Joseph Rowntree Foundation: UK Poverty 2026: The Essential Guide to Understanding “Deep” Poverty in the UK! (27.1.2026)

Disabled people face a higher risk of poverty. This is driven partly by the additional costs associated with disability and ill-health, and partly by the barriers to work that disabled people face. However, the proportion of disabled working-age adults in work increased from 42% in 2010/11 to 53% in 2023/24, while poverty rates remained steady over that period. In the latest data, there were 17 million disabled people in the UK — that is, 1 in 4 people (24%) — and almost 4 in 10 families contained at least 1 person who was disabled. The poverty rate for disabled people was 28%, 8 percentage points higher than the rate for people who were not disabled. Half of all people who were disabled and living in poverty in the latest data had a long-term, limiting mental condition — around 2.4 million people. The poverty rate for this group was 34%, compared with 28% for people with a physical disability.

US: Ticking Time Bomb as Debt Reaches New High! (8.11.2025)

08/11/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

“The reality is that we’re becoming distressingly numb to our own dysfunction. We fail to pass budgets, we blow past deadlines, we ignore fiscal safeguards, and we haggle over fractions of a budget while leaving the largest drivers untouched. Social Security and Medicare, for example, are just seven years from having their trust funds depleted – and you don’t hear anything from our political leaders on how to avoid such a disaster,” Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget President Maya MacGuineas said in a statement.

The critique lays bare America’s fiscal predicament, that is, political numbness toward systemic failures has become normalized.

While both parties remain deadlocked in partisan disputes over budgetary deals, they persistently avoid addressing the root cause of debt expansion.

The U.S. is stuck in a perpetual cycle of issuing new debt to service existing obligations—a spiral with no exit in sight. This relentless accumulation suggests the national debt bomb is destined to keep growing.

UK: Far-Right Ideology as a “Grooming-Led” Mental Illness! (13.10.2025)

13/10/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

It does not help that British citizens are permitted to travel to Zionist Israel and join the military there to commit genocide in Gaza – or travel to Neo-Nazi Ukraine to fight for the Hitlerite military formations with absolutely no recriminations from the British State. On the other hand, for over a hundred years (since the 1917 Russian Socialist Revolution) the US and its Western European satellites have routinely and continuously demonised Socialism and ridiculed “love” and “compassion” – clearing all opposition to the far-right in the Western mind. This one-sided and conditioning toward the far-right intensified after 1945 and the Red Army’s remarkable victory over Nazi Germany. Being brought up in the era of the US exporting its own particular brand of anti-intellectualism, the youth of the West were erroneously taught that up was down, left was right, back was front – and all kinds of other contradictory falsehoods.

China: People’s Credit Evaluation System Defined! (25.9.2025)

25/09/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Yes – China interfaces with the capitalist West – and generates its own wealth through trade (as Lenin and Mao suggested). To do this, the two respective banking systems, whilst remaining separate and distinct, must possess mechanisms that reflect one another – and enable efficient interaction. As China did not possess an effective credit-rating system prior to 2012 – quite often the dishonesty of feudal times raised its head as people started hunting for profit for profit’s sake – and leaving their fellow citizens behind (an illegal act within the Socialist System). Now, China has a credit-rating system that emphasises honest interaction over dishonest exploitation. Despite the deluded Western imagination inventing all kinds of delirious speculations – encouraging honesty is the only reason for the Chinese credit-rating system.

China: Clarifying the Social Credit Score [“社会信用”] System – An Overview! (25.9.2025)

Cash, by and large, cannot be traced in relatively small, everyday amounts. By taking away this freedom, those who control capitalist society can limit all citizens to digital money on a screen. Every purchase (and every donation) can be seen, moderated, recorded, encouraged, or blocked, etc, by third parties an individual can never see – or directly communicate with. As the China Central Bank is not part of the international banking system – and is not controlled by the capitalists – the Social Credit Score System currently active within China exists to counter the “dishonesty” that the accumulation of profit has propagated within the interior of that thriving (Socialist) country.

Cuba: US Cancel Culture & CIA Lies! (27.7.2023)

27/07/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

Another disturbing fact is that in the UK many of the Trotskyite Unions are openly supporting Cuba whilst their representatives continuously issue US-friendly attacks on China and North Korea! Why is the Cuban cause (which is supported by China) being distanced in the West from China by the very Unions that are willing to pay for advertisements in the Cuban Solidarity Magazines! A side issue is that some of these Unions are also flirting with the far-right and making anti-vax statements! This is NOT the calibre of support that Cuba needs – but as matters stand – perhaps it is the only support Cuba can muster in the current US-dominated climate!
