Netherlands following suit....

 

Be kinda ironic if this EU move continues and EU states end up with strict immigration policies, whilst the UK who got out of Europe because of immigration mainly, opens up it's borders...

Interesting, and worth watching but imo the fact that they're asking the European Commission for permission says they don't have the backbone for this kind of confrontation with the NWO.  It could be a kind of safety valve to divert the dissenting natives rather like the Rwanda plan did here.   I'm not one to dismiss every attempt to reduce migration, but after all the broken promises I've heard in my life I think the phrase is "actions speak louder than words".

I'm reservedly hopeful; I think Europe is a bit different to UK.

 

In that we've neither experienced fascism nor communism and English people generally don't do much in complaint. In Europe, they have experienced both fascism and communism, things can easily spread across Europe very quickly and workers are more prone to industrial actions..although I don't think the UK government will ever take the complaints seriously. In Europe with the rise of the new right they have just cause to do so, and I'm quietly hopeful.

 

A more boots on the ground perspective as I have family there. I have seen personally a shift. When Germany decided to let in those millions of migrants a short while back, everyone was generally delighted. I saw all the neighbors go out and assist in the camps set up. You go there today, and after some of the murders they've had, and there is a substantial anti immigrant feeling and people are no longer generally welcoming these people.

So from November we have to have a biometric facial scan and give our fingerprints if we want to visit the EU? 
 

Ireland and Cyprus are exempt. 
 

Hopefully there’ll be enough of a backlash that they’ll stop requiring biometrics to travel there , after a couple of months. 

All escape routes out of England are slowly being squeezed

Some of our friends on the forum are better and more experienced on the ground at ‘this’ than me, but I’m increasingly aware of the need to rise above ‘it’ and not believe that all is lost. There are those of ‘us’ who need to continue believing in something else. To create something else. I aspire to be this way, but whatever happens there is always so much good that will always be ignored or painted in a different light. 

People, including so called freedom or truth versions, are addicted to news. Look how many "truthers" need donations or adverts to survive. 

Constant information seeking puts you in a low grade fear state and therefore more controllable because you need the next fix.

When you disconnect from it, especially video or TV type,  which are designed to be hypnotic, life becomes much more meaningful and simple. You tend to connect to people more and you can view things with detachment and not get emotionally involved.

How much info do we really need? The constant quest for info just keeps us rooted to the system. We can choose to break free if we have the courage to let go.

The PTB will say and do anything to keep their grip on political power, even if it means diluting or dropping core policies. The PTB have no wisdom, but in a crude sense they practise what Bruce Lee preached. If your opponent expands, then contract. If your opponent contracts, then expand. The PTB are obviously always looking to expand. It's similar to the mass media's relationship with the sheeple. Think of all things 'Covid'. Once public opinion turned, they stopped talking about quarantine camps, pushing for more lockdowns and calling the unvaccinated 'refuseniks' etc..They are our good friends really.

Was reading about a mega tsunami even in some Scandinavian fjord last September. Some 200m high apparently.

 

I do love stories like this, thankfully no boats were in the area at the time, but was a sight it would have been!

 

Of course climate change is to blame. 
 

 

[1velocity7]

200m tsunamis are fiction only in hollywood

but they got a simulation so thats fact.

More sword fighting in Southend. Second incident in the town like this in last month.

‘Baffled’ and ‘puzzled’ key words here.

Oh and also they have to hit the cc mantra and wording many times

I believe this story. When I slide into the bath the waves I create floods the bathroom.

My wife goes mad.

 

I read something once that suggested a mega wave destroyed doggerland which cut off the UK from Europe forever.

 

That wasn’t climate change related though. But everyone that died that day was unvaccinated.

BBC Hardtalk

Hungary’s government is known for its anti-immigrant, anti-Brussels hardline nationalism. Is it a template for other far-right movements to follow?”

 

“Stephen Sackur speaks to Balázs Orbán, a Hungarian MP and advisor to his namesake, PM Victor Orbán.”

