Your Consciousness Can Enter Alternate Dimensions While You’re Dreaming, Scientist Claims (because it’s ‘part of’ Alternate Dimensions)

 How many times have you woken up feeling euphoric or deeply disturbed by a dream so vivid it felt indistinguishable from reality? 

The kind of dream that lingers. Perhaps you notice recurring motifs: specific places, faces, symbols, or even fantastical settings. You are quick to dismiss these as psychological quirks of the brain, and chances are, you will have forgotten about such dreams by midday.

But what if your dreams weren’t just caprices of the sleepy mind? What if they were revealing glimpses into a mirror realm in which your consciousness was wandering? 

To go even further, perhaps recurring dreams suggest a connection to another reality. For David Leong, PhD, an academic specializing in metaphysics and epistemology (the study of distinguishing opinion from justified belief) this might not be just an interesting hypothesis, but the truth.

“Dreams may be windows into distinct realities governed by their laws, in which the mind, unfettered by the constraints of wakefulness, can explore and interact with new forms of existence,”...<<<Read More>>>...

Grapes: The underrated superfood packed with over 1,600 health-boosting compounds

 Grapes contain over 1,600 bioactive compounds, including resveratrol, quercetin, flavonoids and catechins, which work synergistically to support heart health, brain function, digestion, immunity and longevity—outperforming many isolated supplements.

Rich in resveratrol and polyphenols, grapes help lower blood pressure, reduce LDL cholesterol and protect against strokes. They also enhance memory, focus and mood while guarding against neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's.

Grapes promote a healthy microbiome by feeding beneficial gut bacteria and contain antimicrobial compounds like resveratrol to combat pathogens, strengthening both digestion and immunity.

Grapes activate longevity-linked sirtuin genes, repair UV-induced DNA damage, boost collagen production and stabilize blood sugar despite their sweetness, aiding weight management.

Experts recommend 1-3 servings daily (¾–1½ cups) for optimal benefits. While generally safe, moderation is advised to avoid digestive discomfort, and grapes should be cut for young children to prevent choking.

A growing body of scientific research is positioning grapes as one of nature's most potent superfoods, with over 1,600 bioactive compounds that work synergistically to enhance heart health, brain function, digestion, immunity and even longevity. Unlike isolated supplements, grapes deliver a complex nutritional matrix that promotes wellness in ways single extracts cannot replicate.

A peer-reviewed study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry highlights grapes' extraordinary health benefits, challenging conventional superfood rankings that often favor berries like blueberries and acai....<<<Read More>>>...

Meningitis: Media promoted fear vs reality

A recent meningitis outbreak in the UK prompted a surge of panicked headlines – followed by acknowledgement, and relief, that cases may already have peaked. What should we all know about this disease?

“Outbreaks are alarming, and fear is exacerbated by media reporting. But although meningitis spreads via close, prolonged contact … it is not highly contagious,” World Council for Health writes.

This month, a meningitis outbreak among students in Kent, England – linked to a nightclub in Canterbury – was the subject of serious concern. It tragically claimed the lives of two young people: a teenager and a 21-year-old.

The media coverage was alarming: for example, “The deadly delays in tackling meningitis outbreak,” The Telegraph said. And “experts warn of explosive outbreak … one of the fastest-growing outbreaks of the disease they have seen in the UK,” The Guardian reported.

Yet a few days later, the tone and content were calmer. The BBC announced, “Meningitis outbreak passes peak, says health agency.” Similarly, The Guardian went with, “Kent meningitis outbreak may have peaked as UKHSA reports slowdown in cases.” And the Daily Mail confirmed that “Meningitis cases fall as health officials reveal some people were wrongly told they had the disease.”

So, what are the facts about meningitis, and what do the statistics actually show us? (N.B. Information presented here is up-to-date at the time of writing.)

Meningitis is not a single disease. It’s an umbrella term which covers inflammation of the brain/spinal cord (the meninges).  

Most cases are not the dangerous kind. Viral meningitis is far more common and usually self-limiting. Bacterial meningitis is rarer but more serious. 

Overall risk is to the public is low. Total meningitis deaths (from all causes combined) are typically in the low hundreds per year. The meningococcal form – which is most associated with outbreaks among young people – accounts for only a small fraction of these. In England in 2023-4, there were 8 recorded deaths from meningococcal disease, compared with around 30 deaths in adjacent years. The case fatality rate may appear to fluctuate a lot, but that is a normal statistical volatility owing to the small numbers overall.  

Many people carry the bacteria harmlessly. Around 1 in 10 people may carry meningococcal bacteria without symptoms.  

Early symptoms are non-specific. These include common symptoms such as headache, fever and nausea. But severe cases can deteriorate very quickly....<<<Read More>>>....

Islamologica

 Islamophobia is an irresponsible word – a political word. Let’s have, instead, some Islamologica.

I have written about Islam twice before, here and here, and I think the points I made there bear repetition and summary.

First, I argued that Islam is: 1. One 2. Unconvertible 3. Power. Hegel: “The worship of the One is the only final aim of Monometalism.”
Belloc: “It is, as a fact, the most formidable and persistent enemy which our civilisation has had, and may at any moment become as large a menace in the future as it has been in the past… [Because] Islam is apparently unconvertible.”
Girard: “For Islam, God is essentially power.”

And second, I argued that though Islam is obsessed with Oneness, tawhid, as they call it, this oneness is at least not Chinese. The oneness of Islam does not simply sanction any earthly order, like ‘All-Under-Heaven’, i.e. China – and this is because Islam, like the religion of the Israelites and Christianity, is about the kingship of God.

