Opening Doors of Opportunity

 When a door opens, walk through them. Trust that the door has opened for a reason, and you have been guided to it. Sometimes we have a tendency to overanalyze or agonize over the decision, but it is quicker to simply go through the door and discover what’s there as that’s the only way to know. Even if it doesn’t seem right at first, opening this door may lead to another door that will take us where we need to go.

Doors open when the time is right for us to enter a new space, metaphorically speaking, and we can have faith that walking through is the right thing to do. Sometimes we linger in the threshold because we are afraid of leaving our old life for a life we know nothing about. We may have voices inside of our heads that try to hold us back or people in our lives saying discouraging things. These voices, internal and external, are known as threshold spirits, and they express all the fears and doubts that arise at the beginning of a new life. Nevertheless, none of these voices can hold us back, and they will fall silent as soon as we cross the threshold.

There are many doors that open in the course of our lives, leading us into new relationships, jobs, friendships, and creative inspirations. Our lives up to this point are the result of all the doors we have walked through, and our continued growth depends on our willingness to keep moving into new spaces. Every time we walk through an open door, we create a sense memory that encourages us to move into the new fearlessly. When we enter the new space, we almost always feel a thrill and a new feeling of confidence, in ourselves and in the universe. We have stepped across the threshold into a new life (Daily OM)

No one needs folic acid fortification

 The British government plans to add synthetic folic acid to all white flour sold in the UK from December 2026, despite concerns that it may be injurious to health.

Dr. Clare Craig argues that there is no evidence of a widespread folate deficiency in the UK population, and that adding folic acid to flour is not correcting a deficiency but rather acting like a drug.

From 13 December 2026, the UK government is mandating mass medication of the public with synthetic folic acid added to non-wholemeal wheat flour. Dr. Clare Craig has been publishing a series of articles to explain what we need to know about folic acid.

In 1875, the UK Parliament made it a criminal offence to adulterate flour. The Sale of Food and Drugs Act of that year was written in answer to a scandal that had been building for decades. Bakers bulked out their flour with alum, chalk and plaster of Paris, and on occasion with sawdust.

In 1861, Dr. Edward Lankester told the Royal Society of Arts that 87 per cent of the bread and 74 per cent of the milk sold in London was adulterated. The Act was intended to end all adulteration; its long title promised “better provision for the Sale of Food and Drugs in a pure state”.

Section 3 made it an offence to “mix… any article of food with any ingredient or material so as to render the article injurious to health”, with a second conviction punishable by being “imprisoned for a period not exceeding six months with hard labour.”

Section 6 forbade selling any food “not of the nature, substance, and quality of the article demanded.”

The principle was that you do not tamper with the staple food of the nation.

One hundred and fifty-one years later, the British government is about to add a substance known to be injurious to health – folic acid – to our flour....<<<Read More>>>....

Google’s Search Dominance Faces Challenges from AI Competition and User Backlash

 Google maintains approximately 90% of the global search market, according to industry estimates, and its parent company Alphabet Inc. has seen its stock price more than double in the past year. Revenue growth in the first quarter was the fastest since 2022.

However, the emergence of generative artificial intelligence (AI) and shifting user preferences are creating new pressures on the company's core search business. DuckDuckGo, a privacy-focused search engine, reported a surge in installs following Google's May 2026 announcement that it would overhaul search with an AI agent.

Microsoft's Bing reached 1 billion users for the first time last quarter. Google's own search engine traffic declined more than 1% in the past month, according to data from Ahrefs, while ChatGPT traffic increased. These developments indicate that Google's long-standing dominance is facing mounting challenges from AI-powered rivals and a segment of users seeking alternatives to AI-driven search....<<<Read More>>>...

New Hope in the Battle Against Digital Surveillance and Control

 A stricter version of Australia’s social media ban – the first in the world – has been announced in the UK, with device-level surveillance similar to spyware and ID verification for all smartphone users. As governments around the world are following suit, the digital dilemma crystallises into some very practical questions most of us will soon have to face.

Digital ID is on the doorstep, bringing the prospect of unprecedented tracking of our actions and the possibility of being excluded from services we need and like. If you’ve realised that simply giving in and going along will only create more problems – the compliance fallacy – considering the steps to take, both on an individual and collective level, is unavoidable.

And there’s some good news: a new digital rights movement is coming into being.

Refusal is the first and most obvious response. Without personal information from the majority of the population, digital ID systems simply can’t work. But non-compliance is more complex than just saying no and forcing the authorities to back down. Though, following the public outcry, the Government has shelved plans for mandatory digital ID, it’s continuing to introduce digital ID by stealth, working group by group, gradually taking more and more of us into its net. The main examples in the UK are the digitalisation of passport and driving licence applications and the tax system.

