Your Living Sanctuary

 At their best, our homes act as our sanctuaries. They are the nests we return to for rest and nourishment before we venture out once again to spread our wings and fly. But there are times when we may experience our homes quite differently — when we feel surrounded by turmoil rather than harmony, or mired in chaos rather than immersed in peace. It is in these moments that we have the power to decide to bring more love into our homes.

When we choose love, we are deciding to begin within. Taking a deep breath, we can close our eyes and ask that when we open them again, we’ll see where we can make shifts to create greater harmony. These may be inner shifts, such as accepting others’ personality traits and working with them rather than against them. Or they may be changes we can make with items around the house — removing the ones that cause frustration and displaying things that make us feel good. Then, we may reach out to the people with whom we share our homes — whether they’re family members or another combination of people who share our space. We can help to shift their perceptions toward the positive by asking each person to think about their ideal living situation. After allowing some time for reflection, gathering to discuss each person’s ideas may lead to the discovery that there are conflicting concepts about what your shared home should provide. Once this information is out in the open, you’ll have a roadmap for creating balance and harmony from seemingly disparate desires. Together, agreements can be made to enable all to take the steps needed to create a unified vision.

When we have consciously chosen to make our home a place of harmony, then love’s energy can expand throughout the lives of all who reside there. Each person will be nurtured, allowing them to take that peace and serenity with them into the world — sharing it with whomever they may encounter, and making every space they enter a warmer and more loving place for everyone.

The Civil War Has Already Begun

 Professor David Betz of King’s College London has done something few academics ever manage: he has got a good part of the country talking seriously about civil war in Britain. His case is about the body politic, a fragmenting society, collapsing trust in the state, and the point at which organised groups start using violence to settle what politics no longer can.

I think he’s right about the direction of travel. Where I part company with him is on the scale. Betz is thinking about organised groups and attacks on the infrastructure that keeps our cities running. I think the war has already started at the level of the individual: between brothers and sisters, between old friends, between the man in the van and the protester glued to the road in front of him. People no longer simply disagree. They regard each other as illegitimate, and in more and more everyday situations that contempt is spilling over into something physical. That, to me, is what civil war looks like before anyone hands out the guns....<<<Read More>>>....

The Empty Shelves in Italy Are Not a Fluke — They Are the Opening Act of a Global Food Collapse

 I watched the grocery store footage from southern Italy this week with a sick feeling in my gut. The shelves were stripped bare -- not because of a nationwide shortage, but because truckers are protesting sky-high diesel prices and key distribution routes are blocked. In a country that's one of Europe's agricultural giants, stores are running out of basic foodstuffs. A localized trucker strike should not empty the bread aisle in a modern economy. But it did.

This looks like a temporary inconvenience in a distant country. That's what the establishment media will tell you. But in my view, this is exactly how the opening act of a global food collapse begins -- not with a bang, but with a trucker protest, a blocked highway, a few empty shelves. By the time the shelves stay empty, it will be too late to prepare. The warning shots are being fired right now, and almost nobody is listening.

Consider what happens when truckers cannot afford to drive. Diesel is not a minor input cost for food distribution; it is the lifeblood. When diesel goes above a certain price point, trucking companies lose money on every haul. They park their rigs. And when the rigs park, the food stops moving. The Italian trucker strike is not an isolated incident -- it's the first domino. 

Most people have no idea how fragile and fuel-dependent the modern food supply really is. Diesel runs the tractors that plow the fields. It runs the harvesters that bring in the crops. It runs the refrigerated trucks that move produce from farm to distribution center. It runs the trains that carry grain across continents. It runs the ships that haul food between nations. Every single link in the food chain depends on diesel -- and there is no substitute at scale.

This is the reality that the climate alarmists and the energy transition fantasists refuse to acknowledge. You cannot run a modern agricultural system on solar panels and wind turbines. You cannot harvest wheat with an electric combine that runs for six hours before needing a charge. The scale of energy required to feed eight billion people is staggering, and the vast majority of it comes from fossil fuels. When diesel becomes scarce or unaffordable, the entire system seizes up...<<<Read More>>>...

