12. Privacy

I’ve two mobiles, two ipads, one active laptop and some resting ones. On the mobile phones are address books … anyone not on that list does not get through. The govt can get through whenever they wish and they do so, often, as I have a good personal relationship there but a different one on Starmer and Co. My utilities can also text and I call back.

The X and Gab accounts are not closed but there are maybe three dozen blocked. They’re happy venues for me, X and Gab, as the riff-raff gets blocked and only the good remain. As for nourishing unherdables, as I’ve come to call it … regulars know that readers can always become regular and are welcome and protected under our umbrella but Woke nutterati are not … so don’t bother.

Juan asks where to leave comments? Wherever he likes. The very fact it’s up means he’s persona-grata to start with. And that’s how things run around here.

Last from me on privacy is to ask … why do people answer their phones or click on net invitations? Anything I’m invited to click on, I don’t, never ever, even if I may have been interested … there’s this thing, you see, called “they see you coming”. My phones are currently off, recharging.

9. TPA weekly thingy

“With the budget less than three weeks away, Westminster is awash with speculation of what might be included. Having abandoned the widow’s tax for now, and bound by their election pledge not to hike taxes on workers, specifically income tax, national insurance, or VAT, the chancellor is scrambling around to find ways to pay for her spending plans. 

The thing about national insurance though is the two elements: employee and employer contributions. We’re all very familiar with employee national insurance – I certainly grumble each time I see it on my payslip – but people often don’t think about the employer contributions. For every employee on the books, a percentage of their salary is paid by the company to the treasury.

So naturally, when the topic came up at Prime Minister’s Questions this week, our ears pricked up. Leader of the opposition, Rishi Sunak, asked Keir Starmer whether he would rule out hiking employer contributions at the budget. When he failed to do so, alarm bells were ringing in the TPA office. In a flash, John O’Connell, our chief executive, made it absolutely clear what Starmer should do: “The prime minister should stop searching for a cheap way out of his manifesto promise and rule out this rise for good.”

Why does this matter? Well, employer’s national insurance contributions are, quite simply, a tax on jobs. Every time a company hires someone, they have to factor in this cost. Everytime they want to give someone a pay rise, they have to factor in this cost. Higher employer contributions mean lower wages and fewer jobs. In the same way tobacco taxes are meant to put people off smoking, job taxes like this put businesses off hiring people.

Speaking of the national debt, a core part of our mission is to make sure politicians and taxpayers alike are informed about the issues, which is why we’ve published our latest factbook, The Indebted Kingdom. A compact, easy to understand explainer of the national debt and the interest we’re paying, this factbook provides all the information you need to hold those who spend your money to account. Download your copy here. “

8. At some stage, even Belinda must wake up

… but how? This island has already fallen to the enemy abroad at the ruling level and in every key position down through society, whilst those understanding that that has happened, that there’s an alien army of fighting males awaiting the word from above, still don’t all realise the full implications:

• This is a murderous army, nothing whatever like what sheltered Brits and Americans since Boomers have enjoyed … intellectually, maybe, until the texts were rewritten by the locust army … but truly, not being insulting or anything but the sudden rush of collapse is going to take most by surprise.
• The ruling class are satanic, no other word for it, mystic, placing great store by numbers … IYE has already posted on it many times, plus symbolism:

• As I myself have said many times … while it’s important whether there even is such a thing as satanic or not … that’s nowhere near as important in the immediate, the short term, than the simple truth that Them believe in it devotedly … and there’s the rub. This Net Zero thing, for example, is only partly climate … it’s mainly demonic destruction … the ultimate goal STILL not understood by the unread, the determinedly secular (man is his own god) and those doing the three wise monkey thing.
• Them will crash things when they feel they’re ready.

Oh … Belinda?

Belinda, within and controlling the Tories are the very people part of the Troubles, fomenting them. Stirring up Europe as well. Some of these monsters are right here beside us. They care about “country”?

