3. Where did this money or even Newsom’s go?
Or into pollie pockets or squandered on madcap schemes.
2. Britannia Hotel, Canary Wharf
Sadbutmadlad, at X:
That a door is open doesn’t stop someone being charged with breaking and entering. It’s still entering with intent to commit burglary. 14yr prison sentence if the property is a home/dwelling/residence. https://legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1968/60/section/9
This was covered elsewhere as well:
1. DAD at 1131
a) The highly controversial La Peyratte wind power project has suffered its first setback. The measuring mast, installed in April 2025, was vandalised and destroyed….
b) France’s online anti-tax revolt rattles Macron’s Elysée … The “Nicolas picks up the tab” online campaign evokes uncomfortable memories of the Yellow Vests protests.
c) In the UK today, it’s sometimes safer to be the criminal than the victim of crime.
d) UK police forces will disclose the ethnicity and nationality of a suspect when it could reduce the risk of disorder, there are high levels of false information about an incident or there is significant public interest.
… just as things suddenly start hitting the inbox and other places. First is a message for Torquaymada in the sidebar. Second is an episode of Grifty which I was going to run for IYE but I looked through it, watching parts … it was a female on female hit, no doubt true but not great watching.
Fourth is from Toodles but everything in the email except the url has disappeared, is a blank. Yet I saw the one line lead in, so she certainly wrote it. Now, there are two main reasons not to go to that episode of that vlog. The first is what one viewer commented … 50 minutes it goes for and the girl just rambles on and on and on, almost never getting to the point. Personally, I can listen to a nice gal, honest, sweet, rambling for hours … not an issue for me … but I don’t expect anyone else to.
The far more important reason is that it’s messing with some very nasty occult doings. Interesting that both a line in the gospels, plus a male witch in Russia when I was there, warned me not to touch it. A pretty high grade warning I’d say. That’s where I also learnt about the Statue of Liberty being nothing of the kind … it’s a statue of a character in the occult starting Ish…
Right … so this thing turns on a woman coming into a pastor’s gambit in the States under an assumed name, totally out of her skull. Now the reason I don’t pooh-pooh this story is it has corroboration about the pastor himself but that’s still not conclusive in itself. Plus I saw similar in Russia, where they’re more at the mercy of the occult, with only Eloi like defences, poor sods. We’re getting that way too now.
Plus some of you will recall me referring to a tarot reader called Cypra whom I knew, visited, spent time with. A dark story indeed … she ended up ostensibly throwing herself off a balcony to the carpark below … it always seemed quite Nietspe or David Kelly to me or Sonny Bono. Plus the Latina girl I ran in a post item who called out the human eating monsters at a Washington party. Plus you could add Diddy and Bieber … plus all the weird things across the west … was that creep on the bus demonically possessed?
Ok, the point where I bought it was that the girl narrator was going on about rae rae. Almost every search result says bunkum … her name was quite different, there was only one daughter of this known fiend, surname LaVey. Ok … she had an instagram account … name rae rae. At this point, I jump off, jump clear, go to bed … have no truck with any of that, there’s only one defensive system and most have not availed themselves of it.
… it’s my venus flytrap … I think … it doesn’t seem to be feeding … rather they seem to be getting in at another window, going to the sill in another room where the vft is … and just dying on the sill. One was earlier today. Now what exactly is it killing them? Something exuded, harsh sun … me?
“”Count Five and Die” is a very good wartime espionage film. However, I’ll be honest, it starts off slowly and only gets interesting later in the movie. Fortunately, it ends quite well and is worth seeing.
In this film, an American (Jeffery Hunter) and Brit (Nigel Patrick) are in charge of a spy mission in which they are to deliberately misdirect the Germans by convincing them that the upcoming invasion of the continent will be in Holland. It all takes place in London and the key is their feeding the false information to Nazi agents in the city.
As I said before, this is a very slow film at the beginning. Fortunately, the picture improves and really becomes quite taut and intelligent towards the end. Not a great film like “The Man Who Never Was” (which covers much of the same material) but well worth your time…and patience.”
Elvis was discovered, and ruined, by an (alleged) illegal immigrant from Lithuania, which was one of the reasons why Elvis never performed outside the USA, Parker realising that if he accompanied Elvis abroad, he’d never be allowed back in.
As he matured, so did his voice, and it was felt that there wasn’t a song he couldn’t sing … “If I can Dream” from his comeback special, after discharge from his military service, is just one example:
What could Elvis have achieved under proper management?
Ernest Evans is said to have used the stage name of Chubby Checker as a play on words of Fats Domino. Sadly, his career seemed to revolve around that atrocious activity called The Twist, and it didn’t last, as did not those who failed to adapt to music tastes (I’m afraid I include Ricky Nelson in this).
Many British pop stars seemed to try to be clones of the early Elvis, and few survived very long, though Harry Webb seems to have done quite well.
