I was pleasantly surprised that it actually turned out that way. You know I'm talking about the latest Trump-Putin conversation of course. 'Outcome of Putin-Trump call exceeds skeptics’ expectations, expert says' - TASS - March 19, 2025 It is difficult to understand how an invitation to a contest over a small piece of vulcanised rubber...

“Everything we’ve been told about climate change and food security is wrong.” – New Report
I have been saying this for around 18 months now. It is a complete tragedy. A crime of massive proportions even. A crime of greater proportions even than the equally tragic COVID farce. Somebody must pay. Perhaps a lot of somebodies - for telling lies. Lies that have almost turned our world into a dead... Continue Reading →
PM Albanese Wants to Send Aussie Troops to Ukraine? Ha-Ha-Ha-Hah! What a Maroon!!
'Albanese to join Ukraine 'coalition of the willing' peacekeeping call' - ABC News - March 14, 2025 I realise Albanese is becoming known for making stupid ideas not work, but this one actually takes the biscuit, the cake, and the bun. Ha-Ha-Ha-Hah! (sorry, laughing myself silly at this point). There was a response to this... Continue Reading →
Hey, Take a Look at This…
Here is something quite notable if you follow the ebbs and flows of Arctic Sea Ice Extent. March 15th this year, because of the extra day inserted last year (a Leap Year) equates to March 14th last year in terms of the day number from start of year. This year has reached its current peak... Continue Reading →
Ultimatums – Exactly As I said Yesterday…

It’s Time for the US to Receive its Own Ultimatums
I have always considered the writings of William Schryver (well, since I have known of the man anyway) to be one of the sanest and steadfast voices of anti-imperialism that I know of. His latest, succinct but pointed piece is no exception. Actually, on afterthought, it is something of an exceptional exception in that it... Continue Reading →
An Erstwhile China – Still ‘standing firm’ “in the right side of history”
I wanted to use the term of complex and often misunderstood meaning, 'erstwhile', in relation to China, modern China - itself a term of complex and often misunderstood meaning. But since 'erstwhile' is usually taken to refer to someone or something whose star once, somewhere back in time, shone brightly compared to others, but now... Continue Reading →
Beware the Ides of March
On the 14th of March, tomorrow as I write, there will be a Full Moon - with all the implications which have grown over the years with such phenomena. But this particular Full Moon, is what once marked the beginning of the Roman Lunar calendar. But you can't attach important events to phases of the... Continue Reading →
‘Russia Has A Clear Conscience’ – Lavrov – ‘…and not because we don’t use it very much,’ – (with a smile)
Of course Russia has a clear conscience. They are a conscientious people, dedicated to truth, proper behaviour, and the noble cause of their nation throughout its long history. Any opinion running contrary to that statement carries the lingering stench of the abject depravity of Western media or cultural manipulation. I have just watched the 91... Continue Reading →
