Lord Stoddart takes the Government to task about its claimed knowledge that Russia is manufacturing Novichok in contravention of the Chemical Weapons Convention

By -


He said: "The Government’s evasive answer to my question about its knowledge of Novichok production in Russia suggests it neglected to inform the Organisation for the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons. If it had the information it claims, why did the Government not share it with the responsible authority? What’s the point of the Chemical Weapons Convention if vital intelligence is withheld by its signatories?" https://www.parliament.uk/…/writte…/Lords/2018-03-26/HL6659/

Fact or Fiction

F ollowing my post on propaganda I thought this was a classic example of what I meant. When the Braveheart film came out it was reported/misreported that polls rightly or wrongly had indicated a swing of Scottish Nationalism to the SNP. The comment from Mr Hall and the slight correction from Mr Christian, courtesy of Quora says it all. Content from Philip Brian Hall and Ed Christian: "I can tell you what one English resident of Scotland thinks of Sir William Wallace, since I was inspired by the alleged biopic to write him the following letter: Dear William, Let me reassure you no historically-knowledgeable person ever took seriously your so-called biopic. We know that you did not wear a kilt, paint your face, shoot arrows, attack stockades or meet the Queen of England. In fact William, it was Sitting Bull, a more modern person than you, who did all of these (except wear a kilt.) Your name was not really Wallace either. It was le Walys. You were descended from a trave...

Much denied EU Army development

By -
15 PAGE MILITARY DEVELOPMENT PLAN - PESCO (PERMANENT STRUCTURED COOPERATION) Over the years the EU has progressed towards developing its own army, air-force and navy, whilst denying the ambition to grow a fully integrated military force. Back in November of last year the EU published a training and development plan, (see link below), which must have taken years to negotiate and prepare..........the EU Army is emerging......... BUT the EU is not one country, did I hear you say? Well it soon will be the European Republic, if its ambitions are not thwarted by those member states, who wish to retain some semblance of identity and sovereignty! https://www.consilium.europa.eu/media/37028/table-pesco-projects.pdf

The folly of Labour's socialism

By -
I saw a tweet whilst browsing twitter the other day and it struck me that it was a throw away statement that actually, when, you dig deep, could have far reaching ramifications for a large industrial town in the North West. I was intrigued (some would say I need to get a life) about what this tweet could mean. I therefore decided to investigate. A theme began to emerge supported by a second tweet I saw later that day. The Labour party have without doubt moved to the far left of their raison d`etre of center left socialism established by their most successful Premier Tony Blair. Their manifesto is, to an awful lot of people simply frightening. Promises to borrow many hundreds of billions of pounds for a free giveaway extravaganza together with serious tax hikes is enough to cause anyone a sleepless night or two. But what about local levels? I have no connections whatsoever to St Helens in the North West. A large industrial town known for glass production, it is like many others s...
