4. The fourth item lost was about education

It’s mentioned at OoL … how the items were removed by some tosser … but Toodles’s quote points out that this thing has been going on a long time now … mindless, creepy seventies onwards, based on no known science … the posts of mine removed by the tosser were quoted educational articles, precisely on why all these changes were at odds with child psychology and could only lead to anti-social behaviour and insecurity in children … so they go wild.

Here’s Toodles’s text:

Education. What we have today has been in the works a long time. The creepy seventies and the fads in teaching. Open classrooms and pods and group …too much of that…cooperative learning…that is what they called it. Sone of that is fine….but really that is stupid.

The Americans would go to England to study education for their master’s. Japan and other Asians would come here and observe our public school schools and classrooms. I know they came to Mobile and I know the schools they visited. Oh my, oh my….did they not go home tee hee heeing about us!

They knew they had us in their clutches back then! I cannot begin to tell you how undisciplined sone schools were. At one school at the end of the day the teachers let their children out and the halls were wild. No exaggeration. They would run at full speed darting in and out and all sizes and ages.

Hey I understand they were wanting to get out and going. I understand the students letting off steam but the way they were allowed to behave was just terrible. Absolutely out of control. Dangerous. I would stand outside my door…and I was not a curmudgeon teacher….and make them slow down a bit and no darting, pushing willy nilly. I was the only teacher doing that. I could just see someone getting hurt and very hurt.

It was by the grace of God that no one that I know of got hurt. 

3. The third item lost was this

Christian preacher, Hatun Tash, has won a £10,000 settlement after being falsely arrested again at Speakers’ Corner in London.

On Sunday 26 June 2022, Hatun was setting up a camera at a crowded Speakers’ Corner preparing to preach. As she was setting up, a man snuck up on her belongings, grabbed her copy of the Qur’an and ran off through the crowd.

The Christian friends accompanying Hatun called the police to report the theft. However, as the police arrive, instead of establishing what happened, without any discussion, an officer tries to draw her away from the growing crowd.

Refusing to move from where she planned to preach, the officers then put Hatun in a hold and began to frog-march her through the crowds to waiting police vans.

The video which goes with it is DAD item “d”. Now this two-tier plod policing … don’t those men and token women have any feeling of shame, of right and wrong? Any moral spine? Let alone British and English law going back centuries now?

2. DAD

One of the post items I lost was the DAD drop summary … sorry but I’m not doing it over again … (and it’s good too):

HERE

1. WordPress is utter trash

The joke is that my techie mate, trying to wind me up yesterday, said I’d been “moaning” the whole time about this stoopid bloody block system they impose on bloggers.

I pointed out that I went ballistic around the time of the loss of the second last site (Chuckles and Wolfie era) … that was true. Since then, I have not … or rather had not … even through the fixing of NOWP, even through the setting up and running of UHC … all was well to that point.

With this site, I made a major error this morning … trying to blockquote. A simple operation at Blgr … select the text, press blockquote. Done. It just indents the text.

Not at WP which the scriptkiddies got to … oh bloody no … all this *&£#@#£&* stoopid crap in composing forced on us, to overwhelming protest from users. Trouble is … there really are only two choices on earth right now … Blgr and WP. Yes, I’ve tried Ghost … it’s rubbish, I’ve no time to P about with things like that at a most unsettled time, domestically and with health.

Thus, to get anything out for you to read … I’m afraid it’s this new sodding WP composing pig’s breakfast.

My second error was to try to escape all this block grouping or whatever … why the hell can’t we just write a bloody post and post it? Total waste of time this morning from 3 a.m. until 7 a.m. … four bloody hours gone.

(1524) Afternoon all.

8. War Room with Steve

Both parts of 814:6 are important.

