Issy Ferris and Archie Sylvester were told they faced $200,000 (£146,500) of medical bills after their baby was born prematurely in the US despite them being insured

UK: British Couple Get “Taste” of “Private Healthcare Hell” as Woman Gives Birth in US By Mistake – and Receives $200,000 Bill! (21.2.2026)

Not one word about a privatising NHS – or the fact that if the original 1948 NHS is not returned (advocating “care” over “cost”) – we will all be paying these types of ridiculous bills. My partner is a NHS Midwife who serves every pregnant woman “free” at the point of use – as she is paid via collective taxation. This is the same as in Cuba, China, or North Korea – and most Western and Northern European countries. Americanisation in the UK and Europe does mean that private healthcare is knocking on the door. Imagine that hell! Look at how the shyster insurance company attempting to “scam” these two clients. This is the horror that awaits us all!

South Korea's former President Yoon Suk-yeol. (File photo)

Seoul: North Korea “Staggered” at Draconian Nature of US Justice Enforced in ROK! (20.2.2026)

Yoon became the country’s third former president to stand trial on insurrection charges, following former Presidents Chun Doo-hwan and Roh Tae-woo, who were convicted for military coup and brutal crackdown under martial law.

The Seoul court merged three trials in December last year for eight suspects, including Yoon and seven other senior military and police officials, charged with performing critical duties in the insurrection.

The court handed former Defense Minister Kim Yong-hyun a 30-year prison sentence, convicting him of performing a significant role in the insurrection.

The special counsel team sought life imprisonment for Kim, whom it called a mastermind who planned and led the insurrection alongside Yoon by mobilizing the military.

Former Defense Intelligence Commander Noh Sang-won and former National Police Agency Commissioner Cho Ji-ho received prison terms of 18 and 12 years, respectively, for their key roles in the insurrection.

Russia: Lavrov – Europe is Trying to Give Nazism an “Acceptable Look”! (20.2.2026)

Lavrov stressed that “preserving the memory of the fight against Nazism is especially important to prevent the revival of misanthropic ideology in any formats, in any manifestations.” The minister recalled that 2026 marks the 80th anniversary of the completion of the Nuremberg Tribunal, “at which history issued a final, irrevocable verdict to the war criminals of the Third Reich guilty of genocide of the peoples of the former Soviet Union.”

Russia: NATO is a Terrorist Entity Empowering the Criminal Kyiv Regime! (20.2.2027)

“This is terrorism, of course, is international in its origin,” she said. “It is fueled with weapons, money, political and support from the outside. A whole conglomerate of countries, of course, operating under the NATO umbrella. But, of course, this is the same international terrorism that aims to divert attention from failures on the battlefield and lead this very illegal hybrid war in the form of a psychological attack and physical intimidation into the the very homes of civilians.”

Stuart Boorman has pleaded with Gravesham council to let his family stay on their land

UK: Kent Council Hits “Glitch” Whilst Discriminating Against Local Gypsy Community! (19.2.2026)

On February 12, council planning enforcement officers visited the site and found evidence that the notice had not been complied with.

It is understood that Stuart Boorman and his family are some of the occupants living on the site after they bought part of the land last year.

They applied for permission to station eight mobile homes and two day rooms on a section of the land in August, but it was rejected by the council in December.

It was refused because it was on green belt land, the site lies within the Meopham Downs Landscape Character Area, highway safety risks, and the proposed loss of biodiversity.

However, Mr Boorman told KentOnline he believes they are being discriminated against as they are from the Gypsy and Traveller community.

He explained that after years of moving around the county, living in caravans parked on roadsides, car parks and petrol stations, they had tried to settle permanently and get their children into education.

Speaking previously, the 51-year-old said: “Gravesham council is going above and beyond to remove us all from the land.

“Not only would this make my family homeless, but it would disrupt the children’s education and well-being.

“All we ask is to be treated with the same human rights and dignity as every other British citizen, and to be given the opportunity to live alongside the local community.

“When we finally come together and scrape together the money to buy land to settle on, our plans are rejected.”

Despite this, the local authority is now launching legal proceedings for the alleged breach of planning enforcement.

Hubei Firework Disaster!

China: 12 Die in Firework – Explosion After “Military Grade” Gunpowder Stored in Hubei Domestic-Commercial Setting! (19.2.2026)

Apparently, the owner (who died in the explosion) was illegally using the the building as a shop, a store-room, and for cheap rented accommodation (possibly for the owner and his family). It is illegal in China for a shop and residential areas to be located in the same single building. Although it is not entirely clear, it may be that all three-floors were being used during Chinese New Year to store excessive firework supplies designed to meet the expected (enhanced) two-week demand. It is illegal to store excessive stock – even within a fully registered shopping area. There is also talk of a “back-draft” – or fires rushing up the stairs – and burning the people trying to escape.
