How The Masses Are Created

Posted on 31/07/2024 by Daniel

So someone posts the knife attacker in Southport was a Muslim and there is a riot outside of a Mosque in which the rioters are not from Southport but inspired by social media to congregate. It takes many moths and sometimes an entire upbringing to get someone to attend a rally of this nature and…

Children Are Doing Badly

Posted on 30/07/2024 by Daniel

12 children in a Druze village, 3 children in a British town all in the same week. It goes against everything adults should be doing, to protect the new generation. The 17 year old who killed three children and the jihadi fascists who miss-fired their sickening missile are not adults in any sense of the…

Nothing Changes

Posted on 29/07/2024 by Daniel

So we elected a Labour Government a week ago and today we are told two children have been murdered in a knife attack and two days ago we were witness to video of a man going berserk in an airport and being tasered and the Chancellor declaring the last government lied about the funding they…

Why Oxygen?

Posted on 26/07/2024 by Daniel

Oxygen’s key role is to function as a terminal electron acceptor. In other words, it is like the positive terminal on a battery. Food (like carbohydrates) function as the negative terminal. Electrons flow from food to oxygen, and cells capture some of this energy along the way, similar to how a light bulb captures the…

What Freedoms?

Posted on 25/07/2024 by Daniel

I have tried to see where the freedoms are we hear so much about. I understand we have freedom of thought – with the caveats that education can limit ones preparedness to imbibe information. That said it makes sense  we all have a freedom to think. Politically we have a freedom of speech which is…

It’s just Weather

Posted on 24/07/2024 by Daniel

I chatted to a friend in London today and she said ‘I hope you are enjoying the sunny weather’. I smiled. This is the second full day of constant drizzle. But then, we are lucky there are people in the world who would give anything for two days of drizzle in their droughts, in their…

A Strange Tide

Posted on 22/07/2024 by Daniel
