U.K.’s Advanced Censorship Laws Force Small Websites To Shut Down!

The United Kingdom’s rulers created an online censorship law that has now advanced to the point where small websites are being shut down. The authoritarians who authored the U.K.’s “Online Safety Act” are citing disproportionate liability and risk under the new law when it comes to these smaller web pages.

The new legislative landscape in the country, which is supposed to go into effect in full force in March is already claiming victims, according to a report by Reclaim the Net. The law is not providing any kind of safety for hundreds of small websites, including non-profit forums, that will be forced to shut down because they are unable to comply with the act.  Specifically, the websites are faced with what reports refer to as “disproportionate personal liability.”

The massive global censorship campaign has not slowed down as we inch our way to 2025. Much of it is still done, but it’s become a behind-the-scenes issue as those reporting on it have been more focused on who will rule over the United States for the next four years instead.

The fines for not complying with the U.K.’s new law go up to the equivalent of $25 million U.S. dollars, while the law also introduces new criminal offenses.

Ofcom, who is responsible for enforcing this act, has published dozens of measures that online services are supposed to implement by March 16th, 2025. Some of these measures include naming a person responsible and accountable for making sure a website or an online platform complies with the ruling class’s edicts.

The law is presented as a new way to efficiently tackle illegal content, and in particular, provide new ways to ensure the safety of children online, including by age verification (“age checking”), but many have pointed out it is just another way to censor things that those in charge don’t want others focused on.

Microcosm has already fallen victim to this new law, as it will be unable to comply by monitoring encrypted messages on the site. U.K. press reports have already been declaring this as one of the first examples of the harm this law will cause. The non-profit free hosting service Microcosm and its 300 sites, among them community hubs and forums dedicated to topics like cycling and tech, will all go down in March, unable to live up to the “disproportionately high personal liability.”

“It’s too vague and too broad and I don’t want to take that personal risk,” Microcosm’s Dee Kitchen is quoted. The fines alone just for disobeying could be enough to destroy the life of one single person who is to be “accountable” to the ruling class.

Ofcom has made it clear that “very small micro businesses” are also subject to the legislation, according to Reclaim the Net.

Bronze Age British Ate Their Enemies According to Gruesome Discovery

A study of early Bronze Age bones in Britain has revealed a shockingly violent and barbaric end for dozens of unfortunate individuals.

The remains, excavated from the Charterhouse Warren site in southwest England, show evidence of close quarters blunt force trauma, dismemberment, and cannibalism, all of which took place before the bodies were thrown down a 15-meter (49-foot) shaft.

It’s evidence of “a level and scale of violence that is unprecedented in British prehistory,” according to the international team of researchers behind the study – and raises plenty of questions about what actually went on here.

“We actually find more evidence for injuries to skeletons dating to the Neolithic period in Britain than the Early Bronze Age, so Charterhouse Warren stands out as something very unusual,” says archaeologist Rick Schulting, from the University of Oxford in the UK.

“It paints a considerably darker picture of the period than many would have expected.”

The team studied more than 3,000 bone fragments in total, making up the skeletons of at least 37 individuals. It’s thought the bones are all from one single violent event, dated somewhere between 2210 and 2010 BCE.

Together with skulls showing cracks and holes, the researchers also found signs of cuts and breaks made at the time of death – with those cuts in particular suggesting that some body parts made have been eaten by the killers.

These are not bodies that were treated with respect and carefully laid out in graves. Chemical analysis suggests these were all local people rather than outsiders, while there’s little evidence that these people were involved in a fight – pointing to them being caught by surprise in some kind of horrible massacre.

Plenty of cattle bones can be found at the same site, which suggests these victims weren’t executed out of a desperate need for food. The researchers think eating the flesh of the dead may have been a way to ‘other’ them – to dehumanize and treat them like animals.

UK’s National Weather and Climate Service Caught “Inventing” Data

Britain’s official meteorological service appears to be making up a worrying proportion of its published temperature readings, according to a new investigation. The most serious implication is that science could beis being corrupted in pursuit of green ideology; at the very least, it shows that UK weather-recoding infrastructure is in need of a serious upgrade.

When citizen journalist Ray Sanders made Freedom of Information requests to the Met Office and visited individual stations, he discovered that 103 weather stations, out of 302 sites supplying temperature averages, do not exist. This poses serious questions about how they are being used to collect useful scientific data, which in turn is used to inform climate policy.

For instance, in his English home county of Kent, Sanders observed that half of the eight official Met Office sites are in his words, “fiction.”. While Dungeness station closed in 1986, it apparently keeps on producing rolling temperature averages to the second decimal place of a degree. Like the stations alleged to be at Folkestone, Dover, and Gillingham, it does not have a classification from the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO), in contrast to various other recognised and listed Met Office sites.

Online inquiries about Dover are redirected to Dover Harbour (Beach)—the “nearest climate station”—yet Dover still manages to provide a full set of rolling 30-year temperature averages. A physical visit to the official site coordinates on Dover beach takes you to a place that would be submerged by the tide on a regular basis.

