A Comment (reproduced)

It has always been my firm belief that where credit is due, credit should be given. A comment received to my post entitled "Why we should be fearful", whilst angled at promoting the British Film Industry, contains so much that is true - and in the case of the person mentioned, well deserved. Therefore, to save you toddling off to my previous post, I reproduce it in full, although it is regretted the writer did not acknowledge the input of Christopher Booker (not forgetting Helen Szamuely and her blog Your Freedom and Ours) to whom the commenter's accolades should also be given.

"Dr Richard A E North is “The Godfather of Britain’s fifth estate” ie internet journalism and campaigning

The Mail On Sunday have done well to give him a page and it should become a regular column.

It is a huge shame that he has no interest in popular culture and no time to study the subject of The UK film industry and its potential to affect the battle place for ideas, but he really does not have a spare minute. He would of course do the subject better than the rest of us campaigning to get 250 000 jobs and £25 billion a year inward investment by diverting Lottery Monies wasted on London quangos to building physical sound stages in the regions.

A film or TV documentary should be made about Dr Richard North’s starting the lonely but noble campaign against deploying Snatch Landrovers in Iraq (at huge cost to British lives, limbs and family life) against literally billions being spent in bogus PR by The MoD with a hopeless BBC just printing the bogus PR for years…and having the courage, tenacity, stamina, persistence to win and be proved right. The unpardonable sin. They hate him as a result.

A TV documentary series should be made on his book “The Great Deception” which is the only detailed analysis of all EU treaties.

Moreover a documentary series should be made about his book called “Scared To Death” about the scares which have led Governments and moreover pan-Government bodies move against personal political freedoms won over centuries and move to Global Governance (which by definition has to be permanent and unelected).

His magnificent blogging on exposing the lie of global warming, the bogus science, the corruption behind it, deserves a documentary and an Oscar. Maybe they could strip Al Gore of his Oscar and give it to Dr Richard A E North.

It is absolutely true that Government Departments, quangos and Council Leaders now routinely ignore letters from MPs and even the media.

Ironically they only fear the mob and these are now only galvanised by mob leaders or celebs…which is why they really matter.

If Simon Cowell, Susan Boyle, Cheryl Cole, Wayne Rooney, Alesha Dixon, Jordon, Robbie Williams, Take That, Lady GaGa, Jonathan Ross, Catherine Zeta Jones, Lily Allen, Liz Hurley,Peaches Geldof, Mylene Klass, soap stars and celebrity chefs, sport stars, spoke out against the global warming myth, the 1.3 million windmills the Government want to build, the threat to our electricty energy supply in an age utterly dependent on computers or Snatch Landrover type campaigns then David Cameron would jump to change policy.

They no longer fear Question Time, Andrew Neil, Jeremy Paxman nor Select Committees.

They do fear celebs. Council officials and bureaucrats fear celebs who can mobilise the mob. This is also why quangos and charities and council departments spend hundreds of millions each year in paying them to hand out prizes or attend events.

Dr Richard A E North needs just one celeb to read his stuff to become a real force in the nation. He is already but his campaigns and forensic analysis get diluted by others including the Westminster bubble.

Update: Haven't a clue why, but the comment on my previous post has not appeared, neither can I find it in my email history - I do assure you though it was received!
