Barbara Keeley

Barbara Keeley has been the UK Labour Party member of Parliament (MP) for Worsley and subsequently Worsley and Eccles South since 2005.
In February 2014 the MP described IGas Energy's potential fracking site at Barton Moss in Salford, Greater Manchester as 'manifestly unsuitable', with drilling there causing 'absolutely huge inconvenience' to residents and businesses.
Keeley also described the process of 'fracking' - exploring below the surface for possible shale gas reserves - as "controversial and untested". 
:Keeley, in an interview with Govtoday, insisted the scheme should "never have been brought into that part" of the region, adding: "If you think that there are meant to trillions of cubic metres of shale gas said to be in the north west, why start in an urban area with very poor access?"
:There are a "whole variety of reasons" why the location is "manifestly unsuitable", she says, including the narrow road incompatible with heavy goods vehicles, the proximity of farms and "precious" green belt land, the airport and motorway on either side, and the nearby secure care unit for children. "More than anything my constituents are living day in, day out with absolutely huge inconvenience," says Keeley – with falling house prices, rising insurance costs and potential health and environmental risks among the most pressing concerns.

Barbiturates

Barbiturates are sedatives, and a small dose makes people feel relaxed, sociable and good humoured. Larger doses commonly produce hostility and anxiety, as well as slurred speech, loss of coordination, and sleepiness – making users more prone to accidents. There is a high risk of overdose because the lethal dose is close to the "normal" dose level - 10 tablets may be fatal. Regular use leads to tolerance and physical dependence. Heavy users are at risk of bronchitis, pneumonia and hypothermiaDavid Batty & Lee Glendinning, Q & A Drug Classification, The Guardian, 12-August-2008, Accessed 22-January-2010.

Barclay Thompson

Gerald Barclay Thompson (born 15 February 1951) is a British businessman who founded the holographic products manufacturers AH Prismatic in the 1980s. LinkedIn, Barclay Thompson [Accessed 14 January 2009] He was the Managing Director and co-owner of the right-wing media monitoring company Newswatch Screengrab of Barclay Thompson's CV. Taken from <http://www.news-watch.co.uk/jubb.php> on 27 November 2009; Companies House, Newswatch UK Ltd Annual Returns, made up to 6 September 2008 until it was dissolved on 29 December 2008. Companies House, Newswatch UK Ltd Company Filing History [Accessed 14 January 2009] 
Shortly after Newswatch was founded, Thompson was quoted by the Guardian's Roy Greenslade as saying: 'Today's media has enjoyed an easy ride, and thinks it can get away with murder. But, from now on, it will have to think twice.' Roy Greenslade, 'Media bias is in the eye of the beholder', Guardian Media Blog, 10 October 2007
Newswatch's predecessor Minotaur Media Tracking produced a number of reports for the Eurosceptic think-tank Global Britain and the Centre for Policy Studies. The great majority of these reports alleged a bias in favour of EU integration in the UK media (particularly the BBC) and several alleged a broader bias against right-wing politics and the Conservative Party.

=="Dividend washing" aka tax avoidance planning==
In December 2011 an investigation by the Bureau of Investigative Journalism uncovered a £65.7bn market in European equity dividends whose "central" purpose is tax avoidance. The bureau revealed how some of London's biggest banks 'are behind a huge tax avoidance trade "cheating" European countries of hundreds of millions of euros a year' in taxes. Its analysis suggests that the loss – mainly to France, Germany and Italy – is up to £500m a year. The banks include Credit Suisse, Barclays Capital, Bank of America and Morgan Stanley. 
Against the backdrop of Prime Minister David Cameron's decision to wield Britain's EU veto to protect the Square Mile, former Liberal Democrat treasury spokesman Lord Oakeshott called for the Financial Services Authority (FSA), the Treasury and the European Commission 'to launch an investigation to ensure full disclosure of all dividend arbitrage transactions'. 
:"The FSA, Treasury and the European commission must work closely together to ensure the whole sequence of transactions of this type is fully disclosed to the British, German and French tax authorities. We must stamp out abusive artificial tax-dodging transactions together with our European partners, and stop pretending they are out to undermine the City of London as a responsible and pre-eminent financial centre."

==Meeting with fracking firm and lobbyists 2016==
Emails released under freedom of information rules reveal that lobbyists Lexington Communications and fracking firm Cuadrilla Resources met with council staff and also requested meetings with Barnsley's council leader in June 2016.
:A meeting took place on 16 December 2015 between Cuadrilla and BMBC offices at Cuadrilla’s request. The meeting request was made by Cuadrilla following the government’s publication of license blocks for oil and shale gas exploration. BMBC was identified in two of the licensed blocks within the Boland basin. Cuadrilla asked to meet with BMBC given their interest in the government licence. The meeting was concerned with a brief introduction of Cuadrilla to the Council and a discussion on the license process.
:Please find attached to the covering email, three email attachments between Lexington Communications, who are agents for Cuadrilla and the Council. The emails have been redacted under Regulation 12(3) of the Environmental Information Regulations 2004, to protect the identity of third party individuals.