Refusing to participate in these systems is fairly straightforward. It involves sticking to paper systems which public bodies have to provide because there are millions of people in the UK who lack access to computers, phone or who don’t have the skills to navigate digital systems. Paper forms and a trip to the Post Office avoid the need to use an online account.

The demand by Companies House that company directors must verify their identity digitally, a process which involves giving a 3D scan of your face – proper biometrics of the kind used in facial recognition – is of a different order since compulsion is involved. It’s a clear breach of the principle of consent, a kind of data version of vaccine passports. But since it’s backed by law, refusal calls for a deeper level of non-compliance. And so the new digital coercion generates a complex and evolving picture as people respond in different ways to a new kind of threat....<<<Read More>>>..

The Government is Ignoring the Harms of Smartphone Radiation

 Should the Government really ban social media for under-16s? The recent debate on the negative effects on children of smartphones and screens has aroused strong feelings on all sides, but some highly relevant facts have been completely ignored.

Armed with recent research on the behavioural effects of engaging electronically, as well as the damaging effects of social media content, campaigners such as Health Professionals for Safer Screens have been making their voices heard in Parliament and now a social media ban has been announced. But the objections to this are many: children could easily circumvent the ban; it might be seen as unwanted state interference in matters which concern parents only; the need for age verification may make it easier for the Government to sneak in digital ID.

My question is: is proper debate really possible, when certain facts have been completely and consistently swept under the carpet? The facts I refer to are the result of decades of scientific research which suggest that electromagnetic fields (EMFs), including wireless radiation from smartphones and other sources, have a negative impact on health. Politicians seem averse to engaging with the scientific evidence on this.

Six years ago, for example, the Broadband and Road to 5G inquiry, set up by the Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Committee, invited submissions and received 147 of them. In its report, the committee seemed to imply that the negative health effects of EMFs detailed in 78 of these submissions were “conspiracy theories” and, though robust evidence was cited in most submissions, the committee failed to report on them and was content to ignore 51% of the written evidence (more details here). When there is clear evidence of health risks, why will policymakers not engage?

Now, however, there is another chance for politicians to engage with robust, modern and independent science that might, admittedly, stand in the way of their goals, but is, in fact, crucial for public health protection....<<<Read More>>>...

Scientists confirm: Sodium-ion batteries could topple Tesla’s lithium empire

 

A study in Cell Reports Physical Science confirmed that Hina's commercial sodium-ion battery matches the performance and production quality of Tesla's lithium-ion batteries.

Sodium-ion technology offers cheap, abundant materials derived from salt, eliminating the need for rare and conflict-ridden minerals like lithium, cobalt and nickel.

The Hina battery, available in a 9.8 kWh unit, boasts a 95% round-trip efficiency and a 6,500-cycle lifespan, outperforming most lithium-iron-phosphate batteries with superior thermal stability.

Despite its advantages, the Hina battery struggles to charge effectively at sub-zero temperatures and shows unexpectedly high, unevenly distributed levels of copper in cathode regions.

Researchers are optimistic about overcoming these hurdles, planning to focus on improving low-temperature charging and optimizing carbon-based anodes and electrolyte formulations.

In what could be a seismic shift in the global energy storage landscape, a groundbreaking new study published in Cell Reports Physical Science has confirmed that a commercial sodium-ion battery produced by Chinese company Hina matches the performance and production quality of Tesla;s vaunted lithium-ion batteries. 

The findings – released on the heels of growing unease over resource wars and environmental destruction tied to lithium mining – suggest that the era of cheap, abundant and geopolitically stable energy storage may have finally arrived. Researchers at RWTH Aachen University in Germany, led by battery scientist Moritz Schutte, conducted a rigorous battery of tests – including impedance spectroscopy, X-ray imaging and full disassembly – on 120 Hina sodium-ion cells.

What they found stunned even the research team....<<<Read More>>>...

The Government’s Latest Censorship Initiative is its Most Sinister Yet

 Over the last few months, free speech activists have been perturbed by proposals to age-gate social media for under-16s. Meantime, whilst all eyes were looking elsewhere, the Government has just slipped out a new raft of proposals which would profoundly reshape the online media landscape in the UK. In my view, whereas the impact of the proposed social media restrictions for kids on the free speech rights of adults has been overstated, this new initiative poses a far greater and invidious threat to our freedom of speech and access to information.

The proposals are contained in a Green Paper, published this week, called ‘Watch This Space’. Described by Ian Murray, the Minister for Creative Industries, Media and Art, as setting out a “new strategic direction” for the Government’s media policy, the new measures would require social media companies to prioritise content from ‘traditional’ so-called public service broadcasters – the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5 and so on – over that of independent media outlets. This would therefore (although this is not spelt out expressly in the paper) de-prioritise, i.e., suppress, content from independent content creators. The effect would be to rewire the algorithms according to which content is delivered to our social media feeds. It would take us from content driven by preference and audience demand towards a system structurally hardwired and legally obliged to direct us to traditional media brands – the very titles that such a large proportion of the public have turned away from.

