What John F. Kennedy Really Knew About UFOs

 When it comes to President John F. Kennedy, his interest in UFOs has been a subject of many conspiracy theories, especially given the timing of his inquiries into the matter just before his assassination.

John F. Kennedy’s interest in UFOs is documented through several sources, most notably through a series of letters he sent in November 1963. One of these letters, addressed to the CIA Director, requested access to UFO files.

The previously classified documents were released under the Freedom of Information Act to teacher William Lester as part of a research for his book about JFK. Lester said that JFK’s interest in UFOs could have been fuelled by concerns about relations with the former Soviet Union.

One of his concerns was that a lot of these UFOs were being seen over the Soviet Union and he was very concerned that the Soviets might misinterpret these UFOs as U.S. aggression, believing that it was some of our technology,” the Daily Mail quoted Lester as telling AOL News....<<<Read More>>>...

The dark truth about SSRI antidepressants: How Big Pharma concealed their link to violence and suicide

 SSRI antidepressants like Prozac, Paxil and Zoloft are linked to severe side effects, including violent psychosis, suicide, emotional blunting and permanent neurological damage, while often performing no better than placebos for depression.

Pharmaceutical companies and the FDA concealed clinical trial data showing SSRIs induce aggression, suicidal tendencies and birth defects—despite thousands of complaints and lawsuits exposing the deception.

Up to 60% of users suffer permanent sexual dysfunction (genital numbness, loss of libido), while SSRIs prescribed during pregnancy increase risks of heart defects and pulmonary hypertension in newborns.

Quitting SSRIs triggers brutal withdrawal symptoms (brain zaps, electric shocks, suicidal thoughts), manipulated by Pharma to falsely prove "effectiveness" and create lifelong dependency.

Safer, effective treatments like St. John's Wort, psychotherapy and detox protocols are sidelined while regulators and doctors push dangerous SSRIs for profit over patient well-being.

The public is finally waking up to a long-suppressed truth: SSRI antidepressants like Prozac, Paxil and Zoloft are linked to violent psychotic episodes, including suicide and mass shootings. This disturbing side effect was known during clinical trials but deliberately concealed by pharmaceutical companies and the FDA. Despite receiving 39,000 complaints in Prozac's first nine years on the market, regulators ignored the mounting evidence—until lawsuits forced internal documents into the light, revealing Big Pharma's deception.

While some patients benefit from SSRIs, the reality is that most do not and many suffer horrific consequences. The pharmaceutical industry, driven by profit rather than patient well-being, pushed these drugs onto millions without proper warnings. Today, we know that SSRIs can induce psychosis, emotional numbness, sexual dysfunction and even birth defects—yet doctors still prescribe them recklessly....<<<Read More>>>...

Wales Welcomes You to the Anti-Racist Metaverse – Come and Learn About “White Privilege”

Welsh teenagers are being taught about “white privilege” in an interactive virtual reality world, after the Welsh Government spent more than £1.2 million of taxpayers’ money rolling out a so-called “anti-racist metaverse”. The Telegraph has more.

Pupils are invited to explore a “vast, accessible and immersive 3D metaverse environment” centred on a “grand atrium” adorned with portraits of civil rights campaigners such as Malcolm X, Betty Campbell and Nelson Mandela.

As teenagers pass through the online space, they cross a series of themed areas covering topics including the hardships faced by Romani travellers, the Bosnian genocide and famines in India under British rule.

A “curriculum” room allows pupils to move between conference-style stands where pressing a button opens interactive lessons in “black feminism” and “decolonising politics”.

One of these stands looks at “sociology through an anti-racist lens” and explores “whiteness in language, policies, research and how these and privilege impact social, learning and employment environments”.

Pupils are also invited to use the metaverse to learn about a branch of feminist theory that argues “men have an inherent psychological need to subjugate women”.

Its lessons accuse a former Conservative minister of “dog whistling” over a campaign pamphlet that criticised plans for land to house traveller communities.

The project was started in 2024 as part of an official commitment for Wales to become the world’s first anti-racist country by 2030.

