both sides accuse each other of the attack that puts tens of thousands of homes at risk and might even threaten the safety of Europe's largest nuclear power plant.
The partial destruction of the Kakhovka Dam on early Tuesday morning saw Kiev and Moscow exchange accusations about who’s to blame, but a report from the Washington Post (WaPo) in late December extends credence to the Kremlin’s version of events.
“Kovalchuk
considered flooding the river. The Ukrainians, he said, even conducted a
test strike with a HIMARS launcher on one of the floodgates at the Nova
Kakhovka dam, making three holes in the metal to see if the Dnieper’s
water could be raised enough to stymie Russian crossings but not flood
nearby villages. The test was a success, Kovalchuk said, but the step remained a last resort. He held off.”
Though all mainstream news organisations are running with the sabotage narrative (and of course the "it's the Russians" narrative,) some more considered commentaries are suggesting the dam, already damaged by previous attempts to blow it up, and under unusual levels of pressure since early May when the Ukraine government drained dams further upstream, thus causing water level in Nova Kakhovan to rise above the safe limit.

The dam was simply washed away by water, due to the destroyed spans, which any person with education understands, the resistance of materials has done its job. Moreover, the fact that the hydroelectric dam stood for so long after the HIMARS missile strikes confirms the qualitative approach of Soviet architects.
Now in the information war, each side will try to blame each other, but the dam was filmed by cameras 24 by 7 and the explosion would have been filmed instantly, which means it did not exist.
Sabotage or enthusiastic incompetence? Either way, loss of the dam and the hydro electric power plan it fed is a huge blow to Ukrainian infrastructure although Russia gains nothing from the destruction and will be seriousl inconvenienced by knock on effects as water from the dam supplies most of Crimea's industrial and domestic needs.
Having said that, military experts say the strategic dynamics in the NATO-Russianproxywar in
Ukraine still favor Russia. This assessment is based on the
observation that Russia’s victory in the Battle of Artyomovsk shows that
it’s able to hold its own against NATO in terms of technology and logistics.
Even the New York Times, having steadfastly trumpeted the Ukrainian propaganda line since the war began, has been forced to admit that the West’s sanctions failed to collapse Russia’s economy while endless injections of cash and military hardware from NATO members into the Ukrainian war effort have failed to change the course of the war since Russia's initial strike which Moscow hoped would force
Kiev's surrender within days was blocked by unexpectedly fierce
Ukrainian resistance. Worse (for the west,) it is impossible to deny the proliferation of multipolarprocesses in the 15 months since the special operation began. These include German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, former US National Security Council member Fiona Hill, and Goldman Sachs’ President of Global Affairs Jared Cohen.
Apparently these people don't realise that the ship has sailed on getting the Global South to comply with US and NATO diktat. The
West’s economic and propaganda campaign failed to coerce the Global South to support America's
sanctions on Russia even among those states that voted in support of hostile
resolutions against it at the UN General Assembly. Many of them were arguably inspired by fellow developing country India’s principled neutrality towards the NATO-Russianproxywar, which showed that they can indeed multi-align between the US-led West and the Sino-RussoEntente if they have the political will and diplomatic deftness to do so.
To be sure, most Global South states were already disinclined
to support the West due to their resentment over being treated so
unfairly by it over the decades, but India proved that it’s possible to
defy their pressure without any serious consequences so long as they maintain balance between both sides. India's subsequent refusal to support the Biden administration's New Cold War and Washington's demands demands to unilaterally
concede on their objective national interests represented a turning
point in global affairs.
Meanwhile water continues to pour through the breached dam and the people of Ukraine, having been chosen for beatification as the sacrifice that would give up its life on the altar of American hegemonic ambitions.

De - Dollarisation: China, Brazil Make Deal To Ditch US Dollar For Bilateral Trades China and Brazil this week concluded a deal to conduct trade between their nations in their own in their own currencies, ditching the established reserve currency for global trade, US dollar as an intermediary, the Brazilian announced said on Wednesday. This is Beijing’s latest strike against the almighty greenback in its currency war aimed at shifting the balance of geopolitical and economic power from west to east.

There have been 12,517 excess non-Covid deaths registered in England

available, 11,013 deaths were registered in England and Wales, which is
1,678 (18%) above the five-year average for the week. Of these, 810
mentioned COVID-19 on the death certificate as a contributory cause and
531 mentioned COVID-19 as underlying cause, leaving 1,147 deaths from a
different underlying cause. Note that this was the week following the

The mainstream media are currently
constantly reminding you of the spiralling cost of fuel to get you from A
to B, the hideous cost of gas and electricity to heat and light your
home, and the chaotic experience involved with travelling abroad.
Alongside doomsday weather reports every 30 minutes because the sun is
shining in the middle of Summer.
Whilst on the face of it, some of
these things may seem like unfortunate events occurring at random, the
truth is they are actually all occurring by design, and official
government reports alongside historical data prove it.
Reports suggest it’s all to do with
meeting ‘zero carbon targets’. But that is another charade in itself, so
the real reason has something to do with advancing the fourth
industrial revolution, where you will own nothing and apparently be
happy about it. An agenda that Klaus Schwab, the founder of the World
Economic Forum likes to call ‘The Great Reset’.
In the UK, the cost to fill up an average
family car with petrol has now surpassed £100. The public is being told
this is being driven by war in Ukraine and moves to reduce Europe’s
dependence on Russian oil. But if this were true, how do you explain
this? –
As of August 2022, the price of crude oil per barrel is $89.10, and the average price per litre of petrol in the UK is £1.77p.
But back in June 2008, the price of crude
oil per barrel was $187.04, and the average price per litre of petrol in
the UK was £1.04p (source).
So as things stand, the price per barrel of
crude oil is 52.3% down from the price in 2008, but the price per litre
of petrol is 70% up from 2008.

when the Government and mainstream media tell you that these rising
costs are due to the war in Ukraine? ... Continue reading >>>
German Health Minister Karl Lauterbach has announced that the
nation’s digital contact tracing and vaccine passport app,
Corona-Warn-App (CWA), will start assigning different colors to citizens
based on whether they received a COVID-19 vaccine within the last three
months.
The CWA will assign one color to citizens who add proof that they
received a vaccine within the last three months and a different color to
citizens who add proof of vaccination that’s more than three months
old. Only those with the color showing that they’re “freshly vaccinated”
(have received a vaccine within the last three months) will be exempt
from Germany’s mask requirement in public indoor spaces.
Other citizens, including those who received multiple vaccines but
had their last vaccine more than three months ago, will have to show
proof of recent recovery from COVID or a current negative test to get an
exemption from this mask requirement.
Germany’s Berliner Zeitung noted that
the colors codes in the vaccine passport app would “give different
rights in the future” and said the system would put citizens who are
already quadruple vaccinated on the same legal footing as those who are
unvaccinated. ... Continue reading >>>
The World Economic Forum (WEF) has been pushing hard for a
‘cashless society’ in a post-pandemic world, though physical money has
made a comeback in at least one European country as consumers
increasingly use notes and coins to help them balance household budgets
amid an inflationary storm.
Britain’s Post Office released a report Monday that revealed even
though the recent accelerated use of cards and digital payments on
smartphones, demand for cash surged this summer, according to The Guardian.
It said branches handled £801mln in personal cash withdrawals in July,
an increase of 8% over June. The yearly change on last month’s figures
was up 20% versus the July 2021 figure of £665mln.
Across the Post Office’s 11,500 branches, £3.31bln in cash was
deposited and withdrawn in July — a record high for any month dating
back over three centuries of operations.
The report pointed out that increasing physical cash demand was
primarily due to more people managing their budgets via notes and coins
on a “day-by-day basis.” It said some withdrawals were from vacationers
needing cash for “staycations” in the UK. About 600,000 cash payouts
totaling £90mln were from people who received power bill support from
the government, the Post Office noted.
Britain is “anything but a cashless society,” according to the Post Office’s banking director Martin Kearsley. ... Continue reading >>>

