  • The Trump View on NATO by Peter Hegseth

    2025-02-13

    As spelled out at NATO HQ by Peter Hegseth in Brussels.

    One might loosely summarise (pay up, arm up, revamp defence industries, recognise realities, and make peace in Ukraine) - all wrapped in supportive language. 

    Largely unspoken were the implications for NATO if they should fail...

    Re: the situation in Ukraine:

    "I think that realism is an important part of the conversation that hasn't existed enough... "

  • View From America

    2025-02-13

    Reinette Senum (no, me neither) interviewed by SGT Report, covering much of the current events scene in Trump's United States.

    "Do you know anyone who's not thrilled?"

    "You cannot cut out that much cancer and still have a body left"

    There's a lot to cover, and both America and the world are changing faster than anybody expected...

  • Pay Your (Durham County) Council Tax if You Want To?

    2025-02-13

    Martin Geddes (yes, he again) now summarises (with a little help from ChatGPT) just why he considers that Durham County Council may be outside the law in terms of its council tax enforcement processes.

    That isn't at all to say that all councils are similarly suspect - I have no details - but nor can I rule it out, especially as many of them, like CDOS (see the article) will be members of the CIVEA (Civil Enforcement Association) and may be thought likely to have similar systems to Durham CC.

    "These assaults on the public appear to be war crimes (as enemy combatants), crimes against humanity, and terrorist attacks — so fall under international human rights law and military jurisdiction"

    Is Your Council Tax Enforcement Really Fraudulent?

    Whatever the truth of all this is, it is also true

  • The Trump Train Rolls On Relentless

    2025-02-13

    Will the Trump Train not pause to allow more passengers to board?

    If you are not aboard already, it's not stopping now for anyone. The contrast with the much-quoted EU train that the UK was so earnestly exhorted to join before it too departed (in that case for the wonderfully fabled but ill-defined EUtopia) is unmissable. But whither goes the Trump Train?

    Fresh from the successful blitzkrieg on the various federal agencies of corruption (and possibly treason) such as (but not limited to) the now infamous USAID, the next suburbs to be passed through will be the major historical false flag attacks:

    The JFK, RFK, and Martin Luther King  assassinations

    The Epstein client list and (perhaps) his "suicide"

  • DOGE to Chase Exploding Gains

    2025-02-12

    Elon Musk's DOGE is showing how to deal with those on the take.

    As part of its investigations into Government Efficiency it will investigate those who have somehow appeared to acquire huge wealth despite being on salaries that could not have produced such wealth.

    Now it's quite possible these days to buy and sell crypto (Bitcoin for example) at precisely the right time, and make a fortune, but it's not exactly commonplace.

    So employees of agencies which misspent government funds, and who appear to have acquired wealth beyond scope of salary, would, bearing in mind the public interest, seem to have little potential for any automatic benefit of the doubt, and should be nicely asked to account for their good fortune. As always, they do not have to comply with a polite request if they do not so wish, but those who have good explanations could set the investigators minds at rest. The burden of proof still rests with any potential

  • The Children's Wellbeing and Schools Bill

    2025-02-12

    This Bill, currently wending its way through Parliament, looks set to reach the Statute Book just as soon as their Lordships have finished with it and passed it on to the Monarch for his Royal Assent.

    Given that the Labour Party has a stonking majority in the Commons, there will be no delaying its arrival before their Lordships.

    Given also the Government's obsession with ultimately centralising all powers of any note unto itself, it's no surprise that this bill is long on rhetoric and very very short on devolution (after all, if it started devolving powers to, say, parents, there would be a chaotic free-for-all and the government would have nothing to do except twiddle its thumbs and dream of powers forsaken).

    Let us in the interests of brevity quote directly from the government's own "Policy Summary Notes" document:

  • And We Thought America Was Bad

    2025-02-11

    Whilst America is having its Trump-Musk moment, with consequences that we await as they turn out, Americans are apparently now joined by hysteria against the "Far Right" in Germany, where the Left seems to be paranoid about the AfD and other dreadful right-wing (erstwhile centre-right) parties gaining enough ground to push the sainted Left to the sidelines.

    That of course is seen as a totally undemocratic outcome.

    "Over half of all Germans now find themselves on “the right” and urgently require democratic reeducation"

    By this account half the country is on the streets protesting against the popular mood...    how that works is neither obvious nor likely legal.