UK government’s manual for manipulation and control

 In May 2026, a UK Government-commissioned paper was published, titled ‘False and Misleading Information: An Evidence Summary and Map for Policy and Practice’. Despite its relatively benign heading, it reads like an instruction manual to enable state control of the population’s beliefs and behaviour and, as such, is arguably one of the most chillingly authoritarian documents to be considered by the political leaders of a supposedly open and democratic society.

At the request of the Government Office of Science, the paper was written by a group of social scientists at an organisation called ‘Behavioural Research UK’ – a research consortium hosted by Edinburgh University whose stated mission is to conduct “interdisciplinary behavioural research … addressing societal challenges.” Its personnel include researchers from the University of Oxford, University College London and the UK Health Security Agency. One of the organisation’s co-directors is Professor Susan Michie, a prominent “nudger” during the covid event and currently the Chair of the World Health Organisation’s Technical Advisory Group on Behavioural Insights. In compiling the document, Behavioural Research UK purportedly conducted a rapid review of the relevant literature, followed by a consultation with “11 experts working in the field of false and misleading information’ who were recruited for a ‘consensus-based exercise” via “a rigorous filtering process to ensure high-quality input” – I think we can reliably conclude that this selection procedure resulted in a band of “experts” who, collectively, were less than representative of the wide spectrum of opinion about what constitutes misinformation and the means by which it should be countered...<<<Read More>>>...

Army sniper claims troops killed ‘reptilian beings’ in battle near Area 51

 A former U.S. Army sniper has alleged that American special operations forces engaged in a lethal underground firefight with reptilian beings near Area 51, resulting in the death of at least one U.S. soldier.

Nick Betts, co-host of the Liberty Risk podcast, said an unnamed member of the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC) disclosed the details during a night of drinking while the group was involved in a documentary project about the war in Ukraine.

The account, which Betts shared on a December 2025 podcast episode, describes soldiers being deployed from Fort Bragg in North Carolina after an underground facility a few miles from the Nevada base stopped transmitting routine radio checks and a quick-reaction force failed to return. The team was briefed at Area 51 itself, issued directed-energy weapons, and flown by Black Hawk helicopter to a tunnel entrance leading into the complex.

Once inside, a group of roughly six operators began clearing the tunnels and encountered the first of three invaders. “They said that they f****** shot this creature that was bipedal, mildly reptilian-looking but had fingers and was using this weapon system,” Betts said.

Moments later, one soldier was struck in the chest by the same type of energy weapon and killed instantly. “As they’re coming around on this outside, the outside left guy gets f****** hosed with one of the guns that they’re using like straight to the chest and f****** dies,” Betts recounted.

The operators returned fire, killed the first creature, and ultimately eliminated all three, according to the source. The fallen soldier’s remains were cremated on site—a decision the team protested because of the serviceman’s Catholic faith—and a cover story of a training accident was prepared.

The facility itself was described as more advanced than the most secure areas of the Pentagon, featuring biometric hand scanners and iris readers. “It was, you know, almost looked like ‘Independence Day,’ where they have the glass windows and things like that and access points with full handprints and biometrics and then also an iris reader,” Betts said....<<<Read More>>>...

Ministers Turn on Ed Miliband Over Net Zero Block on AI Investment

 Senior Government sources told the Telegraph there was frustration with the former energy secretary, who has questioned whether AI expansion can support Labour’s Net Zero plans.

Ministers are pushing for greater central control of the national grid so that data centres, which are vital infrastructure for powering AI, can be prioritised.

However, Mr Miliband, who is now the Foreign Secretary, is understood to oppose the plans over the large amounts of electricity data centres require and the impact on the Government’s Net Zero agenda.

Investment in data centres is the latest point to divide the Cabinet. A previous rift was caused when John Healey, the Chancellor, insisted a third runway at Heathrow Airport would turbocharge the economy, despite the Prime Minister refusing to back the plan.

