JHB talking about being treated like an enemy of the state :- https://twitter.com/i/status/1717888317071790188

Bought ECR Lorac’s “Theft of the of the Iron Dogs” recently from British Library Crime Classics. with the following sentence in a note from the publisher “The following text is reproduced from the original with minor edits made for consistency of style and sense.

EVs Myths, Dreams and Reality

I do feel that the EV issue is going to prove the issue where reality hits the net-zero dream. The net-zero enthusiasts have demanded that EVs come in as a net-zero replacement for ICE vehicles and yes they are a means of transport but in so many ways they fail to do what ICE vehicles can do. Whilst people use their cars mainly for utilitarian day to day activities, they dream of the days they can load up the car with surf boards, tents, canoes or fishing kit and head off for carefree holiday and leisure activities. Well EVs may manage the utilitarian stuff but people can see the limitations for the role of EVs in leisure activities.

Given all the issues with EVs, fires, insurance, cost, repair problems, poor electric supply and lack of re-cycling facilities; increasingly EVs are being seen as more a liability than an asset. In that respect, whether or not they provide transport, the last thing you would want is to actually own one! Many of the EVs on our roads are corporate leased EVs, very few private individuals can run to a leasehold deal for an EV. Will we end up with a healthy active secondhand market for EVs the way we currently have for ICE cars? the jury is out on that one.

With all the issues and given current technology I reckon that the UK can only manage to handle a fleet of 3 – 5 million EVs. This compares to around 30 million ICE cars currently registered in the UK. If TPTB force ICE cars off the road that is a huge number of people who will no longer be motorists. That represents a huge if not to say monumental social and economic change in the UK society. This may be just what the extreme net-zero and great reset advocates want but I do wonder how many of our politicians can see where the current EV policy is taking us? and are they ready for the very different society that will be the result?

There’ll never be peace in the Middle East as long as there’s homicidal Jew-haters ( with everybody else not far behind ) that do not do tolerance or respect human life, including that of their fellow Muslims.

”We should feel compassion for all sides. The Palestinians’ situation is appalling. As human beings they deserve much, much better than being used as human shields for the Muslim Umma’s proxies in a long fight to the death with Israel.

One must also feel deep compassion for the Israelis, who want to be left in peace. Despite many Jews having repeatedly expressed their willingness to work towards a two-state solution – from the 1930’s through to the Oslo Accords – Arabs driven by hate keep insisting on their right to wipe Israel off the face of the earth.
Palestinian leaders have repeatedly made crystal clear that they will never accept a two-state solution. The Arabs opposed partition in the 1930’s, and they oppose it still. The truth is that Israel must defeat its enemies or be defeated.

Can Hamas be defeated?
My answer is “Yes, to an extent.” The theological ideology of Hamas is not unique, but is shared by many other Islamic militant groups, including Al Qaida, the Taliban, and ISIS. This theology is persistent and it will endure, in one form or other. It can be discredited – and now, after decades of trauma caused by radical Islam, a great many Muslims are turning away from Islam – but Islamist ideology will most likely never completely disappear. Be that as it may, the hold of Hamas’s ideology on Gaza can and must be broken.

What does Israel need to do now?
Sadly, it has to fight for its security. Hamas has slammed all other doors shut. Israel must win against Hamas. It must, yet again, discredit the old Qur’anic lie about Jews loving life too much to fight.
The battle ahead is not about achieving a “proportionate response.” This is not a tit-for-tat war, in which one side’s casualties justify or validate an equal number of deaths on the other side. That would be a morally repulsive idea. On Israel’s side this is a war for security and survival, while for Hamas, it is a war to eliminate Israel.”

I recall a former member of ISIS being interviewed on Triggernometry a couple of years back. When asked if ‘re-education ‘ was the solution. He said, ‘only with about a half to two thirds of them. The rest are so deeply indoctrinated, the only re-education that works is a bullet to the head.

Shank Louk’s body has not been found..there is no evidence to suggest she was beheaded, it grieves me to see DS lower themselves to this crap..but another day, another round of propaganda.

