Peter Hitchins mentioned the government's Covid response, directing it towards Mark Harper on Question Time, during the discussion of - 'should we be worried about the dangers of Artificial Intelligence.' I can't quote what he said yet, but it's perhaps a sign of what is being allowed to come out now, as they would surely have edited it not so long ago. Billy Brag mentioned rabbit hole. God I'm almost sick of that phrase. Aren't there other words? He says people who tell lies should be held to account. I assume he means us and not the real liars.

When asking the public if they accept Camilla as Queen one text said "she's done a lot of work supporting victims of domestic violence". These freaks are obsessed with promoting the idea of 'domestic violence'. Even during lockdown the only people they worried about locking down was those who were victims of 'domestic violence'. What a load of fake concern. If any couples are at each others throats it's likely to be because of the constant and deliberate torture from above. These lot never promote anything truly beautiful. They just love to roll around in misery, strife and illness. -

A few scattered quotes from the Royal conversation as the y wait for the arrival of Will and Kate " They want to be seen It shows what can happen (shotgun cartridges) We wouldn't want the police to enforce a lockdown My friends in America say they never get as close to politicians as we do to Charles Yes when the president visits Whole cities are put into lockdown Whole roads are cleared A ring of steel The Royals are here by consent - they like to press the flesh " -

Will and Kate to visit pub in Central London I thought why that pub? The presenter asks I don't suppose you can tell us this, but why that pub in particular? The 'reporter' replies I don't know, I know ... it's a chain .. etc ... Caller texts in that it was one of George Orwell's favourite pubs? Jaw drop. These sneaky f*ckers. It really is fun and games for them thinking up all of this. The Dog and Duck pub, Soho ATTRACTING FAMOUS FACES SINCE 1897 Our Grade II listed building in Soho has a fascinating history. Although the pub was originally built in 1734 on the site of the Duke of Monmouth’s home, the building that houses us today was built in 1897 by the architect Francis Cannon. We’ve attracted our fair share of famous faces over the years. George Orwell celebrated with a glass of absinthe when his book Animal Farm was selected for the American Book of the Month Club, John Constable and Dante Gabriel Rossetti both visited, and pop icon Madonna once popped in for a pint! -
Sue Gray was still working on Partygate while in secret job talks. (Political reality TV for the masses.) The presenter said this will keep this going for a bit longer. "Why hasn't Keir told us when they met" "She pleaded the fifth" "This should negate the partygate report" Yesterday on a debate someone said this situation has happened many times before without any fuss. Eventually you hear some truth or common sense between the hysteria and petty distraction. The psychology / indoctrination around partygate is, and has always been sickening. Tricking people into demanding the rules of (unnecessary and viscious) lockdown. When anyone mentions partygate to me I've usally got something else to say about it, given half a chance.

David Starkey feels that there should not be local representation at the coronation, as it's a national event. He was referring to a man who had recovered from cancer and been invited to the coronation. He says love drives you. He mentions a quote;To love your country your country must be worthy of love. -

David Starkey - I like to hear him as he gives me food for thought. He says "it reminds me of the tower of babel" ... then later ... "this tower of babel aspect of the coronation." Also he's not happy that traditional parts of the ceremony have been deleted and he asks by whom? And why? He sort of said about the hierarchy and the presenter asked if there should be a hierarchy at all. Typical. Sounds like one reason it's dumbed down to create even more illusions, like the one that the King is not that well off, as they've been telling us all week. Oh, they said he owns nothing, or next to nothing. Bloody hell, just realised where I've heard that before! Maybe they didn't use THAT word exactly? Interesting. They said it's all owned by the dutchy and the trusts. He owns a house, but they even mentioned he doesn't own the one in Romania. 'd heard he spends a lot of time in Romania. -
Alzheimers breakthrough Nearly a million people are living with Alzheimers First we need to check if it's safe and effective You will need regular full body MRI scan, so we need the NHS to be ready for this.

South West UK. Trails all over the sky all day today. Lots of crosses, spreading out till the sky was covered in haze and at 7pm a complete blanket of that flat and textureless 'cloud'. When the sky was still blue some of the trails had that fallen wispy look. The forecast tomorrow is rain, and that would make sense judging by past days when spraying seemed intense. Nearly forgot to add that between 9 and 10 while the sky was still quite nice and light but dark, the lines had that dark smoky look, and some had spread much wider right overhead.

