Rape Truth and Lies Posted December 18th 2019

“The number of people prosecuted for rape in England and Wales has slumped to an all-time low, despite record volumes of cases being reported to police, new figures show.

The annual Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) report from the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) shows there were just 1,925 convictions for rape during the financial year 2018-19, down from 2,635 in the previous 12 months – a drop of 26.9%.

This is despite the number of rape claims dealt with annually by police in England and Wales rising from 35,847 to 57,882 during the last four years. It means around 3.3% of all reported rapes end in a conviction.

When records were first compiled in its current format – in 2007/8 – 2,201 rape cases resulted in a conviction, according to the BBC.

The latest figures have dropped below the lowest figure for any year since those records were compiled, the broadcaster reported.

Director of Public Prosecutions Max Hill has announced independent CPS watchdog – Her Majesty’s Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate (HMCPSI) – will hold a review of rape charging decisions to increase accountability and reassure victims of sexual offences.”

Editorial Comment

Many years ago there was a blase attitude to rape. The definition was simple, forced sexual intercourse on the part of the male. The ‘News of the World’revelled in reporting these crimes in gory detail, naming the victims.

Invariably they were‘night out’ drunken street crimes.  Women were always asked what they were wearing.  Reports were so salacious the newspaper earned the name ‘The News of the Screws’

In the 1980s,’Thames Valley Police’ jumped at the chance of some free publicity as subject of a Thames Television documentary which was meant to showcase their ‘Starsky and Hutch’ fantasy image.

The plan backfired, with the force being shown as a Neanderthal led and operated inefficient body of morons, led by an over promoted idiot.  The macho canteen culture was rife and ridiculous.

Thames Valley Police became notorious for its very bad attitude to rape victims.  In this connection a working class young prostitute alleged rape. In front of TV cameras and several male officers, she was asked by a youngish Scots CID officer whether the man came inside her. Forensic evidence was then vital, but should have been confined to a medical report, not exposed by a police pervert.

There was a backlash.  Superficial reforms were made.  Interviews with victims and suspects would now be recorded- as I know from experience, this does not stop the police from judicious and scandalous editing to support their narrow minded prejudices.

So we have the situation today.  It is much complicated by the Tony Blair Government of lawyers pandering to the female vote, broadening the definition of rape to any form of unwanted sexual contact- including words and touching.  Added to this, there is no Statute of Limitations, which means an alleged victim can come forward as many years after as she likes.Because she is a woman, there can be no issue or suspicion of malice aforethought.   

A few years ago, a man completed 17 years in prison for a rape- actually making a girl masturbate him on a dark city alleyway.  West Mercia Police are notorious for withholding and faking evidence- I am one of their victims.  The forensic evidence proved the man innocent so the police withheld it because the man was poorly educated Scots working class.  When he was finally released, old, jobless and tainted, they gave him £47, telling him it was up to him to prove his innocence. Among other cases of West Mercia corruption, they lied to jail a young man of below average intelligence for the famous graveyard murder in Kidderminster, in the 1970s.

Men need to take note, the feminists want all those alleged to have committed rape to be named, shamed and assumed guilty until the court convicts them.  This is no longer a matter of street crime.  Wives and girlfriends can come forward whenever they like, so take care with what feminists call your ‘toxic masculinity’ Get a contract, witnesses, and possibly video camera set up before agreeing to sex.  Trouble is, sex doesn’t even need to happen because a woman’s tears say more than real evidence ever could.  

Officially women never lie.  The CPS will be very brave, risking high paid careers if they argue with that premise. Drink is no excuse for a man, but it is for a woman. Men have even faced prosecution for brushing past women in public spaced. Of course it’s not so dangerous if you are rich and powerful, as the Epstein affair denotes.  But most of us are not. So much for equality. Sensible women should at least fear for their sons, assuming they love them more than they love themselves. Robert Cook

Cliches R’ Us Posted December 17th 2019

Cliches R’ Us December 17^th 2019

Here in England it is another cold damp morning.  It is 5.30. Soon I will be out on the road- rather a late start for me. I finished work at 6 pm- 1800- yesterday.  British roads are not the best in the Western World and driver good manners are not favoured by the crowded conditions.  Luckily I only have to go to Watford and back, but the journey will have its challenges, particularly in this weather.

No doubt Prime Minister Boris Johnson is  also awake in the cloistered surroundings of Downing St. Like Westminster, his new home is built on soggy ground and much the worse for wear.

Downing Street used to be a favourite spot for tourists to have their photos taken. Unfortunately, by the time the Tories had taken over in 1979, they were so hated that the IRA launched a rocket attack on the famous house. When politicians are frightened they move with great speed to protect themselves, no expenses spared -because we depend on them ( sic ).  So a barrier, made famous by Plebgate- was built.

When I had a robbery, losing £2,500 of tools and equipment, the police sent two civilian PCSOs around four hours after I called them.  They had been told by command and control that they could do nothing to investigate. It was probably gypsies and there were a lot in the area.

There is a lot wrong with this country, and it is not just the roads.  I know about roads.  I used to help build and repair them many years ago.  It is a straight forward process.  Politics is different.  It favours devious and naturally dishonest people.  When I was selected as a potential parliamentary candidate back in the 1990s, I realised I had none of these qualities.  I was sent details of courses on how to smarm to the voters.

One wonders how Boris Johnson will fair and face up to the challenge.  Britain has its’ swamp full of vested interests, with a class system second to one.  Already Boris and his new government PR machine are firing out the cliches like ‘we need more nurses and police officers.’  There is no mention of reforming our institutionally corrupt self centred wasteful police or training more native nurses.  Cliches are cheaper than bullets.  Politicians love cliches, they have been getting them into power and keeping them there for years.  Robert Cook

The Present is The Past Posted December 15th 2019

Back in the 1970s

In the course of my work as a commercial driver, I visited Boris Johnson’s dreary Parliamentary constituency of Uxbridge last night .  I also had to go to the equally bland and depressing London suburb of Finchley once represented by the Tory dictator Margaret Thatcher.

I am not writing as a Labour or Lib Dem supporter.  They are all awful front organisations for international global big business – multi national global corporations with the primary function of generating obscene profit for already rich elite share holders.  These people include members of the alleged down trodden ethnic and female blob. A rich black woman like Princess Meghan Markle has far more power than a working class white man- if not all of them put together.

In the last ten years Britain’s 1000 richest people have seen growth in their asset values of 180% each over the last ten years.  While those of us at the bottom have seen massive falls in real income.  The rich elite are able to avoid tax.

As a young man, working for HM Inspector of Taxes, it was written on my probationary report that I expressed my opinions so strongly I upset my colleagues.  I said inflamatory things like ‘The tax system picks on and chases the little people.  The rich get away with it.’

My overnight job this Saturday meant stocking restaurants, thus visiting high streets and back ends of outwardly posh shopping centres. Last night was so wet and windy that people were thin on the ground, back alleyways a little quieter than normal.

On the way in to these Home Counties havens, one passes lines of dream homes built back in the 1930s, along arterial roads like the North Circular. These were visionary in a 1920s and 30s when homeless traumatised ragged ex servicemen, sporting long hair and unkempt beards, were tramping with tattered old army back packs and Billy Cans, begging for food and water. They slept in farmers barns or fields.  As a boy growing up in the truly austere 1950s, these tramps were back again. By the so called Swinging Sixties they all seemed to have disappeared.

Now in an age when governments keep telling us that we need more migrants from the Indian sub continent, Middle East and North Africa, even though we still have well over a million unemployed- many more in insecure sweatshop jobs- these outcast beggars and tramps are back again.  We see the same outcomes across Europe.  The mouthy ignorant students of our dumbed down universities don’t want any of this talked about.  

They are the liberals and reserve the right to ‘no platform’ the ones they don’t like, ensuring mainstream politicians and media can go on lying, with more disgusting wars in the name of equality, diversity and that wonderful world of ‘modern liberal democracies’. These democracies must be protected by as many wars, bullets, deaths and bombs as it takes.  

Gone are the old hippy days I recall at the University of East Anglia. It is my generation of elite pampered know all drug hazed anti war protesters students who have achieved this wonderful world.  

They created all the lies of diversity, hate and confusion. Liberalism, diversity and LGBTQI are the new religions, more powerful and just as threatening as Radical Islam which is reacting against them.

They love the police so long as they don’t bother them. They must be obeyed, hence the anger, confusion and demonstrations they support from their commanding positions in a society they promised to change back in the 1970s. These people have made the present so much of the past.

Multi Vulture Posted December 14th 2019

Multi Vulture  Posted December 14^th 2019

Boris Johnson’s election victory has triggered the inevitable mass protests in London, Britain’s global city- where Boris once reigned as mayor. The protesters organised via social media, their placards professionally produced.  Obviously all of this was planned in advance in case Boris won a landslide so feared by the liberal left.

There was much raucous shouting resounding across the damp London sky.  Repeated chanting of fascist, racist and homophobe were obviously practised and in unison.  The same nasty messages adorned the placards.  

The message was that they did not accept the election result.  The gathering and the marching involved a preponderance of women, faces twisted to express their moral outrage. Bearded men acted as outriders against the marauding police.  A new generation of social science and English literature students were inevitably embedded in the stream, inevitably coached by sixth form and ‘uni’ tutors.

Comfortable mainstream media commentators are preoccupied with how on earth the voters could turn in such large numbers against Labour.  Labour started encouraging a multi cultural society, wonderfully diverse, was supposed to encourage more ethnic minority newcomers who would loyally vote Labour. Over successive years, the Tories have been forced to pander to the Blair and Brown agenda. This agenda did nothing to renationalise state assets given away to big business, or rectify the horror of Brown taking up John Major’s vile private finance initiative.  

Remaining or leaving Europe will not resolve any of the horrendous socio economic divisions in what is now necessarily police state Britain- otherwise it would fall apart very quickly.  

It is important to take notice how many other European countries hate the EU, a police multi cultural state very much influenced by the surreptitious British power elite.  Breeding a generation of brainwashed and poorly educated ‘uni’ students to give defence and credibility to multi culture will not resolve the problems of Britain’s divided and impoverished masses.  

Austerity does not mean what it did when the concept was invented by Labour Chancellor Sir Stafford Cripps after World War Two.  It means limited pay increases for our wasteful self important public services. It makes no reference as to how mass immigration has kept wages low or even cut them, while prices of necessities rising.  

Meanwhile mainstream air wave media can’t accept what has happened or why.  It may have a multi cultural faced array of reporters or anchors, but they are of one PC culture, upper middle class and feminist. They display contempt for ordinary bog standard educated- education may be too strong a word.  Jeremy Corbyn should not be the scapegoat for the ludicrous nature and challenge of admitting the truth in this country. This is the land of multi vultures, not any kind of worthwhile culture. Robert Cook

Above it All Posted December 13th 2019

Above it all  December 13^th 2019

This the morning after the night before, but there is Abobe no morning after pill.  British TV pundits are busy explaining away the biggest liberal cock up since Donald Trump won the presidency.  New York born and young Trump lookalike Boris Johnson has kept his job as British PM.

The pundits have a lot of explanations and excuses for this terrible outcome.  None of them involve looking at the simple minds and interests of the lower order British masses who live day by day, looking for simple pleasures and with many fears for the future.  Mental illness, homelessness and suicides are at record levels. The largest group of homeless are white males, mostly punished and outcast by divorce.

Elite orchestrated gender warfare has gone on for so long, it is hard to see the old British extended or nuclear family functioning again.  The crazy world of gender fluidity has replaced traditional role models, increasing numbers of children growing up without male role models on board.  Masculinity is defined as toxic, manspreading and mansplaining are acceptable terms of abuse- keeping the average male in his place, gender confused and weak.

There is concern that young people did not get the liberal message or even bother to vote. One pundit expressed hope that when the voting age is lowered that schools will do their job, educating the new voters.

The outcome for the arrogant political and associated media elite has been the majority of Red Labour heartlands turning Tory blue. Ultimately it will not make any worthwhile improvement to the miseries, divisions and hopelssness of the many in a country still trading off its imperial and brutal history.  

Just listening to the election results in Wales- where Tories got 14 seats- being read in Welsh and English says much about how stupid and broken British society has become.  However, one thing hasn’t changed.  The rich here are getting ever richer in a global economy of which Europe and its British contribution is a major part, at the expense of the majority.  

The next act in this melodrama will be for Nicola Sturgeon to call for a second referendum as it welcomes more migrants from the old Third World to make up for years of depopulation, mainly into England.  Politicians are by nature egotistical know alls who believe themselves above it all.

They won’t learn. If and when trouble breaks out on the streets, these cloistered pampered people will tell us we need more police officers with more draconian powers. Robert Cook

British General Erection Posted December 12th 2019

British General Erection  December 12^th 2019

I have called this piece the General Erection because whichever way it goes it will be a giant cock up.  It is an election about multi culture, manipulated by the mainstream media and wide open to electoral fraud.

A majority voted for Brexit without a deal- not a matter of my choice, but fact.  Going back on that exposes the sham democracy.  We keep hearing that word in the media as part of the brainwashing.

A minority will choose the next Prime MInister.  So long as it is not Boris, the elite and media will be happy- though Corbyn worries the on taxing the rich. The media and elite are looking short term to stop real Brexit.

Whatever, the whole scenario has exposed the mess that Britain is.  Today’s tabloids give opposing views in banner headlines, opposing short biased copy.  Veteran actress ( or actor if you like depriving the language of differentiation ) Maureen Lipman, a Jew dreads Labour because of its anti Semitism.  

Mainstream media does not like to mention that the Jews Islamic enemies are part of Labour’s new underdog power base.  Generally Muslims do not like Jews- a fact ‘multi culture’ cannot change.  So whichever way this election goes, the outcome could spark unrest- with finacial and media elites dampening the economy, raising cots and unemployment for the masses.

Lots of Parties on Election Day Posted December 12th 2019

Black Day  December 12^th 2019

The only time I listen to the BBC is while on the road.  Radio 4 is the best offering.  The rest is populist DJ and music drivel, pap for the mindless masses.  There is classical music but that distracts me too much.

BBC Radio 4 can be irksome and usually predictable in its editing and bias.  Last week a programme on the missing pages of history in Britain’s schools and colleges. Predictably the chatty ethnic presenter focused on the absence of black history.  

We were then treated to a history of long suffering, especially women, black underdogs- rather than the black tyrants and those who collaborated in the slave trade and post imperial black dictatorships.

I had rather hoped the programme would look at the rise of monarchies, aristocracies, greed driven wars, corruption and class exploitation which still bedevils this country.  However, the thinking and elite practice is quite obvious.  

If the masses can be divided and ruled by the elite, through fostering resentment between class race and religion, then they won’t notice what you are doing to them.  All the drivel about empowering women is about emasculating working men.  All the drivel, led by Gareth Southgate, looking for racism in English football is the same process.  

Very well paid comfortable Southgate virtue signals while his overpaid and useless politically correct team fails, thus fostering resentment and more racism among the fans who cannot see beyond football. They cannot spot the football that they are. Those fans do not know what they are doing or why. However, they are doing exactly what they are expected to do.

That brings me to the British elite’s favourite sport : Politics.  This sums up the real game and is the expression of Britain’s mass ignorance by the lower orders.  The posh expensively dressed made up TV and radio pundits love predicting and trying to influence what these sad sorry little people are thinking of doing.  

For weeks leading up to the British General Election, the Opinion Polls have been flashing up warnings if anything dangerous, like intelligence appeared to be harming the process of prediction and control.  The Brexit Party have been denied the oxygen of publicity because they are seen as dangerously racist. 

If any of the elite forces spots signs of racism or deranged nationalism, they are on it, urging good people to turn out, isolate these viruses and tactically out vote them like anti bodies fighting disease.

The election result like everything else in this society, has to be predictable. Big business and investors really need this too. Predictability equals control and profit for the elite.  Dissent or apathy must be exposed and condemned by the righteous ones.  A bit of anti racist or pro Europe outrage orchestrated by the media, makes it look good, lively and exciting.

In the good old days, elections were simple.  They were black and white, red and blue.  It was workers versus the bosses.  For all the conflict we were all British.  Now it seems something of a muddle.  But it isn’t really.  I watched the BBC coverage of Corbyn et al speaking to Labour loyalists in cold grey Middlesborough yesterday.  Two Labour blokes wearing the old reassuring ‘eh up me bonnie lad’ cloth caps were there on stage with Jeremy.

There was rumbusteous fighting talk about bringing good jobs back to the North East.  It was a blast from the past, much colder than the cold blast from climate change bad weather all around them. The evil rich heartless Tories took the brunt of their rhetoric, as if two past Labour MPs Blair and Brown did only good. That was it, all about good and evil, very biblical and just too nice for satire or criticism because the real enemies are in plain sight (sic ).

It was fighting talk, with no mention that the EU bans the government from bailing out industries like the steel upon which Middlesborough once thrived.  Never mind, just get the mass of little people behind the feminist, LGBTQI ( This movement will claim the whole alphabet soon ), anti racist, pro Greta, pro Islam, pro Jew, pro pro, pro Uncle Tom Cobbley and all movements and we are assured of an awful lot of parties and a very interesting time,

White Guilt & Toxic Masculinity Posted December 10th 2019

History is like evidence being given in British Courts. The powerful can rewrite it whenever they like, as need arises, to keep the masses down where they belong- all in the name of their dishonest democracy and bogus equality. Charles Close

Love and Peace Posted December 10th 2019

Love and Peace  December 10^th 2019

‘Ignorance is bliss, it is folly to be wise.’ That was one of my mother’s favourite phrases. After my father’s accident, lingering death and the poverty that went with it, I begged to differ.  Not that I am saying my mother or father were ignorant, they just wanted their children to be safe.  They were young people who had grown up in poverty, kept in ignorance and deference- they had also lived through the horrors of war.

Growing up in the 1950s, my comics and films on TV were bursting with stories and images of the British heroically fighting the evil Nazis. There was no back story about how the Nazis and World War Two came about.  The officers in the old black and white films were always stiff upper lip natural leaders of the hapless lower orders, like my father, who were there canon fodder.

So I played soldiers with the boy next door, made Airfix model aeroplanes, collected toy army vehicles and soldiers.  I joined the Air Training Corps ( cadet branch of the RAF ) where we learned to clean and use rifles, march, practice drill and fly.  My ambition was to be a pilot and fight for good.

Then I went to the University of East Anglia, in the elitist days when only 3% of the population went to university.  One could read widely.  The teaching was provocative and good,  Political correctness was in its infancy, but it was there, manifesting itself with unisex clothes, peace and love.

Of course that was a sham. On graduation day all of my mainly upper middle class contemporaries turned up with nice haircuts and hairstyles, the hippy clothes discarded.  They had their careers planned, off to good jobs or a life in academia.  Silly me went to work on a building site in Norwich. I hated their fake world, the world these people and their kids now run.

Back in my student days, protesting against the Vietnam War was the unifying virtue signalling of my pampered student generation of ‘know alls.’  Now these same people and their offspring buy into, and even promote, endless wars for oil and other resources in the Middle East and Latin America. The virtue signalling aspect is now, fighting for other countries to enjoy the sort of human rights. diversity and democracy that we have in the west ( sic ).  It doesn’t matter how many people get killed, bereaved or maimed in the process.

Of course that endless war has to extend to Ukraine because of all its resources and farm land, so here is another reason to blame and isolate Russia- the latest propoganda being to blame the Russian government for the sort of drug cheating that all countries do, now that there is so much money in international sport.  

Wherever in the world, including Latin America, Anglo/U.S resource greed is threatened, Russia is there as the scapegoat. It has to be so. Back in the 1960s we were told that new technology would mean a life of wealth and ease for all people. Not so in fact. The rich funded and controlled the technological advances so crucial to globalisation and elite profiteering- and climate change. Never has the vaunted western concept of democracy been so bereft – yet so applauded by the comfortable classes it, and its police officers, protect.

They have given us diversity as a distraction and a nonsense to fight over- dividing all lower order men and women of all ethnicities The only diversity that should really matter to a person with a brain and honesty, is between rich and poor.

There are 8 people in the world who own more wealth than the bottom 3.8 billion put together. The masses don’t get it.  The mainstream media makes sure they don’t get the back story. I got sacked by a newspaper because I upset the important readers, and advertising mattered more than anything else.  Robert Cook

Stormy Weather Posted December 8th 2019

There has been no editorial or other posts since Friday, because of my birthday celebrations. My eldest son Kieran -a formidable historian who has worked on a lot of my projects, and is an asset to this site- and I combined business with pleasure, returning to Portsmouth to research a new book, and to have fun for three days. I am only just back, and must go truck driving at 2 am tomorrow, so bed oon.

We both love old Portsmouth and Portsea Island. It is the third most densely populated island in the British Isles with an incredible history. James 1st’s gay lover George Villiers, the first Duke of Buckingham, was murdered in hotel in Old Portsmouth High Street.

That is why we have Buckingham Palace- Royals have always been sex mad religious hypocrits- no nation does hypocrisy better than the British, especially the English. Villiers gifted the palace to King James

There are many books on the city and island, including two by me, and another co authored by me. But there is so much more to say.

Many fear that Brexit will overwhelm the port if trade shifts to the U.S.A -alarmist nonsense stirred up by the BBC. The BBC have been around all the southcoast ports with this fearmongering. If Brexit could really stir up all that U.S trade then it should happen quickly. Southampton and Bristol would also benefit massively.

But I am not an optimist. Portsmouth is a mixture of the down at heel old estates, big houses and luxury apartments. BMWs, boy racers, bicyclists and heavy drinkers, old pubs, new pub/restaurants, closed down shops and charity shops abound. Old blocks of flats are converted for students, new blocks are built for students.

Monuments abound along Southsea front, to old glories and epic defeats. Southsea in the 1960s was such an innocent place. By the time I arrived there in the 1970s, it was a case of what do we do with the drunken sailors on a Saturday night. I loved it, but now sailors dare not go out in uniform for fear of causing offence in a multi cultural city. Robert Cook

Top Marx Posted December 6th 2019

Being a leftie just isn’t the same any more.  As I have explained previously- to those who did not know- the term left wing dates from post Napoleonic France when people opposed to the restored Bourbon monarchy sat on the left side of the French version of Parliament

The nineteenth century was the age of revolution, reaching an apogee in 1848, promoting Karl Marx to publish his ‘Communist Manifesto’.  In this little book, Marx opened with the line ‘A spectre is haunting Europe, the spectre of Communism.’  He concluded with the line ‘Workers of the world unite, you have nothing to lose but your chains’.

During the late 1960s and early 70s, I ploughed through his works.  I was a poor boy, growing up spending my pocket money on Dinky Toys and model railway stuff before switching to books and moving into my head.

Consciousness raising was a key aspect of what became known as Marxism.  According to Marx it was false consciousness keeping the working classes of the nineteenth Industrial Revolution in their place.

This concept is a tricky one as it presupposes we can all switch to a sort of common wavelength via telepathy rather than a bond by fear, culture or oppression.  Marx put his faith in the last element.

There has never been a Marxist revolution along the lines he predicted.  The Russian Revolution was facilitated by a desperate Germany encircled in 1917 in a bloody war.  The result was parodied by George Orwell in his book ‘Animal Farm’ where the oppressed pigs take over to oppress , exploit and sell the rest of the animals under a new dictator pig called ‘Napoleon.’

Humans are not by nature idealists, they are survivalists.  We can see where idealism has gotten Julian Assange.  We can see that the U.S so called leftie liberal Democrats have no plan for the U.S beyond beating Donald Trump and escalating their money making working class killing wars.  We can see where Bradley Manning has ended up as an idealist.

So the latest protest and strike in France has nothing to do with idealism. It has to do with survivalism.  Macron is reforming the pension system to fund tax cuts for the rich, force workers into longer hours and lower pensions.  

For the protestors it is about survivalism.  However, once there is a crowd of protestors confronted by robotic riot cops, something does happen to consciousness.  It moves into and lives for the moment.  Across the globe, these crowds are gathering, the moments getting more frequent and merging together.  This is the world where the rich elite , with all their rich cliques, think they are invincible and invisible.  

Lefties today are the rich elite who have nothing but contempt for the worlds underclass.  Their unspoken solution to the environmental problem is to wage wars, make money and cull the underclass.  Beware the liberal agenda, it is not what the elite owned media, political pundits and feminists propagandists say it is.

Of course this sounds like paranoia and conspiracy theory.  So many of us are mad you know.(sic )  When Assange made his first appearance in a London Magistrates Court, the magistrate expostulated :  ‘You are a narcisist.’  The police and judiciary are the new psychiatrists it seems.  But how do I know, where does false consciouness end and true consciousness beigin? That is the Marxian enigma.

Proof Jeremy Corbynitsyn sees the future Posted December 6th 2019

Absolute proof that Jeremy Corbyn is Rushin and should be Prime Minister. Yesterday he revealed his power of seeing the future, a very bright future, a blinding light of a future. He told reporters he watches the Queen’s Speech every year hours before it is broadcast.

This is definitely the man for us. Sit him down in front of a blank TV screen, no need to plug it in because he is already plugged in. Then he sees it all. I am sure it is not just a gift confined to the Queen’s speech. this is the Uri Geller of politics, the man to protect us from what only he can see. He sounds more prescient than David Ike. So vote Labour and be safe.

She Deserves More Posted December 6th 2019

Here is the latest pot boiler from the top of the range laptop of top of the range posh lady author Gill Simms. Her previous materpieces include ‘Why Mummy Doesn’t Give a F–K’ and ‘Why Mummy Swears’. It is very hard being posh, all that prep school, boarding school. life of luxury, rich boyfriends to choose from, and then the hell of babies and life in a NW5 luxury home near Hampstead Heath. I know what hell it is in NW5. I used to live there. There is nothing much to do except push the pram and drink fine wine with your girlfriends. All those parties are such a bind, espececially the Tories. Family, says silly Gilly is a sentence – a life sentence no less.

Role Models December 5th 2019

A Distraction Posted December 4th 2019

It is all about the money and faceless ones. Buckingham will vote Tory now that Bercow has gone- most in this constituency thought he was Tory anyway. I can’t show the Tory brochure because it was the first to arrive and the first for me to throw awa..

People around here and in all the comfortable parts of the country will think more police is a good thing.the more urgent need for police reform is never mentioned because the idea of police corruption is beyond their self interested mind set.

I could go on, but what is the point? I cannot change things for the better. The pen is not mightier than the sword or our institutionally corrupt political, police, justice and financial system. It is not stronger than the jails our elite have for have built for us. Boris plans to build more prisons. That tells us a lot about the future he expects. i say expects because Tories do no act, they react, they are reactionary. Brexit is a sideshow, a distraction.

Money First, Forget Freedom, British elite experts in helping police states. Posted December 4th 2019.

Self Righteous Hate Posted December 4th 2019

There is much self righteous indignation and thought control from media and authorities in Britain since the killing of young Cambridge graduates Jack Merritt and Saskia Jones , who died in the London Bridge attack.   They were killed by convicted terrorist Usman Khan.

Jack’s father said “Jack would be seething at his death being used to perpetuate an agenda of hate,” he says. “Focus on rehabilitation, not revenge.”

The terrorist’s father has blamed the West for his son’s radicalisation. Speaking from his home in the ancient city of Fez, in northern Morocco, Mohammed Zaghba claimed his son had been a “decent young man” until he fell into the company of violent Islamists in East London.

He told The Sunday Telegraph: “The West is exploiting Muslim youth. There are criminals out there who are manipulating young men into doing these dreadful things, and most of them seem to be in the West.

The attack prompted the Ministry of Justice to review the licence conditions of every convicted terrorist released from prison, which Prime Minister Boris Johnson said was “probably about 74” people.

Editorial Comment  Non Muslims generally do not understand the Muslim mindset.  Because the obsession here is with creating a multi cultural heaven, serious questions are banned on pain of prosecution.

The British Empire was multi cultural.  It was a very violent place, with British ruling classes exploiting religious bigotry fears and ignorance.  What we have in Britain is pretty much the same thing but in a much more confined space.

Unfortunately, though one must sympathise with the man who lost his up and coming graduate son, one has to understand and accept the mindset of the man who killed him.  

Hatred and division is a serious problem in Britain.  It is not going to be resolved by censorship, self righteousness police or thought control anymore than cancer will be resolved by prayers.  In both cases it is basically an issue of looking at and questioning the environment causing those problems.  

A lot of the white hate preachers responding to the latest London Bridge atrocities are, like those seen running away from it on Saturday, just afraid for their own futures and lives in a society where politicians are arrogant, patronising, condescending, overpaid, thus out of touch and incompetent.  

There is also the issue of the unspeakable politicians who started the so called war on terror- most notably lying smoothie Tony Blair- and the likes of David Cameron who supported lies and carnage in Libya and Syria.

Rushing to Judgement on Russia Posted December 3rd 2019

The U.S British alliance are out to isolate Russia in every sphere, including the money mad world of sport. Thanks to a Russian defector, Russia now faces an Olympic ban next year. There is evidence that the that the drug data files have been tampered with, but that doesn’t matter. So how much did they pay for that?

If you want to beat a dog, find a stick. Britain ceratinly has drugs cheats, and what about Kenya? As for the chief stone thrower, the United States, remember the bible , and he who is without sin amongst you, let him cast the first stone. Robert Cook

Chinese Whispering Posted December 3rd 2019

‘Message to Chinese govt: good relations between countries are based on mutual respect and honouring the legally binding agreements between them. That is the best way to preserve the great relationship between the UK and China‘

— Whispering Jeremmy Hunt contact Jeremy Hunt (@Jeremy_Hunt)  July 3^rd 2019

That message comes from a very patronising Tory Minister.  It is quite obvious that Britain and the United States have a very dangerous agenda in relation to China.

The British Empire and its U.S offspring have always operated on the basis of expediency, abusing and exploiting their own underclass.  Their wars are not about human rights and democracy.  They are about more money for themselves.  

The Chinese are not stupid.  Hong Kong was stolen from them at the end of the Opium Wars. It is now a clearing house for Chines dirty money.

Swear at a police officer and you could end up in a British Crown Court, as I did in 2018, threatened with jail regardless of the extreme malpractice and misconduct of the complaining officer.  Fire a burning arrow at a Chinese police officer and it is for human rights.  Robert Cook

Dick is her name, Dame all the same. Posted December 2^nd 2019

A Chief Superintendent is being probed over claims sex encounter happened in a cop car – according to a story by Thomas Brown of the Sun newspaper last May.

‘ROMP probe cop Gareth Blair was suspended yesterday — as it emerged officers are also investigating his alleged tryst partner.

The Chief Superintendent, 48, has been placed on leave after we revealed claims he was caught with a woman, both in a state of undress at an Edinburgh Park and Ride. 

It’s thought officers were initially “discouraged” from taking the probe further.

But senior colleagues later realised formal action had to be pursued.

Next up is another Sun police story. Metropolitan Police boss Dame Cressida Dick condemned two police orientated dramas.  As part of her rant, she said: “I was absolutely outraged by the level of casual and extreme corruption being portrayed.”  She was talking about ‘Line of Duty.’

She also took aim at Bodyguard, starring Richard Madden and Keeley Hawes.Telling Radio Times how the series was perceived, she said: “It drove everybody round here ( her police cronies ) absolutely up the wall.

“I actually did have to switch it off after about 20 minutes.

“The moment when the Home Secretary made a pass at the protection officer was just beyond me.”

This woman is either ridiculously out of touch or a self interested liar in favour of censorship.  Did she miss the Prescott affair and all the other tales of corrupt bent cops.  Did she sleep through the police cover up of her ordering the police illegal killing of an innocent Brazilian.  

It sounds alarming that top cops initially blocked an inquiry and an investigation into the Scots police chief having sex in the firms time in the taxpayer’s luxury car- even though two arresting officers saw him. 

I cannot think of a more suitable name for a top cop when she thinks ‘Line of Duty’ shows too much police corruption.  The British police are riddled with top down corruption which is why her predecessor’s predecessor chose to resign, after awarding a massive contract to a friend.  

It is why she got promoted soon after the Stockwell killing which she ordered and which her friends covered up.

Jig Saw Posted December 2nd 2019

We are almost at the end of the centenary year of the Versailles Peace Settlement following the end of World War One.  The key aspect of this settlement was it being non negotiated.  It piled all the blame, guilt and debt on Germany, forcing national bankruptcy, poverty and despair on innocent Germans who’s families had bled in a war led by three in bred Royal cousins, King Edward V11, Kaiser Wilhelm II and Tsar Nicholas II, all nephews of Queen Victoria.

Hence the rise of Hitler, the Nazi Party and World War Two.  Now we have the quiet WorldWar Three.  Quiet here in Europe and the U.S.A if you discount all the street crime, terrorism, anti terrorist spying on us all and, ethnic violence that is.  Did you see all the cool Londoners running for their lives when they heard about the mad Muslim knifeman near their cool restaurants?

While studying to be a psychologist back in the 1980s,  I came across an article in the Canadian Journal of Psychology.  The writer explained that we have short and long term memories.  Studies suggested that we can only take in four new things at a time which have to be digested and stored long term before we go on to digest the next four new things.

I put that idea into practice when teaching students to play guitar.  Many would want to know all at once. Often I was asked how they could learn to play fast. The answer was simply to start by playing slowly at first.

That of course is not the mainstream approach to education or the work place it leads to. Lower class People are not supposed to learn more than their place in the world. Diversity may offer religious and gender diversity, but not freedom of thought or self expression- unless you count the consequences of creating anomie and religious bigotry, like the latest London Islamic motivated stabbings.

To be able to slow down and digest the fast moving complexity of the modern world, one needs to understand the philosophical concept of reductionism.  In my days as a long distance runner, training 100 miles a week, each 20 mile run at speed needed to be digested a mile at a time, then resetting my clock.  

I had an ex Royal Navy CPO coach who taught me from an early age. He would be done for child abuse today. Role models like him are thin on the ground today.  He taught me how to break it down, lean forward to enhance my centre of gravity when running up hill while competitors were flailing behind me,

Two years ago this Christmas I was out driving a truck loaded with big domestic appliances- which we had to install over 15 hour shifts and miles of travel.  My sidekick was Carol, a rather prickly off hand 40 something interesting Polish guy.  

Obviously I wanted to know his life story.  He had been an architect in his home country.  I asked him how he went about designing large blocks of flats or offices because they seemed so complicated.  At last I had made him laugh.  ‘It is not complicated at all.  Can you do a 500 piece jig saw puzzle?’  He asked me.  ‘Yes’ I replied.  ‘Well that is all it is, a 500 piece jig saw puzzle 500 times over.’

So that is how one makes sense of the wider world which only seems big because we are small.  If we can use our brains to understand the basics, then we can see through all the cons.  People repeat themselves in patterns the world over.  That enables politicans, big and small business people to con us into buying crap we do not need and cannot afford.  Public servants get paid too much to tell us who we are, what we are and what therapy – retail or medical-we need.  If we don’t fit then the cops will come along and fit us up or take us to the looney bin.  Cops listen to command and control and run on rails.

Radicalisation is just a word, a box, the elite run authorities use to contain us – which the lower orders pay for.  It doesn’t need to be confined to Muslim nut cases.  One way or another we have radicalisation in every acceptable PC area of our lives- radical feminists are just as mad and lethal as radical Muslims.  They can’t think for themselves.  They are just one piece of a jig saw which when you finish it will look just like another Bosch painting horror show.

Saxe Coburg Gotcha! Posted December 1st 2019

The Plot Posted December 1st 2019

The Plot  December 1^st 2019

For many of us there is no point in voting in the upcoming General Election.  We have three main parties offering goodies that the lower classes will mainly fund through taxation.  We have the Scottish National Party empowered to hold balance in all Britain whilst there are no English or Welsh Nationalists in the Scottish Parliament.  

Devolution is another of Tony Blair’s nasty divide and rule strategies – such strategy was used to build the British Empire, one of its first colonies going on to become the United States.

I think it was R.A Butler who originally wrote ‘Power comes out of the barrel of a gun.’ Guns are certainly the order of the day in global politics. Guns and all the other weapons are expensive.  They have to be paid for, mainly by the lower orders who also suffer from the resulting chaos and insecurity. This does not matter so long as the massive arms companies make massive profits.

These issues do not feature in election manifestos.  We have female politicians fixated on banning bad language and more police to protect women from domestic violence and rapists.  If there are so many rapists in Britain maybe they should ban viagra which is used at record levels because men cannot get excited about women without it.

Back in the late 1960s and 70s when I first took an interest in politics, keeping public spending down was the mantra for getting elected. Tories portrayed Labour as spendthrifts.  Labour tried to do what they were created to do, protect the workers from the bosses natural tendency to exploit and abuse them.  This led to regular strikes, economic stagnation, against a background of Imperial decline and hedonistic youth culture.

Margaret Thatcher and her henchmen stepped on to the political stage after the famous 1978/79 winter of discontent.  I was living in London at the time.  Lorry drivers, Fire brigade and refuse collectors went on strike. I was teaching in South London at the time, where every day the mountain of rubbish on Wandsworth common approached Everest proportions.  The smell was overwhelming.

Greedy print workers rushed to support Thatcher and her low taxation policies. They were masters of the old ‘hot metal’ print system, commanding thousands of pounds a month. Strange how they did not see the digital age coming.  They were wiped out, along with the coal miners and so many others.  Few realise that Thatcher was also the one who opened the door to mass immigration for the sake of cheap labour.  She was a war monger who was setting a little fire in the Middle East while Blair was hardly out of the MP nappy stage.

So now we have an election to resolve the Brexit impasse.  The name of the game is to offer the best lie that Britain has left Europe while actually staying in on worse terms for the masses. Both parties are offering distractions with promises of more doctors, police officers and nurses.  None talk of the need to improve efficiency in these areas and tackle profligate vested interests. None talk of the inherent dangers of their multi cultural lies.  

Diversity is a more dangerous con than Brexit because people can only be diverse as long as it is the right sort of diversity.  The right sort of diversity is the sort that has ridiculous fights between terfs ( trans exclusionary radical feminists ), LGBTQ people and Muslims.  While the rest of the British masses rush to buy apparently discounted electrical goods on a Black Friday which goes on for months, they don’t get the plot.

Spacewomen and alien life forms Posted November 29th 2019

Shakespeare was being very kind to humans when he wrote:

‘What a piece of work is man

‘How noble in reason.

‘How infinite in faculty

‘In thought and movement

‘how express and admirable

‘In apprehension how like a God’

Today’s Radical feminists have a big problem with Shakespeare because of his portrayal of women.  There is also the issue that in his day Queen Elizabeth 1^st would not allow females to perform on stage- perhaps she wanted none of them to upstage her! Young men dressed and made up as women got the jobs in Shakespeare’s plays. Lucky for them there were no TERFS around- TERFS: Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists.

Queen Elizabeth 1^st famously proclaimed, in the wake of Sir Francis Drake’s victory over the Spanish Armada in 1588, ‘Though I have the feeble body of a woman, I have the heart and soul of a man.’

Feminists are a driving force behind political correctness. The rich powerful exploitative ruling elite are the driving force behind feminism.  They opened the door for Greer, Walden, Boycott et al, backing and funding this poisonous divisive phenomenon.  Take a look at the story below, relating to an incident reported by Metro on March 2017.

‘Fists were flying in Speakers’ Corner, London, when the Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminists (TERFs) and their enemies Trans Activists clashed in the bust-up at 7pm on Wednesday.

‘Footage taken before the police arrived shows activists charging at each other, throwing punches and smashing cameras on the concrete.

Mother-of-two Maria MacLachlan, a member of TERF who describes herself as a ‘gender critical feminist’, was hit to the floor when things turned violent.

She had joined around 50 TERF members who came together for a talk entitled What is Gender? The Gender Recognition Act and Beyond.

The group, who advocate women-only spaces and oppose some campaigning by transgender women, had originally scheduled to meet at a community centre in New Cross, South-East London, but changed the location last-minute after warnings of a protest from Trans Activists.

Sisters Uncut, an LGBTQ+ Society from Goldsmiths University, and Action For Trans Health London were among the groups who threatened to protest the talk.

For the full story see the Diversity page.  This is the reality of diversity.  Women, men, all sorts of LGBTQ, Uncle Tom Cobbly and all, riding on Tom Pearce’s old grey mare.  It is all rather funny in a perverse sort of way. As a last point, I do think it is time that men ahd safe spaces to protect them from liars and potential offenders against their physical and sexual well being.  

I am sick and tired of men being stereotyped as simultaneously rapists and impotents who need viagra to satisfy insatiable women.  There is also the fact that nearly70 % of known rapists in urope are immigrants from the Middle East and North Africa.  The Nemesis feminist group have been attacked by Terfs during a demonstration in Paris for stating this truth.  This is clear evidence of a sex war on white men.

Former Met Police Boss Anger at Conviction of a protegee. Posted November 28th 2019

The British police are incompetent, overpaid, overesteemed with senior officers under employed and self interested.

When Boris Johnson became Mayor of London he approached the bumbling police Chief Sir Ian, now Lord Blair. Johnson said to this highly paid dubious failure, ‘Ian, if I was asked if I had confidence in you I would have to say no.’

Blair was forced to resign. He went on to write a fat boring expensive memoir protesting his innocence and how he had been God’s gift to London’s police.

Among other highly questionable decisions, including the awarding of police contracts to outside bodies, Blair promoted Commander Cresida Dick after she had ordered the shooting of an innocent 28 year old Brazilian electricians. I knew the ACPO police firearms lead officer at the time. He told me that Blair and Dick were excellent police officers.

Now as the elevated Lord Blair of Boughton this man concerned about the prosecution of Novlett Robyn Williams, an acting chief superintendent in the Metropolitan Police, of which Lord Blair was once the failed commissioner. Having been tipped as a potential future female ethnic minority commissioner at Scotland Yard, Williams’s career is effectively over.

In a letter to The Times today, Lord Blair questions whether the prosecution of Williams for possessing an indecent image of a child was in the public interest. When people like him say the public interest they mean the elite class interest.

The British police hide behind the myth of accountability. The official complaints body and the Professional Standards department work hand in hand to cover up corrupt practice in the pursuit of injustice. It is aamazing this officer was ever brought to justice. Most of them get away with it and rise high in the British Police Farce. Robert Cook

Power Posted November 28th 2019

Watergate journalist Bob Woodward opens his book on Donald Trump Fear Trump in the Whitehouse with a Trump quote. The quote comes from an interview with Woodward on March 31st 2016. The quote is “Real Power is-I don’t even want to use the word-fear.”

History is full of fearful tyrants. Many lived and died by the sword. Julius Caesar was stabbed in the back. Power is open to challenge from the person behind you, but not from below. It is far more insideous in advanced industrial societies. The cameras, bugs and recorders are everywhere.

Laws control permitted writing and speech, and hence our thoughts. There is an endless supply of Nazi minded minions to ensure control. I worked with people like that in the Inland Revenue and teaching. Women make the best ones, all in the name of feminism for them.

These societies have powerful institutions like the police. Ironically the more the police fail in their apparent duties, the more the public gives way clamouring for more of them. For the majority it is too abstract for them to realise that police duties and priorities have changed.

There is no doubt that fear is ubiquitous, so does that mean power is too? I think it is and always has been. In olden days fear was ultimately focused on God. Natural disasters and desease were seen as God’s will and punishments. Powerful rulers exploited this fear right into the nineteenth century. Religious fear and psychological protection still works for Muslims.

Meanwhile feminism wages war for female empowerment. For them enough is never enough. ‘We have further to go’ is a mantra for them. There is no logic in doubting that men have come to fear them- some women fear them too. It is again, an abstraction beyond most people to see feminism as an insideous process and part of the institutionalised power structure.

Back in the 1970s and 80s life was simple. Left was Communism and Socialism, Right was brutal capitalist exploitation. The ruling elite divided and ruled working people along racial line. Women were a sideshow. I summed it all up easily in my 1980 punk rock song Left Right. Some of the lyrics were:

‘They limit our horizons and fit us for a task

Dressed in blue overalls and carrying a flask

Left Right Left Right the headmaster roars

And mind you don’t stand talking and blocking up the doors

All running round in circles and marching up and down

Preparing for a life drifting round the town.’

In Britain the Swinging Sixties and the U.S Civil Rights movement seemed to have advanced freedoms for the masses, acting as an example for the rest of the world. But in the background the British were withdrawing from an empire they had divided and ruled for centuries. This left the Anglo American oil interest particularly concerned.

Now a new generation of baby boomer and their offspring are in charge. Women politicians and the LGBTQ are easily distracted by feminist and environmental issues packaged by the vested interests. Little Greta is an example of the latter. The downside of the consumerism the system depends on is not questioned.

The old Third World pumps out overpopulation wlecomed in the west by the rich elite. These people want the cheap labour, the lower orders do not. Any one who speaks out is a hate criminal according to myriad laws passed by this elite.

As an ex maths and science teacher, I know everything comes down to numbers and space. That is why there are riots and protests across the globe. Obviously the smug pampered rule making elite have to condemn this threat to their privileges, shooting people if necessary or locking them up, like Julian Assange. They don’t expect the masses to join up the dots because they own the media and control education.

As for the numbers, well these ones say it all : 8 people in the world own more wealth than the bottom 3.8 billion. That is a formula for more fear and more brutal power, insideous and naked as the need arises.

Sex Mad Posted November 26th 2019

Back in the mid 1970s, while working for the Inland Revenue in Havant Tax Office, Vernon Church became a restraining influence on my rather critical attitude to the tax system for which we were working. I was also a rather wild child.

My father died when I was 11, after a two year illness resulting from an accident as a truck driver. By this time, he had taught me a lot about the world, mechanics, electronics and woodwork.

He had a dream of building a workshop for both of us. Back in the 1950s and 60s fathers were the stallwarts holding the family together.

He kept his massive tool collection in the little back bedroom, showing it to me one Sunday night, arm around me saying ‘One day son this will all be yours.’

I could write much more about my father, but for now I just want to say that his sort of role model isn’t there for most if any working class boys. He had been a regular soldier, transfered to the Royal Military Police after being wounded at Dunkirk.

He taught himself French and German during those terrible years. Had his parents has any surplus money he would have taken up the opporunity of a scholarshiop to grammar school. My mother’s circumstances were similar. Poverty, however, did not stop them being wonderful inspiring caring parents.

Their attitudes were very British. My friend Vernon and his late wife Sylvia were no different. When I was young I used to tell him he was more British than me.

Now ‘Diversity’ has changed everything and there is more to come:

Anti-LGBT equality teaching protesters have reacted with claims of “white” bias after a judge permanently banned noisy demonstrations from outside Anderton Park primary school in Birmingham. The protestors are Muslim and are angry by this afront to their faith, upon which their world, or maybe other world is built.

A court granted Birmingham City Council an ordER temporarily banning protesters over safety fears about repeated large-scale demonstrations, often involving people with no direct connection to the school.

There is an irony about these conflicting groups. The LGBTQ group belive science is on their side. They have the truth about sex and sexuality. They are mad with those who oppress and ridicule them. Teaching thier views in schools to the very young is what they demand.

The Muslims have thier belief in God. It is their truth. They do not need science. God is bigger than science, God made everything and scientists are just trying to understand it. If they don’t buy into God theywill never know the truth until they arrive in hell. To these believers, the LGBTQ people are going to hell.

All along the way, Muslims and LGBTQ are so mad about sex, sex mad if you like. it is everything to them in this conflict. Sad how sex causes and reveals so much upset, anxiety, misery, brainwashing, guilt and hypocrisy. Sigmund Freud saw sex as the basis of a lot of mental illness . I agree with him.

Whatever I may think of Islam, teaching gender fluidity to infants seems insane. It is blatant social engineering, as is all diversity preaching. All it begets is conflict, pain and even war. Robert Cook

Fantasy beats evidence in Ye Olde Englande Posted November 25th 2019

My words today must be brief, after too many hours on the road, with more to come starting in the early hours of tomorrow morning.  Today I was in Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Shropshire and Herefordshire.  All was pretty much a grey blur with so much rain and haze.

Off the top of my head Worcester is famous for apples and sauce.  It is also HQ to one of Britain’s very corrupt police forces.  I can think of two men they hid and created evidence to jail two men for 17 years for crimes they did not commit.  Britian’s main police priority is themselves.

One was a 17 year old boy, at the time a simple minded grave digger, who reported finding a body in Kidderminster Cemetery.  They are also the force who spent years and a fortune trying to jail me for exposing corrupt senior officers. Evidence doesn’t matter to them.

Ironically folks in the U.S get a sanitised romanticised image of Britain and its people, from television and scripted tourism.  It works the other way with U.S films and TV misleading the gullible badly educated British masses.  Reality TV isn’t even reality once the auditions and cameras click on.  Evidence doesn’t matter to them.

So, today I started my deliveries in sedate Cheltenham- actually a nightmare when I visit in the early hours of Saturday morning when drunk young men and women lay on their backs in the town centre, after hours in the clubs.

Today, however, no troublesome lost youths.  It was cold and dark when I exited my cab, then imagine my excitement when I looked across the road and spied  an old London Transport Routemaster bus washed up on an island among the twee shops and restaurants.

On to other places then Worcester looking worse than ever in the damp. The High Street was bustling with council men under direction from a haughty young council commissar.  She warned me that deliveries would be a problem starting on Thursday until Saturday when many roads would be closed.

This is because they are having a Victorian style Christmas Fair- or should I write in Ye Olde EnglIsh Christmas Fayre?

I wondered whether the council lady would find a spot in her Victorian diorama for the young man I had spoken to just as he was waking up in his bed on the High Street sidewalk.  I am sure he could have been kitted out as a Victorian beggar, maybe earned a few pennies, lending real authenticity and evidence that olde Englande has not moved on.  But the powers that be do not like evidence for their fantasy land in case it raises any doubts.

Having a Laugh November 24th 2019

Editorial November 24^th 2019

Listening to smug cocky BBC radio Four yesterday, while driving to Bognor and back, I might as well have been listening to imaginary life forms broadcasting from Mars or even deeper into the galaxy.  

The Channel was rife with the pundits’ General Election excitement.  Obviously highly paid comfortable BBC people do not share concerns about the key issues of mass immigration and bewildering diversity as do the lower orders.  Anyone who worries about that is a hate criminal, facing social ostracism, unemployment , jail and  slow death.

First up was Nick Robinson on the Today programme.  He was down in the port of Felixstowe.  He couldn’t understand why most of his interviewees weren’t interested in voting.  The only port worker who cared was a woman who would vote for the party offering the best cheapest child care so she could go to work without worry.  

Subsidised child care for predominantly single parent families helps businesses keep labour costs cheap and trade unions at bay.  Mass immigration has the same effect on wages and increases prices of food and accommodation- adding even more profit.

The men interviewed at Felixstowe just could not see the point of voting, having no expectations that any of the parties would honour their expensive promises.  The woman, however, would be very happy to vote for child care.

This is all very interesting to me. The BBC pundits still talk about elections as if we are still in the 1960s and 70s- where and when the war was between bosses and Trade Unions. It as if Maragaret Thatcher’s devastating policies and the global economy never happened.  

Paranoia about Russian interference in British, U.S and so many other elections is a manifestation of that globalisation.  We have a British and U.S elite dominated global government, from which Russia is excluded until it joins the consensus.

British voters are either profoundly clued in members of vested interests or voting/canon fodder, badly educated, policed in every area of their lives, fearful, jealous, watched by police.cameras 24/7 in shrinking public spaces, paranoid, nostalgic for a non existent golden age, ignorant of history and the fact that this election is not about Brexit, taxes or better social/economic policies.  It is about fooling most of the people most of or maybe even just some of the time- that some being election time.  

To the posh powerful pundits and their paymasters  it is all just a game.  They are having a laugh.

Bugger Bognor November 23rd 2019

Listening to BBC Radio Four tends to irritate and annoy me. The whole tone is smug.  However, reading between the lines it is rather informative. My trucking mission today took me to Bognor Regis in West Sussex.  Much loved King George V’s last words are widely, but incorrectly, reported as being: Bugger Bognor – at least that is what British authorities say.

The King was a heavy smoker and, in 1928, he fell ill with a chest infection. He spent some time recuperating at Sir Arthur du Cros’s house in the south-coast town of Bognor and, the story goes, when he was leaving the town he was petitioned to rename it Bognor Regis as a mark of his visit. The famous ‘Bugger Bognor!” remark may or may not have been his reply but, sadly, they weren’t his dying words.

Still Bognor got its Royal name, Regis. Today, however, viewing the place drenched in grey light and drizzle,  I too thought ‘bugger Bognor.’  So before driving out of it, I tuned into Radio Four.  Nine times out of ten the first voice I hear on this channel is female.  

So no disappointment this morning. As soon as I tuned in I heard a woman with gruff rough affected working class tone of voice, a Labour MP, saying that Labour was going to do much more to create ‘safe female spaces’.  I think it was Caroline Flint. This she said was why women should vote Labour. They are the majority of the population and face abuse and threats everywhere as they fight for equality she said.

Pressed on the issue of why transexuals could not share these spaces, she was evasivse, pressing on about females always being under threat, thus needing sanctuary.

Clearly there is something very wrong with British society if so many of its men are out to seriously harm women.  Or could it be that the slightest raising of a man’s voice or sign of disagreement is a woman’s excuse to call the police.  A police officer told me that 80% of his call outs are domestics.  

Private space is decreasing and men need to take care if they don’t want ruin and life on the streets or behind bars..  The gender debate is hideously one sided.  When a woman makes allegations against a man, because she is equal but allegedly always vulnerable, she must be believed.  This is poisonous and unjust bull-it.  

In my view men, because of this awful gender competitive environment and never ending war, need safe spaces at least every bit as much as women. Serious gender segregation needs to make a come back, starting at school, chaperones and severe punishments for proven female liars.  One must never point out that females are more likely to harm and/or kill children. There is always an excuse or syndrome.  Feminism is not about equality, it is about power.  No wonder more and more and more men strive to talk, walk and look like a ‘nice girl.’

For more on transexeuals, I suggest you make careful study of the Polly Sexual and Psychology pages.  In a nutshell, the explosion of male to female transexuals is due to politically correct encouragement, aggressive militant feminism, lack of positive male role models and something in the water- men also fear being destroyed by vicious female liars.

If serious issues are not raised and addressed there are going to be long term outcome for Britain’s mainstream society. No ideology, that includes feminism has all the answers . Mainstream poiticians are afraid of feminism.

The CPS, backed by our criminally corrupt dishonest police. is going for 60% conviction of rapists. Germaine Greer has not been heard of since she said ‘most rapes are bad sex.’

I am not arrogant, so don’t claim monopoly on truth. Those that do have a history of causing , terrible injury, misery and loss of life. Britaijn is corrupt, with no fair claim to democracy. It is far less honest than China. Robert Cook

Ant ics Posted November 22nd 2019

Life is both simple and complex. Start simple and you get to understand the complexity. Ants are robotic. They follow the pheremones. Obstruct the the leading ant with just a puff of talcum powder and the ant army will go off trail entering the line behind it. The whole ant line ends up going around in circles. That is the world of ant antics, ants going ics– in circles.

Humans are not that different to ants. The person who drops the powder on the ant pheremone trail is invisible to the ant trail. The people in charge of this world’s massively ignorant massive population know how to have us all going around in ever decreasing corcles till we get angry, then start blaming and killing each other out of frustration and panic. Our ruling elites view us as ants, and ants as pests. Some of us even still have Queens.

Pulling Apart Posted November 21st 2019

Ms Rachel Ara blames bigoted male students for anonymous complaints leading to her being no platformed. She says it is because some men have problems with women like her drawing attention to the terrible experience of being female today. She denies being transphobic.She says that any such allegations are factless.

The problem with the whole LGBTQ situation is that there is a dearth of facts. Whatever side a person is on, facts are in short supply. It is very much about opinion, prejudice, self interest, social norms, new and old, expediency and what feminists want us to think. LGBTQ like feminism is a blob. It would be uplifting, encouraging and stimulating to hear from women who are not part of those blobs.

I was brought up by as strong woman who lost her husband when she was in her early thirties. We lived in grinding poverty, she had no high paid outlets for her talents but I never heard her complain about being a woman. She was the most important person in my life. All she cared about was her kids- my feelings as well.. I am sick of career obsessed bourgoise moaning women.

Bleating as Ms Ara does, about universities being places for discussion and debate does not wash. It is her school of left wing bigots who have created this nightmare world of intolerance in scant disguise of being the opposite.

From experience at two universities, , as a teacher and social science lecturer, I have met many feminists annd concluded that they wish to pull apart the natural bond between male and female in the name of female liberation and fulfillment. Many of them cannot stand the rivalry created by transexuals et al in the dangerous process of pulling apart what used to hold society together.

I am very sceptical of transexualism which is why the story of Polly Sexual is being serialised on this site. The more children are told at school to believe in God, as I was back in the 1950s, the more they will believe it. The more a person does something the more obsessive and ingrained it becomes. So just imagine being told you can be any sex or even race you choose, as they are being told today.

Feminists like Ms Ara may say they are listening to other opinions, but if so, only to tell others why they are wrong. Once you have been doing, saying and thinking what she has for so long, there is no way of changing that person. It is on a par with all forms of political and religious ideology and very dangerous.

Instead of pulling together, ordinary men and women are being pressured by State and media sponsored feminism to pull apart. Because we are all half man half woman, and men idolise and idealise their daughters, most are too stupid and self interested to see the danger. For further reading I suggest Simone de Beeauvoir’s ‘Woman as Other’ and ‘The Second Sex’. Freud on the ‘electra complex’ is also informative.

The Wild West November 20th 2019

President Donald Trump is probably the most divisive U.S President for over a century- maybe except for Lincoln who started a Civil War..

Impeachment seems to be normalised here to hash out a political difference between Trump and the touchy feelie Democrats. So you can’t beat Trump at the ballot box, Saint Hilary missed the boat, bring on impeachment.

The Democrats are setting a dangerous precedent so it could happen to the them, especially if they can’t come up with candidates better than biddable Biden or Corrupt Clinton- whose history goes back to Whitewater and Billy big Willie Clinton- the man with links to Epstein and had his intern Monica Lewinsky smoke a cigar with her vagina in his Oval Office.

There is no evidence of quid pro quo, high crimes, bribery or misdemeanours. Britain and the U.S deep State do not like Trump’s efforts to withdraw from the Middle East and to make friends with Russia -too much money at stake.

Ukraine is a vile corrupt East European Country and the Bidens were in it for money. Why should they get military aid if they are doing dirty deals with a would be corrupt U.S presidential candidate Jo Biden – a man happy to feed Ukraine’s corruption?

Whatever happens as a result of these long winded and expensive impeachment hearings, Biden and Clinton are not fit for high office. As long as money is essential to becoming President there are always going to be problems getting a candidate with virtue. Robert Cook

Two Faced Bond

Editorial November 20^th

For us fans of the late James Bond secret agent films, the bond between British and United States Secret Services was made very clear. The bond is also clear between the U.S and British ruling elites.  Founding father George Washington was from a wealthy British landowning family, and also a slave owner.  

The colony broke away for tax reasons during the rule of mad King George.  The two nations are so close that I call the whole arrangement Brimerica and its peoples the Brimericans.  Out of the pair, it is hard to tell which is the tail and which is the dog- the Blair Bush partnership being a perfect example of this confusion.

The U.S has its roots in Britain, especially England from where it derives its basic culture. In foreign policy they are as one.  As democracies they are equally fake and disingenuous. In all my years of living, I have never heard the words ‘defending our Western Style democracies bandied around so much as in the post 9/11 years.

So now we have lies about Syria using chemical weapons as an excuse to bomb and kill in Alepo because the Brimericans don’t like Assad and want his country;s oil.  We have a thumbs up to Israel taking more land and bombing Syria yesterday because Assad has been winning.

Bolivia, Ecuador and Venezuala have been added to the list of targets for Brimercan style democracy, a style more ‘Wild West’ than west. The misery of the bombed out riot torn lower orders is as nothing compared to ensuring the safety of the top few per cent’s parasitical luxury life style.

When it comes to whistleblowers, the Brimercan elite love it when Trump is in the dock bcause of them.  But when Brimercan war crimes are exposed by Assange and Wikileaks heads must roll.  

Britain has done its bit to back bogus rape allegations so as to trap and extradite Julian Assange to face Brimerican style injustice along with Chelsea Manning.  It wasn’t just the war crimes, wikileaks exposed the plot to block Bernie Sanders from the Democratic (sic) nomination in favour of Saint Feminist Hilary Clinton -wife of a sex fiend. What a bond, and bondage for the masses too.

Egonomics Posted November 19th 2019

Economics along with all social sciences originated in the turmoils of the industrial revolution, Like that revolution, it is British in design. Britain built an empire conquiering foreign lands, stealing reources and stamping its ideas and ideologies world wide. Religious bigotry and idiocy was crucial to their divide and rule strategy.

Nowadays they have added ‘diversity’ to their illusion of tolerance. Diversity actually creates conflict which is what the elite know and love. Thir latest trick comes from British college and university bosses announcing that students can choose their own race as well as gender.

At the time of World War One, the British, German and Russsian monarchs were first cousins, with much in common- including greed and family rivalries on a global scale. It is all very simple really and amenable to what philospohers call reductionism.

So it is easy to see and understand what is going on in the world today. As in 1914, the world’s wealth- wealth is technically defined as money and resources surplus to immediate survival- is in very few hands . It is in the hands of a global elite.

Key represenatives of that elite are, U.S Deep State, Britain’s thriving arms industry, The City of London, Wall Street, The EU, Donald ‘puppet’ Trump, Saudi Arabia, Hong Kong and all the puppets Britain and the U.S want installed in Latin America.

The human cost of their greed and lies does not bother them because they have an innate sense of superiority. The masses are easily distracted by hunger in poor countries, by feminism, family tensions, banal entertainments and violence coming out of blaming one another. Meally mouthed state officials and media love it.

So now things seem to be going the way the U.S wants it in Iran. U.S sanctions slavsihly backed by Britain have crippled the Iranian economy. The vast oil rich nation has gone from exporting two million barrels of oil a day to 200,000. Oil prices have sky rocketed and the riots have started

U.S Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has said that they will leave Iran alone ‘as soon as it behaves like a normal nation.’ Obviously Pompeo has no problem with Saudi Arabia’s definition of normality in action. Robert Cook

Paeodoville Posted November 17th 2019

Even hardened violent criminals get to feel good about themselves compared to paeodophiles. They talk like they deserve a medal for killing them.

Norfolk’s long gone Chief Constable dared to say that paeodophiles were more mental case than criminal case and that reserach needed doing to stop it. Intelectual police chiefs risk themeslves and jobs for saying such things.

Of course I am not going to be a hypocrit and say I am comfortable with paeodphiles. I was speechless when a work colleague said it was OK. It is not OK, but women do it as well, but are less likely to be found out and punished.

The first Duke of Westminster married a 12 year old, as did the prophet Mohammed. Certain groups have always been above criticism. Now, at long last Prince Andrew has spoken at length to the elegant Emily Maitliss of the BBC about allegattions that he is a paedophile.

Apparently he can’t remember meeting the young woman he allegedly molested three times and has been pictured with in the press. I am surprsied that he can remember meeting with his old friend convicted convicted paeodphile and milti millioaire Jeffrey Epstein shorty after Epstein’s release.

Perhaps he saw Jeffrey -who seemed to also have been a circus performer- his last failed trick was breaking his neck in two places whilst on suicide watch in a U.S Maximum securty jail. It is not very long since the white upper classes were selling their own people into slavery.

However, let’s play devil’s advocate for a moment , accepting that paeodophiles are born, their brains wired wrong. So they and society must live with it. That is the thinking behind building a special trailer park for them in California, to live under police supervision on release.

Dr James Cantor believes paeodophillia begins in the womb and cites brain scans to show what he calls faulty wiring. He argues that the normal caring attitude they should have to young people that their brains should display is converted into eroticisising them.

Freud’s influnce on psychology and psychiatry was short lived because of sexual hypocrisy and fear of looking at the reality of female sexuality. That hypocrisy si still with us, which is why Cantor only talks about male offenders .That is a big subject better left to my psychology page in due course.

Suffice it to say that Cantor ignores key issues. In the case of top level abuse, it is what the aristocracy have always done, hiding behind a genteel facade and ignoring laws made by their own class.

Regarding the lower orders, we need to look at the atomising of western society, militant feminism, marital breakdown and the sexualisation of the young among other things have played their part in creating this anomie.

There is certain research backed evidence that what happens to a child between 0 and 7 years old old determines ther future. Western countries, the U.S and U.K ar hot beds of greed , feminism and selfishness. They are atomised by modern socio economic relationships or lack of them New research shows that not only do the crucial years determine brain wiring, DNA is actually altered by key external influnces.

Obviously a rebirth of religious bigotry in the name of diversity and distraction miliates against any efforts to seek and popularise truth.

Modern societies thrive on elites fostering controlling information, mindless consumerism of goods entertainment and services. Paeodophiles are just another scapegoat for obvious bad outcomes. As I said they make all the other criminals feel better about themselves..

When I was training to be a psychologist, I came a cross an article in the Candadian Journal ofof Psychology. It was about research into jailed rapists. The report found that 99% pf convicts dispalyed serious issues with their mothers during upbringing. The importance of motherhood is now seen as a way of keeping brilliant women away from careers- yet we still have to accept Holy Mary mother of Goda and the Islamic equivalent.

It is one of the what should be obvious social truths that women simultaneously proclaim theier key jobs as mothers and in family, whilst agrressively competing to prove themselves much more than equal to men- this has much to do with the rush of males to change sex, as if that were possible because it is all in the mind. Meanwhile bear in mind that Dr Cantor argues that at least one in four of the population are paeodophiles. Robert Cook

Whiter than White Helmets Posted November 17th 2019

White helmets founder James Le Mesurier died after apparently falling from his balcony this week.

Le Mesurier was a man of many talents and achievements. His White helmets won an Oscar from Hollywood luvvies because they were always on the scene of apparent Syrian government outrages against helpess U.S and British backed Islamic extremist rebels. Thus film producer and propogandist must be added to his credits.

So it is not surprising that Russia dubbed this hero a spy. An ex army officer, Le Mesurier also had a role editing Wikipedia pages making left winger to be seen in a worse light. He made so many entries that many think he was leader of a large group of intelligence officers using a false name.

Britain’s elite, with the best of breeding and education have always had the edge on intelligence gathering and counter intelligence. They may look like bumbling idiots at cocktail parties, but one should always beware the smiling face of the Tiger. they had ample opportunity to assasinate Hitler and crush the Nazis before 1938.

They did not want to, they did not want to help Germany who they had helped France punish for World War One – a greed war between inbred Euro elites. They feared the Soviets more than the Nazis who they thought they could tame use as an anti communists. The mentality has not changed which is why Europe is in crisis and Brexit is a sideshow. Robert Cook

What do politicians do when they die? They lie still. Posted November 16th 2019

Top Tory Michael Gove insists Nigel Farage’s accusations are nonsensical. Farage has said Brexit Party candidates were offered jobs and peerages in return for standing down in the election. He told BBC Radio 4’s Today Programme Brexit Party leader Farage was being ridiculous asking for a police investigation.

Of course this is all about Brexit, so Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has complained to Ofcom that because Sky TV are calling this the Brexit election makes it all about Boris Johnson and the Tories. The election should be about why Britain created so many of the tedious rules in Europe and did nothing to reform the EU over the years.

What all of Britain’s political parties do not talk about is how far into the metaphoriocal- and in some cases real- mud the mass of lower class British have been ground down into.

Africa and the Middle East is a disaster area for many reasons that I have explained elsewhere and will come back to. For now, let’ s consider the impact of the ongoing open door immigration policies which Liberal and Labour adore and Tories fear to criticise.

It is behind a lot of Britain and Europe’s serious social problems. Virtue signallers like England football manager Gareth Southgate, with his fixation on fielding as many black players as possible, makes the situation worse.

Football used to be an outlet and identity base for working class men. Now it is all about the money, the millions -and fake equality. Nice millionaires like Southgate and Corbyn makes themselves look and feel good on TV and in the newsapers fighting racism, but they are all about distraction and making the lower class masses feel worse. Riots, far right movements and suicides are obvious and inevitable outcomes.

Now millionaire feminist pop singer Lilly Allen- she rose on the coat tails of her working class father Keith – wants to ban Rule Britannia. What next? Robert Cook

Much more to come tomorrow. I have been on the very busy difficult roads of England since 2 am this morning and only just back. Time to relax.

Pick Me Up Love it Chat November 15th 2019

To me the most interesting story in this array of wag mags carries the story of a woman who cut off her partner’s penis and one testicle because he showed naughty pictures to his friends.

Obviously his partner played the He was goint to rape me card. In Britain this would have worked and the emascuaalted man would have seen jail. But this was Buenos Aires, so she got 18 years.

The man had his manhood reattached but no hope for his testicle. Apparently he is now very insecure, undable to believe his penis belongs to him any more and unable to trust women. This case is highly symbolic of future gender relationships. Robert Cook

Get used to Hiding November 15th 2019

After the white Christian settlers from Britain delivered genocide against the native Red Indians, they set about engineering a ‘New World.’ As time passed, more people were needed, the colony had become the United States. Black slaves were ‘liberated’ but still hated. The new nation pledged that ‘all men are created equal.’

This new nation called itself the melting pot melding all cultures and nationalities into one nation. Its intellectuals embraced sociology, in particular Functionalism.

There were different schools of thought within this would be science that has never been more than just another variable ideology- works rather like a variable speed limit varying with the weather, to catch you out and keep you in check.

Thus, United States academia embraced Talcott Parsons and his Structural Functionalism. This idea analysed society as comprising Goals, Adaptation mechanisms, Integrative institutions and Latent Tension Management system.

This concept is memorable through the pneumonic GAIL. Marxists argued that the system did not recognise conflict- nor did their concept, but that is another story.

The latest school shooting in the United States is not officially open to any form of analysis, through GAIL or Marxism. The mental health of young people, the effects of individualism, multi culturalism state brainwashing, elite greed, State propoganda/cover ups, censorship or broken homes are not recognised as influences.

The best the system can come up with to deal with campus shootings is Active Shooting Drills whereby fake shooters invade campuses with fake gun sand blanks to scare the kids, so they get used to hiding. Meanwhile the market for new fallout shelters and abandoned military ones is booming. Robert Cook

Trumping Trump November 14th 2019

Most peculiarly there has been a rolling campaign to impeach U.S President Donald Trump since before he was elected. Britain’s BBC, most notably via the World Service, campaigned vigorously against him.

Ambassador Taylor denies being the Democrats star witness, but it was he who claimed a staff member had heard Donald Trump making a deal with the new Ukranian President, an alleged professional comedian, to exchange military support for dirt on Democratic front runner Joe Biden.

Since there is no doubt about Biden and his son’s dirty dealings in Ukraine, one might wonder what the fuss is about. However, like its’ aged parent Britain, the U.S politcal system defaults to fake feminist equality multi cultural liberalism, rolling war for peace and arms dealing.

One should wonder why and how a White House protected underling has the opportunity to bug and report on the President. It is clear from former Ambassador to the U.S Nicky Hailey, that the Washington Deep State does not like Trump’s anti war agenda, or his concern to help the U.S rednecks. All they care about is trumping Trump. Robert Cook

Blame Boris November 14th 2019

The Prime Minister has had what has been called some plain speaking Yourkshire people telling him what they think about his slow respones to flooding.

This flooding is a threat to life, property and prosperity. Another 30 mm of rain is expected in Northern England over 6 hours today. While this is going on in Britain there are terrifying lethal bush fires in Eastern Australia and destructive floods in Venice.

So Boris is to blame for not being like King Canute and holding back the waters. This is wishful thinking.

On the one hand we are supposed to believe in climate change, so stop using our cars and flying. On the other hand we are not supposed to consider any other causes than rising carbon dioxide emissions for this change.

The mainstream media and related interest groups want us to accept globalisation as a force for good, with all the free movement of labour, capital and resulting social instability. This is justified as the way of the future and long term good for all.

Outside of the global elite we are not supposed to understand cause and effect and how globalisation is behind rolling wars in the Middle East, Africa and elsewhere. We are not supposed to realise that war has a massive carbon footprint. War, officially is all for the sake of ‘democracy’ and human rights .

World population has been doubling every fifty years since the industrial revolution. This rising population has access to mainstream media propoganda, so much of it has rising expectations. The Wealthy West is the beacon that draws them out of Third World darkness.

Meanwhile the truth has to be hidden. ‘Knowledge waits while teachers teach’ as Bob Dylan observed in his epic song ‘Something’s Happening here Mr Jones and you don’t know what it is.‘

Interestingly British politicians offer a nation of religious freedom of worship. This has become a necesstity because Islamists are very serious about God. For them the future is the afterlife. The Koran is their road map to heaven. It does not matter if they take a few detours along the way.

Terrorism and Islamaphobia are worrying many non Muslims. Thus we are told to woship in our own way and leave Muslims alone. This implies that we have to accept the biblical explanation for everything.

The bible warns of fire and flood comes as retribution for deviants. When it comes to the reality of fire and flood today, the global elite and their political cronies put the bible aside. They appluad little Greta’s naive nonsense about reducing carbon emissions. Meanwhile one way or another the forests are chopped down or burn.

Even in little Britain the trees go to accommodate more farmland for an ever expanding food demand. Without them the flood risk rises. Population growth is welcomed by the elite who thrive on cheap labour and mindless consumerism. To the elite, natural disasters and war are an occupational hazhard for their policies.

Boris Johnson is a media scapegoat because they fear he will trick the nation into the no deal Brexit the majority voted for- a majority laregly motivated by fears of non stop mass immigration and more multi culture at their expense

Writer of Wrongs Posted November 13th 2019

They say youth is wasted on the young. As I approach 70 years old my perspective has changed. Books and education are not enough to help us to understand.

Experience is very important. I thought I was very old at 30 because society wanted me to feel old. The ruling class tell us what to think, how to think and when to think it. That is why the police have ever more powers to invade our private space.

The corporate lie that it wants people to think outside the box is a joke. It is just brainstorming people to improve the security of the box. If you tell the powerful how you can think outside the box you are just helping them to make a better box, that is why they are asking you.

At first sight the British ruling class appear harmless, even so stupid one might wonder how they and their ancestors ever got so much wealth and power.

The answer is their dotty eccentric facade is intented to deceive. When mainstream media comes out with something apparently stupid, it is for a reason. The following page from elite owned peoples paper Daily Star is kite flying for a solution to Britain’s increasingly violent street culture.

So here’s the thing proposed on the Daily Star’s front page: put back on the old 1970w/80s TV series Grange Hill about life in a London Comprehensive School and all the violence will go away. The little kiddies in rough tough crime and gang infested multi cultural South London will hand in their weapons, mobiles and drugs. Then they will come home for tea in the tower blocks, and watch Grange Hill on the telly. It was a big hit back in the late 1970s. Taking it off our TV screens obviosuly created all this urban youth crime!

This therapy will work better than Ritolin, better than a lobotomy. All will be well. Maybe when I was younger, say about five years old, I might have believed that. Experience, inlcuing teaching in South London, has taught me otherwise. The comfortable overpaid upper middle class elite who infest and dominate elite media may see themselves as Writers of Wrongs, but are in fact a very big wrong that really needs putting right.

Britain Really? Multi Culture Really? Posted November 13th 2019

Resource Curse November 12th 2019

Many many years ago when I was teaching A Level Economics at Spencer Park Boys’ School in South London, I came across a vital statistic- and I don’t mean someone’s breast size.

The statistic was that the United States accounted for 6 % of the world’s population but greedily consumed 52 % of all the earth’s natural resources consumed every year.

The normal human brain needs cues to visualisation. So I told my class ‘Imagine a giant cake at the back of the room. There are 94 of us in this room and 6 people next door. So we take just under half the cake, then send the rest next door for the 6 people to enjoy. That is what we call equality.’

The boys got my message better than they did from all the hocus pocus economics graphs I ever drew for them on the blackboard.

So we come to the concept of ‘resource curse’. It aspires to explain why countries rich in resources have a slave popualtion propped up in mind by religious brainwashing, at the mercy of puppets put in place by Imperial powers like Britain and the United States.

Those people patronise and humoutr the Third World natives with open door immigration into another world of slavery in the so called diverse West.

Here they will be told how new laws will be passed to protect them from racism, in a promisinng new world. People are so fooled by this nonsense that they die in the back of fridge lorries, after paying people traffickers a fortune for the suffocation.

No surprise then that President Trump pronounces a new brave step for world democracy by forcing Bolivia’s new President to flee his country . The consequent riots don’t bother him or the CIA. This President Morales raised millions out of poverty. His country is rich in Lihtium, used to make batteries for modern domestic, personal and military devices. Morales thought the country would get richer if it made its own batteries for home and export.

The United States did not approve, so the CIA got to work. Juan Guado who thinks he is the real president of oil rich Venezuela trumpets , like Trump, the fresh wind of democracy blasting across his sub continent, Latin America. It is in fact more big gassing foul smelling fart than wind, coming from the bloated greedy capitalists, industrial and military mad men in the U.S, who are always backed by Britain.

Enough is never enough for these people, which is why Boris Johnson pledges his support for capitalist so called democrat protestors in Hong Kong,

Hong Kong is the back door for dirty money coming out of China. These people are so democratic they have revived the old English Royal practice of burning dissidents alive. Boris has promised them his country’s unwavering support. That is not democracy, it is demonocracy.

Times R A Changing November 11TH 2019

The Guardian’s top story is all about women withdrawing rape allegations before prosecution begins. The article, in pseudo liberal Guardian news paper slants this story to say or infer that any woman who alleges rape is automatically a poor innocent victim of male brutality. It can never be the case that she is a liar. When women are exposed as liars the media finds excuses for her or just doesn’t report it. This is because feminism is all about promoting women as abused victims who are so inherently good that they should be in charge of everything.

