Neo-Nazi Ukraine: How the Obama Administration & CIA Orchestrated the 2014 Maidan Coup! (31.5.2026)

The Staggering Human Cost: While the media ignores it, Pete cites hacked databases showing that roughly 1.25 million Ukrainian soldiers have been killed. He notes that Ukraine has been losing approximately 1,000 men a day throughout 2025 in what has become a brutal war of attraction.

8 Years of Slaughter: Between 2014 and 2021, over 14,000 ethnic Russian civilians were killed by their own government’s artillery and drones. Pete argues that the Ukrainian regime forfeited its rights to those regions by outlawing the Russian language and the Orthodox Church, effectively conducting an ethnic cleansing campaign that forced Russia to intervene to “save a friend being mugged”.

UK: The Red Menace Makes It Through Another Year! (30.5.2026)

My birthday is just two-days after that of my late father. The allegation in the above text could well be true. Fight everything, question everything, and accept nothing. It is a good start. I remember as a kid working it out for myself that the supposedly left-wing comic – Alexi Sayle – was in fact a traitor to the cause when he decided to endorse capitalist advertisement! Later, I further realised that if you do not conform somewhere, then the system you oppose will permanently exclude you. The net permitted a certain re-balancing – but just look at how the capitalists have colonised it and turned everything into mindless adverts and paywalls. Keep you powder dry and tinder in good order. It is all about timing – and getting away with it. This is a small envelop of opportunity – so use it well. Meanwhile, my deceased father is lying in state – and what an awful state of Care Home, NHS, and Social Services neglect it is. Untreated ailments, sores, injuries – and so on.

Surrey: US WWII “Jeep”, Garage & Tractors! (30.5.2026)

30/05/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Structures like this formed the early “Garages” – or “Petrol Stations” in the UK. This version caters to the early car-driver – who were few in number – and the bicycle rider – which were many in number. Bicycles were the main business – with the rich car-drivers forming a lesser number – although potentially lucrative due to the ongoing costs of maintaining a car. Below is a WWII US “Jeep”. The story is that these were originally called “General Purpose” (GP) Vehicles – but that a US shoulder spelt the initials “GP” as “Jeep” – and the designation stuck and is really popular. The US was an ally of the UK and USSR during WWII – and thousands of Jeeps were used during D-Day and afterwards!

Surrey: Mobile Workmen’s Home! (29.5.2026)

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!

Surrey: WWII Anderson Shelter – Rural Life Living Museum! (29.5.2026)

29/05/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The fact that thousands of working-class people in London took to the Tube tunnels for safety demonstrates just how few people possessed these shelters. My mother’s family – which lived in Lewisham – did possess one of these “Anderson Shelters” – and it saved their lives when Hitler’s bombers finally came! During September, 1941, Hitler targetted the working-class areas of London with the intention of either wiping-out the working-class (and preventing them joining the British Armed Forces) or scaring them so much that they would not volunteer to fight Hitler. Hitler destroyed large parts of Lewisham – which included my mother’s family home. They had took cover in the shelter and as my grandfather was piling-up the sand-bags around the door – when the bombs fell that destotyed their house and street!