According to Sanders, the Met Office “declined to advise” him exactly how ‘data’ were being derived from 103 non-existent sites (out a total of 302). He asks

How would any reasonable observer know that the data was not real and simply ‘made up’ by a Government agency?

Demanding an “open declaration” of the likely inaccuracy of existing published data, Sanders hopes “to avoid other institutions and researchers using unreliable data and reaching erroneous conclusions.”

Taking to X, social commentator Toby Young posted:

Shocking evidence has emerged that points to the U.K. Met Office inventing temperature data from over 100 non-existent weather stations. One such ‘ghost’ station, Dungeness, closed in 1986 but still reports “observations”.

British Media Gloating Betrays Masterminds Behind Kirillov’s Killing

The reveling by the British news media over the assassination of a top Russian general in Moscow is revealing in several ways.

The reveling by the British news media over the assassination of a top Russian general in Moscow is revealing in several ways.

First of all, it is a sickening display of wretched so-called journalism. The celebratory tone in British media outlets at the sight of Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov’s bloodied corpse lying in the snow speaks volumes of a despicable lack of respect. It says something about the depraved depth of British culture.

By comparison, the reporting of the assassination by American media outlets was relatively mundane and matter-of-fact.

Not so in Britain. The British media were almost euphoric in their reaction.

The Pentagon’s response was significant. Spokesman Patrick Ryder denied any U.S. involvement in the killing. He said the Americans were not forewarned about the assassination and he added that the United States did not support such action.

Of course, such denials should always be treated with skepticism.

However, while the Americans had the decency to remain reserved, the British were giddy in their ghoulishness.

The London Times editorial board declared that Lt Gen. Kirillov was a “legitimate target” for assassination.

The Daily Telegraph ran an oped piece by Hamish de Bretton-Gordon with the headline: “Putin’s chemical weapons henchman Kirillov was a truly evil man. He deserved to die.”

Meanwhile, the BBC blithely used the Foreign Office’s description of Kirillov as a “notorious mouthpiece for Kremlin disinformation” to convey an implicit justification for murder.

Over at the Guardian, their Russophobic reporter, Luke Harding, abandoned all pretense of journalistic standards by glorifying Ukraine’s military intelligence service (SBU) for its “success,” adding: “The agency has cemented its reputation as an outfit that administers its own form of brutal extrajudicial justice. It is an abrupt and swift form of vengeance, delivered as if from the heavens.”

Leftist Officials Move To Delay British Elections As Their Approval Ratings Collapse

One of the most revealing narratives that surfaced during the 2024 US election campaign was the argument from establishment journalists that the Constitution and the voting system might be allowing “too much freedom” for the general public.  How can this be true?  Progressive activists claim that voter choice can be manipulated by abuses of free speech (disinformation) and that without controls on that speech the Constitution essentially has a built in self destruct mechanism.

Outlets like the New York Times made these arguments specifically in reference to the presidential bid of Donald Trump.  Trump, leftists assert, represents the rise of “far-right fascism” in America and the normal rules of the democratic process no longer apply.  They argue that he must be stopped at all costs.  

One could dismiss all this rhetoric as the coping and seething of sore losers, but it goes well beyond that.  

The self destructing democracy theory would be interesting, except that it’s driven completely by the arrogance, elitism and biases of political leftists hellbent on keeping power for themselves.  When a group of people believes that they represent the totality of the “greater good” and that their ideas should never be questioned or challenged because to do so is akin to heresy, that’s what we call zealotry.  This is exactly what progressives have become – So much so that across the western world they have deemed themselves righteous enough to delay or sabotage the election process.

As the madness of “Net Zero” accelerates, time has already run out for many of UK’s most vulnerable citizens

Not long ago, the UK’s Office for National Statistics (“ONS”) asked an interesting question: how has climate change affected the number of people who die from temperature-related effects in the UK?1

Their analysis opened with helpful speculation on scientific topics outside their area of competence: “Climate change is a substantial threat to human health in the UK…Heatwaves, wildfires, droughts, floods and severe storms – accepted to be linked to climate change – have increased globally in recent years. The Met Office found that the period 1991 to 2020 was 0.9 degrees Celsius warmer than the 1961 to 1990 average, while the 10 warmest years recorded occurred since 2002…Mental health is a growing concern linked to climate change.”

Of course, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (“IPCC”) have found no such link between human activities and the supposed climate threats they list2, the majority of Met Office weather stations from which the “10 warmest years” claim originate are discovered to produce “junk” and “super junk” data under international quality classification criteria3, and the mental health crisis is the consequence of institutions like the ONS peddling scientifically illiterate climate misinformation.

The results were horrifying – for climate catastrophists.

We found relatively little increase in deaths caused by warmer weather and a reduction in deaths caused by cold winters, leading to a net decrease in deaths.

