The age old presumption that a child's parents are the best people to care for their children is overturned.

It has already been overturned in cases where the parents are shown to be incapable or unable to keep their children safe - that is what the family courts were introduced for. Unhappily as the family courts tend to sit in closed session, the old maxim that 'justice must be seen to be done" has given way to "the people involved must not be publicly embarrassed", which in my view ought to carry very significantly less weight, if only because it makes miscarriages of justice very much harder to identify investigate and to correct.

"Being a parent is a privilege, not a right: the only right which matters is a child’s right to safety"

One might superficially agree with that, but a moment's thought will dispel the notion. A child needs a consistent loving caring environment that prioritises the needs of the child in which to flourish, not merely

Has Trump shot himself in the foot with this war?

Alex Krainer puts on his thinking cap to consider whither the western world may go from here.

He will need all his critical thinking abilities for this one.

"It's very difficult to look past today in these circumstances... "

Quite so.

"It's horrifically problematic now... "

Trump's uncharacteristic outbreak of war against Iran has cast a die from which the world will resonate for ever. 

Already we have reported on the implications for China.

If Iran's proficiency in missile technology is factual (as seems to be borne out by the 12 day conflict with Israel that took place mid 2025) then it's hard to see how Israel can survive a war of attrition to the end.

And if Israel falls, then what of the controlled politicians in most western countries now that Epstein's controlling operation is increasingly headless and out in the open?

Of course, it may simply be that Trump is using one arm of the Deep State to take down another, or with luck each to destroy each other, although that would seem to be pushing Lady Luck a bit too far... nevertheless the Obama Deep State presidency did shift a lot of funding to the Iranian "regime" if rumour is to be believed...

Anthropology.

Does this key unlock the problem?

The Daily Sceptic reviews the book: Professor Alison Shaw’s 1980s fieldwork on the Pakistani community of Oxford.

This is a new topic for Alex Krainer, with whom we are familiar for his expertise in geopolitics.

But this is all about the current parlous state of British "politics".

That he thinks this is huge is significant.

Promethean Action give us their view on the attack on Iran.

It's probably not a commonly held viewpoint, but maybe there's some truth in it.

There's certainly a lot of history behind it...  and not just British history.

And your cat's dinner for that matter, or any other pet, maybe even farm animal that you have cause to feed.

Recent "events" have shone a spotlight on Big Agriculture Big Chemistry and Big Food manufacturers, understandably with the emphasis on food for humans, so is it really any surprise that Big xyz have also been active in the provision ofanimal food?

Brownstone Institute is on the case.

Elected on a promise of ending wars and cleaning the swamp, has Trump now morphed into the enabler of wars and the replacer of one swamp with another (or maybe just a different view of the same)?

It's getting quite hard to tell.

Patrick Wood has been studying the trends of technocracy for years, and comes to some startling possibilities.

China's National Peoples Congress purges 19 delegates, nine of whom are senior officers of the People's Liberation Army. This comes on top of all the generals that have already been purged in recent times...

Is President Xi getting his retribution in first again?

Ian Clayton of Ethical Approach UK has done sterling work to document the nature of Operation Talla, which sought to suppress the recording of suspected crimes associated with the Covid vaccine roll-out.

On the face of it, there seems to be a strong legal case to answer that such an undertaking was unconstitutional unlawful illegal and indeed amoral.

So what defences do we constitutionally have to correct this situation?

All the normal appeals to authority to recognise the situation and effect correction have been met by evasion or incomprehension, or have been side-stepped. Are the foxes in charge of the hen-house?

In these circumstances it falls to the sovereign peoples of this land to take action to restore lawful governance - whatever that may mean and by whatever peaceful means may be available to us.

This site recently featured the story that Lenovo PCs will (if required) ship with Linux variants.

That's not untrue, but perhaps it isn't the whole story. 

PC operating systems have always been a minefield, so careful presentation is required. This site is not about operating systems (but is about freedom to choose!), so I'm not throwing my weight behind either presentation. As always, caveat emptor.

It's not at all clear to me what's going on here, so beyond saying just that, I will content myself by remarking that several options present themselves...
