Foreign nationals have accounted for almost 67% of arrests for sexual offenses in the City of London.

Foreigners are more than three times as likely to be arrested for sex crimes in the UK as British citizens, according to a first-of-its-kind analysis by the Centre for Migration Control using data from the Home Office and the Office for National Statistics (ONS).

The report comes amid claims that the government has purposefully suppressed information on migrant crime stats, as well as a renewed uproar over institutional cover-ups in the 'grooming gangs' scandal.

Groups of men across the UK, predominantly of Pakistani origin, have reportedly raped and tortured thousands of underage girls in towns across northern England over the last two decades.

Police in England and Wales arrested more than 9,000 foreign nationals for sexual offenses between January and October last year, according to the data, which was released through Freedom of Information (FOI) requests. That figure represented 26.1% of the total estimated 35,000 arrests for sexual offenses.

Pfizer and other sociopaths

Pfizer
"...if we fail, then the whole world, including the United States, including all that we have known and cared for, will sink into the abyss of a new Dark Age made more sinister, and perhaps more protracted, by the lights of perverted science."
Winston Churchill spoke these words just before the Battle of Britain, but if he were alive today he could be referring to the Covid 'pandemic'. His reference to "the lights of perverted science" would have rendered his words even more fitting in the fight against rule by Big Pharma.

In an earlier essay I argued that New Zealand, together with many other nominally 'democratic' countries, is fascist, and in a follow-up, I went on to argue that Pfizer and other Big Pharma corporations are organized crime networks operating what amounts to a global protection racket.

What I left unsaid was that Pfizer and other corporations are also sociopathic - the purpose of this essay.

The Zuck axes 'politically biased' factchecking on Facebook

Facebook's parent company will replace the program with Musk-inspired 'community notes' in the US

Meta, the parent company of Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp and Threads, announced on Tuesday that it will discontinue its controversial third-party fact-checking program in the US. In a video address, CEO Mark Zuckerberg has admitted the services were "too politically biased" and "have destroyed more trust than they've created."

"What started as a movement to be more inclusive has increasingly been used to shut down opinions and shut out people with different ideas, and it's gone too far," Zuckerberg said.

The company plans to implement a "Community Notes" system, allowing users to flag potentially misleading posts for additional context, similar to the model used by Tesla CEO Elon Musk's platform X (formerly Twitter). It will also get rid of rules that had restrictions on topics like immigration and gender identity.

Comment: A little late in the game, but okay . . . .

Bowing to a mix of court rulings, consumer backlash, and rational attentiveness to self-interest, US institutions are abandoning the cult of diversity, equity and inclusion. The latest domino to fall is an American icon: McDonald's on Monday announced it is curtailing many of its diversity initiatives.

The news came in an open letter to McDonald's its owner/operators, employees and suppliers. Among other factors influencing the move away from DEI, the company pointed to the Supreme Court's 2023 ruling that struck down race-centric admissions practice. "We...assessed the shifting legal landscape to anticipate how this ruling may impact corporations such as McDonald's," the firm wrote.

Devils in the Machine - Driving an Electric Car is Fake Environmentalism

Electric Car


In Sweden there exists an electrified road for Electric Vehicles (EVs) to charge while driving[1].

The 2 km stretch of road is the world's first of its kind, and an expansion of a further 3,000 km of electric road by 2045 is planned. It all sounds rather cool and futuristic, and I am reminded of a song lyric from the 1980s, the singer Eddie Grant sang "we're gonna rock onto Electric Avenue".

Electric re-charging Lane
However, let us consider whether these expensive EVs are actually environmentally friendly or are yet mega-corporate marketing scam? This article demonstrates that the latter is the case. A 'devastator' has been described as a lie so big it devastates and bewilders, "buy an electric car to save the planet" is one such devastator (see also the book CO2 Climate Hoax and Godless Fake Science).

