If, like me, you assumed World Economic Forum meetings were full of altruistic, visionary leaders sourcing the most nutritious bugs for us to eat in our future (rented) EcoPods, you may be shocked at the Mail’s latest article, which claims that, at Davos, “pointing at the ceiling in a bar is all it takes to order sex”.
Here’s an excerpt:
Nearly 3,000 conference delegates were in town for the five-day jamboree, the first in the post-pandemic era, said to provide an £80 million boost to the local economy.
But there is another ‘economy’ in Davos (pop. just over 11,000) which also receives a considerable boost from the summit — a world that exists in parallel with the earnest discussions on the debating floor of the Congress Centre, and that is the so-called ‘oldest profession in the world’.
Prostitution is legal in Switzerland, with sex workers expected to pay taxes, register with local authorities and undergo regular health checks. And business is booming.
Earlier this week, high-class escort Salome Balthus, 36, revealed how she had been booked by a delegate. Speaking exclusively to MailOnline after leaving the plush hotel where she had been staying with her client, she said: “Davos is all about power, money and sex, and all three make good bedfellows”.
And there I was, dear reader, thinking it was all about saving our beautiful planet by owning nothing and being happy. I am literally shaking. But thankfully there is an educational aspect to all this, as Salome explains:
Salome, who has her own escort agency in Berlin, called Hetaera, added: “My clients are always of a very high standard and the fact I have a degree in philosophy and German literature guarantees that they will not only have a good time sexually but also intellectually.
I have a wonderful silver fox client, who likes me to wear a see-through blouse and talk French to him because it reminds him of a forbidden love he had as a schoolboy.”
So you see, there is really nothing seedy about it after all.
The claim about “pointing at the ceiling” is explained as follows:
One of the people who emerged from the scrum was a young American from a tech firm who had just attended a party in the penthouse above. “At the Europe”, he said, “you stand at the bar and point upstairs, whereas at the Belvedere you have to make a call.”
Making a call to Swiss Eve or Salome Balthus is normally how it works in Davos. “These agencies use many, many ways to get girls to Davos — cars, trains, and even helicopters”, he told us. “They are then put up in apartments by the escort agencies.
“Basically, they are all in place and positioned so that at the drop of a hat they can take a call, entertain a client for a couple of hours, then go straight back to the apartment and wait for the next call, then go out again.”
Let’s hope our glorious Davos leaders apply the same efficiency to planning our eco-friendly utopia.

Well put. I get the strong impression that the fake conservative Conservatives do not want to win this election.
Nadine Dorries seems to agree with you, at least in her book. Something along the lines of there is a blob and they intend to wipe out the Conservative party. It’s all going to plan then!
I think the current senior leadership are treating the office as a stepping stone to a lucrative private sector career or something global and unaccountable.
Some of the backbenchers seem genuinely conservative and I am astonished that they have hung around and not defected, the rest seem like standard lefty liberals to me who would be equally at home in most other mainstream parties.
That is why there are so many defections, they are part of the uniparty, so no surprise there.
I agree. They learnt from the John Major experience in 1994 that this would be an election better to lose.
Except they didn’t realise it might result in electoral obliteration ….. hence Sunak’s belated attempt to sound Conservative.
Excellent article.
And if want to know the truth about Ukraine / Russia et al then NEVER watch / listen to ANY MSM (lying / propaganda) outfits.
Instead get the FACTS from:-

