Before you decide whether to take the vaccine or not: listen to Robert F Kennedy Jnr debate the pros, cons and legality with Alan Dershowitz – a long listen at over one hour. But Robert Kennedy is probably the world expert in the holistic approach to vaccination – and it will definitely challenge some of…
Even though it’s not talked about in the English Mainstream Media, people all around the world are noticing the repression of journalists in the UK, and the Stalinist torture by process of Julian Assange. Assange is facing extradition to the USA where he is likely to face solitary confinement for the rest of his life,…
15/08/2020 Can this be a English justice? The defendant is not legally under arrest, had not seen “new” charges (which were the same as the old ones), nor met with his defense team for 5 months, the prosecution did not turn up, journalists couldn’t [get access to the court], and proceedings were interrupted by screaming…
I recently saw Robert Stuart’s video, about the faking of video evidence of war crimes in a BBC Panorama documentary of chemical attacks in Syria in 2014. It seems a long time back, but we need to take note, because the UK is pursuing new wars (Iran, Yemen, Venezuela) in the name of humanitarian intervention.…
20 years ago, anybody who said the British Empire was a good thing, would have been ignored as a relic of the Imperial past. Of course, such rose-tinted romanticising ignores the genocide and repression needed to maintain the colonial system. Now, neo-conservative politicians openly call for revival of colonial empires. Gavin Williamson’s 2018 newspaper interview…
Boris Johnson says we shouldn’t “edit and censor” our past by changing our monuments. He is wrong – monuments are not, like statues in a museum, mementos of the past. They are a dynamic part of a living, evolving social culture. They need to be renewed. This story discusses what monuments mean in our society…
Ever wondered what’s going on in the world, behind the smokescreen of endless COVID19 scare stories? Yes, COVID is a nasty disease, but the mainstream press is covering it to the exclusion of all other news. As context: COVID19 has claimed 37,000 lives in the UK. The 2017/18 winter claimed 49,000 ‘excess deaths’ (additional to…
It’s a bit unreal writing this. I was raised in Rhodesia, a colonial country, during the liberation war. I grew up in Zimbabwe, a liberated country falling into despotism. I have seen a lot of persecution of journalists. But I never believed such persecution could exist (at least not for long) in the UK –…
Opinion by RH 20/05/2020 Dear Friends, The time has come to recognise that this COVID19 disease is less deadly than seasonal flu was only two years ago in the 2017-18 winter. In that season the UK government reported 49,000 ‘excess deaths’ – ie, more than normal. At the time of writing, the government says 36,000…
Video archive from 2008, when Drone Killings started in earnest. Worth watching for the argument that if we don’t kill them first they will kill us. Classic Game Theory from the 1950’s. Its self fulfilling prophesy – so we go kill them first and thieir children gonna come for us for sure. It’s also an…

Even though I’d been there on two previous occasions, there was one place to which I had to return before I finished my brief exploration of the memorials and cemeteries of the western front. In Flanders, near to Dixmuide, north of Ypres, there is a German military cemetery where…
At last – an article that explains how postmodernism relates to neoliberalism … it helps explain the ‘pointlessness’ of contemporary culture… also, this is a link to great alternative news website “Off-Guardian”: https://off-guardian.org/2019/08/11/postmodernism-the-ideological-embellishment-of-neoliberalism/ I’ve chosen to illustrate this story with a portrait of David Bowie, because Bowie is emblematic of our society’s abandonment of the…
AM: Liberation struggle? Really? Which? A economic catastrophe already unfolded in Zimbabwe with power cuts at 15 hours per day? What planet are you living on mate? Have you any idea of the problems Zimbabweans face? Appears not. Please spare us this leftist nonsense. If any of you had any morality you’d go back to the…
4bJuly 2019. Last week, Russian premiere Vladimir Putin said the era of liberalism is over. He’s referring to the global culture which appears to demand everyone can do what whatever they want. There’s a whole lot to unpack there – its about freedom, individualism, the right to make dreams of riches come true. From free…
Europa withy (willow) lantern installed at St Bartholomew’s Church, central Brighton 4 July – 18 July 2019. Please come visit us. https://www.stbartholomewsbrighton.org.uk/findus.htm#Map Europa is the founding myth of the European peoples. It’s the myth of the abduction – or was it an elopement? – of a Phoenician princess, Europa. She lived on the shores of…
(From Spectre of the Real exhibition in April 2019, Brighton) In this two hour workshop you will make a star-shaped lantern out of withy (willow shoots) and tissue. The lantern is similar to those used in lantern parades all over the world, and of course, Brighton’s own Burning the Clocks. The techniques learned can be…
