Gargling with salt water! NOW they tell us!
Don’t forget the Xlear nasal spray too. I have been using it just about every day since I discovered it in late 2020.
True. Keeping the airways clear of pathogens with traditional remedies like salt gargles help stop the development of bacterial pneumonia – the real threat of respiratory “infections”. Also some suggest fasting, especially restricting sugar intake. Recent discussion about this on JJ Couey’s Gigaohmbiological with Joseph Lee is quite hard to follow but very interesting on this topic (and others) if you persevere:

And last. What kind of conservative are you? Are you a Candace Owen Tucker Carlson kind of conservative or a Ben Shapiro (or indeed a Douglas Murray) conservative?

Dore was spot on there. Here’s a biting critique in The Cradle expanding on the canal/US regional hegemony angle (and for the downtickers it’s highly critical of the ME Arab world, I know you like that sort of thing):
https://new.thecradle.co/articles/why-the-us-needs-this-war-in-gaza
Along with Iran – which happens to have its own strategic partnership with both Russia and China – Riyadh and Abu Dhabi are supposed to reinforce the energy clout of the BRICS sphere and be key players, further on down the road, in the de-dollarization drive whose ultimate aim is to bypass the petrodollar.
Yet, at the same time, Riyadh and Abu Dhabi also stand to benefit immensely from the not-so-secret 1963 plan to build the Ben Gurion canal, from the Gulf of Aqaba to the Eastern Mediterranean, arriving – what a coincidence – very close to now devastated northern Gaza.
The canal would allow Israel to become a key energy transit hub, dislodging Egypt’s Suez Canal, and that happens to dovetail nicely with Israel’s role as the de facto key node in the latest chapter of the War of Economic Corridors: the US-concocted India-MidEast Corridor (IMEC).
This Israeli chap is back with more truth bombs. Does anyone remember these huge, constant protests condemning Assad? Highlighting the plight of the Syrian civilians, or any other victims of various conflicts around the world? No, me neither. It’s faux concern for Palestine by people that hate Jews ( <3mins );

Speaking of Jew hate…. These ‘Stop Antisemitism Now’ people had to go and buy a truck for their billboards showing the hostages being held in Gaza, because no firms would hire them one. Here they are getting stopped again, this time by terrorist-loving mentalists, police standing by enabling it all. Palestinian kids – great, Israeli kids held for 5 weeks by terrorists – couldn’t give a f*ck.

I wonder if Tim Schwab is related to Klaus Schwab? I only ask as Tim has brought out a new book about Bill Gates- The Bill Gates Problem: Reckoning with the Myth of the Good Billionaire.
On the BBC news website:
The doublethink is amazing: ‘Hmm, we’re going to have to pay double to get more wind power. That’ll help lower the price!‘
It does look weird, but in reality it’s even more complex than that! What they are probably proposing is a hike in the Contracts for Difference (CfD – https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/contracts-for-difference ) minimum unit value , but every half hour the balancing price varies. Look at the price graph on https://grid.iamkate.com/ In the CfD deal, sometimes they get paid for nothing, if there is excessive output that can’t be used.
At the moment, there’s not much wind, and we’re around a morning peak price as shown below.
Thanks for highlighting the https://grid.iamkate.com/ site. Yes, I’m aware that what Aunty Beeb is talking about is the CfD. I’m also very aware that wind power must pretty much be matched with a similar capacity of standby generation or storage for use when the wind doesn’t blow – and that is a part of the cost of wind power which is not in the CfD price.
One thing on the chart struck me as strange. Biomass is not a renewable? Since when?

Piece on the attack on Al-Shifa hospital and the history behind it, plus link to the original report in The Tablet in 2014 (for the downtickers, the latter is critical of Hamas):
https://consortiumnews.com/2023/11/15/israeli-deceit-the-battle-of-shifa-hospital/
‘ …“many” senior Hamas officials were “believed” to be hiding in the “basements” of Shifa hospital, and that the Israelis knew all about those underground levels of the hospital, because they had originally been been built by the Egyptians before 1967 and extensively refurbished by the Israelis themselves in the mid-1980s.’

