I’m re-reading The Hitch Hiker’s guide to the Galaxy and was reminded of one of the situations Ford and Arthur found themselves in. It’s where they end up on the B Ark which is transporting a huge number of people to a ‘new planet’ as they were told their current planet was doomed.
It was full of hairdressers, telephone sanitizers and suchlike.
They were told they would be joined by Arks A and C full of doctors and engineers (real ones, not the channel crosser types,) but that would never happen.
This was a planet’s solution to getting rid of all the useless non job people.
We could do with something like that now, send it off full of ‘diversity officers, gender management officers, equality resources officers and the like. All those in industry stopping work from being done and in general all those (woke) who are just a right pain.
As we approach another year I can’t help but cast my mind to say the new year of say forty years ago 1983 and compare the freedoms we then had with the encroachment of the state on our private lives that we have today.
It is of course true that Lady Thatcher’s policies were causing high unemployment as heavy industry was losing its protection from overseas competition. Privatisation also saw many made redundant but there were price reductions and better service as state industries were forced to become efficient in the private sector. It was tough medicine but in the end it worked for many and the UK experienced high economic growth with low ish inflation in subsequent years.
These days we see large sections of the state becoming ever more authoritarian in implementing a woke neoliberal agenda eg the judiciary, the police, the Civil Service, the Quangocracy, the entire education sector, almost all MPs, the MSM and their OFCOM enforcer, the charity sector , on and on the list goes.
Ordinary folks self censor what they put on SM platforms , afraid of visits from Plod, and are careful what they say to some family members. Freedoms is speech is dead and even dissent is becoming risky.
We wonder if we really will be forced to buy heat pumps to replace gas and oil boilers. Will our homes lose value if we don’t? Will we be forced to buyEVs ?
Will our countryside disappear under solar farms and thousands of wind farms and transmission pylons?
Will we be forced into unchallengeable lockdown at the whim of the WHO?
Will we have a load of young Muslim men billeted in our village or at a local hotel?
The list of things which the public doesn’t want but which may be forced upon us is long and will ruin our lives and the lives of future generations. Clearly something has gone wrong with the way we are governed , democracy has been reduced to a sham , our views and wishes don’t count and instead we are ruled by an the same unaccountable elite no matter who we vote for. Increasingly this seems to be the same in most Western countries.

Yesterday dooset said an attack on journalists is an attack on democracy – I beg to differ … journalists must be ‘approved ‘ – there is no democracy – it’s a lie .
My current position is that I despise journalists as the most corrupt people of all.
They are now – in general – left-wing activists who want to change the world to agree with them and are motivated by a hatred of the Right.
Starting with the run-up to Brexit, I have been stunned by their complete lack of any sense of ‘journalistic ethics’ to report the whole truth. And it has steadily got worse each time they get away with it.
Our ‘democracy’ has now failed completely because the fox is guarding the henhouse. We are now committed to the path where it will eventually lead. I wonder where that is.
Looks like Biden and Ursual Von der Brain Dead are both about to destroy the West in a collective act of scorched Earth – on our side.
They are proposing to seize Russian assets which is about the most insane thing any country could do. It’s happening because the US Demorats are so utterly corrupt and devoid of a moral compass that they cannot see stealing other peoples stuff is not only wrong, it’s against the law.
Not that Socialists / Marxists care they do as they please and hang the consequences which most often never visit them.
But it’s the long term effect which is the issue, because what other country which might buy Western Debt (bonds stock, property etc) or invest in our countries would do so if they know any capricious greedy government might steal it from them on a whim?
This is the end of the USD as world reserve, and the end of the Euro full stop as Von Der Brain Dead drives it full speed into the ditch. It’s probably going to be the death of the pound as well and Europe might well descend into a civil war.
De-Dollarisation as a result of sanctions is already underway, this will accelerate it and even if they don’t do it the talk of it is going to be enough to worry investors.
As for the “little people” reading this, don’t think you’re safe, because if they can come after Russias assets, what’s to stop them coming after yours? That house you lived in was acquired by “White privelege” it’s the states now for a family of migrants you oppressed.
I’m sure you get the picture of where this leads.
Erghh, these events and what is to come are all explained in detail in ‘The Committee of 300’ by John Coleman. Of course, he was just a conspiracy nut so I would just laugh at him and dismiss him as a swivel-eyed loon who hasn’t bothered to get his jab because he hates granny. On the other side of the coin isn’t it uncanny how all of his predictions seem to be coming true? Who ‘would have adam-and-eved’ it as they used to say in those parts of London now long gone. In other words this demolition of the West was planned centuries ago.

Just seen something of a riot on You Tube, taking place in Camberwell, south London. This incident appears to be down to “Tensions in the Eritrean community.” Now, I’ll be honest, I didn’t actually know that we had an Eritrean community in London, but I’m not surprised…I mean, every other bugger seems to be there…
I’m afraid I’m not sure what their beef is about, but it’s getting quite heated with the police coming under sustained attack. No firearms as far s I can see, just planks of wood and bricks. Ah bliss, the endless benefits of multiculturalism…
You know, if it’s not one lot of malcontented immigrants then it’s another. Every Saturday we’ve got the ragheads on the rampage, wanting to annihilate Jews. Caribbeans love a spot of unpaid shopping in the West End (they get quite shirty when they’re asked to part with any money) and there are numerous internecine feuds that have nothing whatsoever to do with native Londoners…Oh and we’ve got a useless runt Pakistani as mayor.
Thank the Lord I had the good sense to move out. London is now a multiethnic shithole, that’s swiftly heading down the sewer. Best place for it.
And on that cheerful note…
Happy New Year!
Wait until the establishment and its BBC lackies experience “Tensions in the English community”.

‘Bangladesh sees dramatic rise in lightning deaths linked to climate change’
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-67779223
Here’s a new BBC weasel-word : ‘linked’ to climate change instead of ‘due to’. It could mean absolutely anything.
If ever a report needed the old ‘Without providing evidence ..’ leader we only get for Trump, Israel and Russia : this is it.
So I did a bit of checking and found this report.
‘Dewan et al. [2017] consider two major factors that
resulted in this large increase in lightning casualties:’
‘Potentially the most important factor is that reporting of
lightning casualties was due to an increase in cellular
phone subscribers’
‘Bangladesh increased in population from 107 million in
1990 to 163 million in 2016’
Click to access Lightning%20Fatalities%20and%20Injuries%20in%20Bangladesh%20from%201990%20through%202017_R.L.%20Holle%20et%20al.pdf
Climate change is nowhere to be seen.
And none of them are mentioned in the BBC report. It gives very vague statements inferring it is entirely due to climate change then quickly changes to the full-on empathy stories of the victims.
Here’s the usual clone responsible for it:
Absolutely pathetic. This is a very dirty way of pushing their leftist agenda : infer what you want people to believe at the start then swamp it with empathy to stop them thinking about it or questioning it. Exactly like they are doing in Gaza.
That face.
Guest Who
That face reminds me of sloths. They are almost human in their expressions
They’re vicious critters. Don’t be fooled by the ‘cuddly’ face and apparently slow movements, they can strike lightning quick and will attempt to claw your eyes out given half a chance, even jaguars are scared to tackle them, and they do not make good pets (despite Hollywood idiots) – seriously!
UK TV likes that face. Because… reasons.
Thing is, no matter what the age, behind it is seldom a very pleasant person to match.
Given the media commitment to backendofbusism though, it’s going sour quickly, as they start off looking like Narinder, pass through this Myskaesque phase and end up a twisted YAB.
No wonder the males seem unkeen.
I saw that “lightning linked” Bangladesh thing … – right next to the BBC pumping “doom in Antarctica”.
It is relentless repetition = truth, which we know is one hallmark of cultish thinking.
drip, drip, drip
The omissions and simple untruths pile up.
They are taking the piss.
“Nasa, the UN and the government of Bangladesh cite increased storminess due to climate change as a reason for the increase in deadly strikes.”
300 a year die of lightning vs 20 in the US
Tweeted by @BBCNewsAsia and @BBCScienceNews (X has suppressed 2 of the 5 replies)
story by Rajini Vaidyanathan (photo above) her previous climate tweets
As per usual citing doesn’t equate to actual evidence – Bangladesh is, iirc one of the rainiest places on the globe (the fabled Cherrapunji “rainiest place” is just over the northern border) and I might well be wrong but at those latitudes (and in Indian subcontinent) rain rarely happens without associated thunderstorms.
Bangladesh 1200 peeps /sq km, USA is 35 /sq km as in 35x denser population for starters – there are other variables not least topography and reporting standards that confound comparison.
More utterly mendacious climate BS from an outfit determined to be the leader in climate lies and misdirection.
The subhead should read “Contrived Rubbish + Lies”
If we stop driving cars and pay more taxes I’m sure it’ll save hundreds of Bangladeshis from electrocution.
As for X – I reckon Musk only has a tenuous grasp of the outstations like UK where they really haven’t changed their ways since he bought the outfit as far as I can see.
Just a random thought, re: lightning strikes in Bangladesh, but as you increase the density of human bodies in a country, mathematically the odds of anyone of those bodies getting hit by lightning must increase.
Another random thought, but if you chop down a lot of the trees in a country (cf. increasing density of population) then you must not only increase the likelihood of being hit by lightning, and of flooding and soil erosion, but also impact on the local humidity and weather conditions, and thus ‘climate’ (cf. chopping down all the trees reduces shade).
Seems to me most (all?) of Bangladesh’s many problems boil down to not knowing when to stop having babies.
It’d be useful to see if there’s any common threads in the electrocution deaths that might be susceptible to mitigation via simple fixes.
All too easy to imagine that the hut the family sheltered in had a tin roof that wasn’t tied to ground. A charge sensor install in at “risk” areas maybe?
I’d wager that there are some areas of exceedingly dense lightning strikes in Bangladesh – I wonder if the fatalities are clustered where the blue map bits are? 4 metres of rain is almost 5 times more than Manchester.
– but squawk !!! Climate Crisis !!
is far more to the BBC git taste, isn’t it?
And obviously nothing to do with houses often being crammed to the gills with huge extended Bangladeshi families including multiple generations meaning that a strike on a dwelling would probably put at risk 20 or 30 people in the house rather than the average of 3 or 4 in European home for instance.
We are already seeing instances of houses in the North of England being super-sized to home multiple generations of immigrant families. No doubt the local planning authorities would rather stick pins in their eyes than investigate such dangerous overcrowding as wel.
“20 or 30 people in the house rather than the average of 3 or 4 in European home for instance.”

UPDATE: in one singular direction.
In this vid, Dr Gavin Ashenden spells out the clear and present danger that islam poses to the UK and the West. He also discusses Leftism, immigration, so-called racism, apocalyptic environmentalism and more.
Ashenden is a temperate, erudite and thoughtful speaker.
He’s also that rarest of creatures: a man of the cloth (former Chaplain to the Queen) with any balls.
(Contrast with limp-wristed Welby.)
Should be required viewing for beeboids.
(Note: the interviewer has a slight nervous affliction.)
People love Islam in the UK, they can’t get enough of it! If they can get Saudi Arabia to pay MPs to Islamise the country, and they don’t have to pay the going rate themselves, they will take all the Islamising the MPs can give them.
They really are that stupid.
Happy New Year to everyone. I haven’t posted much this year but I still read the information wisdom that is to be gleaned here.
Actually when I do get the urged to write a long meaningful comment I generally find that Doublethinker has already written what I was going to say, and is more coherent and convincing than I can be.
One resolution this year is to contribute a bit more to this site.
Keep up the good work folks!
It is just about one hour to midnight here and I am going to be a typical non-conformist and go to bed at 11.55
See ya next year
Well happy New Year Yasser ….i hope you got sleep …. More comments are always welcome – except for Marky and the troll who never mentions the BBC ….
The news seems to have bored with Gaza and now reporting missile exchanges on the Ukraine Russian border – some of which seem to be paid for by the British Taxpayer …..
No doubt there is a lot of secret squirrel stuff going on – but I wonder how / what revenge putin will take on the UK – and if he does – whether Biden will stick to Article 5 of the NATO charter –
Judging by the lack of close relationship I reckon the UK would be on its’ own again – after all the special relationship was no where to be seen during 1940 – except for taking our gold of course ….
Being a bit sleepless I checked the cost of a Eurostar and `ba flight to Paris from londonistan today – £800 tonight on Eurostar – £450 today on BA – this Wednesday it’s £71 …..
Biden and his corrupt Jewish cronies started the Ukraine war in order to get their greedy hands on the mineral wealth of both Ukraine and Russia.
This has been US policy ever since Obama. Alexi Navalny is a known CIA Washington plant and the US appears to have badly under estimated Russias intelligence and defence capabilities.
It gets worse though because the money the US is now pumping into the claws of defence contractors is being used to produce the same old tied weapons systems of yesterday, without the realisation war has moved on and is no longer the same as it was.
Both Ukraine and Israel have shown a need to develop greater anti drone and missile tech at reasonable costs.
We have a situation in Northern Israel where Hezbollah is firing empty pipes across the border and the expensive missile interceptors are going after them. Same now in the Red Sea, It all ‘Merica F*** yeah when they shoot down a houthi drone, but they never report the drone cost $10k and the missile $20 million plus !
The bigger question is how does America extricate itself from Ukraine, especially as most of the Ukrainian army has been killed, and they are now press ganging the women into fighting?
The Ukrainian army was prepared and equpped for war for many years. It was the biggest army in Nato (all Europe combined) and after two years it’s been wiped out. The US can’t even beat Iran let alone Russia their star is waning fast and it appears the damage Biden has done to the country will be the stuff of history books if they haven’t been revisionised !
Shame we can’t downvote comments here.
And why is that Rob?
Because I think you are talking anti-Semitic nonsense.
Ah yes the usual woke nonsensical response! Rob, do you actually know what anti Semitism is or is it just a convenient word to reach for when you have no idea how to respond, but don’t like what is being said?
Have you ever considered that before I wrote such a piece I actually had all the evidence and the name and the history to hand, and you haven’t got a clue?
how about emitting the other meaningless isms and fauxbias? I’m sure you can manage waycism sexism, homofauxbia ableism etc etc,all of them meaningless and all of them always deployed when someone has lost an argument and cannot put forward any opposing view.
I expect you think what you are writing is true. Doesn’t make it so. I dislike your anti-Semitic tropes.
Enough “hate speech” in the replies to entertain Constable Savage and his crew well into the New Year.
Blimey, they going to hire Carl Beech as researcher next?
Mutton dressed as lamb.
mutton dressed as ..er.. mutton?
Given the amount of deranged lefty / eco nut stuff swilling around this seems a bit slow to take off in Blighty…?
Perhaps a bad day for the BBC – it’s Hamas wing reports the ‘loss’ – actually – killing – of one Abdel-Fattah Maali…. A senior Hamas terrorist ( my words ) ….in an air strike – let’s hope he didn’t go too quick …… ( I know suck reports should be treated with deep caution … like anything related to the BBC ….
I need a bit of help here folks, not finding much to be positive about in the new year.
The Palestian liberation gang are trying to organize the biggest ever demo, and if you don’t support you are complicit in genocide…unless you’re working that day. Also encouraging a boycott of BAe systems- so targeting our legitimate businesses too.
Eritreans and Ethiopians fighting and attacking the police in London.
More obvious evidence that Islam is taking over.
Two big elections in the west with all the guff that brings, not to mention the outcomes.
At least with an Islamic takeover we don’t have to worry about the gender rubbish. Positive?
Answers on a postage stamp pls, they’re no good for anything else.
Lies shares with ‘all of us’.

Well, the 50-odd who listen to the BBc globally.
The Rwanda (Straw man) type solution will not work. It is an obfuscation and something for the government to use. They will say ‘look we did try but the lefty lawyers and labour prevented us’.
Here is why it will be easy for the migrants (in truth they are all illegal if they come over from a safe country into UK without UK permission).
Step 1.
Claim asylum. Claim life is at risk from country they have ‘escaped’ from.
Step 2.
Wait and see outcome of asylum claim. (Always the option to ‘disappear’ into a city and join accomplices, gangs, family members, etc).
Step 3
In the unlikely event that asylum claim fails and in the unlikely event they cannot disappear into a city then – they will receive unexpected good news. A communication from friend/relative/other from their home country to inform them that the government/militia etc has softened its position, removed the threat, mistakenly identified the individual, etc. Therefore it is now safe to return.
Step 4.
Get the lefty lawyer to explain that Rwanda can be removed as a solution for the individual as they can now return home.
Step 5.
(i) Can go home for a holiday and maybe try again.
or
(ii) Having now spent many months/years in UK get lefty lawyer to explain they are settled and have a life in UK (pregnant girlfriend, many friends, a settled home-life, etc).
or
(iii) If all of the above looks like failing after many months/years, use city contacts and ‘disappear’ into a city.
Rwanda solution is just one more lie.
Labour and Tory are like 2 bald men fighting over a comb (a solution). Both pretend they want it and need it but the real purpose for the squabble is to ‘play to the gallery’.
Same with the ‘let’s smash the trafficking gangs”, whilst there’s a need there will always be gangs. (Rhetorical question – Why do we see an endless supply of drug gangs). As one is broken more appear.
PS: I would sincerely love to be proved wrong but I think the above will be very close to how this will all play out in the LibLabCon future.
REFORM party – last chance saloon.
Sometimes I think I must be developing masochistic tendencies. Okay, I haven’t, as yet at least, resorted to donning nipple clamps and visiting Big Bertha for a spot of supervised “correction”, but I do occasionally take a gander at the Guardian website. Ouch!
I must confess I had a chuckle at their TV reviewer, who was giving us her take on the new Doctor Who, pretty much loathed by everyone else, but loved by her…and the BBCs equally appalling corruption of Agatha Christie’s, Murder is Easy…Ditto…
I can just imagine this female reviewer…almost certainly white, definitely middle class, probably privately educated, permanently fretting about the environment, probably a vegan…and about as much fun as a Radio 4 comedy starring Eddie (Suzie) Izzard…
It’s really like visiting Pseuds’ Corner. She was cooing about the new Doc’, some gay black geezer and telling us, “This is the first doctor I can imagine having a sex life.” Eugh! You know, that’s just so typical of these ghastly white liberals. Most of us don’t watch sci-fi and think about the intimate lives of our fictional heroes… But then, I’m guessing, most of us never thought about William Hartnell or Patrick Troughton in that way. Too white, too normal, too heterosexual…And in those long lost and innocent days, “Beam me up Scotty” wasn’t an unpleasant euphemism.
And she was wetting herself over Murder is Easy. She absolutely loved the way the bigoted little Englanders were shown up, making comments about “mud huts” and “Bongo-Bongo land.” This is how she wants the English to be perceived…but Agatha wrote none of this tripe and the only bigots here are the people producing this crap and this stuck-up woman who reviewed it.
And that’s what the BBC gives us these days; nasty, anti-white propaganda camouflaged as a ‘tec drama, comedy and even period pieces.
We pay for these parasites and they hate us…
The Guardian obviously missed a trick by overlooking the BBC’s latest release of The Famous Five. I sort of recognised four of the five characters complete with 1940/50’s children’s clothes but they appear to have uncovered a new elder cousin who is not only a “her” called George and black but also sports the latest fashion in clothes which makes for an odd looking group photo to say the least!
Usual beebist downcrapping of decent children’s stories.
They hate Enid Blyton, and this is their way of showing it!

Andrew Lawrence gives his unique take on the Eritrean and Ethiopian enrichers rioting last night – that the BBC did its best to avoid before burying it in Regions.
Small footnote: in the BBC report, they write: “Footage of the incident seemed to show people wielding sticks clashing with officers.”
‘Seemed’… really? Oh, no, BBC, they were most definitely and blatantly wielding sticks.
Happy new year of more enrichment.

Very sad to hear of the death of John Pilger. I was fond of him, and I think it was mutual, even though we disagreed on many things over the years. But I admired the force of his writing, even when I often didn’t support what he wrote, and he was always warm when we met.
He ‘thinks’? Hard to check now I guess.

You have to be able to laugh at the BBC offerings at the end of the year. Old , long retired James Naughtie wheeled out of retirement to talk to even older and more out of touch George Robertson about how awful Donald Trump is , blah, blah, Putin would love it if Trump were to be elected…tired boring unbalanced nonsense.

The problem with todays media, and the internet is knowing the media is lying all the time with omission of news, and the problem of finding reliable sources for that news which isn’t being told.
The latest is a story about the bloodthirsty and destructive Nettenyahu and his attempts to destroy Israel. To this end he has not only threatened to assasinate the head of Hamas, who happens to be in Qatar (?) but also the head of Hezbollah, who is in Lebanon.
We know Nettenyahu is a derranged lunatic who wants to drag America and the West into a war which they cannot win with Iran, and by extention China and the entire Muslim world, and also that Biden is a senile corrupt idiot who will do what ever the Jewish lobby in Washington tell him to do.
Now I understand that Israel faces threats from several of its neighbours and that it needs to defend itself, but there are ways of doing this effectively, competently and most importantly with a degree of safety.
What you don’t do is open a second third fourth fifth and sixth front with enemies who are infinitely more powerful than the small one you are currently struggling with in the belief that as you begin to lose it will force your large powerful ally to come to your rescue.
So now Israel has been forced to evacuate parts of Northern Israel as a result of Nettenyahu goading Hezbollah to war. Don’t think for a moment that this is the tea towel, sandal wearing poorly equipped tribesmen of old, because it’s far from it. Hezbollah are well trained and equipped and more than a match for the IDF these days.
The Russians in Iraq and Syria are taking a very measured approach. They have turned on the S300 and S400 anti air systems, although not to target Israeli jets – yet, but they are destroying the ordnance they are attempting to deploy.
These systems are regarded as the best in the world, and the West has nothing of a similar nature. Over the past week, the Ukrainians fired three HARM (air launched anti radar missiles) at Russian air defence and all were destroyed.
None of this is being reported in Western media, despite the fact that it could easily lead to a massive escalation in a regional war. There is also growing concern the Demonrats are planning to suspend the next Presidential elections and declare martial law to remain in power, which would almost certainly lead to civil war in America.
Maybe the Russians and Chinese are playing a clever game against a remarkable arrogant a stupid opponent in America. Who knows, but 2024 does not look like being a good year for anyone in the West.
‘we’ doing some serious lifting there.
You may be correct in some or indeed all, but I ‘know’ little of what you are privy to, and hence will watch with continued dread.
I think we see enough “Western Media” examples on here to know that mostly, they spout skewed rubbish and all too often omit gert slabs of important stuff.
Thoughtful – why would the Democrats need to ‘cancel ‘ an election they’ve already won ?are you implying the Biden really won the last one ? Really ?
He is the sitting President, for another year at least. Today I was listening to some of the quotes of previous Israeli leaders – household names at the time openly stating the control they have over the US.
Anyone who agrees to their control is left alone, but those who don’t agree find the Jewish lobby financing their opponents, first in the primaries, and if they still win through, financing the opposition so long as they agree to toe the line.
However listening to US comentary, the situation in Gaza is so indefensible that senators and congressmen are finding their voting base is so appalled they risk losing more support if they do support Israel, and even Biden is being forced to unwillingly concede some demands to what are reasonable people.
Nettenyahu is a dangerous man, in my opinion he is derranged, he claims part of this war is about getting back the hostages, yet when Hamas has offered a hostage swap Nettenyahu has rejected it and wanted to carry on indiscriminately killing civilians. He has had to be forced by Washington to accept the exchange, but he didn’t want to.
Things going on unreported such as the bulldozing of a cemetary to expose and mutilate the dead is beyond disgusting, and even if it isn’t being shown here it is in other parts of the world.
Dropping several bombs on a refugee camp because they ‘suspected’ a HAMAS commander was there, without absolute proof killing hundreds of innocent people, and even after the murder there was no proof the commander was even there. This constitutes a war crime.
I would like to see a state of Israel, a homeland for the Jews where other religions are able to visit use and practice their religions there, if the Palestinian state is re-established it’s doubtful that will carry on.
It’s also not common knowledge that Israel was in a virtual state of civil war prior to the HAMAS attacks such was the misguided rule of Nettenyahu
The US has the power to remove him, and it needs to excercise it if Israel is to have any kind of long term future.
A hot mess really … Obama’s antipathy towards Israel has been detailed around the place (he continuously and very deliberately rubbed the Israelis up the wrong way as well as other regional players) – but obviously, he’s Obamessiah to many and it’s liberal heresy to question the smug, jug-eared spook who in cahoots with his mates / sponsors installed the Biden embarrassment.
Biden is unravelling and the consequent desperation has manifested in a slew of mad policy choices – I don’t think there’s many sane people around Biden who have properly working relationships with Israel or indeed much grasp of what they’ve even got themselves into.
Nettenyahu does not operate in a vacuum and we aren’t as usual getting any clear picture from the keffiyeh sporting goons in the international Anglophone press corps as to what the assortment of groups in Israeli politics are actually up to and where public sentiment inside Israel is.
Obvious to say really … but it’s still a potentially explosive situation on a regional basis. I’ve no confidence that the White House neocon nutters have the skills or insight to contain a regional conflagration.

Western defence technology is becoming outdated. Appointing Black and Transsexual Generals in dresses is more important than military staff with brains. Pilots are drooping like flies after constantly being jabbed with the junk mRNA poison. Like with Climate science and vaccines, scientists have to agree with the administrators if they are to be paid. So the scientists push junk. Those scientists who are not positive about junk are demoted and sacked. So modern progressive vaccines and military equipment turn out to be junk. Trump and Kennedy could stop the rot. But they want to remove them from the ballot. The CIA wont protect Kennedy from assassins, and want Trump to be locked up in Guantanimo Bay.
BREAKING NEWS AT THE BBC
Family ‘heartbroken’ after Britons die in avalanche
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-67853989
Except everyone else covered it 2 days ago. Amazing what makes the headlines when actual murders (usually by 15 year old black boys with knives) often go straight to ‘regions’.
I often wonder what extremist at the BBC decides which stories get run as headlines and which get buried.
Ok hands up – I used to sort of ski – a girlfriend made me do it – I’m 6’4 which is not good for ski ing ( apparently ) and my excuse –
I hated it . I thought I’d was dangerous and ‘unneceary ‘ – but each to their own …
Another confession – I hate new years’ Eve ‘events ‘ I’ve been to some in londonistan which did not end well – so when I see that the weather might be a bit stormy – as it has been in east londonistan this afternoon – I wonder if the Emirs’ fireworks will be rained off ….?
For everyone who’ll avoid Mare Khaaan’s wet fireworks, (£20 a head, no refunds), here’s some rather disturbing introspection…
What’s the betting on the cancellation of the 2024 US election then?
Democrat Federal agencies clearing the way for the election fraud again – blame the Russians – sure they’ll prefer Obama to do a 4th term rather than President Trump …
I wouid think the tabletops are to make sure the next voter fraud can’t be evidenced …. ( like the last one )
Twice she was asked what would trigger cancellation of the election – twice she didn’t answer – fruit loop ….
I’m hosting a whisky tasting event – for 10.
If I surface tomorrow I’ll let you know how it went
🙂
If I don’t, you’ll know it went well.
If whisky actually tasted nice, I don’t think there would be many Scotsmen left.
I have to agree, it’s the one spirit I cannot drink, the smell of it knocks me sick for some reason. Brandy which isn’t really much different does not produce the same effect.
As for the Scotsman, any people who regard the agony bags as tuneful deserve their national drink!
Meanwhile tonight I have a bottle of Piper Heidseick Red Label.
They have invented many things though, I am led to believe copper wire was invented by two Scotsmen fighting over a penny.
And don’t fall for that one that the Chinese invented everything, they eat with chopsticks.
Thats why they never invented custard.
I’m ok with some whiskies but there are others whose smell alone makes me heave, I have no idea why. So I no longer drink it.
Any particular favourite Brissles ?.
I have a range myself – all the way from Lagavulin to Glen Grant – though I have to say the Lagavulin only comes out when I fancy something REALLY different.
I think I own a square foot of peat bog somewhere up there from a promotion they did once.
I got rather ill on Springbank 10 year old one New Years Eve on the Scottish west coast and had to play golf the next day, but it was at the coast so plenty of opportunity to recycle it at frequent intervals.
“Nose
A vibrant cereal note introduces our flagship Springbank dram, along with notes of gooseberries, mango, vanilla pods, grapes and honeycomb.
Palate
The fruit and cereal notes carry through to the palate in hints of oatmeal, malted barley and orange pulp. Heather honey, hard toffee, nutmeg and cinnamon notes develop.
Finish
A characteristic sea salt note rounds off this dram.”
I didn’t notice these subtleties when it came back up the next day.
I would have said :
“a strong note of hydrochloric stomach acid with hints of old prawn vol au vents, Walkers crisps and cheese on a stick.
Finish
doubled up on the beach gasping””
Being a bit of a pillock, I still love Glenfiddich, as it ticks all my boxes for price, taste and enjoyment!
It used to be Glenmorangie, but that started to smell a bit peaty after the odd glass, so it’s the market-square stuff for me!
My neighbour made great friends of us when we bought some Laphroaig, and I still wonder why he just wandered in to ask some inane question, and while he was here, he’d glance across to the shelf of the bottles of the niceties…
No I don’t!
lol, I meant Laphroaig Scrobs !. God knows why I wrote Lagavulin. Been ages since I had that.
Of course it would be easier to call it TCP because that’s what it smells like.
Careful John, that might make you liable for Scottish taxes.

It’s so easy avoiding the Beedoid autocuers! They invite criticism, but are so thick that they don’t really understand that like other civil serpents, they’re just grey back-grounders, not serious professionals!
Ha ha ha! They don’t get a penny from me these days, so sod the lot of them!

As I begin my customary New Years Eve descent into the abuse of alcohol and breathtaking consumption of the most unhealthy kinds of fare, I would like to wish all my like-minded friends here the best of health for 2024 and beyond.
Happy New Year 🥳
And may I offer my best wishes to you John!
You seem to do so much research in your posts, and I relish the times when you uncover the trash that Beeboids and their autocue-readers litter the MSM with, so more strength to your elbow Young Man!
A Happy New Year to you and all your family – wherever they may be!
Thank you kindly sir.
As a software engineer, I relate to this computer stuff so it’s quite easy to research what the BBC just wrote. The giveaway is always the slightly unexpected wording in their reports. It’s ALWAYS deliberate to mislead without lying.

“Swedish MEP ‘utterly destroys’ leftist in EU Parliament attack: ‘Bats*** crazy!’
A sharp-tongued attack from a Swedish MEP on a “scruffy” anti-Israel Irish MEP from the Left group has earned plaudits from Jewish commentators.
The brutal putdown from Sara Skyttedal saw the Christian Democrats representative describe Mick Wallace as a member of the “bats**t crazy left”
During a debate on Israel in the European Parliament, Ms Skyttedal addressed the Irish MEP, who was dressed in a pink t-shirt, jeans and sandals.
She told the house: “I am deeply concerned about my Irish colleague from the Left group. Antisemitism is on the rise throughout Europe and an elected official continues to spread antisemitic messages.
“Also, this is a war that started because of terrorism, a war between a democratic state and a terrorist group. But in your upside down world you are calling the democratic state the terrorists and not even mentioning the atrocities by Hamas.
“This, my dear colleagues, is a clear example of the bats**t crazy left that does not belong in any elected chamber let alone this one.”

Hopefully 2024 brings more of this – exasperatingly few in Westminster Parliament have the gumption to challenge the alarmist nuts and fraudsters.
The next best thing to a useful idiot!
What a prat!
The replies are very amusing, including Jeremy Clarkson there doesn’t appear to be a single positive one!
Looks like loadsamoney overtime and truncheoning those not moving fast enough out of town?
This is London Mr Mayor.
Why do the zombies in the Mare’s ‘office’ all have stary eyes?
Must be a sort of complaint with lefties , like some sort of affliction, which you need to be able to ‘work’ there…
I’m confident that the BBC have 2024 committee meeting agenda menus full of stuff pertaining to how to monster this guy….
