Stuart Boorman has pleaded with Gravesham council to let his family stay on their land

UK: Kent Council Hits “Glitch” Whilst Discriminating Against Local Gypsy Community! (19.2.2026)

On February 12, council planning enforcement officers visited the site and found evidence that the notice had not been complied with.

It is understood that Stuart Boorman and his family are some of the occupants living on the site after they bought part of the land last year.

They applied for permission to station eight mobile homes and two day rooms on a section of the land in August, but it was rejected by the council in December.

It was refused because it was on green belt land, the site lies within the Meopham Downs Landscape Character Area, highway safety risks, and the proposed loss of biodiversity.

However, Mr Boorman told KentOnline he believes they are being discriminated against as they are from the Gypsy and Traveller community.

He explained that after years of moving around the county, living in caravans parked on roadsides, car parks and petrol stations, they had tried to settle permanently and get their children into education.

Speaking previously, the 51-year-old said: “Gravesham council is going above and beyond to remove us all from the land.

“Not only would this make my family homeless, but it would disrupt the children’s education and well-being.

“All we ask is to be treated with the same human rights and dignity as every other British citizen, and to be given the opportunity to live alongside the local community.

“When we finally come together and scrape together the money to buy land to settle on, our plans are rejected.”

Despite this, the local authority is now launching legal proceedings for the alleged breach of planning enforcement.

Mark Hehir, 62, was driving the 206 bus between Wembley and Maida Vale in north-west London in June 2024 when the incident unfolded.

UK: The Mark Hehir Story – How the BBC Manipulates the News Toward Right-Wing Popularism – By Suppressing Narrative-Altering Details! (3.2.3026)

Onething that we can gleam from the operation of Judeo-Christian societies is that “lying” to the masses has its rules (just look at Israel to prove this). Below is three examples of exactly the same story involving a “have a go” bus-driver in London who knocked-out a thief during one of his shifts. This story is legally and regulatory complex – and he was suspended – and then sacked following his loss at two tribunals. As the story gained traction in the mainstream and right-wing press, this “White” bus-driver became something of a celebrity to the far-right (although he is careful not to virtue-signal any personal connection with it himself). Furthermore, as the mainstream media communicates in “code” (whilst attempting not to racially inflame issues) – there is no mention of the ethnicity of the thief – which usually implies he may not be White (hitting a non-White suspect might have influenced the decision to sack the driver). The BBC narrative presented first is the latest version containing much less details (presenting the driver as a misundestood hero) – whilst the second BBC narrative is around five-days old and contains far-more details (explaning that although the self-defence aspect was lawful [just] and legal [within a very narrow context] – the many other contributory aspects definitely were not). This process of “removing” details inverts the usual trajectory of gaining ever-more details and correctly reporting a story in greater detail. The third narrative is from a different news outlet and contains the “full” story from an impartial (non-BBC) news source.

Nazi German Propaganda - British Free Corps

USSR: Foreign Waffen-SS Units Fighting for Nazi German During WWII! (15.11.2025)

After-all, WWII was a war of diametrically opposed ideologies. Even Jews (and Muslims) – amongst many other religious and ethnic groups – served in the Wehrmacht and SS formations. What follows is a full list of Waffen-SS Units that were formally established and recruited members into the Nazi German Army (some individuals, such as the Catholic Irish – did join the Nazi Germans [at the behest of the Vatican] – primarily in unofficial SS formations – or were distributed into other groupings due to time constraints and conditions on the ground). This is a list of SS Units that non-Germans could join (out of the hundreds of thousands of British POWs held during WWII – only “54” dared to join these enemy Units. They were tried and sentenced to death after the war). Furthermore, ethnic Germans born and/or living outside Nazi Germany were permitted to form their own SS Units.

Irish Confederates - "nd Battle of Sabine Pass!

CSA: Second Battle of Sabine Pass [8.9.1863] – The Irish-Confederate “Thermopylae” in Texas! (8.6.2025)

US anti-intellectualism is like a very stupid version of Christian theology that arbitrarily separates the world in a childish “good” and “evil” – with everything “good” being whatever US foreign policy happens to be – and everything “bad” that which opposes it. Since 1945 to present, the US Military has killed 30 million people around the world (in the name of “peace”) – enforcing its ideology of predatory capitalism. Today, President Trump has usurped the power of the State Governor of LA – enacting a post-Civil War law that cedes all State power over its local military to the Federal President – a move designed to prevent resistance to Federal policies and to stop any threat of secession. In this instance, Trump’s overtly “racist” policies are triggering mass protests and uprisings amongst the general population. When the Confederacy lost the Civil War – the States lost their individual freedom and this has allowed a Neo-Nazi President to enact a racist “Federal” reign of terror upon the American people!

Confederate Soldiers Defend - Battle of the Crater

CSA: A Western Theatre Southern “Private” and “General” Discuss Slavery and the Negro Soldiers of the North! (3.6.2025)

Many American Civil War historical narratives give the (false) impression that the Confederacy lost at Gettysburg in 1863 – staggered on with a futile resistance for two-more years – and then surrendered at Appomattox. Nothing could be further from the truth. Tens of thousands of men bravely fought, died and were wounded on both sides between 1863-1865 – with the Confederacy  winning a number of notable victories after Gettysburg. Private Daniel Kelly quoted above, fought in the Confederate Army in the Western Theatre of the Confederacy – as opposed to the far more famous Eastern Theatre (where Gettysburg was situated). Furthermore, Black, Chinese and Native American men fought in the Confederate Army – but their presence is more or less “erased” from history because such a presence tends to lead to inconvenient and even embarrassing questions.

Dead Confederate sharpshooters of Hood's Division among the rocks in Devil's Den in front of Little Round Top.

CSA: Remembering the Bravery of “Irish” Company “K” – 15th Alabama – Little Round-Top [2.7.1863] – Gettysburg! (3.4.2025)

The weather was hot – and the Confederates had to advance over open ground before storming an inclined slope (in the form of a steep hill) – with the intention of sweeping the Federals off its top and consolidating the victory. The previous day had seen the Confederates sweep the Federals out of West and Central Gettysburg – and into the hills to its East. Washington was just 80 miles to the South – and legend has it that Lincoln was packing his belongings to flee! I have audio-typed part of a chapter from Stephen Sears’ book – carefully reproducing the text from an Audible edition (in my native British English). This provides a general background to the battle – but does not mention the Irish specifically – other than one or two fighting for the Union. For the story of “Company K” of the 15th Alabama Regiment of the Confederate States of America (CSA) – we must turn to the excellent work of Phillip Thomas Tucker – who has produced an excellent book examining the contribution to the Confederate cause made by the Irish!
