Thousands cut food spending to keep cars on road

Almost a third of motorists are sacrificing food in exchange for keeping their cars on the road, according to new research.
Around 30 per cent said they had been forced to cut back on their weekly grocery shop, according to the latest Driver Satisfaction survey by car search website Motors.co.uk.

The savings motorists are making on food are being used to fund rising motoring costs such as fuel and car insurance.

A litre of petrol cost an average of 96.98p in June 2007, compared to 132.20p in July 2012, according to the AA.

Boston Standard: Protest Against Political Establishment

PROTESTERS gathered in Boston on Saturday to make a stand against the ‘dumbing down’ of politics and the lack of representation from government.

Members of the apolitical group UK Resistance: Working Class Action held a demonstration at the Ingram Memorial on the Market Place in which they handed out leaflets and questionnaires to passers-by in a bid to discover local views on politics and discover if there would be support for the group to challenge the traditionally safe Conservative seat at the next general election.

Members believe that if people’s views were better represented it would reawaken an interest in politics for much of the working class.

Mike Watts, who was one of around 15 people to attend the event, told The Standard: “We think the working class is not represented anymore.

“It’s easy to moan, but we think as a mass of people we are being dumbed down and that’s why a lot of people have become apathetic and depoliticised. We want to show people that these so-called safe seats are built on sand.”

Boston: The Spirit of Herbert Ingram Action 14 April 2012

UK Resistance – Working Class Action visited Boston in Lincolnshire on Saturday 14 April 2012. Local UKR activists were joined by their comrades from across the country for the third UK Resistance – Working Class Action demonstration. We were in Boston to highlight the concerns of many local working class people who feel ignored by their elected representatives. UKR also carried out a small poll (the results of which will be published shortly) in the form of a questionnaire amongst shoppers, to ascertain their feelings about how the town was being run.

We had notified Lincolnshire Police of our intentions beforehand and had issued them with a final draft of our literature to assuage any fears they may have had. We know we didn’t have to do this, but in such austere times, we feel we have a responsibility to the Council Tax-payers of areas which we visit not to place any further strain on already overstretched police and local authority budgets.

Our protest was mentioned in local newspaper, the Boston Standard.

ACTIVISTS opposed to the ‘dumbing down’ of politics will be holding a demonstration in Boston this weekend. Protesters from UK Resistance: Working Class Action will make their stand at the Herbert Ingram Memorial this morning (Saturday) from around 10.30am.

Around 15 people are expected to travel from across the country to oppose to the safe Conservative seat held in the Boston and Skegness area. The apolitical group will have placards and will be handing out leaflets and questionnaires to members of the public.

Demonstration for Boston - Boston Standard

Our working class protest was aptly staged in the shadow of the statue of local MP and philanthropist, Herbert Ingram. A photographer from the Boston Standard was present and took photographs of the assembled UKR activists. Placards were held up raising issues over local concerns and the increasing detachment of the main three political parties. Leaflets (see below) were also handed out amongst members of the general public.

The Spirit of Herbert Ingram

UK Resistance – Working Class Action is in Boston today to highlight the genuinely held concerns of many local people who feel ignored by our elected representatives and frustrated at the quality of their leadership and lack of accountability.

In recent years, some areas of Lincolnshire have experienced a 33% rise in population. Many people are concerned about this and also the propensity of local employers to employ only foreign labour. Working class people who raise concerns about immigration are automatically condemned as racist; we believe this response creates frustration and is also counter-productive to our development as a society. Politicians pretending nothing is wrong will only lead to people simply in search of a better life being targeted. In the last five years alone, racially or religiously aggravated offences in Lincolnshire have risen by 22%. This is unacceptable, but simply a result of the genuinely held concerns of people not being addressed.

Locally, unemployment has risen 18% in the last 12 months, well above the national average. In some areas of Boston, a third of people live in fuel poverty, our elderly and disabled are literally forced to decide between heating and eating every winter. There is a housing crisis in Lincolnshire, yet extra government funding amounted to a paltry £419,940. There are also concerns regarding rise in drug and alcohol-fuelled anti-social behaviour on the streets. Under-funded and over-worked law enforcement and health services are buckling under the strain. Cancer patients are told that medicine to save or prolong their life is too expensive. The state education system is failing generations of our children. Long established shops and small businesses are disappearing, former proud working class areas turned into ghettos.

Our MP, Mark Simmonds, asks Parliament for more resources to solve the problems, but in such austere times we believe our politicians should be brave and confront the real issues instead of continually turning to hard-working tax-payers to paper over the cracks. In opposition, the Conservatives called on Labour to address the situation, why have they not acted themselves now the roles are reversed? The problem is, we have idealistic ex-public school pupils running all the mainstream parties. They’re totally detached from reality, terrified of taking tough decisions due to media response and re-election concerns. Instead of dealing with the issues, they raid pensions, raise retirement age, increase tax on petrol, road-tax, alcohol, tobacco and expand VAT on food. In other words, like the banking crisis, they expect you to pay for their folly. Easy come, easy go.

We understand the exasperation and dissatisfaction which is felt, because we feel it too. Unlike our politicians, we are confronting the real issues and intend to channel genuinely held concerns positively by encouraging ordinary people to stand up and speak out and our politicians to start listening to working class common sense again. We do not want problems to fester and leave it to our already under-funded and overstretched police force or NHS to pick up the pieces when frustrations boil over. Our emergency services are decent, dedicated people who contribute to society by serving it, but our politicians cynically take advantage of that altruism.

Our politicians turn out every four years to beg for votes, promise the world, then slope off and change nothing. Proven inept and incapable, they are failing in the basic task of representing us. It is mismanagement of epic proportions which has a negative effect on people’s lives, yet none of them seem to think they are answerable anymore. They will never get back in touch with reality if voters don't remind them they are still answerable to the electorate.

