First hour: news review including Residents’ Parking update with Ashley’s new Green Councillor Rob Telford.  Public transport dilemmas, can local councillors really change things? Green Party vision for Bristol. PMQs David Cameron and Ed Miliband on the latest employment figures which are up but we are sceptical about that in the studio – how exactly are today’s employment figures massaged? Unemployed put on to ‘Working Tax Credits’ even though they are not properly self-employed, Work Programme providers getting £15,ooo for every long term unemployed person removed from the figures in this way. Marina Morris: brighter pupils are being let down by our school system. Whistleblower leaks massive illegal NSA PRISM surveillance system – not much reassurance when Foreign Secretary William Hague assures us it’s all legal – intelligence sharing agreements such as UK/USA – Italian Supreme Court judge Ferdinando Imposimato’s evidence Bilderberg of conducting terrorist attacks in Italy. Conservative MP Liam Fox’s defamation case concerning the Werritty affair which lost him his job as Defence Secretary. Fox is accused of trying to manufacture a case to attack Iran with Adam Werritty who, it has been suggested by former Uzbekistan Ambassador & blogger Craig Murray, was an Israeli Mossad agent pretending to be a UK government official with assistance from North Somerset MP Liam Fox. Privatising defence procurement – doesn’t work.  The carriage works on Stokes Croft, Bristol, through compulsory purchase, is becoming flats in 2015.

Dangers of GM foods as a study discovers one third of pigs with deformed uterus and stomachs after eating GM animal feed. This week’s first ever Commons debate about the annual Bilderberg Conference, speeches by Labour MP Dennis Skinner, Conservative MP John Redwood and Labour MP Tom Watson points out that Bilderberg Steering Committee member and Cabinet Minister Without Portfolio Ken Clarke has failed to declare his interests in the Parliamentary Register, he says he ‘forgot’. Discussion of UK government announcements this week which directly affect the profits of companies represented in this secret Bilderberg meeting. MoD Procurement privatisation directly benefits Tomas Enders of EADS and Sherard Cowper-Coles of BAe Systems. GM Foods to be approved for human consumption which benefits Syngenta, secretly meeting with Prime Minister and Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne and the rest. Justice Secretary Chris Grayling plus former Justice Secretary & Bilderberg Steering Committee member Ken Clarke’s proposed changes to Britain’s Legal Aid programme, it includes defendants not being able to choose a lawyer, instead being allocated a G4S or Eddie Stobart solicitor. Bristol Barrister Michael Fitton opposes proposed changes and has been at the Justice Select Committee this week and reports back. Marina Morris asks you which you’d choose in her voxpop.

APOLOGIES: THE BCFM ‘LISTEN AGAIN’ FACILITY HAS ONCE MORE FAILED TO DELIVER OUR SHOW TO YOU – IT WAS SUCCESSFULLY UPLOADED HERE HOWEVER BY 9PM 😉

For all the shows back to Easter 2009 visit the Friday Drivetime archive page.

First hour: news review with Labour Councillor for Bedminster and Cabinet member for Transport Mark Bradshaw (who turns up late at 5.30pm).  Labours’ new policies of capping benefits and means testing pensioners discussed. Osborne and Balls attending the secret Bilderberg meeting so are we just getting Bilderberg economic policy? NHS 111 out of hours service, it’s failings, revolving doors and cronyism of this private health care. ASDA supermarket gives surplus food stock to charities but is out of date food edible? Are we going back to Victorian Britain? Sales of private jets up by almost half in Britain – Martin Summers says the idea that ‘we’re all in this together’ is ridiculous  PMQs – Ed Milliband asks Cameron about the A & E crisis blaming it on the closure of NHS Walk-In Centres across the country. Clip of Cressida Dick, who supervised the accidental murder of Jean Charles De Menezes, from the Met Police, discussing MI5 and the Woolwich murder at the Home Affairs Select committee chaired by Keith Vaz.  Mark Bradshaw discusses residents parking in Bristol RPZ, what is the real timetable? Mark implies that all is up for grabs but cannot promise we will get any information if we go to the Council House, most info it seems is on the Council website. Accusations that ‘consultation’ meetings are not being properly advertised widely enough or enough in advance. Marina Morris looks at equality and happiness and we discuss the book ‘The Spirit Level’ again.