Is The US Preparing To Throw Zelensky Under The Bus?
In a display of support, the US has protected Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky
from any criticism ever since Russia attacked Ukraine in February. As
it becomes evident the war has been lost, someone will have to take the
fall, and it appears that Washington is preparing to throw the leader in
Kiev to the wolves.
The US proxy war against Russia was beneficial for Washington as long as
there was a stalemate that was draining Moscow’s military, economic and
human resources, even threatening to demote Russia from the rank of a
great power. For example, Congressman Dan Crenshaw justified his support
for the process by arguing that “investing in the destruction of our
adversary’s military without losing a single American troop strikes me
as a good idea.”
After more than five months of grinding down the Ukrainian military,
the entire frontline is cracking. By punching through the heavily
fortified defenses in Maryinka, Peski, Avdeevka, it appears that Moscow
has sealed the fate of Donbass. As the fighting moves out of heavily
populated industrial areas to a more open landscape, the territorial
advancements of Russia will likely intensify. Furthermore, sanctions
have backfired terribly on the West, causing a political crisis.
Meanwhile, a new security crisis has emerged in East Asia that is
more deserving of US focus and resources. The US and UK built a
narrative of victory when they convinced Zelensky to abandon peace talks
with Russia in March, but now Washington needs to adapt the narrative
for Kiev’s pending loss.
A top Ukrainian official who was ousted over unsubstantiated claims
that Russians were committing mass rape admitted she “exaggerated” but
did so to convince the West to send more weapons to Ukraine.
Lyudmila Denisova, who had served as the Ukrainian Parliamentary Commissioner for Human Rights, was recently removed
by the Ukrainian Parliament over what they said were her false claims
about mass rapes. The members of Parliament at the time said that her
work focusing on alleged sexual assaults by Russian troops “couldn’t be
confirmed with evidence … and distracted the global media from Ukraine’s
real needs.”
Speaking to a Ukrainian news outlet, Denisova
said that the information about rapes that she spread served her goal
to obtain more military aid, confirming that “indeed, maybe I
exaggerated” some of the rape claims. She did not elaborate.
“When, for example, I spoke in the Italian parliament at the
Committee on International Affairs, I heard and saw such fatigue from
Ukraine, you know? I talked about terrible things in order to somehow
push them to make the decisions that Ukraine and the Ukrainian people
need,” she said this week, according to a translation ...Continue reading >>>
The Covid vaccines appear to be responsible for the emergence of a
new, fast-acting form of the deadly neurodegenerative condition
Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), a study by a leading virologist has
found. This is the disease one form of which in cows is Mad Cow disease
and it is always fatal.
The findings appear in a pre-print study
(not yet peer-reviewed) by world-renowned virologist and AIDS
discoverer Dr. Luc Montagnier (who died in February), neurologist Dr.
Claire Moret-Chalmin and Dr. Jean Claude Perez.
“Why and how can this same fatal disease declare itself so quickly
following these injections?” they ask, concluding it is “very likely
that we are dealing here with a new form of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease”.
Ms Shriver assesses recent research by the Pull Agency which that the public are heartily sick of woke adverts and find them off-putting and wonders how effective ads are in shaping public consciousness.
Stop!
Don’t fast-forward. I love this advert!’ How often do you say that?
Considering that some commercial breaks run to five minutes, not often
enough. How about, ‘Oh no, not again, I can’t stand this advert’? Mm…
nightly?
According
to recent research by the Pull Agency, a brand consultancy, promotion
that strains to impress consumers with a company’s progressive
imprimatur is off-putting. You always suspected it, but now it’s
official: woke advertising backfires.
In
a survey of 2,000 representative Britons, 68 per cent of respondents
were either ‘uneasy’ or ‘unsure’ about brands supporting fashionable
left-wing causes such as climate change, BLM, LGBTQ+, diversity,
equality, and female body confidence. Fifteen per cent would actively
avoid purchasing the products of companies that publicly endorse those
causes via ‘woke-washing’. To go out on a limb here, I’d venture that
even the 32 per cent of respondents who claimed to want brands to
posture politically in their promotions would rather watch Cravendale
Milk’s hilarious 2011 advert ‘Cats with Thumbs’ than the trendily
humourless Nike advert ten years later, in which a black lesbian student
spurns the classics as representing ‘the patriarchy’ to celebrate
‘women of colour’ who ‘fight for social justice’.
When
asked what companies should do to be socially responsible, 58 per cent
of respondents ticked: ‘Pay their taxes, treat people fairly, respect
the environment and not use it as a PR opportunity.’ In other words,
rather than lecture us to behave well, behave well yourself; peddle your
product, not your unconvincing high-mindedness.Continue reading >>>
The following has just been sent out to signatories of the petition
demanding a referendum on the WHO Pandemic Treaty. As you can see it is a
case of the Government knows best and the people do not have the right
to have a say in it!
To protect lives, the economy and future generations from
future pandemics, the UK government supports a new legally-binding
instrument to strengthen pandemic prevention, preparedness and response.
COVID-19 has demonstrated that no-one is safe until we
are all safe, and that effective global cooperation is needed to better
protect the UK and other countries around the world from the detrimental
health, social and economic impacts of pandemics and other health
threats. The UK supports a new international legally-binding instrument
as part of a cooperative and comprehensive approach to pandemic
prevention, preparedness and response.
At a World Health Assembly Special Session in late 2021, the 194
countries of the World Health Organization (WHO) agreed to launch a
process to draft and negotiate a new instrument, through the auspices of
WHO, to strengthen pandemic prevention, preparedness and response. The
negotiating process will be led by member states, including the UK.
The instrument aims to improve how the world prevents, better
prepares for, and responds to future disease outbreaks of pandemic
potential at national, regional and global level. It would complement
the existing international instruments which the UK has already agreed,
such as the International Health Regulations. It would promote greater
collective action and accountability.
A treaty is an international agreement concluded between States or
with international organisations in written form and governed by
international law. The UK is party to a large number of multilateral
treaties, including many through the United Nations (UN) and its
specialised agencies such as the WHO. These instruments reflect
obligations states have agreed to enter into to further common goals.
The current target date for agreeing the text of the new instrument
is at the World Health Assembly in May 2024. Over the next two years the
UK aims to work towards building a consensus on how the global
community can better prevent, prepare for, and respond to future
pandemics and will actively shape, develop and negotiate the text. The
new instrument would only be adopted by the World Health Assembly if the
text achieves a two-thirds vote of the Health Assembly (Article 19 of
the WHO Constitution). The Health Assembly is made up of representatives
of WHO Member States.
Once adopted, the instrument would only become binding on the UK if
and when the UK accepts (ratifies) it in accordance with its
constitutional process. In the UK this requires the treaty to be laid
before Parliament for a period of 21 sitting days before the Government
can ratify it on behalf of the UK.
The Government always carefully considers whether domestic
legislation will be required to implement the UK’s international
obligations when negotiating a treaty. Not every treaty requires
implementing legislation and it is too early to say if that would apply
here. However, in all circumstances, the UK’s ability to exercise its
sovereignty would remain unchanged and the UK would remain in control of
any future domestic decisions about national restrictions or other
measures.
If changes to UK law were considered necessary or appropriate to
reflect obligations under the treaty, proposals for domestic legislation
would go through the usual Parliamentary process and the UK would not
ratify the treaty until domestic measures, agreed by Parliament, were in
place.
This process of ratification allows scrutiny by elected
representatives of both the treaty and any appropriate domestic
legislation in accordance with the UK’s constitutional arrangements. The
Government does not consider a referendum is necessary, appropriate or
in keeping with precedent for such an agreement.
This petition has over 100,000 signatures. The Petitions Committee
will consider it for a debate. They can also gather further evidence and
press the government for action.
The UK government introduced to Parliament on Wednesday 13 jULY the Energy Security Bill, a proposed legislation that does not explicitly confirm the UK’s pledge to end coal use by October 2024.
The bill, the goal of which is to “deliver a cleaner, more affordable, and more secure energy system,” doesn’t mention coal, Bloomberg notes, while a spokesperson for the Department of Energy, Business and Industrial Strategy didn’t immediately respond to Bloomberg for comment.
The UK said last year it would bring forward its target to end coal use in electricity generation by one year, to October 2024, as part of its aim to lead the world in tackling climate change. The UK also tried to persuade countries in the COP-26 climate summit in Glasgow last autumn to pledge to ditch coal as soon as possible.
The UK has slashed coal use in the past decade as wind power has gained a massive market share in the country’s electricity generation.
On Monday 11 July, no power generated in Britain came from coal, system operator National Grid ESO said (this is bollocks but people believe it because they have been brainwashed,).
However, the gas and energy crisis in Europe and the cost-of-living crisis in the UK with soaring energy bills may have prompted the government to not explicitly pledge again an end to coal in two years’ time.
]
Natural gas held the largest share of power generation on Monday, at 35.6%, more than wind with 34.0%, according to National Grid ESO. You will notice that the bollocks figures given by National Grid here does not mention nuclear which generates around 20% of energy used on average and biomass which accounts for another 10%. What was happening is Nationa Grid which distributes energy from power stations to end users, aware that a hot day in summer, such as Monday, is always going to be a low demand day. So while all generating plants feed into the grid, surplus electricity goes down to earth. What the grid and government propagandists dis is say all wind generated electricity was used, none of the biomass or coal generated energy was used. However the case is that The Grid cannot distinguish between and amp of wind power, an amp of nuclear power or an amp of coal power.
Although the UK North Sea produces a lot of gas, Britain also relies on imports from Norway and gas imports via interconnectors from Belgium and the Netherlands during the winter months. A worsening of the current gas and energy crisis in mainland Europe would be felt throughout the UK, where customers are already grappling with a surge in the cost of living and the highest inflation in forty years.
The UK is also considering cutting off gas supply via two interconnectors to mainland Europe under an emergency plan that would be triggered in case of severe gas shortages in Britain, the Financial Times reported last week.
It is gratifying to not that while the Conservative Party chooses its new leader, who will become Prime Minister in due course, the interim government is pressing ahead with recommissioning gas wells in the North Sea and coal fired power stations while proposals for fracking are being re - evaluated.