7. Reform

Pretty impressive start to their conference … you may like to look at 814 items 2 and 3 (unnumbered). Also these:

Just bumped into @NickGoulding4 in the queue for #ReformUK24 @reformparty_uk 🇬🇧 pic.twitter.com/XK0jMGvJP0

— David Bellamy 🇬🇧 #ReformUK24 (@OtherBellamy) September 20, 2024

It’s looking pretty exciting … Jenrick and Jenkyns of the former conservatives are trying to reverse it now they’re out of power but they’re a busted flush.

a. What’s this?

b. Is gravity the same everywhere on earth?

c. Maxwell’s equations, plus L****** force law, form the foundation of classical electromagnetism, classical optics, electric and magnetic circuits.

d. The purpose of an alkyd in art?

e. Which non-English team won the FA Cup and when?

f. How many is a quire?

g. On our nudiustertian day, HQ ran Downtown Train and showed Bezo’s bird. Which day was that in day-of-the-week terms?

Must admit I’d vastly prefer to run here pics of ladies from our side of the politico-moral ledger, which does mean I have to wait patiently. Two of these you’ll most likely not know … one a lady posting to X who wanted anyone “far-right” in that tongue in cheek way to follow and she’d follow back … one Rachel B … another a lady whose name I did not write down and have now forgotten.

The other two are public figures … one looking a bit AI, truth be told. The other is a show host. Utterly gorgeous, all of them.

(0915) Morning all! Bleah out there, not sure of the temp. (1049)

5. Another roundup

There’s a video up at Jstack too. Also Eva Vlaar:

A man armed with 2 large knives just killed one person and injured another by the Erasmus Bridge in Rotterdam. The man was shouting “Allahu Akbar” and was “out to attack as many people as possible” according to eyewitnesses, but got overpowered by a sports instructor.

I mean … seriously … I no longer have the patience. This is more an exercise in whether I can embed pictures with urls on this platform, more than asking you to see the YTs through.

The opening one with Charlie Kirk has some young ignoramus at the microphone and I applaud what they’re trying to do, the guys … to my mind, it’s a young person’s game (under 40 perhaps) to have the patience to deal with pig-ignorance and brainwashing … I once could, not now.

The second is a young teacher describing schools now … we know it’s so, we’ve been through it … seizing school admins, employing the wrong type, the parenting anyway today, the teaching curriculum and texts … I’d not put up with it … then again, I was at fee-paying or special schools, so it was far easier.

The third is about an arch karen with the frizzy hair and no sense of proportion … again, not so much to see it through as an exercise in url embedding.

Something I saw (no url embedded):

To my mind, the central issue is not just opposing views or how strongly they’re hardwired into that sort of brain … they could say the same for us … but that their lot are there to prevail, by hook or by crook, any which way and if they perceive that they’re not prevailing in an open forum … then they use other methods to prevail. The view itself is nowhere near as important as the need to prevail any which way, legal or not.

4. Roundup

Ben Leo:

Angela Rayner was gifted a five night News Year’s ‘personal holiday’ in Lord Alli’s luxury $2.5million New York penthouse overlooking Manhattan. According to her parliamentary declaration, she reckons the stay was worth £1,250 – or £250 a night.

Matt Gaetz:

The U.S. Army has wrongly told more than 10,000 soldiers that expressing pro-life views might make them TERRORISTS! Lieutenant General Patrick Matlock refuses to tell Congress whether anyone was fired, suspended, or demoted for screwing up this badly.

Jenkyns was not interested whilst in govt:

People across Europe and the UK are sick of the globalist agenda. They want to see a return to the nation state where we look after our own people.

Wyatt:

So when Lebron James told the world with excitement that there ain’t no party like a Diddy party, was there a reason he didn’t mention the child sex trafficking and all the rape and torture?

Globopsycho Tusk:

Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk informs Poles that German soldiers are arriving in Poland to help with the flooding disaster: “If you see German soldiers, don’t panic. They are here to help”

3. AKH and Victoria Sponge

Darren Grimes:

… Starmer on the ferry to buy Victoria Sponge some goodies on Lord Alli’s credit card. On the way over, he explains to Lady Sponge …

Luv it. Must admit I’d missed the reference (slaps own face, hard) … so let’s run with this, from Nigella:

2. DAD, across at 814

a) The dissolution of the National Assembly caused by Emmanuel Macron and the early legislative elections that followed triggered a vast and costly plan of layoffs in the teams of the 133 deputies who were not re-elected.

b) Another Macron headache. A partial renewable curfew has been established in France’s overseas region of Martinique in the Caribbean amid protests about the high cost of living there.

c) Electric vehicles [EVs] are causing problems.

i) European car sales have continued to decline with the major markets in the European Union being hit hard …..

ii) Chinese hotels and property managers have begun to ban all electric vehicles – scooters, e-bikes, family cars or commercial vans – from their undercroft car parks.

