Corporations are overthrowing the UK Police force by stealth - coming to the US soon!
This is disgusting! Its all over folks ....and there is nothing we can do about it!

Why this is bad bad bad!

1. For starters, the police force and their management no longer become accountable to the public. They become accountable to their shareholders

2. The Independent Police Complaints Commission will be rendered obsolete, potentially leaving a member of the public, who may have a serious complaint, having no options but to take expensive legal action against one of the largest companies in the world.

3. Huge distrust and disconnect between the public and their police force will lead to civil clashes

4. Where commercial interests are involved, corruption will prevent the proper investigation of cases. Expect far smaller resources devoted to white collar crimes

5. The quality of policing will become compromised due to improperly trained and qualified individuals (as we have seen with the Olympics shambles)

NO. What you have is an over inflated ego.

Do you know how many guns the average citizen has in the US? Outside of NY and Calif, EVERYONE has multiple rifles for hunting and several handguns with Concealed Carry permits.

The registered deer hunters in Wisconsin alone would constitute the 3rd largest army in the world.

Our police would not stand a chance against a motivated free people - with major supplies of arms and ammo.

You can shake in your boots, but we CAN'T be controlled on our own land.

…I have my sources too…

Just a short snipped from their site;

“We look forward to the opportunity to form an enduring partnership with Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Constabularies, and are committed to delivering a high-quality business case which will be a benchmark for the delivery of UK policing.”

How quaint...

I admire your spirit, but you wont stand a chance when the time comes. rifles and shotguns will be useless when you see what is coming in the likes of crowd dispersal and riot control technology.
And if you properly knew the intricacies of US law, you would be aware that you do not actually 'own' your own land

One thing to be added to the article attached is that a Public Police Force answers to their employers, the Public...A private police force answers to a few Private 'Investors'.

David Taylor-Smith is Public Enemy No 1.

This is the real enemy and it's ugly.

Read the article folks - you are being misled by thge media and porogrammed to believe that this type of dribble -

"In June, G4S Head of the UK and African operations David Taylor-Smith, commenting in the Guardian, predicted that private security companies will be in control of the UK police force within 5 years. He claims that the public do not care whom is running the police force and surprisingly, disputes that there is a difference between the ethos of the Government and private sector."

It IS NOT the private sector. G4S is a multi national PUBLIC limited company with shares. However this does not mean private - private sector is a ltd company. They have been programming you all to believe that stocks and shares listed companies are private they are not by very definition.

Add to this that there are maybe three or four massive global companies that OWN everything. This is the multi national co-orperate dictatorship that is buying democratic capitalist infrastructure. This is not capitalism this is anarchic profiteering. You dont voite on your employment terms do you - you company that you work for is NOT a democratic entity nor is it a capitalist entity as you cant have capitalism without democracy - it is the democarcy that provides the MORALITY as to how you earn money.

The mulit national co-orperate dictatorship is only a MASK for an all together more nefarious dictatorship underneath - that being most likely a theoligical one.

This is the dictatorship creating martial law and overthrowing democratic capitalism...!

UNDERSTAND PEOPLE.....!

"You love your job and the people too
Making a difference is what you do
But consider all you have at stake
The time is now don't make a mistake
Because the enemy prowls, wanting to attack
But we're on the wall, we've got your back
So get out front and take the lead
And be the winner you were born to be
G4S! protecting the world
G4S! so dreams can unfurl
24/7 every night and day
A warrior stands ready so don't be afraid
G4S! secure in your world
G4S! let your dreams unfurl
We're guarding you with all our might
Keeping watch throughout the night"




The extremely creepy official version
