    I know your reality and mine too, is the real deal. It seems some can't tell the difference. It's a mad world we live in!

    I am not too sure that we live in the same world.

    I notice the location of today's "Seetec- A UnitedPeople Investigation Meeting" is still a mystery.


    After a deep investigation lasting over 4 years and 3,000+ posts in the Reality TV forum on topics such as Britain's Got Talent and The X-Factor Jeff has decided that reality TV is nonsense and music of today is manufactured rubbish.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,748 ✭✭✭Pelvis Parsley


    Surely not another overhyped disappointment to his legions of fans and followers!

    And our Jeff is such a dependable fellow, who always says what he means and does what he says.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,703 ✭✭✭whippet


    I see he is bemoaning the fact that he hasn't got confirmation of a free school bus place for his eldest yet .. despite living in the middle of drogheda and within a 10 minute walk to most school.

    Any volunteers? I assume those rooms are not free to rent. A worthwhile expense I'm sure for a father of 6 on welfare.

    Surely an event of that importance should be Webcast so people outside Dublin can also get involved.

    I guess the National Convention Centre was already booked out for that day, pity.

    It looks like he used a wedding invite template.
    But in general it's well put together, nice fonts, grammatically fine (the single quote after Sept' is unexpectedly accurate) and only drifts into Ruddlish in the middle portion.
    A definite improvement.

    I don't understand the owls in each corner though.

    He's moved on from butchering the grammar, but the syntax remains as Ruddish as ever :D
    A revealing, sometimes shocking, insight into a forming future issue. One that will evolve into a later state inquiry or investigation.

    He has spent €268 on bottled water last year and has kept the receipts ... because he is bong poisoned by the water in the taps ... probably why he sent the wife and baby off to get water from the public main during the drogheda water crisis


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 10,580 Mod ✭✭✭✭humberklog


    In the latest update re the meeting about Seetec, Jeff goes on to say that "physical and mental assaults have been carried out by individuals within this private company".
    Surely a physical assault is a matter for the Gardai?

    I'd say the Seetec staff have some laugh at the antics of this nutter.

    He sometimes exaggerates but mostly it's just fantasy and outright lies.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 10,580 Mod ✭✭✭✭humberklog


    New promotional post about "Revelation Day, 23rd September."

    It bangs on about lies, weird stuff and lies,lies and more lies by those elected.

    He then says- "Book a free place today- tickets are going fast!".
    I'm willing to bet that's a lie.

    Also- Alistair E. Smith appears to have disappeared off the scene over the last few months.

    Currently sunning myself in abroad. I was looking forward to parking myself up in a teverna and tuning into the live stream but that's not happening. I'll have to go with the slow drip feed of edited "highlights" over the next few weeks.

    I'd say the lino is being worn out in Chez Rudd with him practising his speech.

    don't be holding your breath .. like all his previous big launches this one will disappear and never be mentioned again !

    So did anyone go to this? Either as a spy for boards or out of genuine interest

    As much as I'd loved to have gone, I decided to spend time with my family as I don't get much time with them during the week.
    Because, like most people, I work!


    Actually I'd love to know if anyone from Seetec went!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,130 ✭✭✭eldamo


    The masses are turning on him already!
    I mean, how would the community center massage his ego?
    Also, the community center might spot him sneaking into one of their conference rooms.

    Some strange individual posted that he shouldn't be having his meeting in the Ballsbridge Hotel, it should be in a community centre and its no wonder so many are homeless with the waste of money.
    In fairness I'd defend him here - looks a bit more professional to have meetings in a known name venue rather than upstairs in a boozer or a parish hall. If he's going to pour his (our) money into ventures then might as well spend an extra 10 bob on giving it a bit of a sheen.
    Rates for conf rooms are probably reasonable enough at weekends anyway, far less than what they'd be Mon-Fri.

    He was busy organising the room .. fizzy water to the left ... still water to the right ... sucky sweets 5 between two ... UP mugs and pens shared between two ... flat out and no time for social media


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,371 ✭✭✭TheAnalyst_


    Don't worry he has paid for it out of his own pocket. That's the heating budget gone so hopefully it will be a mild winter for his 6 kids.

    For those that couldn't make it he's kindly released a 107 page report. The fact that he has time to do this essentially justifies the existence of Seetec.

    This crap has been edited??
    I already have a headache. :pac:

    A helpful presentation given in The Ballsbridge Hotel, 23rd 2017.

    Contained within are the greater steps which neither of the JobPath private companies is willing to greater share. If they had their way, you would have once chance at appealing - one postal address or one email address to send your single appeal to. ...Then it would be either ignored, lost or rejected. Rarely if ever, accepted and allowed to stand.

    UnitedPeople is happy to give to you the more useful clear steps in opposing the JobPath conditions which is being forced up on everyone unemployed.

    Please do download - and do your fellow citizen a favour, share as much as possible. Thank you.

    The unemployed of Ireland should feel lucky that they have someone like Jeff to stand up for them and do whatever possible to prevent them from being assisted in finding jobs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 637 ✭✭✭Rabbo


    He is targeting a rather small voter base with unemployment currently at about 6%.

    Perhaps the political strategists at UP might want to reconsider their approach so that it reflects the needs of the majority rather than the select few

    Reflects everyone he knows.... Oh....

    To be honest I would love to rig a town council election for him. Could you imagine him marching in day one in full pomp only to realise that he had to work with others to force through his agenda.

    Would he even last a day before resigning in disgust and self publishing an expose of the corruption inherent in the Dundalk/Drogheda (where's he from again?) Town council?

