Tuesday [21 till close of play]

(1807) Evening all.

 

25. To our chaps and chapesses

Was remarkably slack this morning, me … the instinct was not to badmouth Robert Kenyon because he somehow seemed “Restorish” to us, not Faragist. That may still be true. However, I did not put this notice up in time.

Meanwhile, “British Bastard” used wayback the instant he knew RK had deleted his whole social media presence … kudos to BB. What exactly was it that he was worried about, RK? Well, there was a tweet in which someone had mentioned misogyny and the Makerfield Reformer replied … wot, like what women are forced to wear?

Now, Zia, the Reform controller (allegedly) would not like that. All right, anyone have anything on Robert Kenyon? Far from wanting to hurt the guy, we’d just like to be more clear.

24. Manufacturing consent

“The Unite the Kingdom rally was an outlier in recent London marches in having no mass chants calling for death to minority groups, yet perversely this was the one Sir Keir Starmer chose to condemn, says Jonathan Sacerdoti in the Spectator. Here’s an excerpt

Perhaps the strangest thing about the Unite the Kingdom rally was just how unremarkable it felt. There were no mass chants calling for the death of particular groups, no calls for the eradication of foreign countries and no flags of terrorist groups or tyrannical theocracies waved in the crowd. Nobody cited scripture to urge the slaughter of another people, nobody waved terrorist symbols and nobody I saw during the entire day covered their face.

We live in such peculiar times that this is what set the march apart from the dozens of others which have descended on the streets of London over the last couple of years, totally unchallenged – even protected – by the police and our Government.

Yet this outlier was the first march Keir Starmer decided to speak out against since taking office as Prime Minister, threatening police action and the full force of the law against those involved, and pulling out all the stops to block foreign speakers from entering the country at the last minute.

Of all the political protests we’ve witnessed since Labour won the General Election – and we’ve witnessed many – this was the one he chose to obstruct repeatedly. This was the hill he chose to die on.

And just in case anyone had forgotten what the other type of march looks like, they handily held one just around the corner so we could compare and contrast. The far-Left omnicause supporters took to the streets waving their PLO and Iranian flags – the ones representing the Islamic Republic regime, not the sun-and-lion version indicating solidarity with the Iranian people. Some were even sporting Al-Qassam Brigades red triangles, a symbol made popular by the terrorists when marking out targets for death in videos.

Unite the Kingdom focused mostly on domestic issues, British society and Christianity. Mostly the crowd waved Union flags, St George’s crosses and saltires. The other march featured few no Union flags, but a sea of red, white, green and black PLO flags.”

(0915) Time plummets headlong onwards, this Tuesday. (0915)

 

10. Moo corner


9. Maybe we’ve already had this one

… here tis again:


8. Today’s twofer


7. Now, DAD’s new pic of his extensive manor

… newly mown:


Super pic but in landscape mode, not greatly usable in the sidebar. To use in the sidebar, I need to find the original, save twice more, and make one from the tree to just past the Summer House … and the second from the left of the Summer House to the right edge.

Which I shall now do.

The radius and the right-angled triangle

 

It was at Monday 17 … DAD sends this solution:

“No 17 Radius = 5.

Proof is too long to print here, but we can confirm the answer from the Small Triangle 4, (8-r) and r. 4squared + (8-r) squared = r squared. 

If r=5 then the sum of [4squared + (8-r)] squared = 16 + 9 = 25 Therefore r = the square root of 25; which = 5 QED.

IE we have the 3:4;5 right angle triangle.”

……

JH: Wunnerful. Wonder if this might also help:

Tuesday [3 to 5]

(0715) Vastly more important than Massie or Makerfield is Julia on her way to Newcastle … I did ask if she’d packed her coals. Champion, champion. (0744)

2. This Massie Thing

Best method might be to just load the sshots and leave it at that. You need more? It helps to actually be on X … for example Steve’s on the rally he posts as Xes. If I run a series of X embeddings, this site autoexpands them. If I run it as a |url, it appears as a url.

(I’ve started coughing now, nose, throat ears … this is a newish thing happening in this setting.)

Right … why is Massie important to us? Because it’s crucial to them and Them, plus that primary is today in Kentucky.

Note that there’s no poll size mentioned below:


1. Housekeeping related to This Massie Thing

Before getting onto that topic, chaps and chapesses, there’s the little matter of your publican’s health here. It’s no more nor less important than your own, readers, except that it does affect how much screen time I can afford before the pain starts.

My rationale is that our readership is fairly closed or rather self-closing, e.g. references to 1385 make sense to our regulars, Watchlist, navbar, sidebar comments and so on. Lord Toby’s site means something, also Malsi.

One thing I’d best start inserting in anything UK govt is “alleged” … readers know why. Same applies to Massie above but it’s less fraught with thug plod danger. The good ole colloquialism or euphemism is something all “droppers” should be aware of.

As far as bias goes, the publican is clearly biased towards the Brit non-Woke and is a tad impatient with both the Israel and Hamas lobbies … and yet, and yet … they’re interested in us and as our gallant “leaders” are in thrall to some lobby or another … EU, WEF, black nobility, red shield etc. … then it must be taken into account. IYE’s bias is known due to his digging and his piece is in comments, whereas mine is this morning front page Tue 2.

Why? Partly because zion or royal critical is best accessed from our remote locations, whereas Loomer can be accessed in sshot form here, mainly because I couldna be bothered redacting … not feeling all that well. Not a perfect system but it’s what IS just now.
