UK: Yorkshire Puddings Are Made of It – Dead Fish Are Covered in It – On Why the MCC is “Wrong”!

My Dad learned cricket from the rich-boys who played on pristine pitches in the overwise bombed-out city of Leicester. These were Grammar School (posh) boys and my Dad was definitely not allowed to play. He was from an averagely poor working-class background. What he did was cleverly make himself useful to these privileged fools – so that they would slowly let him into a little bit of their affluent world. This is how he learned to play cricket. Many years later, when I was a child, the BBC would screen six-hours of cricket on a Sunday – I think BBC 2 – and my Dad would explain the game to me. This is how I learned to understand the rules of cricket. My Dad went on to found Tiverton Cricket Club as a player-manager – and I used to go with him as a child to roll the pitch a day before each match. On occasion, I would be at the game – mingling with the players – as I was young – I did not grasp “opposing sides” thing too well.

UK: Xia Leon [Asteryth] Sloane – “Award-Winning” British Composer Dies at 26! (24.7.2026)

I’m a person-centred therapist with particular interest and experience in working with survivors of abuse and complex trauma. I believe that therapeutic work is revolutionary in the ways it can go against the grain of the violence and brutality of past and present experiences in both personal and global contexts. As a queer, autistic, blind person, it’s especially important to me to hold curious, authentic, and anti-oppressive spaces for all who come to my practice.

Mexico: Schools for Chiapas – What Football Has United – Let No State Divide! (16.7.2026)

As the count of disappeared already surpasses 133,000, in a show of the Mexican state’s indifference, current President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo mocked, questioned, and criminalized these families’ struggle, at press conferences accusing some of these collectives of receiving funding and answering to the interests of opposition political parties.

While there is no exact figure, organizations like Amnesty International cite more than 200 collectives across the country. In this context, alleging that the movement has been co-opted functions less as fact and more as a vile tactic of delegitimization. President Sheinbaum Pardo seeks to mask a painful reality with the supposed joy that comes from soccer as a capitalist spectacle.

The sheer scope of the violence behind the disappearance crisis can be seen in the range of its victims — among them civilians disappeared by the military alongside members of the armed forces themselves; people presumably linked to the criminal economy, and many more who simply refused to pay extortion fees. “Collateral damage,” a former president once called it. All are searched for equally; no disappearance is justified, and no one deserves to disappear.

Cuba: XIX Day Against Homophobia & Transphobia! (14.5.2026)

As for homosexuality – the USSR seems to have had a mixed attitude toward it. Lenin abolished the old Czarist law and the blatant homophobic element demanded by the Orthodox Church – but then a few years later a law preventing men sexually abusing boys was passed (the first anti-paedophile law in the world) which appeared to suggest that homosexuality (of any type) was unnatural (although only involving males). Extract from that what you will. I think that sexual attitudes and concepts of gender identity vary considerably from one non-White country to another – so we must be careful not to project a rigid Eurocentrism onto the subject. China is an interesting case in point – where many indigenous attitudes might be surprising to the average Westerner. On the other hand, if I see gays or trans committing outrageous crimes – I think this needs to be highlighted. This is true regardless as to “why” they might be committing said crimes (as some of these crimes are so horrific there can be no justification). Cuba is a mixture of White and non-White (indigenous) cultures and this will iinfluence how they perceive the gay issue.

US: Black Lion Party for International Solidarity! (22.3.2026)

However, I think the above video is very interesting from a sociological perspective. We are not permitted to own guns in the UK – but the police can shoot us dead if they feel the need. So be it. What we need to do is organise ourselves to a greater degree. We need to be clever and play cerebral chess with the capitalists. We must defend ourselves when the time is right. As a Chinese martial artist – I have had hundreds of fights in my life – using bare-hands and feet. Fighting is also about a superior position of the mind in the body – and about the body in the environment. Anything is possible. Watch this video and learn from it. As a Maoist and Stalinist – I am an “Internationalist” – even though the bourgeoisie will use all kinds of derisive tactics to keep us apart, and fight one another. The bourgeoisie will privilege one group over another to maintain the violence – this is how Reform UK is gaining political ground. These derisive tactics have to stop – so that the injustice that prevents “Internationalism” is removed. This barrier between migrants and indigenous people must be removed – so that aggression is replaced with compassion.

Israel: Zionism – Child Abuse & Misogyny! (10. 3.2026)

11/03/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Through fulfilling all kinds of sexual perversions for the rich and powerful (and filming these indiscretions) – the Zionist State established a portfolio of influence throughout every Western country. The basic Mossad mantra was “Do as we say or the Press gets the video of you and the little boy.” On a related note – there are Zionist pornography sites on the net which depict Jewish women being beaten before engaging in apparent concential sexual activity (these sites are usually pay-walled and for Jews only).
