The planned digital ID or "Britcard" 🤢 is the latest in a range of dystopian policies introduced by the Starmer regime and must be resisted at all costs. This excellent article explains how dangerous this will be for people in the UK zerohedge.com/geopolitical/u…

Official figures out this morning report that last month, the UK government borrowed £24.5 billion.
But the fineprint shows that almost £11 billion of that extra borrowing went on debt interest payments.
That's more than £400 per household on debt service costs, in September alone.
So far during this financial year, from April to September, the government's debt interest payments amount to £61 billion.
Now, this number will barely feature in UK newspapers and across our airwaves. It may be mentioned in passing in out-of-the-way business sections, or on the odd business bulletin.
But this huge debt interest bill won't register with the vast majority of our political and media class, or impact the national debate.
Let me explain why that's so wrong and so dangerous ...
£61 billion is a massive amount of money.
It's equivalent to the UK's entire annual defence budget – the money we're paying, increasingly to foreign creditors, simply to service our national debt for six months, not to pay any of it back.
£61 billion is equivalent to the money you'd raise over a year from adding a whopping 7 pence to the basic rate of income tax.
For £61 billion, you could build around 40 large, state-of-the-art hospitals, or employ more than 100 thousand extra nurses for ten years.
£61 billion would pay for free-at-the-point of use social care for everyone who needs it in the UK, for an entire year – three times over.
Again, this is the debt interest bill on Britain's spiralling national debt – now more than 3 trillion pounds – over the last six months alone.
The UK's public finances are close to meltdown – yet so many MPs and journalists continue blithely to view ever more public spending and borrowing as the answer to every problem.
Those who highlight the dangers post by our hugely precarious national accounts are dismissed as cranks, ideologues or worse.
But basic arithmetic has no ideology.
And there is nothing "progressive" or "kind" or "right-on" about driving the UK ever closer to the fiscal cliff edge, provoking a crisis that will make the "austerity" years of the 2010s feel like a picnic, a crisis in which poorer households will suffer the most.
Yes, Britain's national debt is lower than that of France. But because our borrowing has been rising so sharply, and because we're so prone to inflation, our debt service costs are much higher.
The UK is spending a disgraceful 3.6pc of GDP on public debt interest, while France spends less than 2.5pc.
Endless airtime and column inches are devoted to spurious conversations about a billion or two of additional "fiscal headroom" we may or may not have in three years' time.
And, of course, any "extra headroom" is immediately pledged in new spending – which means yet more borrowing.
These conversations are a waste of time – and, in fact, are deeply counterproductive. Three-year fiscal forecasts, even one- and two-year forecasts, routinely turn out to be askew by tens of billions of pounds.
I'm not saying we don't need fiscal rules - we do, but we need more immediate rules, which actually bite, acting as a meaningful constraint on out-of-control borrowing and spending.
Instead, political and media sages present the nation with spuriously precise discussions about fictional fiscal outcomes way into the future – using rules which are deliberately designed to kick arithmetic realities into the long grass ....
An increasingly expensive, over-bearing, out of control state is not the answer to Britain problems.
But unless we change course, it will certainly be our downfall.
Please like/share if you think what I'm saying is important – and if fiscal realities should feature more prominently in our national debate.

Manufactured unrest to introduce martial law, with the added bonus of destroying historical landmarks as we are dragged towards the Great Reset 'Year Zero'.
It's almost like it's all coordinated.