The Welsh Government said the online space was only used in further education colleges, where pupils study for A-levels or apprenticeships and are typically 16–18 years old.

It is said to be the “world’s first anti-racist virtual world”. ...<<<Read More>>>...

Oil is not a fossil fuel; it is the second most prevalent liquid on Earth

“[When] oil went from a lubricant to a fuel [ ] it made it valuable. Rockefeller happened to be the smartest man in the business at the time but he made most of his money, or much of it, off the transport of the petroleum as well as selling it.

“Putting a price on oil is like putting a price on a pail of water, no initial cost, that’s in the ground. And in those days, they were, some of it, almost what you’d call surface mining the oil, they didn’t go down deep. So, in order to get the price up, they hit on the idea that they would have to make it appear to be scarce.

“[Fortuitously] in 1892 there was a convention in Geneva of scientists to determine what organic substances are. Well, the definition of organic is a substance with hydrogen, oxygen and carbon. It’s usually a living substance … At this Geneva convention, Rockefeller took advantage of sending some scientists over who said: ‘Oil, petroleum is hydrogen, oxygen and carbon therefore it must be derived from [ ] the rotting of formerly living matter’.

“When the scientific convention was over, they defined oil as the residue from formerly living matter. Well, that makes it a ‘fossil fuel’.

“There has never been a fossil, a real fossil, found below sixteen thousand feet … We drill for oil at thirty thousand, thirty three thousand, twenty eight thousand, every day of the week. So, right there we rule it out that it isn’t fossil fuel. It’s called fossil fuel for the minds of the public to feel that it is an asset that is running out [and] being depleted.

“If you know the world’s oil supply, you know that it is not going to run out for an awfully long time. It is the second most prevalent liquid on Earth.”....<<<Read More>>>...

How to get to a parallel universe: the answer from physicists may surprise

 If parallel universes exist, then there is at least one way to get to a place that is different from our reality.

So far, the existence of parallel universes is mostly associated with science fiction. But there are scientific theories that suggest that other universes exist. If so, how can we get there?

The existence of parallel universes is suggested by at least two well-known theories in physics. One of them is called the inflation theory and describes an extremely early universe.

Soon after the Big Bang, not one, but a huge number of universes could have been created, which began to expand at an accelerated rate. Moreover, each universe has different physics and distribution of matter.

But getting to other universes is extremely difficult, because they are beyond the visible space and are moving away from us faster than the speed of light.

Another theory, known as the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, says that when some random quantum process occurs, one universe gets one of the possible outcomes, while other universes get other outcomes. This creates a multiverse with all possible quantum outcomes....<<<Read More>>>...

The hidden hunger: Why modern life is leaving us nutrient-depleted and fatigued

 Chronic fatigue and low energy are often linked to widespread deficiencies in key nutrients like Magnesium, Iron, Vitamin D, Zinc and Vitamin C.

Modern diets, soil depletion, processed foods and lifestyle factors have made these deficiencies increasingly common, even among health-conscious individuals.

These nutrients are critical for energy production, immune function, hormone balance and neurological health.

Symptoms of deficiency extend beyond tiredness to include brain fog, frequent illness, muscle cramps, mood changes and poor recovery.

Addressing deficiencies requires a focus on nutrient-dense whole foods and, in many cases, targeted supplementation under professional guidance.

In an era of abundant food, a silent epidemic of nutrient deficiencies is undermining the health and vitality of millions. Despite access to a greater variety of foods than ever before, many individuals are chronically tired, mentally foggy and susceptible to illness due to a lack of essential vitamins and minerals. Health professionals and nutrition researchers are increasingly pointing to deficiencies in magnesium, iron, vitamin D, zinc and vitamin C as key culprits behind persistent fatigue. This widespread "hidden hunger" stems not from a lack of calories, but from depleted soils, processed diets and modern lifestyles that strip the body of its fundamental building blocks for energy and resilience....<<<Read More>>>....