How many times do you hear ordinary people like us say ‘what’s the point? We’ll never change anything’. We believe we can change things, peacefully and democratically. Granted, there is no difference between the main parties anymore, but we believe that once the political gravy train looks like hitting the buffers for certain individuals they will sit up and take notice, especially in safe seats such as Boston and Skegness. Over the coming months and years we intend to confront our elected representatives and insist they address the concerns of ordinary working class people again.

We have lost the Labour Party and the trade unions to speak out on our behalf, so we have to do it for ourselves. We've seen people from Boston stand up for issues they care about in recent months and achieve recognition. We’ve also seen supposedly safe seats, which the main parties take for granted such as Bradford West, overturned by people power. We can do the same thing with working class communities and build voting blocs that will regain us representation again.

This is the first of many actions by UK Resistance – Working Class Action, the peaceful and democratic fight back of the patriotic working class starts here, in Lincolnshire.

We received a surprising amount of positive feedback from members of the public. Activists were amazed at how many people were willing to engage with them and answer the questionnaires, many seemingly simply wanting to unload their frustrations to willing listeners. One elderly member of the public remarked we were the only people who had ever asked them their opinion. Another begged us to visit their city and stage a similar action. Another elderly couple approached us and said “Good on you, we’d join you but we’re too old now”. It is for people like these we are on the streets, they may be considered surplus to requirements by our political class, but they certainly haven’t by us. As a group the visit proved to us that we do have a mandate from the working class to pursue our present course.

One worrying response, which all activists remarked upon, was the fear of travelling to Boston town centre expressed by the vast majority of elderly residents we spoke to. Many said they felt intimidated every time they visited the town centre, regardless of the time of day. The frequency of these complaints worried our activists to such an extent that we have immediately written to the Chief Constable of Lincolnshire and also to Boston Borough Council. UK Resistance – Working Class Action will not tolerate elderly members of our community who have contributed positively to society all their lives, living out their remaining days in fear. We shall take whatever peaceful and legal action is necessary to remedy the situation in Boston. At the moment will shall contain ourselves with the correspondence we have sent to the authorities and await their response.

However, we must stress that this is not automatically a criticism of our police. Many residents who expressed fears, mainly about anti-social behaviour and street crime in Boston town centre, also said they thought highly of the police, there just weren’t enough of them on the ground. This view obviously re-enforces the general ethos of our protest on Saturday, out of touch politicians are responsible and must be held to account for the current situation, not our dedicated public servants.

Other concerns were voiced, immigration seemed to be the number one issue on peoples mind. Many people said they felt a lot of other problems stemmed from the unwillingness of politicians to address immigration. Employment, the propensity of local employers to only employ foreign labour and housing were also major pressing concerns. Anti-social behaviour, including drunkenness in the town centre was repeatedly mentioned. As was litter and the fact many town centre businesses had closed down and new ones, popular in other towns, seemed reluctant to open in the area. One view everyone seemed to share was the feeling of abandonment by the politicians of the main three political parties.

A couple of people were obviously perturbed by the fact we peasants had the temerity to take to the streets. One gentleman claimed we were the political wing of a white supremacist group. Obviously his claims fell on stony ground when, to his embarrassment, it was pointed out that we carried a picture of Honest John Sentamu and had demonstrated in support of the Ugandan Archbishop of York on a previous demonstration. Even our detractor had to agree, they were hardly the credentials of a white power organisation. Obviously, we will encounter middle class fascists, or working class sell-outs like this gentleman who will try and tar us with any brush which they think will silence us. The abandonment of the working class by the Labour Party and trade unions was engineered for a purpose; the middle class establishment simply do not want working class people organised and vocal. Tough. We will emphasise now, and continue to do so in the future, we do not support any political party or ideology, we do not have links with any other organisation or group. We will never subscribe to any ideology our ancestors fought against and in some cases paid the ultimate sacrifice. We are simply a working class resistance movement seeking to credibly and effectively defend our community, its customs, traditions and way of life. We will not waste any time on, or be silenced by, immature and inaccurate accusations by people bereft of an argument or a point to debate.

At the end of the protest, UKR activists posed with a Falkland Islands flag to show solidarity with our comrades in the South Atlantic and their fight for the right of self-determination in the face of recent Argentinian provocation. We were proud to stand alongside one of our members who played an active part in the liberation of the Falkland Islands in 1982.

This is the first of many actions by UK Resistance - Working Class Action. Following such a positive response, we can confidently state that we have a genuine mandate to act in Boston and the wider Lincolnshire area in the future. For now, we will await a response from Lincolnshire Police and Boston Borough Council regarding the safety and the perceived safety of the elderly members of our community. That is something in the short term that we are determined to rectify.

We, the working class, we, the people!

UK Resistance in Boston, Lincolnshire

UK Resistance - Working Class Action today visits in Boston in Lincolnshire to highlight the concerns of local people and the failure of their elected representatives to acknowledge those concerns and act upon them.

We are the working class resistance, long live the resistance

By George, he's done it yet again....

RESPECT Party candidate George Galloway last night won the Bradford West by-election by 10,140 votes, a swing from labour of over 5 thousand in a turn-out of around 50%. Galloway claimed that it was the "most sensational victory in by-election history". Labour MP Toby Perkins bizarrely claimed it was Galloway's appearance on televisions Big Brother which was responsible for the win. Labour’s Head of Cultural Fascism, Harriet Harperson, admitted the result was "very bad" for Labour. Galloway, who commanded a 56% share at the ballot box, said the "mammoth vote" represented the "Bradford Spring" and was a "total rejection" of the three major parties which constitute the British political system. Galloway said he thought there was a ‘tidal wave waiting to break across many parts of the country and last night it broke in Bradford. It's a wave of alienation towards the mainstream political parties and their leaders.’

