(0708) Morning all … seems undecided in the sky out there at this stage. (0807)

9. Posting this disquietening item earlier than normal

… sorry it’s over breakfast, it’s nauseating:


8. Potential threat can be just as disquietening

Some days back, MMutR suggested I start feeding some HQ topics back into Gab and vice-versa. That’s started, my sole friend Lainey over there has noticed and commented … we’ll see how it goes.

Having said all that, MMutR clearly does not ustd X’s reach … illustrated to a point with this item:


The PTB clearly keep an eye on X, often through lackeys, plus do not like what they see. That alone is reason enough, I’d say … but it’s more, imho, its potential rather than actual threat which worries Them.

A second factor is that it’s a very social site and I put that down to it being packed with ladies … the other sort off on Blue Sky, TikTok, whatever. We interact. Yes, there are still many come in just to rattle off their thing, not bothering with anyone else … but overall, it’s quite social and supportive …

… plus the PTB are watching, monitoring us.

7. Aus govt 5 years for criticising murders and rapes


Oh how Australia has fallen. I remember Katoomba rack rail, Jenolan Caves … usual Aussies around. Chilling is the mention of Melbourne by Daniel below:


6. SCOTUS and the men and women thing

Wednesday [1 to 5]

(0506) Item one today is this “pinned notice”:

a) A few days ago I reported that one of the Fast Food chains were only serving Halal meat in certain towns; they are being joined by others. Following Five Guys and Pizza Hut, KFC will offer a 100% halal menu in 24 restaurants starting January 21, in the name of “respect for diversity” and “evolving demand”.

b) Diversity High Commission: Macron’s latest bad idea. Among the new developments for 2026, Emmanuel Macron has announced the creation of a High Commission for Diversity.

c) Jordan Bardella, President of France’s right-wing National Rally (NR) and an MEP, is under legal scrutiny over his use of European Parliament funds.

d) A German court will this week revisit a controversial conviction over a political meme that has drawn international attention and reignited debate over the limits of satire and freedom of expression in Europe.

2. I need to redo my pinned tweet on X, possibly on Gab

NW England, my politics are for the traditional Triune Christendom but also for the ordinary people of each nation, irrespective and against all who would harm them … for the restoration of sanity in politics and elimination of wokery, for good men plus good women together as one team. Though my flag is the cross of St George and my anthem is Jerusalem, I have close people in North America and downunder, plus in various European nations. No DMs please, except from known, established online friends.

Tuesday [11 till close of play]

(1551) Almost evening all.

13. Homecoming song for Julia


In the afternoon’s dark drizzle, as relentless as this train
And an aching in my heart, and and an aching in my brain
I’m a long way from home, I miss my g & t beginner
In the afternoon’s dark drizzle, not so long before my dinner

This old station’s got me down, it’s no earthly good to me
‘Cause I’m stuck here on the tube, thinking home where I might be
Can’t eat a tube train like you can a sausage sizzle
So I’d best be on my way in the afternoon’s dark drizzle

(Apologies to Peter, Paul and Mary.)

… losing a wheel here, a wheel there:

Tue Mat

 

“A distinguished wide-screen film that honors those who served in a great British naval episode while showing generally how naval warfare was carried out in the early days of WWII.

Effectively portraying the sheer power of one of the most monstrous weapons ever devised by the dark side of the human mind- the battleship Bismarck. Battleships had a hideous, graceful sort of massive beauty during their brief heyday at the peak of war technology but went the way of the dinosaur after WWII. Their vulnerabilities are demonstrated in this film, as are certain unfortunate (but not necessarily erroneous) tactical moves by the German Admiral and the Captain of the Bismarck.

In case you don’t know the story I won’t spoil it but an event occurs around the middle of this film that has a sudden awesome shock value that can still cause your jaw to drop. It is perfectly set forth despite the low-tech film techniques available in 1960- the producers do a great job.

A deadly serious film about deadly serious heavy subject matter, “Sink the Bismarck” has qualities that hold up and it is worth your viewing time.”

a) Mercosur is the public humiliation of France. Happy times are now over for Europe. The Mercosur deal agreed last week shows an EU forced to choose between protecting its farming sector and opening new markets for its industrial exports….

b) ….But farmers fight back…EU-Mercosur: Farmers protest at the port of Le Havre….

c) As I wrote on AKH’s website the other day…

It’s the same the whole world over,
Isn’t it a bleeding shill;
It’s the rich that get the pleasure,
And the poor that get the bill.

d) Women drivers……A 48-year-old woman’s car caught fire on the A89 motorway near Lyon on Friday, January 9, 2026. She had put engine oil in the radiator instead of coolant. It was a costly mistake.

2. Iran

The tendency to divide into camps completely one way or completely the other is strong in humans who are there solely to push a point of view they’ve latched onto too early, not thinking a situation through dispassionately, over time, either through a priori bias or through an agenda.

For example, I was over at Gab last night, looking around, and most on the topic were almost neo-nazi, slamming Israel, calling it a Zionist operation, while the other side, Russia, not seen at all over there, say it’s the same US playbook each and every time. What they don’t add is “thereby letting the mass murdering mullahs off the hook yet again”.

My stance, after spending a few hours taking each of three side’s receipts in, is that all are, to a point, correct. Where does that leave Iran? Easier to ask where does that leave the West … answer is stuck in gung ho camps, slanging at each other. In this, the slaughtered victims never seem to count, they’re skipped past, as Alex .

Below are various views on the situation and I’m going to suggest that unless you sit through the long, long, Alex Mercouros vlog on it, in which he brings receipts from the 12 day war onwards, not only are you going to miss Russia glossing over the massacres, which it denies, but you’ll also miss the uselessness of US foreign policy, the same old, same old again:

Plough Monday

In that post, you’ll find the Mercouris vlog … I urge you again to sit through it if you would like to be considered au fait with the overview of the subject.

Without repeating them, please skip back to various post items I’ve done on Iran, from the victims’ point of view. But Mercouris does modify that view.

And now to this lady … here’s her profile:

… and here’s what she states:


Next stop is Steve, who left this last evening:

Monday 14. The issue is not whether Trump ever intended to rescue the Iranis – maybe he doesn’t have to..

Fine, so I went to comments and here are various examples, in no particular order:



And two from X from other people:

Just had a quick look at X and nothing substantial has changed … DJT has still done nothing.

Lastly, this word Myrmidon which I plan to use for the killers:

The Myrmidons were legendary, fierce warriors from Thessaly, famous in Greek mythology as the loyal army of the hero Achilles during the Trojan War, known for their incredible strength and tireless devotion, stemming from myths where they were either descendants of a man (Myrmidon) fathered by Zeus and an ant-like princess, or were themselves transformed from ants into people by Zeus to provide subjects for his son. Their name comes from the Greek word for “ant” (myrmex), symbolizing their industrious and formidable nature, often depicted wearing dark armour.