Britain Needs “Reality Check” Over Electric Car Targets, Warns Hyundai

 Britain’s electric vehicle targets threaten “severe disruption” that could prompt some carmakers to abandon the UK, the European boss of Hyundai has warned. The Telegraph has the story.

Xavier Martinet, President of the carmaker’s European arm, claimed the Government’s zero emission vehicle (ZEV) mandate no longer made sense and needed to be rethought.

Without change, he said the policy could cause manufacturers to become loss-making and prompt some to stop selling both internal combustion engine (ICE) and electric cars in the UK.

Britain is Hyundai’s biggest market in Europe. UK drivers bought more than 93,000 of the marque’s cars last year.

Under the ZEV mandate, carmakers must ensure 33% of the vehicles they sell are electric or potentially face fines of up to £12,000 per vehicle. The proportion rises gradually to 80% by 2030, when the sale of new petrol and diesel cars will also be banned.

Some flexibilities have been built into the scheme already following concessions by Labour. But to comply with the stretching targets the industry is still having to spend around £11,000 per car on discounts, Martinet said.

Many manufacturers have said they are being forced to subsidise the discounts on EVs with sales from petrol and diesel cars.

Martinet told the Telegraph: “The UK market is in danger of having a severe disruption in the coming years, because if some manufacturers cannot afford or decide not to push the EV mandate, you’ll have an issue.

“And if you don’t sell EVs, you might not do even do the ICE sales. So what will customers buy, at the end of the day? That’s a major question.” …<<<Read More>>>...

The Great Oil Conspiracy: The Conclusion

“It is time to end the cover-up and misinformation that has prevented the American public from knowing the truth about oil – that hydrocarbon fuels are abiotic in nature, produced by the earth naturally on a continuous basis, and that the quantity of abiotic hydrocarbons yet to be discovered suggests the world will never run out of oil or natural gas”—Jerome Corsi, The Great Oil Conspiracy

Air renews itself naturally, as does water. Why should oil or natural gas be different? The scenario of a modern industrial society, doomed to outlive the affordable hydrocarbon fuels that have made economic growth and prosperity possible, is consistent with a secular society desperate to replace God and Divine Providence with central planning imposed by a crushing state bureaucratic apparatus. In the 1950s, Sinclair Oil sold gasoline to motorists under a logo that featured a green dinosaur, while Shell Oil employed an executive who sought to prove the end of “fossil fuels” was at hand by adapting the graph of a normal distribution that is taught to every Statistics 101 college student. More than sixty years later, the world still has abundant hydrocarbon fuels, even though Sinclair Oil has dropped the dinosaur logo.

Major oil companies appear ready to drop fossil fuel illusions. A Shell Oil executive has expressed doubt on national television that peak production theory is correct. “The peak oil theory has really swamped the world,” John Hofmeister, then the president of Shell Oil’s US operations, said on CNBC’s Squawk Box show on March 20, 2008. “God Bless Matt Simmons. His assumptions are correct based on his hypotheses, but his hypotheses are too narrow.”134 This is a remarkable admission from the company that produced M. King Hubbert. There is no reason America should be dependent upon foreign sources for oil. There is no reason we should be paying exorbitant amounts for a gallon of gasoline at the pump. Allowed to do their job without unnecessary government intervention, independent producers in conjunction with major oil companies should be able to provide Americans with an abundant supply of inexpensive energy for decades to come, especially if Americans are finally told the truth that oil and natural gas are not now and never were fossil fuels....<<<Read More>>>...

Keeping Your Mind Focused

 Excuses may seem like rational reasons for us not to do something, but if we’re not careful, we can allow them to keep us from reaching our goals. Too often we accept our excuses as reasons why we cannot accomplish what we set out to do, and instead of finding alternatives, we give up. But if we can be honest with ourselves and take responsibility for our choices, we will begin to notice that we no longer give excuses. When we keep our minds focused on our goals, we will find that excuses fade away in the light of our priorities, and issues become challenges that can help us become wiser and stronger.