Richard Lindzen - debunking climate scaremongering
Two highly respected climate scientists in the USA have debunked the peer
review system for current climate science research reporting as “a joke”. According
to Emeritus Professors William Happer and Richard Lindzen, “it is pal
review, not peer review," a comment that has been made many times about similar fields of scientific research in The UK and Europe.
Happer and Lindzen both have had long careers in physics and atmospheric science behind them and can point to track records of numerous publicationsd
back by evidence that their studies have been borne out by real world
data. “Climate science is awash
with manipulated data, which provides no reliable scientific evidence,”
they state.
No reliable scientific evidence to support Anthropogenic Global Warming theory or any of the numerous other scaremongering theories based on the idea that Carbon Dioxide emissions from human activity is causing catastrophic changes in the environment has ever been provided either by the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) which is
“government-controlled and only issues government dictated findings”, or by NASA, the USA's National Areonautics and Space Agency .
The two academics draw attention to an IPCC rule that states all
summaries for policymakers must be approved by governments. In their
opinion, these summaries are “merely government opinions”. They refer to
the recent comments on climate models by the atmospheric science
professor John Christy from the University of Alabama, who says that, in
his view, recent climate model predictions “fail miserably to predict
reality”, making them “inappropriate” to use in predicting future
climate changes.
The two physicists reserve their greatest scorn for the global surface temperature datasets on which all the failed predictions of the IPCC's pet scientists, rising temperatures, melting ice caps, rising sea levels, indundation of low lying land, submersion of island nations, famine and a huge refugee crisis, have been based. The pair highlight a 2017 paper
by Dr. James Wallace et al, that elaborated on how over the last
several decades, “NASA and NOAA have been fabricating temperature data
to argue that rising CO2 levels have led to the hottest year
on record”. The false and manipulated data are said to be an “egregious
violation of scientific method”.
It is notable that lay commentators like myself (and thousands of others,) though well educated have, on pointing out that the mathematical models are based on 'adjusted data' and therefore are suspect, are told that we are not climate scientists and therefore cannot understand 'how the science works.' Thus we should not attempt to comment on the issue.
The Wallace authors also looked at the UK
Meteorlogical Office HadCRUT database and found all three surface datasets made
large historical adjustments and removed cyclical temperature patterns.
This was “totally inconsistent” with other temperature data, including
satellites and meteorological balloons, they said. Readers will recall
that the Daily Sceptic has reported extensively on these issues of late and has attracted a number of ‘fact checks’ by NGOs of dubious credibility.
Happer and Lindzen summarise: “Misrepresentation, exaggeration,
cherry picking or outright lying pretty much covers all the so-called
evidence marshalled in support of the theory of imminent catastrophic
global warming caused by fossil fuels and CO2.”
The Professors' comments are included in a submission to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which is seeking to impose strict and closely monitored ‘climate change’ reporting requirements on public
companies. But they form part of a wider scientific revolt by many
scientists alarmed at the corruption of science to promote globalist political agendas such as Net Zero and Open Borders. Needless to say, these debates are seldom even mentioned by mainstream media which prefers to continue pushing the lie that on climate change 'The Science Is Settled.' The case is it never was settled.
The tactics of Global Warming scaremongers are straight out of the Frankfurt School playbook (or the simplified version, Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, a promer for wannabe tyrants and fascist bully boys. Opponents of Net Zero's politicised
science are denounced as ‘cranks’ and ‘deniers’, labels in this case at odds with
their distinguished scientific achievements. Between them, Happer from
Princeton and Lindzen from MIT have around 100 years of involvement in
atmospheric science. Richard Lindzen was an early lead author for the
IPCC, while William Happer was responsible for a groundbreaking
invention that corrected the degrading effects of atmospheric turbulence
on imaging resolution.
In their submission, Happer and Lindzen supply a basic lesson in
science: “Reliable scientific theories come from validating theoretical
predictions with observations, not consensus, peer review, government
opinions or manipulated data”.
Net Zero Is A Dangerous Fantasy, But Scientists Believe In Fairies It Seems With oil and gas prices rocketing and the highly propted sustainable energy sources performing way befow expectations the energy crisis currently gripping Europe (with worse to come as food shortages start to bite, polticians still seem more intent on pandering to the green lobby and chasing the dream of a fossil fuel free world rather securing the energy and food supplies needed by the people they serve.
New UN Report on Climate Change – Nothing New, Nothing True The latest United Nations (“UN”) Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (“IPCC”) report, published this week, once again, in scaremongering tone and the language of the panic stricken, claims that the planet is in peril (we are facing climate disaster, the clock is at one minute to midnight, we must take urgent action to destroy civilisation if we are to save the planet, the usual over - dramatised guff designed to spread fear and panic,) basically the same claim as they have been making at least twice a month for the past 20 years.
We need energy security – not Net Zero Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has prompted a major rethink in the West. We have suddenly found ourselves vulnerable not just to rising prices in oil and gas, but also to inflation in other commodities – such as food and fertiliser. Of all these problems, the security of our energy supply has most exercised minds.

Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions in the Arctic zone.

Green dreams of Heat PumpsContinue reading >>> When Boris Johnson revealed the UK Government plans for achieving 'net zero' carbon emissions by 2050 it emerged the much teased clean, green replacement for gas boilers as our main source of domestic heating is to be heat pumps. The Daily Stirrer counters the pseudo-scientific bollocks and reveals this 'new technology has been around for a hundred years.
Governments' obsession with climate pseudoscience over economically and social viable solutions is leading to disaster The government's current obsession with pursuing the target of net zero carbon emissions in order to claim the UK leads the world in green wankery is more to do with virtue signalling that governing, but with the complicity of mainstream media, particularly The BBC, climate scaremongering is providing a convenient diversion from this governments abject failure to address and of the very real economic and social problems facing us.
from The Daily Telegraph
As with membership of the EU, the political elite is imposing a revolution on the public without consent. Does the blob never learn? Voters don’t like being treated like naughty children
Green Dreams Menu It may be driven by virtue signalling or self hatred but the urge to destroy civilisation in order to save the planet and the ideological agenda that drive the gree movement are too far removed from the realities of life to ever achieve their aims.
Extinction Rebellion Wants To Destroy Civilization, Not Just Fossil Fuels Readers may find it hard to believe but while our attention has been focused on the coronavirus pandemic, other things have been happening. Recently the eco - crusties of EkSTIMKtion Rebellion have elbowed their way back into out consciousness and now, with Antifa and Black Lives Matter, form an unholy trinity of Marxist seditionist groups intent not only on destroying capitalism but destroying civilisation ...
When historians look back on this chaotic and turbulent period, they
will find that few individuals inflicted as much damage on the
environment and promoted the interests of the "dirty fossil fuel" lobby
as Greta Tunberg, who by shaming and forcing "serious" politicians to
pivot toward green energy at a time when there was nowhere near enough
green capacity to replace existing sources of energy, sparked what may
be the most spectacular self-own in history. And today, the WSJ, Bloomberg and Reuters all wrote about it.
We start with the WSJ which concedes what was obvious to most long ago (see "Will ESG Trigger Energy Hyperinflation"
from last June), namely that "an energy-starved world is turning to
coal as natural-gas and oil shortages exacerbated by Russia’s war
against Ukraine lead countries back to the dirtiest fossil fuel."
Yes,
contrary to the intentions of Green fanatics everywhere, their push to
accelerate away from "dirty" fossil fuel has not only backfired
spectacularly, but also exposed the hypocrisy and empty promises of so
many virtue-signalers, as "from the U.S. to Europe to China,
many of the world’s largest economies are increasing short-term coal
purchases to ensure sufficient supplies of electricity, despite prior
pledges by many countries to reduce their coal consumption to combat
climate change."
Adding insult to injury, the global competition for coal which is now also in short supply after years of declining investment in new mines and resources, has
driven benchmark prices to new records this year. Spot coal prices at
Australia’s Newcastle port, a key supplier to Asia, topped $400 a ton
for the first time last month.
Hilariously,
the push for coal is being led by Europe, ground zero of the "green
movement" which finally realized that one can't burn fake virtue or melt
posing in front of camera in the winter to keep warm, and is boosting
coal purchases to ensure it can keep power flowing to homes and
factories after Russia cut gas supplies to the continent. Germany, which
not long ago promised to eliminate coal as a power source by 2030, is
among the nations now importing more. Economy Minister Robert Habeck
called the increased reliance on coal bitter but necessary. Spoiler
alert: Germany will not eliminate coal as a power source by 2030, if
anything it will be more reliant on it than ever unless it also restarts
its nuclear power plants which it, idiotically, shut down not long ago.
Never
one to admit it was dead wrong, however, Europe has a response to
everything: “Right now the sentiment is that more coal is better than
more Russia,” said Alex Msimang, a London-based partner at law firm
Vinson & Elkins LLP specializing in the energy sector.
We need energy security – not Net Zero Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has prompted a major rethink in the West. We have suddenly found ourselves vulnerable not just to rising prices in oil and gas, but also to inflation in other commodities – such as food and fertiliser.

