“For as we forgive, we are forgiven; as we condemn others, we are ourselves condemned. Thus in patience condemn not, neither find fault; not condoning, not agreeing, but let thine own life so shine that others, seeing thy patience, knowing thy understanding, comprehending thy peace, may take hope.”

Everyone has to make a living Jed. Believe it or not books dont make much money after the publishers deduct and then the selling platforms take a chunk. DI books are not that expensive compared to many books. The work that goes into a book is incredible...the hours, the research etc. Ickonic also has to employ staff and I have yet to see such a studio work with two people. The guests... do they need paying? Lots to consider... time is money for everyone. Like I mentioned before, David Icke puts out a lot for free and has done for 30 years. He had kids to raise during that time too... Many cant afford to buy everything we'd like...everyone needs to eat. Like when movies come out - people pay at the box offices and then later it can be viewed for free....we just have to wait. I'm sure most of what we need to know DI has already put out.

 

It's not a surprise that people are having to steal to eat... lost jobs, less money, closed businesses... we know who to blame... Just need people to wake up and resist further bullshit.

 

Let's not cultivate a poverty consciousness.... Gareth could have been lot worse if he resorted to prostitution or drug dealings..... Clearly that doesn't serve to make a better world than producing shows/programmes.

 

Having said that I figured out that my utility bill/direct debit is up like 40%?! Does that seem right to you?

 

Anyway, here is your rebate info in case...

You cannot opt out of the £200 rebate, which will be credited to accounts automatically.

The £200 rebate will have to be repaid over five years from 2023, with customers paying an additional £40 on their bills each year.

^ If this is the case, I don't want it. Damn, I can't opt out?!

^ I am a bit suspicious of having to submit a copy of your bank statement to your council for many reasons.

I'm pretty sure I was not lending to the conscientiousness of poverty. Everyone has to survive. Thats a fact. I'm not sure of your correlation to prostitution /drug dealing in this instance.

 

Everyones utility bills are up this year, in many countries...and no its not right - I think all the current inflation is unnecessary...but hey we are in the midst of multiple agendas.

 

Not sure what utility bills have to do with my post. But I do agree that current inflation is engineered by tbtb

I'd starve before I let them scrutinise my bank statements - though I concede that I may feel differently if I had responsibility for dependents. 

 

The Government, whilst ensuring the fat cats remain bloated on caviare & cream come what may, are robbing off Peter to pay Paul anyway. 

 

They're shafting disabled people who are entitled to that benefit wherever they can get away with it for example.

Patronising platitudes;  you do as you will, and leave others to do as they will; freedom to express ones opinion and all that without the banal preaching.

‘Let’s not’?

You do/say what you choose to do/say, and let others choose the same - without the diktats/preaching.

A warning of things to come?

(Though there are already plenty of ‘aggressive mutants’ around, an epidemic of them could be a worry).

 

Ive already witnessed erratic behaviour in vaxxed individuals; not violence so far, but with the ‘pox vaxx, who knows.

 

And all this gun control stuff, if you’re unarmed how do you deal with an aggressive mutant?

 

A gene-editing experiment on hamsters ended up turning them into ‘aggressive' mutants

Sorry if you took that wrong. I was agreeing with you that everybody has to make money.

An outbreak of hepatitis in the States, mainly in children.

 

I'd like to know how many affected were jabbed but it interests me that the Daily Fail are suggesting it may have been triggered by lockdowns suppressing immune systems. 

 

More likely it's the deliberate degradation of immune systems courtesy of Bill Gates & co. 😡

OK, so I moaned about £200 utility rebate which needs to be paid back yesterday....

They've scrapped that now. lol

You don't have to pay back.

 

Quote

Mr Sunak also announced:

  • Eight million households on means-tested benefits will get £650 paid directly into their bank accounts in two lump sums - one in July, the other this autumn
  • There will be separate one-off payments of £300 to pensioner households and £150 to individuals receiving disability benefits - groups who are "most vulnerable to rising prices"
  • The emergency Household Support Fund, which is allocated by councils in England, will be extended by £500m to £1.5bn. The Devolved governments will receive equivalent funding.

Guilt money. Designed to make the public feel less "angry" about being told to keep away from dying relatives while the Govt partied.

House of Lords today - Economy and the Cost of Living 

 

Q: Can you tell us the cost of the other measures announced today and how those are going to be funded?

 

A: The total cost of the package is around £15 billion, that will be part funded by the levy, and the rest will be funded by borrowing. 

 

Q: The chancellors statement says the levy raises £5.2 billion of revenue and it avoids having to increase our debt burden further? I'm slightly puzzled?

 

A: Um, In terms of uh, the other spending it will be paid for by um, borrowing uh, but it is a one off cost.

'It says it is not in the public interest to reveal information about the storage costs nor where the vessels are.'