As if the story isn’t tragic enough, the original interview with Shani’s parents can be found in the German Newspaper, Bild..(if you speak Herman)…or this is a more accurate account…

And here is the clip of the Met police showing exactly what they think of the Jewish community and how ‘impartial’ they are. Perhaps if they’d genuinely wanted to ‘avoid inflaming tensions’ they’d have done something about the pro-Jihad and antisemitic behaviour, along with the waving of many Jihadist flags in the massive pro-Palestine demonstrations, which involved NO Jews, as opposed to this disgusting display. They are as sick as they are useless.

“They are as sick as they are useless.”

I agree Mogs. What message does this send to Jewish people?

What message does this send to pro Hammas?

Why are police doing this? Because they know that law abiding Jewish people won’t fight back.

Pantsdown version 2023: ‘denies ever calling for a lockdown’

Pantsdown version 2020: ‘“I think people’s sense of what is possible in terms of control changed quite dramatically between January and March,” Professor Ferguson says. When SAGE observed the “innovative intervention” out of China, of locking entire communities down and not permitting them to leave their homes, they initially presumed it would not be an available option in a liberal Western democracy: It’s a communist one party state, we said. We couldn’t get away with it in Europe, we thought… and then Italy did it. And we realised we could.’

“These days, lockdown feels inevitable. It was, he reminds me, anything but. “If China had not done it,” he says, “the year would have been very different.””

‘To be clear, SAGE does not recommend policy. SAGE makes judgements about science, looking at scientific evidence, including about how rapidly the epidemic is moving and what the likely lethality is, and not recommendations about interventions but insights into what interventions might have what effect.’

‘When it became apparent that actually there would be no way of managing the epidemic to the extent that healthcare demand in that first wave would not overwhelm the NHS, we moved—in some ways slightly reluctantly—to looking at much more intensive strategies.’

‘I think the UK, more than many countries but not all countries, did intensive assessment of whether alternative strategies were possible in terms of avoiding the country needing to be in lockdown, or equally effective measures, for a very long period. We concluded that that was not possible’

So Pantsdown never actually called for a lockdown, simply concluded that no other approach was possible……..

A new career as a ‘novelty dancer’ dancing on the head of a pin beckons……

I have a question.
I like to think I am a Free Speech absolutist, however I often hear that you cannot be an absolutists if you use the word ‘but’ after defending Free Speech.

I like to use ‘but’ in that I don’t think Free Speech applies if there is incitement of violence. 

Does that mean I am not an absolutist or is the ‘incitement of violence’ covered by law as not being allowed.
If that is the case, I would suggest calling for Jihad falls under ‘incitement of violence’ and then why is this allowed during protests?

My own rule of thumb is generally people can say what they want…even if I think it’s wrong or vile…(I think that about some of the comments I see on here, and in the Telegraph..LOL) …but I’ve no intention of ‘capping’ anyone…!!

In this instance I think it’s hard to go against your own natural bias..and the prevailing propaganda….we all do it..but I think if you do believe in free speech you have to question yourself….and I include myself in this…..

Whether you agree or not with the end result…I’ll Just play Devils Advocate here…

I suppose you would have to prove that by shouting Jihad….they are actually threatening you..or inciting someone to do something…and clearly the bias here says that in this case there’s an assumption that Jihad has a particular meaning …and that it is a bad meaning….and from that you can extrapolate incitement to violence ?

In the context of what we are seeing in Gaza, Instead of ‘Jihad’ if they were shouting ‘struggle and fight against the enemies of Islam’…(which is one of its most basic meanings) it might not seem entirely unreasonable…?

Would it, in reality and law, be any different to a similar mass protest of people shouting ‘struggle and fight against the enemies of Israel”….?

Is the difference a real difference, or one of bias? One scares you, one doesn’t…one has a wrongness one has a rightness?…..one you believe, one you don’t….?

but the ‘free speech’ bit is the same in both I would argue….

I think lawyers would have a field-day, wouldn’t they?.. and I suspect I haven’t helped…LOL!!!

Toby, the continuing campaign against electric vehicles is risking the integrity and reputation of The Daily Sceptic. I fear that Will’s vehement opposition to EVs is based on his dislike of the net zero crowd who love these vehicles. I am equally opposed to these people but my mind is not so crazed that it cannot see that EVs are technically superior, are and will continue to become cheaper, and will replace petrol and diesel transport. His impression of King Canute will embarrass his future self.

