5. Key or core policy stumbling block

In other words, what’s our, your, policy on foreigners celebrating our/your national holidays?


I’d suggest that if it’s someone clearly from another land, even within the borders, such as the ambassador above, then it’s a noble gesture of friendship … especially if the wording keeps that distance as host/guest.

Meanwhile, what of Braverman, ethnic origins clear, plus has worked against the British people … or the equivalent of Obama over there? Or Starmer here?

Well we come back to Windrush/birthright again, don’t we? And I’d suggest that that separates Reform and Restore, for example.

But what of that black American yesterday who Xed that he is from an unbroken line for 200 years from the plantations? Someone back then stole the fore-parents … what then? Can he ever be American? And don’t forget that there is constitutional, Christian America versus Woke left Demonrats and RINOs … cultural chasm.

What of Ben Habib? Thomas Sowell?

4. Have the Demonrats been played?

2. Op ed of sorts on two topics

a) The Ghana romance scam

Very first thing I looked for, reading Fri 1a, was a photo of the woman involved in the scam. Elderly white lady, maybe not too bright. Romance offer, give us your money. In her case, killed in Ghana.

Where to start? If you saw the details, would your eyes look up at the ceiling, whilst feeling sorry for people’s stupidity? And it’s not just African gangs … it’s eastern European, Mexican, anywhere, and has been since at least Sherlock Holmes’s time. In our case, not being Woke left, what if it were a Swedish au pair looking lass, or a western or eastern European?

Whilst we know about the Woke left feminist who ends up alone with her cats, there’s also the tragedy of a lady outliving hubby … there are all sorts of scenarios. How do we warn the elderly (these days also about DNR, euthanasia, organ donating clauses)? We can’t … both male and female still fancy their chances past 50. It’s sad.

There are some measures the oldster, plus you*g g*rl can take but it’s counter-intuitive:

(i) No landlines, only calls whatsoever on mobiles from those in the address book and they should only be gummint or utilities, or close circle friends … no agreement to take callback. I tell any official person my phone is dumb, not smart, no apps … you can text but calls go to the ether. However, I shall call back that day having analysed the text. Or not at all. Keeping strictly to my own rule, no exceptions. I cite “security reasons”, then maybe ohone to check.

(ii) No clicking, even on the X provided, on any panel or popup, under any circumstances. None. Anything I view is on a tab in the navbar. What of you and an NOWP number? Double click for a start … do you trust Higham to protect you?

b) Salacious content … in this case, at 1362:1, I let you down because it’s most salacious. No no, saith the writer … it’s because I insist people wallow in the fine details over and over and over, day after day, until inured, until brutalised by the constant filth … as designed to happen by Them.

This is why there’s nowhere to get your kicks at Unherdables as a rule and today is forewarned. This is why I never allow items which talk about depravity and filth … such as THIS (followed by graphic pictures). Sorry, Unherdables does not play that game for specific reasons:

(i) Security of the site, not giving ghouls or baddies the slightest ammunition;

(ii) Tone … any reader coming here to one of the Unherdable outlets will not see anything salacious upfront, that’s right out. However we may give a warning and a link and over there, that author has a link.

I’ve written on this countless times since the Amanda Know, plus P*d*sta days. You might call that censorship … I call it pre-censorship. It’s like going to a restaurant, sure it’s not a strip show dive, as the place presents itself in a certain way everyone is aware of.

c) More on r@pe gangs.

The garden of earthly delights

 

Isilme checks in with her early spring report … she and Beloved are busy on outside ventures right now …

“Meanwhile, due to our lack of time, we pay a gardener to come in once a fortnight. Basically he’s digging up the beds ready to take the flowers / crops (we currently have beans germinating in the dining room). And he mows the lawn. I don’t think it’s ever looked as good as it does now!

The apple tree* is also nicely pruned. And the blueberry bushes that we thought were dead, are actually alive. At least, one of them is. And the branches we cut off the blackcurrant last year and stuck into the ground along the back wall are all growing!! Wondrous. Blackcurrants are our favourite.

Bluebells under the apple tree

I’m a bit worried about the bay tree though. I didn’t do enough research (or any, really) when I put it in the ground. It had been in a pot forever. When I say ‘pot’ it was actually an old paint pot….. Anyway, it was looking very poorly, so I thought we should perhaps put it in the ground for a while. It shot up.

And now I find it can grow to around 40ft and that definitely is not on! So we are going to get the gardener to hoik it up and pot it again. We might have to pay for a huge pot, but at least it won’t compromise the garden wall or interrupt the light to the windows.

