www.theguardian.com/uk-news/live... So the authorities knew, and cannot be bothered interviewing the lady who called it in. We've seen this before, so convenient for war rhetoric. MI5/6 know these groups, and how to ginger them into action. Sounds very amateurish!

This story is about so much more than one man and one company. It’s about the corruption of our British democracy through the subtle intermingling of the financial and political interests of our political class and the world’s most powerful corporations. open.substack.com/pub/zeteouk/...

Nonsense! Gas prices have risen across Europe, Africa & the Middle East. It’s not peculiar to Britain. What Monaco-based tax avoider Ratcliffe is trying to do is blackmail the UK govt to bung him some taxpayers’ money by threatening to close some his Hull plants www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It's very similar indeed to the situation with RT - but given its reach and influence and the active participation on it of UK politicians I'd suggest X is far more dangerous.

Pathologist Dr. Elizabeth Stern's pioneering research in cytopathology transformed cervical cancer from a frequently fatal disease into a highly treatable and preventable disease. Her research revolutionized women’s healthcare. She was born #OTD in 1915. #WomenInSTEM
A black-and-white portrait of Canadian-American pathologist Dr. Elizabeth Stern (1915–1980), whose pioneering research in cytopathology transformed cervical cancer into a preventable disease. Dr. Stern is positioned slightly at an angle, facing forward with a calm, composed, and serious expression. Her dark hair is styled in a short, neat wave off her forehead, and her gaze is directed toward the camera. She wears a dark, simple collared blouse with subtle dotted textures. The composition focuses entirely on her upper shoulders and head against a stark, light-colored, uncluttered background that provides a high-contrast framing. The lighting is soft and even, highlighting her facial features. The overall mood is formal, dignified, and academic, capturing a historic visual record of an influential woman in STEM.

Please understand. We as a nation are under assault by the USA and their rich associates, as well as the billionaire class, and with other attacks from Russia and Israel. It's not small boats, its huge bank accounts.. This is bigger than any threat we've faced since WW2. 1984 is here.