Adam Boulton floundered on Sky News, outclassed by Galloway and reduced to apparently trying to oust a confession from Galloway that he was now a Muslim. CH4's Jon Snow tweeted that it was “a protest vote”. Snow's tweet actually proved how remote from reality the ruling left-wing middle class establishment is. People have quite simply had enough of the empty promises of our political class, their idealistic but wholly impractical and naïve politics. It was obvious why the metropolitanista were glum, in subsequent interviews, Galloway pin-pointed everything which is wrong with New labour, no real leaders anymore and no working class participation whatsoever. Galloway told BBC Radio 4's The World At One that Labour had lost touch with its traditional core voters: "If Labour doesn't go back to being a Labour Party again, it will never command the support - let alone the enthusiasm - of the kind of people who supported it for at least 100 years."

Bradford Spring-board for patriotism

It might not be readily apparent to patriots, but this is a landmark result in the fight to regain political representation for the English people. Instead of bemoaning the result, claiming he played to the Islamic bloc vote, or that sectarianism is the winner etc, we should take the massive positives which are apparent from Galloway's win.

Apathy rules amongst the English, how many times do you hear people talking about the political process and saying "I don't vote, what's the point, we'll never change anything". Well it certainly doesn’t amongst the electorate of Bradford West. Our friends in the north demonstrated to us that the three-party stranglehold over British politics can be broken. Yes, you can change things you don’t like. Yes, you can get rid of inept politicians and replace them with people who will speak out and support YOUR interests.

Bradford West could be the turning point for the English patriotic resistance movement. It should, if we have ANYTHING about us, spur English people into voting again. We should learn from it. Can we change it? Yes we can! We have been brainwashed into believing we cannot change anything and that we can't survive without the three main parties. We need to reciprocate the feeling of change emanating from West Yorkshire now, and ensure OUR VOICE is heard in the same manner as the voters of Bradford West. If we do not learn, adapt and capitalise from this safe large Labour majority being overturned, then perhaps we deserve everything we get.

All three main parties pay scant regard to the wishes of their electorate anymore. They send our children to their deaths in their foreign wars, they use our money to bail out their chums in the banking industry. They tell us we're all in it together, while they screw us into the ground with taxes, but allow their corporate peers to avoid paying their dues to the society which spawned them and facilitated their enormous wealth. Our elderly and disabled have to choose between eating and heating every winter, our cancer patients are told there is no money for drugs which could save or prolong their lives, while we send billions in foreign aid abroad. They can do it only because we allow them to. It’s obvious why they get away with it, many of us are so stuck in our ways, we are cowards in the face of change. The majority of us are still voting out of family loyalty, or allegiance to principles or policies which our three main parties have long abandoned, discarded as irrelevant. If we keep being reactionary, and moaning about everything that arises with resignation, we are finished. Instead, we should be looking to learn and adapt. We will not gain any ground while the three party system is strong and settled, that is why Bradford West is such a positive result for us, we need to perpetuate this air of political subversion.

An English Ummah

The patriotic resistance of this country needs to learn from Bradford West. It is no good individual political parties announcing manifestos when they have no electorate, that makes them just as bad as the main parties. You will never inspire the English by turning up every four years in a suit spouting political rhetoric. We need to talk to ordinary people who are disenfranchised from the system, educate them that they can make a change. Bradford West was fought on the issues which voters in the constituency wanted confronting. We need to appeal to people in the same fashion, form patriotic bloc votes like RESPECT is showing us can be done. We need to engage with the abandoned English working class, listen and address their concerns.  If we do, we might finally smash this middle class metropolitan political cartel which currently has the country in a stranglehold.

However, we have to be honest with ourselves and overcome self-inflicted obstacles first, such as our penchant for anti-intellectualism and our habit of mocking anyone who cares enough to stand up and be counted in a credible manner. We have to establish a patriotic intelligentsia, which would operate within the system it seeks to topple. We have to play the game, if we don’t, we lose, simple as that. We have to look at our approach, nationalist or patriotic groups up to now have not spoken in a language that ordinary people have responded to in any great number, certainly nowhere near enough to make a mark. We have to admit our failings and address them.  This is our Dunkirk, where we realise the path we have trodden might not have been the right one, that others are ahead of us in the game, it’s the moment where we take stock, adapt and prepare to retake the fight to our enemies.

There needs to be a clear strategy, laborious work done at grassroots level to re-engage ordinary people adrift from politics. We need to represent ourselves but we also need an electorate. The reason the main parties only address middle class concerns is because they are the only people who vote in any great number still. We need to forget small party allegiances and policies for now (all patriotic parties and groups should work together, we can sort it out afterwards). All groups with similar aims need to call a ceasefire and stop arguing with each other, the reds did it and attained power. If we are to survive, never mind prosper and regain lost ground, we need to form a bloc vote and vote according to OUR interests. Bradford West should sound the death knell for English apathy. but we have to accept that we need to learn lessons wherever they may come from, educate ourselves, re-politicise our people and most importantly VOTE.

We are people on whose backs the greatest empire the world has ever seen was forged. We are the descendants of people who paid the ultimate sacrifice for this country without a second thought. Now is the time to resist in the manner of our forefathers, in a credible and effective fashion. England is the birthplace of political radicalism, we are sons and daughters of Lilburne, of Place, descendants of Shurmer and Bevin, people who spoke out for the ordinary man in the street without fear and regardless of consequence. It is time to pay due respect to such illustrious forebears by using our heads and salvaging what is left of this once great nation and our way of life…..