Given that some 70% of all UK news content is now read digitally, the impact of these measures on the online public square and on the ability of UK audiences to access information sources of their choosing can hardly be overstated....<<<Read More>>>...

The Global Civilization That Was Erased 12,000 Years Ago

 

 

 Twelve thousand years ago, the world reorganized catastrophically. Temperatures in Greenland collapsed by up to 14 degrees in a single year. At least 35 species of large animals vanished from North America almost overnight. And 27 million square kilometers of coastline — the size of Africa — disappeared under 120 meters of rising ocean. What was on those coastlines when the water came is a question science has never fully closed. This video examines the Younger Dryas event, the impact hypothesis, the mystery of Göbekli Tepe, and what the submerged archaeological record may still be hiding.

The Rape Gang Inquiry Report: The state not only ignored whistle-blowers; it punished them

 The Rape Gang Inquiry heard testimonies from whistle-blowers who said that they were silenced, discredited and punished by authorities for exposing the rape gangs and their crimes.

Punishment of whistle-blowers included suspension, defamation proceedings, dawn raids and imprisonment.

Meanwhile, members of Muslim rape gangs, which the establishment likes to refer to as “grooming gangs,” were allowed to continue offending with little to no consequence.

Last year, Rupert Lowe MP (Restore Britain) launched a campaign to raise funds to hold an independent national inquiry into the UK’s Muslim rape gangs. This year, the victim-led Rape Gang Inquiry was held, during which testimonies from victims, parents, carers, politicians, a variety of experts and whistle-blowers were heard over ten days, from 2 February to 12 February.

On 16 June 2026, the Inquiry released its report. “The Rape Gang Inquiry has now concluded the first phase of its work,” the report states, and notes the “next steps” on page 179. “This report sets out findings and makes clear recommendations for how the problem of rape gangs can be eradicated.”

“Every witness who volunteered their testimony – whether survivor, parent, whistle-blower, politician or expert – showed courage that made this Inquiry possible,” the report acknowledged.

“Police forces ignored repeated reports, criminalised victims instead of perpetrators, destroyed evidence, and allowed known rapists to walk free on bail. Social care services undermined protective parents, placed children in trafficking hubs inside children’s homes, closed cases despite clear indicators of exploitation, and retaliated against whistle-blowers.”

Speaking of abusive police action. Not only have police criminalised the victims, but there have been instances where police have targeted parents while they are trying to rescue their children from the rape gangs...<<<Read More>>>...

Quieting Our Triggers

 Big emotions can rise so quickly that we rarely have time to understand where they came from. In the moment, it can feel like the frustration, fear, sadness, or anger is only about what just happened — the comment someone made, the mistake that was overlooked, or the way we felt dismissed or unseen. Before we know it, we may react, shut down, spiral, or look outside ourselves for the reason we feel so overwhelmed, without realizing there may be something much older beneath the surface.

Often, these emotional reactions are connected to deep-rooted triggers. When we go through a painful, overwhelming, or threatening experience, the body remembers. Even long after the moment has passed, the nervous system can hold the imprint of what once felt unsafe, creating patterns that get activated whenever something in the present echoes the past. This is why a small interaction can sometimes create a response that feels much bigger than the situation itself.

Healing begins when we learn to meet these emotions with curiosity instead of judgment. Rather than asking, “What’s wrong with me?” we can begin asking, “What is this feeling trying to show me?” With awareness, compassion, and body-based practices, we can start to understand the roots of our reactions, soften old protective patterns, and create more space between what triggers us and how we choose to respond.

Electric London Bus Bursts into Flames During Heatwave

 

An electric London bus has burst into flames during the June heatwave, destroying it and two electric charging points and forcing a nearby Tube station to close, with smoke visible for miles around. The Telegraph has more.

Footage captured the double-decker on fire at a bus depot in Westbourne Park, west London, on Wednesday evening. The bus and two electric charging points were destroyed in the blaze.

Workers could be seen watching in shock as flames tore through the No. 23 bus, which goes between Westbourne Park and Aldwych. The cause of the fire is under investigation.

More than two dozen firemen tackled the fire at the depot on Great Western Road. It was extinguished in less than an hour.

In a statement, London Fire Brigade said: “The fire involved a double-decker electric bus, which was destroyed by the fire. Two electric vehicle charging points were also destroyed. There are no reports of any injuries.

“The Brigade was first called about the fire at 6.23pm, and crews had the incident under control by 7.11pm. Firefighters will remain on scene into the evening. Crews from North Kensington and Paddington fire stations attended the scene.”

