I also feel that the solution which will be presented to solve this problem will be UBI. The articles seem to be asking for a reaction in classic Hegelian Dialectic form. Perhaps with the comments turned off, a release valve is being denied to allow for resentment to simmer offline. The main themes of the articles are that the women involved are scroungers and being called out as such by "trolls" online with sympathy coming from some quarters. One of the women bemoans having to attend the Jobcentre to sign on fortnightly describing the experience as "mortifying". There are suggestions that Universal Credit leaves them "stuck" on social security support - it is pointed out that they would be no better off working and can receive "free money" "to do nothing" instead or to raise their children. Having children is a theme too with one mother prioritising spending on her appearance rather than her children but, equally, she does budget well. UBI could be presented to solve these aspects of the "broken system" alongside other issues too such as scrutiny of the bank accounts of pensioners claiming means-tested benefits. If everyone was simply paid a flat rate, it could mean: No more need for Jobcentres, signing on or medical assessments. Claimants won't feel have to undergo a demeaning tick box experience. People will truly be better off if they work as UBI will not be reduced according to earned income. It would provide an incentive to work and whether or not to do so would become a choice. Parents could choose to be with and raise their children guilt free rather than working thus supporting better quality childhoods. People could take time off to re-train, study or volunteer. Pensioners would be left alone in their dotage. No more need to scrutinise the bank accounts, income, capital and other circumstances of benefit recipients. Hard working people may no longer feel hard done by and that they are subsidising the lazy and work-shy. The end of benefit fraud. The end of complaints about benefits scroungers. It's a divisive topic which could be put to bed. Government expenditure on the vast majority of social security administration would no longer be needed. In all honesty I can see the appeal of UBI which, on the face of it, could make for a much fairer system with more freedom and choice for all. In his earlier works such as It Doesn't Have to be Like This - Green Politics Explained, DI was in favour of UBI in order to cover everybody's basic living costs so that nobody would be cold, homeless or hungry. DI posited that it would eliminate poverty and unemployment traps and the "repulsive means test would be gone forever" thus easing fear and insecurity. However, it will surely come with strings attached and dovetail with digital ID and all that implies in terms of overreach and tyrannical control. In my view, it's not the overriding concept of basic income that is the issue - it is whose hands it is in that is most concerning and I think this is where DI is now coming from too. Rather than providing freedom and choice, it could become the "road to serfdom" and dependence on the state especially within the context of increased automation making more and more people unemployable. When dependent and over a barrel, they've got you. https://davidicke.com/2021/04/04/universal-basic-income-and-the-road-to-serfdom/ Call me distrustful, but I have grave doubts about the intentions of the technocrats, so-called "philanthropists" and other powerful individuals who will surely be behind such an initiative.

In recent weeks, while trawling through the BirminghamLive website in a desperate attempt to find some actual local news, I have noticed an increasing trend for articles about people on Universal Credit, basically boasting about getting 'money for nothing'. https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/cost-of-living/im-universal-credit-refuse-visit-32652577 https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/cost-of-living/im-dwp-benefits-mumfluencer-31000-32652309 https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/cost-of-living/im-self-confessed-dwp-benefits-32644976 https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/cost-of-living/im-pregnant-mum-three-dwp-32648304 https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/cost-of-living/im-single-mum-1700-universal-32653719 The above 5 screenshots are from what is currently presented on the BirminghamLive home page, so it's not like I've been actively looking for these! (I'm pretty sure the same, or at least similar, stories are also plastered across all the other Reach Plc news websites across the UK) So what gives, and what is this all about? Unsurprisingly, there are no comments allowed on any of these articles, because no doubt they would be filled up with all sorts of angry and 'hateful' comments, as well as the usual "fair play to them" etc. On the one hand, it appears on the surface to be some very blatant 'promotion' or even advertising of Universal Credit, by promoting how much people can 'earn' simply by not going to work and earning a proper wage. On the other hand, it also serves as a 'kick in the teeth' for those good honest folk - such as myself - who do go to work and earn a living, which pays for rent/mortgage, council tax, household/energy bills, and puts food on the table. As well as being obvious 'click-bait' to generate advertising revenue, it's also 'rage-bait', designed for people to share on social media - as they can't comment on the articles themselves - which then stirs up a whole load of other arguments. One thing I do find curious though, is that all these 'universal credit scroungers' mostly appear to be 'white people'. Of course, in these latest examples, it's all 'white women' but I have also seen similar articles featuring 'white men' as well. Strangely, you don't see any such articles about Asian/Pakistani men boasting about how much they 'earn' from Universal Credit, while having a nice sideline in dealing drugs, operating protection rackets, or stealing cars to strip them for parts. Admittedly, I've not read any of the articles I have linked to above, so I don't know what they're about. The purpose of this post is just so that I can point out yet another example of how the mainstream media are using social engineering to manipulate the public's perception of reality. Actually now I think about this, maybe this is also some 'predictive programming' in order to drum up support for when the current Government wants to try and reduce the benefits/welfare bill due to the black hole in their finances. "Of course these lazy dole-dossers should get less money!!!"

