We need more than this.We FIRST need to take on the Media and create a TRULY Democratic Media,
One which is not so biased toward the interests of the rich owners and the Tories,one where journalists are not scared to not say what their rich Masters want
and where they are not allowed, hopefully,is made illegal to delete information about the Tories.
Why do so few see this,and why are evens less prepared to stand up to the Media ?
Unless we do that,then we will NEVER have any real success with the other Campaigns,
as we need to NOT always have Tory like Govts in the House and need to change the make up of MP s in the house
to get enough on our side and who are prepared to stand up and show so to get the changes in legislation needed
to acheive what we are looking for from the other Campaigns.

in my little life , the things that have affected my life worst are corrupt labour councils, wasteful spending, endless council and local government cover ups, endless stealth taxes on the workers, major drug taking, the highest drug related crime in the western world and rewarding millions of lazy workless people who breed for benefits. those same people have more spending power and are seen on the streets far more, drinking drug taking and drug pushing....also useless civil servants and toothless social services and of course useless cops who are too cowardly to target these violent drug pushing thugs. Ive run many businesses and all are strangled by endless European laws rules regulations costs etc etc all of which attack and rob the working man at the bottom and all of which embolden the mega rich corporations and also allow local governments to steal our money....in the 1980s the liberal left marched against Maggie thatchers £70 A YEAR POLL TAX....NOW ITS CALLED COUNCIL TAX AND NEW LABOUR PUT IT UP TO £1500/2000 YET NO ONE MARCHED? CRAZY DOUBLE STANDARDS and an nhs which covers everything up with a massive middle management that wastes money galore and takes crucial money away from life saving treatments. This is the cycle of events.
brand and charlotte church and new labour cover NONE of this, they do NOT represent working class people because they aren't working class and never have been....she was a multi millionaire at 10...he is a rich boy always was , who thinks he understands the working classes because he was a cocaine addict...absurd

You are right, we are not.
From the Bank of England, the CBI and other economists now there is already a small downgrading of expected growth over the next few years at least in the UK.
I expect early next year a change again of targets to come from George Osborne as to his estimated expected growth figures too.
When the austerity cuts were implemented after the last election, the recovery and growth disappeared.
Now he is off again, doing the same thing, implementing severe austerity cuts quickly after the election.
So really all powers that be help the weakest in society.

the levels of tax should rise by increments all th way up to the people on millions per year
get the feckless non disabled breeding for benefits people off welfare....make working tax credits far easier to follow and claim to encourage and properly people willing to work to get off benefits. use these savings to increase payment to the real sick disabled and elderly...also fine businesses who do not have disabled access
furthermore , a nationwide plan to deal with endless corrupt councils...rules that all councils cap business rates in town centres which have completely collapsed. nationwide policy to reduce or abolish car parking charges in town centres , now used to rape the locals to pay the councils massive chief executive wages (theyre on 3 times as much as mps? insane)
VAT. THE ENSLAVE MENT TAX LABOUR MUST FIGHT TO REDUCE AND ABOLISH THIS...THIS STEALS ALL THE SPENDING POWER OF WORKING CLASSES , IT IMPOVERISHES THEM AND PREVENTS ALL SMALL BUSIENSSES FROM GROWING AND CHALLENGING THE HUGE BUSINESSES AND CORPORATIONS

Russell Brand Abused By Crowd
At Anti-Austerity March In London
[Footage has emerged of Russell Brand being subjected
to a tirade of abuse at an anti-austerity march at which
he was one of the star speakers.
Waiting in a backstage area after his speech, sections of
the crowd were heard to scream in his direction.
One woman shouts: "**** him. He should not be on the
stage here. Ask him how much they ****ing paid him."]

Selling sweatshirts he's paid a couple of quid for, for £60+ and then magnanimously announcing he's going to give a tiny amount of the profit to "charity" would suggest to me he should be addressing the capitalists rather than the anti-austerity camp. Once he's taken off production costs, shipping, printing, distribution etc. he's still got to be making £30 (I'm being generous, it's probably nearer £40) per sweatshirt. And yet here he is again playing at "man of the people".