Sometimes we may give others excuses rather than being fully honest. We may think it is kind to tell someone we are willing to do something with them, whether work or play, but then keep putting them off. This diverts our energy into keeping the truth at a distance while continuing a falsehood. When we can take responsibility for our feelings and express them honestly but gently, the other person is free to find someone who is better suited to accompany them while we are free to pursue the things we like.

There’s another way in which excuses rob us of energy — and that is in the power of our thoughts and words. For example, if we find ourselves in a situation where we are being asked for a financial contribution, but we use the excuse that we can’t afford it, we create and attract lack and limitation into our lives. The same goes for seemingly simple things like pretending to not feel well or any other false statement. We may think that excuses make things easier, but they complicate matters with smokescreens. When we can commit to our priorities, take responsibility for our choices, and communicate them honestly to others, there will be no need to make excuses, and we will have much more energy to dedicate to all the things we love.

The Forbidden 1357 Manuscript That Proves Tartaria Was Erased From History

The EV Car Crash

 With the ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars less than four years away now, there remains one seemingly insurmountable obstacle: nobody wants to buy electric cars.

Last year, sales of EVs achieved a market share of just 23.43%. Newly released figures for last month show this fell to 20.6%. The Government has set a target this year of 33%, rising to 66% in 2029.

Once petrol and diesel cars (known as ICE vehicles, short for Internal Combustion Engine) are banned in 2030, zero emission cars must make up at least 80% of the market, with the rest filled with hybrids. However, the latter will also be gradually phased out by 2035. Zero emission essentially means battery-electric, although hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles would also qualify.

To enforce the switch to EVs, the government introduced the ZEV (Zero Emission Vehicle) mandate. Motor manufacturers who fail to hit their ZEV target for the year must either buy credits from manufacturers who have exceeded targets or pay a fine of £15,000 for every car below target.

There are certain allowances available, but these are not significant. The only other option open to manufacturers who fall short is to carry forward their deficit, in the hope they are in surplus in a year or two time. Understandably, this has been likened to taking out a payday loan!...<<<Read More>>>.....

Jeffrey Epstein’s secret eugenics plan: Breeding a “superior” human race with his DNA

 Jeffrey Epstein planned to "seed the human race with his DNA" by impregnating 20 women at a time at his New Mexico ranch, echoing historical eugenics movements.

Newly released DOJ documents expose Epstein's disturbing obsession with racial pseudoscience, including debunked theories about modifying Black intelligence and fixations on blue eyes as a supposed marker of intellect.

Epstein funded transhumanist projects, including Harvard's Program for Evolutionary Dynamics, and discussed financing a secret "designer-baby project" while joking about cloning himself with Prince Andrew.

Epstein screened young women at lavish parties to participate in his New Mexico breeding program, inspired by a 1980s Nobel sperm bank, though the plan was never fully realized before his death.

Epstein's ties to scientists, financiers and powerful figures raise alarming questions about who else shared or enabled his dystopian vision, revealing how unchecked wealth and power fuel dangerous ideologies.

The already disturbing saga of Jeffrey Epstein took a darker turn in August 2019 when reports surfaced that the convicted sex offender had ambitions to "seed the human race with his DNA." According to the New York Times, Epstein planned to impregnate 20 women at a time at his New Mexico ranch, a scheme that echoed historical eugenics movements.

EU Censorship Threatens Free Speech Beyond Europe, Warns US

 On 5 February, the battle over online free speech took a decisive international turn. In a warning aimed squarely at European regulators, US lawmakers accused the EU of exporting censorship to American citizens through pressure placed on US-based technology companies.

What began as a regulatory disagreement has evolved into a broader confrontation over sovereignty and constitutional values.

Epstein’s Cloning Facility!

There are dozens of theories circulating about Jeffrey Epstein, many of which suggest that what the public was shown represents only a fraction of a much larger and even more disturbing picture. 

My own awareness of these theories began through a conversation with my friend Richard Willits, who had been tracking inconsistencies in the public record. Shortly afterward, my wife also came across information that appeared to reinforce his concerns.

