Darren Pollard Gets Arrested!

HPANWO Forum member Darren Pollard has been arrested supposedly for a "breach of the peace": See here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ww-rAeNElj4 Good for Darren for standing up to the powers-that-be who want to dehumanize us and turn us into robots. I hope they've let him out now!

Aliens spotted by Policeman near Silbury Hill

Thanks to Mark Muzrdg for bringing this to my attention:

Here’s the page with the details of the incident which happened on Tuesday: http://www.colinandrews.net/UnexplainedPhenomenaAlert.html . The fact that the witness is a police officer is significant. The police are extremely good witnesses and do not habitually make spurious claims without good reason.

This astounding story reminds me of the books written by Ann Andrews. Here’s an interview with Ann: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWE1TxCf-HA . In November 2007 I visited Ann’s house with my friend Ellis Taylor (See links column on the main site) and I’ve written an article about what it was like: http://hpanwo.blogspot.com/2007/11/my-trip-to-haunted-house.html . In her books about her family’s experiences Ann describes how they were stalked and monitored by strange humanoid creatures and Men-in-Black while they walked through the farmers’ fields near their former house in Kent. Such incidents still occur at their current address. They describe beings which look fairly like average humans; dressed in suits etc, but they can run extremely fast and leap very high into the air.

The area around Avebury and Silbury Hill is renowned for its high strangeness, as I found out myself a couple of weeks ago. See: http://hpanwo.blogspot.com/2009/07/my-avebury-radio-interview.html .

I’ll keep you posted on this story.

Letter to Abel and Cole

Every week I have delivered a salad box of locally-produced fairtrade organic vegetables and other produce from a company called Abel and Cole. Here's their site: http://www.abelandcole.co.uk/

I've sent them the following emial. I'll let you know how they reply:

Hi there.

I've been an Abel and Cole customer for several years now and your salad box has become my staple. As a result I've never been happier or healthier in my life! I'm very keen on the idea of local farms and organic food. This is why I'm so concerned about Codex Alimentarius. A friend of mine, Ian R Crane, is a lecturer and campaigner for natural food and health rights. Here is one of his films in which he warns us that Codex Alimentarius want to stop organic food and force us to eat only chemically-farmed GM food: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5800206429960925518&ei=IPJJSsXeGoWJ-Abm9_j9Bg&q=ian+crane+codex+alimentarius

Are you aware of this? How will the Codex Alimentarius laws affect Abel and Cole and similar retailers (The first legislation comes into action in December)? If you agree that this is a problem then would you be interested in joining Ian and others in the quest to stop Codex Alimentarius?

Thanks, Ben

They've replied:

Dear Ben,

Thank you very much for your email. I have forwarded this to our Marketing department, as I feel that it’s something they need to be aware of. As soon as I hear back from them, I will get back in touch!

In the meantime, if there is anything else we can do for you, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Kind Regards,

Then a few days later I got another email:

Dear Ben,

Apologies for the delay in responding. Thank you for contacting Abel & Cole with regards to your concerns about the Codex Alimentarius. Whilst we appreciate that new laws around the food industry could have a high impact on a retailer like us, we do at the moment have no reason for concern with regards to Codex. This is what the Soil Association, who certifies us, say about Codex Alimentarius:

There is a rumour about Codex that suggests it will ban a wide variety of food supplements as of 31 December 2009. This is wrong. This date refers to the end of the transition phase of the European Food Supplements Directive which brings in a ban after this date of any vitamin or mineral food supplement that has yet to be approved on the Directive's positive list (Annex II). This means that many food supplements containing vitamins and minerals that have not been approved as safe by the European Food Safety Authority will indeed be banned from 1 January 2010. But it is not Codex that is causing these bans — it is the European Directive.

Further to this, the following is what the Soil Association say about Codex and organic food production:

Codex does not directly affect organic standards. Organic standards are regulated by EU legislation and although Codex has produced guidelines for organic farming they are only referenced in the regulation as a measure of equivalence for imports into the EU. The new EU legislation on organic standards came into force on 1 January 2009. This consists of Council Regulation (EC) 834/2007, together with Commission Regulation (EC) 889/2008 (general implementing rules) and Commission Regulation (EC) 1235/2008 (implementing rules for imports).

While we are not unduly concerned at present we will of course be keeping a close eye on any further developments. In the meantime thank you once again for contacting us. If ever there is anything else we can do for you please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Kind Regards,