Birmingham Mail prints UKR response to Maureen Messent

The Birmingham Mail today published the response from UK Resistance - Working Class Action to the discriminatory outburst by one of its columnists, Maureen Messent.

Although great offence was caused by the Messent article, the newspaper publishing the response, albeit an edited version has hopefully gone some way to reducing frustrations felt by members of the working class after reading such discriminatory bilge.

UK Resistance - Working Class Action will continue to oppose any discriminatory attacks on the working class of this country in a credible, positive and effective manner.

We are the resistance, long live the patriotic resistance!


We, the people!

Maureen Messent: An open letter to the Birmingham Mail

Dear Sirs,

Maureen Messent is correct thast many under-achieving white English children ‘have parent(s) with no incentives to encourage their progeny to succeed’. However, I have to ask, where does she think these parents were educated? Does she think they appeared out of thin air, that everyone decided en-masse they would apathetic with regards to the future of their children? The fact of the matter is that the parents, grandparents and even great-grandparents of the children she refers to are products of our education system. It is a system which has been failing the majority of ordinary working class people for decades. If this is not the case, then I must assume that Messent is implying that the English working class are in some way inferior, which I am sure she isn’t, as that would be undeniably racist.

The education system has failed, and continues to fail, generation upon generation of English working class schoolchildren. Discipline was abandoned (now reintroduced for some strange reason) in British schools along with society in general. Tried and tested successful teaching methods have been replaced with one failed experiment after another. We are now seeing the culmination of that failing in the people she so callously dehumanises with provocative language I dare her to use when referring to any other social or ethnic group. Of course, she won’t utilise similar language or stereotypes with other ethnicities. If she did, she would be breaking National Union of Journalists guidelines, but because it’s the English working class, we are viewed as fair game by Messent and unfortunately your newspaper by association.

Unlike other previously under-achieving social groups, the English working class, now a minority in its own right according to a recent survey by research group Britain Thinks, has, up to now, been continually overlooked and ignored by the system which identifies and combats under-achieving children from other minority groups. The reasons why are obvious, the English working class has been deserted by its traditional benefactors such as the church, robbed of its organs of defence such as the Labour Party or trade unions. Therefore, with no-one to speak for them, English working class concerns such as education, but also housing, welfare and employment have been routinely ignored by successive governments.

Yes, there are many white English families now receiving benefits, but to dismiss them all as workshy or unwilling to secure decent jobs is wrong, not just because it is stereotypical and discriminatory, but because it is incorrect. Anyone who lives in the real world knows that there simply aren’t the same amount of jobs there once were and the population has increased, not to mention competition from low-overhead and in some cases subsidised economic migrants under-cutting many domestic job-seekers for the few vacant positions which remain in the UK. It’s only become relevant now, because the ignorant, like Messent, often seek scapegoats when the going gets tough. Just like politicians who seek the lowest common denominator to blame for their own mistakes, the weakest in society are easier prey than the real culprits.

These people, who Messent cruelly and unnecessarily dehumanises with terminology such as ‘bovine’, are in actual fact the abandoned English working class, surplus to requirements now our manufacturing is farmed out to third world sweat-shops. With the country’s manufacturing industries in terminal decline and few employment prospects, these abandoned people have been left to rot in white council estate ghettos. Yes, a benefits culture is encouraged, but who by? To say these under-educated and therefore depoliticised people are the architects of their own destiny, to say they have engineered the situation, is laughable, not to mention crass.

What we are actually seeing is the result of abject cowardice by our politicians, who now care more about short-term gain, re-election and power than they do about the national interest and the personal development of their electorate. Well, when I say electorate, this is where the reason behind the dereliction of the working class becomes obvious: a poor education results in lower expectations, it also results in people becoming detached from the democratic process. The situation has been engineered, but not by the people Messent is keen to single-out, victimise and blame. Our industry has been allowed to crumble, in preference to the low-hassle but high exploitation of people from the third world, particularly the far-east. It isn’t in the interests of our establishment to improve education standards for English working class kids, nor kick-start manufacturing, because if they did, it would mean ordinary people would expect gainful employment. Where would the jobs come from?

I think the one interesting phrase is Messent’s use of the word ‘lumpen’, if she is using one definition of the word, then she actually agrees with me that the people concerned are dispossessed or displaced, people who have been cut off from the socio-economic class with which they would ordinarily be identified. If she is using the other definition, vulgar or common, which she obviously must be, then she is being unnecessarily offensive.

Messent branded parents she doesn’t know as ‘barely-literate’and ‘idle’, she said they are people who ‘couldn’t give a damn if their children succeed at school or not’. She stereotyped them as people in ‘subsidised homes’ which sprouted ‘huge TV screens where the rest of us shelve our books’. It became ironically farcical that she then went on to label them as ‘abysmally ignorant lumps of bigotry’, which were exactly the qualities she had herself displayed throughout this ill-thought out piece of defamatory nonsense.

The Birmingham Mail has severely let itself down by publishing such discriminatory bilge. It’s unfair, biased and if any other socio-ethnic group was singled out and publicly horsewhipped in such a manner it would be condemned and Messent would be out of a job.

Class Discrimination: The last acceptable form of bigotry in modern Britain?

Class discrimination is the last acceptable form of bigotry in modern Britain. Why? Because the people instigating this particular form of bigotry are from the ruling class. The middle class, the internationalist, metropolitan class, the class which makes the rules, decides what governmental legislation contains and therefore makes the law of the land. 

Discrimination

Under UK law, anti-discrimination legislation covers one or more of the following groups who possess what are known as 'protected characteristics'.