According to several independent researchers, Epstein wasn’t acting alone and his activities extended beyond predatory behavior and into a coordinated attempt to control human replication itself. Central to these theories is the claim that he was pursuing human cloning, not as scientific curiosity, but as a practical, iterative process tied to long-term observation.

At Zorro Ranch, a privately owned compound later seized by authorities, Epstein was allegedly developing a hybrid program that combined forced pregnancies with early-stage cloning research. The pregnancies weren’t intended solely to produce offspring, but to observe how cloned genomes expressed traits across different gestational and environmental conditions, effectively creating rolling genetic classes for study. Perhaps the most disturbing aspect concerns the selection criteria for subjects, with individuals chosen as young as 12 years old and based on perceived genetic desirability.

These same sources allege that he secretly funded research into synthetic biology, cellular replication, behavioral conditioning and trauma-based compliance. The institutions named were Harvard, MIT and Stanford, with funding routed through layered foundations, designed to conceal both the origin and the purpose of the research.

Another recurring element of the theory involves the systematic collection of biological material. Individuals who came into contact with Epstein were allegedly studied, sampled and logged. DNA was extracted, catalogued and preserved, sometimes followed by the individual’s disappearance from all official records altogether! Several accounts describe forced pregnancies occurring alongside laboratory-based cloning trials, suggesting an attempt to compare natural gestation with artificial replication using identical genetic templates...<<<Read More>>>....

Zombie Bird Drones: When Taxidermy Takes Flight

 In a development that feels ripped from a science fiction thriller, researchers at New Mexico Tech have created “zombie bird drones”—real taxidermied birds fitted with robotics that allow them to fly again. Reports from Gizmodo and The Sun confirm that pigeons, ducks, and pheasants are being reanimated into remote-controlled flying machines, sparking awe, unease, and heated debate online.

These uncanny drones look indistinguishable from living birds, raising questions about the future of surveillance, environmental research, and ethics in technology.

According to The Sun, engineers start with ethically sourced deceased birds. Inside, they install a lightweight electronic system that powers mechanical wing flaps and navigation controls. Some models feature hidden cameras inside the bird’s neck, while others use shape-memory alloy claws that allow the drone to perch on branches or power lines like a real bird.

This level of camouflage is impossible for traditional drones, making these reanimated flyers uniquely suited for stealth missions—or disturbingly hard to detect....<<<Read More>>>....

Cozy up with confidence: Warm beverages hydrate just like water does

 Coffee and tea are now recognized as effective sources of daily hydration.Moderate caffeine consumption does not disrupt the body's fluid balance.

Milk may hydrate better than water due to its electrolytes and nutrients.

Herbal teas are excellent caffeine-free options for maintaining hydration. Alternating warm drinks with plain water is the ideal daily strategy.

This winter, forget everything you think you know about hydration. Research confirms your morning coffee or afternoon tea isn't just a comforting ritual; it's a legitimate source of hydration that can stand toe-to-toe with a glass of water. This groundbreaking shift debunks a long-held myth and offers a practical, enjoyable strategy for maintaining fluid balance, especially during colder months when reaching for ice water feels less appealing.

For decades, the conventional wisdom has been clear: caffeine is a diuretic, and therefore caffeinated drinks like coffee and tea dehydrate you. Health advice has often strictly emphasized plain water as the only true source of proper hydration. This has led many to guiltily discount their daily cups of coffee or tea from their fluid intake tally. However, a body of scientific evidence now firmly contradicts this outdated notion, revealing that moderate consumption of these warm beverages contributes effectively to daily hydration needs....<<<Read More>>>....

The Wi-Fi and Mobile Phone Cancer Debate Heats Up

 Your smartphone, your Wi-Fi, your smart meter, your iPad and much else all use radio-frequency radiation (RFR), but do you know what physical effect this is having on your and your family’s health? Where will you find the truth? Although we only ever hear publicly that RFR “should” be safe, a glimpse behind the scenes reveals a raging battle amongst scientists in an attempt to control the narrative.