Brand is former drug addict who supports drugs for everyone, a serial cheat, an addictive personality made famous by mocking the fact hed slept with Andrew sachs grand daughter and ringing mr sachs up live on radio to mock him?
he appears to be making money now off slave labour for swatshirts....he was an awful tv host who never listened and talked over everyone....now hes doing similar in politics. he admits he wants to destroy the establishment. so where will that lead us mr brand? he speaks of cops like he really knows much about how they operate? cops are strangled by the endless legislation of the new labour party he now supports, 3000 new labour laws....endless erosion of civil liberties and more powers to the police to snoop and inspect etc all down to new labour..the extra security and civil liberties erosion was down to terrorism which exploded 1000 times worse again thanks to his party new labour. hes obsessed with corporations but his party did nothing for small businesses to compete with the corporates, so he is very selectively ignoring the other parts of the story that don't suit his narrative. that's why he talks so fast so as not to catch out his hypocrisy
this is not even the part that bothers me, he likes to label anyone who disagrees as a bigot. he is also at the wrong end of every argument and fails completely to ofer a real productive counter idea? yet he fancies himself as a radical and yet he hasn't even got the backbone to offer an ideas suggestions alternative plans..he accuses the tories here of trying to DESTROY THE FABRIC OF SOCIETY? WITH 2 MILLION NEW JOBS AND INCREASED FUNDING FOR THE NHS? ID SUGGEST OIF WE FOLLOWED BRAND HE WOULD DESTROY THE FABRICS OF SOCIETY?
how are you going to create millions o jobs mr brand? to pay for the hospitals and the open borders and the millions of refugees he would let in and the thousands of drug related crime (our drug related crime figures are the worst in Europe) what to do about the bankruptcy of umpteen European nations, the vast unemployment rates across Europe (except UK)
hes not even original. Michael moor and john pilger have done this work infinitely better before him...they expose corporate corruption smartly and it DOES need a man to carry on their work. brand it seems isn't that man. he is too spineless to offer hiw own solutions he just mocks and sneers from the sidelines, creates mayhem and runs back to his mansion claiming hes just a comic? pathetic and dangerous
..his plans for drugs for all, open borders are the ideas of a spoilt child written on the back of a matchstick box....a very very dangerous spineless charlatan who will use his position to influence millions of impressionable teenagers...thankfully some adults will be less gullible

brand hasn't got one either and neither did church....who would they cut where would they save?
personally id cut from large families breeding for benefits. I think dave is wrong to target working tax credits IF indeed he is. Cameron says he wants to get the poorer out of tax yet raises vat which hurts the poor more than anything. labour MUST attack VAT. brand has the whole swagger o a man who wants attention but will soon bore off. as for policy get out of Europe but remain only as a trading partner.

People should be allowed to take whatever drug they want. We don't need a Nanny government. His personal life is his personal life. His cheating is not my business.
Other than that, I find him repugnant.

I disagree. drug related crime is higher in uk than almost every other country in the western world. it creates violence, massive social problems, theft to feed the addiction, car crashes, destroys lives, families, healthand even murders....its not just a case of putting heroin in your system, its the fact society and the vast silent majority have to pay the price , whether or the drugs, the crimes, the victims of the theft and violence, the broken families, the terrorised neighbourhoods, etc etc
drug laws need to be tightened ....we can then help only those who deserve help, appreciate help, and want to get off this filth...it also costs the nhs and society tens of billions

I would like it if refugees and asylum seekers live in his posh street, and he can preach about it, and brand can talk to lorry drivers who have been fined by are country, and they have even been, attacked and beaten up by refugees, also lorry drivers have been stab by refugees, for refusing to let them on there vehicle, my brother is a lorry driver and he turned down an offer to drive through europe, because it is too much of a risk, the man is a sleazebag, and what sex pistols john rotten said about him, was pretty right, the word bumhole, pretty much sums him up, what I found funny was him running to his rich champagne socialist car,