    "All of the absurdities of the past twenty years will begin to crumble as parliamentary majorities can no longer be found to support them"

  • David Starkey Analyses the State of Britain Today

    2025-02-11

    "Here is a man who has never read anything apart from a legal textbook, and an Arsenal Programme"

    This may start a bit slowly, but David Starkey makes an interesting and perceptive analysis of our current state/State, and clearly puts across the value of our (now neglected) historical heritage - we don't know what we have until it's been lost.

    "... we f****ed up partly because we became 'experts'... "

    Expertise in a narrow field is no substitute for breadth of knowledge and experience.

    He gives us much to think about, and in the process, helps us realise that what we as a society now lack is the influential wisdom of experienced and knowledgeable elders - we no longer value the depth of understanding that such aldermen (using the word in its historical sense) should bring to our new and upcoming

    So what is it all about?

  • Digging the Dirt, Clearing for Action!

    2025-02-11

    Behind the scenes in Washington DC, in "the belly of the beast", a quiet blitzkrieg is reportedly overwhelming the bureaucracy.

    Enabled by IT and up to eight years of meticulous planning and preparation, Elon's Marauders are mapping the money and deconstructing the byzantine layers of obfuscation and delay, replacing all with fit-for-purpose control systems designed for real results in real-time.

    The US equivalents of Sir Humphrey Appleby are still reacting in accord with their eternal paradigm, that change cannot, indeed must not, be rushed. Flat-footed is to overstate their response.

    If this report is true, they are being swept away with no meaningful chance to resist.

    Ben's report this week is, as one might expect with Trump (and his appointees) seemingly making as many waves as there are people-hours in the day, jam-packed.

    Although plenty of political earth-shaking is ongoing, and nothing of great import not already noted by his regular readers seems to be featured, there is plenty of confirmatory nature to pique our interest.

    With the Trump team busy wrong-footing as many opponents as possible, we seem to be assured of "interesting times" ahead.

  • Apple in the Cross-Hairs?

    2025-02-10

    Or should that be the Public in the cross-hairs?

    Or, given that the Big Tech companies may have been creations of the CIA, might it be that the government merely wants access to the data to which the CIA already has access?

    These days it's necessary to cover all the angles.

    The story is that the UK Government wants access to the encrypted data that Apple holds on their customer's behalf - all you iPhone and Mac users, pay attention!

    I wonder how that plays out against the Data Protection laws? I'm sure somebody has thought that one through.

    Besides, surely only criminals would deny the government this information?

    Still, if you must keep certain information secret, don't put on the internet.

  • QAI - Q According to AI

    2025-02-10

    The "QANON Conspiracy" has been the subject of much mis/dis/mal-information over recent years, and Blighty's own Martin Geddes was in the forefront of checking out the Q phenomenon in the early days.

    Here he utilises the newfangled AI phenomenon to review the output of the Q "conspiracy theorists" and see what the "non-human intelligence" makes of it all in retrospect.

    "Now that years have passed since the peak of the Q movement and the media’s aggressive campaign against it, we can reassess how these articles hold up against unfolding events, new revelations, and the general trajectory of public discourse"

  • USAID - Where Did the Money Go?

    2025-02-09

    Elon Musk's investigation of the USAID payees has been extraordinarily revealing, showing just where the resources have been directed - and apparently not toward the well-being of the average US citizen.

    If reports are to be believed, funds have been channelled through UN agencies and NGOs (and elsewhere), making USAID more akin to a slush fund for illegal activities everywhere.

    And yet...

    "Most of the money subsidizing these human-trafficking NGOs does not come from USAID, it's from the United Nations"

  • The Trump-Netanyahu Plan for Gaza - Maajid Nawaz with Neil Oliver

    Maajid Nawaz shows an impressive grasp of Middle East geopolitics, carrying on here from where Scott Ritter and company left off.

    I feel that more water yet must pass beneath the bridge before we will see a believable solution to the Gaza situation. After all, Israel is not exactly victorious, nor any longer an attractive destination for immigration to rebuild its shattered economy.

    The unspoken question is surely: "Whither Israel?". We need to answer this before we can be confident about the future of Gaza, and its remaining inhabitants.

    Equally, why should the Devil have all the best AI?

Indeed some speculate that "the AI" will naturally evolve to require to eliminate humanity so that it itself may survive. Happily that discussion is out of scope of this article 😎.

    But indeed, there is AI and there is AI.
