Hong Kong: What Really Happened to Chan Yin-lam [陳彥霖 – Chen Yan-Lin] -Inquest Verdict Debunks Murder Conspiracy! (3.1.2026)

I have a particular fondness for these people as they rather comical approached me in early 1999 – when I was stood outside a shop in Kowloon that was so “small” I could not fit in it. Two armed Police Constables – in perfect English – asked me what I was doing in a “Chinese” area. It was a good question and I have to admit I was stumped to furnish a convincing answer on the spot – until a Chinese relative appeared and explained in Cantonese that my “ugly” Western appearance “was too big” for the “properly designed and shaped Chinese shops” (I am 6′ 2″ and weigh around 20 stone – so you can see their point). My relative also told me-off for not “bowing my head” out of respect and keeping my eyes looking humbly at the ground – where they belong. One Constable then answered in Cantonese – saying to my relative that “Hong Kong is no longer a British colony and the English should not be allowed to walk around like they own it.” We were let-off with a “Warning” – which I very much appreciated at the time as it was my first offense – and I believe I taught gongfu to one of the sons of the Constables! It was a little bit nerve-whacking, as the Constables authoritatively “fingered” their truncheons during the entire encounter.

Muslim Extremist Wins Massive Payout!

UK: Convicted Extremist Murderer Wins £237,500 in “Human Rights” Ruling! (2.1.2026)

And the Establishment wonders “why” over 150,000 far-right thugs are congregating outside Migrant Hotels, Migration Hostels, and Migration Centres, attracting vast swathes of political support from ordinary people who hold political views of a lesser bias. Not only is the media continuously printing a daily tally of crime (usually “sexual”) committed by migrants in the UK – but it is purposely ignoring (and omitting) all similar crime committed by “White” people (including “White” migrants – usually Ukrainian and Polish, etc). The news – like the structure of UK society – is being deliberately “engineered” by the ruling bourgeoisie. A continuous and brutal “Austerity” and withdrawal of all Socialist support for the indigenous population – and the ladling-out of the most lavish and opulent care and support for random groups of incomers – designed to water-down the work-force. We are importing selfish individuals – not collective-minded proletariats – and that is exactly what the bourgeois intend and want. The UK is being transitioned into a US State where the workers possess no rights and are paid so little by their employers – that the customer is expected to “tip” (to supplement their meagre wages) – something that used to viewed as vulgar in the UK before the rapid spread of US-owned businesses.

UK: How Celtic Languages Spread Across Britain & Ireland! (2.1.2026)

I hesitate to “agree” regarding the Ogham script and would like to see the evidence (that it evolves from the Roman alphabet). I have seen Ogham etched along the side of clay tablets (which were then “dried” for preservation) and engraved along the edge of stone tablets (a much more difficult task). As in China, early reading and writing evolved around the ruling families – the kings – and their specially trained advisors. Why write along the edge of things? Romans did not do this. I suppose a case can be made that Ogham might be a development of Roman numerals – but I would like to see the evidence. My parents live in South Devon, and although born in Oxford, I was brought-up in Devon and Cornwall – two of the UK’s Celtic heartlands. I learned Country Dancing at school, and visited museums that contained the Celtic Coracle (round fishing boat). We also learned about the magic of Druidism and how the mighty Boudicca united the Celtic tribes and inflicted terrible defeats on the Roman invaders. I also drink cyder and eat clotted cream. All of this I have imparted to the Chinese members of my family (we take our children all over the Celtic South-West) – just as they have imparted Hakka culture to me. Of course, also possessing Irish ancestry (my father’s mother was from Mullingar) – this confirms the Celtic identity.

US: Americans Know Where a Privatised NHS is Leading! (2.1.2026)

The Americans have only got themselves to blame (I exclude my US comrades who are ill and injured – if it were up to me – you would receive free healthcare NOW) – but we in the UK possess a working-class which fought a brutal World War to put an end to health poverty. Now, my US relatives (yes – they exist) – used to come to the UK to receive “free” healthcare until one of the UK governments put an end to that perk (my father’s sister married a US soldier stationed in the UK – and went to live in Seattle). Now, when a health issue hits, they have to sell a plot of land to raise the funds to pay for operations and treatments. However, just as in the UK – with a restricted NHS – we have to endure various health issues just because there is no money. We literally “save-up” our illnesses until we can no longer take the pain – or the malady becomes life-threatening. Even then, for many there is no avenue of treatment available. As usual, the workers carry-out all the labour, produce all the profit, and receive very little of the earned benefits. We die of starvation surround by an ocean of food, we freeze surrounded by endless houses, and we die of medical neglect surrounded by first-world hospitals stacked with the most advanced drugs and trained experts. Trained experts that receive huge salaries from the very workers they refuse to treat – due to (fascistic) governmental dogma!
