  • But We Can't Eat Last Year's Sunshine!

    2026-07-12

    Sunshine grows the crops that we eat, our farm animals eat, and allows our countryside to thrive.

    When Ed Milibrain has covered the land with solar panels that produce power when we don't really need it (summer and long summer daytime) and frankly very little to none when we do need it (winter and long night-time) what will we eat in the winter when the crops we could have grown in the summer on that same land no longer exist? 

    It's not as though the power stations won't be there, since they will be required in the winter and the night-time, when the sun doesn't shine and the wind doesn't blow. They will just be sitting expensively idle in the summer daylight... they certainly won't be making up for the lost food supply.

    How will this increase our national resilience in an increasingly turbulent world?

    There are no prizes for the right answer, but anyone who can point up the absurdity of this policy of

  • Power Equals Prosperity

    2026-06-28

    It's simple.

    In a civilisation that inhabits an uncertain world, the supply of power makes the difference between carrying on almost as normal regardless of the salient ambient conditions, or having to keep shutting down because of them. 

    And for most practical purposes (especially in a world besotted by a completely irrational fear of "climate change") power means that delivered by wires. So our governments have simultaneously increased the loading on the grid whilst replacing reliable electricity generation with erratic wind and solar...  whilst also adding power-hungry AI data centres to the mix.

    What could possibly go wrong?

    What could possibly go right?

    Nick Hubble spells it out.

     

  • The Real Trouble with Technocracy

    2026-06-26

    Patrick Wood has been tracking those who would run the world by AI for some time.

    He's been right and is still right to do so - our understandings of AI and indeed "quantum computing" are still in their infancy, and whilst it is certainly true that the technocrats never had either the data or the science or the computing power to run the world, it was always feasible that they would simply pretend to do so and place us on the wrong end of a "computer says no" social control system that in effect could be neither realistically nor practically challenged.

    That feasibility still exists if we fall for it by unthinking and ill-advised compliance.

    "The system they wanted — a society run as an engineering problem, every resource metered, every flow optimized, every decision computed rather than argued — required a machine that could calculate the whole of an economy in real time. That machine did not exist"

    The Trouble With Pollitics as Established

    2026-06-26

    A thoughtful piece by Paul Cudenec encapsulates the problem with our current world.

    What is freedom?

    Is the Left or the Right more supportive of freedom?

    How should government be reformed?

    I find his homily very welcome indeed, and wish that we could actually begin to ask the right questions, rather than struggling to make sense of sundry answers to all the wrong questions about which governing bodies of all kinds are so keen to saturate our discussions.

    Nicola Tesla, electrical genius, work lost to history etc.

    Researcher of Tartarian buildings worldwide.

    "Tesla believed by the end of his life that modern civilization had experienced a technical collapse sometime in the early to mid 1800s"

    Perhaps at the same time that Tartaria disappeared from world atlasses, leaving their surviving buildings to become railway stations, cathedrals, and imposing seats of government bodies?

    And will Donald Trump have something to show us soon enough up in Washington DC?

     

  • The True Cost of Achieving ... Nothing of Significance

    2026-06-22

    For some years now I have bee convinced that Government is simply a vast money-laundering racket to filch what wealth the population at large has away and into the hands of the "elite" - those who want absolute control over everybody and everything.

    Don't believe me? 

    Don't remember the eye-watering sums fast-tracked by government for emergency supplies of PPE gear for "our" NHS, purchased regardless of cost from newly-formed supply companies which had seemingly suddenly sprung up for the purpose, owned by those who had no track record in supplying such goods? Goods which were inevitably sourced from China?

    Could they not have been sourced direct from China at considerably lower cost directly by the NHS itself?

    I'm not saying that fortunes were made overnight, but it's hard to see how they

    Is "the Blob" capable of facing and correcting its own egregious errors?

    I'm not holding my breath.

    It will be up to parents and guardians to break the news as gently as possible to their offspring, and to explain how it came about. There's plenty of ideas on this site... and plenty to challenge those "little grey cells" that now have a critical job to do.

    And there's no time like the present. Indeed, its the only time we ever have.

    Well - if we don't like the government, we can vote them out of office - so it's our fault.

    Well, no we can't. The candidates at election time are almost invariably selected by the political parties, and then controlled in how they vote by those same political parties. They are not our representatives, they are the political party's representatives.

    And when all the political parties somehow support the nonsense (eg:"the green agenda" or "sustainable development") of the oligarchical would-be global government,

  • Climate Change May be Fading, but Geopolitical Chaos Is Just Getting Started

    2026-05-19

    The IPCC may have had second thoughts but the crisis in the Gulf continues.

