Makes you and these people look bloodthirsty and sick. It’s not funny at all.

Satire doesn’t have to be humorous to achieve its purpose … which is to mock and ridicule.

Meanwhile, in Ukraine, Russian blogger and combatant, Romanov, shares a conversation about partisan activities in the Luhansk Oblast, Kreminna district.

Apparently everything that Russians touch is being poisoned: food, alcohol, vapes. Energy drinks are poisoned with sulphur .

Romanov suggests people caught doing this should be killed.

But, somehow, all eastern Ukrainians want to be part of Russia…..or not really

“‘Suellaism’ is here to stay”

Suellaism? You just mean actual Conservatism don’t you? You know, that thing everyone voted for, providing a huge mandate? That thing everyone’s trying to ignore and treat as some sort of dirty affliction?

Whatever you want to call it, yes, it’s here to stay I’m afraid. What do we want? To protect children from paedophiles and the sick mind games of the left. Protect society from the mental illness that masquerades as ‘trans’. Dismantle Big State and the overreach of Big Business. We want the plague of woke dogma treated as the dangerous sickness it is. We want the captured, corrupt, evil system razed to the ground and the animals complicit in the last four years brought to justice. We want our country back. And you can call that what you damn well want.

I totally agree with the sentiment.

But you’ll be constantly disappointed, angry and divided if you think it has ever been “our country”. I wish I were wrong.

“Why Putin doesn’t want to negotiate” – The West is currently as divided as Putin could possibly wish, says Sasha Lensky in the Spectator’.

Yet another suffering under the misapprehension that negotiations could have any point to them.

Both protagonists are Soviets in background, view agreements simply through the prism of expediency.

Forget negotiations as a tool outside expediency, as does Putin.

His goal is a return to Russian hegemony in Eastern Europe by whatever methods that may be expedient.

You’ll be interested in this presentation by Julian Gillespie LLB who presented to MD4CE yesterday evening on legal action & the research he has done to present to the Australian Courts. He’s collated evidence relating to politicians admitting that the covid products are GMO & that legislation relating to GMOs was ignored; that a peer reviewed & published paper written in early 2020, with the Wuhan Institute’s bat woman as one of the authors, demonstrating that a nasal spray successfully prevented infections from developing into serious conditions was heavily suppressed; has had a peer reviewed paper published about the issues which the covid products cause with human DNA.
You can watch his presentation at: https://rumble.com/user/cbkovess

Links to all of the evidence he presents, articles relating to the court case & videos of the politicians damning themselves with verbal evidence can be viewed on his substack: https://julesonthebeach.substack.com/

This is an issue which is being ignored by the media, including the sceptical media, & deserves & demands a wide audience. The evidence is even worse & more damning than we feared. The corruption, the machinations to ensure that this GMO DNA altering product was injected into mankind is despicable.

Please disseminate widely.

And to his peer reviewed published paper
https://ijvtpr.com/index.php/IJVTPR/article/view/83

Work is ongoing to get this information into the hands of influential politicians to try to blow the whole thing open to the public.

Interesting – if somewhat stilted – historical take by Roger Boyd on his substack.

The rhetoric used by the Israeli authorities and many of their supporters abroad parallels that used again and again by colonial forces attempting to construct rhetorical and ideological support for their crimes against humanity, as with the British and the Mau Mau in the colonized and occupied Kenya of the 1950s. The term Mau Mau was a British invention as the colonial authorities were actually fighting with the freedom fighters of the Kenya Land and Freedom Army (KLFA – the equivalent of Hamas) which was the military wing of the Kikuyu, Meru and Embu populations. The colonial authorities referred to their opponents as “perverted tribalists”, an uncivilized group that wanted to return to the uncivilized dark period before they had enjoyed British civilizing influences.; mirroring the Israeli attempts to dehumanize the population that they are subjugating….

LIHOP[letting it happen on purpose], TAR [triggering a reaction] and FSP [full spectrum propaganda] are as old as empire, and still proving their worth to bamboozle populations into accepting what the elites were already planning to do. And each time after the event, perhaps years later, the Imperial mainstream media and some politicians and NGOs complain how they were “bamboozled” and “mislead” into reporting blatant lies. Amazing how they never seem to learn …

Not sure if it’s me reading too much into this but it does seem a bit weird that the National Trust would omit Christian holidays from its 2024 calendar but keep festivals from other faiths. Someone does say in the comments that globalist Charles is the president though so there is that. It wouldn’t happen if the Queen were alive, presumably. But if the UK is no longer a Christian country what is it? Would you say it’s majority non-religious nowadays? It’d be interesting to see any data available on the breakdown of religions in the UK actually, and how that’s changed over time;

”The National Trust has come under widespread criticism after excluding Christmas and Easter from their 2024 calendar.
Members of the trust have complained after discovering their annual charity calendar failed to mark the Christian holidays, but did include Hinduism’s Diwali, and Islam’s Eid and Ramadan.
The conservation charity have been accused of being “too woke” after their “inclusivity and wellbeing” calendar failed to include any Christian holidays.

Speaking to GB News about the exclusion by the National Trust, Director of Affinity at Gospel Churches Graham Nicholls said the decision “wasn’t right”.
Nicholls agreed with host Eamonn Holmes that the calendar is “wrong” to not include Christian celebrations.”

In the 2021 census, there were apparently less than 50% (46.2%) of the population claiming to be Christian down from almost 60% in 2011. That’s quite a drop, Mogs. The other largest growing sector is the one of ‘No religion’ growing from about 25% in 2011 to 37% in 2021. I can imagine that a good proportion of those would have been identified as Christians in the past. In effect, the Christian religion is dying in this country. Church services are poorly attended and mainly elderly people. For some reason, the Christian message is being ignored and lost. In another ten years, it will probably have dropped further. I put this at the door of the useless woke Welby and his ilk.

Interestingly, the most Christian area of the UK is the Ribble Valley in Lancs at 66% and the most Muslim area is neighbouring Bradford at 35%.

On a different but related point, NONE of the anti-woke ‘Restore Trust’ pressure group candidates (including Jonathan Sumption) were elected to the board at the recent election. One suspects the rubber-stamping ‘Quick-vote’ format did for them, as they feared. Disgraceful…. as with everything else these days.

Judgment day for the Israel hating BBC-led MSM as the IDF captures the Shifa Hospital.
Images will follow to expose the BBCs relentless 15 year campaign to whitewash Hamas. Don’t worry though, al Beeb will find a way to misrepresent God’s chosen.