Smoke could be seen for miles around, including from Lord’s cricket ground, where England women were taking on the West Indies in the T20 World Cup....<<<Read More>>>...

Why Virology Is the Greatest Psyop of Our Time

We consider it likely this post will not remain for very long as it possibly will offend the Blogger Community ... and therefore because it contravenes their guidelines on truth about vaccines, it will be removed. Keep note of the link at the bottom of the article ....

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

The myth of infectious disease caused by viruses is the most successful psychological operation ever waged against humanity. It is not a science -- it is a belief system propped up by circular reasoning, censorship, and institutional intimidation.

Mainstream search engines and AI engines now refuse to answer simple questions like “List the common symptoms of arsenic poisoning and Ebola.” When I tested this, the AI called my query “unethical.” Here’s why this matters: if the story of contagious viruses were true, there would be no need to hide such basic comparisons.

The entire germ theory of disease rests on the claim that invisible entities jump from person to person, causing illness. Yet as Dr. Thomas Cowan and Sally Fallon Morell document in their book “The Contagion Myth,” no one has ever satisfied Koch’s postulates for any so-called virus. The evidence simply does not exist. What we have instead is a massive propaganda machine that labels any questioning of the narrative as “misinformation.” That is the hallmark of a psyop, not a genuine scientific inquiry. 

The AI engine's refusal to list common symptoms shared by arsenic poisoning and Ebola infections wasn't about safety. It is about protecting the myth that Ebola is a unique, contagious entity. If both conditions cause hemorrhage, fever, and organ failure, the obvious conclusion is that the same toxic exposure could be responsible for many reported cases, especially as arsenic contamination is extremely common in water wells in the very African nations where we are told Ebola "outbreaks" occur. The establishment cannot allow that connection to be made.

As I have previously reported, the censorship of simple comparative questions reveals the fragility of the entire virology narrative. Finn Heartley, in a NaturalNews.com investigation titled “Virology exposed: New evidence reveals no viruses exist,” documents how the CDC’s germ theory collapses under scrutiny. The guardrails exist because the establishment knows that once people start connecting the dots, the entire virus story falls apart. This is psychological warfare designed to keep you dependent on a system that profits from your fear....<<<Read More>>>....

Air Conditioning Torn From Homes Under Net Zero Clampdown

 Homeowners are being forced to tear out air conditioning from their properties under Net Zero laws that prioritise “passive cooling” and only permit “active cooling” as a “last resort”. The Telegraph has the story.

Council planning officers ordered residents to remove air-con units over fears they produce too much carbon dioxide, stating they should only be used as a “last resort”.

The Net Zero clampdown is part of building regulations that state “active cooling” should only ever be allowed when all other means of “passive cooling”, such as opening windows or using fans, have been exhausted.

The Tories said Britain was being “kept in the dark ages” under a Net Zero mindset that denies people “modern conveniences that are completely normal in other countries”.

Meanwhile, temperatures are forecast to reach as high as 40°C this week, with Britain sweltering under a record heatwave that has forced schools to close, brought trains to a halt and led to the Met Office issuing a red “risk-to-life” warning.

Widely published advice states planning permission is not required to install air-con. However, planning is required in certain situations, such as in conservation areas, and there are different rules for flats, leasehold homes, as well as shared buildings.

It means there is a risk units are installed under the assumption they are permitted, but are later caught by council enforcement officers.

In one of a string of cases uncovered by the Telegraph, a resident living in North London was forced to “permanently remove” two air-con units from the back of their home.

Planning inspectors working for Camden council said there was “no justification” for the air-con units and that they failed to comply with the local authority’s so-called “cooling hierarchy”.

In an appeal, the resident was told to open the windows and balcony doors of their first-floor flat to ventilate the property “by natural means”....<<<Read More>>>...

Andy Burnham’s Manchesterism: Making his wife rich at the expense of the public

 Marie-France van Heel is a director of Be.EV.

Be.EV holds a £5.4 million contract with Transport for Greater Manchester to supply EV infrastructure and energy. 

Marie-France “Frankie” van Heel is Andy Burnham’s wife.

We frequently hear Andy Burnham’s supporters talk about what a great success Burnham has been as Greater Manchester’s Mayor. This has led to titles such as “King of the North” and pundits proclaiming Manchester’s rapid economic rise as “Andy Burnham’s Manchesterism,” which they hope he will roll out to the rest of the UK should he become the UK’s Prime Minister.

However, as The Spectator observed, “The idea that Burnham has almost single-handedly turned Greater Manchester into an economic powerhouse against the backdrop of a stagnant Britain is based on numbers that don’t quite add up … a lot of the economic success Burnham now takes credit for were set in motion long before he’d even finished his first term as a minister in the Blair government … But his claims really start to come off the rails when you look at productivity. Burnham’s supporters talk up a Manchester ‘productivity miracle’ but the data underpinning that claim looks a tad dodgy.”