 

(1023) Morning all … just awoke and got up after a second sleep, after post Sun 1 to 5. We all have different expectations of Sunday … many check around the sites to see what news there is … some of us reporting the news simply need to snooze … the fake MSM have it over us that way. Back in harness for awhile, there’ll be a filum break in the afternoon (to snooze, to snooze again). (1219)

 

7. Teach your children well

To my mind, Nolla Girl below is half right … insofaras females today are pressured from childhood to be THOTs and also to become harpies, in other words, useless humans with no code beyond “me me me” … and they in turn mother children, sacrificing their children on the altar of feminazism … whilst this first half might be right:

… and there are countless youtubes on it … also reflected in this quote:

… she also touches on the issue of the male, now long feminazised into the SNAG (sensitive new age guy) … the type so in touch with his feelings, a demi-woman, this anti-toxic-masculine shaped by new-women into “safe” partners … in other words … absolutely bloody useless for forming and protecting family plus the code itself which they should live by.

And not only are they low testosterone and useless in a protective role, a procreative role … they also become vicious little bstds with mincing voices … you see them in Walz, at protest demonstrations, hitting women with bicycle chains … hardly Crocodile Dundee or Bear Grylls but those are just the outward trappings … many older conservative types, men plus women, are not necessarily speaking of that but more of moral courage … the courage to do what’s needed and to see it through. The type his children can look up to.

Now, unless Gen Z and Alpha turn it around … and there are some signs that some are … then western society is doomed. Because there are invaders already flooding in … murderous bstds, the emptied jails of the world … and they will go through today’s western males like knives through butter.

But first, the males of the post-Woke world need to reject the garbage taught in schools, resist the invaders and stand up for what’s right … and Wokery is anything but right. Plus dipping into easily available THOTs, siring random brats who grow up worse.

Will the man with the old code rediscovered be vilified? Set upon? Of course … good thing too … it’s called doing right.

And not like the Pink Floyd teacher in The Wall nor the Starmer, a similar type who thinks discipline is beating someone with a big stick. Task is … how to make men into proper men again? Especially with those of the old ways dying off, helped across that river by murderous govts and medicos.

6. Kathy has sent out her Sunday wisdom

… here’s a bit of it:

Ray Lewis (the late leader of Eastside Young Leaders Academy, who I wrote about here) was right when he warned years ago how adults had handed over their power to children. Parents have certainly been encouraged to relinquish responsibility for them.

Laura flagged up the issue that no else addresses last week. How many dead children do we have and will we have in return for adult sexual liberation? No one is counting. And is anyone counting how many dead or damaged children we get in return for a ‘mother’s right to work’ (on the heedless assumption that outsourcing your baby for ten hours a day to a nursery ‘baby room’ is safe or kind)? People really need to start thinking about this. It is not unconnected with today’s stabbing culture.

No wonder my ears pricked up when I read Kemi Badenoch’s glib solution this week to couples unable to afford children. Cheaper child care. By deregulating it. More Tiny Toes nurseries, then?

I’m glad it’s a woman writing that as, coming from me, it would carry far less weight. Do I hide behind the skirts of women on women’s matters? You can bet I do … unless I need to add something the women are missing … the conservative women usually have it covered.

Well all right, I shall add something … McMartin preschool case in the 80s in the States … which set off a whole chain of CIA rendition, Omaha Airforce base, San Diego, trauma abuse of people, inc. children … you know the rest. Gary Webb. And over this way … Channel Islands care orphanages, Dolphin Square, summer holiday … it’s an epidemic. Nuff for now.

14. Mixed signals beyond

(1506) Still reserving judgment on much of this but there are some very strange things going up. I took a dive into Badlands and the name most prominent was John Herold … which was the least opaque name there. Went to X, found his a/c and he’s pro-Harris Democrat. As well as his own posts, he retweets other Trump hating Demrats as well.

Just because much about DJT might be true, it certainly doesn’t excuse Biden or Harris and it certainly doesn’t forgive Obama and Holder for Fast and Furious.