Went to a Portugese restaurant last night and ordered some Calamari. After waiting over 2 hours,I asked what is taking so long? The waiter replied "Well,for the best taste we cook it from live, but it keeps turning the gas off". A 7 year old boy walks in on his mother towelling off after a bath. "Mum, what's that between your legs?" Thinking on her feet, she responds"Why that's where God hit me with a golden axe" "Fuck me", replies the son, "right in your cunt, I bet that hurt".

It’s what happens when you love children but you’re in the wrong circle.

Mental. Parents rushing off to get their kids jabbed. Standing in a queue to get a flu jab. Then rush to McDonald’s for lunch because they have a fat jab pencilled in for the afternoon. What’s brilliant is how when these folk do get sick they lay in bed for months coming out with drivel like “ooh imagine how worse I would have been if I didn’t get the jab!” Although, tbh, when I get sick I do go around telling people how bad It could have been if I had been jabbed….

Of course they would. It will need the parents consent I should imagine so it will all come down to if tge parents are divvies or not.

UBI will eventually be a bare minimum to survive allowance. No treats. No holidays. I think they might do something, again on the notion you have the app, where they look at your situation and say, “right, single parent, three kids…. AI suggests you need £100 a week on food shopping to log in to your LidlPlus (or whichever store you have chosen) and find £100 in food and drink vouchers and coupons.” The government and shops could make a deal regarding VAT so everyone is a winner but the single parent would have to buy what they have been told is necessary. If they are found to have spent it on alcohol and prioritised that over food then social services will take their kids away and their weekly allowance will be slashed! On the other hand…. I do get why being on benefits is appealing. If you have child care it can cost most of your wages to put your kids into nursery or with a childminder. And even if you can get your kids into nursery between 9-3, you would need a childminder for the pick up times and even then you would need to find a job that’s between 9-3 and close enough to the nursery to get kids yourself. Of course the cynic in me thinks the governments are purposely getting further into debt so that when they come up with their saviour plan (UBI and digital ID) people will be so desperate they will probably beg for it.

Yeah and I think this is how it’ll creep in. For most people, most of the time, things probably don’t seem that different. I thought the other day about shopping and the amount of apps people have. Tesco. LidlPlus. Co op etc… And how at the minute you can still shop without one.. But, imagine another lockdown scenario where shops are closed. You can order online but only with an app. They may even allow a few shoppers daily but only those with that shops app etc… I had a letter in the post the other day from my GP suggesting I download an app to make booking appointments easier and to have queries responded to quicker…. As they know people are fed up with hour long waits on the phone just to be told that the next available appointment is months away. And slightly unrelated, but now, every time I go online to query something like broadband, or even a google search, my results are provided by AI. It’s not even creeping in anymore. Apps and AI are already herding us into a pen.