Over the period 2001-2020, which was about 0.9 degrees Celsius warmer than the 1961 to 1990, 555,094 fewer people died from temperature effects.

Bank of England announces it will keep the names of non-bank financial institutions it bails out a secret

On Monday, the Bank of England announced it will hide the identities of any pension funds, insurers or hedge funds bailed out to avoid the stigma.  This new policy of secrecy to protect banks’ identity will begin in 2025 when the central bank launches its Contingent NBFI Repo Facility.

Also in 2025, the final parts of Basel III will be implemented.  Basel III introduces bail-ins, where account holders rather than the government bail out a failing bank.

But that’s not all. In the “second half of this decade,” i.e. any time from 2025, is “the earliest” the Bank of England would issue a central bank digital currency.

In the past, wars and oil embargoes have been used to justify implementing new global financial systems.  Could we be seeing signs they are preparing for a crisis that they won’t let go to waste?

WWIII Warning! UK Military Head Says We’re In “A Third Nuclear Age”

Admiral Sir Tony Radakin, the most senior officer in the British Armed Forces, warned the world this week that humanity has entered a “third nuclear age” where the threat of an all-out thermonuclear war is more possible than ever before.

Speaking to the Royal United Services Institute for Defence and Security Studies (RUSI) think tank on Wednesday, Radakin discussed the current state of England’s nuclear security.

“The security outlook is more contested, more ambiguous and more dangerous than we have known in our careers,” he stated, telling members of RUSI that “a third nuclear age is upon us.”

Radakin, who currently serves as the UK’s Chief of the Defence Staff, described the Cold War as the “first nuclear age” that was allegedly managed by leaders with “the logic of deterrence.”

The “second nuclear age” came in the 1990s when “nuclear non-proliferation” contributed to a safer world, according to the UK admiral.

He then blamed Russian President Vladimir Putin for the current nuclear age, saying, “From Russia we have seen wild threats of tactical nuclear use, large scale nuclear exercises and simulated attacks against NATO countries, all designed to coerce us from taking the action required to maintain stability… Putin believes in a historic fiction.”

However, Radakin suggested Russia would likely not launch a direct attack on the UK because the NATO retaliation would be “overwhelming.”

Mystery craft seen swarming over secretive UK airbases feared to have ‘sinister motive’

An expert has described the latest wave of drone activity over NATO‘s nuclear airbases in the UK as “particularly sinister.”

Over the past year, US military airbases have been plagued by several incursions from mysterious unidentified craft. Starting with a swarm of mysterious drone-like objects over Langley Air Force Base in Virginia over Christmas 2023, the spate of bizarre drone intrusions has reached a peak this month, with dozens of sightings over bases both in the US and here in the UK.

The UFO community has been running wild with speculation about extraterrestrial visitors, focusing on the fact that many of the military sites targeted store nuclear weapons. But there’s a much more plausible – and much more worrying – explanation. That’s according to Professor David Dunn, a lecturer in political since and international studies at the University of Birmingham.

He says that the most likely cause of this rash of UAP sightings is drones being flown by operatives of some hostile power who are attempting to demonstrate the vulnerability of NATO bases, as well as to intimidate service personnel working there.

Speaking to science filmmaker Simon Holland about the nightly flights over NATO bases, he said: “It’s disruptive first of all it’s demonstrating and signalling vulnerability and capability and it’s also about preparation and signalling that preparation. In particular, he says, the drones are not only hovering over aircraft on the ground at these bases, they’ve also being seen lurking near servicemen’s married quarters at bases such as Kirkwall.

He added: “This is not just one or two drones like in Gatwick airport a few years ago. This is a coordinated incursion by a whole variety of different drones that are clearly part of a plan by a sophisticated actor.”

Arla’s Bovaer food additive is not food, it is a drug

The UK Food Standards Agency is insisting Bovaer is “safe.”  A spokesman told MailOnline: “Milk from cows given Bovaer, a feed additive used to reduce methane emissions, is safe to drink.”

On Monday, The Standard said,  “On 26 November, Arla announced a new project that it hopes will cut the UK’s methane emissions.  Methane is a greenhouse gas and contributes to climate change … The initiative is part of Arla’s wider commitment to reduce the environmental impact of its dairy production. The organisation is aiming to reduce its CO2 emissions by 30 per cent by 2030.”

Using the excuse “to reduce methane emissions” and “CO2 emissions” and then tying it to Agenda 2030’s deadline of 2030, should raise an immediate red flag to anyone who has done even a little research in the last few years. 

There is no anthropogenic climate change crisis, and, as we mentioned in our article last week, methane is an important part of the biogenic carbon cycle.  As we all know from primary school lessons, carbon dioxide (CO2) is the elixir of life, supporting plants since the world began and making virtually all life on Earth possible.

The whole false anthropogenic climate change narrative should have disintegrated in 2009 when the Climategate emails were released.  But such is the determination, and money, of those who want to keep the UN’s agenda alive.