Anti-discrimination laws protects people who are treated differently based upon their sex, race, (colour, nationality, ethnic or national origins), marital or civil partnership status, disability, religion, sexual orientation, age, gender reallignment, maternity and even trade union membership. People who associate with any of these groups are also protected under discrimination legislation.
The law specifies that there are three different kinds of discrimination:

1) Direct discrimination occurs when someone is treated less favourably on the grounds of race, colour, nationality or ethnic/national origin.

2) Indirect discrimination is when one racial group is given preference over another, or if a policy that applies to everyone, but it is disadvantageous to a particular protected characteristic is introduced.

3) Victimisation, occurs when someone with a protected characteristic, or an associate, is singled out or persecuted because of that protected characteristic.

Discrimination against the working class, who don't possess any unprotected characteristics, is common-place, even in equality-obsessed modern Britain. It is allowed because the working class are not a recognised ethnic group. Even though a survey conducted in 2011 found that only 17% of people in Britain still considered themselves working class, therefore are obviously a recvognised minority, discrimination because of dialect, dress or address are not included in The Equality Act 2010. Consequently, privileged and privately educated middle class millionaires are free, in some cases on working class licence-fee payers money, to abuse, mock and lampoon the working class with total and utter impunity.

It is an indisputable fact that the social groups which constitute the British class system markedly differ, some far more than others.
If they didn't our middle class friends who run Britain's elitist media wouldn't be able to point out the differences and ridicule us. 

The British class system is traditionally defined by a range of distinctions, accent, manners, background, occupation, interests or hobbies or the company one chooses to keep. There are stark differences between the working class minority and the ruling middle classes, many of which lead to discrimination. Working class honesty, which manifests itself  mostly in blunt terminology, is now regarded as vulgar. There is also blatant discrimination against people who retain their regional accent. Working class children in some schools are now being given elocution lessons to rid them of any semblance of local identity. It is quite simply social engineering, in this case dressed up as teaching pronunciation. Can you imagine the middle class establishment doing that to any other social, cultural or ethnic group?

Of course this discrimination, which ranges from mockery to virtual ethnic cleansing, is all part of the great British classless society swindle. A society where class doesn't matter, but where the toffs are still laughing at the oiks, even though they are actually people who have been deserted by the metropolitan elite that is mocking them. The point that they are actually products of the wanton and selfish desertion by what now constitutes mainstream British society which they have constructed is obviously lost on our 'betters'. The fact that they are referring to the abandoned working class from former proud manufacturing powerbases upon the backs of whom the country, empire and their cossetted, priveleged lives were built upon is obviously lost on them.
Working class people are regularly and openly mocked by an elitist middle class dominated media, the Daily Mail thought a Paddy Power advert showing 'chavs' being shot 'hilarious'. Spiked! Online thought nothing of running a headlines entitled 'Close encounters of the chav kind'. FHM magazine also joins in, printing headlines such as 'Chav Chanteuse', when ironically describing the working class 'mockney' (which does what it says on the tin) caricature adopted by middle-class Lily Allen. The sickeningly politically correct BBC, thinks nothing of leading with the needless headline 'Burberry versus the chavs' when discussing how the fashion label wishes to distance itself from working class people. It doesn't stop with the media either, online bookseller Amazon has a 'chav tag' which enables patrons to categorize working class literature and working class authors as such. There are online games such as 'Chav Hunter' which the authors of encourage users to 'take out the chavs hanging around town' with weapons.

If the working class didn't differ so obviously from the ruling middle classes, our friends in the media wouldn't be able to point it out. 
The two classes differ to the point where, as defined by the Oxford Dictionary, it can (certainly now the socio-economic and more importantly education gap between the two classes has widened) be successfully argued they are different ethnicities.

Ethnicity as defined by the Oxford Dictionary:

adjective

• relating to a population subgroup (within a larger or dominant national or cultural group) with a common national or cultural tradition: ethnic and cultural rights and traditions leaders of ethnic communities.

We are always being told we live in a multicultural society, where everyone is equal, as working class people, we do not possess the 'political power' which is used to exclude white people per se from discrimination legislation by sociologists (i.e. power x discrimination = racism), we are a separate ethnic group entirely to the ruling majority middle class.

We are being discriminated against, terms such as 'underclass' or 'chav' are highly offensive and let's be honest, are actually purposely engineered to dehumanise us in the eyes of the general populace. If we are dehumanised the rest of the human race cannot empathise with our plight. It's that simple.

The working class have no representative bodies to credibly defend them anymore, that is until now.

UK Resistance - Working Class Action finds terminology such as chav or underclass highly offensive and deeply insulting. We do not recognise the existence of an underclass, we do however acknowledge the presence of an abandoned working class, who we stand alongside.
In this new age of equality, UK Resistance - Working Class Action finds it insulting that one group should be ignored so blatantly by discrimination legislation.

UK Resistance - Working class Action believes that discrimination legislation should apply to the English working class as it does to any other group.

We damand parity under the law of the land. We call for working class people to be recognised as the minority we now indisputably are. We believe the working class should be classified as a social group with protected characteristics under the law, particularly discrimination and hate speech laws.

It is time to end the hypocrisy.
It is time for equality and time for it now!

We are the patriotic working class resistance, long live The Resistance!

Fewer teens at literacy standard

Fewer of England's 14-year-olds reached the expected literacy standard in tests last year, final figures confirm.

But the decline from 2005 was only half as bad as the provisional statistics issued last autumn had suggested. The government said 73% attained Level 5 in English, down from 74%. In maths it was 77%, up three percentage points, and in science 72%, up two points.
There were widely varying performances in different types of school, with academies doing the worst.

