Workers of the World Unite!

UK: The Early 1980s Were Great Days – I Worked at the Interpet (Dorking Town) & the RNIB Tape-Recorder (Wallington) Factories! (15.7.2025)

Nowadays, of course, everybody and their cat listens to audiobooks – but this was certainly not the case then – or for many years afterwards (apps have replace all this industry and mechanisation). This all came about due to the system of free universal education the UK had then (Thatcher abolished it in 1988 if you remember). I spent a year or so at a College in the Reigate and Redhill area between 1983-1984 – before relocating to Hereford (all free at the point of us and paid for via collective taxation). In the Wallington factory I was put to work on the assembly line with the man sat to my left explaining my job. He had managed to come through the UK education system and remain totally illiterate (which is a remarkable feat considering the high calibre of State and Private (Public) education in the area – although neuro-diversity was not recognised at the time) – but to his credit he liked Bob Marley (this was interesting as he was White).

kim Jong Un Overseas the Launch of New Destroyer!

DPRK: Speech By Kim Jong Un at Launch of Magnificent KPA Naval – Choe Hyon-Class Destroyer No. 2 – “Kang Kon”! (15.6.2025)

Saying that we can step up the revolution in the warship-building industry in earnest at present as we have a strong will and have secured our own reliable forces and great technical power to guarantee it practically, he clarified the defence strategy of our Party and practical measures for the rapid strengthening of the naval forces, including the building of two destroyers, which are of or above the Choe Hyon class, and the deployment of them in operational waters every year from next year according to the constant view of our Navy that aggression can be prevented when it has the counterattack strength and capability.

The DPRK Defends the 38th Parallel!

DPRK: Kim Myong Chol – Entry into US – No Matter of Interest To US! (13.6.2025)

The U.S., which is the most hostile country to the DPRK and where xenophobia and racial discrimination have been established as a social climate and all sorts of social evils flood, can never be welcomed as the destination of the DPRK citizens’ trip.

Shortly ago, the vice-president, the second-ranking person of the present U.S. administration, denounced a U.S. university for lacking “ideological diversity” and made absurd sophism about the political system of the DPRK. This is another typical example why the DPRK has repugnance for the U.S.

If the present U.S. administration thinks that the DPRK will accept the allowing of the entry into the U.S. as a “gift” which it neither thinks nor wants, it is miscalculation.

It is not the matter of the DPRK’s concern that the U.S. unilaterally makes illegal regulations outside and places the DPRK in them or not. I think that the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea will, in the future, too, not welcome the entry of Americans into it.

Rough sleepers will no longer be criminalised with the repeal of the Vagrancy Act (Yui Mok/PA)

UK: Labour Scrapping [1824] Vagrancy Act in Publicity Stunt – Replacing It With “New Offences” in Crime & Policing Bill! (11.6.2025)

In other words, the Police cannot properly punish the homeless in the modern era under the 1824 Act – and it must be updated and reformed. Labour thinks it can gain some short-term credit for an apparent “humanitarian” act – when in reality all the powers contained in the 1824 Act are being updated and transferred into a reformed Crime and Policing Bill. This change is superficial and will see the Police given far more relevant powers to arrest, persecute, and/or move on the homeless in many more imaginative and creative ways that by-pass all the legal powers that charities currently use to support and protect the homeless, etc. This is a Labour “attack” on homelessness – disguised as “progress” and “improvement”.

Nick Griffin (Left) & Mark Collett (Right) On a Date in Happier Days!

UK: Mark Collett – Subtle Blend of Racism & Stupidity! (3.6.2025)

Mark Collett is the spawn of the political loins of Nick Griffin – the latter being a prime populariser of the far-right in the UK via the “British National Party” (BNP). Nick Griffin groomed Mark Collett and intended to produce a rhetorical clone to take his place as the next leader of the BNP (there are all kinds of rumours going about that Griffin and Collett were involved in a “prison-style” male relationship). Collett was even featured in the Sunday colour-supplements of many mainstream newspapers – laughably presented as the “human-face” of the far-right! Collett is a bit thick though, because when interviewed by Louis Theroux, Collett thought “no one was watching” when he admitted on camera that the Holocaust was “a good idea”. This love affair with Griffin (and the media) all came crashing-down when Nick telephoned the Police begging for help – after he had to lock himself in a cupboard after Collett had threatened to “kill” him! Collett was subsequently expelled from the BNP around 2016 – and was was set lose to roam in the political wilderness – until he suddenly decided to found the grifting (money-making) organisation he terms “Patriotic Alternative”.