The second point is an essential correction to the first. Yes, Islam seeks hegemony – but it is not simply an earthly hegemony. It is a hegemony that is sanctioned by, and ultimately ruled by, God. This means it is very strong, no doubt: men have fire in their eyes as they seek hegemony and they feel justified. But it also means that this fire can be turned against the state. And NB, what we in the West think of as Islamic states are, in fact, nervous entities, since Islam is an uncertain sword in the ruler’s hand – it can be used against him.

The next thing to bring into play is a point I made when discussing the West. Our particular problem is not Islam as such. Our particular problem is with Islam in the context of Western states, where Western states are 1. liberal and 2. Christian or post-Christian. And this is not a simple problem because we, in the West, continually argue about whether liberalism is just secular in some absolute sense, or only secular in the Christian sense that we live in the saeculum of the earthly expectation that Jesus will come again and that, until he does, we have to do the best we can with Hobbes’s Leviathan or Schmitt’s katechon. Deep waters.

Let me repeat that point because I do not want it to be lost. It matters that we are unsure about how Christian our liberal order is, and that we are also unsure about what liberalism entails. Let me deal with them one by one – first Christianity, then liberalism....<<<Read More>>>...

Everyone Says ‘They’ Destroyed Tartaria… But WHO Are ‘They’?

 

 
 
Everyone Says ‘They’ Destroyed Tartaria… But WHO Are ‘They’? 
 
In many alternative history discussions about the lost empire of Tartaria, people often claim that a mysterious group erased an entire civilization from history. But very few stop to ask the most important question: Who were the people responsible? 
 
In this video, we explore the theories behind the mysterious “they” that supposedly dismantled Tartaria. From hidden global powers and secret societies to historical conflicts and suppressed technology, we examine the different explanations researchers and alternative historians propose. 
 
If Tartaria was once a powerful global civilization, then its disappearance raises serious questions. 
Who had the power to erase it? 
Why would they want Tartaria gone? 
And how could such a massive part of history vanish from mainstream records? 
 
We’ll break down the most talked-about theories, analyze historical clues, and look at the bigger picture surrounding Tartaria’s alleged fall. Whether you're new to Tartaria research or deep into alternative history, this discussion will challenge what you think you know. 
 
Watch until the end and decide for yourself: Who were “they”?

Exercising Flexibility

 Flexibility is the capacity to bend without breaking, as well as a continual willingness to change or be changed in order to accommodate new circumstances. People with flexible minds are open to shifting their course when necessary or useful; they are not overly attached to things going the way they had planned. This enables them to take advantage of opportunities that a more rigid person would miss out on. It also can make life a lot more fun. When we are flexible, we allow for situations we could not have planned, and so the world continues to surprise and delight us.

Since reality is in a constant state of flux, it doesn’t make sense to be rigid or to cling to any one idea of what is happening or what is going to happen. We are more in tune with reality when we are flexible. Being in tune enables us to adjust to the external environment and other people as they change and grow. When we are rigid or stuck in our ways, we hunker down, clinging to a concept of reality rather than reality itself. When we do this, we cut ourselves off from life, and we miss out on valuable opportunities, as well as a lot of joy. 

Just as we create flexibility in our bodies by stretching physically, we can create limberness in our minds by stretching mentally. Every day we have the opportunity to exercise our flexibility. We can do this in small ways such as taking a different route home from work or changing our exercise routine. On a larger scale, we can rearrange the furniture or redo a room in our house. If these are things we already do regularly, we can stretch our minds by imagining several different possibilities for how the next year will unfold. As we do this, our minds become more supple and open, and when changes come our way, we are able to accommodate and flow with the new reality.(Daily OM)

Six Botanical Alternatives to Melatonin Reported by Herbalists for Sleep Support

 Demand for non-pharmaceutical sleep aids has risen significantly, according to reports from herbalists and retailers in the natural health sector. The botanical industry is now valued at over $7 billion, a figure cited as evidence of growing public interest in plant-based remedies. Practitioners attribute this shift to individuals seeking alternatives to synthetic supplements.

Some individuals report concerns about dependency or tolerance associated with conventional sleep medications, leading them to explore herbal options. A perspective noted in medical literature suggests that the widespread use of pharmaceutical sleep aids is reinforced by what is described as an 'industry-concocted notion' that insomnia stems from a simple chemical imbalance. This perspective, according to the source, discourages addressing personal and lifestyle factors...<<<Read More>>>...

The Old World Airports They Erased — 200 Years Before Planes Were "Invented"

 

 
 
What explains how dozens of structures — built across four continents, sharing identical proportions, identical anchor points, identical approach clearances — were all officially designated as "customs depots" and "civic pavilions"? Structures so overbuilt, so precisely engineered, so curiously vague in their documentation that the standard explanation doesn't survive contact with a tape measure. 
 
The official timeline of aviation begins in 1903. But the infrastructure tells a different story. Forty-foot ceilings in 18th-century warehouses. Mooring rings at rooftop height. Paved approach corridors cleared of natural obstruction for impossible distances. And early photographs — daguerreotypes, albumen prints from the 1840s and 1850s — showing elongated aerial forms above the exact buildings that were later repurposed, perfectly, as transit hubs when rail arrived. Then aviation. Then airports. The same bones. Every time. 
 
The deeper I went into the architectural surveys, the expedition records, the cartographic margins where the word Tartaria quietly disappears from the maps — a pattern emerged I could not dismiss. Not regional coincidence. Not parallel overbuilding. The same structure, on four continents, documented in the haziest possible terms, bearing infrastructure that has no function under the official timeline. And the archive closes around each one with the same vague language: unknown origin, unknown function, unknown date. 
 