ItV news West Country 2 part investigation by a young journalist called Marina "LGBTQ hate crimes have increased 30% in the South West" "Hateful attacks" "We are investing billions into the criminal justice system" "At the heart of this story is people who just want to be accepted" "Can lead to conflicts" Bobbi Pickard says "The most important word in trans people is people, we're just trying to get on with our lives" "Police really do want victims of hate crime to come forward, but ... " "Hate can rally hurt" "Things are being done to make things better but it will take time" I wonder if we replaced the word trans with someone or something that is genuinely deserving of any hateful feelings from the public, and talk about that on the news instead.

More from the GB news spot earlier. Guest MP "I think it was OTT. Ridiculous. They didn't seem to be able to make up their own minds whether you looked honest and they would let you through, or not. Huge queues to get your accreditation, and you couldn't do anything without accreditation." Presenter "Is the security operation strong enough? Absolutely not." -

JrM - Michael Cole had the feeling that the danger to us is not much particularly We were back on air for 6 or 7 minutes and then we were evacuated again We were evacuated after the explosion. it was a whole hour before we were asked to move. Why was that? They have to take precautions, or they would be criticised and and they have done It's not unpleasant It's like at work, when you have a ... it's been like a bomb drill or a fire drill JRM and MC, some paraphrasing here, not a lot -

Reporting from a caravan / temporary studio at Buckingham Palace "No-one allowed in or out" "Total lockdown" Jacob Rhys Mogg - they detained a man at 7 and evacuated us at 8 so I don't know what they were doing for that hour .. ... A few shotgun cartridges doesn't seem to me to be a reason for evacuation ... ... I've got Michael Cole next to me who didn't like being told what to do by men in orange tabards ... When I saw all this fuss I thought the king had arrived to inspect, as the Queen used to do The police are at the door. We're being asked to evacuate right now. I heard a controlled explosion. Why do we need to leave of the explosion is over? Michael Cole; "I'm not leaving unless I have a direct order, we are not coming off air unless we have the order, I need police officer here to tell me. I've been in wars all over the world. What is the ofer? Are you ordering us to come off air? Is that the order?" ---- Military police in red berets have increased in the last hour -

Norman Brennan former police officer on talk radio He talked about everything that's going on in the police force including that people are leaving, they are unfulfilled and frustrated with what they've been made to do. I don't judge the police by the idiots who wear rainbow flags etc, but by the ones who I have the utmost respect for - those who have been sabotaged like many of the rest of us. Norman said we destroyed one of the best police forces in the world. I know they have been chipped away at for what, 20 years? Now it's a sledgehammer. Anyway he ended by saying why can't the politicians do what they did during covid and work together. Jesus wept. What a plonker. These are like the people in the old horror films who escaped from the house of horrors only to jump in the first passing car, turned to look at the driver ... and ... This Norman, he will just carry on banging his poor gullible brain washed head against the wall. Last night on GB News Lewis Schaffer said the nurses called for lockdown, paid for with printed money, and now it's caused the inflation ... and they're on strike. Or words to that effect. He certainly knows that lockdown was the bulldozer ... not Liz and Ukraine, etc. I'm tempted to listen to his podcast if I get a sec. -

A couple of lines 'off the TV'.. Sharon Gaffka; Ex civil servant and reality star; "I enjoyed working in the civil service because there was a variety of people" (There should be a variety everywhere, not everyone the same, IMO) "I was out after lockdown, enjoying the old world that we used to" Her drink was spiked with "the consensus was that it was GHB" "I lost 60,000 followers overnight, which is frightening when that is how you earn your living" (This also reminded me how Alex Jones used to say how followers numbers were manipulated, up or down, but people tend to believe these numbers) What is the secret to success on I'm a celebrity? Christopher Biggins; "Just be yourself" Nadine Dorries MP and now a TV presenter "That's what I was told when I started work here, but myself had never interviewed people or read an autocue before!" Christopher; "Well you're doing a good job" (When are we ever encouraged to just be ourselves now?! I personally enjoy individuals, characters, mavericks, eccentrics, 'extreme' opinions that make you think, and make life more interesting and challenging, etc. We all used to be very natural at this, what, before 10 ish years ago? ) Mike Graham; "This working from home nonsense. It's a middle class thing, it's not aimed at workers who drive a bus, or plaster someone's home, is it?! David Bull; They're actually installing software to check that people are working at home." Interesting how many MP's earn a living as presenters and guests on the TV. How many chat shows have panels of 4 to 6 people chewing the fat. How on GB news they always have two people representing opposite views "for balance", and one might say "I know I'm supposed to say the opposite, but I agree with your point" -
