Cast-Iron Fence - Horton Cemetery!

UK: Epsom’s Victorian Horton Cemetery! (13.9.2026)

Of course, the local area is now covered in roads and domestic and commercial buildings, with only smaller sections visible. These areas are more or less wild and uneven. We know this because we walked along about half a mile of what was one of the boundaries of the graveyard – before entering a relatively small area of the graveyard proper which still retained its cast-iron fence. Placed along the adjacent wooden fence – there were the biographies of the deceased that local historians had respectfully researched. The walking was rough-going due to the uneven terrain – which is not suitable for the inform. Efforts are ongoing to do something about the state of the place through raising awareness and funds. This pace was about a mile or so up the road from Horton Chapel – which was our next port of call.

Scotland: “Equal Heights” Oompa Loompa Found “Guilty” of Sexual Offenses! (7.9.2026)

The court heard how Corrieri had a “fetish” for tights and stockings, and these would often feature in his grim requests made to the victims.

Detailing the experience of one 14-year-old targeted by the perverted performer, the prosecutor said: “He sent requests to send images wearing tights and offered to pay for videos of her having sex with her boyfriend.

She felt threatened and asked him to stop but he continued until she blocked him”, before adding that he talked about having “a fetish for stockings and feet.”

Corrieri, who is 4ft 2 and from Motherwell, admitted to a total of 10 sexual offence charges involving a total of six underage victims aged between 13 and 17.

The Estate Agents is Called "Progressive" in North Bergen!

UK: North Bergen – New Jersey [USA] – London Calling! (11.8.2026)

I suppose as I write predominantly in “English” it is inevitable that a US audience will be attracted – if not only out of curiously – rather than any great political engagement. Surely, it would be logical to think this (of course, I exclude my progressive US readership from this assessment). Imagine my surprise when I saw that around half of the 900 or so hits my blog attracts (each week) in the US is from a single city – namely “North Bergen” in New Jersey. The name is either Dutch or Scandinavian – but the British once ruled this area. I have been reading about ths place as quite frankly I am astonished that my output would be of any interest to the average American – let alone in a single city. It could be a fluke and I am reading too much into it – but I am grateful for every read and click my work attracts – whether the content is liked or not. So, to those people of “North Bergen” who I will never meet or personally know – I thank you for the “click” – even if it was in error. Thank you for giving me something “new” to research. Thank you for sharing this path through my words!

Cuba: Presidential Statement on Fuel Shortages! (13.5.2036)

A small group of ultra-rightists who have hijacked the policy towards Cuba and lie or deliberately and cynically misinform about the Cuban reality, while demanding more suffocation and threats against our people, fear this improvement.

Our response remains the same: always willing to dialogue on equal terms, we will continue to resist and create, convinced more and more that it is up to us to overcome the enormous difficulties with our own efforts, united as a nation, and firm to face the most difficult challenges.

Bronx Anti-War Free Distribution - New York

New York: Bronx Anti-War Free Food Distribution & Fund-Raising! (25.3.2026)

The grass-roots US appears to be strewn with left-wing groups like this that strive to assist the ordinary through the efforts of ordinary people – by-passing the official institutions that either ignore or directly oppress the masses. It is through the various social media apps not directly caught-up in the mainstream – that these groups announce their existence and reach-out beyond the boundaries of their communities. Of course, these groups are often a mixture of anarchists, Socialists (of various kinds) and Communists – forming “United Fronts – usually on a permanent basis (despite ideological differences). As the US System does not tolerate any form of People’s Movement – quite often it is a matter of time before that State raids the headquarters of these groups – films it – and places the footage on social media for all to see – together with a debilitating commentary designed to denigrate the members, etc. It is an Establishment play-book in the US that is deployed time and time again. In the end it comes down not to necessarily agreeing with this group or that group – but simply “knowing” such groups exist and share knowledge of what they do – and attempt to do.
