As noted previously on the blog, were the UK to leave NATO and take a “path less travelled”, Russia would supply us with cheap oil and gas, probably at cost price.

What goes around comes around..

As often said on the blog, neither side should be directly targeting civilians.

Quite.

Good grief. How well I remember attending the evening meetings at Windsor in the early 1970s, about 55 years ago, when I was still at school. I even remember the names of some of the horses; Dhofar was one.

American Jew pontificates about UK housing crisis. Seems that all we have to do is build on our beautiful Green Belt, and all the migrant-invaders, and all their prospective black, brown, or half-caste children will have housing, probably all built by (((speculative developers))).

Every. Single. Time.

The general or combined level of “national” political support (Reform, Restore, other smaller parties, and those still voting LibLabCon but unhappily or out of habit) probably exceeds 50% but is, as seen, split. Social-national sentiment is probably no more than 20%, even interpreting it generously, but that is mainly because there is no real and credible social-national party and leader known to the people as a whole.

What matters is ideological and actual discipline, without which nothing is ever possible.

Lifestyle vlog from rural Russia/Siberia

Interesting vlog from a young woman called Anastasia, who lives in Russia, in Siberia I think. I have featured her vlog once or twice before. She seems to have split from her boyfriend or husband (pity; they and their companion animals made a pleasant household), and is now renovating an old Russian village house.

Real Russian people, not the negative caricatures usually seen.

Might also be interesting to those in this country wanting to construct a house of that sort.