There is very little private space now, with the police allowed to enter a person’s home on a multitude of grounds. 80% of police call outs in Britain are to domestic incidents. It is the number one police priority. In these cases the woman will always get the benefit of the doubt, even though women are repsonsible for more acts of violence against children than men are. Meanwhile, evidence suggests that women are just as likely to attack men and to lie.

But the police are not interested and the man will always lose his home and family if the woman wants it. That is why fewer men get married and gay couples are increasingly common. The white birth rate is at an all time low. Women have never suffered from so many mental health issues , from so much mental illness as they chase fantasy careers in a land of child minders, broken homes, youth suicide and mental illness. People are actively encouraged to spy on and shop neighbours and people in the street or at work if they are offended by what they hear said. Robert Cook

Under Cover Posted November 10th 2019

Back in the good old Cold War days, the U.S.S.R had two obviously state run newspapers. They were Pravda and Isvestia, Truth and News. Russians were not stupid. The popular joke among them was that :there is no news in the truth or truth in the news.

People in the west feel more sophisticated . Their leaders patronise the east, along with the rest of the less ‘developed’ world. For some of us, however, the truth they are hiding is obvious. The measures they use to hide it are rather frighetning, especially because they repeatedly use the word democratic to justify and mystify the situation

Labour’s front bench spokseperson Dianne Abbot was quick to demand that residents of Grenfell Tower should have their immigration status protected after the devastating and tragic fire there.

For me, the mystery took an interesting new twist when the Rees Mogg, Tory Leader of the House of Commons was chastised by mainstream media for saying on a London radion station: ‘People should have used their common sense and ignored the fire brigade’s orders to remain inside the blazing building.’

Languid Rees ReesMogg is a soft target for the Euro remainer media and ‘leftyH politicians. He is an old Etonian with loads of money and an upper class accent. So what he said is being passed of as a kind of white supremicist utterance. he is, in many of their eyes unfit for high office. He has no right to an opinion unless it is the right one.

I would love a five pound note for every time my lack of ‘common sense’ has been questioned. One of my old science teachers used to say that there is no such thing as common sense. I agree up to a point, but most of us run away from an out of control fire.

So why were they told to stay. British officialdom exceeds normal levels of bullying when it has something to hide. One suspects Fire Chief Danny Cotton had her instructions regards evacuation. Otherwise ordering people to remain inside the block makes no sense, unless she has no idea how to deal with major situations- which I doubt.

So I wonder whether there were high level fears of what it would look like if a very large group of people who’s immigration status had to be kept secret, had amassed outside Grenfell Tower that fateful day, with mass media on site to see it all. There have been reports that human remains found after the blaze suggested dead resident numbers more in the region of 1300.

Britain’s elite are the masters of cover ups, corruption and hypocrisy. George Orwell’s ‘1984’ was based on his intimate knowledge of their character, ruthlessness and deceitfulness.

His ‘double speak’ was already in use, as he knew from his time with the wartime ‘Ministry of Information.’ Thus it may have been the case that the London Fire Service bosses thought they could contain the blaze without normal exacuation procedure because they did not realise the danger from external cladding. There had been so saftey inspection for 15 years. When I was a school safety officer responsible for a large school, I had the fire brigade inspect the school every year.

London is a sanctuary city. Liberal propoganda is in the hands of an out of touch overpaid elite who do not do hands on jobs. Thus they are impractical but experts in their fields, including telling the rest of us what to do, how to do it, what to say, what not to say- and what not to write. The truth does more than hurt. It can cause even bigger fIres than Grenfell Tower. They don’t want that to happen. Robert Cook

Not Very Good At It Posted November 9th 2019

Back in the late 1980s when I was a rising star of the local council, an old hand and many times mayor was talking about traffic and speeding problems. His day job was with the Ministry of Transport.

I recall him saying in his rather slow North Bucks drawl ‘You know there are many people who say they play a bit of golf but are not very good at it. You never hear anyone say “I do a bit of driving but I am not very good at it.”

Well, I would never say I am good at driving though I passed my car driving test first time. Took me two goes to pass my motorbike test. As for my HGV training, well I am not going to talk about that!

In my view driving tests are rather artificial. While still a school teacher back in the late 1980s, I decided to take a crack at the Class One HGV. I went around a few driving schools for free assessments- the economy was depressed and training schools were giving free assessments because they were desperate.

I settled on a one man outfit run by John, an ex RAF man and former driving test examiner. ‘I bought this lorry ( British call trucks lorries or wagons ) with my compensation” . He told me. “Compensation from what?” I asked.

John replied: ” I was giving a woman a driving test one day when she drove up a bank. The car took off. When it landed I got whiplash injuries. ”

” Surely they don’t send people like that for driving tests?” I asked. ” They do, and we had to pass 55% of them or the chief examiner wanted to know why”. ” That means if you get rubbish in the morning you have to pass anyone in the afternoon to catch up.” ” Yes” he said gloomily.

I had a very long day driving today. There were a lot of accidents to make me think. Just as I was approaching Bicester and my depot off the M40, I saw the air ambulance coming into land. Then I saw the long tailbacks. Lucky for me it was all on the other side. Survival on Britain’s crowded and poorly maintained road, has a lot to do with luck. Robert Cook

A Policeman’s Lot Posted November 8th 2019

A police constable has been charged with murder over the death of a former footballer whose heart failed after he was tasered and restrained.

The officer is only the fourth to be charged with murdering someone while on duty in more than 20 years. He appeared in court yesterday over the case of Dalian Atkinson, 48, alongside a female constable charged with assault causing actual bodily harm.

Mr Atkinson, who played for Aston Villa, Manchester City, Ipswich and Sheffield Wednesday, was outside his father’s house in Telford, Shropshire, on August 15, 2016, when police were called to concerns “for the safety of an individual”.

This is an extraordinary case. Because it involves a member of the black community. One treads on eggshells passing comment. However, the charge of murder is absurd. Murder requires proof of intent. The CPS has had two years to consider this case. One can only assume that they have gone for the major charge so that they can accept a reduction to manslaughter. In their view that will be what they want.

I am no fan of the pampered overpaid targtet obsessed out of touch command and control officers of the police or the politcians who refuse to reform the police.

Leaving that aside, only a professional criminal, anarchist, comfortable patonising bourgeoise or fool would think there is no need for the police.

Only a very unfiar person would expect the police to deal with ever more serious violent situations , and some very seriously disturbed people withput means of defence.

This case makes an interesting contrast to the Hillsborough situation or the brazen police assault on Ian Tomlison where Steven Harwood got off..

Frontline officers will need no advice from me to think twice about carrying or using tasers. They should also be wary of dealing with any potentially violent situation without defensive weapons, full back up and/or methods of safely restrainig persons without undue risk to anyone. Forearms officers will also need to learn from this situation if the accused iis convicted of manslaughter.

One might envisage a situation where an officer confronting a violent and or deranged person having to make an official request to that person for medical history and risk of death before daring to discharge any form of weapon, taser or other.

I am not arguing for the police to have free use of deadly violence, just rules that make clear what the officer can and cannot do before responding for the benefit of the public and police safety. Police are not trained medics or social workers. This was a tragic accident . Robert Cook

A Simple Mind Posted November 7th 2019

Having to study Marxism during my first year at university seemed rather boring. Images of Marx depicted a bearded old man from a long gone irrelevant past.

Age and experience have taught me that I was wrong to take such little interest, but I did read the books. At last I see the value of a Marxist perspective, though I see no way of verifying the nature of true consciousness.

However, it appears to me that Marx’s lumpenproletariat is now on a global scale. The elite’s enthusiasm for freedom of worshipping an imaginary God, in man’s image, is their way of rebooting the old Marxist ‘opium of the masses’.

The same goes for all the other diversity stuff. Careers and job opportunities before relationships and stable communities is just about generating a particular consciousness for the sake of the elite who get richer everyday,

The risk of their mentality leading to super power global conflict does not bother them. They will have the fallout shelters and fantasy homes in the sky to go to. Meanwhile even black people can fly the jet fighters and lead the armies into what Tennyson called ‘The Valley of Death’. That’s how equal it is in Britain.

So to my simple mind there is only one truth about diversity, the division between the haves and have nots. The reasons for mass migration into Europe are simple and explained elsewhere.

It has meant even more desperate people on British streets, with false consciousness and scapegoating the elite’s primary defence. Calling for more police is not a solution, it is an indicator of how bad and serious the problems are. Robert Cook

Left Right Posted November 6th 2019

• ” They limit our horizons and fit us for a task
• “Dressed in blue overalls and carrying a flask
• ” Left Right left right the headmaster roars
• “And mind you don’t stand talking and blocking up the doors”

Lyrics from a song by Robert Cook 1980

Black and White Posted November 5th 2019

My physics teacher taught us that we see things because they reflect or absorb light, which comes from the sun. Light is a spectrum of colours which is why we see rainbows after heavy rain followed by bright sunshine. The colours are red, orange, yellow, blue, indigo and violet. Objects can reflect anyone of these colours in different shades.

Black absorbs all the colours of the spectrum. White reflects them all. Black is not a good colour to wear in the heat. It is not a good colour for buidings in hot countries without central heating. Englands old thatched cottages were painted white because in the old days white paint or white wash was the only option. People in hot countries have adapted over thousands of years to heat, hence dark skins.

Why mention this? Because Briain is celebrating Black History Week and there are some interesting things mentioned in the media and serious stuff ignored.

Racism is the hot topic after feminism in this country. The little Somerset town of Bideford was christened ‘The White Town’ by nineteenth century writer Charles Kingsley. This is because all of its buildings are white. Now it must stop doing that because it is offensive to ‘black people’.

So our elite owned and run mass media is banging the drum for blacks and blaming white working class bigots for all the problems- white women are excused because we are supposed to know that white men bully them into submission.

It is an unplesant truth that there is a poorly educated white underclass, hard hit by economic change, unemployed or unemployable- many homeless because the rich and governments have pushed property prices out of reach of the masses.

The elite do not want to reduce a lifestyle paid for by the working class. There is a myth that ‘we are all working class now.’ In fact anyone below middle middle class is in danger of being dragged into the quaint English gutter- or ditch in Boris Johnson’s case.

It is interesting that the elite and their media are now doing their re write of history using the lower white order as scapegoats. They don’t want to have that order challenged so we have Channel 4 ( Junior BBC ) with an advert fronted by little black children in army Generals Uniform, fighter pilot role, judge and all the other top uniforms right up to the Queen.

How about being really radical and abolishing the monarchy ? We have the nearly black princess who is doing her best to finish of Princess Diana’s job of exposing them for what they are -another story for another day. What do Britain’s fighter pilots do? Do they fight for good, democracy or just to ensure the Western Elite get the oil etc?

That is the face of liberal England, run by the same ruthless disingenous white patronising mickey taking pampered protected elite. Fantasy blacks growing up to fill the key roles- no matter how much light their skin absorbs does not alter the fact that Britain is institutionally corrupt in business, politics, finance and police. There is no evidence that black leaders in Africa have improved on colonial days, or have a more caring attitude to their fellow blacks.

There is no evidence that postive discrimination makes for better outcomes. It certainly won’t deal with the rot and corruption at the heart of this very nasty badly run country- which by Boris Johnson’s own admission can only be controlled by more police- with sepcific personality traits- and intrusion into our private space. Black history week is an establishment programme promoted in their interest. Robert Cook

Boeing Boeing Gone Posted November 5th 2019

The Boeing Aircraft Company was started almost by accident by William E Boeing- see engineering page for company history. This was because when Boeing ordered spare parts for his damaged Martin aircraft he realsied he could build one of his own design in his company’s boat yard. By the end of World War Two Boeing was a mainstay of the infamous U.S Industrial Military complex.

Ground breaking jet airliner designs like the 707, 747 and 737 revolutionalsed air travel for business and leisure. But two new accidents have seriously damaged this ever rising star player in world avaiation.

Cutting corners is always tempting in the world of work and business. Sometimes it can lead to better practices, but all two often disaster strikes- though it is said ‘you cannot make omlettes without breaking eggs.

So Boeing cut corners to beat Airbus to the post with a more environmentally friendly airliner – in reality no jet liner can be deemed environmentally friendly. But as with mobile phones, the masses and their leaders have forgotten that there was a time before mass air travel, making Greta a bit of a joke.

So with two fatal crashes of its 737 Max 8 , killing 376 people, Boeing is in the dock.. The airliner remains grounded worldwide. The Federal Aviation Administration is under scrutiny for its certification process. Boeing virtually certificated itself because it is so much part of the U.S establishment. It is all reminiscent of aeronautical engineer and part time Neville Shute Conway’s old novel on the subject.

Pilots have also been blamed, but the bulk of a recent report puts most of the responsibility on Boeing and its flawed design. It is wrong to call it flawed because the flaws were deliberately built in.

It took a while and lots of injury and accident before anything approaching safe controllable powered flight was acheived in 1903. After that progress was exponential. The theory put into practice was that a heavier than air machine can only fly on a similar principle to metal boats floating. They must have buoyancy from the air below them.

This buoyancy is achieved by the air being forced to flow faster over the top of the wings and tail plane than it does underneath. This means there is a bigger mass of air molecules under the wing than above it.

The cross sectional profile of the wing and what is called the diahedral angle where the two wings join the fuesalage, along with the weight and speed of the airplane are crucial to the process we call flying. It is a precise issue of engineering.

But the Boeing designers wanted to break these rules to accommodate two much larger engines on the wings of the original Boeing 737 design. The object of the exercise was to save fuel, so cutting exhaust pollution.

Conevntional aircraft controls vary angles of hinged flaps called ailerons and trim tabs on wings, tailplane and rudder. Until Airbus broke the rules with what was called remote ‘fly by wire’ controls in the 1970s, the controls were hydraulic and manually operated with little use of computers.

The first Airbus display at the Paris Airshow led to a fatal crash. That did not stop designers working on improvements to the computer systems. Nowadays passengers like me have flown thousands of miles on Airbus products.

Boeing hope to resolve the 737 Max 8 problems and reassure a diffident public. The problem, however, for them is more complex than making sure the compuer system works. They seem to be asking the computer software to do the impossible. The air flows and weather patterns encountered by aircraft in different parts of the world and altitudes is not homogenous, even head on. Traditionally the pilots could easily overide computers to trim the plane.

Not so with the 737 Max 8 which is actually, because of the large engines and their position is nose heavy. Boeing was arrogant to think they could produce quick reacting software to cope with quick changing weather variations.

So far ex military pilots report saving their 737 Max 8s from disaster. That seems to be because they are the best and were taught to actually fly under stress, rather different in character and skill from the new generation of computer nerds who are at the controls of most airliners today.

Easterly Wind Posted November 5th 2019

You do not have to be tall to be a dictator. Vladimir Putin, who I think is a force for stability, is 5′ 6″. Emanuel Macron is average at 5′ 8″. No good person in the west would call Macron a dictator, but he certainly wants his own way in Europe and beyond.

Macron and other EU leaders have repeatedly expressed concern over the gradual breakdown of the rule of law in Turkey after a failed coup in 2016 prompted a brutal crackdown on dissent

Macron condemned Erdogan’s government’s human rights record in a speech to the Council of Europe. He said that the “decline of the rule of law” in Turkey “had to be the subject of all our vigilance”. 

Macron and his Anglo U.S cronieshave been busy for years destabilising Syria on the pretence of bringing that wonderful concept ‘western style democracy’ .

At last the U.S admit it is the oil they want and they are taking and exporting it. Thus it is unbelievable that Macron attacks Erdogan, under cover of the human rights issues that never bothered the west before. This is because they have moved into Syria as the U.S were starting to pull out.

We live in very interesting times. Britain, the U.S and the EU created a massive movement of Muslims into Europe because of their wars and need for Muslim cheap labour in post industrial times. They have added religious tolerance and freedom of worship to their divide and rule mantra.

When Gorbochov collapsed the USSR, reunification of Germany was celebrated. But like the rest of Eastern Europe, those places were behind the times with an idealsied view of the west.

Unfortunately for Western leaders like Macron and the puppets they have tried implanting to lead former Soviet states, those countries want to keep their national identity whilst benefitting from membership of Europe.

Sadly for them, and in spite of their superior education, they do not see the simple truth. They are wanted in Europe for their countries’ resources and for cheap labour- the latter is why free movement is so important.

From my early 1960s years watching our old black and white TV in the corner of a front room that was only a few feet from a busy main road to London, I watched BBC’s first satire show. It was called ‘ That Was The Week That Was’. It thrived by taking pot shots at the stuffy old Tory Government along with all of Britain’s vile hypocrisy.

Over the years the rising stars of that programme, likeVicar’s son and Cambridge graduate David Frost grew rich. They became a part of an adapted British Establishment which laughed with them rather than reform. Frost was knighted.

That pretentious patronising BBC elite are their children and grandchildren. These people and the State Broadcater BBC which pays them very well, declared satire dead when Tony Balir and his repressive government of lawyers came to power.

The so called Brexit Confusion is not confusion. It is the political wing of this nasty elite trying to come up with a ‘deal’ that will confuse the ignorant masses into thinking they got to leave the EU.

Macron and the rest of the Euro elite have to persuade Eastern Europe that they must get into line. I heard a whole progarmme on BBC Radio Four, where Oxbridge educated public school girls were trying to stir up a feminist movement in Poland.

BBC World Service, which has links with MI6, have had a big budget increase under May’s government, extending their multi lingual services to even more countries. I listen to it regularly on my very early morning truck driving shifts. It is pure propoganda, the British elite doing its best to divide and rule so that they and their kind can go on safely with their easy munificent lifestyles.

Going back to an earlier point, it remains to be seen whether the bitter winds from Eastern Europe will be quelled by clouds and jets of hot air from Macron and his kind. Robert Cook

England Out Of Touch November 3rd 2019

Sport is about ego and money. England’s rugby players believed the hype that they had the rugby world championship in the bag. Had it been a final with Wales they would still have lost. Wales would certainly have had more chance of beating South Africa, as their Six Nations performance attests.

England gave up way before the end because their stupid little patronising plan to defeat the Springbox was not working. Their appalling churlish behaviour refusing to wear the runners up medal is a metaphor for what this horrible little elite divided country has become. Its champions and elites can never admit being wrong and or misguided. England played like arrogant idiots but think they should still have won. Rule Brittania etc.

Russia Threat To British Democracy November 3rd 2019

Former Attorney General Dominic Grieve demands release of a report by his intelligence and security committee saying Russia has interfered in elections of other countries and will interfere again in Britain’s general election. He has called the Prime Minister a liar in the face of Russia’s threat to ‘our democracy.’

Britain is unique in Europe, cut off from the mainland by two rivers eroding their catchment area to create the English Channel. Two major invasions, the Romans and Normans left massive cultural marks. The legacy of Norman rule is still redolent, partuclarly in our class conscious deference divide and rule class/legal system.

In this way, the British elite avoided the turmoil of social unrest and revolution that plagued the continent during the nineteenth century. Thus they had the advantage when it came to building a global empire, leading them into two World Wars defending it at the cost of millions of working class soldiers.

Since those famously dark and heroic days Britain’s ruling class have churned out the myth that Britain won the war against Nazism single handed for high motives, led by the great Churchill ( who even had a tank with a pea shooter gun named after him – see ‘The Vauxhall Story by Robert Cook ). Russia, of course played no serious part. Nor did Britain sell its East European allies down the river afterwards.

Then comes the great myth that the EU has stopped serious war- at a time when whole sectors of the globe are on fire as a result of Anglo U.S Imperialism, greed. lies and hypocrisy- backed up by France.

So from the elite perspective, men like Grieve and their comfortable constituents want regime change in Russia, with either remianing in Europe or Brexit in name only- BRINO. Disbanding the USSR was not enough. Russian oligrarchs and traitors have been welcomed to Britain, but this is not enough.

President Trump is also in the sights of the self appointed money grabbing power mad moralists who want to blame Russia for anything and everything. That is why Jullian Assange has to be kept locked up. He has been called a Russian agent and traitor by the Anglo U.S elite.

Officially Assange was just another Russian puppet out to undermine Anglo British dirty tricks for the sake of ‘democracy’ in the Middle East.

According to Grieve, the British masses are so stupid that Russia can just plug in to their brains to swing the election. So, if that is true, who do they want to win and why?

I am not getting the Russian doom ray messages in my head, so I need to see the report so I can do my best to help save this wonderful British, envy of the world, freedom loving British style, multi cultural representative democracy. See full report on Internatioanl News Page.

Manifestos and Bold ( maybe better to say bald ) promises. October 31st 2019

I am writing from Speaker John Bercow’s constituency. Thank God this money grabber and most expensive public servant is leaving. ITV have leaked a rumour that he wanted a million pounds to appear on Celebrity Jungle.

Their budget didn’t stretch so the tiny man turned down another opportunity to play the role of performing monkey, a role he played so well for the likes of SNP Commons leader Ian Blackford and other remoaners.

On the plus side of the Brexit con taking so long, Parliament has had less time to pass more laws, something it loves doing and blaming Europe for instead. Sombreros and Halloween blackfacing is being banished by the PC elite consensus because they are racist, offensive and divisive to minorities.

The ( lack of ) government is also being pressed to bring new style speed cameras into force. These cameras have been a big success in Australia. Pressure groups, led by the police, argue that they will stop people taking photographs with their mobile phones- something else that will soon be outlawed.

The key phrase is that they are designed to spot suspicious in car movements, using a dedicated sophisticated algorithm. This is just more of the police state in my view. Britain is already the most watched country in the world.

Now look closely at the picture above. It is of the Rolls Royce BMW dealer. Posh expensive personal transport vehicles are as common as luxurious secure gated mansions in the Home Counties. This dealership is close to the Queen’s much loved and most symbolic castle at Windsor.

Imagine the locals horror at the not so poor Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn becoming Prime Minister. Why not you may ask? Well, he might be out to block a no deal Brexit but he is also worrying them with his talk of war on elites and tax evaders. Of course he could never deliver on this promise, but the super rich are easily frightened. High taxes are only for the poor.

The wealth of the rich comes off the backs of the workers. So far feeding them on and dividing them with the destructive sex war has held them at bay. But there are all those nasty protestors from real Europe to Latin America. Police and laws are needed to protect the elites. They don’t trust that rich fool Boris Johnson either so more drastic action is now needed.

Corbyn in Revolution Mode October 31st 2019

I gave up my aspirations to be a serious politician years ago. As a fairly young member of my local council I used to believe that I could make a difference, believed my own impassioned and rather melodramatic offerings to the council chamber.

It was during the selection process to become a parliamentary candidate that I realised my rather academic outlook rendered me unsuitable. On a grander scale, Labour Leader Michael Foot had the same weakness. There was a joke about him in the early 1980s. It was that he ‘was one foot that would not make a ruler.’

Corbyn was, however, treated with respect by BBC reporters mindful of their elite status and needing to sound like they were with Jeremy Corbyn and all the underdogs who are more relics of the Edwardian Age than the 1970s.

This is going to be an interersting General Election all fired up by Brexit. Boris’s Tories will struggle to win seats in Scotland and are in big danger of the Brexit Part splitting the English vote if they do not offer a deal for no deal. Blair followed the Thatcher legacy of alienating Scotland, cementing the rise of Jimmy Clitheroe look alike Nicola Sturgeon and her SNP.

Ultimately it is going to be quite a little battle between in fighters and vested interests. At this moment it is difficult to see a majority government emerging in our outdated first past the post system.

Meantime no attention is being paid to the appalling mess that Europe is in, and the problems the British elite have helped, if not insisted, that it dodged for at least a decade.

Our elite want to remain in the EU Customs Union without an official say in how it makes and operates the rules- then it can’t be blamed, but the British public will be blamed for voting leave.

Politics is easy to understand if, like me, you are or were a maths teacher. But one needs something rather nasty about oneself to actually be a functioning politician. This makes all those fine lady politicians so amusing when they complain about the terrible language used in so called debate. They don’t seem to realise that what is said in the chamber does not really matter. It is all the conspiracies, back room and top restaurant talk that counts.

Royal Jelly October 30th 2019

Since the day Charles married Lady Dianna Spencer the elite owned and elite dominated mainstream media has been about melting and reshaping the monolithic stuffy rigid British monarchy into something sweet- sort of Royal Jelly. Once remoulded it can reset as an iconic influence for another 1000 years.

As a teacher and lecturer for many years, I know just how ignorant people are kept about the past. The way history is taught up to degree level is like teaching physics without maths. There is no accounting for where history’s energy for change and solidification comes from or how to measure it That is why the media are able to pass off the Brexit situation as a crisis of confusion. The elite are not confused. They and their media cronies are out to confuse the masses.

And so we have the drivel about Princess Meghan Markle who is as white as she is black, as rich as the masses are poor. On the day she married Harry, the rough sleepers on the streets outside Windsor Castle were moved on because they were an affront to the dignity of Royal pomp and circumstance. Only drooling slavish flag wavers were allowed to watch what should be an irrelevance in a logical world not driven by the maths of power, greed, delusion, deference and status.

Now I hear that 71 British female MPs have signed a letter supporting Prince Harry’s wife Meghan’s campaign to be protected from media criticism. Apparently she doesn’t fit in because she is black. It has nothing to do with her pugnacious approach to her new public life or hypcrisy. She is being portrayed as another female victim like Princess Dianna.

Princess Dianna is another story. A naive girl from a wealthy but cold home background, she gave her heart to lost causes like landmines and AIDS. In doing so she created powerful enemies, particularly when she exposed the future king as an adulterer.

Her death remains a mystery to many. The play ‘Sex Lies and Princess Dianna’ which I saw in the West End, was alarming and slammed by establishment theatre critic Charles Douglas Home. He and others killed it off .

Meghan is not in Dianna’s league. The latter turned a lot of us old Royalists towards republicanism. To liken Meghan to Princess Dianna is an insult to the latter’s memory but typical of the superficial upper middle class folk who dominate mainstream media. Their publications are patronising, aimed at ignorant gossip orientated simple folk. Robert Cook

Towering Stupidity October 30th 2019

London Fire Brigade has been slammed by the official report into the Grenfell fire tragedy. The brigade’s boss refuses to quit before next year, when she will retire at the age of 50, with a £2 miilion pension package at public expense.

Fire boss Dany Cotton is unrepentant, saying she would do it all the same way again- rather reminiscent of Tony Blair’s words about setting fire to the Middle East. then getting the peace envoy’s job.

The fire brigade has been accused of systematic failures. Cotton deviated from the usual practice of evacuating the tower when the fire had not long started, not anticipating the way fires spread once neighbouring sections of buildings reach a critical temperature. The Bradford City football ground fire was another example of this idiocy in 1988.

At least 79 people died in the 2017 blaze, possibly more. Labour’s Dianne Abbott successfully blocked revelation of Grenfell resident’s immigration status as many were representative of minorities in London where homelessness abounds alongside the super rich.

We live in what are interesting times, when public figures consistently deny reponsibility, like recruits like and positive discrimination rules. Cressida Dick is another not so shining example, walking into the top London Police job and committing another massive blunder, from which her and her underlings will ‘learn lessons’. This tends to mean how not to get caught out again. Robert Cook

New World Disorder October 30th 2019

George Bush Senior made smug elitist speeches after the first Gulf War in 1991. His message was that this was the beginning of a ‘new world order.’ The Bush family are one of the U.S’s richest, wealth deriving from oil.

The ‘Obsever ‘ newspaper published a full page article after that British backed war, called ; The Leaked Pentagon Papers. These papers explained how the Iraqi Ambassador went to the Pentagon asking what they would do if his country invaded Kuwait. He was told ‘nothing.’

Sadam Hussein, who had fought a seven year proxy war against Iran, for the U.S took this as a green light to annex Kuwait. The U.S and their aged parent Britain wasted no time going to war with Iraq. using Saudi Arabia as a launch pad. Hussein had been flooding the world oil markets with cheap oil to rebuild his war damaged country.

The U.S and other oil producing countries did not like this. Bush had been backed by U.S oil billionaires and needed an oil crisis to re inflate prices. The Western Media portrayed Kuwait as a violated defenceless democracy rather than the nasty little dictatorship western lackey it actually was and still is.

I was taught that humans, like all animals, need food, clothing and shelter, then the opportunity and security for reproduction. The difficulty is that a very small minority are taking most of the resources and benefits from advancing technology. Across the world we see poverty, hardship, religious bigotry/escapism, alcoholism, drug addiction, crime violence, people/ smuggling and war.

Poor people see how rich people live, want the same and blame other poor people, on the basis of gender and/or religion if they can’t get it. They get into the back of trucks run by people smugglers in search of the promised land. Rich and powerful in Britain wring their hands talking and crying about a tragedy their system promotes. In the words of the old English folk song, ‘It’s the rich what gets the pleasure, it’s the poor what gets the blame.’

The British and global elite have revived the war against the racism which is rising because of their policies. They need distractions. Promoting LGBTQ and the right to worship God in anyway you like, is another diversion.

Laws against hate speech makes the elite look good. They divide, rule, generate hate and conflict, prop up or change regimes for the benefit of the new world disorder. Life is ultimately very simple. Like the current fires in California and across the world, pile up the combustible material and set it alight. The masses do not matter to the elite, except for voting fodder in fake democracies, covered by fake media, and as cheap labour.

Hard Times- or not? October 28th 2019

My readers know of my love hate relationship with BBC Radio Four, especially ‘Woman’s Hour.’ However, leaving aside its feminazism, it covers interesting stuff sometimes.

Today it dealt with a dramatic rise in young people seeking sex therapy over the last 12 months, from 1400 to 4.500. Obviously one wonders why?

Inevitably it is all the young man’s fault, according to Woman’s Hour and its experts. He has watched too much pornography, so when he meets a real human female she is not exciting enough. Worse than that he may objectify her and try to treat her like a porn actress.

It was admitted in the programme that females watch porn too, but only so as to keep up with the blokes and their expectations. It was said that both genders have issues with their bodies. Vaginismus and erectile dysfunction are key issues. This despite sex and gender education starting at nursery!

Sexual hypocrisy is an ancient tome. Writer Ben Elton lampooned the esteemed 17th century diarist Samuel Pepys in his book ‘Identity Crisis.’ This is an excellent read, making clear that Pepys abused his high postition to abuse females from the lower orders. Many babies were the result. Has anything really changed – Prince Andrew and Epstein spring to mind today.

Nature struggles with huiman interference. It wants to be binary. Our religious moral code argues that God made us in his own image, when in truth humans made God in their own image.

If humans cannot sexually excite one another in a nice caring way, then there is a big problem for the future. Feminism goes on about empowering women and positive discrimination. Ethnic minority males escape opprobrium because they are still officially part of the underclass – their misery and lack of opportunity is the white man’s fault not their own.

With divorce at record levels and absent fathers, is it any wonder that young white males are poisoned by internet porn while mum is finding herself with her career , new boy or girl friends. I think we have a sexual revolution which is certainly not pretty nor sensible. Robert Cook

Trucking It Up October 27th 2019

Trucks, or lorries as we used to call them, have gotten a lot bigger in my lifetime. They have also become faster and technically easier to drive. Most new ones have automatic gears and power steering, really easing the work load.

For all of little Greta’s adult led rantings about the environment, she shows no awareness of political realities. Blaming the little people achieves nothing other than making it look as if the young are being consulted. They are just being conned.

My generation of anti war protestors are now supporters of caranage in the Middle East, virtue signalling and agonising over the deaths of 39 would be illegal immigrants into the U.K. These Chinese people were ‘looking for a better life when they ended up dead in the back of a fridge lorry in Essex.

While on the road yesterday, I listened to the smug self righteous carefully chosen panel members on BBC’s ‘Any Questions.’ They were speaking from Portsmouth – Britain’s only island city. Facing the question of Would the British Public have been so upset if these economic migrants had not died?

The answers were smug self satisfied and long winded. The word ‘tragedy’ was used a lot. The obvious answer to that pompous question is that if they had not died we would not know they were here.

A seconday question was ‘How do we stop this happening again?’ The answer is simple. Either create tougher border controls with powers to repatriate or make a public announcement to the world that anyone can come to this country for a better life, regardless of age, personal history, qualifications, skills or numbers. There is no other answer. Robert Cook

War Of The Words October 24th 2019

I am open minded about Brexit. All sides of the argument are very clear to me. However, I find the intrusion of children’s book publisher Ladybird into the melee rather disconcerting.

As I have explained elsewhere on this site, I was punished during my teaching career for raising environmental concerns about nuclear power. I was accused of politicising by Bucks Education Chiefs.

So why is it OK for a children’s book to take such a negative and misleading line against Brexit, as we see below.? Robert Cook

Numbers Posted October 24th 2019

As I have said many times, everything comes down to numbers, with nature aspiring to the binary. Of course there is the unseeable currently unknown world of dark or anti matter. So it follows that some forces are hidden.

Focusing on what we believe is known, binary has to be the working model for humanity and the whole world with infinity beyond. When I taught maths I ridiculed teaching about binary numbers without explaining the conetxt or uses. We lose a lot of inquiring minds because we seem to teach stuff to tests.

When scientists decided it would be possible to spilt atoms they worked at getting the job done. The resulting nuclear fission has held countries to ransom as well as providing controlled fission and heat. Humans are led by vainglorious bullies and other politcal types. These people are in it for power, money and pleasure.

Encouraging a religious multi faith revival in the name of protecting Muslims who have been divided and ruled by the elite for many decades, is about controlled division.

Looking across the diverse world of humanity, that control is waning. The heat is rising. There have been world wars before and will be again- assuming you do not think we have one already. The latest news is Kurds and Turkish migrants fighting each other on the streets of Berlin.

Like football, war is ultimately binary and their are different leagues. Human savagery knows no age, gender or ethnicity. Like the earth’s crust relative to the rest,civilisation is wafer thin holding back the magma, potential earthquakes and volcanoes. Religion won’t stop it, rather it will make matters worse.

Democratic or Police State ? Posted October 24th 2019

When Disareli extended Britain’s franchise to include skilled male artisans in 1867, his colleague Robert Lowe commented : ‘We must now set about educating our masters.’ The first state education act followed three years later. It was based on the limited idea of teaching the ‘Three Rs’, namely: Reading ‘Riting and ‘Rithmatic.’ In the same year Bismarck hmiliated Germany in the Franco Prussian War to complete the unification of all German States, his Prussia replacing Austria as their leader.

Bismarck had a more inclusive and exciting version of education, but they ended up fighting the whole world twice over. Defeat was ienveitable but the EU came to rescue their ambitions. Their leader Angela Merkel has her own idea of democracy which includes an open door to migrants from war zones.

Those war zones are primarily due to Anglo- U.S illgeal wars destabilising the Middle East, right up to the North African frontier. British people at the bottom do not understand what has happened to them and why. Voting leave in the EU refrendum seemed like a way to better things, just as it did to the 39 dead illegal immigrants found in the back of a juggernaut in Essex yesterday.

Briatin is divided between left wing comfortable people, many rampant liberals and the long suffering poorly educated masses. That underclass- lumpenproletariat as Marx called it- hear the word democracy bandied about by our elite media folk. They are beginning to realise their views do not count. They must listen to their betters who represent them at home and abroad. Right wing extermism should come as no surprise, adding to Islamic outrage and ever more excuses for an expanding police force to spy on us rather than deal with conventional crime.

The word used to describe Britain’s political system has changed. A new word is added. It is a Representative Democracy. It has been a PR process of oppression, just like in Orwell’s ‘Animal Farm’ where the slogan over the pig stye changes from ‘All animals are equal’ to ‘All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others.’ Robert Cook October 24th 2019

From Nuclear War Fears to the New Clear War about sex October 20th 2019

Back in the 1980s, when my sons were young, I used to worry about nuclear power stations blowing up and the arms race. The dangers of a sex war had not occured to me.

Raised from the age of 11 by my mother, with my great aunt next door and my dominant very clever older sister, it never occured to me that females were inferior, though the class structure in town made me aware of my family’s social inferiority.

Social mobility was visualised as the way forward for Britain in the post war age. Labour got elected for its egalitarian promises in 1945, to the chagrin of patronising heavy drinking chain cigar smoking Winston Churchill. Churchill actually believed his bombstic words had won the war for them, freeing them single handedly from the Nazi terror.

There are people older than me who still believe that. I grew up with agnostic parents. Their early teachings included doubts about politicans.

Politicians push for laws to suit themselves. Social mobility has been in decline since Thatcher came to power in the 1970s. Comprehensive Schools and exams for all or sack the teacher for failing to help kids cheat the pathetic system, were already doing their bit to block able working class kids before paranoid Thatcher determined to have a national limiting mind numbing curriculum for all schools except the posh private ones.

An alternative route out of poverty, post war, was to excel at football. Brains in your feet could earn a man millions by the end of the 1970s. Paul Gascoigne ‘Gazza’ proved that point. But as a hotel porter famously asked another British star footballer, ‘What went wrong?’

Gazza had a hard start in the depressed north east of England. On the way up, he left his young sweetheart for worldly divorced Cheryl. The rest of that story is history. Rows with her turned into domestic abuse stories in the Daily Mirror. Gazza’s drinking ran out of control, his career declined.

So 18 months ago he kissed who he called ‘a fat lass’ on the lips, on a train , while visibly drunk. A passenger told the girl she had been sexually assaulted and police tracked Gazza to an hotel. He was charged with sex assault and battery. When defending himself in court, the prosecutor called Gascoigne a liar.

The former England start, Gazza, 52, claimed he was comforting the woman who had been the victim of verbal abuse. He kissed her to boost her confidence. Mimicking his famous tears photo while helping England, he wept as he was cleared.

Since there is no doubt he kissed her, was this not unwanted and strange therapy. Gazza should consider himself very lucky to have got off in this age of hyper sensitivity to those we used to call the fairer, even weaker sex. It cannot be the case that accosting strangers and kissing them is alright. Gazza is out of touch.

The iconic image of a sailor in New York kissing a stranger on VJ day, led to him being tracked down in his eighties and accused of a sex offence. Men should recognise the danger of being over familiar with women and not presume to offer any kind of comfort unless they ask for it in writing, signed by official witnesses.

This kissing took place in a public space. More and more cameras and police rights to enter your home for spurious reassons and ‘perceptions’ means men do not really have any private spaces. They need to grow up and learn this- so does Gazza. There is a NEW CLEAR WAR NOW.

Had my say, had my day October 20th 2019

I have run out of things to say about Brexit, but worry not, mainstream media will never stop coming up with new phrases and cliches to describe what is going on regards Brexit.

Unusually for Theresa May, she came straight to the point yesterday. Urging the House of Commins to back a Brexit ‘deal’ only slightly worse than her own. Thus, she said in exasperated tones: ‘The British people will be asking whether we were being honest when we offered them a vote on whether or not to leave the EU.’

There is a great deal of arrogance about the British ruling elite and a refusal to confront the reasons why a majority voted to leave.

In my time I have endured many lectures, read many biographies and other books on politics and inflicted my lectures on others in my writing and teaching roles. I have also lived a very long time, travelled a bit, met and talked to many people.

Having spent some years as a senior member of my local council, I was put forward for selection as a Lib Dem Parlaimentary candidate. I started out at the bottom. Thanks to the corrupt police lies about me and feminist law bias, I am back at the bottom again. My life has been an interesting journey. unlike most poeple in British politics and media, my persepctive is not simply theoretical and judgemental,

The simple truth about Brexit is that it was not meant to happen. Cameron wanted the vote as a mass display of support for a corrupt gravy train Europe which he and his government were going to do nothing to reform. Old Etonian Cameron meant to use an expected ‘yes’ vote to take the U.K further into the EU, with membership of the Euro and greater participation into its police state practices of which his elite are so fond because they fear threats from the bottom- from the slave wage masses. These people are anything but diverse, but they call diverse because that is ‘divide and rule.’

Divide and rule ought to be more correctly called ‘divide and fool.’ All this repeated talk about a ‘deal’ is about fooling and mystifying people. Posh media folk patronise and keep saying the same stuff, but never the truth. A good deal is not possible. Barnier said at the outset: ‘Britain cannot have its cake and eat it.’ It cannot be in the Customs Union, with all of its rules, and outside at ther same time.

Because of this Northern Ireland and its relationship with the South is an intractable problem. So the strategy is to stall until people lose interest and the con can be completed- remaining as BRINO with no further peoples’ influence on how Europe works, just diktas.

When the worst happens, the media will tell us that was what we voted for. Protest in a meaningful way and the ever expanding U.K police force will crack your head open if need be. Remember what they did to Ian Tomlinson and he was just walking home from work.

The Curse it is Cast October 19th 2018

I am writing this editorial just before going out into the cold dark early morning at 1.30 am to drive a truck for many miles and all day long. For me and many others life is hard and often dangerous. When the elite, protected by police and secure buildings- be they office or home- judge the masses they show just how out of touch they are.

That is why they are getting so much wrong as they cling to elite privileges and fight change that does not suit them. They decide what is right or wrong, bringing back nonsense about religion and God just like the tyrants of old. That is why today’s Brexit debate will be very entertaining as New Labour / Opposition and female MPs will prioritise virtue signalling

So we see riots and protests across Europe, including the ludicrous Extinction Rebellion folk who haven’t a clue what the real problems are- backed by super stars who think they are exceptions to any eco rules.

Riots and rebellions seem to be everywhere, from Latin America to Hong Kong and across Europe. All we hear from Western elites is how bad these rioters are. There is a common factor to all of it, money and the power it gives the ruling classes. Overpopulation is one of the key issues that it is deemed racist to mention.

There is no doubt that the arrogance of so called leadership in Britain and Europe caused the Brexit Crisis because the EU does not work for ordinary people. Brexit signals danger to the elite because other Euro nations are uneasy to say the least. It costs a lot of money to keep the masses in order and the elite safe in their palaces, offices and mansions.

The fall out from U.S, British and French post colonial wars has released a mass immigration issue that can not be smoothed over by the slogan of diversity. In the words of Bob Dylan, ‘The line it is drwan, the curse it is cast, the slow one now will later be fast, as the present now will later be past, for the times they are a changin’ ‘

The Right to Die October 17th 2019

This poor girl has been looking for help for the last two years. Ordinary impressionable men and women of the Western world are being driven mad by elite propoganda, and very nasty doctors, about diversity and non binary is good nonsense. For most people nature is binary.

Normal Women want husbands and children without being policed by morons in blue uniforms, feminists, and so called health experts- Psychiatrists are whores as R,D Laing said they were. They prop up our hypocritical excuse for a society / democacy.. These dreadful patronising people are medicalisisng peoples’ unhappiness.

As for the God squad, they should keep their bigotry to themselves. I and many others, claim the right not to worship this 3000 year old political bull-hit. Society has driven this girl mad, labelled her, making her life even more intolerable. God doesn’t care what happens to this girl, nor does society. So she should get what she wants, not life in ‘the cuckoos nest’. Robert Cook

For more on this subject see the Psychology page- but note paranoid personality is diagnosed as a medical condition, i.e psychiatric, not psychological. That means the system people see it as a brain structure and hormone issue. It is far easier to blind people with science and justify powerful medication that way.

Hate Speech October 16th 2019

Many years ago, whilst lecturing in Sociology at Aylesbury College of Further Education, I recommened students read a book called ‘Poverty the Forgotten Englishman.’

Material and Educational/Cultural poverty usually go hand in hand. Meally mouthed and smug British Parlaimentarians care not for the British underclass. They talk jargon and with virtue signalling cliches.

Yesterday the murdered MP Jo Cox’s sister was talking to a House of Commons Select Committe about the tragedy and the consensus was harsher punishments with more vigilance to protect vulnerable MPs. Questions why MPs are held in such contempt are never asked.

If memory serves me correctly, former Oxfam Charity worker Jo Cox’s maiden speech focused on the need to help more people in Africa. Correct me if I am wrong, but one of her northern constituents asked her for help.

He was being forced to leave his council house to make way for a migrant family. This was painful for him because he had lived there with his mother all of his life, until she died. Ms Cox would not help him so he made a gun and shot here.

I am not suggesting that it is alright to shoot an MP because they won’t help you. If I thought like that I would have shot John Bercow by now! But, as I say, poverty is material and educational. More and more people feel helpless. MPs are, these days, boastfull and generally no help to their constituents.

Their patronising display of contempt for the public over Brexit has made them feel vulnerable, hence they want more legal and police protection. In all my lfe and studies of politics, I have never seen such a shameless self centred display from our overpaid politicians. To speak against this elite is to risk falling foul of their hate speech laws and a long nasty jail sentence. Robert Cook

Freedom and Power October 15th 2019

After my freedom fighting ( were the British elite and their minions fighting for or against freedom at that time? Discuss ) father was wounded at Dunkirk in 1940, he had to transfer to the Military Police or leave the service he had grown used to. The more we do something the stronger and bigger the brain pathway we develop. So, in 1945 he left the army, but the army never left him. He got used to taking orders and trusting his ‘superiors.’

He died aged 41 because he trusted his betters and worked like a slave for a pittance. I was 11 at the time and accustomed to material poverty during his two year terminal illness and our lack of money.

During the short time I knew him, I learned a lot about woodwork, electronics and how engines worked. I came to know about lorries, or trucks as we call them in immitation of the U.S culture this country started mimicking and kow towing to during World War Two.

Like many children I had a tendency to question and break rules. As a tired out working class father with only a rule book set in his head from army days, he feared for my future. When I argued about bedtime his stock phrase was ‘You are a liberty taker.’ As Elton John observed in his memoir ‘Me’, those were the days- the 1950s- when parents instilled discipline via a good beating.

My parents were what used to be called cockneys from poor and harsh backgrounds. My maternal grandmother died when her only daughter was two weeks old- in 1924. My father’s favourite verbal insult was to call me a country bumpkin because I was the only member of my family to be born in Buckinghamshire. So I was brought up feeling like an outsider alongside my spolied and very clever cockney sister. All through Primary school teachers, who had had the delight of teaching this gifted girl, reminded me how I lacked her gifts.

This brief extract from my early life may explain why, although I spent many years working as an authority figure, I never liked or trusted the authorities. Had I trusted myself I probably would never worked amongst them in the first place.

The basic problem with aithorities- which we obviously need- is that they breed corruption fed by the reality that like recruits like. As a young man I dressed the part and talked my way through the interviews. There were those I frustrated because I would not accept their mentoring me for better things. Only now do I appreciate their efforts. Obviously I took my young years of studying philosophy too seriously. I was very naive when I started out, but with a tendency to rebel. Truth mattered, and sadly still does.

Rebellion is redolent throughout history, but most people conform. As I have said before, ‘Freedom is the recognition of necesstiy’. I read those immprtal words daubed on the stark concrete walkway walls of the qUniversity of East Anglia when I stepped up from my student residences in the autumn of 1973. A similar viewpoint was expressed by Kris Kristofersen in his lyric: ‘Freedoms just another name for nothing left to lose and nothing don’t mean nothing when its free.’

And so I come to the point of this little piece of writing. Yesterday, leaders of the revolt against Spanish rule in Catalonia received long sentences for sedition. This sparked violent protests against the Spanish authorities who came down violently against them. That is what police are for across Europe and beyond. They do not exist to fight what we used to call crime.

The police exist to protect the powerful, crush dissent and naive ideas of freedom fighting. Freedom of mind is to recognise this truth. To confront it will most likely lead to a criminal record, injury, death, incarceration and defeat. In the words of philosopher Bertrand Russell, ‘ Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.’ The only power stronger than the corrupt elite’s is nature. The elite are at war with that, confronting it, relying on science nerds , propoganda and the selfish survival instincts of the ignorant masses- which in my view includes Extinction Rebellion. We have an on going subtle world war, focused on the Middle East, because of this. it has one Hell of a carbon footprint and Britain’s RAF boasting it now has women flying the bombers, in the name of equal opportunity to be a moron, is nothing to boast about

Rival camps are forming. Russia is now sidling up to vile Saudi Arabia, the war on Yemen could not exist without Britain’s support, Britain and U.S express outrage at the Kurds accepting the Syrian government’s support and Trump has recently announced sanctions against Turkey, as he has done against China and Iran.

This is just a part of their war against nature, accting as if humans are all that matters on earth, all in the name of a Judaic/Christian/Islam God that has only existed in peoples slavish minds for about 15 generations. That triumvariate has inordiate power to corrupt and justify this war on nature, where the only freedom on offer is death.

Robert Cook October 15th 2019

The Crime Minister October 14th 2019

I do not recall Prime Minister Thatcher having much to say about toughening up on crime fighting. She was too busy making industry ‘leaner and fitter’ freeing up the City of London, turning education into a form of policing through the mind numbing national curriculum, destroying working families, raising unemployment, enriching a rich minority creating the me first culture ( the seed of ‘Me Too ‘ ) selling state assets off cheap and giving the police the opportunity to practice for riot control at the striking coal miner’s picket lines.

In the process, she destroyed the social fabric as we knew it and launched two wars- including the first Gulf War for the sake of UK And U.S oil interests.

She was a hard act to follow but New Labour’s Tony Blair was more than up to the job. It was not difficult for him to outshine Thatcher’s insipid successor John Major. The biggest robberies of the Major era involved the banks and city of London. No problem breaking laws when you are the law maker. Unfortunately for Johnson he is not in a position to make laws, but he is trying to impress with his Queen’s Speech.

Like Tony Blair- the man many would like to see tried for war crimes, but nothing has ever stuck to the man Private Eye magazine nicknamed Teflon Tony– Boris Johnson sees himself not so much as the Crime Minister, as Parliament would have us believe- but the Crime Fighting Minister.

Thus he has come out with the same old stuff about tougher and longer sentences with a focus on domestic and harassment crimes- the latter all female vote winning post Thatcher crimes. There is no mention of tough laws against women who commit domestic violence or lie about all forms of sex attacks. That, officially, doesn’t happen so doesn’t need laws.

Boris is now promising 20,000 more police officers to help his cause cleaning up crime infested anti social diverse Britain. Police sources have said that to meet this target over the next few years would require at least 200,000 applicants because they calculate that only one in ten applicants will have the special qualities needed to police modern Britain. One can easily imagine what these qualities are. I believe Portsmouth University offers the police special courses on the subject, awarding a BSc at the end of it.

There are very serious questions as to what these much sought after qualities are. The judge dealing with former Government Chief Whip Andrew Mitchell’s libel case said : ‘The officer who said you called him a Pleb could not have been lying because he has no imagination and so is perfectly suited to his job as a police constable.

In that same Plebgate incident an officer was jailed for lying that he saw and heard Mitchell calling the officers bl–dy plebs. The officer was actually at home in Aylesbury at the time of the incident.

Matters got worse. In order to clear the adverse record against him, Mitchell agreed to see three officers from three overlapping police forces in his constituency. One of these forces was West Mercia. Mitchell met them in his constituency offices in Sutton Colfield. Mitchell’s wife did not trust the police so advised him to secretly record the meeting.

The three plain clothes officers came out of the meeting strutting eagerly up to the waiting media crews and their satellite dishes. Then the West Mercia Officer, DS Ken Macall said that Mitchell admitted calling the officers plebs. Mitchell proved them liars.

A West Mercia Police Inspector, described as church going was deployed to investigate. He concluded that the officers were guilty of misconduct and should fce disciplinary proceedings, only to have his conclusions rejected by the force’s Deputy Chief Constable Simon Chesterman.

It came to light that Mitchell was known to have raised concerns about police overtime hours in his constituency, which as said, included West Mercia. He was out to raise effieciency. The Crime Commissioner for Dyffed Powys wrote an article on the matter for the Mail. He named Chesterman and refered to a feral police force.

I find it nauseating every time an officer has a mishap, accident in a police car during a dangerous pursuit or is killed on the job , that we have to hear the stuff about heroics. A hero is someone who does something he doesn’t have to for the sake of others. There may be a few of this type getting through the selection process if they are lucky.

In his book ‘Line of Fire’ one such honest senior police officer Brian Paddick wrote. ‘It wasn’t my homosexuality that caused me problems in the police, it was my honesty.’ He quotes Mark Twain who said: ‘Always tell the truth, that way you do not have to remember what you said.

Today a West Indian man arrested back in 1972, with his colleague by a Corrupt lying Metropolitan DS Police officer – who went on to die in jail for his part in planning a burgalary on police time- has won his right to appeal his conviction. He and a colleague were known as the Oval Two, and fought for black rights. The police are an appealing career choice for would be criminals and perspectivist thinkers ( See Social theory and Social Structure by R K Merton ). Thus it has been know to attarct all sorts of bigots, including racists.

The Oval Two were bailed for 8 months and did 8 months in jail. They had been followed by a group of officers led by the DS, falsely accused of shoplifting, attacked on the tube station, taken to a police station where a confession was beaten out of them. As said : that was back in 1972.! The jury automatically believed the police. There were no other witnesses. It has taken him all these years to win a right to appeal against his conviction.

Paddick writes near the beginning of his book about when he was a probationary constable. He said he was driven by a senior contable to a dance hall in a very West Indian part of South London on a Saturday night. While sitting there outside the main doors, Paddick wondered what he and his old colleague could possibly do to break up any fights.

Then a double decker bus went past and the senior man slammed the car into gear and chased after it.. As he drove with his flashing lights on, he said ; ‘Did you see that?’ ‘What?’ Paddick asked. ‘That bus ran a red light’. ‘No I didn’t see it.’ said Paddick. ‘Well you will say you saw it when you get back to the station. Two police officer’s words count for the truth against members of the public.’

I have my reasons for being interested in police corruption and how their system works. The head of the police college and the HM Inspector of Constabularies have raised questions about the wrong people getting promoted. One force, Cleveland, was described recently as not fit for purpose and the Met have been involved in a serious cover up regarding lies about a VIP sex abuse ring. This is the second occasion when Cressida Dick’s competence has been thrown intio question.

I could go on and it is time someone joined it all up wrote a book exposing the British Police for the instiutionally corrupt organisatioin that they are. It is a place of ritualistic behaviour, a quasi military hierarchy prone to bullying anyone who doesn’t seem to fit or blows a whistle- regardless of race or gender-where like recruits like, whatever the race or colour. Clevealnd forced reforming Sue Simm out of her job as CC and have had six new CCs in as many years.

Corrupt personalities may well be what they will be looking for in that 200,000- whatever they are really looking for, senior officers have too much power and independence so they will wraptheir actions all up in jargon. It has been argued that the recruitmenmt process has something to do with why the British police solve less than 6% of robberies.

They also have a reputation for victimising people they do not like, witholding and corrupting evidence. The recent Metropolitan Police scandal has seen the lead officer in the VIP case promoted and the official police watchdog coming out with what is widely regarded as a cover up or white wash. This body has been renamed the IPOC instead of the IPCC, but is still very much a part of the police system and at best a mailing service- old wine in a new bottle, or should I say Bluebottle!.

So if Crime Minsiter Boris Johnson really wants to make his mark he should do what no other Prime Minister or Home Swecretary has ever dared or wanted to do : STOP THROWING MONEY AT THE POLICE, REFORM THEM, FORCE AN EFFICIENCY DRIVE, GET A TRULY INDEPENDENT WATCHDOG WITH POWER TO ENFORCE PROSECUTIONS AND ENFORCE SEVERE PUNISHMENTS FOR POLICE WRONG DOING AND CUT CHIEF OFFICERS PARASITICAL PERKS.

The ludicrously outdated ranking system also needs looking at because it rewards those gifted at what the sociologist Irving Goffman called impression management. It is a system which has ACC’s doing little more than writing appraisals, going to conferences and courses, junkeys in expensive hotels and playing golf with those they suck up to.

Good impressions of smarming for promotion are not the way to impress the wider long suffering wider public, though the well off who see the police as their guard dogs will go on fawning to them. It is hard pressed working people who experience the reality of everyday British policing and it is not nice for most of us. Robert Cook

Oily World October 13th 2019

Britain is the island whose people changed the world. Henry VIII’s Protestant Reformation in 1536 loosened the chains of religion. The English Civil War loosened the chains of the British Monarchy. This country went on to rule the world, exporting the industrial revolution and plundering -with the connivance of indigenous elites- its empire for the necessary materials.

Inevitably the British elite grew ever more arrogant and corrupt. The North American colonies revolted agains excruciating taxes, breaking away to form the United States- U.S.A. Slave owner George Washington, whose family came from Northmaptonshire in England, became its first President.

The U.S.A expanded west carrying out a massive genocide against the native American Indians and continuing to import slaves from Africa. As industry advanced, Britain and the U.S.A developed a mutual interest in the Middle East, buying off local rulers to serve their insatiable demands. Saudi Arabia was a British invention serving Western interests and practising religious hypocrisy ever since.

It is ironical that the region which gave birth to the so called great religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam- with all its factions as the politicians within them fought for power over the masses- has so much oil wealth, poverty and ignorance . It is almost funny that the Middle Eastern masses do not see who is pulling the strings.

Do people in my part of the world know what is really going on? Arguably the elite does, but one wonders. The bare faced cheek and hypocrisy of presidential hopeful Joe Biden and his son says it all. Their first concern is for lining their own pockets and using mainstream media as their oily interface with the public.

Maybe the masses have just given up. Maybe they are inherently stupid, not seeing the connection with the fact that the U.S.A has spent $1 billion dollars encouraging and supporting Syrian rebels over the last ten years. Is it any wonder that Britain and the U.S’ so called democratic leader’s maligned Julian Assange for exposing their war crimes and want him locked up forever. They have Chelsea Manning back in jail for refusing to testify against Assange.

Climate change protests and little Greta are widely applauded because they relieve tensions and make leaders look tolerant. False hope is given. But get too close to what is causing the real problems and why, then the system comes down like the proverbial ton of bricks.

Wars and human population growth have massive carbon footprints. Carbon emissions are a consequence of human greed and ignorance, not a cause. The elite do not want the lower orders to know that. Just keep praying, drinking, having sex and taking drugs- prescription or otherwise- and you’ll feel fine.

Venezueala, Ecuador, Iran, Syria, Iraq, and Iran are all examples of the insane Western elite foreign policy. Russia, not a land run by angels, is the scapegoat, the root source of all the smoke and mirrors.

Ireland is the excuse for Britain’s elite faking Brexit, keeping Britain as part of the club but getting rid of our awakward Euro MPs. Britain and the U.S have done so much to stoke up and perpetuate islamic terrorism, rather like a doctor who breaks bones then expects to be admired for botched efforts to mend them.

Lefties Monopolise Morals

October 10th 2019

A sample page from the above satire for kids. The left cannot stand dissent. If anyone says anything against them they scream to no platform anyone who says or writes anything they don’t like.

I think these images speak for themselves. The Liberal left live in an expensive and well paid cocoon. While driving back from London this morning, BBC’s Radio 4 luvvies told the sad tale of how an organic farmer will have to plough under his valuable crop of organic carrots because no deal Brexit will mean they won’t get certificated for export to Europe.

It would not occur to this greedy fellow that there are desperate people in this country who have to scavenge in food banks. So he would rather let them rot than feed the needy or help prices fall. That is what the EU is about, profit for the privileged. Robert Cook

Talking about my medication, we’re one f—ed up generation October 9th 2019.

Back in 1986 Bucks County Council Education Department tried to sack me for politicising. My crime was involving three second years ( nowadays called ninth years ) and a sixth former in the production and radio broadcast of a song inspired by the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Station explosion, which resulted in massive radiation contamination across Northern Europe. At the time Thatcher’s greed loving Tory Government were out to defend nuclear power and get rid of troublesome striking coal miners who had held the country to ransom.

Back in those days we radicals had a generation above us to blame. That was comforting when we felt like throwing a Greta like tantrum. One line in my authority vexing song was ‘We’re gonna grow older in a minute but we wanted to be kids all our lives.’ ‘

As in the words of the song. ‘Life was all so simple then.’ Now mental illness is at record levels and gender bending has turned into gender swapping. For more on that read a book called ‘The feminisation of nature.’ If you think that is a good thing, check out another book, ‘The female sexual abuse of children.’

I digress. With both of my parents dead, I fel very much alone on this planet, and far too responsible. We baby boomers have a lot to answer for, but the greedy selfish Thatcher generation led the way. I went to university when it was a privilege for 3% of the population, not a rite of passage and a production line. We have graduates now who are remedial students, buying essays on line for continuous assessment degrees. As long as they are sufficiently superfical and well connected they will get cushy jobs. If not the best they might hope for is a call centre position.

Thus it is not surprising that we have record numbers of young drug addicts, alcoholics and suicides. Girls are told to fight stereotypes and become fighter pilots, dropping more bombs on the Middle east for no good reason other than pandering to the greedy few. People from my genration are now in the top jobs and they think they know it all. As Descarte opined: ‘ Cogito Ergo Sum.’ By this I mean, they are what they think they are. They have the power, leaving the lower orders to wage internecine ( self destructive ) gender, religious and race wars. Robert Cook

Sex Lies And Politics – SLAP October 8th 2019

If hypocrisy was a scarce commodity the British establishment elite could promote package and sell it round the world. Oh silly me. they have done that for years, buikding an empire and losing it in the process. Now they are part of an even greater empire- what some disrespectfully call ‘The Fourth Reich.’

How dare people be allowed to demean such a noble enterprise as the EU, it has made so many rich people richer? Of course there have been casualties, like bombing people out of their countries, killing them stoking up religious differences to divide and rule, destroying industries, pricing people out of being able to by stuff so the rich get richer, and creating record levels of homelessness, drink and drug abuse. But it has all been in a good cause, so we do not want to lose it.

The rich must be allowed to get richer, carry on jet setting while blaming climate change on the masses. After all it is obviously them with their old cars and penchant for package holidays on a cramped cheap flight.

As for that Boris Johnson, he should get a visit from our ever so self righteous police- more to come on the police later this week. A Labour member of the London Assembly has requested the boys and girls in blue look into Boris’s afairs.

Of course we do not have conspiracies in this great country, do we? A CIA boss told us all a few years ago that only nutters believe such nonsense.

So there is no conspiracy to get rid of PM Boris without following due constitutional process of getting a vote of no confidence, followed by an election. It is obvious isn’t it, Boris Johnson is a liar because the Parliamentarians and luvvie media snobs say so. No need for evidence these days, with so much crime and pressure on police resources/

That is why we should be so grateful for the story and revelations about Boris on the front page of today’s ‘The Metro.’ The headline reads ‘Pole Dancing, The PM And Me.’ This is all about Boris making far too many visits to tech boss Jennifer Acuri. Of course the hypocritcal ‘Metro’ prefers to focus on her years working as a pole dancer rather than her serious business which Boris allegedly favoured while London Mayor. Labour’s John McDonnell sseems furious and priapasmic on the subject.

Funny that when you recall how New Labour’s heroic working class hero turned Deputy Prime Minister, John Prescott, was hailed as something of a lad when he took advanatage of his young diary secretary. The political bruiser loved having her stripped to stockings and suspenders for pleasure in his private office. This rather large bit of a lad eventually got elevated to The House of Lords. Prescott orignally denied the affair.

The most famous case of political sex and lies was John Profumo in 1962. Profumo was Minister for War ( They called a spade spade at the time, no pussyfooting about him being a Minister for Defence and soldier peacekeepers ) testing out his weapons system with young Christine Keeler. Obviously he lied to Parliament when the matter came to light.

I can’t wait to see what happens next. Merkel told Boris today that she doesn’t think a deal at all possible unless Northern Ireland remains in the customs union. Meanwhile the liberal Guardian reports on a left wing think tank’s conclusions that a no deal Brexit will kill people. Well that is what people voted for- do not believe the lies that it wasn’t so. Cameron should have thought of that.

He didn’t because he is the essence of what is seriously wrong with British politics. Cameron was, and still is as his new book testifies, totally out of touch supercilious and patronising. He expected an endorsement for EU membership and ever closer union.

Now he and the rest of the nasty privileged virtue signalling elite will do anything to stop Boris going ahead with ‘no deal.’ With true British elitist cum feminist hypocrisy, they have moved on to sex. So we have it, sex, lies and politics- SLAP for short..

Premier Inn? No! Premier Out!

October 7th 2019

Trendy PC lefties just can’t accept Brexit. That is why they go on and on about ‘We are not leaving without a deal.’ It is very simple. Leaving Europe with a deal, particularly being trapped in the customs union, with any version of the Irish backstop. is not leaving. It is the worst of all worlds.

The touchy feelie feminine and feminsed members of the British Parliament have no obvious idea of how corrupt their internationalist super state is. Nor do they seem to appreciate that this favourite member, Britain, not only pays the union a fortune, it helps the U.S.A bomb people out of the Middle East and has opened the door to North African migrants.

We are not allowed to talk about this. Laws are made up every few minutes to keep us under control, it seems. Britain’s elite are cheer leaders in the war against the so called far right that their foreign policy has caused. Multi culture and diversity is the pampered elite’s recurring mantra as they patronise the unwashed underclass they find so disgusting for voting leave- against their wishes.

Boris Johnson is labelled a populist rabble rouser, unfit for office. When I was in Charlotte St, Central London this morning, I picked up a copy of ‘The Metro.’ The newspaper is a right on freebie that it is cool to be seen reading .

I could not belive my eyes when I read the headline. Forget the really important story of how the so called Independent Office for Complaints Against the Police has given the Metropolitan Police a clean bill of health for persecuting so called celebbrity paedophiles- after illegal searches and terrible police and press ordeals lasting years. That body is as corrupt as the police it is allegedly watching.

No apologies or compensation from the police and this so called watchdog cronies. No atonment in Britain’s much vaunted democracy which seems so precious to Europe, as Europe is allegedly precious to Britain.

So the whole story becomes even more alarming, as the ‘Metro’ headline trumpets ‘Squat A Nerve’. The story is about Prime Minister Boris Johnson saying that he will refuse to leave Downing Street if Parliament’s conspiracy to vote him out succeeds. He says he will not leave unless the police remove him by force.

These are strange and worrying times. The plan is to vote Boris out because the Opposition has more members than he does. Then, without going to the people, this rabble of opportunists and jealous people will vote in a caretaker government and caretaker leader to see Brexit through. It is amazing how these hypocrits labelled Boris as a law breaker- a law he broke before they conspired to make it. This is satire being acted out without a script writer.

This House of Parliament headed up by Speaker John Bercow is all about virtue signalling. Their basic pay is £70,000 a year. To them, populism is a dirty word and Boris is something of a beast. Our delicate MPs who would have you believe have soul above money.

Not for these pious parliamentarians any need to abide by the law to get Boris out. There was no law to stop Boris prorogueing Parliament- so the Parilamentarians made one via tame Judge Lady Hale, a feminist icon.

There is a law regarding the removal of a Prime Minister and Government, and it is a custom under Britain’s unwritten constitution ( see The British Constitution by Walter Bagehot ) . It is simple. The Oppostion, who are handsomely paid- Corbyn gets around £120,00 plus expenses- call for a vote of no confidence. A General Election then follows.

They won’t do that because they fear a no deal exit from the EU would happen beforehand. If that didn’t happen, then they fear two possible outcomes. Outcome One is that Boris gets a large majority and takes a no deal if he has to. Outcome Two is that Boris gets defeated, so the Opposition have to take the reponsibility and the rap for whatever mess of a deal they fob off on the public. Robert Cook

Why Trust The Police? October 6th 2019

From personal experience and ongoing problems, I will never trust the British police again. How many more scandals and revelations does the public need before they realise that the police’s main priority is their safe jobs, benefits, pensions and promotion prospects? As soon as one of them has an accident, their friends in the media shout about police heores.

Their command and control processes and structure is institutioanly corrupt. Feral officers get promoted. They are very close to the centre of government. One wonders which is the tail and which the dog when it comes to that relationship.

When it comes to accountability, the police are at best economical with the truth. More often they are just plain liars and do not like criticism. Jumping on the back of Metropolitan Police Commissioner Cressida Dick over the ‘Operation Midland’ scandal is just scapegoating and covering up for instutional corruption in all of Britain’s police forces. The only lessons that will be learned is how best to cover up next time. No expenses are spared when it comes to the police’s reputation.

Dick has already survived the Stockwell illegal police killing scandal. Video tapes of that incident significantly disappeared before the Inquiry. Dick, who gave the order to kill a young innocent Brazilian that they had mistaken for a middle aged Pakistani terrorist- attacking a female withesses reputation- got promoted. True to form, the discredited senior detective who led the vicious so called investigation into an alleged high level paodophile ring, has been promoted.

The so called investigation cost £2.5 million of taxpayer’s money, without a single arrest but years of uncertainty and damning publicity for the police’s victims. A spokesman for the force said, of the heavily redacted report released to the public, said he was confident that the Independent Office for Complainst against the Police, would exonerate significant aspects of the Inquiry. One of the vicious police’s victims in this case, former MP Harvey Proctor, said his life had been ruined, he lost evrything and is no longer the same man.

Informant Carl Beech, was known anonymously as “Nick” when he made claims in 2014 that sparked the so called investigation. Officers get a lot of brownie points for nailing sex offenders. Hence their enthisiasm.

So the police quickly decided their informant’s allegations were ‘credible and true’ , going public in their quest for more victims to come forward, naming and shaming them. That passes for justice in Britain’s moralising version of representative feminist dominated democracy. If the police can drive their victims to suicide that is taken as a sign of the peron’s guilt.

They spent a fortune framing Barry George for killing Jill Dando, even though they had a phone call from a foreign agent saying he did it. The Met Officer who got hapless fantasist George jailed , was promoted- true to form. They did their best to jail Colin Stagg for killing Rachel Nickel, even paying a female officer to lead him on to confess via a fake relationship.

She asked him to do the same to her as the knife man- naming him- had done to Rachel. Her messages were graphic and revolting. Stagg argued that he could never do that and had not killed Rachel. That did not stop the police charging him with murder, remanding him, publishing his name and taking him to trial. This was truly terrifying police power at work for a gullible public!

Stagg was hounded by the press and police for years after. Neither men got compensation with George being told it was up to him to prove his innocence. That is the British Police State, not a good or safe place for a lot of men. I will never trust the police again. They are quite open that their prosecutions do not have to be evidence based. How much more vile can this country get? Quite a lot I am afraid.

The judge dealing with a Plebgate officer’s libel case against the former Cabinet minister Andrew Mitchell, who allegedly swore at this police officer in Downing Street, ruled : ‘The officer was a man of limited imagination well suited to his job as a police officer. He could not have lied about this.’

A senior West Mercia Police officer altered an official report that had concluded the three officers, who lied about Mitchell admitting to swearing at officers in the Plebgate affair,should face disciplianry proceedings. The senior officer over ruled this decision.

This report had been compiled by a man described as a ‘church going inspector.’ It seems a matter of routine and character for officers, particularly senior ones,because ‘they are well respected’ and have powerful friends and colleagues, ( That is a police jargon phrase) to lie in pursuit of their and colleague’s own ends. They stick together.

The police are a powerful vested interest defeating three Home Secretary’s attempts to reform them. With diverse Britain better described as fragmented, their kudos expands. As I said, which is the tail and which the dog in this animal saga? Robert Cook

Cressida Dick Met Police Scapegoat October 6th 2019 by Charles Close

I must disagree with Robert Cook on the matter of Cressida Dick who has been advised to consider her position over Operation Midland. She commands the largest police force in Britain, in the complex diverse capital city. She cannot be expected to micro manage every investigation.

Dick was chosen because the job had to go to a woman. Robert Cook condemns her for the Stockwell killing, but she could only respond to information provided by failing officers on the ground. – according to information received at her command and control base.

It may be a scandal that the officer in charge of Operation Midland has been promoted. However , the police are under incredible pressure to persue and prosecute alleged sex offenders.

It is high level people who craved revealinmg accused peoples’ identities. Now they have paid the price. Had this case involved low class sink estate dwellers, names would have been revealed and prosecutions rushed with almost certain conviction followed by jail. Evidence would not have been an issue.

Gunning for Cressida Dick may be political because she claimed that there would be a lot less violence and drug problems if the upper middle class young professionls had not created a market for Class A Drugs.

Two cabinet ministers have recently admitted cocaine abuse. They are probably the tip of the iceberg. Rock and pop musicians also have a record for using these drugs. Cocaine is the great sex enhander, better than viagra I am told.

As senior officers go, I think Dick has more integrity and honesty than most in her position.

Right to Privacy October 6th 2019

Obviously as a blogger I want people to read what I write. I know that the police take an interest in my work and why? I have had sveral computers confiscated and ruined by their intrusions. That is the price one pays for rocking Britain’s Titanic like state.

Britain is a land of many myths, from the Loch Ness Monster, the sexual revolution, to British democracy. In our alleged democracy. the excuse for its injustices, lies and oversights is that we have a particular type of democracy. It is called a ‘representative democracy.’

That means we elect a representatives to speak and argue about matters of state, national and international. They do not have to listen to us. There is an elite owned and controlled media, along with elite run civil service, to inform us as to what our choices should be. They will be representative of what are called the main parties who share in the consensus.

Any idependent or new party will be ridiculed and their reresentatives will be scrutinised and risk their reputations, by the establishment media outrage to block thier election. Any mainstream politician stepping out of line will risk similar ruin, as we see with Boris Johnson and Donald Trump- th U.S mentality and elite differ little from Britain’s and are interrelated.

So we have the British government on the rampage to stop Mark Zuckerberg’s plan to encrypt members’ messages to each other. the argument is that vigilance is needed to protect the public against sex offenders and terrorists. The war on paodophiles is of uppermost concern to government and freedoms must be built around those concerns. That seems to be the official view. Robert Cook

Toxic Masculinity October 6th 2019

I spent 14.25 hours, plus another 45 minutes on break, at work yesterday. As a person who does not enjoy modern music or nostalgia for sounds of long ago, I listen to Radio 4 while I drive.

Yesterday I heard a play about a middle aged man, an artist, self obsessed and also obsessed with a younger woman. That younger woman had a thing about older men. She said : ‘They make better lovers, taking their time and with more attention.’ The wife replied sarcastically ‘That is because they are too tired and warn out to do anything else.’

Both the older man and his girlfriend had the cheek to think that the wife should accept this as a freedom from the sexual restrictions and hypocrisy of old. The wife cracked up and went to see an analyst.

I am not upper middle class so I don’t know if that is normal for such people. It is certainly normal to denigrate men as sex abusers and as inherently violent. When a male Tory MP called for an ammendment to the new Domestic Violence Bill to include women as potential abusers, there was catcalling and shouting down from feminists in the public gallery.

The idea that women might, of their own volition, commit acts of depravity and violence towards spouses or children is anathema to the angelic forces of feminism.

The Domestic Violence Bill will soon be law and the bias will be against men. Women never lie is the official mantra. Husbands will not be allowed to croass examine ex partners in court. Female politicans and media miss no opportunity to broadcast stories that fit the dogma, playing down or ignoring anything bad that women do.

Listening to ‘Any Questions’ a feminist left winger warned the doubters, ‘There are going to be a lot more like us, so get used to it.’ She told fellow panelist Nigel Farage : ‘Shut up.’

‘Weekend Woman’s Hour’ featured the subject of ‘Toxic Masculinity’. Jane Garvey interviewed three in touch young males, including a female impersonator and reformed sexist. To them the phrase ‘Toxic Masculinity’ was a useful man shaming word.

Also this week, in the run up to passing the Domestic Violence Bill, Labour’s Caroline Duffy had a sisterhood hand holding moment with fellow female MPs as she finished an impassioned speech , which clearly called on her experience with her jealous controlling ex partner. On appearance I suspect that Ms Duffy is from a comfortable background.

From what she said, she fell for man who bought her gifts, including jewelery and took her to expensive resturants. He obviously had mone, the clothes, the car and the smarm. It is notciebale that a certain class of women choose a certain type of man. That becomes their reference point for some very dangerous and cruel generalisations.

I first read about domestic violence when I was a postgraduate student at Goldsmith’s College, London University in 1978. I read Erin Pizzey’s ‘Scream Quietly so the Neighbours Don’t Hear.’ Pizzey teamed up with fellow feminist Faye Weldon – author of ‘The Lives and Loves of a She Devil ‘ -went on to scrutinise abuse carried out by females.

Weldon lamented the fact that her son ended up in jail. Fellow feminist Germaine Greer has hardly been heard of since she came out with the amazing statement that ‘Most rapes are just bad sex.’

Sex has become a minefield. Marriage and birth rates among the white population have never been lower. Children growing up in a one parent family are more likely to suffer mental health issues, become involved in drug / alcohol related problems, crime and suicide. They are also more likely to develop issues around gender identity and sexual preference. These issues are outside of the smug comfortable elite consensus. The gender Identity Clinic has become a vested interest feeding off these problems. Hate crime and thought police sit ready to pounce on anyone who questions this situation.

Good people don’t see it because they are being trained and brainwashed to see a world threatened only by the far right, sex offenders and male domestic abusers. Robert Cook

Nothing Worse Than a Bent Cop October 1st 2019

I grew up watching ‘Dixon of Dock Green’ on a 405 line black and white ‘Murphy TV’ in the late 1950s. The worst case of police corruption fatherly PC Dixon ever dealt with was a young officer up from Bristol ( played by a young Paul Eddington ) stealing from his colleagues lockers to make ends meet.

These TV characters, where the head of CID was called father- and the female sergeant was called WPS, with the approprate name of Grace- were beyond reproach. they had seen all sorts of horrors during the wartime blitz, but never a bent cop.

The programme created by saintly Ted Willis and set in an imaginary London Borough by the River Thames had a high moral tone, influencing me to trust the police. Since then I have seen a very nasty side to the British police. I am glad I changed my mind about joing them in the 1970s. That is another story.

