Sutton: Visiting the Carshalton Water Tower! (24.9.2023)

As immense wealth was generated through the labour of the exploited masses (which involved the development of the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade) a privileged middle-class developed – particularly after the English Civil Wars of the 1640s. This development saw the successful transference of the control of the ‘means of production’ (and political power) from the Aristocracy (the upper-class) to the Bourgeoisie (the middle-class) and with it the unleashing of tremendous creative force (a process magnified enormously by the ‘discovery’ of the Americas and the effective stealing of immense tracts of ‘free’ land and other resources)! Of course, the spread of British power and influence throughout other countries of the world – including Africa and Asia – opened all kinds of diverse markets which spread commodities to the four corners of the earth!

Ghana: President Urges UN to Consider Reparations for Slave Trade! (22.9.2023)

“Reparations must be paid for the slave trade,” Akufo-Addo said to an eruption of applause.

“No amount of money will ever make up for the horrors, but it would make the point that evil was perpetrated, that millions of productive Africans were snatched from the embrace of our continent, and put to work in the Americas and the Caribbean without compensation for their labor,” he said.

He also called for the illicit flow of funds from Africa to be returned to the continent.

While the current picture on achieving the Sustainable Development Goals “is not very bright,” Akufo-Addo expressed the hope that “it is within our capacity to turn things around.”

A good start would be to make the needed changes to the structures of the United Nations, “then we can rebuild trust and reignite global solidarity,” he said.

US: Death of 53 Migrants in 2022 – 4 Charged in Texas 18-Wheeler Horror! (19.9.2023)

The tractor trailer with a fake plate was carrying 67 migrants when it was found on Monday, Francisco Garduno Yanez, head of Mexico’s National Immigration Institute, said at a press conference on Wednesday.

There was no sign of water in the refrigerated tractor-trailer and no visible working air conditioning unit, according to San Antonio Fire Chief Charles Hood. Those found alive were hot to the touch and suffering from heat stroke and exhaustion.

Temperatures in San Antonio climbed to 101 degrees Fahrenheit (38.3 degrees centigrade) on Monday, while the heat in the packed trailer was likely way higher than that, according to the U.S. National Weather Service.

UK: The Issue of Hong Kong ‘Golden Visa’ School Places! (12.9.2023)

As Sutton seems to be a hub for newly arrived ‘Golden Visa’ recipients – the place can be used as a barometer for all the covert policies the UK government is following. Sutton is currently awash with highly aggressive, racist and completely disrespectful (Neo-Nazi) Ukrainians – many of which have been re-housed by Sutton Council in newly built (and ‘gated’) luxury houses and flats – paid for by ourselves, of course, the local taxpayer. Bear in mind these people have contributed NOTHING to this country and currently uphold the very Hitlerite ideology we fought against as a nation during WWII! On top of this privileged anti-British influx are the brainwashed Chinese trouble-makers from Hong Kong – many of whom have been previously educated in the West and seduced by the glitter they think they have encountered.

China’s Security Authorities Disclose Details of a U.S. Meritorious Medal-Awarded Spy! (11.9.2023)

This is a disease in the Chinese mind and body that must be stamped-out. Giving away your freedom to foreign people who do not give a damn about you is NOT the way ahead! In the UK at the moment, particularly in the area of South London where I live, I have started to encounter groups of newly arrived ‘Hong Kong’ Chinese migrants with full Resettlement Rights and Permanent Visas! This has surprised me – as these people are not victims of oppression or persecution. They stand-out as they do NOT mix with other Chinese Nationals (many of whom are my good friends and Comrades) or with British born Chinese people (such as my family) – you know – those other Chinese Nationals who have NOT just betrayed their country for a free Council House taken off the British population!

China: British Museum – “No Idea” How Much Loot It Possesses – Or Where It Might Be! (28.8.2023)

The Admonitions of the Instructress to the Court Ladies collected in the British Museum is the closest copy of the prestigious Chinese painting by Gu Kaizhi. It is one of the most famous collections of the museum. It was plundered from the court of the Qing Dynasty during the Siege of Beijing by the Eight-Nation Alliance in 1900.

There are very few tri-colored Luohan statues of the Liao Dynasty in the world and those collected in the British Museum were stolen overseas from the Yixian County, Hebei Province.

The British Museum has refused to return the cultural relics over the years mainly on the grounds and basis of the British Museum Act, which was amended by the British Parliament in 1963 and basically prohibits the museum from returning any of its collections.

The British leading human rights lawyer Geoffrey Robertson QC said “The trustees of the British Museum have become the world’s largest receivers of stolen property, and the great majority of their loot is not even on public display.”
