OK, with Christmas done and dusted, now is the time to return to the hard realities ... well, certainly hard as opposed to easy, but maybe not hard as in 'we can physically hit it and we hurt'.

So set aside all that left-over Christmas pudding that we couldn't face down on top of all the previous courses (not to mention glasses) that we faced down pre-yesterday (there, I gave us a day already to recover), we have serious, and yes, difficult, concepts to bend our minds around going forward. And best to get our poor heads around it whilst still feeling at least slightly mellow, so we may approach it in relaxed fashion and regard it without the usual 'that's way too hard for me just now' feeling that means that we never get started.

This is, fairly exceptionally, one for the dyed-in-the wool conspiracy theorists, so listen up. The rest us can sit back, relax, and continue in mellow tranquillity with whatever we were going to do today - this is way too deep for us.

Still with me? Good.

Now let me say straight away that there are assertions here with which I / we may not concur, but the main thrust of it does seem compelling, once we grasp it. And it "changes everything" (sorry for that hackneyed phase) depending on whether or not we already knew it, even if we hadn't already formed the definition into words.  

Still, it does offer some thoughts about how we might make sense of some of the major "rich and famous" personalities (eg: Elon Musk) who make the global news (traditional, social, and corporate).

It also raises some interesting questions about how we "conspiracy theorists" should proceed ... but those are beyond the scope of the article.

So grasp the moment, open Pandora's Box, and dive in!

Dominic Cummins, "enfant terrible" of the Boris government, explains the workings by which the UK government is run.

What does this tell us about the current "government"?

Does it amount to institutionalised fraud, protected by plausible deniability?

Or worse?

Covid is the topic that divides the world.

Actually, the world divides itself into two camps - those who don't want to know regardless of the arguments, and those who are prepared to think the unthinkable, or perhaps merely just to look at it to check how unthinkable the unthinkable may actually be. I'm sure that there cannot be a single person alive who doesn't know people close to them in both camps.

It's not a race thing, it's not a left/right thing, it's not a religious thing, but it is possibly a maturity thing in so far as a child when faced with an unfamiliar intrusion (such as a less than familiar Nana and Grandad arriving on a too infrequent visit!) will cling to the familiar comfort of Mum or Dad to save them from the unfamiliar threat, whilst an adult would face the intrusion, try to understand it, and decide accordingly how to react.

The adult is responsible, the child is still neither responsible nor competent.

Maturity is not an on/off switch, it's an attitude to life which is learned and honed through experience over many years. There is in fact no end-point (perhaps not even death!) to this learning and honing experience.

It's never to late to learn more; after all this time, it doesn't look like it's going to go away just yet. And after all, how bad can it really be?

Turkey (no, not the Christmas dinner fowl) is much in focus this week as President Erdoğan is reported to be seen as "encircling" Israel ...   so it's the battle of the Zionists against the Islamists that's taking shape. Not that the "Christian" religions are faring any better - it seems that bankruptcies hold no religious preferences.

So how will Turkey fare in taking advantage of current Middle-Eastern geopolitics to rekindle some of the old Ottoman Empire?

And just what is Elon Musk the maverick mogul up to just now? (Modest subscription required for full access)
