(0515) Morning all … seems much cooler at this stage, not a well cat just now chez higham, hope to be back together by maybe 0700. Trusting you got through the heat all right. (0630) In better nick now, still warmish though one more day. (0647)
5. Govt more than beyond the pale
4. Yet Abbott is facilitating the whole thing
3. Lines of defence
2. DAD at 1424
a) German army only recruits 530 people after asking 300,000. While the response rate from men was high at 96 per cent, the actual conversion rate into voluntary service has been extremely low….
b) Germany: AfD ban debated – again. A report produced by an NGO claiming to be a protector of fundamental freedoms has revived plans to get rid of Germany’s main opposition party, suggesting it is ‘unconstitutional.’….
c) Spain’s PM Sánchez defies any political logic known in Western democracies. No leader could even attempt to cling to power while completely surrounded by serious judicial investigation….
This is returning to the Marple series sent by IYE
Now, sorry to present it in this messy way, first post for the day, but yes, it will be necessary for you to click HERE to access it. Ta to IYE. It was working minutes ago when I checked.
Cunning plan is not necessarily to watch right now but rather as and when you are ready. Ditto with the Madison Affair posted later … way too long for one sitting, so it is also as and when.
On top of that, we do have a Brett-Holmes in the wings, plus an old detective mystery, American, and one British. So we’re not film and radio skint this weekend at least.
On the other hand, the usual short doc offerings are poor at this moment. The one at around 0800 is ok but that’s that for now. Shall need to find sommit other.
(1717) Evening all. Temp going down a degree an hour.
18. “Teachers” have much to answer for today
17. The overweening contempt from the political class
16. A tad puzzled
This afternoon, I was about to get some more politics together but saw various Paul Temple episodes, deleted one … Intervenes … the first, not very good … saw on the list:
… some excellent Coke-Westburies, e.g. The Geneva Affair … but then saw Madison, we’ve already run it, saw it was Logan-Stevenson and … well, I started listening, didn’t I. Yes, and it was one excellent episode, to the point I could not get away.
Realised that it was Gerda Stevenson who was the glue, yet vulnerable too, not an I Can Do Anything type who, quite frankly, is a bore. Yet GS turns more stories towards the solution than anyone. Brave too. Yes yes, it’s fiction … and yet … and yet. These episodes from 2006 to 13 have some je ne sais quoi. Why? Why? What do they have?
There was a good Brett Holmes, another a British thriller of yore, plus this below, which apparently had much audience currency at the time, though only 1:07 long.
(0459) Morning all. Nose says rain but who knows? (0545)
5. Caitlin Clark
Yes, Caitlin is Woke, she just lets it happen, like Iryna who goes places completely undefended and just “puts up with” the mistreatment, coz in their heads, they’re now Big League girls. How many X clips have the girl walking alone into a space, awaiting the lurking marauders? Did you read about the two Scandinavian girls in Morocco, oblivious to danger, just lurving refugees => one crying for her mother as her head was hacked off.
Wokeism is the bane of girls in the west, plus boys with mental problems … plus the elderly. Plus the simple.
Now, this creature who injured Caitlin, in connivance with the referee? Another issue of institutional racism.

2. DAD at 1423
a) A 17-year-old French boy beaten to death in ambush, filmed by laughing assailants. Louis has been described as a vulnerable personality, suffering in particular from an attention disorder.
b) AfD strengthens grip on Eastern Germany as Brandenburg support reaches 37%. The right-wing party has more support than the state’s governing coalition parties combined….
c) The UN wants to be One World Government and it starts with a carbon tax on ships and planes. Here we go again — the UN will try again in October to get its own income stream.
d) A few days ago I posted a video of a wreath laying assembly in Glasgow. There has been another, this time in Edinburgh….
1. Lord Toby’s
… sensationalist journo version:
An electric London bus has burst into flames during the June heatwave, destroying it and two electric charging points and forcing a nearby Tube station to close, with smoke visible for miles around. The Telegraph has more.
Footage captured the double-decker on fire at a bus depot in Westbourne Park, west London, on Wednesday evening. The bus and two electric charging points were destroyed in the blaze.
Workers could be seen watching in shock as flames tore through the No. 23 bus, which goes between Westbourne Park and Aldwych. The cause of the fire is under investigation.
More than two dozen firemen tackled the fire at the depot on Great Western Road. It was extinguished in less than an hour.
I have a few thoughts 🤔 The policies of Restore Britain are great, brilliant, very much "our guys" leading the charge there. It will lead to millions leaving, a step towards demographic security, lovely, delicious, a tasty morsel. The figurehead that is supposed to be pushing… https://t.co/4jSpCqJXNi

This is the context of what Rupert Lowe said.
David Clews conveniently edited this clip to rage bait people on the Right. David Clews is desperately skint, we know that.
