sovereign: the people are sovereign. Sorry, politicians, life's such a bitch isn't it? In essence this means that the people are the government. 

Different Jurisdictions of Law 

Just to clarify. There are different jurisdictions or 'layers' in law. Government is allowed to create ‘law’ (called legislation through creating Acts of Parliament). But all of this not only has to be ratified by our head-of-state - the Queen, but is also put to the test every single time it comes up in a trial. Common Law is a higher jurisdiction of law and is created by the people (not government) and not (as is often claimed by people in the Judiciary) judges. It is created through the decisions made by the people when they sit on juries. Common Law is a consolidation of the decisions of juries. All government-created ‘law’ (legislation) must be in alignment with Common Law. Now do you get the picture?! Where does all this come from? 

Magna Carta 1215: the Original and Best 

That's your constitution, people! The last time I looked, it was definitely written as well. Yes, you have a written constitution - contrary again to what others would have you believe. And yes, in their nasty, conniving way, they created their own preferred ‘power-grabbing’ versions of it later on to replace the original that they didn’t like. But it was unlawful to attempt this - as these were only legislature versions (from parliament). The Government can’t write constitutional law and is not allowed to write itself into a higher position within that stratum. Government can only repeal or amend legislation – which means anything that government has created previously. Government cannot write itself into judicial authority. Government is contained within the Common Law. And the 1215 Magna Carta was written and sealed before the formation of parliament. 

Effects of Brexit or Remain 

What happens if we affirm our position in EU and don't leave? All those powerful mechanisms I’ve just described, that protect the people and keep them in authority over their government will disappear, because EU doesn't have Common Law. In EU, you're guilty until proved innocent. EU doesn’t have Trial by Jury - because EU uses the Napoleonic system of law. Nasty! 

Now do you think staying in EU is a good thing? 

Don't worry Remainers - most Brexiteers didn't have a clue about this either :-) They tricked everyone.

English Bill of Rights 1689

Oops! I almost forgot the Bill of Rights in which it is written: “And I do declare that no foreign prince, person, prelate, state or potentate hath or ought to have any jurisdiction, power, superiority, pre-eminence or authority, ecclesiastical or spiritual, within this realm. So help me God.”

Now there’s another thought.