1. The old “free speech” arguments again

It’s TDS again (blogrolls):

A free speech group has said it was kicked out of a Brighton pub after saying children should not be taught trans ideology in schools. The Telegraph has the story.

About 50 members of Free Speech Brighton were ordered to leave the Southern Belle, a hotel and pub in the city, during an evening of speeches on Tuesday, the group claimed.

The landlord is said to have disapproved of one of the speeches regarding the teaching of gender ideology in schools and asked security guards to eject the entire group.

The pub refused to comment on the incident and the security firm, Pagoda Security, did not respond when contacted by the Telegraph.

Free Speech Brighton, a sister group of the Free Speech Union, had pre-booked a back room of the pub for the meeting, and brought a microphone and speaker for members to make speeches. …

The incident prompted a furious reaction on social media, and the Free Speech Union has threatened the pub with legal action unless the landlord apologises and allows the meeting to be rebooked.

This is potentially explosive, esp. for us on the vaguely “free speech” side. On one side are those who say that “no matter how obnoxious I become, loud, smelly, you gotta lump it coz it’s my right to infringe on you” … libertine-ism, not libertarianism … then the classical liberal who says “maximum freedom possible, limited only by its harm to anyone close or within range”.

While the latter is the more sane option, it’s also the more notoriously difficult to define, codify, make laws for … esp. if one side is Woke-brainwashed and the other is us … and ne’er the twain shall meet halfway. But it’s also the only sane option of the two, steeped in reality. If someone’s being obnoxious, my options are to ask him to “tone it down a little”, “a little more quietly perhaps” or to vote with my feet.

But trapped in a space with that creature, the options change. Now, what about the normies in that pub? Obviously that day, private room, it was still an issue. Then there were the viewpoints. Seems to me they needed to do their homework a bit better, as did the landlord. On our nourishing unherdables sign out front, it’s clearly Woke-unfriendly … to my mind, that’s us … regressives can have their own Wokerati centre some other place.

That’s the sane way but the Wokerati aren’t sane … they’re fanatical about snuffing out our way of life, traditions, culture, history. There’s the rub.

(1456)(1758) Time simply gets away … three hours, just like that.

15. Toodles warns about this video

… and yet it’s one which, once it gets going, and you buy what it says about “mandating” US companies to go communist … really shows the necessity of being rid of the EU in its entirety. My entire blogging life, my aim was not so much Brexit, though I voted that way … no, it was to utterly destroy that giant toad, the EU … it gives zero to the people under its yoke.

The girl is born in 92, so still young, also she was in with Glenn Beck, Dan Crenshaw and I can see alarm bells and red flags at our place going off in all directions. She did leave and make her own way, but it’s a rambling way, stuffed full of both superimposed ads at any moment, plus her own … she might be speaking on topic at last, then suddenly starts selling something.

Most offputting and yet her heart seems good, plus she’s a southern conservative gal, Reformed church, whatever they believe. Reader … if you can get past all the impediments and concentrate on the guest once he’s allowed to lay it out … as Toodles warns me might be worth it, then you’ll see the pincer movement on the entire west which the EU and other creepy crawlies are attempting with their hardball, threatening way of operating.

They must be thrown off completely, the EU, the high ups executed henceforth.

12. Vox on Germany

HERE

A Germany full of Germans is an economic powerhouse. An area of 357,022 square kilometers in the middle of Europe populated primarily by German-speaking Turks, Arabs, and Africans will be neither German nor an economic powerhouse. This is not rocket science.
