Good news, because I was concerned about this guy. Salman Momika has left Sweden for Norway. I do hope he stops burning Korans though. I’m all for freedom of expression but he made his point 7 Korans ago and it’s become a bit obsessive now. Surely he’s got more important things he wants to do with his life in a democratic, Sharia-free country than look over his shoulder every time he leaves the house;
”Today I left Sweden and am now in Norway under the protection of the Norwegian authorities.
I applied for asylum and international protection in Norway because Sweden does not accept asylum for philosophers and thinkers, but only accepts asylum for terrorists. My love and respect for the Swedish people will remain the same, but the persecution I was subjected to by the Swedish authorities does not represent the Swedes.
I will continue my struggle against Islamic ideology
Since I started the struggle against Islam, I have paid and continue to pay the price, and I am ready for that, whatever the cost.”

Thanks for that Mogs. I was worried for this man. I hope Norway works out for him.
You know I was saying before about someone being attacked and people just standing around with their phones, doing nothing, passively observing while somebody gets killed before their eyes? One such example from yesterday on a train. Note the guy just sat there like it’s his onboard entertainment, and who’s doing the filming? The attacker is still on the loose;

This is a good one, very funny. Apparently, us horrible humans have managed to change the rate of rotation of the planet with our disregard for trace levels of atmospheric CO2. All a distraction of course from the real culprits for this cosmological aberration; we all know damn well that it’s the far right wot done it!!!

‘The United Nations Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine (HRMMU) report details activities between December 1, 2023 and February 29 2024, and includes new findings about Russia’s abuse of Ukrainian POWs during this timeframe, based on interviews with 60 recently released male POWs.
Nearly all of the POWs that HRMMU interviewed detailed how they were tortured by Russian forces with beatings and electric shocks and threatened with execution, and over half of the interviewees experienced sexual violence.
HRMMU also reported that it has evidence of Russian forces executing at least 32 POWs in 12 different incidents during the reporting period and independently verified three of the executions.
ISW observed open-source evidence of several POW executions during this reporting period:
the execution of three Ukrainian POWs near Robotyne, Zaporizhia Oblast on December 27, 2023;
the execution of one Ukrainian POW near Klishchiivka, Donetsk Oblast on February 9, 2024;
the executions of three Ukrainian POWs near Robotyne,
the execution of six Ukrainian POWs near Avdiivka, Donetsk Oblast, and
the executions of two Ukrainian POWs near Vesele, Donetsk Oblast on or around February 18, 2024; and
the execution of nine Ukrainian POWs near Ivanivske, Donetsk Oblast, on February 25.
The summary execution and mistreatment of POWs is a violation of Article 3 of the Geneva Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War.
The HRMMU report also details the forced Russification of Ukrainian populations in occupied areas, including the imposition of Russian political, legal, and administrative systems onto occupied Ukraine in violation of Russia’s international legal obligations as an occupying power….’

‘A documentary for BBC Radio 4 gave me the chance to chart this volte-face as the Tusk government takes an “iron broom” to sweep away a legacy of ultra-conservative rule.
……this is a recalibration “not a retaliation”
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2024/mar/28/rightwing-populists-poland-donald-tusk
‘The last few weeks in Polish politics have been dramatic, angry and sometimes bizarre. Two former ministers of the previously ruling Law and Justice (PiS) government, convicted of the falsification of documents while in public office, take refuge in the palace of the president, their party comrade Andrzej Duda. While Duda is away at another meeting, the police arrest them in the palace and carry them off to prison.
The president says they are “political prisoners”, talks of “rule of law terror”, and even makes a comparison with Bereza Kartuska, a notorious concentration camp in 1930s Poland. PiS launches a protest demo in the snow, deploying the iconography of the Solidarity movement that led Poland to freedom in the 1980s. PiS leader Jarosław Kaczyński says the arrested politicians are heroes who should be awarded the country’s highest honours. Poland’s genuinely tragic and inspiring past is recycled as grotesque parody.’