One Cabinet minister said that working class families were “falling out of love with Net Zero”, arguing that it was hard for them to support something which was costing them both “jobs and a summer holiday”. …

The UK has been criticised by AI firms for its high electricity prices and slow grid connections, which have led many data centre developers to go abroad or build their own gas turbines.

“You can’t have AI growth zones one minute, and Ed [Miliband] the next saying he wants Net Zero everywhere,” one industry source said. “The two don’t compute.” They added that Mr Miliband was not “remotely pro-data centres” and was not “remotely pro anything that does not drive towards Net Zero”....<<<Read More>>>....

The bittersweet truth: How high-fructose corn syrup infiltrated the food supply and what it costs our health

 HFCS became a dominant food ingredient due to a combination of 1970s high sugar prices, U.S. corn subsidies and its FDA "generally recognized as safe" status, making it a cheap and industry-friendly sweetener.

HFCS is ubiquitous in processed foods and beverages, found not only in obvious items like soda and candy but also in bread, condiments, yogurt and many other everyday products.

The body processes the fructose in HFCS almost exclusively in the liver, which, in excess, can promote fat production, increase blood triglycerides and contribute to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.

High consumption is associated with insulin resistance (leading to Type 2 diabetes), obesity, gout, hypertension and systemic inflammation, partly because it doesn't trigger satiety signals like other sugars.

While debate continues, public health guidance has shifted toward recommending limits on all added sugars, with HFCS being a major source, due to the documented risks of excessive fructose and empty calories in the diet.

For decades, a silent shift in everyday food ingredients has altered the nutritional landscape of the American diet. High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS), a liquid sweetener derived from corn, moved from an industrial novelty to a ubiquitous staple, finding its way into everything from soft drinks to bread. Its prevalence is now at the center of a persistent public health debate concerning metabolic disease, obesity and the very fabric of food processing.

The story of HFCS is inextricably linked to economics and agricultural policy. While syrups from corn have existed for centuries, the development of HFCS as it is known today began in the late 1950s and 1960s with Japanese researchers who perfected enzymatic processes to convert corn glucose into fructose. Its adoption in the United States surged in the 1970s, propelled by high sugar prices, tariffs on imported cane sugar and substantial government subsidies on corn.

"High-fructose corn syrup is a sweetener made by enzymatically converting corn starch into glucose and then further converting much of that glucose into fructose," said BrightU.AI's Enoch...<<<Read More>>>...

Britain is Accelerating Towards Crisis

 Something is going badly wrong across Western societies, and the sense of political dislocation is no longer a fringe concern. Trust in institutions has fallen, established political parties are losing support and arguments over immigration and national identity have become sharp dividing lines.

In Germany, the President now warns openly of a return to the political divisions of the Weimar era. In France, a protest movement that began in schools has spread across the country, bringing arson, mass arrests and violent clashes with riot police to cities from Strasbourg to Marseille. Across Europe, insurgent parties of Left and Right prosper on dissatisfaction with political systems that seem increasingly unable to correct themselves. Britain exhibits the same symptoms. The question is why governments confronted by such conditions so often appear to aggravate the problems rather than address their causes....<<<Read More>>>...


Europe - The Final Countdown

 

Do You Need a Time Out?

 Most of us feel a little crazy from time to time. Periods of high stress can make us feel like we’re losing it, as can being surrounded by people whose values are very different from our own. Losing a significant relationship and moving into a new life situation are other events that can cause us to feel off kilter. Circumstances like these recur in our lives, and they naturally affect our mental stability. The symptoms of our state of mind can range from having no recollection of where we put our car keys to wondering if we’re seeing things clearly when everyone around us seems in denial of what’s going on right in front of their eyes. For most of us, the key to survival at times like these is to step back, take a deep breath, and regain our composure. Then we can decide what course of action to take.

