“Gary Lineker to be given an award for his political remarks on migrant crisis”
Really Amnesty International..? You used to be cool…
And not a peep out of them in 2020 when human rights abuses were taking place all over the globe. I don’t recall seeing any campaign from them when vaccine passports were in force in France …
I wouldn’t give that Next Tuesday so much as a bag of crisps.
“German investigators think it was Ukraine, not Russia, that sabotaged the Nord Stream pipelines”
Gosh, how surprising that someone thinks the Russians didn’t go to great lengths to destroy a major source of leverage.
Also extraordinary the long range powers which are attributed to Ukraine.
I went to the Tate Britain in London recently. Main purpose of the visit was to walk round the newly reopened wing where they have most of their Turner paintings. As it’s not that fashionable it was blissfully quiet. I did read some of the blurb they write next to the paintings and there were predictable attempts at wokeness, but even they struggled. We had a quick look at the Rosetti exhibition but it was horribly busy so we left after less than a minute. Actually hardly anyone wearing a “face covering” – the first time I’ve experienced that. Even the virtue signalling luvvies have abandoned them.

Another quality piece from Ramesh Thakur, laying out just why the WHO should absolutely not be handed the ability to dominate the world’s public health policies;
”Pandemics are rare events. The WHO listed only four in the 120 years before Covid-19: the Spanish flu 1918–19, Asian flu 1957–58, Hong Kong flu 1968–69 and swine flu 2009–10. They impose a low disease burden compared to the endemic infectious and chronic diseases. Heart diseases, cancers, strokes, lung diseases, and influenza and pneumonia are the world’s big killer diseases. Moreover, as is well known and unlike the earlier pandemics, about three-quarters of the 6.9 million Covid deaths were in people with comorbidities at or above average life expectancy. Florida and Sweden resisted the lockdown groupthink and have come out markedly better on the balance of benefits versus harms. This is why the requirement for every country to dedicate a minimum of 5 percent of its health budget to pandemic preparedness (Article 19.1c of the draft new treaty) doesn’t make much sense.
The terminological change in the IHR (the draft new treaty sticks to “pandemics”) from a pandemic to a “public health emergency of international concern” would make it easier for the WHO to assume extraordinary powers for health crises short of pandemics. The new regulatory framework would chip away at the right of sovereign states to chart their own independent paths, just like lockdowns shifted responsibility and agency from individuals to the public health clerisy.”

“San Francisco crime surge drives tech chief exodus to London”
Oh dear!
Out of the frying pan straight into the fire!
All these reports today just make me wish we had a DeSantis ,Le Pen or Meloni any leader who will just stop all this madness!
Careful what you wish for! DeSantis is not the saviour he’s painted to be. A bill which he passed stopping any imposition of measures against covid which was lauded was a watered down version of a publicly written bill that prevented any imposition of measures against any health or thought up issue. Meaning that lockdowns etc can be implemented for the next ‘pandemic…. He’s like any good magician, smoke & mirrors & sleight of hand.
This information is directly from a Floridian who has gone over the test of the bills with a fine toothcomb.
I agree..I know they don’t all do everything right..none of them are perfect..but who is?….but each of them is more in line with SOME things that I think are right….than any other ‘Western’ leaders (except the sainted Mr Orban, who I admire)
Why can’t we have a Sky Australia here? This is a short clip, very good..and look at Meloni’s face when Trudeau tries to ‘mansplain’ the democracy of LGTBQ etc to her….LOL!

The report from the NatCon conference by Henry George suggests two problems need to be resolved before any unity can be achieved as a basis for practical policy development.
First, the received views about the Thatcher administration. Some commentators seem to believe that government policy at that time promoted financial services at the expense of (say) manufacturing. What really happened was long standing, damaging regulations and archaic business practices were swept away. The City went through changes in a few years that made the newspaper printing reforms look pedestrian. Oh, how the journalists hated that necessary change.
Second, there seems to be a belief around that we have had free trade and unregulated markets as well as light business regulations. None of this is true. Shortcomings are not because of too little government direction but too much and misdirected policy at that.
m there is no point trying to build a movement if the fundamentals are disputed. Surely the disputes between RINOs, TEA party and Trump are evidence for that.
https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/natural-england-blamed-for-blocking-new-homes-ztfl3b9qv
That headline is a blatant lie. House / home buildings has soared in the last five years and whatever figures are being put out are clearly fictional. Every town I visit has rampant house building going on.
Yet more lies to suit a preferred narrative.
I must admit I am torn on housebuilding. On the one hand I live in the Green Belt and am happy for it to stay green. On the other, getting on the housing ladder in SE England for the average young person is impossible without help from parents/grandparents – and as a country we should be able to provide young people with decent affordable homes to raise kids in. And on the other hand, if our population wasn’t increasing through immigration of various kinds perhaps we would not need to build so many homes.

King Chuckles – this is your opportunity to lead your nation.
At Last ! Some pay back !! GB News reports – Khan has had a heart Attack !!
Oh wonderful.
Minor heart attack at COP26 in Glasgow, 2021. If he’s trying for a sympathy vote, there’s none forthcoming from me. He can shuffle off.
10th November 2021 after he had had COVID ‘vaccine’ on 29th October 2021. He also had a flu vaccine at the same time. Was it an adverse reaction to the COVID injection? No mainstream journalist seems to have noticed the temporal association. He also appears to have had two COVID injections since his suspected heart attack.
I think he was treated at this place: –
