When the UK was Truly Great!

Gaza: Israel Initiates Desperate Measures Against UK “Economic Sanctions” – Targeting Zionist Colonies! (12.9.2026)

The UK Establishment is running scared of its own working-class population – which looks to be on the brink of voting-in a right-wing government. This is due, in-part, to decades of UK support for Israel and its ongoing genocidal policy – whilst the British masses feels this is wrong. The right-wing is not the answer – but this is where we are. The bourgeoisie will not listen. It has generated this political situation by manipulating the press and the masses in voting to keep far-left parties out of power. Right-wing New Labour does not want to put any sanctions on its chum Israel – it has only done this – because it does not want to lose the next General Election (this will be historically embarrassing considering the majority it possesses). Meanwhile, “Palestinian Action” still remains proscribed and its leading lights rotting in prison. Do not be fooled. I believe this all political theatre. Nothing substantive will happen to the Zionist Project in Gaza. What will sink New Labour are the endless French boats landing on the east coast full of guests from other parts of the world. Even Local Councils are now refusing to land these boats – saying all the hotels are currently full! It is this anti–worker policy that will sink Burnham’s New Labour.

2,800-year-old agora uncovered at Türkiye's ancient city of Troy |

Turkey: 2,800-Yearr-Old Greek “Agora” Unearthed at Ancient Troy Site! (11.9.2026)

Speaking to reporters on Thursday, Reyhan Korpe, deputy head of the excavations, said the discovery proves Troy wasn’t permanently abandoned after the Bronze Age, solving a long-standing puzzle about how the legendary city became the later Greek city of Ilion.

Korpe said the discovery is part of a dedicated research initiative launched in 2014 to map the connection between Bronze Age Troy and the subsequent city of Ilion.

Archaeological findings show that after the civilization collapsed, the site was left empty for only 80-90 years before new settlers arrived. Rather than starting over, they built their homes atop the ancient stone walls and continued using the old public square as an agora.

Shen Elixir

UK: Enriched “Shen” – Sometimes Termed “Elixir” in Daoist Texts! (8.9.2026)

I did manage to write a biographical article about Zhao Ming Wang and get it published in the West – but I have always been battling the anti-China ideology permeating from the US – even from amongst some ethnic Chinese people living abroad. Then there are the “fake” Daoist lineages in the West that are inherently linked to the capitalist system – where they think their “income” equals “authenticity”. Those “who know” in and around the Chinese community simply laugh at this pseudo-Daoism. It is the same with Chinese martial arts (gongfu) – where affluent (fake) teachers link their income to being a genuine lineage. So be it. I have lived in and around the Chinese community for decades – and such a cultural setting has become my (personal) and academic speciality. Practicing the Dao requires full breathing, loosening the belt, and sitting quietly. This has to done properly and all the lessons need to be learned.

The Mind Must Be Calm and Serene!

BMA-UK: Buddhist Practice of “Accepting” & “Rejecting” Food Donations – The Politics of the Buddha’s Begging Bowl! (8.9.2026)

Rules in the Dhammic-sense serve only as basic guides toward moral-behaviour – hence the obvious latitude found in the night-life of places such as Thailand. Obviously, a lay-Buddhist is free to follow whatever path they perceive is correct for themselves and the circumstances they inhabit – after-all – it is their karma-producing habit. One issue is not to inflict suffering on others – including animals (this is why my family will never hurt animals in anyway). Hunger striking, in this sense, only physically “hurts” the individual participating in it – although a case can be made that those watching or caring “from afar” might suffer emotional pain. Of course, in the poor parts of Asia, Buddhist monastics exist whilst eating every other day – as the laity is so poor they have very little to share – but what an effort they make! Although starving themselves, the Buddhist laity will put aside a small amount for the Buddhist monastics. I was told that in the Northern forests of Thailand food is so scarce that Buddhist monastics often sieve a type of algae out of the local rivers – using their begging bowls – and share this to eat.

World Stands in Solidarity with Cuba!

Cuba: Illegal US Embargo Causes Record Economic Losses of Over $8bln! (8.9.2026)

Severely limit the raw materials available – such as that used to produce food, medicine, and energy – and the available resources will soon dry-up. Add this to internal betrayal – those living inside the targetted regimes – and attacks emerge from outside and within. Venezuela is a prime example. I believe the current leader did a deal with Trump and new in advance about the murder of the 32 Cuban bodyguards and Maduro’s kidnap. Her first act was to re-establish diplomatic links with Israel and give Israel oil (I believe “free”) to continue its genocide against Gaza. This was the oil originally given (free) to Cuba. You see the issues. Meanwhile, the far-right candidate that Trump gave the Nobel Peace Prize to (what a piece of shit entity that so-called “Prize” is) – “disappeared” from public view because of this deal (she literally was not required). The hand-over of Venezuela was stage-managed to Cuba’s detriment. How long can Cuba hold-out? The so-called “Socialists” in Venezuela stopped issuing pro-Cuba statements as soon as Maduro was out the country. Today, there is only silence from the new (Trotskyite) regime. I suspect the US will launch a military strike against Cuba and annex the island. Show Trials will then begin – together with intense false propaganda offensives about “how evil” Socialism is! The US-controlled UN will pursue a plan of “doing nothing” and strategically “condemning” as and when it suits them.

The Connection Between Marx-Engel & Buddhism!

Email: BMA (UK) – The Buddhology of Marx and the Development of Historical Materialism! (6.9.2026)

​As you can see from the content of the BMA (UK) website – there are plenty of comparisons to be had between Buddhism and Marxism. This is the correct dialectical position and we must not permit revisionism or Trotskyism to stand in our way. Others have perceived such a connection – but I have spent many years quietly travelling to Buddhist countries, studying the Buddhist texts, sat in meditation, and navigating the labyrinth that is Socialism and Communism. This is a journey we must all go on (in our own way) to develop this pristine view. It is not “religious” – but the result of the stripping away of religion. This has included bypassing all the dialectical errors that have occurred in the understanding and deployment of Marxist Thought throughout the years. There is “no blame” – but merely getting on with what needs to be done.
