Ongoing Ottoman onslaught...

Click to enlarge; from Walk Free Global Slavery Index

No longer Ottoman but 'Turkey Is First in Europe for Modern Slavery'. 

More excellent writing and eye-opening facts from A. C. Rosenthal [Link: on Substack]. 

The Walk Free Foundation's Global Slavery Index [LINK]; Turkey ranked fifth in the world. 

Shocking, as AC Rosenthal highlights: 

 "Not fifth in its region. Not fifth in the developing world. Fifth on earth, behind only North Korea, Eritrea, Mauritania, and Saudi Arabia." 

And of course that constantly undemocratic, death-spiralling, madhouse-led E.U. seems desperate to see them fully inside the city walls.

Outstandingly obvious...

...and well worth the reminder. Please read ALL of the linked article 'Testing: How to Create a Pandemic of Fake Disease', [LINK] by Kit Knightly, published a couple of months back at OffGuardian...

"Or rather [the tests] didn’t work the way everyone said they did. They were just a mechanism for producing a result, and that mechanism worked the same if you were sick or well, living or dying, vaxxed or unvaxxed, left-handed or right. A person, a goat, or a piece of fruit.

Just like rolling a dice."

Overt ocracy overpayment...

---

Good work and good info [as usual] from The Taxpayer's Alliance in the 20th edition of their Town Hall Rich List (a.k.a troughers on the take*) 

In a nutshell: 

Local authority employees with £100,000 in total remuneration in 2024-25 rose 21.2% from 2023-24 

Local authority employees receiving £150,000 rose 14.9% in the same period. 

Those receiving £200,000 or more rose 39.7 % 

The highest paid overall received £457,500. "The name and job title of this individual were not provided." 

"The individual with the largest compensation for loss of office payment in 2024-25 was the unnamed assistant chief executive at Cambridge council who received £222,559 in compensation and £330,101 in total remuneration"...I bet you ANYTHING this twat walked into an equivalent job in another council within three months, just like that guy in Somerset a few years back. 

Full pdf paper with all the data HERE. 

All this is fine, after all, no-one could possibly say things have gotten worse... can they? Roads better, services better, more rubbish collection, more...oh. 

 * there will be some good people working across the councils in the U.K., unfortunately most are grossly overpaid, not very efficient, and at the same time actually believe they're good at their job; with each pay-rise that false impression swells their self-entitlement further.

Of Olympian overtures...

---

"[Diogenes] once went to Olympia and on his return was asked if he had seen a great crowd of men. “A great crowd, yes,” he said, “a great crowd of men, no." 

 

Think about that in today's political climate. Or even the last 3 decades. Where are the men, the good men, the great men? ....or women (echoes of Monty Python).

The above line is preceded by the following: "One of Diogenes’s habits was to wander round in full daylight carrying a lighted lamp, claiming to be looking for an honest man. Obviously, what he meant was that such individuals are so rare that artificial light is necessary, even during the daytime, to find one. He took this cynicism about men to greater heights." 

From Guy de la Bèdoyère's excellent article "Diogenes, We Need You More Than Ever" [LINK], posted today at The Daily Skeptic. 

 

The whole point of course is to decry the absolute moronic corrupt pap that 'lead us', at every level of national and local government, in pretty much every county, state and country in the world. Whose only wish is to remain gorging at the trough. 

(Guy's latest book is 'The Confessions of Samuel Pepys. His Private Revelations' [Amazon LINK], Abacus 2025, and in the US Pegasus 2026).

Orders of opaque origin...

Taken from eugyppius: a plague chronicle, and not for the first time! 

The latest blogpost chimed with me because as a subscriber I was one of those he was addressing: 'Why I don't write about Covid anymore' [LINK]. 

I hope eugyppius doesn't mind my blogging his write-up; this latest is only for paid subscribers and I am going beyond his blog postscript "it's OK to share it with a few close friends and family, if you want." (my blog readership is far fewer than that hehe). That said I have several times suggested subscribing to the chronicle because despite being a fantastic catalogue of the pandemic years it is also my go-to place for any German news, especially politics where the German politicians seem determined to outdo the mindless stupidity of their French and British counterparts. 

Anyhooo: "Now and again, readers who have been with me for years write to express their disappointment that my blog has moved on from the great Covidian menace and that I’ve shifted my focus to German domestic politics and related matters.... " 

Covid was one of the most bizarre, terrifying and openly irrational social and political psychoses that many of us have ever seen. It changed my life forever, and it did the same for many of you.

There is much much more:

"This is because the political systems that generated that insanity are very much not in the past. They are still with us. All the ingredients that made the unusual Covid purgatory possible are still there...