David Icke banned for another two years. Utterly absurd.
I have just been informed by the Dutch Minister of Immigration that I am to be banned from some 30 countries in the Schengen border system for another two years – making now six in total since 2022. If you are banned from one you are banned from all. Crazy, but true. I am apparently considered a ‘potential danger to public order’ as a ‘known spreader of conspiracy theories’ and it has been made clear that I will continue to be banned indefinitely unless I ‘change my views’. Let that sink in.
I don’t think people realise the fundamental importance of this case to freedom of speech with a lawyer from the European Commission seeking to change the law to make what has happened to me easier to impose on anyone else. I have so far been banned first by the government of Mark Rutte, now Secretary General of NATO, for the ‘crime’ of agreeing to speak at a PEACE rally in Amsterdam in 2022.
This was reimposed in 2024 by the government party of right-wing ‘alternative hero’ Geert Wilders and now by the leftist government of Rob Jetten, once the Minister for Climate and Energy Policy in Rutte’s government. ‘Right’ or ‘Left’ it doesn’t matter. They all agree that deleting freedom of opinion is good.
This is part of the letter sent to me today by Jetten’s Minister of Asylum and Migration and Deputy Prime Minister, Bart van den Brink. How sinister can you get?
‘It has been found that you are still considered a (potential) danger to the public order. To this end, I consider the following. In the previous (extension) procedures about your alert, I have … concluded that you pose a (potential) danger to public order, because you have been identified as a (known) spreader of conspiracy theories and statements that may contribute to anti-institutional extremism [by] your supporters.
Openly and uncritically discussing conspiracy theories can lead to social acceptance of anti-Semitism, xenophobia … and racism. [I was invited to speak at the PEACE rally by a Jewish man].
Such theories can lead to national figures being elite groups that would control society and/or in which prominent persons, administrators and civil servants are dehumanized and democratic principles are rejected. [‘emocratic’ principles which include banning someone from 30 countries for opinions you don’t like].
Your statements can also contribute to anti-government extremism. That you have not changed in this respect is shown by the following recent expressions and behaviour. For example, from your contribution in the video "David Icke & lawyer Jeroen Pols about new twist in EU ban lawsuit" on the YouTube channel LighthouseTV of 1 October 2026, following the hearing before the CJEU, it appears … clearly that you do not have any control over your ideas, beliefs and behaviours … and that you wish to amend the alert measure as a confirmation of your own conspiracy theory.
That you still actively propagate your conspiracy theories and appear to be actively spreading from your video "I Predicted It All More Than 30 Years Ago – The REAL Reason Why Energy Is Being Targeted", posted on October 1, 2026 on your Ickonic.com … website, and can be seen on your David Icke YouTube channel. The social threat posed by the spread of anti-institutional extremism, to which your statements are is still topical.’
This is the link by the way: youtube.com/watch?v=IVszVw8m…
If that was written in China or North Korea no one would be surprised, but this is the Netherlands and the EU. We don’t like what you say and so you are, in effect, banned from the whole of Europe and they claim that I am the ‘threat to democracy’. It may one day dawn on this bewildered gentlemen that in banning me for my opinion he is proving me right and that ‘anti-government’ sentiment is caused not by me, but by the behaviour of governments the world over. His Damascus experience won’t be soon, though, clearly.
We have been challenging the ban for four years working through the court levels of the Netherlands as judges walked into court with symbolic rubber stamps on their person saying ‘the government is right’. We have now reached the European Court of Justice when on September 29th some 17 judges attended the court in Luxembourg to offer their opinion if the original ban was fair. They will not report until January 28th and then other courts are involved.
All this for agreeing to speak at a PEACE rally in Amsterdam for 20 minutes and then come home. Pinch me, it can’t be true. Ouch! – hell, it is.
To think there are moronic people posting from their mum’s spare bedroom saying that I’m not really banned because I am ‘controlled opposition’. Should I laugh or cry? Oh, definitely laugh.

🤡 Ok lets talk about foreign attempts to influence the Brexit vote (apart from Obama telling us we'd be at the "back of the queue" for a trade deal).... It's quite the list don't you think?
▪️ George Soros – Billionaire financier. Predicted sterling could fall by 15–20% or more, making British households poorer.
▪️ Bill Gates – Warned Britain would become significantly less attractive for business, investment and scientific research.
▪️WEF – published warnings that Brexit could cause profound recession, financial instability and falling investment.
▪️ François Hollande – French President. Warned of consequences for British trade & financial services.
▪️Hillary Clinton – US. Publicly backed Remain supporting Obama's position.
▪️ Angela Merkel – German Chancellor. Publicly backed remain.
▪️ Jean-Claude Juncker – European Commission President. Warned Britain not to leave.
▪️Justin Trudeau – Canadian Prime Minister. Warned that Britain would not get easy or automatic trade agreements after Brexit.
▪️ Donald Tusk – European Council President. Warned Brexit could have serious political and economic consequences.
▪️ Enda Kenny – Irish Prime Minister. Warned Brexit could threaten stability in Northern Ireland.
▪️ Shinzo Abe – Japanese Prime Minister. Warned Brexit could threaten Japanese investment and more than 100,000 British jobs.
▪️ Michael Bloomberg – American billionaire, former New York mayor. Supported Remain and warned of economic and employment consequences.
▪️ Li Ka-shing – Hong Kong billionaire. Warned Brexit would damage Britain.
▪️ Wang Jianlin – Chinese billionaire. Warned Brexit could affect Chinese investment in Britain.
▪️ Jamie Dimon – JPMorgan Chase CEO. Warned that thousands of British financial-services jobs could be at risk.
▪️ International Monetary Fund (IMF) – Christine Lagarde warned the economic consequences could range from "pretty bad to very, very bad".
▪️ Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) – Predicted Brexit would leave British households thousands of pounds worse off annually.
▪️ G7 – Formally declared Brexit a serious risk to global economic growth.
▪️ G20 – Identified Britain's possible departure from the EU as a potential shock to the global economy.
▪️ European Commission – Warned Britain would lose existing privileges and face new trade barriers.
▪️ Bono and U2 – Irish musicians. Supported Britain remaining in the EU.
▪️ Liam Neeson – Irish actor. Encouraged eligible Irish voters in Britain to vote Remain.

