Mega-Wealthy Mad George Martin hits out at the music and 
fashion industry bosses?

Another ex public school boy. While Sir George never had to 
scrape a living from the UK arts. The vast majority of creators 
have no opportunity, no govt direct investment, little actual 
protection (See Mihra web site in full) and he has done
nothing whatsoever to change that infamous system that
promotes "market forces" and a lack of creative education 
in music. 

His expensive and tokenist music programs on the subject
(BBC last year) used only his famous friends who are 
employed by the price fixing cartel. This is anohter
exclusive aspect of Sir George and NOT the way to do it. 

It stinks of his priviliged career and background. He also 
hammered John  Lennon (who never trusted him.) in 
public and praised Paul McCart for being a "proper musician"

Sir George Martin  has "entered " the anti drug equation. Sir 
George knows a lot about it? Very questionable. Sir George 
thinks that the music industry should be a target? In that he 
is correct, but NO ONE is going to listen.  Why? 

Because the music industry is so obviously also "into" 
many other nasty and subtle workings. Sir George does 
not mention  the neo-capitalist "we are proud of being 
b'stards" Music Publishers, nor does he mention the unfair 
/ culturally criminal workings of the music industry cartel. Nor 
indeed the Beatles silent partner who controled the Beatles 
by having a 51%  share since the very beginning. Nor does 
he nor the police themselves mention all the non-ongoing 
investigations into US and other Government involvement in 
large scale drug trafficing and manufacture.

The "world" of UK arts does'nt need an international organisation
(Mihra) to show it a path? Of course it does.

Right now "the world of large scale selling primitive music" is  
too stoned  on it's own profits and self aggrandizement, 
(assisted by the BBC and other doyens of the media 
establishment) to recognise itself in the mirror when
it gets up in the morning, bleary eyed and scratching, to 
check out the designer stubble of its drug taking 
administration.

So when do the local police raid the backstage gigs,
the "offices" of such as, Elton John and Jamiraque (sp) ? 
Their desks  are always filled with plenty of  "influencial" 
and naughty little goodies 

Gawd George, a neotokenist?

Mihra was founded during UN50 to advance and protect 
creators rights in a cultural market monopolised by the 
six member recording  / publishing Cartel. Mihra's roots 
are in music and anti-racism and it has called for a sports 
boycott of both Indonesia and Burma for the Sydney 2000 
Olympic Games.