Over the years perceptionns and behaviour have changed. ‘ Z Cars,’ created by a jaundiced Mersey side Detective Sergeant raised serious questioned. DS Challoner of West End Central exposed his and othersd serious corruption in the Metropilitan police. The CID had a drinking culture which persists. The police did not like the ‘Z Cars’ storylines which showed cops’ difficult family lives and peculiar characters, with DCI Barlow being portrayed as a bully.

Positive discrimination did not save Northumbria Police’s Chief Sue Sim when she was forced out by corrupt hard drinking bullying male colleagues in 2016. she was trying to reform that force. These bloated warrirs in the war against sexism used all the offensive language and group bullying to discredit her. Weeks after she left, former colleagues showed contempt by refusing to take her daughter’s rape claims seriously.

To make matters worse, her and a former female colleague were arrested on Edinburgh’s Waverley Station for being drunk and disorderly after a night out.

Former Assistant Commisioner of the Metropolitan Police Brian Paddick writes in his police memoirs ‘In the Line of Fire’, ‘It wasn’t my homosexuality that caused me problems in the police, it was my honesty.’ His advice is ‘Always tell the truth, that way you do not have to remember what you said..’

Zach Staford write in ‘The Guardian’ ( July 27th 2015 ) For decades it has been widely accepted to only frame police officers as people who save us, protect us and stop the ‘bad guys.’ They have been the superheroes of countless stories, always getting the bad guy – a bad guy who just so happens to always be black. While there is nothing wrong with a good superhero in any story, we shouldn’t assume that just because someone carries a gun and wears a uniform that they are always the hero and can do nothing wrong. Zach Staford ‘The Guardian.’ July 27 2015′

With all of this in mind, and more, the police Public Relations Departments have a policy of amplifying any incident where officers are hurt. It would be churlish that many of these cases involve poor risk assessmeny by officers. As a truck driver I would not stand in front of a runaway truck. Had I been a police officer, I would not have stood in the way of a man with a machette.

The officer who did this recently was hailed as a hero, not a fool- when he stopped a van being driven by an Asian man in London, at night, suspecting the vehicle was not insured. However, drugs were on board. Why are drugs such a problem? Why do we have such a violent sub culture in diverse Britain.

The National Police College recently reported that promotions are based on croneyism and the wrong people get the top jobs. A few years ago Cleveland’s Chief and Deputy Chief Constables were forced to ‘retire’ on full penisons for corrupt financial practice- revealed by a brave female civilian.

Recently the head of underperforming Police Scotland was forced out because his assistant bravely stepped out of line reporting his boss for bullying. I have been a public servant and know what the creepy careeists do to whistle blowers.

Meanwhile, Cleveland Police are back in the news having officially failed on all categories of performance criteria. The force has had six Chief Constables in as many years, all, apart from Sue Sim who tried to do something about it, trotting out the mantra ‘lessons will be learned.’

Chief Officers have large salaries with many expensive benefits, including moving allowances, luxury cars and drivers, all expenses paid luxury junkets in expensive hotels in Edinburgh and other places. They have extraordianry power and no real accountability. The complaints system is ultimately in the Chief Constables hands. Their time is mainly used up policing the net, hate crimes, sexual allegations and domestics.

What used to be taken seriously, non sexual assaults, robbery and burglary has an official clear up rate of 7%. Cover ups and collusion are their speciality- as Hillsborough contiiniues to demonstrates. They are part of the same corrupt self serving malignancy that is being exposed in Parliament. Hailing every officer who gets run over by his own vehicle or similar misfortune, isobvious window dressing.

Johnson and Patel promising 20, 000 more officers with lots of state of the art kit will just mean more of the same, and more taxes- which rich people tend to avoid. The police already consume 25% of all council tax paid. Robert Cook October 3rd 2019

A Tale of Two Toffs- October 1st 2019

Back in March this year Boris Johnson caused a storm by arguing that the police were wasting millions investigating historic claims of sex abuse. ‘Tell that to those whose lives have been ruined screamed ‘The Mail’s’ headline. quoting an ex Chief Prosecutor Nazir Afzal who tweeted: ‘Boris Johnson thinks spending money on delivering justice to victims of child sexual abuse is wasted.’

Today Piers Morgan, on the ‘This Morning Show’ accused PM Boris Johnson of being a sex offender. Boris is already in trouble over allegations of an improper relationship with a busnesswoman when he was Mayor of London.

Prime Minister Johnson has been formally referred for potential investigation into whether he committed the criminal offence of misconduct in public office, over relations with a US businesswoman while he was mayor of London.

Boris Johnson said the only reason groping allegations are being made is because “quite a few people don’t want Brexit”. The allegations are that Boris squeezed a female journalist’s thigh in the late 1990s.

Meanwhile the British mainstream media has nothing nasty to say about investigating Price Andrew’s business conduct or the sexual allegations against hin which are far more serious.

Prince Andrew’s relationsionship with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein- who miraculous;y managed to break his neck in two places while under surveilance in jail- is intriguing. If they had been made about Boris he would already be on remand.

The allegations against Prince Andrew were first made years ago. Obviously he is not ging to be held to account. No doubt the authorities are already working out ways of burying this story, regardless of evidence. It will probably be written off and received by an eager public, as a terrible conspiracy against the monarchy. Meanwhile they want to bury Boris and Brexit. It seems this is a tale of two toffs with very different treatnents and characters.

There is a majot problem with historic abuse allegations where a woman’s word is always taken as truth, unless it is made against someone like Prince Andrew. It is very convenient that these allegations come while the Brexit con merchants are worried they won’t get away with it.

Who’s Joking? September 29th 2019

On our Polly Sexual page we have the story of a man visited by police for an inappropriate post about transexuals. The post was cruel and possibly misinformed. However, the scary thing about it was the comments by a police officer sent to interview him.

The officer explained he had been on a course. He accepted that the tweeter had broken no laws.

We have a copy letter sent to a pre op transexual-after her third annual consulation and two years of hormone treatment and blood tests -informing her GP ‘she has a secure female identity’ promising gender reassignment surgery as soon as testosterone levels were suitably reduced.

The letter is signed by Dr Kirpal Sahota of the Tavistock Gender Identity Clinic in Hammersmith London. A few weeks later a psychiatrist, student and mental health nurse turned up at the patient’s home, insisting on entry and forcing a series of interviews. The patient was then sent a copy report diagnosing paranoid personality disorder, saying hospital was not immediately needed. Monitoring would be ongoing.

Anti psychotic drugs were insisted upon as a part of the process. The patient has requested, from them and the GMC, their working definition of paranoid personality disorder- it is explained on our psychology page- and how the patient met the criteria. This has been denied.

The psychiatrist CR Ramsay recommended a milti agency monitring process involving the police. The case is very serious and on going. One has to wonder where the real insanity lies. Maybe there is no contradiction between being judged female in a male body, suitable for sex change and paranoid at the same time! I wonder.

Censorship on this subject in the name of fake liberal diversity could be doing very serious harm and promoting further gender totalitarianism in a country where working class men are increasingly isolated and inclined to suicide.

There is an increasingly powerful movement to abolish gender specific toys, through advertising and education, in spite of evidence that from an early age girls show more interest in faces and boys how things work. Psychology and psychiatry are not easily, if at all, grounded in what one might call science.

From the outset judgements of what is right, wrong, appropriate and inappropriate behaviour have been cuturally defined. Cultural developments and hegemony is very much in the hands of the powerful and subversion has dire consequences as war crime whistle blowers Julian Assange and Bradley Manning know to their cost.

Shoot the Messenger September 29th 2019

Back in the 1980s I used to believe that teaching and good writing could change the world. So I dropped out of the rat race thinking teaching would give me time to write. I also thought teachers would be idealists. I soon found most were back stabbing careerist. rampant feminists or both.- more in due course on Junius page.

Thirty years later we see the dream come true. Teachers are brainwashers, police social controllers and journalists spin their so called truths for multi national elite funded mainstream media. So we have the irrelevance of murdered MP Jo Cox intruded into the Brexit fiasco. Cox’s husband and sister, Kate Leadbeater have joined in the row.

The latter is outraged that Boris Johnson said the best way to honour Jo Cox’s memory was to get Brexit done. Words seldom fail him, but he was in an impossible position dealing with an overtly female dominated excuse for a debate. All the women wanted to scream, screech and shout about, with angry faces, was the terrible tone and vocabulary the PM used. This was not debate. It was the assertion of educated female superiority and demand to be obeyed.

The elite expect their agencies and widespread cameras to prevent a rise of the far right, as happened in 1930s Europe. But their rush to condemn suggsts a certain insecurity. One is reminded of the Aberfan coal slag heap collapse in the 1960s, when England did not swing for most of us. One too many loads of wsste was put on that slag heap.

The rain came, the heap collapsed and burried the school. What is never mentioned about the Jo Cox muder is that her killer was being forced to leave the council house he had grown up in and lived with his mother there. All his life and memories had been there.

The house was being given to a large migrant family. The authorities appered not to care about this man or his ethnicity. Hate speech and a feminist libersl obsession with tone, may be making matters worse. Far Right movements are far from an organised mass movement, but an anomic mass response is not out of the question.

Last week’s events have not helped. Now we have opportunistic Labour hoping to criminalise Johnson, just as the Democrats are desperate to get Trump impeached because of the Biden scandal- and threat to his Presidential hopes. These people are quite dreadful, yet they are the ones setting what passes for a moral tone.

The FBI has expended their investigation into Jeffrey Epstein by using more witnesses who claim to have been victims of his sex trafficking, some of whom could help authorities figure out what Prince Andrew’s connection was to the disgraced financier who died by suicide in his New York prison cell in August. Posted September 29th 2019- Full Story on International News Page

I was brought up in a poor working class family in Tory Buckinghamshire. My parents moved out from their native London to Winslow, where she was brought up and had family. She said she liked London but there were few houses or flats for people to live in. My sister was born in London and it was the only place we ever went on holiday until my father’s death, after which we never went on holdiday as a family again.

But I would be lying if I said we knew we were poor because we were British. My parents, as Londoners, remembered the war and the blitz. Mother lost a brother who was serving with the London Irish Rifles.

Common folk suffered much during World War Two, being offered a better world after- ‘fun and laughter and peace ever after’ as Vera Lynn used to sing to them all. People clung on during the really austere 1950s, not wanting to believe it had all been for nothing.

My father, a regular soldier, had been wounded at Dunkirk, serving later as a military policeman in Liverpool and Birkenhead. They had a different outlook on life, a broader outlook, but they were very English. They respected its tradition and trusted its icons.

Churchill had its critics, my mother among them after he visited the munitions factory where she met him. The Royals were held above politics, my mother admiring them for staying in London during the Blitz. All that changed when Princess Diana, her boyfriend and driver died mysteriously in a Paris underpass where they were diverted because a bridge over the River Seine was closed for no obvious reasons.

Cameras along the route were switched off. There are many more unanswered questions about this matter, but suffice it say here that it seriously harmed the credibility of the Queen and Royal family.

Now we have the Epstein scandal. Will there be another slick British establishment cover up? I expect so. The second picture above was taken as the Royal family gathered for their last trip on the Royal Yacht Brittannia. There is no sign of Prince Andrew in this image. Where was he?

Wasteminster Waffle September 25th 2019

Parliament is still asking the government loaded questions about the horrors that will unfold if Britain has a no deal Brext- theonly form of Brexit worth the name. Up until this moment, 17.30 there have been 87. Most are from the combined ex Tory Lib Dem Labour Parliamentary alliance of comfortable vested interests determined to block or have a fake Brexit.

Failing their consent to a General Election so that ‘the people’ can decide, they should revoke Article 50 and admit that the Brexit vote was a sham. Listening to them ranting I can only conclude that being in the EU has taken away this country’s ability to produce anything and the best of our food is being sent abroad. Meanwhile we are told to eat less meat for the environment- really so it can be exported elsewhere at high prices.

Earlier today the Attorney General renewed pleas for decency to prevail and for Parliament -thanks to pompous idiot ex PM David Cameron’s obstructive Fixed Term Parliament Act Parliament now decides- to permit a General Election. This is obviously because they do not trust the people not to give PM Boris aa working majority.

The tone of questioning was all about making a fool of the government. When the Attorney General responded to one loaded question as reminding him of the old barrister joke. ‘Have you stopped beating your wife yet? answer yes or no. A demented posh female Labour MP leapt up and was given the speaker’s permission to rail against him for ‘making a joke of domestic violence and insensitivity.’ Labour certainly has its priorities right. Whatever would it do without domestic violence, female suffering everywhere and racism?

Where Real People Live

September 25th 2019

‘Get outside London where real people live and you will find out what real people want. People did not vote to remain in the single market, it couldn’t have been clearer.’ So said Nigel Farage on BBC news tody at 07.25 BST today.

Farage was called to account when he said that the Supreme Court is a political court set up by Tony Blair and represntative of the political class.

As a former school teacher with many years experience, I am aware that Britain’s schools eschew politics, ensuring high levels of political ignorance as a basis for controlling people en masse. This country’s much vaunted diversity is a con, it is a bit like saying a farm is diverse because it includes humans, chickens, pigs, sheep and cattle.

Tony Blair used to be lampooned as Tony Bliar in trendy ‘Private Eye’. There is no doubt that he lied over Iraq and the dodgy dossier. Still Blair is venerated and so is Cameron, the person who originated the Brexit con trick.

Now I just heard former Supreme Court Judge and BBC news luvvie Lord Sumption answer the question of him and his sort being out of touch with what the people voted for. His answer was: ‘Under the British Constitution 52% of the population cannot have 100% of the spoils.’ I wonder how he squares that with the fact that Margaret Thatcher won a landslide victory with 40 % of the vote in 1979.

She and her Tories went on to dismantle and re assemble the social and economic fabric, enhancing police powers, causing so much misery along the way- selling state assests at knock down prices to Tory cronies, creating record levels of unemployment along the way. Why does the first past the post system apply to all British elections but not Cameron’s Brexit con? Boris Johnson, according to the elite, is a populist who lacks integrity.

Johnson also stands accused of lying to the Queen. It is interesting that the Supreme Court attributes a secret motive for proroging parliament but there is no media interest or calling Parliament, led by Bercow, to account for their obvious intent to block an effective Brexit. I have no idea what a resl Brexit would mean, but I do know that Gina Miller, Parliament and the mainstream media have shown Britain’s democracy for the sham that it is. Among other things, Cameron’s new memoirs show he only allowed a referendum because he expected to manipulate a remain vote. That makes Cameron disingenuous if not a downright liar.

Lady Hale of the Supreme Court and her cronies have overruled years of precedent in our unwritten constitution. The fact that Parliament on all sides is blocking a General Election, wanting a deal first, informs any one with an open mind that Parlaiment and Miller’s intent has not been about our fake democracy, it is about blocking Brexit, to hell with anything or anybody in their way.

Call for Johnson to resign September 24th 2019

The issue is very simply about Britain’s fake democracy. A woman representing extreme wealth has overturned the British Constitution and its precedents. Parlaiment is hoping, backed or maybe led by the odious and pompous John Bercow, to pass off a so called Brexit deal-which will be remaining without representation-f as Brexit. Such a deal will mean remaining on worse terms.

If Labour and Parliament had any guts it would bring a vote of no confidene after revoking Article 50 and openly cancelling Brexit.. There are a lot of down trodden hopeless people in this country.

These people are condemned and scapegoated because they believe they are being overwhlemed by favoured migrants from countries the British elite and the U.S have been bombing ever since 9/11. It is hard to say how things will play out but the misery won’t go away.

Governement Backs Clampdown on Hate Crimes September 24th 2019

Editorial Comment Hate used to be a word popular with soap opera script writers, schoolkids and girls dumping their boyfriends. The famous German philopsopher Goethe said and wrote : ‘You have to be a good hater.’ International English athlete Dick Taylor said : ‘You have to hate to win races.’ When I went before an RAF commission board at RAF Biggin Hill back in the early 1970s, I was asked if I could kill.

A female officer, obviously the board’s psychiatrist was annoyed by my hesitation, cutting in with the comment : ‘Well that’s what it is all about in the end.’ I see her point. How can you kill without emotion, without hate, without believing that the enemy is the bad person and worthy of hate?

A great deal of killing has been orchestrated by the bullies who beccame the ruling elite over the centuries. After Rome went Christian and the barely civilised world spilt between Christian and Islam versions of worship and corrupt rule, each side proclaimed they were right. Love was for God and hate for the enemy.

During the so called ‘Great War’ which was all about greed and empire, millions of young men were slaughtered by their betters while propoganda whipped up hate on both sides. British guns were blessed and returning soldiers in 1918, many crippled or traumatised, were thrown on the scrap heap.

The rich rode out the depression until there was an excuse for more war, hate and patriotic hysteria. The post war hippy period was a flash in the pan, the Western World led by Britain and icons like Germaine Greer morphed into feminism and the apparently endless world of hating men, making them pay and putting them in their place.

Hate has been a useful word enabling us to understand extreme emotions and explore causes. Now it is a label and a crime to control the fall out from a new social order- created, by the ruling elite who have no idea of life at the bottom- called DIVERSITY.

The word fan is short for fanatic. The multi billion pound world of sport relies on fans who are known to get drunk and violent, replacing a sense of lost tribalism and belief with football favours etc. Society’s rulers, including feminists, are very concerned. When they look for causes of hate crimes they are not looking at basic human nature.

They are looking at their new world order design to better design and control the individuals and groups that do not fit the kind of diversity they want. Drugs or prison are their ultimate resort if education and psychotherapy do not fit. Robert Cook September 24th 2019

Censor Oxford Dictionary Insist Feminists September 23rd 2019

It has been said and probably tested that if you put a frog in hot water it will demonstrate how high it can jump. But if you put it into cold water and start boiling it the frog won’t notice until it is too late. So when the raging politically correct feminists started boiling the social water in the 1970s, most people – mired in poverty and despair – did not notice.

So it came to pass, with the ‘inevitability of gradualnes’ phrase as theFabian Webbs used to predict their promised socialist utopia , we experienced all the deliberate changes creeping into social policies and reinforced by school teachers- as I was ordered to do.

No one noticed the thin end of this so called liberal feminist wedge as it prized the two sexes apart- it has yet to seriously affect the upper classes because they live in their own little world feeding off the ignorant masses and loving all this distraction, as they do the nonsense over climate change. ‘Scapegoats r’ Us’ is their logo. The feminist agenda is an elitist con trick.

Since literacy is at an all time low in Britain -unless texting is regarded as literacy- few will appreciate the seriousness of the feminist attack on the Oxford dictionary. As if making so many things actionable as hate speech was not enough, feminists are campaigning to remove every single word or expression that might be used to denigrate or present women in a bad light. The only light that is allowed to shine over the great blob of women is a halo imposed by deranged feminists.

Remove the words, define and ban unpleasant comments as so called hate speech and the authorities control our ability to think and criticise our own oppression. This fits in well with the global modern liberal Western multi cultured diversity imposed on us all by an intolreant global supremacist upper class. This intolerant fascist ideology is corroding the West to assist the continued personal enrichment of a corrupt inbred hereditary elite.

By pretending that we have a collection of cultures and tolerant diversity, the authorities justify banning thoughts and expressions. Like the frogs, the plebians do not notice that the temperature is rising in more ways than one. Robert Cook September 23rd 2019

Climate change: Impacts ‘accelerating’ as leaders gather for UN talks Posted September 23rd 2019

By Matt McGrath Environment correspondent

• 22 September 2019
• UK climate change protests

The signs and impacts of global warming are speeding up, the latest science on climate change, published ahead of key UN talks in New York, says.

The data, compiled by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), says the five-year period from 2014 to 2019 is the warmest on record.

Sea-level rise has accelerated significantly over the same period, as CO2 emissions have hit new highs.

The WMO says carbon-cutting efforts have to be intensified immediately.

• BBC Briefing: Your energy and climate facts guide
• Offshore wind expands at record low price
• Thousands join UK climate change protests

The climate statement is a pull-together of the latest science on the causes and growing impacts of unprecedented levels of warming seen in recent years.

Recognising that global temperatures have risen by 1.1 degrees C since 1850, the paper notes they have gone up by 0.2C between 2011 and 2015.

This is as a result of burgeoning emissions of carbon, with the amount of the gas going into the atmosphere between 2015 and 2019 growing by 20% compared with the previous five years.

Perhaps most worrying of all is the data on sea-level rise.

“Climate change due to us is accelerating and on a very dangerous course,” said Prof Brian Hoskins, chair of the Grantham Institute, Imperial College London, and professor of meteorology, University of Reading.

“We should listen to the loud cry coming from the schoolchildren. There is an emergency – one for action in both rapidly reducing our greenhouse gas emissions towards zero and adapting to the inevitable changes in climate.”

‘No fancy speeches’

The WMO report is meant to inform the special UN summit on climate change taking place in New York on Monday.

A range of political leaders will attend the one-day event, which is designed to be about action and not words, according to UN secretary general António Guterres.

“I told leaders not to come with fancy speeches, but with concrete commitments,” he said ahead of the meeting.

“People want solutions, commitments and action. I expect there will be an announcement and unveiling of a number of meaningful plans on dramatically reducing emissions during the next decade, and on reaching carbon neutrality by 2050.”

Greta Thunberg and other youth activists, fresh from marching on the streets of New York on Friday, will speak at the opening of the meeting.

While China, India, France, Germany and the UK will speak at the meeting, there is no place on the podium for Japan or Australia.

“It is highly important that we reduce greenhouse gas emissions, notably from energy production, industry and transport. This is critical if we are to mitigate climate change and meet the targets set out in the Paris Agreement,” said Petteri Taalas from the WMO.

“To stop a global temperature increase of more than 2 degrees C above pre-industrial levels, the level of ambition needs to be tripled. And to limit the increase to 1.5 degrees, it needs to be multiplied by five,” he said.

Editorial Comment This is a shortened version of the BBC article- the full report is on Internatioanl News. It is notable that the raging growth in world population is unmentioned, as always. It is a conventional truth that economic growth must keep pace with population growth and that pooerer countries have the right to move up to Western living standards, being allowed to migrate there freely if necessesary..

It is also a fact that Britain is backing the U.S over blaming Iran for the attack on an oil refinery. The U.S has gone fracking mad but still wants to control the world’s energy suppy. Neighbouring Brazil is burning the rainfores for pasture.

Eighty percent of the world’s population are non white but ordinary whites, who struggle to pay bills in countries like Britain get the blame. london is to have a thord London Airport and nobody is going to stop the jet set. There was a fierce response when environmental campaigners threatened to blockade Heathrow. So far no one has calculated what are the effects of so much political and media hot air on global warming.

Lincolnshire Fire Chief Bans Fireman Sam Mascot Posted September 19th 2019

Fire Chief Les Britzman of Lincolnshire Fire Brigade bans long standing Fireman Sam of Pontypandy Fire Brigade, childrens TV show, fame from being the forces recruiting mascot. It puts off women from joining the service he says.

Mrs Pink Pig has been similarly condemned by the politically correct campaign to prove that women can do anything a man can do, probably better as well.

As Piers Morgan commented on breakfast TV, the logical thing for Mr Britzman to do is to sack himself. Britain leads the world on political correctness and rule making. Europe would never survive without them.

Children’s Books Move on to the PC World

Children’s books have moved on to suit this age of diversity, where the least diverse thing is that the rich still get richer with the poor fighting over what is left over. Crime is an inevitable outcome- the rich peoples crimes are outside of official parlance or investigation.

So it somes to pass that children have a new exciting series to read, all about the lives of Topsy and Tim, two politically correct white children. In this slim volume. Topsy and Tim have an exciting visit from the police- I know what a visit from the police is like, certainly not exciting- I would call it invasive, terrifying and humiliating.

In the days when only boys- rich boys- were educated, the Jesuit teachers had a saying : ‘Give me the child until he is seven and I will give you the man.’ My studies in postgraduate psychology informed me that there is science behind this expression. So the system knows, ‘get them young.’

The police have a problem of losing consent, an inevitable outcome of the expanding police state and the police’s fixation on the lower orders. As Plebgate revealed, the police do not see themselves as common people. The politcians and media market them as heroes. The idea of police corruption and misconduct will never be seen in the world of Topsy and Tim.

Polite People Protestors outside Supreme Court Yesterday – Posted September 18th 2019

My concern in this case is that the Brexit choice was a fake, the elected government is not allowed the General Election it wants, mainstream media is biased and a person with a lot of money ( a lawyer with all the right connections ) and access to a crowd fund, is bringing a case in the name of democracy, as we see with these placards. Europe is an appalling mess, its cultural heritage symbolised by what is left of Notre Dame, mass immigration and refugees are very much the outcome of arrogant elitist British and U.S led wars on the Middle East and years of plundering Africa.

Liberals and feminists see Europe as a suitable escape valve for the overflow, condemning the underlass who paid for the carnage. Staying in Europe with no MEPs is a good outcome for an elite that only offered a Brexit vote because rich elitist politicians had been advised they would win. As a former maths teacher, the maths here are obvious and everything adds up. Now we have the so called independent judiciary involved, and law made by our so called representatives on the hoof, just to block a no deal Brexit. www.robertcookofnorthbucks.comAbout This Websiteuk.news.yahoo.com Here’s What Happened On Day One Of The Supreme Court Prorogation Hearing

Political Elite September 17th 2019

I never shared the view that leaving Europe would make life better for common people in this country. By common, I mean average, the proletariat if you like- the kind of people the police see themselves as being above a la Plebgate.

Britain, to my mind, has stoked up the effete pseudo liberalism that has infested Europe. Our Internationalist elite has. since 1066, had a sense of noblese oblige.

Margaret Thatcher’s 1979 election victory ushered in this age of shameless greed, selfishness, hypocrisy, global economics and rolling war. Class became a dirty and allegedly divisive word. Labour split between the Militant Tendency and the Social Democrats. Unions were castrated along with a new breed of upper middle class feminist politicians.

In those days, I was motivated to join the Labour Party, soon kicked out for criticising the self harming Coal Miners strike. I found a new political home in the Liberal Democrats in 1997, going for selection as prospective parlaimentary candidate. After selection I was offered courses on how to present myself and talk to voters. I knew then it was not for me. As it turned out when High Tory and old Etonian David Cameron failed to achive a majority, along came the LIB Dems to help out- all things to all people should be their slogan.

Britain’s elite have always felt their version of morality was God given, at least in my life time. There have been so many apparent splits, but the mentality has not changed. The elite has even more of the money, with mainstream media even more complex and sophisticated in its control- blaming the Russians when it goes wrong.

The Brexit refereundum was intended to reinforce Britain’s membership of the EU. It didn’t, so the elite backlash is working a con that leaving with a deal is actually leaving. The reality is that it suits them better, because they will still benefit while the common people will have no chance of electing MEPs to stand up for them. People who don’t like this outcome will be told ‘You voted for it.’

Mourning a Tyrant – September 12th 2019

The white liberal political/media elite backed Robert Mugabee and are now sanitising and air brushing his crimes. He was a vile man. Calling this nationalism is just another trick for damning nationalism. He was a murderous bullying brute-put in power by the British elite. Lessons are never learned. South Africa is no better.

But the British elite blame no one except the likes of long dead Cecil Rhodes for the appaling reality. Posh Oxford University students banning the Rhodes statue is typical virtue signalling. They are the future media and political consensus tyrants, while it is their ancestors who benefitted from the Empire- the building of which relied on lies, deceit and sacrifice of British white working class soldiers.

Mugabee was billions of time worse than Ian Smith. His henchmen burned blacks alive. He went to Switzwerland using stolen money from the country he bankrupted, not for medical treatment, but because the horrible old man could not stand being pushed out of power.

Through violence and femaine, Mugabee killed more blacks than Ian Smith- ever did or counted. This view is not compatible with our so called liberal PC elite who think women and blacks are never inherently bad. They are so nice and innocent, they only do bad things when led astray by white men -men who rape nice countries and nice women.

Must Respect Judges and the Law. No protests in UK please- September 12th 2019

I never saw leaving Europe as a solution to British elite corruption and economic bias towards their greed and loathing of the indigenous working classes.

Thatcherism broke the old post war so called Butskillism consensus in the name of progress and more profit. It evolved into the current cross party consensus that offered politicians careers, status, TV fame, and the vote winning lie of a Brexit referendum, confident that most of us did not care and the rest would vote remain.

This has exposed the bigger issue of the new elite cross party consenus toward passing off a Brexit deal as leaving. Lord Sumption, with his visibly awakwardsly heaving shoulders, was wheeled out again yesterdasy, by the BBC.

This was for yet another of his Reith lectures- named after the upper class Lord Reith who had the first BBC Director General job handed to him on a plate, decades ago.

It was an interesting talk, which I will review later today. For now, the key phrase of this talk was : ‘The public are demanding more freedom with the safety to do what they want. For this it is necesaary to increase the public space at the expense of the private space. This is particularly important in our diverse society.’ It means privacy is being reduced so that we have ever increasing State Power to watch and control us underlings- not the likes of Price Andrew for example.

Sumption told us that in 1919 there was one solicitor per thousand of the population. Today the ratio is one for every 400. ‘There are 50 stout volumes of British law.’ He said.

The City of London is the least regulated financial market in the world and higly lucrative for the international elite. Merkel accused Britain of hypocrisy over Euro law grumbles. She said Britain has been responsible for 80% of them. So, all in all, anyone who thinks leaving will make Britain less rule and law bound is mistaken. Brexit may not do much for the common people, but it would cost the elite and big business. it would also remove their shield of blaming Europe.

I just heard a Labour big whig saying we must respect our judges ( who are not out of touch, he said ) and the law as per the Scottish High Court judging closing Parliament illegal. A few days ago, we saw how the cross party elite rushed out a law to prevent Brexit. Respecting the law is about respecting the ruling rich elite and their power.

I am sure the Nazis insisted on common folk respecting the law. The penalty for not doing would be horrible. Laws are not inherently sacrosanct or benign and rely on popular consent, which is why the elite and their media fear any hint of populism, always ready to apply and/or change the law. Diversity is a big part of the con. Robert Cook September 12th 2019

Mainstream Media ignores Julian Assange case – September 11th 2019

Below are two recent reports concerning the case of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Sweden is a close ally of Britain. Britain is just as close to the U.S, which its’ elite spawned- George Washington was from a wealthy family of Northamptonshire landowners and involved with slavery.

Times change. Old crimes are forgotten and forgiven, while new ones are invented. Rape was redefined by PM Tony Blair and his government of former lawyers. All sorts of alleged inappropriate contact male to female may now be defined as rape, for the purposes of pleasing female voters and their worried fathers.

It is an intractable problem, with men guilty until proven guilty and even proven female liars escaping punishment. To achieve its ends of upping rape convictions, the British ruling elite have embraced the ‘Me Too’ culture.

This means when all else fails and there is no evidence to support allegations, all the police have to do is publicise the alleged rapist’s name, calling for more woment to come forward with their allegations. The ‘Cracker’ style theory is all damning, based on the myth that women never lie about anything, let alone men. So along they come. That is why the government will never give those accused of rape anonymity whist protecting the identity of accusers so taht more come forward in each case. It is a fantasists charter.

A long list of complainants made. The case goes to court, with a ‘bad character’ file as big as a pile of bricks. Witnesses will have the option of a video link to prevent them being upset, and the police will hope that another man bites the dust.

As I write, I am mindfull that our governmental system can knock out new laws and ratify them in 24 hours, so I run the risk that these words might break one of them. Publishing is now a dangerous business unless one is part of the mainstream, a stream that simply supports the consensus.

Julian Assange asserts that he did not commit rape but took refuge in the Ecuadorian embassy because he was being set up by the British and U.S for extradition. Some claim that the U.S interferred in the Ecuadorian elections in order to get a friendly governemnt to have Assange bad mouthed and kicked out so the Brits could have him jailed and extradited to the U.S on espionage charges.

Turns out all is coming true. A British magistrate called Assange a narcisist and jailed him while extradition papers were arranged. There was no media discussion of what Wilileaks had done to expose U.S war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan

It is possible that these crimes also involved U.S main ally Britain- source of the so called ‘dodgy dossier’ used to provoke the last Iraq War which has killed hundreds of thousands of people and destabilised the entire Middle East. Meanwhile, the British politcal system descends into chaos because the British elite are struggling to sell a proposed Brexit Deal as Brexit, rather than the con that it is.

I am not sure things have changed that much. The media has just got better at spin and propoganda, taking the elitist view that the masses are stupid, appeased by promises of more diversity- a world where ordinary women are told of all the wonderful things they could be, while ordinary men are told what they are unless they enter the no man’s land of gender reassignment.

This definition of men tends to the ‘all men are potential rapists, liars and wife beaters. The defintion of women is that they are all angels guiding men and always at risk of abuse. If anything goes wrong it is not their fault. Women like Pamela Anderson are supposed to be there bringing out the worst in men to help condemn them. They are not supposed to have a brain and stand up for men like Julian Assange, a so called threat to our national interest.

When I hear the latter phrase, I substitute class for national. This case is about class interest. Assange is back in solitary confinement and will, I fear be broken before he is extradited. That is what British Democracy is about. Meanwhile, the British elite, with media poodles lapping at their heels, have the audacity to condemn Iraq for jailing two more British women ‘spies’ . The same media hails Hong Kong’s rebel leader Joshua Wong for his role in so called freedom fighting- an alleged spontaneous human rights erruption. Anyone looking for the strings and puppet masters is a deranged conspiracy theorist. It is all very W-ong, in my view. Robert Cook September 11th 2019

More witnesses interviewed in Julian Assange Swedish rape case

Swedish prosecutors have interviewed two new witnesses over a 2010 rape allegation against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange.

A total of seven witnesses had been interviewed over the summer, the prosecution authority said Monday.

“We have mainly re-interviewed those individuals who were interviewed in 2010, although two of the persons interviewed have not previously been interviewed,” the deputy director of public prosecution, Eva-Marie Persson, said.

The Swedish investigation concerns events that took place in August 2010 when a Swedish woman accused Assange of rape after meeting him at a WikiLeaks conference in the capital, Stockholm.

Assange, 48, has always denied the allegation.

The statute of limitations in the case expires in August 2020.

Under arrest: The future of Julian Assange and WikiLeaks

How to proceed?

“Once we have analysed the interviews, I will decide how to proceed with the case. The investigation may then be discontinued or I may decide to conduct further inquiries,” Persson said.

“If I make the assessment that the next step is to interview Julian Assange, I will issue a European Investigation Order, in which case I shall write to the British authorities with a request to conduct an interview.”

Assange has been held at a top-security British prison since April after police sensationally dragged him out of the Ecuadoran embassy in London, where he had been holed up since 2012 to avoid an extradition order to Sweden, where he was wanted for questioning.

Assange was subsequently sentenced to 50 weeks in prison for breaching bail conditions when he took refuge in the embassy.

Following his arrest, Swedish authorities reopened their 2010 rape investigation, which had been closed in 2017 with the argument it wasn’t possible to proceed with the investigation as Assange could not be reached.

Prosecutors then asked a Swedish court to order Assange detained in Sweden in order to facilitate their investigation. But the court refused the request, saying he was already imprisoned in Britain and their probe could proceed in other ways.

Assange is currently also the subject of a US extradition request, where he is facing a total of 18 charges, most of which relate to obtaining and disseminating classified information over the publishing of military documents and diplomatic cables through the website WikiLeaks.

He could be sentenced to 175 years in prison if convicted on all 18 counts.

Pamela Anderson on The View: Watch her clap back at Meghan McCain regarding Julian Assange

By Tiffany Bailey 6th September 2019 3:42 PM ET Share TweetFlipboard

Pamela Anderson sat down with the ladies of The View and things got a little heated at the table. Her friendship with Julian Assange has been widely publicized, and it was what set off the back and forth that viewers saw at the table earlier today.

While talking to Sunny Hostin, Pamela Anderson revealed that Julian Assange inspires her to be a more effect activist. She was full of compliments about him, something that led to contempt from Meghan McCain when it was her turn to talk.

Bercow the Controller September 10th 2019

If anyone ever doubted that Berow is a bully, yesterday in Parliament should remove any doubts. After a long winded series of psychophantic accolades from the floor, Bercow went into an aside about how words hurt. He mentioned that members of the public had said nasty things about MPs who had been blocking Brexit.

He said this might get worse, because of ‘What we are about to do.’ A debate about getting hold of Boris Johnson’s private correspondence and e mails followed. The debate was led by slick fellow Bucks MP the Rt Hon Dominic Greav of snooty Beaconsfield– a silver tongued upper class former Attorney General and barrister.

Bercow’s tone was conspiratorial and says a lot about his conduct during the Brexit debacle. It should be clear that the intention is to disguise remaining in the EU as leaving with a deal.

I started out as a remainer who thought leaving was absurd. However, in the light of all this, I am even more fearful of the corrupt British Police State and its malign influence, not just on us lower orders, but the common people of Europe. Yesteday’s performance was redolent of the last days of the Reichstag in pre war Germany. Comment by Robert Cook

Hate Speech Posted September 10th 2019

The British elite use this device to protect themselves from criticism by barely literate down trodden mass. With elite education it is easy for them to patronise and ignore the miserries and frustrations of who they see as lower orders, when it suits them. In Britain these laws have been used to jail those who say nasty things to or about police officers, politicians and Muslims.

The rules do not seem to apply when anyone from these three groups say nasty things about the lower orders or those aspiring to represent them. Hence it was alright for ‘right on’ feminist comedian (sic) Joe Brand to joke that acid might have been a better choice of liquid to throw over Nigel Farage.

The rules on hatre speech in the United States are a little more relaxed and as follows:

The Legalities Of Hate Speech

Often discussed on a variety of platforms, hate speech and the legalities associated with it can be a hotly debated topic. Hate speech is loosely defined by laypersons as any offensive speech targeted toward people based on race, religion, sexual orientation, or gender. Opinions about how such speech should be handled by legal authorities vary. Few seem to be familiar with the actual legalities of hate speech, and it is not uncommon for it to be confused with other crimes where hatred is believed to be a motivating factor.

Which Laws Govern Hate Speech?

In the United States, there are no laws against hate speech. Due to rights protected by the U.S. Constitution’s First Amendment, a person can say just about anything he or she wants to another person or group. By itself, such speech is allowed to take place without penalty under the law.

A person hurling insults, making rude statements, or disparaging comments about another person or group is merely exercising his or her right to free speech. This is true even if the person or group targeted by the speaker is a member of a protected class. According to U.S. law, such speech is fully permissible and is not defined as hate speech.

President Trump: When You Leave the Middle East, Do It with a Big Bang

by Efraim Inbar
The Jerusalem Post
August 25, 2019 https://www.meforum.org/59232/leave-the-middle-east-with-a-big-bang

President Donald Trump plans to withdraw the US military contingent stationed in northeast Syria. This may be implemented slowly, but the US troops eventually will be brought home. Trump’s disengagement from Syria and Iraq is in sync with American attempts to reach an understanding with the Taliban that will allow an honorable US withdrawal from Afghanistan as well.

Those foreign policy decisions seem to constitute a part of a larger trend to reduce US involvement in the Middle East, a trend that began during the tenure of president Barack Obama. This reflects weariness of foreign involvements, a weariness engendered by US involvement in two unsuccessful wars (Iraq and Afghanistan). Reinforcing this is the diminishing importance of the oil-rich Middle East to the US. American focus on the Chinese challenge also reinforces this. In addition, Trump’s isolationist impulses play a role in lowering America’s military profile abroad.

Efraim Inbar is president of the Jerusalem Institute for Strategy and Security and a fellow at the Middle East Forum.

Editorial Comment The Middle East is the land of religious mania and oil wealth. The British elite, with their sharp dealers and working class soldiers played it for years. After World War Two, the U.S.A bundled in. The intention has never been to bring democracy, That cannot be achieved in theocracies.

The Jews have much to complain about, much to fear and much to be proud of, but it is hard to see a resolution with the Islamic people who derived their Koran and belief system from tthe Jews- Judaism. Thus it is inevitable that there will be plenty more big bangs in the region, with more disasters that no sane person would look foward to.

But there is a point where religious faith and sanity part company. I fear that point has been reached with Israel and its neighbours. Hence the continous prodding of Iran because of their support for Assad, a man and regime hated by Israel. It was the German philospher Goethe who said ‘you have to be a good hater.’

Oh whatever happened to the hippies- they either starved or sold out. So who is going to sell out in the Middle East? No one because all conflicting parties believe God is on their side- all good for the multi billion dollar arms industry. For more on this, dig out an old viideo/CD of Peter Sellars in ‘Dr Strangelove.’ Jewish Fascist learned much from the ‘Holocaust’.

Super Pacs August 27th 2019

by Tom Murse Updated July 03, 2019

A super PAC is a modern breed of a political action committee that’s allowed to raise and spend unlimited amounts of money from corporations, unions, individuals, and associations to influence the outcome of state and federal elections. The rise of the super PAC was heralded as the beginning of a new era in politics in which elections would be determined by the vast sums of money flowing into them, leaving average voters with little to no influence.

The term “super PAC” is used to describe what is technically known in federal election code as an “independent expenditure-only committee.” They are relatively easy to create under federal election laws. There is about 2,400 super PACs on file with the Federal Election Commission. They raised about $1.8 billion and spent $1.1 billion in the 2016 election cycle, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

Function of a Super PAC

The role of a super PAC is similar to that of a traditional political action committee. A super PAC advocates for the election or defeat of candidates for federal office by purchasing television, radio and print advertisements and other media. There are conservative super PACs and liberal super PACs.

Difference Between a Super PAC and Political Action Committee

The most important difference between a super PAC and traditional candidate PAC is in who can contribute, and in how much they can give.

Candidates and traditional candidate committees can accept $2,700 from individuals per election cycle. There are two election cycles a year: one for the primary, the other for the general election in November. That means they can take in a maximum of $5,400 a year — half in the primary, and half in the general election.

Candidates and traditional candidate committees are prohibited from accepting money from corporations, unions, and associations. Federal election code prohibits those entities from contributing directly to candidates or candidate committees.

Super PACs, though, have no limitations on who contributes to them or how much they can spend on influencing an election. They can raise as much money from corporations, unions, and associations as they please and spend unlimited amounts on advocating for the election or defeat of the candidates of their choice.

Some of the money that flows into super PACs cannot be traced. That money is often referred to as “dark money.” Individuals can mask their identities and the money they give by contribution first to outside groups including nonprofit 501[c] groups or social welfare organizations that go on to spend tens of millions of dollars on political ads.

Restrictions on Super PACs

The most important restriction prohibits any super PAC from working in conjunction with a candidate it’s supporting. According to the Federal Election Commission, super PACs cannot spend money “in concert or cooperation with, or at the request or suggestion of, a candidate, the candidate’s campaign or a political party.”

History of Super PACs

Super PACs came into existence in July 2010 following two key federal court decisions that found limitations on both corporate and individual contributions to be unconstitutional violations of the First Amendment right to free speech.

In SpeechNow.org v. Federal Election Commission, a federal court found restrictions on individual contributions to independent organizations that seek to influence elections to be unconstitutional. And in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, the U.S. Supreme Court decided that limits on corporate and union spending to influence elections were also unconstitutional.

“We now conclude that independent expenditures, including those made by corporations, do not give rise to corruption or the appearance of corruption,” Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote.

Combined, the rulings allowed individuals, unions and other organizations to contribute freely to political action committees that are independent of political candidates.

Super PAC Controversies

Critics who believe money corrupts the political process say the court rulings and creation of super PACs opened the floodgates to widespread corruption. In 2012, U.S. Sen. John McCain warned: “I guarantee there will be a scandal, there is too much money washing around politics, and it’s making the campaigns irrelevant.”

McCain and other critics said the rulings allowed wealthy corporations and unions to have an unfair advantage in electing candidates to federal office.

In writing his dissenting opinion for the Supreme Court, Justice John Paul Stevens opined of the majority: “At bottom, the Court’s opinion is thus a rejection of the common sense of the American people, who have recognized a need to prevent corporations from undermining self-government since the founding, and who have fought against the distinctive corrupting potential of corporate electioneering since the days of Theodore Roosevelt.”

Another criticism of super PACs arises from the allowance of some nonprofit groups to contribute to them without disclosing where their money came from, a loophole that allows so-called dark money to flow directly into elections.

Super PAC Examples

Super PACs spend tens of millions of dollars in presidential races.

Some of the most powerful include:

• Right to Rise, a super PAC that spent more than $86 million supporting former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush’s failed bid for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016.
• Conservative Solutions PAC, which spent nearly $56 million supporting U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio’s failed bid for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016.
• Priorities USA Action, which spent more than $133 million supporting Hillary’s Clinton‘s bid for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2016 and backed President Barack Obama in 2012. Another prominent pro-Hillary super PAC is Ready for Hillary.
• New Day for America, which spent more than $11 million supporting Ohio Gov. John Kasich‘s campaign for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016.

Editorial Comment Super Pacs have a lot of influence in U.S politics, helped by wealthy Jewish donors. From the U.S down, Western style democracies are a sham, but feminists go along with a system as long as it deludes them, and helps them to delude others, into thinking it is mainly about their rights and fight for equality.

To paraphrase Lincoln. ‘You only have to fool some of the people some of the time.’ So get them young, especially ambitious or frustrated young women, who loved it when deadpan Hilary Clinton ( the clue to her is in the eyes ) shrieked ‘Human Rights are Women’s Rights and Women’s Rights are Human Rights’. The only time she laughs, I suspect, is when she is going to the bank. Charles Close August 27th 2019

Police do not have a particularly dangerous job. August 19th 2019

I get sick and tired of hearing what heroes the police are every time one is hurt, or the rare event of them being killed. As someone on the receiving end of their malice, lies and cover ups, I cannot be expected to like them.

As a commercial driver, my life is seriously at risk very day. Drving north on the A41 back from busy Essex and London today, I saw a badly wrecked Bidfood lorry.

Few people appreciate truck drivers until the goods don’t arrive. It may seem strange that I left the cosey world of media and teaching for trucking, but hopefully all will be revealed in due course.

One thing I would not do in my current work- which I have done for the past 12 years- is deliberately attempt to stop a moving vehicle by standing in front of it, or expect to be called a hero if I did.

To call the police heroes on the basis of an officer being run down by a car is no more reasonable than calling them all killers/liars on the basis of what Stephen Harwood did when he caused the death of innocent Ian Tomlinson, the attempted cover up that followed or when Cresida Dick gave the order for her minions to shoot to kill Charles deMendez. I am sure comfortable people with so much to lose will disagree and boycott this site.

My police readers will download my comments as evidence of my bad deranged attitude toward them, whilst continuining to avoid my questions. No doubt the strait jacket is waiting for me.

This is the most serious aspect of British policing, i.e brainwashing the public into believing we need more of them, when most are engaged on intelligence gathering, sureveilance and dealing with domestics caused by the collapes of family life in Britain.

Meanwhile, the prime suspects in the recent death of a TVP officer are travellers, living on a campsite where the police tend to avoid because of the closed community the travellers live in. That is multi culture. Farmer Tony Martin was jailed for shooting one of the travellers who was robbing his home.

I have also worked on farms and in construction, so speak from experience.

The 5 most dangerous jobs in the UK including farmers, plumbers and lorry drivers

In 2012, 148 Brits were killed at work, and thousands more die every year from workplace illnesses like lung cancer. Don’t suffer in silence, make a claim…

The risk of accident, injury and death in the workplace is surrounded by myth and misconception, so here are a few sobering facts.

In 2012, 148 people were killed at work in the UK – that’s one worker in every 200,000, and nearly three people every week.

It seems a lot, but averaged out over the last five years, Britain’s workplace fatality rate is the lowest across all EU member states.

In 2012 there were 78,222 serious injuries to employees, this is in addition to 175,000 injuries requiring more than seven days off work.

Each year, over 4,500 UK citizens die from lung cancer and respiratory illness, mostly due to having worked with asbestos in the past.

Thousands more perish from other occupational cancers caused by exposure to chemicals  and other environmental hazards.

In fact, it’s estimated that some 13,000 people in the UK die each year from long-term illnesses that are at least partly caused by their work.

Asbestos tops the list of causes, with the next biggest being silica, diesel engine exhaust, and mineral oils.

So, while most of us get up for work every morning with a degree of confidence that we’ll be coming home again in the evening, it’s by no means a certainty.

Top 5 most dangerous jobs in the UK

1. Agriculture

While only 1% of the workforce is employed in agriculture, the industry accounts for roughly 20% of workplace fatalities.

Approximately 33 farmers and farm workers are killed on the job each year.

2. Construction

Although only about 5% of UK employees work in construction, it accounts for 22% of fatal industrial injuries and 10% of reported major injuries.

Nearly a quarter of all workplace fatalities are the result of falling from a height. 60% of fatal falls occur in the building industry.

3.  Scaffolders, roofers, and steeplejacks

The Manufacturing Industry represents about 10% of the British workforce but is responsible for 25% of deaths, and 16% of reported injuries to employees.

And around 2,000 occupational cancer deaths each year result from past exposure to toxic substances in the manufacturing sector.

4. Waste and recycling

It may employ only about 0.6% of the workforce, but it’s responsible for 10 fatalities, roughly 7% of the total, and 2.8% of reported injuries.

A third of the fatalities in this sector are due to employees being struck by vehicles.

5. Road drivers

Traffic accidents are responsible for a high proportion of injuries and death in society in general, and work related casualties are no exception, with around 25% of road fatalities involving a driver who is at work.

The GMB estimates that work vehicles are involved in over 54,000 crashes in the UK each year – about 150 every day.

Serious Assaults on British Police Officers August 13th 2019

There were 10,399 serious assaults on British police officers at work in the last 12 months, representing a 37% rise, according to official figures.

Mainstream media and police officialdom explain this as a sign of increasing violence, which it may be to some extent. But these people are always tardy when it comes to explaining why Britain is more violent. I don’t think it is due to lack of police officers or that more stop and search will make much difference.

Stop and search has always been problematic in the post World War Two era. This has much to do with issues of policing predominantly immigrant communities. From the get go, white police officers revealed issues with Britain’s black communities.

Modern police training may be high on the PCs having PC jargon, but poor hard pressed immigrant and working class white communities tend to disttrust the police as they struggle to make a living and survive. During the 1985 Coal Miners strike, Metropolitan Police officers ridiculed striking miners on the picket line by waving their overtime pay slips at them.

My cousin was a police sergeant based in a coal mining area at the time, Stoke on Trent. Those were dark days and a Thatcher revolution for the police and so much else.

Being a graduate is not what it used to be, with even remedial students getting on the continous assessment courses, and many subjects low on intellectual requirements.

However, simple minded students, flourshing their credentials will be welcome in Boris Johnson’s ‘New Model Army’ of police officers, possibly over confident and not helped by a police training programme which, for many years, has encouraged the police to keep emotional distance from the public- unless they are rich members of the public. That is why the police officers involved in Plebgate were so upset when a toff from the government did not show them respect.

Mainstream media and police top brass milking the terrible assaults on two police officers in the last few days, claiming all cops are heroes is not going to help. On a day to day basis lower class people are treated abrasively by the police. Corruption at high level and cover ups are also issues in a system wide open for insider abuse.

This website does not condone crime of any kind, least of all violence towards anyone, but the police are not little white knights in shining armour. They are well paid officials who like asking questions , working on the new princiole of guilty until proven guilty, but they are very shy about answering questions about their conduct and misconduct. They routinely withold evidence, to get convictions and meet targets.

The new Independent Office for Police Conduct is just a revamp of the old IPCC nd is no more than a mailing service for the police.

Epstein Lates August 13th 2019

It is being acknowledged by U.S authorities and media that Jeffrey Epstein could not have killed himself using any equipment or structure in his cell for that purpose.

A lot of rich and pwoerful people travelled on the Epstein jet, enjoying parties on board and at his luxury homes, where there were always lots of young attractive girls. Epstein was protesting his innocence and angry with his treatment.

As a member of the elite he could have easily turned on his old cronies, blaming them for his predicament and to save his own skin.

Bill Clinton speny years fighting off sex assault claims and the Monica Lewinsky affair nearly pulled him down. The ‘little black dress’ with semen stains was a tricky one for Bill to explain, but he has a way with words and Hilary to protect him.

Meanwhile, I wonder how Prince Andrew is bearing up.

Prince Andrew faces new Jeffrey Epstein Anguish

August 11th 2019

How on earth can such a key prisoner – with obvious links to the U.S great and good, and others, as the image of the late Jeffrey Epstein with Prince Andrew here shows- commit suicide in a cell.? Cells are supposed to be suicide proof and are video monitored- don’t ask how I know.

This guy was considered a suicide risk. He was also a potential target because he knew the rich guys who were buying sex with underage girls. His death is reminiscent of Dr Stephen Ward and the John Profumo affair.

I know what the Anglo Americn elite are capable of. As my old history teacher, John Skinner, used to keep reminding me: ‘He who sups with the Devil should use a long spoon.’

How Britain can’t let go of Hong Kong August 11th 2019

BRITAIN has vowed “unwavering” support for protesters demonstrating against Chinese rule in Hong Kong but urged against violent actions.

Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt promised to continue his support after China warned Britain not to interfere in the affairs of its former colony.

The foreign ministry in Beijing responded to Mr Hunt after he issued a statement reiterating support for the protests.

A spokesman was quoted as saying that Britain needed to “know its place and stop interfering” in what was a “purely internal affair” for China.

Hong Kong became a British colony at the end of the First Opium War in 1842.
Britain obtained a 99-year lease for the strategically important territory which expired in 1997.

Since then, Hong Kong has been part of China, but kept laws allowing citizens more freedoms than those enjoyed in the mainland.

Protesters forced their way into Hong Kong’s parliament following outrage about a controversial new law which would allow enforced extraditions to mainland China.

The Portugese had been the first European power involved in establishing relations in the area. They managed to create a trading factory and concession at Macao from 1557. There were many goods that could be acquired relatively cheaply and sold for many more times its price back in Europe; silk, spices, tea, etc… The other European nations wanted to get involved and to take a cut of the huge profits that were being made by the Portugese. The English East India Company sent their first ship to Macao in 1635 but found it difficult and prohibitive to engage trade with the Portugese. Trading directly with the Chinese was not much easier. Trade was restricted to the port of Canton where English traders had to deal with one of 13 merchants selected by the Chinese government. These were referred to as the ‘Hong’. For the Eighteenth Century, the English East India Company had a monopoly of British trade from Asia at least which in many ways counter-balanced the Chinese trading restrictions. However, in 1833 the British government ended the East India Company monopoly and traders rushed to fill the vacuum. These traders would become known as Taipans and they competed voraciously to get hold of the precious Chinese commodities. Unfortunately, they did not have many products that were of interest to the Chinese – silver was preferred but was in short supply. Therefore, many of the Taipans resorted to using Opium as a trading commodity. The Chinese government was concerned at the debilitating effects of the drug and wished to prevent the inflow of Opium into the country. To this end, in 1838 they appointed a new Imperial High Commissioner to Canton, Lin Tse-hsu, to stamp out the importation of Opium. The British traders were to use his policies as an excuse to force the Chinese government to relax its restrictive trade practices. The so-called Opium War started in 1839 and lasted until 1842. The Royal Navy was able to impose its will on the unsophisticated Chinese fleet. As a result, the British were able to make demands upon the Chinese government before lifting their blockades and stopping the bombardment of important ports. The Chinese agreed to cede the rocky island of Hong Kong to Britain as a free port with rights of trade to the mainland. In fact, both the Chinese and British negotiators got into trouble. Kishen, the Chinese negotiator, was blamed for ceding inviolable Chinese territory to the foreigners. Whilst Charles Eliot, the British negotiator, was lambasted for acquiring such an unpromising rocky outcrop with virtually no indiginous population and no history as a port whatsoever. Over time though, the acquisition would prove invaluable to the British.

On taking possession of the island, it was estimated that the population was no more than 1,500 who mostly made their living from fishing. Disaster seemed to afflict the early colony especially when a number of Typhoons devastated the flimsy wooden structures that had been hastily thrown up. However, the increase in trading activity continued to act as a spur to the growth and development of the fledgeling colony. By just 1844, the population had increased twelve-fold to 19,000. It was not just British traders who were attracted to the colony. Other European traders took advantage of the free port and ease of establishing businesses on the island. Chinese labourers from the mainland were attracted to work on the infrastructure and for the companies themselves. The island also became a means of emigration for many Chinese who could board ships for Singapore, Malaya, California or Indonesia. The Tai Ping Rebellions brought another wave of refugees who sought to escape the instability of the mainland. By 1861 the population had grown to 120,000 and space was beginning to be an issue. The British sought to expand their foothold, and the Second Opium War with China provided just such an opportunity. In 1860, the Peking convention was signed which ceded to Britain the Kowloon peninsula (up to Boundary Street) and Ngon Sun Chau. Britain had now acquired land on the mainland of China itself – and this was to be in perpetuity. This provided some additional space for building and allowed the port facilities to expand. Although it was still not enough and in 1898 the British leased the New Territories together with 235 islands for a period of 99 years. The beginning half of the Twentieth Century saw further turmoil in China as the 1912 revolution occurred and a period of political instability ensued. The Japanese invasions saw yet more refugees head towards the British colony. By 1939, the population had risen to 1.6 million. www.britishempire.co.uk/maproom/hongkong.htm

‘UNWAVERING’ SUPPORT FROM BRITISH EMPIRE LAUGHED AT.

The Chinese spokesman said the Beijing government was “extremely dissatisfied” with the way Britain had “continuously gesticulated” about Hong Kong.

Editorial Comment It is interesting to contrast the British Government’s attitude to protestors at home in Britain. Hong Kong is a hot bed of financial corruption with many fearing extradition to China. Britain is soft on finacial corruptio and has much sympathy with money making Hong Kong. Britain’s imperialist die hard elite hide behind human rights and pro democracy rhetoric.

I offer no judgement, just ridicule for the hypoctits who run Little Britain as if it is still an imperial force. No amount of multi cultural msytification should be allowed to hide the truth about this island. The only culture that matters here is the ruling one, with its love of money and divide and rule methods.

Shipping Companies abandon British flag July 24th 2019

www.facebook.com/rj.cook.9081

Stenna Shipping line et al are considering abandoning the British flag of convenience in the wake of their tanker being impounded by the Iranian government. They are unhappy that Britain’s depleted Royal Navy cannot protect shipping. At the moment 4,500 ships fly the famous British Red Ensign, with ships registered in Britain, The Cayman Islands or Gibraltar. The attraction has been that the taxpayer funded Royal Navy was always there to protect the big business of international merchant shipping.

Polly Toynbee of the Guardian wrote the following piece of Britain’s record in merchant shipping back on August 30th 2016- Guardian.

Malaviya Twenty has been moored in Great Yarmouth docks since December. To look at, it’s no rustbucket, kept in good shape by its Indian crew – but when I visited a week ago, they hadn’t been paid by the ship’s owners for all those months. This is a story about the fate of shipping in Britain – an often forgotten industry, though we depend on it for over 90% of our imports and exports, and for most of what is stacked on supermarket shelves.

Captain refuses to abandon ship after eight months stranded in Sussex port

Waiting for their wages, the 12 crew members spent their time growing vegetables – onions, garlic, cabbages and tomatoes – in pots on the deck. The company hoped they would give up, but they are holding out for their pay. “They’re trying to wear us down,” says one officer: they want no names printed for fear of blacklisting. He can’t go home without his pay as he has taken out loans to keep his family.

Why was this ship contracted here in the first place? That reveals much about British shipping and the fate of seafarers. This is an Indian supply ship sailing between the British coast and UK offshore oil rigs and wind farms. Despite this, their foreign owners need not pay the UK minimum wage: rates are often a third less than for British sailors.

The trade union Nautilus International,which often helps stranded crews, has stepped in, calling in the UK’s Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA). This means the ship is officially prevented from leaving port until the men are paid.

Its sister ship Malaviya Seven has been similarly holed up in Aberdeen. This crew were owed a total of $380,000 (£290,000) in June: some has been paid following MCA intervention, but Paul Keenan of Nautilus says $200,000 is still owing. The ship, worth millions, could be sold off to pay its debts.

The shipping industry is a prime example of what an unfettered free market does to a workforce, of globalisation at its reddest in tooth and claw. Flying flags of convenience, British shipping has been allowed to register in low-pay, low-regulation countries. That exodus took off in the wicked 1980s when the number of British merchant navy officers was cut by two-thirds, replaced by cheaper foreign staff. Now only a third of British-owned shipping is registered under a British flag.

Can Britain rule its own waves again after Brexit, restoring its ships to the UK flag with decent pay and safety conditions? No chance, since Britain has been the strongest lobby in Europe against reform. Of EU nations, Britain protects its own sailors least from unfair, undercutting competition, and issuing most “certificates of equivalent competency” to foreign mariners so they can work on its ships.

The three politicians who now command the Brexit negotiations are all extreme free marketeers. Once outside the EU, don’t expect welfare, wages and working conditions to be high among their priorities as they attempt to strike new trade deals. Indeed, the risk is that after Brexit shipping companies based in the UK will try to drop existing EU regulations. Others may leave because they need an EU base: Stena Line warned immediately after the referendum that it might re-flag its UK vessels.

A manning directive to ensure that ships sailing between EU states are paid and regulated under EU law has failed to gain approval in Brussels for years, defeated by ship owners wanting to hire cheaper non-EU crews.

Compare this with how the US protects its industry: all ships working between US ports must be US-built and crewed. Many countries do likewise. But in Britain and the EU it’s a global free-for-all, where the cheapest contract wins. The result is a collapse in the British-registered shipping industry, now only 0.8% of the total worldwide. Why would owners pay British wages when they can hire crews elsewhere for much less?

There has been a steep drop in training British mariners: companies are obliged to train some cadets, but then rarely take them on. More than 10 keen, well-qualified young people apply for every merchant navy training place; but despite promising good apprenticeships, the government has just cut funding for maritime training. Numbers are falling fast, though thousands of experienced officers are needed onshore as harbourmasters and marine pilots.

The City employs 15,000 of these trained officers in marine insurance, who arbitrate in causes of accidents and other shipping specialisms. A government report last year dodged all the real issues, but it did warn of the urgent need “to replenish and develop the skills needed to maintain our position as a world-leading maritime centre”. The 90,000 UK seafarers of 40 years ago have now become only 19,000.

In Britain, few employees are as brutally undercut as these. Ship owners fly foreign flags of convenience that allow them to fire British crews and hire others from the poorest countries, paying the lowest rates in a race to the bottom. Meanwhile the government turns a blind eye.

The sea has ebbed in the national consciousness, though it matters as much as ever to an island. Its romance still draws keen recruits, but it’s a dangerous workplace, with climate change causing more violent storms. Britain depends for everything on this buccaneering industry, yet wages are undercut and jobs lost through aggressive globalisation. As with the equally essential road transport industry, the state steps back where it should step up.

Two days ago Malaviya Twenty’s owners paid off some of the crew, who are flying home – though the ship will be detained until all wages are fully paid. And as the Nautilus union protests: “The exploitation of these crews directly undermines our own shipping industry with unfair competition.”

British politics focuses too little on the reality of working lives. Many who voted Brexit overestimated the impact of migration on their own low pay, or the lack of housing and public services. But here’s a case of crude, obvious labour-market abuse by employers substituting cheaper foreign staff.

If one company does it and undercuts the rest, then all must follow suit in bidding for contracts. Only government intervention can prevent a race to the bottom that is eroding established working rights in so many sectors.

Britain’s Cameron appointed puppet ambassador to U.S resigns after secret memo leaks- The British Elite love their secrets, and still call Britain a democracy. July 10th 2019.

Kim Darroch has resigned as British ambassador to the United States, following soured relations with the US President’s administration.

Daroch has the typical upper middle class background of the ambassador and senior British Civil Service. Darroch was born in the village of South Stanley in County Durham on 30 April 1954.^[6] He was educated at exclusive Abingdon School and at Durham University (Hatfield College), from where he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in zoology in 1975.^[4][7]

His resignation comes after leaked diplomatic documents described Donald Trump and his administration as “inept” and “uniquely dysfunctional”, according to the memos published by the Mail on Sunday.

Mr Darroch reportedly said Mr Trump’s presidency could “crash and burn” and “end in disgrace”, in the cache of secret cables and briefing notes sent back to Britain seen by the newspaper.

Gove: Brexit might not happen on 31 October

Conservative leadership candidate Michael Gove says the latest Brexit deadline – 31 October – is “arbitrary” and he is “not wedded” to it. But he said any delay – in order to pass a deal – would be a matter of weeks, not months. Other candidates, including Boris Johnson, say the UK must leave the EU by the deadline, deal or no deal. The UK was supposed to leave on 29 March, but Parliament did not approve Mrs May’s withdrawal agreement. Source BBC The truth is that Britain is never going to leave the single market, the referendum was a con to get posh boy Cameron elected. The political elite, over 90% univerity elected and far from diverse, are the ones deciding. The term democracy is bandied around to deceive is. A deal is not leaving. Deception is a very serious matter. But this is the elite that has no problem extraditing Julian Assange for shopping U.S war criminals while taking the moral high ground about Trump for his sexual antics. Britain has big issues with sex and gender hypocrisy. It worries the country more than anything else. What about dealing with Gove the Class A drug user- can’t do that because it has to be him or Rudd as the next Tory leader? apple.dene@btinternet.com

‘A Brief History of Slime’ by Robert Cook Posted March 20th 2020

As far as I can see and hear, mainstream media and the authorities are as one, evolving out of the primeval swamp.

Listening to the celebrated vastly over paid TV darling Robert Peston was the last straw.

There is never a word as to why this Coronavirus matters more than traditional flu, or why it makes sense to shut down the country, let alone the whole of Europe.  

There has to be an agenda or something they dare not tell us.  Added to that the peculiar weather is freezing me as I write, because the shut down is bankrupting me,

So, I wonder what is going on and why ?  What is this country about ?  I expected leaving the EU to bring out the worst in our home grown patronising bureaucratic elite and self congratulating media folk, all of the same class.  

The money people are going to make a killing. Selling stock now at a good price, causing massive falls ready to buy it all back again when the fake crisis is over, along with asset stripping and mortgage repossessions.  As if their monopoly of wealth is not enough, like all pigs and bullies they want the lot.

Of course there are ‘has been’ idiots like Jeremy Corbyn who has his own millions, expecting this engineered crisis to bring forth the end of Capitalism.  All those extra police and soldiers he likes will make sure that doesn’t happen.  I heard Peston say they are going to have soldiers guarding Downing Street, freeing the police for ‘more important work.  That is pretty close to martial law.  Soon martial music, with which Britain excels itself, will be playing on the radio.

There are many myths about this country.  The media are all about keeping those myths alive.  The favourite myth is that we are a nation of immigrants.  That is bullshit to justify the sort of mass immigration leading to free flow of everything, including exotic illnesses- not that I believe Coronavirus is that simple, though free movement made it easier to spread.

Britain can trace its existence as an entity, rather than country, from the Ancient Britons.  Tribal warfare and tribal leaders led to a sort of dubious order, as tribes consolidated into ever larger groups under the most ruthless of all warrior leaders.  Then came the Romans, the Saxons and the Vikings from what we now call Europe.

Political power came , as it still does, from weaponry, brute force lies and deception.  By the time I was born, chain smoker George VI was dying of cancer while his empire died from over stretching itself during the Second World War.

Both World Wars were fought by young mainly white working class men on the front line, leaving their women folk bereaved and struggling.  My own father never recovered from it physically or mentally, being dead by the age of 41.  

By this time, Queen Elizabeth II had been on the throne for 21 years, with her remnant Empire renamed the ‘Commonwealth’.  The only thing common about British wealth was the forelock tugging morons who propped up the hypocritical British Ruling Class. There is an old British saying, ‘Shit floats.’ It floats in the British swamp.

Henry VII is reckoned to have fathered modern Britain.  The man, who from the safety of being behind the lines, had his soldiers defeat the so called ‘child murdering’ Richard III at Bosworth Field.  

Safe from overt challenge, he built up the army and navy, going on to further warfare and conquest.  His wife murdering lying pox ridden son Henry VIII kept up the good work.  By this time the Tudors had married into the Scots Stuarts and all would have been well, if Henry had not abolished the Catholic Church to achieve the divorce the imprisoned pope could not grant.

British Royalty got even richer by stealing Catholic assets.  That was in 1536.  Back in 1513, the same fat bullying monarch earned the Pope’s award as ‘Defender of the Faith’. He could put ‘Fid Def’ on his coins as a reward for a rubbishing a pamphlet written by Bishop Martin Luther, about Catholic Church corruption in Europe.

Is it just sick or ironic that Jesus’s peace loving teaching has led to centuries of factionalism and murder among its constituent parts, Judaism, Christianity and Islam.  Its followers are too stupid and ignorant to realise they are still being played by the slimy rich who despise them.

In my life time, starting during the early post war years. I remember London’s bomb sites, firts black immigrants, Richard Dimbleby and an education system set upon teaching me my place.  I recall the football lessons, another sort of religion meant to bind us together in the idiot culture.  I recall the credit squeezes, the export drives, and above all ‘good old British ‘Divide and Rule Hierarchical snobbery.

Apropos the latter, it is no surprise we had years of industrial conflict, economic stagnation and the con that joining the EU would make it all better.  

Well, we have gone full circle.  Margaret Thatcher brought in the ‘Big Bang’ which made the elite dangerously rich, while the masses became ever more stupid, soothed by the rise of so called reality TV.  Then along came mad eyes Tony Blair who set fire to the Middle East and said he wanted Britain ti become the Hong Kong of Europe.

This is a land of adult alcoholism, sexually repressed hypocrits, corrupt incomptent police and politicians, brainwashing teachers, youthful drug addiction, rising suicide, mental illness, failing relationships, gang crime, and war between the sexes led by militant lesbian greedy resentful feline feminists who want to be men like their daddies.  

Now on top of it all, we have Corona Virus Crisis ( CVC ), most probably elite man made, with the creeping intrusion of unquestioned ‘Martial Law.’  Spoiled Women MPs and the media will vote and support it in droves.  They are part of the slime and the crime.

Has anyone seen the film ‘Outbreak‘ where they shut down New York. Of course you have to be mad to believe in ‘conspiracies/’ That is the beauty of the world of slime According to Boris Johnson, we could be past the worst in 8 weeks as long as we do what the government tells us. Robert Cook

Wuhan coronavirus pandemic STAGED to cover-up the
public health crisis caused by the intensive 5G roll-out
in Wuhan City in 2019

---

SPECIAL NOTE: It’s of vital importance for every bioweapon expert, medical researcher, bioengineering scientist and investigative journalist to comprehend the true complexity of this global depopulation scheme and major move toward global governance.  That’s why the following extensive report is a very long read indeed, which will get even longer with each successive update.  The Wuhan coronavirus pandemic is actually an immense and convoluted series of black operations that are taking place on several levels each with multiple layers, in different dimensions and on every continent.  This is not 5D chess, it’s 12D chess; and it’s been planned for many decades for this very moment in time.  Only with this correct understanding will folks come to apprehend how various furtive operations, which appear to be working at cross purposes, are really overseen by the same plotters.  Some of the most weighty explanations articulated below may even seem to be mutually exclusive—they are not.  Some of the most radioactive info/data is only now being emailed to us as it will continue to be for the foreseeable future; after all, the more time that goes by, the more the hard truths will surface.  Therefore, it’s the “Updates” posted at the bottom of this page that will contain the most current and sensitive intelligence.  The final point here is that “staged” does NOT mean this is a hoax; only that many pieces of this op are choreographed and carried out to have maximum effect on the targeted populations.

State of the Nation

QUESTION: Is the bioengineered coronavirus pandemic being purposefully propagated globally in order to further facilitate the military deployment of 5G worldwide?

The answer to that critical question is of paramount importance to every person on the planet because of how forcefully the 5G juggernaut is rolling across the land.

---

We all knew they were going to do something big—VERY BIG!

But the rapidly unfolding depopulation scenario that utilizes the Wuhan coronavirus, 5G, forced vaccinations and chemtrails is quite ambitious by any standard.

5G Roll-out

There’s nothing more sacred to the implementation of the New World Order agenda — WORLDWIDE — than the meteoric military deployment of 5G and subsequent build-out of the Internet of Things (IoT).

Truly, this absurdly impossible project represents the capstone of the nefarious NWO conspiracy to stealthily inaugurate a One World Government.

Nonetheless, the NWO globalist cabal has gone completely mad and they will try whatever they can to set up their long-planned Global Control Matrix, which requires a fully operational 5G energy grid as a prerequisite to a fully functioning Internet of Things.

Wuhan City was established as an official 5G Demonstration Zone in 2019.  The Chinese government planned on using that major metropolis as a showcase for all the ‘dazzling’ benefits that a 5G energy grid is supposed to offer wireless IT users.  Then they planned on setting up Wuhan City as an urban flagship for the Internet of Things.

---

Wuhan City Was expected to have 10,000 5G base stations operating by the end of 2019

---

Make no mistake about it: The activation of a major 5G energy grid in a megalopolis like Wuhan City will inevitably have HUGE health and environmental impacts.

The second they flipped the switch on 5G in Wuhan, the entire populace was immediately exposed to extremely harmful electromagnetic frequencies and microwave radiation.

In point of fact, the specific radio-frequency signal ranges and microwave radiation output necessary to power up a working 5G power grid are well known to be inordinately unsafe and dangerous to human health.  As follows:

MILITARY INTEL REPORT Proves Government Has Known 5G Radio-frequency Ranges & Microwave Radiation Are Harmful to Human Health

Not only has the U.S. Military scientifically documented the adverse health effects associated with 5G (as well as 4G and 3G), there is now hard evidence that proves the U.S. Federal Government has knowingly lied about those numerous health hazards for decades.  As follows:

Hard evidence proves US gov’t lied about 5G. Navy research report confirms numerous health dangers.

Which brings us to the single most perilous aspect of the military deployment of 5G—KILL ZONES.

All the scientific evidence available in the public domain now indicates that wherever 5G infrastructure is located in the greatest concentration generating the most powerful EMFs and microwaves, those 5G Super-Hotspots will effectively function as kill zones.  As follows:

5G Super-Hotspots: You better know where the “kill zones” are located!

In order to fully grasp the highly destructive and deadly potential of these rapidly emerging 5G Super-Hotspots, the following video exposé presents a scenario where the most powerful “directed energy weapons” will be located within these 5G kill zones.

5G WEAPONRY: Microwave Radiation Technology Being Deployed as Depopulation Warfare, Full Spectrum Dominance & Total Human Control (Video)

ISRAEL: World Headquarters for the 5G Roll-out

Now, this is where the plot thickens.

The Zionist Government of Israel has made it a global mission to commandeer the military deployment of 5G throughout the world community of nations.

Because the future capital for the planned One World Government is Jerusalem, the ruling Zionists know that they must control the entire 5G roll-out, just as they are presently (and unlawfully) doing in the USA.  There is no greater promoter of 5G than President Donald Trump, which is why he has even stated with great pride that he can’t wait for 6G in the United States!

---

All of this rabid 5G development and IoT build-out surreptitiously overseen by Tel Aviv demands an answer to why 5G is not permitted in Israel.

Answer: Here’s why 5G is NOT allowed in Israel where it was developed

---

There’s only one way to correctly comprehend the pivotal role that Israel plays in the emerging New World Order.  The rogue, criminal, apartheid State of Israel was literally created as the global headquarters for the Khazarian Mafia high command.  Which begs the question:

How, exactly, was Israel established and empowered over the course of the 20th century?

This is how!

By way of the
Armenian Genocide,
World War I,
Bolshevik Revolution,
Spanish Flu Genocide,
The Great Depression,
World War II,
The Holocaust,
9/11 Terrorist Attacks,
and the War on Terror
which all have one thing in common.

It’s entirely true that: “Each of the above-listed cataclysms was stealthily carried out to create the modern State of Israel and/or to greatly advance the clandestine Greater Israel project.” (Source: The Secret Agenda Behind the Trump Mideast Peace Plan)

Huawei

When you follow the BIG money behind Huawei, it becomes clear that the largest Chinese multinational technology company is really owned and operated by the International Banking Cartel.

It’s crucial to understand that “Huawei has deployed its products and services in more than 170 countries. Huawei overtook Ericsson in 2012 as the largest telecommunications equipment manufacturer in the world, and overtook Apple in 2018 as the second-largest manufacturer of smartphones in the world, behind Samsung Electronics”.[1]

Publicly-traded corporations the size of Huawei are only permitted to acquire so much market share with the blessing of the International Banking Cartel (IBC).  The IBC is in turn overseen by the Khazarian Mafia whose headquarters happens to be in Tel Aviv.  This is precisely why China was awarded Israel’s Port of Haifa contract in 2019 which will actually force the U.S. Sixth Fleet to dock elsewhere. See: How did China ever win Israel’s Port of Haifa contract over the US?

The relatively hidden state of affairs between China and Israel has obscured the profound influence that Tel Aviv exerts over Beijing.  That well-concealed relationship developed as a result of China being released from the throes of the Cultural Revolution that ended in 1976 when it was permitted to transition to a market-oriented economy by the International Banking Cartel.

“Since the introduction of economic reforms in 1978, China’s economy has been one of the world’s fastest-growing with annual growth rates consistently above 6 percent.”[2]

The deal that China made with its secret masters in London and New York City is quite similar to the one that President Boris Yeltsin made with the very same banksters (IBC) which covertly approved the Fall of the Berlin Wall.  Both Presidents Gorbachev and Yeltsin were only able to facilitate the liberation of Russia from the Western-installed communist regime that ruled the Soviet Union by agreeing to a new form of “Rule by Oligarchs”—Western controlled oligarchs.  Except that Vladimir Putin patriotically reneged on those plunderous agreements in the interest of “protecting Russia”. See: Secret History Revealed — Putin Played Critical Role After The Pre-Planned Collapse Of The USSR

However, in the case of China, what was imposed by the Western banksters was a novel form of predatory capitalist-imposed slavery after the yoke of communism was removed by the IBC.  That’s why there are so many sweat shops all over China today.  That’s also why 5G has been rolled out in some of the largest Chinese cities without even an iota of safety testing.  Powerful transnational corporations (like Huawei) have been granted slaveowner power by the IBC to run corporate plantations all over China.