Another Kick In The Bollocks For Warmageddonists And CAGWARTS*
I've had many arguments with the Warmageddonists, the people who have been saying that if we did not shut down all coal, oil and gas related activites the earth was going to turn into a giant furnace and we would all burn. When the scaremongering first started, the deadline for frying was "after dinner". Then it got to "Tomorrow ...... or the day after tomorrow perhaps," then "next year", "before 2050," and eventually "soon."
The Great Wind Turbine Catastrophe
Because of failure to invest in new coal and nuclear powered generating plants to provide the electric energy we need Briain now faces a serious shortfall in electricity supply as old stations, already well past their planned lifespan are forced to close. Seduced by the voices of academics and the science lobby, the government seems foolishly determined to rely on wind turbines for future electricity needs.
After threatening to do so for a couple months now, Russia has pulled
the trigger on expanding the list of commodities for which it demands payment in rubles tonow include grain exports, effective Friday per a government legal website.
So
now grain, sunflower oil and extracted meal are the next to follow the
March decision to charge clients from "unfriendly" countries - including
major customers in Europe - in rubles for natural gas instead of the
normative dollars and euros.
On top of this move, recently
Agriculture Dmitry Patrushev announced that Russia's agricultural
products will go to "friendly countries" only, and according to "who needs it most" - a hugely significant statement sure to continue sowing uncertainty and chaos for the global food supply.
Via Farmdocdaily: Russia and Ukraine account for 14% of global wheat production and rank 1stand 5threspectively.
Both countries are prominent exporters, providing nearly 30% of global
wheat exports. The EU, U.S., and Canada are also major producers and
exporters of wheat. China and India are major wheat producers, but are
net importers and provide relatively small shares of global wheat
exports. Other countries with fairly large wheat export shares include
Australia (8.4%), Argentina (6.6%), Kazakhstan (4.1%), and Turkey (3.4%).
Russian state media detailed further
of the new decree published to a government law portal, "It also
provides for a one-year extension of duties to be paid in the national
currency in respect of exported sunflower oil and sunflower meal until
August 31, 2023."
And further, "As part of the new payment mechanism, the base price for
calculating the export duty on wheat will be 15,000 rubles (over $267)
per ton."
While Russia has blamed Western sanctions aiming to
punish and isolate the Russian economy for blowing back on the global
food supply, and especially the Middle East and African countries
already heavily reliant on Ukraine and Russia grain exports, G7
countries days ago at their summit in Germany blasted Moscow in a
statement for what it called "a geopolitically motivated attack on global food security." ... Continue reading >>>
“the texts that get published and, more importantly, the comments do
nothing but cement a general perception that everything is fucked”
That’s perhaps because everything ISfucked, Jaques.
Until sometime last year I guess, I was a prolific content creator,
posting on my own website and blogs and in various forums on current
affairs. Recently however, I find myself struggling to create something
once a week.
I’ve said all I have to say on climate change, COVID, going cashless,
the war on free speech, billionaire psychopaths buying influence over
government policy, net zero and green bollocks, Ukraine, Syria,
Brexit,The death of democracy etc. etc. yet we keep going around the
same loops as the people who control the narratives drag us back again
and again to their agendas.
If
countries in Europe are already beginning to ration certain things due
to “supply problems”, how long will it be before it starts happening in
the United States?
Up
until the past couple of years, many of us in the western world always
considered shortages to be something that only “unsophisticated” poor
countries on the other side of the planet had to deal with. But the
last couple of years have shown us that painful shortages can happen to
wealthy countries in the western world too. At first we were told that
they were “just temporary”, but the months went by and we just kept
having more shortages. In fact, in 2022 “supply problems” have become
so serious that many supermarkets in Europe have been forced to strictly
ration essential items at various times. For example, it was being
reported that due to the war in Ukraine flour, sunflower oil and sugar
were all being rationed by stores in Greece…
After
limiting the sale of some flours and sunflower oil online, Greek
supermarkets are turning to rationing the sale of sugar as well, now
including in their stores, over supply problems.
The AB
Vassilopoulos is setting a maximum limit on the purchase of all brands
of corn and sunflower oil and of flour per customer while Mymarket put a
ceiling on sunflower oil purchases and Sklavenitis has added sugar to
the rationed sales of corn oil through its online store, with a maximum
of four packs, the products in high demand from restaurants, some of
which said they have to stop selling french fries and other fried foods.
Over
the past few months we have seen similar measures implemented in other
major European nations as well. For example, the war in Ukraine
prompted some pretty severe rationing in Spain…
Sporadic
shortages of products like eggs, milk, and other dairy products also
hit Spain since the war in Ukraine began. And major supermarkets
including Mercadona and Makro began rationing sunflower oil earlier this
month.
Now, stores will temporarily be allowed to limit “the
number of goods that can be bought by a client,” according to
information in the Official State Gazette published on Wednesday.
Looking
forward, natural gas rationing is the next big thing that many people
in Europe are talking about. The flow of Russian natural gas into
Europe has been cut back, and it appears that this may soon cause
widespread rationing in Italy…
Italy
may start rationing natural-gas consumption to certain industrial
giants, after Russia’s Gazprom halved supplies on Friday.
On the
weekend, the newspaper Corriere della Sera reported that the Italian
government and energy industry would meet Tuesday and Wednesday to
discuss the crisis, with the likely outcome being the introduction of a
state of alert under the country’s gas emergency protocol.
And CNN is reporting that
Germany is “one step closer to rationing supplies” now that Russia has
decided to reduce the flow of natural gas going to that country…
Europe’s
biggest economy is now officially running short of natural gas and is
escalating a crisis plan to preserve supplies as Russia turns off the
taps.
Germany on Thursday activated the second phase of its
three-stage gas emergency program, taking it one step closer to
rationing supplies to industry — a step that would deliver a huge blow
to the manufacturing heart of its economy.
Of course
there are other parts of the globe that are dealing with problems that
are far, far more serious than what Europe is facing right now. ... Continue reading >>>
In
college, I took a Latin American Politics and Development class. When
discussing Latin American medical care, Professor Eldon Kenworthy
presented a deeply countercultural idea. Echoing a journal article by
the scholar, Robert Ayres, Kenworthy maintained that building hospitals
there costs lives. If, instead of erecting, equipping and staffing
gleaming medical centers, this same money and human effort were devoted
to providing clean water, good food and sanitation, the public health
yield would be much greater.
United States medical history bears
out Ayres’s paradox. The biggest increases in US life expectancy
occurred early in the Twentieth Century, when people had increasing
access to calories and protein, better water and sanitation. Lives
lengthened sharply decades before vaccines, antibiotics or nearly any
drugs were available, and a century before hospitals merged into
corporate Systems.
Incremental
American life span increases during the past fifty years reflect far
less smoking, safer cars and jobs, cleaner air and less lethal wars more
than they reflect medical advances. Books like Ivan Illich’s Medical Nemesis and Daniel Callahan’s Taming the Beloved Beast echo Ayres’s critique. But PBS, CNN, B & N, the NYT, et al. censor such views.
The American medical landscape has changed radically in the forty years since I learned of Ayres’ observation.
America spends three times as much, as a percentage of GDP, on medical treatments as it did in the 1960s.
By 2020, America devoted 18% of its GDP to medicine.
(By comparison, about 5% goes to the military). Adding the mega-costs
of mass testing and vaccines etc., medical expenditures might now
approach 20%. Although the US spends more than twice per capita what any
other nation spends on medical care, American ranks 46th in life expectancy.
US life expectancy has flatlined, despite growing medical spending and
broadened medical access via the vaunted Affordable Care Act.
Though
medicine’s high-cost and relatively low yield are right in front of
anyone who thinks about their medical experiences and those of people
they know, most never connect the dots; more medical treatments and
spending are continually advocated and applauded.
In April, free-market economists Phil Kerpen, Stephen Moore, and Casey B. Mulligan published a working paper for the National Bureau of Economic Research entitled “A Final Report Card on the States’ Response to COVID-19.”
