At the start of last week, I was thinking my regular Remembrance season thoughts – Are people wearing poppies earlier every year? – and by the middle of the week, I’d agreed to have a quick morning argument about poppies on the radio. David Lammy had been caught in parliament without one, and roundly castigated. He had responded with sentiments to the effect that Remembrance Sunday was the most important day of the year; nobody found it more important than him; anyone who didn’t think it was important was not a patriot; and by sheer hideous happenstance, he had a new suit, and his poppy was on the other suit.
Yes, that sound like the sort of hopelessly incompetent bluster one can expect when David Lamentable has been caught out again...
Some of us were thus called on to adjudicate on remembrance, while the more agile wing of the commentariat was wondering how Lammy could afford a new suit.
Anyway, my line hasn’t changed on this for at least 25 years. Wear a poppy, don’t wear a poppy, both are legitimate positions. Honouring the fallen is worthwhile. Finding all that performative honour a bit militaristic, and declining to have your love of country elided with celebration of war, even in a tinged-with-sorrow way, also worthwhile. You do you.
Anyway, Sunday came, I was bombing along the Thames on my bike, and I couldn’t figure out why I wasn’t allowed to cycle round Parliament Square, nor why all the crash barriers were down across Westminster Bridge. It wasn’t until I noticed a large number of people wearing medals that I clocked it; I’d spent so long arguing about poppies that I’d forgotten it was Remembrance Sunday.
Ladies and gentleman, the Left! So in touch with Britain!
My consciousness of the out-and-out lying to us was from Cameron and successors ignoring the clear vote for Brexit but then something else sprang to mind ... it was Jack Straw saying he hated the English. Wish I'd kept the clipping, from 2010.
From that date on, I decided to trust none of em but not just the pollies, WEF, letter agencies et all ... but also pundits, hence the earlier post, and for those reasons. Now, in 2025, it's pretty much my job not to initially trust but only after a friend is proven to be so.
Thus, when these two Xposts came up, my first instinct was to say, "AI?" or, "Who's to say that's only third world savages?" Here's the first:
Now don't get me wrong ... I want the savages out of the country as much as anyone ... just wondering if anything as blatant as this has actually been done? I'm thinking no ... so who put out the picture? Who took it, who AIed it? This Matt Casey? Wasn't Helen, I know her, she's just an English curmudgeonette.
Were it indeed so, then we're talking council, aren't we? Not even Antifa this time, nor rainbow haired, nose ringed young karens. All right, here's the second:
We need to know about this Connor first, his bkgd, plus Landeur's. Not saying it's not so, not at all. What if it was council though or wokerati flotsam or even some of our own lot doing a false flag? What if it was the deep state paying for it to be done so that the savages can be blamed?
Why? Well look at the agenda ... above all else, they want the slaughter to start. The deep state considers civil war is well overdue ... karens versus unvaxxed, wokerati versus the sane, doesn't matter who the combatants are ... they want slaughter.
Interesting that no one ever takes out the instigators themselves.
We have a watch list accessible from the navbar at Unherdables and it’s not the usual Obama, Blair etc. known-knowns … but the players behind the scenes in the current punditry, the ones who go under the radar because they’re the Paul Reveres they’d have you believe.
There are any number of people, often under reinvented moniker, who “rush” “breaking news” to you … they’re never there to examine in depth and to learn … watch out for these is my advice, just who are they? Whom are they representing in reality? Which lobby?
Part of the sum total of non-Wokerati pundits are the “would be big stars of punditry”, often with their own big followings and own site, e.g. Guido, but also a new breed, often found on substack for some reason, e.g. Dan Wooton. As one who uses substack himself, it has severe limitations … it’s for the pundit who wishes to bring the scoop or column in simple form, centre page, to be a “highly respected oracle, a go-to quotee” … these are the minor media empire builders.
What I’m asking you the reader to do is to be a bit more circumspect, a bit “uh huh, I’ll read you but what are your own antecedents, whom are you shilling for?” Before taking onboard and parroting. Beware those who are always wanting to bring the big scoop, the “Breaking News”.
I didn’t say dismiss … I’m saying place it alongside, on the table before you, with all the other “incoming”.
Slow down, examine, even against your own bias, your own natural inclinations. Sometimes a labelled “hostile” who may well be that due to his/her bad decisions on who’s good/who’s bad may have been diverted offtrack on some things. To my mind, blind faith in Donny is just as dangerous as TDS … slow down, examine via “trusted” sources you’ve built over time. Just whom are they lobbying for?
An obvious “be careful” is Ben Shapiro who may or may not have had a hand in the CK demise but is a known Nethanyahu European Zion exponent. Against that are almost the entirety of Whitehall, quite pro-deathcult and flooded-in illegals. Candace is another … I’ve read the criticisms, usually Zionist, which does not necessarily mean Jewish, which is another thing (see Revelation 3:9).
