Trump - The First Month
2025-02-21
If I would summarise the main events of month one of the Trump Administration, I would fall very short - but happily the Trump Administration is not backward at coming forward.

A British Politician Who Says It Like He Sees It
2025-02-20
Yes, it's George Galloway, a British politician still in possession of most of his marbles - sadly a rarity in this time of political pygmies-in-charge.
And his hectoring style does lend his oratory a certain... substance.
"Zelensky's Ukraine is not worth the bones of a single British grenadier"
Quite so.
He isn't exactly uninformed either... and raises some interesting points about the situation in Lebanon, the West Bank, and Gaza.
President Erdoğan's intentions are not raised, when maybe they ought to be, as Turkey is indeed a major player in the region. Yes, it's complicated.

Neil Oliver Meets Col Douglas Macgregor
2025-02-20
Trump, Ukraine, New World Order - there's a great deal to discuss and much of it still unclear.
What to make of it? Whither Zelensky? Whither Ukraine?, Whither Europe? Who will pay for it?
And Whither the Middle East?
This isn't the usual Neil Oliver 10 minutes - this is a very level-headed and serious discussion, with no very clear answers. Probably as good as it gets just now.

The Shock of the New
2025-02-20
Two stories for the price of one (again) from Fortune and Freedom today.
Major investments in UK AI data centres is postulated - AI is clearly going to shape our future in ways not yet evident - and if you think that "Rachel from Accounts" will inevitably screw it all up, it appears that government investment is not involved.
Now it is true that if these private initiatives will all be dependent upon connections to our wind-mill fed intermittent grid, then Ed Milliband's wonderful Net Zero strategy would inevitably be the kiss of asphyxiation to such schemes, but I don't doubt that RR or Westinghouse would surely oblige each project with it's very own Small Modular Reactor, and to Hell with the grid and its strangulatory connective impossibilities.

When the Law is an Ass?
2025-02-20
We may all have an opinion on the operation of "Human Rights" laws in our country, but as most of us are not lawyers, we may be unsure exactly why we hold such an opinion.
Quite possibly it was because at some time in the past we read a newspaper report about some case or other and wondered how on earth the judgement that was handed down could be justified. We remember our reaction, but forget the detailed reasoning that underpinned it.
After a number of such reports crossing our cognitive threshold, the conclusion remains but the details have probably fallen through our memory hole. Unless of course we are a lawyer with a professional interest.
Dr David McGrogan writing for the Daily Sceptic does us a favour by explaining the primary characteristics that make laws good law, and how some of those primary characteristics were defeated by the introduction of the Human

The Undead Data (Use and Access) Bill
2025-02-18
This harks back to our 2023 report concerning the then UK Digital Identity and Attributes Trust Framework beta version (0.3) updated 11th January 2023 (CBDC / Citizen Id by whatever means?).
As explained in that video,this was an unremarkable update to a previous Act, introduced as a administrative update that didn't require Parliament to vote upon it.
If you didn't watch that, I suggest you watch it now.
We've had a lot of water beneath the Parliamentary bridge since then, yet it seems that the Labour Government for whatever reason decided in December 2024 to make a proper Bill out of it, even though the consultations on the areas covered by the

Neil Nails It

We on this site have been saying that Covid was just a scam, or if you like, a mind-virus, for some time.
Neil Oliver makes the unarguable case.

FulFord White Dragon Report - 17 Dec 2025 - The Revolution Turns
2025-02-17
Avatars to the fore!
The war to dominate the narrative has taken a few turns recently - confusion resulting. Is it any wonder that we don't know whom to believe any more - when matters spin out of control, so also does the narrative.
Are we now in the clear? Who's to say?
Who is Trump? Who is Musk? And for whom do they work?
It's your view that counts... (modest subscription required for full access)

The JD Vance Speech in Munich - The Aftermath
2025-02-17
Eugyppius, a German writer on Substack, reviews the Munich Security Conference that "Vice-President" JD Vance addressed last week.
"It’s always dangerous to pick moments from the cacophony of current events and assign them historical significance, but if any singular speech is likely to signal the end of the present political insanity in Europe, it is the one Vance gave in Munich on Thursday"
A fascinating review that majors on pointing up the total hypocrisy (conscious or unconscious) of the European political players, and not merely in Germany.
Not to mention the ever-growing divide between the people and their politicians, something that America has just rectified...

