UK: The Great Charlie Chuck! (22.5.2026)

22/05/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

When I was young, I worked in a number of factories and wore over-alls. We were all fully Unionised workers. The Social Clubs used to collect fees from its members (small weekly or monthly amounts) which were used to fund the two-week “Works’ Holiday” in August – usually paying fully for a break in a Holiday Camp (all-inclusive). Later, during the 1970s, the Unions (via Social Clubs) would fund flights to Spain (all-inclusive). If any government dared to take away the Welfare State, the NHS, or Social Services – the Unions would threaten to paralyse society through “all-out” General Strikes! Workers would even turn-off the electric to prove their point. All this was destroyed by Thatcher and all of the UK Social Clubs are now gone – with workers wallowing in self-pity and personal greed (open to manipulation by the far-right). How sad it all is. Still, Charlie Chuck has a “Zen-Like” quality about his prose – although many of my international readers may not understand his Northern-drawl.

And he concluded his speech on that historic day with “the infinite satisfaction of having fulfilled one more promise, of having contributed to making possible the well-being of millions of compatriots who have been suffering in neglect and oblivion, and who were the ones who, in ’68, in ’95, and in this latest liberating struggle, made the greatest sacrifices.”

“It was necessary to write, once and for all in our pure lone star, that formula of the Apostle that the homeland was for everyone and for the good of all.”

California: States’ Rights – No Secret Police Act – “Bans” ICE Face-masks! (21.3.2025)

In a statement Saturday, Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin denounced the new laws signed by Newsom as “despicable” and “a flagrant attempt to endanger our officers.”

Legal experts said the measures may offer limited protection to immigrants and will likely face constitutional challenges from the federal government.

Kevin Johnson, an immigration law professor and former dean of the UC Davis School of Law, stated that the legislation may have a marginal impact on federal enforcement operations.

He noted that a 2018 California law restricting immigration arrests at superior court buildings did not stop the Trump administration from detaining people at courts this year.

“The federal government is going to continue doing what it’s doing, in one form or another,” Johnson said. “I do think the legislation gives some hope and optimism to communities that feel under fire, vulnerable and basically hated by the federal government.”

US: Amazon’s Plan to Display Tariff Costs – “Hostile & Political Act” – White House Declares! (30.4.2025)

30/04/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Responding to a report of the planned Amazon move, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Tuesday called the move a “hostile and political act.” She made the remark during a press briefing with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

“Why didn’t Amazon do this when the Biden administration hiked inflation to the highest level in 40 years?” Leavitt asked.

She urged Americans to “buy American.”

Earlier Tuesday, Punchbowl News reported that Amazon intends to display the tariff costs imposed under President Donald Trump’s administration as part of each product’s price.

The Ongoing Saga of the British Workers Betrayed – Let’s Hope King Charles III Overthrows Capitalism! (6.5.2023)

06/05/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

The Bourgeoisie today, oppresses and disempowers the working class that helped it to secure the political power it has enjoyed since 1649 – and openly relates to (and fawns over) the aristocracy it has politically disempowered (but continues to materially empower at the cost of the physical and mental well-being of the workers)! This is where we are today – as a new ‘Pretend’ monarch is about to be ‘Crowned’ – whilst tens of thousands of ordinary British people remain disempowered, dispossessed and in abject poverty. None of this matters, of course, because the ruling Bourgeoisie has decreed that such an injustice is of no ongoing concern! Such is the betrayal of the British workers whose blood gave the Bourgeoisie power and whose labour constructed the palaces and mined the gems that serve as part of the Crown that a man in a dress will lower onto the head of another man in a dress!

China: US-Europe Co-Operation Should Not Target 3rd Parties: FM Spokesperson! (6.12.2022)

The U.S. has introduced the CHIPS and Science Act, engaged its allies in economic bullying against China and sought to decouple from China and cut China off supply chains. The U.S.’s Inflation Reduction Act forces European companies to relocate their production lines to America. All of those are defining examples of economic coercion, she said.

“U.S.-EU cooperation should not target any third party, still less seek to make an issue of China or stoke confrontation,” said Mao.

As major forces in the world, the U.S. and the EU need to demonstrate responsibility and do more things that are conducive to world stability and prosperity, she added.
