Camden High St crack dealer working for MI5 and police opposite Elephants Head?

Elephants Head Customers. We are not fascists. | 16.02.2010 23:14 | History | Repression | Social Struggles

I drink in the Elephants Head. I have been privy to loud conversations about the presence of an Italian speaking drug dealer who has been standing on the corner of Jamestown Road and Camden High Street across the road from the Elephants Head for several years without so much as a tug. Ever. I moved in here in 2004. He was there. I moved out and back again. Two years on he was still there. In 2010...

He is still there. The gaunt black bloke with the beany hat. We can only assume that he works for the police. We might even assume that he works for the MI5 squad that have been watching the Somali community. He hates them enough yet slanders the customers of the Elephants Head, calling us fascists.
If he says that he is "keeping a firm eye on the place" then it's because he is still standing there across the road watching with his girlfriend Jo/Joanne or whatever her name is, where he has been for years watching imaginary fascists go in and out of the Elephants Head.
The Elephants Head customers are more than aware too that this Tin Man and Dorothy are not Camden Anarchists. You've been smoking too much of your own shit.

ring up first

OK. perhaps you need to call the police to be sure. When people say "the police arnt doing anything" - it can be because they are all moaning about it but not doing anything.

Years ago, there was one of the worst fires at a hotel on the Isle of man. I think it caused the largest loss of life in UK history. Amazingly, even through theres were 100s of people watching, the first call the emergency services got was from a tanker ship about 2 miles off the the shore. He was the FIRST person to report it, because everyone else assumed that someone else had rung up.

So, i'd ring the police first thing tommorrow morning. If they don't do anything then at least you know for sure and can then start thinking about MI5.

There is CCTV on C-Town High Street. Course they know he's there. He is working for them standing there like that for six years. Wakey wakey. Why him and his girlfriend Jo Jo are pretending to be the Camden Anarchists we're not sure...how bizarre. As for the slandering of the Elephants Head we're not sure, maybe they got fed up with him standing there watching them every night, or maybe they won't let him deal in there or use their bog as a stash place. Why they are threatning the Elephants Head with "You never know what's around the corner" while pretending to be the Camden Anarchists and so on we're not sure either. Maybe they won't pay the crackheads any protection money. They've tried that one before, it was something along the lines of ""You want supporters, we want money. Don't say that you are just one ship among many we will see you on Thursday,"" then they sent a picture of the bloke's mum with the message ""Bet your mum can't wait until Thursday"". Quite sad really. I don't think that the Elephants Head have really got anything to worry about but maybe they should call the police all the same. They are not a fascist pub and this Italian silly boy isn't one of the Camden Anarchists. Quite possible he's MI5 , if he can stand there like that on a street corner for 6 years without any hassle, maybe he is MI5. That's what they do, pretend to be lamp posts. Has he got a trilby hat or just the woolly one? Was the last post from him some kind of coded message that he's going to set fire to the Elephants Head? If so you might want to call the fire brigade as well when you phone the police and MI5, just in case.

Matey has been seen conversing with them too many times for them not to know he's there. Games up folks! Just in case, he's across the road from the Elephants Head outside the tourist shops, on Jamestown Road opposite the Oxford Arms. Little so and so.
We'll let you into a secret. He's not very nice. He calls Muslims "Greedy little bastards" and thinks they should all be thrown out of UK. What a one to talk about fascists! We think that you shouldn't come into the pub. Toilets are for customers use only and that applies to Jo too.