I recently had to get visual ID on a smartphone for some urgent necessary legal documents concerning the sale of an elderly relative's house, in order for the family to have funds to pay their very expensive care bills. As I refuse to own a smartphone, and even though I fought for it, no other option was possible apparently, I had to enlist the help of a friend who did the photos for the form on their smartphone. Instant facial recognition technology, whether I want it or not, centralised nicely and digitally with my licence, signature, and all other points of ID...etc etc. The one thing I wasn't asked for was a fingerprint. This didn't happen in 2011 when another family member's house was sold after their death. All I had to provide then was a signature on a paper document, a couple of utility bill photocopies, and a photocopy of driving licence. So it does seem that digital ID mechanisms are already doing their thing. They are probably the thing for lots of legal transactions nowadays, and obviously already in place for dealing with property. We are already sucked in, like it or not, or chunks of our lives simply won't work. But I do still like to see those signatures on the petition rising each minute, and take note that there are quite a lot of people who are not dozing off. Very high numbers of protesters in Labour constituencies too which I found interesting.

this is what has killed most forums. reddit has become the worst. you cant discuss anything anymore. maybe its a blessing in disguise and will encourage people to go out and discuss things in the real world with real people. i know i miss that

And the more time we spend consuming 'information' rather than interacting directly with real people/nature/reality etc the easier we are to manipulate. Life becomes more of a belief system than a direct experience. Admittedly I spend a lot of time too reading what other people say about things instead of experiencing them for myself. You could be right about them wanting to cut the welfare bill, as it's a ripe situation for divide & rule. Also, it could be a way to soften us up for UBI. Rather than cutting back on benefits, increase them so everybody gets them and no-one misses out. But they've got to push through tax rises in that case (on top of all the fiscal drag doing it by default already).

It should be labelled correctly as "regulated murder", but doesn't sound so fluffy then!

I'm no fan of it myself, even the term "assisted suicide" is a euphemism. Suicide means to kill yourself, so assisting someone else to do it means it's no longer just a suicide but partly a killing of someone else.

Frightening People Into ‘Vaccine’ Compliance https://principia-scientific.com/frightening-people-into-vaccine-compliance/ They are proven stressors that can mirror or even drive illness. Yet these common-sense realities have been sidelined in favor of a perpetual war on invisible invaders. The real weapon is not a microbe—it is fear itself. And the only true immunity comes from breaking its hold through understanding the fraud of germ “theory” and virology.

My mother in law was in the SS, and then she got drummed out, FOR EXCESSIVE CRUELTY! After the war she returned to England where she did a succession of jobs and also owned a few failed businesses including a pork butcher's shop in Tel Aviv, a mountaineering guide company in Holland and when she retired she was working at an airport kick starting Jumbo jets!

A boy was upstairs playing on his computer when his grandad came in the room and sat down on the bed. "What are you doing?", asked the grandad. "You're 18 years old and wasting your life! When I was 18 I went to Paris, I went to the Moulin Rouge, drank all night, had my way with the dancers, pissed on the barman and left without paying! Now that is how to have a good time!" A week later, the grandfather comes to visit again. He finds the boy still in his room, but with a broken arm in plaster, 2 black eyes and missing all his front teeth. "What happened?", he asked. "Oh Grandfather!", replied the boy. "I did what you did! I went to Paris, went to the Moulin Rouge, drank all night, had my way with the dancers, pissed all over the barman, and they beat the crap out of me!" "Oh dear!", replied the grandad. "Who did you go with?" "Just some friends, why? Who did you go with?" "Oh!" replied the grandad. "The SS.

God rest his soul.

Panda bears appeared, out of nowhere, one hundred years ago.- NO records or paintings of them before that. - Were they artificially created ?

Racism is attacking people based on race then ironically also pioneering anti racism propaghanda 'white privilege ' to shield and protect the racist agenda from too much scrutiny.

I read this with great interest, and (naively on my part) it was the first I had heard about it. Then today I read about how the American actress Anne Heche, who died in an L.A. hospital this summer after suffering severe burns in a single-car MVA, was at the time of her death producing a film about missing children and children and child sex trafficking, along with former Indiana Republican congresswoman Jackie Walorski, who also mysteriously died in a car crash in the same month (August, 2022).

I think its likely if he was a paedophile, they would have kept it covered up, like they did with all the others. Protected him as part of the cult. The fact they threw him under the bus is telling, that he wasnt part of it - a distraction to what was really going on.

Agree, I reckon he was innocent and used as a scapegoat to be blamed for the things he knew/ wanted to expose on elites in paedowood. I once had a what felt like a one way convo with 8 colleagues trying to explain MJ's innocence and was met with silence by the others. The agenda against him was plain to see, although there were strange aspects to him, which I think the media utilised to their advantage to demonise the chap. May he RIP.
