Misinformation or just no information?

This sad morning about the Southport uprising – if that’s the right word. For those who have never heard of Southport, it’s a small conurbation on the Irish sea coast below Blackpool. It seems the riots are based on disinformation. The most terrible thing that can happen to families is their children being killed whilst enjoying a dance class. It occurred yesterday. But unfortunately on social media many more idiots put out an Islamic influence or plan. Result? Many police injured and in hospital.

The Home Secretary, visibly angry stated how angry she was? But I don’t think she entirely understood the underlying problem in this country. It’s fine talking in London about diversity, gender equality and God knows what else they can come up with but in the shires, the wastes of Scotland and Wales, reality rules. That reality shows a growing resentment towards Islamic influence. No smooth talking politician can fight that, our Home Sec would be better off getting off her pedestal and for once do something constructive.

I am afraid to think we will see many more of such outcomes. On this occasion overshadowing a very incredibly sad happening. The slaughter of innocent children out on a lovely day. I also think in this day of information glut, social media and more, it seems silly to not give full information. In the case of absence of details, some people will just make up their own. Some will use it as a vehicle to start mayhem on behalf of some political views or religion.

The Home Secretary ought to realise the state of the nation. The incredible pressures now building up. When I look at her, and I am sure she is a good person, she has no stature, no commanding look. She is no soldier but is trying to act as one to no avail. Shaking your head in anger whilst being interviewed does just not do it.

Now, the new government is only a few weeks old, it sounded good but slowly all the old typical political claptrap is surfacing. I had hoped Labour had learned their lessons in their wilderness years but I am afraid they will just get into the old way of doing their bits. It seems social sciences have not bit the dust yet. Actually, there is little wrong with social sciences as long as they are applied properly and not harnessed by political views. Perhaps too much to ask in this country. About the only way to start that ball rolling is to sack all University lecturers in the Arts fields and appoint Eskimos. These know more about life and how to live in adverse conditions.

Anyway, we now must face the problem that is Southport. The underlying problem. Whether that can be solved, I don’t know. Human proclivity when facing problems is to fight. Lash out uncontrollably. It is what a certain past politician,Enoch Powell, said – This problem will not go away, it will grow and in the end blood will flow on the streets. Just to say here, we have just witnessed it.

Ed: Regarding the riot itself, if now appears orchestrated. We will have to wait to find out more.

Where are the aliens?

  The question and Answer software called ‘Quora’ had some quite interesting debate about aliens. I am bowled over by how many, and some are quite educated, believe in aliens. Particularly that they have been here and not just that, are still here and doing great intelligent things like making crop circles. I have to be honest here and say that yes there are aliens except we will never see or hear them. As probability will tell you that with trillions of galaxies, having billions of stars the likelihood of other life is near to 100%. The problem is that life such as ours on Earth needs to move but in such a way as is possible on Earth. That is to say, a gravity of 1, oxygen to breathe and food of a kind that is digestible. The next thing to consider is movement, meaning star travel. It is pretty clear that life such as on Earth is not really around in our solar system. We might find some microbes but that’s about it . The distances between the star systems even

Is there such a thing as mind-control?

One of my favourite author’s Scott Mariani. Writing explosive stories with the great character he created, Benedict Hope. The latest gung-ho story called The Moscow Cipher actually highlights one of the things that has bothered a lot of people. That of mind-control. I’ve wondered about that as well since even in this country that is a process carried out. It is not a bloody affair as depicted in the book but nevertheless computers, the power of the chip has made it so much easier to influence the minds of the general public. Fake news, little bits of untruths here and there. No hesitation in deluding the general public. Just read, listen and make your mind up. All done in the name of “the truth would harm us all”. But will it? . We have smart phones. With chips that know where we are, what we do and what we say. And yes, it is logged somewhere. We have been rail-roaded into using Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp. Google knows more about you than the taxman or even your partner and that

Is humanity performing euthanasia on itself?

Looking at the happenings in the Middle East I wonder how suddenly Hamas, i.e the de-facto army of the so-called Palestinian state, took it upon themselves to invade Israel. It cannot be a coincidence that Russia needed some pressures, not in Ukraine but somewhere else to take away the limelight on them. W here better than the Middle East. I am virtually certain that one way or another there are political shenanigans afoot. What IS Palestine exactly? I know about Bedouins, Arabs and Jews, are these not all one and the same? Sure, there are different religions but if you look very closely there are great similarities. It is stupid of most of us not to notice but three of the most followed religions are all based on the same precedents. So w here does the term Palestine come from, I might ask. There was the Ottoman empire, and prior to that the Roman. Prior to that Alexander rampaged through the area. Prior to that we had Egyptians, Hittites and God knows what else. Even monkeys held sw
