12. Clarkson’s Farm on X

The UK government has spent years heaping costs, regulation and tax uncertainty onto British food producers, Farmers, and Small businesses – then turns around and tells the public to stockpile three days of tinned food and bottled water because “unexpected events seem to be becoming more common.”

Official figures show a net loss of more than 3,000 agriculture, forestry and fishing businesses in 2025 alone, the highest on record, with thousands more closures in the years before that.

Inheritance tax changes on family farms (even after partial U-turns), soaring energy and inspection costs, labour shortages, post-Brexit trade deals that opened the door to cheaper imports, and chaotic subsidy schemes that left most applicants empty-handed have all piled on the pressure.

Local abattoirs have collapsed from roughly 2,500 in the 1970s to around 200 today; surveys of farmers show large numbers warning they may have to stop producing meat locally or exit entirely if the next one closes.

This week the government launched its “Be Ready” campaign, advising households to keep non-perishable food, litres of bottled water per person, cash, torches and radios in case of cyber attacks, extreme weather or other disruptions. That is sensible basic preparedness.

What is absurd is watching the same state systematically weaken the domestic producers who actually grow and process the food that would make the country more resilient in the first place, while imports fill the gap and rural businesses fold.

You cannot talk seriously about national resilience and food security while watching the infrastructure that produces British food shrink year after year. The contradiction is obvious.

National Insurance

From House of Yres on X

2.2 MILLION NATIONAL INSURANCE REGISTRATIONS TO ADULT OVERSEAS NATIONALS IN THREE YEARS.

Who is registering, what nationalities are recorded, and where in the UK are they based? Here’s what the DWP’s Stat-Xplore data shows.

📊 THE ANNUAL TOTALS

• 2023/24: 1,000,530 • 2024/25: 642,210 • 2025/26: 561,508

Registrations fell by 12.6% in the latest year and by 43.9% compared with 2023/24. That decline belongs in the picture too.

🌍 THE 15 LARGEST NATIONALITY GROUPS April 2025–March 2026:

🇮🇳 India — 119,186 🇵🇰 Pakistan — 44,342 🇳🇬 Nigeria — 43,485 🇨🇳 China — 27,769 🇳🇵 Nepal — 23,566 🇺🇸 United States — 16,067 🇧🇩 Bangladesh — 15,264 🇺🇦 Ukraine — 12,843 🇮🇪 Ireland — 11,893 🇮🇷 Iran — 10,700 🇦🇺 Australia — 9,842 🇦🇫 Afghanistan — 9,480 🇬🇭 Ghana — 9,018 🇪🇷 Eritrea — 8,580 🇸🇩 Sudan — 7,703

Indian, Pakistani and Nigerian nationals together accounted for 207,013 registrations — 36.9% of the annual total. Across the full three years, the table records:

• India: 495,204 • Pakistan: 200,068 • Nigeria: 188,127

That is approximately 883,400 registrations from those three nationalities — 40.1% of the three-year total.

📍 WHERE IN THE UK?

For the year ending March 2026, DWP reports that 43% of registrations with a known UK address were in London or the South East.

The five largest local-authority totals, rounded by DWP, were:

• Newham — 18,000 • Birmingham — 18,000 • Manchester — 13,000 • Tower Hamlets — 10,000 • Glasgow City — 9,700

These locations reflect the address recorded when the person registered. What do these figures actually measure?

National Insurance registrations, classified by nationality at registration. They do not count everyone arriving during those years, measure net migration, or tell us how many people are still in the UK. Nationality also does not necessarily identify the country someone travelled from. A useful part of understanding migration — provided we are clear about what the numbers show.

Had this for awhile … try, take or leave.

6. The bizarre El Salvador v Haitian war

At Vox’s, a quoted article says:

With the announcement of the deployment from El Salvador to Haiti of a contingent of 3,000 troops, whose mission is to locate the 4 members of that country’s armed forces who were kidnapped last Sunday—when they entered territory controlled by gangs and were attacked by a gang of armed irregulars—fierce armed clashes are looming in the coming hours.At this point, knowing how things are resolved in Haiti, the chances of these soldiers still being alive are minimal…We thus have the table set for an armed confrontation just 45 km from the Dominican Republic-Haiti border: an army of armed gang members with nothing to lose facing off against regular El Salvadoran troops, who will fight an urban war in the streets of a country that isn’t theirs and is utterly unknown to them.