UNISON the real 'union of fascists'



Edward Bone

A nurse who set up his own trade union branch and raised concerns over patient care was subjected to a 'campaign of harassment' by trade union Unison, an Empoyment Tribunal has ruled.
  The tribunal decided that Edward Bone, a nurse at the Lakes mental health unit in Colchester, was unfairly treated by the mental health partnership in north Essex on four occasions.
The tribunal heard how Mr Bone, of Nelson Road, Colchester, was labelled a “bigot” and greeted with the words “hello Adolf” by members of the public sector union.

The danger of ex-public schoolboys playing at foreign diplomacy

Libyan militants in the city of Benghazi showed their appreciation of the role Britain played as part of the NATO forces which rid the country of the tyrannical rule of Colonel Gaddafi atthe weekend by desecrating British war graves in a local cemetary. Headstones in the cemetary were toppled and destroyed and a crucifix which overlooked the grounds vandalised. The graves belonged to British serviceman killed in North Africa during WWII.
Following the destruction, the people responsible brazenly posted a video of events on the Internet.
The Foreign Office said the attack was belived to have been carried out by a group of hardline Salafist jihadists,because Muslim graves were also desecrated.
The British Ambassador also apparently 'voiced concerns' (I bet that had the Libyans quaking in their boots) with members of the Transitional National Council, including Chairman Abdul Jalil and Prime Minister Abdel Rahim al-Kib.

The NTC has apparently issued an offical statement, apologising to all Christians and instructed police to make regular patrols to ensure no further attacks occur. That's alright then, let's forget the unnecessary sentiment and get on with trying to procure oil, except there seems to be a few other problems, our criminally naive public school educated leaders don't seem to have forseen. For starters, they didn't forsee a former detainee of Guantanamo Bay becoming an influential member of the NTC.
Abdel Hakim al-Hasady, an influential Islamic preacher and high-school teacher who spent five years at a training camp in Afghanistan, oversees the recruitment and training of the NTC armed forces. His commander in the field is Salah al-Barrani, a former fighter from the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, or LIFG, which was formed in the 1990s by Libyan mujahedeen returning home from Afghanistan.
Sufyan Ben Qumu, a Libyan army veteran who worked for Osama bin Laden's holding company in Sudan and later for an al Qaeda-linked charity in Afghanistan, is also training recruits.
Both Hasady and Ben Qumu were arrested by Pakistani authorities in 2001 and were turned over to the U.S. Hasady was released to Libyan custody two months later but Ben Qumu spent six years at Guantanamo Bay before he was turned over to the Libyans in 2007. Wall Street Journal
Something else they didn't forsee is that today, Cyrenaica, the eastern region of Libya, has declared itself autonomous from the rest of the country and elected a regional congress, and appointed the former King's grandson Ahmed al-Senussi as its new ruler. The announcement was condemned as a 'blatant call for fragmentation' by the ruling NTC. http://rt.com/news/libya-split-cyrenaica-autonomy-971/comments/

The Easterners have already formed their own army, the Barqa Supreme Military Council, independent from the NTC and are now ready to fight for autonomy (and it would seem control of the oil).
'Even if we had to take over the oil fields by deploying our forces there or risk another war, we will not hesitate for the sake of Barqa'  Barqa commander Col. Hamid Al-Hassi

No doubt we will have claims from the Foreign Office that these events were unforseeble, but were they? Probably to the naively trusting ex-public schoolboys we have representing us, but not to the rest of the population who inhabit the 'real world'.

The End of the Mass Media?

For as long as there have been newspapers we, the people, have been manipulated by the editors and publishers. We have bought what they told us to buy, watched the films and television they told us to watch, eaten the things they told us to eat, or followed the latest fad-diet, again at their behest. Millions of us have over-looked the fact that statistically we all share our ‘star-sign’ with approximately one-twelfth of the population and have managed to find some personal relevance in the inane gibbering of Russell Grant and ‘Awwwwooing’ of Mystic Meg.

“The Sun” famously claimed that they had won the 1992 general election for the Conservatives, against the run of play. The “Evening Standard” made the same claim in 2008 after it handed the London Mayoral election to Boris Johnson. These were no idle boasts, but a chilling, ‘in-your-face’ demonstration of the power of the mass-media to impose their will up to the highest level, via the ballot-box.

For years, the broadsheets sold their wares at a fraction of the going rate on university campuses. An insidious way of getting their hooks into the decision-makers of the future.

This shameless manipulation of the population has not been limited to the print-media, of course. The BBC is effectively a wholly-owned subsidiary of the cultural-marxist elite paid for by an effective poll-tax, but with a bit of surreptitious EU funding thrown in for good measure. Nothing impartial in the Beeb’s news coverage, I’m afraid. And don’t think for a moment that ITN is any more likely to present the facts, without its own spin being vigorously applied. Here’s an interesting link.

http://resistance-uk.blogspot.com/2011/11/tales-from-seaside-part-i.html

Light at the end of the tunnel.

Here’s the good news. We the people and lest we forget, the voters, no longer have to get our news and opinions from agenda-driven proprietors or NUJ propagandists. The booming section of the internet colloquially known as “the blogosphere” has freed us up.

My first port of call each day, nowadays, is my twitter-feed. I follow a few satirical types for light relief, some tweeters of both left and right-wing political persuasions, some UK-based, some foreign sources, some accredited journalists but mostly just the man and woman in the street.

Guess what. The opinions of the ordinary people are no less erudite or relevant than those of the journalists, MPs and broadcasters I follow and having nothing to gain financially by putting their truths out there, almost certainly more honest.

For every @afneil I will give you an @Englandstruth.

The internet has broken the traditional mass-media’s stranglehold on the political process.

Onwards and upwards.

UK Resistance - Working Class Action today announces its support for a petition calling for the investigation into the Birmingham Pub Bombings to be reopened.

https://submissions.epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/24443

The petition has been started by Julie Hambleton, sister of victim Maxine Hambleton who was 18 when she was killed in the atrocity.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-birmingham-17029471

The Birmingham pub bombings occurred on 21 November 1974. Explosions in two packed public houses, The Tavern in The Town and the Mulberry Bush in Birmingham city centre killed 21 people and injured 182. 

