UK: The Anatomy of Destroying a Once Great Health Service – the Tories, LibDems & Labour Have Blood on Their Hands! (16.9.2026)

As I live in the UK – there are certain realities regarding this case (which is far from uncommon) which if I state in writing – I risk being contacted by the police, warned, arrested, charged, and imprisoned. Draconian measures practiced by desperate governments do not change material facts. If you know me, you know I have no malice in my heart – and you know whose side I am on. However, as I have an insight into the internal workings of a collapsing NHS – I know exactly what is happening. Unqualified “guests” are being invited to take posts in the NHS that are the product of “deskilling” – or the deliberate government policy of replacing university-educated medical staff with uneducated and unqualified friends from abroad. Labour has continued the shut-down of the NHS – so do not look for any solace there. Ten unqualified “guests” are supposed to controlled by one qualified staff member – but this is seldom the reality on the ground. As I suspect this story will disappear down the memory-hole – I have reproduced it in detail here.

How the disability were treated in the old days,

UK: Epsom’s Horton Chapel! (13.9.2026)

Furthermore, I cannot find any pictures online. I think most people are unaware that a) this object exists, or b) the general public are permitted into this “entrance” area of a private members club – providing they do not attempt to pass through the barriers. Either way, there used to be five psychiatric hospitals in the Epsom area (known as the “Cluster”) – which suggests that many more maladies were once considered “mental illness” – even women demanding to vote or have a say. Working-class people “getting ill” so that their labour can no longer be exploited was also considered “psychotic” between earlier and middle part of its history (it existed between 1902-1997). One such unfortunate was a former wrestler who drive an ambulance during the Nazi German bombing of London. He was wounded by shrapnel in the neck – and he was placed in the psychiatric hospital – where he wasted away. He was a British Jewish person surnamed “Solomon” – who is buried in Horton Cemetery.

US: Claudia Jones Deported to the UK [in 1955] for Being a “Communist”! (3.9.2026)

This is typical of the bourgeois academic community – and perhaps to be expected of someone who has infiltrated and made his own way (successfully) in the White world (there are realities of “race” and “racism” that require navigating to avoid exclusion and ostracization). Indeed, even on the far-left, people like Claudia Jones are omitted from the general history and this stems from as yet un recognised and untreated disease of racism that exists on the left. The left lives in a world where it feels it occupies the moral high-ground because the USSR conquered racism. This “conquering” did not spread outside the USSR and the left in the West has no right to associate itself with it. Furthermore, from 1956 onwards, the USSR pursued a subtle but distinct “White” (Russian nationalistic) approach to the spread of Communism – as non-White China was demonised for daring to support Stalin against the lies perpetuated by Khrushchev. Although Claudia Jones did receive medical care in the USSR – and met Mao Zedong in 1964 (twice) – as part of an anti-racist and anti-colonial delegation (despite my extensive personal [family] and professional contacts with Chinese academia on the Mainland – I have not been able to locate any photographs of these meetings).

North Devon District Hospital bosses said temporarily suspending its birthing services was the "only safe course of action"

UK: North Devon NHS Leads the Way in “Closing-Down” [Socialist] Health-Service! (7.8.2026)

I have written elsewhere about how a close friend of mine used to work for the Audit Commission in 2009 – and how she had to attend a meeting with New Labour Ministers (I believe then under Gordon Brown). New (right-wing) Labour was dedicated to abolishing the NHS and Welfare State – everything the 1948 Soviet-influenced Labour government had brought-in. This was the Tory-dream of Tony Blair – who admired Maraget Thatcher (I know – you couldn’t make this up – but it is all true). We knew from 1997 onwards that New Labour was reactionary – but until my friend attended this governmental meeting – I had no idea to the extent. Needless to say, she returned home looking in a state of shock. She told me that the US – via the EU – had instructed the UK that ALL Socialist entities had to a) be privatised, and b) sold into the profitable control of the US. Bear in-mind that ALL the political parties in the UK (so it did not matter who you voted for) had to follow this US directive as the US maintained a direct control of the Bank of England (as it does all EU banks). This ensures that all European countries (including the UK – even though as “Celts” we are not strictly speaking “part of Europe”) do as they are told when the Americans demand it. Doubt this? Look at how everything now costs five-times as much as the US pets of Neo-Nazi Ukraine and Zionist Israel demand your money to pursue their far-right objectives. (Around 1990-1991, I was wandering around the campus of Loughborough University – North of London – when I encountered US [NATO] soldiers in uniform. They “pushed” me out of the way whilst laughing – and went about their disrespectful way).

Natural Resources for Medical Tourism in DPRK

DPRK: North Korea Possesses Many Natural Resources for Medical Tourism! (28.7.2026)

Today, the working British people pay for the NHS through taxation – but receive very little for their money. Only recently arrived migrants (who have never contributed) receive full and free healthcare because the Human Rights Act demands they be treated this way. This is a sure way of destroying a Socialist medical system – as those British without care envy and resent those recent arrivals who receive the highest levels of care. Although the answer should be to return the NHS to “care” over “cost” – this will not happen as the onus is always toward capitalism. When migrants arrived in the 1960s, everyone – British or not – received the highest quality of care on the NHS. Medical treatment only becomes an issue when it is rationed. Of course, I do not know whether the DPRK will charge for medical care – this is an issue I need to research further. Considering how many sanctions are applied to the DPRK by the West – I suppose it would be “just” to charge Europeans – although not strictly speaking acting in accordance with the spirit of Socialism! Medical treatment should be of the highest quality and free for all at the point of use.

There are ongoing concerns over St Andrew's Healthcare in Northampton

UK: Private Sector Hospital Caught “Beating Patients” – Handed-Over to NHS! (2.7.2026)

Since the collapse of the USSR in 1991, this project has intensified in vigour. Unions have been legally disempowered, and welfare systems dismantled – leading to intense poverty and workers with no rights. To be clear – ALL mainstream political parties (and the fringe far-right versions) – are all wedded to this attack upon the working-class (mass immigration is part of this attack – as it ensures the maintenance of cheap labour and the corroding of workers’ rights). Now, as the NHS collapses, patient care is at an all-time low – so how bad must “private” healthcare be in the UK if its failing institutions are being handed-over to the NHS due to “safety concerns”? The ill, the young, and the elderly are being treated terribly because of the pro-US policies being pursued by the UK Establishment and it makes you wonder what was the point of fighting and winning WWII against German fascism – when US fascism is allowed into the UK via the back-door! It does not matter who we vote for – as there is an agreement (behind the scenes) between all parties to continue the policy regardless of who is in power! Getting out the EU was only half the battle – but the bourgeoisie prevented the election of the far-left government the UK so desperately needed under Jeremy Corbyn (to shut the borders and re-empower the Unions and the workers) – and here we are in this post-Covid mess!
