News Flash!

Dear committed brothers and sisters of the rEvolution!

The Ecotort Theatre is proud to announce that it has secured funding to make a 20 minute film of its theatrical script “NEWSFLASH !"

We will be rehearsing and shooting it on the 14th and 15th of June in Dalston.

Ecotort Theatre has linked up with the Passing Clouds Arts Centre in Dalston, who will be assisting with the production, and has assembled a first-rate production team and cast.

However, we still need some additional hands and help. Having spoken to many of you in the past about the project, I know there is a great amount of support for it and would love to have that energy involved.

In particular, we need lots of extras for the crowd scene, and a couple of speaking parts may still be up for grabs

Also, anyone with a 3chip dv camera who is free on the 14th and 15th of July, we need more cameras, as we will be shooting a theatre production and we need at least five cameras so as to get all the shots covered . . .

Please read a synopsis of the film below, and if you are interested in reading the full script, email me at [ecotort at gn.apc.org] with "EcoTort film script" in the subject line.

The aim of this project is to raise levels of consciousness and empower people in as wide an audience as possible, by illustrating that we have the Law on our side in the battle to change the criminal behaviour of the "powers that be", which is destroying the planet we all have to live upon. To show that through a common understanding and discussion of the True Law, change is really possible.

http://www.ecotort.gn.apc.org/scandalous.htm

SYNOPSIS:
" NEWS FLASH is a short, highly empowering piece of theatre about a dissillusioned tree-surgeon who is pushed to the limits of his reason after being forced to take a job as a lumberjack, cutting down the very trees he loves in order to provide for his family.

One day, he decides he can’t take it any more and quits the job, instead heading off to an interview for a new job as an organic herdsman.

However, on the way to the interview, an unexpected accident results in the Lumberjack getting arrested and taken to the local police-station.

His dealings with the police and solicitors give him a platform to express his discontent with the status quo, and to stipulate a lawful solution, which in turn sparks a global Permaculture rEvolution for the environment . . . ! ”


If you have any questions or suggestions, please email or call me (Nick) on 07932 734 817

Many thanks for your support.

I am recovering from a broken leg (yes, really!).
Events, rehearsals, etc in the EcoTort Theatre in Hackney are resuming now...
Call 07787732739
I have a 15 minute script being re-worked, ask for a copy, it's very radical and empowering, for the environment....
My venue is squatted, been here for 2 1/2 years now, don't know how much longer, so best to make the most of it while it's here!


unaccountable taxation by banks

I am documenting this, amonst other things....

are you interested in collaborating?


ROUGHLY :-
1) one third of a person's wages goes to pay the mortgage,
2) one third is tax,
3) and the remaining third you get to spend...




1) Approximate Proportion of Monthly Mortgage or Rent Payments which is Interest Paid to the Banks

if you borrow, say £100,000 @ 7.5%
over 40 years as a mortgage
to buy a house,
you will have to pay back roughly £300,000 with interest....

this means that
roughly two thirds
of the third of your wages
which is paying the mortgage
is paying interest on that loan.



2) Approximate Proportion of Tax which is Interest on the National Debt Paid to the Banks.

the bank of England is a private company.
the government has granted a license
to the bank of England to print money.
the government borrows money from the bank of England,
the government pays interest on that loan.
that interest is paid out of the third of your wages which is paying tax to the government.



3) Approximate Proportion of Interest paid to the Banks out of the Price of any Product Bought.

if you buy (for example) a china cup in a shop:-

a) someone has borrowed money from a bank
to set up a quarry
to extract the china clay
from the earth:
they are paying interest to the bank on that loan

b) someone has borrowed money from a bank
to buy a lorry
to transport the china clay
to the factory
which makes the cups:
they are paying interest to the bank on that loan

c) someone has borrowed money from a bank
to set up the factory
which makes the cups:
they are paying interest to the bank on that loan

d) someone has borrowed money from a bank
to buy a lorry
to transport the cups to the wholesaler:
they are paying interest to the bank on that loan

e) someone has borrowed money from a bank
to set up the wholesale business:
they are paying interest to the bank on that loan

f) someone has borrowed money from a bank
to buy a lorry
to transport the cups to the retailer:
they are paying interest to the bank on that loan

g) someone has borrowed money from a bank
to set up the retail business:
they are paying interest to the bank on that loan

h) all of those people from a) to g) above...
are paying interest to the bank on their mortgages.

all these interest payments to the banks
are coming out
of the purchase price
of the china cup....

if we add all these interest payments together
we find
that
on average
conservatively speaking
50% of the price
of ANY item we buy
is interest
being paid to the banks.







HENCE:

1) one third of a person's wages goes to pay the mortgage
(ABOUT 75% OF YOUR MORTGAGE THIRD IS PAYING INTEREST TO THE BANKERS)
2) one third is tax
(SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 10-20% OF YOUR TAX THIRD IS PAYING INTEREST TO THE BANKERS)
3) and the remaining third you get to spend...
(ON AVERAGE, ROUGHLY 50% OF THE PRICE OF ANY MONEY YOU SPEND FROM YOUR SPENDING THIRD IS PAYING INTEREST TO THE BANKS)

ADDING 1) , 2) , AND 3) TOGETHER:
WE FIND THAT WELL OVER HALF OF EVERYONE'S WAGES IS PAYING INTEREST ON LOANS TO THE BANKERS….

IF WE SIMPLY ABOLISH USURY, WE CAN WORK HALF THE HOURS WITH THE SAME WAGES IN OUR POCKET, DO HALF THE DAMAGE TO THE ENVIRONMENT IN OUR EMPLOYMENT,

AND SPEND TWICE AS MUCH TIME WITH OUR FAMILIES OR IN THE PUB, OR WATCHING TELLY, COOKING BEAUTIFUL MEALS, OR GOING OUT TO THE COUNTRYSIDE,…. (+:
