      ‪Engineering is, or should be more than just making things because it is possible. It needs to consider if they should be made, based on impacts.

      Hence many disciplines come into play or, to use that word again, should. As with recalling history.

      I merely share for interest.

      https://www.lifeinnorway.net/tafjord-tsunami/

      Geological investigations show such as these have scoured valleys globally before.

      And nearby to a big city on the West Coast of the USA, where lots more people now live than before.

      It may be noted that when Krakatoa detonated, many fewer Swedish tourists on beaches around and about perished than a recent Boxing Day. In part due to there being no beaches until mangrove swamps were cleared to make way for Swedish tourists.

      Not everything nature does is affected by man (raising water levels artificially can, clearly), but can be orders of magnitude worse on man when it does.

      Hence I prefer political decisions, especially those involving fiscal resources, based more on sensible contingency and realistic mitigation rather than keeping Caz Lucas happy, propping up Guardian media rates, or flying Ministers to COPs, joined by overpaid BBC arts grad climate propaganda scribes.

    The man who doesn’t exist on the BBC radar….nor in their news…the man who had grave doubts about Jason Arday long before Nathan Cofnas came on the scene[invited on by a Cambridge insider].

    Odd how the BBC is just not interested in investigating the claims made against Arday and instead shouts ‘racism’…and even that is a lie, most notably with Cofnas whose ‘racism’ was in fact quoting statistics produced by Harvard University’s own studies.

    They warned us Britons might be caught up in the floods in that far-off mountainous Himalayan state of Nepal.

    And to prove a point today the papers are awash (if you’ll excuse the term) with British names: Britons named among hundreds missing in Nepal flood disaster… Neetu Goyal Tiwari, Mala and Bipin Patel from Coventry, and nurse Sarada Simkhada from Dartford (virtual online-only Independent)

    Family celebrating son’s Durham place lost in Nepal floods… Santosh Sahu, 46, Surabhi Manmath Padhy, 44, and their children… from Surrey (Times)

    The ever-excitable Mail highlights a former beauty queen: Millionaire beauty queen from Surrey missing in Nepal floods… Former Mrs India UK contestant Surabhi Sahu

    There’s a contradiction of sorts on the cover page of the Express – if you think about it…

    On the one hand the title celebrates: Dolly offered to take experimental cancer drug to help others

    And on the other hand pushes a rather clever branding for its by now long-running euthanasia on the NHS campaign: Boost for our Give Us Our Last Rights campaign…

    In case you were wondering… they’ve got Esther Rantzen on board and now Andy Burnham says he will abstain…

    PM says he’ll remain neutral… Burnham vows to stay out of assisted dying vote… he did not want to “unduly influence the debate as Prime Minister” (Express) – well isn’t that just the sort of decisive leadership we were hoping for from bouncing Burnham?

    A breath of fresh northern air after flip-flopping forensic Keir Starmer.

    The Premier had recently sparked alarm by suggesting that the country’s struggling palliative and social care systems should be fixed before the legalisation of assisted dying (Express) – having arrived at No 10 and looked at the books, so to speak, our Andy has seemingly acknowledged his ambition of fixing the NHS is simply barm pie in the sky.

    The Independent is still Brexit deranged: Exclusive… Damning findings… The true cost of Brexit… – no change there then. And according to the left-leaning socialistic title: 98.2% of businesses want to rejoin the EU single market – bugger democracy if that’s what the corporations want.

    The left-leaning junior poundshop Graun that is the i paper is all about the Burnham bounce: Burnham bounce: Labour leapfrogs Farage in polls – after he loses voters to Restore

    Leapfrogged, eh? I’m oddly reminded of a little ditty from that musical drama satire of the 1960s and later movie Oh! What a Lovely War

    Sung to the tune of ‘John Brown’s Body’

    One staff officer jumped right over another staff officer’s
    back.
    And another staff officer jumped right over that other staff
    officer’s back,
    A third staff officer jumped right over two other staff
    officers’ backs,
    And a fourth staff officer jumped right over all the other
    staff officers’ backs.

    They were only playing leapfrog…

    Healey to defer defence spend target… 3% of GDP by 2030 goal shelved… quit as defence secretary over what he saw as inadequate aims on military spending under Keir Starmer (FT)

    Surrender! John Healey quit in protest at Starmer’s refusal to spend 3%… Now, as Chancellor, HE’S shelved same target… (Mail)

    And yet Burnham thought it was good idea to poke the bear…

    Whenever I see or hear about the ‘Burnham bounce’, I’m reminded of that great High Jumper, Dick Fosbury, who invented the ‘Fosbury Flop’…

    I guess if I was a poet, I’d reconcile this with the action of a nonentity coming from nowhere, doing a ‘u’ turn immediately some high hurdle gets in the way, then leaping up, waving his arms and going over backwards in a heap of arms and legs…

    But then, I’m not a poet… but we always admired a real sportsman doing the business in a time when the Olympics was full of proper sportsmen and women…

      Reform lost by ( I think) 34 votes. Restore only got 10% but that was enough to knacker the Reform vote. It’s ridiculous…

      I quite understand that most Restore supporters are on the right side, but I fear the party has been been infiltrated. I read that Restore insiders were seen celebrating the result. Why?

      A Green win in Dover…of all places…has given the green light to our ghastly government and treacherous media to push on with even more illegal invasions.

      Not that they need any encouragement…

      Pennick added: “This is a protracted incident that will see crews on scene for the remainder of the day as they work to fully extinguish the fire.”

      The LFB earlier said that the blaze was under control by about 5pm. Its cause was not yet known and was under investigation, the LFB added.

    Guilty Secret.. I subscribe to the telegraph but only at a cheap cheap rate …
    Today there is an ‘essay ‘ about lawlessness in Middlesbrough … it’s by of all people Simon Heffer . Heffer writes like a tourist having been forced to visit the place – and sneering about it – from his Westminster blob perspective .

    It’s pretty obscene stuff – his uniparty has encouraged welfare dependency and the acceptance of white British people being an ‘inconvenience ‘ …. And in the worst case ‘victims ‘ – see paki rape torture gangs ….

    Anyway – he doesn’t chuck up any real remedies – because he knows his uniparty class have no interest in the white English because they are to be replaced in around 20 years or less .

    Im not going to put the essay here because it is simply a waste of time – as is Heffer –
    Whose wiki entry confirms my prejudice against him – and his sneering type .

    The real remedy for Middlesbrough is – build a new yoof club – that always works … ping pong and snooker …I wonder if the locals will put a special ‘commemoration ‘ of their 5 dead ‘heroes ‘ Saturday night ….

    I wonder……

    Could it be that Restore and Reform have a ‘cunning plan’

    With the Restore vote stopping Reform and letting the Greens win i(in Dover I think) young Andy may be tempted to go for a GE thinking Restore will stop Reform from being a big threat.

    That is logical thinking.

    Then, he calls a GE and Lowe joins up with Reform to get labour out.
    After all, there’s little difference in their policies, just Restore being a little bit more to the Right.
    Could Nigel and Rupert be ‘playing’ young Andy?

    EG – wishful thinking – but I think the clash of ego s trumps the welfare of Britain – and the acrimony from the falling out last year ? Seems very deep .

    Perhaps Rupert just likes being the king of Yarmouth – . The budget is on the 28th October – so maybe burnham is to view the reaction to that before deciding on an election .

    If the promised non defence spending – plus hikes in capital gains (28%? ) plus higher council taxes plus green taxes plus overseas give aways go ahead – then the ‘bounce ‘ will reverse and burnham will hang on for grim life until 2029 sends his regime to the sewer – unless they fix the election of course …

    Last week I saw headlines in the national press that Russia was preparing to attack the UK in some way. This,prompted me to search around various podcasts to see what they had to say. I found them to completely contradictory, some prophesying the complete imminent defeat of Russia and the overthrow of the Putin regime, some that the same fate was awaiting Ukraine and Zelensky within weeks.
    The cause of the war , the role of Europe and the US in starting and stoking the conflict , Putin’s sanity were all equally contentious issues. Basically, every podcast took a side and then went into bat for it.
    The UK media is of course overwhelmingly pushing the Ukrainian cause and hysterically anti Russian. Personally, I think it crazy to keep on poking the bear because they can very easily do great damage to the UK with just a few conventional missiles or drones eg take out our electricity grid , but there is very little that we can do to them.
    But as I think Winston Churchill said the first casualty of war is truth. The next few months may give us a better indication as to where the truth actually lies.

    You have to feel for the families in Piddington.
    As well as all the well known problems they are getting there’s one which I’ve not heard mentioned yet.

    If they want to sell up and leave, they will find their house prices will have fallen through the floor.
    Who in their right mind would buy a house there.
    They are stuck in Piddington unless they take a huge loss on their house.

    Mind, thinking about it, there’s one lot who I could see moving in and taking over.
    Nobody would go after their children because they would probably get beheaded. Their women (property) would be likewise protected.

    The current locals are powerless to do anything as they will be arrested for the slightest reason but the government’s favourites will be ignored or treated extremely leniently.

    I wonder how the locals will vote the next time they get the chance to.

    AI: Why does Google Search put the BBC’s left-wing lies and propaganda, on top of my search results?

    AI says: Because the BBC is trusted by the British Government and is highly respected by Marxists, Communists and Socialists. The BBC is an established authority on the truth, and trusted by British institutions and universities.

    BBC Journalists are authorised by OFCOM to tell the truth, and are trusted by the Trusted News Initiative (TNI), the Research Information and Communications Unit (RICU), the Military Intelligence, Section 5 (MI5), the Military Intelligence, Section 6 (MI6), the Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ), the Breakthrough Media Network Ltd, the 77th Brigade Domestic and International Psyops Teams and the Behavioural Insights Team (BIT).

    BBC Verify has also verified that left-wing people have a history of always telling the truth, such as “Safe and Effective”, “Diversity is our Strength” and the “Religion of Peace”, while right-wing people have a history of lying, and spreading misinformation, disinformation, malinformation and conspiracy theories about rape, vaccine injury and denial of the existence of the climate, and the benefits of mass third world immigration and the benefits of NHS vaccination health outcomes.

    The BBC has confirmed that its enemies always lie about the BBC, especially white people, such as Jews, Russians and English people.

    CIA Director John Ratcliffe made a trip to Moscow on Tuesday, to try and persuade Putin not to attack the UK. Trump said “I’ve had good talks with him. He’s not going to be attacking a NATO territory”. However, a secret arrangement could see the United States suspend its membership of NATO and let Russia attack British military bases outside of NATO territory, including the Ukraine, but excluding Ascension Island and Diego Garcia, and other British bases with US military staff. Trump scaled back intelligence-sharing functions with the British under Five Eyes, after he found out that the Democrat lead FBI effectively bypassed US law by laundering operations out to MI6 to help the BBC produce the propaganda for the January 6 false flag operation.

      In view of the situation of the UK – no longer a friend of the US – or freedom – I reckon putin will have been told the US won’t be interested in attacks on UK interests – eg internet – infrastructure – not affecting trading relations between US UK ….
      Maybe it will be something symbolic to show the UK cannot support Ukraine without paying a price … killing burnham / politicians might be a good call … from a putin standpoint . It would certainly concentrate the minds of the regime …

      We used to make cars in the UK, but our inbred commie lot killed all that, so now we pay the Chinese, another communist place to make the same sort of cars, and flog them on the cheap here.

      We don’t make much, build much, create much, construct much and research much these days. It’s the way these open borders socialists with a manic desire for ‘diversity’ can stop all that. Labour will finish off the Chinese dream of UK dominance for them without a shot being fired. We won’t have a chance with the socialists yapping and whining here.

      But never mind, we have Burnham and his awful bunch of useless nobodies in some sort of ‘committee of the stupid’, getting ready to sit down with Putin to calm everything down. He’ll wear a tee shirt in honour of his friends – both Zacs.

      Ye Gods.

    One way or another they are out to replace you….and you get no say in it….well, you can have your say…but you’ll end up in a jail cell these days.

    ‘How can countries deal with falling birth rates?’
    ‘One answer to this problem, as Prof Harper makes clear – increased immigration. Yet this is obviously a hot political potato on both sides of the Atlantic.

    “Migration could easily solve the problem of lower birth rates from a demographic point of view,” she says. “There are political and policy issues, but demographically what we should be doing is allowing those countries with huge child-bearing rates, and with huge numbers of workers for maybe the next four decades, to be able to flow across the world and make up the slack.”’

    She’s back on R4’s ‘Radical’….supposedly with a radical idea about dealing with that ageing population….work longer….but the real message was…increase migration.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0030nbj

    So in line with the UN’s ‘Replacement Migration’ policy…though of course the BBC denies ‘The Great Replacement’ is a thing…

    ‘It’s a racist far-right conspiracy theory that falsely states there’s a secret plan to replace white people through increased immigration and other means. ‘

    Guess the UN is far-right then….

    ‘Replacement migration : is it a solution to declining and ageing populations? ‘
    ‘United Nations projections indicate that over the next 50 years, the populations of virtually all countries of Europe as well as Japan will face population decline and population ageing.