Their report considered three variables for all 50 states and
Washington, D.C.: health outcomes (measured by adjusted mortality),
economic performance throughout the pandemic (measured by unemployment
and GDP), and the pandemic effect on education (measured by the
percentage of cumulative in-person instruction). The authors
investigated the relationships among the three variables using simple linear regression,
a tool to summarize and study relationships between two continuous
variables. This method yields a correlation coefficient that rates both
the strength and the direction of the relationship between the two
variables.
The results: locked-down economies did not have better health
outcomes, open schools were slightly negatively correlated with health
outcomes, and the lockdown of schools and economies were highly
correlated. ... Continue reading >>>
World
Economic Forum technocrats are urging people to ditch meat and other
foods deemed to be harmful to the planet and instead consume “climate
beneficial foods” such as seaweed, algae and cacti.
The WEF made the call as it wrapped up the 2022 meeting of global elitists in Davos, Switzerland.
A
video summary was posted to Twitter in which the WEF promoted
alternatives to a food system it claimed is responsible for two thirds
of global carbon dioxide emissions.
A starter list published by the organization
triumphs algae as being “an ideal replacement for meat” because it has a
“carbon-negative profile” and is high in “essential fatty acids and
high vitamin and antioxidants content.”
The guide also
highlights cacti as containing “high amounts of vitamins C and E,
carotenoids, fibre and amino acids,” noting that it is already commonly
eaten in Mexico.
“This food crisis is real, and we must find solutions,” World Trade Organization Director-General Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala said.
Back in December 2020, the World Economic Forum published two
articles on its website which explored how people could be conditioned
to get used to the idea of eating weeds, bugs and drinking sewage water
in order to reduce CO2 emissions.
Earlier this year, Vanderbilt University Professor Amanda Little argued that
everyone in the world needs to start dining on insects and that the
EU’s approval of them conferred a form of “dignity” to their
consumption.
In some of the Kremlin's strongest words yet denouncing Western arms
shipments, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov warned Ukraine that
newly ramped up arms transfers including US missile systems being sent
to Kiev risks drawing a third country into the war.
In the Wednesday statements, he accused Ukraine of seeking to involve outside countries, and slammed the missile transfer as marking a 'direct provocation'. His words come on the heels of Biden on Tuesday night announcing
longer range missile systems for Ukraine, which however likely can't
reach Russian territory, given they are short to "medium range" systems.
Moscow previously called the White House's expressed desire to avoid
direct confrontation with Russia a "rational" policy.
But
Lavrov took the opportunity to warn hawks both in the US and Europe: "I
will say it frankly: not everyone in the European Union, especially in 220601/lavrov-slams-kievs-demands-for-foreign-mlrs-as-direct-provocation-1095922146.html">according
As I warned in my February article Russia Is A Major Supplier Of Oil To The U.S.,
Russia could potentially benefit from the sanctions on its oil exports.
Although Russia hadn’t yet invaded Ukraine when I wrote that article, I
warned that if it did:
“Russian
sanctions would be put in place, potentially reducing the available oil
supply in a tight market. If Russia could still sell all the oil it
could produce to countries that refuse to abide by the sanctions, it
might do well financially with an oil price spike.”
We now have data in hand to confirm that the subsequent sanctions on Russia’s oil are in fact boosting Russia’s oil revenues:
New data! #Russia's
oil and gas revenues hit another record high in April. 1.8 trillion
rubles in a single month, after 1.2 trillion in March. After only 4
months, Russia's federal #budget has now already received 50% of the planned oil and gas revenue for 2022 (9.5 trillion). pic.twitter.com/DKUGClchWG
Although
the U.S. has stopped buying Russian oil, the challenge remains that
Russia is one of the largest global producers and exporters of oil.
There is no way to completely remove Russian oil from the market without
sending oil prices much higher — perhaps to $200 a barrel.
Further,
as oil prices go higher it increases the appeal of Russia’s oil. Right
now, China and India, for example, have tremendous incentive to buy
discounted Russian oil.
In
other words, it is a classic catch-22. In attempting to punish Russia by
keeping its oil off the market, Russia is enjoying a net benefit of
higher oil revenues.
That’s
not to say that other sanctions aren’t having the desired impact. By all
accounts, life is becoming more difficult in Russia due to the many
sanctions that have been put in place.
But
in a world that is still heavily dependent on oil, the only way to
effectively impact Russia’s oil revenues is to reduce global dependence on oil.
MORE ON RUSSIA - UKRAINE
A British university is reportedly instructing
students studying to become midwives (since when was a university degree needed to be a midwife?) on how to deliver babies from a
“birthing persons” with a penis.
Edinburgh Napier University's 'skills workbook' issued to midwifery BSc students has come under fire from the sane community in Scotland after it was revealed that students were instructed on how to assist biological males in
giving birth. Now you might think that anybody sudying towards a degree in any of the natural or applied sciences would be aware that a biological male cannot give birth, but in the wonderful world of woke wankers such things are possible, you just have to make a wish and get Tinkerbellend to sprinkle fairy dust on the expectant mothers knob.
The teaching resource, copies of which which were obtained from students by the feminist website Reduxx, stated:
“It is important to note that while most times the birthing person will
have female genitalia, you may be caring for a pregnant or birthing
person who is transitioning from male to female and may still have
external male genitalia.”
The manual went on to instruct the midwifery students that they
should be familiar with how to use catheters for “both female and male
anatomy”. It added that because, they claimed, both men and women can
give birth, it would be referring to those in labour as a “birthing
person”.
The website noted that while the university later amended the
instructions to “female to male” transgender patients instead of “male
to female”, all the references to how to handle the penis and other
parts of the male anatomy such as the prostate gland remained in the
text.
It also inserted a section explaining that female to male transgender
patients may have to give birth through an artificially constructed
“penis” (and what are the dick of these chicks-with-dicks going to give birth to? Tadpoles? Have you ever taken a close look at the hole in the end of a willie? OK, now imagine getting a 7,6 or even 5 pound baby through that.
The woke lunacy of the guide was criticised by Elaine Miller of the Chartered Society
for Physiotherapy, who noted that the instructions were biologically
incoherent and warned of the potential negative side effects for
transgender people attempting to give birth.
“It is not possible for a male person to get pregnant,” Miller said.
“A [biological female] with a gender difference can become pregnant but will not
have male genitalia.”
“Most [females] who use testosterone, at the doses used for
‘transition,’ will develop vaginal atrophy. The fragile tissue of an
atrophied vagina may be unable to stretch to accommodate a baby’s head,”
Miller added, noting that biological female transgender people may rip,
suffering “new types of birth injury”.
Emeritus Professor in Obstetrics and Women’s Health at King’s College
London, Dr Susan Bewley also took aim at the instructions, noting that
many women who undergo transition surgery also undergo an hysterectomy
and therefore physically can not give birth.
“These materials are the opposite of the high-quality training that
patients need from midwives and doctors. The project may have arisen
from compassion and enthusiasm, but it is worrying that the writers
don’t seem to know, care about, or check facts.”
Not knowing or caring about facts as they rewrite the medical and scientific text books is typical of the scientific community of course, all these education hating charlatans care about is amassing enough 'woke' brownie points with politicians to ensure the research grants keep flowing and their easy, privileged lives continue.
Meanwhile as the politicisation of everything project rolls on, midwives across Britain have been told by a
government-sponsored report from the LGBT Foundation that they should
refrain from using gendered language, including phrases such as
“breastfeeding” and “vaginal birth” to make transgender people feel more
comfortable, LBC reported.
The report suggested using more inclusive phrases such as “chestfeeding” and “frontal or lower birth”. Doesn't it make you just want to get hold of the authors of this shite and keep punching their heads until brains run down their noses.
Leading doctors working in the UK’s National Health Service have said they back taxpayer-funded womb transplants for biological males who identify as women and think a bit of surgery and a daily does of hormone tablets can turn them into real, child bearing women. Experts at parting the gullible and emotionally immature from their hard …

