4. Op Ed on Gorton and Denton, Great Yarmouth

Reform has indicated (on X) its intention of contesting Great Yarmouth at the next GE. With Rupert currently on 40 to 60% approval over there, things can change for both sides. Meanwhile, in G&D:

“Thursday, 26 February 2026. It was triggered by the resignation of Andrew Gwynne, who was sitting as an independent following his suspension from the Labour Party in February 2025. Gwynne said his resignation was due to “significant ill health”, and advice from his doctor that it was unsafe for him to return to work.”

Labour is projected to run third, Greens and Reform seem the two but Advance have local boy Nick Buckley. Restore were formed too late to contest it. Naturally, there’ll be skullduggery in the count and it might end up a Green gain for that clown. The key is going to be more how Reform performs after the advent of Restore.

There’ll be no “merger” of Advance and Restore. 🍿🍿🍿🍿

2. Vox on Taiwan and related matters

… a most interesting analysis, e.g.

“What has mostly been suppressed is the cost of defending against Iran’s response. Iran launched roughly 550 ballistic missiles and over 1,000 drones during the Twelve-Day War. The official “90% interception rate” is a masterwork of selective statistics: it describes the success rate of attempted intercepts. Al Jazeera’s analysis found that of 574 missiles, only 257 were engaged at all. The remaining 317 were never intercepted. Of the 257 attempts, 201 succeeded, 20 partially, 36 failed.”

Fairly obvious whom they’re presenting the two characters as. Fairly sceptical that it’s him, maybe it’s her. Not sure.

16. Daily Sceptic

Just why would any country want this?

Benedict Smith in the Telegraph. Here’s an excerpt.

Just over a decade ago, Aberdeen was thriving.

It was the gateway to Britain’s North Sea oil and gas industry. Average weekly earnings were higher only in London and it consistently ranked among the top UK cities for business and jobs growth.

At £215,000, property prices were nearly double the Scottish average, having risen 165% in just 10 years as the area boomed.

Following the scent of oil and gas, new arrivals appeared in their droves to fill highly paid positions. Between 2004 and 2015, the population jumped by nearly 20,000 and local businesses flourished.

The picture is starkly different today. Tumbling oil prices, punitive taxes and the underwhelming advance of renewables have tipped the North Sea energy industry into a spiral of accelerated decline that is taking Aberdeen’s property market down with it.

15. Could we expect any better?

14. At least these are known traitors

13. This is in a similar vein

This creature is one of the most despicable in many people’s minds:

Thing is … she’s meant to be Christian … or at least Catholic … but she turns out to be a raving left lunatic with zero loyalty to the country maintaining her on its SC. At least Roberts can plead Epstein Island vileness and the need to protect himself.

It’s not unlike if I were to discover, about a darling I’ve supported for a long time, that she’s in fact into eugenics, “perfect human crafting” … or else it’s some guy who says sensible things but I find out he’s into little boys … I mean, to discover such things is no summer holiday.

8. The girl from Sissingdon

Her name is Katie Lam, born 1991, originally from Guildford, previously Head Girl at school, like two of my own friends, and is the only Tory MP speaking out decently on Brit issues felt by most indigenous people here.

I was looking at marriage and children but alas, she seems one of those career girls. There’s some man very much in the background.

6. Jennifer Daskal

Who? She’s a law “professor” from American University in DC. Yes. And what? There’s wide objection to her latest appointment. The following screenshots point to it.

That last one is my connection with the Daskel issue.

4. Been looking again at Gab

… as I have a friend there from the old gabbing days before the UK govt cut the nexus. It came back recently, Gab, and I made contact again with various people on the mutual-follow list but we do have an issue, and this issue is followed up in Sat 6 later … namely that increased horrors from above have turned each of us back into our own more localised issues.

For example, we’re in the Restore v Reform brouhaha just now in the UK, whilst the US has issues ranging from Bannon to Sat 6 to Texas (Sat 7). The pressure to let those on the outer fall away … true allies … is immense, even when the issues are existential and we need our allies more than ever.

2. Op Ed of sorts … holding firm

The fact of the matter is we’re under severe pressure, each of us, from personal issues to societal to global and I’m of the opinion that this is precisely the time to stick together, not to fall apart over this or that, over sleights we may feel others have committed, over this person or that becoming too big for his boots.

In short, this is precisely the time to cut our known allies some slack, not to cut ties, at the most severe time in modern western history since WW2 … this is highly abnormal just now and the horrors unleashed above seep down to us at personal level … I’m thinking of Andy just now displaced from his home and he’s but one.

This is not the time to fall out, to abandon, but a time to stand firm in the west, are I say in each case … one nation under God, charity beginning at home.

a) Is France Protecting Quentin’s Killers? Much of France’s political and media establishment has minimised the killing and resisted scrutiny of the far-left figures connected to the case. France is still reeling from the death of young nationalist activist Quentin, who was lynched by anti-fascists in Lyon on Thursday, February 12th….

b) After the killing of Quentin, a French Student, will Europe designate Antifa a Terrorist Organization?

c) Euthanasie et trafic d’organes – remember that organs have to be harvested whilst the body is living. From there, it’s a short step to thinking that some will use “assisted dying” to harvest organs….

d) Why France Is, financally, a basket case.