    There are no town councils anymore, and they're unlikely to come back while FG are the main party.

    As if I need any more proof that I live in a difference universe to Jeff .. this morning as a follow up to his hugely successful day out yesterday he posts a screen grab of an article from the Irish edition of the Time.

    He prefaces the article suggesting that it is more evidence of state sponsored bullying and Orwellian doublespeak. It is thug tactics against those who are at their most vulnerable .. and a national disgrace.

    Now .. lets see the highlights from the article that he has posted:

    - The government is set to target jobless families under its latest initiative to reduce unemployment
    - The new pilot scheme families with two or more jobless members will be dealt with as a unit
    - couples would be invited to attend an interview with a caseworker to develop career progression plans with a view to ensuring people become ‘more work-ready’ and gain employment
    - The government will commit to reducing the number of jobless household to 13% or lower by 2020

    To the normal person in society this all seems reasonable .. yet Jeff thinks this is crazy … a government who wants to help people break out of the culture of joblessness and yet Jeff believes they should be stopped.

    He obviously feels that it should be a persons choice to depend solely on social welfare rather than work to support your own lifestyle and he wants to campaign for a greater distribution of the wealth to him and his peers who choose unemployment.

    By his own indirect admissions he hasn’t looked for work in years … he hasn’t time to work with all the time he spends online and writing nonsense.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,473 ✭✭✭✭Hotblack Desiato


    Talk about an unambitious target! 13% of households still being jobless is a frighteningly high number.

    Got through about 10 minutes.

    First off at least he went through with the charade. He seems to have had a lot of fun messing with PowerPoint anyway.

    No idea how many were there but at least 5 individuals anyway and the (not) thunderous applause at the end doesn't suggest there were many more.

    Pity he has comments disabled but at least the like/dislike function is there to stroke his ego

    Apparently UP got reports of a job fair in navan ... these dens of indecency and temptation should be shut down and the facilitators charged with reckless endangerment.

    I highlight the fact that in no way did anyone from UnitedPeople attend or take part in any of the events on the day. UP are maintaining their long held stance against any job creation activities

    There it is, while bizarrely drawing a comparison with Venezuela, Catalonia and UP's fight against JobPath/Seetec Jeff Rudd popped this doozy of a post up on UP's FB page yesterday.
    The bit in bold is nothing less than a Dosser's Charter.
    Jeff's butt hurt at being pressurised into engaging with the relevant bodies that seek to give people like Jeff useful guidance and a toe up the hole into gainful employment.
    But UP seek the right for all citizens to be able to live a life of leisure and freedom by spending nurses taxes, corpo workers taxes, hotel staff taxes, fishermen's taxes, bus driver's taxes, farm labourer's taxes etc.

    Viva le revolution!




    In case you haven't noticed, UnitedPeople has conducted a year and a half investigation into "JobPath" (via Seetec and Turas Nua).
    .
    We have also been repeatedly concerned about events going on in Venezuela and Catalonia.
    .
    You might not think the former is related to the later two mentioned - but fundamentally, they are - and they all underscore what UnitedPeople is about.
    .
    Events in the likes of Venezuela and Catalonia (and other places) are centred around a people's right to free choice, free peaceful expression, the right to chose a way of life that is based on their unique situation and the upholding of basic rights of decency, respect and more.
    .
    Terrible still ongoing events and abuses that happening because of the forced JobPath down on people, also is deeply affecting peoples fundamental rights to choose, how they can live their lives and to whom they wish to be connected with or contracted with.

    .
    ...In other words, in all situations - it's about fundamental rights of an individual, of a nation, of any group in society that just wishes to advance through peaceful process.
    .
    ...And that in a nutshell is at the heart of UnitedPeople. We will continue to highlight where people anywhere, are being exploited, abused, have their rights denied and more - and then we will peacefully seek a better way for things to improve.
    .
    If you like that idea, please do support us and help in any way you can. Thank you.

    In solidarity with their friends in Catalonia and Venezuela United People are having their own referendum in a couple of weeks on the addition of the Neurotoxin (sic) fluoride being added to water.

    I don’t think this is a campaign being spear headed by Jeff - Elected Leader and Founder but by Alastair - National Organisator

    Using all their Facebook and random website research they are putting a vote to the people in the most one sided biased election ever. A total of 7 people have showed an interest on Facebook .. so barring someone abstaining Jeff might not need to use a casting vote.

    I wonder will the guards from Dundalk or Ardee be asked to move on Drogheda to break up the ballot stations.

    I’ll keep the dial on LMFM for updates. But if the government refuses to abide by Jeff’s referendum the whole north east may be in chaos and the general strike that follows might mean I’ll have to relocate to east Meath to get uncensored internet back

    Surely he should strike a symbolic blow against these odious organisations. Make a stand and refuse the accept the oppressors coin. That would show them!

    It would demonstrate that the United People would support their own, as a united people should. He would then be free to maintain the fight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,473 ✭✭✭✭Hotblack Desiato


    Surely a rhetorical question if ever there was one, but do the likes of Jeffery not have the wit to realise that the greater the extent of their piss-taking on the taxpayers' coin, the greater the extent of the eventual taxpayers' backlash? Thatcher couldn't have happened without the closed shop, Spanish practices, the miners trying to dictate government policy, and all the other abuses in the 70s when the unions had the upper hand. Newton's third law - to every action there is an equal and opposite reaction - the harder the likes of him lash out the harder he can expect everyone else to lash back and it's only a matter of time.