I could go on, but would note everybody. Music tastes, like humour, is subjective after all.
a) For the past week, around 200 migrants have been camped outside of Paris’ Hôtel de Ville (City Hall) to protest against a supposed lack of proper accommodation.
b) [The] Macrons Secretly Hired Investigator To Dig Up Dirt On Candace Owens [following her series of videos that claimed ‘Brigette’ is a male].
c) Dozens of migrants land on Algarve beach loved by Brits… and are immediately taken before judge and ordered to leave the country, in stark contrast to soft-touch UK.
d) Danish wind farm constructor Ørsted has been left facing one of the most turbulent periods in its recent history, with its stock price having plunged to an all-time low.
3. The disappointing Danielle
First consider this:
Add to that how thoroughly disappointing eastern Canada has been in Trudeau, Carney and Poinlievre, all Uniparty baddies or controlled opposition, not unlike Yusuf Farage in the UK … and Danielle’s embracing of the east, as if they are remotely interested in Canada’s welfare:
Meanwhile:
Or how about:
Does Danielle have the Rottweiler streak necessary to take on eastern Canada? Does she have the stomach for it? Is she truly interested in acting, not bleating?

Our broadcasting auntie reports that Thames Valley police have terminated 39 officers and staff for se**al misconduct over the last few years. Others have been given written warnings and final written warnings. This quote from the article which I cannot link to gets my goat. “Another 23 were told to undergo reflective practice.” What the heck is that when it’s at home?
… or however you wish to put it … sleepwalking to oblivion … but even your humble correspondent is guilty of it. It’s 0300 or 3 a.m., our time, having just awoken, and what am I doing? Reposting pretty architecture, landscapes, embroidery, reposting memes such as this:
And what am I failing to do? Failing to adequately bring to your attention this kind of thing:
Jen’s a good lady but still at the stage of asking what’s going on, supporting a party which will set things right … Reform under Yusuf and Farage … who are in thrall to the very terrorists who are hiding weaponry in their secret cathedrals and whose Smami have said more than once are coming door to door to demand you convert or be put to death. Yes … your own door. Who is coming to save you?
And JD Vance is due to talk to one of these ahead of the Alaskan summit. Not talking to Rupert … talking to soft on Yusuf Farage. Meanwhile:
… and this:

… and this:
Yes, it’s all over the west, innit? Coordinated, innit? By whom? Meanwhile, in the cradle of civilisation, on the front line so to speak … in Greece:
Was Jen or anyone else who was educated in the west after 1960 taught about the conquest of the Iberian peninsula? How about the corsairs and other Milsum terror boats attacking towns along the coasts of countries not yet but soon to become “the west”, once Christianity got a foothold?
Slaughtering men and enslaving women and girls for their pleasure back home in Arab lands … have you ever studied those raids? Why not? Oh, because the Wokeleft teachers never taught it in the west? Why not? Could it be that they were teaching this instead?
Meanwhile, I stay calm and keep posting on North York landscapes and on the first tube stations … or even drop in some humour. What I am failing to do is get everyone preparing defences, making escape plans, deciding precisely how they’ll meet the threat once it bursts through your front door.
The hills are bare now And Autumn leaves lie thick and still O’er land that is lost now Which those so dearly held
Uh huh … that could also apply to any of our lives “back then” in our yoof (not in the ’45) … better to leave it undisturbed? Or allow us to go back in the time machine?
Until this summer, there wasn’t really time to look back, except as part of the blogging, but this summer, some of us have gone on holiday, other things have happened … I found myself looking back … in fact, I looked up an exgf from decades ago … and there she was. Uh huh.
Today, I tried to pin down, not songs released at the time but songs staying on the mind. I mean there were hundreds released from, say, 1963 to 1966 but only a few have remained on the mind … a tumultuous time when I changed schools twice, not a stable time.
Though I know there were Chubby Checker, Dion, Del Shannon, other individual male singers … Elvis for some … though I was never into him … the male bands didn’t really register in the conscious of quite a few boys until the Beatles and Stones … and that was mainly 1964/5, with Satisfaction coming out in 66.
No, it was before then and the flurry of female artists who remain significant for me … Helen Shapiro, Leslie Gore, Little Millie, Little Eva, The Exciters … there were girl singers constantly in 63. Paul and Paula, April Stevens … Nino Tempo, Roy Orbison were some males I recall.
To my mind, something was certainly lost between 63 and 64, as I changed schools.
It also changed in my consciousness … Beatles, Stones, other bands … remember Thane Russell and Three? That was 66 onwards. Where were the girls then? Melanie was the only one I remember from the time … the Ruby Tuesday cover came in 67, outside the range of this post item.
Before 1963? Purple People Eater and Running Bear were never my music, too early … The Shadows were in 1962, no singing bands I remember. Dion, Ricky Nelson yes. Eddy Cochrane not really … way before my time.
Going to sign off with a song from 1963 … now which one? 🤔
One of the criticisms of Simenon, the books, the films, is that they’re too gritty, too dwelling on human misery, on rotten family relations … maybe so … in this better than average episode, Maigret sympathises with the crim, whilst the ones not caught have nothing happen to them … though karma will eventually catch up. Supposedly.