---

COMMUNISM: A Jewish Creation for World Takeover

---

The essential point here is that communism was first used by the banksters in China (and Russia) to establish an enormous archipelago of concentration camps for slave-workers nationwide, which were then converted into corporate plantations after the entirely staged ‘fall’ of communism.  For example, Apple, Inc has been frequently blasted for running inhumane factory operations (aka sweatshops) which depict the corporate plantation conditions.

Why China?

Who can debate that the Trump administration has harassed China as much as they have tormented Iran?  What follows is the short list of some of the worst transgressions the Neocon Zionists in the White House have committed against China.

In light of the US-staged Hong Kong protests, U.S. tariff regime against China, threat of economic sanctions against nations working with Huawei, CIA-inflamed Xinjiang conflict involving the Muslim Uyghurs, provocative sailing of US Navy warships through the Taiwan Strait, transparent political prosecution of Huawei’s CFO, ravaging of China’s pig farms by another DARPA-bioengineered animal virus, FedEx thwarted multiple sensitive deliveries to China in 2019, etc. the Chinese government has been under withering attack since 2018.
(Source: OPERATION CORONA BIOTERROR)

All of this bellicose behavior was directed toward softening up the Chinese government.  Not only does the Zio-Anglo-American Axis demand that Beijing submit to its will, they will not stop their provocations until they do.  The West has always treated the great nations of the East worst than stepchildren, and that will likely never change.  Which is precisely why everything points to China being used as the primary NWO laboratory for the insidiously expanding totalitarian technocracy before the new lab procedures are exported to California and elsewhere around the globe.

---

*The Chinese people are exceptionally computer literate, digitally connected and hooked into the wireless paradigm—to their great detriment.  Many years of exposure to these destructive energies have addicted them to their various information technologies and devices.  It has also rewired their brains in ways they are totally unaware and quite damaging. The same is true in every other nation on Earth where technology rules, but the Chinese are extreme in this regard.

---

The most precarious aspect about the smartphone culture is that many Chinese are susceptible to psychogenic disease and illness, injuries and imbalances.  Of course, these are not limited to physical conditions; they are also being subjected to directed frequencies which will cause serious psychological disorders.  This may be exactly what’s going on right now in Wuhan where many folks might be triggered via their smartphones, particularly after the city-wide PTSD resulting from so much coronavirus uncertainty and inevitable mass anxiety.

It should also be noted that the countless techies in this type of IT society have never lost control like this.  In view of the double whammy of the coronavirus scare and 5G activation, many have been through an unparalleled “shock and awe” experience.  The resulting trauma has put many on edge—LITERALLY.  Hence, it now appears that many folks in places such as Wuhan can be triggered quite easily via their smartphones without even knowing what’s happening.  They can be walking along and suddenly just hit the ground; some even dying on the spot.

The upshot of this discussion is that the NWO controllers are pushing the edge of the envelope with regard to experimenting with sophisticated psychotronic weaponry that is both harmful and deadly.  In the present case, Wuhan is their laboratory and the Wuhanese are the lab rats.  There are other cities in China which are also being exposed to their own unique set of laboratory conditions.

China is also the premier national testing site for the infamous social credit score system– yet another oppressive control mechanism that the globalists will roll out worldwide when it has been perfected there.  The fact that the Chinese government has colluded with the globalist cabal and permitted the citizenry to be abused in this way greatly contributes to the notion that Israel owns China — lock stock and barrel — just as the Zionist banksters did during the days of Red China.

COMMUNIST CHINA: Established by Jewish Revolutionaries and Banksters

Wuhan: Ground Zero

Wuhan, China was specifically chosen to be ground zero for both the 5G roll-out and the coronavirus pandemic.  No one can dispute that Wuhan City has been transformed into a desolate, dystopian 5G demonstration zone where the citizens are literally being used as guinea pigs.  As far as the 5G scientists in Israel are concerned, all Chinese citizens are nothing but chattel and, therefore, usable (and expendable) in any 5G experiment they set up there.

---

Why is Huawei setting up 5G base stations all over Wuhan to help fight the coronavirus?

---

However, these cruel human experiments involve much more than 5G and the coronavirus; they also make use of chemtrails and specific types of industrial pollution generated throughout Hubei Province.  China has a well established reputation for wanton environmental degradation, and Wuhan will surely become a post-apocalyptic wasteland when they are finished with it. See: What in the world are they spraying all over Wuhan City?

Known as “China’s Thoroughfare”, Wuhan occupies a very special place in Chinese history as well as in regard to the astonishing economic boom occurring since the mid-1970s.  Whatever happens in Wuhan can deeply affect the rest of the nation as the coronavirus panic has graphically demonstrated.  It’s as though the producers of this ‘disaster movie’ quite intentionally chose the capital of Hubei Province to be the epicenter of their NWO horror flick so that all of China would tune in.  And so they have!

Wuhan today is considered the political, economic, financial, commercial, cultural and educational center of Central China.^[17] It is a major transportation hub, with dozens of railways, roads and expressways passing through the city and connecting to other major cities.^[23] Because of its key role in domestic transportation, Wuhan is sometimes referred to as “the Chicago of China” by foreign sources.^[3][4][5] The “Golden Waterway” of the Yangtze River and its largest tributary, the Han River, traverse the urban area and divides Wuhan into the three districts of Wuchang, Hankou and Hanyang. The Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge crosses the Yangtze in the city. The Three Gorges Dam, the world’s largest power station in terms of installed capacity, is located nearby.

While Wuhan has been a traditional manufacturing hub for decades, it is also one of the areas promoting modern industrial changes in China. Wuhan consists of three national development zones, four scientific and technological development parks, over 350 research institutes, 1,656 hi-tech enterprises, numerous enterprise incubators, and investments from 230 Fortune Global 500 firms.^[24] It produced GDP of US$224 billion in 2018. The Dongfeng Motor Corporation, an automobile manufacturer, is headquartered in Wuhan. Wuhan is home to multiple notable institutes of higher education, including Wuhan University, which was ranked third nationwide in 2017,^[25] and the Huazhong University of Science and Technology.[3]

Coronavirus

Into this Kafkaesque context, enter the fastidiously bioengineered Wuhan coronavirus.  There are several high-integrity authorities, as well as scientific research studies, which have described what makes this unusually fatal virus a lab-produced bioweapon.  As follows:

---

WUHAN CORONAVIRUS BIOWEAPON: Bioengineered with Virulence Associated Protein (Video)

---

There’s no question that this bioweapon was purposefully bioengineered to target the indigenous Chinese people.  In particular, individuals born from that traditional Asian gene pool and bloodline are affected much more profoundly by coronavirus infections. See: BIOWARFARE: Wuhan Coronavirus is likely another race-targeting bioweapon strategically unleashed throughout China by U.S. military labs

This deliberate racial targeting by the Zionist perps in Israel is being conducted with certain objectives which are well beyond the scope of this exposé.  Suffice it to say that what the whole world is now witnessing in Wuhan is yet another depopulation event and citizen relocation exercise.  Just like the Northern Levant, Israel’s preferred method of waging war is first, genocide, and secondly, forced removal or a coerced exodus.

The same Zionist warmongers will also not hesitate to use any type of terrorism necessary to get the job done.  Just look at what they did on 9/11 in order to stampede the whole world into the utterly fake War on Terror.  There is perhaps no act of terrorism or violent attack the Neocon Zionists would not carry out in order to advance their devastating Greater Israel project as delineated here: Nothing changes until those who secretly rule US are prosecuted for 9/11, JFK, OK City, 5G, Chemtrails, Vaccines….

Should the unparalleled crisis in the greater Wuhan area continue to deteriorate at the current alarming rate, there’s no telling what the government in Beijing will resort to.  Of course, the current government will obey the dictates of their Zionist overlords, even if it means warehousing the citizenry, enforcing vaccinations, pervasive 5G activations, nonstop chemtrailing, etc.  Therefore, how this situation develops over the course of the Winter and Spring of 2020 will reveal both the true purpose and perpetrators of this twisted plot.

Wuhan Coronavirus Bioterrorist Attack Is China’s 9/11, Same Perps

The International Criminal Conspiracy

No one can argue that China has been a world leader of the global 5G roll-out.  Huawei has aggressively sold their 5G program to every country in the world that will listen… or is not intimidated by Trump’s threat of sanctions should they sign on.  In light of this single stark reality, who can argue that China seems clueless to the inherent dangers of 5G … unless they have been paid to be clueless.

The Asians are by their very nature quite vulnerable to the allurements of the latest and greatest IT devices and advancements.  This weakness of national character made China the perfect pitchman for 5G worldwide; little do they know that they are working on behalf of the International Banking Cartel.

Not only do the 5G roll-out and IoT build-out represent the most lucrative business opportunities of all time, they promise an IT paradise for any nation that goes for the bait.  Far from effectuating an improvement in one’s life, these two major developments are essentially the most important pieces of the quickly materializing Global Control Matrix.  Those who opt in to this next generation of the global IT society will not only bask in a field of perilous energies 24/7, they will also be subjected to the highest degree of life-monitoring on the planet today.  And, it’s the 5 EYES + ISRAEL who will be running that most invasive spying and surveillance regime ever.

Now, to pull this off successfully, there was a deal made among all the involved state actors and other corporate and institutional co-conspirators.  All the usual suspects showed up at the table to include the UN, US, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Australia, Japan, Canada, Israel, Big Tech, Big Social Media, Big Pharma, etc.  While that deal was being hammered out, China was working its own deal — on the sly — with Israel—the 5G kingmaker.

What now appears to be the case is that the Chinese government sold its soul to grab all the Eurasian biz.  Once that deal with the devil was made, China has gone full-bore with 5G development and deployment via Huawei, Samsung and other corporate titans to lock down the IT marketplace.  The real problem with this highly dynamic situation is that no one really knew how much China gave up … until now.

The deteriorating plight of Wuhan is a clear illustration of what can and will happen when any nation signs such a malevolent contract with Israel.  Whether the deal unraveled because China balked at the one-sided terms of the contract — after the fact — or whether Israel grossly violated the terms of the contract as they ALWAYS do, remains to be seen.

---

China Slams Israeli Claim That Coronavirus Came From Bioweapon Lab

---

Nevertheless, both the United States and United Kingdom were enlisted as always as the contract enforcement muscle.  Just as the Brits still control Hong Kong and the Yanks wield much influence inside China through so many corporate spies and Christian missionaries, the Chinese government failed to realize their nation could be turned inside out and upside down with the flip of a switch—a 5G switch by Israel, a coronavirus switch by the US/UK, as well as a Hong Kong protest switch by the UK/US.

5G + Coronavirus + Vaccinations + Chemtrails = Depopulation Event

Let’s face it: it didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that the very day 5G was activated in Wuhan along side a recently released virulent flu strain targeting racially susceptible individuals, that people would start dropping like flies.  Such an assault on the immune system is guaranteed to take out a big number of city dwellers in a day and a night.  And drop on the spot they have done, perhaps many more than the world will ever know.

What has really put the coronavirus outbreak on super-steroids is the ongoing chemtrail operations that put the whole province under a dark noxious cloud.  Chemtrails are commonly used to soften up the residents below by introducing various toxic chemicals and pathogenic biologicals into the ambient atmosphere.  Once the bioterrain of any individual has been sufficiently cultivated with triggering toxins and pathogenic micro-organisms, the individual is easily preyed on by highly contagious diseases like the Wuhan coronavirus. See: CHEMTRAIL SYNDROME & FLU: A Global Pandemic Of Epic Proportions

Few are aware but Wuhan, in particular, is notorious for its year-long episodes of debilitating industrial pollution.  Some of this atmospheric engineering is undertaken with purposeful design via specific chemical releases from industrial smokestacks.  Exactly what toxic brews and waste products these discharges are composed of is anyone’s guess.  Nonetheless, industrial airborne effluents in China have reached a whole new plateau of pollution that is also affecting nations near and far. See: Is the Wuhan coronavirus a cover story for this, too?

---

*When toxic chemtrail aerosols are sprayed on the residents below, who are already exposed to a highly infectious coronavirus, while glued to a powerful 5G device after receiving their exceedingly toxic annual flu vaccination, what could possibly go wrong?!

---

Let’s not forget that the Chinese people have been conditioned (read: socially engineered to get their annual flu shots) to VACCINATE, INOCULATE & IMMUNIZE themselves over many years by the regular serious flu outbreaks which have started in some of the largest metro areas, especially Hong Kong, Shanghai and Guangzhou.  With each successive influenza panic, the populace is corralled into the pen of flu vaccine compliance as a means of ‘preventing a mass epidemic’.  It is their civic duty, they are told, to vaccinate the whole family so as to not spread the latest flu bug to the rest of the neighborhood or to larger community.

---

5G is a kill grid that will lead to forced vaccinations! (Video)

---

Undoubtedly, this Wuhan epidemic was set up for years just waiting for the perfect moment for the Zio-Anglo-American Axis powers to press the button.  Now that both the USA and Great Britain have been heavily implicated in this criminal conspiracy, all Israel has to do is avoid having their Mossad fingerprints appearing anywhere near the crime scene.  Even if Zionists do somehow get caught, like they did with 9/11, they are the world’s best at shamelessly blaming their victims as they have already done about the origin of the coronavirus.

These Zionist masters of illusion will employ every trick of the trade they can muster, especially powerful psychological ploys such as predictive programming.  Otherwise, how, pray tell, did this ever happen nearly 40 years ago: PREDICTION OF THE WUHAN CORONOVIRUS IN 1981

---

More Predictive Programming About ‘A virus called Wuhan-400’

---

PSYOP

Undoubtedly, the single most important piece of this captivating psyop is the worldwide initiative to develop a vaccine that will supposedly serve as a prophylactic measure to contracting the coronavirus.  Never has there been such a highly coordinated international effort to produce a vaccine in the wake of any previous epidemic or pandemic.

As always, the dangerously untrustworthy World Health Organization (WHO) is leading the global charge to develop a vaccine that is likely impossible to create within the stated time frames.  What this really means is that Big Pharma has already secretly manufactured massive amounts of a so-called ‘Wuhan coronavirus vaccine’ (which treats the WHO-named COVID-19) that is ready to be injected worldwide, especially wherever the World Health Organization and Bill Gates have set up their countless vaccination centers in Third World countries. See: Bill Gates Accused Of Starting Ebola Outbreak In African Village By Putin

As always, the poorest and least educated nations will be victimized by this meticulously designed psyop.  Something so HUGE as this Western-manufactured coronavirus pandemic provides a unique opportunity for the reptiles at the very top of the food chain to conduct a mass casualty depopulation event the likes of which the world has never seen.

Every person on the planet needs to be aware that this represents only one component of this swiftly manifesting psyop.  Surely, this NWO psychological operation will morph and mutate according to the reactions of each national populace on all 7 continents.  Then, each [HARDWIRED] locale will be responded to by the authorities in a manner so that sufficient consent is manufactured in order to lock each place down … until the whole place is locked down.

Such draconian measures are already being taken in the rich, industrialized nations such as the United Kingdom. See: Look at how they’re locking down the UK because of the coronavirus!

Given these draconian developments worldwide, particularly with respect to unprecedented police powers being given to law enforcement everywhere, this staged pandemic has all the hallmarks of a classic “Problem~Reaction~Solution” black operation being run by the global intelligence community with the C.I.A., MOSSAD and MI6 taking their usual lead.

There is no more effective way to foist a totalitarian One World Government upon the world community of nations than to scare every inhabitant of planet Earth into demanding it.  Of course, coronavirus fearmongering appears to be the path forward for the perps at peak of the world power pyramid, and now that they have started the giant snowball rolling down the hill toward global depop, there may be no stopping it.  But, we wait and see how “deus ex machina” might prevail in this Shakespearean tragedy.  Perhaps the perps will be found out and taken out.

Donald Trump | Xi Jinping | Vladimir Putin

There’s a very curious connection (and disconnection) between the three most prominent leaders on the world stage today regarding this pandemic which demands further treatment if this important analysis is to withstand legitimate scrutiny.

First, there is President Donald Trump.

It’s quite unlikely that Trump knows anything of substance about the real pandemic plot.  He simply could not be trusted by the real perps.  However, that does not mean Trump is not being used all day long to send messages and make pronouncements that serve the various Zionist agendas, and there are several.  What follows is an illustration of how he is being used as a transparent tool in this way.

---

CORONAVIRUSgate: The only way Trump could ever make such a ridiculous prediction about April is because he was ordered to by the real perps!

---

Both Father Trump and Daughter Ivanka have already demonstrated their zeal for all things 5G, and especially how important it is for the U.S. to stay way ahead of the Chinese in this regard.  Why it’s so urgent for the US government to fry its citizens before the Chinese government does the same has never been adequately addressed by Trump … or anyone else in his administration.

---

Contrary to so much false reporting, 5G has NOT been canceled by Trump nor has its harmful effects been eliminated because it’s impossible……5G is currently undergoing a large-scale military deployment nationwide.

---

The key point here is that Trump has always placed MIGA over MAGA. He has done the bidding of Israel as no other POTUS in American history.  Toward that end, Trump has made the 5G roll-out a major priority throughout his term in office because it’s Israel’s top priority.  Not only will Israel gain considerably from the 5G and IoT economic boom, it will provide them with financial independence, which they have been desperately seeking for decades, from every country they routinely fleece and swindle.  See: Germans swindled yet again

Trump’s main thrust (and complaint to his antagonists) is that he wants the USA to lead the worldwide 5G revolution, not China.  He has taken his vicious 5G war against Huawei to Europe and beyond, even threatening every national Huawei customer with economic and/or financial sanctions.  Trump has quite recklessly done all of this after coercing Canada to arrest Huawei’s CFO in order to extradite her to the U.S. to face prosecution for violating his illegal sanctions against Iran—WOW! ! !

---

Here’s Why Canada Arrested Chinese CFO for Trump Admin

---

Then, there is President Xi Jinping.

If ever there was a prez sitting in a roiling stew pot, Jinping is it.  While the Chinese president’s story is way too complicated to understand in any meaningful way in this short assessment, an accurate understanding of his true predicament will reveal the most radioactive back story of all.

What can be said about Jinping is that he seems to be a typical Chinaman who places the advancements of information technology over the good health of the citizenry.  Just as Beijing has always put China’s industrial prowess even over the well-being of the residents living in the capital itself, so, too, is the military deployment of 5G more sacred than the safety of the populace.  That the air quality in Beijing is consistently rated one of the worst in the entire world stands as a smoggy testament to this fact.

That Jinping has even been put in this extremely challenging predicament by his masters in Israel can indicate different things.  But, maybe Jinping had enough of Trump’s intimidation and bullying?  Or, did Trump become impatient with Jinping’s justifiable recalcitrance?  Did Xi attempt to leave the Zionist reservation, which then predicated the rapid explosion of the Wuhan coronavirus?  Or, is Jinping just a powerless figurehead playing his part perfectly in this coronavirus pandemic melodrama?

Clearly, it’s way too early to form firm conclusions about Xi Jinping; but how this tragic drama unfolds will certainly reveal the main plot in Beijing, as well as several Chinese sub-plots.  In the meantime, the whole world is held captive by the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic which has all the elements necessary to collapse the Global Economic & Financial System.  That, too, may be one of the primary objectives of this diligently staged horror show.

Lastly, there is President Vladimir Putin

Putin has made no bones about the fact that 5G and IoT will be fully integrated within the Russian military to whatever extent necessary to stay ahead of the rest of the world, especially the U.S. military.  This stated intention appears to be quite true as Putin knows that existential threats lurk around every corner, and the Russian Motherland has a lot of corners to protect and boundaries to defend.

Putin has not made 5G such a priority for Russian civil society, however.  The corporate sector may be developing 5G networks and IoT infrastructure to gain advantage in the global marketplace, but Moscow seems to be relatively uninvolved.  The Kremlin is well aware of the deleterious effect of the 5G paradigm and only appears to promote it when absolutely required—as a defensive psyop tool.

Putin has been on the forefront of so many vital issues where it concerns human health and environmental protection that it would only make sense that he would not endanger the Russian people with a nationwide 5G roll-out; besides, it’s impossible to do with any level of integrity in a vast country the size of Russia.

Let’s not forget the Brits.

As always, the US-UK Empire stands together when the West takes on the East.  However, the very nature of the so-called special relationship is that London uses Washington, D.C. to do all of its dirty work.  The British are always very careful to elude blame, especially for matters of such great import as they did with the creation of the coronavirus.  While there were several parties involved in that genocidal enterprise, the prime mover was most definitely “The Crown” as seen by the very name — “Coronavirus” — where corona literally means crown.  They did not even try to hide it, did those bloody Brits?!  As follows:

---

CORONAVIRUS was funded and patented by Wellcome Trust (UK, fake sold to GlaxoSmithKline), Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, DARPA, DEFRA (UK), World Health Organization, European Commission (EU) via THE PINBRIGHT INSTUTUTE (UK)

---

Bottom Line: The unintended benefit of all this manufactured chaos by the highest level of the World Shadow Government regarding 5G is that it has brought a LOT of awareness — GLOBALLY — to what is now the single greatest threat to humanity and the biosphere.  Truly, the exceedingly dangerous military deployment of 5G represents an ongoing event with worldwide apocalyptic consequences.  In point of fact, the far-reaching health repercussions and unavoidable environmental ramifications will be so profound and pervasive that this depop event will likely evolve into a full-blown ELE if left unchecked by competent authorities.*

*ELE = Extinction Level Event

Coronavirus Distraction

As always, the NWO cabal looks for ways to distract the entire planetary civilization.  Really, is there any better way to do this than with a VERY scary coronavirus pandemic?

Whether this pandemic is being completely staged, or is totally real, or is hoax blended with reality cannot yet be determined with any certainty.

At the end of the day, it may not really matter since the end result will be the same.  We the People will be deceived into believing that only global governance can solve this ‘dire matter’.  And, that only a One World Government can prevent such plagues and pandemics from ravaging humankind in the future.

In this way, the 5G roll-out will proceed forthwith.  Even though the 5G energy platform represents the worst and biggest part of the problem, it’s being slyly covered up by coronavirus hysteria.  The Chinese government is even singing the praises of the now accelerated 5G roll-out in Wuhan and other major cities as a means of battling the coronavirus! See: Why is Huawei setting up 5G base stations all over Wuhan to help fight the coronavirus?

Really, is there a more efficacious strategy for the perfidious perps to execute their diabolical plan toward total world domination?  What better way to accomplish their ultimate objective of global population lockdown via the dictates of a tyrannical technocracy?

---

KEY POINT: What this depop event really is thus far is nothing short of attempted genocide.  Hence, the $64,000 question is “Cui bono?”  There is only one tribe behind all the major genocides since 1900. See: GENOCIDE ALERT: Shooting Down Families & Journalist In Wuhan China!!! (Video)

Deep State’s Kill Switch

There’s no quicker way to collapse the Global Economic & Financial System than to purposely propagate a highly contagious virus with an alarmingly high mortality rate.  The daily headlines have already proven that business and commerce — EVERWHERE — is being radically affected by this intensifying pandemic. See: BLACK SWAN EVENT = WUHAN CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC

Deep State, not only in the United States and United Kingdom, but within every nation aligned with the Zio-Anglo-American Axis, has an overriding need to arrest the numerous national movements which are enjoying unparalleled popular and political success.  Hence, there’s no question that what we are seeing is either a threat to pull the “Kill Switch” on the Global Economic & Financial System; or that Deep State is holding this threat over the head of every nationalist leader to include President Donald Trump, Prime Minister Boris Johnson and every other head of state who is fighting globalism.

What’s indisputable is that the Wuhan coronavirus bioweapon has all the necessary elements to effectuate a truly devastating pandemic that can penetrate every sphere of life throughout the entire planetary civilization.  Clearly, it was designed this way.  Now we wait and see if the Deep State perps will actually pull that “Kill Switch” as a means of carrying out THEIR FINAL SOLUTION: Market Crash, Dollar Collapse & World War 3.

“Staged Coronavirus Pandemic”

How is this pandemic being staged, yet at the same time very real?

Here’s how:

SPECIAL NOTE: The Wuhan bio-attack appears to be
just one in a series of ongoing biological attacks being
conducted throughout mainland China.  This Zio-Anglo-
American bioterrorist operation is being stealthily
perpetrated to give the appearance that the national
epidemic started with a single case in Wuhan City, when
it’s still being surreptitiously spread in other Chinese
cities via similar modes of propagation. Because the
vectors of dissemination of this weaponized coronavirus
are mapping worldwide at rapidly expanding rates, there
are quite likely multiple methods of proliferation which
are being cunningly implemented to confuse the medical
investigators as well as to avoid detection.
(Source: A Strong Case for Premeditated Act(s) of
Bioterrorism in Wuhan City, China Carried Out
by Paid Agents of the Zio-Anglo-American Axis)

Conclusion

The preceding narrative is long and complicated, we know.  The distillation of this very real multi-decade conspiracy as well as the unending associated scandals is this: that the military deployment of 5G worldwide is the central pillar of the NWO agenda which the globalists will not allow to be put in jeopardy or slowed down by popular protests.  Hence, the globalists have conducted the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic scare as a means of misdirecting the medical investigators so that the coronavirus symptoms will instead be blamed for all 5G-induced medical ailments and health conditions. See CRITICAL DATA POINT: Wuhan established as Hubei’s first 5G demonstration zone

The worsening plight of the Chinese people has predictably created the context for yet another racially targeted vaccine to be administered first, to the Wuhan control group, and secondly, to the rest of China, and then, throughout the world-at-large.  Not only are the medical authorities closely monitoring those who have submitted themselves to past vaccination schedules, they will soon be experimenting with the new series of coronavirus vaccines that specifically address 2019-nCoV.

The other two pillars of this complex depopulation event are chemical geoengineering and industrial pollution.  Not only has Wuhan suffered from a tremendous amount of air pollution due to the extraordinary concentration of industries in the greater metro area, the local population has been subjected to various formulations of chemtrail aerosols, each being sprayed with purposeful design.

While this broad analysis of the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic psyop does not offer the detailed breakdown of the undeniable connections between the various aforementioned assaults on the citizenry, all of which mutually support the outworking of this odious black operation, those vital connections — between 5G, Coronavirus, Vaccines, Chemtrails & Pollution — ought to be obvious by now.

---

CAVEAT: Look out, folks, wherever and whenever they are rolling out 5G locally, spraying chemtrails regularly, fervently pushing vaccines right after the latest frankenvirus or exotic disease outbreak, and relentlessly fearmongering in the midst of it all.

---

Clearly, the most significant objectives of the coronavirus outbreak are to cover up the Chinese genocide and ensuing global depop, as well as to hide the pivotal link to 5G.  Therefore, it’s imperative that all truth-seekers and patriots read the following exposé; our lives and the welfare of our families and friends greatly depend upon it.  Also, circulating the many links in this analysis will serve considerably the enlightenment of the greater community around these life-threatening matters.

Author’s Note

Part I of this Wuhan coronavirus series is a vital prerequisite if one is to properly grasp the many angles on this “elaborately staged, global, false-flag, bioterror operation using real bioweapons aimed at multiple national and racial targets in order to accomplish numerous NWO objectives”.  Read: WUHAN CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC BIOENGINEERED: Who’s behind it, why now and why China? – Part 1?

Editor’s Note

For years this Alt Media platform has studied the correlation between the different influenza symptoms and Hyper-electrosensitivity syndrome—a very real medical ailment that even medical doctors are now diagnosing.  Since the 5G roll-outs in the big cities, the flu bug seasons are getting worse and longer.  Quite coincidentally, many of the flu symptoms are similar to many of those directly associated with Hyper-electrosensitivity syndrome.  Surely this is no accident of fate; rather, these two medical phenomena are mutually feeding each other and contributing to the severity of each disease process both individually and jointly. See: Exposure to 5G millimeter waves leads to ……..“flu-like symptoms”.

Update 1

During times of a deadly global pandemic, The World Health can invoke special powers that can even override national sovereignty.  In the interest of maintaining general safety and minimizing fatalities worldwide, the WHO can pull the triggers of various enforcement mechanisms which can effectively lock down the entire planet.  National governments can be compelled to take specific actions that which are dictated by the bureaucrats at the United Nations’ specialized agency concerned with world public health. See: WHO pandemic criteria for oppressive governmental actions to be implemented

Update 2

Heres’ more PROOF of British Complicity: The Pirbright Institute is the patent holder of the Coronavirus.

Update 3

Nothing demonstrates more poignantly the purposeful staging of this Wuhan pandemic coronavirus drama than the increasing number of cruise ship melodramas.  Are they all real quarantines, or are they elaborately staged hoaxes?  Or, are these horror flicks a mixture of both to lend reality.  Unfortunately, it’s impossible to know the answers to these important questions.  The directors of this worldwide reality show are proven masters of deception; however, that does not mean the perps are not deliberately introducing the coronavirus infection agents into the cruise ship environments.  Anything is possible with these criminally insane psychopaths—ABSOLUTELY ANYTHING!  Moral of the story (read: drama), don’t go on a cruise … as every single cruise-goer is nothing but a sitting duck … on the wide-open sea! See: No other MSM propaganda outlet hypes like the BBC—Are these coronavirus cruise ship dramas real or reality shows?!

Update 4

Nothing fractures society so deeply as a full-blown pandemic, particularly one that is extremely fatal.  The many mainstream media articles, which appeared at the onset of the Wuhan epidemic featuring so many photos of Wuhanese with their masks on, were transparently run that way with purposeful design.  No one does deliberate distraction, diversion and misdirection like the CIA’s Mockingbird Media.  However, in this case The Company, as the C.I.A. is known within intel circles, is using all the major MSM platforms to further divide We the People, the body politic, the electorate, families, neighborhoods, communities, towns, villages, cities, states, nations and continents across the planet.  Without question, this is one of the major aims of this psyop / black op.  A disunited world population cannot hold the power elite responsible so much that ails societies everywhere.  Just wait … and watch … and see what happens here in the good ole USA during the remainder of 2020.  Truly, this country will fracture even more, only this time it will be an “every man for himself” scenario … … … if we let the perps have their nefarious way. If ever there was a time to come together, that time is now.  We can all start by praying for the Chinese like there’s no tomorrow.

Update 6

Update 7

A PhD in Neurotoxicology has recently posted a video under the title: Is the coronavirus pandemic now unstoppable? (Video).  Many pandemic investigators medical researchers are wondering if a genie has been let out of the bottle that cannot be put back in.

Update 8

This latest report from the Taiwan News concerns an alarming development whereby the Wuhan Coronavirus Reinfection Is Hastening Fatal Heart Attacks.

Update 9

Why China? Here’s why: Is the coronavirus really a sterilization bioweapon unleashed to reverse the population explosion?  Any depop event of this enormity and gravity always has multiple motives.  Just as the Spanish flu pandemic — “the deadliest in history that infected an estimated 500 million people worldwide—about one-third of the planet’s population” — was a U.S.-manufactured influenza via vaccines and globalist-directed genocide, so, too, will the Wuhan coronavirus prove to be a similar odious experiment on humanity.  If the many bloodlines that converge on the Indian subcontinent suddenly fall prey to the coronavirus, especially an usually mutated form, then the most populous countries are being targeted.

Update 10

As always, all the usual suspects will gain enormously from this bioengineered pandemic.  This is how the perps at the pinnacle of the decision-making process rope all the key players into such a serpentine conspiratorial plot. See: CORONAVIRUS BACK STORY: A Massive Criminal Conspiracy Revolving Around Big Pharma

Update 11

The Trump administration has been waging all-out economic war against China with Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin and Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross leading the charge.  While Mnuchin has stealthily employed financial terrorism all along, did Ross just unwittingly reveal that economic sabotage was at work via the coronavirus in order to drive American factories back to the U.S.? See: STAGED CORONAVIRUS SCARE: Was this the plan all along to bring manufacturing back to the USA from China? (Video)

Update 12

Now we find out that there were upwards of 10,000 Military Personnel From 110 Nations In Wuhan, China Just Weeks Before the Coronavirus Outbreak.  Whenever there are “110 nations” participating in any joint endeavor, it is a patently globalist event, which means this manufactured pandemic is quite likely a MULTINATIONAL BLACK OP! well beyond the proven British, American and Israeli state actors.  Not only was the opening ceremony for the 2019 Military World Games held in Wuhan on October 18th, but that was followed by a U.S. men’s soccer match at a Wuhan, China sports venue—ground zero of the virus original outbreak.  This international event was probably selected — and specifically timed right at the beginning of China’s annual flu season — because it provided amply opportunity for co-conspirators from around the world community of nations to do the necessary dirty work in case anyone got caught.  The US, UK and Israel would then enjoy plausible deniability in the absence of their fingerprints being ‘found’ at the crime scenes.  And, yes, there are certainly multiple crime scenes which is why it exploded so quickly.

Update 13

It’s no coincidence that the perpetrators selected the Chinese Year of the Rat to launch this biological attack. Doing so quickly fed the collective imagination (after being intentionally barraged by so many MSM propaganda reports) of how the new plague could have started with bats and snakes and rats, etc.

Update 14

Okay, now here’s a deep dive into the very guts of this extremely sophisticated psyop / black op.  The following instructive excerpt goes a long way to revealing how the Alt Media is often used to seed disinfo, misinfo and false info that will then spread like wildfire on the Internet (via social media, of course).

SOTN Editor’s Note: The following transparent disinfo piece ends by stating there are only two possibilities regarding the true origin of the fastidiously bioengineered Wuhan coronavirus which is now ravaging the planet as a pandemic.  Really, only 2 scenarios?!

How about the many scientific proofs and other examples of hard evidence which point to “an elaborately staged global, false-flag, bioterror operation using real bioweapons aimed at multiples targets and with numerous NWO objectives”.  The following series of 3 exposés clearly delineates this highly organized and rapidly unfolding bioterrorist operation.

Now, try to reconcile the ridiculous narrative ‘professionally presented’ below with the preceding three.  We’re not saying there are not a bunch of facts conveniently embedded in the following post; although, we do wonder how any author/investigator would gain access to any real facts associated with this tightly controlled, classic C.I.A. black op, which are all well known for being highly compartmentalized operations where all sensitive info/data is only ever provided to the co-conspirators on a strictly need-to-know basis.

Perhaps the dead giveaway of this CIA-directed Mockingbird Media psyop can be found in the header of the originating website.  A screenshot of that header shows the very telling blog title: Harvard to the Big House.  They don’t even try to hide it anymore… just like the coronavirus was really named after the British Crown which created it (where corona = crown).

Update 15

What follows is yet another glaring example of a globalist shill using a large and powerful Alt Media platform to put out naked NWO propaganda.  Advance to the closing minutes of the video to hear Laurie Garrett’s passionate defense of globalism.  Also, lots of supposed facts mixed with obvious fiction about the coronavirus are spewed with extraordinary Tavistock-induced confidence.

Here’s an excellent example of how the Alt Media is being used to disseminate disinfo about the coronavirus BY A HARDCORE GLOBALIST! (Video)

Update 16

Here’s yet another example of predictive programming subtly inserted into a popular alt-video production. See: Was the Wuhan coronavirus predicted by the cult classic—I, Pet Goat II? (Video)

Update 17

Hollywood has also produced its fair share of disaster movies some of which may contain predictive programming regarding this particular pandemic. See: CONTAGION: The Ultimate “Divide & Conquer” Bioweapon (Trailer)

Update 18

There may be no quicker way to transition a whole nation to a cashless society than to “quarantine cash and destroy ‘dirty money’”  than a highly fatal epidemic.  When it becomes a full-blown pandemic, the NWO globalists will push for the entire planetary civilization to go cashless.  One of the central pillars of the NWO agenda is a One World [DIGITAL] Currency.  This is why TPTB have conducted so many crypto-currency launches (and scams) over the past several years to get folks used to their One World Currency roll-out. See: CASHLESS SOCIETY ALERT: Chinese Banks Are Quarantining Cash, Destroying ‘Dirty’ Money

Update 19

The economic and financial repercussions of this pandemic will be quite profound and pervasive.  TPTB certainly had a strong incentive to depop both the Baby Boomers and Beat Generation.  Nations around the world are simply not equipped to deal with the unprecedented massive bulge of BB retirees who will need government services and financial assistance of every sort and kind.  Most significantly, Social Security and similar government payout programs will soon go broke, just as pension plans are now contracting everywhere some even going bust.  The most effective way to stop the payouts is to eliminate the aging recipients. See: Were the elderly around the world targeted with the coronavirus bioweapon? (Infographic)

Update 20

As a geopolitical weapon, it’s now clear that China’s was purposefully incapacitated on the world stage.  Not only has Beijing’s extremely ambitious Belt and Road Initiative been thwarted by the coronavirus scare, a number of China’s emerging client states in Asia and Africa have been deeply affected.  Even traditional trading partners are forced to take severe precautionary measures while diplomatic relationships are being adversely impacted.  Of course, this was all planned out with purposeful design by China’s enemies in order to greatly curtail its expanding influence throughout the world community of nations.  Countries such as Iran will no longer be supported as they were by Beijing now that China is totally absorbed with their coronavirus epidemic and national lockdown. See: The HUGE Geopolitical Consequences of the China’s Coronavirus Outbreak

Update 21

Perhaps the greatest economic impact on China is the extent to which so many supply chains have been interrupted.  This new state of global affairs will compel many companies to bring all part-manufacturing operations back to their home country thereby hitting China’s GDP in a HUGE way.  Truly, this single act of bioterrorism by the Zio-Anglo-American Axis was the game-changer the perps intended it to be.

March of Madness Corona Virus Scaremongering Forcing Us Up against the wall, laying us bare to all manner of other dangers.

March 18th 2020

I am talking about the Coronavirus and the lock down situation.  This is quite serious.  The logical outcome is mass unemployment, even more desease, accicidents and social collapese, hence 10,000 troops on standby. 

Why cause such panic if there is not a hidden agenda?  Conspiracy theorists are always ridiculed because most people are like lemmings.  The collapse of capitalism has been predicted since the 1970s. The technology is there to force it. 

The global elite have their rivalries and the masses are atomised.  It is not the logic of war to create mass panic.  Governments are always secretive about these things, hence the Assange Manning situation.  So why this ?  There has to be a hidden agenda.

The authorities know too much about this virus, what it is going to do and how long it will last, why it will keep coming back, requiring on going Draconian powers- for our safety (sic }Polly Sexual

Right-wing conspiracy theorists see coronavirus as a plot against Trump

The president’s supporters believe the ‘deep state’ is hyping the disease to damage the U.S. economy.

Conspiracy theorists online believe that concerns over the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak are being overblown as part of a secret plot to damage President Donald Trump.

The debacle began this week when the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warned that “disruption to everyday life may be severe” if the disease were to rapidly spread throughout the country.

The announcement and previous updates from the CDC, however, have enraged Trump, according to the Washington Post. Growing public concern over the coronavirus has negatively affected the stock market, leading Trump to accuse outlets such as CNN and MSNBC of purposely exaggerating the issue in order to damage the economy.

The two outlets, Trump claimed in a tweet on Wednesday, “are doing everything possible” to panic markets. The president’s tweet, which misspells coronavirus, went on to also blame Democratic lawmakers.

Low Ratings Fake News MSDNC (Comcast) & @CNN are doing everything possible to make the Caronavirus look as bad as possible, including panicking markets, if possible. Likewise their incompetent Do Nothing Democrat comrades are all talk, no action. USA in great shape! @CDCgov…..— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 26, 2020

Conspiracy theorists and defenders of the president have spread the same talking points as well, increasingly portraying the disease as a tool of the “deep state” to politically hurt Trump.

Rush Limbaugh, the controversial radio host who recently received the Medal of Freedom from Trump, took aim at Dr. Nancy Messonnier on Wednesday over the fact that Messonnier, who is a CDC official, is also the sister of former U.S. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

Limbaugh went on to insinuate that Dr. Messonnier’s warning could have been influenced by her relation to Rosenstein, who was involved in the special counsel investigation into alleged ties between the president’s 2016 campaign and Russia.

“So you’ve got here the CDC urging Americans to prepare for a coronavirus virus outbreak…” Limbaugh began. “Okay. This person running this agency, who does she donate to? Well, her brother is Rod Rosenstein.”

Limbaugh added that listeners should “do what you want with” the information.

“It may mean nothing. Might…Who knows?” Limbaugh said. “It’s just in that town, I’m telling you, everything is incestuous. Most of that town is establishment oriented or rooted, which means they despise Trump.”

Other figures such as YouTube prankster turned conservative talking head Joey “Salads” Saladino claimed Democrats would “take Trump out of office” by exaggerating the disease’s danger.

“I don’t think Coronavirus will kill us all, but I know the Democrats will use this scare to cause panic and crash the markets to take Trump out of office,” Saladino said. “Dems have already admitted it!”

I don’t think Coronavirus will kill us all, but I know the Democrats will use this scare to cause panic and crash the markets to take Trump out of office. Dems have already admitted it!

I would rather be safe than sorry by preparing food for a few weeks. pic.twitter.com/v9yjvRLUdL— Joey Saladino (@JoeySalads) February 26, 2020

Mark Dice, a prominent conspiracy theorist and Trump adherent, also claimed that liberals would take advantage of the deadly outbreak in their efforts to topple Trump.

“Liberals are now hoping the #COVIDー19 coronavirus causes a global pandemic and crashes the stock market in order to point the finger at Trump for a ‘bad economy,’” Dice said. “These people are sick (no pun intended).”

Liberals are now hoping the #COVIDー19 coronavirus causes a global pandemic and crashes the stock market in order to point the finger at Trump for a “bad economy.”

These people are sick (no pun intended).— Mark Dice (@MarkDice) February 26, 2020

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Ut.) was also tied into the deep state conspiracy for suggesting that the Trump administration was unprepared for a coronavirus outbreak.

“Romney is screaming ‘pandemic’ to hurt the Trump economy by affecting the stock market, but we see what you are doing deep state snake Romney,” said Dawn Michael, a popular pro-Trump Twitter user, and advocate of the QAnon conspiracy.

While the disease has been contained so far in the U.S., health officials believe that it’s only a matter of time before the coronavirus spreads.

“Current global circumstances suggest it’s likely this virus will cause a pandemic,” said Anne Schuchat, principal deputy director of the CDC.

Current statistics show that there have been 59 confirmed cases in the U.S., with a global total of 81,322. At least 2,770 people have lost their lives as a result of the disease.

An Appalling Situation years in the Making due to global elite greed, contempt for and vile exploitation of mass ignorance and stupidity. Posted March 16th 2020

The following extracts are the tip of the iceberg. More people will die as a result of the panic measures than the virus. The most at risk have underlying health conditions because the Brits are by and large a poorly educated ignorant poorly lot, with many suffering from underlying conditions. But they will enjoy the police state measures, making them feel ‘safe’ (sic ) .

Over the next few months, the rich will get richer, e.g just think of all the mortgae re possessions the bailed out banks and building soceities will benefit from. It will be open season for asset strippers and official receivers.

There will be more measures to control free speech, clamping down on social media and more prosecutions as we are on ‘a war footing ‘ now.

This is what you get from elite driven money grabbing globalisation, in the name of diversity, tolerance and multi culture. There are 10,000 troops on stand by through fears of civil breakdown. It is a deliberately engineered crisis, which is why expert lackeys are warning of worse to come, rather than playing down panic. Corbyn and Labour are very in to this, as a great opportunity to defer and stop trade talks with the EU.

This is their moment because their mass so called diverse society, with its ‘wonderful NHS’ and unlimited immigration can’t cope. This is why the elite media keep telling you we have a democracy when we clearly do not have one. Europe is in turmoil after years of ludicrous open borders, so inspired by the dominant great British rule makers and fake upper middle class liberals. Robert Cook

Energy companies have started preparing emergency plans to cope with coronavirus disruption, including the possibility of operating with only a fifth of their usual staff numbers.

The UK’s regional energy networks held talks last week with government ministers, senior officials and the energy regulator over plans to maintain the energy system’s power lines and gas pipes if 80% of their staff are unable to work.

The Guardian understands that energy network bosses have agreed to postpone all nonessential maintenance on the UK’s critical energy infrastructure after the government warned that up to four-fifths of Britons could be infected by the Covid-19 virus over the coming months.

UK phone networks are suffering from severe outages, with customers from EE, O2, Vodafone, Three and GiffGaff all reporting issues.

The reason for the networks going down is not immediately apparent.

It comes as millions of workers across the country are staying home to work, following advice from the government to avoid all unnecessary travel in order to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus.

O2 acknowledged that it is experiencing problems with its service and said it is investigating.

“Our technical teams are investigating,” the firm said in a statement. “We apologise for any inconvenience.”

Major power outage causes chaos across England and Wales

Some customers complained that they were unable to send or receive text messages, while others said they were having difficulties getting online.

Customers throughout the UK are affected, according to the website DownDetector, with London and North-West England the worst affected regions.​

The issue could stem from the amount of people using their phones and devices for remote working purposes, causing the networks to overload.

Online working platform Microsoft Teams suffered a similar outage on Monday morning as a result of a huge influx of new users.

Syrians in Idlib fear end nearing

By SARAH EL DEEB, Associated Press – Associated Press – 16 March 2020

IDLIB, Syria (AP) — “There’s nothing now. Nothing at all,” said Yasser Aboud, as he looked away from his family’s few remaining belongings, dumped on the floor of the bare single room that would now be their home in the northwest Syrian city of Idlib.

It was a far cry from the house, the farm, and the job that he, his wife and three children left behind two months ago, fleeing their hometown just 15 kilometers (9 miles) down the road as it was overwhelmed by Syrian government troops in furious fighting. He managed to salvage some jerrycans of olives, a few rugs, cushions and pots and pans, and his motorbike. They sold their washing machine and some of his wife’s gold.
Now they were moving into an apartment in a district full of buildings shattered by government bombardment. He and his wife and three kids will share the place with over a dozen relatives. They’re jobless in a city teeming with thousands of others displaced like them — and they are hardly out of danger.

The city of Idlib is the last urban area still under opposition control in Syria, located in a shrinking rebel enclave in the northwestern province of the same name. Syria’s civil war, which entered its 10th year on Monday, has shrunk in geographical scope — focusing on this tiny corner of the country — but the misery wreaked by the conflict has not diminished.
A bloodier and possibly more disastrous phase is on the horizon if government forces, backed by Russia and Iran, go ahead with threats to recapture Idlib city and the remaining rebel-held north, crammed with over 3 million people.

Over the past three months, government troops recaptured nearly half of Idlib province and surrounding areas, forcing nearly 1 million to flee their homes, around half of them into other parts of the province, including Idlib city. During the advances, government forces neared Idlib city outskirts, bombing parts and sending thousands fleeing north.
“I feel everything has ended, and this is a final migration, not displacement,” Aboud said. “I feel let down by the world.”
The government offensive has been paused by a Russian-Turkish cease-fire deal, leaving residents of the rebel enclave, including Idlib city, in a state of terrifying limbo.

They are skeptical that the cease-fire will last and well aware they are likely the next target of the government’s assault.
Though government airstrikes have hit it regularly, the city has suffered far less violence than other places since 2015, when rebels seized it from government forces. Over the years since, multiple waves of displaced people flowed in, from other opposition areas further south retaken by the government, and now more from other parts of Idlib.
The Associated Press traveled to Idlib on a trip arranged through Turkish authorities. Its team, like other journalists who have been into the enclave recently, was escorted by members of a media outfit linked to Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, an al-Qaida-linked group that dominates the area.
Driving into Idlib city, the AP team witnessed the scale of the displacement. Dozens of tents lined the main road into the city. Other families were crammed into bombed out buildings, the city’s stadium or unfinished construction sites. Shops have sprung around the enclave bearing the names of different cities and towns in Syria — a testimony and a token to the homes they left behind.

The city has been shaped by the different layers of conflict. Many city streets are clean and well maintained by the opposition administration. But on other streets, buildings are in ruins — some wrecked in previous fighting, others bombed during the most recent offensive. Residents can point out buildings and remember the date they were hit. The city gets only two hours of electricity a day, and Aboud said he chose to buy bread over more power from generators.

If President Bashar Assad resumes the government offensive, everything here will be vulnerable.
In past advances, the government’s tactic was to bombard urban areas relentlessly — including with Russian warplanes — flattening residential areas and pummeling the population into submission. Residents, opposition activists and fighters were offered the choice either to stay under “reconciliation” deals or be evacuated to the rebel-held north.

In Idlib, the residents overwhelmingly fear living under government rule but have nowhere else to run, with Turkey refusing to open its border wall to more refugees.
Aboud said it was out of the question for him to accept “reconciliation.” Holding his 2-year-old twins by the hand, he said his family fled his hometown of Saraqeb “not fearing death but fearing to be under the rule of Assad again.”
He took part in the early anti-government protests in 2011 and was detained for it; two of his brothers were shot and killed by government forces in 2012; his mother-in-law was killed in an airstrike the same year.
If Assad captures Idlib, “we will run to Turkey, we will sleep under the (border) wall,” Aboud said. “The most crucial thing is that we won’t enter territories” held by the government.

Turkey has deployed thousands of troops in the enclave, operating alongside its Syrian opposition allies. That has diminished the lock on power that the al-Qaida-linked Hayat Tahrir al-Sham has held over Idlib since it drove out rival factions in past fighting.
Mustafa Berro, a commander of a Turkey-backed rebel faction from Aleppo that has now sent forces to Idlib, said his fighters have not lost faith.
“We are worse off than in 2014” — when rebels held nearly half of Syria — “but we are better off than 2011” when they had no territory to control, he said. “We still have an area to work from and operate in.”
The massive displacement of past weeks has strained international aid deliveries into the enclave, where 1.5 million receive food assistance. In January alone, 1,227 trucks were sent across the border from Turkey, the largest number in seven years of cross-border operations, said U.N. Assistant Secretary of State Kevin Kennedy, who is also regional humanitarian coordinator for Syria.

The cease-fire has allowed deliveries to increase, but Kennedy warned that resumption of hostilities in the densely populated urban area would mean more displacement. “The needs are so enormous, the gaps will always be there unfortunately,” he said.
At Idlib’s Central Hospital, Abdullah AlHassan lay in a bed in excruciating pain. He lost both legs last week when he went back to his village, Afes, to inspect the home he had fled and stepped on a mine planted in the house. His hand was also bandaged and his face full of cuts.
Afes, on the strategic highway that was the government’s first main objective in its offensive, was all but destroyed and totally deserted, he said. His house had been looted, even metal wires stripped out. The carnage will be similar if the offensive hits Idlib city, he said.
“No one can stay once such an attack comes. Everyone must leave. If anyone stays, (government forces) won’t spare him.”
In the center of Idlib city, nearly 90 displaced families found refuge in a deserted prison. They fled here from Maaret al-Numan, a key town in Idlib that fell to government forces in January.
“We couldn’t afford rent. We opened the door of the prison and we came in,” said Hossam Ajjaj, member of the Turkish-backed Syrian National Army who was among the first to move in with his family.
Families, men and women, live on top of each other in the prison rooms, divided into sleeping, cooking and bathing areas by hung sheets and blankets, giving a deceptive sense of privacy.

Fida, 44, and her 20-year old daughter Heba share the same room with 11 other relatives. On the day the AP visited, they were stuffing zucchini and eggplants in their living area, where they also cook and bathe — taking turns keeping watch to ensure no one intrudes. A younger brother of Heba who lost a foot in a war injury slept in the room behind the “kitchen.” A baby with Down syndrome slept in his cradle next to the women cooking.
They had long resisted fleeing their home, just outside Maaret al-Numan. Early in the war, when Heba was 12, they left for six months, but returned. Earlier in 2019, they were displaced for 20 days but again went back. When the Syrian army advanced on Maaret al-Numan in December, they moved into caves just next to their home, hoping it was again just temporary.
When an airstrike hit just outside the cave, they knew they had to leave.

They gave up their large farm growing olives and grapes to live crammed in a prison.
“We don’t like the word displacement,” Fida said. Her daughter added: “It’s shameful. We like our hometown.”
Heba said she can’t forget a single day since 2011 — every day marked by violence and loss. She worried about her children, a 3- and a 2-year-old, and can’t let them go outside because of airstrikes.
“We sleep in fear,” she said. “I don’t imagine there will be a future. I don’t imagine this will be settled with us alive.”

Editorial Comment The Western elite powers, notably U.S.A . Britan and France stoked up the regime change war in Syria. They have killed civilians, portrayed the White Helmets as ambulance heroes and deny that the Islamo Facists are n control of Idlib.

Every time Assad’s legitimate forces make gains, these western oil grabbers, arms merchants and money grabbing fake democrats do something like crazy bombing or faking a chemcial attack. The RAF have dropped 4000 bombs and killed civilians.

That is just the official figure. As we know from the Assange.Manning case, Britain and U,S will stoop to anything to hide or distort the truth – punishing whistle blowers with self righteoous impunity. Our so called democracies don’t give a damn about Humna Rights. Robert Cook

Cock Up Italian Style March 15th 2020

Italian’s who have been forced into lockdown because of the outbreak of the coronavirus will be able to access Pornhub’s premium content for free while they are locked up inside. 

The adult streaming site has made all of its content on its premium subscription service, free in Italy for the month of March, with the site also announcing that they will be donating money to Italy as it attempts to overcome pandemic.

Meanwhile back in Britain, Police will be able to detain infected people and schools could be forced to stay open under a package of powers being announced next week to tackle the coronavirus pandemic.

Emergency laws to help to limit the spread of the virus will be introduced after the number of people infected in Britain rose by 200 in 24 hours to 798. The measures, seen by The Times, will also let councils lower standards in care homes to deal with staff shortages

The Churchill or the Church ill and die factor ? Posted March 13th 2020

My colleague has already written about the Corona Panic.  I first heard the word Corona as a drink advertised when I was a child.  Then it popped up in O Level Physics.  Third time it is this.  Oh my , we are all going to die.

More people are killed and maimed on British roads every week than so far killed by this virus.  Same is true of flu.  So one has to wonder why the deliberate panic scaremongering.

I just popped down to Buckingham for some more make up and nail gel, needed for a date tonight, with a member of the ethnic minorities because I am really diverse in such matters.  Even those isles were pretty empty.

Gosh, good job my date is not Chinese.  Don’t think it has reached the Somalians of Milton Keynes yet.  My giant Somalian friend told me he was clean- not in his appetites I guess, but that is life as we know it Scottie.  

Anyway, back to Corona.  It is interesting that we are told this will be a regular yearly challenge.  So, why have the Chinese sorted it so fast?  Why does that success clash with Trump’s war on Chinese industry, which Anglo America (Brmerica ) have fed off for years -with no concerned for this nonsense of human rights, all so appealing to sexless idiot feminists and manginas ?

Corona is going to mean more cash help for banks, and more cash strapped working people, along with bleeding heart lefties calling for more so called economic migrants regardless of importing virus risks. The power are all to eager to panic is into self destruction.  There will be no suspending mortgage or other debt payments.  

People who fall behind on mortgage payments risk losing their properties to the rich elite who are the true owner.  Who cares, in Britain hypocrisy is the norm, along with exploiting the ignorant and a morality based on sexual controls that do not apply to the elite, as we see with the Prince Andrew case.

New Women Posted March 10th 2020

New Women

Women’s Militant Groups don’t talk about equal opportunities any more .  They talk about empowering women.  Power is a zero sum.  Most of it is in the hands of the wealthy because money is where the real power is.  Most of the wealth, including land is in the hands of no more than 3 % worldwide.

This means that the power play and transfer between the sexes is happening amongst the lower orders, orchestrated by the rich elite- who operate on the same old concept ‘Divide and Rule.’  Men are being deprived of power and status.  

Now wonder they need Viagra.  Any form of  unwanted sexual contact is defined as rape, with women’s allegations always taken as truth.  The reality is, men are learning to fear women.

There is thus a great deal of fuss, hysteria and conflict over the large numbers of men wanting to change sex.  This inclination is happening at younger and younger ages.

Girls are told that they need more inspirational role models.  They don’t go to university any more, they go to ‘uni ‘ where women’s studies are all the rage.  They don’t learn how women gave men white feathers in two world wars for not being in uniform.  The double standards are amazing.

Men are demoralised, their old qualities are ridiculed and increasingly father’s are kicked out for failing to please their wives – often stigmatised and bankrupted into a life on the streets.

Of course militant feminists like Oxford Don Serena Todd don’t like this.  She was outraged to be banned from speaking at a recent transgender event, citing laws of free speech which her sort have done their best to oppose when it suits them.

Todd is concerned that men will change their gender status, growing breasts. Inverting penises, losing scrotums, losing beards, raising voice pitch and losing muscle mass just so they can disguise themselves to enter women’s toilets,rest rooms and refuges.  

Then in these places, these new women who have risked so much, dressing and living as women for years, will be able to commit acts of violence and rape/  Just think Ms Todd is so brilliant she is professor of English at Oxford University.

What the likes of Todd really do not like is that most transsexual, like me, aspire to look and behave as women used to do when we were young and mothers put the kids first= not their egos.  We are the new women. The noun women is not simply about genitals and breasts.  It is about behaviour.  

One hopes that feminists will soon dry up when the evidence of their pseudo academic rantings finally comes to an unbearable crisis point.  There should be enough evidence now, but the media is riddled with these monsters, along with the myth that sis women never do anything bad or violent unless hypnotised by or responding to nasty men.  

These nasty old feminist have been corrupting young women, this destroying men, for years.  Trouble is all the daddies and new breeds of men haven’t the guts to fight.  Reality is, one cannot be a real ( forget sis ) woman without real men.  

If men can’t become  women, then women should not be allowed to dress as men for the male role in lesbian relationships.  It is a matter of balance.  Sadly the nightmare goes on, with so much injustice, women draining all the power from men and abusing it. As for Muslims in this country campaigning to ban transgender teaching in British schools, how wpould they feel if I campaigned to ban teaching Islam in our schools ?

Myths & Illusions Posted March 9th 2020

Myths & Illusions

In his celebrated work ‘The Victorians’ historian A.N Wilson casts doubt on Queen Victoria actually being the offspring of the Duke of Kent. And therefore not the legitimate heir to ‘old dropsical stupid’ ( A.N Wilson’s words ) and raving ‘drunk William IV’s throne.’  

All of William IV’s children were illegitimate, hence Victoria who was most likely the product of her mother’s secretary Conroy, with whom she had a long affair.  Victoria spoke no English until she was three, her apparent father spoke none because they were all German.

But such is the power of the Royal mythology compounded by the stupidity of the British masses, the Royal family are still admired.  Like any old religion, it is an absurdity to anyone with a rational mind. Princess Diana did so much to undermine Royal credibility.  Now her youngest son has taken matter further, with publicity mad self righteous campaigning wife Meghan leading him a long.  

This is an outrage.  It should mark the end of the Royal Charade.  Sadly Brits have little to cling to for a sense of identity, so the monarchy is not dead yet.  Meghan was supposed to make the royal family look as hideously diverse as the rest of society.  

What she has achieved is to make it look just as hideously dysfunctional and ridiculous as the rest of so called Great Britain. The absurd panic over the Corona Virus says it all.  I have just come back from Bletchley Tesco, where the only stuff not flying off the shelves is the ‘Mother’s Day ‘ garbage that recently replaced all the other shocking pink rubbish on sale for Valentine’s Day.  

There is a ludicrous campaign to put women on pedestals, as people whose only faults are caused by what men do to them  These days they are supposed to put work first and look for ‘inspirational role models’ after women’s studies at ‘Uni’.  In the real world, more and more women are committing suicide, drinking, smoking and dying alone because they are being trained like dogs to chase illusions and myths.

E.M ( Emasculating Men )Powering Women and International Woman’s Day Posted March 8th 2020

Markle is in a competition to take all the Royal credit for an abuse campaign which should have no voice in what is allegedly a constitutional monarch. Prince Charles was hounded by the media for damning Thatcher greed- which is why they hounded him over his love of Camilla- his first and only love.

Now the rules have marveloulsy changed because feminists control Labour who control the Tory Government using liberal left upper middle class ‘Me Too;’ merchants. Both Royal women are cynically exaggerating female domestic abuse for self aggrandisement, not because they care – if they did care they would join forces in breaking the Royal code of saying nothing, just waving, opening and reading government speeches.

These headlines raise interesting questions about domestic life in Britain. A police officer- a mere front line PC !- told me that 80% of his callouts are domestics.

On this site you can read a U.S study, led by females, concluding that women cause and escalate teh majority of domestic conflict. In my view, feminism has much to do with this nasty environment, along with the decline of traditional male role models needed by children of both genders. Traditional male industries have also gone.

People don’t like Meghan because she is rude, patronising, hectoring, bullying and all round unpleasant. With all her wealth she has no idea of the reality of working women’s lives- women like my poor dead exploited mother.History is being rewritten to make it look as if women fought all the wars, also doing all the other work. Now they have a right to be on top. Well it will be very hard to find peace as a woman if you have to spend all your time fighting men for power and status.

The upper middle classwomen who suspended their fight for votes in 1914, handing out white featehrs to young men who feared life in the front line of war, have been airbrushed. Now it is they that fought the war. It was certainly they who pushed for a punitive German peace settement guranteeing the next round of butchery and holocaust, ending up with U.S dropping two nuclear bombs

Meghan Markle, as a lapsed Royal has no right to make public speeches telling men to appreciate their women. It is time for a counter attack, pointing out that working men -not bourgeise manginas need appreciating for all the hard and dnagerous work they have done. Ss for women like my late mother, daughter of a drudge who died giving her birth, Mouthy divisive parasites like Markle have no clue. Just because she is half black and daughter of a rich daddy is no excuse. Traditionally Royals kept their mouths shut or faced the consequences. Robert Cook

appears to be a woman with a grudge about white men, because of her daddy issues. There is no doubt

Back in Portsmouth What the Dickens is Going On ? Posted March 5th 2020

Today I returned to Portsmouth with some website colleagues, researching my new book. The weather was as always horribly cold and damp.

My visit would not have been complete without visiting the many City Centre Charity shops, where we snapped up some bargains, including a legislative history of the City Council 1960-74. I will be tucking into that tomorrow.

For me a trip to Waterstones is always a must. Portsmouth has one of the best branches with an excellent coffee shop. The chain’s founder started book selling life with W.H Smith, using his £6000 redundancy money to set it up. Human endeavour is a marvelous thing when all works out.

Obviously I popped into Portsmouth’s local W H Smith, where I did abook signing 17 years ago. Time does fly if you are not in jail ! ( A little joke for my police followers who have been trying to jail me for the past 12 years for exposing their lies and corruption.) What an acheivement for me, once upon a time one of Portsmouth’s finest tax officials !

While in Smith’s I took some time looking at the latest magazines. The Psychology Today mag exhorted women to be more confident, to become the best boss ever- that’s what it said on the front page.

Another magazine had the cover story, Why do women murder, are they driven to it ? Of course. the article says yes. Women don’t naturally do bad things. Robert Cook

Dad’s Barmy by Polly Sexual Posted March 4th 2020

This country is superficially absurd, maybe it really is absurd.  Hard to tell.  It is riddled with contradictions.  Only one Britain has died so far from the Corona Virus, on a luxury cruise ship out near Japan.  He was 80 and wealthy.

But there is talk of shutting down cities and halting murder inquiries in Britain.  My generation of university folk were obvious incompetents when I mingled with them back in the late 60s and early 70s. Maybe this ruling elite have a dastardly plan, but they will surely fail.

Meanwhile, the feminists are on the Caroline Flack case.  Obviously she was right to hit her boyfriend over the head with a heavy lamp while he was asleep.  There will be new laws to protect women from the consequences of their own domestic violence, because they are innocent through residing in a natural state of benign womanhood.

They only do apparently wrong things when naturally stupid inferior men interrupt this enchanted state of mind with their foolishess which really does need dealing with – as a national priority and emergency. Boris take note and tell COBRA.

The same rules apply to Duchess Meghan of the absurdly anachronistic Windsor  ( aka Hohnenzollern Saxe-Coburg Goethe ) family.  

Her rejection by the normal obsequious British fawning masses has nothing to do with this woman’s arrogant rudeness and shameful exploitation of her colour and womanhood. Her and Harry H – did he ever have a paternity test- are the victims here.  Poor devils.  Let’s hope they get justice one day.

Where and what is the end ? Posted March 3rd 2020

Laurie Lee’s enchanting early twentieth century biography of life growing up in the Cotswold Village of Slad began my romance with Cotswold History.  It had been a joy to write Francis Friths ‘Cotswold’s in Living Memory’ back in the early 2000s.  

I looked hard at the old images they sent me, looking into a world of Enid Blyton like characters, homes and workplaces, winding lanes and woodlands. I read about the hard history behind the romance, the geography under the agriculture so dependent on sheep, wool and mills.  The pictures were black and white, but I felt the warmth of the sunshine through those old photos.

Before my vile ex brother in law used his senior police influence to help his sister extract money during my divorce, I had left teaching to enjoy modest writing success. His lies destroyed my life, career, health and professional reputation.  That of course, is an ongoing story

In this respect I must – and am lucky to do so- earn my living as a truck driver.  Even here the police have used their influence to have me labelled as suffering from a paranoid personality disorder, trying desperately to cover up their vicious lies with expensive taxpayer funded  court actions over the last 12 years, losing the last two cases.

Hence their latest unfounded mental health attack, on me, because I am making serious criminal allegations against two nasty criminally led police forces.  They have done their best to get me sacked from my work with ongoing malicious criminal lies against me and my eldest son.  The British police are so awfully vile and corrupt.  

If our traumatised soldiers made half the fuss about being heroes  as the pathetic overpaid arrogant cosseted police do, they would be laughed at.  My late father was a regular soldier, wounded in war, then a military policeman, truck driver, neglected by his posh doctor and so died aged 41. Mother fought hard and honestly to look after us, which is one of many reasons why I loathe upper middle class feminists.

That is a big part of my reality, not fake hero cops like my ex brother in law.  I was 11 years old when I heard my father’s death rattle and long goodbye in October 1962- another reason why wingeing bourgeoisie feminists piss me off.

However, I have learned from this, along with all my other hardships, tragedies and struggles. So at least I get to travel a lot, around what Churchill called ‘This Sceptred Isle.’

So, last Monday, I made my first run of the week into Gloucestershire , Herefordshire and Cheltenham.  On my way back to the depot, I pulled into a lay by way off the A40, for my final break.  I chose to stop there because I had seen travellers , old trucks, woodcarvings and custom trailers parked up.

There I met up with my old friend Jacob Spore.  He has been a traveller since as long as he can remember, this time without his dad ‘Mushroom Spore’ who is also travelling alone down in Devon.

I asked Jacob if the cold bothered him. ‘No. I have a good stove in here.’  Looking at his latest home on wheels, I asked him where he built it.  ‘In lay bys.’

Amazing, so I asked what he did for food and water.  He collected it from springs and lived off the land.  His transport was an old council LDV ‘Sherpa’ water tanker.  Tanks full of spring water were lined up in front of his home on wheels.  

He told me he could not read, due to severe dyslexia. ‘By the time I have struggled to the second page of the book, I have forgotten what was on the first page.  I wasn’t good at anything at school.  But I love this life.  I get all the work done, collect the water, cut the wood.  Don’t know anything different.’ he told me. I didn’t ask if he worried about his carbon footprint and Boris Johnson’s plan to ban log burning by 2023. Forget China and Germany’s coal fire power stations and ban men like Jacob. Pompous self important British elitists must set an example, using the poor and vulnerable for their plaudits.

A few yards away was his friend Darren’s old army Bedford truck, the back section now a comfortable home.  The smell of wood burning, the leafless trees and shivering cold weather was somehow romantic as I moved to bid Jacob farewell for now, heading back to my truck and back on the lonely road to my shift’s end, if I am lucky to get there.  Where is the end, in the end ?

A Night Out In Police State Britain Posted March 1st 2020

Friday Night and Saturday Morning, Club Night  Posted March 1^st 2020

I had nearly reached my depot on an industrial estate in Bicester, yesterday morning ,when I saw a person on the other side of the road waving an arm out at me.  It was very dark, the lighting poor. As I passed by, I saw the person was a slim blonde female wearing dark clothing.

With little time to spare, and not wishing to put myself at risk, I drove on by toward the Launton roundabout.  Then, troubled by what might be the matter, I turned back.

Pulling up alongside the staggering figure ( I am referring to her gait, not her looks ), I opened the passenger window.  On asking if there was a problem, the thirty something lady replied in a Polish accent : ‘Take me home to Launton’  

Launton is about two miles from where we were, so I had to explain I had no time to do this.  Then I noticed her left cheek was grazed and bleeding. I asked if she had been attacked.  She replied : ‘ No, I am very drunk.  It’s OK.’  This lady then stumbled off, wearing very high heeled boots hindering her progress.

Friday night and Saturday morning is night club time in Bicester.  One has to wonder how she had got so far from the centre without being seen by the police, but it was rather cold for them to be out and about.

Later, as I rumbled away west in my truck, I wondered if I had done the right thing leaving her to fate.  The fact she was ready to get into a strange man’s car said much for her incapacity.  Had she been a young drunk man would I have even dared to stop to inquire about his well being or offer help?  Of course not.  Nor should I have done so for a woman.  

Firstly it could have been a trap.  Secondly, having anything to do with a drunken or sober woman these days is dangerous in politically correct Britain, where a woman’s word is always taken as the truth.  Thirdly, if women insist on being treated equally then I was right to ignore her, as I would have ignored a drunken man in Police State Britain.

So, I relaxed, all guilt passed. Onwards I rumbled, for more of my kind of night out, gazing at the wintry road, listening to the beat of the wind against my high sided vehicle, headlights cutting through the cold darkness, alone with my thoughts, alone in a world where people are forgetting- if they ever knew- about caring for what should matter more than zero carbon emissions.

It should be caring for each other, not the fake religious kind of pretending. God is the illusion, the excuse for all the carnage, greed and selfishness. Never mind, people love illusions and offcial lies. That’s why we have and always will have terrible wars. The war between the sexes is fundamental to all of this. Robert Cook

” Rule Britannia, Britannia Digs The Graves

Britain s always always will be slaves. ”

Posted February 26^th 2020

I recall the rather smug patronising comedian and mimic Rory Bremner saying that when Tony Blair and New Labour got to power there would be no more material for satire.  By implication he was suggesting we had reached an age of perfection in political leadership.

Last Monday in the House of Commons, a Labour feminist MP dominated debate called for British led intervention in Syria to save the women and children from the murderous Assad regime.  

Earlier that day I head an obviously hand wringing trio of BBC overpaid elitists whining on about how the Assad ‘Regime’ was only six miles away from Idlib, so the glorious ‘White Helmets’ and other terrorists had to make a run for it.

The sanctimonious self serving hypocrisy of Britain’s elite and BBC propaganda elite, knows no bounds or shame. It is a matter of lie upon lie.  

Their cronies in the U.S State Department and weapons industry are all part of it.  The carbon footprint is no matter when fighting to keep the Russians away from the oil, and pleasing Israel are among the priorities.

To some of us growing up in the 1950s, anxious to shake of the shackles of class and oppressive religion, with working class parents who experienced the brutality, carnage and state lies about World War Two, we hoped to a more honest and fairer world.  We hoped to be free of religious oppression.  

I wondered how anyone could believe any of that God nonsense, especially after a particularly inspiring history teacher, firebrand John Skinner, developed a mind which had already been opened by a brilliant feminist English teacher Mrs Horner.  Teachers are important.  As the Jesuits said ‘Give me the child until he is seven, and I will give you the man ( now we should include the word woman. )

But religion is back, and teachers are indoctrinators.  Muslims are mono culturalist in society where the rest of us have to accept diversity or be labelled racists and homophobes.   Muslim communities provide the terrorists and other problems for the wider society.

The tensions in this socially engineered society should be obvious, its direction should be seen as hopeless.  If it was an aeroplane built like this, it would not fly for long because of all its opposing parts.  It would crash with great loss of life.. Society requires its men and women to pull in the same direction, with honest righteous realistic leaders and rulers- not sanctimonious self serving money grabbers and or religiously deluded bigots.  

Britain is very much about the latter part of this sentence and has done much harm to Europe and the U.S.A with its pompous patronising sense of self importance, and lies about its cruel history.

Tommy Robinson in Russia – white liberals do not like facts. Posted February 23rd 2020

Tommy Robinson in Russia

English Defence League founder Tommy Robinson, from Luton, was guest on today’s edition of Ms O Boyko’s ‘Worlds Apart’. He appeared, having been offered an unedited interview, during his recent visit to Moscow.

Boyko suggested that he had made a difference but would be more effective if he focused on immigration and government failures rather than Islam.  The blonde Russian pointed out that she was married to a Muslim and that Islam does not have to be a problem.  

Robinson said that he had no problem with East European migrants because they shared our culture. Boyko cut in with ‘Muslims are very strong on family values, you should like that.’  She also argued that Christians had the bible, so what was wring with the Koran ?

Robinson responded that if Jesus had lived like the Prophet Mohammed then he would be a problem, as would Christianity if it had not moved out of the Dark Ages.  He pointed out that according to record Mohammed married a 9 year old and raped her when she was 12.  He also noted that Mohammed was a murderer.  

Obviously one should balance that with the point that Mohammed never claimed to be the son of God and only recognised Jesus as a prophet.  Also, the likes of me do not believe that the Old and New testaments, and the Koran from which texts it was derived have any claim to the truth of human origins.  

They are political books and all involved parties have murdered in the name of this so called God, for centuries, re writing it all as they went along.  

As for Mohammed having sex with a 12 year old, well the First Duke of Westminster was around 50 when he married a 12 year old.  Obviously he died before her, so Westminster’s family had her put in the mad house so they could keep the estate. Aristocrats do not seem to have a problem with that, as the latest press reports on Prince Andrew attest – more to come, or should we say CUM ?

Having said that, there is an enormous cultural gap between Muslims and the West ( of us ) at any level of extreme . They are a problem for those of us who thought we lived in a secular society at last free of the sort of class ridden religious bigotry redolent even in the hypocritical 1950s, when I was a child.

We did not like Catholic Irish republican bombers- my maternal grandfather was an Irish Catholic- and we don’t like Muslim ones. I do not like religious bigotry, even though I was once head of RE at the Grange School in sedate Aylesbury.

However, leaving religion to one side, Muslims have some basic values more in keeping with a natural life than the West has.  Saying this one must allow for its hypocrites like the House of Saud – loved by the equally corrupt and decadent hypocritical pseudo Christian Anglo US elite.  

Like the fake Christians around me here in Buckinghamshire, most if not all religious acolytes have no serious knowledge of the religion they purport to follow and obey.  That makes them very nasty people.

The basic point made by Tommy Robinson, is that Muslims do not and will not integrate.  Even moderates want a caliphate.  However moderate they claim to be, they are not going to help reform our very corrupt society.  They use public institutions as if a public right for God’s people – including the corrupt police.

They are disproportionately represented in crime, especially sex crimes.  Robinson went to prison for exposing a cover up of Muslim men’s sex abuse of young white girls, something with which police colluded.  That is another revelation of our fake democracy.  

Islam has a very ancient idea about going forth to multiply, and is a proselyting religion.  Its followers want their own legal system.  This is inflammatory and problematic, and a reality the Guardian and its readers do not like.

Some yers ago, I was commissioned to write three books about Luton, becoming an ambassador for the town, on a council scheme. I gave a talk to the twon’s great and good at the Galaxy Centre in 2003. I understand why Lutonian Tommy Robinson has issues with how the great and good have let things go,  

There are no easy answers. When the great and good of Luton had a municipal celebration of peace after World War One, they did not invite the veterans who fought in it, seeing comrades die horribly.  So these survivors and their friends marched and attacked the Town Council building , setting it afire during the celebrations.  

When Muslims made a vile protest against the local Royal Anglian Regiment’s town centre Rememberance Day Parade, Tommy Robinson decided to do something about it.  The English Defence League was born.  

Luton is only twenty miles – 30 minutes- from where I am writing.  I know what I am writing about. Remember Nero, he fiddled while Rome burned. I am not offering answers, just reporting some facts. White liberals ( sic ) do not like facts.  Robert Cook

‘Liberals Say Never Offend Muslims.’ Posted February 22nd 2020

Amazes me that 30 years ago I was an avid ‘Guardian’ reader, often writing outraged liberal letters that were published. It was more straightfporward being liberal in the 1980s. I was a seriously minded school teacher, conditioned by tutor Sally Inman et al during my postgraduate years in London. Life was black and white, right and wrong with evil Margaret Thatcher and the sneering Tories there to react to.

Not so simple now, psot Thatcher greed/ wars and Blair greed/wars. This si the age of multi culture, so terrorism and radicalisation of Muslims is the big problem.

Even in my day many teachers were spies looking out for racism, sexism and child abuse. Now it is something else, looking out for poetntial terrorists, with the emphasis on right wing kids from right wing- working class deprived in fact- families.

Incredibele there are excuses about needing to teach young Muslim boys not to rape white girsl, but no sensitivity or udnerstanding for what we used to call the indigenous population.

The smug face on the top banner of today;s Guardian tells us much about literary gatekeepers like successful Hilary Mantel. No wonder only 3% of the population go into British bookshops with her sanctimonious PC pap at the top of the overpriced list. Robert Cook

Big Brother Calling The Times Posted February 22nd 2020

Very Hard Labour February 22nd 2020

Happy 120th birthday! The Labour Party will celebrate its big day on Friday as it has celebrated most of them – in opposition and with no clear way out of that unhappy state. 

