  • UFOs Meet The Trump Phenomenon

    2024-11-09

    If you don't believe all the talk of aliens and UFOs / UAPs, or perhaps if you do...  then this short 1999 video may be for you.

    William Cooperpresents a good case based upon recent history. His interpretation, whilst perfectly reasonable, may not actually disprove that which he denies. That's not to say he is wrong, there is plenty of evidence for UFOs as he acknowledges, but we can't know for sure who is flying/controlling them.

    A well-presented case in two parts - the original video, and a second part from a later interview, that may be related to Trump and unfolding events in the USA!

    It's your view that counts.

  • This is Not Party Politics

    2024-11-02

    Well, not really party politics. It just so happens that the party currently in office (if not actually in power) gets to make all the traditional mistakes all over again - or at any rate gets to take the blame for them.

    As always, it's all about the money. But what is money? It is purchasing power: the power to purchase what we need, or what we desire. 

    But if what we need or desire is unobtainable... then of what use is money?

    In olden times, money represented goods that had been produced by members of the local community, goods which they then took to the local weekly market for sale. What they received in exchange was money - money that they then spent buying other goods that someone else had produced, in that same market, to meet their own particular needs. Money was simply a device for swapping and redistributing each others' goods, a

    Forget party politics - note the arguments - there's no arguing with figures.

    No main party is anywhere close.

    Perhaps too he's starting to reprise his old iconoclastic style previously so admired by the EU Parliament? (It's about time!)

  • The Ultimate 'Down the Rabbit Hole'?

    2024-10-27

    Before we begin, I offer the standard "Down the Rabbit Hole" introductory advice for those unfamiliar:

    I strongly suggest that those new to my site should review the earlier Down the Rabbit Hole series, starting with 1 2 3 and 4

  • Only For Inhabitants of the Asylum for the Terminally Sane

    2024-10-20

    Ole Dammegard reviews the state of our world as allegedly run by our democratic institutions of government - yet perhaps in reality by those pesky TLAs and their corrupted or deceived associates in all walks of life.

    Who is to sort the truth from the onslaught of mis/dis/mal/duff/fake-information that assails us from all quarters - and has so done for far longer than any of us might care to contemplate?

    Even the sainted Julian Assange for Heaven's sake - is nobody above suspicion of complicity, or perhaps merely of galactic-scale misrepresentation?

    I think we could all usefully take heed to pick up a few tips and tricks from Ole the expert, who has made the study of fake news into a personal crusade of many years standing... and who still shares much of his insight to the world for free.

    Buckle up

  • Thoughts on the American Election

    2024-10-17

    As some of my readers will know, Martin Geddes is in America, this time in Tennessee at an election meeting.

    His reflections could well be similarly applicable in the UK, and I find it striking how in both countries, politics is in effect a weapon to promote division rather than a force for reconciliation cooperation and healing.

    The challenge is immense and the general understanding very sparse

    No, not another breathless report on the iniquities of FEMA or the exposure of hidden tunnels now filled with water and other debris, but an uplifting soliloquy on the meaning and practicality of the spirit that once animated America, from Britain's very own Martin Geddes.

    By sharing his journey of practical spiritual discovery amid the current turmoil, he continues to bless us all.

     

  • Lies, Damned Lies, Statistics, and Economic Indicators

    Should such measures be regarded as information, misinformation, disinformation, malinformation, or something else?

    I suggest pseudoinformation... but feel free to send in your suggestions "on a postcard to the usual address" (or use our "Email Us" feature).

  • A Quick Swerve to Pick up some Entertainment

    As, apart from rather odd hurricanes and a paucity of anything much that is both new and reasonably reportable (without shredding one's credibility too disastrously), I take the  opportunity to highlight some well-deserved fun at the expense of today's media in general, by bringing you this entertaining piece from the Daily Sceptic, without further comment.

     

  • Freedom is Just Another Word for "Nothing Left to Lose"

    2024-10-09

    This may become a historical "document for our times" - it reflects experiences akin to riding an emotional roller-coaster, which for some lucky ones covered just a few recent years; for others, many more years, years of apparent hopelessness in a seemingly futile quest for the means to overturn the governments of "mental occupation" ("govern"=control, "ment"=mind).

    When everyone is distracted by the football, the rugby, the juggling of the needs of family against the needs of one or several jobs, the allure of the get-rich-quick schemes, TV,  social media (and worse), "pop" concerts and innumerable events of all kinds...

