Surrey: Mobile Workmen’s Home! (29.5.2026)

29/05/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

This seems to be an early caravan – although much larger – affixed upon an army carriage dating back to WWI (although the Beatles were playing on the interior radio when we visited). I thought it might have travelled on rails – and think it could travel on a number of different surfaces (the wheels look rail-based – but I might be wrong). Basically, workmen tasked with building or clearing, etc, in remote areas – could live in these types of devices for extended periods – between shifts. This was when labour Unions ruled the roost and this type of relative luxury was demanded! I suspect for many workers this temporary accommodation might be better than the places they actually lived in! It reminded me of the carriage Lenin spoke from when he declared the end of capitalist exploitation in 1917! A left-leaning Labour government improved the lives of millions in 1948!

UK: The Great Charlie Chuck! (22.5.2026)

22/05/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

When I was young, I worked in a number of factories and wore over-alls. We were all fully Unionised workers. The Social Clubs used to collect fees from its members (small weekly or monthly amounts) which were used to fund the two-week “Works’ Holiday” in August – usually paying fully for a break in a Holiday Camp (all-inclusive). Later, during the 1970s, the Unions (via Social Clubs) would fund flights to Spain (all-inclusive). If any government dared to take away the Welfare State, the NHS, or Social Services – the Unions would threaten to paralyse society through “all-out” General Strikes! Workers would even turn-off the electric to prove their point. All this was destroyed by Thatcher and all of the UK Social Clubs are now gone – with workers wallowing in self-pity and personal greed (open to manipulation by the far-right). How sad it all is. Still, Charlie Chuck has a “Zen-Like” quality about his prose – although many of my international readers may not understand his Northern-drawl.

Honeywood Museum - Home Guard Fatigue-Jacket

UK: Sutton & Cheam Home Guard [WWII] – “Private Ernist Geirenger” [55th Surrey] – Preserved “Fatigue-Jacket”! (21.2.2026)

22/02/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Indeed, it was the British Oxford graduate (and “Communist”) Tom Wintringham (1898-1949) who had masterminded the “Land Defence Volunteers Force” (LDVF) comprised of hundreds of thousands of eager working-class men and women – before Winston Churchill stepped-in and had every Socialist arrested and imprisoned. Churchill invented a “new” (false) history for what he re-named the “Home Guard” – claiming (again, falsely) that he had “invented” it. Whilst maintaining its essential “Socialist” ethos – Churchill kept the Unit under-armed and always lacking basic equipment and ammunition. He also made sure that as the Soviet Red Army moved ever closer to Berlin – the Home Guard was abolished in 1944 – before the war ended. However, during WWII the Home Guard was technically an ally of the USSR – and this is why the Unions urged hundreds of thousands of men and women to join it – although this “Socialist History is now deliberately obscured and difficult to find. The Home Guard was briefly re-mobilised inthe early 1950s when Churchill regained power – but was soon disbanded due to a lack of interest. Ordinary working-class men and women would not join to oppose a Soviet Union that was not a threat to the UK.

UK: Convicted Extremist Murderer Wins £237,500 in “Human Rights” Ruling! (2.1.2026)

And the Establishment wonders “why” over 150,000 far-right thugs are congregating outside Migrant Hotels, Migration Hostels, and Migration Centres, attracting vast swathes of political support from ordinary people who hold political views of a lesser bias. Not only is the media continuously printing a daily tally of crime (usually “sexual”) committed by migrants in the UK – but it is purposely ignoring (and omitting) all similar crime committed by “White” people (including “White” migrants – usually Ukrainian and Polish, etc). The news – like the structure of UK society – is being deliberately “engineered” by the ruling bourgeoisie. A continuous and brutal “Austerity” and withdrawal of all Socialist support for the indigenous population – and the ladling-out of the most lavish and opulent care and support for random groups of incomers – designed to water-down the work-force. We are importing selfish individuals – not collective-minded proletariats – and that is exactly what the bourgeois intend and want. The UK is being transitioned into a US State where the workers possess no rights and are paid so little by their employers – that the customer is expected to “tip” (to supplement their meagre wages) – something that used to viewed as vulgar in the UK before the rapid spread of US-owned businesses.

Venezuela: Maduro Resists Through Cable Car Security! (19.12.2025)

19/12/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

🔺 A masterpiece of Venezuelan engineering! No blockade can stand against Venezuela; no one will be able to stop the immense will, the spirit of creation, and the right to life of our people.

🔺 I got on one of the cable cars, spacious, with a capacity for 8 passengers, and I could see its high quality.

🔺 It’s a good moment for Venezuelan culture, with the real prize: Joropo, a Cultural and Intangible Heritage of Humanity! The engine of our national identity is secured with the Revolution.

🔺 We launched the 2025-2026 Communal Rice Plan (Guárico River Irrigation System): 220 communal producers will plant 4,000 hectares for an estimated production of 17 million kilograms.

Sutton: Farage’s Neo-Nazis Penetrate Our Letterbox! (8.12.2025)

The UK government should be giving Socialist Rights “back” to the indigenous population – but far-right groups – like Reform UK – want to take away ALL Socialism from every person in the UK. This is Hitlerism and will lead to a greater tension and violence between the UK’s ethnic groups. Capitalist market forces causes crime. Crime will always exist within the exploitative capitalist system. If capitalism “stops” – then crime will be dramatically reduced. Poor people of any ethnicity can be driven to commit crime out of desperation. Even in a perfect Socialist System – inner genetic conditions can still direct behaviour toward the criminal activity without – for no material reason – but this will be a small percentage that can be compassionately handled by a progressive State. Internationalism recognises differences and balances those differences with justice – but nationalist-driven migration is premised upon inequality and favouritism. Bourgeois governments “force” their respective populations to “like” and “assist” those groups and political leanings we find aberrant. Marx advises that we should question everything.
