Rest in Peace Chan Yin-lam [陳彥霖 – Chen Yan-Lin] - We Love You!

Hong Kong: What Really Happened to Chan Yin-lam [陳彥霖 – Chen Yan-Lin] -Inquest Verdict Debunks Murder Conspiracy! (3.1.2026)

I have a particular fondness for these people as they rather comical approached me in early 1999 – when I was stood outside a shop in Kowloon that was so “small” I could not fit in it. Two armed Police Constables – in perfect English – asked me what I was doing in a “Chinese” area. It was a good question and I have to admit I was stumped to furnish a convincing answer on the spot – until a Chinese relative appeared and explained in Cantonese that my “ugly” Western appearance “was too big” for the “properly designed and shaped Chinese shops” (I am 6′ 2″ and weigh around 20 stone – so you can see their point). My relative also told me-off for not “bowing my head” out of respect and keeping my eyes looking humbly at the ground – where they belong. One Constable then answered in Cantonese – saying to my relative that “Hong Kong is no longer a British colony and the English should not be allowed to walk around like they own it.” We were let-off with a “Warning” – which I very much appreciated at the time as it was my first offense – and I believe I taught gongfu to one of the sons of the Constables! It was a little bit nerve-whacking, as the Constables authoritatively “fingered” their truncheons during the entire encounter.

New Labour Continues Its Attack Upon the Disabled!

UK: New Labour Attack on Disabled Continues! (5.12.2025)

Meanwhile, DWP’s controversial new anti-fraud bill – now to be known as the Public Authorities (Fraud, Error, and Recovery) Act – has become law after receiving royal assent on Tuesday.

Last month, cross-party MPs warned that ministers’ refusal to introduce a key protection into the bill could see a repeat of the countless deaths caused by the austerity measures of past governments.

And they warned that future “authoritarian” governments could misuse the powers the Labour government has claimed through the bill, which applies to England, Scotland and Wales.

One of those powers will allow DWP to force banks to examine the accounts of claimants of means-tested benefits and then provide details of any accounts where there have been potential breaches of benefit eligibility rules.

Disability Rights UK said it was “deeply concerned” at the “bank spying bill” becoming law.

Trainer Joe Ticle - "Depressed Horse No Laughing Matter!"

Newton Abbot: Joe Tickle Confirms “Name is Real” in Alleged Horse Doping Scandel! (25.11.2025)

“Limiting cross-contamination of medication people can take is a slightly grey area because it’s regarding antidepressants and mental health,” the trainer said. “You can’t stop people taking medication and also people don’t have to declare to you that they are taking medication. You can ask, which we now do, but they don’t have to explain that if they don’t want to, which I fully appreciate.”

Australia Seeks to Ban Teens Use of Internet!

Australia: Study Monitors Impact of World’s First Social Media Ban on Teens! (14.10.2025)

In fact, I was taught “key-boarding” (on manual typewriters) from the late 1970s at school in the UK, and started using electric typewriters and word-processors from the early 1980s. Therefore, developed States have been conditioning their young population since the 1970s to be computer literate and to depend physically and psychologically upon computer technology. Since 2010, touch-screen and ipad technology has moved on and caused a much stronger cementing between young minds and the available technology. This is why I thoroughly disagree with any arbitrary form of Statist “banning” of technology that negatively affects the well-being of young people – who possess no political ability to fight such a ban. Such a ban is cruel, and counter-productive. Indeed, I believe such a ban is a form of child abuse – as when a young person is forcibly separated from their devices – very real psychological and physical pain is experienced.

Science finds the proof of soul leaving the body: This may blow your mind

Debunking the Times of India – and Dr Stuart Hameroff’s “Soul” Pseudo-Science! (2.10.2025)

Science has revealed that “dying” is not as simple as many religions have assumed it to be. An individual can be “brain” dead – whilst the body is otherwise still biologically functioning and in all other ways “healthy”. This is usually the scenario that involves the medical harvesting of healthy organs for transplant into other individuals with medical needs. Obviously, the transplanting process leads to the physical body being legally and lawfully “euthanised” – justified by the now deceased owner having given prior, written consent. Another example is that the brain can be fully functioning and cogent – whilst the body it occupies is either clinically or biologically “dead” (sometimes “both”). In this situation, the body is usually kept alive – through mechanical – means that are “withdrawn” at some point due to the “expense” of its maintaining by the healthcare provider.

A Saturday Morning Trip to the Honey-Shop!

The Galmpton “Honour System” – Walking to the Honey-Shop on a Saturday Morning! (30.8.2025)

Having stayed in Galampton a number of times now – my parent’s house is full of various medical paraphernalia – we noticed a sign (one of many) outside a beautiful brick-work #(chocolate-box) cottage – advertising local honey. Although this sign is a permanent fixture, we were never quite sure if the honey is available all year round – and we did not want to bother the owners. I could just imagine a startled villager as their sedate and isolated cottage is over-ran by a loud South London family – and their two-dogs!