Nice lying globalist propaganda site
Why do you think that?
Forget all the slightly desperate overthinking by strange people making money out of the slaughter.
This is not complicated.
The world’s second largest army is being held by one a quarter of its size; the relatively small army of a medium sized and not very rich young nation.
Why?
‘In war, the moral is to the physical as ten to one.’ Bonaparte
And Russian morale is desperately poor.
Why?
‘Corruption was a major factor in the army’s failure to seize and hold northern Ukraine in February and March 2022.
Over the previous five years Shoigu was given vast resources – up to 6 per cent of Russia’s GDP – to build up and reform the Russian army into a (regionally, at least) invincible fighting force.
Shoigu’s big innovation was the Battalion Tactical Group (BTG), a small and integrated force that combined motorised infantry and artillery.
The problem was that while hardware was not in short supply, soldiers were. But rather than admit failure to fulfil the Kremlin’s orders, generals solved the problem by simply reducing the strength of units. Motorised rifle battalions shrank from up to 539 personnel in 2017 to around 345 on the eve of the Ukraine invasion.
The estimated 120 BTGs (about 4 Army Corps) that attacked Ukraine all went in at far from full combat strength. And that shortfall told, especially in the wooded countryside and city suburbs of Ukraine.
Each infantry fighting vehicle needed a commander, a driver and a gunner, leaving four men to dismount and act as actual boots – and, more importantly, eyes, ears and rifles – on the ground.
Without conscripts, each platoon was left with perhaps two fighting infantrymen per vehicle.
Ukrainian forces reported attacking Russian armoured vehicles manned by their three-man crew alone.’
Spectator 01 June 2024
That hasn’t changed……
‘Russian forces have only seized approximately 752 square kilometres in 2024, however……Russian forces seized about 516 square kilometres between January 1, 2024, and April 29, 2024’
ISW
So the latest Russian offensive has achieved remarkably little, again, and at what cost?
Neither China nor the U.S. have any interest in this war ending……and so it isn’t ending……
Criminal stupidity.
Never watch MSM and we watch all of those websites except for your last one as I haven’t heard of it but will go have a looksee.
For YT I would throw in Jeff Taylor and for more Global events, ‘We Are Change’ he is Polish/American and does good work.
Probably to an unmarked grave in afraid. Too many, even on this site, are happy playing within their system. I’m able to say this, of course, because I’m also playing within their system.
Good article. I am really hoping we get some party canvassers knocking at our door – we have a lot to say to them. Sadly I think they will fight shy of door knocking because any and all of them are going to get a lot of (deserved) stick.
We’ve lived in our house for 15 years thereabouts and have never had a canvasser knock on our door which is unfortunate. The good news is our MP is standing down and good riddance!
In the last ten years I’ve only had one – disappointing. I feel my constituency is going to be quite tight this time so the incumbent ought to be fighting tooth and nail but somehow I doubt they will. I’ve contacted various candidates and parties at times on certain issues, mainly convid; I rarely get even an acknowledgment.
They only use “since Covid” as an excuse for not getting something done, but that is a false premise because “Covid” or the “pandemic” was not about saving a few old biddies. The save Granny narrative was useful to TPTB for all the health fascism that followed.
I got one for Tice….”Vote Lib/Lab/Con….Get the WEF. Though I suspect Tice is himself establishment so will not use it, and the ‘conspiracy’ slur has worked well for the deep state. As almost all would know on here, that slur started with the assassination of Kennedy.
Number 4, row locks with steroids. Is anyone seriously going to argue Muslim women get a genuine vote? Labour love postal votes for a very good reason; they can easily fiddle the vote.
If the Tories had not become Socialists they would have closed down postal votes to only those who cannot, with evidence, get to the polling station. Take away the postal vote and watch Labour’s votes disappear.
I have had more than one conversation with Pakistani taxi drivers who have admitted that their womenfolk are not allowed to vote. They have to apply for postal votes and when received their husbands take them who may or may not then hand them over to the imams troops.
I have never seen a muslim woman in a polling station. Ever.
“he was also Head of Education at Stonewall.”
But he does not even want to admit working at Stonewall but instead pretends he is a grafter who has had real jobs in the real world and who worked his ticket through Cambridge university.
It is not true – click on quote below for link to his website.
“Working outside politics“. Not true.
He is a typical political hack.
He was NUS President before working at Stonewall.
Stonewall is meant to be a charity but in reality it is a political organisation behind the front of being an educational charity.
Cambridge university frowns on students working whilst studying and applicants for undergraduate courses are expected to be able to prove their ability to fund their studies. There are also various funding schemes for students.
I would add a couple of small things. Ask the Greens for a science based proof that climate change is man made and not due to sunspots, volcanic eruptions etc. Also ask the electorates of Wales and Scotland, where the NHS is in far more trouble than in England, to remember which party runs it (answer – Labour).
Mr H has advised that people emigrate.
He has been strangely quiescent on the Tories since the GE was called. These were the Useless Tories of a few years ago.
His column was absent the weekend before the 2016 Referendum vote. Another state secret?
Mr H’s latest advice is to vote against a Labour government.
The only way to do that is to vote for a candidate who is likely to beat any Labour candidate in each constituency. This is a candidate for any other party. Even one you may thoroughly detest.
As the Tories have already lost, there is no point any Tory person voting for a Conservative candidate. They might as well transfer their vote in a way that will at least reduce the Labour majority. Does a constituency have a Labour majority but a significant Muslim population? If so, a vote for a candidate who is standing on the Gaza issue may result in Labour’s defeat.
In trying not to ‘drop the Ming vase’, Starmer might look too Tory to the younger voters. They should be encouraged to vote for another left-wing candidate.
On the other hand, a Labour super majority in the HoC might be the very worse thing for them. Unable to blame all the problems on 14 years of Tory rule for very long, their majority will turn sour when all the chronic problems remain unsolved. It took 14 years of chronic problems to result in a desire to democratically punish the Tories. It might only need four to do the same to Labour.
Except when it comes to (4) there plainly IS a Muslim Block vote in parts of the country ….. largely facilitated by postal voting.
Well said Joanna Gray
However, I don’t wish to spoil your day but have you seen the YouTube video Climate: the Movie?

If all the people who probably aren’t going to vote due to the unfair system, lack of representation or interest, voted for Reform. We could try and get some real change going politically – we have the power people, it’s in our hands.
