@brianogog

why do you care? you clearly don't care about the issues he raises, so why care about what he has to say about them?

Incidentally, if you think he's ''young'' you must be decrepit.

[Nimbology02]

@cleverfeller Why are so distraught that some doesn't like Mark Thomas? lool You should try and grow up.

[SUNIVAG]

@brianogog angry young wankers write coments on youtube...looks at brian with sympathy and some contempt at his pathetic comment.

[podfunk]

Mark's a national treasure. We need him now more than ever.

[killalmostwise]

@podfunk He can't do it on his own though. He needs us now more than ever too. So I guess in reality...we need us now more than ever.

Power to the peaceful (and mischievous). :)

[imydaking]

i find playing baseball strange in england...

[ienjoycoloring]

Wow. This guy just proves the fact that Brits have no clue what goes on at Menwith Hill.

[iamjurell]

its brilliant isn't it, us not getting told what happens in our own country. why don't you enlighten us?

[illuminatighost]

lol this our top secret sight if you get lost just follow the road signs lol

[Fanxabitastic]

Mark is a genius of comedic proportions.

[chowmein911]

this is real television

now we just have a box to control the sheep - people would rather watch britains got talent than learn about all of their civil liberties being flushed down the toilet

[tat0the0game0freak]

menwith ought to be closed down

[tat0the0game0freak]

Oh wow, I lived there for five years, so I'd say that I do know "wat the fuck they do there."

By the way, if you EVER wanted your opinion to be taken seriously you'd use some proper grammar because no one will ever take the ignorant seriously.

I always love how people give these oh so hostile responses. You gotta wonder about the people on youtube.

[iamjurell]

go on then, how many lives do they save?

[imydaking]

they save shit

[killalmostwise]

@flyhalf28 Then please do us the honour of filling us in. Exactly what do they do? How many lives do they save?

[flyhalf28]

@killalmostwise You obivousley don't know anything, if your dad worked there like mine does, then you would have a little bit of knowlage of what goes on, they do obv save lifes but I don't know how many, and I don't know what exactly what they do because they can't tell you.

[GhibliFan1]

@flyhalf28

The fact the goings on at Menwith Hill are not even accountable to MP's or European MP's should be a concern to everyone. Even the relatives of people who work there are told misinformation...i.e. a crock of shit...and yes, even father to son or husband to wife. It would be FAR more than your father's job or liberty is worth to divulge any meaningful information, even to his own family. So I'm afraid you only know what the rest of us know about the place....i.e. nothing.

[flyhalf28]

@GhibliFan1 No, the Goverment do no whats going on there, we as normall people do not need to know what goes on there because if the information gets out we could be in serious threat. The relatives don't need to know what goes on there in my opinion because we should trust what our father, mum, or anyone else do there. If you or anyone else had such a problem with it you should protest like some do, there are looking after our country and I know that for a fact, just trust me. :)

[justabec7]

@GhibliFan1 all the base does is comutnications, theres no bombs, they dont spy on everybody. i dont know why anybody would even be upset its there even if there was weapons. it would be protecting you not there to harm you.

[GhibliFan1]

@justabec7

Yes, because America is so trustworthy like that. They never do anything shady. Just keep drinking the Kool Aid, bud. Land of the free... fuck yeah!

[davidsmallplanet]

LOl all his mum cares about is he is smoking, she could not care about the No Such Agency the fact he is over there base in a balloon and they could send up a UAV to bring him down. LOL thats mums for you.

Good stuff I don't much like the thought of so much American power in the UK either. It does seem like we should be allowed to know about it.

I have seen another one that looks like this in Cornwall.

[deadletterbox24]

its on the coast just north of bude

[grahamkeithtodd]

and what makes you think your inocent sexygirlsamantha?

remember big brother arrived in 1990.. only a few years late then Orwell said...

[DonSimonUK]

Wonderful, very funny! It is a good job though that they don't have surface to air missiles there....Or....(or do they?!)

[sexygirlsamantha]

"spy on me and you" er...not me I'm not up to anything!

[mojo23mojo]

i'm not smoking mum i swear it's a balloon

you couldn't fucking script that!!!

[cpglerum]

This is great! But do you really think the russian threat is over?Juat last week they had an election and were telling people how to vote. Plus as buddy budy as USA and Englan are, could it be we have the same government and just dont know?

[ThisCanadian]

I'd be more worried about your cops pounding the bejayzuz out of peace protesters because some lackey in a regional office got 'word' from his corporate sponsor that "THERE WILL BE NO G-20 PROTESTS!! THERE WILL BE NO NATO PROTESTS!!! ...& out came the cops with their 'pain compliance toys' & their masks... "

& then people got scared... some hooligans made thousands look worse than the peaceful protesters they were...

& heads got cracked & gassed &

SO MUCH FOR CIVIL & HUMAN RIGHTS!

[martinevans123]

Seems the stakes have gone up a bit now that Des Brown has agreed to the US request for Menwith to be used as part of America's Ballistic Missile Defence (BMD) system.

That's not just tapping into phone calls any more, is it.

[4rkane]

"I'm not smoking mum, it's a balloon." Anyone else get the impression Mark got caught redhanded sometime in the past? lol

Absolutely classic.

[Chomskyno1]

Simply fantastic, thanks very much!