Second hour: Tory Kenneth ‘Bilderberger’ Clarke and Tory Justice Secretary Chris Grayling’s attempt to change the terms of Legal Aid have brought Barristers out on the streets for the first time in British history. We ask chief barrister at Albion Chambers Michael Fitton QC if he will take the government to court over the proposals and why he and his colleagues feel so strongly. The NATO zone elite Bilderberg conference is taking place in Watford with sole arbiter of the code of Parliamentary standards Tory Prime Minister David Cameron diving in too how can we ever trust him to judge cases of MPs’ accountability again? We go back to Arnhem in 1944 to meet two men who were later to chair the Bilderberg meetings Captain Peter Carrington and Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands. Former Captain in the 82nd Airborne Division T. Moffatt Burriss takes up the story. We look at the escape of Hitler’s personal secretary Martin Bormann in 1945 and CBS news correspondant Paul Manning’s book Martin Bormann Nazi In Exile and ask did Bormann take the loot from WW2 and use it to set up a financial power network where swastikas came off and suits went on to members of the SS and other Nazi sympathisers? Manning’s book certainly has the evidence. Idris Francis discusses on the phone his ideas about the EU and the ‘Fourth Reich’ recounting a story his Uncle told him that a German officer under his guard turned to him, a Major at the time, and said ‘you have beaten us twice now but the third time we will win and you won’t know anything about it until it’s all over’.

First hour: News review with the newly elected Labour Councillor for St George East Steve Pearce. Ministers refuse to agree to cuts so Chancellor George Osborne still needs to tackle £8bn black hole after treasury agrees 10% spending cuts with seven Government departments. Voxpop on Mervyn King’s request that we ‘stop bashing the bankers’. Also former Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney is about to start his new job as Bank of England Governor. He’s a Bilderberg group member so have people heard of Bilderberg and do they think he’ll be any better at the job? Revolving Doors: Failed former HMRC boss David Hartnett given job at one of the ‘Big Four’ auditing firms Deloitte. But could the job be considered as bribery for agreeing several dubious ‘over lunch’ sweetheart deals with Goldman Sachs, Vodafone etc. letting them off paying millions of pounds in tax? Questions for KPMG over audit of troubled Co-op Bank after accountancy firm failed to spot impending financial turbulence. BBC lose legal takedown attempt against my YouTube video of this show a month ago which criticised BBC Radio Bristol for using KPMG to deliver their ‘Business News’. That 7:30am Breakfast show slot has now been renamed ‘Money Matters’ but the point remains why would BBC managers or listeners trust KPMG? Bristol police stop EDL ‘Help For Heroes fundraiser’ march in St. George heading for Muslim parts of Bristol last Saturday night naming those arrested, pleading guilty and those charged. Revealed: The true size of the British jobs gap. The Resolution Foundation has performed an analysis of the total adult employment rate – which reflects the increase in the size of the population and the growth of the available workforce – and found that there remains a “jobs gap” of 930,000. The Joseph Rowntree Foundation finds one-third of Britons are too poor to ‘join in with society’ Many on lowest incomes cannot buy consumer goods, visit the cinema or go on holiday. Ailing Great Western rail franchisee & Bristol bus operator First Group’s chairman Martin Gilbert leaves as the struggling transport group tapped investors for £615m to cut a massive £2bn debt and share price falls 30% as profits slump.

Second hour: South West Regional Secretary of the Fire Brigades’ Union (FBU), Phil Jordan, warns there is no way to sugar coat it, people will die in fires if proposed Coalition government cuts are implemented. He is a Gloucestershire fire-fighter and explains that even a few seconds extra getting to a fire can mean it spreads, making it impossible to tackle, or forcing terrible choices between saving lives and getting at the heart of the fire; Steve Timmins joins us from ‘Protect Our NHS’, he was at this week’s People’s Assembly against austerity meeting at the Malcolm X Centre in Bristol on Wednesday evening, He explains what the health lobby and Coalition government are doing to the NHS and looks forward to a National Assembly on Saturday 22nd June. Drones… Barack Obama makes a bad ‘joke’ to the Washington Press pack about killing his critics with a Predator Drone, ‘You won’t see it coming.’ he says. Just like the world’s first ballistic missile, the Nazi V2 in World War II (see above), no one killed by a V2 saw or heard it coming either. Chris Cole from Drone wars UK spoke in Frome this week, two US universities found drones kill only one ‘terror suspect’ for every fifty innocent civilians, tremendous profits are being made though out of drone murders by UK, US and Israeli firms, also by Lockheed Martin who sell their £50,000 each Hellfire assassination missiles to the US, UK & Israeli military; EU and William Hague agree to allow arms to be supplied to the Syrian terrorist networks. A security operation in Homs reveals Mossad, CIA and Blackwater are involved in the military violence in this part of Syria. President Assad of Syria does not want to end up murdered like Colonel Gaddafi so has threatened to attack Israel if the Israelis strike Syria again. Vladimir Putin keeps US Secretary of State  John Kerry waiting for three hours because Kerry refuses to discuss the global collapse in the bee population. Bilderberg 2013 in Watford linked to Middle Eastern wars, Bilderberg conference takes place in Watford next week but was chaired for first 20 years by former SS Officer Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands; many too believe Bilderberg is linked with a post-war secret ‘Fourth Reich’ financial power network, set up by Hitler’s deputy Martin Bormann, which uses killer corporations like Nazis used Panzer Divisions to take over markets, countries and territory. As spelled out in Paul Manning’s book ‘Martin Bormann, Nazi In Exile’ which is available free online as a PDF file or as a hardback book for over £150.