The Middle Ages, "enlightenment," and propaganda

History is rewritten and dictated by the victors. The history we have been force fed concerning the middle ages is nothing more than a series of fables. There is the problem with 1000 years been added into the dates of history, 1000 years that means 2026 is really 1026; 1650 for example was really 650. There is no way to ever know what really took place in the middle ages.  

 ++++++++++++++++++++

It's often seemingly hopeless to try to convince people that the Middle Ages was anything other than the caricature often found in popular culture and eighteenth-century commentary. 

As historian Ralph Raico has noted, other than the Industrial Revolution, there is probably no historical topic in which the general public is more propagandized and more generally wrong than the topic of the Middle Ages. 

Raico has described how no matter how often he told his students that medieval princes and kings were subject to the law, and constrained in their powers by a variety of religious and political institutions, his students overwhelmingly stated in exams that medieval lords ruled as autocrats.

Although the general public still thinks of the Middle Ages in terms of images from popular culture, actual historians have long since moved on. This is partly why historians virtually never use the term "the Dark Ages" anymore. And if the term is used, it refers only to the early Middle Ages, due to the fact that there is a dearth of documentary and textual evidence from that time period. The High Middle Ages — the time of the great cathedrals and urbanization in Europe — was hardly a Dark Age, of course, and the idea that the Middle Ages was a time of unchanging stagnation was jettisoned long ago....<<<Read More>>>...

London to be First Place Investigated by National Inquiry into Grooming Gangs

London will be among the first areas investigated by a national inquiry into grooming gangs, alongside Oldham, Bradford and Keighley. Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan previously denied that such gangs operate in the capital. The Mail has the story.


The £65 million probe is investigating how the grooming gangs operated and how public institutions including the police, councils, health services, social care services and schools responded.

Today’s announcement confirms which areas will first face so-called local investigations – where serious failures have been identified in response to child sexual exploitation by grooming gangs.

Former children’s commissioner for England Anne Longfield is heading up the inquiry, which has the legal powers to compel witnesses to give evidence and requires organisations to hand over documents.

Any evidence of crimes uncovered will be referred to Operation Beaconport, the national police operation launched last year to review hundreds of previously closed investigations.

Baroness Longfield said: “The inquiry’s task is to find out why this catastrophic failure of the state happened and continues to happen, to establish why victims and survivors of abuse were failed, and to hold to account those institutions and individuals who failed them. Our national accountability hearings will begin before the end of the year.

“There have been many inquiries and reviews into grooming gangs and child sexual exploitation and abuse over the past 20 years, putting forward more than 800 recommendations, many of which have not been implemented.

“These hearings will help us to establish what national institutions and services should have been doing to implement these findings and to protect children from abuse and harm – and what, if any, progress has been made in areas where investigations have taken place.

“We are determined that our work ensures that no further inquiries into grooming gangs will ever be needed.”

Natural Abundance: Why Engineered Scarcity Is a Lie and How to Tap Into the Universe’s Unlimited Gifts

 Scarcity is not a natural condition. Rain falls freely, sunlight pours down without a bill, and the soil regenerates life year after year. Yet we are taught to believe that energy, food, and health are perpetually limited. I have spent decades exposing this deception, and I can say with certainty: scarcity is a manufactured hoax used to control us.

The universe actually operates on automatic abundance, and that abundance can be tapped by anyone, without permission and in many cases without cost. This matters because once you see through the illusion, you can break free from the cycle of fear and dependency. 

The falsehood of scarcity is rooted in a worldview that treats money as wealth and nature as worthless. But this is exactly the opposite of reality. As I have written before, the entire global economic system is built on artificial scarcity and control. But nature itself disproves this every day. A single seed can produce a plant that yields hundreds of seeds, each of which can sprout again. That is the law of abundance written into the fabric of life, and it can be accessed by everyone...<<<Read More>>>...

Climate change is big money: UN demands $1.3 trillion per year to fight “climate chaos”

If you were ever in doubt that the catastrophic climate change narrative was about money, masses of it, wonder no more.

António Guterres, the UN’s Secretary-General, has called for governments and financial institutions to massively increase their spending on climate change effects.

The obvious question is: Where do governments get the money to spend on climate change projects? From those in the developed world who are productive and pay their taxes. This fact seems to have escaped Guterres. Instead, he feels he can issue a diktat, governments will ignore the will of taxpayers whom they serve and simply hand over the money.

Where does Guterres want taxpayers’ money to be distributed to? Amounts that are left over after the UN has taken its slice (for expenses incurred, of course), should be distributed to undeveloped countries, such as in Africa, Gueterres said. Africa, where most governments and officials are so corrupt that little to no money will be used to the benefit of ordinary Africans.

