I talk to local Ukip officials regularly, and make no secret of the fact. They've asked for help, and I've given freely when I've had time, and yes, it has included web site advertising. My smartphone has dozens of recent Ukip emails. Just this morning I got two personal emails from Nige to go to Thurrock and have a beer with him (and I'm almost sure he didn't send this to anyone else )! Seriously, I will dispassionately talk to any local politicos who have the basic enterprise to contact me - and even spend time helping them prepare their artwork, but I can't write the actual copy for them. If anyone is "empty chaired" here it will be entirely their choice, and not for want of my willing participation. I don't hold out much hope of a productive dialogue with the old parties, because experience says they won't engage in any public dialogue in other than strictly controlled circumstances. But, maybe social media is breaking down their phobias - I simply don't know! I'd like you to consider the fact that this site may actually be less politically biased than any of the MSM. The moderators have an entirely free hand but are advised to moderate with the lightest of touches - really just to keep things civilised and with legal limits. In distant past my own posts have been moderated, but I've learned to behave.

We've been promoting the FREE advertising to local organisations for ages. The method of getting your ad. up is fully documented. Politically the facility is neutral, and open to any party, and any candidate in any election. We've run political ads before - this is nothing new. Basically, what you are saying is that because party a, b and c don't have the enterprise to take advantage then party d should be barred. I think Mr Cameron would like your thinking. For the avoidance of doubt we are still waiting for submissions for the GE. All ads will get equal prominence in the queue. If there is any doubt about this then I'm happy to post the raw figures at intervals.

Interesting that Texans appear to have patented the gasification of coal in-place in the mid 1960's. http://www.google.com/patents/US3298434 Sad if we have to pay royalties for something our NE mining engineers would probably have come up with earlier. Was nationalisation responsible for the lack of innovation here Adam? Anyway, it's surely not fracking, and those who say it is are surely climbing of the a mindless anti-frack bandwagon. It's up to the proponents to make a reasoned case for it though; always assuming HMG regards us as intelligent enough to have some input.

http://www.v3.co.uk/v3-uk/news/2394096/first-ubuntu-phone-on-sale-next-week-as-aquaris-e45-ubuntu-edition Yes, we all know Android is Linux (and IOS a pale copy Linux), but this is the real deal. Available next week in a "flash sale". Stay tuned, we'll try to buy one for review!

Err. no, it doesn't! I'd like to hear what a selection of experts say before signing that. One thing's for sure: if it means an economic boost then any government is going to approve it with suitable safeguards. The most pragmatic thing is to exact the highest possible price for the local economy, else we'll get the downside without any upside.

Hang on and I will find some "Hovis Ad" music to accompany that post Tony. You've got the right guy to lead your spin department. Alexrod has been caught out lying in the US, so he comes over here to lie for the Labour. Any idea how much union money he's trousering for this? Professional liars like that don't come on the cheap! Fact: Tory/Ukip coalition won't happen. There are now too many left wing people like yourself in Ukip for that to ever be on the cards. It's a democratic party controlled by its members, and they won't buy any of your LibLabCon international corporate capital BS. A confidence and supply agreement to ensure stable government will likely have too high a price for cast-iron-promise Dave. But if Dave has his back nailed to the wall, well.. you never know - we''ll take his trousers as well though! One thing is for sure Salmond/Sturgeon won't be bleeding the rest of the UK dry if Ukip has any say in it at all. Anyway, do the right thing by your members and our country and sign the petition. If you feel you can't support it then your reasoning would be instructive.

http://www.voiceforengland.com/ After decades of Tory/Labour dithering Dave is trying to stitch this one up before the GE to disadvantage Labour in case of a dreadful-for-England Labour/SNP coalition. But, actually, he has only Tory interest in mind, and not that of England, as he pretends. This is vividly illustrated by the shameful LibLabCon pact to buy off Scottish voters in the referendum with English tax payer money. He's only interested in point one here, whereas all English voters should be demanding full fairness as represented by points two, three, and four. Please sign the petition. What exactly is EVEL?

All good old traditional British names then? Ah, no, that one's another thrilling chapter in the Labour Party's - you're a wacist bigot - side of the scandal. The good old British names are being kept well out of the public eye until after the GE. Don't want to give those UKIP scruffs any more ammunition in their scurrilous campaign for democratic accountability, do we children? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dolphin_Square

I caught part of it the other day. Must say i wasn't paying too much attention until the "Tynemouth" word aired.