Tony Blair has marked the occasion with a speech, billed as a broad reflection on the state of the Labour party and British politics but, let’s face it, with an audience of one: Keir Starmer, the overwhelmingly likely candidate to be the party’s next leader.

Blair’s message is that Labour needs to change from top to toe to win, to combine both Britain’s left traditions – liberal and socialist – to win and hold power. The message that has brought Starmer to the verge of victory – that has assembled a coalition running from the former national coordinator of Momentum to the chief organiser of Labour First – is broadly, a change at the top but coupled with a similar political offer to 2017 with a more appealing centre-forward, can win.

Who’s right? The unresolved debate of the last five years is to what extent the 2017 election was a negative mandate – in which Labour probed the absolute limits of what could be won by default – or if it represented the beginnings of a way that Labour could win in a country with an ageing population, sluggish economic, and a fragmented media landscape: conditions which did not apply the last time that Labour won power in 2005. Was it false hope, as Blair believes, or a foundation on which Corbyn failed to build, as Starmer argues? 

There are clearly constituencies – Wycombe which Labour failed to win, Leeds North West and Canterbury which it still holds – where Labour is in a much stronger position, even after a disastrous election in 2019, than it was in 2010 and in some cases 2005 and 2001. What’s that about? And the answer to that question will, I think, define what Labour’s route to power is – and whether it has one.  Stepehen Bush New Statesman

Another Can of Them Posted February 21st 2020

Another Can of Them  February 21^st 2020

Watching Sky News some moments ago, I saw a perfect display of why mainstream media is not to be trusted.  If you will bear with me and this relevant preface I would be obliged.

Back in the early 1970s I was watching the New Faces talent show with my Uncle Charlie.  He could not read, so enjoyed his pleasures simple.

The panel included veteran pre war comics, Ted Ray and Arthur Askey.  When a young man wearing dark glasses, a leather jacket and tight jeans came on stage with his electric guitar, Messrs Ray and Askey could barely hide their smirks, as the cameras cut to the panel.

After the young man’s performance,  Arthur Askey was the first one chosen to asses the musician/singer’s talent or lack of it.  Smirking while looking straight into the camera, and thus millions of living rooms, he chirped :  “ Whenever I see a young man with a guitar, I always say Aye Aye, they’ve opened another can of them. “

That is exactly how I felt and what I thought when I watched a Sky News posh expensively dressed dolled up blonde glamour girl interviewing veteran rock musician Roger Waters on the subject of why Wikileaks Julian Assange should not be extradited to the United States on ludicrous Donald Trumped up extradition charges.

Obviously the woman – who was speaking to him via a video link outside Battersea Power Station, where he was posing with a replica blow up pig replicating an old 60s album cover- was more concerned about her precious vulnerable womanhood than she was about Assange’s revelations of Sate murder, other war crimes and cover up, involving U.S.A and Britain and heroics as a journalist.  

I didn’t catch her name so I will call her Sky Blondie. She even had the gall to talk about ‘our democracies ‘ and the need to obey the rule of law.  She asserted that Assange had the chance to defend himself – a man so abused and tortured by the British State that he cannot remember his birth date or name.

Waters was clearly exasperated by this woman who kept interrupting him with her fixation on rape and the notion that England is a place of justice, where courts can be trusted.  She had a huge problem accepting that the rape accusations were a set up to get Assange into Sweden where he would be extradited. According to her, he abused his stay at the Ecuadorian Embassy.  

Interestingly the U.S gave Ecuador a massive preferential loan ,helping to ensure anti Assange regime change, so the cowardly British police could drag him out, then send him to the famous land of freedom for the very rich and hell for the masses

Waters is participating in a march on Parliament tomorrow in protest about the Johnson Government’s collusion in Assange’s extradition.  Blondie from ‘Sky News’ ( or should one say Sky Views ? ) . basically called Assange a rapist, dismissing the Swedes dropping the case – that was not a case- against him because  there was no evidence. It was a set up.

But as I keep saying, that does not matter to the British elite who keep repeating the mantra ‘our democacy.’ Blondie could not get Water’s point that sending Assange to the U.S was, among other things, a violation of Article 4 of the extradition treaty, which states no extradition for political reasons.

She wasn’t interested in facts, patronising Waters, telling him that Assange had nothing to fear if he was innocent.  Understandably, Waters struggled to control his exasperation, looking skywards for help.  He accused Blondie of not letting him answer her loaded questions. Robert Cook

Opening Up A Minefield Posted February 21st 2020

The British were always the great rule makers of Europe. Now free of Europe’s restraining influence, the brakes are off.  Forget that naive Brits voted to stop mass immigration from North Africa and the Middle East.  

The music industry has now waded in saying this country will lose millions if it bans free movement because it will make it too complicated for bands to perform in Europe or European bands performing here.  The economy will lose millions.  

Visas will cost each group member £244 according to the industry.  ‘The Independent’ ,which is owned by an East European billionaire (sic) warns the Home Secretary about the dangers of ignoring her posh civil servants.

This visa fee is chicken feed to successful bands and nothing compared to what they dodge in other taxes. I am not aware of lots of European bands finding an audience here anyway. This all begs the question how do U.S bands cope with the challenges of world wide tours ?  What about those tours ?  Should we not be offering our contribution to reducing air travel , obviously starting by dropping Heathrow’s Third Runway and taxing flying more heavily?  Why does that industry have to be protected.

Brexit and the British love of rules with double standards, has raised some amusing issues and contradictions.  So we are going to have a coal ban for the sake of the environment.  Well consider the following:

While nylon is extremely useful in our day-to-day lives, the environmental impacts of nylon are significant and should be explored. Nylon is synthetic man-made fibre derived from petrochemicals- a thermoplastic – which is used extensively throughout the fashion industry. It is extremely versatile, and is used for everything from stockings and parachutes, to carpets, packaging and even car parts. The sheer breadth of nylon’s uses means that it is difficult to uncover what the overall contribution of nylon in fashion is to climate change and environmental harm. But we can consider the impact of polyester to get a general sense of this. Nearly 70 million barrels of oil are used every year to produce polyester. Although more polyester than nylon is produced each year, nylon requires more energy to manufacture.  Nylon is also three times more energy intensive than cotton to produce. Considering this we can start to get a sense of the scale of the impact.’

Where should Britain draw the line in showing the rest of the world an example which it will ignore. Should we ban women’s expensive luxury nylon satin and lace lingerie, their stockings and suspenders which men so love to see them wearing, all the garbage of Valentine’s Day – so vital to the economy and keeping women happy and admired ?

No, of course not, just pick on the little people and small businesses supplying the coal, along with poor folk who rely on it =firms like W G Hill of Twyford Bucks. The rich will cope.  Whatever you do, don’t mention the roles that the old Third World religion driven overpopulation is the biggest factor in global warming. Oxygen producing forests, along with so much more of the eco system have been falling for decades, making room for them.  

Now amusingly there is a  middle class protest and fight going on in Germany to stop deforestation to accommodate a TESLA envo friendly car Plant.  TESLA want to make electric cars using cobalt batteries.  

Mining cobalt is environmentally harmful, especially to the miners in the poor countries where it comes from and which the U.S are keen to control.  

No wonder these poor people produce so many children in the hope some will survive to look after them in crippling old age, before they die and go to God’s heaven.  No wonder they hope some of their kids will escape to first world heaven before they die – where they will be welcomed by upper middle class politicians as voters and big business as cheap labour.

These poorly educated people have no clue about the world being one eco system or the greedy liars that think banning coal and wet wood  will make them look as if they are doing something.

How Bad The Rest Of The World Must Be If They Fight To Come Here To Be Free Posted February 20th 2020

Hammer and Nail

‘How bad must the rest of the world be

If immigrants fight to come here to be free

This England is very very diverse

A country all in reverse and converse

It is a place where it’s right to be wrong

A haven for the weak to be strong

This is the topsy turvy place

Staring me right in the face

Something Immigrants can’t see

Though they would if they were me

Me a privileged white male

They the hammer, me the nail.

Feminists Don’t Have a Sense of Humour. Posted February 20th 2020

Feminists do have a sense of humour. It is very petty and directed at what is wrong with ‘privileged white men’ , also with a heightened sense of female oppression and vulnerability. Here is one of their lighter efforts one of their lighter offerings : What is the best thing to come out of a man’s penis when he gets an erection ? The wrinkles.

Like all bullies, feminists don’t like it when the jokes are turned on them. Here is one I heard on the BBC in 2003: ‘If men always fall asleep after sex, how come they can’t catch rapists ?

Here is another from BBC Saturday Reggae. The British West Indian singer stops between songs to crack this one. Imagine the West Indian accent because he sets this one in South London. “A woman is running down the street shouting Grape! Grape ! So I said, Don’t you mean rape ? She reply, No there was a bunch o’ dem . ” I belive it was the Ann Nightingale Saturday afternoon show sometime in the early 1980s.

One time in 2003 I was the female impersonator compering at a hen night in a rough Southampton pub. My lack of experience was soon spotted by a worn out working class hag who screeched ‘You ‘ent done this before. You ain’t taken the price labels off the bottom off your high heels. New ‘ent’ they, like you. ‘

This was my second trauma of the night, the first being an 80 something old man trying to tongue and groping me in the dressing room – i.e the ladies toilets.

The male strippers never turned up, so I was left to face the baying female horde as they chanted ‘STRIP ! STRIP ! STRIP !’. It did not bother them that I was all dressed up as my female alter ego Camilla Parka Rolls.

They wanted to see cock and balls, making it very clear and getting very angry and demonstrative.

Playing for time, I told a joke, doing my best to ignore the Stripper theme tune the DJ had started playing.

I said ‘There was a man who went to the doctor for a sex change. He asked how much it would cost. The doctor said £1000. The man replied ‘That’s rather steep. What is it for ? The doctor said, ‘It is £300 to remove your credentials. ‘ ‘That’s fair enough, but what’s the rest for ? said the man. ‘Oh, that’s for the tricky bit, removing half your brain and making your mouth bigger,

The acid test of whether feminists have a sense of humour is not listening to their demented rants about wife beating, rape and chid abuse, but whether they can laugh at themselbves. They can’t. Polly Sexual

How We Got Here Posted February 19th 2020

Brief History of how we got from 1945 – 2020

Growing up during the early post war years, poverty was so normal it was hardly mentioned.  I can remember the bomb sites of North London.  If my mother saw any kind of mess, inside or out of the house, she would say ‘It looks like a bomb site.’

Towards the 1960s, the BBC Radio news was full of stories about wars in the Middle East and of Britain leaving Africa.  As we got into the 1960s, poverty was rarely mentioned.  Anyone complaining was reminded of the starving millions in Africa and India.

These were the last days of Empire and the heyday of post colonial immigration.  It was the middle classes who worried about immigrants lowering house prices in their neighbourhoods and about black men marrying their daughters.  It was working people who feared wage cuts and job losses, eventually fuelling the rise of  official racism and parties like the National Front and BNP.

Britain’s elite role in the EU was to help their U.S offspring to bomb natives out of the Middle East, thus creating mass migration encouraged to flock through the Europe in hope of accessing Britain’s generous benefit system which is paid for by the underpaid overworked over taxed lower classes.  If this story is compared to opening a petrol can and lighting a match there would be no wonder at the outcome.

But hey, its all OK now because we have left the EU and have our c-nt tree back.  Robert Cook

Women More Equal Than Others February 18th 2020

More Equal Than Men

Caroline Flack’s story is a serious indictment of Britain’s dumbed down police state culture.  Had this been a man charged with assaulting a recumbent female -with the excuse of finding naughty text messages on her phone, there would have been no outcry insisting this was only a minor offence.  

This would have been so even if the hypothetical male in question had killed himself before trial- as some men have done, for example following the malicious Higgs and Wyatt sex abuse scandal of the 1980s.

There is a double standard, in spite of all the equality rhetoric, when it comes to dealing with female on male domestic violence.  However, this is an odd case which seems to have involved a neighbour phoning the police.  I know from experience that the police exaggerate and often lie to get convictions.

The bereaved partner says he did not want the prosecution to go ahead.  He would have been in contempt of court had he tried to see his girlfriend because we live in a police state.  When feminists pressurised politicians to pressurise the police to prioritise alleged domestic violence- with an always guilty presumption- they did not expect this to apply to attractive blonde TV presenters or any woman.

Why mention the blonde attractive thing ?  Because British TV is tacky and ‘Love Island’ was a prime example of this, very chav orientated programme in dumbed down Britain with its hypocritical politicised attitude to sex.  

TV women all too often complain about being abused and underpaid in the media industry, but are never slow at using their looks to make a small fortune, more than the average kitchen slave could dream of.  

Playing the media is a big part of the game as Ulrika Johnson asserts in the bottom left corner of the Sun newspaper’s front page.  She admires her friend Caroline Flack’s media savvy. It is a dangerous game.  Johnson’s unsubstantiated allegations against a male TV presenter she never actually named, led to that man being arrested and his career destroyed by the police and media.  The man, John Leslie, was named by another tacky TV show host named Matthew Wright.  His word about another man raping Johnson was good enough for the media feast that followed.  There was no evidence, or investigation.

As for Caroline Flack’s team, well they will be looking for new jobs. The fact she had a team is most informative about media work and lifestyle.

As for the CPS, I have first hand experience of their arrogance, indifference toward the accused and hell bent determination to convict once the police have fitted up their suspect.  

Evidence is not necessary for the police and CPS to chance it.  However, I think they will fight shy of prosecuting other alleged female abusers of men.  

As for this being a minor offence, that can only be the TV team view because Ms Flack was female.  Otherwise we will need a revised law on this matter with a sliding scale, and possibly special consideration for women, who clearly are more equal than men.  Robert Cook

Miss Understanding Posted February 18th 2020

London’s premier Tavistock Gender Identity Clinic is under constant fire these days for a b’ lase attitude to prescribing mind and body altering hormones blockers and female hormones to children and young adults.

The clinic has been accused of refusing to investigate the causes of this condition.  Without knowing the causes, how can the condition be accurately identified and treated ?

Apparently being transgendered is no longer seen as a mental health issue, although one of their senior staff told me that a person can be ‘both transgendered and mentally ill.’  

Well assuming that to be possibly a true statement or diagnosis, it begs the question of how one might distinguish the condition to be true for someone who is also diagnosed as suffering from a paranoid personality disorder ?

Conciousness is a mystery to scientists, though God given to those deluded by mainstream religions.  These bigots lay down the law on what God’s sacred plan is, justifying all wars, from their particular dogmatic viewpoint, as Holy Wars in God’s name.  So not surprising that Muslims and Catholics have a hell fire and brimstone response to transsexuals.  

God, of course is never to blame for anything.  God is not like a car maker who’s products catch fire after very minor collisions, blowing up and killing the occupants.  No legal responsibility for God, only vacuous acts of worship.  

Seems like the Tavistock are a bit like God.  They rebuild the bodies without knowing what was wrong with them in the first place.  Too dangerous to look at what’s in the water, the negative stereotyping of men, the pressures to make girls compete with boys, or the one parent ‘mummy knows best ‘ families. The whole process is all about Miss Understanding. Polly Sexual

Taking Flack by Polly Sexual Posted February 16th 2020

Taking Flack by Polly Sexual

In the media feminist frenzy to paint boyfriend head bashing ‘sexy’ small screen star Caroline Flack as the real victim in this story, serious points are being deliberately missed.

The sleeping boyfriend grievously attacked by this glamorous 40 year old was in his twenties.

When I finally decided to come out as transgender, I wondered why I didn’t do it sooner.  Obviously society’s vicious and dangerous attitude to transsexuals was a factor.  

However, apart from that the writing was on the wall back in the gender bending 1970s, the age of peace and love, but certainly not ‘Love Island.’ The age of woman was nigh.  Being a bloke was getting dangerous, and I do not mean as a front line soldier in Northern Ireland or Vietnam.

As a child, I used to hear my sister and her friend chanting ‘Sugar and Spice and all things nice, that’s what little girls are made of.  Slugs and snails and puppy dogs tails, that’s what little boys are made of.’

Aged 5, I had no idea of biology, so no clue as to what I might be made of.  I was also rather backward in that I did not know that boys and girls had a complimentary purpose in creating and nurturing life.  For many years the writing was on the wall.  R.J Cook captured my story perfectly in his book ‘Man, Maid, Woman’.

Now in this extreme age of political correctness, it is so difficult and dangerous to challenge the stranglehold of feminist orthodoxy. One has, to coin a very appropriate phrase at this moment in time, “to take the Flack”, if truth is to be told.

Feminists do not have to offer consistent arguments or recognise the basics of human nature.  Their role is to support the nationalisation of women, twisting Marxism into the ideology that women are the underclass who need consciousness raising to become fully fledged servants of the State’s social and economic needs.

Now, living as a mature woman interacting with men, I am surprised by the number of younger ones who have come on to me.  In the process I have learned the real reasons feminists and feminist lesbians do not like transsexual women- moreover I understand why they cannot accept such persons as female.

They are a threat to their feminist harridan cultural monopoly because of their traditional mummy loving style. So many young men have told me what they want and need.  It is not simply sex.  So I am not surprised that Ms Flack’s so called vile ‘love rat’ was texting an even older woman.  What does that say about the even older woman and so called sisterhood ?

I also understand why the moron ex cop recently in the news- he won’t mind me calling him that as he is apparently a champion of free speech – felt the compulsion to tweet his ridicule of transsexual women as men with their dicks cut off.

I am surprised he did not make Chief Constable during his police career with that sort of mindset.  These ‘mature’ ( SIC ) men display the Freudian fear of having their dicks cut off and will do anything to appease modern sis females.

So back to Caroline Flack.  She was a successful TV star fronting chav popular TV, the next step up from Children’s TV where she started – if you don’t have the mentality for serious stuff but the looks to pull in the male viewers and the airheads who want to look and be like you, with all the money, loneliness and posh frocks etc that go with it.

So, as I learned, young men go for that posh mummy look, with all the glam clothes, fancy underwear, intoxicating perfume and well painted faces.  Trouble is, as in Flack’s case, these guys don’t know where to draw the line and cannot get beyond calling and treating you as ‘mummy’ or ‘auntie’. It is such a responsibility for us in this sad world of humanity.  

Mummy’s chastise naughty boys, but this one didn’t expect potential brain damage as punishment for his naughtiness. Ms Flack did not expect to stand trial because women are always seen as victims in British society.

As for Ms Flack’s suicide – she was out of her depth.  It should have been time for her to forget children’s TV and grow up. Too late, and feminist dominated ideology driven mainstream media will ensure no lessons are learned other than ensuring that the next woman- and all the others- who attacks ‘her’ man or anyone else’s man will be let off in case she kills herself.  Polly Sexual

Love Island Host Caroline Flack Commits Suicide February 16th 2020

It is no wonder the statistics on domestic violence make it look as if women are always the victims. Whatever the shortcomings of Ms Flack’s victim of her alleged domestic violence, he was a victim.

In this fake and feminist dominated age of ‘equality’ Flack was going on trial. I have been set up for trial three times by police lies.My ex wife admitted domestic violence against me on at least four occasions she could remember. She told police it was because I said unpleasant things about her interering mother who wanted my youngest son labeled and shut up because of his OCD.

After making my allegations, I was on the recieving end of so called soft intelligence reports which the police still refuse to reveal after 12 years. It appears to be the case that evrytime I complain and demand to know, they make the records longer.

So I know what it is like to sit on the edge looking at suicide as an option. As a ‘privileged white man ‘man, I get no sympathy and if I had given way to the suicide impulse no person apart from my son would care. The media would judge me guilty. They would assume my guilt or insanity.

So I have no sympathy for the shrill media voices surrounding Flack’s untimely death. Men need protection too. The law has skewed in favour of women and the ‘me too ‘ movement. I have been on the receieving end of hate mail and a brick through the front window of my isolated home. A female friend could easily have been killed by it, but the police did not want to know because of their vile malicious records.

The police and courtrs have put me through hell and twice my story has been taken down, presumably due to police complaints. There is a nasty double standard here.

Apparently Flack’s relatives have described her victim as vile. Well she chose him and had no excuse for beating him over the head with a heavy table lamp while he was asleep. she was banned from seeing him because the judge thought she might do more harm.

As for him, whether he likes it or not, his story is now in the public domain. None of us are entitled to have private lives unless we are the police who are the actual judge and jury – always outrgaed if the courts go against their small minded vicious jealous prejudices in police state Britain. As a competent and accomplished social sceintist, I know that all things are connected.

Also , remember, the boyfreiund wasn’t the one who called the police and ambulance. Feminists have opened up homes to the authorities. Neighbours spy on neighbours. Even Boris Johnson was on the receiving end of this mentality in police state Britain. Blame them unless you want to help bully the boyfreind into suicide. Love Island indeed, where is it because it certainly is not Britain. www.robertcookofnorthbucks.com

Queen Camilla Takes Over Role of Blaming Men, From Duchess Meghan Posted February 13th 2020

Bashing Britain

Bashing Britain  February 13^th 2020

Today’s Daily Mail front page story about Duchess Camilla Parka Rolls’ campaign to fight domestic abuse raises some interesting questions about gender relationships in this country.

But first let’s consider why Camilla is allowed to speak out.  Back in the 1990s her now husband Prince Charles was declared unfit to be king because he dared to condemn the greed, grab and cruelty of the Thatcher Tory Government which did so much to wreck jobs and the social fabric- while paving the way to the obscene wealth of the rich today.

Might it not be argued that Camilla has not a clue about the miseries and stresses of the underclass where most of the abuse is perceived to happen – after all no one dares to argue that her brother in law Prince Andrew, Duke, General and God knows what else, is a sex abuser of minors.  

Should she not be commanded to keep her mouth shut as Prince Charles was?  No.  Because British leaders need to neutralise working men who are no longer needed for the filhty dangerous jobs or modern computerised policing and warfare.  They have to be kept in their place.  

If crude labour is needed the elite will import it.  Same goes for skills.  That’s what diversity and helping the poor unfortunate immigrants is for.  Makes the elite and their media folk – especially the feminists- feel good.

Camilla paints with a broad brush and appears to have been drafted in to replace Duchess Meghan in the ‘let’s make the British Royal Family woke and relevant in today’s struggling moralising feminist world.’ It is no wonder that so many young men growing up without fathers, attending politically correct schools and hearing how horrible men are, start queuing up for sex change or going gay at an early age ? Failing that there is always suicide.

If domestic violence is such a big issue, why ignore all the women who coercively control, injure and kill partners.  Where is the unbiased sociological research, the demographic- including class and ethnicity ?  

There isn’t any because domestic violence crusades, like automatically wanting to convict any man- outside the aristocracy- accused of rape is just another stick to beat men with.  Some years ago a police officer told me that 80 % of his call outs were domestic.  

A lawyer told me that alleging domestic violence and abuse guarantees a bigger payout for women in divorce.  So Camilla Park a Rolls I think you are in danger of becoming as absurd as Meghan.  You really do not have a clue. It has been said that your previous husband was honoured to have been cuckolded by the Prince.  

Well your sort live in a fairy tale world and should stay there.  You have no answers to the horrible mess Britain is, beyond the glittering towers of London and other municipal minefields that signal what a gaudy fake money grabbing security camera infested shambles this diversely ridiculous rubbish pit Britain is.

Anyone who thinks Brexit will make it better is a fool.  We will just have more of you ridiculous relics rattling around laying down the law for more brain deficient PC Plods to contain us with – and a plethora of old fogies advertising funeral plans on day time TV, that are cheaper than a price of their favourite coffee.

Why the US and Britain are not democracies Posted February 12th 2020

January 30, 2017 1.38pm GMT

Surely the United States and Britain are democracies. After all, they have free and fair elections and representative governments; freedom of speech and association means that dissent and demonstrations are tolerated; all citizens are deemed equal before the law; and individual civil liberties are respected.

In fact these countries are electoral oligarchies. Political power is closely allied with wealth and immigrants are regularly scapegoated for the inequalities fostered by state policies. Donald Trump’s recent ban on travel for citizens from Muslim countries is but the next stage in the increasingly obsessive and racist policing of those deemed foreign to the polity.

A cursory examination of the word democracy demonstrates that we no longer live, if we ever did, in democracies. True democrats must reject the exclusions and the inequalities which have become the acceptable face of liberal democracy.

Democracy against democracies

Let’s begin with the ancient Greek word “democracy”. The term does not denote a political regime as many have come to understand it. Monarchies and oligarchies are political regimes. They concentrate sovereign power in the hands of the wealthy few. In a democracy, by contrast, the people (the demos) – without qualification – govern. Who counts as a member of this group is an open question. Representative democracies of today, however, bound democracy to citizenship, and neurotically exclude those deemed to have no qualification. As the novelist Tom McCarthy recently argued, for the Athenians of ancient Greece a citizen was first and foremost a citizen of the world. As such they constantly put into question any attempt to restrict the demos.

Recent debates about immigration into Europe tragically confirm the terrible consequences of bounding democracy to a “legitimate” public, for those classified as foreign. Democrats must enact equality in the name of a common humanity, against political regimes which lay claim to the name of democracy.

The power exercised by the demos – or “kratos” in ancient Greek – signified the capacity to act politically, the collective ability to do good. For the ancient Athenians, public office, and representation, were very limited ways of exercising this power.

Democratic power rests on the presupposition that everyone is equal. It tests all political regimes, notably those which assume that democracy is only about voting. In both Britain and the US the representative system allows political parties with a mandate from only one third of the voting public to rule. Moreover limiting democracy to citizens who vote ignores the consequences of how citizens in the UK and the US live for distant others. Those who produce its food, are affected by its wars, produce the energy and goods – all the products which oil the wheels of Western lives. Democracy implies that such limits can never be justified.

Radical ways of thinking

The implications of this argument are radical and go well beyond considerations of immigration policy, although this is a salient place to start. It means that we should never simply equate democracy with existing political regimes. Liberal democracies radically limit the powers of the people. Freedom of information is restricted in the name of state security; every aspect of life is calculated according to the measure of profit, as value becomes almost completely monetary; inequalities of wealth and of pay are extraordinarily high; and equality is daily sacrificed on the altar of individual freedom while millions live their lives in debt, getting by from day to day.

It was no mistake that in 594BC, Solon of Athens insisted that Athenian citizens could not participate fully in public life if indebted. In Britain and the US today too many are marginalised by apparently poor credit ratings, and by state policies which privilege monetary rather than democratic accountability.

All democratic regimes undermine the equality they espouse. In securing borders they exclude others who might be deemed members of “the people”. In protecting against possible challenge and in institutionalising the “best” forms of rule these regimes police the equality which they simultaneously proclaim. It is an equality which rings hollow. Long before the revolutions against the Soviet Union and its satellite regimes, citizens of these states knew that the proclamations of those in power were ruses without foundation.

In the democratic regimes of the “West” today, citizens also live in a world of Orwellian double speak. A topsy-turvy world that tells us that the economy is growing, the stock market is at historic highs, satisfaction ratings have sky rocketed – yet these measures are a semblance which politicians use to pat themselves on the back. Our democracies are oligarchies which protect wealth yet blame those with nothing for the inequalities generated by their own practices.

What then is democracy?

Democracy takes place when equality is enacted in the name of the people. Those committed to democracy should ask themselves the question posed by philosopher Jacques Rancière: “What happens when we act as if all are equal?” To start with, the gross inequalities in wealth preserved by democratic regimes would be challenged. We would recognise that all are capable of participating in rule. Borders separating us “from them” are fictions which preserve inequality. We would reject a society which purchases the future of the young by tying them up in debt, and would ensure that everyone has a decent home not subject to the change in fortunes of a market in property – another one of those measures used to demonstrate the “health” of the economy.

There are instances when political regimes do foster such democratic practices, but these are few and far between. More interesting are the many instances, often unseen, sometimes banned and condemned, when democracy is enacted by the men and women of no property. In Newham in east London in 2014 the Focus E15 mothers’ group occupied housing owned by the local council, on the all but empty Carpenters estate. They were responding to the closure of a nearby hostel for the homeless, to cuts in housing benefit, and to a lack of affordable housing in the city.

The occupiers opened the empty “real estate” to the public as a social centre organising daily events and debates – much to the chagrin of the local mayor and his council who had proposed relocating the mothers and their families to Birmingham in the West Midlands and Hastings in the south. The campaign briefly gained national coverage as the mothers shamed the council into providing social housing on the Carpenters estate.

These women exercised extraordinary power. They did not ask the council for housing. They took what they claimed everyone is entitled to: a home. They refused to accept the council’s claim that there was no affordable housing. Having occupied the homes they engaged the wider public in a debate about the social cleansing of London. Their actions did not stop with this occupation. In the two years since they have lent support to immigrant communities victimised by racists. Other groups fighting social cleansing have sprung up across the south-east. They have lent support to those excluded from the bubble economy that is London, including Deliveroo workers demanding the right to unionise.

Having enacted the equality which democracy promises, these activists now have in their sights the equality distorted by Britain’s political regime. The test of democracy is that whether or not a practice enacts equality without limit in the name of a people unbounded by any prior principle. On this test the US and Britain are not, and never have been, democracies.

British Police State needs more police Posted February 9th 2020

The U.S and British elite seem rather obsessed with asserting that we live in Western Style democracies, this needing ever more police to protect us from the terrorism they started and are so obviously fuelling and refuelling in the Middle East, notably Iran and Syria.

Brits and Americans ( Brmericans ) are educated into ignorance.  They don’t see the simple connection between the elite and professional media/politcal class war on socialism, hence the Russia obsession, and the fact that never has so much of the world’s increasing wealth been in so few hands.  China is villified but produces the bulk of manufactured goods, including MG cars.

Greta is a con trick to shift the blame on debt ridden ignorant masses.  I heard a posh woman asking a Trump betrayer senator whose name I forget, maybe Russell, how they could educate the U.S voters to support the Democrats, but not Sanders.  That was on World Service in the early hours yesterday as I was driving my truck out of Salisbury down to Exeter.  The message was as dark as the sky.

Now Boris Johnson is being told by police to give them 50,000 more cops and pay more taxes for big projects- but not HS2 because it is planned to go through the NIMBY rich peoples back yards.  

The rich folk of South Bucks want an environmentally damagin water wasting and polluting tunnel through the Chilterns if the project does go ahead. Of course it will be the poor who pay because the rich will go on paying their accounting people to legally evade their share of UK taxes.  

I am ashamed to say I used to do that sort of job, having been trained by HM Inspector of Taxes.  I don’t claim to be perfect like some I used to know.  At least I got the sack from that, so must have been doing something right. Robert Cook

Old Folk Like Me February 4th 2020

Old folk like me are familiar with the old saying, when the United States sneezes the world catches cold.  When the European banking crisis began in Germany and Austria in the 1930s, the U.S was already isolating itself.  Black Monday had been and gone.  Wall Street’s greed merchants brought on the inevitable crash.  Only another world war, with the world’s lower orders acting as canon fodder and pawns in the game resolved the problem.

Post war planning was the big idea, but nothing as extreme as Russia’s USSR and China of course. Those countries served as bogey men.  For a blink of an eye, there was hope for an end of this nonsense when the Berlin Wall came down, with drunken Yeltsin selling off Russian assets dirt cheap to cronies we now call Oligarchs – some of whom have bought British Premier League football teams and traded up on their hot young wives along with the Porches.  The U.S led Western elite rather hoped this vulgar mimicry would go on, leading to many more glories including total consensus and control of the oil rich Middle East.

The muddle in the Middle East is beyond ordinary and so it goes on.  The frogs don’t notice the temperature is rising, as with the Australian bush fires, until it is all too late.  The police state operatives and agencies are all around us.  

Here in Britain we have university students employed to spy and snitch on fellow students who say the wrong things, or speak with language not approved by feminists and the State. Members of the public are encouraged to spy on neighbours and report on alleged suspicious or hateful behaviour.  

Britain getting out of Europe will only speed up the process.  Meanwhile, the war mongers go on making war and massive profits, all in the name of democracy. Their massive carbon footprint never makes the news.  So the elite keep on getting richer.  

Three U.S citizens own more wealth than the country’s poorest 38 million.  Presidential candidates are posturing in the Primaries, but they are never asked and never talk about the base line.  Immigrants watch U.S TV and film where they never see the truth about U.S Neverland.  Trendies like Britain’s Prince William and Kate have launched in to the campaign for more diversity in BAFTAS and Oscars.  They have to find another way in to looking ethnic relevant since Meghan’s departure from diverse UK.  

But the real diversity issue relating to film and all media is not race, it is class, the upper and upper middle dominating the ranks, agenda, editorial and language code.  Talk about what gender or race  is going to get their is yet another distraction from the elite in our fake western democracies- a situation led and dominated by Britain and its U.S offspring of elite rulers who just have to find ever new ways of keeping the masses down, afraid, poor, ignorant and in order.  Robert Cook

MISS RULE BRITTANIA OTHERWISE KNOWN AS PC WORLD OF IDIOTS OR THE VERY VERY VERY MODEL OF A MODERN POLICE STATE February 2nd 2020

Just how stupid are British people?  The last time I went to the Proms Concert in Albert Hall, a stuck up white male bourgeoise Brit threatened to have me thrown out for singing ‘Britains always, always will be slaves.’  I believe the year was 2011.

Now we are about to Brexit.  I never thought it would solve any deep rooted national problems, but I always thought it would stop our bungling ruling class from blaming Europe for their idiotic greed and incompetence.

Why do you think any of them wanted it in the first place ?  To have a freer hand in ruling us of course.  We have ‘Handy’ Andy Windsor claiming he only stayed with paedophile Epstein to be near Epstein’s girlfriend.  How odd is that?  Now Handy Andy dismisses his accuser as a  SICK GIRL.  How many accused abusers have used that excuse? Different rules apply to us lower orders in a world where women never lie – so much easier to get rape convictions outside European law. Wasn’t it wonderful before Europe ?

Well, we can expect more of all that now… Posh BBC man Nick Robinson- check out our profile page- says we need to look at where we are going to get our workers from now- Today Programme Feb 1^st.  Certainly not the dole queue, have to keep wages down and profits for the rich few up you know. Sould be fun, bearing in mind that Britain’s sad deluded ‘patriots’ voted leave to shut out ‘Johnny foreigner’ and reclaim their homeland.

As I write, there is a report of a new terrorist outrage in sleazy Streatham South london, near where I lived long ago, with many stabbings.

Police have also been called in to investigate a hate crime at Winchester House in Norwich.  Some deluded person put up a poster declaring that ‘Now we have our country back everyone here must speak English.’  We can expect more of this bright new future.

Robert Cook

Apropos Winchester House Tower block, someone swiftly complained and PC PC Plod and Plodette are now on the case.  Country back from who, what country ?  The country is still in Europe up until 31/12/20, in transition to the old upper class ruling elite where the likes of Prince Andrew can do as they like – FOOL, to borrow a phrase from BJ Barakus.

God Help Us Posted January 31st 2020

I am thinking about God, who seems to have made a comeback, and the Corona Virus. God made everything religious people insist upon this. So God must be a weird sceintist, why make such a miserable system?
Lesser sceintists than God say :”What are the possible causes of the outbreak of CORONA?

Scientists believe an “unknown intermediate” may be spreading the infectious virus.

Bats, camels and other animals are carriers of the viruses which mutate and then are passed on to humans.

Traces of the disease were found at a food market in Wuhan, China, which has been identified at the epicentre of the outbreak.

The market sold seafood, as well as live consumable animals including poultry, donkeys, sheep, pigs, camels, foxes, badgers, bamboo rats, hedgehogs and reptiles. “

Human’s are overpopulating massively. We live in ever closer and dangerous proximity. Diversity slogans are a political sop masking reality in peoples’minds. We are doing so much more harm than carbon emissions in order to sustain this absurd situation. It is laughable and obscene that wheeling little Greta out to address self interested billionaires and elite politicians at the rich persons’ haven of Davos can be seen as taken so seriously.

The stupid debate as to whether there is a limit to how many lifestyle economic migrants and refugees from wrecked and ruined South Asia, Middle East and Africa can move to Europe misses the point.

The question is how many human beings can the planet sustain period? The average African female has 10- 15 babies on a continent of rising heat and political instability.

The people who voted Brexit to stop this flow to Europe missed the point and should not expect things to get better. There will just be more control and education to stop.us thinking and rationally responding. More crises are inevitable. Greta is just a distraction making the media and other elitists look good.

My first professional training was as an economist. This so called social science of economics came out of the Industrial Revolution upheval –all British ideas as the empire grew ridiculously and disruptively large. That is why this country became involved in two world wars, with today’s ongoing fallout.

Foremost amongst the much scorned economists of this new age was Rev Thomas Malthus. His words and ideas have never been welcome to the ruling greedy class. He theorised that ” passion between the sexes” is a given, so human population will outstrip the food supply. The result will be war, disease and famine.

England’s Green and Pleasant Land Posted January 29th 2020

England’s Green and Pleasant Land

On Monday I had the pleasant and interesting company of a co driver on the long haul and complex deliveries needing to be made in and around Plymouth and Exeter. The weather, as expected was miserable, damp and grey.

My colleague was new to the business so there was much to talk about in that respect. Aged 62, his life had been varied and hard.  He told me that he and his wife were still struggling to make ends meet. Debt collectors were a source of fear since his business failed and Lloyds refused to pay out on his PPI- having mis sold it to him to cover a loan. Instead of admitting their serious failing, the government owned bank sold the debt on to ruthless threatening debt collectors. That is Britain today.

I was particularly intrigued by his account of time he spent in Northern Ireland. This was not as a soldier, as is often the case with British truck drivers. It was for the other obvious reason, he had met a girl.  She invited him to live with her on a Protestant estate.  Most of us know the magic of women, how mesmerised we become.  They lure us like the Sirens of mythology lured sailors, onto the rocks.

So my co driver told me that the Ulster people were more Royalist Loyalist British than the people on the mainland. There had seen some awe inspiring murals depicting the likes of King Billy’s ‘Battle of the Boyne ‘, painted big and bold on terrace ends.  ‘What surprised me more was the fact the locals had painted the kerb stones on roundabouts British red white and blue.’

My colleague concluded that being Protestant and British meant everything to them. It was the basis of their whole identity. His identity at the time was problematic. With a Catholic Irish mother he had been raised and Christened as a Catholic. Living in Ulster, on a Protestant estate , that was a secret he and his young girlfriend- this was the dangerous early 1980s so he could not afford to share with any of the neighbours.

He chuckled and smiled about the day the Royal Ulster Constabulary stopped them in the car his girlfriend was driving.  The officer asked for her driving licence.  She lied that it was at home, when in fact she had no licence.  He gave her a notice to produce it at the police station within seven days.

Two evenings later the couple were sitting indoors when there was a massive explosion.  It rocked the house.  The couple rushed outside with the girls little boy, joining the crowd of others. Many windows had been blown out by the blast.  A little way up the road was the smoking remains of what was left of the police station after a rocket attack.  His girlfriend was in the clear. All the records had been destroyed.

Some time later , word went around that the I.R.A were planning a big attack on the estate.  ‘All the men were called together to form patrols from midnight until 8 a.m in the morning.  We went to house where I had never seen so many guns of different sorts or sizes.  In fact it was the first time I had ever seen a gun, so never handled one.  I had to do it.  I was scared witless out there with them at night.  That was one of the reasons I knew I had to come back to England.’

When I was a very young schoolboy we used to sing a hymn with the line ‘In England’s green and pleasant land, was Jerusalem buil- ded here in England’s green and pleasant land.  From the view point of a geologist or geomorphologist , there is still a lot of green in this country because the rich keep 90 % to themselves, the masses are crowded on 10 % of the land which is mostly bleak grim polluted and sad, mortgaged to the rich and their banks.

Here in the most densely populated parts of Europe’s most densely populated country, the crowded dumbed down British masses bask in anti social government monitored cyber space because there is not much other space.  

As I write a bulletin has come in about BA suspending all flights to China where the Coronavirus is jumping from person to person= a very short jump.  ‘Oh what a piece of work is man , how noble in reason’ .  Shakespeare wrote that and so many other brilliant lines during the more enlightened Elizabethan 17^th century times which followed the dark days of Mary Tudor who threw Protestants alive onto bonfires.

Now we have popular culture.  There is rap and multi culture.  Taylor Swift flaunts her assets exciting the men while acting as a role model for hopeless girls, then gets a disc jockey sacked because she alleged he touched her bum.  

This is the age of diversity, so we have to accept the mantra or mantrap that women never lie. This isn’t just dumbed down little England because Britain is still a big noise in the world, punching well above its weight.  Today the old Tory Telegraph newspaper reports that diversity means the Middle Classes are not finding it so easy to get into Oxford and Cambridge University. They won’t like that.  

Another bulletin has just told me that Prince Andrew is angry because the FBI went public over him using Royal Privilege to avoid talking to them about sex abuse allegations. No wonder British Royalty and government wanted a half black Princess in their ranks to make them look NORMAL.

There in the Oxford great seat of learning, twenty miles from where I am writing now – Cardinal Wolsely graduated from Oxford aged 15 – transexuals bar feminist speakers and feminists bar them.  Diversity is the thing here in England. It works so well,  a bit like putting petrol in your diesel car or all over yoUr electric car battery TERMINALS.  When it explodes, just talk to what is left of it.  Calm it down, boost its spirits, make it feel better, tell it to be whatever it wants to be.  But remember what happened to ‘Humpty Dumpty ‘ when he fell off the wall.  ‘All the King’s horses, and all the King’s men couldn’t put ‘Humpty Dumpty’ together again.  Robert Cook

The Fool In The Crown January 26th 2020

Watching the first and second series of the Crown on Netflix wafted me back to my 1950s childhood and 1960s teen years.  I was born grew up in a tiny damp draughty terraced house with an outside toilet. We had no running hot water or bath. We had a tiny back garden where my father grew potatoes.  

At night we peed in a bucket on the landing.  For anything else, in winter it was a freezing trip up the back alley to the outside lavatory.  We were so poor, we used torn up newspaper as substiture toilet roll- and brown paper bags torn up if we had any.

My ex soldier father used to cycle ten miles to his lorry driving job based at a brickyard in Bletchley- an industry long gone thanks to asset stripper Lord Hanson, a major donor to Thatcher’s Tories.

To upper middle class feminist rabble rousers and self righteous well paid media folk all white males are privileged.  What a privilege for my father to cycle to and from home all weathers at 2 am in the morning, getting back around 6 pm- six days a week!  He had been lucky to survive Dunkirk, fighting as a regular soldier for the ruthless manipulative duplicitous patronising incompetent British upper classes.

My father died when I was 11 years old.  The job, and an incompetent doctor, killed him.  So the 1960s were anything but swinging for me. I was not on drugs, so I remember them. I used to deliver newspapers in the early morning and work on a farm at night.  

When I got to an elitist university I had to work my 20 weeks vacations on dangerous building sites.  Most of my fellow students went off for fun sunny holidays abroad- where, as Oscar Wilde said ‘ travel narrowed their minds.’  So I do not take lectures about equality and privilege from privileged feminists, black or white – including Lilly Allen and Duchess Meghan.

It is high time the Royal Family were retired, we cleared the decks of ‘Titanic’ Britain, to consider the reality of inequality, power , privilege and corruption in all key areas- including the much publicised corrupt and dishonest police. These days it is more a case of ‘The Fool in the Crown’ rather than the ‘Jewel.’ Robert Cook

Nice People in Police State Britain Posted January 23rd 2020

Several weeks ago, and 12 years after my police nightmare began, I sent a further complaint to Thames Valley Police. I am the ex brother in law of DCC Simon Chesterman. He is among other things, the man who covered up for three associated lying police officers in the Plebgate Scandal. I knew him and we shared a room in a bungalow near Portsmouth when he was 14, back in 1976.

Today I received a reply reference my last arrest by TVP and another twelve hours in the cells- which I will detail later in this article. They refuse to comment on the status of their ongoing investigation into allegations that I am a gay prostitute working for my son, from home.

Chesterman has admitted involving himself in my divorce back in 2008/9. He did more than that. He supported his sister’s weird dictat that my eldest son should never see his brother again, creating malicious so called soft intelliegnce to criminalise my eldest son and me.

H e committed perjury, misconduct in public office and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice, along with his police officer wife, his sister- my ex wife – Sergeant Rees and female constable partner from Ludlow of WMP, his mother and probably others.

When I found substantive evidence out about this in 2014 and complained, the police and CPS lied to the judge about alleged domestic violence on my part and I was threatened with a long prison setence if I did not plead guilty to breach of restraining order for making my complaint. My legal fees for a top barrister were horrendous, not to mention the health stress. After seven very stressful hearings, I was found not guilty and repeated threats of jail.

All the time I had to work long hard hours as a truck driver because the Chestermans destroyed my professional reputation as a writer, musician, teacher and journalist. My ex wife bombarded the local doctor’s surgery- her ex employer with allegations that I am an alcoholic- allegations which they accepted and assed to the police. I also have evidence that the police contacted the surgery.

Chesterman motive, along with his cash strapped family due to his first adultery caused divorce and expensive taste – who have a hstory of mental illness= was to exploit and shut up my youngest OCD suffering son Edward, for money.

My ex wife was in an abusive relationship with Edward which drove me to a near successful suicide. She admitted to police hitting me on four occasions she could remember.

Up until the time she took Edward from the marital home, when he was 20, she was still taking him to the toilet and washing him. I have in my possession a document which he wrote, and she signed, promising to help him commit suicide if his life got any worse. PC Grainger of Thames Valley Police refused to read this document.

There is much more to be said about this vile story. The British Police are not heroes. They are generally incompetent bullying liars with expertise at high level cover ups, with a corrupt promotion system. So far the police have made three terrifying attempts using the court system to jail me.

The last time was almost funny. On the morining of February 2nd 2018 I had lain in bed late, having a day off truck driving to keep my long gruelling hours down. I was awoken at 8.30 by very loud door banging, a raucous voice screaming ‘Open Up it Is the Police.’ It sounded like an hysterical woman but turned out to be acting DC Bellamy of TVP. My eldest son answered the door.

There were seven police officers to ransack my house, steal documents and computers which they kept for three months, not returning them until I phoned six times, eventually swearing at them on the answer phone- then taken to Crown Court for bad langauge, and threatened with Prison if I did not admit guilt to causing Bellamy alarm and distress for not answring my calls to know when I could get my stuff back.. He wanted damages from me.

So, back to February 2nd 2018, Bellamy told me I was under arrest and that he would read me my rights at the police station. I asked why I was being arrested. He said for breach of restraining order by sending evenge porn of myself and my wife to my ex wife, her brother and their bosses. This restraining order was made after I was previously arrested for writing about all of this on the net and stalking the virtuous Chestermans- so it will happen again soon. I don’t mean that i will stalk them and never have stalked them. Chesterman and his family lied about that, getting a secret PNC Criminal Marker on my car and so called soft intelligence about me being a violent threat to them, dated October 9th 2008. I was not supposed to find out about that. However, being chased every where when on the road in my car, obviously raised my suspicions and I am good at finding things out.

Allegedly I stalked the Chesterman’s remote rural home threatening violence over the weekend of October 4th/5th 2008, when I could prove that I was hundreds of miles away north of Liverpool. I wasn’t there, so the police in this case are criminal liars. I was never interviewed at the time, only finding out about the PNC Criminal Marker after requesting CRB clearance to stay at exclusive Woldingham School with a female teacher /musician friend- which I eventually got strange to say.

I gave the police 12 monts to explain the marker and records- which had the police recklessly chasing me every time they saw me – before going on the net, as I have done again before making ths post. It is nearly two years since my last arrest and prosecution, when once again I was found not guilty of the CPS police created charges.

Back in 2018, I had allegedly sent porn pictures of myself and ex wife, along with video and incriminating letters to three senior police officers, my ex wife and ex brother in law’s boss and him.

After a long time in the cells, I was told the video did not exist – though it was referenced on police documents- also a picture of a strange woman wearing lingerie who Bellamy suggested was my wife, and one of myself laying on a bed. The accompanying letters, of which I was shown a specimen, was typed with a typed name. It was not my name. They said I had used a false name and posted all the letters in Northampton which is 24 miles north of home.

As it turned out, the police had investigated nothing before arresting me, simply using the restraining order to arrest and enter my home. That is all they need to get in to a person’s house. In my case they admitted watching the remote property for three months. They had no forensic evidence, and like the stalking allegations back in October 2008, I could prove I was elsewhere at the time.

When I told them the material had obviously been sent by my aggrieved ex partner – because I dumped her for colludimg with them- they did not want to know.

By the way, they targeted my ex partner with Chestrman lies after she made a Claire’s Law request. Now, I am apparentlty paranoid- PPD. A psychiatrist was sent around to confirm this, along with a medical student and mental health nurse warning me of the dangers of them having to send me to a secure unit.. According to his report, I do not need hospital YET! These are such NICE PEOPLE. Move over Julian Assange, this is Police State Britain.

Carbon Blindness Greta at Davos Posted January 23rd 2020

Little Greta Thunberg is becoming a very polished and convincing speaker. below is an account of her appearance at the Davos Summit yesterday. I have highlighted two key sentences :

What did Greta Thunberg say?

Greta urged her audience, who were largely made up of world leaders, to listen to young people.

She spoke during a panel session titled Forging a Sustainable Path Towards a Common Future.

She said: “I’m not a person that can complain about not being heard.

“The science and voice of young people is not the centre of the conversation, but it needs to be.”

Thunberg continued: “It is about us and future generations and those who have been affected today.

“We need to bring the science into the conversation.”
You can watch her speech here. 

Greta will also be speaking on during a second panel session titled Averting a Climate Apocalypse.

Greta has three recurring themes in her simplistic speeches and interviews. They are ‘ the science’ , ‘young people’ and carbon emissions. She never mentions global politics, national economic and political self interest or global overpopulation principally from what we old folk used to call the Third World.

For her it is a mssion to have an army of righteous international ‘young people’ fighting old ruling people to reduce the key enemy of carbon emissions because the science says so.

The idealisation of young people as an international force for good is absurd. They are divided along so many cultural and historical lines. They are not universally well educated or capable of altruism. In the west, those of higher class are usually bought into the system, and at best hypocrits like Prince Harry and Meghan. Those of lower class are struggling in dead end jobs, drug and booze addicts, unemployed and possibly suicidal.

As for the science, there is no homogenous blob of climate science. Carbon is not inherently bad. Plants need carbon. We need plants. However, continously expanding population destroys the green environment.

Wage slaves and religious bigots are not open to the finer things or thoughts in life. Middle class folk may boast about driving electric cars but, as we see in Germany, they do not want an electric car plant near them. Electric cars need batteries made with cobalt. Cobalt mining is incredibly polluting and harmful to poor people in countries where it is exploited for the benefit of Western backed dictators. The carbon fibre boat Greta used to sail to the U.S was built by a carbon intense polluting process.

The more people there are, young or old, the worse it gets. Africa has been kept down for centuries by the likes of Britain and the U.S, divisions exploited so as to extract resources traded by young parasites on the world’s commodity markets, where terms of trade have been historically manipulated by the get richer quicker parasites across the world.

The West fear Chinese and Russian intrusion into the African hell hole where they might actually bring some order and infrastructure. The reality and truth of climate change is unpleasant and Gurning Greta is getting in the way of revealing it. Population growth is the root cause. Robert Cook

Women Suffer So Much January 21st 2020

Without doubt my mother had a terrible life. My father suffered too. He lived long enough to discipline me into a life long agony of self criticism , self doubt and discipline, while spoiling my sister.

Dying in 1962, he left his daughter looking for a replacement to give her what she wanted. She became pregnant while still a member of her grammar school sixth form. She got her man, old style- even though he was older and married, had two children- with another on the way.

Those are all stories in their own right. They are part of Britain’s 20th century continium leading us to where we are today.

And today, as with my father and his attitude to my sister, we have a world where women can do no wrong. Wrong can only be done to them.

Opportunity In Britain’s Police State Posted January 21st 2020

Identity is basic to human survival and cooperation.  Without it we are just as savage as the most dangerous of animals.  With it, we can also be savage and cruel. Hence war and violent crime.  It is a  struggle and delicate balance to achieve a long term and beneficial sense of identity.  The parts must ultimately fit or the atoms of society will break apart.

In modern so called civilised societies, our parents teach us from what they have been taught and experienced. If feminism is used to divide the family unit, dysfunction will result, harming children irrevocably.  I think this has much to do with youth suicide and the current euthanasia trual going on in Belgium.

In Britain, the ruling elite controls what we go on to learn at school, where they pretend and deny that this country is not still firmly divided along class lines.  The pretence cum distraction is that the divisions that need sorting are between the sexes and races.  The solution, they say is diversity and multi culture.  More and more laws are being passed to enforce this view.

Outside of the elite, there is little if any room for individualism.  Public space is increasingly being extended into our homes.  Cameras are ubiquitous.  Conveniently, as with the police murdering innocent Charles de Mendez at Stockwell tube station, the video recordings go missing if the authorities are compromised- hence the need to jail and extradite Julian Assange for leaking Chesea Manning’s revelations. .

This is because we live in a police state and the police must not be brought to justice. Camera evidence is in their hands, they are the editors. They edit justice, writing the final scenes with the CPS. They are part of a system enforcing our official identity.

The Nazis pioneered modern police state methods and technologies.  After the war, British authorities were quick to use their methods, experimenting ruthlessly in their old African and Middle Eastern Empires- their legacy lives on still threatening world peace.

It is interesting how the British invaded both North America and Africa.  They took over the former as a desireable place to live.  Genocide was a necessary part of the process, wiping out the peace loving natural balance of the Red Indian ( Mongoloid ) people.  Inevitably these conquerors declared independence from a Britain they no longer needed.  The African story was rather different- as with India too.

Africa could not be overcome in the same way. The targets were not so soft.  Gladsone condemned his political rival Disraeli for the bloodstains of empire building.  So the process of conquest was more insidious, leaving us with the ruthless black British placemen, like Mugabee, who have done even more harm. Boris Johnson thinks he can do business with them and welcomes their migrants to the U.K.  

It worries Britain and the U.S.A that China and Russia are investing in Africa, which is why the U.S has bases there and offers them crumbs while Britain offers patronage, through the likes of Prince Harry with Meghan, and a home for their surplus population.

The richest 20 people in the world own more wealth than all the black women in Africa. Of course that is not difficult to achieve because, leaving aside the likes of Mrs Mugabee, black African women have no wealth. They live from hand to mouth, along with their children.

The average black woman in Africa has 10 – 15 children.  Africa’s population is expected to reach 2 billion by 2050, while Europe’s indigenous population declines because their women do not want babies..  

In crowded Britain, 90 % of the population live on 10 % of the land.  So Britain faces an interesting future because the rich will go on making the laws, but they won’t give up their land when more and more of Africa’s unsustainable population arrives.  Nor will they give up their jet set life style as they use the little Greta types to reign in the rest of us.  Still, most will have the world of virtual reality- subject to their being enough environmentally friendly electricty.  Failing that, pills, suicide, war, violent crime and disease should sort it all out.

The poor working classes – now called chavs because so few have the sort of work, if they have any work, that gives then a worthwhile sense of identity- perceive this as further intrusion and change for what passes for their communities.  

Migrants from Africa have a sense of entitlement based on liberal versions of history condemning all white men as racists.  Muslim migrants have their idea of God in a Britain that pays lip service to religion and homage to billionaire footballers, along with mindless consumerism- including reality TV.

How and what this will develop into should be a cause for concern.  When I started school, coming from a materially poor but highly literate though sheltered background, there was no shortage of 5 year old morons from local council houses.  

They were eager to tell me what I was, eager to punch and kick me into submission.  Teachers also told me what I was and what I would become.  Identities in that post war period seemed cut and dried.  Has anything really changed ?  We may be told that boys and girls can switch clothes to express their true selves, but the larger issues of how we may identify ourselves are still strictly controlled from above.  

The long winded agonising over departing Meghan Markle from the British media spotlight is because she had been welcomed as an ethnic  Afro American one speaking down to us as a senior Royal from a modernised Royal Family about how women and Africa deserve so much more because of white men’s past crimes and exploitation.  

If we were really modernising then we would be asking why we need Royalty to tell us anything or to act as hypocritical exemplars.  Prince Harry may well agonise and use his mother’s death to promote his self righteousness, but he would never dare comment on her life style and how mysteriously she came to die.  He has neither the guts, nor the opportunity in the British Police State.  Robert Cook

Last Laugh Posted January 19th 2020

Political correctness is not against laughing at people so long as they are the right people. The latest news about legendary comedy series ‘The Simpsons’ is rather alarming to me. Below is a report from Vulture Website.

In the 2017 documentary The Problem With Apu, comedian Hari Kondabolu likened The Simpsons’ Apu Nahasapeemapetilon to a minstrel, and examined how the caricature of an Indian man voiced by Hank Azaria impacts South Asian representation on television. Now, The Simpsons has responded to the doc, showing Marge and Lisa Simpson in conversation about an old children’s book Marge has edited to be less offensive — and, it turns out, less good. “Well, what am I supposed to do?” Marge asks. “It’s hard to say. Something that started decades ago and was applauded and inoffensive is now politically incorrect,” Lisa answers. “What can you do?” To underline the point, the show pans to a bedside photo of Apu.

Slash Magazine reported the following :

Hank Azaria says he has no plans to continue voicing the character of Apu on “The Simpsons,” according to an industry blog. But that isn’t to say the Indian immigrant convenience store owner Azaria brought alive for 30 years won’t live on.

Producers and Fox Broadcasting Co. wouldn’t confirm to The Associated Press Azaria’s exit or an end to Apu, a recurring character that has drawn criticism for reinforcing racial stereotypes. There was no immediate reply Saturday from Azaria’s publicist.

One could argue that it is racist to cut the character, which has not been decided yet. Of greater importance are the references to stereotypes. The worst sereotype in this series is Homer Simpson, and then all the other ordinary white stupid Americans, the type of which Hilary Clinton called deplorables – the type of whose men make up the U.S front line troops and mourn the needless dead.

The great strength and point of ‘The Simpsons’ was to expose and laugh at human pretentions, snobbery and hypocrisy. Start by making Apu a posh voiced man barred from professional life as a lawyer and all will fall away. So why bother? End the show now. Robert Cook

Grave New World Posted January 19th 2020

Below is an extract from Yesterday’s Telegraph nespaper.

‘Do you like sushi? Stop touching my hair! Why are you frying a banana? These are just some of the phrases we’re not allowed to utter at Sheffield University anymore. They’re “micro-aggressions” (subtly racist remarks), apparently. 

This Russell Group university is paying 20 students £9.34 an hour to be “race equality champions” and police their peers’ thoughts. They will teach classes that explain how to “lead healthy conversations” so we are not at risk of saying something that might offend. I began my politics degree at Sheffield hoping to find reasoned debate, and the embrace of opposing views. Instead, I entered an atmosphere rife with woke, intolerant, censorious anti-intellectualism.’ Ewan Somerville

This university, or perhaps one should say ‘uni’ for the sake of modern politically correct parlance, is part of the so called elite Russell Group. This is interesting because listening to some of the students talking in favour of this Orwellian horror, spoken English did not seem to be flowing off their tongues.

We have a new kind of elitism in Britain. It is about having and expressing the correct way of thinking. I mentioned on the Polly Sexual page how a police officer visited a man because he wanted to know how that ,am was thinking about male to female transexuals.

The man had commenetd on line that men could not become biological females. His comments were spooited and reported. Feminist guru Germaine Greer said a similar thing. But these days, we are not allowed to state the obvious for fear of causing offence. Greer also said the unthinkable when she commenetd that most rape was simply bad sex. She has since vansihed from mainstream media.

The reason it has become so important not to ask a person of colour, who is speaking in a foreign accent, where they have come from is because those people must not know that they have been noticed as possible immigrants or foreign students. If authorities can kill the questions they can kill the thoughts.

Young people must be indoctrinated into the virtues of mass immigration and gender fluidity. The elite are not interested in mass poverty or unemployment. They are not interested in the consequences of feminism and family breakdown. They are not interested in the reality of gangs of Asian men grooming young white girls for sexually perverted paeodophiles. That is the Grave New World of Britain today. Leaving Europe will not make this country better, but it might be good for the rest of Europe in the long term. Robert Cook

Harry and Meghan Markle release video of his ‘final’ engagement as senior royal at Buckingham Palace – pointedly accompanied by Stone Roses hit that includes the line ‘I’d like to leave the country for month of Sundays’ Posted January 17th 2020

The following extract speaks volumes about spolied Prince Harry and the relevance of the Britihs Royal Family :

‘Prince Harry’s potential last job as a senior royal before he emigrates to Canada has been marked with an official Instagram video set to a Stone Roses hit which famously features the words: ‘I’d like to leave the country’. 

And in what could be interpreted as nod to his imminent exit to North America, the soundtrack was the Stone Roses’ indie hit This Is the One, which contains the lyrics: ‘I’d like to leave the country for a month of Sundays’. These words are not heard in the video but it seems inconceivable the royal couple’s advisers were unaware of the lyrics when the well-known song was chosen.’

Meanwhile over in Canada, Meghan’s on a Mission :

Meghan Markle ‘impromptu’ drop-in at another Vancouver women’s group to discuss ‘climate justice for girls’ 

Meghan Markle has popped up again in Vancouver to support a feminist climate change group called ‘Justice for Girls’. 

The Duchess of Sussex visited campaigners who said the former Suits star, who donned a cashmere sweater she wore on the show, discussed ‘issues affecting women’ including how rising global temperatures and the justice system ‘disproportionately’ hits women and girls around the world.

Source ‘The Mail’

My thoughts are that he is a spoiled self serving egotist, utterly irrelevant to Brtitish everyday life. His narcisism brings back memory of his equally self obsessed mother who did so much to bring the Royal family into disrepute.

As for him wanting to leave the country, with all his security back up, money and ever complaining wife, there are many more who would like to do that and enjoy a life of luxury away from a country where all the profit, opportunity and credit goes to spolied men and women like him.

All this bull about him and Meghan being just a young couple who want to get on with their lives is nauseating, especially when the PR and media add the nonsense about her being a role model for women, especially those of colour. Like Harry, Meghan is a spolied product of an elite background. It would at least be nice if the rest of British Royalty embarked back in time to the Candadian Dominion. leaving Britain to become a modern republic. Robert Cook

Portsmouth Return Posted January 17th 2020

I was back in Portsmouth yesterday, where it is a joy to be. Few people realise it is an island city, being which gives it a certain character and an interesting history- about which I have written two books and co authored another to date.

Yesterday’s weather was, as usual rather unpleasant. Eating lunch and watching the rough waves on the Solent was still relaxing. The outbound Isle of Wight Hovercraft was struggling on its way, under very grey skies. The ferry, looking top heavy, was heavier and more majestic on its way in.

By this time, I had spent time browsing in Charity shops and Waterstones in Commercial Road, also looking at the site where the Tricorn used to be- and the memory in mind of re development plan from Centros Miller in this curious story part told in my co authored book on Tricorn.

Waterstones had an interesting display of books on strong feisty women. Greta’s memoir, in hardback was piled high and half price at £7. It is basically a collection of photographs of the young gurning Greta, looking as scarey as the climate crisis her image is meant to decribe and portend.

Eveen more frightening are the other books by the Clinton women and Michelle Obama and the sex war that will never end till all men in the west kow tow.

Talking of kow towing takes my mind east and to the image of Kim Yong Un, or whatever his name is. There was some light relief in a volume called ‘Choose you Apocalypse.’

Hopefully Waterstones will soon have a display of my new book on Portsmouth which will be as brilliant and successful as my last ones- I hope. Robert Cook

Ugly Truth That Must Not Be Spoken In Polite Company Posted January 16th 2020

The BBC – Big Brother Calling- has just published the following advertising for a new TV Documentary series from legendary naturalist and their former boss David Attenborough. it is pretty patronising stuff. Education has become a weapon for advancement rather than enlightenment, with religion getting a new lease of life- but still what Marx called the opium of the masses. And so to Attenborough:

‘When it comes to climate change, “we’re refusing to take steps that we know have to be taken”. That’s the damning verdict of naturalist Sir David Attenborough, who declares “the moment of crisis has come”, in a BBC News interview to launch a year of special coverage on the subject of climate change. The Our Planet Matters project – across digital, TV and radio – includes a new monthly Climate Check podcast from BBC Weather, and coverage of debates and events around the globe.

As part of it, Sir David plans a new hour-long documentary – Extinction: The Facts – to examine the fragile state of the natural world. On Radio 4’s PM programme, Rianna Croxford will look at how we can respond to the climate crisis at home by examining the environmental impact of individual household items. And our coverage goes back to basics, with global science correspondent Rebecca Morelle explaining what we mean when we talk about climate change. We have also produced seven charts to help you visualise the problem and understand how aspects such as the places we live and the food we eat affect the situation. ‘

My thoughts,’ The Fire Next Time’ : Many years ago, possibly the late 1980s, I watched Attenborough’s Christmas broadcast of the Reith lectures. To coin a phrase from my hippy youth, he was ‘mind blowing’.

He talked about the fate of dinosaurs and the bleak future facing mankind, naming overpopulation as the big issue that would lead to our extinction if we did not do something about it.

Today I heard Putin and his new PM on television talking about the need to create more economic growth in Russia. China has been belching out pollutants and expanding its population for years while the U.S and Germany are unrepentant about expanding use of fossil fuels.

Meanwhile, self important elitist Britain, seizing another oppotunity to keep its cheap labour masses in check, lectures this swelling immigrant fed underclass on their need to reduce their carbon footprint- but leave the likes of Prince and Princess Harry alone along with all the rest of the European jet set. As a former maths teacher this does not seem to add up.

Worse still, and the nub of the problem is the massive population upsurge in Africa, the Middle East and Latin America. The majority if not all of the people here, with the exception of their political class -who are also jet setters – live in a religious fantasy world, deriving their world view from a religious tradition beginning with Abraham who claimed to hear God speak from behind a burning bush. For political and thus power mad reasons, that religious seed split into the warring groups of today.

Now we have so many burning bushes from Brazil to Australia, but no fantasy of God will save us in this world. Wars used to keep the population down, maybe World War III is coming and will do the trick. Religion is led and followed by so many hypocrits who don’t even read the texts, so they won’t know that God warned of the ‘fire next time.’ Meanwhile, Attenborough has moderated his language.

It would be racist and a religious hate crime to call for birth control in the old Third World. Attenborough is just part of the PC club now. We must have more growth for more population. Cutting the carbon will solve the problem. No mention that plant life needs carbon and nature needs balance. No, the more the merrier is the message. Build the buildings higher and teh fall out shelters deeper. That will solve the future, and pray thanks to little Greta, the new feminist know it all Messiah and her disciples. Like the police, messiahs start to look like children as we get older. Robert Cook

British Police beat up a suspect who has kneeled before them and suurendered. Posted January 15th 2020

Footage of police officers punching and kicking a burglary suspect after he voluntarily surrenders has prompted the force to refer itself to an independent watchdog.

The CCTV video showed three police vehicles from the Lancashire police pulling up behind a man, identified as 34-year-old Adeel Ashraf, who was walking on a pavement in Accrington.

The man puts both hands in the air and kneels on the ground as five officers exit the vehicles and run towards him. The officers then push the suspect the ground and begin punching and kicking him before handcuffing him.

Another officer is seen holding a police dog back as his colleagues restrain Ashraf.

Ustadh Mohammad Quraishi, a Muslim activist and religious teacher in Blackburn, first posted the video on social media.

He added: “I have now spoken to the eyewitness, the lady who is in the footage watching the police brutality by officers from the Lancashire Police that took place in Accrington.

“Shocked to hear that surrendering victim’s head was repeatedly banged against the curb sustaining a bulging head injury,” he said, citing the witness.

Speaking to The Independent, he said that the video “sends the wrong message” to suspects who surrender.

“It was a shock to see a person who voluntarily surrendered themselves in that manner get beaten up. It sends the wrong message – if you surrender, you’ll get beaten up. It should not have been allowed to happen.”

Lancashire police confirmed the incident took place on 8 January after they received a report of a burglary around 11am in which a Nissan Juke car was stolen from Blackburn.

The stolen car was later seen and pursued by officers, resulting in Ashraf’s arrest which “is what is seen in the footage which has been widely shared”.

“We appreciate the concern that perceptions of the officer actions in this video have caused and we would like to reassure people that the incident is being fully reviewed by our Professional Standards Department,” said the force.

“In the interests of openness and transparency we are also voluntarily referring the incident to the Independent Office for Police Conduct.”

Ashraf has been charged with “aggravated vehicle taking and dangerous driving” and has been “recalled to prison”, police confirmed.

Editorial Comment My response to this story is inevitably influenced by my own ongoing and terrifying experience with the British Police, their bullying and ingrained dishonesty as they pursue their own agenda. Sadly the mainstream media panders to their pathetic egotistical need to be seen and judged as heroes.

It would be unfair to say that there are no good people in the police. I have known a few, my cousin being one of them. However, regardless of gender or race, these are not the ones most likely to be promoted. One only has to look at the two tarnished prime candidates in the last round of promoting a new Metropolitan Police Commissioner. One of them was assured of the job because politicians decided it had to be a female in post.

It would appear to be the case here that the prone individual beaten up by a group of macho moronic Lancashire police officers, had form. That being so is no excuse for the appalling police behaviour, the type of which is not new and has killed before. Much of this usuallyhappens off camera. The officers here did not realise they were being recorded.

I know from experience that the police are a closed self righteous quasi military body with a priority of looking after themselves and social control. Senior officers have incredible perks, high pay and too much power, with little if any accountability. Across the board pay is good with starting rates higher than those for a private soldier.

Again, from experience, I know they feel they should be allowed to act as judge, jury and psychiatrist. In reality, most are robotic morons with their highest level skill in lying and doctoring or witholding evidence. Many have second jobs and have records for dubious sick leave.

More of them, especially in the Civil and Nuclear Police have been judged to be physically unfit. Then there is the issue of their mental health, which this appalling racist attack demonstrates, raising serious questions about the qualities sought by politicians and commanders in the modern police force- the police prefer to be called a service ( sic ) .

For Men to Worry Posted January 15th 2020

For men to Worry January 15^th 2020

The phrase toxic masculinity has become another weapon for feminists and social controllers.  Aylesbury Prison in Buckinghamshire is full of failed young men.  Their failure is not simply personal, they have been failed by the society they have grown up in.

Since Margaret Thatcher and her henchmen and women came to power, pledged to sell of state assets to the rich international elite, at knock down prices, and to make industry leaner and fitter, men have been redundant in large numbers.

As sport cheats know, testosterone is the basis of muscle strength and energy.  Men have more of this, so what happens when there is nowhere for it to go?  Men turn to drink, crime and football- with the latter they can watch international millionaires basically taking the piss with their £180,000 a week pay cheques.

History is all around us, but most folk are too blind, stupid, ignorant or moving too fast to see it. Last Saturday, I drove past the turn to Tolpuddle and the Martyrs museum in Dorset, heading back up country from an early morning run in my then mercifully empty truck.  Who in this sad little self important country knows why Tolpuddle is so significant ?  In this age of diversity and so caring Labour politicians knows who the Lovelace brothers were, or why they were transported to Australia in 1823 ?

Back down in Dorchester, I photographed the life size casting of an old Dray horse in trendy Brewery Square.  The art work, complete with penis and scrotum, cost around £150,000 in a town where young and old men sleep rough.  Its’ purpose is to make reversing a truck in off the busy through road difficult and to remind all of the once thriving brewery.  Working men in this Thomas Hardy country needed a lot of beer to put up with lives less romantic than Hardy ever conjoured up in his rambling novels- which I have read.

Now the square is a place for yummy mummies to take the kids to the Odeon’s latest offerings, or the trendy restaurants all around.  Then there are all the dress shops and fast fashion.  Behind the scenes the rubbish mountains are magnificent with an odour all of their own.  Quite toxic really, but yummy mummies never wonder where it all goes.

Why Labour Lost the General Election Posted January 14th 2020

The arrogant British upper class elites – and their mouthpieces in the mainstream media, do not do cause and effect. Labour did not lose the last British General Election simply because of Corbyn being unpopular or their obvious reluctance to support the Brexit referendum vote of 2016.

Here is an extract from Buzz Feed on Corbyn:

‘Jeremy Corbyn has defended his leadership after his party lost a traditionally Labour seat in a north-of-England by-election.

Labour’s Gill Troughton was defeated by the Conservatives‘ Trudy Harrison by 13,748 votes to 11,601 in the Copeland by-election.

Corbyn, answering questions after a speech on Brexit in London, responded to this question from ITV’s Chris Ship: “Have you at any point this morning looked in the mirror and thought could the problem be me?” with a firm, “No. Next question,” before swiftly moving on.’

What caused the Brexit leave vote is the issue. Ordinary poorly educated underpaid Brits do not fully grasp the vested interersts and corruption of the ever growing European Police State, which Britain’s pseudo Liberal elite have done so much to design and build since joining in 1973.

The British underclass saw over and over again on tv the so called refugees camped out in Sangette, Calais , Northern France, prior to making their illegal no holds barred way into Britain, with all of its hand wringing Liberal welcoming Committees and tax payer funded handouts waiting.

The Tories will not deliver any sort of Brexit worth the name, they dare not seem anti Liberal or as racists. New Labour’s upper class arrogant fools in Parliament will continue to favour the migrant, mainly African/Islamic new voters. They love talking about helping young people so long as they are not indigenous. Ask them how an open door immigration policy helps the poor.

So the desperate nostalgic Brits actually think Brexit will stop this plague of unwanted culturally alien foreign colonists. The non European migrants will keep coming to keep GDP from collapsing and hurting the profits of a globalist elite. Don’t worry, there will be more police to protect diversity.

Race in the UK is a sensitive issue now, which is why there has been such a cover up for the racist rapist child abusing Muslim sex grooming gangs whose victims were all underage white girls – from care or broken white working class communities. Labour’s defence is to insist that white men commit more sex crimes than Asian males- yet where is their evidence….

The key issue of why there are so many young white females vulnerable to grooming gangs is something else Labour and the elite media do not want to talk about. It is due to the absence- or subservient role – of white fathers in the average white family. The cause is the rise of feminism, promotion of female empowerment and the resultant decline of said nuclear family. No mystery as to why Muslims will not fully integrate with the absurd mess and anomie of female dominated suicidal white culture. Charles Close

Magicians Now Posted January 14th 2020

My teenage interest in economics led me into the wider and deeper world of social science.  A fellow A level student suggested I added a fourth A level course of Sociology because it was easy.  I studied the subject from scratch, for six months.  My result was grade B. I read a lot and had a good teacher. Most of my teachers at secondary level were women.  

Like my English teacher, the sociology teacher was exceptional and not infected with feminist self obsession.  Sociology, she explained, was about trying to be objective about the social world and its institutions.

My first brush with feminism was at the University of East Anglia in 1971.  I came from a poor one parent family- my father died as a result of a work accident and medical incompetence when I was 11.  

My fellow undergraduates and university teachers were mostly from privileged backgrounds.  I was a poor diffident boy from a small rural town who’s only travels had been to his parents North London roots and as an athletic club and county athlete.  The most exotic day trips I ever had were to Southend and Great Yarmouth.  The seaside was magical to me,

Magic was the stuff of so much entertainment.  Father Christmas was very real to me. Nowadays so much has changed, but this change has not come from magic.  Sociology purports to explain it all, when in truth sociology, its teachers and other exponents exist to obfuscate events.  

Sociology is feminism on steroids. Its exponents speak as if ex cathedra.  I spent several uncomfortable years as a sociology lecturer and as an A level examiner for Oxford University Examination Board.  Passing and obtaining good grades seemed very much about having the right opinions. Sociology is the psycho babble of social engineering.  Misfits are expendable and will be labelled as having personality disorders.  This labelling process starts as soon as the child is ready for school.

It is a very dangerous situation because the power behind all of this is class interest.  We have a super global economy run by super elites who are in competition in key areas.  They rely on mass stupidity.  In my part of the world, I have never heard so many references to our precious representative democracy as I have in recent years. World War Three is this a distinct possibility.  There is no collective memory of the previous mass carnage of World War One and Two to stop it. A mass demonstration against the second Iraq War was ignored by Blair and his so called ‘modernisers.’  He lied to get that war and we are living with on going consequences.

Elites work on what is expedient for them and rely on mass ignorance and stupidity to keep them safe.  There have never been so many laws to keep Britrish peoples minds and bodies in check.  Princess Meghan expected to play a key role in preaching about sexism and racism as the root of all evil. The idea that the Royals are supposed to say nothing did not appeal, so off she goes with her young Prince to preach from Canada and the U.S.A, a bona fide victim and total distraction serving the politically correct.  Perish the thought that in continuing Princess Diana’s self obsessed work she has given us further proof of the grotesque irrelevance and waste of the British Royal Family.

I expect no benefits from Brexit in any shape or form.  However, the key principle and lesson here is that the elite have moved heaven and earth to prevent the mass of British voters getting what they voted for.  As we see from what is going on in France, treating so called European citizens with contempt and brutality is the norm,  Europe is supposed to be a sheep pen for the multi cultural masses.  To argue with it is a sign of a person’s madness.  The elite are beyond reproach. They are the magicians now. Robert Cook

British Police Institutionally Corrupt Posted January 12th 2020

I was born and grew up in a small north Bucks rural market town. Agriculture was the main industry. Shop work was the next. However, we had a fair sized police station, run by an inspector and sergeant, with a lot of constables with bicycles. There was also a Ford Prefect car painted black, and a one motor cycle cop. These people were well respected. This was the age of Bucks County Constabulary. My mother worked for them as a school crossing patrol lady.

