This is the first Write Royal Rant of the new year, fitting then. we sould start with what happened at the end of last year. Many of you will be aware of the Summer Solstice Celebrations at Stonehenge and some of the Winter Solstice and the importance of the Spiritual Observations and the Celebrations that take place.
English Heritage (Heretics as I call them) together with, Wiltshire Police and Council whom I would (and most probably will) claim (in court) are acting together as a cartel giving EH the Monopoly on Parking in and around the World Heritage site of Stonehenge over the Solstice period,
This, I will argue is in order to allow them to control the numbers and to charge the Pilgrims fees for the privilege of attending, motivated by control and revenue protection.
This is certainly not in the spirit of the law which states (Articles 9,10,11 & 14) of the Human Rights Act, UK Law, The European convention and our Treaty Obligations, which clearly state that we are allowed to attend and that the only restrictions to be placed upon our exercising of said rights are those necessary in a democratic society for National Security, which |I suggest they clearly are not.
So, any lawyers out there get in touch email me at k.pendragon@yahoo.co.uk
It looks like the only way to settle this is through the courts.
Some of 'us' made it to Stonehenge some did not, put off by the control mechanisms put in place to stop pilgrims arriving through the night and parking up on the Droves (by-ways Open to All Traffic) thay we have done since the nineteen eighties.
Open that is to all traffic, on a daily basis but not at times of Spiritual gatherings such as Solstice when Temporary Traffic Restrictions are now placed on them all.
Those that did make it, were rewarded by one of the clearest and most spectacular Winter Sunrises we have ever witnessed, I arrived by bus as I refuse to pay their Parking charges for what I have deemed a Pay to Pray policy.
After the spiritual celebrations of the Dawn of the New Sun, that signifies the return of the light, I steppped in, before we closed the circle to deliver a warning about the dangerous and slippery slope our leaders have embarked upon, placing yet more restrictions on our World wide Freedoms.
You can see for yourself what I said, and how it was received in the short clip, taken on a friends mobile, that I put up on YouTube,
