The coming food crisis. This is serious.
And another one…
https://youtu.be/-gWZCuliJcw?si=DnruQzVFTa1OOg7M
This country is now in the top three of importers.
BTW – we no longer produce our own nitrate fertiliser. It now costs £1,000 per ton.
Food prices are going to go through the roof.
It certainly is serious, it’s by no means an accident, that it’s the identical agricultural policies to those used to exterminate 67.5 million European gentiles in post Bolshevik Russia….
And what most don’t fully understand is that it’s being orchestrated by exactly the same people’s..
Yes. Exactly. I have been warning of the depopulation agenda for at least a couple of years here on DS.
Good report on the reduction in UK food production here: https://expose-news.com/2024/08/01/uk-governments-starvation-policy/.
The UK was running at 60% self-sufficiency home production figure for most of the past two to three decades. It dropped to around 45% five years ago and this year (2024) that figure has fallen to just 32%.
The implications of this are serious indeed. A leading world nation-state relying on close to a 70% import position to feed a population of some sixty million is a massive no, no.
Add to this some six decades of government-backed agribusiness land management policies based on pharmaceutical inputs replacing soil nourishing crop rotations, farm yard manures and diverse mixed cropping regimes – and a huge crisis looms just around the corner.
The foods that appear in the nation’s supermarkets and hypermarkets all come from soil-deficient practices, whether home-produced or imported. Many also come from hydroponic systems that drip soluble nutrients into vast water containers in which the plants are grown. No soil is involved at all.
But it’s not just poor-quality vitamin-deficient foods that are degrading the health and welfare of consumers. Due to various purposefully inflated international conflicts and politically motivated power play using the fake green “zero carbon” agenda to divert resources away from agricultural production, major supermarket chains such as Tesco now hold 60% less reserve food in their systems than they did five years ago.
This translates into no more than a week or two of available food, should a crisis cause supplies to dry up.
And so on …
Farmers are now being paid to turn good agricultural land into wildflower meadows.
Well, why wouldn’t you when you can make more per acreage with no need for fertiliser, pesticides, fungicides, labour, or kit apart from to sow at the start and plough in at the end? No storage barns.
It’s a no-brainer as a business model.
Like they subsidised for hedges to be torn out and then subsidised for them to be replanted.

Any thoughts Kneel?
He will have don’t worry !
hux, you touched on this last night. I think this is a very reasonable working theory, and how long have we all been posting on here about how it’s always ”fighting age” men being brought over? One could also say ”working age”, to be fair, as no doubt a percentage are being used for cheap labour, but obviously not the illegals. Where’s the videos showing women and children coming on the boats? How many of these Muslims are natives, such as second or third generation migrants, and how many are newcomers?
Here’s a handy collection of video clips from Twitter;
”Did Western Governments import Muslims to our countries to act as muscle against us when the government started to show its communist hand?”

What’s really going on?
The genuine peaceniks:
‘Harmless, miniscule acts give rise to disproportionate official reaction; the entire clanging police machinery cranks up full force when police officers see a girl with a green ribbon in her hair, or a girl standing on the central town square with a red heart on a blue and yellow poster representing the Ukrainian flag.
And all around these activists is a frozen desert, populated by people who understand everything, who are guilty of nothing but who will remain forever silent. The language used to tell these stories is the language of free people, who doubt, reflect, and remain conscious of their weakness but invulnerable in the constant presence of their own conscience’
Ekaterina Schulmann, political scientist (in April 2022 was designated “a foreign agent” by the Russian authorities)
What happened to the author, Alsu Kurmasheva, a 47-year-old mother of two and a journalist who put the book, ‘Saying No to War’ together?
Kurmasheva was first charged with failing to register as a “foreign agent” under a punitive Russian law that targets journalists, civil society activists, and others.
“I am responsible for my family. For my young children, for my elderly mother.”
It was her mother’s ailing health that had prompted Kurmasheva’s decision to return to Russia in May 2023.
On July 19, the Supreme Court of Tatarstan found Kurmasheva guilty of disseminating “military fakes” and sentenced her to six and a half years in prison. The trial was limited to two court sessions and was held behind closed doors.
As the weeks turned into months, and as the outside temperatures dropped below freezing, Kurmasheva wrote about the harsh realities of prison life: the overcrowded cells, where new inmates could arrive in the middle of the night; the constant battle against the bitter cold.
Kurmasheva, a 47-year-old mother of two and a journalist for RFE/RL, spent 288 days in Russian detention before her release on August 1, as part of one of the largest prisoner swaps involving the United States and Russia since the end of the Cold War.
An interesting article which concludes with:
Port Talbot, Grangemouth, Aberdeen all spring to mind. Labour (and the Conservatives) eviscerating industry and investment.