This investigation asks whether aviation was invented in 1903 — or whether it was rediscovered then. And what was quietly repurposed, relabeled, and placed just out of reach in the centuries before.

Global problem + global solution + censorship = scam

If they tell you there’s a global problem for which they have a global solution, and they suppress and censor dissenters – it is a scam.

Propaganda is the systematic dissemination of information designed to shape public perception toward a specific goal or agenda. Such information is typically false or designed to misdirect, and a key sign of it being false is that dissenting narratives are suppressed. Throughout history, governments and industries have used propaganda to create and defend large-scale false narratives. This is an utterly unremarkable thing to say. No historian on the planet would contest it.

The pattern is that of a latent agenda driving the generation of false propaganda, seeking to culminate in the distillation of an ideology. Once the ideology is firmly rooted in the public imagination, the latent agenda can become patent, meaning it can be implemented in the broad light of day without material objection.

This framework has close historical analogues. The Hegelian Dialectic, the favourite of Marxists, talks about thesis, antithesis and synthesis. The so-called PRS model talks about problem-reaction-solution.

Before the distillation of an ideology is achieved, the false narrative must be protected from dissent by way of censorship. Those who try to expose the latent agenda are derided as “conspiracy theorists” or “deniers” of a purported problem. During the covid phenomenon, I framed this as a law dubbed Hudson’s Razor, stating that anything that is (1) presented as a global crisis (2) admitting only global solutions (3) amid suppression of dissent, is definitively a scam.

This is, of course, not to say that there can never be any such thing as a global crisis. If a volcano bigger than Krakatoa blew its top, we’d all know about it for years. But global solutions would be very unlikely. People in one place might prioritise buying blankets; in another, building greenhouses. And suppression of dissenters would be completely pointless. We wouldn’t need to call a blind man who couldn’t see the ash cloud a volcano-denier, or censor anyone who said the ash actually came from a different source. People would just get on with the job of dealing with less sunlight in multiple different ways.

It is difficult to fake a physical crisis with a tangible, visible threat. Telling people a volcano had gone boom when it hadn’t wouldn’t work if you lacked the capacity to fake an enormous ash cloud. So, the default pattern is to pretend there is an invisible threat that is a global crisis. The global solution can then be a form of “safety” whose efficacy exists only in a theory or in a model, and the suppression of dissent can include the customary allegation that all sceptics are “deniers” of the invisible threat. If the fear generation is implemented properly, nothing about the solution needs to make any sense. People will clamour for it....<<<Read More>>>...

The Deep State Plan to Use Smart Appliances to Force Us to Cut Energy Use is Already Well Advanced

 In order to understand anything about public policy as the 21st century progresses, it is critically important to hone one’s ability to read esoterically. What is important is not what is said, but what is not said. There is the official, publicly acceptable, ‘exoteric’ line. And then there is the truth that lies underneath – often deliberately obscured.

I was thinking about this the other day when reading, as one tends to do over a nice lunch at the local Italian bistro with a pizza and a glass of red, a 2015 position paper on ‘Making the electricity system more flexible and delivering the benefits for consumers’. This was issued by Ofgem (the quango which regulates the energy market in the UK) at the start of the ongoing process to transform our energy market into one governed by “energy smart appliances”. These, for those who have been paying attention, are electric devices (your fridge, your washing machine, your EV charger, etc.) which are able to respond to ‘load control’ signals issued through the internet, and thereby reduce or delay energy consumption. Or, to put it more bluntly, appliances which can be controlled remotely so as to limit how much electricity households are able to use. Coming soon to a kitchen near you.

The last time I wrote about this issue in substance was in 2023, not long before the Energy Act 2023 was enacted. That statute created the legal framework within which the use of energy smart appliances could be mandated and regulated. We now find ourselves entering the next stage: gradual implementation. A draft set of regulations, the Energy Smart Appliances Regulations 2026, is currently making its way through Parliament. This, we are told, is the “first phase“. The regulations, among other things, provide for “minimum smart functionality, safety, grid stability requirements and cyber and physical security requirements”, and “the creation of a single regulatory framework for smart appliances”. We can then look forward to a “second phase” beginning in 2027, when presumably things will start to get more serious.

What is going on? Clearly, and I use this phrase advisedly, a Deep State project is afoot. 2015 is quite a long time ago now: there have been four General Elections since then, not to mention 500 or so Prime Ministers and an awful lot of turmoil (Brexit, lockdowns, Ukraine, mini-budget, etc.). But the shift towards mandating the installation and use of energy smart appliances has continued regardless. It is almost as though it is not politicians who have been driving the policy, but Ofgem acting in cahoots with civil servants in the then-Department of Energy and Climate Change, who also issued a very similar policy paper in 2015 to Ofgem’s own. It is not our elected representatives who want us to use energy smart appliances, in other words. It is the regulators. And the policy is invincible to changes in government.

This makes it far more important, in getting to grips with the idea, to read what the regulators say over what politicians do. And what they say has to be parsed carefully. There is in fact a glossary of terms which of necessity have to be read esoterically – they are used not just to obfuscate but often actually to give the opposite impression to what is really going on. One has to grapple with the exoteric and often flip it upside down to find out what is underneath.