Any of these foreignrs caught desecrating ANY war memorials anywhere in this country MUST be exported to Israel / Gaza.
Immediately.
I’d say send them all to Palestine if they’re that obsessed with the place. I haven’t seen any flags of Israel draped across war monuments/statues yet, or even any of those people behaving disrespectfully.
Another example of Clown World ‘policing’ here and how the clowns are blatantly capitulating to the tea towel terrorists. This guy was just on his way to a gig and called out to the protesting chavs that they’re terrorist supporters. Now he’s the one committing an offence apparently. Pathetic;

This is what Billboard Chris posted in response to a Met police tweet, referring to his own personal experience of being warned by them about triggering aggressive pro-Hamas nutjobs just by standing there wearing a sandwich board. Complete double-standards. They are a disgrace;
”What a bunch of fools you are.
You show up at women’s homes when they misgender someone. You tell me I’m breaching the peace for standing peacefully while some pro-Palestinian woman screams and pokes her flagstick in my face.
But now you suddenly become powerless when people who hate your country climb on war memorials?”
Meanwhile in Canada….
A restaurant owner who lost his business because he refused to impose medical apartheid has been vindicated for his integrity & had a court judgement made which says that welcoming all folk to his restaurants & not asking them for private medical information regarding jab status was not a crime.
The lack of reporting of these important court cases by MSM is significant as they do not want the public to know just how unlawful the covid lockdown & guidelines were, how seriously abused the population were & how the state basically trampled roughshod over basic rights enshrined in international as well as domestic human rights legislation.

Excellent substack by Sasha Latypova about who knew about the toxicity of the covid injections prior to them being rolled out.

Brilliant … well worth reading.
I’m posting this link again about lawful tax rebellion which explains why funding acts of war is unlawful & again highlights just how much & for how long we have been lied to about acts of war & military intervention. Makes one think about numerous military actions undertaken by UK armed forces.
Copied from the site is this:
“But surely waging war and paying military forces to fight an enemy is lawful?
No, it isn’t. War was outlawed in 1928 when we signed and ratified the General Treaty for the Renunciation of War, which is often referred to as the Kellogg Briand Pact. So it is never legal, lawful or legitimate to wage war, or to fund war. The only occasion in international law when the use of armed force is lawful is when a State is under attack by the armed forces of another State and needs to defend itself and repel its attackers. So anyone who takes part in a war of aggression on the side of the aggressor, including those who provide the means, money or materials for the commission of the crime, commits the world’s worst crimes and is liable for arrest and prosecution for complicity in murder, war crimes, crimes against humanity, or genocide.”

Another important court case happening yesterday & today is about a UK national being denied access to his assets for expressing a political opinion on youtube & social media about what was happening on the ground in the Donbass as an independent journalist.
At the time the sanctions were imposed no charges had been brought & no court case was heard nor was a judgement made. The sanctions were a political intervention.
The implications of this on every single one of us are huge.
Why isn’t the DS & the FSU all over this as it surely ticks every single one of the boxes they purport to stand up for??
https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/swift-british-high-court-parliament-lawyers-b1120642.html
Wonder what he said. Maybe it was beyond the pale as he was once part of the blob.
He reported what the locals in the Donbass region said to him without editing their words, posted video footage of what the reality on the ground for the civilians, at the request of POWs conducted interviews with them, one of whom was the British mercenary Aiden something or other & it was this that was used by the MSM & government to say that he had crossed a line.
The interview was conducted at the request of the interviewee.
A bit of back history is that in 2014 he was in the Donbass when the Maidan coup took place & reported what he observed, for which he was kicked out of the Ukraine & banned from ever returning. So yes, he has history with the regime there.
Irrespective of one’s views on the rights or wrongs of a journalist conducting his business, due judicial process was not followed. If the government get away with sanctioning someone for expressing an opinion, reporting what they have observed & those opinions or observations are not approved of by the government, then any one of us here BTL would also be in line to be sanctioned.