"...a priestly expert class that can sanction literally any state intrusion via liturgical invocations of The Science; a bloated and extremely complex bureaucracy that nobody understands and that is internally well-networked enough to be subject to disturbing social contagions; and a powerful, elaborate state with tentacles reaching all the way down into every last personal electronic device."

 "That is the real story of Covid" 

Well worth reading in full, you'll need to subscribe but it's worth it.

Orinoco outlaw II...

---

Yes, this could be Orinoco Outlaw MDXXLXXI but this is a good one: back in 2020 I mentioned that the US Government posted a 15 million dollar reward against "Nicolás Maduro Moros and 14 Current and Former Venezuelan Officials Charged with Narco-Terrorism, Corruption, Drug Trafficking and Other Criminal Charges". 

This week - after creeping up slowly to 25 million - it has just been doubled by Marco Rubio the US Secretary of State to a cool FIFTY million. "The Department of State and the Department of Justice are announcing a reward offer increase of up to $50 million under the Narcotics Rewards Program (NRP) for information leading to the arrest and/or conviction of Nicolás Maduro for violating U.S. narcotics laws." 

I'm a bit late to this excellent news as I was crossing the Atlantic when it was announced but the reasons are plain and simple:

"Since 2020, Maduro has strangled democracy and grasped at power in Venezuela. Maduro claimed to have won Venezuela’s July 28, 2024, presidential election but failed to present any evidence that he had prevailed. The United States has refused to recognize Maduro as the winner of 2024 election and does not recognize him as the President of Venezuela."

Well said. The 'reward offer is authorized by the Secretary under the NRP, (Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs) which supports law enforcement efforts to disrupt transnational crime globally and bring fugitives to justice as a key pillar of President Trump’s "America First" priorities.'

Ongoing outing of Obama...

---

Hope - [nope] - dope - dupe...and so it went. 

The continued outing of oppressive Obama is a good thing. It needed to happen; the festering wound needs opening and cleansing. Anyone still bothered to come here knows of my multiple attempts. The best (IMHO, LOL) was from just under 12 years ago, Sept 2013. Also, considering the current revelations, we knew immediately in Trump's first term about the Obama 'stay behind army' of activists and agitators in the US governing apparatus. 

This blogpost is all words of others, the ever excellent Mikki Willis of Plandemic fame (mikkiwillis.com) and hat-tip to Robert W Malone's Substack: My Tribe is Small. 

There is a handy list of Obama's "'accomplishments.' Tell me again why he was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize?" (a prize I might add that was awarded only 9 months into his first term, meaning that taking into account the months of planning and decision-making this was obviously was a prize crowbarred in to fit a narrative, e.g. a total fraud.) 

Looking back, Obama wasn’t the antidote to a broken system; he was the system perfected - wrapped in charm, eloquence, and just enough illusion to keep hope alive while the country’s foundations were quietly hollowed out. In the end, he didn’t heal old wounds - he deepened them, weaponized them, and left us more divided, distracted, and disillusioned than before.

And much more...

'Oui out' oldie opus...

---

Oldie but goodie:

Odible odditorium...

---

Long time...yes I'm still alive and still travelling too much. 

Anyhoo... found a great source (of ridicule) today: Green European Journal. Look at these nefarious, heart-stopping, spine-chilling quotes:

Orbán: "it is the mindset of Western elites that prevents us from even being able to identify the most important challenge we face: the question of demography. Instead of this, politics is preoccupied with how to enforce carbon quotas in the economy and gender quotas in society". Evil personified, clearly! 

Meloni: "For decades, the dominant culture said that having a child was likely to be incompatible with many other choices; that having a child compromised your freedom, your career, your dreams and in some cases even your beauty…". Such depravity is hard to fathom. 

German AfD party: "The federal government is fighting so-called climate change with billions. Let’s instead fight the demographic catastrophe with investments in children and families." Oh the horror!

Farage: "of course we need higher birth rates but we’re not going to get higher birth rates in this country until we can get some sense of optimism". What heinous witchcraft is this?!

Another series of quotes they also repeat as if they are a bad thing, such as "by scaring the youth into mental imbalance a part of adolescence and trust in society is destroyed... I feel bad for them, since they are having a part of their lives destroyed" and "We need to take children and the youth's psychological health seriously, and all the fear-mongering they are hearing may put them on benefits while still young". 

