offsite link The Faux-Radicalism of Kneecap Wed Apr 30, 2025 19:00 | Andrew Doyle
Kneecap's vocal support for Hamas and call for fans to murder Tory MPs is obviously reprehensible. But it's just for show, says Andrew Doyle. The police shouldn't waste their time investigating rappers.

offsite link Pope Francis?s Liberalism is Not Why Young People Are Returning to Church Wed Apr 30, 2025 11:00 | Dr Roger Watson

This new great ideology democratic and non-political, through the proposizione of a new and revolutionary economic model, succeeds to resolve problems definitively millenarians which unemployment, the poverty, the inflation, the discontinuity of the economic increase, the deficit of the public budget, the instability financial institution. Its greater objective is the peace. read full story / add a comment

George Clinton, ex president of the USA, usually publishes opinion pieces in the Italian daily "la reppublica", but this week he launched his European opinion from the French "Le Monde" whence it has now been translated to spanish and is exciting the comment of big newspapers across the continent as being a heavy weight support of a "new theory".

That theory to put it most basically, is "the US & UK have gone mad". Or to use Clinton's words "we can not hide behind a wall or kill all our enemies" [the implication being that is exactly the policy wish].

Or to use the phrase I used on imc uk after the july bombings, "they entered psychosis". read full story / add a comment

the Swift Tuttle comet's debris annually colides with the planet Earth in mid August giving us all shooting stars which are called the Perseids.

You may approach this simple cosmic fact with awe and superstition, gasping and pointing and mkaing little wishes for world peace or higher wages or you may choose to be scientific about it and simply record time, brightness and suspected location of the drop. Its up to you.

The last time the comet itself was visible was in 1992, someday that comet will collide with us but not yet. read full story / add a comment
