Grangemouth dispute makes C21 fascist MO clear

[Tony Gosling]

David Cameron accused of smearing union official 
at centre of Grangemouth crisis
31 Oct 2013 01:23 - Daily Mirror
The PM called Unite's Stephen Deans a "rogue" but 
the union's boss Len McCluskey said he was a "decent" man
http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/david-cameron-accused-smearing-union-2658987

so what's this all about then?

Pretty simple really
Ineos a front company or 'cut out' for Big Oil 
cartel (Shell Exxon BP Total etc) who now run things, everything.
Give Cameron & EU Commission & ERT their orders (they ARE the ERT!) for example
Stuffed with swastika free Nazi directors as is the MO now

If you haven't read a book for the last 10 years read this

The more specific City of London criminality now 
at the heart of the British establishment evidenced wonderfully here

Ineos behaving exactly like the Mafia - cult 
behaviour - secrecy makes lies easily & brings filthy money eh?
Thugs threatening good hard working people & extorting from taxpayers
Weak government easily bribed

Closing paragraphs of
STRANGE CONFLICT by Dennis Wheatley
First published by Hutchinson, 1941
 From Chapter XXII - THE GREAT GOD PAN
Spoken by Wheatley's protagonist Monseigneur le 
Duc de Richleau, Knight of the Most Exalted Order 
of the Golden Fleece. The Duc is addressing his 
friends Simon Aron, Marie Lou, Rex Van Ryn and 
Richard Eaton who he's just helped rescue from a 
Nazi-Voodoo priest who has been remote viewing 
Britain's vital Atlantic convoy routes:

Whether or not Hitler and Mussolini themselves 
are great masters of Black Magic, nobody can 
possibly contest that it is through such 
ambitious and unscrupulous men, German, Italian 
and Japanese, that the Powers of Darkness are 
working and in recent years have acquired such a 
terrifying increase of strength upon our earth.
"The New World Order which they wish to bring 
about is but another name for Hell. If through 
them Evil prevailed, every man and woman of every 
race and colour would finally be enslaved, from 
the cradle to the grave. They would be brought up 
to worship might instead of right and would be 
taught to condone, or even praise, murder, 
torture and the suppression of all liberty as 
'necessary' to the welfare of 'the State'.
"Incontestable proof of that has already been 
given us by the way in which the young 
Nazi-educated Germans have behaved in Poland, 
Czechoslovakia, Norway, Holland, Belgium and 
France. They butchered old men, women and 
children who did not even seek to oppose them. 
That was part of the Plan, and they obeyed the 
order to commit these murders in cold blood 
without a single recorded instance of any protest 
against them by officers or men. Seven years of 
the Totalitarian poison has been enough for the 
Evil to grip five million German youths and with 
it their hearts have gone cold and stony.
   If they triumph, within seventy years such 
words as justice, toleration, freedom and 
compassion will have ceased to have a place in 
the vocabularies of the races of mankind.
"In the New World Order all family life will be 
at an end, except for the conquerors, and only 
the worst elements, spiritually, will be allowed 
to procreate fresh generations to populate a 
world divided into masters and slaves. The right 
to homes and children of their own would be 
reserved to the Overlords; the rest would be 
herded into barracks and reduced to the level of 
robots without the right to read or speak or even 
think for themselves. There could be no revolt, 
because every officer, priest, deputy, editor, 
magistrate, writer and other leader of free 
thought and action in the conquered countries 
would already have been executed by the 
firing-squads; and leaderless herds cannot 
prevail against tanks, tear-gas, bombs and machine-guns.
"And unless men are free how can they progress 
upon the great spiritual journey which all must make?
"This war is not for territory or gain or glory, 
but that Armageddon which was prophesied of old. 
That is why all the Children of Light. wherever 
they may be, captive or free, must hold on to 
their spiritual integrity as never before and 
must stick at nothing, physically, in the fight, 
lest the whole world fall under the domination of 
these puppets who are animated by the Powers of Darkness."
As he ceased speaking they knew that although it 
would be many days before their burns, weals and 
wounds were healed there had come into their 
hearts a little glow of warmth. The Battle was 
still far from being over, but they had done the 
thing which they had set out to do. Their Victory 
was an episode?no more-in the Titanic struggle 
that was in progress, but the flame which 
animated their spirits was burning an the 
brighter for it, and they were returning to fight 
on for the England that they loved.
It seemed that the Duke guessed their thoughts, 
for he spoke again. "As long as Britain stands 
the Powers of Darkness cannot prevail. On Earth 
the Anglo-Saxon race is the last Guardian of the 
Light, and I have an unshakable conviction that, 
come what may, our island will prove the Bulwark of the World."
