Thanks, Ursula, for mentioning my work. I really appreciate it.

See my latest substack on how to feel good... and once you feel good, you can be a force for good...

Love your closing statement of looking after our selves ( and each other ) while letting the wealthy predatory class devour themselves ! How grossly disgusting they are in their short term hedonism, their savage hatred of life and their relentless attempts to destroy Christ and Christendom .

They hate us ... very few realize just how deep that hatred goes ... but it is actually on full display ...

As the saying goes “ denial ain’t just a river in Egypt “! We must never ever give up confronting this …Mass denial.

Ursula ... what a post ... so much to get our heads around ... humbled by your amazing research abilities again ... I'm embarrassed I make assumptions sometimes on less than 10% of the stuff you dig up ... This World we are living in is just so scary ... it really does seem to be the 'clever people' ie the people running rings around us ... versus the rest of us ...

Are they really working in the best interests of Africa ... or the rest of us ...

All I see ... are mechanisms of hideous control ... and things getting a lot worse ...

And ... as usual our idiot Govt sees 'nothing' ... just goes with the flow ...

Over a century of complacency ... is just so evident now ... as the walls of the World they are creating ... for themselves ... close in on us ...

I agree with your solution ... but most are way too gone with 'mass formation' ...

We need to 'win' ... with 'vaccines' hopefully ... to rid the World of it's complacency ... but I fear it is becoming too late ...

Luxon is ignoring my emails ... they aren't getting thru to many now ... views have dropped considerably ...

Slightly more optimistic with the overseas situation right now ... but even many bigger Substack accounts seem to be struggling for views recently ...

We need a break ... cancer being reported on Stuff ... but NZ Herald not as forthcoming at all ... I think it was Stuff who revisited poor Gina Urlich

As I said to NZ Doc a few weeks ago ... we need one big break ... and we'll be 'cooking with gas'

regards

I might have said it before but I figure I did a class on Russian at Moscow University alongside one of the Chandlers back in 2012 or so. I must ask them. He said that he was into oil and timber or somesuch. I have a habit of running into these dystopians for some reason.

Any Chandler connection to Tsar Nicolas you figure?

This Reclaim stuff is all a bit murky. @miriaf has looked into it and that interview is the subject of her most recent blog post., if you haven't already read it:

https://miri.substack.com/p/a-bridgen-way-too-far

I never understood why Andrew Bridgen joined Reclaim rather than continuing as an independent and I've always been sceptical of his Damascene conversion to opposing that which he previously voted for. Added to which, it appears that his role is to portray opposition to that which he previously supported as 'right-wing' and 'pro-Brexit', thereby ensuring that people who are neither will oppose his current views.

Oh and thanks for the info about Triodos Bank, which I first became aware of more than twenty-five years ago as an 'ethical bank' but wasn't aware of its other interests.

I read some of Miri’s rant. It’s a shame she’s only allowing comments from subscribers as there are some important errors in her judgemental approach. But hey ho, each to their own.

Agreed. By only allowing comments from paid subscribers she only gets feedback from within her own echo chamber. And for someone who is 'awake' I'm surprised that she uses WhatsApp, as it is owned by Facebook and requires a smartphone in order to use it.
