China: Xi Meets Taoiseach of Eire – Micheal Martin! (6.1.2026)

Both China and Ireland cherish peace, embrace openness and inclusiveness, and strive for self-reliance and progress, Xi said, adding that the Chinese and Irish people won national independence and liberation through struggles and are advancing toward modernization through sustained efforts of successive generations.

Since the establishment of the China-Ireland strategic partnership for mutually beneficial cooperation in 2012, bilateral trade volume has quadrupled, with a balanced development in mutual investment, he noted.

Xi said the two countries should maintain friendly exchanges at multiple levels and across diverse fields, continuously enhance communication and mutual understanding, accommodate each other’s core interests and major concerns, consolidate political mutual trust, and solidify the political foundation of bilateral relations.

Pytheas of Massalia (350-285 BCE)

UK: How Celtic Languages Spread Across Britain & Ireland! (2.1.2026)

I hesitate to “agree” regarding the Ogham script and would like to see the evidence (that it evolves from the Roman alphabet). I have seen Ogham etched along the side of clay tablets (which were then “dried” for preservation) and engraved along the edge of stone tablets (a much more difficult task). As in China, early reading and writing evolved around the ruling families – the kings – and their specially trained advisors. Why write along the edge of things? Romans did not do this. I suppose a case can be made that Ogham might be a development of Roman numerals – but I would like to see the evidence. My parents live in South Devon, and although born in Oxford, I was brought-up in Devon and Cornwall – two of the UK’s Celtic heartlands. I learned Country Dancing at school, and visited museums that contained the Celtic Coracle (round fishing boat). We also learned about the magic of Druidism and how the mighty Boudicca united the Celtic tribes and inflicted terrible defeats on the Roman invaders. I also drink cyder and eat clotted cream. All of this I have imparted to the Chinese members of my family (we take our children all over the Celtic South-West) – just as they have imparted Hakka culture to me. Of course, also possessing Irish ancestry (my father’s mother was from Mullingar) – this confirms the Celtic identity.

Photogrammetry map of Brusselstown Ring showing locations of what may be roundhouse footprints!

Eire: Scientists Unearth Ireland’s Largest Prehistoric Hillfort Settlement! (1.1.2026)

Additional survey work revealed a unique structure near one of the trenches. The flat interior outlined by large stones, uncommon for roundhouses at the site, made it unlikely to be a prehistoric roundhouse itself. From previous surveys, it was known that a stream flowed into the structure from a rocky outcrop uphill.

Given its shape and size, it is hypothesized that this might be a Bronze and Iron Age water cistern like those found elsewhere in Europe. Because Brusselstown Hill would have had to accommodate a large population, a source of freshwater would make sense. If further investigations confirm the structure to be a water cistern, it would represent the first of its kind in an Irish hillfort.

More research is needed to better understand the extent and nature of Brusselstown Hill’s potential water cistern, establishing the nature and chronology of the enclosing elements and better understanding how and why the settlement may have been abandoned.

Man dies after falling from lamppost putting up Union Jack flag... Oh No - Anyway

UK: “He Died as he Lived – Making No Difference to Anything!” (13.12.2025)

Generally speaking, outside of fake patriotism, genuine British people are naturally rebellious and reject any attempt at the current Establishment attempting to force their coloured cloth upon us. The bourgeoisie oppress the workers using the very George Cross (a “foreign” and “imported” flag) and Union Jack (the product of invading other countries by those who control us) – and it is these bits of coloured cloth that an Englishman lost his life trying to (illegally) hoist from a local lamp-post – when he slipped and fell. Ironically, the bourgeoise prefers to brain-wash the working-class so that it voluntarily chooses to “die” for a piece of coloured cloth – in relation to other – opposing – bits of coloured cloth. Whose coloured cloth is superior? Whose coloured cloth is preferable? As the Red Flag derives from a killed worker whose shirt was covered in his blood (this shirt was hoisted onto a stick to serve as a flag) – perhaps this is the only flag the workers should be supporting. Some workers prefer the black flag of Anarchy – but generally speaking, anarchists cannot be trusted.

Eire: Lithuanian Migrant Threatens to Bomb Mosque in Planned Far-Right Terrorist Attack! (17.11.2025)

Mr Storan objected to the video being shown and said it was “manifestly inadmissible”.

Judge Andrew Cody allowed the video to be shown after journalists and members of the public left the courtroom.

Giving his decision, the judge said the video was recovered from a co-accused’s phone and appeared to show four men dressed in black and wearing balaclavas in front of a tricolour.

He said two of the people remove their balaclavas at the end of the video and another person has the balaclava loose around his eyes.

The judge said he was satisfied that gardai’s opinion that Mr Peckauskas is one of the four men was well-founded.

Meet the King of a tribal community living in Scottish woodlands - who claims to be a descendent of the Messiah(Image: SWNS)

Jacobites: ‘Lost African Tribe’ Set-Up Home in Scots Woodlands – Locals Baffled! (21.8.2025)

Their presence has left locals baffled although the tribe claim to live a simple life, bathing in a nearby stream, living in tents, and connecting with nature.

However, they said on Tuesday that they ‘don’t recognise local laws’ and have faced persecution from those who don’t understand their ways.

They have been served eviction notices, and have even suffered an attack on their camp when their tents were set on fire. However, instead of bowing to local law enforcement, they say they only recognise the laws of their God, named Yahowah.

King Atehene, 36, who was previously an opera singer under the name Kofi Offeh, leads the group, which consists of his wife, Queen Nandi, and their handmaiden Asnat. They claim they are a lost tribe of Hebrews, with their King descended from David the Messiah, and say their ancestors were cast out when Elizabeth I deported native black Jacobites.

The group say they live a simple life, and aim to fulfil a prophecy to establish their kingdom and bring other “lost tribes” back into the fold.

King Atehene said: “The prophecy said, after 400 years, when my ancestors are destroyed from the land of Scotland, from the land of Great Britain, they will go into captivity and lose their identity.