    When everyone is fed the continuous propaganda of the hidden hands that manipulate the politicians of the world, by the media that report only what those manipulators want us to believe, and suppress the truths that they don't want us even to suspect

  • Trigger Warning: This Article is Certain to Upset Everybody!

    2024-10-01

    Has Clif High finally flipped?

    Or is he onto something, or things, of which we should be aware?

    From a whistle-blower from the Council of Nicea (we probably just lost half of you right there!) through religions of the past and the would-be religions of the future, the collapse of current world financial systems and the ensuing crisis of governance as we know it, not to mention the ETs and those who may or may not currently inhabit "our" moon, this tour de force from Clif covers his expectations over approximately the next six months or so. Notwithstanding all that, it seems certain that we will not have seen such times before.

    Well, I have the greatest respect for Clif, but as he would I'm sure acknowledge, none of us have a monopoly on the truth. It's just that Clif's grasp of matters existential seems to me to be several notches up from anyone else of whom I know. And believe it or not, he always seems to have evidence / personal experience to back up

  • Bring Back the Trial of the Pyx!

    2024-09-28

    Some of the old customs and traditions are definitely the best!

    But somehow, some of them have been debased by... well, I don't know, perhaps as much or more as our Pound Sterling.

    One pound sterling (originally one troy pound of sterling silver) is now worth almost as much as two thirds of a bar of chocolate.

    Yet the cheapest 1oz silver bullion coin available from the Royal Mint this morning costs just a few pence more than £28. Given that there are ten troy oz in one troy pound, the original pound of sterling silver should be enough for around 420 bars of chocolate.

    The "Trial of the Pyx" may be old-fashioned, but in my book it's high time it was updated and reinstated for modern circumstances...

  • Are We to be Mugged by a Word Salad?

    2024-09-21

    Well, time is fast running out... before the United Nations agrees its new "Pact For the Future"!

    Of course one might argue (many would and do) that the world is in a parlous state exactly because the UN hasn't managed to sufficiently control things in the period leading up to this moment, but don't worry, it's nothing that handing ever more powers to the good folk at the UN wouldn't resolve, as they would then be able to be properly bossy and everyone would have have to tow their line, whereas up until now their powers have been too easy to circumvent.

    It's the usual storyline: It's not our leadership that's at fault, it's all because these countries simply won't do as they are told! So "countries" are outdated and must be abolished and we, as the New World Order, must be given plenipotentiary powers... or something like that.

  • MH370 Mystery - What Happened?

    2024-09-17

    Malaysian Airlines MH370 disappeared on a routine flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing in March 2014.

    It was never found (officially) and it's disappearance has never been satisfactorily explained. But there are many features about this event that some think indicated some level of official collusion.

    Amateur sleuth Ashton Forbes has since picked through all the many items of evidence and assembled a reasonable theory about what happened... reasonable that is until you see his extraordinary presentation.

    There's a whole raft of contentious assertions here, but my purpose is not to say "Believe!" but rather to say: "Question everything!".

    Michael Tellinger is no intellectual slouch and has investigated many geographical features found in South Africa, so I respect his opinions - that's not to say that he is invariably right, and I don't think he has been to the moon to check it out at first-hand.

  • "Be Still, and Know that I am God"

    2024-09-10

    The quotation is taken from Psalm 46, but here it seems quite apt as Clif High takes it upon himself to explain the basic art and technique of meditation.

    What is the purpose of meditation and whither does (or should) it take us?

    Is it the same as prayer?

    As one who doesn't consider himself at all well versed in the topic, I will not comment further, except to say that as I sat down at the keyboard to tap up this article, the title simply sprang unbidden into my mind... make of that what you will.

  • What Is AI?

    2024-09-04

    AI is a marvellous tool with many uses, but especially perhaps at this time for the high-level scammers in our world - how so? 

    Almost nobody (yet) understands how it works!

    So we are all fodder for the scam-artists who want us to believe that AI will "rule the world", "take over all our jobs", "always win on the battlefield" (except maybe against another AI!), be all-knowing, etc etc.

    So "is AI really omnipotent and can it replace human beings" is a potentially existential question for us.

    That AI has its uses is incontrovertible - that it could completely replicate the functionality of a human being is unproven as yet. Some