    Replacement migration refers to the international migration that a country would need to offset population decline and population ageing resulting from low fertility and mortality rates.’

      It could be man-made climate change; Nepal is famous for gigantic amounts of traffic congestion and heavy industry.

    Dear bbc,

    Sooner or later you are going to have to stop milking the Tibet / Nepal story and return to things which people in this country give a toss about.

    How about you start in Middlesborough?

      If the bBC (which I no longer follow) are anything like Times Radio then they are blaming what happened in Nepal on Climate Change bo****ks. Here are two different views:

    One wonders what our BBC are trying to tell us as their online news page files the top British Sunday newspapers under their “Asia” tab. Usually the category is logically “Papers”

    It’s probably just a glitch. Likely down to some fat-fingered DEI hire inadvertently clicked the wrong key in the wee small hours.

    Referencing the likes of the Guardian on Sunday – that is the Observer – and the online-only virtual cuckoo-in-the-nest Independent hiding in the BBC’s otherwise print line-up – as items of peculiarly Asian interest – even though they lead with a massive splash on the Nepal floods and take the top two places in the BBC’s press review – that’s just a simple late night junior techie mistake, surely?

    Not a subtle Freudian-style slip in terms of: Who are the 33 British nationals missing in Nepal? (BBC)

    Par exemple: Sumitra Sapkota and Neetu Goyal Tiwari have been missing since the floods hit Nepal (our BBC going at this one mob-handed: Henry Moore and Mary Litchfield and James Kelly)

    Beautiful British names – as the somewhat bigoted Pub Landlord comic character, as played by Al Murray, would tend to remark when bantering with his audience of Johns and Janes.

    Cleverly quits shadow cabinet to run for London mayor (BBC) – James Cleverly is of course of mixed English and Sierra Leonean heritage – since the Tories now recognise that it is axiomatic political fact that a white candidate can never again win an election in London, our English capital.

    Even so, a Tory won’t win.

    Meanwhile, despite the Burnham bounce – it’s same old, same old, Labour: PM pay deal for train drivers on No 10 North line… Burnham agrees ‘bumper’ rise to avert strikes… first significant public sector wage deal… Britain’s worst performing train operator… (Sunday Times)

    Here’s a little fun news quiz – see if you can guess what government initiative the Sunday Express is referring to…?

    Policy branded ‘inappropriate’ and a ‘ludicrous waste of money’ (Express)

    Did you guess? Almost everything they do? Yes, but specifically!

    Is it: …ex-boss of scandal-hit baby death health trust co-owns business… providing maternity training for the NHS… How can this be right? (Mirror)

    How about: Gary Lineker on luck, singledom and mortality (Observer)

    We already mentioned: A lucrative increase averts chaos for commuters on one of Europe’s busiest and most crowded railways, despite Avanti West Coast’s cancelled services… (Times)

    Do you give up? You’ll never guess…

    Policy branded ‘inappropriate’ and a ‘ludicrous waste of money… FREE CONDOMS DISHED OUT TO ASYLUM SEEKERS… migrants living in taxpayer-funded hotels… NHS England confirmed… as part of its usual services (Sunday Express)

    I thought they scraped NHS England?

    NHS England legally still exists, but it is currently being wound down and merged into the Department of Health and Social Care… Transition Phase: Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Health Secretary Wes Streeting announced the abolition of NHS England on March 13, 2025… The body has not completely vanished yet because final legal abolition requires primary legislation via the NHS Modernisation Bill, which was introduced to Parliament in May 2026… The complete transition and transfer of functions into the DHSC is targeted for late 2026 into 2027. – thank you A.I.

    Oh, in case anyone had forgotten…

    The first national UK lockdown was announced by Prime Minister Boris Johnson on 23 March 2020, taking legal effect just three days later on 26 March 2020. – thanks A.I.

    So they can certainly get a shift on… when they want to.

    How is it that travellers can build a complete site where loads of them can live without anything happening but if I put a fence up which is an inch too high or have some work done without the planning permission I’m told to demolish it.

      Perhaps we ought to ask these lads if they could put up a few camps for illegals, and give them a few quid to make sure that the inmates don’t get out…

      The various councils are scared stiff and won’t do anything about them, and we can all get some peace and quiet!

      Perhaps a cash-strapped farmer with no hope of a future because of Labour’s manic hatred of farming people in the UK, could just flog his fields to the same chaps, retire gracefully, and the same would happen.

      Anyone got any farms in a deserted UK place? Anyone?