This illustrates the well documented political tactic of fragmentation in order to subjugate - embraced by our EU overlords. Knocking the shire off Bedlington should have alerted keener minds, but the salami-slicing politicos had their excuses lined up, and they sounded so so plausible at the time. Efficiency - reorganisation - unity - more "influence" - a better future... Remember this when the EU debate gets under-way: it's not what they say that matters, it's what they really intend! What they really intend is already out there if you care to look. It's an expansionist European superstate with its own super-scale military which will be well laced with Teutonic DNA. Look no further than the Ukraine to see a tiny taste of the future. The EU is one of those mass delusions of history, and the politicos who allow our country to dig ourselves in deeper (and be bribed with our own money) the fools of history. Anyone of an age knows our involvement was founded on a blatant and deliberate lie, but the salami-slicing politicos are allowed to continue by younger generations who haven't had the breadth of experience. Let's lower the voting age again - that's only fair! Oh, and "if there is any proposal in the next parliament for a transfer of powers to Brussels we will have an in/out referendum". Notice the "in the next parliament" weasel words? Those powers were transferred on 1st November and the salami-slicing politicos kept their mouths firmly shut on the matter! So.. what has the EU got to do with our Bedington's present predicament you say? Well, it just a different aspect of exactly the same thing, and fool if you think it's over - it's only just begun! Wise up and use your democratic right to say no-more - whilst you still have it!

I think you can still detect something Russian, nuclear, and that wasn't armed in the Lake District. If I remember correctly this one was notable because it turned right and flew the channel too - thus unsettling the great and the good.

Not talking about revolution Maggie, I'm talking about the people taking back power by proper democratic process. Of course you could always write a rude word on the ballot paper instead! And, I'm not talking about government influence; that's always been reasonably taken care of, so it's possible to see the BBC being leaned on from that aspect. What I'm talking about is a much more insidious control by London centric liberal elitists. People who are bent on limiting the range of debate in order to give the illusion of representing the range of opinion. You can see this at work daily in the way public contributions on the BBC website are moderated. When the debate goes into realms that they find awkward - starts to reflect real public consensus - it is shut down entirely. This has little to do with party affiliations - it's control by a self-serving over-class who've never had a real job in their lives, and believe themselves morally superior to huge chunks of the population. This is the real reason for the disillusion with the political process, and why ever fewer people vote LibLabCon. People aren't as stupid as this over-class takes them for! Most can't put their finger on the reasons for this disillusion, but they do know there is smoke and mirrors at work. When they say "they are all the same", they need to think a little more deeply as to why this is. This isn't a conspiracy I've dreamed up, it's a pretty universal thought across the political spectrum. Take your pick of who's perspective you want to look at it from, but the basic conclusion is universal. https://www.google.com/?q=uk+political+overclass

I didn't expect you to agree with any, so I'm gratified. The BBC has a special role as the state broadcaster. You can't opt out of funding them. There has always been special trust placed in them. But, I'm one of an increasing number of people who believe that they are betraying that trust and pursing the agenda of an over class. My argument is not for abolishing them, but putting broadcasting on a level playing field. How do you feel about the license fee? There are going to have to be some changes, but - like most things - decisions have been kicked down the road (until 2017). Interesting that you mention the Cuban Missile crisis at this time. Are you aware that you likely came within 50 miles of a Russian nuclear warhead the other day? Far closer than at any time in the cold war! And... the Greens and SNP demand abolishing our nuclear deterrent, which kept us safe through the last century! The Greens also want us to "end our special relationship with the USA". Doh! Animal Farm? Oh, I think the Pigs have been running the farm for a very long time now. Time for the people's turn again!

Say as you find Maggie! Hardly abuse, or personal. He's actually a Cultural Marxist; so OK, I take fool back - he's no fool, he simply takes others as fools! He's fully entitled to his opinions, but he takes my money, and represents a distorted view of the world to my kids, and the rest of the nation, as the norm. He can have all the young male consenting "totty" he wants, but he's not entitled to represent it as either normal behaviour, or tell me I must approve of it! In fact originally I rather liked him, but he's changed, and not me. It's not simply his flaunting his sexuality as some sort of superior state of being, it's his other elitist attitudes. We've come along way from sticking Oscar Wilde in Reading Jail, and all of that is undeniably for the better. But, in an increasing number of cases these days the tolerance now shown is not reciprocated, instead it is capitalised upon. He comes across very snide and condescending, and I wouldn't accept that in a heterosexual, so I'm not making excuses for him because he's a homosexual - which apparently is what I'm required to do by the BBC thought police. Unlike the BBC I think that any form of discrimination is wrong, so I simply don't accept their doctrine of positive discrimination. This is just one of many reasons why the formerly balanced BBC is past its sell-by-date. It always had element of elitism, but it was a benign and inclusive elitism that aimed to enlighten and promote a national purpose. It was pretty much apolitical, and on the rare occasions it strayed over the line sharp corrections were administered and all were happy. These days all pretence of that has gone. The audiences don't appreciate the morph because it has been gradually introduced in the name of progress. It's not progress - it's bloody frightening, and wide open to exploitation by a future totalitarian government. Paranoia? I think not! One thing Nick Clegg is right about is to be very very worried about what is presently being enacted in the name of national security. If the same subversion of tradition values is applied to national government as has already been enacted at the BBC, Winston Smith will be reciting 2 + 2 = 5 and believing it before the BBC hits its centenary.

