I see all kinds of people claiming that some great tragedy has occurred. Even Andrew Neil. I’m laughing.
Says it all. The so-called anti-Covid “vaccines” are toxic. Take them at your peril.
Why has that building not been obliterated by rocket attack?
Such swaps are a very good thing from the humanitarian point of view.

[“МОСКВА, 19 августа. /ТАСС/. Национальное антикоррупционное бюро Украины (НАБУ) и Специализированная антикоррупционная прокуратура (САП) проводят спецоперацию против преступной группировки во главе с бывшим и действующим депутатами Верховной рады, в состав которой входят сотрудники офиса Владимира Зеленского.”]
The “SAPO” mentioned there is not the Swedish equivalent of Britain’s MI5; it is the specialist anti-corruption prosecution office in Ukraine (which must be busy indeed if it is doing its job…). “NABU” is the general anti-corruption agency in Ukraine (ditto…).
[“Russia is inflicting hundreds of millions of dollars in damage on Ukraine through strikes targeting logistics and businesses, according to The Economist.
For example, according to Dmitry Krymsky, co-owner of the Goodwine chain, Russian strikes have caused approximately $500 million in damage to Ukrainian businesses in just three weeks.
Warehouses, logistics hubs, “Nova Poshta” (a Ukrainian postal service), and now cargo ships in the Black Sea have been targeted.
The ports of Odesa have been particularly affected: after Russia intensified its attacks on shipping, the ports have become “commercially dead,” as The Economist reports.
Another problem is the export of crops. This year, Ukraine needs to sell approximately 50 million tons of grain. If this is not possible, farmers may refuse to plant in the fall, and the potential losses for the industry are estimated at $10-12 billion – about 5% of the country’s GDP.
At the same time, the attacks on logistics are only a prelude to more significant problems: Russia is increasing the production of ballistic missiles, while Ukraine’s air defense capabilities are dwindling.”]
Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose this war.
“Engineering and design startups in China are continuing to modify and improve the capabilities of key humanoid robots of the present day.
For example, Symbiosis Robotics has combined a DPC (Dynamic Path Control) control model with a system that uses images from cameras, body position data, and feedback from movements. They have taught the Unitree G1 robot to independently control a go-kart on a track, including steering, using the pedals, and performing controlled drifts on turns.“]
Looks like the long-predicted revolution of the robots (first mooted in the 1920s) is here, or almost here. The AI revolution at the same time. The future is now racing towards us, but what kind of future?
[“Since August 15th, the largest statue of the Virgin Mary in Europe has been located in the Polish village of Konotop.
The 55.6-meter-high structure, installed on a crown-shaped pedestal with a panoramic viewing platform, has been consecrated, and the village’s population of approximately 150 people now hopes for an influx of pilgrims and tourists.“]
Merz is a silly little twerp.
[“Britain has supplied Ukraine with drones with a range of 1,000 km; Lavrov: This is direct participation in the war against Russia.
LAVROV: I WILL BE SORRY FOR BRITAIN IF IT REMAINS WITH UKRAINE UNTIL THE END.
The Sunday Times: Ukrainian armed forces have been using British drones to strike deep into Russian territory for six months. Among them is the Nyan, a jet drone from the British military company BAE Systems.
Russian military expert Rustem KKLUPOV: The Nyan has a range of 230 km and a wingspan of 2.9 meters. It can fly at a speed of 440-500 kilometers and can carry 30 kg of explosives.“]
Britain must stop supplying the Kiev regime with arms, ammunition, and money.
Britain should leave NATO, cultivate better relations with Russia, and take a different path generally.
In return, Britain will get cost-price oil and gas, avoid the possibility of a terrible and probably nuclear war with Russia, and will get a guaranteed market for British goods and services in Russia.
Ha ha. That’s that Jolyon Maugham character, a half-Jew barrister who once practised in revenue law, though he now seems to focus entirely on “woke” political and social causes. His track record with his Good Law Project is, however, poor, to put it at most diplomatic.
Anyone who saw his preening, self-satisfied, yet totally ignorant performances a couple of times on the “alumni” Christmas University Challenge a year or two ago will not be much inclined to listen to his words of “wisdom”, I think…
(and that is before one even considers his appalling behaviour when he battered a fox to death and then boasted online about it).

[“In a few weeks, the national populist Alternative for Germany will send shockwaves through Europe by taking power at state elections
It will be a seismic, historic moment for Europe. The ‘firewall’ blocking the AfD will collapse. Europe’s populist wave will reach entirely new heights. EU bureaucrats will likely have a meltdown. There will probably be a renewed push to try and ban the AfD. Why is it happening? The legacy media will once again tell you the AfD are Nazis & extremists. But this is nonsense.
What they won’t tell you is what the political, media, and cultural class has done to Germany. -> Nearly 16 million foreign nationals arrived in the last 10 years alone. -> Some 6.5 million migrants were added to Germany’s population, net, in just a decade. -> The number of people with a migrant background soared from 13 million in 2005 to 21 million today. -> More than one in three 35-year-olds in Germany, 36%, now have a migrant background.
Islamism has also gone mainstream. There were nearly 20 terror attacks over the last decade and at least 10 major attacks thwarted since 2023 alone. ->The total number of Islamist crimes has surged from 134 in 2022 to nearly 1,000 last year -> There are now 28,000 Islamists living in Germany, according to official data/The Times.
Ordinary Germans do not have to live like this. They never asked for demographic change on this scale. And if you ask AfD voters what they think is the top issue facing their country, 82% say immigration.
If you don’t want the AfD winning state elections and leading the NATIONAL polls then end the policy of mass immigration, control the borders, and root out Islamism.”]
I agree in part, but naturally Goodwin does not mention that the migration invasion of Germany (and the rest of Europe, including the UK) has been mainly facilitated by Jewish and Israeli interests and individuals. The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.
Goodwin says that the AfD are not “Nazis or extremists“. True, but if they were, so much the better!
Deutschland erwache!
Anyway, the problem is not so much “Islamism”, but the typical social and sexual behaviour of so many of the migrant invaders.

Yet the lady tweeter fully “supports” (though born only in 1967) the disastrous Churchill-led war against the German Reich 1939-1945, and she is now pushing, like so many others in and around the polluted UK political swamp, for war with Russia. I wonder how many “boys” and indeed citizens generally, here in the UK will die if that happens? Millions, probably; tens of millions, quite possibly.
I agree with that lady on Tim Montgomerie. The ridiculous fuck-up has been a negative influence on British politics for years, about 20+ years, yet has never been elected to anything, but has just set up fake think tanks (who, or what cabal, put up the money?) and websites (Conservative Home; again, from where came the money?).
He seems to be well-connected, and is always on TV despite having nothing to offer beyond his personal whining and a little party-political gossip.
Montgomerie is somewhere between pathetic and sinister.
Another lying, cheating, freeloading and moneygrubbing MP hypocrite, as well as being a vaping, tattooed, “club”-going chavscum woman. The Westminster monkeyhouse just gets worse.
In Rayner’s case, she has been caught out several times now.
Angela Rayner is now, once again, in the Cabinet, despite her moneygrubbing and freeloading, and despite her complete ignorance.
Again, though, the wider picture is that idiots like Angela Rayner are far more likely to be selected (by the System parties) as candidates for elected office than people such as me. That is just ludicrously wrong. In fact, senseless.
The whole political system in this country is rotten to the core. Cases such as that of Angela Rayner are merely symptoms of a terminal disease.
