TheEye is feeling in a particularly subversive mood at the moment obviously. This whole article is reproduced from the Old Holborn site but give it a look and say what you think. (Sweary bits warning for those who still like a non-sweary environment on this side of the hedge)

“When I started this blog, a little over a year ago, I did so because I was sick of being censored on Internet Forums. I know I have a voice, I know my own mind, I know what I want and what I don’t want.

I didn’t think anyone would come but they did. OH now gets 3,000 readers a day, almost half of Guido’s traffic before he decided to overthrow the State last week (he now gets 200,000 a day).

I wrote a post once calling Jackboot Jacqui a cunt. She is. And I said so. Because blogging allows me to.

If you look in our right hand bar, you will see a “feed-it” link that shows visitors to the Blog in real time. I was browsing this once and suddenly a weird visitor arrived.

Who the hell is ” Meltwater”?

I did some research and it turns out that Meltwater are a “media” company PAID by Government (bold emphasis by TheEye) to trawl blogs and read what we say about them. Yup. Reports are written, results are handed back to people like McBride. I spoke to Guido and he confirmed my suspicions.

So what are you waiting for? 3,000 people a day visit us here. Start your own blogs, call Jacqui a cunt and that’s 3000 more insults that Meltwater will have to report back to Jacqui.

Newspaper editors can be bought and won’t publish letters calling Jacqui a cunt. The BBC won’t allow you to call Jacqui a cunt on any TV show or phone in. You’ll be arrested and DNA’ed if you write it on a wall or shout it outside Parliament. All of the mechanisms to protect Jacqui are in place.

Except YOUR voice. Here. On a blog. I dont care if you use our comments section to do it, or do it on your own blog. But do it. They are paying people to listen to what you are saying, so let’s make sure they hear us loud and fucking clear.

60,000,000 of us
646 of them.

It costs not one penny to blog. Not one penny to leave a comment at Guidos, Dales, anywhere. And they ARE hearing your voice, even if they are not listening.

This is sound advice. Who are “Meltwater” to receive taxpayers cash to monitor blogs and send in monthy notes about how much Labour are hated? As a taxpayer is TheEye subsidising this? All canvassers have to do is knock on a few front doors or talk to rope salesmen and passing lamppost vendors. The voice of the people is growing and will not be silenced.