Times changed. Forces were merged. Bucks was swallowed up by the new Thames Valley. The age of the Police National Computer ( PNC ) was born. Bureaucracy, careers and corruption were on their way, as I know from personal experience. And so we have the following :

British Police Routinely Withheld Evidence Exonerating Young Men of Rape

April 8, 2018 MJA Uncategorized 4

Dangerous> Shocking documents have revealed that British police officers are being trained to avoid giving vital evidence that would undermine their criminal cases.

A dossier, seen by The Times of London draws upon reports from 14 focus groups with the police. These focus groups included prosecutors, judges, and a survey of prosecutors. In one section of the report, an anonymous prosecutor said: “In even quite serious cases, officers have admitted to deliberately withholding sensitive material from us and they frequently approach us only a week before trial. Officers are reluctant to investigate a defense or take statements that might assist the defense or undermine our case.”

Another comment, this one from the police, said:

“If you don’t want the defence to see it, then [the evidence] goes on the MG6D.”

The MG6D is a list of sensitive material which the defense team does not have access to. An inspector said that the police “have been trained to put items on there that they do not want disclosed to the defense” whilst another recorded comment was that “officers put undermining material on the MG6D list to hide.”

The revelations come at a time where the CPS is being scrutinized over how some cases are handled. Last year over 900 charges were dropped after police failed to hand over evidence to defense lawyers. 22-year-old student Liam Allan was forced to go to trial for almost two years after being accused with six counts of rape. The case collapsed after it was revealed that the police did not hand over hundreds of text messages that proved his innocence, in which the complainant expressed that she had enjoyed having sex with him.

I know all to well just how true this is. The very moment I dare to discuss my case, involving very senior officers and their abuse of the PNC, I will be arrested again, with this site being closed down. This is the age of Julian Assange and our sinister fake democracy.

The police believe that a restraining order based on their lies can be used to gag me indefinitely. We will see. There is a lot more evidence at hand now, and the British police have been exposed as instutionally dishonest. Thames Valley Police have yet to answer my latest round of questions. Robert Cook

For more on Britain’s corrupt bullying police see Polly Station page on this site. For those who keep asking tech questions, please see my tech section on other sites as I do not have time to deal with every querry just now. I am getting a lot of spam, drug adverts and crap about sex/ porn. The sex stuff is sad, maybe a lot coming from cops who think I will respond to their pathetic sex policing bait. My advice to sick sex mad cops is go visit a morgue or a few more traffic accidents and get real. Also tell your command and control that I think most of them are sick corrupt bullies.

Life Sentence Posted January 10th 2020

It is unusual for the Daily Star to carry, let alone front page a story worth reading. It seems preoccupied with a weird worship of the female body.

The thing most overlooked about the female body is that it exists and is reproduced so that humans can reproduce. The reason it is overlooked is because we, especially males, are not supposed to know that women use their looks for power, calling the shots in the mating game- when they can find time off from career building, putting men down and sniping at other females.

Humans are conceited, believing that a God made them especially, in that God’s own image. The truth is humans created God. God like sex, is used by ruling elites to manipulate the foolish, if not downright stupid masses.

The Greta phenomenon works on the same principle. She embodies a powerful self righteous female image. She talks of ‘the science’- her script writers cognisant of the fact that the masses are ignorant. So the word science overwhelms their minds just as religion does. Heretics are at risk from Draconian hate speech laws.

We are the frogs in the pan of boiling water. The water started out cold, got pleasantly warm, now it is boiling. Humans population has been doubling every fifty years since statistics have been collected and projected back in time..

Life spans have been extended, nature cut back to accommodate human greed and pollution. Forests have gone. Religion has encouraged the poorer ignorant dictator led countries to follow the bible’s primitive adage ‘Go forth and multiply.’ Richer nations have plugged into the consequent mass of cheap labour and stupidity to embelish their elites.

So we come to this ‘boffin’ message, Eat Algae. Red meat is first and foremost a threat to poorer religion obsessed dictatorships who must be allowed to catch up with the ignorant stupid masses of the richer countries- migrating here as their own countries decline further into war, desease and famine as economist Rev Thomas Malthus predicted. Those migrants are the moral icons necessary to the continued enrichment of the global elite who will not be eating algae any time soon. Robert Cook

Donald Duck n’ Cover Posted January 8th 2020

Iran has been a Trump fixation since the get go of his Presidency.  The U.S.A never got over the fall of the pampered British backed Shah.  Nor did their lackey Great Britain, aka the U.K.  World War One and Two started for less cause than what we have now.  

The only thing that stops it is Russia and China have never been good at starting, let alone winning wars.  That sort of enterprise is best left to the Anglo Saxons with their elite well educated leaders and civil servants on both sides of the Atlantic- who don’t care how many are killed on all sides.

But whether or not the situation gets any worse in the Middle East, we can be sure of oil price rises at the expense of the little people in distressed Europe.  At least some people are already making money on this madness.

Here in Europe, Brexit is a convenient distraction from the problems and mass immigration fallout from all those wars, upon the enslaved white underclass.  Britain’s Labour Party of Champagne Socialists are worried about the displaced children that will exist if a real Brexit happens, rather than why there are so many of these and why lower class tax payers should suffer the economic and social cost of allowing endless numbers of them in.  

State broadcaster Channel 4 is running a documentary about the environmental necessity of banning red meat production for the sake of the expanding old Third World religion and ignorance driven overpopulation- which little Greta never mentions.  There are some wonderful new ideas about us lower orders, like downed airmen behind enemy lines, getting our protein from eating insects.

So with all of this in mind, maybe the idea of mad Trump nuking the world will be a happy release, culling the population while the elite bask in their luxury fall out shelters. Robert Cook

Less and Less Posted January 3rd 2020

Less and Less Posted January 3^rd 2020

When I went up to university in 1971, I was one of less than 3% of the population enjoying the privilege. I was a bit older than my posh student contemporaries, though looked much younger.  My delay on entering this cloistered world was due to me leaving school aged 16, and needing to work because my widowed working class mother needed my support.

When I got there, I was told we undergraduates would be learning more and more about less and less. As a student, I worked my 20 weeks a year vacation on buildings sites, learning useful non bookish skills and more about working men.

Today, Britain’s ‘Telegraph’ newspaper ridiculed Britain’s adviser to the Prime Minister, Dominic Cummings for advertising for ‘weirdos and misfits’ to seek top jobs in Britain’s Civil Service to replace the current breed of over privileged patronising elitists that have infested Britain’s decision making class for centuries.

At the same time. The current Wikileaks boss has described Britain’s elitist political and judicial system as corrupt, this ruling out any chance that Wikileaks whistleblower Julian Assange can get a fair trial in this country.  Obviously he will not.  A fair trial would see this heroic and honest journalist immediately discharged, with compensation for his ordeal and lost years.  Of course that will not happen.  

Britain’s elite are self styled protectors of women’s virtue which is why they are outraged that a young woman in Cyprus faces jail for gang rape allegations where there was no evidence.  In Britain the accused men would be suffering long sentences by now.  Thus, Britain’s elite welcomed, and probably conspired with Sweden’s rape proceedings against Assange.  

Women’s groups are already screaming that to let him go free would condone the violation of women.  The argument si always that women- women are a high moral blob in our PC world, a massive energy force for good- tell the truth about rape and everything else.

So n ot fpor ‘women’ to worry about wider issues raised by Assange and his ‘accomplice’ Chelsea Manning.  Not for women to worry about anything because there will always be a man to blame, just like women are screaming blame at Australia’s Scott Morrison for Australia’s bush fires.  For these hectoring self righteous women, life is black and white.  The class system and their self interested rolling wars and war crimes, are of no interest to them.  They are women and must be protected above all others.  Quite funny really.

Not Really Good Enough Posted January 2nd 2020

Not Really Good Enough

Apparently the latest series of ‘The Crown’ on ‘Netflix’ has failed to reach the top ten.  Viewers do not seem to like it.

I cannot speak for the International audience but suspect that the sort of Brits who watch this sort of drama are Royalists – with a few anti Royals and some curious like me.

I thought all episodes were excellent, with those involving Pricess Margaret tragi comic.  This woman was always resentful of playing second fiddle to her rather sober big sister- daddy’s favourite by all accounts.

Feminists would also take issue with the show because the story line shows sympathy for how Prince Charles was prevented from marrying his true love Camilla, just as Edward VIII was forced to abdicate for his, and how Princess Margaret chose Royal status over her lover Group Captain Townsend.

For me, Charles Dance stole the show playing the creepy egotistical interfering Lord Mountbatten of Burma.  His attitude and advice to Charles was simply enjoy all the young women – as he and his nephew Phillip, Charles’s father had. But choose your Princess wisely and for her status and breeding. That was old war horse Mountbatten’s advice to the love struck future king. So wonder about the Princess Diana drama to come.

One can imagine how much devout Royals fear what is to come unless their critics can dampen producers enthusiasms for another series.  So far the Queen has shown more evidence of a brain than she is supposed to.  The men in suits are supposed to write her scripts, as well as those of Prince Charles.  He shocked them all with his investiture speech showing sympathy for Welsh identity.

My only criticism is for stupid continuity errors, like the one where Princess Margaret is off to a Scottish stately home for retreat from more scandal. Met by Rolls Royce and smart deferential chauffeur as she leaves the Royal train behind in a Highlands Station, she is seen looking pensive in the back seat of the luxurous limousine.  

The shot cuts to the rear of the car as it crosses a little bridge.  The number plate is clearly shown.  Then we see rather a different model Rolls Royce sweeping up to the front steps of her friends’ grand home. An entirely different number plate is on show.

Wrong Kong Posted January 2nd 2020

The whole Hong Kong scenario is an outcome of British Imperialism stealing Hong Kong during the Opium Wars.  The two great Communist nations are an outcome of the vile elitist exploitation of the masses, using Marxist ideas.

Capitalism is the issue here.  If the Hong Kong style ‘protests/riots’ were happening in Britain or the U.S they would face the full impact of the law.

Opium was a palliative and source of hallucinations during the nineteenth century.  To Marx religion was the opium of the masses. It is significant that the Western elites, in the name of the diversity con, are ramping up religion.  Laws on hate speech prevent robust comment on that interesting strategy.

Hong Kong ’s tourist trade is at rock bottom, so more money worries for the blood sucking global elite. Britain’s leaders relish talking about Human Rights, but it never stopped them welcoming cheap Chinese made goods – cheap because labour is cheap. Hypocrisy is Britain’s core product from which all else stems.

In Britain, a police officer brazenly caused the death of an innocent bystander at G7 protests in 2008.  A short while before that a student protester got 3 years for throwing a fire extinguisher off a roof.  The missile landed 300 yards from a group of police officers, but it was inferred that there was an intent to cause harm.

In Hong Kong we have seen police officers violently assaulted, but acting with restraint.  We have seen a university lab used as a weapons factory by protesters. A man was even doused in accelerant and set on fire because he dared to disagree with the protesters. To Britain’s elite and elite media, this is all OK.

Apparently it all started GOING WONG IN HONG KONG because the government wanted serious criminals extradited to the mainland for trial. Even after that new law was scrapped, the protests continue, with a ring leader seen meeting with U.S agents in Washington.  Britain is four square behind this, but subtle and deceitful about its motives.  The difference between right and wrong for them is all about the money.

China: Hong Kong riots settled through incentives, not force

Benjamin Chiao, co-author with Nobel Laureate French economist Jean Tirole:

The Hong Kong riots will continue in 2020. The US will continue to give enough incentives to nurture the opposition forces so that Hong Kong can be used as a bargaining chip in US-China relations.

The intermediate goals for the rioters are to undermine the credibility of the pro-establishment camp and the government so that the pan-democratic party will win majority seats of the upcoming legislative council election and the chief executive election.

Even if Beijing fails to see the most desirable candidate elected, it will not march in the People’s Liberation Army, especially because not all protesters are rioters. In fact, Beijing could simply not appoint the elected candidate as a last resort. Beijing will also need to win back the hearts of all protesters by giving favorable policies in the Greater Bay Area. Hong Kong youngsters will find it too attractive to turn down such offers. The youngsters will have no choice as Hong Kong will continue into the second year of recession, the worst in recent decades. They will then find the people across the Shenzhen River are also blood and flesh, different from what the Western media depicts.

BBC Big Brother Calling Posted January ist 2020

BBC  Big Brother Calling

BBC Radio 4 used to confine its political correctness and feminism to the news and ‘Woman’s Hour.’  But now it is just non stop on message, overwhelmingly fronted by posh women.  There are men, also of the same class.  BBC so called ‘new comedy’ is all about poking fun at the under class.

At the end of last week and the last two days, we had little Greta talking to David Attenborough about climate change.  Twenty years ago, his Reith lectures asserted that human overpopulation was the doom machine.  

Not a word about that now because that growth is coming from religious mad backward Indian sub continent, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America.  As those areas plunge further into reproductive chaos, war and disease, there is a population outflow welcomed by self styled ‘liberals’ – and hated so much by the white under class it has been necessary to stoke up the gender war as a diversion and create new heinous hate crimes to keep the inevitable far right in check.

So disaffection and environmental problems are ubiquitous, while the elite are in denial.  

I heard the new youngest female MP, in Britain, telling a fawning BBC man on ‘World at One’ that politics is broken and she- aged 23- wants to help fix it by fighting sexism, racism and promoting diversity.  Politics is not broken in this country, but the elite con is.  Never mind, BIG BROTHER BBC is calling rather like Lord Haw Haw did for Germany during World War Two. That didn’t end well either.  Robert Cook

Happy New Fear Posted January 1st 2020

Christmas is now past, the new year has begun.  The Sydney authorities caused offence to the great and good by wanting a traditional fireworks welcome to the New Year. The country has rather too many fireworks at present.

Meanwhile, in Britain, creepy Boris Johnson usurped the Queen’s role with a speech of his own.  He promises a decade of ‘prosperity and opportunity’, in a country full of record homelessness, slave wages, high unemployment, racial tensions, gender war, a booming arms industry, calls for more police to fight an ever expanding world of defined crime, record family breakdown, falling educational standards, and- above all- fear of terrorists and the Russians.

So ‘Happy New Fear’ to all the real people who might stumble on this very obscure officially hated little website.

Reader Comments January 1st 2020

I am aware that many comments sent to this site are versions of the same thing over and over again, suggesting spam or malevolence. I am also aware that Google have responded to complaints- possibly from authorities like the British Police and NHS GIC who are severely criticised on this site- by making this site almost invisible in Britain.

Because of this, it is important that anyone making comments on this site must appear to be a person or persons with some clue to proving this. Mahcine like comments will be deleted.

I am also aware that there are many sending comments of a lewd sexual nature. while others seek to advertise dubious medicines. These comments are not acceptable.

The fact that my editorial page is now inaccessible due to apparrent technical problems, appears to be a response from gatekeepers, possibly including the police, who do not like what is posted. It has been closed to me since my post on the possibility that women lie about rape.

Consequently, assuming the police do not raid again, arrest me and close this down, the site will need expert maintenance and reconstruction later this month.

Meanwhile, please do not post pornographic comments which are boring and potentially illegal. They certainly have no place here. If you have an incessant need to comment about sex, please see a psychiatrist because you are a moron. The police like morons because they are so easy to jail. For all I know, they are on here trying to get me to talk about sex. Also, no more drug adverts, and try to cound like you are a person.

Happy New Year Robert Cook

On the road to nowhere Posted December 29th 2019

This year Boris Johnson and Labour leader J Corbyn jumped on the Queen’s Christmas message bandwagon.  The Queen’s message was bland as usual. She never mentioned Andrew or other definitive ludicrous Royals like Harry and sulky Meghan.

Corbyn reckons he watches the Queen on Christmas morning which is all the evidence one needs that he is delusional- if he actually believes it, but more likely he  is just another lying politician.

My recent absence from this little website is because I have been on the road rather a lot, looking at bits of England through the wind shield of a truck.  The rain at least keeps the frost and ice away.  Still I fear much worse to come.  

Many in Little small minded Britain do not grasp the simple idea that a melting polar ice cap dilutes the salt water of the North Atlantic, causing the warming Gulf Stream to fall back, making us colder;

Climate change is real, but little Greta and the climate change warriors are a distraction.  The elite and their police foot soldiers do not permit protests unless they serve their own purposes.

On Friday , December 27^th, morning, about 5.30 a.m, I pulled in to London’s New Covent Garden at Nine Elms.  In the age of steam railways it was the Southern Railways locomotive depot.  I used to live down the road from Nine Elms, often passing it on my bicycle.  

Goodness me, how the area has changed over the last decade.  Capitalism has paid for some marvellous glittering tower blocks in a city with record levels of crime and homelessness.

I left old London Town heading for the port of Newhaven on the south coast.  It was an easy run down on the A3, heading for Portsmouth- where I also used to live- turning off for Dorking, then the M25 and M23.  Not too bad so far,  Unloaded and on a break by 10.15 then back up west on the A27, M23, and then the hell of the M25 London orbital ring road.  

Seven hours later, after abandoning the M40 at Oxford services, and another 45 minute break, I arrived back at the depot.  The roads had been so full of cars.  Does nobody listen to Greta?  Did these people really have to be on the road? Robert Cook

The Music Stops Posted December 25th 2019

My late father was a music lover, though how he found time for it is beyond me. I know so little about him because he died when I was 11, after a long time in hospital. Back in the late 1950s and early 60s he used to cycle- in all weathers- ten miles to the brickyard as a lorry driver, often not getting home before six o’clock to start again at 3 a.m in the morning. He must have been very tired when he didn’t see the stack of bricks falling on him.

His years in the army after hardships growing up in then miserable North London, culminating in Dunkirk 1940, obviosuly toughned him up. He seemed so old when he died, aged 41. I was there at the hospital the day he died, hearing his death rattle.

Before the war he played accordion. When I was a child he built himself a stereophonic radiogramme, which I still have. Those were the days when boys left school early, learning to use their hands. His woodworking skills obviously came from his mater craftsman father. The elctronics were his peculiar interest which he studied and handed down to me.

When I was ten he planned to build a workshop, showing me all the tools he had, saying ‘One day son these will all be yours.’ Sadly the gypsies cut through my fence and into my workshop, stealing a lot of them. The police told me there was nothing they could do about it, and that I should never get in the way of robbers or harm them.

My mother used to talk about dancing to the big bands during the war, but she never shared my dad’s love of music, or mine or my sister’s taste. My father, like me enjoyed a wide range of music, including Mario Lanza, classical and opera. I did too, but folk music was my thing.

When Dylan and Neiil Young came along I was in heaven. I liked the story telling and poignancy. when the love of my life, Helen, dumped me, I said : ‘So it’s all over now baby blue.’ She looked at me with contempt, replying : ‘You and your songs.’

As we get older, our tastes tend to remain in the past where our youth was. I can analyse techno, grunge and all that stuff. I used to teach kids to play guitar. But after some very serious issues focusing around police harassment, my mother’s very sad death and stuff I can not safely talk about at the moment, I have absolutely no interest in music.

I stopped practising, teaching and perfroming 12 years ago. Music has no meaning for me anymore. I could inspire no student as I used to.

Years ago I used to practice guitar piano and violin for hours. I will never teach or even play again. Music is so close to our spirit. When one’s spirit is attacked, as mine has been by the lying Police State threatening to jail me telling and writing the truth, the music stops.

Another Story Posted December 25th 2019

Another Story  December 25^th 2019

Ms Caroline Flack is hostess of a particularly tacky TV show called ‘Love Island’.  The sub text is sex, so Ms Flack displays the show’s desired image.  Predominantly working class ignorant young people are taken to an exotic foreign location where they play mind games with each other, contestants voted off each week by equally stupid viewers.  

The winners are lined up for so called reality TV celebrity status, going on to endorse garbage products.  It is a show about lifestyle and an indictment of Britain’s moron culture.

The British have a very interesting hypocritical attitude to sex.  They think they invented a sexual revolution in the 1960s. in fact they opened the door to feminism and man bashing.  The movement’s icons were Germaine Greer, Fay Weldon and an old student contemporary of mine, Rosie Boycott.  To my knowledge only one of them had children.  Single mother Weldon’s son ended up a drug addict and was jailed.

Modern upper middle class women don’t want the traditional female role, so exploit lower order women with their divisive message.  Not surprising there are so many messed up young men queing up fr this stupid TV series.  One young male contestant had severe withdrawal symptoms when the show ended.  He killed himself.  Young male drug, drink addicts and suicides are becoming normalised.

The Caroline Flack story is emblematic and symptomatic of the way Britain – which prides itself as a world leader in popular culture – is going.  Forty plus Flack was trawling through her young boyfriends phone records while he slept.

She found he had been texting a 60 plus granny love rival. Incensed she entered the bedroom to beat her love cheat over the head with a heavy table lamp. She could have killed him.  His injuries were so bad, an ambulance was called and the police were involved.  Obviously mainstream media will say it was his fault for cheating on the rich middle aged beauty.

Now on bail, Flack cannot spend Christmas with her love interest, even though he does not want to press charges.  It is no wonder that statistics show fewer men being victims of domestic violence.

My ex wife admitted hitting me on four occasions that she could remember. One occasion involved her cornering me with a wine glass which she had broken during one of her rages. The police refused to investigate, even though she admitted the offences. I once suggested that whenever I wanted something or expressed an opinion she argued aggressively.  She replied ; ‘ I feel I have to challenge you.’

One should of course be interested in the phenomenon of young men favouring much older women. My ex wife was nine years younger than me. That is another story.  Robert Cook

Worst of Ways Posted December 23rd 2019

Worst of Ways

Rather busy on the road just now. More posts soon. I was in Salisbury at 5 am this morning.  No sign of Russians.  Christmas lights looking nice, still cold with icy rain.

Wondered where the Skirpals are now.  Then off I had to go to Dorchester and Poole.  Lots of crazy traffic and big jam on the M4O when I crossed over the bridge at Bicester on my way back to the depot.  So much traffic the rescue fire engine could not get down on to the motorway.

All this stuff about Britain’s good will and peace on earth makes me laugh.  This country is not about ‘Me too’, it is about me first.  That is why the most stupid women love feminism.  

As if this country doesn’t have enough problems, the FA are investigating racism in football because a fan made monkey noises after a Black German Chelsea footballer over reacted to a South Korean Tottenham player’s foul: so the Spurs player would be sent off.  This country is very funny in the worst of ways- just like our roads. Happy festive season! Robert Cook.

Foreign Country Posted December 22nd 2019

The world Welsh, historically meant ‘foreigner. William the Conqueor commissioned a number of castles to keep the local Ancient Britains down. They had a relatively easier time under the Anglo Saxons who were not much interested in Wales. they preferred their ‘Angleland’ which transitioned into ‘England.’ But there was a lot of fighting, even before the iron hand of the Normans came crashing down.

And so, with all of this in mind, it was very cold on Mermaid Quay on Cardiff Bay when I arrived there yesterday at 5 a.m. Raining and damp, but still an inspiring place to be.

Cardiff is the national capital and county town of Glamorgan. Until Roman conquest, Cardiff was part of the territory of an iron age tribe called Silures that flourished Their territory included the areas that would become known as Breconshire, Monmouthshire and Glamorgan.  

The local River Taff, where the Romans built their first settlement, is the origin of the Welsh peoples’ nickname ‘Taffy.’  As said, the word Welsh’ means foreigner and we still use the non PC phrase ‘to welsh on a deal,; 

Norman invader and King William the Conqueror started his slaves building the castle keep in 1081. It was within the walls of the old Roman fort. Cardiff Castle has been at the heart of the city ever since. The castle was substantially altered and extended during the Victorian period by John Crichton-Stuart and the architect William Burges. Original Roman work can, however, still be distinguished in the wall facings.

It is still of relatively small population of under 400,000 but has been developing and modernising during recent decades, notably as home to the devolved Welsh National Assembly. The wider urban area has a population of 479,000 nd it is the most popular tourist destination in Wales. The BBC have a stronghold there, even using the city as a location for filming the revived ‘Dr Who’ series.

Manchester Crime and Government Posted December 20th

Before George and Robert Stephenson’s railway was extended to Manchester, the city- a mere village at the start of the Industrial Revolution, was far away from us southerners.  The horrible lingering dampness of this place in the Pennines proved very suitable to the cotton spinning factories on which the revolution thrived.

After the Napoleonic Wars- when the landowning classes thrived thanks to the punitive corn laws, causing hunger and misery for the labouring classes- the self appointed hero of Waterloo, Wellington ,became Tory Prime Minister by choice of this elite.  

The Duke of Wellinngton, whose home address was Number 1 , London, thought it fair to send the militia to shoot people protesting against high corn prices due to a ban on cheaper imports.  That was the Peterloo Massacre at St Petersfields Manchester.  

It was not just the Irish starving at the time, but they were brought over to keep labour costs low, and profits high.  Manchester was the centre of all this, so important that a canal was eventually dug out to the Atlantic Port of Liverpool- the Manchester Ship Canal.

The first time I ever read the word Manchester was a six year old reading where my favourite Co-op fig roll biscuits were made.  The Co-op started in Rochdale Lancashire, near Manchester, as a workers combine to ensure good cheap food rather than the expensive adulterated rubbish produced by the Capitalist classes for the lower orders.

The next time I heard of Manchester I was still a boy, watching the new soap opera ‘Coronation St’ set in a backstreet of Manchester terraced houses.  I watched it at a friend’s birthday party in 1960.  There were only three of us at the party, running out of amusements we sat down to watch it on a black and white TV.  

My friend’s home was also in a terrace, so was mine.  We also had a black and white TV.  The set was big, the screen quite small.  It as near our front room window, a window on the world and a window on the street, next to each other.  The road was a main route to London, always busy.  So was the pavement, bustling with busy body women, shrieking children and stoic men- their haven being the pub just up the road at the bottom of the school hill.

Much of life was black and white in those days. We all knew our place.  The illusion of Britain’s Imperial greatness lurked like a wounded monster, caught on newsreels reporting in denial.  Then came the illusion of the 1960s, places like Manchester were losing their terraces, high rise reservations for the surplus working classes grew like weeds from the rubble.  Bright young northerner headed south for fame and fortune.  And so we have what we have today.

It took me nearly four hour to get there in my truck limited to 55 mph for economy.  A chunk of the motorway near Stafford wasis being converted to what they call SMART motorway, which means getting rid of the hard shoulder refuge.  This was another great David Cameron idea to improve traffic flow on the cheap, to hell with actual safety.

Trucking through Manchester, I saw remnants of the old city, and gaudy emblems of the new.  It is what it is.  This is the Northern Powerhouse.  The roads were noticeably quiet, making my job much easier.  That is always a good thing for me.  Job done, back I went, down to the not so sunny south where the rich folk, and my new Tory MP are pledged to block the HS2 rail project because they like having a nice view, peace, quiet, security etc, all paid for and provided at the expense of the low order masses.  The spirit of Peterloo lives on in diverse Britain, which is about as diverse in reality as it was in the nineteenth century.  Divide and rule is the key to successful crime and government.

No evidence that people who have survived coronavirus have immunity, says World Health Organisation April 18th 2020

There is currently no evidence to support the belief that people who have recovered from coronavirus then have immunity, the World Health Organisation has said.

Senior WHO epidemiologists warned despite the hopes governments across the world have piled on antibody tests, there is no proof those who have been infected cannot be infected again.

The British Government has bought 3.5 million serology tests, which measure levels of antibodies in blood plasma, even though they are not definitive of growing levels of herd immunity.

Many tests being developed are pin-prick blood tests similar to widely used instant HIV tests and measure for raised levels of the antibodies the body uses to fight the virus.

Speaking at a press conference in Geneva, Dr Maria van Kerkhove said: “There are a lot of countries that are suggesting using rapid diagnostic serological tests to be able to capture what they think will be a measure of immunity.

Antibody tests may be ineffective at showing if a patient is immune to the virus or for how long antibodies might give protection

“Right now, we have no evidence that the use of a serological test can show that an individual has immunity or is protected from reinfection.”

She added: “These antibody tests will be able to measure that level of seroprevalence – that level of antibodies but that does not mean that somebody with antibodies means that they are immune.”

Dr van Kerkhove said it was “a good thing” that so many tests are being developed.

But she cautioned: “We need to ensure that they are validated so that we know what they say they attempt to measure they are actually measuring.”

Her colleague Dr Michael Ryan said the antibody tests also raised ethical questions.

“There are serious ethical issues around the use of such an approach and we need to address it very carefully, we also need to look at the length of protection that antibodies might give,” he said.

“You might have someone who believes they are seropositive (have been infected) and protected in a situation where they may be exposed and in fact they are susceptible to the disease.”

Dr Ryan said the tests had to be used as part of a coherent public health policy.

Comment WHO DO WHO THINK THEY ARE ?

The establishment love the word evidence as much as the word science. When the British police want to convict someone, they look for evidence. When they can’t find it, they fake it. When prosecutions fail they are never exposed as liars and crooks because the system’s elite says it isn’t in the public interests. They just say they failed to convict because there was a lack of evidence.

We see the same mentality here with the WHO declaring there is no evidence that having recovered from COVID 19 means you can’t get it again, even though catching things is the only relaible route to long term immunity. They want to punish the west.

The only way to test for evidence would be to reinfect someone who has recovered. Interestingly one is not allowed to say there is no evidence that lockdown works. This is the Catch 22. If numbers drop, lockdown is working and must continue. If numbers go up, lockdown is working and we need more.

In Britain, the hocus pocus is about shielding the truth about our appalling very expensive NHS and vile money grabbing care homes by pandering to and clapping the workers. With the WHO, it is about looking after the diesease ridden corrupt religion obsessed capitalist exploited over populated Third World dictatorships and Anglo U.S puppet regimes.

The U.S funded WHO palliative takes the view that it is time to shut down the greedy west and make us pay by reaching down to their level of ongoing dictatorships, religious stupidity poverty, widespread disesase and famine.. They see no blame or prospect anywhere else.

Their well paid mouthpieces, be they doctors, feminists, anti racists or not, have an agenda way beyond fighting Corona. This situation is going to get so much worse, all the more so because a huge chunk of Third World population is already in Europe and the U.S as a result of the mindless greed of the global elite who have brought this upon the world -as they did withtwo previous world wars and mass death, which our current leaders wish now to glorify as examples for our future..

Pressaging Real Big Problems To Come April 18th 2020

Pressaging Real Big Problems To Come April 18th 2020

The Bank of England governor says the British economy may be heading for its worst three months since comparable records began, with a 35% plunge in GDP “not implausible” in this quarter.

In a conference call with reporters, Andrew Bailey said high frequency data monitored by the Bank suggested the scenario published by the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) earlier this week, sketching out an unprecedented collapse in GDP in the second quarter, was “quite within the grounds of possibility”.

Referring to the OBR’s forecast for a 35% contraction, he said: “I don’t think there’s anything implausible about a second quarter contraction of that nature.
“If you look at the decline in spending coming through on credit cards: that’s pretty high frequency and there’s a big drop-off in activity.
“Housing market activity has dropped to basically nothing.
“We are seeing numbers for Universal Credit coming through and survey evidence for household spending, for employment on firms on no of staff furloughed.

Segmentation April 18th 2020

The nation would be “segmented” into different risk groups allowing young healthy adults to return to work while the most vulnerable remained shielded under plans being considered by the government’s scientific advisers.

About 1.5 million people deemed to be most in danger if they caught the coronavirus would be told to continue self-isolating, even from close family they were living with. A wider group of older or otherwise at-risk adults could also be told to continue with lockdown restrictions for much longer.

This would allow younger people to play a part in restarting the economy and perhaps gain some level of general population immunity that would help to protect older people until a vaccine arrived.

“We have a whole range of data on the internet too – something we built in the process of preparing to monitor a hard Brexit.
“Look at all that stuff and it’s showing a big drop in activity.”
The comments come amid growing concern about the impact on the UK economy from the lockdown measures to control the virus.
And while the OBR’s scenario assumed the economy would bounce back completely from the initial economic crash, Mr Bailey said the Bank may not be quite as optimistic.
“That’s one of the judgements the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) will have to go through,” he said.
“It’s what the economists call hysteresis – if the level of unemployment and business failure will be such that there will be scarring effects. The MPC will set out its view very clearly on that in [its forthcoming forecasts].”
Mr Bailey, who until becoming governor of the Bank was in charge of the Financial Conduct Authority, also acknowledged that there had been problems with the Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme – the scheme set up by the Treasury which involves guaranteed loans to small businesses.
So far just over a billion pounds has been lent through the scheme, compared with seven times that in Germany and many hundreds of times that in the United States.
Mr Bailey said the scheme had taken longer to get into full operation than expected.
“Banks, notwithstanding the stress they are working under now, have to put their backs into it and get on with it,” he said.
“I agree it does have to be tackled because otherwise we are going to destroy people’s livelihoods or get scarring of the economy.”

Comment Science Tells Us Nothing ? April 18th 2020

Politicians love and rely on the phrase ‘The Science Tells Us’. It is about blinding and frighetning ordinary people with science. It is a weapon in the hands of unscrupulous often stupid, always self interested , politicians.

Science actually tells us nothing. It is the people who use and abuse it who tell us what they want us to know, fear or admire. It is not truth in itself. It works withing socially agreed paradigms. Top scientists, like Neil Ferguson are vain cademics who do not like their paradigms challenged.

Many years ago, while a post graduate student at London University, I attended the annual science banquet at Fergusons Imperial College. Always conscious of hygiene, I did not like the bit where a very large pitcher of some sort of punch was passed around the tables. We all had to take a big sip, and say some stupid word that I have forgotten. I thought of all the germs that must have been on it when it got to my turn. Back then, scientists were firm believers in building immunity and ‘eating a peck of dirt before you die.’ So I survived this and so many other germs and illnesses.

Obviously breast feeding is now outre in the age of women’s lib. Many years ago, I read a research paper with evidence and conclusions that breast feeding protected mothers from breast cancer. That was never widely publicised, because it was the wrong conclusion based on unacceptable research. Firms making breast milk subsitute had to be kept in business. To hell with working class babies getting their mother’s anti bodies and immunity. Women had to go to work and be equally exploited As I said, science is not inherently about publicising the truth.

I used to teach science and maths. I also worked in an industrial laboratory developing and testing products. Science is primarily a methodology used to experiment , as a basis for prediction either based on theory or outcomes of experiments- in relation to assumed variables. If key variables, like race, age, preexisting conditions and poverty are omitted from an experiment, then you get the result you want on Covid 19. if engineering aircraft and bridges etc worked that way, many thousands woul die or be injured.

But exploiting and bombing the Third World with all itscheap labour and ignorance, then importing the surplus and displaced population, with its consequences for the poorly equiped poorly trained National Health Service, must be left out of the Corona equation cum analyis and conclusions. Hence no obvious end to Lockdown, and the abuse of the politicians phrase ‘The Science tells us.’ Just keep the poorly educated masses scared of dying and socilally distanced to stop them talking to each other. Money well spent by the ruling elite, don’t you know ?

If one is superficial enough to believe that this virus is not a biological weapon, then one should at least understand that there is no substantive data to support this draconian lockdown, only grounds for reasonable precautions. Otherwise, one does not have to be much of a scientist to believe that the social and economic consequences of this lockdown are already pretty appalling and set to get much worse.

If the powers know that this virus is a weapon of war, then the same rule applies. They must know why and how the prediction is for constant mutations- three already. Lockdowns and vaccines are not a scientific answer to that. Lockdown is already producing related deaths and Covid 19 stats are being manipulated.

I was lucky to be born just after World War Two, when there had been lessons learned for the hopefull future. It was the age of full grants when I went up to university. It was an elitist system, so the challenge of getting in was much greater than now. Thatcher opened them up to all in sundry to disguise unempoyment and the demise of apprenticeships. She was not a generous person, so she also trapped stdents with hefty loans. This was to narrow minds and get them on the Capitalist’s treadmill.

Universities proliferated as factories churning out students like grommets, not thinkers. There was only one way of thinking in Thatcher’s new Nazi world. So here we have it, ‘The Science.’ Certainly, the science of social engineering is working well. Long ago, the reforming Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli wrote in one of his books, I think it was ‘Two Nations’ : “To be cosncious that you are ignorant is a great step to knowledge.” No such steps nowadays, we must all know our place and stay there- ‘Stay Safe’, stay in your cave or shop doorway, if you are one of the growing homeless and can find a shop doorway..

Day of Reckoning April 17^th 2020

ceince ells We people of this world are in the hands of some very dangerous people, on all sides.  The Russians have already accused the U.S of unleashing the Corona Virus as a bio weapon in their war on China.  Why the U.S and parent Britain have such issues with China is puzzling because they do so much trade with them, taking advantage of low prices facilitated by China’s mass of cheap labour.

Now U.S intelligence has leaked that they believe the virus was a weapon let leak from the Wuhan laboratory as a weapon against them.  The important thing here is not which side unleashed it, but that there is agreement that it was designed as a weapon.  

That would explain the panic, and the elites on all sides being so certain it is a weapon. It would explain why it has mutated three times already, why the elites say anti bodies cannot build up to fight it, and why they are certain it is a three phase infection.  It would explain all the panic headlines along with World War Two style speeches and headlines.

However, as I have said before, some of us are more in it than others.  Very few upper and upper middle class people have the virus infection. Some have suggested this is a punishment for Britain and Brexit, a plot to save Europe from losing British money.  I have even heard talk that Boris Johnson could have been deliberately poisoned with the virus.  There is certainly a lot f eager talk that society will have to change drastically, with social distancing becoming normal for the foreseeable future.  If that happens, the consequences for Britain and the world’s masses will be hideous.  However, the elite, calling the shots in the name of democracy will be protected as they were hen millions were slaughtered  in tow previous world wars.  

A lot of drivel is being dredged up about those good old days.  The then plain Winston Churchill sacked his army commander Gort, for refusing to sacrifice his badly equipped troops at Dunkirk. The same man sacrificed the ANZACS during World War One.  He was an orator, words mesmerised by cloaked a dark reality.  He once said that Britain didn’t have enemies. It had business interests, while his son said ‘Britain built and Empire on the cheap.’  

Dunkirk was a disaster.  The NHS has been a disaster for years.  Old Labour never had a decent majority after Atlee, Thatcher decimated it, bringing in cut throat business leaders, a massive bureaucracy, selling off the best bits, feeding fat cat consultants and running nurses into the ground. Blair, Brown and New Labour kept up the good work, raising debts through the private finance initiative.  Cleaning services were sold off, MRSA and Cdifficile killed my mother.  Flattering the nurses is more Churchillian bull=hit.  Lockdown is an Ostrich response.  

At this rate things can only get much worse, at home and abroad.  The NHS is top heavy with managers and PR mouthpieces.  The government has a vested interest in spin.  Corona virus infections and related deaths are exaggerated, and they occur mainly in high density areas, with high demands related to mass immigration form poor countries. like London, where health workers are more at risk because of run down facilities and resources – with am obvious disaster predicted for years/  MRSA and c difficile were just the start of it.  What sort of idiot in charge would not have guessed this day of reckoning would come ?  Robert Cook

Extraordinary Con April 17th 2020

It found that fatalities were highest among the old, those with underlying health conditions and men.

England and Wales have so far recorded more than 12,000 deaths in hospital from the coronavirus.

But official data has shown the true death toll is far higher when deaths in the community – such as care homes – are included.

The analysis of all deaths registered so far in March found that eight per cent involved coronavirus, making it the third biggest killer – after dementia and coronary heart disease.

Comment ‘Stay Safe’

During the 1960s, the daily death rate in the U.K has stabilised around an average of just under 1800. Before and obvioulsy during World War Two it was much higher. The National Health Services, along with the rest of the welfare state and improved education, led to further drastic reductions.

In more recent years, health and safety has played its part. Along the way, diet was improving. However, we are now in the age of fast living and fast food, so that aspect of living is now subject to question, with diabetes, obesity, and lung disease exacerbated by more people smokiing. The nuclear family is in demise, more mothers are at work, with consequent decline in traditional family roles, role models and care.

This is the context against which the so called corona virus needs to be understood. Officialdom’s so called experts, led by Neil Ferguson are being discredited by better qualified experts at Oxford and Cambridge University. You have to dig deep to find what they are saying. In layman’s terms it is quite simply letting people catch it, then they build up anti bodies, otherwise it will be with us all the time. If the current response continues much longer, the social and economic damage will be overwhelming.

I will be 70 in a few months time. When I was a boy, people my age now were worn out, crippled with arthritis, walking with sticks. Men like my ex army NCO father Ted Cook, died young. He was 41. he was ill for a very long time. We lived in a very cold damp draughty little house with an outside toilet. Our indoor toilet was a bucket on the landing. Life was hard and stressful for those of us growing up in the lower working classes.

My father died on a terminal ward in Aylesbury. We visited him every day for nine months. I got used to hearing men dying on that ward, the haunting sound of their death rattle. Many of them were heavy smokers. I was 11 years old when my father’s turn to die came one autumn Saurday afternoon. I recall my mother saying, after she looked at his body : “He looked so young, all the years of wear and worry have left his face.”

This early experience of other people dying infuenced my attitude to life, my country and the world around me. I no longer wanted to be a fighter pilot killing the government’s list of enemies. After working in a butchers shop and on a farm, I went to a college of further education, where I was encouraged by some brilliant tutors to go on to university, just as my school English and French teacher, Mrs Horner had advised.

In thise days univerities were largely the domain of the privileged upper middle classes. Only 3% of the population gained places. My contemporaries were laregly fake rebels, drug taking, dressing as hippies, talking peace and love. When graduation came, the men’s long hair went, the posh parents arrived. The hats and gowns were donned, and pictures posed for. Good well paid careeers or post grad places awaited them. I turned down a research place at Stockholm University and went to work on a building site- then the council highway repair lorries and many other ‘real world jobs’. I wanted to have something worth writing about, writing was my ambition.

Now my contemporaries are old like me, whingeing for the lockdown to go on, so they can stay alive, sucking blood from the young lower classes. They must continue to have their pleasures, their cruises, plastic surgery, viagra, cocaine and all the rest. They have their wealth, fat pensions along with so much else. They want to live forever and don’t mind wrecking the ecomony and society so they can all ‘Stay Safe.’ Robert Cook

Hidden Agenda ? April 16th 2020

The Government is today set to extend the coronavirus lockdown for another three weeks amid fresh warnings it is too soon to start easing the restrictions.
Ministers are expected to agree a further three weeks of social distancing controls, amid signs the Covid-19 epidemic in the UK is beginning to peak.
Downing Street has said the three-week review of the stay-at-home orders will go ahead as planned in line with the coronavirus legislation.
However, ministers and officials have repeatedly made clear that there is no prospect of any imminent relaxation.

And health minister Nadine Dorries suggested the stay-at-home orders may not be lifted until a vaccine is found, which experts say could take up to 18 months.
Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab, who is standing in for Boris Johnson as he continues to recuperate from the disease, will chair a meeting of the Cabinet on Thursday morning.
It is expected that ministers will be briefed on the latest situation by the Government’s chief scientific adviser Sir Patrick Vallance.
Mr Raab will then lead a meeting of the Cobra civil contingencies committee when it is expected that the extension of the lockdown will be formally approved.

Speaking at Downing Street on Wednesday, Health Secretary Matt Hancock said there could be no “let up” in the efforts to curb the spread of the virus.

“We cannot let go of the hard work that has been done so far,” he said.
“This shared sacrifice is starting to work but we will not lift these measures until it is safe to do so.”

Comment

The timing is very interesting. So is the draconian response. Governments and their police will never surrender new powers. Life is so much easier now for all of them. To hell with the economy and liitle people. Alleged criminals and dissneters can just be put on remand in britain’s vile jails.

Brexit will stall and fade because Europe needs British money and law makers to deal with its collective social problems. It is also a handy situation to undermine Trump in the U.S elections because Britain has big interests in a Democrat victory and its elite supports their dreadful foreign policy, attacking Russia and exploiting the Third World. Imagine what all this money lost and wasted on lockdown could have down for world poverty, the root of the problem. The hidden agenda should be obvious. Robert Cook

Ian Harrison says he is quietly being driven crazy in his small hostel room

He has been sectioned several times, diagnosed as bipolar and spent last Christmas in hospital after taking an overdose.

“Living in lockdown in a hostel in a room, it’s not helping because you’ve got time to think,” he says.

“And you’re thinking a thousand things at the same time and it drives you crazy – it literally drives you crazy.”

There are 19 people living in Ian’s hostel, which has had to close off the main TV room to avoid social contact between the residents, leaving them more trapped in their box-like rooms.

in west London.

The 30-year-old’s life was chaotic before the coronavirus lockdown.

For most of the last 10 years, he has lived either in hostels or on the streets.

Although Ian points out everyone still uses the same bathroom and kitchen.

He says he doesn’t like watching TV, but he’d like one now, “just for company”.

“Life is pretty much being in a room – a square room – for 24 hours a day,” he says.

“It just affects your mental health. I know everyone is struggling, but I used to go to the gym twice a day to help my mental health and be in a routine, and now that can’t happen.”

Comment Our Ruling Elite are greedy, vile and dishonest. They do not care about poor people, they create and exploit poverty -and they go to church, it is sickening.

Deliberately Misleading April 15th 2020

The number of people who have died in the UK after testing positive for coronavirus has jumped by 778.

The figures mean a total of 12,107 people have died in hospital after testing positive for coronavirus in the UK as of 5pm on Monday, the Department of Health said.

NHS England announced 744 new deaths, bringing the total number of confirmed reported deaths in hospitals in England to 11,005.

Meanwhile, Public Health Wales said the number of deaths in the country had reached 403, a rise of 19, and First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said the death toll in Scotland had risen by 40.

Northern Ireland announced a further 10 deaths on Tuesday.

Of the 744 new deaths announced by NHS England, 122 occurred on April 13, 319 on April 12 and 132 occurred on April 11.

The figures released by NHS England show the dates of every coronavirus-related death in hospitals in England and can include deaths that took place several days or weeks ago to allow for the time it takes for deaths to be confirmed.

According to the data, the highest number of hospital deaths occurring in a single day – 750 – happened on Wednesday, April 8.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) also revealed today that more than one in five deaths recorded in England and Wales are now linked to the coronavirus.

Covid-19 was mentioned on 3,475 death certificates in the week ending April 3, including hospital, care home and community deaths.

Comment Faking the Incompetent NHS out to be heroes April 15th 2020

The government are aware that there is a brewing mental health crisis in the U.K . along with starvation, massive rise in unemployment, along with hundreds of cancelled operations.

These same figures are trotted out daily, with key phrases like Covid related and probably Covid, and cover a longer period passed off as a daily increase. And in any case, there is no evidence lockdown works for the masses, it ignores underlying problems, and the authorities have dug themselves into a hole.

It is great for bloated power mad police chiefs, takes attention off their institutional corrupti and wider incompetence. They abuse the powers they have, and want more.

Our NHS is appalling, so its inability to cope is turned into a another blustering Dunkirk style morale boosting cover up. Theiir incomptence and dirty hospitals could reasonably be said to have killed my parents, using the criteria of Covid. The NHS has done me great harm, and along with police have probably locked up my youngest son – see Police State Britain page. Like the police, the NHS are unaccounatble, and Covid 19 is being used, and is faking them out to be heroes. Robert Cook

Comment Be Very Afraid April 15th 2020

Old, poor and sickly people have been dying from ordinary flu for many years, but that didn’t stop the world. Mainstream media are accusing Trump of shifting blame. We are not supposed to notoce this is a way of blaming him in election year, because the media don’t like him.

Britain’s chief medical officer also diimisssed the Corona as a serious threat at the outset, then moved on to argue for allowing herd immunity to build up. Now they are saying that can’t happen, people will go on being reinfected. There seems to be a hidden agenda here.

Since it is now perfectly acceptable for the political elite to stoke up fear of Covid 19 aka Corona, I am offering the same. Still at least the authorities are being honest about their intention to milk this crisis to the maximum. Paranoia is another term of abuse, along with racism and sexism, used to rubbish any opinion contrary to the elite.  

They favour phrases like ‘experts say’ , the science says’ and ‘this is a war for democracy.’  As former senior British diplomat Sir Edward Tomkins told me, when I interviewed him in 1988, ‘You have to read between the lines.’  He was referring to his decision to escape from an Italian Prisoner of War Camp.

From the Corona Prisoner of War Camp there appears to be no escape.  Millions will lose their jobs, but ll is in a good cause in the war on Corona.  Ever noticed, the elite always have to have some kind of bogey person, or virus as in this case – but there are real bogey men behind all this.

When governments quote experts, they are quoting the ones in their pay.  There are experts telling s about three virus mutation so far.  There are experts saying that the only solution is to let the virus do as it must, giving us herd immunity. There are experts saying that the virus is only dangerous to those who are very old, poor and or with pre existing medical conditions, like diabetes which is rife among the badly fed lower class and ethnic U.S population.  There is the third World orientated World Health Organisation who see this situation as a way of putting brakes on the rich countries for their own benefit.  T talk of deposing African dictators and birth control is anathema to them.

So, we are where we are. The consequences will be horrific, bad news already being suppressed by the mainstream media who are part of the elite.  Here in Britain, the comfortable and the ignorant jump in the hedges when I meet them out walking, many wear useless masks, that comfort them with this state sponsored Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.  There is an inevitability about all of this.  The world economy dominated by the Anglo/U.S money grabbing war mongering elite, backed by the bran dead PC Liberal/Feminists have promoted the ‘everlasting feast’ syndrome, with crazy world population growth for slaves-dreaming of God and rewards in heaven.  

Rampant destruction of the earth’s natural environment has been the outcome.  Now we see Trump added to the list of scapegoats for Corona- which could have been a biological weapon released by anyone, but blamed on China.  China has been doing most of the world’s CO2 polluting for years, providing cheap goods, medicines and God knows what else. It has inevitably been main polluter, while Greta and the envos f the west vilify them and aim for their own countries to achieve zero emissions.  Now the s-it has hit the proverbial fan.  As George Bush Jnr said, when he and Blair decided to start the Middle Eastern fire, ‘You ain’t seen nuttin yet’.  

As for the latest elite drivel about lockdown, why not cut straight to the chase and nuke the world’s masses ? . That will get rid of the virus and a population made redundant by technology.  The elite have got the bunkers, and are planning a colony on Mars.  The nerds will help them as they did for the Nazis with the likes of Werner Von Braun.  That would be so much quicker and kinder than what will happen if this situation carries on.  We are social animals.  I realise that I am very well educated, by two universities and by life, but I would never be arrogant and call myself an expert.  The term is used to dictate blind obedience.  

It is how the Nazis knew that a few guards with machine guns could get the Jewish masses to line up in front of a big pit, to be shot by the hundred.  It is how they walked naked into the gas chambers.  No one person dared lead a revolt which could have easily overwhelmed these with guns.  It is why it was so easy to jail and condemn Julian Assange for revealing so many of our Angl0/U.S vile secretive regime.  

While that system wreathes and seethes, the elite media plots against Trump.  Our media does the same.  They want a fake liberal democrat.  The fact Joe Biden has a dubious business history is of no concern.  They want another oppressive fake liberal war scaremongering front man.  I see no hope for the masses.  Corona cannot be beaten this way, and even if it was, population growth and biological war labs would invent more.  The elite have to stay in power, technology is their machine gun.  Robert Cook

Economy ‘could shrink by a third’ April 14th 2020

Britain’s economy could shrink by 35% in the second quarter and see unemployment jump by two million, according to a scenario published by the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR).
The UK fiscal watchdog published an estimate of the potential impact of the pandemic based on a three-month lockdown followed by a three-month period when restrictions are only partially lifted.

It sees GDP bouncing back quickly after its sharp contraction in the April-June period but estimates that the jobs market will take longer to recover.
The big increase in joblessness would take the unemployment rate up to 10%, a level not seen since the early 1990s. The rate currently stands at 3.9%.
The OBR scenario sees government borrowing for 2020/21 climbing by £218bn to £273bn, or 14% of GDP – the largest single year deficit since the Second World War.
That is based on an assessment of the devastating economic impact of the lockdown on tax receipts as well as the additional spending by the government to try to address the crisis.
Those interventions will support individuals and businesses through the period and boost the availability of finance, the OBR said.
“They should also help to limit any long-term economic ‘scarring’ – for example, due to cancelled business investment, widespread business failures and the unemployed losing contact with the labour market,” it added.

Comment Anyone who thinks the consequences of Britain’s lock down will not be more serious than this exaggerated health scare – where government propagnda makes people think the virus affects and kills anyone, – will not be serious , are either in politics, self congratulating public service or asset stripping. Ordinary people cannot think for themselves.

Britain’s young face a horrible future because of our arrogant privileged political and financial elite. The old folk of my spolied baby boomer generation do not care , they just want to go on having fun and being looked after. It is a dreadful situation.

If they could they would be more scared of the consequences. The WHO ( World Health Organisation, not the rock group )was set up to deal with third world poverty and related disease. African women have, on average, 15 children each. That problem is impossible, but the comfortable smug patronising self righteous PC liberals are talking about easing visas to allow more people from these areas into Britain. To argue with them or lock down is to be racists. Robert Cook

Coronavirus: Care homes become the hidden front line in Britain’s fight against Covid-19 April 14th 2020

For almost three weeks John Arnold has not seen his wife. She used to come every other day to his care home, where they would have lunch, but since the lockdown all visits have stopped.

Mr Arnold, 83, who has Parkinson’s disease, tries to speak to Yvonne, 82, on the telephone twice a day but struggles with the handset. “She has found it very hard. I feel for her. She is living in the house on her own,” he said.

He moved into Brockington House in Hereford four months ago and is one of many older people living on the hidden front line in Britain’s battle to stop the spread of coronavirus.

Comment Cruel and hideous. Old age and other issues put these people at risk. they are being used as pawns in the government’s game.

Coronavirus: At least 23 killed in Colombia prison unrest Posted April 12th 2020

At least 23 people have died in one of Bogotá’s largest jails after what the authorities are calling a mass breakout attempt amid rising tensions over coronavirus.

Colombia’s Justice Minister Margarita Cabello said 83 inmates were injured during a riot at La Modelo prison.

Inmates at prisons across the country held protests on Sunday against overcrowding and poor health services during the coronavirus outbreak.

The justice ministry is investigating.

Ms Cabello said 32 prisoners and seven guards were in hospital. Two guards are in a critical condition.

She said the violence was a coordinated plan with disturbances reported across 13 of the country’s prisons.

Denying claims of unsanitary conditions amid fears of a coronavirus breakout, she said: “There is not any sanitary problem that would have caused this plan and these riots.

“There is not one infection nor any prisoner or custodial or administrative staffer who has coronavirus.”

She said prisoners had run amok and some would be charged with attempted murder, and damage to property.

A large number of relatives gathered outside the gates of La Modelo prison to await news of their loved ones. They said they had heard of shots being fired after the security forces arrived.

Videos posted to social media showed inmates setting fire to mattresses.

The country’s 132 prisons have an 81,000-inmate capacity but house more than 121,000 prisoners, according to figures from the justice ministry.

So far, there have been 231 confirmed cases of coronavirus in Colombia and two people have died.

The country is set to begin a nationwide quarantine from Tuesday which is expected to last 19 days. It will restrict residents’ movements with the exception of medical staff, security forces and pharmacy and supermarket staff.

People over the age of 70 have been told to stay indoors until the end of May.

Update on Columbia’s Response to the Coronavirus

By Ira Katznelson, Interim Provost and Lee Goldman, Executive Vice President and Dean of the Faculties of Health Sciences and Medicine January 29, 2020

Dear fellow members of the Columbia community:

The University is closely monitoring information and expert national recommendations regarding the outbreak of a 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) first detected in Wuhan, China.

This outbreak is of considerable concern to all of us, and like any emerging infection should be approached with thoughtfulness, prudent prevention, and timely intervention. Based on national recommendations from the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and our own Columbia infectious disease experts, we are glad to share information and advice to guide the Columbia community.

Please understand, however, that the University is being diligent, day by day, in assessing circumstances in tandem with leading health authorities and the practices of other institutions. As a result, we may update advice at any time as circumstances may change rapidly.

To date, there are no known cases in the New York area and no known cases concerning our students, faculty, staff, or affiliates. Presently, the immediate health risk to the Columbia community is therefore considered low.

In these circumstances, and following the recommendations of local, state, and national health authorities to make sure we are undertaking evidence-informed procedures, the University has not made changes to classes, activities, operations, and events on our New York campuses.

Here, we wish to convey current appraisals about symptoms and travel to and from China, taken directly from national sources such as the CDC.

Corona Virus 2 Police State April 12th 2020

Police forces across the country used a range of tactics to keep people off the streets, away from beaches and out of parks yesterday, including monitoring shopping aisles and launching boat patrols off the south coast.

Downing Street has warned the police against “heavy-handed” lockdown tactics after one officer tweeted that they were policing supermarkets for people with “non-essential” items. The message came as a video showed an officer in South Yorkshire rebuking a family for letting their young children play on the front lawn.

Surrey police deployed what they called a “sky talk” drone to break up a group of 30 people in Walton-on-Thames. The drone plays a pre-recorded message through a loudspeaker: “Attention this is a police message. You are gathering in breach

The front page of the Daily Express is dominated by an image of Aimee Goold, an intensive care nurse from Nottinghamshire.

She posted a picture online of herself at the end of her shift, her face a mass of marks, sores and red patches because of the tight-fitting mask she’d been wearing for 13 hours. “Bruised, battered and exhausted,” the Express says, “Aimee Goold begged people to ‘remember this face’ and stay at home.”

The Daily Mirror leads on complaints by some NHS staff of the lack of personal protective equipment (PPE) – which it illustrates with a picture on its front page of three nurses wearing improvised gowns made out of binbags.

Others are resorting to cutting up hospital curtains or using bits of plastic as makeshift masks, the Mirror says, or even reusing old scrubs.

The Guardian focuses on the first 10 doctors in the UK named as having died from Covid-19, all of whom were from ethnic minorities.

It reports that the British Medical Association has asked the government to “urgently investigate” what it calls an extremely disturbing and worrying trend. The chairman of the BMA, Dr Chaand Nagpaul, tells the paper: “At face value, it seems hard to see how this can be random.”

The Daily Telegraph says ministers now believe the cost of the crisis here could be the economy “slumping by more than 14% in the next three months.”

That is sparking concerns – it says – that tens of thousands of Britons may die prematurely from the “worst recession in history”, with the lockdown ultimately proving “more lethal to the health of the country” than the coronavirus itself.

The Daily Mail reports that officials believe normal life will have stay on hold until a vaccine becomes available, in about 18 months.

Ministers want to lift some restrictions within weeks it says – but nonetheless the country will have to get used to a “new normal” until effective medication is available.

The Daily Telegraph’s take is even more gloomy – “Social distancing ‘could be indefinite’” is its headline.

It reports people will be asked to consider whether social interactions – such as returning to an office or visiting relations – are necessary, as part of a plan to live with the virus for “months or even years.”

The Times however, has spoken to the British scientist leading what it calls one of the world’s most advanced efforts to find a vaccine – who says it could be ready as soon as September. Sarah Gilbert, professor of vaccinology at Oxford University, tells the paper she is “80% confident” the vaccine being developed by her team will work.

Several papers focus on the health of the prime minister. The Sun says Boris Johnson’s fiancee Carrie Symonds sent him daily letters and scans of their unborn child while he was in intensive care to “lift his spirits.”

As Mr Johnson gets better, the Times says, he’s needed things to do as he rests. The paper reports his activities have included doing puzzles – like Sudoku – and watching films, such as the Lord of the Rings trilogy and Withnail and I.

Of course – because of the lockdown – it’s not just the prime minister who suddenly has more time on his hands.

The Daily Mail says it’s meant huge numbers of people turning to gardening and DIY projects – and massively overloading B&Q’s website in the process.

At one point yesterday, it reports, would-be purchasers of home improvements were told they would have to wait more than a hour to get online, as more than 300,000 people were simultaneously trying to buy products.

The environment is at least benefiting though, the Times reports. It says cities including London, Leeds, Oxford and Glasgow have seen big falls in nitrogen dioxide levels. One expert tells the paper the change is so profound it’s the equivalent of everyone switching to electric cars.

God’s Design April 11th 2020

Pope Francis held down his title as the ~cool~ pope on Thursday when he suggested that women at risk for contracting the Zika virus could use birth control. Until now, most of the heavily Catholic South and Central American countries battling the virus have preached abstinence as the best way for women to avoid becoming pregnant and risk developing the severe birth defect linked to the illness.

On his way back to Rome from Mexico, Francis told reporters that birth control is the “lesser of two evils.” Compared to abortion, he explained, “avoiding pregnancy is not an absolute evil.”

Which raises the question: If the pope can make exceptions to the Catholic Church’s anti-contraception mandate with such seeming ease, why is the Church so vehemently opposed to birth control in the first place?

For centuries, Christianity as a whole prohibited any form of contraception because it considered any act that stood in the way of pregnancy an affront to “God’s design.”

Comment

Catholic countries have been worst hit by the Corona Virus – including Italy. Islamic countries have suffered more too, especially Iran. Catholicism dominates Latin America and Africa. It is also prevalent in Italy. Poverty. ignorance and squalor encourages disease. In the 1970s, I worked for a Chilean Govenment agency and saw the vile regime first hand. The whole regime preyed on ignorance and religious obedience, much to Britain’s profit.

It amazes me that people in the West have seen such a religious revival, but mass immigration from poor countries feeds it. Liberal Hate laws prevent rational discussion and criticism.

Islam is an offshoot of Christianity, which is an offshoot of Judaism. Jesus was a Jew. High ranking Jews orchestarted Jesus’s death. According to the Gospels Jesus was a peace lover who wanted his diciples to help the poor. He rejected much of the Jewsih Old Testament ( which is the basis of the Koran ) which exhorted people to go forth amd multiply.

Like Islam, Marxism, Christianity has been hijacked by unscrupulous politicians and used to justify murder , torture and war. Catholic Mary Tudor burnt Protestant dissenters alive. The Bishop of Worcester, fully conscious, took 90 minutes to die, his eye lids burnt off , eyeballs exploding and arms falling off as the flames burned through muscles, while the Bishop screamed until all nerves were dead.

Going forth and multiplying because of what the Old Testament or Koran says, is a recipe for mass deaths from poverty, famine, war and disease. It has much to do with world poverty and Corona able to jump from mouth to mouth. To talk, as the Catholic Church does, of God’s design, would be regarded as paranoid delusion if spoken by a private individual. If this is God’s design then we should all be very afraid.

It may not be insane to believe that there might be a GOD force, but it is the height of absurdity to believe that it has been conjoured up by the Bible or Koran.

We have no evidence of a Godly design. The Pope is deluded about this and birth control, as are his follwers. They breed poverty and disease all across the miserable Third World.

It is ridiculous fatalism and the opposite of science. Having said that, we should treat those who keep trotting out the phrase ‘The science” says, with considerable scepticism. There is no reason to believe the ‘experts’ on Corona or the ridiculous notion of lockdown and social distance. There is much we are not being told about Corona- where it came from, how it spread and why. Robert Cook

What does ‘recovered from coronavirus’ mean? April 11th 2020

By Tom Duszynski – Director Epidemiology Education, IUPUI 4 days ago

And are you immune to the virus once you’ve recovered?

The coronavirus is certainly scary, but despite the constant reporting on total cases and a climbing death toll, the reality is that the vast majority of people who come down with COVID-19 survive it. Just as the number of cases grows, so does another number: those who have recovered.

In mid-March, the number of patients in the U.S. who had officially recovered from the virus was close to zero. That number is now in the tens of thousands and is climbing every day. But recovering from COVID-19 is more complicated than simply feeling better. Recovery involves biology, epidemiology and a little bit of bureaucracy too.

Why have so few people officially recovered in the US?

This is a dangerous virus, so the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is being extremely careful when deciding what it means to recover from COVID-19. Both medical and testing criteria must be met before a person is officially declared recovered.

Medically, a person must be fever-free without fever-reducing medications for three consecutive days. They must show an improvement in their other symptoms, including reduced coughing and shortness of breath. And it must be at least seven full days since the symptoms began.

In addition to those requirements, the CDC guidelines say that a person must test negative for the coronavirus twice, with the tests taken at least 24 hours apart.

Only then, if both the symptom and testing conditions are met, is a person officially considered recovered by the CDC.

This second testing requirement is likely why there were so few official recovered cases in the U.S. until late March. Initially, there was a massive shortage of testing in the U.S. So while many people were certainly recovering over the last few weeks, this could not be officially confirmed. As the country enters the height of the pandemic in the coming weeks, focus is still on testing those who are infected, not those who have likely recovered.

Many more people are being tested now that states and private companies have begun producing and distributing tests. As the number of available tests increases and the pandemic eventually slows in the country, more testing will be available for those who have appeared to recover. As people who have already recovered are tested, the appearance of any new infections will help researchers learn how long immunity can be expected to last.

Once a person has recovered, what can they do?

Knowing whether or not people are immune to COVID-19 after they recover is going to determine what individuals, communities and society at large can do going forward. If scientists can show that recovered patients are immune to the coronavirus, then a person who has recovered could in theory help support the health care system by caring for those who are infected.

Once communities pass the peak of the epidemic, the number of new infections will decline, while the number of recovered people will increase. As these trends continue, the risk of transmission will fall. Once the risk of transmission has fallen enough, community-level isolation and social distancing orders will begin to relax and businesses will start to reopen. Based on what other countries have gone through, it will be months until the risk of transmission is low in the U.S.

But before any of this can happen, the U.S. and the world need to make it through the peak of this pandemic. Social distancing works to slow the spread of infectious diseases and is working for COVID-19. Many people will need medical help to recover, and social distancing will slow this virus down and give people the best chance to do so.

This article was originally published at The Conversation. The publication contributed the article to Live Science’s Expert Voices: Op-Ed & Insights.

How does your body fight off COVID-19?

Once a person is exposed to the coronavirus, the body starts producing proteins called antibodies to fight the infection. As these antibodies start to successfully contain the virus and keep it from replicating in the body, symptoms usually begin to lessen and you start to feel better. Eventually, if all goes well, your immune system will completely destroy all of the virus in your system. A person who was infected with and survived a virus with no long-term health effects or disabilities has “recovered.”

On average, a person who is infected with SARS-CoV-2 will feel ill for about seven days from the onset of symptoms. Even after symptoms disappear, there still may be small amounts of the virus in a patient’s system, and they should stay isolated for an additional three days to ensure they have truly recovered and are no longer infectious.

Coronavirus science and news

—Coronavirus in the US: Map & cases
—What are coronavirus symptoms?—How deadly is the new coronavirus?—How long does coronavirus last on surfaces?—Is there a cure for COVID-19?—How does coronavirus compare with seasonal flu?—How does the coronavirus spread?—Can people spread the coronavirus after they recover?

What about immunity?

In general, once you have recovered from a viral infection, your body will keep cells called lymphocytes in your system. These cells “remember” viruses they’ve previously seen and can react quickly to fight them off again. If you are exposed to a virus you have already had, your antibodies will likely stop the virus before it starts causing symptoms. You become immune. This is the principle behind many vaccines.

Unfortunately, immunity isn’t perfect. For many viruses, like mumps, immunity can wane over time, leaving you susceptible to the virus in the future. This is why you need to get revaccinated — those “booster shots” — occasionally: to prompt your immune system to make more antibodies and memory cells.

Since this coronavirus is so new, scientists still don’t know whether people who recover from COVID-19 are immune to future infections of the virus. Doctors are finding antibodies in ill and recovered patients, and that indicates the development of immunity. But the question remains how long that immunity will last. Other coronaviruses like SARS and MERS produce an immune response that will protect a person at least for a short time. I would suspect the same is true of SARS-CoV-2, but the research simply hasn’t been done yet to say so definitively.

Coronavirus: One in five Britons with COVID-19 symptoms ‘not fully self-isolating’ April 11th 2020

A fifth of Britons with at least one symptom of coronavirus in the last week did not fully self-isolate, new research suggests.

The YouGov poll found 12% of Britons surveyed had experienced a common symptom of COVID-19 in the previous seven days.

They include a fever, dry cough, loss of taste or smell, and shortness of breath.

When asked what action they took over the following days, 21% of those with at least one coronavirus symptom said they had only sometimes, rarely or never self-isolated.

NHS advice states that people should stay at home for seven days if they have either a high temperature or a new, continuous cough.

Anyone living with someone with those symptoms has been told to self-isolate for 14 days.

The government said earlier this month that loss of taste and smell would not be added to the list of symptoms that people should watch for when assessing if they have coronavirus.

Comment

One would have thought true symptoms would be obvious and debilitating. One could guess these people are using Covid 19 as an excuse to miss work, if they have any. It is just more scaremongering. Some will even read this headline and believe it means one in five have the symptoms. The intention is obvious.

Misleading Figures- In Reality deaths reach 980 last 24 hours, not 980 more dead. Comment shortly. April 11th 2020

The death rate of patients admitted to intensive care with coronavirus now stands at more than 51 per cent, according to a study of critical care outcomes.

The figure comes from the Intensive Care National Audit and Research Centre (ICNARC) and is based on a sample of 3,883 coronavirus patients.

It comes as the UK saw its deadliest day in the outbreak so far with a record increase of 980 deaths in just 24 hours, pushing the total fatalities up to almost 9,000.

The recent study shows that out of 1,689 patients in the sample whose care outcome was known, 871 died (51.6 per cent), while 818 were discharged.

In comparison, just 22 per cent out of 5,367 patients taken into critical care with non-Covid-19 viral pneumonia died between 2017 and 2019.

The coronavirus figures come from 284 NHS critical care units in England, Wales and Northern Ireland taking part in an ICNARC programme as of 4pm on April 9.

According to the study, the data shows that: “Of the 3,883 patients, 871 patients have died, 818 patients have been discharged alive from critical care and 2,194 patients were last reported as still receiving critical care.”

The mortality rate is currently higher for men and increases with age, the data shows.

Comment

The above articles is blatanly scaremongering by making the average poor reader believe that 980 died yesterday in Britain. The running total is 980 -not just yesterday- mostly elderly , poor and in densely populated areas.

The U.S – worst hit country after China- rate of 2000 dead are mainly in poor parts of New Your, where poverty, poor diet and diabetes are key fctors.

None of this matters to the elitists in the British press who now khow to panic the ignorant masses into conformity with a situation promising more death and misery than Coronavirus, and its possible creators, could be expected to cause. Robert Cook

Lies Damned Lies and Statistics April 9th 2020

Another 765 patients have died in England after contracting coronavirus – bringing the total to 7,248.
The figures have been released by NHS England.
They clarified that 140 of those deaths took place on Wednesday, while 568 happened within the previous week and the remaining 57 were from March.

In Scotland, the number of people with coronavirus who have died rose by 81 on Thursday taking the total to 447, First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said.
Wales has reported another 41 deaths, taking the total there to 286.
Today’s numbers from Northern Ireland have not yet been released.

Earlier, Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden told Sky News the meeting would “determine the process” for how the COVID-19 lockdown extension decision will be made.
When the emergency measures came into force the government vowed they would be reviewed in three weeks; that point is Easter Monday.
The Coronavirus Act rushed through parliament last month states that the government has until next Thursday to review the lockdown.

There are fears people may not heed the “stay at home” advice this Easter weekend, when there is predicted to be good weather.
Wales has already admitted it will extend the lockdown, First Minister Mark Drakeford saying on Wednesday: “We will not throw away the gains we have made and the lives we can save by abandoning our efforts just as they begin to bear fruit.”
Ms Sturgeon has hinted heavily the same will happen in Scotland, telling Sky News on Thursday she agreed with the move and adding:”I don’t think there is any possibility, any likelihood of these lockdown measures being lifted immediately or even imminently.”

Comment

Wheeling out the 94 year old Queen, along with clapathons for brave NHS workers, Boris and police, makes it clear the government is on a war footing. We, therefore must be under increasingly totalitarian control by the vested interests who determine our fate.

Negative propaganda is unusual in warfare, so why are the government recycling previous deaths from March as part of today’s rise ? The answer is because they are ready to tighten lockdown, and certainly have no plans to remove it any time soon. They need fake evidence. In any case, Europe still, and always will, calls the shots. Mass immigration , poverty, and diseasedisease is an even bigger issue for them -with social unrest bubbling away like white hot lava under the now deserted urban landscape.

In this context, one might realise why this apparent negative propaganda is such a big part of government strategy. It is because government, in this fake democracy, regards the indigeenous British working classes – being thrown on the scrapheap in record numbers because of the corona lockdown and shut away in tiny urban flats and houses, worrying about the kids and bills, no alcohol, arguing amongst themselves with resulting domestic violence -as the real enemy. So they must learn to fear the virus, death, and the police in the last resort.

It was Boris Johsnon’s hero Sir Winston Churchill, who said ‘There are lies, damned lies and statistics.’ The government has just announced that it is too early to lift lockdown, aannouncing that ‘The death count has risen to 881 in one day.’ Bear in mind that this is a nation of illiterates, even though record numbers go to ‘uni’ to study absurdities, most Brits will think this means 881 have died today. They won’t do the maths to realise that would mean a weekly death rate of 6.167. That would mean 24,668 had died from Corona over the last 4 weeks- half the world total to date. But in this age of computers and calulators, people are also innumerate too.

Government and their arrogant experts know all about statistics. That is why they will fiddle the figures and wait as long as necessary for their predicted crisis peak. We just haven’t got there fast enough for them and never actually will. So the peak has been revised down, by experts, from 250,000 to 20,000. Very few of these deaths will be outside urban areas, favouring the eldlerly, and poor.

The fact that most, if not all cases and fatalities , have pre existing medical conditions and are automatically being certified as dying of Corona Virus is never mentioned.. The object of the exercise is to scare as many people as possible, driving them into bankruptcy, despair and homelessness if possible. Then along come the asset strippers and repossessors.

Pushing up the figues is vital. Another bonus is domestic violence, because domestic warfare scapegoats men, creating more self righteous distractions for the feminists, as we see with the current Home Affairs Committe attack on Priti Patel. Apparently her Home Office is not doing enough to protect women during this crisis- so says Chair Yvette Cooper. Wars always create opportunities and sideshows. This Coronavirus happening is a golden opportunity for the female elite to fan the destructive flames of feminism.

By the authorities own admission, they do not have accurate tests for corona and base death certificates on symptoms -which can be very like regular flu. Younger victims also, as with U.S tend to have dietary issues and diabetes.

The governing class won’t talk about this; ignoring the Oxford Cambridge research groups research evidence that the only way out of this is to allow it to spread, developing herd immunity. Otherwise it will come back in the autumn, killing more, alongsside normal flu. The implications are endless lockdown. It takes 4-5 years to develop a reliable vaccine. Higher taxes on the elite would be a real solution, as part of a war on what Lord Beveridge called the four giants, Poverty, Disease, Ignorance and Squalor. That was back in 1944 ! There is also the issue of political reform and serious development in Africa, to reduce the absurd population growth.

That won’t happen because the global economy, with the ich black and white parasites who feed off it, like teh gangsters big companies and dictators are, won’t take blame. They rely on stupid white upper middle class self styled lefties, to scream racism or sexism as soon as anyone dares to criticise the appalling African system, which relies on religious bigotry to suppress any form of worthwhile mass consciousness..

It is not surprsing that so many black Africans arrive on the coast of Italy evry week, but it is not a sustainable solution to the most serious global problems, which also are the root of climate change. Humans need to drop the nonsense about being God’s special creation. Even if this outdated dogma were true, any super intelligent God capable of creating the world and universe would call time.

As ity says in the bible and its’ Koran revision, ‘The Fire Next Time.’ But how many so called devout people, ever read these books, as I did when I was head of RE at a secondary school – actually had to read the bible when I was a boy at school. They rely on others to tell them what religion is about, but it must never be questioned The powers thrive on religious stupidity, obedience and ignorance, with the devout finding the rituals calming.

Our government promotes ignorance in the name of education. It prefers to scare and control the whole population, outside the elite, for a strategy bound to harm and kill more people than it saves. So either we are under the rule of proud arrogant idiots, or there is a hidden agenda. It could be both. Robert Cook

BBC’s Emiliy Maitlis on coronavirus April 9th 2020

Emily Maitlis has been praised for her “extraordinary” introduction to BBC’s Newsnight in which she slammed “misleading” language surrounding the coronavirus crisis.

The host appeared to take aim at ministers for suggesting Covid-19 could be survived by showing “fortitude” and “strength of character”.

Opening Wednesday night’s programme, Maitlis also bluntly dismissed the idea that the illness is a “great leveller,” describing this as a “myth that needs debunking”.

Viewers took to social media to praise the presenter of the flagship political show, leading to her name trending on Twitter into the early hours of Thursday.

Comment

All in it tigether, equal my foot ! MPs have been awarded a £10,000 tax payer funded allowance to help them work at home. Even more reason for them not ending lockdown.

We mortals can now be fined for buying non essentials like wine and the middle classes are the great stock pilers, with all that money, space and giant fridge freezers. Anyone who needed Ms Maitlis to tell them this must be thick and totally deferential. Still it is good to hear it from the BBC.

However, this disease does not just hit the poor and vulnerable hardest, it comes out of poor, ignorant, exploited, oppressed, overpopulated and densely populated groups across the world. London and Welsh leaders, with some very densely populated poor areas have demanded no end to the lockdown.

The gospel writers came up with the timeless phrase : Mark 14:7
The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them whenever you want. But you will not always have Me.