    Will 2026 become renowned for a Summer of Discontent as fuel prices rocket, a farming crisis takes hold, food shortages arise, pubs close, and the Starmer not-a-government stumbles incompetently onward regardless of anything but its own survival, even at the cost of allowing Ed Miliband to "take charge"? 

    "In office but not in power" springs to mind.

    If all this serves to finally wake the people to the notion that this kind of government by incompetent complexity has reached the end of its road, and needs replacing by something more simple, more direct, more honest, and even actually responsive to the basic needs of the people, then perhaps finally some good may emerge from the wreckage.

    Climate Change is so Last Year. Even Last Century.

    Even the IPCC is recanting.

    But not our redoubtable Ed Miliband, who it seems is made of sterner stuff.

    And indeed, who is to say who is right and who is wrong?

    Perhaps those whom Ed the IYI insists on dragging remorselessly ever deeper into his government-mandated whirlpool of subsidies cross-charges and opaque pricing mechanisms that somehow purport to show that by paying for more subsidies more grid infrastructure thousands of miles of pylons and millions of windmills that wont work when the wind doesn't blow (not to mention more charges for turning off windmills when the wind blows too hard) the much-patronised consumers will actually pay less for their electricity... ?

  • Civilisational Attenuation - Inevitable Trap?

    2026-05-10

    Martin Geddes has documented how modern-day institutions can operate in degraded mode, delivering a performance that looks genuine in procedural terms but is degraded in philosophical and spiritual terms:

    On The Autonomous Evil of Unthinking Institutions

    His latest foray into this line of argument categorises this thinking as a "category error" - an error introduced by introducing a closure based upon answering of the inappropriate question. For example, an applicant asks a relevant question of officialdom but uses the wrong procedure to do so - instead of diverting the request into the "correct" procedure, the system responds by denying the request on procedural grounds.

  • Climate Catastrophism Capsizes - What Will We do Now?!

    Of whom now will we make fun since the "great and the good" turn out to be the brain-dead charlatans that we always suspected?

    Don't they realise that miscreant unbelievers like us will now be put out of work? Thrown on the scrap heap of history? Next thing you know, they'll be admitting that Covid wasn't all it was cracked up to be either. Then what will we do for entertainment?

    If this sort of thing catches on, we'll be up the proverbial creek without a paddle, watching endless repeats of the Morecambe and Wise show. Still, at least that shouldn't come with unlimited wind farms and solar panels disfiguring Albion's once beautiful and sacred ancient landscapes. And we can turn it off if we need to...

  • New Bombshell! - Al Gore Predicts possible Incoming "Ice Age"

    2026-05-01

    You couldn't make this stuff up, but fortunately for our entertainment Al Gore is still doing that for us.

    So what happened to the "settled science"? Has it mysteriously become unsettled? Or is it Al's mental equilibrium that's at fault (he isn't getting any younger)? I think we should be told, before the men in white coats are detailed to deal with the problem. We can't have "Climate Science" bedevilled with this sort of uncertainty, as judging by the total lack of any predictions that turned out to be trueso far, it's in enough trouble already.

  • "The State Didn't Remove God - It Became God"

    2026-04-23

    The separation of Church and State has been a theme throughout history, with Henry VIII reportedly (and maybe for all the wrong reasons) renouncing the supremacy of the Vatican and assuming power over the Church of England himself. 

    Thus undoing the separation, at least officially.

    But the Church still crowns the head of the monarch whenever a new one is needed, and maintains separate ecclesiastical courts for processing those in religious offices granted by the Church, so there is some nominal degree of separation still. Although Church officials can still be brought before the criminal courts as requirements arise.

    Followers of the Prophet Mohammed (work with me here, there are various groups within the Muslim religious communities of which I have limited understanding) view Mosque and State as aspiring to be a merged entity under Sharia Law, so separation is not fundamentally desirable.

    No don't worry, we're not talking human sickness this time. This time it's all about plants. Lemon trees actually. 

    Further comment is superfluous, except to note that healthy plants are the foundation (so to speak) of all animal and human life - and healthy soil is the foundation underpinning healthy plants.

  • Lyme's Disease - the Marvel of Modern Medicine?

    2026-04-06

    This is one where medical bureaucrats maybe really do place a tick in a box.

    But is there a vaccine for it? Tricky this - if it's spread by ticks then will a face-mask suffice in crowded pubs (as public spaces will come to be called in the absence of the real thing)?

    Will the bureaucrats all be guilty of spreading the disease without knowing it? Will further pandemic measures have to be invented to stop them?

    And how could we survive the agonising wait for a vaccine, even if developed at warp speed, in our modern bureaucracy-ridden society? 

    Indeed, how could a properly-regulated vaccine ever be developed without a veritable orgy of box-ticking?

    Something will have to give.
