(0507) Greetings, patrons and occasionals. The theme for the day has chosen itself … eccentricity and madness … and to cover it is going to take some time, plus I have a fairly major domestic task later. (0559)

a) Two runaway teenagers … were rescued in the Escanaux district of Bagnols-sur-Cèze, an area known for its constant drug trafficking…..

b) Cigarettes, laughing gas, aphrodisiacs… numerous illegal products are sold 24/7 at the Manouchian market, located in Vitry-sur-Seine in the Val-de-Marne department, which has become one of France’s largest illegal supermarkets.

c) The World Economic Forum (WEF) is demanding that global governments enforce bans on members of the general public growing food at home in order to supposedly lower “emissions.”

2. Reform needs drastic reform

Chris Littlewood was chair of Reform for Chester North and Neston / Ellesmere Port and Bromborough.

On Friday, March 14, 2025, 17:10 GMT, they all resigned from Reform over the mayhem at the top … this is them:

Chris Littlewood, Chair, Bianca Leaver, Deputy Chair, Jacky, Secretary, Peter Leaver, Treasurer, Saffron, Campaign Manager

Chris has now posted this, concerning:

Why are people not voting?

Because they know it is rigged. Because they know it does not matter. Because every time they turn up at the ballot box, they get shafted all over again. People are not staying home because they are lazy. They are staying home because they see through the bullshit. They have been lied to, ignored, used for votes, then discarded like cannon fodder while the same corrupt politicians keep running the country into the ground.

They know the Tories do not care about them. They know Labour despises them. They know the Lib Dems are a joke. They know the Green Party is full of lunatics who would rather bankrupt the country than fix anything.

So what do they do? They walk away. They switch off. They disengage. Because what is the point of playing a game when you know it is rigged? And here is the real crime. Reform UK was supposed to change that. It was supposed to be the party that spoke for the people who had given up.

But instead? It is chasing the same 28% who already vote, while ignoring the millions who have abandoned the system. It is watering down its message, trying to sound “respectable” for people who hate everything we stand for. It is owned by two people who control everything, with zero real democracy, zero accountability, and no interest in letting members have a say. It has become just another top-down political machine, where decisions are made behind closed doors, and if you do not agree, you are gone.

That is not how you win. That is how you lose before you even start. Trump did not win by playing nice. He did not win by watering down his message to appease his enemies. He went straight to the people the system abandoned, looked them in the eye, and said: “I see you. I hear you. And I am going to fight for you.” That is how you win. Not by begging for scraps from a corrupt system, but by smashing the table and flipping the game on its head.

That is what Reform should have been doing, mobilising the millions who have given up, giving them a reason to believe in politics again. But it will not. It can not. Because Reform is not a real movement. It is a private company, controlled by two people who answer to no one. That is why I walked away. Because Britain needs Reform.

But before that, Reform needs reform. And if they will not do it, then we damn well will.

1. IYE in comments

This week’s fakes from MM:

“And in other news, you have a SpaceX Dragon about to take off to relieve the two astronauts that have
been stranded on the Space Station since June of last year—nine months. You do release this is all fake
as well, right?

First of all, a SpaceX rocket just blew up last week, so I don’t know who thought it was a good idea to
put four astronauts on a SpaceX rocket this week. Is all oversight gone? There is no continuity with
these stories, as usual. They just say whatever they want, figuring you aren’t paying attention.

Plus, do you know how much food and water two people eat/drink in 9 months? Think about stacking
up all the groceries you have bought since last June. You need about four pounds of food a day, plus
about two gallons of water to drink and bathe. A gallon of water weighs over 8 pounds, so in nine
months you are looking at 10,800 pounds for two people. That’s five and half tons. Plus at least
another two tons of toiletries like shampoo, toothpaste, toilet paper, razor blades, towels, and so on.

Are they sleeping on the same sheets for nine months? If not, add that. Same underwear?
So where are all these supplies coming from? Uber Eats? Dominos? Do you really think they are
carrying eight tons, or the equivalent of two large elephants, in this little capsule?”