Although warnings were issued they were vague and inaccurate, and the pubs were not evacuated in time. The Provisional IRA was blamed for the bombings, but denied responsibility.

Six men were convicted of the attacks and sentenced to life imprisonment. They served 16 years before being released after a second appeal where their convictions were declared unsafe.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/birmingham-six

After the 'Birmingham Six' were cleared no one was ever charged with the worst act of terrorism carried out in Britain prior to 7/7. Twenty one people died, hundreds were wounded and maimed, their families deserve justice.

It seems the lives of the victims, mainly working class Brummies, are not as important as other unsolved murder cases which are pursued with the full blessing and weight of the establishment. David Cameron ruled out a new investigation recently, but if this petition obtains over 100k signatures Parliament will debate the matter.

An Observation from the Tradesman's Entrance

I had an interesting encounter yesterday. I was leafletting the UK Resistance demonstration, outside Westminster Abbey. I handed a leaflet to a lady cleric and she read the first few lines before asking me, "Are you one of these white supremacist groups?"
I discounted total insanity and assumed that she hadn’t yet read as far as the bit where we expressed our support for Dr. Sentamu, who is a Ugandan gentleman and therefore unlikely to be massively popular amongst white supremacist racists. The Revd. Michael Nazir-Ali was the only other person mentioned by name in our leaflets. He got a favourable report from us. He hails from the Indian sub-continent and holds joint Pakistani-British citizenship. I think any sensible observer would agree that we have, individually and as a group, established our non-racist bona-fides.
I asked the lady priest what exactly had prompted her to ask such an offensive question. She apologised for any offence caused and replied, and I quote: "It says 'working-class'. That’s what a lot of white supremacists call themselves."
To say I was shocked that a presumably well-educated person could come out with such an outrageous statement would be a massive understatement.
On reflection though, her reaction made perfect sense.
She is a part of the 'establishment' and as such, her perception of society has been corrupted to the point where she believes that any white working-class person (i.e. me) who disagrees with the line trotted out by the political/media elite in any way is automatically a racist. Once the race-card is played any serious debate on any topic is, of course, immediately ended.
This lady did not, I am convinced, come to this mind-set independently and she at least had the decency to blush, when I pointed out what the lawyers would no doubt call “The John Sentamu/Michael Nazir-Ali Lacuna” in her assumption.
The media, at the behest of their fellow cultural fascists in government have manufactured this preposterous idea that all working-class people who are not from an ethnic minority are racists.
On that basis, we are unable to debate on any topic with our ‘betters’ as we were attempting to do in London.
If we have the stronger argument, out comes the race card.
End of discussion.
I was initially upset by the casual way in which this lady priest thought it was perfectly acceptable to ask me, in a conversational tone, if I was a white supremacist.
Later, I was pleased that she had given me a graphic insight into how much work we have to do. We have been stitched up.  Well, no more.
We will not be dismissed any longer.

Rowan Williams: Surplice to Requirements

UK Resistance – Working Class Action at the General Synod 2012

On the 6 of February 2012, a number of UKR activists assembled outside the General Synod at Church House, Westminster. There were a number of contentious issues the activists wanted to bring to the attention of the Synod delegates. A press release was issued prior to the protest.
 

Press release: UK Resistance – Working Class Action

UK Resistance - Working Class Action is a patriotic working class united front staging its first demonstration outside the Church of England General Synod on 6 February 2012. We will assemble outside the Queen Elizabeth Conference Centre on the Broad Sanctuary, Westminster from 12 noon onwards.

The small gathering is to call for the resignation of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, and for him to be replaced by the Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu. We believe Dr Williams to be out of touch with public opinion and severely lacking in the leadership qualities required in a time of widespread attacks upon Christian belief and custom in a Britain which is morally as well as economically bankrupt.

We would like to emphasise this protest was planned well in advance of Dr Sentamu's recent remarks regarding gay 'marriage', however we fully support those comments and believe that Dr Sentamu speaks for the common people on this and many other pressing issues. 'Honest John' Sentamu gives us, the English working class, representation we now lack in modern Britain. At this dawn of English political awakening we believe the fearless Dr Sentamu to be the Desmond Tutu of the English people.

UKR – Working Class Action is a small but national group of working class patriots who seek to combat the covert social class war we believe has been waged against our people over the last 40 years. UKR is neither right nor left wing, we have no connection to any political party, we are apolitical political activists. We are simply working class people who have woken up to the threat to our way of life and who intend to peacefully resist in the manner of our forefathers.

We are the resistance, long live the resistance!

Victor Burns

UK Resistance – Working Class Action

The protest began at noon with activists peacefully making their point across the road from the entrance to the Synod on the Great Sanctuary, Westminster. UKR activists also patrolled the other side of the road distributing leaflets to interested members of the public.

Activists assemble on Broad Sanctuary

 

   

The message on the leaflets was as follows:

 

A DIRECT APPEAL TO THE MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL SYNOD OF THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND

We stand here today as freeborn English working class patriots who, along with the majority of people, have watched with bewilderment at the denigration and slow disintegration of English culture. We have faced a covert social onslaught for decades, our cultural traditions and values along with the Christian belief system from which they were propagated are routinely mocked and devalued. Although admittedly not outwardly religious, as a group we recognise the important role the Church of England has played in forming the values and customs that we hold so dear and seek to uphold.

