No CommentsWhen the National Lottery was first launched in 1994, there was a widespread belief amongst many - that persists to this day - that this ostensibly get-rich-quick scheme was really nothing but a tax on the poor and vulnerable. After all, it is they who primarily fund the lottery, as it is they who most […]

No Comments(Monday Memories are a Miri’s Massive Missive variation on the usual ‘Throwback Thursday’ theme…) I first published the below article a year ago this week, and as such, Substack has suggested I share it again, for the benefit of newer readers. It’s a particularly poignant suggestion really, because last Wednesday, I attended the funeral of […]

No CommentsIt would be fair to say that, as a consequence of my (massive) musings on this site, I am often in trouble. Not, however, with the normies (I think they've concluded I'm so far gone, there's no longer any point even trying - even John Bye doesn't expose me any more, despite the fact I've […]

No CommentsAs regular readers know, I often opine at this site about the politician-turned-persecuted-pearl-clutching-people's hero, Andrew Bridgen (don't worry, this article isn't about him... although I would still really like to know what is happening with the turnips). The inevitable conclusion I have always come to about Bridgen is: not evil, just stupid. Stupid, vain, and […]

No CommentsFor quite some time, I and other comparably cogitating commentators, have been predicting the potential of "The Great Reveal". A stage-managed and scripted event designed to reinforce faith in the 'authorities' who coordinate said reveal, we always knew the harms of the Covid injections were set to come to light eventually, since this fact was […]

No CommentsWhen I was 12, I - like many inhabiting this age bracket - have to say I regarded myself as rather cool. In many ways, it was quite an improbable self-evaluation, since my favourite band was Take That and I was firmly convinced that denim crop tops with dungaree straps were the last word in […]

No CommentsYou may or may not be aware (and probably aren't, to be fair) that ox sacrifice has historically been a practice in various religions and cultures, including ancient Greece, ancient Rome, and the Rek Dinka of Southern Sudan. Ox sacrifice is also repeatedly mentioned in the Bible, including at Isiah 66:3, Deuteronomy 17, and Exodus […]

No CommentsAlternate title, "Andrew bloody Bridgen again...." - but I thought what I went with was both slightly more poetic, and substantially more accurate, in terms of concisely encapsulating what the interminable bloody Bridgen is up to now... Newer readers may wish to familiarise themselves with the history of Mr. Bridgen's "persecution", not least that which […]

No CommentsIt's been quite a long time since I was last told off by a teacher (and, in fact, the last time I recall it, it was in a sardonic form of 'congratulations', as apparently I had managed to be late for my final year of school 87 times - a record!), but I got quite […]

No CommentsOkay, I'm mixing my metaphors a bit here, but I think you may nevertheless get the point... In response to the UK's Prime Minister Keir Starmer declaring he "wouldn't tell people to have more children", former Tory MP Miriam Cates said: "Very concerning that the Prime Minister doesn’t appear to understand the basic mathematical problem […]
