The General Election and Hollie Greig.

Monday, May 3rd, 2010

With the outing of that bad piece of work, Greg Lance-Watkins, who ran two blogs called StolenKids-Hollie and Justice4Hollie.com and claimed to be the official voice of Anne and Hollie Greig and Robert Green, the Hollie Greig campaign can hopefully now get back on track.

I saw Mr. Watkins on video for the first time yesterday and within seconds I could see what kind of verbose, self-seeking, self-publicising individual he is.  For all his verbiage he cannot spell and therefore his intelligence and his emphasis loses its punch.  If Mr. Watkins had any element of credibility,  he would have discussed his fears privately with the family and, if not happy,  quietly withdraw.   We are dealing here with something a damn sight more important than wounded egos.  However it does strike me that Watkins is an Establishment plant and is therefore embedded with the primary aim of obfuscation.  The best possible action is to disassociate publicly and then ignore his future rantings.

Besides the above,  it seems there are blacker and bigger hands than I care to think of now at work behind the scenes in the Establishment Club trying to settle their rocking boat before the General Election on Thursday,  especially against the heart of the Scotland Against Crooked Lawyers (SACL)  campaign in South Aberdeen.  However the local party workers are now convinced they are getting their message out and that they are going to do remarkably well in the vote.

Recently the SACL website was shut down by the Scottish Courts Service and last week the voice of 25,000 members of their FaceBook page were denied a voice when the page disappeared.  On top of this, Robert Green, the parliamentary candidate for SACL,  was forced to travel up to Stonehaven Sheriff Court to be told in camera and without representation,  that his bail conditions imposed after his arrest in February,  remained the same.   Why go to these lengths, unless these black sinister hands are shaking and they are acting without thinking, because to the neutral mind all these kind of unexplained and outlandish occurences make the Hollie case stronger.  The establishment is ruining itself with trepidation brought about by the sincerity of its opponents.

To get everything into perspective let us just examine Robert Green.   He was quietly handing out leaflets one day last February when he was arrested for what eventually turned out to be a breach of the peace.   The next court day he was bailed to appear at the Sheriff Court on a day to be decided, on condition that he did not speak out publicly about the Hollie Greig affair, that he did not come into Scotland and that he reported three times a week to Warrington police station.  In the following weeks he was arrested again in Warrington and delivered up to Aberdeen and then the following day let out on to the streets of the town to make his own way home.   And then there was last Friday’s debacle.   It is all very wild west if you ask me.   The next step for a parliamentary candidate is to have his testicles cut off,  so that the electorate cannot understand his new falsetto tones.  The last time I remember an occurance of this nature was when Bobby Sands won the Fermanagh & South Tyrone by-election in 1981 while still on hunger strike in the Maze prison.  After 66 days of this martyrdom in prison, he died.   Let us hope no such tragedy happens here.

On Sunday (yesterday) there was a demonstration for Hollie in Parliament Square,  one of the many on this day for various causes.  A woman wrote in chalk on the pavement “A child is a child, precious”.  This provoked an emergency response from Scotland Yard. Meanwhile an anti-capitalist demonstration was under way with naked men climbing in the trees.  No police response at all.

With all things Hollie do you not think that the Establishment’s defence is both exaggerated and unlawful and that at long last we might see the end of this particular cabal?
