Buddha & St Benedict United!

UK: Buddha & St Benedict Entwined – a Retrospect! (10.9.2026)

Now, whilst in Hereford I befriended an Irishman (my family are part Irish) named “Brian Gray” – who was training to be a Catholic Priest. He was fascinated by Buddhism and liked to “spar” with me in gloved-boxing matches (I was a nasty bit of work in my late teens – as I discovered my natural physical strength). He introduced me to a “Father Thomas” the Abbot of the Catholic Hereford Cathedral. He wanted me to go to the Vatican to meet the Pope – and to join the Catholic faith – but of course, this was not my path. I am not attuned to entering these paths that discriminate against non-members for not being members. Also, at that point I was learning about how the Vatican supported fascism before, during, and after WWII. So you can see my predicament. Although I had friendly interactions on the personal level, there were certain political realities that had to be acknowledged and balanced. Anyway, the upshot of all this was that I was introduced to the study of the Rule of St Benedict followed by the monastics of the Catholic Church (and given the ring you can see here – although I am unaware of its significance).

Tyndale: The Man Who Gave God an English Voice

UK: My Review of David Teems’ Tyndale Book! (25.8.2026)

Writers are very good at being both “honest” and “dishonest” in equal measure. No genuine writer will disagree with me – but will instead knowingly puff on their pipe whilst inspecting a duck – or something similar (the mundane is lifted-up by a competent writer). Am I being too harsh on Mr Teems – of course. Yes – I am – and for good class-related reasons. The bourgeois already possess control over the means of production – what more do they want? We are left a) with our “words”, and b) the use of those “words”. My words must penetrate straight through the ideological heart of the matter and I feel that the author’s use of Soviet-era exiles is indicative of his world-view and political bias. And even if it is not – it might as well be.

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.

India: Fascist BJP [Anti-China] Racism Displayed in “Anti-Intellectual” Tome! (13.8.2026)

If this is what these idiots are writing in English – what are they writing in Hindi? These Western “wannaby” Hindu-fascists and Neo-Nazis – about 10% of the Indian population (those that can read and write) – live in gated communities but deceive the illiterate 90% of India into mistakenly thinking that karma is their dharma! No. Being the anti-intellectual lapdog of the US is not a good look (just look at the highly negative attitudes Westerners have to Indian migrants) – but these degenerates are so inverted in their outlook that they are not even aware of just how stupid they look to the rest of the world. Even the ridiculous author of this piece admits (in the last paragraph effectively contradicting his own assertions) – that the Indian Army – (that is the Army of India – his own country) – “denies” any and all allegations he has just made in the body of the article. The reality is that the 90% of illiterate India desperately need a Socialist Revolution to throw-off the yoke of US Imperialism and the utter stupidity of Hindu Nationalism. Meanwhile, the BJP morons better hope and pray that the PLA does not really come over the border and teach the Indians yet another “1962-Style” military lesson once again!

Be Vigilant and Smash Trotakyism!

UK: The Disgusting Statement of the “Palestinian Presidency” Demonstrates Everything Wrong with the Trotskyite-Left! (10.7.2026)

All disgusting examples of “Entryism” – the mechanism the Trotskyites use to infiltrate and destroy Marxist-Leninist groups from within. I am not a supporter of theistic religions as political entities – and I do not support or oppose Iran with regards its actions in Gaza and Lebanon. Once, I used to support the Lebanese Communist Party on this blog until it issued a statement celebrating the other throw of Assad’s Arab Socialism – and referring to the take-over of the country by the US (and Israeli) controlled “ISIS” as the “liberation” of the Syrian people (this was said whilst ISIS was committing mass beheadings of Syrian people who disagreed with their presence)! This demonstrates the problem that exists in these pseudo-Communist Movements which have their ideological roots within the Communist splinter groups of Western Europe (there is a little clique of these splinter-cells that have assumed some kind of “imagined authority” in the post-Soviet space). Why are these “White” Trotskyite Communist groups allowed to ideologically dominate the non-White workers of the world?

The education system is “not set up to serve white working-class children and families”, an independent inquiry has concluded. Picture: Jeff J Mitchell/Getty Images

UK: Education System ‘Not Set Up to Serve White Working-Class Children’! (29.6.2026)

The Independent Inquiry into White Working-Class Educational Outcomes also determined that once-in-a-generation reforms were needed to tackle why such children are the lowest-performing large demographic in England’s school system.

It was commissioned last summer by the multi-academy trust Star Academies, and is supported by the Department for Education.

Inquiry co-chairs Baroness Estelle Morris and Sir Hamid Patel said the issues identified in the report “cannot be explained away by low aspiration or lack of effort”, and cannot be “solved by schools alone”.

Thousands of young people and their parents, as well as hundreds of teachers, were interviewed for the inquiry.

The Education Secretary has welcomed a report into educational outcomes for white working-class boys, saying class remains “a huge driver of outcomes…right across society”.

Bridget Phillipson told Times Radio: “I welcome the report, because I think it shines a really important light on what has been an underdiscussed area for some time in the schools.”

She added: “Class is a huge driver of outcomes, never mind in our politics, but right across society.

“If by class we mean the family that you’re born into determining what you go on to achieve in life, that’s as strong a driver as anything.

“We know that children born into less well-off families are more likely to arrive at school further behind their more affluent peers. We know they don’t make progress across school in closing that gap, and we know they’re more likely at the end of school to go into being not in education, employment, or training.

“So, background, social background, family background, where you’re born, they are big determinants of what you achieve in your life.