The Ofgem position paper which I mentioned earlier is a very good illustration. And this begins with the title: ‘Making the electricity system more flexible and delivering the benefits for consumers’. This sounds, on the face of it, like something benign. Indeed, if anything, it is suggestive of a free market approach – it looks to the naked eye as if the strategy is to liberalise the energy market in order to drive down prices at the supply side. But that is in fact more or less the exact opposite of what the position paper sets out. In fact, what it is focused on is something which it calls Demand Side Flexibility (DSF), or sometimes Demand Side Response (DSR) – better understood as precisely the reverse of supply-side reform.

What, then, is Demand Side Flexibility? Well, the position paper goes to great lengths to make clear what a good thing it is. Demand Side Flexibility, it says, is about “empowerment” of consumers. It is about helping them to “better monitor and manage their energy use” and “make informed choices about when they use electricity”. It us about giving them “opportunities to lower [their] bills by changing when and how [they]” do so. Indeed, it is about giving them the space in which to ‘smarten’ their approach to energy use in the round....<<<Read More>>>...

Spiritual Practice

 Many spiritual seekers feel called to far-flung places across the globe in the interest of pursuing the path of their enlightenment. This may indeed be the right course of action for certain people, but it is by no means necessary for attaining an enlightened consciousness. Enlightenment can take root anywhere on Earth as long as the seeker is an open and ready vessel for higher consciousness. All we need is a powerful intention, and a willingness to do the work necessary to move forward on our path. 

In terms of spiritual practice, at this moment, there are more tools available to more people than at any other time in history. We have access to so much wisdom through books, magazines, the internet, television, and film. In addition, the time-honored practice of meditation is free, and sitting quietly everyday, listening to the universe, is a great way to start the journey within. There is further inspiration in the fact that the greatest teachers we have are our own life experiences, and they come to us every day with new lessons and new opportunities to learn. If we look at the people around us, we may realize that we have a spiritual community already intact, and if we don’t, we can find one, if not in our own neighborhood then online.

Meanwhile, if we feel called to travel in search of teachers and experiences, then by all means, we should. But if we can’t go to India, Burma, or Indonesia, or if we don’t have the desire, this is not an obstacle in terms of our spiritual development. In fact, we may simply be aware that our time and energy is best spent in our own homes, with our meditation practice and all the complications and joys of our own lives. We can confidently stay in one place, knowing that everything that we need to attain enlightenment is always available right where we are...<<<Read More>>>>....

Why 432 Hz Was Replaced by 440 Hz — The Frequency Shift They Never Explained

 

 

Why was A=440 Hz adopted as the global tuning standard, and what was lost when music moved away from lower reference pitches like A=432 Hz? This video investigates the history of musical pitch standardization, from Baroque tuning and 19th-century orchestral practice to Verdi’s 1884 petition for A=432 and the later adoption of ISO 16 in 1955. It explores the disputed claims surrounding 432 Hz vs 440 Hz, the politics of musical standardization, Hans Jenny’s cymatics experiments, resonance in old architecture, the acoustic design of cathedrals, and the broader question of whether frequency affects the human body, emotion, and perception more deeply than official culture admits. This is a historical and investigative look at tuning frequency, music theory, sound resonance, psychoacoustics, and the unexplained shift that changed how modern music is heard.

Why They No Longer Need Us: The Dawn of Post-Human Labor

 I stand at a precipice, looking out over a landscape that is no longer ours. The convergence of abundant energy and machine cognition has rendered human labor and thought obsolete. This isn't a distant prophecy; it is the lived reality of 2026. Globalist planners, the architects of this new world, have crossed a threshold where humanity is now a liability, not an asset. 

They see our consumption, our need for housing and healthcare, and our restless desire for freedom as friction in their perfectly optimized, AI-driven system.

We are at a historic pivot point, and denial is a luxury we cannot afford. As one article starkly puts it, this represents one of the greatest existential threats to human freedom, dignity and consciousness. The evidence is not hidden; it's in the mass layoffs at corporations like Amazon and UPS, where AI-driven automation has already replaced tens of thousands of human workers. The end of the human era isn't coming -- it has arrived, and its architects are already drawing up the blueprints for what, or rather who, comes next...<<<Read More>>>....

M&S Accuses Labour of Driving up Energy Bills

 M&S has accused the Government of driving up energy bills, with CEO Stuart Machin saying taxes and levies now account for more than half of his company’s energy costs and have “nothing to do with the price of oil or gas”. The Telegraph has the story.

Stuart Machin, who runs the retail giant, said Government-imposed levies now accounted for more than half of his company’s energy costs and had “nothing to do with the price of oil or gas”.

“Over the last few years the ‘policy costs’ on our energy bill have skyrocketed,” Machin wrote on LinkedIn.

“These are the tariffs that [the Government] place on our bills to fund their policies, and have nothing to do with the price of oil or gas. They now make up over half our bill. It’s just not sustainable for UK businesses.”

The comments came as the OECD said Britain faced the biggest hit from surging oil and gas prices out of any major economy.

Inflation will surge more sharply than in other developed nations and wipe half a percentage point off UK growth this year, according to its forecast.

The UK is particularly exposed because of its heavy reliance on imported energy. Oil prices have risen from $70 per barrel a month ago to around $100 today, while natural gas prices have nearly doubled since the start of the war in Iran.

The OECD’s forecast is a blow to the Government, which before the start of the conflict in the Gulf had hoped that cost-of-living pressures would ease this year.

Rachel Reeves, the Chancellor, said the UK had not started the war but that it would have “an impact on our country”. She insisted Labour had “the right economic plan”.

Machin’s frustration with Government policy stems from green energy levies added to the wholesale price of energy....<<<Read More>>>....

Islamification of the West: Muslims are simply doing what Muslims have always done

 Last year, Raymond Ibrahim explained what the concept of ribat is, both historically and today. Because the Koran instructs Muslims to form ribats to carry out jihad against infidels, when Muslims enter a Western nation, they instinctively form ribats.