Sometimes a time-out does the trick. We take a day off from whatever is making us feel crazy and, like magic, the next day we feel in our right mind again. Talking to an objective friend can also help. We begin to see what it is about the situation that destabilizes us, and we can make changes from there. At other times, if the situation is particularly sticky, we may need to seek professional help. Meeting with someone who understands the way the human mind reacts to stress, loss, and difficulty can make us feel less alone and more supported. A therapist or a spiritual counselor can give us techniques that help bring us back to a sane state of mind so that we can affect useful changes. They can also mirror our basic goodness, helping us to see that we are actually okay.

The main purpose of the wake-up call that feeling crazy provides is to let us know that something in our lives is out of balance. Confirm for yourself that you’re capable of creating a sane and peaceful reality for your life. Try to remember that most people have felt, at one time or another, that they are losing it. You deserve a life that helps you thrive. Try to take some steps today to help you achieve more balance and a little less craziness. (Daily OM)

Goldtown Ghost Town Paranormal Adventures

Our first experience of Goldtown Ghost Town paranormal was a day time investigation at the former Bordello undertaken by Matt of Fear Frontiers. 

The former Bordello is located atop a spiral staircase. We were greeted by Matt, who began the investigation providing a concise insight into the former residents of the Bordello and the harsh reality experienced by the woman during the time Goldtown was occupied with miners and the like. For more information on the tour visit Fear Frontier's web site. 

We began in the front greeting room of the Bordello. Lights went off and Matt began by showing us paranormal evidence captured in previous paranormal tours. Evidence of scratches, EVP, spirit box recordings and the like. Very compelling in truth.

 Opposite me were two original chairs that were in the Bordello. To my left was sudden movement and I got a strong impression of a very daunting and sullen woman standing there. A Bordello Madam? Then very quickly and suddenly I was aware of a woman sitting in one of the chairs opposite me. A short video taken of the chairs revealed an orb that travelled from the bottom right to top left of the video. There was also another footage that showed a strange flashing orange orb. 

We were then led into the small 'working room' of the Bordello. Upstairs was only part of the Bordello, with the downstairs being another part, which is now used by another shop owner for Portraits etc. 

During the investigation in the working room, footsteps were clearly head outside the room. Nobody was in that area at the time. 

A number of short videos taken in the room revealed strange light flashes which were only seen after the investigation.

Next, we were taken into the Madam's room. The atmosphere was heavy and it was clear the room had activity.   

While standing close to the bed within this room room, I personally experienced a tap on my right shoulder, and the feeling of a small hand trying to hold my right hand. There is a known young girl which frequents the room, who has been seen and heard. 

Whether it is in truth a deceased young girl, or something else masquerading as a girl, it is not possible to say. There is a great deal of darkness in the Goldtown due to the number of murders, suicides and deaths associated with the mining works.

We were then taken back into the front room area and watched as a Rem Pod was placed on a table located in the middle of the room. There is a haunted clock that was brought to the room, which is not linked to the Bordello in anyway, but is in truth a paranormal artifact said to the haunted by the former owner's grandmother.

Without warning the Rem Pod came alive with the red, the orange and the blue lights being activated. Matt let us know the Rem Pod had never flashed blue before.

The day time tour was impressive, but when Matt let us know they did a longer night time investigation of Goldtown, we knew had to undertake the investigation.

 It began with a meet and greet by Matt and his colleague Micheal. Insights into the history of the town were shared with us. And then it began as we were led into the town itself, with Matt at the front carrying a lantern and Micheal behind us also carrying a lantern. We were told this was for our safety and we were not to venture beyond either of the lights produced by the lanterns. The atmosphere in the Ghost Town was totally different to the daytime, as if, in the words of Matt, 'the town takes off its mask and shows its true nature at night'. It was creepy and challenging at night. 

We were taken to several locations and Matt & Micheal related numerous paranormal experiences in the locations. More history and a revealing of the phenomenon taking place in the Superstition Mountains and the land surrounding them. Not a safe place in truth.

We were then taken down to the remaining unflooded area of the mine, 40 feet below the ground. More paranormal insights and history, before we stopped in an area of the mine and I sat down at the back of the area. Here is where the phenomenon started. Matt and Micheal switched off their lanterns and we were left in total darkness. Not long after a heard, and felt, pebbles being thrown at me. A sceptic would say either Matt or Micheal had thrown the pebbles as a prop, but that was NOT the case. The pebbles were dropped from above me. Micheal informed me that one of the former miners is known to throw pebbles at people.

