Originally an acronym for the status of inmates sent to Australia: 'Prisoner of Mother England'.
At first used by the English to describe Australians (as anyone Australian must, obviously, have come from prison), now in a strange reversal used by Australians to designate anyone from England.

The government ones I don't mind so much, it is the corporate ones that try to demonize the competition
In early April, 1997 the Liberal government of Jean Chrétien, for one of the few times since its election in 1993, acted to "err", as the government put it, on the side of human health and the environment. Invoking its trade powers, Parliament passed a law restricting the import and interprovincial transport of the neuro-toxic MMT (methylcyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl), a gasoline additive that contains the heavy metal, manganese.
Within days, the US multinational Ethyl Corp., the sole supplier of MMT in Canada, invoked the "expropriation" clause (article 1110) of the investment chapter of NAFTA to sue the government for $350 million Canadian for damages and lost income. With the NAFTA agreement working exactly as it was designed to, the pressure of significant potential public liability mounted on the federal government and on July 20th, 1998 it backed down, settling out of court before the NAFTA arbitral panel could rule.
In a final cruel irony the $13 million US ($19.5 million Canadian) compensation payment to Ethyl for lost profits and legal costs exceeds the total 1998 Environment Canada budget for enforcement and compliance programmes ($16.9 million Canadian). The government will also issue a statement to the effect that the manganese-based additive is neither an environmental nor a health risk which, or course, Ethyl will use to market MMT internationally.

Postloop will take on almost anybody, but they only pay pennies per post and their forum selection is quite weak. Maybe you can use that as a start for a better shilling position....kind of like A minor league posting group.

The brigade will be responsible for what is described as non-lethal warfare. Both the Israeli and US army already engage heavily in psychological operations.
Otherwise known as f#ing with peoples minds, man.
And people think the Nazis lost the war. Seriously, take away the national and symbolic specifics and what are you left with?
What do we have now? Anyway...