Not even going to waste minutes of my life going there Malc! He's an immediate turn-off when he shows up on TV. An out-of-touch elitist fool is the very best that can be said about him. That, of course, explains why he's so jolly popular with our moral guardians at The Ministry of Truth - the Beeb! Yet another notch in the long campaign to scrap the licence fee. Hit the b**(^%s where it hurts - no, not there - in the pocket!

If only it were that simple! People class an email addy as theirs; they don't factor in that it can be trashed at someone else's whim. Most people don't even keep a record of who they give it to, so any change results in massive inconvenience, and lost contact with service providers and friends. There's legislation that phone numbers must be readily portable, but it hasn't occurred to regulators (yet) that it should be extended to ISP provided email. Failing this there should be a very clear health warning, with the alternatives clearly spelled out right at point of sale. A simple redirection protocol is already an integral part of email, so there can be absolutely no BS'ing in this respect. My point is that what Virgin is doing is wholly unnecessary, as the cost to do the right thing by customers or ex-customers is minimal. Virgin is short-sighted, and it will backfire on the brand name - that's for sure!

Yes, but upsetting 100,000 people to save a couple of hundred pounds a month in ongoing running costs for basic email/redirects, is a very short sighted view of profitability. He didn't even need to do that, he could have stipulated that TalkTalk alias the email for a few years, and that would cost nothing If you asked Branson what his brand is worth he'd answer billions, yet he's quite prepared to sully it on the assumption that customers are total idiots! At least with Mick O'Leary (Ryanair) he had the basic decency to tell the truth about how he viewed his customers, without the comes extreme responsibility BS.

Working here now. We'll have to stop buying this cheap Asian rubbish!

You're better off back in the more sheltered NE Malc. Those chilly East Anglian fens aren't the place to be this time of year, and at our time of life! I wonder if the University of East Anglia CRU winter heating bills are available on FOI request? Likely they'd show up heavily redacted anyway! http://www.fenlandcitizen.co.uk/news/more-snow-on-the-way-after-storms-1-6517157

"Potentially Historic Blizzard", hmm... The old ones are always the best: http://www.independent.co.uk/environment/snowfalls-are-now-just-a-thing-of-the-past-724017.html

I hesitated to use the rape word to create a pun here, but once again this shows the folly of using an ISP provided domain as your primary email address. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/personalfinance/household-bills/11377380/Virgin-broadband-customers-told-were-moving-you-to-TalkTalk-and-youll-lose-your-email.html So... Branson has finally worked out that there isn't big money in providing Internet infrastructure, and he's cutting his customers lose? The excuse given for trashing their email doesn't stand up to examination though. What utter tosh! When Cable and Wireless decided to get out of retail Internet they had the decency to leave an old server running and maintained for more than a decade to do the right thing by their customers. Only when there was next to no traffic did they pull the plug. The cost of this would be a drop in the ocean to an organisation like Virgin. What they are actually saying is we think you are fools and there will be no impact at all on the credibility of the Virgin brand name. Well I think a tiny boycott on Virgin products could easily force a rapid change of mind. In any event if you are still with Virgin you shouldn't even consider allowing them to profit further by being paid by Talk Talk for your custom. There are plenty of better providers out there! And finally: Reads well, but do you really mean any of it - apart from the last one of course?

Whitley Bay and proposed Amble store get chop too! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/retailandconsumer/11333964/Tesco-closures-is-your-local-store-getting-the-chop.html Is this the Tesco No Added Stores Double Concentrate on Profits Juice? Anyway, it stinks too!

I HAVE joined the Labour Party - it's just that all the Labour leadership left a long while ago, and it has since been renamed UKIP! Else, how do you explain the present love affair with international capitalism, the EU, and distinctly non-British values? The only non-revisionist thing new age Labour advocate is retaining our national defence, but a coalition with the SNP, or God forbid Communism with Plants, is going to cover that one for them!

The essential problem is when and how are men supposed to know what is chosen? Women are never duplicitous; women never reconsider things; women never have regrets; women have perfect memories of past events; women always know their own mind. These are statements of fact - in a feminazi world! The only fact I'm sure of is that there are a lot of highly confused young males out there who are constantly being fed mixed messages, and have no voice. A clear case for legislation demanding plain packaging I think. OMG that's the burka - but we are going there already, so that's OK!