Not long after, I was aware of a presence behind me, and then the sudden strong smell of horse manure! It was not there when I first arrived, but it soon became very prevalent around me. Another person on the paranormal investigation close by to me then could smell the manure.  

Micheal explained the history of the mine relating to the mules that were kept in the mine and lived their lives down in the mine. So it was mule manure not horse manure!

Micheal switched on a Spirit Box app and there was a number of interesting sentences produced that were unexpected and related to the phenomenon we were all experiencing in the mine. The lights were put back on and we are all taken out of the mine.  

We were all then taken into the former Bordello to begin a night time investigation. There were numerous knocks and bangs during the investigation. More orbs and more lights. A Rem Pod was placed in the working room, and it provided interesting results. It seemed to respond to the feeling of the young girl being on the bed in the room, and then move across to the Rem Pod to answer a number of questions asked in the room. 

And then, the investigation was over and it was time to the Ghost Town. 

We must commend Matt and Micheal of Fear Frontiers for their professionalism and humour during the investigations. We would highly recommend both the day time and night time investigations. You are guaranteed to experience genuine paranormal phenomenon during both investigations.

Why Do People Keep Disappearing in Superstition Mountains?

 

Befriending Your Fear

 If you were to follow your fear, what specific dream, idea, or life change would it direct you toward right now? So many of us are conditioned to avoid fear, overcome it, or, in some cases, actively run away from it. Of course, some fear exists to protect us. But not every flutter in your stomach or voice of uncertainty means you’re heading in the wrong direction. Sometimes fear appears because you’re standing at the edge of something that matters deeply to you.

Fear and desire can live right beside each other. The opportunity you can’t stop thinking about, the creative idea you keep returning to, or the change you secretly long to make may also be the very thing that brings up thoughts like What if I fail? What will people think? Am I really ready for this? Rather than treating those questions as stop signs, we might become curious about what they’re pointing toward. Often, the things that ask the most courage of us are also the ones inviting us to grow.

Following that kind of fear doesn’t mean you need to have the whole path figured out. It might simply mean taking one small, brave step and seeing what opens from there. New people, opportunities, and experiences can appear in ways you never could have predicted. Sometimes fear isn’t standing between you and the life you want. It may be walking right beside potential, pointing toward the next beautiful thing waiting to unfold. (Daily OM)

Burnham’s “Common Good” is Reheated Fabian Socialism

 Andy Burnham's vision of the "common good" – with Net Zero at its heart – is just reheated Fabian socialism, says Dr Tilak Doshi – and the fingerprints of Left-wing economist Mariana Mazzucato are all over it.

When Andy Burnham returned from the summer recess to make his first Commons speech as Prime Minister, he promised MPs a “clear diagnosis” of what ails Britain. From the 1980s, he said, the country took a series of wrong turns. According to him, political power was centralised, economic assets were privatised and industry was hollowed out. Thatcher was the villain and the 1970s constituted the lost Eden. The Institute of Economic Affairs rightly called it a speech steeped in nostalgia. Weeks later, at the Labour conference in Liverpool, the PM went further. Invoking 1945, he declared that “we built the common good”, then promised to repeal the Thatcher-era ban on public ownership of water companies and to launch GB Grid, a publicly owned company to take on private energy operators. Energy, water and housing were to come back under “public control”....<<<Read More>>>...

Trump labels anyone using the term “AI” instead of what he renamed it as “THE ENEMY!”

 President Trump on Thursday branded anyone who still says “Artificial Intelligence” instead of “Super Intelligence” “THE ENEMY!” — even as the White House itself continues to use the older term.

According to a report from Yahoo News, drawing on Axios reporting, the outburst landed on Truth Social as the administration pressed a rebrand that collides with the language long used across the technology industry.