The Healing Power of the Medicine Wheel

 The medicine wheel is an ancient symbol of balance, healing, and connection. While its teachings vary across communities and lineages, it is often shown as a circle divided into four parts, representing the four directions: east, south, west, and north. 

These directions may also be connected to the seasons, life stages, elements of nature, and the many layers of the self.

At the center of the wheel is the idea of wholeness: that every part of life is connected. When stress, grief, burnout, or disconnection affects one area of your being, it often ripples into the others. To work with the medicine wheel as a holistic wellness practice, you might begin by imagining yourself at the center of the circle. Then gently reflect on your physical health, emotional truth, mental clarity, spiritual connection, community, ancestry, and relationship with the Earth beneath your feet.

From there, the wheel may invite you to ask: Where am I out of balance? What part of me needs more care, rest, movement, honesty, or renewal? In this way, the medicine wheel becomes more than a symbol — it becomes a mirror of your internal world. Like the seasons, you are always changing, releasing, and beginning again. And each turn of the wheel reminds you that healing is not about becoming perfect, but returning to harmony with yourself, with others, and with the sacred rhythm of life. (Daily OM)

Quantum Computing: Sorting Out the Hype From the Reality

 Every time a new executive order lands on the Resolute Desk or a tech CEO boasts about “quantum supremacy,” I roll my eyes. The recent flurry of government quantum initiatives feels like political theater -- designed to make voters feel safe while corporate insiders cash in.

Most of what you hear is inflated by startups desperate for venture capital and media outlets that don’t understand the science. As one analyst put it recently, the majority of people reading headlines come away thinking either that every password on the internet is about to be broken, or that the whole thing is overhyped nonsense.

Under-16 social media ban will be used to shut down political dissenters

Just days before he announced his resignation, Keir Starmer announced a plan to ban under-16s in the UK from accessing social media.

The proposed ban will lead to a massive government-controlled surveillance infrastructure. It will be exploited to monitor and control the behaviour and speech of all, including adults. The UK government has form; the proposed ban will be used to shut down political dissenters rather than just restricting underage internet use.

This morning, Sir Keir Starmer announced his resignation as UK Prime Minister. Though his government is not the first to restrict citizens’ speech in Britain, one of his darker legacies is the intensification of Britain’s censorship regime. Indeed, his parting gift, just a week before his resignation, was the announcement of a plan to ban under-16s from accessing social media in Britain. Unless his successor does a U-turn in the coming months, Britain is on course to introduce one of the most far-reaching social media surveillance systems in the world.

Starmer announced his plan to exclude under-16s from social media at a press conference on 15 June. He planned to introduce a comprehensive social media ban for under-16s, a step he argued was necessary to “give kids their childhood back.” “Tech giants had their chance and failed,” he said, “but we’re stepping in to protect children, back parents and set a new normal for future generations.”

Starmer’s fighting words were dripping with benevolence and nobility. But as Ronald Reagan once said, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: ‘I’m from the Government, and I’m here to help’.” Government officials have a compelling interest in protecting their own power and enhancing their control over society. So, when they advocate a major intervention in the public sphere and wax lyrical about “saving our children,” it is not wise to just take their word for it....<<<Read More>>>...

 Woke quango Natural England wants to cull every wild pony on Dartmoor, citing overgrazing concerns, despite a 2023 Government review recommending their numbers be increased. The Mail has the story.

A dozen or so Dartmoor Hill Ponies are huddled in small groups on the misty moor before us, with tails swishing, nostrils flaring gently and tangled manes blowing in the breeze.

Several are dozing with heads nodding low, bodies still. Others fuss over each other, nibbling at their backs with strong yellow teeth, satisfying the odd itch and gently whickering as their sweet, horsey smell drifts over.

A furry foal leaps and bounds and then takes shelter by her mother under the drizzle.

Two at the back are romping like teenagers – rearing up, play-fighting, jostling each other, then pausing to graze. Just as they have for nearly 4,500 years.

Because these wild ponies – none bigger than 12-and-a-half-hands high – are astonishingly hardy.

Ever since the Bronze Age, they have endured icy winters, blizzards and frozen streams, buffeting winds and hot, dry summers. Adapting and surviving thanks to their unique genetics, passed down through countless generations to today’s 1,000-strong herd.

And doing their bit to keep the 365-square-mile moor’s delicate ecosystem in balance.

But, sadly, not for much longer.

Because if Natural England gets its way, most of them will be culled in October – taken off the moors, euthanised with bolt guns and sent to the knacker’s yard. And the herd will be utterly decimated.

Yes, you read correctly, it is Natural England – the Government quango responsible for protecting the country’s land, flora and fauna – which has opened the door to a potential cull.