Pink saxifrage

So, we’re germinating beans at the moment: butterbeans (which are really Greek gigante beans), runner beans and French beans (haricot). We seriously need to start thinking about tomatoes now.

This all sounds as if I do all the garden work. In reality it is Beloved who does most of it. I just point out where to plant things, and then gather them at harvest time. It’s easy really 😁

Red saxifrage

Our tulips are almost over now. We planted a row of them so that in the spring they would provide some bright, joyful colour in the front garden (it’s only small). Sadly, they all turned out to be white or a sort of insipid yellow with a peachy coloured blush. The mini ones were red/pink but only about 4 inches tall in total, so the flower was almost unnoticed amongst the fallen leaves of the red robin bush (I’m not sure its real name….) I was most disappointed.

Aubretia maybe

Never mind, the grape hyacinths are out in force, as are the bluebells. And the saxifrage looks lovely too. In fact, all kinds of flowers seem to be prolific and flowing, with one even engulfing our little watering can! I think it’s aubretia, but I can’t remember and I think the label is somewhere under all the flowers, and I don’t like to disturb it to check!

The apple trees are just beginning to blossom. The plums are over now. The blackcurrant is still covered in flowers and the bees are doing an admirable job. But although the new twigs by the back wall are happy and strong, they have no flowers yet. Maybe next year.

Apple blossom buds

The raspberries still look like dead twigs. Worrying. The self-seeded raspberry in one of the pots is going strong and putting out blossoms, so at least we won’t completely lose out.

The wild garlic is still out and about, and flowering profusely. I must do something with it. Bob is suggesting wild garlic salt – I think he just likes the idea of having green salt!! Anyway, I shall look into it. Otherwise, if I don’t use it in salads, sandwiches, etc I can make it into a soup and bottle it.

Pink flowing flowers

The purple sprouting broccoli is practically over. Just a few straggly bits that I might be able to use. So we move on to eating the leaves now, at least until the cabbage whites start fluttering around….

Well, that’s my garden at the moment. I’m pleasantly surprised that so much is going on, given the lack of sun until recently. But there’s nothing like a bit of sunshine and warmth to speed things up!

Thursday [11]

(1154) Almost afternoon all. Just back from my medical review and I’m afraid I have bad news for you … unless hit by a bus, nuke or three letter agency, I’m on your hands for a fair while still … sorry to annoy. (1234)

 

A certain unpleasantness recently


Yyyeeessssss, that was all well and fine, except for that clown coming in and trivialising it with the Steely Dan number … always has to be one, doesn’t there:

Thursday [6 to 10]

(0909) Greetings again after that interlude. (0927)

 

10. The NASA and related death toll climbs

I was going to run this at OoL but thought it would be none too secure over there.

… all the same.

Thursday [1 to 5]

(0616) Morning all, sunny out there through lightly poisoned cloud. It’s my “OoL morning” so I was over there for an hour just now, also correspondence. Have a good one. ((0715)

a) Pavel Durov, the founder of Telegram, supports Elon Musk, who has been summoned by the French justice system: 

“Macron’s France is losing its legitimacy by turning criminal investigations into weapons to repress freedom of expression and privacy. The US Department of Justice refused to assist France in its investigation of Elon Musk, calling the case politically motivated….

b) Canada. The Montreal School Services Centre has dismissed nearly 150 support staff members who refused to comply with Quebec’s new secularism law. Among them are dozens of daycare educators, lunchtime supervisors, special education technicians, and attendants for students with disabilities who wear religious headscarves.

c) France. Lagny-sur-Marne (77): a public high school hosts a “youth branch” of Amnesty International which conducts pro-migrant and pro-veil propaganda there….

d) France. 73.8% of Les Républicains members voted in favor of Bruno Retailleau for the 2027 presidential election. This resounding victory is reminiscent of the May 2025 vote at the LR Congress, where 74.31% of votes went to Retailleau and the remainder to his rival, Laurent Wauquiez….

1. Going to open with ZeroHedge

… because it relates to the OoL post itself … I’ve read DAD’s opener, it’s coming up next.

Navy Secretary John Phelan Abruptly Departs Trump Admin With No Explanation, “Effective Immediately”

In a terse, one-paragraph statement released this afternoon, the Pentagon announced the immediate departure of Secretary of the Navy John C. Phelan, effective immediately.

Undersecretary of the Navy Hung Cao has been elevated to Acting Secretary of the Navy. The announcement, issued by Chief Pentagon Spokesman Sean Parnell (Assistant to the Secretary of War for Public Affairs), offered no explanation for the move and simply thanked Phelan for his service “on behalf of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and the Deputy.”