To any sane person both these things are patently true but to the GEJ 'children are framed as vulnerable and in need of protection from an environmentalist elite and biased media that are only pushing one side of the debate'. Well, yes, they are! Have you seen the mental health and suicide stats FFS? Of course, as you'd expect, they end with the obvious:

"These regimes declared themselves as representing the 'youth of the nation'. Benito Mussolini’s government, for example, promised to 'make way for youth', while Adolf Hitler famously declared that 'whoever has the youth has the future".

Amusingly the article's summary could be summarised as 'make way for youth' LOL. The complete irony with which they finish is beyond parody: "Our educational systems must equip the youth with the tools for the sort of critical thinking that today’s polarised politics requires" [facepalm]...

Why the fuck do you think we're in the mess we're in you dickwads?

Outright outing of Obama...

---

...and thanks to mike flynn in the comments HERE for the title! 

How Trump crushed Obama’s legacy, The president-elect rides the cowboy spirit by David Samuels writing for Unherd. 

Reminded me to read back my own attempt from early 2017 about Trump's 2016 administration being plagued by Obama's 'stay behind army', which in turn led me to Obama's offspring II... ("…When there is a lack of honor in government, the morals of the whole people are poisoned" from 'Our Greatest Danger' [Herbert Hoover 31st POTUS]) with his blatant stirring of racial tension... 

Anyhoo, today's Unherd article is excellent in every way: "After Trump left, Obama stayed in Washington and continued his role as unelected Party Leader during what had been advertised as the Biden Presidency. Obama’s method of avoiding scrutiny from the pliant DC press was entirely in character"

Until he misstepped. By compelling Biden to withdraw in favour of Harris, who turned out to be an even worse candidate than a senile old man who had begun to resemble a badly taxidermied deer, Obama broke the unspoken agreement that had put him beyond scrutiny

[sic]

...and much more. Read it.

Only one odd-one-out...

...can you spot it?

[From BBC] 

 Eat shit lefties...oh, are we not doing that?

Official opposition: Olukemi Olufunto...

---

Well done Kemi. You should have won before when Liz Truss won, she began well but was shafted by TPTB (no, not tetraphenylphosphonium tetraphenylborate) to get slimy Sunak in. 

Now you have your chance: please be the Conservative you are, not the continuity lefty direction uniparty opposition leader that Gove et al want you to be. 

You MUST push for strict immigration control and defusing the rampant bias that Islam enjoys: further Islamification is a no-no. Shut their shit down. And Starmer is a dangerous zealot, make sure he is exposed. 

Update 6 p.m.: A good read on UNHERD by Tom McTague that may interest waverers (me for one!)

Obvallated oakus: oppignorating ourselves...

---

2.5 trillion. Two point five TRILLION. That is now the UK national debt. No matter that we see chronic wastage everywhere: on Net Zero (Milliband brothers clown show), IT failures, Quantative Easing, Bank bailouts, HS2, Furlough (yes, we won't forget), Track and Trace, (is Hancock in gaol?), more levels of government, more expenses, more overpaid shysters, etc, etc...etc (and NO it has nothing to do with Liz ousted-in-a-soft-coup Truss). [edit: Every WEEK the interest is 100 billion...Every. Week. ] Sorry: Last year debt interest was 100 billion. 

"In the time it takes you to read this sentence, the national debt has increased by more than £20,000."

Or almost 16 million quid per HOUR. The UK debt clock can be see HERE and I recall when it passed one trillion; yes, at 16 minutes past five in the afternoon of 17th Jan 2011 to be exact; how can I be so sure? Because I blogged an update back then. 

The Tax Payer's Alliance have relaunched their "ticking debt clock! 15 years after our original ground breaking campaign publicising the extent of the UK’s national debt." Yippee! 

Searching through the archives it isn't hard to see where the problem began to skyrocket, although to be clear it is decades of red and blue and all governments are to blame. It is just a shame The Guardian have removed all the comments (OK, it is 11 years ago - ahem - but I would have liked to have reread an Old Ows opinion and my 'highly recommended' points: presumably NOT as petty as this: 

"What irritated me was that in the image [...] they had squeezed the picture of [Gordon] Brown far to the left making him appear over only those 'good' years of surplus (which was when, as we all know, he followed Conservative spending plans) and have the picture of Darling spread over most of the Crash Gordon years and we ALL now know, and it isn't hard to see, that Britain's debt soared from 2000 and Brown was to blame. It is petty things like the positioning of the Chancellors' pictures that annoy me (yes, yes, OK, I'm small minded and petty when it comes to Gordon Brown). 

Yes, despite the Conservatives not helping (Blue Labour) I still blame New Labour (Blair, Brown et el...) and you won't change my mind.