Muslims are simply doing what Muslims have always done, he said. What has changed is that our politicians are inviting them into our nations and supporting them while they do it.

Ribat is an Arabic term originally denoting a small frontier fortification built during the early Muslim conquests, particularly in the 8th century, to house volunteer soldiers who defended Islamic territories (dar al-Islam). These structures were initially established along frontiers such as those in North Africa and the Byzantine borderlands to support military efforts in jihad.

Contemporary use of the term “ribat” has been defined as keeping watch and carrying out jihad against infidels. It has been used by terrorist groups such as al-Qa’ida and ISIS.

As Raymond Ibrahim explains below, the Koran 3 verse 200 instructs Muslims to endure and remain fastened. The Arabic word used is “raabitoo,” the verb of “ribat.” In other words, according to the Koran, “for Muslims to be successful, they must form tightly fastened strongholds along the borders of still to be conquered non-Muslim regions. From there, they persevere and endure, to use the Koran’s words, in their jihad to conquer and seize the lands of the infidels.”...<<<Read More>>>...

Study Links Chocolate Consumption to Lower Mortality Risk

 A new meta-analysis has found that consuming chocolate is associated with a lower risk of death from any cause, according to a study published in Frontiers in Nutrition. The research suggests chocolate consumers had a 10% lower risk of all-cause mortality and a 16% lower risk of death from heart disease. The study, led by researchers from Harokopio University of Athens, analyzed dietary and mortality data from more than three million participants.

The findings were reported in an article titled 'Eggs-cellent news! Eating chocolate can help stave off the Grim Reaper, scientists find' which outlined the potential health benefits. According to the study authors, fermentation in chocolate production may create beneficial compounds that contribute to these effects. The study adds to a body of research on the potential benefits of specific fermented foods.

Starmer: It’s Up to Miliband Whether We Drill in North Sea

 Sir Keir Starmer has said it is Ed Miliband’s decision whether Britain drills for oil and gas in the North Sea, claiming he has no power in the matter. The Telegraph has more.

The Prime Minister claimed he had no power to approve more licences and insisted that the final call lay with the Energy Secretary.

Labour is under mounting pressure – including from Donald Trump – to approve new extraction at Rosebank and Jackdaw, two fossil fuel sites in the North Sea, after the Iran war caused energy costs to spiral.

At Prime Minister’s Questions on Wednesday, Kemi Badenoch, the leader of the Conservatives, said that Sir Keir could make the decision to drill today and accused him of “hiding behind” Miliband.

Critics have already claimed that Miliband wields too much power over the Prime Minister after he successfully led opposition to the UK allowing the US to strike Iran from British bases.

Despite the energy crisis, Miliband has reiterated his vocal opposition to North Sea drilling, arguing repeatedly that it would not bring down prices.

When Badenoch challenged Sir Keir to approve the licences, the Prime Minister insisted that current laws prevented him from overruling the Energy Secretary.

Sir Keir suggested any move by Miliband to drill would be a legal decision rather than political, saying: “It’s absolutely clear that the quasi-judicial duty of the legislation rests with the Secretary of State.”

He added: “The only way forward is to go further and faster on renewables and the leader of the Opposition’s approach is to outsource our foreign policy and let the US decide whether we go to war, to outsource our energy policy to Russia and Iran and let them set the price of energy. I will never do that, because it’s not in the British national interest.”

Badenoch had questioned whether it was Sir Keir or Miliband, who has been touted as a potential leadership contender, who was really in charge.

The Tory leader said: “The Jackdaw gas field could be up and running before winter. All that gas would be used here in the UK to heat 1.6 million homes – that is enough to power Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex put together.

“So will the Prime Minister approve the licences or is the Energy Secretary running the Government?”

Badenoch added: “He is hiding behind so many people. He is the Prime Minister, he can make the decision today, he can. He is so weak, he’s the first person to be pushed around by the Energy Secretary.”

She later shared an image of Sir Keir with his head in his hands shortly after PMQs with the caption: “TFW [that feeling when] Ed Miliband is running the Government.”...<<<Read More>>>...

Digital IDs are insecure and can be hacked

 Professor Norman Fenton recently had his Twitter account taken over by hackers who sent out thousands of spam posts and messages.

This serves as a warning for those who adopt digital identities (“IDs”).

I predict now that in every country that adopts the digital IDs wanted by our globalist overlords in the WEF and UN, hundreds of thousands to millions of lives will be ruined each year, Dr. Scott McLaghalan says.

On Wednesday, Norman Fenton, Professor Emeritus at Queen Mary University of London, published an article describing how he lost control of his Twitter (now X) account to a hacker on 18 March but has now regained limited control.

“After sending a spam ‘vote for me’ direct message (with a malicious link) to all my mutual followers on 20 March, the attackers began posting spam publicly. Not sporadically, but continuously: the bot was posting roughly once per second, pausing only intermittently to repost content from accounts I follow. By the time I regained access, there were thousands of spam posts and reposts,” he said. “For now, anyone visiting my timeline will see little but pages of spam.”

Prof. Fenton ended his article by saying, “Regaining access to my account ultimately required persistence, external pressure, and, quite likely, legal escalation. Many users facing similar attacks will not have those options.

“If X cannot reliably protect accounts, respond promptly to verified compromise reports, and restore control without unnecessary barriers, then users are left dangerously exposed.

