UK: I Once Ran a Half-Marathon over 1 Hr 40 Mins [13.25 Miles] in Hereford During the 1980s – and Neither of My Legs Were Broken! (8.8.2026)

I was born in Oxford (Hitler bombed my mother’s family out of working-class Lewisham in 1940) – and I love the history and “learning” associated with the place (I can walk around with a book about Marx on open display and no one bats an eyelid). I did attend Oxford – but I paid to do so – as I could not attain a place due to my own limitations when I was young. It just so happened that my intellectual abilities matured at the same time when I experienced a decade of wealth. Although Oxford does discriminate, I “paid” to access a “Philosophy of Mind” course – which I passed despite not fitting-in (I was in my late 30s at the time and was surrounded by BBC executives, Guardian Reporters, and UN employees – but my family was proud). However, I was told a story of a young woman who was born into a poor working-class family and brought-up on a housing estate.

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.

Shin Sang-ok Choi & Eun-hee - Defection or Kidnap?

DPRK: Assessing the Bizarre “Kidnap” Stories Aimed At Korea! (14.6.2026)

Whatever the case, and I definitely do not condone kidnapping of any kind, it is recorded that Interpol investigated these allegations and declared that there were no such undertakings – in other words – North Korea had not kidnapped anyone. Despite this finding, stories, films, documentaries, and journals not only repeat these stories – supposedly offering evidence – but also expand the operations of this tiny half-country to supposedly include kidnapping people from Romania (a Socialist country) and even Lebanon. I once saw a BBC documentary that filmed Japanese women in Korea being transported back to Japan – supposedly after kidnap. I later discovered this was nothing of the sort. These were descendants of Japanese invaders who were looked after by Koreans when the Imperial Japanese Army fled the liberating Soviet Red Army at the end of WWII – leaving their babies and children behind. This demonstrates just how dangerous the lying bourgeois mind is. After-all, the same deranged mind-set permitted the “Black and White Minstrel Show” to be broadcast on the BBC between 1957-1978 – supposedly in support of Black rights and diversity.

How Do Magnets Works?

US: Public Access – “How Do Magnets Work?” (4.6.2026)

. The USSR had a free book-publishing system that permitted any citizen to use to write, publish, and read a book entirely at the government’s expense. This was introduced early in the history of the USSR and effectively broke the monopoly once enjoyed by the profit-seeking publisher. In the US, citizens were permitted to access TV broadcasting frequencies – either free or at very little expense – which allowed locally made TV programmes to be shown to whoever wanted to watch them outside of the commercially-controlled mainstream system – as no official or corporate advertising was permitted on Public Access. Above, we see a Christian Preacher asked by a random caller “How Do Magnets Work?” This is one of the funniest – and yet poignant questions I have ever heard. Beautiful spamming in the US even prior to the internet.

The Olde Sweet Shoppe - Kingston-Upon-Thames - Londn!

Kingston: Xmas Joy – Gee’s Birthday & Big Game – All on the High Street! (6.12.2025)

The greedy amongst us could still exercise “individualism” – whilst the workers sought a collective path to inner and outer freedom. Oh, how lucky we were! We all thought a Socialist Revolution was just around the corner and the UK would become a Soviet State! Then, the ogre of Thatcherism hove into view and hit us hard – and the workers lost all the hard-earned gains made with our blood toil before and during WWIi! Our children listen and ingest this deep meaning. Today, the Olde Sweet Shoppe is owned by an Asian family – but the male owner treated me with respect – and in so doing – he earned my respect. As an Englishman, I thanked him for treating my family with respect and politeness. Unlike the fascist, I don’t particularly care about who takes my money and processes my order. I wamt to transform the process away from exploitation – and not harm those who are active within it. There are many “White” English who are as ignorant as sh’t out there! They do not get a Free Pass from me just because they happen to have been born “English”. English people should behave to a higher standard – not lower.

Lest We Forget!

UK: Remembering the 1917 Russian Socialist Revolution & Supporting Venezuela! (8.9.2025)

Even after taking into account all the anti-worker policies perpetuated by the bourgeoisie – I have got to say that many in this new generation are nothing but selfish, self-hating, pampered, and self-indulgent scum. Yes – the scum of the earth – but without the balls ever to do anything to rectify the mess they represent. There is no equivalent of the French Foreign Legion for these deficients – because its “foreign” – and they do not like foreign things. This degenerate scum could not discipline themselves even if their lives depended upon it. There’s no point conscripting these morons as they would weaken any national army. These degenerates would simply look messy when they fall down in a disorganised heap – blaming everyone else for the problems they themselves are creating.