Nonconformity and Freethinking Now Considered Mental Illnesses
We've been here before of course, shrinks and head quacks are now trying to say everything you do can be interpreted as a sign of mental illness.

How the gay-marriage campaign has unleashed a bureaucratic assault on people's identities
Do gooders, progressives and bleeding hearts hurl hatred at those who question gay mariage. But these politically correct fools have as usual wallowed in their own self righteousness too long without thinking of the social consequences of this law which will devalue mainstream society to set up the gay community as a precious little elite
The politics of the left is the politics of insanity, we have been reporting on this for fifteen years (nine as The Daily Stirrer, before that as Little Nicky Machiavelli. And things are getting worse rather than improving. Every day we hear of some new politically correct idiocy from government or from NGOs set up … Continue reading
Homosexuality: As a liberal society we have a duty to tolderate, not celebrate
Even though the government has accepted a very limited definition of same sex marriage the gay lobby keeps raving on about the greates non issue of all time. But in a free society should we be subjected to bullying if we do not show enough enthusiasm for homosexual and lesbian relationships? When did indifference become a hate crime?
Gay and same sex marriage: The Bigotry And Intolerance Of Those Who Describe Themselves As The Liberal Left
With same sex marriage made legal in Britain we face the same kind of witch hunts against businesses that do not want to deal with beareded queens in bridal gowns as the liberal bigots and gay nazis are launching in the USA. As many of us new media common sense merchants predicted, once the principle was accepted in law, nobody would be allowed to opt out of supporting these bullies.
At Glasgow's COP26 conference last year, the leaders of 40 nations went though the meaningless biannual ritual of agreeing to phase coal out of their national energy policies in order to achieve the pointless and economically catastrophic for developed nations ambition of reaching 'net zero' on carbon emissions by the end of this century.
However, as Visual Capitalist's Bruno Venditti details below, despite all the grandiose pledges, in 2021 coal-fired electricity generation reached all-time highs globally, showing that eliminating coal from the energy mix is easily said but cannot be done simply by moving coal burning industries from the developed nations to emerging and third world economies.
The
infographic below, from Elements Visual Capitalists shows the aggressive phase-out of coal power that would be
required in order to reach net zero goals by 2050, based on an analysis
by Ember that uses data provided by the International Energy Agency (IEA).
Low-Cost Energy Carries a High Environmental Cost
Coal-powered
electricity production increased by 9.0% in 2021 to 10,042 Terawatt-hours
(TWh), the biggest percentage rise since 1985.
The main
reason for this reserugence of dear reliable Old King Coal is cost. Coal is the world’s most affordable energy fuel due to the energy intensity of this highly compressed form of carbon. Environmentalist doom mongers and the unwashed crusties of the anti fossil fuel movement claim that low-cost energy comes at a high cost for the environment,
with coal being the largest source of energy-related CO2 emissions. This is unscientific bollocks. In the past coal was a cheap, dirty fuel that pumped many real pollutants as well as Carbon Dioxide (CO2) which is essential to the continuance of life, into the atmosphere.Throughout the 1970s and 80s however, coal powered industried cleaned up their act, introducing technologies to remove various pollutants from their emissions until only CO2, the essential building material for all carbon based life forms (and ALL life forms, on this planet at least, are carbon based,) remained for the habitual whingers and virtue signallers to whinge and virtue signal about.
China currently has the highest coal consumption, making up 54% of the world’s coal electricity generation.
The country’s consumption jumped 12% between 2010 and 2020, despite
coal making up a lower percentage of the country’s energy mix in
relative terms and the ruling Chinese Communist Party has no plans to cease or slow down its building onf new coal fired power stations.
Together,
China and India account for 66% of global coal consumption and emit
about 35% of the world’s greenhouse gasses (GHG). If you add the United
States to the mix, this goes up to 72% of coal consumption and 49% of
GHGs.
According to the United Nations,
emissions from current and planned fossil energy infrastructure are
already more than twice the amount that would push the planet over 1.5°C
of global heating, a level that scientists say could bring more intense
heat, fire, storms, flooding, and drought than the present 1.2°C. This is calculated by scientists who, in the style of all modern science, look at output from mathematical models rather than empirical evidence. So far three decades worth of predictions based on mathematical models of reality have not produced one correct result.
The Transition to Renewables
According to The Science (that is the science of guesswork and wishful thinking,) Coal-powered
electricity generation must fall by 13% every year until 2030 to
achieve the Paris Agreement’s goals of keeping global heating to only
1.5 degrees.
To reach the mark, countries would need to speed up
the shift from their current carbon-intensive pathways to unreliable and intermittent energy sources like wind and solar.
How fast the transition away
from coal will be achieved depends on a complicated balance between
carbon emissions cuts and maintaining economic growth, the latter of
which is still largely dependent on coal power. It is possible of course that as a result of the energy crisis triggered by the war in Ukraine revealing just how dependent of fossil fuels the developed nations are, the politicians will come to their senses, sack their idiotic science advisers and fund development of clean coal powered generation technologies as well as returning to totally CO2 free, (but equally hated by the green wankers,) nuclear.
After several weeks of Islamist riotsingacross Sweden, triggered by nationalist groups burning copies of The Koran in protest at the Islamification of Swedish institutions, Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson surprised the nation when she admitted that there
are now “parallel societies” within her country – the first time a European leader has acknowledged the existence of Europe’s infamous ‘no-go zones’.
*****
In response to Danish anti-Islam activist Rasmus Paludan and his
followers burning a Qur’an earlier this month, widespread riots engulfed
the Scandinavian country, with places like
Malmo, Linköping, Norrköping, and Rinkeby seeing days of violence over
the Easter weekend in which over 100 police officers were injured.
Commenting on the growing unrest among the Muslim population of
Sweden, which has surged significantly as a result of the pro-migration
policies since the height of European Migrant Crisis in 2015-16, Prime
Minister Magdalena Andersson said on Thursday that there are “strong
forces that are ready to go to great lengths to harm our society.”
“Segregation has been allowed to go so far that Sweden now has parallel societies,” Andersson said according to Aftonbladet. “We live in the same country but in completely different realities.”
“Integration has been too poor while we have had large-scale migration. Society has also been too weak,” she went on to admit.
Currently around one-fifth of the population, or two million people,
in Sweden were born abroad, with more coming from migration-background
families.
After years of negative impacts on social cohesion, the government
has sought to enact stricter migration controls, such as placing limits
on those seeking permanent residency.
The admissions from the leftist prime minister represent one of the
closest acknowledgements from the government as to the actual existence
of migrant-dominated no-go zones in Sweden.
Bill Gates Developing Virus & Vaccine For Next Pandemic, Wants Global Surveillance Pact with W.H.O. Travk Vaccine Refusniks
We, The Resistance, need to start preparing our campaign tactics now for the appearance of “even
more fatal” variants of coronavirus in the future. The warning can be taken as implicit in the latest megalomaniacal babblings from billionaire psychopath and wannabe Emperor of The Universe Bill Gates, who revealed in a talk on Sunday 1 May, that
international health surveillance through technology and massive, propaganda led vaccination campaigns to be developed by increased funding for the
World Health Organization (W.H.O.) is one way to forestall pandemic
outbreaks.
The Microsoft founder said, somewhat ridiculously, he did not want to sound “doom and gloom”
but did exactly that in warning there was a risk an “even more transmissive and even more
fatal” variant could be generated. This could safely be taken as an admission that biotech firms owned by The Gates Foundation are already simultaneously developing the virus that will drive this pandemic and the vaccines that will serve to make people with functioning immune systems vulnerable to the genetically engineered virus.
Gates told the Financial Times (FT) in an interview
the risk of that happening is “way above five per cent” and would mean
the world has yet to see the worst of the pandemic, if his predictions
are correct (or even coherent would be a good start.).
He also cautioned that while the war in Ukraine dominates the
international agenda, global leaders should not to lose sight of the
health crisis, even as he flies around the world relentlessly lecturing
about climate issues. Again this sounds like an announcement that his teams of mad scientists are already working on plans for the new pandemic.
Calling for greater investment to prevent future pandemics, Gates told
the FT “It
seems wild to me that we could fail to look at this tragedy and not, on
behalf of the citizens of the world, make these investments.”
He acknowledged there were questions over whether an international
consensus could be reached to increase funding for W.H.O. at its base in
Geneva, Switzerland. However, The most pertinent question, how can Gates be so certain another, even more deadly pandemic caused by a news COVID variant is on the way if he is not involved in planning it, was not raised.
How many more young lives will be sacrificed on Gates’s vaccine altar? It’s remarkable that the man who has become the unelected global health czar and population control advocate is not being questioned on his past more closely. Though we are living through a crisis predicted by Gates and a response triggered and bankrolled by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which are driving us towards a vaccination and biometric ID solution which Gates has been working on for years, he’s still regarded as a benign philanthropist.
Critics Batter The Fake Science Used To Justify The Lockdown As Boris Waffles Regular readers may recall this blog was among the first to expose the fact that the pandemic model predicting 500,000 COVID – 19 deaths if the entire nation was not placed under indefinite house arrest was based on a deeply flawed mathematical model of the pandemic built by a “scientist” at Imperial College, London, a college heavily reliant on funding from the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation. You may also recall we have reported on the determination of psychopathic megalomaniac Gates to insert himself into this phoney crisis

Algorithms Are No Better At Telling The Future Than Tarot Cards Or A Crystal Ball According to a new report “An increasing number of businesses are investing in advanced technologies that can help them forecast the future of their workforce and gain a competitive advantage”. Almost every day we see more bollocks being written by supposedly intelligent people who believe that by using things called ‘Data Science’, ‘Artificial Intelligence,’ and ‘Big Data’, machines can already be relied on to make better decisions than humans, and that soon computers will equal or even surpass us in actual intelligence. ...

