UK: Winchester Residents Attempt to “Ban” GAIL’s [Pro-Israeli] Bakery! (16.8.2026)

Sponsored by Palestine Solidarity Winchester, the petition also attacks GAIL’s majority owner, Bain Capital, which it describes as a “vocal supporter of Israel” with investments in Israeli technology and cyber-security firms.

Two public objections have been lodged with the city council over GAIL’s planning proposals.

A spokesperson from Winchester City Council said: “The use of the building as a bakery doesn’t require planning permission, as the previous use and planned use are both classed as retail shops.

“The Council has received applications for the installation of signage and for alterations to a listed building which relate to the use of the building, and these are under consideration.”

India: Fascist BJP [Anti-China] Racism Displayed in “Anti-Intellectual” Tome! (13.8.2026)

13/08/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

If this is what these idiots are writing in English – what are they writing in Hindi? These Western “wannaby” Hindu-fascists and Neo-Nazis – about 10% of the Indian population (those that can read and write) – live in gated communities but deceive the illiterate 90% of India into mistakenly thinking that karma is their dharma! No. Being the anti-intellectual lapdog of the US is not a good look (just look at the highly negative attitudes Westerners have to Indian migrants) – but these degenerates are so inverted in their outlook that they are not even aware of just how stupid they look to the rest of the world. Even the ridiculous author of this piece admits (in the last paragraph effectively contradicting his own assertions) – that the Indian Army – (that is the Army of India – his own country) – “denies” any and all allegations he has just made in the body of the article. The reality is that the 90% of illiterate India desperately need a Socialist Revolution to throw-off the yoke of US Imperialism and the utter stupidity of Hindu Nationalism. Meanwhile, the BJP morons better hope and pray that the PLA does not really come over the border and teach the Indians yet another “1962-Style” military lesson once again!

Meyvis stressed that Fidel left everyone the teaching that youth is not a passing stage, and that dignity is not negotiable. "We have to be consistent with Fidel," said the young Cuban, who, among other beautiful ideas, expressed: "May the eternal young rebel of the Revolution always accompany us."

Young people with physical and visual impairments will have greater opportunities to participate in sport through the expansion of the ISPORT programme into ISPORT+.

Malta: ISPORT+ EXPANDS OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUNG PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES! (12.8.2026)

12/08/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The initiative, launched four years ago through a collaboration between The Malta Trust Foundation and the Malta Paralympic Committee, initially focused on children with visual impairments. Under a renewed partnership, ISPORT+ will now broaden its sporting and coaching opportunities to include young people with physical disabilities.

Marie-Louise Coleiro Preca, founder and chair of The Malta Trust Foundation, said the aim was to reach as many children and young people as possible and help them discover their potential through sport. She highlighted the confidence, happiness and sense of achievement gained by participants over the past four years.

UK: Should Cambridge University Investigate Rupert Sheldrake? (12.8.2026)

12/08/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The Buddha does not contain ALL knowledge as if it were lying dormant in his mind at any given moment (therefore he is not “omniscient” in this sense) but he does say that an enlightened being can direct the mind in any direction he or she wishes (like a net enveloping and collecting all things) throughout the world, and in so doing bring any part of it into his enlightened conscious awareness. This lasts for as long as concentration is held in that direction and then fails away – remember that the true nature of the mind is “empty” and spacious – so that all phenomena seems to arise and pass away within it. In fact the Buddha states a long list of abilities and powers he possesses – including the ability for his mind’s awareness to travel to other worlds. What happened over-time is that through various commentaries and translations, the fact that the Buddha could move his mind’s awareness in any direction (or none) became conflated with the idea that his mind’s awareness was already in every place and at every time.

The Estate Agents is Called "Progressive" in North Bergen!

UK: North Bergen – New Jersey [USA] – London Calling! (11.8.2026)

11/08/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

I suppose as I write predominantly in “English” it is inevitable that a US audience will be attracted – if not only out of curiously – rather than any great political engagement. Surely, it would be logical to think this (of course, I exclude my progressive US readership from this assessment). Imagine my surprise when I saw that around half of the 900 or so hits my blog attracts (each week) in the US is from a single city – namely “North Bergen” in New Jersey. The name is either Dutch or Scandinavian – but the British once ruled this area. I have been reading about ths place as quite frankly I am astonished that my output would be of any interest to the average American – let alone in a single city. It could be a fluke and I am reading too much into it – but I am grateful for every read and click my work attracts – whether the content is liked or not. So, to those people of “North Bergen” who I will never meet or personally know – I thank you for the “click” – even if it was in error. Thank you for giving me something “new” to research. Thank you for sharing this path through my words!