Beware those who immediately turn on you for quoting from the NT … what are they themselves? The secular Settled Science is god set? Again, be circumspect instead of grabbing your bat and ball and storming off.
Currently, I’m looking at this about Susan Wiles, gatekeeper to Donny, also exploring Ann Vandersteel:
…who seems more ultranationalist in a Stew Peters way, similar to Red Ice. I’m also posting this:
The links you need for that are currently at NOWP 1203:3 (Evets 1). And anyway, how sound are Natural News? And how about Gateway Pundit? Again, don’t dismiss out of hand but be circumspect.
Which brings me to navigation and transparency. If you visit any site, you should go straight to the About, to who’s funding this guy/gal? If it’s hidden away somewhere under all the waffle, if he/she won’t state his/her bias … then be most circumspect, reader. Some, like Rhoda at Expose, are basically sound, just derivative … as I am … name me a pundit who is not derivative … that’s quite different to carving out an empire on the back of other people’s resources and investigation.
Flag is often an indicator … my flag is the Cross of St George but also the Union Flag, but am also MAGA, pro-Orban, secret liking for Giorgia, I like people who use ✝️ in the profile but beware again … so does the socialist Chicago pope and the Canterbury graffiti loving new archbish to be, the rainbow ratbag. And the jargon “ratbag” is a giveaway too, it says Oz influence … I could have said “tosser” instead for her, or for Blair, Brown, Mandelson, Obama, Holder, McCarthy (ex House Speaker). Could have used “jerk”.
Then we should note strange likings, e.g. mine for Annunziata Rees-Mogg, Rupert, not Farage. But even here, apply the 70/30 rule. For every person we have misgivings about … do we like less than 70% of what they’re about? If we like 70 to 90% about them, then they’re on the “fairly trusted” list. I’d worry if you were 100% for any human.
Now there’s a girl who’s comfortable in her own skin,” my father-in-law said about my daughter, his granddaughter. She was about one year old and we were watching her bounce happily in her high chair, egg smeared across both cheeks as she shoved pieces of fritter into her mouth.
I realised with pride it was true: she was comfortable. My pride was followed quickly by unease. How long had it been since I could say I was comfortable with myself?
Well, you’re writing in the ‘Guardian’ so probably ‘never’!
My daughter is almost four now and I’ve thought of my father-in-law’s words many times since that day. She’s at a precious age, no longer a toddler and still just on the precipice of childhood proper. She interacts with the world without self-consciousness and has not yet learned that society may expect something different from her.
When she expresses hunger and when she eats, she does so with joyful abandon. When she takes a mouthful of something delicious we can see a whole-body response: she closes her eyes, tilts her head back and dances her shoulders up and down.
Because she’s a child and so lacks inhibition - part of growing up is of course learning social inhibition, which so many adults these days appear to lack.
Many girls will learn, if not explicitly taught then by cultural osmosis, the notion they shouldn’t be outwardly hungry. Whether a girl’s hunger is literally for food or it’s yearning for something greater in her life – a high-powered career, an unabashed artistic practice, a passionate affair – she is often taught to not be so honest in her expression of it.
*sighd*
Watching my daughter’s strong sense of self has forced me to reflect on my own adolescence through the early 2000s, when our wildly misogynistic pop culture filtered down to the schoolyard. I once overheard a high-school boyfriend say I looked ugly when I ate. Instead of dumping him, I simply stopped eating when we were together.

Later, in my 20s, when Instagram brought with it the first wave of diet culture masquerading as “wellness”, I was primed to try it all: juice cleanses, appetite-suppressing teas, “quitting” sugar. I once lied to a colleague that I was eating soup for lunch when I had, in fact, poured green juice into a bowl.
Women trying to make it in work do stupid things pt 732489...
These memories are horrifying to me now and thank God for that. Thank God that in my daughter’s world there is no morality ascribed to food, there is no good or bad, or that most disgusting of office kitchen diet-speak, naughty. There is just desire and pleasure and satiety.
It might be a little trite to say that adults can learn from watching children interact with the world...
Sheffield Hallam University staff in China were threatened by individuals described by them as being from China's National Security Service who demanded the research being done in Sheffield be halted.
And access to the university's websites from China was blocked, impeding its ability to recruit Chinese students, in a campaign of threats and intimidation lasting more than two years.
In an internal email from July 2024, university officials said "attempting to retain the business in China and publication of the research are now untenable bedfellows".
What's the Mandarin for 'We surrender, please don't hurt our future funding'?
When the UK government learned of the case, the then Foreign Secretary David Lammy issued a warning to his Chinese counterpart that it would not tolerate attempts to suppress academic freedoms at UK universities, the BBC understands.
