Junk science climate scare paper (published April 2024) retracted by Nature.

How did it pass peer review? What took them so long?

"Kotz was patent nonsense... Yet Kotz was avidly picked up by government agencies around the world seemingly desperate to use any old gobbledegook to push the Net Zero fantasy"

"In a report to the British Parliament, the Climate Change Committee referenced Kotz in a section discussing economic damage arising from climate risk. Meanwhile, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) appears to have been a keen fan of Kotz and all its downstream impact works such as NGFS Phase V."

Did the world change some time shortly after the "Glorious Revolution"?

Some say so, although the idea seems extraordinary to the modern mind...

But we weren't there, so who's to say?

There are many strange tales of past events that provoke our curiosity, we know that history is written by the victors (to show themselves in the best light), and we know (well, I know, and I'm not alone in my knowing) that in recent years we were told the most almighty fibs by those who would change the course of history, and not for our betterment.

So today to further provoke your disbelief, your curiosity, and yes, your inquisitive child within, we present another tale of times past which it would seem have some explaining to do...

This is an attack on the small businesses upon which rural and not so rural communities depend.

Like the lockdowns in days of Covid, small businesses will be forced into closure whilst big businesses buy up their assets for pennies on the pound - prove me wrong? Even if they don't, they will flood the now less crowded marketplace with mass-produced products that will be the only affordable products available.

So the monopolies move in and the creative potential of the small business will be replaced by the bland sameness of the big chains, and whilst the local people won't be able to push up prices to cover taxes and costs, the big corporates will make a killing. 

Just as the supermarkets have over the years pushed out the retail grocers, bakers, hardware stores, and made inroads on the clothing front, so too now the market for small pubs restaurants and more importantly, farmers will be  passed from control by the many to control by the very few, all

Whisper it softly, but there are reports that il presidente is open to holding elections to form a new government. So I guess that the question will be: "same as the old government?". 

If it is, then Ukraine will face more war. If it isn't, then peace talks may commence, and the EU may disintegrate?

Momentous times.

This is a very pertinent video that everyone can learn from.

Speaking personally, from my own experience, I can't recommend this enough.

Yes it's true, I bake my own bread from organic stone-ground "ancient grains" (mostly wholegrain rye and spelt, these being commonly available in the UK).

If you're looking for bread like the supermarkets sell, you're looking in the wrong place, but they do sell the flours. And yes, they are more expensive, but I wouldn't willingly go back to bread made from modern wheat (a yeasted spelt loaf is an acceptable and quick substitute, and makes cracking toast!).

It takes a little practice, but once you get into the rhythm of sourdough, it's easier than timing the rising falling and kneading. Yes it's slower (measured in

We have covered the work of this ex-cop before...

... but we have had to wait until now for the full truth to (hopefully) come out into the mainstream. 

"This could have all come out eight years ago..."

"London kids need justice"

Of course, it could just be a baseless conspiracy theory...

The war of words is now the war of fines, and the war of continents.

Trump, JD Vance, Ted Cruz weigh in on the EU's "misinformation" campaign.

"All for one, one for all" or "Where we go one, we go all"?

Sounds much the same to me... 

An interesting exchange.

Which will win - the war of words or the war of attrition?

Col Macgregor opines that Russia will take Odessa and tighten the screws on Ukraine by cutting off access to the Black Sea...  thus cutting exports, and cutting resupply to its army.

And will the USA leave NATO?

Susan Kokinda of Promethean Action explains the great rift in the "special relationship" -  it's just not "special" any more?

It also shines a light on how much say "our representatives in Parliament" have on geopolitics and whether we go to war or not.

Is this the end of the road for the "Rules Based Order"?

If you are an IT executive and thinking to outsource your IT systems design and implementation - but not to China or India, but to an AI...  this may be for you.

No business is static. The static ones tend to fall by the wayside as customers change their ways and want something better.

And every system needs tweaking fix problems and cope with unintended consequences...

Change is the order of the day for any IT system, and especially the new ones navigating the bathtub curve for the first time.

How will your shiny new AI-designed systems cope with the requirement for change?

The permanently sceptical curmudgeons who will never be convinced of the Climate Crisis even when it (eventually?) gets up and smacks them in the nether regions with an unseasonal warm blast, will never be convinced whatever the weather, and will no doubt continue to bemoan the comparatively trifling expenses of those stalwarts who despite the odds continue selflessly to drive home the necessary messaging to a sceptical public, regardless of the considerable personal inconvenience.

So it falls to us today to feature a piece highlighting the excellent ongoing work of the public servants of the Canadian government, who despite the odds continue to strive to save the world from the oncoming catastrophe so presciently foretold by those far-sighted globalist billionaires Al Gore et al.

You know it' inevitable.

With Russia and Europe seemingly unable to make peace...

There's a lot of history here which explains the seemingly inexplicable.

It's everything that we need to remember.

Plenty going on just now, although mostly behind the scenes. By the time the news catches up with events I'm guessing much will be over (bar the shouting).

Likewise in this era of global meltdown and multiple bluffs it's hard to differentiate fact from fiction, white hats from black hats. 

Still, it's an interesting report this week that confirms that events are moving faster than most can keep up with.

Landlords - a group of people just out to make as much money as they can from the poor and dispossessed? So how does this differ from any other business?

In my far away youth I rented a flat beside a railway line so that I could attend my workplace, which was in an unfamiliar part of the country. Looking back it was quite OK - one or two niggles but I think I gave as many as I got! I had previously rented during my workplace year as a sandwich course student - again, it was OK except that when I left, my deposit was obviously firmly ensconced and not to be parted from it's current billet.

You could say that I was treated badly, but I was also learning lessons about life which would stand me in good stead.

Fast forward to today and a landlord puts his side of the rentings story, and yes, there is no aspect of life that government cannot make worse whilst professing the best of intentions - especially by meddling in the

It was called "Operation Talla" - but it could have been called "Three Wise Monkeys": Hear no evidence, See no evidence, Admit no evidence.

Search engines will tell you a lot about the Talla Reservoir near Tweedsmuir from 1905 or thereabouts, but haven't apparently caught up with the UK Police Operation Talla from 2021 onward.

Happily we can keep you up to date with the latest news from Ethical Approach UK, and retired (in name only!) policeman Mark Sexton, who have now published the results of their investigations.

This all started back in June 2021 when Mark Sexton went down to the local police station to report a crime.

Oh and gold. Gold being a monetary metal whose supply is approximately constant.

Unlike dollars and pounds that can be printed in quantity by a few strokes on a central banker's keyboard. If we produced money like that they would lock us up, so how is it "OK" for central banks (oh, and retail banks too!) to do it?

Maybe it's not what you know, but who you know? And who doesn't know?

As always, this is not financial advice. It's how the world works...
