York Watergate - 1626 - Victoria Embankment!

UK: Beautiful London – the York Watergate Our Children Have Played Around! (7.7.2025)

The gate was originally the private riverside entrance to York House, a grand 17th-century mansion owned by the Duke of Buckingham. Think of it as a luxurious mooring point at the bottom of the duke’s garden.

York House itself stood on the Strand, which name literally means ‘shore of the river,’ and was considered one of the finest residences in London. At the time, much of the south side of the Strand was lined with palaces boasting direct access to the Thames.

That all changed with the construction of the Thames Embankment between 1864 and 1870, led by visionary engineer Sir Joseph Bazalgette. The massive project reclaimed land from the river and shifted the shoreline dramatically forward.

You can find a memorial honouring Sir Joseph Bazalgette just a couple of minutes away from Embankment Gardens, by the Thames. He designed the Victoria, Albert and Chelsea Embankments, reclaiming a strip of land in front of Somerset House and York Watergate.

The Watergate was almost lost during this transformation – plans were even drawn up to move it to nearby Whitehall Gardens. But in the end, it was simply abandoned where it stood, left behind as a relic of a river that had retreated.

UK: Labour Party Issues Official “Everybody Happy” Signs! (15.4.2025)

Everything is directed toward the sustaining and strengthening the selfish individualism of predatory capitalism – whilst perfecting the avoidance and suppression of the collective selflessness that represents Socialism. As the current Labour Party takes away our jobs, homes, welfare, medical care, elderly care, culture, identity, and education – we are brainwashed to think that our suffering is in fact our “HAPPINESS” – and if we dare to rebel, to defy our own demise, then a Judge will imprison us for carrying a Red Flag in public, or standing in a street during a process. A land fit for heroes indeed!

The Self-Contained Psychology of the Far-Right! (2.8.2023)

Fascism is the fulfilment of a certain type of ‘Bourgeoisie’ political ideology and is very difficult to dislodge. Whereas the ‘Proletariat’ represents a complete transformation of society – ‘fascism’ is nothing but a completion of a certain vision of the ‘Bourgeoisie’. Therefore, the ‘fascists’ and the ‘Bourgeoisie’ always work together hand-in-hand – and conspire to prevent the ‘Proletariat’ (working-class) from taking power anywhere in the world. Together, these two expressions of the ‘Bourgeoisie’ prevent the means of production from reverting back into the hands of the ‘Aristocracy’ or progressing forward into the hands of the ‘Proletariat’. Fascism, therefore, is a ‘reflection’ of the ‘Bourgeoisie’. A ‘mythic’ reality that advocates a misnomer. The far-right is merely a dark-corner of the Bourgeoisie – and nothing else – as both are essentially anti-working-class. Just as long as the Bourgeoisie can keep the political focus firmly upon the horizontal plane – then no genuine Revolution can take place on the vertical plane.

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

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!

UK: On Why the Queen Does Not Own Anything! (18.2.2025)

The very concept of the royal family is parasitic and out of date. Although entities such as the Police and the Military pledge an oath to the Queen – each institution is in fact ‘legally’ bound to be loyal first and foremost to the Bourgeois State and the elected Parliament that administers that State! Whilst the British right-wing begrudges the British working-class possessing a Welfare State and NHS that itself-finances through collective taxation – it is perfectly willing to usurp the tax revenue collected from the working-class to finance the parasitic lifestyles of the royal family which quite often involves immoral or illegal activity for which no members of the royal family are punished in any way! What modern people must remember in the UK is that the contemporary royal family works for us – and we do not, as a nation – work for it! Furthermore, the Queen possesses NO political power and we are NOT subject to her Majesty’s whims, beck or call! The contemporary royal family is an anachronism that should be abolished with all the royal palaces turned into schools, hospitals, museums and freely accessible public spaces.