Menticide: Don’t Fall Victim to Mind Control Technologies & Techniques

 The US Central Intelligence Agency’s (CIA) mind control experiments, dating back to the 1950s, are well-known. Their MK-ULTRA experiments in sensory deprivation continue to be used on Guantánamo Bay captives. But until Ian Cobain’s book Cruel Britannia, few people knew that British psychologists had pioneered the use of sensory deprivation for mind control.

During WWII, Lord Swinton “pressed the Home Office for permission to open an MI5 interrogation centre,” codenamed Camp 020. Brightly lit for 24 hours, a resident doctor reportedly said that the Camp induced “mental atrophy and extreme loquacity” in its victims. A resident medical officer named Harold Dearden “dreamed up the regimes of starvation and of sleep and sensory deprivation.” The Camp was one of a number, including the MI19-run Combined Services Detailed Interrogation Centre, later renamed A19.

After the War, several individuals convened to share intelligence on mind control. They represented the Defence Research Policy Committee, the Joint Intelligence Bureau, the Canadian Defence Research Board, the CIA’s Research and Development Board, and the Psychology Unit at McGill University (Montreal). The latter was led by Donald Hebb.

The scientists referred to their psychological devastation techniques as “menticide.” Hebb subjected terrier puppies to prolonged isolation before trying it on consenting postgraduate students. The British and American governments and the CIA funded Hebb’s successors, including his former student Dr Maitland Baldwin. Baldwin found “that sensory deprivation would almost certainly cause irreparable psychological damage” in humans....<<<Read More>>>...

The Global Energy Collapse: How Trump’s War is Unleashing Famine, Fuel Rationing, and the End of Abundance

 I am watching the world unravel in real-time. From the empty diesel pumps in Sydney to the desperate lines for petrol in Manila, a chilling new reality is taking shape. This is not a temporary supply hiccup or a market fluctuation. In my view, we are witnessing the first, deliberate tremors of a global energy collapse -- an engineered crisis designed to shatter the foundations of modern abundance and force humanity into a state of controlled scarcity.  

Donald Trump, having won the 2024 election, now presides over a Republican-controlled Congress and a nation hurtling toward a self-inflicted catastrophe. His unprovoked war on Iran, a conflict I believe is being waged as a proxy for darker, more sinister masters, has severed the world’s most critical energy artery: the Strait of Hormuz. What flows from this rupture is not just crude oil or liquefied natural gas, but famine, rationing, and the systematic dismantling of the liberty that affordable energy provides. This is the story of how one man’ childish understanding of power, harnessed by a satanic ideology, is unleashing hell on Earth...<<<Read More>>>...

Is the UK meningitis “outbreak” diagnosing hangovers?

 Professor Martin Neil uses artificial intelligence (“AI”) to calculate the relative and absolute risk of meningitis, given the symptoms and test results.

AI “hallucinated” the supporting science papers and resisted Prof. Neil’s initial assertion. It “then completely backs my subsequent line of questioning and reasoning,” he said.  Bottom line is that there are 66 false positives for every true case, and about a 1 in 67 chance a student diagnosed as having meningitis actually has it.

Even more damning is: When asked, AI calculated that about 30% of students at the end of a weekend would be labelled as “suspected cases” of meningitis purely from hangovers, colds and background noise.

UK news has been chock full of scare stories about the meningitis “outbreak” in Kent, England, accompanied by the vaccination of students and with high-strength antibiotics handed out like sweets.

Being busy on other things, we’ve ignored it, but now news is coming out in the press that the “cases” are now being downgraded and are now “past their peak.”

Astute readers will, of course, have twigged that this whole panic has been confected from the start.

The parallels to covid are obvious, especially so when you take into account operation Pegasus, which ran in Kent in 2025 and was celebrated as the largest pandemic preparedness simulation in UK history.

Also relevant is that the reported epicentre of the outbreak is a nightclub called Chemistry in Canterbury, a University town in Kent. 

Peter McCollough has even claimed that this outbreak is evidence of a laboratory-leak. So, yet again we see the usual fear-mongering canards rearing their ugly heads ....<<<Read More>>>....


Death May Be a Misunderstanding — What Relativity Actually Says

 

Shock New Evidence Showing No Link Between CO2 and Temperature Over Last Three Million Years Stumps Net Zero Activists

 The climate science world (‘settled’ division) is in shock following the discovery in ancient ice cores that levels of carbon dioxide remained stable as the world plunged into an ice age around 2.7 million years ago. Levels of CO2 at around 250 parts per million (ppm) were said to be lower than often assumed with just a 20 ppm movement recorded for the following near three million-year period. In addition, no changes in methane levels were seen in the entire period. Massive decreases in temperature with occasional interglacial rises appear to have occurred without troubling ‘greenhouse’ gas levels, and this revelation has caused near panic in activist circles.

The assumed level three million years ago of CO2 was around 400 ppm, a convenient mark that has been used to explain the subsequent ice age and a drop to 250 ppm. Due to the recently published paper, this explanation has become more problematic and natural climate variation is correctly noted to have occurred with the temperature changes. Alas, similar explanations are mostly ignored in discussing today’s climate changes in the interests of promoting the Net Zero fantasy. Some cling desperately to a dominant CO2 role, including one of the authors of the findings published in Nature. The co-author states that the results suggest even greater climate sensitivity to the warming effect of CO2. In short, there is a great deal of applying the laws of physics and chemistry to one era, but failing to extend the same courtesy to another.The title of the paper, produced by 17 America-based scientists, was enough to set alarm bells ringing in the ‘settled’ science, Net Zero-obsessed community: ‘Broadly stable atmospheric CO2 and CH4 levels over the past three million years.’ A related paper examining ocean heat content derived from the ice core record was also published. Carrie Lear, Professor of Past Climates and Earth System Changes at Cardiff University, claimed that the papers “don’t rewrite the role of CO2, they underline how sensitive the climate system is… that is why today’s rapid CO2 rise is so alarming”.