Trump’s preferred label blurs a distinction the field has treated as fundamental. Superintelligence is generally understood as a hypothetical system more advanced than human intelligence, not a synonym for the tools already in wide use. “The White House considers anyone that uses the term, ‘Artificial Intelligence,’ as opposed to the highly accepted new and more accurate term, ‘Super Intelligence,’ THE ENEMY!” Trump wrote....<<<Read More>>>....

What Are Skinwalkers? Inside The Navajo Legend

So, what is a Skinwalker? As The Navajo-English Dictionary explains that the “Skinwalker” has been translated from the Navajo yee naaldlooshii. This literally means “by means of it, it goes on all fours” — and the yee naaldlooshii is merely one of many varieties of Skinwalkers, called ‘ánti’jhnii.

The Pueblo people, Apache, and Hopi also have their own legends involving the Skinwalker.

Some traditions concerning Native American monsters believe that Skinwalkers are borne of a benevolent medicine man who abuses indigenous magic for evil. The medicine man is then given mythical powers of evil, that vary from tradition to tradition, but the power all traditions mention is the ability to turn into or possess an animal or person. Other traditions believe a man, woman, or child can become a Skinwalker should they commit any kind of deep-seated taboo.

In Native American lore, the Skinwalkers are described as being mostly animalistic physically, even when they are in human form. They are reportedly near-impossible to kill except with a bullet or knife dipped in white ash..

Little more is known about the purported being, as the Navajo are staunchly reluctant to discuss it with outsiders — and often even amongst each other. Traditional belief portends that speaking about the malevolent beings is not only bad luck but makes their appearance all the more likely...<<<Read More>>>....

From the recent images, its not hard to deduce our destination ... ideas anyone?

We went sightseeing, we experienced driving on the right hand side of the road and we went on ghost hunts ...

A haunted old ghost town that was once a gold town ... in a mine, in a former bordello, all in the shadow of one of the scariest mountains in all of America. 

Did we experience any paranormal phenomena? Yes we did ... scratches on backs, taps on shoulders, pebbles thrown at us in the mine, orbs caught on camera, the inexplicable and sudden smell of Mule manure, and a Rem Pod bursting into life on two separate occasions. Very impressive. 

All taking place on former Apache land. Land where something is not quite right. Skinwalker territory with many reports of missing people and strange murders .... 

Anyway, its great to be back.

Burnham’s Brexit con: The British version of the Russian Collusion Hoax

 Installed Prime Minister Andy Burnham appeared on a podcast recently to promote propaganda about the “cost of Brexit” to justify the return of the UK to full membership of the EU.

The “cost of Brexit” claimed by Burnham is fraudulent. He is relying on fictional projections while misattributing economic damage caused by the response to covid, Net Zero policies and high taxation to Brexit imposed by politicians for their pet projects such as immigration.

Burnham then went on to blame Russian interference during the 2016 Brexit Referendum to delegitimise the vote of millions of working-class Britons.

It seems to be becoming the norm for politicians to label the public’s wishes and concerns as “Russian interference” and “disinformation” to delegitimise public opposition to globalist policies.

Why Does the Telegraph Keep Falling for Climate Propaganda?

Extreme heat putting babies at risk'; 'Climate change driving up coffee prices': why does the Daily Telegraph keep falling for all the climate propaganda put out by activists.

Soaring temperatures are increasing birth complications and defects in newborns, a new report has warned.

The report, which surveyed 1,000 doctors and midwives, found that at least 73% of healthcare workers across Australia, Brazil, Britain, India and Zimbabwe had seen an uptick in heat-related complications in pregnancy and birth.

High temperatures can cause surface-level blood vessels to dilate, which in pregnant women can significantly decrease blood flow to the placenta and reduce oxygen and nutrients reaching the foetus.

The first two words “soaring temperatures” tell us that this was not a serious study. The average increase in global temperatures in recent years is barely measurable against the background of daily, weekly and seasonal swings. The term is used to scare.

Are these birth complications more common in summer than winter? We are not told.