The other pundits such as Burning Bright and Just Human are opaque … is one of them John Herold? Can’t see how, as Burning Bright has:

The meat of Trump’s proposed plan relies on placing tariffs on foreign goods and drastically reducing taxes on domestic production.

Here’s the thing getting lost in the noise: Trump is going to REWARD FOREIGN MANUFACTURERS for making foreign goods IN AMERICA. This brilliant bit of game theory is global in scale, and means foreign brands are literally going to be competing to hire American workers and build American manufacturing infrastructure.

He’s also going to force them to use American materials, such as American steel. It’s an infinite economic feedback loop. Foreign countries are going to fund the American Restoration. Almost like it was planned this way.

Excuse me but is that a bad thing? Explain that to me. Moving onto DAD and Ezra Levant, what’s with the apologetic “I’m not a religious Jew” thing and then he proceeds to do a heavily pro-Jewish mini-speech? As I wrote above, this is not a zero-sum game and as you get Talmudish and Kabbahlistic, that is very anti-Christian … so what gives? The thing we’re all agreed on though is once invite in the Ottomans and your society is dead … Ezra was not wrong on that bit.

I’m not taking any of it down because it’s your decision in the end … but it sure is confused and all over the place. Where am I, personally? For British workers in Britain, US workers in the USA, French workers across the ditch etc. etc.

10. It’s not just this snippet or that

… but three or four combined which convey the issue, esp. if from both sides of the pond or ditch:

9. We see things in passing, don’t we

… need to record them, need somewhere to put them so others can see. Well here’s a snippet from Laura Dodsworth:

Last week, I found myself in a perfectly ordinary pub, trying to kill half an hour before a meeting and quench my thirst. I nearly choked when the barmaid told me my diet cola would cost £4.60. I could have purchased eight cans at Asda for less than that. But alas, there I was, in the gilded streets of Belgravia, not a budget-friendly supermarket.

I calculated that each sip was setting me back 23 pence. That’s reasonable for liquid gold or unicorn tears, but not cola. I glowered. It’s hard to enjoy your drink under such circumstances.

Ties in of course with the Cityunslicker post at OoL and in my own food buying … though I don’t often look for bargains because I eat so little, preferring to have some quality while I still can … nevertheless, I’ve noticed two things on top of the prices …

One is the sloppiness in choosing and packing at the other end, together with the poor IT involved, which we’re paying money for, along with the lower quality of even premium items, stuffed with additives, even on staples, e.g. milk.

The other is that the lines of products, the ranges, are steadily reducing. For a major supermarket not to stock 500ml or pints is pretty poor, running out of full cream is too … just basic things are not there. And not as a one off or out of season either … this is increasing.

Now what’s happening? Supply lines? Why? Just Euro-Brit road and boat issues? Or govt agency? Madness over 500ml causing global warming or excess carbon? Too much plastic?

And just on semi-skimmed which people warn us not to buy … I added it to the cup last evening (the new lot) and it was diluted … not just semi-skimmed but watered down … so you thought, on the shelves presumably, that you were getting more for less. Actually, we’re getting less for the same cost, thereabouts. Grrrrrrrr.

A very peculiar harvest … Isilme’s harvest report Friday evening

Yesterday I started to gather the runner beans. They’d been neglected whilst we had all the visitors and I knew most of them would be too tough to eat, so I really gathered them to get the actual beans out.

I didn’t quite realise how many beans we had. A handful of them are still okay to cook and we ate some last night with our chicken in white wine sauce.

In the end, I collected a large washing-up bowl full of beans – and haven’t even touched those in the front garden (which are only a few, actually, so it won’t make much difference). We’ll watch a film tonight and I’ll de-pod the beans instead of knitting socks.

As we had a frost last night, I thought it best to bring in all the tomatoes today. Sadly, most of them are still green. However, from past experience I know some of them will ripen. I will likely bottle those if we don’t eat them first – it depends on how many ripen at a time! If I do end up with a lot of green ones, I shall have to find something to do with them.