Arguing, perhaps, that this was the purview of the UK government, and China should wait its turn?
China was seeking to halt research by Laura Murphy, professor of human rights and contemporary slavery at Sheffield Hallam, into allegations Uyghur Muslims in the north-western region of Xinjiang were subject to forced labour.
Ah, Laura, you should have been researching grounds for reparations for slavery in the US instead, the university would have stood up for you then.
In late 2024, following pressure from the Chinese state and a separate defamation law suit against the university, Sheffield Hallam decided not to publish a final piece of research by Prof Murphy and her team into forced labour.
And in early 2025, university administrators told her that she could "not continue with her research into supply chains and forced labour in China".
Cowards. So much for intellectual rigour, but then, modern universities are no longer about that anymore, as a perusal of David Thomson’s blog will show.
The documents she obtained showed the university "had negotiated directly with a foreign intelligence service to trade my academic freedom for access to the Chinese student market," she told the BBC.
She added: "I'd never seen anything quite so patently explicit about the extent to which a university would go to ensure that they have Chinese student income."
She seems surprised by that.
Sheffield Hallam has now apologised to Prof Murphy and said she can resume her work.
A spokesperson said "the university's decision to not continue with Professor Laura Murphy's research was taken based on our understanding of a complex set of circumstances at the time, including being unable to secure the necessary professional indemnity insurance".
This is the first of two posts from me today, the second being at 10:30 a.m. on Armistice Day Remembrance. The two, to my mind, are not unrelated.
And so to this highly dangerous topic ... anyone remember Charlie Hebdo? Tina Peters? Lucy Connolly? Allison Pearson? This post puts Lord Toby's view but of course, it's highly Libertarian, at odds with the reality, as seen by the cult itself, growing every day, as seen by the WEF and UN controllers of all western institutions, inc. the UK "govt" who direct that maximum prejudice be brought to bear on any westerner criticising the cult in any way.
Lord Toby of Acton, as head of The Free Speech Union, plus The Daily Sceptic, had a post up yesterday in emailed newsletter form and part of it read:
In a landmark Employment Tribunal case, a judge has ruled that criticism of Islam is protected under the Equality Act. The Sunday Telegraphhas more.
It is the first time a court has ruled that “Islam-critical” beliefs are protected under the Equality Act 2010. Previous claimants had been told such views were not “worthy of respect in a democracy”.
The decision follows a 2021 ruling that Maya Forstater’s gender-critical beliefs were protected under the same law.
Ms Forstater later won her discrimination claim and her case has reshaped public debate on gender ideology. Mr Lee, whose final hearing in February will decide whether his posts on X were an expression of his protected belief and whether the regulator discriminated against him, thinks his case could have a similar impact.
Now, is there anything else with a bearing on our ability to openly criticise in florid language about monsters and paedos? Well that depends if you're personally criticising as part of a public discussion, or if you are recording thoughts as a comment on someone's blog or vlog or whether you are the admin of a blog, a publisher, a platform owner or user, or an airspace provider, a device seller, e.g. Apple ... or any other link in the chain from you putting it until it being read by readers.
Lord Toby opines, protected, in parliament and in his online articles which offer him less protection ... yes go ahead, he says ... feel confident, emboldened by related cases. A legal opinion, still to be tested in court.
On the other hand, there is ample precedent to show that the UK govt, plus local plod, take an entirely different but immediate (for you) view on it ... with maximum prejudice.
How does Radio Genoa get away with it? He's not UK based, it was on X, which is the U.S. ... whereas we, now, are in the UK, with a UK provider, and under ggl blgr rules. Also, you did not have your 18 years of blogging summarily removed last year, you have not been temporarily banned. We have.
And whose door are they attempting to bash in? The easiest target, yes? Will they look for the brave Anon behind his anonymity when he calls for burning this, destroying that? Well you'd be surprised ... ggl blgr records IPs, even if the email is untraceable ... admins can't see them but ggl blgr can, plus (can) sell them on if it is their wont.
But to answer the question ... they're more likely to go for the blogger, vlogger or tweeter. Both Julia and I know that and we take the risks we each, separately, do. It's one thing supporting Remigration, it's quite another badmouthing the cult originator, drawing bombs on his head.
We're dealing with serious, murderous nutters here, either at high masonic temple level or at stormtrooper ground level, machete between the teeth, gleam in the eye ... or else some female plod trying to bash a western citizen's door down.
There are two ways around it at this stage ... use different words which people know mean something, e.g. calling a loose woman a 304. There is that. I use the word deathcult and avoid the M or I word afa possible.
There is also the method I ask you to employ ... by all means use Anon in comments but also include a moniker somewhere in there. You see, I have a particular understanding with ggl blgr in the light of last year's blog theft, and that's been an effective method so far.
