How to persuade the British government to change course as regards migrants     (www.youtube.com)

The History Debunked channel ponders activism. The cheeky title "What is to be done" alludes to https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1901/witbd/ and hints at wider implications. The chap fairly quickly shifts to the history of the home schooling movement in the UK. It has defeated every attempt at regulation, despite all of government and all the usual suspects being in favour of regulating home schooling. That is an interesting success and History Debunked moves on to praise the home schoolers for being organised and to describe the style of pressure that they applied to politics. Would similar organisation and tactics work for immigration?

I was honestly shocked that he was ever called King.

It always made much more sense to me that he would abdicate the crown rather than drag it down with him.

But William is a wanker too and a baldy one at that. So what's the difference?

We could put the whole family in a sack and bash it with bats. It wouldn't matter who got hit they fucking deserved it.

Imposed Insanity – Royalty, Propaganda And The Coming Catastrophe     (www.medialens.org)

https://www.medialens.org/2022/imposed-insanity-royalty-propaganda-and-the-coming-catastrophe/

I found the article interesting because it highlighted the solidity of the British propaganda machine. The BBC is supplemented by many, nominally independent newspapers, but they all toe the line, speaking as though for a country 99% Monarchist, 1% Republican.

I've gone with the article's own title, because it does turn to other matters. But the Queen is a figure head, with little real power. So the article loses focus, and wanders away from wondering who decides that the Queen is an important figure head. Who decides that the propaganda machine must back her and Charles III with unbalanced zeal?

A bit of a white pill here. Glad to see some sanity on transgenderism in England

Partygate reveals that the politicians didn't believe in the rules that they were making. We should be less shocked that they broke rules that they didn't believe in, and more shocked that they made rules that they didn't believe in.

The fixed term Parliaments act has been repealed. Back to the old ways; losing a confidence vote will lead to a general election.
