[…] currency, fearing another ERM-style debacle. (2) ‘New Labour’ is stuck in precisely the same way that the Conservative Party was stuck and it is entirely unclear whether or not a pro-single currency propaganda campaign like those described in Andy Mullen’s piece above would work with so much of the printed media being hostile to it.
[…] PRA with the left. But by using the same methods of collecting information — garbage surveillance, infiltration of target groups, and the use of guilt-by-association in their propaganda — each of these three groups has perverted itself with clandestinism and denunciation for its own sake. This opinion of mine is based on statements from […]
[…] justice’, with its procedures loaded against the defendant and the verdict predetermined. Laughland thinks Milosevich has been misrepresented by the Western media (which was conned by NATO propaganda) and outlines a serious case for this here. Running parallel to his account of the trial is a critique of the ICTY and its legal basis. […]
[…] Mary Whitehouse case against the film ‘Scum’, which now obliges the IBA to vet potentially controversial programmes. Objections came from the Oman Government via Sultan of Oman’s propaganda adviser, Anthony Ashworth, ex IRD. Observer 29 July. See also Observer 26 June for events leading up to this.

Cue apoplexy among the pro single currency groups at the prospect of not being able to use the state’s propaganda assets in the promised referendum on entry into the single currency.

Bacardi have been at the forefront of these attempts, being linked to convicted terrorists and […]
[…] control of its borders, a large (but unknown) number of Jihadist Muslim refugees set up shop in the UK – mostly in London – and began agitation, propaganda and training for Jihad against the decadent West.(12) I don’t think there is much doubt that something like this has happened, though the numbers remain unclear […]
[…] Elsewhere the proceedings of a RUSI conference (British and American Approaches to Intelligence edited by Ken Robertson) gets praise, and Bob Woodward’s Veil gets slagged. This is propaganda. Our (ie US, NATO) intelligence services are good things; the Soviet version is a bad thing. Story ends. But it is nicely done and by the […]
[…] to this test, millions of volumes were at risk of turning into dust; but if the dust didn’t get them they might spontaneously combust, claimed the 1987 propaganda film Slow Fires. By repeatedly presenting such untruths library administrators attracted millions of dollars of public money which was used to dispose of the very material […]

Occasionally a committee will get tired of been used as a conduit for government propaganda and will assert its independence.