Is it fear of multiplod, led by a little woman with no previous personal power, breaking the door down? It's far more the likelihood of the blog being stolen again and both perps banned from all blogging on the platform. In this, I'm attempting to protect my partner's own blog. Mine has a different set of obstacles, so that's another story.
The iniquity of it all? Oh quite ... quite agreed, in line with Lord Toby, a libertarian stance, ra ra ra. But we're also realists at the same time and as Capt. Ranty well knew ... it's one thing being in the right ... it's quite another the way the State interprets this right.
Do I hide in a dark cupboard, unseen by any baddies? Judge for yourself across all platforms and accounts. Do we look like we're hiding away? But there's still such a thing as keeping our powder dry in order to fight another day.
A British teenager - eight months pregnant and charged with drugs smuggling - is awaiting sentencing in prison in Georgia, South Caucasus. A payment of £137,000 by her family will reduce her sentence but what are the days like for Bella Culley, incarcerated 2,600 miles (4,180km) from home?
Who cares? Why the focus on this particular idiot drugs mule? There's plenty of them to choose from...
Lyanne Kennedy says her daughter has been boiling pasta in a kettle and toasting bread over a candle flame but is now allowed to cook for herself and other women and children in the unit, and is learning Georgian.
"She now gets two hours out for walking, she can use the communal kitchen, has a shower in her room and a proper toilet," she says, describing the improved conditions since a transfer earlier this month.
"They all cook for each other," Ms Kennedy says. "Bella has been making eggy bread and cheese toasties, and salt and pepper chicken."
Perhaps if she'd showed such skills in a job in her local cafe, she wouldn't have decided to smuggle drugs into a country that unlike the UK, doesn't ptovide holiday camps for the incarcerated felons it houses.
Miss Culley claimed she had been tortured and forced to carry the drugs but was warned she was facing 20 years in prison. But, for a "substantial sum", she could be released, she was told.
Back in Tbilisi City Court last Tuesday, the teenager heard her family had managed to raise £137,000. Not the amount needed for her to walk free but enough to reduce her sentence significantly, to two years. She is due in court again on Monday to hear her final sentence.
Ms Kennedy says the family is doing everything they can to get her home "where she should be".
And she's now been freed. Blood money is acceptable in such a country, clearly.
Ms Kennedy, who has been traveling back and forth between the UK and Georgia, says her daughter is getting on well with staff and prisoners and she had been able to take in baby clothes for her.
Her daughter's full story "will come in time", she says.
No doubt, once she's hired a ghostwriter. I assume the restriction on profiting from crime won't be applicable?
It's very much a threat to TPTB because it's so organic ... no knowing who's going to combine, what snippets or nuggets of truth are going to come through.
But TPTB have their own way to hit back ... controlling platforms, putting Woke lefties into the control room, e.g. as Elon seems unaware of ... more on that further down. Shadowbanning, as I am algorithmically suppressed at X. Julia's had her issues with Them as well, plus elsewhere ... an endearing feature of our resident wild animal.
For those who basically just do a bloground every so often, even daily, the extent of interconnection might surprise ... Rebekah Brooks was heavily connected but nefarious, we're interconnected too ... for right or wrong?
Where to start?
Both those chaps are longtime colleagues but it draws others in too who see it. This is typical of my timeline below ... Bobbie had run footage of three old cars from the early 60s:
Uh huh ... who? Bobbie's a regular Brit, checked out Kitty ... girl who loves her dog, awwwww. Texas girl. Went back minutes later, she'd been banned from X. Now ... was it on account of me or because of something else? Maybe even protective. And so it goes on ...
Checked out Sheri:
Uh huh ... obviously follow back ... news out of Florida now. Lopez Bretts? Checked, Latina, on hold there with her ... too much of the mammary. Sophia? Long time friend, Soph ... so easy to respond as she put up the perfect profile pic ... the nature of the female beast, so to speak. Soph once posted this:
Forever being banned, speaks her mind. Good gal, Soph. Ex NHS nurse, refused the jab. Harry Rag ... longtime friend, we collaborated over Meredith Kercher, we were on Team Meredith ... remember? The other side were the State, with Knox and the Italian son of a Berlusconi colleague ... nuff of all that now.
It's not all girls though ... though it might seem it:
SBML is one of our boys ... quite interested here in the new generations as well ... CV seems Gen X Millennial, Young Bob is 17. Now if we can spread the word on them ... apparently the deathcult and Antifa hate them ... well done, lads.
Through all this, the notion of "ragtag" I really like ... came from Lord of the Rings ... Gandalf, Viggo, Frodo, what a bunch ... v Sauron and minions. Allies, strange bedfellows, war of the world ... what's not to like?
