Great read and information. Everything changes so everything may stay the same for the ones pulling the strings.

Thank you, AP, for a comprehensive look at us as we sink slowly into the sunset disliked by everyone, particularly by those who are giving us a good kicking.

Perhaps I could add a few thoughts - plus a 6 minute video describing the deliberate demoralisation programme we have been subject to and then a substack by a Canadian journalist that I hope is of interest –

The Inversion Matrix

https://youtu.be/sH3VWDJ6AW0?si=DNvs8Zm9-uN6UaIB

An insightful perspective and analysis of the Canadian position – as an example of the mechanisms applicable to the West in general.

It strikes me that everything in this world is dependent upon one’s power.

The UK has allowed its power to be stolen or sold whilst its citizens have no concept of the power that they frittered away or the reality that they are unprotected, unskilled, dependent on the whims of rogues and now non-participants in what was once a token democracy.

In an increasingly accelerating tech world with its accompanying specialisations, and thus the necessity to have the brightest brains in positions of authority, it is somewhat sobering to learn that our UK elite are dimmer than average. This is a logical consequence of natural selection. Over time, established organisations lose their ability to accept challenges, analysis and adapt, preferring instead to continue with occupational therapy whilst protecting their positions by choosing staff who will not question, let alone challenge, any event but simply obey orders and cover up the inevitable ‘slip-ups.’

On a brighter note, it’s heartening to see China (sorry for the opium wars) and rats (apologies for our treatment of you in world-wide labs) thriving. You both work very hard and exploit opportunities when they arise.

The greatest sadness, I think, is that we are still blessed and have access to the most inspiring and awesome examples of human thought and action that can strengthen and lift us up and address all obstacles. May we focus on those blessings.

On that note, please allow me to thank you and to wish you and yours a very Happy Easter.

This is awesome Zara - WOW what a find and I have sent it to my colleague, Dr. Gerry Brady at BOOM. We chat every week and collaborate. You are indeed a very special person, as I said before, you need to disseminate your wisdom on Substack! The world of our Great Creator today, needs you and me, we are in a spiritual battle:

"Finally, go on acquiring power in the Lord and in the mightiness of his strength. Put on the complete suit of armour from God so that you may be able to stand firm against the crafty acts of the Devil; because we have a struggle, not against blood and flesh, but against the governments, against the authorities, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the wicked spirit forces in the heavenly places.  For this reason take up the complete suit of armour from God, so that you may be able to resist in the wicked day and, after you have accomplished everything, to stand firm." [Ephesians 6: 10,13]

Excellent update on how not to run a country. It's always been the same in England, the top 2% of its citizens live a life of luxury while the 98% pay for this luxury. When a country is owned by a bank, the Red Sign one, what would you expect?

The only good news is the supreme court ruling, basically stating a natural fact that can't be altered by law. Such is the absurdism and deliberate social chaos being inflicted on the English people on a daily basis to distract and break them while the 2% basically rape them, an historic win by a few women who had to take their case all the way to the top court and fight a very long costly battle against the 2% is seen as a victory for the 98%.

Britain has always been broken and always will be. No army or navy, no big deal as who'd invade the place. The 2% will always be on top regardless.

Thank you Zara and likewise to you. Our good Lord came to tell us that this material world is not the end - we are indeed eternal spirits - experiencing a low-energy material world for fun & profit LOL!

"Keep on teaching these things and giving these exhortations. If any man teaches another doctrine and does not agree with the wholesome instruction, which is from our Lord Jesus Christ, nor with the teaching that is in harmony with godly devotion, he is puffed up with pride and does not understand anything. He is obsessed with arguments and debates about words. These things give rise to envy, strife, slander, and wicked suspicions" [1 Timothy 6:2,4]

Yes, that was good news indeed, but why do we even have a supreme court? Didn't we fight to get out of the European Empire so that we could vote our actual law makers in and out of power? Now law seems to have been taken out of the hands of our MPs, once again, into this strange 'supreme court'.

Yes Greg - it seems the courts have taken over the legislative powers of Parliament. One thing is 'prescedent' but courts can never supercede statuary powers - is what I was taught. Time that our government (such as it is) takes the reigns again!

A very sad state of affairs.

I see the British problem as follows.

They have been indoctrinated by the Royals and the Government.

Unfortunately the British people trusted Government and thought they would act in the interest of the citizens. Huge mistake.

I look back at my family where our great grandparents and grandparents were of British and Irish stock. My late Mom loved the Royals as did her Mother.

I was personally disgusted in the manner in which they persecuted the Afrikaners and the punishment metered out on their wives and children during the Boer wars was an absolute disgrace IMO. I am embarrassed by it.

Both my sisters married Afrikaners and on my youngest sister's now diseased. Her husband 's mother was a Miss Rorke from Rorke's Drift. My moms mother was married to one of the sons of Irish Soldier Andrew Trimble from the 6th Inniskilling Dragoons to fight the Boers during the First Anglo-Boer War. He didn't fight as he arrived after the war. Pretoria temporarily appointed him as the Republic’s acting chief detective.

I quote:

"Human history, especially that of the civilized world, reveals that the vast majority of people have always exhibited a strong tendency to readily rely on the ruling or formal authorities (or bodies of authority) for guidance and entities to place their trust into, despite that this trust has consistently and reliably been undermined by the reigning authorities –and thus, has largely been unjustified– throughout the ages."- Taken from Rolf Hefti. This was written about by psychologist Arthur Janov in 2015.

Many thanks SJ and a wonderful history. I live in Fish Hoek SA with my Afrkaans wife of 21 years. I sailed into Simons Town in 1999, married in 2003 and stayed, except for a sojour in UK following the GFC in 2009. I also write a Letter from SA each month, and all my work can be read FOC at my archive from 2018: https://www.theburningplatform.com/author/austrian-peter/ I think you can word search also.

And this SA History as you have related: https://austrianpeter.substack.com/p/boers-and-blood-no-ww3-dispossession?r=hhrlz&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true

Go well SJ

Just to set the record straight. Like so much good info - found that video on Lew Rockwell. As I was watching it, I was thinking I’m going to tell my wife about this - and Peter as well.

And I did.

Thanks for the mention, but the credit goes to Lew Rockwell, and the fine fella made the effort to make the video. It seemed genuine to me - and sad in a way.

Warm Regards P&S,

Ken

Yes, some links don't work Ken - no idea why - I'm not a techy so can only gaze into the distance on a sunny day here in the Cape!