Anyway, you may have heard of the Big Mac Index, well the UK national debt (at this moment in time...on no, now it's gone up...and using the World Population Clock) could buy 72 Big Macs, for each and every single living person on the planet...yes, that's the reason for the image above :-) 

Oratory of obfuscation...obviously...

---

Yes I am a bit behind but that's what happens when you're a working day behind, although Twitter helps. Kier Starmer could have made it, he could have built on the [nauseatingly] choreographed 'hit the ground running' start to his PM-ship but he blew it big time; in the most obvious and predicted way (by just about everyone with their 'buzz word bingo card' handy, I was correct on a couple of the main points). 

It is exactly as Frank Haviland says in his latest article on The New Conservative: Starmer Picks a Side.

"...Starmer who has painted himself as the leader for our times would surely have brought his finest pallette and brush to the lectern? Certainly, he did. And no doubt for the faithful, his painting by numbers routine did the job." For those of us on the other side of the political divide however – the tens of millions of small ‘c’ conservative, closed-borders fetishist, ‘far-right’ thugs, with ridiculous aspirations that our daughters might be permitted to live – his performance was even worse than expected. [my emphasis]

"Rather than oratory for the ages, I’d call this dereliction of duty – a textbook display of obfuscation, memorable only for what was not said, rather than that which was. There was no mention of ‘children’, ‘protection’, ‘border security’, ‘failed multiculturalism’ or ‘integration’. The idea that this speech will install calm, reassure the public, or prevent future atrocities is about as close to zero as you can get. This was about Starmer doing what he does best: reassuring those who vote the right way, and blaming the response to crime, rather than the crime itself."

And like Frank writes to summarise, many I predicted that 'Labour’s honeymoon would be short-lived' – "it’s now officially over." Spot on.

Silkie Carlo, Director of Big Brother Watch said:

"It’s deeply worrying that the Prime Minister totally failed to address the causes of the violent, racist thuggery we have witnessed in Britain this week, let alone his failure to even address the causes of the heinous knife crime that has cruelly taken so many lives. To promise the country ineffective AI surveillance in these circumstances was frankly tone deaf and will give the public absolutely no confidence that this government has the competence or conviction to get tough on the causes of these crimes and protect the public."

Obverting ordurification...

---

Okay, you may struggle with the meaning of ordurification, mainly because I just made it up, as one can do with flexible languages: what led me to use it was Robert Malone's (yes that one) The "Great Reset" is accelerating "The Great Enshittening".[LINK] 

If you don't want to know about the meaning of the word, the integration of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion [DEI must DIE!] and 'The Great Reset' etc., then you can jump using THIS LINK to the relevant point of the article: the computer crash Crowdstrike clusterfuck and the whole Democrat, DNC, Trump. Russia collusion, voting machine manipulation conspiracy cluster comes back into focus. 

Perfect timing. And who's to say the whole Trump assassination attempt isn't tightly interwoven.

For subscriber's to Robert's Substack he follows that with a great essay that is well worth your time: Harold Robertson's Complex Systems Won’t Survive the Competence Crisis (Published by Palladium Magazine June 1, 2023 [LINK]); it begins: "At a casual glance, the recent cascades of American disasters might seem unrelated."...

The path of least resistance will be the devolution of complex systems and the reduction in the quality of life that entails.

Otiose oppression of oncoming Oval Office occupant...

---

Not late to this just not 'on the blog' and reading a million pieces on the biggest news for ages (and not watching football either)... "Had Trump not turned his head at the last millisecond, the bullet would have gone right through his head.

"Trump Must be Stopped, They Said. Notable are the calls to "stop Trump by any means" that came from the highest level of our political decision-making" [Igor's Substack] 

"Initial media reports included many ridiculous headlines – the worst of them this utter failure by CNN" ("Secret Service rushes Trump off stage after he falls at rally") [eugyppius: a plague chronicle]. 

He also mentions the VARIOUS outlets with an obviously coordinated and insanely ridiculous 'loud noises' headlines [DogeDesigner shows more]. The fact that it was so obviously coordinated after such an event is more sinister IMHO. 

And, mirroring the shite that happens after every Muslim terrorist event (no, obviously NOT saying it was that!) we see the lefty arseholes spouting that the big problem now will be retaliation from the Right [Tim Graham on Twitter on the CBS cunty shit-stirrers] "On CBS, Margaret Brennan and Samantha Vinograd talk up "retaliatory violence" from right-wingers, and then we hear of January 6. Knew this line was coming....". 