If they are superior people will chose them in preference to ICE vehicles and there would be no need for the state to dictate to car dealers what proportion of sales have to be of EVs.

Maybe, just maybe? in the end we will develop technology to enable EVs to be a viable option? But at the moment, given current technology, mineral resources, poor electric infrastructure, safety concerns, insurance costs, purchase cost, repair costs and the current lack of re-cycling ability, we cannot replace all the UKs 30 million ICE cars with EVs. If TPTB force ICE cars off the road and insist on EVs or nothing, there will be a lot of people who will be forced to stop motoring. With motoring being a key part of our economy and our social structure; this will be a huge change and could lead to social unrest. It will certainly divide society between the corporate lease hold EV drivers and the rest of us hoi-polloi who will be obliged to take the bus.

Yes indeed for sure; new technologies could change all this but we have not got these new technologies yet. Usually we get the technology sorted and then change society, with EVs we are trying to do it the other way about and in my view it will not end well.

Brilliant round up of the ‘global’ politics being played out….and a realistic take on what is actually happening around the world….and brings some much needed balance…

I have stated a few times, and put on the evidence that Netanyahu and his Government are spewing fascist, genocidal and racist speech on a near daily basis…but as they are the ‘good guys’ we are not to supposed to notice, or comment on it…

The de Villepin interview is excellent..and shames Western Politicians of all stripes who should be having this sort of debate…I have found an ‘English captioned’ version…finally…

Absolutely, Gums. I take some small comfort from my researches far and wide and from all sides that, generally speaking, the majority of global commentators are taking a much more balanced and humanitarian approach than can be gleaned from recent DS BTL. The persistent and ongoing conflation of calls for mediation and peace as exactly equivalent to malicious anti-Jewish sentiment – even if stated by those of that religious persuasion – has been particularly distressing.

Company law and regulatory regulations require all information to be kept (The Scottish First Minister has revealed there was a “social media messaging policy” that required Scottish Government figures to “routinely delete” WhatsApp messages, reports the Mail.).

Indeed, theb FCA reequires that every iteration of a financial promotion is kept for years (I cannot recall if 5 or 7 years) and each must show evidence of review and authorisation. It ought to be a requirement that all elected representatives and senior staff retain all messages that refer to policy development or presentation.

Besides all of which, I strongly suspoect WhatsApp will have the data in a server somewhere.

I cannot get past the pay wall. “The presenter of The Sky At Night has warned that science being “all just done by European white guys” may lead to a “blinkered view of the world”, reports the Telegraph.”

Therew is a solution. Black men and women should start doing more serious science. Much of science does not need expensive machines or laboratories. Besides, the aid sent overseas would have built many labs by now.

How many patents and Nobel Aewards have been granted per million of the population in countries around the world?

Like everything going on in the world, particularly when government & supra national organisations get involved, “Cui bono?”

In relation to the ongoing & long standing situation between Palestinian & Israeli politicos this update may prove insightful

Israel ramping up gas output, looks to help supply Europe:

ROUTE
Choosing a supply route is challenge which requires navigating the region’s politics, but one option would be to export to Europe via liquefaction plants in Egypt and then pipe it north via pipelines which are in various planning stages. 

A floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) facility also being discussed would allow shipments to Europe directly from Israel.

Other possibilities include the proposed Eastmed pipeline, an ambitious and costly project that would connect the gas fields to mainland Europe, or a shorter pipeline to Turkey. 

Egypt is the quickest route to Europe, an FLNG would offer independence from any transit country, while a direct pipeline would provide the cheapest end-consumer price but take longer to build, gas consultant Gina Cohen said in a report presented to both Israel’s Foreign Ministry and the European Parliament.

“Israel must act as quickly as possible as the window to sign contracts and become a significant gas supplier to Europe will only be opened for a limited time,” Cohen said.

Israel, Cyprus and Greece have already signed an agreement to build an underwater power cable linking their electricity grids and offer back-up power during emergencies.

Europe due to the war in Ukraine is looking to halt supply from Russia, provider of about 40% of its natural gas. Russian deliveries last year totalled around 155 bcm.

Israeli gas would help Europe diversify, along with supply from others such as the United States and Qatar.”