Today’s Duffer of the Day:
The National Trust
The new garden at the National Trust’s Beningbrough Hall near York features more than 4,000 perennials, grasses, trees and shrubs from the Mediterranean and similar climate zones around the world from South Africa to South Korea, Chile, China and Australia.
The plants in the garden have been selected…..to be able to cope better with hotter, drier summers
“With more intense weather events, including drought and floods, predicted, our gardens need to change to better tolerate extremes.”
We need to start changing the way we garden
Or not really?
Head Gardener Sam Shipman said: “Since starting the build in 2023, it has rained almost every day, holding up our progress.
“The irony of building a Mediterranean garden in one of the wettest autumns, winters and then springs on record has not been lost on any of us.”
National Trust: Duffer
The far-left DT working very hard to throw plenty of the usual insults at white working class protesters, while working very hard to paint Muslims as the oppressed. The following two paragraphs are key:
Aided and abetted by this countries government and media, Muslim hordes are amassing in greater numbers than the indigenous who are protesting against the Muslim hordes. Our media and government then shift into overdrive to throw our own people under the bus whilst excusing, and indirectly supporting, masses of violent Muslims. Make no mistake about it, this is coordinated treason by the entire establishment.
Found this, very interesting if true:
https://petition.parliament.uk/archived/petitions/236798
Remember they used to put heads on spikes at City Gates to keep the populace quiet ! Not much has changed I’m afraid !
Spot on. Yesterday Radio Genoa had a video showing a huge Muslim gang armed with machetes, and no doubt other weapons easier to conceal, on the way to confront unarmed British Patriots. It has disappeared today.
Wait! I just found another video here:

Another on a different site said that Rotherham locals attacked the immigrant hotel partly because gangs of up to 30 immigrants from that hotel had been prowling the streets ever since they moved in, sexually harassing, intimidating, shouting and spitting at local women and children. The cowardly Rwandan stabbing of 11 unarmed children and 2 adults in trying to protect them in Southport was the final straw for Rotherham. No media mention of the gangs of Fake Asylum Seekers harassing British women and children everywhere they are housed.
Nigel Farage has also neglected to mention any of this, before condemning the British protesters.

Stoke. Not where I live now, but that’s my neck of the woods. This was always f*ckin inevitable. So inevitable in fact that it cannot possibly be an accident. The establishment hate us and the police have abandoned us, I see little other option now than for a mass revolt. We’re damned if we do and damned if we don’t, and I’d prefer to go out on my shield than hiding behind a sofa hoping it’ll all magically sort itself out. And I don’t say those words lightly.
Is it only far right thugs that we need protecting from?
I would have thought that we need protecting from all thugs, just like all lives matter rather than just black ones.
But no, we are assured we don’t have two tier policing
How the establishment can continue to claim we don’t have 2 tier policing is beyond astonishing.
Lets take Rotherham as a case…. From the late 80s to 2013 the authorities (that not just the police but social workers etc al) turned a blind eye to the abuse of 1400 girls, and is the biggest child protection scandel in British history.
These sort of numbers meant that those families and extended families affected where colllosal within their communities.
As it transpires nothing has changed, the immigrants housed in their local Holiday Inn are reported to have been harassing young girls at local parks, following them at dark and verbally abusing them.
Is it to anyone’s surprise that things have come to ahead??
A new “Islamaphobia” law… Really??
Looking at the UK list of proscribed terrorist groups;
https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/266038/List_of_Proscribed_organisations.pdf
Of the 52 groups listed; 35 appear to be groups related to Islam.
Does the Islamic faith not have some serious questions to address when that Faith appears to be linked to the majority of terrorists groups proscribed under UK law?
And in other news, more apparently fit and healthy former athletes die suddenly – well, without explanation but with ‘shock and sadness’. Olympian John Nuttal and former cricketer Graham Thorpe were both in their mid 50s and still active.
Even WE don’t seem to remark on it any more.

Lee Harris (GB News commentator) also posted this clip of a brilliant teacher who shows one of his students how his view that JK Rowling is a bigot is not borne out by her actual words.
“Violent clashes broke out between far-Right rioters and Muslim counter-protesters”
Surely if the muslims are “counter-protestors” then the indigenous population are protestors not rioters.
No comments allowed on any of these articles in the Telegraph.
If these are the words used in the Telegraph I dread to think what is being said in the the Guardian etc
I do hope the police are using a balanced fair approach on all sides!!