Are they more common in hotter countries? Again, we are not told because the study is not a proper scientific analysis, based on accurate, verifiable data....<<<Read More>>>...

Saffron: The golden spice of wellness and culinary delight

 Saffron has a rich history dating back over 3,500 years, originating in ancient Mesopotamia and later spreading to the Mediterranean. It was used in ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome for medicinal, culinary and cosmetic purposes. Iran is now the largest producer, contributing over 90 percent of the world's saffron.

Saffron contains bioactive compounds like crocin, crocetin and safranal, offering antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties. It has been shown to improve mental health (e.g., depression and anxiety), enhance vision, support heart health, potentially prevent cancer and aid digestive health.

Saffron is a versatile spice used in dishes like paella, risotto and biryani, adding a unique earthy, floral flavor. It is also consumed as a tea or infusion for relaxation, sleep improvement and immunity boosting, and is available in supplement form.

Saffron is known globally by various names (e.g., Za'feran, Kesar, Azafrán) and is valued for its vibrant golden color, delicate aroma and complex flavor. It has been used as a natural dye and is associated with luxury and beauty across cultures.

Saffron continues to inspire culinary creativity and wellness practices worldwide. Its labor-intensive harvesting process contributes to its high cost, but its enduring appeal lies in its ability to blend history, culture and health benefits into a single "golden spice."

Derived from the delicate stigmas of Crocus sativus, saffron is a spice that has captivated humanity for millennia. Known as the "golden spice" for its vibrant hue and exorbitant cost, saffron is not only a culinary treasure but also a potent medicinal herb....<<<Read More>>>...

Starting on 13 December 2026, the UK government has mandated the addition of synthetic folic acid to non-wholemeal wheat flour – to help prevent an estimated 200 neural tube defect-affected pregnancies annually.

This population-wide government intervention is disproportionate. It exposes nearly 69 million people – the vast majority of whom do not need the supplement – to a synthetic additive without their consent....<<<Read More>>>....

Holiday Time

 Its time for a break!

We're off on our holidays from tonight, so there are likely to be little or no posts for the next 10 days.

It will be good to have a rest; a chance to take a break whilst it is still possible to do so. 

So please bear with us, normal service will be resumed around the 16th October 2026. 

May we take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for your continued support. Thanks for your visits to our little realm within the WWW. 

Remember to take everything with a pinch of salt as things are not what they seem. There are numerous posts that our out there on the 'conspiracy' sites that have been deliberately released by parasitic sources to generate fear and panic. Much of those posts are not truth, and it is up to you to make up your own mind before letting the stories shape your reality. The parasites need you to believe their BS in order the shape reality for them ... don't let that happen. 

So bye for now .... we really need this break and intend to have the best holiday we can.

C0V1D Was the Warm-Up: The Global Energy Sabotage Is the Real Kill Switch

 In retrospect, we now know that C0V1D-19 was never the main event. It was a warm-up. It was the largest obedience experiment in human history, a depopulation dry run that tested how far the masses could be pushed before they broke. And through that experiment, the globalists learned exactly what they needed to know. Now they are pulling the real kill switch, and it is not a virus. It's energy.

The same networks that shut down the world in 2020 are now engineering a global energy collapse. From sabotaged refineries to deliberate diesel scarcity, from fertilizer plant shutdowns to food distribution center fires, the pieces fit together with terrifying precision.

We must connect the dots between refinery attacks, diesel scarcity, and the coming food collapse. These are not separate crises. They are facets of a single globalist agenda: to starve billions, concentrate power, and clear the way for a world run by machines and ruled by a tiny elite. C0V1D taught them we would consent to our own destruction. Energy sabotage ensures we cannot refuse...<<<Read More\>>>...

Mike Johnson Gaslights Whistleblowers, Claims AI Doomsday Warnings Are a ‘Chinese Psyop’

 House Speaker Mike Johnson told Fox Business on Monday that warnings about data centers and artificial intelligence wiping out humanity are Chinese propaganda meant to pull the United States out of the AI race.

