David Icke Forum has virtually died in the wake of The People's Voice debacle

There was a very short lived rumour a couple of days ago - it lasted all of about five minutes - that David Icke had quit The People's voice live on air in a kind of homage-cum-parody of Liz Wahl's dramatic outing as an American agent on Russia Today. The problem was that nobody could confirm or deny the rumour because nobody was watching and ultimately, noboday gave a shit.

But it prompted me to look in at the once souk like David Icke Forum to see if there was any hint of truth in what had been posted as a totally off-topic comment on this blog post:

I could almost hear the tumble weed. In the Today's News section, which used to be abuzz with discussion, argument and speculation, was populated by only a handful of posts made within the previous 24 hours.

So, what happened? Well, it's very unlikely that this decline happened in the aftermath of The People's Voice fiasco is a co-incidence. There were a lot of people who became disillusioned or had their fingers burned by David Icke and Sean Adl-Tabatabai's venture. But it was also a bit of an online pogrom - those who did not evacuate voluntarily were subjected to mass censorship and swathing bans. Those who remain active are very likely the David Icke inner circle, the sycophants the feeble minded.

Yet, David Icke chants the mantra that The People's Voice figures are rising despite adversity in his latest round of fleacing.

The great man has booked Wembley Arena again for this coming October - he might be as well to check the availability of a nearby phone box.

David Icke - You are so full of shit you don't know what shit smells like

I all but abandoned this blog because frankly, I have better things to do with my life than swat the flies on David Icke's bullshit but sometimes I just can't help myself. Like giving up smoking and having a cigarette after one too many beers, I'll probably regret it in the morning.

But seriously. Fucking seriously!

Having failed to keep a functioning television station running despite having raised over four times what he said he needed (he originally asked for £100k, got £300k and then got another £100k in another campaign), David Icke is asking his disciples for £250k to 'take The People's Voice to the next level'.

Considering that The People's Voice is currently dead in the water, what does Mr Icke mean by 'the next level'? Stretchered into a life raft?

But, hey, there is good news, guys! Because according to the David Icke Headlines page:

*Please note: Viewing figures show that The People’s Voice is gathering pace and popularity all the time – despite all the challenges.

Latest figures electronically recorded with 100% accuracy show that the TPV to-air screen had nearly 1.6 million views last month with this month promising to surpass that.

Taking all views together, the to-air page, YouTube and other sources The People’s Voice has so far had more than six million views since the station went to air only in late November.

The potential is fantastic, especially if we can gain access to two satellites which is now a strong possibility if we get the support.

Support TPV – the dream has only just begun.


Blimey! So, since the station effectively went off air and started showing only pregurgitated* shows, the viewing figures have increased by a staggering factor.

Why might this be? Well, the answer might lie in the fact that there is a TPV viewer embedded on every page on David Icke's website so whether you like it or not, as soon as you open a page on his site, you become a viewer. And if you are on a device with a data quota, you can loiter on that page indefinitely oblivious to the fact that your data quota is squirting away, largely because the sound on the TPV viewer is muted by default, so once you have started to scroll down the page, you will no longer be aware that the viewer is stealing your limited bandwidth.

David Icke, you have been known internationally as an unhinged conspiracy theorist, giving genuine conspiracy researchers a bad name but really, you are a phony. More recently, it has become clear that you are a con man and now you are visibly an absolute liar who screws people out of their internet usage in order to massage your viewing figures and ego.

You are a fucking despicable turd.
