From the office of The President; General Communiqué - July 2008

There are still Boat Party tickets available; but at last sales have started to take off!

The Boat takes place on Saturday 5^th July and costs £25 per ticket (but more on the night).  This is one of the very best SM/Fetish parties of the year; a boat full of delightful deviants cruising the River Thames, right through the kinkiest city in the world: London is beautiful from the river - The lights, the London Eye, St Pauls, Westminster, HMS Belfast, City Hall, Tower Bridge - what better place to enact your very favourite fantasies?  The Boat is a night never forgotten. This is a very special night; don't miss it.

If you want to get into Club Subversion afterwards, we will give you a pass to get in for just ten pounds! 

Boat tickets can be bought from Liberation, nr Covent Garden, or from Zeitgeist, Holloway Road.  The most sensible thing to do is to send your cheque to Tunbridge Wells now, because then we will have the money and we will mail your ticket straight back to you, the old fashioned way.  The very worst thing to do is to buy your ticket on the day of the party from one of our two London agent mentioned above, because that way you get the benefit of the (considerable) advance discount, but we get none of the benefit of the advance payment, and since we have to pay for the boat in advance. 

The next Phoenix schools will be at the Purple Turtle in Camden on Saturday 12^th July, and 30^th August; all 12md - 4pm.

A Nazi paedophile who made nail bombs to attack black, Asian and Jewish people was jailed recently for a total of 16 years.  A judge at Leeds Crown Court told Martyn Gilleard, 31, of Goole, he believed he intended to cause "havoc" with the devices found by police under his bed.  Police found four nail bombs, bladed weapons, bullets, documents about terrorism and extreme right-wing literature when they were searching his flat for child pornography in October last year.  They found the kiddie porn as well.  "Gilleard considers himself to be a British nationalist. He is in fact a terrorist," the judge said.

Rob McCaffrey of Gloucester has also been questioned by police because people think he is a terrorist or a peadophile; although he is a married man, Mr McCaffrey has been seen repeatedly standing on street corners with a camera taking photographs, and reported to police by concerned citizens.  Under Section 44 of the Terrorism Act 2000, police may stop someone without reasonable suspicion, if the area is a likely target for attack.  Luckilly Rob is not a paedophile, because if he had images of children on his camera, he might have had his computer confiscated ‘as evidence'.

Twenty years ago, I thought I'd never write this, but it's a special message to the people of Haltemprice and Howden; ‘For goodness sake, vote for David Davies; thank God that at long last someone has made a proper stand against the dismemberment of British civil liberties - do you really know how little you need to do today for a policeman to lock you up for six weeks without even telling you why?'

And when the next thing they want is the right to introduce aspects of physical discomfort into police questioning, when they tell us that certain people are just too dangerous to be allowed to live,  when they tell us that a fair trial would have been prejudiciual to national security, they have finally become a tyranny, and tyranny seems perilously close.  I am only ashamed that the man standing up to them is a Conservative!