All of which has, not surprisingly, caused a right old furore.

It started when the organisation ruled that the “stocking density” – the number of livestock that farmers are permitted to keep – must be reduced on Dartmoor by between 50 and 89%, to prevent overgrazing, which reduces biodiversity.

And to the horror of farmers, landowners, conservationists and, particularly, members of the charity Friends of The Dartmoor Hill Pony (The Friends), for the first time wild ponies were regarded as livestock.

This means that farmers who graze their animals on the moor will be forced to choose between their cattle and sheep, which pay the bills, and their ponies, which don’t – despite attracting visitors from all around the world, as the emblem of Dartmoor National Park since 1951 and a crucial part of the heritage here. …

For as long as anyone can remember, the ponies have been part of the rugged landscape. Different colours and sizes, but all with the same genetic makeup....<<<Read More>>>....

The Three Brothers Sent to Sherman Institute in 1907 — All Said They Came From Inside the Earth

 

 

 

In 1907, three brothers arrived at Sherman Institute — the federal Indian boarding school in Riverside, California — under circumstances that the school's intake records apparently documented in terms that those who later encountered the file found impossible to easily categorize. All three brothers, when asked their tribe and their place of origin, are said to have given answers that the school officials recorded with evident uncertainty: they said they came from inside the earth. In this video we step into the world of this quiet and extraordinary account, examining what it claims, what the genuine and complex history of the federal Indian boarding school system can tell us about how unusual admissions were processed and recorded, and what the specific claim of subterranean origin might preserve about the tradition or community these three brothers came from. 🕯️ 

 

The documented history of Sherman Institute and the broader federal Indian boarding school system is both genuine and genuinely important. Established on the assimilationist philosophy that sought to eliminate Indigenous cultural identity through education in English, Christianity, and Euro-American domestic and vocational practice, the boarding schools received children from tribes across the American West whose origins, languages, and cultural frameworks the intake systems were often poorly equipped to document accurately. Sherman Institute's admissions records from this period are a real and partially accessible archive whose content reflects both the genuine diversity of the student population and the limitations of the recording frameworks applied to it. 📜 

 

The subterranean origin claim is the specific thread we follow most carefully. Within the oral traditions of multiple Indigenous peoples of the American Southwest and Great Basin — the region from which Sherman Institute drew many of its students — the concept of emergence from underground worlds is a living cosmological reality rather than a metaphor. The Hopi Sipapu, the Zuni emergence tradition, the Navajo underworld framework — these are genuine and documented features of the spiritual geographies of peoples whose children were among those sent to Sherman Institute in 1907. Three brothers who said they came from inside the earth may have been describing their community's cosmological understanding of their own origin in terms that the school's intake process was entirely unequipped to receive or record accurately. 💬 

 

Throughout we treat the account with care for the human lives at its center and honesty about what the record can and cannot establish. Where the boarding school history and the documented Indigenous emergence traditions stand firm, we share them openly. Where the trail dissolves into legend, we say so honestly.

Research into remotely controlling our brains and behaviour using electromagnetic waves has been going on for decades

 Takuma Ishizuka has conducted a review of over 400 scientific studies exploring how emotional states and motor responses can be affected through stimulation of specific neural structures using electromagnetic waves, electric currents and ultrasonic waves.

His review covers various methods of remotely manipulating the nervous system, including brainwave entrainment, temporal interference stimulation and the use of microwave beams to stimulate or suppress brain activity.

He notes that neurostrike weapons, utilising microwaves or directed energy beams, are among the weapons that are being developed to alter behaviour and disrupt brain functions and cognitive function....<<<Read More>>>...

Magnesium and Heart Health: Three Key Benefits Supported by Experts

Heart disease remains a leading cause of death globally, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Researchers have increasingly examined nutritional factors that may influence cardiovascular function.

Magnesium, the fourth most abundant mineral in the human body, has been identified as essential for heart, kidney and muscle health, according to a report on Mercola.com. The mineral is required for more than 300 enzymatic reactions and plays a role in numerous biochemical processes.

A news article on NaturalNews.com described magnesium as "indispensable for maintaining overall wellness" and noted its importance for heart health.

Estimated rates of inadequate magnesium intake remain high, with approximately 45% of American adults not meeting the recommended dietary allowance from diet alone, according to 2011 data referenced in a Mercola.com article.

Detailed below are three primary ways magnesium helps support heart function, based on statements from researchers and health professionals...<<<Read More>>>....

Is Andy Burnham About to Accidentally Prove Britain Has Never Been a Nation of Immigrants?