Ah, yes. Even if CO2 movements are minimal, probably within a margin of potential error, they are still responsible for large variations in temperature. The laws of climate science are ‘settled’ – if the trace atmospheric gas CO2 is rising, falling or generally stable, it is almost wholly responsible for large movements in global temperature. Under this rather shaky assumption, humans must stop burning hydrocarbons and return to a neo-Malthusian pre-industrial age...<<<Read More>>>...

The Decisions You Make

 Our lives are defined by the decisions we make each day. When we choose one option over another, whether we are selecting a restaurant or considering a cross-country move, we shape our lives. The decision-making process can be empowering, allowing us to enjoy the benefits of self-determination. Yet, it can also be a source of anxiety because decisions force us to face the possibility of dissatisfaction and inner conflict. As a result, many of us opt to avoid making decisions by allowing others to make them for us. We consequently turn our power over to spouses, relatives, friends, and colleagues, granting them the stewardship of our lives that is ours by right. Though the decisions we must make are often difficult, we grow more self-sufficient and secure each time we trust ourselves enough to choose. 

Ultimately, only you can know how the options before you will impact your daily life and your long-term well-being. Within you lies the power to competently weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each selection. Even if you feel incapable of making a decision, your inner wisdom and your intuitive mind will give you sound counsel if you have faith in yourself. Try to come to your own conclusions before seeking the guidance of others, and even then, treat their suggestions as supplementary information rather than votes to be tallied. Before making your choice, release your fear of wrong decisions. Perceived mistakes can lead you down wonderful and unexpected paths that expose you to life-changing insights. If you can let go of the notion that certain choices are utterly right while others are entirely wrong, you will be less tempted to invite others to take the reins of your destiny. 

When your choices are your own, you will be more likely to accept and be satisfied with the outcome of those choices. Your decisions will be a pure reflection of your desires, your creativity, your awareness, and your power. Since you understand that you must live with and take responsibility for your decisions, you will likely exercise great care when coming to conclusions. As you learn to make informed and autonomous choices, you will gain the freedom to consciously direct the flow of your life without interference. (Daily OM)

Study: Millions report illness from proximity to wireless radiation

 A new peer-reviewed study estimates over 26 million adults across the U.S., Australia, and Canada report health symptoms linked to wireless radiation exposure.

The condition, termed EMR Syndrome, shows significant overlap with other conditions like chemical sensitivity, asthma, and autism, suggesting a common inflammatory pathway.

Researchers warn that expanding wireless infrastructure, including 5G, may be contributing to the rising prevalence of reported sensitivity.

Historical parallels are drawn to the tobacco industry, with allegations that science on wireless radiation risks has been suppressed by influential corporate interests.

Experts advocate for a precautionary approach, recommending wired alternatives at home and greater public awareness of potential health impacts.

A groundbreaking international study has revealed that a significant portion of the adult population directly links their chronic health struggles to the invisible sea of wireless radiation. Published in Next Research, the analysis of nationally representative surveys from the United States, Australia, and Canada found that approximately one in eight U.S. adults report adverse health effects from exposure to devices like cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, and cell towers. The findings, which estimate over 26 million affected adults across the three nations, arrive amid longstanding accusations from public health advocates that the science on electromagnetic field (EMF) risks has been systematically downplayed, drawing unsettling parallels to the tobacco industry’s past tactics of suppression and doubt....<<<Read More>>>....

Your ID Photos Will Power UK Facial Recognition System

The UK government’s recent digital ID consultation contains a detail that should have triggered far more alarm than it did. Ministers are proposing a national identity system built around a biometric image while openly stating that police facial recognition “may include access to biometric data held by government.”

That means this is not simply about a new app for proving your age or accessing services. It points towards a system in which photos already handed to the state for passports, visas, or other official purposes could help underpin both a national digital ID and a broader facial recognition framework. This development needs to be clearly understood.

The government is now signalling that existing biometric data will form its expanding surveillance architecture, and is no longer asking for trust in a future digital ID...<<<Read More>>>...

The Gigabit Broadband Rollout Shows How Government Wastes Our Money

 In 2019, a simple political promise was made: ‘Gigabit broadband for every home.’ It sounded like progress. It sounded modern. But as monthly internet bills creep toward £40 or £50, it’s time to ask: are we paying for a service we actually need, or are we funding a massive private equity ‘rent-trap’?

To modernise the UK’s phones, we had to move from old copper wires to digital fibre. The old system was rotting; the change was necessary. But there were two ways to do it:

The engineered way: run fibre cables to the green cabinets at the end of your street, then use existing wires for the last few yards into your house. This is fast enough for 4K TV, Zoom and gaming for 95% of users.

Cost: Roughly £100 per household.

The ‘gold-plated’ way: dig up every single driveway and garden in the UK to run a brand-new glass cable directly into every living room.

Cost: Roughly £1,700 per household.

By choosing the second option, the government turned a manageable £3 billion upgrade into a staggering £50 billion-plus mega-project.

What else could £54 billion buy?

We are currently living through a national debate about where our money goes. Recent reports have highlighted that the UK’s annual benefits bill increase is approximately £18 billion – a figure often used to show how much we could have spent on 15 advanced Royal Navy frigates or 220 fighter jets.