The reality is that the misled environmentalists buying these cars are suckers for mega-corporate advertising, ignorantly proud of their so-called low-carbon eco-cars. Apparently, unaware that the manufacture of millions of electric car batteries, requires huge mining operations to acquire and refine large quantities of rare earth metals, such as lithium, rhodium and cobalt; that these metals have to be mined out of the ground using machinery which is powered by carbon-emitting vehicles powered by diesel or petrol; and importantly, that the mining and refining processes can cause significant and extensive pollution to land, air and water systems, for example in rural China and Mongolia[2]. Unlike the fake climate agenda, these are real environmental problems.

Below is a picture of a lithium leach field. This is what your EV batteries are made of. It is so neuro-toxic that a bird landing on this stuff dies in minutes. Take a guess what it does to your nervous system? Pat yourself on the back for saving the environment.

'On average, Germans are poorer' — shocking report for the EU's largest economy

Germany may be facing the longest economic crisis in its post-World War II history

Germany could enter its third year of economic recession in 2025, according to a report out of the Handelsblatt Research Institute (HRI), cited by the Mandiner news portal, meaning it will face the longest economic crisis in its post-World War II history.

Germany, the European Union's largest economy, may shrink by 0.1 percent this year after a contraction of 0.3 percent in 2024 and 2023.

"The German economy is in the midst of the biggest crisis in post-war history," said Bert Rürup, chief economist at HRI. "The pandemic, the energy crisis, and inflation have made Germans poorer on average."

Comment: The energy crisis fueling the downturn is self-inflicted. Germany led the charge on behalf of Washington, for "liberating" Europe from cheap, reliable supplies of Russian gas, and applauded when Ukraine declined to renew the transit agreement with Russia. Russia obliged. But it's still Putin's fault.



Looks like Ukraine got a short-term two-fer for its long-term stupidity. Transnistria has been a thorn in its side for decades.


This will not end well.

The political tides in Europe are turning against the Empire

A radical change in mood among the people is more and more evident. Is it a tsunami in the making?

On Sunday, 29 December 2024, Croatia held presidential elections. The incumbent President Zoran Milanović won the first round in a landslide against the pro-globalist challenger Dragan Primorac. Primorac was strongly backed by the ruling party, the Croatian Democratic Union, led by the Prime Minister Andrej Plenković who has been a loyal supporter of NATO, US, UK and EU policies. In winning the Presidency, the ruling party would have captured all of Croatia's key institutions of government.

(Another) Putin's stooge wins

To push their candidate over the line the ruling establishment and the media relentlessly demonized President Milanović as Putin's stooge and a pro-Russian player on account of his unwillingness to engage Croatian troops in NATO's excellent adventures in Ukraine. Well, their cunning plan backfired spectacularly and Putin's stooge won nearly 50% of the popular vote vs. less than 20% for the pro-freedom & democracy challenger. That's about as close as it gets to a landslide in Croatian politics.

It would appear that, not only is there no appetite for the Empire and its military misadventures, but below the surface, the mood toward Russia is changing, and changing in a big way.

The H-1B system is undercutting American workers: Just how bad is it?

In 2011, Rep. Zoe Lofgren, a Democrat who has represented Silicon Valley for many years, observed that the average wage for a computer-systems analyst in her district was $92,000, but that the US government allowed foreign workers using H-1B visas to take these jobs at a so-called prevailing wage of $52,000. "Small wonder there's a problem here," Lofgren said. "We can't have people coming in and undercutting the American educated workforce."

As Lofgren noted, H-1B visas undercut the wages of American workers by design. But the harms caused by these high-skill visas go beyond even what many critics of the system have recognized. Critics have focused on how H-1B visas are used by disreputable "body shops" that contract out cheap foreign labor, but these visas are also relied on by some of America's leading tech firms and educational institutions. Specifically, they are used to help foreign workers gain green cards, based on employer sponsorship. A typical pattern starts with an international student earning a STEM degree, usually a master's or doctorate at a US university, then being hired by a US employer. The employer then starts sponsorship for permanent residence, with the student holding an H-1B work visa until the green card is approved.