‘The supposedly “public service” television station, TVP, which for eight years blasted out the most vile, mendacious, abusive propaganda for the ruling party, is taken over by the new government. Former staff are shut out, the station is declared bankrupt as a commercial enterprise but swiftly resumes broadcasting. Its new-style news programmes are incomparably more impartial……’
Contributors, commentators here, all of us, we also should look in the mirror……
‘But as my producer and I travelled from the buzzy streets of Warsaw, via the Law and Justice stronghold of Wadowice – where a lady coming out of the basilica responded tartly to the question about Tusk’s government by saying it was “time he came back to God” – to Krakow, to speak to one woman caught up in the implementation of draconian abortion laws, it felt like veering giddily from one world to another.
People claimed that they understood the destiny of their country while turning a deaf ear to others’ views.’

The little-known bacteria behind the rising rates of cancer in under 40s”
Not ultra processed foods, but certainly alcohol and oral sex are as old as time itself. Is this yet another ‘grasping at straws for causes of rising cancer cases’? (I can’t read the article unfortunately).

Well, there’s so much more real choice than reform isn’t there??
Cracking interview (13m) with Dr Gilbert Doctorow on Russian views of the Crocus Hall attack.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RMFLQVym7M
Judge Napolitano has been interviewing his ‘experts’ since Friday on this issue. My favourite is always Scott Ritter, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCKOmn_ARYI. The initial 3-minute discussion on how Napolitano advised Trump to pardon Assange, which was ignored, is also interesting.
A good interview which makes it perfectly clear that there is no evidence of any Western or Ukrainian involvement in the Crocus Hall attacks whatsoever.
We also know that Russia lied about the terrorists heading for Ukraine. Lukashenko made it clear that they were heading for Belarus.
‘“We placed our units on high alert to prepare for a combat situation,”
“As a result they were unable to enter Belarus by any means. Recognizing this, they diverted their course and headed toward the Ukrainian-Russian border.”
Why the silly fibs, then?
‘Firstly, Russia can no longer get out of the propaganda framework that it itself created and with which it justifies the war against Ukraine. They are using this terrorist attack to divert attention from their own terrorist actions.
Secondly…….an attempt to distract from the questions that inevitably arise even among Russians loyal to Putin: why was the terrorist attack not prevented, why were there no effective actions by the security forces, why did they not carry out undercover work? After all, the Russian authorities always talk about how they have everything under control.
And finally, this is simply Putin’s personal, fierce hatred of Ukraine. Because Ukraine constantly humiliates his concept of “I am big, I am global,” “I am a historical character.” This personal hatred, built on completely distorted historical premises and the idea of one’s own superior value, influences Putin’s political reactions.
But I like it. Putin’s version discredits itself. The terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall itself, which is certainly related to global terrorism, aroused absolutely understandable sympathy even among those countries that take a clear pro-Ukrainian position.
But this persistent attempt to link the non-existent “Ukrainian trace” to this terrorist attack brought everyone back to the understanding that Russia’s political leadership today is inadequate.’

By the way, Gilbert Doctorow, the ‘expert’ in the interview, comes with his own past modest health warning; well done, him:
‘Having just come back a week ago from Moscow, where my stay was picked up by a Kremlin-funded institution, I now can give a fairly precise answer to MEP Brok’s impertinent and malicious question: for three years of occasional guest appearances as interviewee and panelist on the Cross Talk program of Russia Today, I have been paid 3 nights in a 5 star hotel in downtown Moscow, lavish buffet breakfasts, a tour of the Kremlin and a seat at the banquet dinner celebration of Russia Today‘s 10 years on air where Vladimir Putin was the keynote speaker.
For this token of respect by my hosts at RT, I am duly grateful.’
The poison blood scandal erupted eons ago, the building cladding fault has been known for about ten years, e voted to leave the EU in 2016 and the PostOffice scandal erupted in 2010 with a further kicker just a few weeks ago.
Our military resources have been exposed as inadequate and energy security has never been so weak. Unfriendly powers attack our internet and Parliament is broken.
On which of these can anyone point to any urgent action by this Conservative government and which if them are addressed by the new elites as issues worthy of attention.
The anser – none of them. They are not interested in resolving any of the scandals and weakbnesses of the country but onluy in promoting their fantasies in the hope of retaining office, even when that prospect has long since been lost.