I made green tomato chutney one year. I still have some of it hanging around. I wasn’t that keen on it to be honest. I have heard of fried green tomatoes (there was a film of that title….) but I’m thinking that the bigger ones will ripen okay and the cherry ones probably won’t. Green tomato fritters? I’ll have to try something….

(I have sent a photo of all the tomatoes. That’s my Beloved’s brewing bucket in the background. I think there’s cider in there. Well, it will be cider eventually. However, since we’re not great cider drinkers, he will most likely turn it into cider vinegar. Good stuff!)

As I was going around the garden, I noticed the strawberries were still going strong. The pink-flowering strawberries are blooming again. And I noticed a strawberry plant in amongst the thyme (don’t know how it got there) that has produced strawberries, but they might not ripen.

I spotted a ripe one in one of the other pots. Sadly, the woodlice found it first and although it looked good at first, underneath it was eaten away. Sob! That was MY strawberry!

The flowers in our chimney are still looking good, and the pots in the driveway are colourful, but most of the other flowers are gone. Apart from the marigolds and, weirdly, the nasturtiums which have flowered all over again. You can eat nasturtiums…

We still have apples to bring in and will maybe do that next week. That is, if the jackdaws leave us any. They’re currently fighting over the Bramleys. But they can’t settle on the eating apple tree as it’s too difficult for them and all the branches are bent over due to the number of apples. It’s a pippin of some kind (not Cox’s) and the apples are gorgeous.

The raspberries are still bearing fruit, but they are usually fruiting until November anyway. But it’s odd about the strawberries. And all those tomatoes that have taken so long to develop! It’s crazy!

(0709) Overslept, hope you did too. (0743)

 

7. More stricture … but not for them

By the way … why the Dr. and PhD in the moniker? Should I list my various qualifications too or stand on what I find? Does it endow gravitas? Just asking. The topic itself … well yes … one rule for them again … Swift’s airmiles whilst preaching carbon reduction.

6. One more on North Carolina

Nefarious conglomerates are one thing … always up to something nefarious in the public eye but this is curious as it fits the new global strategy of not even trying to hide it anymore … Gates’s snapping up 200 media companies to add to his farmland is another. I mean it’s not even mildly difficult now for sharp-eyed pundits to find, is it?

5. This is far from spurious

… though to nitpick over such a “trivial” matter does seem spurious indeed at first sight:

Were it not for my struggling with the last few tonic and lemon water buys, the last struggle immediately before reading Bob’s Xtweet … and were it not for reading something about someone “left-official” deciding that separated bottles and tops were anti Net Zero … plus in the context of all the other annoying, niggling, small additions, insertions in the minutiae of everyday life (Pharoah, Israelites, bricks, straw) …

… were it not for all of those and for the vow by someone up there to make human lives now abject misery, e.g. in the composing of blogposts today for pundits afflicted by “blocks” … then I may well have smiled at Bob’s sense of humour.

But to my mind, there’s nothing humorous about it at all, at this stage of the western journey. And once again, Them can laugh it away as tinfoil hat, even incompetence, when in fact it’s some tosser’s little way of scoring brownie points from his bosses.

Tell you why, in practical terms, unless you’ve already found out for yourself … if you twist the top off, the bit of plastic ring remaining is jagged and piercing, not just a harmlessly smooth plastic ring … even using scissors or blade does not fix it … plus it’s far harder to put the lid back on.

Plus there is that other universal decision about no more plastic lids for, say, tubs of creme fraiche … there’s a peel off tin film instead and then it requires cling film or some such to seal.

(0206) First break, more sleep later hopefully. (0705)

a) [Has the new French Minister of the Interior spoken the unspeakable?] True to the political line he has long defended, in the Senate, the Minister of the Interior, Bruno Retailleau, put on the table, during his speech to the [Department] Prefects on October 8, a proposal that directly targets “political Islam.”

b) Communist senators Ian Brossat and Pierre Ouzoulias are calling on the French government to put a stop to what they describe as “fundamentalist” Christian protests following a [completely peaceful] street prayer organised by Catholics in Paris to “atone for the blasphemy” of the Olympic Games opening ceremony.