This struggle comes at a time when the governments of the world are awaiting the forthcoming WHO Environmental Health Criteria monograph, which will pronounce on the health risks or otherwise of exposure to electromagnetic fields including RFR. Even more critical is the upcoming possible reclassification of RFR as a probable cancer risk by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). The stakes could not be higher.

At the centre of this battle are Meike Mevissen on one side and Ken Karipidis on the other. They are the lead authors of two of the 12 systematic reviews commissioned by the WHO EMF Project on the health effects of radio-frequency radiation (RFR). Only one of these 12 reviews was considered by experts from the International Commission on the Biological Effects of Electromagnetic Fields (ICBE-EMF) to be well-executed, and this was the one by Mevissen et al., which concluded that there is high certainty evidence that RF-EMF exposure increases the incidence of malignant schwannomas (heart tumours) and gliomas (brain tumours) in rats, with moderate certainty evidence of an increased risk of rare tumours in the adrenal glands and in the liver. This RF-EMF is just the same type of radiation that is emitted by your phone and that you hold to your head and keep in your pocket, and that is constantly by your side....<<<Read More>>>....

Editing Your Life

 Our lives are like an in-process movie script that we have complete creative control over. We have the power to examine what is or isn’t working in our lives and make edits to our life’s script accordingly. Choosing to actively edit your life can be incredibly empowering. As you evolve, you have the choice to accept the script you’ve written thus far, or you can edit it to create a life that fulfills you. Acknowledging that you are responsible for the experience you create gives you the ability to make the life you’ve always longed for.

Granted, editing your real life isn’t always as easy as deleting a line of text. If you’ve carried emotional baggage or held on to an unhealthy relationship for a long time, these may be difficult to edit out. But when you eliminate what isn’t working from your life, you’ll feel lighter and more alive. Editing out activities that you find stressful, disassociating yourself from people who drain your energy, and letting go of your emotional baggage are all beneficial cuts you can make.

To begin editing your life, simply think about your positive and negative experiences. When you determine what parts of your life are no longer serving you, make the commitment to remove them. It is important to remember that there is no proper timing or way to do this, and patience and compassion for yourself are always important during this process. Then, ask yourself what has brought you profound bliss, and consider how you can make those experiences and beliefs part of your life now. With a little editing, you’ll be able to clear out what isn’t working in your life and make room for more happiness, love, and wisdom. (Daily OM)

Nipah Virus Triggers Another Bout of Hysteria in the Media

 A large outbreak of hysteria occurred in the media over the past week regarding a small Nipah virus outbreak in eastern India. ‘Hysteria’ is the correct word in terms of proportionality. It is not, unfortunately, the right word in terms of intent. Ten years ago this episode of Nipah virus disease would barely have rated a mention internationally, and certainly not stimulated airport screening and travel warnings – there have been many larger outbreaks of Nipah virus than this one which did not.

The change over recent years is not that people have lost their minds. It relates to the adoption of the fear-panic-profit model that has entrenched itself in international public health. Tens of billions in annual funding are on the table, and they depend – with the thousands of salaries and exorbitant Pharma profits tied to the pandemic industry – on the maintenance of a constant sense of imminent threat.

The World Health Organisation reports two cases from this Nipah outbreak, which is fewer than usual. As is common, they involve health service personnel, a group that is often infected by the virus before the diagnosis is clear in the patients they care for. Nipah virus infection historically has a high mortality rate among those infected, and each death is a tragedy, especially in those who are infected through caring for others. The deliberate hysteria and fearmongering these cases are being used to promote will kill lots more, because they divert resources from programmes aimed at far worse health problems. But using small recurrent outbreaks to promote fear is a business case that is too attractive to too many. This Nipah outbreak is simply its latest iteration....<<<Read More>>>...

Zinc helps regenerate your aging immune system’s command center

Zinc is a critical mineral for immune function, directly supporting antibody production, T-cell activity and thymus gland health.Deficiency in zinc, common with age, leads to a shrunken thymus, reduced T-cell output and increased susceptibility to infections.

