It said: For every 1,000 cameras in London, less than one crime is solved per year. Telegraph
"We have estimated that CCTV cameras have cost the taxpayer in the region of £200million in the last 10 years but it's not entirely clear if some of that money would not have been better spent on police officers. - Evening Standard
Massive investment in CCTV cameras to prevent crime in the UK has failed to have a significant impact, despite billions of pounds spent on the new technology, a senior police officer piloting a new database has warned. Only 3% of street robberies in London were solved using CCTV images, despite the fact that Britain has more security cameras than any other country in Europe. - Guardian
After the so called "London Riots" thousands of extra police were put on the streets and crime fell dramatically!
I have been a professional driver in London for 20 years and the first 17 were fine free, the last three numerous fines!

I like this idea - yesterday I was thinking 'Oh yeah when I get back in I'll read about this, about that...' and haven't. {Ed001's Note - any interesting links we will try and post onto a separate page now. When I get the chance I will go through the site and move them all onto that page.}

I live in central London, I'm being watched every time I set foot outside the door, and if I dare to park my cab at 4 in the morning to get some milk I get a ticket. They told CCTV was to help with crime prevention instead it criminalises the common man.
Not sure if that's what your on about but I thought I'd get it off my chest.
Think this site is above me somewhat, but it makes a good read.
dmedly {Ed001's Note - that is pretty much exactly what I meant. It would be cheaper to put bobbies on the beat than cameras, but it clearly isn't about crime prevention/detection. If it was then more police on the streets would work better. It is about raising more money through fines. Just another tax for us all.}

9/11 is a little sus to say the least, no evidence of plane parts in field or at pentagon! Witnesses say the planes going into the towers were not passenger planes! The firemen claiming they saw/heard blasts as the towers collapsed, towers that shouldn't have collapsed!
And when they had the opportunity to capture Bin Ladan they killed him!
I find it remarkable that the man they blamed for killing over 3000 americans was not brought back to america/guantanamo bay! Buried at sea my arse
DazzaBhoy {Ed033's Note - Spot on DazzaBhoy. Also, if you take a look at Loose Change, 911 In Plane site, 911 Ripple Effect films or other films that discuss the Pentagon attack, you see a hole in the Pentagon that is too small for a plane and penetrates too deep to be a plane. However a Granit missile looks to fit the size of the hole and the depth of penetration.}

Capitalism working well is about the most evil form of society imaginable. Ill take imperfect Marxism any day. Plus in order to build a Socialist society you have to destroy every vested interest not easy thing to do.

O i always read newspapers from the back to the front, i know the truth is in the sports section, if it says the score was 2-1 then i know that was true. Lol. All the lies are at the front. {Ed001's Note - I never read a newspaper, I wouldn't even trust them to get the scores correct! You only have to see that Steed Malbranque story to realise they just can't be trusted.}

Have you ever read When the Sky Fell, The Atlantis Blueprint by Rand and Rose Flem-Ath ? some of it is a bit crackers but got me thinking. And also some of the source material that Dan Brown read before writing the da Vinci code? Some of that stuff is more nuts than the was, but again does make you think. There is so much stuff that we don't know. Even in our own supposed history. {Ed001's Note - the thing to do with everything you read is to question it. Never take anything at face value, always make your own decision on what is true.}

Just reading the Krespi article, intersting.....
Read discussionNo fair play Ed never thought of S & G but thinking of the account of it, from my hazy rememberance's of RE, it does seem to fit. Not really sure what could be more destructive than any sort of atomic device, but then probably just as well really. Be handy if we could where it was and something to date it, and if its the same sort of date as tha Inian/ pakistani place then maybe some sort of war in that region perhaps? Literally bombed themselves back to the stone age? Makes you think when we as a species have supposed to have been in existance for 2 million yeras based on the finds but "civilisation has only existed for 12000 years..... {Ed001's Note - there is far too much evidence of supposed stone age people surviving brain surgery etc to make it believable that our civilization only dates back that far.}