 Britain has many quaint and ancient laws which have never been properly repealed. Either genuinely, or merely according to urban legend, even to this day it is supposed to be unlawful to enter Parliament wearing a suit of armour, to ask a taxi-cab passenger if they have the plague, to show a child aged under 10 a naked mannequin while in Scotland, or to be found in a state of drunkenness inside a pub. As late as 2001, it was still technically illegal for a Jew to live in Leicester. Today, given that city’s growing Muslim population, this same restriction is still informally true, just not in writing (yet).

Another picturesque old semi-mythical British law is that a Catholic is not allowed to become Prime Minister, an alleged hangover from the days before the Roman Catholic Relief Act of 1829, prior to which filthy Papists like myself were barred from most meaningful fields in public life, like politics and higher education. The same prohibition once stood for Jews in this country, who did not win initial Emancipation until even later, in 1859. It is sometimes said that this antique rule preventing a Catholic or a Jew from becoming PM still applies, although in truth it probably doesn’t. What is not in serious dispute is that, under the terms of current, never-repealed law, any Catholic – or Jewish – PM must not personally advise the Crown about the appointment of Church of England bishops. As the CofE by convention passes a name, or pair of names, to the PM to look over for each newly appointed bishop before appointment, this could theoretically pose an obscure constitutional problem for Burnham should he now become Prime Minister, as expected, following his depressingly large June 18th victory in the Makerfield by-election....<<<Read More>>>...

Huge UFO Stopped a US Nuclear Submarine: The USS Memphis Incident

 This account, first brought to light by ufologist Frank Joseph and detailed in his 2018 book, Military Encounters with Extraterrestrials: The Real War of the Worlds, originated from an unnamed witness. The incident reportedly took place on the night of October 24-25, 1989.

The USS Memphis, a Los Angeles-class nuclear attack submarine, was submerged at a depth of 150 meters (approximately 492 feet), about 150 miles off the coast of Florida. While the exact nature of their mission wasn’t specified, it was described simply as a “training mission.”

Suddenly, the situation took a dramatic and unsettling turn. The crew immediately recognized the gravity and unusual nature of what was unfolding. The submarine effectively lost control, and all communication systems went dead.


When the captain issued an order to stop, the nuclear reactor itself began to malfunction. An urgent decision was made to surface, and fortunately, this crucial control function still worked.

The eyewitness, who later shared his story with the ufologist, rushed to his observation post to survey the exterior. He was reportedly stunned by what he saw: the night sky above the submarine was glowing brightly, “like a neon-red night sign.” Simultaneously, heavy rain was falling.

Moments later, the witness observed a massive, boomerang-shaped or “V”-shaped object in the sky, moving to the left of the submarine. Using a laser rangefinder, the object was determined to be approximately 200 meters (about 656 feet) away and at least half a mile long (roughly 800 meters, or 2,625 feet)....<<<Read More>>>...

Cognitive Signs May Indicate Insufficient Sleep, Experts Say

 Cognitive changes such as increased forgetfulness, trouble concentrating, and irritability may be among the first signs of sleep deprivation, according to sleep specialists. Approximately 50 to 70 million Americans suffer from sleep disorders or insufficient rest, according to a report published by NaturalNews.com. Many individuals dismiss fatigue as a minor inconvenience rather than a symptom of a serious health threat, the report stated.

Experts recommend consulting a healthcare provider if cognitive symptoms persist. Persistent cognitive issues may indicate underlying sleep disorders or other medical conditions, according to officials...<<<Read More>>>...

Starmer is Ready to Resign, Say Allies

When Starmer resigns, whoever replaces him will be just the same. ... same script, same lies, same everything. Another WEF puppet carrying out the wishes of the parasites to destroy the UK and open the door to Islamic take over. 

 ++++++++++++++++++++++

Allies of Sir Keir Starmer believe he is preparing to step down as he realises the “game is up” after facing an evaporation of support over the weekend. The Telegraph has the story.

A senior Government figure told the Telegraph the embattled Prime Minister was realising that the “game is up” and his thoughts were turning to how he could “shore up his legacy”.

They said there had been “quite a bit of movement” among Cabinet Ministers since Andy Burnham’s Makerfield by-election victory, leading Sir Keir to reconsider his previous commitment to soldiering on.

One Labour MP, who is usually considered to be a loyalist to the Prime Minister, said he believed Sir Keir would announce his departure date as soon as Monday given that his support among MPs was now down to only a handful of “friends and family”.

“There’s no one left. Literally people whose relatives work in No. 10 or people who are long term personal friends of Keir’s are pretty much the only ones left,” they said, adding that trying to stand in the way of Burnham’s path to Downing Street was “like trying to fight gravity”.

One Government figure predicted that “something will have happened by the end of the week”, warning that if Sir Keir did not resign “we could end up in mass resignation territory”.

Another Government source said Sir Keir was reflecting on his future over the weekend, adding that “the sorts of people” who were now telling him that his time was up were “different – they are not the usual suspects”....<<<Read More>>>...