And last but not least today's Must Reads form The Naked Emperor: Trump Assassination Attempt Special

The lefty media (most of MSM) and their followers really are complete fucking wankers. Hoping this has decided the POTUS election once and for all. The TDS sufferers must be on Plan F by now.

Plus HTF did this happen anyway? Total and incredible incompetence of the security, or complicity? There are no other alternatives. 

[Update] LOL; trying to show (not hard to do) just how fucking nauseating, and bias, and crap the MSM are; and not even one of the Elon parody accounts:

 

Obtenebrate overview of oncoming oneirodynia...

---

The main bit I did miss out in my last post (well I hope that is a misnomer!), not intentionally nor through any sense of not wanting to tar a certain community, was the rise of the religious faction politically. Yes, that community, and the sad day's anniversary when four 'ordinary British citizens' got excited, is just a coincidence. No, really. 

The Frank Report, as well as a good all round humorous overview of the election, says this:

 

"Least reported (quelle surprise) was the Muslim vote, which has now firmly breached the surface and looks set to disavow its parasitic dependence on Labour. While not quite as influential as predicted, this should worry everyone. Although there is a certain delicious irony watching those who lit the multicultural fuse coming face-to-face with the consequences. Misandrist hags like Jess Phillips, who narrowly held onto her Birmingham Yardley seat after a challenge from a ‘pro-Gaza’ candidate (as I believe the euphemism currently goes)..." ...there's more. 

He's right. This SHOULD worry everyone, but look over there...a squirrel!

Ocracy obiter...

---

Had enough yet? All the banal claptrap spewing from the main stream media? Back in the day I would have written a dozen posts on the UK General Election , now others do it all and much better than yours truly. 

It is also interesting to note that the core of the Substack's I read, completely understand what has just happened. And what didn't happen. The Naked Emperor asks you to Meet the New Boss...The Bad Cat ("the fall of the center right and why you should be glad"), who also quotes eugyppius: "The centre-right is dying a slow death. It is an epochal change for politics across the West." 

All great and informed reads. "The Uniparty is dead, long live the Uniparty". Not bad for a bunch of foreigners ;-) 

And what happened? 

• Lowest combined vote share of Conservatives and Labour for over 100 years. 
• Lowest number of Conservative Party seats won for TWO hundred years. 
• Labour got fewer votes than under Jeremy 'worst result since the 30s' Corbyn in [edit 1800hrs]: 2019 They "won just 33.8% of the vote, far less than Jeremy Corbyn’s 40% when he lost to Theresa May in 2017 and just 1.7% up on Corbyn’s 2019 loss to Boris Johnson." (but 209 more seats: 411 total). 
• Lib Dems (not Liberal or Democrat) got fewer votes than under great-norks Swinson (oooh matron) in 2019 (but 61 more seats: 71 total). 
• Farage (Reform UK) once again, repeating the Brexit party success, got 4 million votes (3rd largest number) but only 4 (FOUR) seats.

Opposition opening...

---

Yes, I am still alive; yes I wish I was blogging more. And yes there will be an opening for some decent U.K. Parliament 'Opposition' soon. It is simply too boring these days to get wound up about the tsunami of shit we are being asked to swallow or at least wade it. Today we can be pretty sure of one thing, Conservatives will be in opposition. 

Anyhoo...I discovered a new website (it may NOT be new, I mean I only just found it): The New Conservative where Alastair MacMillan writes about there being more reasons not to vote for the current shite outfit. In the 'About' page is exactly what I wish 'The Conservative Party' were (who are not conservative, Conservative or even remotely 'right wing'): 

• Government’s first duty to protect the citizenry 
• Unequivocal freedom of speech 
• Border control Fiscal responsibility 
• The state as servant, not master 
• The law applied without fear or favour 
• Low taxes 
• An end to grooming gangs & their cover-ups 
• A robust response to charlatan wokery 
• Economic stability before Green virtue-signalling 

Look at that! Hoorah! I could add a few things - e.g. en end to postal votes except for the previous sensible exemptions [military, disabled...] but what a start, actually being what the blue wing of the Uniparty should be.

Oppressed obedience...

Great article from the bad cat: [LINK] 

how we got to here 

how moral relativism destroyed sanity and how objectivity can bring it back [sic] 

"all this division and vilification and rage farming is coming from somewhere, and it really is new over the last 15 years or so."

"it's an iterative negative sum game where to stay on top, you always need to be "more oppressed than thou" and so it rapidly selects for the most broken, damaged, and bereft people and shunts them to the top by acting as though they are somehow virtuous for being disastrous human failures."

  i mean, how can that possibly end save the calamity of rule by the mentally ill?
