Dropping by to say we exist

This posting may be taken down for whatever reason the self-censors care to choose, maybe it doesn’t fit into the guidelines they impose on us – no problem, this information has been bill-posted on walls all around Bristol.

The world is being run fucked over by the old-school elite who demand respect for ‘our heritage’ – a history of bloodshed, extortion and racism. Remembrance Day should be for all those who have taken a step outside the comfort of the crowd and pushed things forward, not for soldiers who gave their lives to serve the interests of the rich.

The elite that rule us all like to remain faceless and hidden but they still have names and addresses – get to them like they get to you!

William Howard Robert Durie lives at [PERSONAL INFORMATION REMOVED] He is the High Sheriff of Bristol, only second in precedence to the Lord Lieutenant. He takes custody and charge of the county and city of Bristol. We are sure he would describe this as a ‘purely honorary function’, just like the Lord Mayor, House of Lords and the royal family.

He was born in the blitz in Clifton, and has given 49 years service to the maintenance of law and order. He is a supporter of the Orwellian sounding youth charity ‘Crimebeat’. He is president of the chamber of commerce and vice patron of the national association of alms houses. He is senior partner of Alder King properties and is a director of Coutts and Co – the bank to the royal family. He is Chief Surveyor to the Secret Society of the Merchant Venturers. He is a powerful member of the elite that runs Bristol, and therefore the enemy of the people of Bristol.

Early in the morning of 21st Feb, we paid Durie’s house a visit to cause him discomfort, a nd to show him what its like to have a faceless shadowy force work against him. 3 cars were smeared with paint stripper and tyres deflated on all vehicles, including horse transporters etc. His house windows were daubed with black paint to mark his treachery an corruption in the style of OUR heritage. His fellow residents were also informed by notice of their nasty neighbour.

We recognized our own power and how to see the flaws within societys fabric. The opportunity arose and we took it. It presented itself to us literally on a plate, and we made an example of Bob. We are not menial subjects. We push you aside to make way for social progress, we will not be marginalised. We will not be polite and doff our caps to the rich and powerful. It is everyones responsibility to hold on to their dignity, not come to heel or tug their forelock in the presence of the masters. Hold your head up high and be proud of the tradition you come from.

With their bleeding hearts they splutter out their bile – that they’ve given their lives like a national service for the betterment of this country, devoted selflessly to public service, a mere servant of the public, a Good German to the democratic idea, only doing what any decent man would do.

Well, we’d like to the elite to know that we’re real choked up about the hardships you’ve endeavoured (especially after seeing Bobs mansion house!) but we are finding it hard ourselves to swallow your democracy because it tastes like bile. We’d be quite happy to sweep the roads, staff the phones in the call centres, clean the offices, if only we could earn the meager civil servants salaries that you get. Equality for all? Yeah Guv!