Research shows zinc supplementation can regenerate the thymus gland by up to 80% in animal models, reversing age-related immune decline.

Scientists have identified a specific molecular pathway (GPR39) through which zinc signals the thymus to repair and regenerate itself.

Ensuring adequate zinc intake through diet or targeted supplementation is a promising strategy for bolstering immune resilience, particularly in older adults.

For decades, zinc has been a staple in the cold remedy aisle, but emerging science reveals its role is far more profound. Groundbreaking research is now illuminating how this essential trace mineral acts as a master regulator of immunity, with a particular power to rejuvenate a key organ that typically withers with age: the thymus gland. This discovery, spearheaded by institutions like the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, offers a compelling narrative for why maintaining zinc levels is not merely about fending off a seasonal sniffle, but potentially about restoring the foundational vigor of an aging immune system. The implications span from improving recovery in medical patients to empowering healthy aging for the general population....<<<Read More>>>....

Labour Paying Hospitals £3 Million a Month to Delete Patients from Waiting Lists

 Labour is paying hospitals £3 million a month to delete patients from waiting lists – making it look like the NHS is treating more people than it is. The Mail has the story.

Sir Keir Starmer and Wes Streeting have repeatedly boasted about Labour’s success in cutting the number of patients waiting for treatment since they came to power.

But new analysis of NHS figures suggests hundreds of thousands are being deleted from lists without receiving the treatment they were waiting for in a process known as ‘list cleansing’ or ‘validation’.

It involves paying consultants to trawl their backlog to look for patients who may have died or no longer need or want the procedure they were waiting for.

NHS England paid hospital trusts a total of £18,818,566 for validation exercises between April and September last year.

The organisation said trusts were paid about £33 for each patient removed from the list, suggesting more than half a million were deleted through the validation process in six months alone.

A source in the last government told the Times that Rishi Sunak had vetoed a plan by the NHS to conduct a similar exercise when he was prime minister because it involved paying the organisation for “doing something it should be doing anyway”.

They added that “artificially” reducing the waiting list gave a misleading impression of the NHS’s performance.

Experts also warned of the risk of patients being taken off lists when they still needed care.

Two weeks ago the Prime Minister claimed figures showed that NHS waiting lists were down by “more than 86,000”, which was the “largest fall in a month for over two years”.

“These aren’t just numbers – it is thousands of people getting the care they need,” he said.

However, this drop was only achieved by removing thousands of patients from the waiting list through the ‘validation’ process.

In November – the month that Starmer was referring to – 346,300 were removed from NHS waiting lists. This was 82,000 more than the month before and almost the entire claimed drop.

However, NHS data also show hospitals carried out about 10% fewer operations and appointments in November than they did in October, suggesting fewer people were being treated....<<<Read More>>>....

Some may wonder how the same narrative on certain topics, such as false narratives about US President Donald Trump’s speech on 6 January 2021, reverberates across the world – from Canada to Australia. It isn’t only because the BBC has a global audience. It is also because of the BBC-led global coalition called the Trusted News Initiative.

The Trusted News Initiative (“TNI”) is an international alliance of major news media, social media and technology companies founded by the BBC in 2019 to combat “disinformation.” The initiative was launched following the BBC’s Trusted News Summit in June 2019, in response to concerns about misinformation during the Indian general election.

Led by Jessica Cecil, a senior BBC executive, the TNI operates a real-time alert system allowing member organisations to rapidly share information about harmful disinformation that threatens public safety or democratic processes. Members include the Associated Press, Reuters, Meta (Facebook), Google/YouTube, Twitter, Microsoft and others.

“TNI also has an Asia-Pacific sister initiative that is partnered with media organisations including ABC Australia and NHK Japan,”...<<<Read More>>>...

Man Reveals Aliens Tried To Abduct Him: Long-term Neurological Damage

 A Reddit user “andyblaze6” spoke about how, after an attempted abduction by aliens and persecution of UFOs, he developed a whole complex of diseases and he barely survived this period.

