This is our weekend piece on the Bombardment page, however because of the quality of investigation and honest journalism, and the fact that in the first ten minutes alone you can see just how much is being held back from people in general. The legacy news media and politicians, from left to right lie about the climate, weather, and the need to control you, as they continue to strip away your freedoms.

SO THESE VIDEOS SUDDENLY BECAME PRIVATE. HOW VERY TYPICAL OF SOME WET BRAINED ANORAKS TO DO THIS. This is not a coincidence, There is collusion from the Mervyn haters, even though this is not his website, to keep on trying to undermine this place. Those oh so lovers of freedom who censor as much as the new Government seems hell bent on doing, expose themselves simply as bitter old men. So no more publicity for the provider of these videos (as you can see everything has been deleted). I have left the post in place because of the comments that have been left. Unlike the sad losers who caused this, for that is what these petty minded people are, we will continue to provide great features. We have contacted the moderators at YouTube and are also in contact with Boardhost regarding possible copyright infringement. If you want to play dirty, then so be it. The Dutch had a special word for anoraks, they were clearly ahead of the curve! ![]() The vast majority of people who listened to the close down of Radio London and the other offshore stations on August 14th 1967 have not only moved on, they have forgotten all about it. Even Keith Skues didn't know what Johnny Walker was talking about at first during their brief phone conversation over the past weekend, when Walker mentioned a special date coming up on Wednesday. Looking at the Anorak forums today with only a handful of people mentioning the 57th anniversary of the MOA act that shut down the offshore stations, it raises a sensible question, Is it not time to just move on and leave that day and date behind? If the goal back then was for commercial radio in the UK then we have had that since 1973 and in more recent times, alternatives such as internet and community radio stations have not only developed they have exponentially expanded and flourished . In fact with the internet we have seen an explosion of independent radio stations from one man in his bedroom through to some highly up-skilled professional online services. Apart from a few hundred anoraks nobody cares anymore, there have been so many bigger injustices since the MOA and the governments of today are becoming far more radical control freaks, where individual choice is of no importance, whilst the indoctrination of children through the school system is the stuff of George Orwell's 1984. Whilst you live in the past hanging on to memories of the golden age of offshore radio, what do you achieve? With hate speech laws now being used to silence dissenting opinions and the rise of religious and cultural division in the UK, freedom is far more at risk than it was in 1967. Perhaps we should focus on 1984 as the 'virtual date' we all should mourn, because it has (to quote from an old Caroline sweatshirt) arrived a little late, but arrived it has. Some who come here are by the comments they leave, simply no longer able to think for themselves. So hopefully this excellent and very honest interview will help. For those who do think about current events and want really sensible opinions I cannot recommend watching this episode of Triggernometry enough! Personally I do not agree with violence, intimidation or generalization. I hate bullies, racists, cowards and their ilk. To label those you disagree with, or cannot present a reasonable reply to, as far right/left or hate criminals does not wash with me. We are living in very different times, where the super rich and UN-elected bodies seem to have all the power and the puppet governments of so many countries simply do the bidding of their master(s). In part that is why I love history and those who research and look for the real facts. Does it matter that my once held viewpoint has turned out to be mislead or simply wrong? Surely the real truth is worth everything compared with being mislead and simply not getting the point. With current events in Great Britain, the video below is quite poignant at demonstrating just how valuable history is, in understanding current events. I leave you to decide how you feel, I need to do more research personally to form a rounded opinion, still its good to listen to an informed researcher. Going forward and thanks to some new contributors, we (yes we) are planning a few light hear-ted yet damn accurate pieces including 'the beginners guide to BBC news bias' and a new 'Ladybird Books of Anoraks' publication. The above video is a little long, so give it 15 minutes if time is tight. If it disappears, then understand the bombers were over their target!! Some additional context to the situation we are experiencing in the UK is cleverly laid out by Katie (obvious bad girl) Hopkins below. If the current (pretend) version of Radio Caroline had some balls they might have joined in the defense of their genuine old age supporters and fight the stripping of the winter fuel assistance! But no, they cannot do so, because they have completely sold out to OFCOM. Remember 'Caroline Can Be Anywhere' especially on an over sized sweatshirt on an over priced 'money raiser'. Do any of you remember the freedom fighting days of free radio? Either they existed or it was and remains one huge con! {To Be Continued}...... The first offshore radio stations (in as much as they were certainly off the British coast line) get very little attention from anoraks even though Ronan O'Rahilly told a rather large whopper about one of them in relation to Georgie Fame. Yet these were the original pioneers of free radio for the UK, trying to bust the BBC's monopoly and loved by their listeners. Ironically a number of sixties offshore DJ's ended up on Luxy some because they could not get a gig on Radio One or in some cases didn't want to sell out to them. It say's much about UK radio that even in the late 1980's Radio Luxembourg felt that there was still a market for high powered radio broadcasting into the UK as they and RTE set up Atlantic 252 (in part based on how good Laser 558 had been). So here are a few reminders of the 'other type' of British offshore radio along with the occasional fade in and out, when the real pioneers of UK commercial radio did their stuff. I wonder just what climate alarm-ism we can look forward to now it appears that summer has arrived. Don't forget that 97% of scientists agree with whoever is funding them, so expect lot's of expert opinions from that side of the story, whilst the other side will remain largely gagged for fear of being accused of the horrific crime of saying "actually there is conflicting evidence". So let's spray Stonehenge orange, or smugly stand out side the Supreme Court having slowed down Oil and Gas development, whilst China and India continue to massively develop theirs, don't forget it's your fault that the Earth has climate change (like it has done for thousands of years). Whatever you do, don't mention the Sun and solar activity as anything to do with the cause, because you cant tax that! And please, please, please, no mention of the Medieval Warm period that has been scientifically established (no matter how much the media and very well paid climate activists will lie to your face and deny it lasted for years). Finally in this short but happy rant we can expect the weather forecast maps to glow with even darker shades of orange and red in the next few months, whilst the news and weather actors adopt grim faces, and talk in hushed undertones about all of this being your fault again and about Al Gores sea level rises meaning London is now under water, no hang on a minute they don't seem to talk about that disaster, but it must have happened because 97% of scientists said it would by the second decade of this century..... What if everything you thought you knew was awash with distortions, semi-truths, or full on lies? Your perception of your own memories are surely reality as far as you can see or remember. Did Ronan O'Rahilly take time out in 1962 to see Mrs J Kennedy in London? Her young daughter had captured his imagination playing in the White House, so much so, that he planned to name a radio station after her. Is that true or is that false? Do you know the timeline? How can you find out? Was Radio Caroline named after the very young Caroline Kennedy? The ghosts in the machine have been playing with your perception for a very long time. Did you buy into any of the wars since you were born? Did you see them as just, necessary, or vital for the defense of freedom loving people? Perception is reality after all isn't it? Or have you joined the 'Woke' generation where feelings are more important than facts? Well if you just don't care, or think so what! that's is after all your own business. On the other hand, it's not to late to wake up and realize that perception is not actually reality. |
