A Grand Day Out
The Likely Ladies …
The Likely Lads …
Oh dear, here they go, the agents provocateurs:
Everyone lives something like this … grand fun but with serious undertones
(1052) Approaching elevenses here, approaching rally day in London. (1113)
……
Well everyone seems to be in a good mood in London
… so far of course:
Next in the formulaic series, perhaps an AI voice, perhaps not … take special note of the 5th word in the narration.
Well, for once I have one of the almost approved brands, gastric issues postponed.
(0729) Clouding right over now. Just checking our local forecast … 13/6, light rain and winds. Still awaiting a good Moo … shall post when available. (1002)

On Fri 23: The CIA ā ceased being a force for good five minutes after it took over from the Office of Strategic Services (1942-45)..
Mr. Pool:
“Intentional.” That’s the word a CIA officer used. Under oath. In the United States Senate. Yesterday. Not “negligent.” Not “misguided.” Not “a failure of communication.” INTENTIONAL. James Erdman III.
Twenty years inside the CIA. Firsthand knowledge. He sat in front of Congress and said what got you banned, fired, and silenced in 2020: The lab made it. Fauci knew. The CIA knew. THEY BURIED IT. Their own analysts said lab leak was the most likely origin. They were overruled. Not by science. By ONE MAN who funded the lab, hid the receipts, and stacked the investigation so the conclusion was written before the first page was read.
You lost your job for saying this. You lost family for saying this. They deleted your posts. They locked your accounts. They called you a DANGER TO PUBLIC HEALTH for repeating what the CIA’s own scientists believed from day one. Yesterday ā under oath ā the United States government admitted YOU WERE RIGHT. Not partially. Not “in hindsight.” From the BEGINNING.
Every censored post. Every banned account. Every “fact-check” that buried the truth. Every doctor who was silenced. Every funeral that didn’t have to happen. INTENTIONAL. They didn’t make a mistake. They made a CHOICE.
And yesterday that choice was entered into the Congressional record with a name attached to it. Remember who lied. Remember who obeyed. Remember who KNEW.
Andrew Kolvet:
BOMBSHELL: Here is the entire opening statement from CIA whistleblower James Erdman lll. He testifies that Dr. Fauci’s role in the COVID cover-up was INTENTIONAL. He stacked the intelligence community’s analysis with conflicted scientists funded by NIAID who pushed the natural origin lie while obfuscating facts around a lab leak from Wuhan, China. CIA managers retaliated against analysts who refused to go along with the middle-of-the-night rewrite that buried the lab leak conclusion. Wow.
6. On DAD’s Sat 2b and 1383:11b
Geert Wilders was mentioned as one of the banned from the rally today. But why? I could explore Kassandra Troy’s prolific writing on Wilders a decade and a half ago … Dutch person about Dutch person … and how he’s controlled opposition, whilst appearing to be on a hit list for saying the right things. Might even ask her if I see her online today.
Now, if Kass is right, then what does that say about Streeting and Starmer … are they aware of the iffiness of Wilder, a bit like Meloni, Laila Cunnibgham etc.?
An American or AI voiced take on the British audio brand QUAD way back when…
I never owned one but a friend of a friend did … a 405, with the pre and main amp, plus radio … it was the dials as well as the clarity of sound we loved. While I was running my Bang & Olufsen through a pair of Celestion Ditton towers, with twin decks, VHS, turntable and mixer … he ran his QUAD through Bose 901 speakers … rather nice they were.
At the risk of being pernickety though, audiophiles and engineers might say that to run the clean QUAD signal through bass biased speakers did negate the advantages … however, we move on.
(0536) Some clear sky behind the cloud film out there but the air is still heavily laden. Morning all … watch eyes and skin. It’s going to take a while to cover all the incoming, ta chaps. All morning I’d say. Slept well here, but iffy inside still. (0643)
5. Once seen, can’t be unseen
4. At 1383: 2, 5, 4 and 3
… there are DAD, Andy and IYE. The chaps discuss fungal infections at some length.
3. Steve returns, welcome “home”
JH: With Steve, because of the sheer volume overall, it’s better to run, say, the Evets and HQ comments section X linked pieces separately.
2. DAD at 1383:11
a) Franceās push toward centralized digital identity systems has suffered a devastating blow after hackers breached a government-run ID platform containing highly sensitive personal information tied to millions of citizens….
b) In October 2009, Mr Streeting publicly expressed the desire to establish a vigilante group to throw opponents under trains. One of the individuals singled out for physical elimination by Britainās current Health Secretary was me (Geert Wilders)….
c) Met Police faces Two-Tier Row over Facial Recognition at Tommy Robinson Rally. The Metropolitan Police confirmed that live facial recognition (LFR) technology will be deployed at a rally organised by Tommy Robinson, but not at a nearby pro-Palestinian march marking Nakba Day…
d) The Romanian Ministry of Finance released a staggering report on May 13th, detailing a massive, repetitive flow of cash across the nationās borders during 2024 and 2025ā¦.
e) āReselling these books isnāt in the spirit of the placeā: Little Free Libraries Fall Victims of Looting in Val-de-Marne. In Vincennes and Maisons-Alfort, in particular, people are taking the books to resell them.

28. Love the comments under this very post
… thanks, chaps … shall feature them tomorrow, hoping for a report on the rally. There’s also Andy and DAD over at 1383 … about the cold.
27. Completely forgot to run this before this post
… so I ran it at UHC-WP just now. Think it’s worth it … I know we’ve had the song before, so let’s go back, Jack and do it again.

23. The CIA
22. Data Center anyone?
21. The TR rally
It was time for a film but I’d used up the gathered good ones … suddenly, there was this below but with strange aspects. A notice came on to switch on commentary. You wot? Throughout a film? I checked another version and a notice came up … this video requires payment to watch. Uh huh.
So, not sure if this will work or not …
(1045) Approaching elevenses, have to head out for a shortish break, taking us into post-prandial territory. In short … got some jobs to do. (1045)
20. Moo corner
19. MPs’ renting scandal
… snouts in the trough and alleged fraud:

17. For those who still don’t know her
… she’s the one kicked out of the Methodist hospital for doing the right thing and suffering all sorts of things which have turned her into a warrior, authority on meds and still practising MD (GP). Nice “pedigree”.