The Cognitive War for Our Understandings and Beliefs
2025-02-16
When is an assertion a "fact"?
What is a "fact"?
In law a "fact" is some assertion agreed by both parties to the dispute.
Does that mean it is true and accurate? Either way, it tells us something about the law, and perhaps also about "facts".
Socrates is widely credited with the realisation that "the only thing I know is that I know nothing", and in this day and age when most of what we "know" is gleaned from remote others whom we do not personally "know", this assertion rings more true than ever.
What do the "fact-checkers" know that we do not?!
So our knowledge and beliefs as recognised by each of us are a result of our

Conclusion to the Fall of the Cabal - Part 2: The Military Industrial Complex
2025-02-16
Cyntha Koete and the late Janet Ossebard spent years documenting the Fall of the Cabal series of presentations, the Sequel series to the Fall of the Cabal, and now, the first of a new series: Conclusion to the Fall of the Cabal.
We have followed their remarkable 38 part effort previously, an effort that culminated for Janet when she took her own life.
We hope that you too will find their work invaluable.
Following on from Part 1: The Pyramid of Power, this is their latest presentation:
Conclusion to the Fall of the Cabal - Part 2: The Military Industrial Complex.
This episode traces the history of the Cabal from Roman times, through the American War of Independence, and on to today.

Be Ye Never So High, The Law is Above You
2025-02-16
Martin Geddes is now making so much use of AI that his productivity of articles is hard to keep up with!
Whether or not this particular article was AI-enabled, it is admirably laid out and clearly explains the precise alleged infractions of the law that pertain to the way that the case against him has been handled.
Now one might think that this is in point of fact a pretty trivial case, so pay up shut up and get on with life - but that isn't so. If the police themselves are not operating lawfully then that really is a very serious issue, and they need to be taken to task.
Martin has documented the whole argument very thoroughly and provided copy of his responses - I don't doubt that anybody in similar

NFU - Never Fails to Underwhelm?
2025-02-16
There are also other sobriquets out there that many may feel inappropriate in polite conversation.
The Daily Sceptic reveals that a story they ran showing how Big Finance may have influenced certain politicians to change the taxation rules on farmers in such a way that Big Finance might better acquire their properties elicited not so much as an acknowledgement from the NFU.
Now one can understand that not everyone wants to get involved with politics, but unhappily politicians don't reciprocate by not wishing to get involved in everyone's affairs, so that's a losing strategy if ever there was one.
Perhaps the farmers were hoping that the NFU would look after their politcal interests for them, thus relieving them of an irksome burden?
So is the NFU merely asleep on the job, or does it really serve the farmers' interests?
On the other hand I am no farmer, so maybe the

The 9/11 Conspiracy Theory Reviewed
2025-02-15
The fall of the twin towers has always been controversial, but officialdom has always been deaf to any argument but their own.
Many believe that the official story was a huge cover-up, and that the disaster was a false flag attack by the CIA in order to persuade the public of the necessity for the planned "War on Terror".
Trump has declared that this event will be reviewed under his leadership.
Former Congressman Curt Weldon gives his side of the 9/11 story. He is but one of many "conspiracy theorists" who had involvement around that time.

On Your Marx ...
2025-02-15
Martin Geddes is trailblazing as usual.
Here he has been educating ChatGPT with his views on Marxism - views with which I would agree.
ChatGPT seems surprisingly eager to assimilate his information, which rather begs the question - if it's that easy to get it to modify its views, could anybody do this? Obviously, the answer is yes, but I suppose it may depend upon how illogical the modified views would turn out to be.
After all, what Martin seems to have done is introduce an alternative assumption into the AI works - and assumptions are the basis upon which all theories rest. When we get to the stage that "events dear boy, events" quieten down a bit, I may have time/inclination to see if I can get AI to produce some spectacularly incorrect results simply by introducing an invalid assumption or two into its thinking, but until then there is a website to run...

US to Quit the UN?
2025-02-14
You know how it is, you wait hours for a bus and then 11 come along in a bus-a-thon. Well, we have waited years for the good sense to do any number of sensible things, and suddenly a Trump Executive Order comes in (along with around 199 others) that portends the exact action required.
Obviously such a dramatic step cannot be just taken overnight as there will be many knock-on effects that have to be considered and seen to be considered, but that process of consideration has now been set in motion.
Where Trump leads, will the world follow?

JD Vance Promotes the New Politics - Same as the Old Politics!
2025-02-14
Well, we might have to reverse a few years to find the "old politics" that JD Vance enthuses over to the Munich Security Conference, but there's nothing new under the sun.
"I've heard a lot about what you are defending yourselves from, but what exactly is it that you are defending your selves for?"
"If you are running in fear of your own voters, there is nothing America can do for you"
"You cannot win a democratic mandate by censoring your opponents or putting them in jail... "
