UK: Burnham’s Labour Continues “Stealth Shutting-Down” of Socialist NHS – as Prostrate Cancer Treatment Cut! (15.8.2026)

15/08/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The shutting-down of a “free at use” NHS requires the New Labour government to keep encouraging the importation of migrant labour – whilst simultaneously bleating-on in Parliament that it is trying to “do something about it”. Do you know, I was part of the “LEXIT” (hard-left) “left Out of the EU” campaign for precisely this reason. Many unions backed LEXIT as did many non-White British workers – as this is NOT about race – but ALL workers’ rights! In many meetings I saw, non-White (British) workers gave speeches about how unfamiliar foreign communities had sprung-up, took-over areas, and aggressively competed for housing and work. Why? Just so our Socialist system can be dismantled and sold to the US? I met some of these new arrivals and by and large they were good people – the victims of post-1991 (Soviet-collapse) capitalism (the US again). Most told me that life was good under the Soviet system – but now it was terrible under capitalism. The US has injected far-right ideology into Eastern Europe to prevent what it fears will be a resurgence of Soviet Socialism. We should be “comrades” and not “competitors”! Without properly funded and empowered unions all over Europe (the EU must go) – the workers are reduced to scrambling individuals fighting desperately for scraps from the master’s table.

The UK government should be giving Socialist Rights “back” to the indigenous population – but far-right groups – like Reform UK – want to take away ALL Socialism from every person in the UK. This is Hitlerism and will lead to a greater tension and violence between the UK’s ethnic groups. Capitalist market forces causes crime. Crime will always exist within the exploitative capitalist system. If capitalism “stops” – then crime will be dramatically reduced. Poor people of any ethnicity can be driven to commit crime out of desperation. Even in a perfect Socialist System – inner genetic conditions can still direct behaviour toward the criminal activity without – for no material reason – but this will be a small percentage that can be compassionately handled by a progressive State. Internationalism recognises differences and balances those differences with justice – but nationalist-driven migration is premised upon inequality and favouritism. Bourgeois governments “force” their respective populations to “like” and “assist” those groups and political leanings we find aberrant. Marx advises that we should question everything.

South Africa: G20 Report Warning of Global Inequality Crisis Unveiled! (6.11.2025)

Drawing on data from the World Inequality Lab, the analysis showed that the world’s richest one percent have increased their average wealth by 1.3 million U.S. dollars since 2000, while the poorest 50 percent gained only 585 U.S. dollars, adjusted for inflation. Though income gaps between individuals have narrowed largely due to growth in China, the wealth divide between the Global North and South remains substantial.

“The world understands that we have a climate emergency; it is time we recognized that we face an inequality emergency too,” said Stiglitz, who chaired the six-member committee behind the report.

Much of the wealth at the top stems from “monopoly power and exploitation,” he said, adding that inequality is “not the laws of nature, but the laws of man.”

Fake Beggars Punished - Read Beggars Rewarded!

Major parts of the collected beggars were fake and professional, the official told the state-owned media outlet, and saying the police after investigation have allocated a monthly allowance to the needy one and referred the professional beggars to the concerned entities for further investigation.

The Afghan caretaker government, according to the official, is committed to fighting the culture of begging as part of efforts to keep the society clean.

UK: Bleak Poverty Statistics “Wearily Familiar” – Joseph Rowntree Foundation! (6.2.2025)

Larger families with three or more children have consistently faced a higher rate of poverty, it says: 45 per cent of children in large families were in poverty in 2022/23. Disabled people, carers, renters, people claiming benefits, and people in workless households were also at a disproportionately higher risk of poverty.

More recent figures were equally bleak, owing to the continued affects of the cost-of-living crisis. In October 2024, about 2.6 million of the poorest fifth of households (44 per cent) were in arrears with their household bills or behind on scheduled lending repayments; 4.1 million households (69 per cent) were going without essentials; and 3.2 million households (54 per cent) cut back on food or went hungry.

US: “Anti-China Week” Exposes US Weakness in Addressing its Own Issues! (17.9.2024)

17/09/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

In this era of globalization, China and the United States are deeply intertwined, particularly in economic and trade sectors, but badmouthing China won’t help to solve U.S. problems. On the contrary, decoupling will cripple industries, drive up prices for American consumers, and weaken the United States’ competitive edge in innovation. Semiconductor shortages, disrupted supply chains, and inflationary pressures are just a glimpse of what decoupling would bring. Moreover, isolating the U.S. market from China’s electric vehicles won’t help with the green transition in America.

Washington’s China policy, guided by a self-contradicting doctrine and an outdated superpower ego, is running fast in the wrong direction. It reflects a profound misunderstanding of the interconnected nature of the most important bilateral ties in the world, and could ultimately miss a golden opportunity for cooperation that benefits both nations and the globe at large.
