(0930) The cunning plan is that there is no plan. There are some more politics, then the IYE film, then maybe my visitor arrives and you all go to the pub or beach for awhile. (0941)
17. Yes please
16. The honeypot problem
… not just for pollies either:
15. Progress? One can only hope
14. Everyone but us
13. Yes I know there’s a be careful sign around her neck but
12. Rumble and Bitchute
Steve wrote of Rumble earlier (see sidebar). Seems it’s Bitchute as well:
To our valued users in the United Kingdom:
After careful review and ongoing evaluation of the regulatory landscape in the United Kingdom, we regret to inform you that BitChute will be discontinuing its video sharing service for UK residents.
The introduction of the UK Online Safety Act of 2023 has brought about significant changes in the regulatory framework governing online content and community interactions. Notably, the Act contains sweeping provisions and onerous corrective measures with respect to content moderation and enforcement.
In particular, the broad enforcement powers granted to the regulator of communication services, Ofcom, have raised concerns regarding the open-ended and unpredictable nature of regulatory compliance for our platform.
Don’t you just adore this gummint. Immediate implication for us at HQ is films … Bitchute was a key source, after YT … we have one from IYE today but after that … we takes our chances, chaps and chapesses.
The Art of the Deal by Donald J. Trump..
‘Based on the lack of respect that China has shown to the World’s Markets, I am hereby raising the Tariff charged to China by the United States of America to 125%, effective immediately. At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S.A., and other Countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable. Conversely, and based on the fact that more than 75 Countries have called Representatives of the United States, including the Departments of Commerce, Treasury, and the USTR, to negotiate a solution to the subjects being discussed relative to Trade, Trade Barriers, Tariffs, Currency Manipulation, and Non Monetary Tariffs, and that these Countries have not, at my strong suggestion, retaliated in any way, shape, or form against the United States, I have authorized a 90 day PAUSE, and a substantially lowered Reciprocal Tariff during this period, of 10%, also effective immediately. Thank you for your attention to this matter!’
On hearing the news the stock market soared reaching near-record highs 🙂
12. Makes a change for something to be banned first over here (Rumble) but B/chute and Old/B/chute still be available.
However, The Saint series on Wayback now gets a warning flash:
“THIS ITEM CONTAINS CONTENT SOME
MAY FIND INAPPROPRIATE OR OFFENSIVE
DISCRETION IS ADVISED”
Then comes the declaration that you understand and still wish to view. The kicker comes then when the next pop-up states you have to sign in.
Just leave us alone and stop nannying us. Please.
re: ramble and but shoot ( & several similar “changes”),
is the term
“Great Brit Ton”
still applicable?
