BBC Remains "Silent" About NHS and Welfare Abolition!

Office for National Statistics: After 40-Year+ Attack on NHS & Welfare State – UK Life-Expectancy Plummets to Under 61-Years Nationally & 51 Regionally! (29.4.2026)

Marx discusses how the life expectancy of the workers in 1850s UK was very low considering the extent of the wealth their collective labour earned for the nation. Through a slow process of left-wing agitation and union activity – this low level (I believe just “40” in some areas) slowly began to rise, culminating in the 1948 founding of the Welfare State and NHS. This trend of improvement and growth continued until Thatcher in the mid-1980s when she switched the NHS from an ethos of “care” to “cost” – with the idea that the entire entity be privatised and transitioned into an exploitative US-style system. This unfolded parallel to the dismantling and reducing of the Benefit System, Social Housing, and effective Social Services – not to mention Elderly Care. All three main UK political parties – the Tories, Labour, and LibDems – have pursued this agenda at the behest of the US since the collapse of the USSR in 1991. Indeed, out of all the richest and advanced (21) most developed countries in the West – the UK lies at “20” with the US at “21” when it comes to all-round life-expectancy. Undiagnosed and untreated illnesses, coupled with untreated or inadequately treated injuries and disabilities have led directly to early deaths (ailments that can be easily cured and/or controlled with proper treatment) – a trend that is increasing. In the capitalist West – people are dying of medical neglect surrounded by hospitals, by starvation surrounded by food, and exposure surrounded by housing, etc. It is a crime against humanity unfolding against the workers perpetuated by the bourgeoisie – who live longer due to their unhindered access to all the resources they control and gate-keep. Revolutions happen due to the need to forcibly re-distribute already existing ample levels of wealth and resources – as the bourgeoisie always refuses to share on a voluntary basis. This is the practice of basic class interests!

The information I was given was a blue and white paddle board, which doesn't help when the sea is blue and white.

UK: Weird News from Scotland – How the RNLI Rescued a Blue Paddle-Board! (15.4.2026)

Mandy urged other paddle boarders to take proper precautions before going out on the water.

She said: “Obviously don’t go dressed like me, try and wear a wetsuit and a lifejacket.

“I had a swimming costume on, a T-shirt and a pair of Crocs. That’s not appropriate.”

The RNLI were called out to 13 paddleboard incidents in Scotland last year and 14 the year before.

Lifeboats in Scotland launched 1,172 times last year and 37 lives were saved. The number of callouts were 10 fewer than in 2024.

Scott said: “You really need to be prepared. Check the tides, the weather, the wind speed.

“Have wetsuits and lifejackets, tell people where you’re going, have a mobile phone.”

The crew said it had been emotional reuniting with the woman whose life they saved.

Scott said: “It was really nice to meet Mandy again, it’s something that doesn’t happen often.”

Mandy said: “I feel so special to have met the crew that saved me.

“I can’t remember what any of them looked like but their voices are very familiar now that I’ve met them.

“They do this unpaid, they are actual heroes.”

Jungle People Adopt Cuban Doctor!

Guatemala: Q’eqchí [Mayan] Jungle People Adopt Cuban Doctor – Yunior Proenza González! (11.4.2026)

Sometimes she has had to walk four hours to get to a consultation, and in that time she has told the trees that what strikes her most about those lands is that many women have no limits to give birth, that they depend on the decision of the husband and that the children arrive without rest. He has succeeded in introducing family planning, convincing mothers of the importance of vaccines and five-year implants, and thus improving the quality of life of these women and their children.

In her sessions as a teacher, she teaches nurses to look patiently. He talks to them about vaccination, prevention, care, habits and hygiene like someone who sows invisible seeds in a land that has learned to resist without complaint.

That was why one day the children began to wait for him as one expects a returning relative, the mothers learned to trust his hands and the elderly to greet him with respect.

Now, as evening falls, the rivers have begun to worry about the moment when Dr. Yunior will leave these lands.

A Family of Enlightened Hillbillies!

UK: My Father’s Email of Light! (9.4.2026)

My father – Peter Wyles (Moses Waveman) – is currently in a pickle, but it is happening to millions of elderly across the UK as the incumbent Labour Party is busy privatising the NHS and the Elderly Care System. NHS staff and Social Services (SS) staff all collude with this deficient treatment so that it becomes “legal” to provide inadequate and abusive care to the nation’s elderly. Labour also orders the police to telephone (and intimidate) any family member who complains online about the terrible treatment that is happening to their elderly relatives. I know this because it has happened to some one I know. What a disgrace the UK has become. The NHS and SS workers should be on the side of the working class that pays their wages through collective taxation. Still, no matter what happens – we will fight to the end!

China: The Origins of Complex Life Pushed Back to Before the Cambrian! (6.4.2026)

Associate Professor Fan Wei, a leader of the group, says, “After years of fieldwork, we finally found several sites with the right conditions where animal fossils are preserved together with abundant algae.”

Unlike most Ediacaran sites, where organisms are preserved as impressions in sandstone, the Jianchuan fossils are preserved as thin carbon-rich films. This is type of preservation is more typical of famous Cambrian sites such as the Burgess Shale in Canada.

This exceptional preservation reveals anatomical details rarely seen in Ediacaran fossils, including feeding structures, digestive systems and organs used for movement.

Associate Professor Ross Anderson, a co-author of the study from the Oxford Universities Museum of Natural History, says, “Our results indicate that the apparent absence of these complex animal groups from other Ediacaran sites may reflect differences in preservation rather than true biological absence.”

“Carbonaceous compressions like those at Jiangchuan are rare in rocks of this age, meaning that similar communities may simply not have been preserved elsewhere.”

Thank You Joseph Stalin - We Love You!

UK: Uncle Joe Says “It’s Mother’s Day in the Country That Invented It!” (15.3.2026)

Either way – Gee has been the mother to of my children – both wonderful girls. I think the rest of the world follows a UN-designated “Mother’s Day” – and for some reason the old UK tradition is ignored by the world – like Morris Dancing and jousting. Gee had the idea of placing an old statue of Joseph Stalin in shot – an icon from the USSR that was sent to use by Comrades who were trying to preserve the evidence of the Workers’ State as the forces of Trotskyism and capitalism was ripping it apart during the late 1980s. Despite Khrushchev’s betrayal of Stalin in 1956 – many in the USSR still respected him and kept these small statues hidden away from prying eyes. It is interesting how the capacity to exercise rational thought raises an individual into a genuine human-being – extracting their minds and bodies from a deluded, inverted, and backward past! And so be it – until there is no more capitalism to overcome!
