Written on the 22nd June 2005

There's a lot of crap written about me in the media and a lot of parasites living off my name. There are unofficial websites and fan clubs and I don't see a penny from any of them. There are even scumbags who put my art on e-Bay without my permission - so called "friends". Believe me, some people out there would sell there very souls to be associated with my name.

I'd say to each one: "Would you dare do it if I wasn't in a hole?"

I'd also say: "If you're so far into my life - my world - then why don't you do something about it instead of trying to be a 'face' by living off me?"

Basically, they are parasites - gutless, spineless people. Frankly, I have more respect for the cockroaches that crawl under my door for crumbs.

The only official sites about me are freebronson.com, run by my friend Mal and charliebronson.co.uk, run by my friend Vardin Stephen. Apart from them two, the rest are imposters, fakes and anyone with any common sense should stay clear of them, especially the bronsonmania one with the fan club. It's a total piss take. It's portraying me as a gangster and a violent man when I am neither. I'm actually anti-crime, anti-violence and anti-drugs. Sites like that are just helping keep me inside. How can the Home Office ever take me seriously or free me when I'm forever portrayed as Britain's Most Dangerous Man?

I've not actually been violent for over five years now! It's only my years of rebelling against the system that have buried me in this hole. Sooner or later the prison H/Q and parole board wil be forced to place me back into society, as my incarceration is now actually illegal (especially keeping me in solitary for year after year with no form of progression).

It's these muggy websites and fan-clubs that help keep the Bronson myth growing!

Mal Vango and Vardin Stephen are true friends who fight for my freedom. My sites they work on are part of my support group and everything on them is FACT, real life and has my 100% backing.

The REAL man in the hole is not the same man that a lot of people seem to think he is:

• I'm 53 years old
• I've spent 31 years in a hole
• I've paid my punishment 100 times over
• I'm now a man who enjoys creating art, poetry and writing
• I'm the author of TEN published books
• I'm an award winning poet
• My art is now my Life

Does this sound like some psycho out-of-control nut? Do I deserve to be buried as I am?

It's time to free me so I can enjoy my life. I neither want to be a gangster or to be seen to be one.

It's a beautiful world out there and I want some of it. My son, Mike, is 33 years old. We've never even had a pint together. My Mother is 75; I owe it to her to get out. She has stood ny me all this time - don't she deserve to see my face?

What more can I lose? I've lost so much: family, friends, loved ones - all long buried. I don't want to lose any more!

My movie will be out next year ... that will open a lot of eyes. People will then realise how I became the man the public fears: the forever media assassinations, the lies. What other prisoner in the world has served so long in solitary? I'm not even a killer!

It's now time to hear the truth and build up a serious campaign to free me and blow away all them muggy people who continue to ride off my past. Anyone who has joined the Bronsonmania fan club or bought merchandise off the Bronsonmania website should demand to be refunded, as you have been ripped off and you're paying good money to a parasite!

"It's not me." The real Bronson is not into glamourising crime. I'm more into creativity and enjoying life.

Obviously I'm always gonna have to face up to what I once was and all that I did. No man can live my way of life and ever escape it ... but I'm trying and I should be encouraged and respected for wanting to be a new man.

It's not easy to let go and move on, but it's sure great to wipe out all the shit and to see people for what they truly are: arse wipes.

So, to all those maggots who seem to think it's OK to suck off me: expect some backlash. You are soon to be exposed. And to all my true supporters who want to see my face, why don't you email the unofficial websites and make your views known to them. Demand that they be shut down and allow me to have a fair chance of being released from this barbaric life sentence. Also, demand all the money that's made from my name to be returned to the people who were ripped off. Don't let it continue! It's not only immoral, it's illegal.

Just don't buy nothing any more from any site other than the two I've already mentioned. And remember this: My campaign is for Freedom not notoriety.

If you want to look at a gangster site then this isn't the one. If you decide to stick with me then I'll shake your hand at the party later, cos one thing is for sure: I'm gonna walk out. Never doubt it!

P.S. Write to your MPs. Bombard them with letters: Why is Charlie in a hole? Why can't he be let free? Get some answers.