The scale of attempted foreign interference in Brexit was extreme...
And in the face of ALL of the opposition, in the face of all the threats to force us to comply... the majority voted Leave anyway 💣

I’ve just watched a whole BBC documentary about the rapid increase in cancer among the young..
It explored food & lifestyle choices, even body sprays & plastics.
Not once tho, did they explore whether getting young healthy people vaccinated over & over with a product that had no long term health data, may have played a role🤔

Burnham the bullshitter.
🚨BREAKING: Andy Burnham says the government believes Iran was involved in the Fairford airbase incident
"There are strong indications that Iran played a part in what happened over the weekend at RAF Fairford, but it remains an ongoing, complex and serious police investigation.
We are working closely with our colleagues in the United States of America. We can confirm our belief that we believe Iran to have played a part."

I get the impression that the RAF Fairford false flag went wrong.
In the immortal words of Mahatma Gandhi, "they've fucked it", and with the narrative shattered on the floor, they're all scrambling around trying to peice it back together.
But in doing so, one side has constructed a unicorn, while he other has built a donkey with a Mr Whippy stuffed on its head.

A wonderfully wry look at the most pathetic false flag ever at RAF Fairford:
"For the past few months, we’ve been told by people with a crystal ball that an attack on UK soil was imminent, and now it’s finally happened. There was an incident at RAF Fairford last night that resulted in 85 homes being evacuated. The media would like you to know this incident was terrifying. So terrifying, in fact, that you should probably get ready for war.
This is an emerging story, but here’s what I’ve managed to piece together so far. Given the media seems to be making this up as it goes along, some of the details are probably gonna change. Needless to say, they have plot holes to fill…
A farmer was driving home in the early hours of the morning and she noticed three white vans blocking the road. No one was inside them. She turned around and spotted a bunch of Middle Eastern-looking boys running off into the woods. Those woods were incredibly dark, but thankfully, she has the eyes of an owl. She was able to work out their ethnicity through the shadow of the trees, despite the fact they were wearing masks.
She called an emergency line that locals had been given for just such a scenario, but no one could be bothered to answer. She called 999 and police came out within ten minutes of her call. When they arrived, they said they’d first been notified nearly an hour ago, but hadn’t bothered doing anything. There were no routine security patrols around the base either. It’s basically the sloppiest security effort since Netanyahu gave standdown orders on October 7.
Luckily for the police, those Middle-Eastern-looking boys were still hanging around 25 minutes later and were arrested under the Explosives Act.
We are told the vans had been driving around the base for hours before they parked up. It’s like they were making their arrival as visible as possible and then they just waited around to be caught. Either it was deliberate or they were just as useless as the police and base security.
Somehow it gets even worse. The vans were parked just six metres from houses, and the company names and telephone numbers on them were fake. Yet it took police around five hours to give evacuation orders. Maybe they knew the vans weren’t a threat, or maybe they’re staggeringly incompetent. I guess it could be both.
Prior to the incident, the base was on its highest alert, and one local said they’d been stopped at gunpoint by Americans. If you didn’t know, this is an American base on out soil, or a “fort” as Trump called it. The US president was giving interviews about the incident shortly after it happened. He said “it worked out great”, which is an odd choice of words, don’t you think?
Trump said the US had been investigating the suspects for a long time. Not sure if he meant “investigating” or actually meant “working with”. All I know is the British are insisting the arrests weren’t intelligence-led and that a farmer basically saved the country.
We are now being told by the war-hungry media it was Iran, Iran, Iran… or maybe Russia, according to one news reader who mumbled something about this is why we need tactical nukes. Yelp.
Now I’m still not clear what these “Iranians” were hoping to achieve. Park vans packed with explosives near a base and blow the whole thing up? Unless they had a nuke, best they’d achieve is damage to a few nearby houses and trees.
If the Iranians wanted to pull this off, they would not hire a bunch of kids to drive in circles for hours around a base that’s on its highest alert and then hide in the woods until they were caught. They would quickly launch drones and disappear.
It seems more likely this was a performance rather than a serious attack. Shortly after it happened, we had a news crew flying above Fairford in a helicopter, showing the location of B1 Stealth Bombers and other sensitive things. If there was a real threat, that’s the last thing they would allow.
Now you have to ask yourself which parties would benefit from this. Israel needs us to join its war, the US needs to keep using Fairford to bomb Iran, and the UK needs to justify its involvement.
Even though we attacked Iran first, they will probably spin it into something like this: “Iran is attacking the UK, even though we are a neutral party. Therefore we have no choice but to get involved”. This would be a terrible legal and moral argument, but it just needs to convince stupid people. We have to take sure stupid people are not taken in by this crap."