The logic of applying this to Coronavirus is that coronavirus will always be with us. In the U.S 70% of cases are amongst poor white and black working class communities and all others are urban. This problem is just the latest outcome of neglecting and exploiting ignorance. I have already posted British figures on here. Deaths noted as probably corona virus- there are no accurate tests – are tiny fraction of all deaths recorded since the so called health ( really political ) crisis began. Robert Cook

No End To Britain’s Lockdown April 9th 2020

Senior ministers are gathering for a “lockdown summit” that is expected to result in restrictions on movement being extended until May at the earliest.
Ahead of the COBRA meeting, hopes of an end to the shutdown of pubs, restaurants, shops and other businesses were all but dashed by Chancellor Rishi Sunak and other senior politicians.
Some ministers believe a decision to lift the ban will not be taken until the prime minister returns to work – and as this could be several weeks away, there is no end to the COVID-19 lockdown in sight.

With the Easter weekend looming – and soaring temperatures forecast for Good Friday and Saturday – experts are concerned that failing to maintain instructions to stay at home could prove catastrophic.
It was confirmed on Wednesday that another 938 COVID-19 patients have died in UK hospitals, taking the total to 7,097.

When the prime minister announced the lockdown in his televised address on 23 March, he told the nation: “I can assure you that we will keep these restrictions under constant review. We will look again in three weeks, and relax them if the evidence shows we are able to.”
This three-week period ends on Easter Monday, and the Coronavirus Act rushed through parliament last month states that the government has until next Thursday to review the lockdown.
Although there will be no formal announcement of a decision after the COBRA meeting, it is expected that Mr Raab will warn the public to prepare for an extension of the lockdown at the Downing Street news conference this afternoon.

Presenting evidence at the COBRA meeting on the effectiveness of the lockdown so far will be the England’s chief medical officer Professor Chris Whitty, and chief scientific adviser Sir Patrick Vallance.
Senior police chiefs will also report on lockdown enforcement and make recommendations on whether any easing of restrictions is possible or – more likely – tougher curbs on movement are needed.

And London’s Mayor Sadiq Khan said: “I think we’re nowhere near lifting the lockdown. I speak to experts regularly. We think the peak which is the worst part of the virus is still probably a week and a half away.”

Politics of Corona in Britain and Beyond April 8th 2020

France, and to a slightly lesser extent Germany, cannot afford to end the lock down.  Macron -voted into presidential office after so much foreign interference from Obama, European leaders, and significantly Britain to discredit LePen – has shown himself to be arrogant and indifferent to his masses. Shutting down the economy as an absurd and dangerous reaction to Covid19 has exacerbated economic and social problems.  

The Far Right is now a much bigger danger, along with a violent reaction from the left, and significant Parisian minorities.  Merkel has similar problems in Berlin and elsewhere, with the AFD ready to capitalise on the incredible danger.  Europe could seriously fracture if Britain is allowed to leave.  British secret service and covert policing is second to none.  Europe needs the money as well.

So for the time being, with every assurance that Britain will remain in step over lock down, there is need to keep things as they are for quite a while to come..  This is interesting when one looks at the latest figures from the Office for National Statistics. In the week up to March 27^th 2020, there were 539 Covid 19 deaths.  Of these, 501 were recorded in hospitals, 38 in care homes and hospices, by doctors guessing, on the basis of symptoms.  They reported that these deaths were ‘probably’ caused by Covid 19.

The figure 539 represents just 4.8% of all U.K deaths in that period.  This means that 95.2% of all recorded deaths in the U.K had nothing to do with Covid 19.  So, basically 20 times the number of ‘probable’ covid 19 deaths died of something else!  So what is really going on here ?

Obviously no one in authority or mainstream media is going to tell the truth about this.  Meanwhile other health risk issues. Like cancer, are being ignored.  These ‘experts’ and career politicians also do not want to talk about how COVID19 conveniently arrived here in the first place. It came via international travellers.  Britain’s chief medical officer et al were quick to say there was no risk when news broke of the problem in China. They didn’t want lock down then – because it might have worked then!  Robert Cook

Politics of Coronavirus Lots More Money to be Made -April 8th 2020

More To Come, France & Germany Cannot afford to end lockdown, forget Brexit, Britain Won’t dare step out of line, and Brit Super Rich are going to gain billions too from grinding the masses further into the mud. A massive wealth transfer under way on the pretence of saving lives of mainly old people at the expense of the young.

Vacuum or Vacu’us ? Report from MSN April 8th 2020

Dominic Raab, the PM’s stand-in, has refused to confirm whether a decision on easing restrictions would be taken on Easter Monday – and he suggested it could be delayed.
There are now claims of a power vacuum at the heart of government after Downing Street revealed there are strict limitations on Mr Raab’s powers while he is deputising for Mr Johnson in key meetings.

There are also doubts in Whitehall about whether critical decisions on the lockdown can be taken without Mr Johnson’s input.
Mr Raab, who is first secretary of state as well as foreign secretary, has struggled to answer questions on whether he has the authority to change course.

“But the present urgency of the situation and the potential decisions that may need to be taken does mean that Dominic Raab will have to use his discretion and know when to act.”
When Mr Johnson announced the lockdown in his TV address on 23 March, he said it would be reviewed after three weeks.
But at the latest Downing Street news conference, Mr Raab said: “We’re not at that stage yet.”
After two nights in intensive care battling the virus, Mr Johnson’s condition is stable and he is in good spirits, according to Number 10. He is receiving oxygen but is not on a ventilator and does not have pneumonia.
Calling the PM “a colleague and a friend”, Mr Raab said: “I’m confident he’ll pull through because if there’s one thing I know about this prime minister, he’s a fighter and he’ll be back at the helm leading us through this crisis in short order.”

But it was plain from the PM’s most recent video appearance, last Friday, that he was struggling to throw off the virus – and he was admitted to St Thomas’ Hospital in London on Sunday evening.
Mr Johnson has now spent a third night in hospital – and since a large part of the 55-year-old’s stay has been spent in intensive care, Mr Raab’s claim that Mr Johnson will soon be back leading the government’s fight against coronavirus looks optimistic.

Prompting alarm among Tory MPs, medical experts are claiming Mr Johnson may be off work for at least a month, and his recovery from the shock of a spell in intensive care may last until the summer.
Professor Paul Hunter, an expert in infectious diseases at the University of East Anglia, told the Daily Mail: “If you have been sick enough to go on intensive care and you survive – and only about half of patients survive – clearly you will need some time to recover.

Comment by Light in the Dark

There are six things to know about lockdown : 1) To have any chance of working it has to happen as soon as the first few cases are reported, 2) It has to be specific to the area and based on facts, in this case it was imported via transport hubs like London, where the PM caught it 3 ) It should not be an hysterical response to mainstream media self interest 4) It should not happen for the short term benefit of minorities at the long social and economic cost to the masses and overall economy 5) It should not happen because third world squalor and exploitation has added yet another disease to problems caused by overpopulation and wetern ecomic exploitation, otherwise these problems will continually be imported with long term disaterous effects 6) Herd immunity is the only viable long term solution, otherwise the problem, along with other virus mutations will keep coming back as an inherent outcome of global economics.

Regarding the power vacuum, none of our elite careerist politicians has a clue about life among the masses. None of them will have the guts to stop this insane war mongering lockdown. Boris is a side show, but an important one in this World War Two revival of ‘we’re all in it together.’As I have said before, Some of us are more in it than others.

World War Two was a disaster. Britain’ elite had ample opportunity to stop it happening, but chose to shift all the guilt for World War One on to Germany. As the inevitable fascism took root, Britain’s elite turned their back on their own poor, feared comminism spreading from U.S.S.R, so saw the Nazis as a bulwark against it.

All they cared about was their privileges. That is all they care about now. Clapping for Boris and the NHS is grotesque. Boris is a privilged person, out of touch, has a massive private income, partly sourced by patronising elitist journalism. His class have been chopping up the NHS for years, making it top heavy with incompetent overpaid managers and innundating the country with immigrants with all manner of ailments and demands.

The immigrants may deserve sympathy because our elite have done so much to foster their ignorance, bombing many out of their countries, all for the global economy which is the root of this problem.

Lock Down is really the pits for our ruling class in this fake demcracy. Hopefully more people will now see it for the police state that it is. My final message here for those with brains, ‘Stay safe, Mind Your Language’ because you are being watched and listened to by someone looking for ‘Brownie Points.’

As it stands, apart from the untrustworthiness of those collating the statistics, the authorities have it both ways. It is the proverbial Catch 22 So, if the infection and deaths go down it is because lockdown is working. So we need more lockdown. If the figures go up, we need more lockdown to keep up the good fight to protect health workers and vulnerable minorities – world wide. So it is all pretty hopeless.

In reality, there is no evidence that lockdown does any good, and it is most definitely building up much more serious economic , social and health probems for the future – and a haven for coronavirus and so much more in the not too distant future. This is a Demesday scenario, Armagedon, if this continues much longr. Robert Cook

Trump Blames China and WHO April 8th 2020

President Donald Trump has threatened to withhold US funding from the World Health Organisation (WHO) because he claims the group did not react well to some of his regulations against China during the coronavirus pandemic.

The threat came during the White House’s Tuesday press briefing where the president said his administration would ‘look at’ pulling funding from the WHO.
“We’re going to put a hold on money spent for WHO,” he said during the briefing before rolling back the statement to say the pulling of funding was up for consideration. Reasoning behind pulling the funding was over claims the WHO “missed the call” for the novel virus.
“They seem to be very China-centric. And we have to look into that so we’ll look into it we pay for a majority of the money that they get,” the president added. 

Comment

The explanation here is very simple. At present the old Third World, which included China, is exploited by major western businesses. Medeival religions are encouraged in those places just as the were during the diesease ridden hardships of Britain’s industrial revolution. The slaves are encouraged to think they are working for rewards in God’s Heaven.

Only the technology has advanced. The mentality has not changed. U.S presidents, like the British elite, have gone happily along with exporting jobs to Third World slaves. A few years ago Microsoft were reported to be paying girls in the Far East, 34 cents an hour, with them packed in dorms at the factories.

Consequently the WHO is very Third World orientated because that is where the disease is and is spread from, Of course it is going to protect China at the expense of the west. Trump obviously thinks he is paying for some kind of disease early warning system.

Trumps war on China, with all that ‘We’ll fix China very quickly – we have a special bomb for that’ has made matters much worse. I had high hopes for Trump, but now realise he is part of the problem. But sadly, his rivals offer no better prospect. You have to be rich to run the U.S , a divided nation with far too many poor of its own. Robert Cook

Corona Virus Reality Check Posted April 7th 2020 Live Science

By Yasemin Saplakoglu – Staff Writer February 27, 2020

Despite worldwide efforts to contain the new coronavirus, hotspots continue to emerge, and the number of cases is on the rise.

It’s been only a couple of months since the virus, called SARS-CoV-2, made its first public appearance in a seafood-and-live-animal market in Wuhan, China. Since then, the virus has hopped borders, infected over 82,500 people and killed 2,810. But as with all past outbreaks, this one will eventually come to an end.

So, how will this story wrap up? Experts say one possibility is that cases of the disease will start decreasing when enough people develop immunity, either through infection or vaccination. Another possible scenario is that the virus will continue to circulate and establish itself as a common respiratory virus.

“It is increasingly likely that this virus will spread worldwide,” said Aubree Gordon, an associate professor of epidemiology at the University of Michigan. “We still may have some chance to contain it, but that window does appear to be closing.”

The outbreak already meets two criteria of a pandemic: SARS-CoV-2 can infect people and cause illness, and it can spread easily from person to person, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said at a news conference Tuesday (Feb. 25). As the virus begins to infect communities in more countries, it is coming closer to meeting the third criterion: worldwide spread of the virus.

Around 95% of the cases of COVID-19, the disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, are in mainland China. However, spikes are occurring in other countries, including South Korea, Iran, Italy, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand and Japan. On Wednesday (Feb. 26), the CDC announced the first case of likely “community spread” of the virus, in a northern California patient with no ties to a hard-hit region.

The best way to control the virus or slow its spread is through containment measures such as quarantines and travel restrictions, Gordon told Live Science. Indeed, there’s been a worldwide effort to stop the spread of this new coronavirus. Some efforts, such as the quarantines on the Diamond Princess cruise ship, might have had limited success, Live Science previously reported. 

But containing the spread of the virus will be extremely difficult, Gordon said. There are a few reasons for that: SARS-CoV-2 spreads very easily, most cases of COVID-19 aren’t severe and thus may not be identified, and the virus has a long incubation period, or the time between when a person is infected and when they start showing symptoms, Gordon said. 

What’s more, all containment efforts are based on what we know about the virus, and there’s still much we don’t know. Quarantine periods are typically 14 days, based on early studies that suggested that was the longest possible incubation period for the virus. But there’s some evidence that the incubation period might be much longer. 

For instance, local news reports from China’s Hubei province (where the first human cases of the disease appeared) claimed that a 70-year-old man who was infected with the coronavirus didn’t show symptoms until 27 days after infection, according to The Washington Post. The most common ways the virus is thought to spread are through respiratory droplets and via contact with an infected person, but it’s still unclear if the virus can spread before symptoms begin.

And there’s still a possibility that the coronavirus began to spread before we even knew it existed. “I think it is already a pandemic,” said Dr. Amesh Adalja, an infectious-disease specialist and a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security in Baltimore. “I do believe that there likely have been cases in the U.S. and other places that went unrecognized, especially since the vast majority are mild and indistinguishable from other causes of the common cold.”

If containment efforts fail and this indeed becomes a pandemic, “there are two ways that it could end,” Gordon told Live Science. Either enough people will develop immunity — either through infection or vaccination — that the virus will stop transmitting and is eliminated, or the virus will continue to circulate and establish itself as a common respiratory virus.

Pandemics end when the virus doesn’t have enough susceptible people to infect. 

The catastrophic 1918 Spanish flu pandemic is thought to have infected 500 million people worldwide, many of them soldiers living in close quarters fighting in World War I. Once the war ended and people dispersed, the spread slowed as people had less contact. But the flu was ultimately halted in part because those who survived it had immunity and the virus didn’t hop as easily as it did at the beginning. 

If the virus comes into contact with another person but that person isn’t susceptible to the disease, then that chain of transmission is snuffed out. If one person infects two, those people together infect four and so on, and eventually, the virus runs out of susceptible people to infect, said Joshua Epstein, a professor of epidemiology at New York University. “What happens typically is that enough people get the bug that there just aren’t enough susceptible people to keep the chain going.”

Comment White Man Speak With Forked Tongue

So obviously lockdowns don’t work. We have them because special interests groups want them- like the EU. The global economy with its rampant exploitation of earth’s resources, including the ignorant masses, ensures a rapidly expanding supply of vulnerable people.

So obviously lockdowns don’t work. We have them because special interests groups want them- like the EU. The global economy with its rampant exploitation of earth’s resources, including the ignorant masses, ensures a rapidly expanding supply of vulnerable people.

In the west that tends to be the elderly, where viruses are secondary causes of the inevitable. But in the global economy’ massive slave states and continents, the vulnerable are counted in hundreds of millions. So this problem will never resolve.

That is why our political elites have resorted to garbage national bonding exercies and mass hypnosis, like NHS worshipping clapathons, singalongs and trotting out the Queen to romanticise and glamourise the hideous carange of World War Two.

For the sake of global elite greed, and covering political correctness, discussing harsh realities must be criminalised. Secrecy is paramount, however many people’s lives are destroyed by the likes of lockdowns. Mass migration, open borders, rolling wars for oil in the Middle East, and now the hybrid wars, will make matters so much worse.

There is too much money in too few hands. To speak of democracy in this context reminds me of the old cowboy and indian films, where the wise old chief used to say ‘White Man speak with forked tongue.’ Robert Cook

Has Corona Virus Mutated ? April 6th 2020

There has always been mystery about this cunning Corona virus, so clever it is almost as if it were made by a James Bond villain. The west says it started in a dirty meat mrket in Wuhan. The Russians said it is a western bio weapon made to look as if Russia’s main ally evil polluting China, world’s workshop, is to blame.

The western elite have been saying all along that the Covid 19, which seems to target the elderly, sickly and obese, would mutate and take us all if we do not keep 2 metres apart, get unemployed, homelsss, stay away from medical people and starve to death on the street.

Well, although the experts say they know little about this virus, except their certainty of a second wave, the nightmare has moved up a gear as they predicted. Sprightly trim British PM, young Boris Johnson, architect of Brexit has been so stricken by what some call the Chinese virus. He is in intensive care.

Thus the nation is now thrown into greater peril. Stricter lock down powers are being demanded, brave Brits are being told to cancel all holidays and get ready to lose everything. More people will die, say authorities. Just who can you trust, with Scotland’s health supremo forced tor resign for breaking her own rules ?

Meanwhile well respected British experts quite rightly sneer at Europe’s odd man out and lock down denier, Sweden. Sweden, with a lower infection and death rate, just won’t toe the line, with restaurants and hotels open for business as usual;

Obviously only government approved British experts are and know best. They are saying it is only a matter of time before old poorly Swedes start dying at a much fatser rate.

Meanwhile, deputy Dominic Raub has his steady and determined hand on British controls, assuring us that the police will be given all the powers they need. Robert Cook

Lockdown costing UK £2.4bn a day

Matt Oliver and Daniel Martin for the Daily Mail – Daily Mail – 05 April 2020

The astonishing cost of lockdown Britain was revealed last night.
Experts warned that the coronavirus pandemic is costing the UK economy more than £2.4billion every single day.
With millions of workers under orders to stay at home, a dramatic report estimated that the country’s output has been slashed by a staggering 31 per cent.

Manufacturers, shops, restaurants, hotels and builders have been hardest hit because staff cannot do their jobs remotely, according to the Centre for Economics and Business Research.
In a dramatic report, the think-tank lays bare the ‘extremely severe economic consequences’ of strict social distancing rules put in place to halt the rapid spread of the virus.

The study will reignite the row over whether the tough lockdown rules are worth the economic hit that the government is taking.
Downing Street has denied claims of a rift between Health Secretary Matt Hancock and Chancellor Rishi Sunak on how long the extraordinary limiations on liberty will remain in effect.

Yesterday Mr Hancock urged Britons to stick to the rules, saying they were ‘mission critical’ to the aim of slowing the spread of the deadly coronavirus.
He even threatened an even harsher lockdown – with outside exercise banned – after people flouted instructions to stay at home and went sunbathing over the weekend.

But last night former Tory leader Iain Duncan Smith warned the economy could only take a few more weeks of lockdown before it was damaged beyond repair.

Professor Graham Medley, a top government advisor, warned that the lockdown was harming ‘the incomes of people who rely on a continuous stream of money and their children’.
He said the trade off between protecting the lives of the most vulnerable and the wider population was being ‘increasingly considered’ by officials.

Comment April 6th 2020

Ian Duncan Smith, who lives very well, about two miles from me, when he is not ‘in town’ or jet setting, is being rather optimistic if he thinks the British economy and the society it supports can stand two more weeks of this.  

But I suppose it depends which economy and society one lives in.  His Tory colleague William Rees Mogg is a member of a billionaires investment group who have been told to get ready to make a killing when shares and assets have hit rock bottom.  For some repair is not their concern.  

They want something new, with the bonus of thinning out the great unwashed masses, especially the rather threatening and neglected young males. Youthful low class testosterone needs, as always, to be squandered on rich peoples’ wars. The elite sponsored sex war has done immense damage to family life, and young men in particular.  But from the elite perspective it hasn’t done enough .

They also fear the far right, because it attracts the disaffected. So that’s where the scaremongering comes in, along with sanctimonious nonsense about protecting the vulnerable.  

The BBC ( Big Brother Broadcasting ) won’t be asking who made the vulnerable so vulnerable. Old age is, of course a natural state of vulnerability, and little has been done to protect them before this.  Poor migrants from disease ridden Africa are vulnerable, as are those bombed out of the Middle East, by the Anglo U.S oil interest.

That is why the Queen was put on TV, where she dragged up all that old World War Two propaganda yesterday.  Does testing the young to find out if they are as ready to be sacrificed, smiling and singing ‘We’ll meet again’ really mark them out as as good as the lot her family ‘reigned’ over ?  How sick is that ?  Robert Cook

Africa Struggles April 5th 2020

As Nairobi, Kenya’s capital, slowly grinds to a halt amid movement restrictions and climbing coronavirus cases, Stephen Odhiambo, a 32-year old Nairobi-based carpenter, still visits his workshop twice a week.
But without erstwhile regular patronage, Odhiambo spends much of his day calling customers in the hope of making money to support his wife and two young children. “From last month, when the government started the restrictions, my business began going down really fast,” he tells Quartz.
Odhiambo’s persistence with his business amid the coronavirus pandemic captures the realities of millions of informal economy traders across Africa.

In different suburbs across the state, public transport operators, including now-banned tricycles and motorcyles are still working despite the high risk of having their vehicles impounded. In Zimbabwe, where a 21-day lockdown is underway, illegal money-changers who used to operate in the city center and shopping malls in suburbs now conduct business at home, inviting customers who want to buy foreign currency to come over. In Kenya, traders are still attempting to do business despite the threat of police brutality.

“This is a very difficult situation. People here survive on a hand to mouth basis.” Africa’s economies are dominated by their informal sectors which account for between 30% to 90% of all non-agricultural job and more than 40% of many African countries’ gross domestic product. The IMF estimates the informal sector’s share of the global economy has been falling on average over the last decade, but it remains at a weighted average of 34% in Sub Saharan Africa, compared with 9% in North America and 15% in the OECD countries. The concern with the dominance of the informal, cash-based sector on the continent has often been discussed in the context of the disadvantages of a low tax base or weak financial inclusion. But in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak and the introduction of global measures to stem its spread, the fact many developing world countries have large swathes of their population reliant on day-to-day, cash-based commerce for survival has been a stark reminder of global inequities.
Millions of Africans are unable to survive without some form of daily trade and don’t have the luxury of bank savings, credit cards and online commerce to be able to stay indoors or “social distance” for extended periods.

The lack of full compliance among small-scale and informal traders and businesses reflects their precarious financial realities. With business ventures that require daily activity to earn an income, a weeks-long hiatus from work can translate to financial peril. Without significant savings buffers to dip into amid coronavirus lockdown, many informal traders and businesses across the continent continue to operate out of a sense of necessity and desperation.

This effect is also seen in South Africa where there are signs of trading activity in townships home to low-income households. In Alexandra, a Johannesburg township, traders have set up their stalls as usual and are doing business with the complicit help of local residents and customers who tip them off about police presence.

By continuing to operate, informal traders put themselves at risk of being infected with, and spreading, Covid-19. Unlike formal businesses, some of which continue to operate virtually with staff working from home and payments mostly happening online, informal businesses and trade often involves close person-to-person contact and cash-based transactions.
These risks are now being heightened by recent concessions made by governments across the continent, in recognition of the economic vulnerability of informal businesses and traders. Authorities in Nigeria have announced a partial opening of markets amid the lockdown. In Mauritius, the government has created a calendar allocating market shopping days to citizens based on the first letter of their surname. And, in South Africa, restrictions on informal businesses and small convenience stores, known locally as spaza shops, have now been eased.iN Ghana, with Accra and Kumasi undergoing a two-week lockdown, vendors whose businesses depend on their proximity to now closed schools and offices have disappeared streets while informal workers in the hospitality industry are out of work, and without income, too.

In Ghana, with Accra and Kumasi undergoing a two-week lockdown, vendors whose businesses depend on their proximity to now closed schools and offices have disappeared streets while informal workers in the hospitality industry are out of work, and without income, too.

As authorities across the continent attempt to curb the long-term spread of coronavirus, they will likely find that their objective clashes with the short-term tough choices that millions of their citizens have to make. Tendai Mukora, a barber in Mutare, Zimbabwe’s fourth largest city, still attends to customers despite the risk of coronavirus as the alternative, he says, is watching his family go to bed on empty stomachs. “I have no choice, I have to put food on the table.”

Society to collapse by 2020: Scientist predicts ‘PEAK TURMOIL’ in THREE YEARS

SOCIETY is on the brink of collapsing within three years as political turmoil peaks, scientists claim.

By Sean Martin PUBLISHED: 17:13, Fri, Jan 6, 2017 | UPDATED: 17:25, Fri, Jan 6, 2017

War on the streets could be the norm by 2020 as unrest among citizens leads to erupting violence.

Peter Turchin, a professor of ecology and mathematics at the University of Connecticut, has been studying history as if it were a science and, by analysing past societies, has concluded the current societal norms are nearing their end.

Prof Turchin has developed a subject known as “cliodynamics” which analyses history as a science, which includes predictions and models based on past experiences.

The Russian-American scientist has been building his model for years, but states the election of Donald Trump as President of the US will accelerate the negative trends, leading to a peak in turmoil in 2020.

He highlights the “elite overproduction” – where the rich get richer – as another exacerbating feature of the rising tensions and will lead to “ideological polarisation and fragmentation of the political class.”

Writing a piece for Phys.org, Mr Turchin said: “My model indicated that social instability and political violence would peak in the 2020s.

“The presidential election which we have experienced, unfortunately, confirms this forecast. 

“We seem to be well on track for the 2020s instability peak. And although the election is over, the deep structural forces that brought us the current political crisis have not gone away. 

“If anything, the negative trends seem to be accelerating.”

Off The Buses April 5th 2020

Five London bus workers have now died after contracting Covid-19, according to the Unite trade union, as the capital’s mayor Sadiq Khan is expected to come under increasing pressure to suspend public transport as part of social distancing measures.

Keeping buses and the Tube running enables essential services personnel including NHS staff to get to work but also places anyone who uses them at greater risk of exposure to the coronavirus due to the close proximity passengers are forced into during travel. “Each of these deaths is a terrible tragedy,” the union’s regional secretary Peter Kavanagh said in a statement. 
“Unite will assist the families of our members in every possible way during this terrible time. “Unite has been working continuously with Transport for London (TfL) and the operators to ensure the safety of drivers and others in the industry who are performing a heroic job in getting NHS and care workers to their places of work. 

Comment This crazy greedy global economy, with sanctuary city London just one of the interconnected outcomes, has been heading for disaster from the ‘get go’. The implications of this bus ban idea are incredible. London is a dirty nasty place, where the hideously poor live cheeck by jowl with the disgustingly rich. There are nearly 8 billion people in the world, with more and more nature being destroyed and consumed because of this. the average African woman has 15 babies. Poverty and disease are endemic there. A few rich African families collude with the global elite, of which they are a part.

This tiny minority owns and controls more of the wealth than the rest of the world put together. It follows that, with their history of lying and abusing the masses, they will not be making benign decisions about our future.

Free movement was always about their interests, working like a virus within the touchy feelie liberal agenda setting media and political bodies. George Soros is a prime xample of this virus.

I know London well, have done since the 1950s. I remember the trolley buses ( scrapped by idiots in favour of bigger diesel Routemasters ) and bomb sites. I used to live and work there in The City, was a post grad student at London University. Up until last year, I drove my truck into the centre at least twice a week. The place is hideously pretentious and overdeveloped. Now we have lockdown. What a sick joke. Robert Cook

Scaremongers Are Us – Robert Cook. April 4th 2020

The following article was published today by ‘Independent’ ( sic ) journalist Colin Drury.

Coronavirus news you may have missed overnight: WHO says more young people dying as UK officials fear lockdown rule-breaking

But one government advisor says restrictions should be lifted – because they will cause more harm than pandemic itself

The coronavirus pandemic continues to cause chaos across the UK and around the world. Here’s your morning briefing of everything you may have missed overnight.

Fears Brits will flout lockdown rules for glorious weekend weather…

Ministers fear the coronavirus lockdown could be ignored by thousands of Brits this weekend as they seek to make the most of the forecasted sunshine.

Such are the concerns that the glorious weather will attract crowds to parks, beauty spots and beaches that Boris Johnson made a personal plea for people not to flout Covid-19 rules on Friday.

“There maybe just a temptation to get out there, hang out and start to break the regulations,” he said. “I just urge you not to do that. Please, please stick with the guidance now.”

And, in the interview with The Times, he suggested that the eventual economic damage of the restrictions could lead to even more long-term health problems and deaths.

New Nightingale Hospital may not be needed as urgently as thought

The new 4,000-bed Nightingale Hospital built in London’s ExCel Centre may not take patients as early as initially planned after it emerged existing intensive care facilities in the capital are coping better with the coronavirus than predicted.

Initial models suggested the emergency centre – officially opened on Friday – would start taking people immediately.

But it will now be early next week before the first patients arrive.

An NHS spokesperson said: “Nightingale London is ready to accept patients from today, but London is currently coping with demand. We obviously can’t predict when it will be needed but it’s there if and when it is.”

The monarch will address the coronavirus crisis in a special televised broadcast to the country and Commonwealth on Sunday evening, Buckingham Palace has announced.

Questions had been growing about if the head of state would make a public statement about the unprecedented events caused by the pandemic.

Now, officials have revealed the Queen has already recorded a special message at Windsor Castle, where she and her husband Prince Philip have been since 19 March.

It will be aired at 8pm on Sunday.

More and more young people dying warns WHO

Increasing numbers of younger people are falling seriously ill or being killed by coronavirus, the World Health Organization (WHO) has warned.

Officials said they were trying to “better understand” why apparently healthy patients aged under 60 ended up in intensive care with the disease.

“Overall, most of the people who are experiencing severe disease and ending up in intensive care units are people of older age, and are people who have underlying conditions,” said Dr Maria Van Kerkhove. “But what we are seeing in some countries, individuals who are in their 30s, 40s and 50s who are in ICUs and have died. We are seeing more and more younger individuals who are experiencing severe disease.”

Americans told to wear face masks – but Trump won’t bother

New health guidelines issued in the US are urging people to wear face masks to prevent the spread of Covid-19 – but Donald Trump has said he will not be following the advice.

The president said he would not want to greet “presidents, prime ministers, dictators, kings, queens” in the Oval Office while wearing one.

“You do not have to do it,” he said of the official advice. “I don’t think I’m going to be doing it.”

The guidelines were issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the government’s public health advisory agency, and came as the US reported nearly 7,000 had died from the coronavirus.

Comment A Light in The Dark April 4th 2020

There should be absolutely no doubt that there will be more health problems and deaths than the lock down could – by the most doctored or alleged figures – could be argued to have saved.  There are now millions unemployed in the U.S alone.  The global economy is hideously interwoven and inter reliant. There is the root cause of the problem.

When the U.S.A closed its doors in 1929, it was accountable for 80 % of world trade. The Great Depression had begun and only Nazism and World War Two ended it.  Millions died in that war, disease was rife in the ruins.

I came from a poor home into an elite university when universities were elitist, not the mechanism for disguising unemployment or educating rich foreigners that they have become.  My student contemporaries were spoiled and obnoxious, always protesting about something.  Then came graduation day, hair was cut, suits put on.  Next came their baby steps on the public service and professional ladder. Many going into politics, all to make money and fake concern for others less privileged.

These are the people who turned their children into the liberal/feminists who infest the system today.  They have never done real jobs.  Politics became a career during the Thatcher era, which began the age of spin and live TV Coverage.  Politicians became celebs, image was everything.  So then along came top poseur Tony Blair, just when I thought there could be nothing more dangerous than Thatcher.

As I write, news that Boris Johnson has coronavirus symptoms. She lives in London, the sanctuary city hotspot. Her case will be used to justify tougher and longer lock down. Blairites and their descendants think they are special.  The majority of people in the U.S, Boris’s birthplace, are poor.  Idiots in Britain think they are all rich because of the glitzy folk they see on TV, where what they wear, relationships and promotion matter only. This reminds me of a stupid posh girl in one of my U.S Economic History seminars back in 1973.  

She asked U.S lecturer wonderful Dr Alan O’Day,, who was using pop culture to bring history to life : ‘Why were all the Hollywood films of the 1930s about glamour and rich people ? Why not poor folk ? ‘  I cut straight in, mentioning the memorable ‘The Grapes of Wraith’ but pointing out that most who could afford the cinema wanted to escape from everyday life and sights of poverty, into a world of glamour. The girl then went on to make a complaining against Alan, for wandering off the curriculum.  He never played the game and never got tenure- but he was a big influence on me.

No doubt that stupid girl went on to marry a stupid out of touch selfish rich boy, then produced off springs of themselves to carry on careers like their parents. They will be running the system today.  No wonder I ended up the redundant old truck driver that I have become today.

So, these offspring are the politicians, advisers and professionals running the show today.  As in the U.S, most British are poor.  Mass immigration has done wonders for the well off, while impoverishing the natives. Mealy mouther politicians get so offended when these low life complain.  They have no idea what life is like living in the tiniest houses and tower block battery farms that could turn into a towering inferno, where the inhabitants will be told to stay indoors while the fire rages.

So we have this ‘ Independent’ ( sic ) article giving us more WHO cr-p about the virus killing more young people. WHO has been preoccupied with old Third World miseries since the old empires collapsed.  Disease has been rife.  

The reason for the British and U.S worrying about Africa and Latin America is because they want to shut Russia and China out. Africa stands to benefit too much from China’s real infrastructure projects.  The west has much to fear from Russia and China getting its hands on African resources in return.  Out elite prefers poverty, religion, mass ignorance, cheap labour imports pretending to be refugees and disease on that continent, which is why Lord Carrington put Robert Mugabe in post.  

Now young people dying there and in Latin America because their bodies are already too weak from famine and slavery, become canon fodder to support this vile tyranny of lock down, which is causing so many economic, health and social problems that can only get very much worse world wide.  

There used to be a joke that an expert is a drip under pressure ( drip in my working class parlance means idiot, so ex spurt ). Experts inside and outside the rich peoples media, are the ones driving this insanity.  One wonders if they and their paymasters are looking for a little more lebensraum, as Hitler used to call it.  Robert Cook

Cause,Effect, Consequences April 4th 2020, by Robert Cook

The following article, after this one, is very long and is very much about obfuscation and following government instructions. It is alarmist, offering no analysis. This articles hopes tp put matters in context.

These days, we here much about what the science says without any explanation of what the science is. When two youngish female nurses die, we are told about their children. We are not told that they could have caught the virus outside of the hospital, or that Walsall and Margate have high migrant populations.

We must believe that when a few young folk die that they are as much at risk as the elderly with pre existing medical conditions. We must buckle down, not worrying about our jobs, houses or family prospects. The places these two women livd in must not entter the equation. Still, they should if we want the truth of cause and effect. Margate is no longer the quaint seaside town that my Great Unlce Tom migrated to in the 1920s. it is on the Kent Coast where the illegals land. Walsall is a high density area, with densely populated areas of poorly paid Asian communities, may very run down.

Good science, be it natural or social, is about clarity, honesty, considering and experimenting with all variables. It does not get anywhere near truth if the answers are decided in advance, or the key variables within the global economy are excluded to keep the elite, ethnic/religious minorities, global economy free movement and politicians out of the equation.

In this context, no true scientist would be as certain as the current ones advising government. Consequently, we cannot be believe their statements about where Corona virus started, why, and how it spreads.

As for their advice that if you have it, don’t go to the doctor or hospital, go on line, it is absurd. This is all the more so because the majority of cases are among the elderly, including the cruise ship elite, those living in squalid high density areas with which this country abounds and those with pre existing medical conditions.

As for the NHS, clapping its workers will solve nothing except for offering the drug of deluded solidarity and mass distraction.. The NHS is more about being clapped out than clapping.

Another nightmare about this so called crisis- it is actually just an outcome of global economics with consequent overpopulation, too much war, too much religion, too much eploitation and mass ignorance- is the global food chain.

Countries like Britain are self sufficient in far too little. For years, I have worked in the hospitality industry, driving a lorry/truck delivering food to hotels, pubs and restaurants all over Britain. This sector accounted for 40 % of all food delivered and consumed. Foreign trucks queued for hour, waiting to stock our warehouse. Now it is dead, with consequent unemployment of thousands, including myself. Most of the food came in from Europe and further afield. The supply chain is broken, with demand on supermarkets rising.

The ruling elite in politics, big business and finance are not sharing the suffering and uncertainty. Their daily bulletin’s advice and police runnning dogs are about protecting them. They are impervious to the health and crime ineveitabilities bound to come. They are either morons, or not being honest about the virus.

All they want now is more numbers to back their prediction of 250,000 deaths, fiddling the figures and burying the true causes, along with the dead. If that means killing much of the British and world economy, so be it. The Third World and Middle East are on fire for some key resons, but Corona Viris is a catch all excuse for the global economic destrution caused by decades of elite global greed.

The science does not want to talk about that. Cause, Effect, Consequences Resolve should be the buzz words, not the police’s moronic mantra, Engage, Explain, Encourage, and Enforce. As matters stand, there can be no logical long term solution to this. The bottom 20% of British people pay 40 % of combined direct and indirect taxes, a lot of it on escapists booze. The system is broken. If the elite have a plan for a new one you can bet it will be all about them. More of the masses will die, but not from Corona, whatever lies they tell us.

They are the ones taking the pain and the strain- that includes thanks to what corrupt police have done to me, but that is another story. Even so, that story, with all its experiences, has given more understanding of what a corrupt incompetent self serving elite has gotten us into this mess, and why they cannot be trusted to get us out.

The goal posts will keep moving, so we will never win. The Hunger Games may soon happen for real, if not so already . Bloated cops will relish opportunities to bully more, doing their best to show how Coronavirus policies exposes the British Police State from top to bottom.

UK’s coronavirus death toll rises by 684 in biggest jump yet April 3rd 2020 Chris Kitching – Mirror – 03 April 2020

The UK’s coronavirus death toll has soared to 3,605 after 684 patients died in just 24 hours – the biggest single day increase yet.
The previous total stood at 2,921 deaths.
The number of confirmed cases has increased to 38,168 after 4,450 more people tested positive.
Most of the deaths have been in England (3,244), followed by Scotland (172), Wales (141) and Northern Ireland (48).

Two NHS nurses, who were both mothers in their 30s with three young children, are among the latest patients to die after battling Covid-19 in hospital.
The grim news came as Health Secretary Matt Hancock, who is back at work after battling the virus, said the Government expects the virus to peak in Britain in the next few weeks and Prime Minister Boris Johnson urged people to stick with social distancing to flatten the curve.
The Department of Health said: “As of 9am on 3 April 2020, 173,784 people have been tested, of which 38,168 were confirmed positive.
“As of 5pm on 2 April 2020, of those hospitalised in the UK who tested positive for coronavirus, 3,605 have died.”
Public Health England said 11,764 tests were carried out on Thursday in England, while testing capacity for inpatient care in the country currently stands at 12,799 tests per day.
Two NHS nurses were among the latest patients to die.

Mum-of-three Areema Nasreen, 36, was in intensive care on a ventilator after testing positive for the virus.
She worked at Walsall Manor Hospital in the West Midlands.
In Kent, Aimee O’Rourke, 38, died at the Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother Hospital in Margate, where she worked.
The mum-of-three was hailed as a “brave angel” as her family said in a tribute: “Aimee was a beautiful woman and a valued NHS nurse.”

Corona Virus Measures promote health risk fly tipping April 3rd 2020

Fly-tipping has surged by up to 300% in some parts of the country as a result of the coronavirus crisis.

The closure of recycling sites has seen people dump household waste on roadsides, lanes, parks and fields.

Officials say people are taking rubbish to recycling centres but when they find them closed are dumping it outside instead.

One council says the amount of waste fly-tipped in its area has surged three-fold in recent weeks.

Municipal rubbish dumps are closed and a growing number of councils have cut collections of food and garden waste in response to the coronavirus outbreak.

We’ve noticed an increase in fly-tipping since the household recycling sites closed due to the coronavirus. Please avoid this as it is poses a health risk and creates unnecessary pressure for our waste team. You could also face a large fine if caught. https://t.co/Jl6A9wnK0X pic.twitter.com/9c7mSRqHiL— West Oxfordshire District Council (@WodcNews) March 30, 2020

West Oxfordshire District Council shared pictures on social media of rubbish dumped in a supermarket car park near recycling bins, urging people not to dump waste in communal recycling areas as they have to be cleared every day by the council’s waste team, using valuable resources.

A spokesman for the council said: “We have not calculated the exact tonnage data as yet but we can say we have seen a threefold increase in items at key sites which is forcing us to carry out additional collections with a dedicated crew and truck.

“It’s a mixture of items. I can’t speak for other councils but I am sure the situation is being replicated across Oxon following the closure of the household recycling centres.”

Commenting on the death of Ms Nasreen, Mr Hancock said: “I pay tribute to the NHS staff who’ve died serving the NHS, serving the nation.
“It shows the incredible bravery of every member of the NHS who goes into work knowing that these dangers are there.
“I think it is a testament to every doctor and nurse and paramedic and other health professional who is working in the NHS in these difficult times.
“And I think the whole nation is grateful.”
About 35,000 front-line NHS staff are not currently in work due to coronavirus, said Mr Hancock.
He said testing figures for health staff “should” rise to thousands a day in the next few weeks.
The Government has set a goal of testing 100,000 people a day across the whole of the UK by the end of April following widespread criticism of its testing strategy.
The Prime Minister’s spokesman said the 5,000-plus NHS staff who had been tested had mainly been tested at new testing sites.

A total of 172 patients have died in Scotland after testing positive for coronavirus, up by 46 from 126 on Thursday.
3,001 people have now tested positive for the virus in Scotland, up from 2,602 the day before.
Officials said 176 people are in intensive care with coronavirus or coronavirus symptoms, and increase of 14 on Thursday.
First Minister Nicola Sturgeon warned: “I want to be very clear that nothing I have seen gives me any basis whatsoever for predicting the virus will peak as early as a week’s time here in Scotland.”

The development means Ismail’s mother and six siblings are forced to self-isolate and cannot attend his funeral in Brixton on Friday, Mark Stephenson said.
Meanwhile, Prince Charles, who tested positive for coronavirus last month, officially opened the NHS Nightingale Hospital at the ExCeL centre in east London.
The Prince of Wales, 71, appeared via video-link from his Scottish home of Birkhall and spoke to those gathered at the entrance of the new temporary hospital.
He said: “It is without doubt a spectacular and almost unbelievable feat of work in every sense, from its speed of construction – in just nine days as we’ve heard – to its size and the skills of those who have created it.

“An example, if ever one was needed, of how the impossible could be made possible and how we can achieve the unthinkable through human will and ingenuity.”
Charles added: “The creation of this hospital is above all the result of an extraordinary collaboration and partnership between NHS managers, the military and all those involved to create a centre on a scale that has never been seen before in the United Kingdom.
“To convert one of the largest national conference centres into a field hospital, starting with 500 beds with a potential of 4,000, is quite frankly incredible.”
The prince and Mr Hancock both recently ended self-isolation after contracting the virus and Charles commented on the fact they had recovered.
He said: “Now I was one of the lucky ones to have Covid-19 relatively mildly and if I may say so I’m so glad to see the Secretary of State has also recovered, but for some it will be a much harder journey.”
Shortly after he spoke, Buckingham Palace confirmed the Queen has recorded a special broadcast on the coronavirus outbreak to be broadcast on Sunday night.
Previously, it was said that the 93-year-old monarch, who is isolating with Prince Philip, 98, at Windsor Castle, was preparing to make a televised address to calm the nation’s nerves, but was waiting for the “right moment” to address the country.
Mr Hancock, meanwhile, praised all those involved in the setting up of the hospital, adding the “extraordinary project”, the core of which was completed in just nine days, was a “testament to the work and the brilliance of the many people involved”.

He also praised the NHS and the way its staff are dealing with the virus crisis.
The Health Secretary said: “In these troubled times with this invisible killer stalking the whole world, the fact that in this country we have the NHS is even more valuable than before.”
Asked about the number of ventilators currently in use and how many are expected to arrive next week, Mr Hancock said: “We’ve obviously got a big programme to ramp up the number of ventilators and we now have more ventilators than we had before.
“And we’re going to need them for this hospital and I’m just going to go and have a look at that now.”
Pressed for exact numbers, Mr Hancock did not respond.

Speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Today programme earlier, Mr Hancock said it is unclear whether he is now immune to Covid-19.
He described having coronavirus as a “pretty unpleasant experience” with an “incredibly” sore throat and a feeling of “having glass in my throat”.
He said he has lost half a stone in weight.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson remained in isolation in Downing Street after testing positive for the virus.
He was “feeling better” but still had a fever on Friday.

In a video on social media, the Prime Minister urged the public to stick with social distancing and not be tempted to “hang out” in the warmer weather predicted for this weekend.
“In my own case, although I’m feeling better and I’ve done my seven days of isolation, alas I still have one of the symptoms, a minor symptom, I still still have a temperature,” he said.
“So, in accordance with government advice I must continue my self-isolation until that symptom itself goes.”
Mr Johnson said people must not be tempted to break social distancing rules as the weather warms up even if they were going “a bit stir crazy”
In England, more than 26.7 million units of personal protection equipment (PPE) were delivered to 281 NHS “trusts and providers” on Thursday, Downing Street confirmed.

Mr Johnson’s spokesman said: “That included 7.8 million aprons, 1.7 million masks and 12.4 million gloves.”
It follows the new guidance issued by Public Health England about the level of protection health staff should wear depending on the patient situation.
There would be no new guidance published on the public wearing masks or face coverings when out of the house, said the spokesman.
The spokesman said “surveillance” of the population to determine the spread of coronavirus was ongoing, with 3,500 antibody tests carried out per week.
“This is a population surveillance programme which we have been carrying out since February,” said the spokesman.

“It is being done by Public Health England at their campus which is at Porton Down.
“We currently have capacity for 3,500 of these surveillance tests to be carried out this week which is enough for small-scale population sampling.”
Two newly-planned temporary hospital sites have been agreed at the University of the West of England and the Harrogate Convention Centre.
They will join other sites due to open at Birmingham’s National Exhibition Centre and Manchester’s Central Complex.
Construction of a temporary hospital called the NHS Louisa Jordan is underway in Glasgow.

Cllr Norman MacRae, cabinet member for the environment, said: “While we have some sympathy with residents who may have quantities of waste building up, we must emphasise that for everyone’s safety please refrain from dumping it in public spaces.

“This places an unnecessary additional workload on our cleaning teams and is not acceptable at any time let alone the current coronavirus situation.

Throwing out baby with the bath water. April 3rd 2020

The health effects of shutting down the UK economy may kill more people than the coronavirus itself, experts have warned. 

In a historic press conference on Monday the prime minister, Boris Johnson, urged the public to stay away from pubs, restaurants and theatres and work from home in a bid to stop large numbers of people contracting the virus. 

However, the economic consequences of such an approach are likely to be huge, despite Chancellor Rishi Sunak’s £330 billion bail out. 

The government’s recommendations were based on a report by disease modelling experts at Imperial College, London that showed that if the government pursued a more softly-softly “mitigation” approach the virus would kill 250,000 people. 

But under a more aggressive “disease suppression” scenario that number would fall to 20,000.

Professor François Balloux, chair in computational biology at University College, London said that the Imperial modelling did not take into account the social and economic consequences of the severe restrictions that have been imposed on the day-to-day lives of many people in the UK – and the rest of Europe.

There is a strong correlation between life expectancy and the economy, he said.

“If you go to Somalia life expectancy is not the same as in the UK or Europe and the reason is the economy. If you trash the economy you trash the health system and education – and if you trash the health system and education you trash life expectancy,” he said.

He acknowledged that the government had to make a “horrible” choice between having “250,000 deaths in the short term or a bigger number over a longer period”.

“The government couldn’t do it – it would be considered so cynical and unethical,” he said. 

But he added: “You cannot neglect the economy – it’s a bit short sighted to say you choose between crashing the economy and saving lives but we don’t have the luxury of making that choice. We have to minimise loss of life but we also have to minimise the loss to the economy,” he said.

Mortality often increases during recessions with study in the Lancet of the effects of a recession in Brazil between 2014 and 2016 showing that as the unemployment rate increased so did the mortality rate. The excess deaths mainly due to cancer and cardiovascular disease.

Prof Balloux said that on top of these economic deaths, health services were still likely to be overwhelmed with coronavirus patients and less able to cope.

“There will still be people crashing their cars, women giving birth and having minor problems – hospitals are already overstretched but minor problems could really get worse.

“Some countries are slightly better prepared – they have more health care capacity but you can have the best health care in the world but when it’s overwhelmed it won’t be the best,” said.

Dr Bharat Pankhania, senior clinical lecturer at the University of Exeter, said it would be crucial to monitor the effect of economic losses on death rates.

“The economic impact is huge and in itself will result in lives lost, just as we have seen the excess loss of life further to the austerity we have had over the last 10 years,” he said.

However, he said it would be hard to identify deaths associated with economic losses because they would occur more gradually.

“These happen in isolation and are not dramatic, more of an almost invisible event and certainly not recorded as a mitigating factor in the official records,” he said.

A recent report by Professor Sir Michael Marmot, an expert in health inequality at University College, London showed that life expectancy in England had “flatlined” over recent years with a “lost decade” of austerity to blame.

Sir Michael told the Telegraph that any coronavirus-related economic crash would hit the poorest hardest.

Firstly, people in manual or service jobs would be unable to work from home so would be unable to follow “social distancing” recommendations and secondly poorer people tend to have worse health, he said.

“If, given infection, presence of sickness increases the seriousness of Covid-19, there could well be a higher death rate in people at prior social disadvantage,” he said. 

He added that people at the bottom of the income curve will be “acutely vulnerable to the effects of the inevitable economic downturn.

Corona Viris On The Buses April 3rd 2020

Bus companies have been handed a £167million bailout to keep vital services running during the coronavirus crisis.
Passenger numbers have plummeted since Boris Johnson ordered people to stay at home, with only “key workers” allowed to travel during the Covid-19 lockdown.

The huge drop in commuters has piled pressure on operators.
But ministers are desperate for buses to stay on the roads to ferry staff to shops, hospitals and other essential workplaces – and for people who need to travel to buy food.

Announcing the latest Government bailout, Transport Secretary Grant Shapps said: “We have been very clear during the outbreak that the best way to stop the spread of the virus and protect the NHS is to stay at home if possible.

“Our buses are a lifeline for people who need to travel for work or to buy food – including our emergency services and NHS staff – and it’s absolutely vital we do all we can to keep the sector running.
“This multimillion-pound investment will protect crucial local transport links across England, bolstering the sector and minimising disruption for passengers in the long term.” 

The Bus Services Support Grant will be paid over three months and comes on top of £200million already being poured into buses.
Some £30million which had been earmarked for new services will instead go to councils to maintain existing services – taking the total amount for buses to nearly £400million.
However, bus services were hammered during a decade of austerity.

Firms will be allowed to run half of their normal services, meaning passengers can maintain “social distancing” of at least two metres.
Confederation of Passenger Transport chief executive Graham Vidler said: “Bus operators of all sizes across the country are providing an essential service at a time of national emergency, and we thank the thousands of staff doing an incredible job to keep routes running.
“This funding is designed to plug the gap between the costs of running essential routes and revenue currently being received, and will help the country through the outbreak by allowing critical journeys to continue.”

Comment Britain’s bus service network, like all British key infrastructure, was decimated during the Thatcher Major years of government. Offically the National Bus Company and urban transport systems like ‘London Transport’ were privatised for efficiency reasons.

In reality it was for the greedy dogma of Thatcherite Tories and their globalist mentality – anything for money. So, assets were sold at knock down prices to companies like ‘Stagecoach’ and ‘Arriva’. Town Centre bus depots were sold for profitable housing, with bus stations ever more seedy and dangerous at night.

One can only admire the founders of those empires, but it made already struggling services worse, fares rose, passengers dropped, bus conductors disappeared totally, with the vehicles becoming dirtier inside and out, and often breaking down.

Clapped Out Country in a Clapped out Global Society/Ecomomy April 3rd 2020

No 10 is facing fresh questions over its coronavirus testing plan, as it emerged that the government is hoping to exit the lockdown through controversial “immunity passports” and antibody tests that are still not proven to work. Hancock revealed that certificates to prove someone is immune to the virus could allow some of the population to go back to work. | The Guardian In other measures, the Chancellor has announced a wider package to assist firms affected by the coronavirus crisis

Millions of Britons stood in their front doors or came out on balconies again to applaud the NHS coronavirus heroes. Boris Johnson even emerged from his self-isolation to appear in the doorway to Number 10 to join in the event. | Mirror As the nation lauded their heroes , the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge called staff at Queen’s Hospital Burton on Wednesday and thanked the doctors and nurses for their ‘different level’ of work. | Yahoo News An array of the industry’s leading celebrities also joined forces to pay tribute to NHS workers for risking their lives everyday amid the coronavirus pandemic. | Daily Mail.

Comment Britain’s love rules and regulations. They also respond well to martial music and ritual. Hancock is promising more money to business, but that won’t solve the job losses and hardship, nor will it cope with inveitable social problems. The idiocy and brazeness of the silly ‘hand clapping for the NHS ritual, amazes, appalls and scares me.

Now we are going to be offered a government pass after testing to prove we don’t have the virus. What a bureaucratic time wasting ritual that is going to be,’follow the red tape’ etc.

We are not going to escape from all this. The media and the left would go apoplectic if the government tried to, so would the well paid so called experts, with ‘the science tells us mantra ‘ feeding off and prolonging this so called crisis.

It transpires that government is being guided by Imperial College’s model based on the 1917 Spanish Flu epidemic. This mutated into a deadly second phase, hitting and killing apparrently recovered patients .

This is either total bullsh-t or they know more about this virus’s origins than they are going to tell us. Another good reason for them to obfuscate and pass of all manner of deaths as ‘probably corona virus’ until they get up to the right predicted numbers, saving their highly paid for skins.

When it comes to politics and their elite agenda setters, the tail most definitely wags the dog. If the sainted NHS was a road vehicle it would have been impounded and scrapped long ago. It was bad enough before Thatcher and Blair started carving it up for rich parasites. We had the trusts and Brown’s pfi on the top of years of bureuacratic bullsh-t and overpaid GP sub contactors.

Our GPs have never been directly employed by the NHS. The number of female doctors exceeds 50 %, but most only want to work part time. They know how to feed off the system which has caused unnecessary deaths for years. We have been importing incompetent foreign doctors with language limitations. One such person was involved in my mother being fatlaly negelcted in a city hospital.

The system failed and killed both my parents, has done myself and two sons great harm, but that is another story. The NHS are being used as a distraction from this appalling government and elite caused national disaster which is inextricably linked to globalisation and elite global conflict for more control of resources and of the worlds stupid and gullible masses. Worshipping the NHS is another manifestation of Britain’s enthisiasm for religious delusion.

Further afield, U.S has recorded 6.6 million unemployed and rising. Confidence is lower than in the 1920s. Italy reports youths mugging old folk for food because they are starving. Travellers are stranded all around the world due to severe reduction in flights and lockdown rules. New Zealand currently permits no exits. Robert Cook

Police have been told to use enforcement measures during the coronavirus lockdown as a last resort amid a row over “overzealous” behaviour by some officers. April 2nd 2020

On Thursday police were given new powers under an emergency law to serve on the spot fines and disperse gatherings of more than two people.

Powers under the emergency law contradicted statements made by government officials about what they wanted the police to do and was a source of confusion for UK police forces.

Most recently Derbyshire Police came under fire for using drones to film people visiting rural beauty spots while North Yorkshire Police set up checkpoints to stop vehicles and ask drivers if their journey were essential.

A spokesman from the National Police Chiefs Council (NPCC) told the Standard a briefing published on the College of Policing’s website late on Tuesday was not an update of the guidelines but information that UK police forces had already been presented with on Thursday when the emergency law came into effect.

He said the advice given to officers assumes they will “only use enforcement in a last resort” when ensuring people are following the coronavirus lockdown measures.

The briefing states the initial police response should be to encourage “voluntary compliance” and officers are to follow our-step escalation principles of engage, explain, encourage and enforce.

Comment How patronising, how sinisiter, how police state. The elite either have a hidden agenda or know this virus is a highly contagious with a germ warfare dynamic. With 36,000 BA staff among others, being laid off at taxpayer’s expense, there has to be a very serious explanation for this – unless our Euro rulers are utterly insane or incompetent.Whatever, it doesn’t look good. by far the great majority of the infected an are or were very old and/or suffering from previous medical conditions.

Shutting down so much of the economy in the name of protecting and venerating our decrepit appalling wastful NHS is sucking the lifeblood from younger generations and destroying their future. These singalongs are so revolting, pumped out by pampered overpaid patronising BBC folk.

Corona Virus & Global Economy Made Simple  April 2^nd 2020

There is no official admission that the corona virus outbreak has anything to do with the global economy and the elite decisions which facilitated and operated that economic system at the time.

Some of us saw the dangers when computers took over in the 1980s.  As a young maths teacher, I questioned the rising influence of computers, so a senior colleague called me a Luddite.

The world wide chaos caused by the new virus says it all in my favour. This vaunted global economy has three levels corresponding to the former first, second and third world model from which it has evolved due to speedier communications by air, sea and the airwaves.  

This is the satellite age, so if the satellites failed the outcome would be even more terrible and speedier.  But this fragile system behind the concentration of the world’s wealth and power in so dangerously few hands is not questioned by our mainstream media.  In Italy,

the locked down population are at breaking point with food theft on the rise.  Their P.M is bleating that the EU won’t help and this proves it is not a union.  At last you have it !  The EU is a union of the elite, not of nations.  It is an empire.  

In France, the lock down is causing a rise in domestic violence.  But Britain’s BBC ( Big Brother Broadcasting ) fixates on national hand clapping in support of our corrupt police and an NHS which is not equipped to cope.  The NHS is appalling.  

For years nearly half of all spending increases have gone to wage rises. On top of that, there is a top heavy in fighting management system.  The tail has been wagging the dog for years.

Mass immigration, which cannot be questioned for PC reasons and health tourists have facilitated the import and spread of illness.  It has also opened the door to germ warfare as part of the global elite infighting – which has so much to do with Middle Eastern fuelled terrorism.

The latter region is dominated by medieval repressive religion, where morons preach they are safe because they worship Allah.  To comment here is to risk jail.  One must also not comment on the global economy linked near 20 years of bombing, killing, maiming and disease spreading caused by British U.S alliance and their lackeys in that region.

Paranoia is rife in the west about Russia, China and Iran.  Hence all the trade blockades and media propaganda. Hence all the arms spending and war profiteering.  

The mealy mouthed hypocrites, including upper middle class white feminists obsessed with their ideological gender superiority, are lackeys to what is a Third World War no more moral than the first two such wars.  Religious garbage feeds, like all propaganda, on fear.

Level 1. Ist World Mainly Services

Level 2. Chinese/Russia Alliance Mainly Manufactured Goods

Level 3. Mainly Raw Materials and Crops

Looking at all of this from Britain, one sees the hidden intent of our elite / expert led lock-down.  Personally, I think our police are corrupt and vile.  However, using them to reinforce the lock-down will do nothing to improve their reputation and behaviour.  

I am sure the majority of their corrupt overpaid perspectivist ec thinking command and control senior officers will be enjoying increased power and status.  But the terrible truth is, they only got the job because their primary skill is office politics and back stabbing worthier colleagues.  So the good ones in the front line will take the blame for this impossible situation which will back fire terribly on our elite rulers.  

When NASA scientist saw evidence of life on Mars and a massive nuclear ex[explosion, the decided very quickly to backtrack because it was to frightening for the population that Martians destroyed their planet and themselves.

The global economy is very simple to understand using set theory, which I used to teach years ago.

Set or level one are the old first world.  Economic activity here is mainly services, predominately Finance, Banking, public services like health and police ( over 50s of Britain’s economy), hospitality, restaurants, transport, various repair services, retail and all important mainstream media.  

Manufacturing and heavy industry has been in decline since the Thatcher Governments decided it would benefit their fellow rich to move them abroad, promoting unemployment, family breakdown, drug, alcohol and crime. The public services expanded accordingly.

Like other old industrial nations, but more extreme, Britain needed more global connections to wheel and deal.  It also needed as many of the ever expanding African surplus population to keep wages down and profits up. The increased lower class population also pushed prices up, most seriously for housing and food.  Homelessness went off the scale. Thatcherite Tony Blair was a driving , pronouncing that Britain was to become the Hong Kong of Europe.

For a long time, after the Berlin Wall came down in 1990, all was well, with drunken Yeltsin’s best friend with sex pest BILL Clinton, favoured.  Britain’s money grabbing elite loved the oligarchs and gangsters who ripped of Russian State assets under Yeltsin,  They bought up football clubs. Media  and property.  Then came Putin reviving nationalism.  The U.S fought against Europe buying his energy, sanctions tightened, driving him closer to China.  Anglo America had been milking China’s slaves for cheap goods, selling them assets and buying their stuff before Trump started a trade war, and fuelling conflict over Hong Kong.  Regime change in Russia and China were urgent causes for the Anglo Americans, with Syria becoming the latest battle ground to cut Russia down.

But how could they cut loose ?  Meanwhile Russia and China were involved building infrastructure in Africa and Pakistan.  They even offered to build Britain’s HS2 at a fraction of the cost and in a quarter of the time.

At the bottom of the pile, set three, was the bread basket Africa, becoming a basket case under western placemen dictators like Mugabee.  That continent had been ruthlessly exploited by the west, since the days of British Empire.  Now it was of massive interest to the greedy in fighting western rapacious elites.  So the massive tentacles of the global economy grew more and more tentacles, strangling reason.  Latin America was suffering more from U.S led paranoia about socialism.  Rich people come first.  

The old crap about God was good for breeding more Latinos to enhance breeding and all the other deceptions.  Democrats went mad when Trump threatened to build a wall to keep these folk out.  Cheap labour is good fr rich people.  Latin Americas drug lords also help to sedate the masses.  Remember the British immigrants used the common cold to wipe out millions of the continents native Indians.  The measles were used to kill Amazonians in the way of the U.S funded Pan American highway.

So we have level one, rich in labour replacing and people monitoring technology, dependent on the worlds poor for cheap resources and manufactured goods, including drugs and services, fighting it out for all of this and wanting to control the supply chain.  Of course it is possible the west let this lose, planting it in China.  China certainly would not have done anything so self destructive.  Whatever, we see a global economy based on greed, guess work, propaganda, control, ignorance and stupidity- with an ever increasing of elite laws in the ludicrous name of democracy.  

We have a level of interdependence that can only benefit the well stocked rich at the expense of the worlds poor.  Nations like Britain are brainwashed by school and elite owned and run media.  Anyone criticising the latest Corona Virus measure will be labelled insane or a Russian agent.  Unemployment is predicted as becoming worse than the 1980s. In a feminised western culture, where women are told to put careers first so birth rates fall, the argument for migration from poor goes on has been enhanced. With rising unemployment the consequences are already dire.  It is going to be a lot worse, and I am not talking about the virus.  So there as to be a hidden agenda.  The U.S trying to use this as another attempt to get Guido into Venezuela and isolate Iran. We have an economy where any part of it sneezes , the whole interwoven economy catches the virus and dies. Without globalisation run by liars, theives and other morons, this so called crisis could not have happened.

As people used to say to carelessly dressed women years ago ‘Madam, your slip is showing.’ There is no economic theory from the old school to explain all of this.  It is certainly not about saving the lives of anyone except the elite. The only theory one needs is RUTHLESS GREED.  These days, elite funded economy make the theory up after the event- what we economists used to call ex post facto analyis, as with a game of foortball.  In this game, the masses are the football, one giant blob of easily booted about frightened fools.  Robert Cook

Have these people been tested for coronavirus. If we can’t travel few miles without police checks, why are these internationalist Brits allowed to? April 2nd 2020

The first charter flight in the £75m coronavirus rescue operation will leave Algeria on 2 April with departures from South Africa, Nepal and India to follow.

As the foreign secretary Dominic Raab and the transport secretary Grant Shapps continue negotiations to get a series of charter flights to help the most vulnerable stranded UK nationals, British embassies around the world disclosed details of operations underway. There are thought to be about 400,000 Britons stranded overseas.

The flight from Algeria will be taking off with seats costing just £186, according to the Foreign Office. Flights out of the country were suspended on 19 March with no options for British travellers or charity workers who wanted to leave.

In South Africa the British high commissioner, Nigel Casey, went on national TV to say his team was working “flat out” to organise charter flights with permission in principle to fly already granted by the country’s government.

So far 2,500 people have registered to leave but Casey said the number seeking repatriation was more likely to be between 5,000 and 7,500.
He also revealed that 179 elderly Britons on the luxury liner Queen Mary 2 were on their way back to the UK after the ship’s captain got permission to refuel in Durban last night.
Nicola Pollitt, the British ambassador in Nepal confirmed that there would be charter flights out of the country and that the “price will be capped”.

She also revealed on social media that British Gurkhas had been helping to extract tourists from remote locations including six trekkers in the Himalayan Langtang region and seven from the mountainous district of Manang.

Charter flights have already left from Tunisia and Ghana. Arrangements have also been put in place for flights back from Kenya and Zimbabwe. Ethiopian Airlines have been persuaded to restart flights from Harare after a conversation between Raab and Ethiopia’s prime minister.

In India, the acting high commissioner is coming under severe pressure from worried Britons to reveal details of flights. Jan Thompson said there were “many thousand of British nationals” stranded and that the date and location of flights would be announced as soon as they were confirmed.

The British ambassador in Thailand warned thousands stranded not to expect charter flights as commercial airlines were still allowed to fly. This is of no comfort to people who are facing multiple cancellations, exorbitant pricing and and no instant refunds.

One mother who contacted the Guardian said she was at her wits’ end over efforts to get her young son home. “We bought a ticket on Etihad Airways which was cancelled and cost £1,000. We bought another ticket for over £1,200 with Qatar Airways on Friday 30 after getting nowhere with our MP or the Foreign Office,” she said.

Up to 10,000 British nationals stranded in New Zealand, which is just days into a four week lockdown, have been warned by the high commissioner Laura Clarke, that it may not be on the target list at all.

It hasn’t been decided yet if the programme will include New Zealand and I don’t want to over-promise. There are Britons stuck all over the world, some of them in much more dangerous situations, in countries where the health systems aren’t functioning at all,” she said.
She confirmed that 10,000 had registered their desire to leave the country and said “if there are chartered flights, it won’t happen straight away and it won’t be a silver bullet”.
One elderly UK national is among four people to have died on the coronavirus-stricken cruise ship the Zaandam,where nine people have tested positive for Covid-19 and dozens are ill with flu-like symptoms.

Comment The term British national has a very wide definition in the Globalised world. Gurkhas have been deported before just for retiring from the army. As for the rest, anyone who can afford to be caught out in such far away exotic places is either very rich, with dual nationality or both.

These jet setters of the global world are a huge part of this ongoing problem and the virus spread – though the state will never admit to the cause being part of the global regime change and trade war aimed at China and Russia. As for high death rate New York and London, they are Global/Sanctuary cities.

As I write, the British Prime Minister has vowed to increase restrictions- ramp up he said. If isolation is the answer, then these people should be isolated abroad- after all they might have the illness without showing. Isn’t it so bonding knowing that the still fit looking Prime Minister and Prince of Wales has the illness. Best of both worlds and higly convenient for our rulers.

It brings us all so much closer together -even when we are 2 metres apart and rising- in that Blitz spirit. My local Co-op shop has alread been robbed twice for food. The real blitz is yet to come. only those of us who have seriously researched the famous ‘Blitz’ know that it was a period of blind panic, death by fire, explosions and people robbing each other. Germany may have had better weapons, but the British beat Goebels at propganda.

The number of deaths from air raids 1939-40 cross the U.K was 55,000, But don’t worry,, soon our talented experts will be counting road crashes as due to people falling ill at the wheel with corona virus. The British ruling elite and global con men have a vested interest in protecting their Domesday prediction / reputation and forward looking asset stripping project. They can’t back down, their privileged hypocritical lifesyles must be protected. Robert Cook

Still Clutching at Straws with a virus where the mask is just another cover up from the ruling elite. April 22nd 2020

After months of telling the public not to use face masks, the United States is looking into revising its recommendations, following the example set by some Asian countries that have been more successful in fighting the coronavirus.

The reason? Many people without symptoms are contagious without knowing it — and the thin barrier provided by a simple surgical mask, or even a homemade substitute, could help reduce the spread.

“One of the (pieces of) information that we have pretty much confirmed now is that a significant number of individuals that are infected actually remain asymptomatic,” Robert Redfield, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) told NPR on Tuesday. “That may be as many as 25 percent,” he added, citing Chinese data.

The new coronavirus is far more contagious than the flu — by a factor of three or four, estimated Redfield. It’s spread via respiratory droplets when people cough or sneeze, but also when they unknowingly touch surfaces at home or outside. 

Some spread may even occur when infected people use and then flush the toilet, creating a plume of viral-laden air in the bathroom.

• Scarves and bandanas –
  At the moment, the advice from the CDC is only that sick people, and those who care for them at home, should wear the masks to prevent spreading the disease to others.
  But that could be shifting very soon.
  The idea for widespread use of masks is backed by President Donald Trump, who encouraged people to fashion their own makeshift barriers if they can’t get ahold of the medical apparel. “You can use a scarf. A lot of people have scarves and a scarf would be very good,” he said at his daily White House briefing on Tuesday.
  “The idea of getting a much more broad community-wide use of masks outside of the health care setting is under very active discussion at the task force,” Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a member of the coronavirus taskforce told CNN on Tuesday.
  “The thing that has inhibited that a bit is to make sure we don’t take away the supply of masks from the health care workers who need them. But once we get in a situation where we have enough masks, I believe there will be some very serious consideration about more broadening this recommendation of using masks.”
• Asian example – 
  In China, Singapore, Hong Kong and Japan, masks, gloves and even in some cases protective boots are commonplace — and the picture is evolving in Europe too.
  
• In the Czech Republic and Slovenia, they are now compulsory. 
  Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babis on Sunday urged Trump to follow suit, tweeting at him: “Wearing a simple cloth mask decreases the spread of the virus by 80%! Czech Republic has made it OBLIGATORY for its citizens to wear a mask in the public.”
  In France, many are fashioning cloth masks at home and the government discourse is also shifting. 
  
• One area of concern is making sure that people who wear masks don’t become complacent and that they still adhere to the principles of social distancing and frequent handwashing — the Asian examples indicate that both are possible.
  New York, the hardest-hit city in the United States, is a good example: The few pedestrians out and about exercising or on essential business are often masked while maintaining a six-foot (two-meter) distance from others.
  
• But the practice hasn’t yet made it through to the White House’s daily briefing, where none of the officials cover their faces.
  Gabe Kelen, director of the department of emergency medicine at the Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, said he feared a change in the advice may mean that the public tries to get hold of real masks, even if they are told to use DIY ones, and that could exacerbate shortages for health care workers. 
  
• But he added “as the infection becomes more ubiquitous in society, (they) might have some value to keep others from getting it.” 
  Brandon Brown, an epidemiologist at the University of California Riverside, agreed. 
  “Once more effective masks are made available, I believe we will all be using them for our own protection when emerging from our shelter in place order to obtain food and other essentials to use back home,” he told AFP.
  
• “For now, we can use a DIY face cover in public if nothing else than to prevent us from touching our face after touching surfaces.”

World War Three Under Cover April 1st 2020

The British authorities now have what they want, a 12 year old British Muslim boy has been judged as ‘probaly’ dying from Corona Virus. There will be no autopsy, with more ‘probablies ‘ being added to the death toll, in order to contine draconian social distancing and other controls until the end of the year. In the meantime this is being used to insist Britain must stay in Europe, which it will not leave any time soon, if ever. I am not saying this s a Brexiteer, never believing that Brexit would make this country better, more just and fairer. You only have to look at what is going on under an obviously self centred propagandist totalitarian elite regime. Comment Robert Cook

The United States is the worst hit country, making up over 50 % of cases, 89% are elderly and most of the other if not all are not young, and have pre existing health problems. Diabetes is very common among lower class Amercians. they have lifestyles very different and much less funny than what we see in films or on TV.

Around 240,000 have died from this virus, out of 2.8 million dying of old age, flu and related conditions over the last 12 months. They had pre existing medical conditions.

The U.S which seems to have unlinited resources for espionage and war, is glad to receive aid from China, Russia and anyone else to back up their failing health system in what is a larger version of its parent equalling failing nation, the U.K . Like the U.S, Britain is also struggling with so many deaths coming at once.

Comment Robert Cook

Don’t panic, it will get worse. April ist 2020

Donald Trump has said the UK was facing “catastrophic” results before it changed strategy in the fight against coronavirus – as one of his experts revealed she remains “worried” about Britain’s lack of ventilators.
In a briefing at the White House, the US president claimed the British government had “put themselves in a little bit of a problem” over its original plan to tackle COVID-19.

The UK initially did not follow other European countries in closing schools and banning mass gatherings but ramped up measures following predictions that the country could otherwise have seen 250,000 deaths.

Before the shift in strategy, the government’s chief scientific adviser, Sir Patrick Vallance, told Sky News that around 60% of the UK population would need to become infected with coronavirus in order for society to have “herd immunity” from future outbreaks.

Comment The Chief Medical Officer was right about herd immunity.. the Swedes are right to say there is no evidence that the pseudo science of ‘social distancing ‘ which blinds ignorant slavish British masses with pseudo science, has any effect on the problem short or long term.

An Oxford and Cambridge led research team have been looking at this, coming to the same conclusions that herd immunity is the only sustainable approach. Inevitably you have to did deep to find any sensible explnation of what is going on, especially the draconian and destructive U.S Europe response.

In this context one has to consider the serious possibility that the West- led by Britain and U.S – planted the virus in Wuhan. On the one hand they say they know little about it, on the other, it has two paheses of infection with the second one killing not just people who are already ill as at the moment.

It follows that the elite and their arrogant lackeys either know something they won’t tell us, or they are moronic liars benefitting from the so called crisis while others will die of economic bankruptc and social isolation.

A few days ago, Trump called for an end to the draconain measures which he had not supported outside New Your and California hotspots. Now he is backing Britain and Europe and the indefinite rolling and repeating plan to keep us all in lockdown.

This scenario has involved ‘leaders’ using the language of war, dragging up the myths and slogans of past glories. World War One and the second round ‘World War Two’ were based on lies and propoganda. World War One involved German speaking German Queen Victoria’s son, and two of her nephews, as heads of the German, British and Russian State. the whole business was so German, British Royalty were forced to change their name from Saxe Coburg Goethe to the more loveable name of Windsor. Even Mountbatten and his nephew Prince Phillip were German. Queen Elizabeth was related to Phillip before she married him just as Diane Spencer was alredy related to Princess Diana. The elite like come from a small gene pool.

The nineteenth century scramble for Africa conflicted Germany and Britain, bringing them into what was essentially France’s desire for ‘revanche’ ( revenge ) on Germany. Germany was blamed, bankrupted and humiliated, creating Nazism and another war for billionaire’s to profit from and to butcher the lower orders.

Young men were forced to die, poor women were breaved and left heart broken. Britain welcomed mass immigration from its dying Empire. Racism was born and an issue.

Then women were encouraged by taking seriously the likes of Germaine Greer to become prototype feminists. By the way, what the hell is a female euncuch, as her ground breaking feminist bible was entitled ? Eunuch means castrated male. It is a bad ande contradictory metaphor, but massively promoted. Feminism, like the Corona Crisis, does not need to follow logic because people are stupid en masse and it is a means to an end- the very reverse of women’s lib in fact. What Greer means by this metaphore, is women have lost the balls they never had, and need to grow new ones. This coming from the woman who said men can’t change sex because ‘they never had a smelly vagina’.

The myth of multi culture- shown up now for what it really is- was born with the lower orders fighting among and blaming themselves for Britain ‘s every day miseries. Britain and the incestuous U.S ( they are good at joint fu-ck ups ) became paranoid about the rise of Communist China -which they had been exploiting for years, for cheap goods and other services like dumping rubbish and nuclear waste. Then, after Glasnost, Russia failed to fall into regime change line.

Lincoln said ‘You can’t fool all of the people all of the time.’ So what, in fake democracies you use spin and counter spin to fool most of them some of the time, and most of the people if you are lucky. Our fake democracies don’t need most of the people to give them a landslide. In Britain 40% of thse who can be bothered to turn out to vote, gets a landslide for one of our consensus parties. Serious dissidents are descredited and destroyed.

So we come to the rolling British and U.S rolling wars for ‘democracy’ in the Middle East, helped by freedom loving Saudi Arabia- where the only freedom they love is their own, just like their western elite freinds. Religious wars are stirred up, Britain has used that divide and rule trick for years. As Churchil said, ‘Britain doesn’t have enemies, it has interests.’ His son Randolph remarked. ‘We built an empire on the cheap.’

The Middle Eastern wars, triggered by the dubious 9/11 attaack, blaming and hanging old friend Sadam Hussein to shut him up, have brought the leite to an impasse and stalemate with Russia. The latter has been sanctioned out of Europe by Britain and U.S, hence increasing Russia’s bonds with China. This is a serious nightmare. There is also the amazing technology war, with so many clandestime opportunities.

China and Russia have both moved into Africa for business and investment. This has caused a massive clash where the U.S lready has hundreds of bases and plans. It is the ‘new scramble for Africa’ where the average African woman has 14 children and some rather unpleasant black dicators who will, like Anglo America, do business with anyone- including selling out their own people as the black leaders sold young blacks to white slave traders long ago.

Technology, created by aspergic nerds, might advance, but human nature en masse does not. Humans are taught that God made us specially in ‘his’ own image, not the truth that we are animals. Those with the money use technology to kill and control. It is much more sophisticated nowadays.

The young are brainwashed, taught what to think, not how to think. I was brought up in an intelligent working class family who had seen and suffered the realities of war. They saw the propoganda for what it was. My mother taught me that Churchill was a windbag and a killer. Women of her generation were not so up their own vaginas as they are taught, like dogs, to be now. There is no we about this so called crisis in Britain, only sheep.