Anchor Cheryl Casone asked whether opposition to data centers was coming from Beijing. “I mean, do you think that this, with regards to China — I mean, I’ve had several tech executives and lawmakers, to be clear, say that the information against data centers, that pushback against data centers — that is coming from China. They believe that,” she said. Democrats, she added, were seizing on the issue for the midterms.

Johnson answered that the pattern was familiar. “This is what Democrats do every election cycle,” he said. “They find something to, you know, glom onto and say that this is doom and gloom and everyone will die if we don’t win. Don’t buy it. It is a Chinese psyop. I really believe that. It’s not a conspiracy theory. I think they’re pushing those ideas.”...<<<Read More>>>...

How Seriously Should We Take AI Doom Warnings?

How seriously should we take the latest AI doom warnings from the technocrats? It's unclear, says Matt Ridley – but it's hard to give much credence to those who have ignored the very real threat from man-made viruses.

Imagine an artificial intelligence making copies of itself. The first replicator assembles a copy in one thousand seconds, the two replicators then build two more in the next thousand seconds, the four build another four, and the eight build another eight. At the end of 10 hours, there are not 36 new replicators, but over 68 billion. In less than a day, they would weigh a ton; in less than two days, they would outweigh the Earth; in another four hours, they would exceed the mass of the Sun and all the planets combined.

This is the fate we face, according to many....<<<Read More>>>...

Colossal “Hybrid Storm” set to drop over 69 TRILLION gallons of rain on the United States

A doom and gloom fearmongering article?  

 ++++++++++++++

According to a report from The Most Important News, a hybrid storm is pouring extraordinary volumes of rain across the central United States, as the remnants of two hurricanes collide with a powerful upper-level low and set the stage for days of flooding.

Meteorologist Ryan Hall has estimated that from Sunday through next Wednesday, 69 trillion gallons of rain will fall on the country. Severe flooding is already underway in the Southwest, where leftover tropical moisture is meeting another storm moving in from the west.

AccuWeather described a major flood event unfolding across the southwestern and central United States just days after some of the same ground was already soaked. New Mexico has taken some of the worst of it. Floodwaters breached a 20-foot dam wall in the south of the state on Tuesday and poured into the rural community of Garfield. Video showed the inundation after the breach. Earlier that day, the National Weather Service issued a flash-flood emergency after dam operators and county officials warned that failure at McLeod Dam in Doña Ana County was imminent, and residents nearby were ordered to evacuate.

CBS News reported that rain fell in parts of the Southwest at rates as high as 4 inches an hour, and that more than 60 flash floods were recorded from Monday into Tuesday night.

Roads in southern New Mexico flooded, trapping drivers until the water receded. Pumps were brought in to ease pressure on the dam. Flood watches were later issued for Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas, with relentless rain expected over the next 48 hours.

The storm itself will eventually pass. The larger pattern behind it has not peaked. Climate scientist Daniel Swain has said this El Niño is so extreme that existing labels fail. “Well, this one is shaping up to be monstrous,” Swain said....<<<Read More>>>...

No, Burnham, the British people do not want to rejoin the EU

 Ever obedient to the Globalist agenda, the UK government, led by the recently installed Prime Minister and Fabian socialist Andy Burnham, is attempting once again to overturn the will of the people and officially rejoin the European Union.

So, has the will of the people changed as the establishment and its corporate media lackeys are claiming? Not so, according to recent polling.

Burnham has made rejoining the EU a dividing line. The can of worms has been cracked open.

Various rejoin-supporting organisations have commissioned polls showing nominal support for the move. But scratch even slightly beyond the surface and it reverses.

Brits do not support the primary features of rejoining. To begin with, Britain would obviously lose its Thatcher rebate and net contributions would therefore likely sit at around £15 billion annually. Britain would most likely have to sign up to Schengen and full free movement. It would have to sign up irreversibly to joining the Euro at some point. The British public are no fans.

Nor are they fans of handing powers back to Brussels, a principle which they rejected even when the UK had preferential conditions before leaving. Look at the evidence....<<<Read More>>>...