“In early 2019 to late 2019 when I was 24 I began working as a security gaurd on a coal mine surface mine I rural West Virginia. The mine was located about 35 miles up a mountain on a mountain top removal site where blasting had previously occurred years ago. My shift started at 7 pm until 7 am.

“My job was basically to drive a security van along the surface of the mine and surrounding areas to look for intruders who may have been trying to sneak onto the mining property and steal things such as copper, mining equipment and tools ect. Driving to the top of the mine took me about 25 minutes.

“The radius was about 150-200 square miles that belonged to the company. Some of it was mountain top removal sites but most of it was wooded areas with old abandoned logging roads. It was quite legitimately “the middle of no where in the woods”. I had little to no cell phone service.

“The area I guarded was a 30 mile radius of logging road. The road overlooked a large mountain ridge. I worked safely and freely on the site for around 6 months before any strange occurrences happened....<<<Read More>>>....

How Fear Blocks Creativity

 To understand how fear blocks creativity, take a moment to imagine yourself telling a story. First, imagine telling the story to someone you love and who loves you. You probably feel warmth and energy as you fill in the details of your tale to your friend’s delight. Now, imagine telling the same story to someone who, for whatever reason, makes you uncomfortable. The wonderful twists and turns, the fine points and colorful images that unfolded in your mind for your friend probably won’t present themselves. Instead of warmth, energy, and creativity, you will probably feel opposite sensations and a desire to close down. When we feel unsafe, whether we fear being judged, disliked, or misunderstood, our creative flow stops. Alternately, when we feel safe, our creativity unfolds like a beautiful flower, without conscious effort.

Knowing this, we can maximize our creative potential by creating the conditions that inspire our creativity. In order to really be in the flow, we need to feel safe and unrestricted. However, achieving this is not as simple as avoiding people who make us feel uncomfortable. Sometimes we can be alone in a room and still feel totally blocked. When this happens, we know we have come up against elements in our own psyches that are making us feel fearful. Perhaps we are afraid that in expressing ourselves we will discover something we don’t want to know, or unleash emotions or ideas that we don’t want to be responsible for. Or maybe we’re afraid we’ll fail to produce something worthy.

When you’re up against fear, internal or external, a ritual can be a powerful — and creative — antidote. Before you sit down to be creative, try casting a circle of protection around yourself. Visualize yourself inside a ring of light, protective fire, or angels. Imagine that this protective energy emanates unconditional love for you and wants to hear, see, and feel everything you have to express. Take a moment to bathe in the warmth of this feeling, and then fearlessly surrender yourself to the power that flows through you....<<<Read More>>>...

Rural Britain Needs To Be Less White

 Whatever Next! Britain is a WHITE country. We do not want any more dilution of the true Brits ... it has gone far enough .... 

++++++++++++++++++++++

Anyone who has watched the hit Netflix show Bridgerton might have raised an eyebrow or two at the sight of an elegant Georgian England that bears little or no resemblance to the historical reality. The line-up of characters features a dramatic display of ethnically diverse characters that serves almost as a parody of the tick-box casting the BBC has recently been told to stop indulging in.

Reinventing the past for the sake of entertainment, however misleading, is one thing. Now it seems the present is to be reinvented too.

The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has put together plans to diversify the countryside and make it “less white”, according to the Telegraph, though perhaps it should be called the “Bridgertonisation” of rural Britain:

The plans follow Defra-commissioned reports that claimed the countryside would become “irrelevant” in a multicultural society, as it was a “white environment” principally enjoyed by the “white middle class”.

National Landscapes – previously called areas of outstanding natural beauty (AONB) – and their local councils have since committed to a number of diversity targets.

The Chilterns National Landscape team has set out proposals that include community outreach schemes to attract more Muslims to the area, particularly from nearby Luton.

More diverse staff will be recruited, marketing material will be produced featuring people visibly from ethnic minorities, and written in “community languages”.

Research has also been commissioned to support this work, some of which suggests that dogs should be kept under tighter control, as some groups are scared of them....<<<Read More>>>...