 

End quote 

 

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3ct5t4k

 

Interesting … He discusses the defence of the border. Prioritising jobs for Hungarians. Public money. Ukraine. Lying politicians. He mentions the New World Order. 

 

This fella seemed a bit different, gently and confidently spoken, and not shamed into saying .. I’m not a racist, but … !?  
 

I don’t know if it’s just that the world’s a stage and each must play a part, or what?

 

Is it mostly about creating sides, and history repeating, and so on?
 

In the quote above the BBC mentioned “far right”.

Thanks Campion. I like the sound of that too … it sounds much better than ‘ours’ … 

I didn’t hear him mention that, but he did talk about the effects of immigration and the war in Ukraine. As usual it’s another one where I say I’ll watch it all later. If I don’t write it down it’s gone but there were a few good quotes. Perhaps!

Superbugs ‘could kill 39m people by 2050’ amid rising drug resistance

Child deaths from infections see ‘remarkable’ decline but AMR fatalities of over-70s likely to rise by 146%, study find

 

Superbugs will kill more than 39 million people before 2050 with older people particularly at risk, according to a new global analysis.

 

While deaths linked to drug resistance are declining among very young children, driven by improvements in vaccination and hygiene, the study found the opposite trend for their grandparents.

 

By the middle of the century, 1.91 million people a year are forecast to die worldwide directly because of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) – in which bacteria evolve so that the drugs usually used to fight them no longer work – up from 1.14 million in 2021. AMR will play some role in 8.2 million deaths annually, up from 4.71 million.

 

The study, published in the Lancet was conducted by the Global Research on Antimicrobial Resistance (Gram) Project and is the first global analysis of AMR trends over time

From Redacted: Hezbollha/pager bombs

 

It sounds like the plot of a spy novel but it is very real: Hundreds of pagers exploded on Hezbollah operatives on Tuesday, leaving many of them injured and at least 8 of them dead. 

The pagers were distributed from a recent shipment, according to the Wall Street Journal. They were not only pagers but custom made bombs that were detonated at the same time. Hezbollah had not been able to tally up all of the damage yet. 

 

Who would want to do this? Well, considering that Hezbollah exists to end Israel's oppression of Islamic states, Israel would be a prime suspect. Hezbollah was founded in 1982 after Israel invaded Lebanon. Israel and Hezbollah have been at war for decades. 

According to the Wall Street Journal, "The Israeli military didn’t immediately comment." People in Lebanon are told to avoid using pagers. Sources tell Redacted this operation was in the works for many years and was highly sophisticated. 

 

Edward Snowden said this about the attack: "I genuinely hope it's a supply-chain attack. Because the alternative is simply unthinkable." 

 

What does he mean? That any of the personal devices any of us carry could be remote detonated by a nefarious power. F word.

I don't have the technical knowledge to answer that, but the same question occurred to me.

 

Remember when some kind of mass message was sent to everyone's mobile phones by the government a few years ago? (Well, I switched mine off when they gave us advance notice it was going to happen).

 

It's not such a stretch of the imagination to think they're developing all manner of weaponry like this at all times, that they could turn on the public on a whim. 

[Puzzle]

Imagine your phone giving off a sound/frequency you can't hear making you feel ill and it can still be used as a bomb! Noooo, they wouldn't, would they!!!!! Short of making you a cup of tea, your phone can do a lot! Very, very, very bad weapon!

Answer? don't have personal mobile devices and if you do, keep the ones you already have and don't get new ones which might have been tampered with, I guess.

[Mazthehobo]

Genius really. Reminds me of Thanos for some reason. One click of the fingers and boom. Now, if it is some master plan then whoever planned it has proper inside knowledge. 

 

On a side not I didn’t actually know that pagers were still a thing.

Im sure that was an X Files episode.

Is it true that Queer Harmer has expressed remorse for removing pensioners heating allowance and has decided to gift all his excess senior citizens with FREE PAGERS!?