Proof That The Alarmist Claptrap You Are Hearing And Seeing At COP26 Climate Conference Is A Load Of Bollocks The Arctic ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some places, the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the Commerce Department yesterday from Consul Ifft, at Bergen, Norway. Reports from fishermen, seal hunters and explorers all point to a radical change in climate conditions in the Arctic zone. Expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met with as far north as 81 degrees 29 minutes. Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm ... Continue reading >>>
Green dreams of Heat PumpsContinue reading >>> When Boris Johnson revealed the UK Government plans for achieving 'net zero' carbon emissions by 2050 it emerged the much teased clean, green replacement for gas boilers as our main source of domestic heating is to be heat pumps. The Daily Stirrer counters the pseudo-scientific bollocks and reveals this 'new technology has been around for a hundred years.
Sweden Cancels Bill Gates Geoengineering Plan To Block Sun & Stop Global Warming
from Great Game India Bill Gates has proposed and funded a geoengineering experiment to determine whether blotting out the Sun with aerosols could reverse global warming. This experiment was undertaken by Sweden’s space agency. But now they have called off this project as they are facing a great opposition from the environmental activists. The experiment … Continue reading

In another example of the insane and fantaical religious fervour of those who support the vaccine industry by hating anyone who questions anything about vaccines, the corporate media prostitutes of the Boston Herald's editorial staffny have used their print editions to call for what the murder of anyone who questions the safety or efficiency of vaccines or opposes plans to legally mandate vaccinating entire populations (such as those proposed by Bill Gates through his Gates Foundation.)The killings would be carried out by government sanctioned execution squads to eliminate scientists, naturopaths, chiropractors and any journalists fool enough to question the safety of injecting children with mercury, a brain-damaging toxin still found in flu shot vaccines administered to children and expectant mothers, and other neurotoxins.
The Absurdity Of Vaccine Passports, Lockdowns and Segregating The UnvaxxedAfter reintroducing lockdowns from the beginning of this week in its two regions with the highest rates of COVID cases, Austria today became the first country in western Europe to reimpose a full, national lockdown which will start on Monday, November 22.

Boris’ Government Trying To Bypass Parliament, Introduce Vaccine Passports By Back Door We warned you this authoritarian government would not let the idea of vaccine passports go and here they are, reported by Summit News (well you didn't expect to see it in mainstream media did you?} tyring to bring in their wretched "Papers Please" legislation by the back door.
Italy Mandates COVID-19 Vaccine Passports For All Private Sector Workers 17 September: Italys undemocratically appointed left wing government yesterday (16 September) approved new and restrictive rules using the COVID-19 pandemic as an excise for this lurch towards fascism. The new rules which are aning the strictest in the world, in the world mandate that all private and public sector employees get the vaccine and show proof of vaccination, a negative test, or a recent recovery from infection, officials said.
Turning the Tide? No Vaccine Passporrts for England; US States rebel against Biden Vaccine Mandates; September 12: The British government will not mandate vaccine passports for nightclubs, cinemas, and other large public venues in England after all, Health Secretary Sajid Javid announced on Sunday. Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government has backtracked on controversial plans to introduce vaccine passports domestically and is set to end draconian emergency powers given to the state under the Coronavirus Act, in a major concession to anti-lockdown factions within the Conservative Party.
Sweden’s
failure to properly integrate large numbers of migrants has led to the
creation of parallel societies and gang violence, according to left-wing
Swedish Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson.
Andersson
made the comments in the aftermath of nationwide riots by migrant gangs
over the Easter weekend that left a hundred police officers wounded.
Sweden’s
approach to Islamic extremism and its failings in accommodating large
numbers of migrants is the primary cause of the disorder, according to
the Prime Minister.
“Segregation has gone so far that we have parallel societies in Sweden. We live in the same country, but different realities,” said Andersson.
“Integration
was poor, and alongside, we have experienced intense immigration. Our
society was too weak, while money for the police and social services too
little,” she added.
As we previously highlighted,
German media outlets responded to violent riots in Sweden mainly
involving Muslim migrants by claiming the unrest occurred as a result of
“right-wing demos.”
Ukrainian refugees also expressed the desire to avoid being sent to Sweden, feeling that it was too unsafe.
Having
been one of the safest countries in Europe 20 years ago before mass
uncontrolled immigration, Sweden is now the continent’s second most
dangerous in terms of gun crime behind only Croatia.
Last year, Germany’s Bild newspaper ran the headline: ‘Sweden is the most dangerous country in Europe.’
Shootings
in Sweden hit a record high last year as authorities are increasingly
unable to contain migrant gang crime. There were 46 homicides committed
in 335 shootings across the country, with most of them occurring in the
migrant hotspots of Malmö, Gothenburg, and Stockholm.
“Swedish
residents born in another country have doubled to 2 million in the last
two decades, and immigrants now represent one-fifth of all people
living in this Scandinavian country, a far higher rate than neighboring
countries like Finland, Norway, and Denmark, which have all taken a
harder line against immigration,” reports RMX News.
“For the past 40 years, the prime minister’s social democrats have been in power for 28 years, including the last eight.
in mid-2021, corn had already nearly doubled in price and wheat had soared almost 40%.
This was well before any of the bankers started blaming Russia for
soaring wheat and corn staples because of the Russia invasion of Ukraine
at the end of February of this year. This should clearly show the
absurd obscenity of the Central Banker narrative of blaming ongoing mass
global starvation on the Russians. Over a year ago, I could not have
been more explicit in explaining that Central Bankers’ massive
devaluations of fiat currency purchasing power along with the
establishments’ immoral covid lockdowns were the primary culprits, not
those “evil” Russians, were responsible for “imped[ing] the
ability of hundreds of millions around the world that most desperately
need to work to purchase food, [thus creating] a lethal combination [of]
mass hunger and starvation.”
And
if the above referenced chart doesn’t convince you that Central Bankers
were the primary cause of life-squeezing inflation around the world
well before the Russians invaded Ukraine, then just take a look at
another chart I compiled which clearly illustrates the runaway inflation
in the US and the incredible shrinking dollar since 1975. Are the Central Bankers going to blame the below runaway prices on the Russians too?
Furthermore,
those incredibly naïve and ignorant masses that believe the
banker-controlled mass media narratives that the Russians are to blame
for mass starvation around the world have little to zero knowledge about
the true price mechanisms of major food staples, and instead, believe
the garbage they learned in their MBA business programs about this
topic. For example, most among us are unaware that global grain
distribution is widely controlled in monopolistic fashion by just four
companies - Archer-Daniels Midland, Bunge, Cargill, and Dreyfus – and
due to this monopoly, that these companies can conspire to heavily
influence the prices of the world’s major food staples.
In fact, all of these companies retain grain reserves that they could release to ease soaring prices and to help the starving, but for obvious reasons, safeguard and do not publicly disclose this information.
Due to the sole purpose of global companies to maximize shareholder
value, it behooves these companies to artificially push prices as high
as possible at all times, even if such actions lead to mass starvation
around the world. Since the data regarding their grain reserves remains
unknown, I’m not claiming that these companies engage in this type of
immoral behavior, but it’s quite obvious that they would maximize
shareholder value by doing so, and doing so quite frequently.
It
requires only a modicum of knowledge about industry wide practices to
imagine that these four companies employ similar methodologies of
creating artificially higher food prices to the alleged methodologies
employed by JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs bankers in artificially driving
aluminum prices higher before offloading them for massive profits. For
many years, those companies that needed aluminum supply alleged that
Wall Street bankers were artificially driving prices up by multiples of a
free market price by hoarding aluminum in non-publicly disclosed
warehouses and refusing to allow millions of tons of aluminum to enter
the market. Other billionaires around the world have done the same with
metals and grains, with China’s hoarding of aluminum and soybeans to
artificially drive prices higher well documented. Of course, all
behavior of this type is morally repugnant, but the mass media
continuously compartmentalizes its judgment about such behavior by
absolving all Westerners of such behavior while condemning all those in
non-NATO nations that do the same. In other words, mass media
journalists lack any moral compass and seem to think that moral
repugnancy does not cross transnational borders from East to West, from
South to North, and that moral repugnancy only dwells in the Eastern
and Southern hemispheres and in developing nations.