So here are, with all that Noel Coward crap like we are ‘The Happy Breed, Dunkirk and Blitz. The only reason Germany lost World War Two was because they ended up fighting the whole world and the ‘Allies’ got the atom bomb working first.

Versailles did not end World War One, Bretton Woods did not end round two. Wars have always been waged by powerful greedy selfish bullies prepared to kill and sacrifice anyone in their way, or to use them. Propganda and lies are their key . weapons.

Look at this so called health crisis, study the elite body langauge and rhetoric. It is short on facts and answers. British love a blustering leader. Boris Johnson models him self and has written a bombastic book about his hero Churchill. Both have strong U.S roots. British lower classes love a bombastic blusterer to ‘bring them together.’

As in the two ‘great wars’ they are goaded into the slaughter and will scream at any one of them seen or heard breaking ranks. Then, in comes the police who see themselves as a cut above, their bullying mentality and vanity fed on drivel about them being heroes, all fighting to save lives no matter how many die or are locked up in the process.

Britain Moves Goal Posts on ecording Corona Deaths Match 31st 2020 revised April 1st 2020

Desperate to increase panic and adjust on going lock down/ social control, the government is widening the definition of lockdown deaths retrospectively to anyone who might have died of Corona and increasing testing, desperate to find more cases. A lot of top heads and reputations are at risk here. The deadline has been set in stone, the panic enhanced. Keeping people apart and bankrupting many is good for them and their secret war.

Anyone, outside the conspiracy, with brain would believe there to be a hidden agenda on Britain’s Corona Virus, especially because it is expceted kill Brexit and helps stoke up anti Russian and anti China hostility..

The Deputy Chief Medical Officer and the governments virus ‘expert’ Neil Ferguson from Imperial College ( he has been discedited in the past, but is saying what the elite want to hear ), have declared that counting deaths from the virus is an ‘inexact science.’ Those terms seem rather contradictory and seem to mean, it has not scientific at al so farl.

But Ferguson reckons he can do a good estimate taking account of unspecified deaths in ‘the communities;’ which were probably from the virus.

Ferguson’s new method of counting has immediately pushed the number of official deaths up by over 20% which looks good to him and his cronies, because the death toll was looking rather low in relation to rhe scale of mass panic, draconian controls, job losses, business closures and disrupting the education system, to name just a few of the problems.

But the British love rules, as my old doctor told me, his wartime army officer dad told him that if the Germans invaded there would have been no shortgae of concentration camp guards,

Well, there have been a noticeable increase in security guards and the police are acting to type. On top of that, there seems no shortage of nice people phoning the authorities to report social distancing offenders. Wonderful country, with a wonderfully upper class out of touch civil service and politcal elite. And you thought you got your country back ! the British masses are easily misled, still responding to all the Blitz and Dunkirk Bull-hit.

Sweden says no to quarantine – is this the most reckless or the most proportionate Covid-19 response in the West? March 31st 2020

By Guy Birchall, British journalist covering current affairs, politics and free speech issues. Recently published in The Sun and Spiked Online. With most of Europe imposing extraordinary restrictions to slow the spread of coronavirus, Sweden has left its citizens surprisingly free. Are Swedes rolling the dice with their public health, or is everyone else overreacting?

As most of Europe clamps down in a bid to slow the spread of Covid-19, one country is bucking the trend. Sweden is taking a markedly more liberal approach to combatting the virus. Despite its closest neighbours, Denmark and Norway, shutting down all but essential services, Swedes remain free to socialise as the harsh Scandinavian winter comes to an end. Although universities and high schools have shut, pre-schools, kindergartens, bars, restaurants, ski resorts, sports clubs and hairdressers have all remained open. Read more Covid-19 compensation: Busybody police waste precious resources on meaningless tasks

The streets of Stockholm and Malmo are noticeably quieter than usual, but positively bustling compared to those of Copenhagen, Oslo, London, Paris and Rome. Standing in bars is banned but as long as punters can find a seat they’re free to enjoy a night out. Other steps taken include gatherings of more than 50 people being banned and the over 70s being urged to self-isolate.

With the exception of Belarus, which hasn’t even suspended its football league, Sweden’s restrictions amount to the most relaxed out there. This has prompted observers both in and outside the country to wonder if they are playing fast and loose with the nation’s health or taking the most proportionate response in the West. Prime minister Stefan Lofven has warned that times ahead would be tough but also put the onus on individual Swedes. He added: “We all, as individuals, have to take responsibility. We can’t legislate and ban everything.”

This tactic is at odds with the strategy in the UK which has been to tell citizens to stay at home and limit leaving the house to once a day. Sweden’s experts have taken a very different view to the UK’s, with their state epidemiologist, Anders Tengell, saying the Imperial College London modelling, predicting 250,000 deaths and informing Boris Johnson’s strategy, is “pessimistic”. The latest numbers in Sweden show nearly 3,500 cases and 105 deaths. Tengell told The Observer: “As long as the Swedish epidemic development stays at this level, I don’t see any big reason to take measures that you can only keep up for a very limited amount of time.”

Sweden’s move has allowed for businesses to stay open, reducing the impact on the country’s economy. The approach has been broadly well received by the public, who view it as a more sensible course of action than the draconian steps taken in other countries. It also places the country in a better position to ramp back up to full capacity after the pandemic subsides. Lofven’s government seems less inclined to be seen to just “do something” compared to many in the West. Swedes have not clamoured for the state to restrict their freedoms in the same way many in other countries appear to have done. Read more Mandatory self-isolation: With Moscow in partial lockdown, Russian PM urges rest of country to follow suit

Only time will tell what the best response to this year’s outbreak turns out to be, but for the moment Sweden’s more laissez-faire approach should be heartening to its population. The government entrusting its citizens to observe advice and adjust their behaviours accordingly without the threat of police intervention is something that should be applauded in a free society. It also maintains a higher level of trust going in the other direction, from the public to the government. On a practical level, not employing draconian measures immediately prevents hysteria from taking hold amongst the public and allows for a slower escalation of measures should they be needed.

Trust is an important factor in a democracy where a government rules by consent of the people. Public trust in Sweden is exceptionally high, with citizens having faith that their politicians are acting in the public interest. Their propensity to treat adults like adults is key to that trust remaining.

Without question, sacrifices will have to be made in the fight against Covid-19, but it is vital that public trust in the government is not one of the things lost. By taking a more measured response and basing their actions of advice rather than enforcement, Sweden’s government is taking a gamble but arguably a less risky one than Britain or Germany have. Sweden is allowing its economy to function at a much more normal level than the rest of Europe, which has effectively almost shut down.

If the pandemic turns out not to be as fatal as, for example, Britain’s experts initially feared, then the draconian measures enforced by other countries could result in the cure being worse than the disease. However, if it does turn out to be as deadly as predicted, but no more so in Sweden than in other countries, the government could still not be accused of having done nothing but would still be in a more economically stable condition. The only situation that would leave the Swedish government truly open to criticism would be if the mortality rate in Sweden outstrips similar countries, but thus far there seems little indication that that is likely to be the case.

Comment The British Government, and many other Europeans, must be hoping that the so called expert predictions that matters will get worse, do come true. This is because they have caused so much extra misery, insecurity and other health risks. Experts get paid a lot of money. People are so badly educated in Britain, they always believe the experts.

This so called crisis has also allowed Governments to test dictatorial powers. None do it better than Britain. To use London or Birmingham as indicators is absurd. Both are sanctuary cities with hidden populations of illegals and so called refugees. The NHS has never been able to cope with overwhelming migrant demand. Robert Cook

Nanny Knows Best March 29th 2020

Britain is one week into full coronavirus lockdown. Could there be 25 more to go? A senior government adviser has warned that civil liberties could be restricted until the autumn, as she said a “normal way of living” may not return for more than six months. Dr Jenny Harries, the Deputy Chief Medical Officer, said that even if the current lockdown shows positive results within weeks, it would be “quite dangerous” to lift the curbs too quickly. Boris Johnson will review the lockdown in two weeks’ time, but has never guaranteed it would end then. And Michael Gove, the Cabinet Office minister, said yesterday that the lockdown would last longer if people did not obey the rules on social distancing – warning the public to limit daily walks to a maximum of an hour ahead of a tightening up of rules. Read our ultimate lockdown Q&A on the new rules for living.

Official figures show that a total of 1,228 people have now died in the UK after catching coronavirus. Among them is an ear, nose and throat consultant from Derby – the first front-line hospital worker to die from Covid-19. But it has emerged that there is a lag in reporting the death toll, which means many more patients might have already died. Use our postcode tool to search for confirmed coronavirus cases by area.

Corona Virus Insanity Continues with main burden on poor who are no longer needed for the next phase of elite led globalisation. March 30th 2020

Official reports, as always, are meally mouthed. They ignore key questions, like why destroy the economy for a virus that is only ever a secondary cause of death affliciting mainly old people, like me if we are already sickly ? Why do they say there is a second phase following a person’s recovery if they do not know more about this virus than they are telling us.

As it is going more lives will be destroyed by the so called counter measures. It is hard to believe that China inflicted this virus on itself and the west have simultaneusly been exploiting China for cheap goods, whilst waging all manner of covert operations against it in reent years.

Western fake democracy crusades have stalemated in the Middle East, pushing Russia- itself a victim of British and U.S joint hostilities- into closer unity with China. Overpopulation is a world problem, so our elite won’t mind killing a few million in the name of saving them.

As for Boris, he might be an idiot. I never thougt my time at two universities, during the more elite and privileged years, made me anything special.

Upper class morons took Britain in to two world wars. These types still rule the waves and air waves, trotting out the cliches ‘We’re all in it together.’ As back then, when the elite slaughtered millions on both sides, some of us are more in it than others. Robert Cook.

Government set to cap university admissions amid Covid-19 chaos

Strict limits on the number of students that each university in England can recruit are set to be imposed by the government in an effort to avoid a free-for-all on admissions, with institutions plunged into financial turmoil as a result of the coronavirus pandemic

The lockdown of the UK to try to slow the spread of coronavirus could go on for six months and the country may not return to its normal way of life until the autumn, a key government doctor has said.
The deputy chief medical officer for England, Dr Jenny Harries, said at Downing Street’s daily press conference on Sunday that the effectiveness of the current restrictions would be reviewed at the end of the original three-week period.

If we are successful we will have squashed the top of that curve, which is brilliant, but we must not then suddenly revert to our normal way of living,” she said. “That would be quite dangerous. If we stop then all of our efforts will be wasted and we could potentially see a second peak.”

The public have been asked to stop all non-essential travel, work from home if at all possible and limit exercise to one walk outside a day.
“We need to keep that lid on and then gradually we will be able to hopefully adjust some of the social distancing measures and gradually get us all back to normal,” Harries said.
“So I think three weeks for review. Two or three months to see whether we’ve really squashed it, with about three to six months ideally, and lots of uncertainty in that, but then to see at which point we can actually get back to normal. It is plausible that is could go further than that.”

he daily press conference was led by the secretary of state for housing, communities and local government, Robert Jenrick, who said the restrictions would be reviewed at Easter.
Boris Johnson is still in isolation in No 11 Downing Street after testing positive for coronavirus.
The likelihood of long-term government restrictions to try to limit the outbreak comes as Prof Neil Ferguson of Imperial College London, one of the epidemiologists advising the government, told the Sunday Times the lockdown would need to last for months.
“We’re going to have to keep these measures in place, in my view, for a significant period of time, probably until the end of May, maybe even early June. May is optimistic,” he said.

As of Sunday, 127,737 people had been tested for coronavirus in the UK, of whom 19,522 had tested positive, with 1,228 deaths.
Jenrick also updated the public on the roll-out of food parcels for the most vulnerable groups who have been asked to shield themselves at home for 12 weeks.

Around 50,000 packages will be delivered by the end of the week to those who have no support. Medication will also be dropped off at people’s homes.
“If you don’t have family, friends or neighbours nearby the NHS will deliver your medicines through the community pharmacy network,” Jenrick said. By “letting us know that you need support then we will deliver food and supplies to your doorstep”.

Russian state media has blamed Britain for the global coronavirus pandemic.  March 29th 2020

Russian state media has blamed Britain for the global coronavirus pandemic. 

Kremlin-backed media has broadcast propaganda which states Covid-19, the new form of coronavirus, was created as a tool for the benefit of the UK.

As Britain continues to fight the pandemic rapidly gripping the world, outrageous slurs in Russian media include that: 

• The British ‘smeared something in Wuhan’ in the same way that they ‘smear[ed] nerve agent on Skripal’s door handle’; 

• The pandemic was intentionally timed with Britain’s exit from the EU to enhance its global status;
• Porton Down, the Salisbury laboratory at the centre of the Skripal Novichok scandal, ‘patented a vaccine’ for Covid-19; 
• ‘There is a special operation ongoing’ related to the virus whose ‘players are the British-American Alliance’; 
• Covid-19 was accidentally created as a bioweapon in 2015 at the Pirbright Institute in Woking;
• Coronavirus is an attempt to gain access to Chinese markets, because ‘Churchill…said England doesn’t have friends or enemies… only business interests’.

Last night Oliver Dowden, the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, commented on the Mail’s findings and said: ‘We take disinformation extremely seriously and have brought together cross-government capabilities to give the most comprehensive picture possible.

‘People must have access to the correct information and we are working with tech firms to […] make sure the most reliable sources are promoted online.’

Britain was first targeted with Russian coronavirus propaganda at the end of January, two days before the first official case was confirmed in this country.

The five pieces of disinformation analysed by the Mail were collated by EUvsDisinfo, a project of the European External Action Service (EEAS), which is funded by the European Union.

Three were broadcast by Sputnik, a Kremlin-funded news platform created by a Presidential decree with the aim to ‘report on the state policy of Russia abroad’. One was broadcast on Channel 1, Russia’s main, state-aligned TV channel, and another was published in the nationalist leaning, pro-Kremlin Svobodnaia Pressa news site.

It comes after ministers announced this week that they had set up a ‘counter-disinformation unit’ amid fears that Russia is spreading fake news about coronavirus to create panic.

Last week a government source said the unit had already met to discuss the impact of disinformation linked to the virus.

One British official said creating fears to ‘spread uncertainty’ and undermine the West would be straight out of the ‘Russian toolbox’.

US officials have previously claimed that thousands of Russian-linked social media accounts have launched a coordinated effort to spread alarm about Covid-19.

Last month on Russia’s Channel 1 – the status equivalent of BBC One – a special roundtable discussion on Covid-19 was broadcast on ‘The Big Game’, a political talk-show. 

The programme featured Igor Nikulin, billed as a microbiologist and former ‘member of the UN Commission on Biological and Chemical Weapons’.

EUvsDisinfo disputes his links to the UN. Mr Nikulin told the host that he was ‘certain’ coronavirus was a ‘man-made disease’ and said: ‘the Americans and the British have already announced that they already have a vaccine. ‘By the British I mean Porton Down, a well-known facility that has for a long time been working with chemical and biological weapons.’ 

Questioned by other panellists, Mr Nikulin said: ‘That’s incidentally the same facility that I suspect was behind smearing the nerve agent on Skripal’s door handle. ‘Maybe they smeared something in Wuhan, Hubei, too, such as an escalator hand rail on the subway – something thousands of people touch daily.’

Russian double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia were poisoned in Salisbury, Wiltshire, in 2018.

The UK accused Russia of orchestrating the assassination, and Porton Down – the government’s biochemical laboratory in the same town – identified the poison as the military-grade Novichok. The Kremlin denied the accusations, and State TV channel Russia-1 accused Britain of poisoning Mr Skripal in a bid to sabotage its World Cup.

Earlier this year, the Sputnik Belarus website broadcast videos online featuring Dr Dmitry Belyakov, a social sciences doctor who claims to have worked at the Beijing Academy of Public Sciences.

On 28th January – three days before Britain formally left the EU – Dr Belyakov said in a video that ‘the artificial nature of the virus, it all adds up to a single puzzle. 

‘A puzzle of the second stage of the negotiation with the USA, a puzzle of the idea that China must be limited, and a puzzle of the fact that there are a couple of days left until Britain leaves the European Union and becomes another global player…

‘There starts the new bloom of the British Empire and all this plays in their favour.

‘Britain inflates in terms of information all these moments and becomes a separate hub [to] the European Union through which can go the goods.’

On 4th February, Dr Belyakov said in a video: ‘The whole hysteria with coronavirus is an information and psychological operation based in the artificial ground’. Referring to the West, he said: ‘Regardless of whom you hug or kiss in public areas, if the people in charge of these activities on the other side decide that the virus should appear in Belarus, it will appear.

‘I believe that… you can agree or disagree… that there is a special operation ongoing. The players are the British-American Alliance, as I call them. ‘Moreover Britain is now a free country, its hands are untied now. From the material losses that will now be in the EU. ‘There are the links of one chain. Do not look at such a serious processes separately. You see, even the persons who head Britain now, Boris Johnson … Now there is going on economic collapse, leaving the Union, disconnection.’

Days later Sputnik Belarus broadcast a studio discussion between Alexey Avdonin, an ‘expert at the Institute for Strategic Studies’ in Belarus, and Anastasia Miksyuk, an ‘expert in international relations’. Mr Avdonin likened the coronavirus crisis to the opium wars of the 19th Century, and said that ‘at that time China…tried not to provide the British with the access to Chinese ports’, but that the British gained access to the ports by offering to assist with opium addiction.

The host replied that ‘they have a massive historical experience in that’, and Miss Miksyuk replied: ‘Yes, they love it. ‘I think it was Churchill who said ‘England doesn’t have friends or enemies. England only has business interests’.’

While broadcast in Russian, not Belarusian, Sputnik Belarus would be mainly consumed by viewers outside of Russia itself, and via the internet.

Edward Lucas, a security expert in Russian disinformation, said: ‘There’s a difference between what the Russians are saying about coronavirus in the English language version of Sputnik and the other languages versions. [Therefore], to the West, Putin looks respectable.

‘Porton Down is always in their sights;

Porton Down is an evil secret, and they want to make the Russians think that the West is run by very evil people….The idea is to scare their own people, discredit the West in the eyes of the Russians’.

Earlier this year, the ultra-nationalist Svobodnaya Pressa news website published an article titled: ‘Coronavirus – Patent Found That Proves British Trace in 2019-nCoV: The British had a hand in a new dangerous pneumonia’. 

The article has been viewed almost 40,000 times. The author of the article, Alexander Sitnikov, discusses a coronavirus patent given to the Pirbright Institute in 2015. The Pirbright Institute, formerly known as the Institute for Animal Health, in Woking, studied the patent with the aim of developing a medicine for treating diseases in poultry. 

Mr Sitnikov cited online conspiracy theories which say that Covid-19 is a bioweapon which was accidentally created in the UK. ‘Those ‘advocates of conspiracy theory’ who write on forums that ‘2019-nCoV is a biological weapon developed by the British, even if they pursued scientific goals’ are not so sinful against the truth’, he wrote.

‘Leak of viruses is possible only in the case of a deliberate operation of special services, which would be able to obtain access codes. One researcher or a group of scientists will not be able to do this by accident or on purpose , even if they want to.

‘Why, then,[do] the Anglo-Saxons point a finger at the Chinese? The situation, if desired, can be characterized by the proverb: ‘The cap is on the thief.’

The Kremlin issues weekly guidance to its state media for instructions on what themes to cover, and who or what should be given positive or negative coverage. These are weekly verbal meetings between media executives and Kremlin officials. But experts cautioned against attributing everything in Russian media as a direct message from the Kremlin. ‘When Russian state interests are not directly at stake, there is always much less evidence of a coordinated script, and much more leeway given to media outlets and presenters’, said Stephen Hutchings, Professor of Russian Studies at the University of Manchester.

‘With a story such as the Coronavirus in which Russian interests […] coincide with those of other countries, there is little sign of a single, coherent narrative.’ Dmitrii Simes, one of the moderators of ‘The Big Game’ on which the Porton Down claims were made, repeated several times during the programme that he did not believe the conspiracy theories surrounding Coronavirus.

EUvsDisinfo declined to provide a spokesperson to comment on its work. But a European Commission Spokesperson said: ‘The European Union has been actively tackling disinformation since 2015… ‘In order to challenge Russia’s ongoing disinformation campaigns, the East StratCom Task Force in the European External Action Service (EEAS) was set up.

‘The Task Force East [has] detected and exposed altogether about 7,800 examples of disinformation from pro-Kremlin media sources, such as Sputnik and RT.’

A spokesman for the Russian Embassy in the UK said: ‘The Russian Government has nothing to do with these views, which form part of a public debate protected by rules of freedom of expression.’

Comment Britain is a strange many faced place/monster. I will not glorify it by calling it a nation. However, recent ‘national emergency’ legislation makes a mockery of the so called multi culture and diversity thing. It is quite clear that there is an iron fist inside that aristocratic velvet glove. So in my view, anything is possible.

There are too many questions which will never be answered, the time is perfect to shift debt/responsibility onto the little person, then do all the ‘we’re all in it together’ Blitz bullshit.

Obviously many brain dead old foggies of my self important pensioner generation will run with that. The rest will have been taught by my generation of brainwashing school teachers – I never fitted in with those arseholes.

Coronavirus As A Smokescreen For Major Reboots & Mini-Collapses In The 3D/4D Matrix

Published on March 14, 2020 by Jelelle Awen

By Jelelle Awen

When feeling into this current supposed ‘pandemic’ of the Covid-19 strain of coronavirus, there has often to me felt like ‘there is no there there.’ Meaning, I couldn’t sense the substance of it, the heat of it. It felt like air or, rather, a billow of smoke rather than the actual fire. The more tuned in you are to your own authentic reality and your emotional body, the more you can feel when something is ‘real’ versus a fear projection triggered by outside sources.

As I checked in with my guides and some alternative/disclosure/awakened news sources, I could feel the smoke of body death fear start to clear and the trigger in humanity’s collective experience of plagues in other timelines began to dissipate. It is at a peak triggered fear in the moment and so it can be challenging, especially for empaths, to move through this layer in the collective emotional body (and in their own souls) to feel their truths, their hearts, and their purpose to serve love.

Even with the strength of the collective fear energies that are needing to be cleared right now, many awakened souls seem to be remaining in their centers around the truth of love and the bigger picture of Ascension that is going on. This is where the ‘inner work’ foundations really start to become embodied in response to what is needed on the outside.

What I’ve been offered about this virus and what feels true to me is that it is actually a smokescreen. Its purpose is to create diversion so that the next phase and stages of collapse of the 3D Matrix can be implemented without creating even MORE fear and mass panic in the 3D collective. China has an important role in the next phases of rebirth, especially to lead the emerging out of the old money systems (debt based to a new world currency to eventually service-based exchange).

Supposedly there was an attack on China in the Wuhan region from the Cabal, Illuminati that was then needing to be covered up (because of how difficult that would be for 3D mainstream to accept) for which the virus provided the means of doing that and also reason to shut down the entire country to ‘reboot’ the system as it was cleaned up.

Italy was also needing this mass smokescreen as many elite and powerful members of the Vatican are being arrested/detained following the issuing of hundreds and thousands of sealed indictments that have been recorded now for many months. Italy has been a ‘hotbed’ of much of the 3D Matrix beginnings, going ‘back’ to the Roman Empire. The country itself shutting down is a way to cloak these happenings from people while this offers a brand new rebirth for it to emerge out of the ashes. Some of others who are deeply involved in the Cabal (including some celebrities, business leaders, etc.) are apparently also being publicly ‘self quarantined’, which is actually being used to cover their detainment for now.

Other countries now following and falling like dominoes to restrict travel at their borders, declare national emergencies, encourage people to stay at home and ‘self quarantine’ are all aspects of the overall reboot process. When I feel into this, I can feel the actual love for all of us that is going on here even as it can bring up feelings of being controlled, limited, and helpless for parts of us.

It is really up to each of us in terms of what feels right related to going out and even travel at this time as the energies may continue to peak into a necessary fear place in order to purge it (exactly what a virus does.) Being out in public may be uncomfortable for those of us who are very sensitive to energy and remaining in safe places/shelters, doing inner work to feel and clear fear, sending love to the collective as ambassadors, etc. may be how we can best serve as this wave moves through. I am getting the sense that much of this will be cleared in the next few weeks.

This is the time we’ve been waiting and preparing for our entire lives. This is WHY we are here at this time of humanity’s great transition. For those of us who have spent YEARS awakening to these realities, it is time for us to truly step forward to lead and serve love.

The phase of needing much support from and with other resonant souls feels like it is passing now even as it remains an always available life line. It is time to trust your own soul’s bigness and step into the light to guide others in whatever ways you are called to do that.

Many unawakened souls are still in a deep fog about this, believing whatever is told to them, disconnected from the Divine (just temporarily), and in a genuine panic and fear state. Even those who have been awakening can get caught up in the peak fear to whatever degree they are still plugged into the Matrix at the soul, unconscious levels.

Fear is a portal offering a way to self and soul discovery and is not ‘bad’ in that way. It has been a necessary result of this separation experiment from the Divine in order to return back to source again. If you are understandably feeling fear over these changes and the unknown that they bring, becoming compassionately curious about it and going within to feel what parts of you are feeling and what timelines also may be triggered and bleeding through can be very helpful. I wrote more about this here: https://soulfullheartblog.com/2020/03/02/coronavirus-as-a-portal/

Immunity arises from serving love, from moving into your soul’s purpose here, from healing fear from this-life and soul levels too. As you share from this immune place, you are actually offering a vaccine to others who are ready to receive it. This is then the ‘spread’ of a love virus, rather than a fear-based one.

Here is a recent guided meditation and Q & A I did about the coronavirus and the 3D Matrix switch over: https://youtu.be/XxhCJcAAaEk

NHS Can’t cope. Immigrant demand continues to rise and most increased spending goes on pay rises. March 29th 2020

Spending on the NHS has increased – so why are our hospitals in trouble?

New performance figures showed the NHS in England had once again missed its target for treating or discharging A&amp;E patients within four hours, with performance dropping to its lowest level for a decade.

Just 91.8% of patients were seen within four hours between January and March, when the target is 95%.

And a new report has warned that health trusts are spending more than they can afford, and the NHS is projected to overspend by £626m by the end of 2014/15.

Even with extra health funding, the NHS has struggled to cope with growing demand for its services.

And our hospitals have become less efficient – meaning it costs them more to deliver the same services – because of an increasing reliance on expensive temporary staff.

This is partly a result of a determination not to repeat the mistakes made at Stafford Hospital, the hospital run by Mid Staffordshire NHS Foundation Trust, where a public inquiry found that “an insidious negative culture involving a tolerance of poor standards” had contributed to “appalling suffering of many patients”.

The fact is that health funding has increased since the last election in 2010.

An analysis by think tank The King’s Fund concludes that over the five years of the Coalition government, English NHS funding will have increased by around 0.8 per cent per year on average – an additional £890 million a year in real terms.

Critics of the Government would point out that the Conservatives promised to increase funding in real terms every year, a pledge also adopted by the Tory-Lib Dem Coalition, but spending actually fell by 0.7 per cent in 2010-11.

However, it rose in other years, and this more than made up for the 2010-11 cut. Overall, NHS spending is up.

So what’s the problem?

For one thing, the NHS requires funding increases simply to keep up with increased demand. More people need treatment as the population increases and as we live longer, which means there are more older people in our communities.

Improving medical technology also means that better treatment is possible – and people expect to receive it. But this costs money.

The Kings Fund estimates that an extra three to four per cent funding each year is needed just to meet higher costs of new medical technologies and increases in demand for health care.

A new report by charity The Health Foundation had different figures but also highlighted a gap between rising costs and the extra funding the NHS has enjoyed.

It said: “The deterioration in NHS provider finances is the result of their operating costs (staff costs, drugs costs, premises expenses, etc) rising more rapidly than the income they receive from the commissioners of care – clinical commissioning groups and NHS England.

“In 2013/14, NHS providers’ operating costs rose by 1.9% (£1.4bn) while their income only increased by 1.0% (£0.7bn).”

This helps to explain why the NHS faces financial problems despite enjoying an increase in funding.

The Health Foundation warns that the NHS is projected to overspend by £626m by the end of 2014/15.

It said: “The financial performance of NHS providers in England has deteriorated sharply since 2013, from a net surplus of £582m in 2012/13 to a net deficit of £789m at the end of Q3 of 2014/15.”

And it highlighted the problem of spending on temporary staff, as hospitals apparently race to increase staff numbers as a result of the Stafford Hospital scandal, which has focused attention on care standards.

The charity said: “Spending on temporary staff grew by £1bn (27.8%) in 2013/14 and continues to rise.”

Spending on temporary staff makes up 7% of all staff spending in the North East, the charity’s report found.

But the trouble is that temporary staff cost more than regular doctors and nurses. To put it another way, employing temporary staff means hospitals get less value for their money.

Anita Charlesworth, chief economist at the Health Foundation, warned in a blog post: “The big factor pushing up costs is rising spending on staff, and most specifically temporary staff.”

There’s another problem too.

Funding for adult social care, often provided outside of hospital to the elderly, people with a disability and people with a long-term illness, has been cut significantly.

This is the responsibility of local government rather than the NHS.

A Kings Fund report published in October warned funding has been cut by 12 per cent since 2010 – even taking into account extra cash for social care provided by the government.

Councils have dealt with having less money to spend by making social care available to fewer people, but this puts extra pressure on hospitals, who often end up treating patients who might otherwise have been cared for at home.

In the course of this election, the parties are competing over who will spend the most on the NHS.

In October last year, Simon Stevens, the head of NHS England, published a report warning the NHS actually needed an extra £8 billion a year, in real terms, by 2020.

But experts such as The Health Foundation say this is the bare minimum required, because it assumes it will also be possible to make efficiency savings of £22 billion (to tackle a total predicted funding shortfall of £30 billion).

Liberal Democrats and the Conservatives both claim they will be able to find this £8 billion.

It remains to be seen how exactly this will be paid for.

Labour actually makes a less ambitious offer, saying it will find an extra £2.5 billion to by clamping down on tax avoidance schemes; raising tax on high-value properties worth more than £2 million and introducing fees on tobacco companies.

Andy Burnham, Labour’s shadow health secretary, argues that Labour is “the only party that has put a specific measure on the table” while the others have made “a vague commitment to it”.

While all the parties are competing to prove who loves the NHS most, there’s no sign that any of them are willing to talk openly about just how they will raise the money needed to fund it in the future.

Private school parents demand fee refunds over fears institutions could go bankrupt March 29th 2020

By Camilla Turner, Education Editor and Russell Lynch, Economics Editor 28 March 2020 • 6:08pm Premium

Private school parents are demanding fee refunds, amid rising concern that some institutions could go bankrupt in the next few months.

Schools like Eton College, which charges £42,500-a-year and Uppingham School, which costs £38,720, will survive the current crisis due to long waiting lists.

Eton and Uppingham have both chosen to give parents a partial refund for this year’s fees.

Meanwhile, many other leading private schools have so far resisted pressure from parents to reduce or refund fees for this academic year.

Schools were told to shut their doors last Friday and send pupils home, with many now offering online classes and digital learning resources so pupils can keep up with their work from home….

Boris Johnson warns coronavirus crisis will get worse before it gets better

PM and NHS chiefs urge public to guard against complacency as UK’s virus death toll passes 1,000 By Edward Malnick, Sunday Political Editor 28 March 2020 • 10:00pm Premium

Boris Johnson has warned that “things will get worse before they get better”, as the NHS urged against “complacency” over the national effort to reduce the spread of coronavirus.

In a letter being sent to every UK household, the Prime Minister states that the more “we all follow the rules”, the fewer lives that will be lost over the coming weeks and “the sooner life can return to normal”.

His intervention, after becoming the first world leader to test positive for the disease, came as the death toll of those with Covid-19 rose above 1,000, with 260 additional fatalities taking the total to 1,019. There were fears last night that Britain was following the course of Italy and Spain, with more deaths at this stage of the outbreak than any country other than Spain.

Comment, of course he is the first world leader to get the virus because London is the great diversity place to be, even microbes love it. Also, of course the worst is yet to come because this is a stick to beat down the masses. ‘C’mon C’mon’ you pop pickin’ Brits, don’t let go of this classic. Robert Cook

Exclusive: Ministers were warned that the NHS could not cope with a pandemic three years ago but ‘terrifying’ results were kept secret

Ministers were informed three years ago that Britain would be quickly overwhelmed by a severe outbreak By Bill Gardner and Paul Nuki, Global Health Security Editor 28 March 2020 • 9:00pm Premium

The NHS failed a major cross-government test of its ability to handle a severe pandemic but the “terrifying” results were kept secret from the public, the Sunday Telegraph can reveal.

Ministers were informed three years ago that Britain would be quickly overwhelmed by a severe outbreak amid a shortage of critical care beds, morgue capacity and personal protective equipment (PPE), an investigation has discovered.

Codenamed Exercise Cygnus, the three-day dry run for a pandemic carried out in October 2016 tested how NHS hospitals and other services would cope in the event of a major flu outbreak with a similar mortality rate to Covid-19.

Dunkirk was a cock up and so is Corona. March 29th 2020

When this is all over, the NHS England board should resign in their entirety.” So wrote one National Health Service (NHS) health worker last weekend. The scale of anger and frustration is unprecedented, and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is the cause. The UK Government’s Contain–Delay–Mitigate–Research strategy failed. It failed, in part, because ministers didn’t follow WHO’s advice to “test, test, test” every suspected case. They didn’t isolate and quarantine. They didn’t contact trace. These basic principles of public health and infectious disease control were ignored, for reasons that remain opaque.

The UK now has a new plan—Suppress–Shield–Treat–Palliate. But this plan, agreed far too late in the course of the outbreak, has left the NHS wholly unprepared for the surge of severely and critically ill patients that will soon come. I asked NHS workers to contact me with their experiences. Their messages have been as distressing as they have been horrifying. “It’s terrifying for staff at the moment. Still no access to personal protective equipment [PPE] or testing.” “Rigid command structures make decision making impossible.” “There’s been no guidelines, it’s chaos.” “I don’t feel safe. I don’t feel protected.” “We are literally making it up as we go along.” “It feels as if we are actively harming patients.” “We need protection and prevention.” “Total carnage.” “NHS Trusts continue to fail miserably.” “Humanitarian crisis.” “Forget lockdown—we are going into meltdown.” “When I was country director in many conflict zones, we had better preparedness.” “The hospitals in London are overwhelmed.” “The public and media are not aware that today we no longer live in a city with a properly functioning western health-care system.” “How will we protect our patients and staff…I am speechless. It is utterly unconscionable. How can we do this? It is criminal…NHS England was not prepared…We feel completely helpless.”

England’s Deputy Chief Medical Officer, Jenny Harries, said on March 20, 2020: “The country has a perfectly adequate supply of PPE.” She claimed that supply pressures had now been “completely resolved”. I am sure Dr Harries believed what she said. But she was wrong and she should apologise to the thousands of health workers who still have no access to WHO-standard PPE. I receive examples daily of doctors having to assess patients with respiratory symptoms but who do so without the necessary PPE to complete their jobs safely. Health workers are challenged if they ask for face masks. Even where there is PPE, there may be no training. WHO standards are not being met. Proper testing of masks is being omitted. Stickers with new expiry dates are being put on PPE that expired in 2016. Doctors have been forced to go to hardware stores to buy their own face masks. Patients with suspected COVID-19 are mixing with non-COVID-19 patients. The situation is so dire that staff are frequently breaking down in tears. As one physician wrote, “The utter failure of sound clinical leadership will lead to an absolute explosion of nosocomial COVID-19 infection.” Front-line staff are already contracting and dying from the disease.

The NHS has been wholly unprepared for this pandemic. It’s impossible to understand why. Based on their modelling of the Wuhan outbreak of COVID-19, Joseph Wu and his colleagues wrote in The Lancet on Jan 31, 2020: “On the present trajectory, 2019-nCoV could be about to become a global epidemic…for health protection within China and internationally…preparedness plans should be readied for deployment at short notice, including securing supply chains of pharmaceuticals, personal protective equipment, hospital supplies, and the necessary human resources to deal with the consequences of a global outbreak of this magnitude.” This warning wasn’t made lightly. It should have been read by the Chief Medical Officer, the Chief Executive Officer of the NHS in England, and the Chief Scientific Adviser. They had a duty to immediately put the NHS and British public on high alert. February should have been used to expand coronavirus testing capacity, ensure the distribution of WHO-approved PPE, and establish training programmes and guidelines to protect NHS staff. They didn’t take any of those actions. The result has been chaos and panic across the NHS. Patients will die unnecessarily. NHS staff will die unnecessarily. It is, indeed, as one health worker wrote last week, “a national scandal”. The gravity of that scandal has yet to be understood.

Comment to follow, but beware, I am a person of interest to the British establishment so this site may soon be closed down as many of my sites have been befoere, by the police and public complaint.

Britain excels at cover ups, knowing its masses are docile unthinking ‘indoctrinhated’ cowards. I am no hero, have seen the inside of British cells to often. Britain is the ultimate police state. So Hitler had no idea what he was dealing with. Certainly not a state concerned about the Jews- it was and still is, all about THE MONEY.

Bono’s NGO: Old White Europeans Need To Be Replaced By Young ‘Energetic’ African Migrants Posted March 29th 2020

September 7, 2018 By CFT Team 24 Comments

Jamie Drummond, the co-founder of Bono’s NGO “ONE” told the Joint Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade and Defence that Europe needs “energetic” Africans to replace aging White Europeans:

Africa’s population is soon going to “double” and “whatever the circumstances” will mass migrate to Europe — “and that is a good thing,” according to the executive director of Bono’s “ONE” NGO.

“As Africa’s population doubles, a lot of them, whatever the circumstances, will be coming to Europe, as economic migrants or as refugees, they will be coming, many of them,” ONE co-founder Jamie Drummond told the Joint Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade and Defence last year. “And that is a good thing.”

“Because we will be senile,” Drummond said. “We will be senescent demographically. We’ll need their youthful energy to do stuff. So, that is just what the economic statistics tell you and the demographic data demands, you know, demography is destiny.”

He continued: “Europe and Africa are going to have a very close 21st century. The question is what kind of closeness will it be. And these kinds of investments through the aid program but also into people’s minds and ideas about who we are gives less succour to the xenophobes and populists who will otherwise do very well in the political climate over the next couple of decades if we don’t get this right, and I think we should all be quite worried quite frankly if we don’t make these investments, and we don’t also make the investments not just in aid but in other policies like transparency.”

Last week, Bono wrote a column underscoring his belief that diversity is Europe’s “greatest strength.”

If Africans were capable of replacing White Europeans, then Africa would look like Europe right now — and they would have no desire — or need — to migrate to Europe to have a better life.

Based on his rambling, incoherent statements, it’s Jamie Drummond who sounds senile and needs replacing.  Why doesn’t Drummond move to Sierra Leone and put Bono’s millions to work?

The jewish Karl Marx invented the lie that all humans could be reduced to inter-changable economic producers, and the jewish Franz Boas created a fake “science” called “sociology” to “prove” that all people, regardless of race, were equally capable of equal outcomes.

And yes, Bono has coincidentally admitted that he may have jewish ancestry himself.  Apples don’t fall from the proverbial tree, Bono-Marx, a messianic nation wrecker who uses his celebrity influence to deify Blacks and denigrate Whites.

What Bono is effectively advocating is the overthrow of the Irish people with Africans, which is treason against Ireland and genocide via race replacement of the historic Irish people.

If the Irish politicians had any backbone, they’d haul him into court and put him on trial for high crimes and misdemeanors.

5 Million Cases Worldwide, 650,000 Deaths Annually: The Seasonal Flu Virus is a “Serious Concern”, But the Wuhan Coronavirus Grabs the Headlines Posted March 29th 2020

Tom Clifford Reporting from Beijing

By Tom Clifford Global Research, February 22, 2020 Region: Asia Theme: Science and Medicine

First published on January 27, 2020. Figures quoted for the coranavirus pertain to late January

The common flu virus will infect millions across the globe. It can be easily spread and will especially strike the young and the elderly. But this is not what has been described as the Wuhan virus. The common flu is far deadlier. This is not to downplay the Wuhan coronavirus flu, or to give it its medical name, 2019-nCoV.

The common flu causes up to 5 million cases of severe illness worldwide and kills up to 650,000 people every year, according to the World Health Organization 

In the US:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that so far this season, there have been at least 15 million flu illnesses for the 2019-2020 season, 140,000 hospitalizations and 8,200 deaths in the U.S. The CDC reports there have been 54 reported flu-related pediatric deaths this season from Influenza B viruses. (The Hill)

China’s Coronavirus

Keeping track of Wuhan virus figures is difficult, not least because of the two-week incubation period. The coronavirus outbreak, which is concentrated in Wuhan, a major transport hub in central eastern China, has so far killed 56 and infected almost 2,000.

The initial symptoms of coronavirus are typically similar to those of a cold or flu, which means it is hard for people to know if they are infected, especially given that the outbreak has coincided with flu season. The mayor of Wuhan said on Sunday evening that he expected another 1,000 or so new cases. But the National Health Commission in Beijing said the number of people currently under medical observation for the virus is 30,453. This raises immediate questions about how and where they are being observed.Coronavirus Outbreak, a Global Public Health Emergency?

The response to the outbreak has been criticized with people complaining that announcing restrictions hours before they could be properly implemented allowed people to evade quarantine. The strict restrictions also risk causing resentment and distrust of authorities and the health messages they deliver.

A massive construction effort is being undertaken in Wuhan to build a 1,000-bed hospital for the virus patients.

In the past week [mid January], the number of confirmed infections has more than tripled and cases have been found in 13 provinces in China, as well as the municipalities Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing and Tianjin. The virus has also been confirmed in Hong Kong, Macau, Japan, Nepal, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, the United States, and Vietnam.

The virus seems to have a 3 percent mortality rate. However, this could be an overestimate since there may be a far larger pool of people who have been infected by the virus but who have not suffered severe enough symptoms to attend hospital and so have not been counted in the data.

Consequently, it is difficult to gauge just how contagious it is. A crucial difference is that unlike flu, there is no vaccine for the new coronavirus, which means it is more difficult for vulnerable members of the population – elderly people or those with existing respiratory or immune problems – to protect themselves.

The common flu does not grab the headlines. But attach a foreign name to a virus – such as Ebola, Zika and Wuhan – and then the headlines flow.

Apart from the obvious health concerns, there is a political dimension. Some countries, including the US, France, Australia and Japan have suggested that they want to evacuate their citizens from Wuhan and nearby areas. Just how this would take place is unclear.

Images of foreigners being airlifted or bussed out of Wuhan, while Chinese citizens remain, could see passions rise. At the very least, it will appear that there is special treatment for foreigners.

The streets of Beijing this morning are eerily quiet. Residents of the capital would normally be celebrating Chinese new year, the year of the rat, that started on Saturday, by attending temple fairs.

All such fairs have been cancelled. Apart from the family fun on offer at the fairs, they provide a setting where families can pay homage to deceased relatives. Fake money and food would be burnt to appease the spirits of the deceased and ensure good health prosperity for the year ahead.

There is no anger on the streets but a sense of confusion and apprehension. This coming week should see hundreds of millions of people return from the hometowns where the celebrated the new year to their cities of work.

A clearer picture will then emerge of the scale of the problems facing the authorities.

London Worst Affected March 28th 2020

A total of 72 people have died after contracting coronavirus, with 1,950 confirmed cases in London.

London is the worst-affected part of the country, and Sky News analysis shows 25 deaths have been in the capital. Ten deaths have also been recorded in the West Midlands.

On Tuesday, the number of fatalities in England increased by 14. NHS England said those who died were aged between 45 and 93 and all had underlying health conditions. Coronavirus UK tracker: How many cases are in your area – updated daily

As of 9am on Tuesday morning, the number of confirmed coronavirus cases in the UK had risen by 407 over a 24-hour period.

An estimated 621 cases are in London, representing 32% of cases nationwide.

The latest figures come after the government ramped up measures against the coronaviruspandemic following new predictions that the UK could otherwise have seen 250,000 deaths.

A new document published by the COVID-19 team at London’s Imperial College – which is advising the government on its coronavirus response – warns the current public health threat is the “most serious” from a respiratory virus since the Spanish Flu in 1918.

• The Coronavirus outbreak is having a significant impact on the global economy and markets.
• $6 trillion has been wiped off the value of a basket of nearly 7,000 stocks.
• From interest rates to oil prices, other areas of the global economy are also set the feel the effect.

Bond markets are certainly screaming warnings of recession, with U.S. and German 10-year yields falling 20 basis points on the week, the latter hitting record lows. Even gold, that ultimate safe-haven, fell as traders scrambled to meet margin calls triggered by the big stock market slide.

Below are a series of charts detailing the scale of the damage so far in financial markets.

1. Everybody hurt

Almost every single stock index in the world has spiraled lower but developed markets have borne the brunt. Winners of the week were high-grade government bonds that benefited from the safety bid and rate cut expectations.

2/ $6 trillion and counting…

A basket of nearly 7,000 stocks including developed, emerging and frontier markets have lost nearly $6 trillion or more than 10% of their value since Monday, according to Refinitiv DataStream.

3/ Bears prowl

A 10% drop is deemed to bring a stock or index into correction territory while a 20% slump is a bear market. By that yardstick, almost 80% of South Korean shares, and more than half of Japanese and emerging market shares and a third of the German index have entered bear territory.

4/ Oil slick

Fears of a demand collapse caused by recession are weighing heavily on commodities. Oil prices are headed for their steepest weekly fall in four years, and having fallen nearly a third from 2020-highs, are in a bear market too. Meanwhile, gold hovered near 7-year highs.

5/ Attention Powell, Lagarde & Co

Money markets are betting central banks will slash interest rates fast and frequently.

They now price a full 25 basis point U.S. Federal Reserve rate cut as soon as March, more than two rate reductions by June and more than three by September. The shift has halted the dollar’s rise and its safe haven status =USD.

The European Central Bank is forecast to reduce its minus 0.5% rate by 10 basis points as soon as June.

6/ Vol squall

Wall Street’s fear gauge, the VIX index’s closing high has spiked to levels last seen 2011 at the height of euro zone debt crisis while long dormant currency volatility is also stirring. That’s bad news for traders who have been shorting low-yield currencies such as euro and Japanese yen because any rise in volatility can quickly wipe out these trades. That can send panicked investors scrambling to buy back those currencies.

Capitulation? Perhaps.

The rapid worldwide spread of coronavirus and the economic implications of the outbreak have triggered the biggest weekly stock market rout since the 2008 financial crisis, wiping $6 trillion off global equities.

With travel plans and conferences canceled, airlines grounded and even the Tokyo Olympic Games in doubt, economists are busily slashing their forecasts for company earnings and economic growth.

Coronavirus deaths: Age, preexisting conditions and fever symptoms – what we know about the fatalities

The SARS-like disease has infected more than 20,400 people and killed 490 so far

Beijing: The first fatality from China’s new virus would come to represent a common set of traits among most of those who have died of the disease: he was over the age of 60 and in poor health.

Since China reported the emergence of a new coronavirus in December, the SARS-like disease has infected more than 20,400 people and killed 490.

So far, 80 per cent of victims were elderly individuals aged 60 or above and 75 per cent had pre-existing health conditions, such as diabetes, the National Health Commission said Tuesday.

The mortality rate also stood at 2.1 per cent, the commission noted – much lower than the nearly 10 percent who lost their lives to the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) in 2002-2003, when nearly 800 people died worldwide.

Over 97 per cent of victims from the new virus hailed from central Hubei province, where a market that sold wild animals in the capital city, Wuhan, is believed to be the epicentre of the epidemic.

Chinese government records also list at least five victims under 60 – with the youngest a 36-year-old man from Wuhan.

The death rate outside Hubei is 0.16 per cent, officials said.

Only two fatalities have been reported outside mainland China so far – a 39-year-old man in Hong Kong who had travelled to Wuhan and a Chinese traveller from Wuhan who died in the Philippines.

China’s National Health Commission (NHC) reported on Tuesday that there were 632 recoveries nationwide.

Of the 20,400 confirmed cases, the youngest is a one-month-old baby from the southern region of Guizhou and the oldest is 90.

Here’s what we know so far about the deaths:

Most victims were over 60

According to details released by health officials, the victims to die of the virus were between 36 and 89 years old.

At least five were under the age of 60.

The youngest victim, a 36-year old man from Wuhan, was hospitalised on January 9 and died of heart failure two weeks later, Hubei health authorities said, without offering details on whether he had any pre-existing medical conditions.

Among those who have been discharged from the hospital were younger patients, including a 35-year-old man from Shenzhen, a bustling tech hub in southern Guangdong province.

He was released from the hospital on Thursday, according to the local health commission, as well as the 10-year-old boy who had visited relatives in Wuhan before falling ill.

State-run Beijing satellite TV reported Sunday that a nine-month old girl infected by the virus in Beijing was also recovering.

Many had pre-existing health conditions

Many of those who died from the virus also had pre-existing health issues before contracting the Wuhan disease, such as diabetes and hypertension.

One man, an 86-year-old who was hospitalised on January 9, had surgery for colon cancer four years prior, on top of suffering from high blood pressure and diabetes.

Another, an 80-year-old woman surnamed Hu, had Parkinson’s Disease and more than 20 years of high blood pressure and diabetes in her medical history.

Not all of them had a fever

Currently, health authorities in several cities are screening passengers for fever at airports, railway stations, and bus terminals.

But not all those who died after being infected reported a fever before being hospitalised, according to the NHC.

A 66-year-old man surnamed Luo reported a “mainly dry cough” but no fever on December 22 before suffering from shortness of breath more than a week later.

By mid-January, Luo required a ventilator to help him breathe.

“A major concern is the range of severity of symptoms this virus is causing,” said Dr Jeremy Farrar, Director of the Wellcome Trust.

“It is clear some people are being affected and are infectious while experiencing only very mild symptoms or possibly without experiencing symptoms at all,” he said.

Two deaths outside mainland China

A 39-year-old man in Hong Kong who had the virus died Tuesday, the city’s Hospital Authority said.

It was the second outside mainland China after the Philippines reported Sunday the death of a man from Wuhan.

The death of the 39-year-old man in Hong Kong came as the semi-autonomous city closed all but two land crossings with the Chinese mainland to slow the spread of the virus.

Hong Kong media said the man had underlying health issues that complicated his treatment. He had visited Wuhan last month.

Hong Kong has been particularly on edge over the virus as it has revived memories of the SARS outbreak of 2002-03, which killed nearly 300 people in the financial hub and 349 people in the mainland.

High blood pressure, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease are so commonplace that everyone reading these words likely knows somebody with at least one of these maladies.

They are also the “underlying conditions” most associated with severe cases of COVID-19, based on early clinical profiles on the disease. Even though 80 percent of COVID-19 cases are mild, these reports reveal that the novel coronavirus can endanger people other than the elderly and infirm.

The idea that the virus only poses a threat to older people comes from focusing too heavily on COVID-19’s death rate, which the World Health Organization updated last Wednesday to 3.4 percent. This rate is an average across ages, and the chances of dying do rise among older people.

But evidence also shows that COVID-19 is more fatal across all age groups than seasonal influenza, with death rates six to 10 times higher for those under 50. Moreover, death isn’t the only danger, and severe cases of COVID-19 are more common among young adults than you might think.

A study published February 28 in the New England Journal of Medicine, for example, examined the age breakdown for 1,099 coronavirus patients. The majority of non-severe cases—60 percent—are teens and adults between 15 to 49 years old, which might suggest this group is spared the worst of the virus.

In truth, severe cases were slightly more abundant among this younger demographic. Of the 163 severe cases reported in the study, 41 percent were young adults, 31 percent were aged 50 to 64, and 27 percent were above 65. The only age group spared by severe COVID-19 appeared to be kids under 14.

Millennials and Gen Z are also just as likely to catch the coronavirus as older groups, according to the largest profile to date on COVID-19, a clinical report of more than 72,000 patients published February 21 by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. So rather than rely on age to gauge who is most threatened by COVID-19, doctors say you may want to look at common underlying conditions and how they correspond with the death rates reported by the Chinese CDC. Doing so can offer clues on how to protect you and your loved ones.

“The death rate from this outbreak is high. We shouldn’t categorize it by young or senior,” Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organization, said during a Monday briefing. “We cannot say that we care about millions when we don’t care about an individual who may be senior or junior … Every individual life matters.”

Cardiovascular complications

The novel coronavirus tears apart the lungs, but the underlying condition most connected with COVID-19’s worst outcomes are afflictions of the heart.

Nearly half the adults living in the United States have high blood pressure. Likewise, diabetes is a household name, with one of every 10 Americans—34.2 million across all ages—dealing with the metabolic disorder. Both can factor into cardiovascular disease, a wide spectrum of disorders that kill one person roughly every 37 seconds in the United States.

Though the specific influence of COVID-19 on the cardiovascular system remains unclear, the American College of Cardiology states, “there have been reports of acute cardiac injury, arrhythmias, hypotension, tachycardia, and a high proportion of concomitant cardiovascular disease in infected individuals, particularly those who require more intensive care.” One study of 150 patients from Wuhan, China—the epicenter of the coronavirus outbreak—found that patients with cardiovascular diseases had a significantly increased risk of death when they are infected.

That’s because the heart and lungs are incredibly interconnected. Breathe in and out rapidly, and your pulse automatically increases its pace. But if your heart is already weak or you have blocked arteries, then you are working harder than a normal person to circulate blood and oxygen throughout your body.

“If this new virus enters our communities as it has been, I really worry for my cardiac patients,” says Erin Michos, a cardiologist and director of Women’s Cardiovascular Health at Johns Hopkins Medicine in Baltimore. “During their day-to-day existence, their heart is having trouble pumping efficiently, and then you add a serious respiratory infection on top of that. That’s the tipping point.”

China Scapegoat for Western Greed and Incompetence March 28th 2020

China is set to reap the whirlwind of Europe’s coronavirus resentment

China is set to reap the whirlwind of Europe’s coronavirus resentment

• Benedict Spence
• Benedict Spence

China has responded rapidly to the outbreak of coronavirus in Europe, sending doctors, ventilators, masks and other medical aid to the worst-affected places. Indeed, it appears to have acted far quicker to this outbreak than to its own – had that been the other way round, Europe’s outbreak might not be so catastrophic. ( sic, the borders should have been closed immediately in all Europe. )

Yet despite the offers of help, gratefully received in some quarters, others have been far more sceptical about Beijing’s motives. Many suspect they amount to a form of whitewashing – an effort to distract from initial failings and shift the focus away from who bears responsibility for the rampage of the virus through continents.

Britain like all the wester, has been happy to sell of industry to China and buy cheap high quality goods from this low wage, but highly organised rising nation, so feared for its military, especially now it has been driven into ever clsoer alliance with Russia.

We will never know the truth behind Corona because no elite, east or west can be trusted. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Social distancing: new study suggests two metres is not enough March 28th 2020

People may still be at risk even when they are more than two metres away from an infected person By Sarah Knapton, Science Editor 27 March 2020 • 7:00pm

The two-metre social distancing rule being used to keep people apart may need to be four times bigger to prevent coronavirus from spreading, a new study by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) suggests.

Currently, people are being asked to keep a distance of around 6ft 6in when out in the community, and many supermarkets have now stuck lines of tape to the floor to ensure adequate separation between shoppers when queuing.

But the new analysis by MIT has found that viral droplets expelled in coughs and sneezes can travel in a moist, warm atmosphere at speeds of 33ft to 100ft per second (ten metres to 100 metres), creating a cloud that can span approximately 23ft to 27ft (seven metres to  eight metres)….

Comment We all give up and die then leaving the asset stripping to the global elite. It just gets more and more impossible. The facts are that only those with a pre existing medical condition, inlcluding young victims have died.

Self Employed Relief ? March 28th 2020

It was the news the self-employed had been waiting for – how the Government is going to help them through the coronavirus crisis. But many Britons who work for themselves will be left with unanswered questions, chief among them: How to survive until June? Unemployment is set to soar after the Chancellor delayed a bailout for at least two months. Announcing a £9bn package for self-employed workers, Rishi Sunak acknowledged that millions will have to claim welfare until the summer if they have no other money. When the payments begin (80pc of someone’s average monthly profits up to £2,500 per month), some will be ineligible. Marianna Hunt answers all your questions. In the US, the number of people applying for employment benefit after losing their jobs rose to four times than at any other time in the country’s history – as the nation overtook China with the most confirmed coronavirus cases.

Meanwhile, the housing market is effectively on hold after the Government discouraged buyers from going ahead with house sales and purchases. Lenders have agreed to extend all purchase loan offers by three months to give borrowers more time to complete transactions.

Third of virus sufferers may not show symptoms

By now, most of us could probably recite the main coronavirus symptoms. But health chiefs have warned that as many as a third of victims in the UK may never develop them – and could still pass it on. Public health officials also admit hospital staff who are “asymptomatic” may be fuelling the spread of the disease, for want of basic protective equipment. They announced an urgent review of provision of such kit, as the UK death toll rose by 115 to 578. Writer Eilidh Hargreaves shares the seven things no one tells you until you get mild symptoms.

The moral meaning of the plague

David Brooks – The New York Times – 27 March 2020

It can all seem so meaningless. Some random biological mutation sweeps across the globe, murdering thousands, lacerating families and pulverizing dreams.
Life and death can seem completely arbitrary. Religions and philosophies can seem like cruel jokes. The only thing that matters is survival. Without the inspiration of a higher meaning, selfishness takes over.
This mind-set is the temptation of the hour — but of course it’s wrong. We’ll look back on this as one of the most meaningful periods of our lives.
Viktor Frankl, writing from the madness of the Holocaust, reminded us that we don’t get to choose our difficulties, but we do have the freedom to select our responses. Meaning, he argued, comes from three things: the work we offer in times of crisis, the love we give and our ability to display courage in the face of suffering. The menace may be subhuman or superhuman, but we all have the option of asserting our own dignity, even to the end.
I’d add one other source of meaning. It’s the story we tell about this moment. It’s the way we tie our moment of suffering to a larger narrative of redemption. It’s the way we then go out and stubbornly live out that story. The plague today is an invisible monster, but it gives birth to a better world.
This particular plague hits us at exactly the spots where we are weakest and exposes exactly those ills we had lazily come to tolerate. We’re already a divided nation, and the plague makes us distance from one another. We define ourselves too much by our careers, and the plague threatens to sweep them away. We’re a morally inarticulate culture, and now the fundamental moral questions apply.
In this way the plague demands that we address our problems in ways we weren’t forced to before. The plague brings forth our creativity. It’s during economic and social depressions that the great organizations of the future are spawned.
Already, there’s a new energy coming into the world. The paradigmatic image of this crisis is all those online images of people finding ways to sing and dance together across distance.
Those videos call to mind that moment of Exodus when Miriam breaks into song. “It is the dance that generates the light,” Avivah Gottlieb Zornberg writes, “the women produce an energy in the light of which all participate equally in the presence of God.”
Already there’s a shift of values coming to the world. We’re forced to be intentional about keeping up our human connections. Relationships get forged tighter by the pressure of mutual dread. Everybody hungers for tighter bonds and deeper care.
Wouldn’t it be great to possess the quality that one biographer found in the novelist E.M. Forster: “To speak to him was to be seduced by an inverse charisma, a sense of being listened to with such intensity that you had to be your most honest, sharpest, and best self.”
There’s a new action coming into the world, too. I was on a Zoom call this week with 3,000 college students hosted by the Veritas Forum. One question was on all their minds: What can I do right now?
I was on another Zoom call with 30 Weavers, and each one of them had begun some new activity to serve their neighbors. One lady was passing out vegetable seeds so families could plant their own vegetable gardens. Others are turning those tiny front-yard libraries into front-yard pantries. Some people are putting the holiday lights back up on their houses just to spread some cheer. You can share your social innovation here.
There’s a new introspection coming into the world, as well. Everybody I talk to these days seems eager to have deeper conversations and ask more fundamental questions:
Are you ready to die? If your lungs filled with fluid a week from Tuesday would you be content with the life you’ve lived?
What would you do if a loved one died? Do you know where your most trusted spiritual and relational resources lie?
What role do you play in this crisis? What is the specific way you are situated to serve?
We are all assigned the task of confronting our own fear. I don’t know about you, but I’ve had a pit of fear in my stomach since this started that hasn’t gone away. But gradually you discover that you have the resources to cope as you fight the fear with conversation and direct action. A stronger self emerges out of the death throes of the anxiety.
Suffering can be redemptive. We learn more about ourselves in these hard periods. The differences between red and blue don’t seem as acute on the gurneys of the E.R., but the inequality in the world seems more obscene when the difference between rich and poor is life or death.
So, yes, this is a meaningful moment. And it is this very meaning that will inspire us and hold us together as things get worse. In situations like this, meaning is a vital medication for the soul.

Comment There have been several media efforts to liken Corona Virus to the Bubonic Plague, none of them mentioning the common factor of iternational trade. The black rat infesting the grain ships carried the flea that carried the plague.

Our post industrial revolution generations, motivated by greed ignore this or are not taught. Europe should have closed its borders as soon as China announced the problem. It chose not to. Media and politicians are also rather quick to denounce any link with terrorism, possibly enemy state sponsored against China. Whatever, the decision to shut down the global economy will hit the world’s poor creating mass suffering and perfect conditions for all manner of desease, hunger and violence. Those who have taken those decisions are either morons or have a gidden agenda.

It is extremely creepy the way that this virus which has a lower kill rate than normal flue and appears only to kill those already ill, is being used to revive Britain’s romantcised Blitz and Dunkirk spirit- witness the ridiculous so called bonding exercise of the British NHS ‘Clapathon’ for our brave NHS workers who are off sick at a rate of 50% and threatening strike if they don’t get more safety gear..

A man has been jailed for threatening to cough over a police officer. The state has assumed dictatorial powers, shutting down criticism, giving police more power to ban association.

National Hysteria the new U.K norm. March 28th 2020

There is not a set definition for a pandemic, but a virus is thought to become a pandemic when it becomes prevalent across the world.

Coronavirus had previously been classified as an epidemic, as the majority of coronavirus cases were first reported in China.

But the rapidly increasing number of cases in other countries, such as Iran, South Korea and Italy, meant the virus’ status was upgraded.

So how does the COVID-19 outbreak compare to one of the worst outbreaks in human history, the Black Death?

The Black Death was an epidemic of plague which swept through Europe in the 14th century.

As far as we know, the Black Death originated in China, before spreading through the Middle East to Europe through trade routes in Italy.

The plague dramatically reduced the European population, with some experts predicting up to 60 percent of the population were wiped out.

The bacterium Yersinia pestis causes a number of plagues, and is usually spread by fleas on animals which can pass on the bacteria.

Plague still exists today, but it is now better understood how to effectively treat the disease.

Much of the world has witnessed a plague epidemic at some point, but most cases in the modern day occur in Africa.

The three most endemic countries for plague today are the Democratic Republic of Congo, Madagascar and Peru.

Corona virus is not the plague, but desease flourishes among the poor, especially in areas of overpopulation. Globalisation will ultimately bring the whole world down to third world levels and worse. At this moment, the global elite has aassumed Draconian powers while it works out how best to deal with us.

Since 9/11 Britain and the U.S have been killing tens of thousands in the name of their so called representative democracies, with a global footprint that is never mentioned. We are supposed to forget that the U.S boycotted the 1980 Olympic Games because Russia, the host, had invaded Afghanistan. Of course when Britain and the U.S did the same it was all good.

Climate change , concentration of ever increasing wealth extraction, elite oppressors , rolling wars which create desease as a by product and overpopulation are all outomes of greed fuelled globalisation..

Media obsession with regime change, including in Russia and China are part of the Bildeburg mindset. Silly people walking around in their ‘I am so important’ masks, will never understand or stop this madness.

Where are they leading us ?

We should be concerned as to where this is leading. Britain’s Chief Medical Officer saw no danger when China nnounced the problem. Borders were not closed. It is the open border and global economy and cruise ship mentality that facilitated the spread, but there are worthwhile alternative views as to how it started.

Multi cultural London is the hub of our flimsy service economy, densely populated and diverse. It is a hot potatoe and bound to have very serious probelms, with ethnic groups highly sensitive to any signs their needs are being negelcted.

There is no doubt that teh majority of deatsh relate to underlying medical conditions and that Covid 19 is less deadly than normal flu, unless there is more to it than is being admitted.

Shutting down the whole economy and social contact will have serious health effects, short and long term. Blaming individuals for flouting the rules is to let the politcians, bankers and big business who have been promoting globalisation since the 1980s appropriately named ‘BIG BANG’ , is letting them free to expolit this situation of their making, for more police state powers,

A Very Sick Country In More Ways Than One Posted March 27th 2020

Nurses will be transferred to London from other parts of England under NHS plans to help hospitals in the capital facing a “tsunami” of Covid-19 patients within days, the Guardian has learned.
In an unprecedented package of measures, the NHS will also ask doctors to sleep on site for six weeks at the newly-built Nightingale hospital, scrap limits on the number of patients nurses can look after in intensive care wards, and explore whether ventilators intended for one person can be used for two.
NHS England has also asked its network of regional chief nurses if they can spare any of their staff, especially those specialising in intensive care, to work in London during the peak of the pandemic – expected to start early next month.

The moves emerged as the total number of reported deaths in the UK rose to 578; one official said the NHS faced an “extreme surge” of seriously ill patients early next month.
The plans are part of a series of measures drawn up in recent days by senior officials from NHS England’s London region and disclosed to the Guardian.
NHS Providers, which represents hospital trusts, has warned that some hospitals in the capital are filling up so fast with people left seriously unwell from coronavirus that they will soon be full.

Last week Northwick Park hospital in north-west London had to declare a “critical incident” after it ran out of space for Covid-19 patients and doctors to intubate them so they could be put on a ventilator.
Officials involved in the NHS’s emergency preparedness effort in London have revealed that:

Chris Hopson, NHS Providers’ chief executive, said hospitals in London had expanded critical care capacity between five and seven-fold in the last few weeks, but bosses at those hospitals have been alarmed by the speed at which beds are filling up in the capital.

He said the problems had been exacerbated by medical staff being off sick with suspected coronavirus or in vulnerable groups, with 30% to 50% not at work in some trusts.
He did not name the trust where 50% of staff are currently off sick or self-isolating because someone in their household has symptoms, but it is a London trust.

Half a million people worldwide have now been infected by the coronavirus.
The figure was reached as the US passed Italy and China to record the highest number of confirmed COVID-19 cases at more than 82,000.
Italy has reported 80,589 confirmed cases, according to Johns Hopkins University, while China has recorded more than 81,000.

Comment There are nearly 7 billion people in the world. Officially this virus originated in poor dirty region of China, a mutation from virus affacting other animals living with humans in clsoe quarters. That may be a lie, but population densities and rapid growth are the key issue which elitists and anti racists deny.

As long as the bulk of wealth is in so few barely taxed elite hands, the situation is bleak for the masses. Aniti racism and anti sexism is a divide and rule tactic keeping attention away from the cause of the fire which is burning up our planet- an abstraction that would have been beyond me at Greta’s age. She is part of the smokescreen hiding the seat of the blaze.

Panic Buying March 27th 2020

Helen Lewis – The Atlantic – 26 March 2020

As pictures of empty shelves dominated our social-media feeds here in Britain, armchair critics denounced their fellow citizens as selfish and greedy. Stop hoarding! End the panic-buying!
Hang on, though. Were hordes of selfish Britons really squirreling away 90 tins of tuna each? As the fog of panic dissipates, the answer is clear: No. Instead, the data show that small changes in the habits of a minority of shoppers prompted lurid headlines about empty shelves—which then made others, quite rationally, change their behavior. That has led to short-term supply issues. (Neither of the two stores closest to me in south London has any eggs in stock, for example.)

Yet that relatively small, unexpected surge in demand was enough to generate social-media snapshots of bare shelves at inner-city supermarkets. When amplified by the traditional media, those frightening pictures convinced more of us that there was a problem with food supply. And, like in a bank run, perception quickly became reality. Big queues started to form. Online slots for supermarket deliveries filled up. The situation spiraled.

Any student of economics will tell you that modern supply chains rely on just-in-time ordering. In the case of British supermarkets, production schedules are tailored precisely to demand, so that unused stock does not sit in warehouses or go to waste. In the current crisis, the country has not run out of essential goods such as toilet paper; the difficulty is getting them onto the shelves quickly enough.

Urban couples and families, unlike their parents and grandparents, have their own version of just-in-time supply chains. They pick up milk on their way home from work. They buy six eggs from a local store, rather than driving to an out-of-town supermarket to load their larder for the week. That approach makes sense: British new-build houses have been getting smaller for decades, so some families simply do not have the space for a full-size freezer. Fewer of us drive now than did in previous decades, and keeping a car in a city can be expensive, particularly when it’s rarely needed. Young Britons also eat out more regularly than previous generations, so like supermarkets themselves, they don’t want to hold on to produce they might never use.
Under normal circumstances, this just-in-time system is convenient. Yet it is also, as we have discovered in the past fortnight, fragile.

This month, the government advised those with coronavirus symptoms to spend seven days at home “self-isolating.” Like many others, I read this advice, looked in my fridge, and thought, Yikes. My subsequent trip to the supermarket wasn’t evidence of hoarding; it was proof that I had been running an overly efficient supply chain into my own home. Changed circumstances meant I had to change my behavior.

Unfortunately for us all, so did many others. “Temporary shortages are being caused by people adding just a few extra items and shopping more often,” said Fraser McKevitt, the head of retail and consumer insight at Kantar, which monitors consumer spending. The company’s study of 100,000 British shoppers found that only 6 percent of those buying liquid soap, and only 3 percent of those buying pasta, “have taken home extraordinary quantities.”

Comment The surge in demand was a direct result of government, pushed by anti Brexit Labour, Brexit loving media and concern for suffering ethnic groups who vote their preferred way, into promoting panic- with the incredible government expert backed statement that the worst is yet to come. Incredible that they get away with it.

But as a journaist former teacher and college lecturer, I know how incredibly stupid people have been educated and brainwashed to be. It is also an outcome of this uni age where even pet dogs and cats have a right to help getting degrees, how clever they think they are. Brexiteers should now accept the obvious truth that Brexit is a nonsense.

Britain is not an innocent victim of European bureaurcrats and left wing lefties, it is a major source of supply in these commodities. It cannot sensibly distance itself.

The issue should have always been about reforming Europe. Britain’s elite always supported open borders, along with most Euro rules, initiating over 50 % of them and backing the rest. Now we have the absolute worst of all worlds. Robert Cook lecturer in political history and sociology Aylesbury College 1980-85

Death of Democracy ? Posted March 27th 2020

Annabelle Timsit – Quartz – 26 March 2020

During the Middle Ages, as the bubonic plague advanced across Europe, cities in Italy closed their ports, isolated plague victims, quarantined their families, and restricted the movements of all residents. These were extraordinary measures meant for extraordinary times—the Black Death killed more than 25 million Europeans in just four years.
The price of these measures was one that human beings have since willfully given up time and time again in exchange for a sense of security: Their rights. And it’s happening again now.
In order to fight the spread of the novel coronavirus, governments around the world have enacted similar measures, from quarantines and curfews to moves that have essentially paused the global economy. Public health experts say these are necessary to save millions of lives. But they also come with a significant loss of personal liberties. In France and Italy, people can only go outside once a day, armed with a permission form, and are fined if they don’t comply. In South Korea, health officials implemented what’s known as “contract tracing” by tracking Covid-19 patients using GPS data from their cars and cellphones—a significant invasion of privacy by most measures.
The problem with these measures is that seemingly everyone—from liberal democracies to dictatorships—is enacting them. And so it becomes difficult to tell the difference between what’s necessary in the name of the common good and what’s an attempt to extend or consolidate power for the longterm. The major difference may simply come down to the nature of the leader: One would be forgiven for trusting French president Emmanuel Macron more than Russian president Vladimir Putin, for example. But what about the leaders who inhabit a grey zone, somewhere between full-on autocrat and democratic steward? What about Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, or US president Donald Trump?
What’s clear is that this situation is an authoritarian leader’s dream. Fear “creates an opportunity for unscrupulous leaders” to seize power, says Chris Edelson, author of “Power Without Constraint: The Post 9/11 Presidency and National Security.” In emergencies, authoritarians can portray any opposition as anti-patriotism; their popularity typically skyrockets; and the guardrails that exist to prevent governments from seizing too much power tend not to work as well, or at all.
That means this moment isn’t just a test of our ability to live our lives indoors, or of our governments to keep the world economy from crumbling, or of the global community to work together to respond to an unprecedented public health crisis—it’s also a test for liberal democracy itself.
Coronavirus power grabs
Some leaders have gone further than closing down borders, quarantining Covid-19 patients, and forcing people to stay home. Hungary declared a state of emergency—a common tool for leaders to expand or prolong their power—over coronavirus on March 11. Last week, the government proposed a bill (pdf, link in Hungarian) that would extend that state of emergency indefinitely and authorize prime minister Orbán to rule by decree, essentially allowing him to sidestep the country’s parliament. Under the bill, individuals could face up to five years in jail for spreading false information “in such a way as to obstruct or frustrate the effectiveness” of the efforts to fight Covid-19.
“This legislation is very dangerous and it empowers Orbán practically with authoritarian powers,” says Daniel Hegedüs, a non-resident fellow for Central Europe at the German Marshall Fund, a Washington, DC-based think tank. But, he says, “the main goal is not just to pass this bill,” but rather to be able to blame the opposition if the death toll from the disease worsens, and to shift attention away from the government’s own response. “It’s a very important win for the government that, just in the last three or four days, the Hungarian media mostly wrote about this legislation, and not the state of the healthcare system.”
Meanwhile, Netanyahu has prevented his country’s parliament from convening and shut down Israeli courts, a convenient move for a leader up for reelection and facing a criminal trial for bribery, fraud, and breach of trust. The trial, which was due to start next week, has now been postponed until May. And in the dead of night on March 17, his government issued a decree authorizing the Israeli police to track the cellphones of Covid-19 patients, or those suspected of having Covid-19, without submitting it for approval from lawmakers.

In Russia, Putin proposed a set of constitutional reforms that Masha Gessen described in the New Yorker as allowing him to “further consolidate his power, perhaps by laying the groundwork for moving to a different job once his term—the last allowed by the current Constitution—is over.” Putin has since backtracked a bit, postponing a referendum on the constitutional amendments, which was set to take place in April. But the possibility of a power grab remains.
Given the nature of the leaders that govern Russia, Hungary, and Israel, it’s perhaps not surprising that they would see this moment as an opportunity to strengthen their power. But it’s also happening in Italy, where in late February, the government enforced a two-week quarantine at dock on nonprofit groups’ search-and-rescue vessels, raising concerns that many more migrants would die at sea.
Meanwhile, in the US, the Department of Justice (DOJ) asked lawmakers last week to extend its powers in a multitude of areas, from asylum requests to prosecutions. These new powers would allow DOJ to request that defendants be detained indefinitely without trial during emergencies.
Edelson draws parallels between this pandemic and 1942, when then-US president Franklin D. Roosevelt issued an executive order that put more than 100,000 Japanese-Americans into internment camps on the West Coast after Japan bombed the Pearl Harbor naval base in Hawaii. “The lesson we learned from the history of the United States is that you have to be skeptical. When presidents tell you things, it’s not always true. If I were a member of Congress, I would be asking tough questions.”
Overall, Edelson says, emergencies “create more…openings that a would-be authoritarian like Donald Trump can exploit.”
“I was concerned about liberal democracy in the United States before this crisis. I’m even more concerned now.”

Comment

Liberal Demcracy is a post Thatcher Regan label rather than a concept. The word democracy came out of Greek philosophy, merging the words demos (people) with krakos (power).

Europe experienced no notion of democracy pre Industrial Revolution. The Black Death and other famous plagues, such as London 1665 occured under feudalism and other tyrannies. The causes were unknown. populations were much lower, but 17th century London was squalid.

Like the Muslim extremist now screaming that Corona is God’s revenge on infidels, ignorance,religion, bigotry and tyranny were key to that age.

Ignorance is no excuse now, so Timist’s article is just more Russia bashing and faith in the nonesnese that Britain has ever been what the Greeks would have called Democratic. If it was, mass immigration , open doors, rampant expansion of air travel and censorship of free speech would never have happened.

Other views would have been considered. Blunkett, as Home Secretary famously said there was no obvious limit to mass immigration. Well given biological and psycholgical reality, there is. But in fake democracy, where fake news rules and ruins minds, this is la la land until the cruch comes as it seems to have done.

I say seems, because there is rather a lot of propoganda and nonsense surrounding official debate on Coronavirus. Oxford University, in consultation with Cambridge, have a rather different view of what is going on and how to repsond, compared to the governments’s ‘experts’ from arrogant Imperial College London. ideology and economic ‘ social engineering intent, in my view, has much to do with what is happening now.

The Oxbridge experts have had little publcity. Among other things, they argue the need for herd immunity, saying we are almost there. But there is globalisation, pandemic in the old Third World source of cheap labour and profit to consider first.

The Elite are out to gain from the masses’ loss whether they caused or engineered this so called crisis or not.

Hence Timsit being worried by Trump’s more realistic approach because he knows the so called official remedy is more deadly than the cure. So, is it possible there is a hidden agenda ? I think so.

The word liberal was originally applied to an economic free for all in Industrial Revolution Britain, not generosity or open mindedness. It was backed up by religious hypocrisy, promoted and defended by economic imperialistic wars, fought by the masses for the rich.

The Liberals were just another British Politcial Party looking after the rich in a corrupt exclusive parliamentary system. What has changed beyond the technology , media and surveilance ? Robert Cook
