Random Freemanesque Babblings II: Back to the Futile

To be fair to them, Action4Justice are a legit campaign group. There have been instances where, how shall be put it, some of the larger banks have been less than honest with their customers following fraud by employees so checking what they hold is not an unreasonable request.

However, I think they will live to regret their outreach to the FOTLer nutters in that group!

And you can normally request a DSAR by emailing an organisation's customer services for free, you shouldn't need a seminar to tell you that. If there have additional application or verification processes then they will get back to you. I've done it twice and it's pretty straightforward.

Curiouser and curiouser. If you google Action4Justice, first result is
https://action4justice.org/
which, as you say is a legitimate organisation supported by Oxfam, Greepeace, et al.

Note that the people touting on CTIU are .co.uk rather than .org and use a capital A. Looks like passing off to me...

From Northern Ireland comes a report of a case involving Mr McGee, whose mortgage lender, Amber Homeloans, decided to sell part of its mortgage book to Morag Finance.

https://www.bailii.org/nie/cases/NIHC/Ch/2020/9.html

Mr McGee didn't think they could do this because he doesn't consent, and anyway the house has been paid off because it's been transferred to a couple of "sentient men" in return for (allegedly) payment tendered by Mr McGee. He issued proceedings to stop the Land Registry from registering Morag Finance as proprietor of the legal charge in the register.

Obviously he's a litigant in person, but (presumably as a result of the way Mr McGee conducted himself at previous hearings) "Mr Boyd was appointed by Huddleston J to act as his McKenzie Friend."

Naturally, the outcome was a massive win for Mr McGee, with the Judge concluding "I find that the appellant's submissions that the document entitled Private Trust proved payment had been tendered and the property was in the hands of trustees, to be legally meaningless and devoid of any merit in law or fact and therefore I reject any submission that either the second respondent did not have the right to transfer ownership of the charge.

In all the circumstances I am satisfied the Deputy Registrar of Titles was correct in finding that the appellant had shown no valid cause for objection and I therefore confirm his decision to dismiss the Notice of Objection lodged by the appellant dated 17 January 2018.

I further dismiss the appellant's application dated 13 January 2020 seeking a hearing in private in relation to this matter on the basis that the case had already been heard on 18 December 2019. I also dismiss his application to amend his Defence and Counterclaim as the court has already adjudicated upon these matters. "

And, of course, all the costs will be added to his mortgage debt.

Oh dear. How sad. Never mind!

12.1.1 Transfer charge or otherwise dispose of the benefit of all or any part of the debt due from the borrower to the
lender and the mortgage and any other security held by the lender to any third party whether or not a building society or company associated with a building society without reference to or obtaining the consent of the borrower.”

[notorial dissent]

I would think the claim/introduction of "sentient men" have been enough to derail the claim, since they very obviously weren't if they thought that twaddle would work. As it most obviously didn't. Doesn't sound like it ended at all well for him(the borrower) either.

Sounds like someone borrowed their name for a bit of OPCA. I'm sure they won't mind.

Edit: looks like they might've borrowed Bash Design Studios' name too.

Not sure if this is FMOTL nonsense as it relates to 5g nonsense but I’ll put it here for now.

We’ve heard a lot recently about nutters conflating 5g with C-19 as if one begets or is entirely responsible for the other. This suits the anti 5g brigade as it promotes their cause and give them plenty of publicity to push their crackpot ideas.

The Idea has gained traction with fuckwits setting telephone masts on fire up and down the country including in areas where 5g has yet to be rolled out.

So it was interesting to read of Glastonbury Town Council’s 5g advisory committee promoting a snake oil gadget for £339.60 a pop (958.80 for three, a special deal.

A device costing more than £300 promises to protect your family from the supposed dangers of 5G, using ground-breaking quantum technology - but does it work? Of course not.

The rollout of the new 5G mobile networks began in the UK only last summer and has not yet reached outside urban areas.

Yet across the country there is already a cottage industry offering protection against the supposed negative health effects, even though they have been dismissed by regulators and mainstream scientists.

This is a BBC report which has some interesting images. the article continues;

The 5GBioShield was recommended by a member of Glastonbury Town Council's 5G Advisory Committee, which has called for an inquiry into 5G.

One of nine external members, Toby Hall, said: "We use this device and find it helpful," and provided a link to its website, which describes it as a USB key that "provides protection for your home and family, thanks to the wearable holographic nano-layer catalyser, which can be worn or placed near to a smartphone or any other electrical, radiation or EMF [electromagnetic field] emitting device".

"Through a process of quantum oscillation, the 5GBioShield USB key balances and re-harmonises the disturbing frequencies arising from the electric fog induced by devices, such as laptops, cordless phones, wi-fi, tablets, et cetera," it adds.

Quantum oscillation sounds like a throwaway line from a crappy Dr Who episode. There’s more;

Each of these USB keys costs £339.60 including VAT, though there is a special offer of three for £958.80.

But, at first sight, it seems to be just that - a USB key, with just 128MB of storage.

"So what's different between it and a virtually identical 'crystal' USB key available from various suppliers in Shenzhen, China, for around £5 per key?" asks Ken Munro, whose company, Pen Test Partners, specialises in taking apart consumer electronic products to spot security vulnerabilities.

And the answer appears to be a circular sticker.

Another bit of technobabble Concludes the article with the New-age claim that it’s a;

proprietary procedure that leads to relativistic time dilation and biological quantum entanglement at the DNA level".

Trading Standards are investigating.

Those are definitely words.

Good to see that some idiots still haven’t learned 5G is simply fifth generation mobile telecommunications.

The ER spectrum it sits in is 2.4 GHz - 39 GHz depending on band frequency; which is a larger wavelength than a light bulb (which into the infrared part of the spectrum and therefore more dangerous).

I hope these people are also aware that 5G and mobile networks are classed as a 2B carcinogenic along with those highly radioactive pickles and aleo Vera leafs.

Heads must be rolling at that council.

If memory serves it was at Glastonbury Town Hall that PLD won a Famous Victory.

They should have made them keep it and pay the bills nd upkeep on it. Would serve them right.

I see Crabbie’ group is full of conspiratards rejecting the coronavirus as “fake” and associated laws merely a trick for the unwary.

So thought one Texan (Texican?) in his 30s who thought it made up. Unfortunately to test his theory he knowingly invited someone round who ready did have the virus. Inevitably he himself caught the virus and he is the latest visitor to the morgue. As a client.

His dying words appear to be “I’ve made a mistake”.

The is the double black jack all conspiracy theorist use; “Its just fake news”.

You can’t win, it’s a cult of idiots and whatever the press reports, true or with a slight political twist, it’s always fake news.

A percentage of the frontline staff at NWAS had it and reported it wasn’t pleasant at all, even the ones who had it mild. My wife’s colleague was ill for 10 weeks and had two hospital visits, at the age of 34.

I can report what’s not fake news, Wild Horse brewery in Llandudno make some exceptional beers, I’ve had a few during the lockdown!

Not strictly a U.K. Common Lore nutter but there is something bizarre about this video from across the pond?

In this video we see the protagonist connecting Covid-19 to something or other?

Truly a bizarre watch with all the bingo buzzwords-