If £18 billion is considered a transformative sum for national defence, consider the £54 billion (combining public subsidies and private equity debt) being sunk into the Gigabit rollout. For the price of ‘full fibre’ to every remote cottage, we could have funded the entire Royal Navy’s modernisation three times over. Instead, that capital is being buried in trenches to provide speeds that most households find totally unnecessary....<<<Read More>>>...

How They Buried Tartaria With 432,000,000 Tons of Mud — The Mudflood

 

 
 
What explains how city after city — on continent after continent — has its first floor underground? Not one city. Not a regional anomaly. Paris. London. Moscow. Cairo. Philadelphia. Cincinnati. The same buried windows. The same subterranean ground floors. The same architectural vocabulary, appearing simultaneously, across civilizations that had no contact with one another. 
 
The standard explanation — gradual accumulation, centuries of sediment, slow urban rise — collapses when you examine what the architectural and photographic record actually shows. Buildings designed to be entered at grade, now requiring you to walk down. Ornamental cornices sitting at street level, built to be seen from outside. Grand civic structures attributed to horse carts and hand tools, constructed in twenty-year windows, in technical vocabularies that take generations to develop. 
 
As I investigated the deeper record — from the raising of Chicago to the buried vaults of St. Petersburg to the fires that erased and rebuilt city after city between 1850 and 1910 — a pattern emerged that I could not dismiss. Not parallel coincidences. Not bad timing. The same anomaly, resurfacing across continents, in cities with every incentive to preserve distinct and competing historical records. And the gaps in the archive cluster, with unsettling precision, around the exact moments where the most important questions should be answered. 
 
Because here's what the official narrative also does. It doesn't just explain the past. It may have sealed something beneath it. Tartaria — or whatever civilization left behind its architecture in our grand public buildings, its memory in every culture's flood narrative, its fingerprint in the uniformity of a civic aesthetic no single tradition can fully claim — was quietly placed just out of reach. Not destroyed outright. Not denied entirely. Just buried. First in mud. Then in the reconstruction. Then in the story we were handed instead. 
 
This investigation asks whether these cities were built in the nineteenth century — or buried by the mudflood, and inherited by the civilization that came after.

If the American People Were Told the Truth About What’s Coming, They Would Lose Their Minds

 I have been researching and writing about systemic failures for two decades, from Fukushima to our poisoned food supply, but I see a new, insidious parallel unfolding today. In 1986, Soviet authorities lied to the citizens of Pripyat about the Chernobyl disaster, telling them it was safe to board the buses for a 'temporary evacuation.' They were told everything was fine, even as invisible radiation was already destroying their bodies from within.

In my view, the same monstrous lie is being broadcast across America today. The corporate media, acting as a mouthpiece for the state, churns out a steady stream of 'good news' while the architecture of our society is crumbling. Just as those citizens boarded the bus, Americans are being lulled into a false sense of security, unaware of the radiation-like economic fallout headed our way. Our government, like the Soviet one, sees the people as expendable assets for its own geopolitical goals, a truth laid bare by the reckless, illegal war on Iran prosecuted without broad public support. The initial shock of that war is now fading into a fog of official reassurance, a deliberate strategy to keep the public passive.

Do not be fooled by the talk of military victories. The war is coming home, not as ordinance, but as a systemic, financial, and logistical collapse. They lie that 'Iran has nothing left' to conceal the imminent triggers: energy infrastructure attacks that could shatter global hydrocarbon supply chains. The strike on Iran's South Pars gas field wasn't just a military target; it was a strategic hit on the machinery that powers a nation's lights, heat, and factories.

In my view, the panic feared by the globalist controllers isn't over a battlefield loss, but over citizens realizing their banks, pantries, and gas tanks are about to fail. When the Strait of Hormuz -- the aorta of global energy -- is closed or threatened, the entire just-in-time economic model vaporizes. This isn't theory; it's logistical reality. The lie of 'everything is fine' is meant to prevent a run on banks and grocery stores until the moment control is irrevocably lost. They have no plan for the Hormuz humiliation, just as they had no real plan for the health of the citizens after Chernobyl. ....<<<Read More>>>...


British Gas Boss: Drill the North Sea to Bring Down Energy Prices

 The head of British Gas, Chris O’Shea, has become the latest industry figure to contradict Ed Miliband’s claim that drilling the North Sea won’t bring down energy prices by calling on the Government to do precisely that. The Telegraph has more.

The head of British Gas has called on the Government to drop its ban on exploiting untapped oil and gas fields in the North Sea, saying the move would help ease spiralling energy costs.

Chris O’Shea, the Chief Executive of Centrica, which owns British Gas, said an increase in drilling would play a role in efforts to bolster energy resilience after the Iran war sent prices surging.

He said: “I do think that we should look at producing the resources that we have got ourselves. It makes sense. If you’ve got resources, you should.

“It’s not a silver bullet; nothing in and of itself will fix this. But these activities will bring prices down. It would definitely make a difference.”

Asked if increasing North Sea flows would help to lower bills, O’Shea told the BBC it would be sufficient to “make a difference across Europe.”

He said exploiting remaining reserves should be part of a wider strategy that would also include bolstering emergency gas storage.

He said: “There is a need to focus on energy security. I think we need to look at getting more gas storage, we need to look at getting more home-grown renewables and more batteries.”

Centrica is no longer involved in drilling for oil but owns the Rough natural gas storage facility off the east coast of England, which, though largely operational after years of closure, is scheduled to be converted to hold hydrogen as part of Labour’s net zero push.

Mr O’Shea joins a growing chorus of experts calling on Labour to rethink its stance on the North Sea....<<<Read More>>>....