Vox says:

I wouldn’t bet against Bukele and the El Salvadorans. This is a spiritual war and the voodoo masters cannot stand against a Christian army.I don’t know that I’d be averse to him invading Hollywood and Los Angeles.

3. The policy of Denunciation

In Russia, very early in my stay there, the landlady told me about the Soviet policy of Denunciation, a formal policy in which a neighbour goes to a special office in the yard to officially denounce you, which results in official investigation, followed by whatever action they deem necessary and you now having a next to criminal record, a person of some concern to Authority.

Similar to the Blgr Ggl policy of anonymous complaint, Blgr Ggl then shuts down the site, pending investigation and summary punishment by some anonymous bunch.

What it does to social cohesion was of course the general idea planned into it. Soviet era but the office was still down there in the yard.

a) French Users flock to Bitchat amid Social Network shutdown fears’. France’s interior minister floated suspending social networks amid riots. Offline messenger Bitchat surged. France’s Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez may not have been trying to advertise the messenger app bitchat when he said that “social networks are becoming a real problem” and that the government had the option of “suspending the use of the networks,” but that’s exactly what seems to have happened.

b) France faces a critical choice as Zemmour eyes 2027 election amid rising unrest. France faces unprecedented civil unrest as coordinated riots by radical left-wing groups and immigrant-descended populations erupted in September, resulting in over 6,000 arrests and damage to more than 1,000 schools.

c) UK. Small-Boats Crossings are a policy choice, not a fact of nature. Small-boat crossings persist because of political decisions, and Britain has the power to reverse them.

d) Germany plans to force social media platforms to fill 20% of algorithmic recommendations with ‘state-approved’ content.
The German government wants to spam social media feeds of citizens with content from “pre-approved” media sources. The growing anti-government sentiment may have something to do with that trend.

e) Israel seals off Hebron and prepares full West Bank closure. The order came four days before a general election and a week after masked settlers attacked a convoy of European diplomats in the same territory.

1. Around the blogs

There’s enough current horror to blog on for sometime but I thought it still might be of value to revisit old haunts and one was Bruce Charlton’s:

“People apparently have difficulty understanding (or explaining to themselves) just why post-November 2022 “AI” is qualitatively worse than the previously-existing computer-media phenomena – such as the internet, social media and smartphones. 

The answer is quite simple: upfront and no secret. 

As usual; probably because evil must be invited into the heart in order to damage the soul; the agents of strategic evil always tell us what they intend for us, before they try to do it. 

In this case, “They” have told us explicitly that the purpose of “AI” is to replace human thinking, judgment, creativity – and loving-relationships.”

In Agatha Christie’s Death on the Nile, Hercule Poirot delivers this famous warning to Jacqueline de Belfort:

“Do not open your heart to evil. Because if you do, evil will come… It will enter in and make its home there, and after a little while it will not go away.”

Poirot says this after noticing Jacqueline’s intense, consuming bitterness and her dangerous obsession with reclaiming her former fiancé, Simon Doyle, who left her for her wealthy friend, Linnet Ridgeway.

23. Just thinking, with this rotten weather

… plus snow in various other places … maybe high on the list to pray for would be the homeless this evening. Not fun.

This sums it up better than anything I’ve seen so far

I’ve lived where this lady below did, though not in Soviet times for me. I spoke to many. Once they understood what govt was doing over here, they were nonplussed … “Why on earth would you want to have a Soviet Union we just escaped from?”

How could I tell them we do not want it in any way, shape or form? But we are powerless because enough wokeleft idiots go along with the bad people, the demons, thinking it’s actually a good thing. Half the west have zero idea, have never seen the horror for real.

It’s impossible to explain to western normies, esp. young girls, plus antifa/weathermen types. Govt is about to shut off lek and gas, plus look at the food additives. Next week, a govt gas man is coming to every flat to bgr something up, pretending it is inspecting. Let alone the dig-ID bollox age verification. This is real. It’s now!

In ten days, the US goes under. And the wokeleft are luvvin’ it.
