Britain In or Out of the Euro Referendum

So this June the UK gets to vote on an EU in or out referendum.

What surprises me most is the apparent ignorance of the UK population on what being out of Europe means, and the lies peddled by the media and the politicians on the various benefits and problems.

Most of the rhetoric is focused solely on Social Welfare and Social Benefits as well as Immigration. Out local MP, Gareth Johnson (a conservative and no relation to Boris Johnson) is clearly voting to get out.

MH17 Malayasia Flight Goes Down in Ukraine

Accident.
Innocent bystander.
Deliberate.
False Flag.

All of the above may be true or there may be other options to consider. Either way, someone or some group is responsible.

This has to be the clearest example of recent years on why independent news is vital.

My wife is Russian and regularly watches Russian news, but (as far as I am aware) Putin controls a lot of the news media outlets and therefore is taking Russia's innocent stance in this issue of blame.

I on the otherhand get my news sources from various outlets before making my own decisions. I like to think my opinions are not biased but collected and formed from various sources before taking a stance on the truth.

10 Weeks to Go Before Facebook is Gone from my Life

More of a mental reminder than anything else, but today marks the 10 week countdown to when I close my Facebook account for good.

Ive saved all the photo graphs and posts I want. Shortly I will be sending a post which requests people contact mobile and email addresses so those who I want to stay in touch with, and who want to stay in touch with me can.

Who the What Are How?

Phones 4U used to send me emails on a weekly basis advertising their new phone deals. Which has to be mostly a pointless endeavour as they only every come once I have already renewed my contract...

They recently sent me this as part of their O2 promotion, which is sad as Im with Orange/EE.
Doubly sad is the fact that I have no idea who these two men are as neither of them is mentioned in any of their promotional literature...

Congratulations are in order for England who've lost two of their opening two games but can still qualify!

Shower Thoughts from Reddit

I make no apologies for stealing this from Reddit.

Scooby-Doo taught us that the real monsters always turn out to be humans.

And I'm looking at you religion for creating imaginary demons to frightened of, when its the priests and vicars we need fear the most.

Twitter Begging Me to Follow Anyone

I've continued to shave friends, likes and follows on Facebook and have now done the same with Twitter. When I logged in this morning, I was met with a list of half a dozen people I should follow. I cant remove this list until I increase my Twitter follows. It would appear that Twitter needs a minimum number of people for you to follow for it to feel safe you will spread the word.

As I mentioned previously, I only follow 3 friends and my local community Twitter feed which reposts local messages of humour and importance.
