UK: Jury Refuses to Convict Seven Palestine Action Activists Over Elbit Factory Raid! (21.8.2026)

The defendants were accused of assisting or encouraging an action at Elbit Systems’ Filton site in August 2024, during which activists allegedly destroyed equipment, including quadcopter drones.

The court heard none of the defendants were at Elbit during raid but were alleged to have helped to plan it, including by compiling an equipment list, reconnaissance, purchasing tools and weapons used by others, and co-ordinating the break-in and its filming.

Elbit Systems is Israel’s largest weapons company and has faced repeated protests and direct action from Palestine Action over its links to the Israeli military and the war in Gaza.

The Filton 25 are a group of 25 pro-Palestine activists, mainly associated with Palestine Action, who were arrested and prosecuted in connection with an action targeting Elbit Systems‘ weapons facility in Filton, near Bristol.

Four other Filton 25 defendants — Samuel Corner, Leona Kamio, Charlotte Head and Fatema Zainab Rajwani — were sentenced under terrorism legislation following convictions for criminal damage just days before the latest trial began.

UK: Arday – Who Art in Heaven – Hallowed Be Thy Name! (21.8.2026)

I respect Dawn Butler, and have listened to her opinion over the years, but I was forwarded a video of a speech she made at a pro-Arday rally recently, where she firmly mounted the bandwagon and claimed that the act of “unmasking dishonesty” amounted to a “racist attack” – on the grounds that the right supported the exposure. Who cares what the right thinks? It is this kind of flawed logic that permits corruption to become normalised and whistle-blowers to live in fear. If this bourgeois game is all about “equality” – then surely “equality of accountability” is a part of this process? As you can see, the days of a united front between Black and non-Black people has not existed for sometime. Just as long as Black people align themselves with establishmentarian capitalism – then these sociological ruptures are bound to happen. There is no point digging the hole you fall into – and then blaming “Whitey” for inventing the shovel. You are being manipulated by a ruthless class-system. It is designed to make us hate and fight one another. Toughen-up, sort your life out, and get your mind straight.

Police Used to Direct Traffic at Cross-Roads Prior to Traffic-Lights

UK: How the Bourgeois State Uses “Suppression” to Control Society! (20.8.2026)

Herein lies the root contradiction that often leads to a profound shock with many workers suffering PTSD when encountering police officers. And this even before being handcuffed and locked in a cell is experienced. This experience is precisely how a Fascist State operates all the time. The liberals claim their version of society is superior to fascism – but it inflicts a fascist-type law enforcement upon its citizens. This is an interesting contradiction to consider. Liberal democracy possesses very little freedom to chose from in reality – and has the tendency to inflict a fascist-style suppression upon its own population. Should the workers group together and demonstrate solidarity in the face of police oppression – then the Bourgeois State will unleash the military. Whereas the police deprive an individual of freedom (and occasionally of life) – the military always deprives the individual of life. After-all, the bourgeoisie secured its political power by force of arms – and retains its power by force of arms.

DPRK: Trump Cancels “Aggressive” War Games – Decadent ROK Left-Reeling! (20.8.2026)

The ROK cannot let out a single word of protest at the GIs leaving without any mutual coordination at the U.S. chief executive’s unilateral order. This is the inevitable fate of the puppet army, whose right to command has been left in the hands of the U.S., and the true situation of the ROK, whose security has been placed at stake due to a reduction of the joint military drill and who brags about its “enough capability for self-defence” despite its defence and security being under the care of outsiders.

The plight of the ROK, which is compelled to stop the “war games” it liked very much, is visualizing the structure of the relation between master and servant called the “U.S.-ROK blood alliance” of which they have boasted.

Migrants - Do Not Have Sex With Children!

UK: Home Office Instructs Migrants Not to Mistreat Women – Not to Sexually Assault Partners – Not to Have Sex with Children! (20.8.2026)

Hong Kong had double-decker buses and you could tell the British had been there – although I was harassed by the police for being a European in a Chinese area (I went in 1999). Portugal had TV sets with no volume buttons – so that the government could turn the noise down at night. It was the poverty that I saw outside the tourist spots that effected me the most. Holland was perhaps the most laid-back and tolerant country I visited. Labour has no intention of removing the anti-union laws or stopping mass immigration. This leaflet smacks of desperation as Labour faces the threat of being voted-out and a far-right party taking its place. This leaflet is cosmetic. indeed, it comes across as farcical. The far-right portray the issue as the migrants committing crimes against the (White) British – but the migrants (or at least a certain strata of that population) commits crimes against other migrants – whilst crime is also committed against migrants by non-migrants. Migrants are also raped and robbed. It is the concept of the free movement of cheap labour over national borders that is causing all the problems. Now, Burnham has announced that there are “too many” White areas left outside of the major cities that he intends to fill-up with new arrivals. It is stupid statemets like this that leads to mass protests and lost elections.

Cornwall: Vandalised “Village Giraffe Statue” Leaves Locals in Mourning! (19.8.2026)

I once heard a news article on the local “Pirate FM” (when staying in Camelford researching the King Arthur Legend) that five-year-old children were going to school still wearing nappies, unable to say their own names, or feed themselves properly. A shocking state of affairs primarily effecting the local Cornish. Meanwhile, White middle-class English incomers take advantage of this poor economics and buy-up acres of cheap property – using it for holiday homes. The former British Tory Prime Minister – David Cameron – used to spend luxurious hunting holidays in Cornwall – whilst doing absolutely nothing to relieve the grinding poverty suffered by the indigenous population. Still, at least the lady in-charge of the giraffe – possesses the strength of character not to immediately resort to crowd-funding as an answer – as this is a hideous late-capitalist convention that removes a national government’s responsibility toward its tax-paying citizens (as citizens, we pay billions in tax to see it asset-stripped from the NHS and given as free hand-outs to Neo-Nazi Ukraine and Zionist Israel). Furthermore, those who commit criminal acts should pay for the damage they have done.