We also hope to gain representation for and highlight the plight of our people, the English working class. In an era of great technological advances, as working-class people we have regressed over a hundred years. Millions of us have been callously abandoned by the establishment, our once famously hard working and close-knit communities have disintegrated. We find ourselves purposely under-educated, unemployed, politically unrepresented, discriminated against, abandoned and ignored. Our traditional representative bodies, the Labour Party, trade unions and the Church of England have been hijacked by a militant middle class liberal elite with a subversive socialist agenda.

In the main, the Church of England has retreated constantly in the face of a militant liberal atheist assault masquerading as secularism. A long line of ineffectual leaders have repeatedly given ground to and even colluded with those who seek their and our downfall.

'We must make our stand with the oppressed'

There is a bitter irony in the fact that those are the words of the current incumbent of the Archbishopric of Canterbury, Rowan Williams. We, the English working-class, are the oppressed, but our struggle is the last thing Dr Williams or his ilk in the Church will address. In fact, it is increasingly clear that he does not have the best interests of the Church, or indeed the English people, at heart.

'Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them'

Matthew 7:15–23

The words and actions of Williams suggest that he has not progressed from the subversive Marxist ideals he embraced as a University student. He spends too much time theologising and as a result has become detached, not just from his flock but from the real world.

We do not however want Dr Williams replaced with out of touch conservative elements within the Church who by their inaction and silence are complicit with the current status quo. Only the Revd. Michael Nazir-Ali and especially the Most Revd. and Rt Hon Dr John Sentamu, have addressed the concerns of ordinary English people and the issues they face. Dr Sentamu speaks for many people when he opposes attacks on tradition, widespread revisionism driven by political correctness and the denigration of English culture.

We hereby call for the immediate resignation of the Archbishop of Canterbury or his removal by the members of the General Synod.

We call on the members of the General Synod appoint a true man of the people, 'Honest John' Sentamu, to replace Williams as Archbishop of Canterbury.

We believe we are fast reaching the point of no return, and that the future existence of the working-class to now be inseparable from that of the Church of England. We stand or fall together. Now is not the time for woolly Christianity, now is the time for militancy, your and our survival depends on it.

WE, THE WORKING CLASS, WE, THE PEOPLE!

UK RESISTANCE - WORKING CLASS ACTION

Common People against Common Purpose

 

In all 17 committed patriotic activists turned up, close to a full turn out and proof that the UKR could field an effective team for mobilisations. One activist, South-East organiser Terry Ribune reported: “17 patriots here. We are getting a good response and are enjoying the experience.”

The placards were unveiled at held up and gained an immediate profile. The leaflets were also well written, made and were liberally distributed. Activists protested in a disciplined and orderly manner opposite the entrance to Dean’s Yard which the delegates passed through. It is possibly the first time in history that a working class group has protested about working class issues outside the General Synod, so in that respect we have left our mark for posterity alone. Other roving activists targeted delegates and interested members of the public across the road outside Westminster Abbey. The location and the nature of the demo ensured we got our message to literally thousands of people, people going about their business in Westminster, tourists, most of the delegates at the Synod. We had a lot of support from passing members of the public and activists sensed their presence was getting round as one was asked if they were 'that working class group'. We got support from members of the public thanks to a combination of things, our attitude, our disciplined conduct and most importantly our valid message. It is interesting that some delegates questioned if we were a ‘white supremacist group’, it seems that in some middle class eyes, any group of white working class people who stand up to be heard are automatically either right-wing or racist, the fact we were calling for a man of African heritage to be promoted to one of the highest offices in the land seemed to escape them.

We made contact with one church group who at least offered us a dialogue re abandoned and isolated working class communities, which we gratefully accepted. Activists were fully briefed and prepared to tackle any questions raised. One, Erik, tackled a bishop in the shadow of Westminster Abbey. After a lengthy chat the bishop conceded that Erik had raised some very valid points, which again is proof that as working class people we are quite adept at speaking up for ourselves and holding our own in any debate.

Coalition Government Minister Vince Cable walked past the protest, pretending to be on the telephone, he was challenged to discuss issues concerning working class community by one activist, but the pretend phone call was obviously more pressing and Cable ignored the request.

The afternoon was concluded at the end of daylight at around 4.00pm and activists were addressed by Vic Burns who called for recognition of the concerns of working class people and demanded political representation. Burns concluded his speech by pointing at the Synod delegates in what he termed "their ivory towers of privilege" and posed the question "If Jesus was here, where would he be standing, in there with the out of touch delegates and their luxury, or out here, in the cold with the common people?"

Birmingham activist, Vic Burns addresses the gathering

 

After the protests the mood of activists was buoyant:

Terry Ribune: “So many people were interested, intrigued or supportive or just plain confused as to who and what we are. Only a couple were anti but even then they were polite, at no time (apart from a couple of drunks) did we get any animosity. Really proud to have been part of it to be honest, more than that, I’m extremely proud of being a member of this group! Everything was spot on, we made our point, we did it well, we upset nobody and we should be proud of ourselves.”

Rene Sansom: “They haven’t got a clue, it’s been a long time since genuine working class people stood their ground, and they can’t figure it out. The hierarchy thought we were gone, they dismissed us as irrelevant. Well no more working class silence. In the words of Kenneth Wolstenholme: "They think it's all over... it is now!" Working Class Action loud and proud.”

Vic Burns: "Speaking personally the most important thing for me yesterday was that we were there, making a statement. We made history by doing what we did, we're the first working class political group since before the Labour Party started, but also because unlike many of our peers in the working class, we cared enough about our country and our way of life to stand up, to put ourselves out and say no, we're not having it, you might have done a job on us but now is when we start fighting back, and we have started that now, fighting back effectively."

UK Resistance - Working Class Action has a number of protests and political activism planned over the next 12 months, and we are looking for dedicated and most importantly disciplined patriotic political activists.
