A local Labour pamphlet came through the door recently.

It was interesting to read because it highlighted the disjointed thinking of Members of Parliament i.e. what they want is one thing but how things are going to be delivered are not mentioned.

Admittedly it is only a front and back info sheet (see images below) yet I thought it worthy enough of doing a podcast episode about it.

In this podcast episode I will question what is written on it, especially with regards to:

* Housing

* Energy

* Social Disorder

* Job Creation

I also mention podcast episodes with John Carter and Frank Wright. You can find these excellent podcasts below:

Energy

Yesterday was a very dark day for UK Energy Policy.

The UK now no longer produces electricity from coal power, ending a 142 year relationship.

Article

A blast furnace in Port Talbot (South Wales) has also closed its doors as of 16:00 on Monday 30th September 2024. A loss of 2,800 jobs is bad enough but, as Doomberg mentioned, it is what is happening to the area afterwards that is truly damning.

Article

If you have not already listened to the podcast with Doomberg then I highly recommend that you do so.

I also wrote about standing charges in this article.

Chickens

Today is also a very sad day because if you own chickens then you have to now register them with the UK Government. Of course, this is all in the name of protecting the chickens from bird flu!!!

This will give you an idea of what was proposed and is now a law.

The Government is encroaching on our private lives as much as possible and this really is turning into a very sad country.

Our energy policy is designed to make us much poorer and now the government wants to know who owns what poultry.

Maybe we really are turning into the United Soviet States of Britain (USSB)

Todays episode is an incredibly wide ranging conversation with Tom Luongo from Gold, Goats ‘N Guns. There was no battle plan for this, it was simply a case of turning on the microphones, having a blast and letting the conversation flow.

A wide range of subjects were covered, including:

* Why the Fed cut by 50bps and not 25, 75 or 100bps

* Why Tom thoroughly dislikes the ‘British Establishment’ - including an insight into the US Civil War

* Davos and their unrelenting control of everything

* Ukraine and the fact that they are screwed

* How and why we have a lot of challenges facing us today

A massive thank you to Tom for taking time out of his hectic schedule in order to have a chat and to give his thoughts on the world!

Todays episode offers an incredible insight into all things to do with US + Global Banking, The Federal Reserve and Gold.

Dr Nomi Prins is a geo-macro economist, Founder of PRINSIGHTS GLOBAL, and best-selling author of 7 books. She is a tireless advocate of real financial reform including the establishment of a National Infrastructure Bank, the legislation for which she has been working on for over 4 years and it’s currently making its way through Congress.

In this episode we discuss:

* The recent Fed rate cut

* Why the Fed is putting Wall Street over Main Street

* Basel III Regulations

* The intricacies of the Global Banking System

* Why the US-China rivalry is a good signal for gold

It was brilliant to sit down with Dr Nomi Prins and I hope that you enjoy this podcast as much as it was a pleasure to record.

I’d also highly recommend checking out these 2 articles.

Felt compelled to do this podcast due to the fact that there were a lot of issues at the recent Notting Hill Carnival. Funnily enough, these issues have not been widely reported despite there being:

* Stabbings

* Sexual Assaults

* Deaths

* Indecencies towards police and others

We are living in a a continually divided world.

I’d highly recommend listening to Frank Wright and Broken Britain HERE
