There’s a great line in the movie Protocol with (((Goldie Hawn))), which goes something along the lines of “as you can see from the map, this country is in a very strategic location.”
Couldn’t find the clip, but she was reasonably funny. I was studying International Relations at the time when I saw the first 40 minutes or so. Learned more from it than I did in seven years at university. Let’s look at a map of the South Pacific:
As you can see from the map, the Solomon Islands are in a very strategic location:
China and Solomon Islands are set to sign off on a security deal that will allow Chinese warships to be based in the Pacific and shift the balance of power in Australia’s region.
The agreement will give China the power to use its military to protect the safety of Chinese personnel and major projects in Solomon Islands and give Beijing a base for its navy less than 2000 kilometres off Australia’s coast. The base would be the first time Australia has had a strategic adversary within striking distance of its coastline since World War II.
“China may, according to its own needs and with the consent of Solomon Islands, make ship visits to, carry out logistical replenishment in and have stopover and transition in the Solomon Islands,” the draft framework agreement states.
“Solomon Islands may, according to its own needs, request China to send police, armed police, military personnel and other law enforcement and armed forces to Solomon Islands to assist in maintaining social order, protecting people’s lives and property.”
Consider that Russia has committed to war against the Ukraine precisely because NATO was using Ukraine to encircle Russia and place weapons on its border. The situation posed a clear and present danger to its existence as a nation. The Solomon Islands is to Australia what Ukraine is to Russia, what Taiwan is to China, what East Timor is to Indonesia, what Cuba was to America, and what Israel is to the jews who run America.
It’s an unsinkable aircraft carrier right on our doorstep. If China signs more deals with other Pacific Island shitholes they can encircle us and cut us off from the American fleet.
It’s a pretty big deal. Even one of the muttons who wishes she was in the Mean Girls club can see it:
When the Libs made huge cuts to the aid budget from 2014 on, we warned again and again it could have potential serious security implications in our Pacific region. I really regret it has come to this. https://t.co/9t2IGfxYLN
In one fell swoop she admits that international aid has nothing to do with helping ordinary people and everything to do with convincing third world shitholes to take your side in the global game of empires.
I know what you’re all thinking though. Who even cares? The Australian government is openly and deliberately replacing its own people. After World War 2 we were told we needed to populate or perish, ie we had to grow our population or else the Asians would take us over. So we opened the doors to mass immigration, then mass Asian immigration, and now the Australian continent is populating while its people perish.
30 years ago we were told that if we opened up to Chinese trade it would expand the Chinese middle class who would then demand liberal democratic reform. It was literally a plan to turn Chinese people into effete Westerners in the vague hope that they would overthrow their own government. Naturally it failed spectacularly. The Chinese are more confident and nationalist than ever, they were practically given the majority of our heavy industry and 1-2 million of their colonists now occupy our territory.
The Australian government has spent the last two years treating the Australian people no better than the Chinese government treats its own, placing entire cities under house arrest, brutalising dissidents and using economic terrorism to coerce millions of Aussies into taking a poison.
We now have a choice between death, destruction and slavery on the one hand and death, destruction and slavery on the other.
In the past nearly everyone married, even the very poor. Today in the Third World it remains as it was in the First World only decades ago. Most people marry, the rich, the poor and nearly everyone in between. Of course there were exceptions but still roughly 90% of adults married. Today that is not true in the First World, why is that?
When I first started thinking about this I was thinking about men, about why I knew so many men who were not married, but then I realised that women who are poor also do not marry. But only in the First World and it is something that largely goes unmentioned. Because it feeds into that idea that we all have more options and that people are not marrying because they now have the option not too. But as I wrote in Liberalism, More Options, Less Choice more options do not really mean more choice and I think that is what we have here. People are finding it harder to marry and I think there are six basic reasons that all interplay with each other that explain why
Free love and being forever young
Selfishness
Money
Prestige
Society and meeting up
Divorce
Let me go through each and try to explain why they contribute to the poor not marrying.
Free Love and being forever young
Since the 1960’s an idea has gained currency, it certainly didn’t start in the 1960’s, no the idea was old when Moses was a boy. The idea was that life shouldn’t have consequences, it’s an old idea because it is so appealing. No mistakes, no regrets, I’ve made mistakes and I have regrets, wouldn’t it be wonderful if we lived in a world where that didn’t happen, a world wehre it is in fact impossible. The idea that life should have no consequences is all around us, you don’t have to look too hard to find it. Free love and being young forever are very much a part of this philosophy. Sex without consequences, sex just for fun, sex just to pass the time, no pregnancies, no sexual diseases, no emotions that make everything awkward and embarrassing. And as the old saying goes “Youth is wasted on the young”, maybe it is but what if you could be young forever? Would you take it? Many do or at least they try to be young forever. The problem with both is sex does have consequences and being young forever is impossible and any attempt to do so is like repairing an old tire, the repair won’t last forever. If it won’t last forever then it’s a trick and either you’re fooling yourself or you’re trying to fool someone else, but at all times it’s still a trick.
What does this have to do with marriage or the lack of marriage? These ideas discourage people from thinking about their future, it stops them from making plans or decisions. If life has no consequences then it lacks meaning. Which is a strange thought at first. How can one mean the other? Because all your decisions are so small and trivial that your entire life loses it lustre. When you think of a person who is jaded with life you don’t think of a virgin, no you think of someone who has had so much sex that even that natural high means nothing, it has lost its lustre. If life has no consequences then you can delay everything, there is no hurry because there are no consequences. You cannot make a mistake and you should have no regrets. Marriage is just one option and a distant one at that.
Selfishness
People have always been selfish, but in the past it was regarded as a bad thing, something to try and avoid or push away, to fight against. Today people still talk about selfishness being bad, but we know that it is at one and the same time encouraged. Buy things with credit, pay it back at some distant future time, have sex without consequences with as many partners as your genitals can handle. This isn’t by any means a complete list, no that would take too long. The problem with selfishness is that it concentrates our attention on only one person. Everyone else is present but unimportant. How do I feel? What do I want? Why can’t I have that now? Why should I only have one girlfriend at a time? It’s all about me, all about the self. Where does another person fit into this life? There is no room and secondly it discourages people from changing to accommodate another person. Take me as I am or get lost. Sadly as we get older that selfishness becomes part of us and it becomes harder to fit another person into your life. How do you marry when you have learnt to be so selfish and to do it so well?
Money
We all need money to live, that’s a given. But money means more than just numbers and more than just its buying power. Of course those things are important but money is also important because we earnt it, because it belongs to us and because it gives us stability. For most of us that money will come from a wage and you earn a wage by working in a job. But when jobs are scarce or you are unable to work then your pile of money doesn’t grow. You have lost the number, you have lost that buying power, you have also lost the pride of earning that money and finally the stability that a wage provides.
Hardly any man cares how much money a woman makes, some do but most don’t. They care about how a woman looks, her personality and her intelligence, but not her money. For a woman that’s not true, she cares very much about a man’s money, some women are gold diggers, but most women care because they want to be able to rely on her man to look after her, even if she doesn’t need it. When a woman becomes a mother that is a very important consideration. But the economy has changed and steady employment, something common for recent generations has largely disappeared. There was once an idea that a man would have a wife, children and a job, a single job for his entire life. That is now gone, hardly any workers at any level have that security anymore. Jobs are casual, even if you’re a full time employee. Security is a very important thing, it allows people to take risks and to prepare for the future. But when jobs are not secure then all of that is gone. A man without regular employment will never marry, it is simply impossible.
Another issue is that the more money a woman earns means that any man who courts her must make at minimum the same as her. Of course it’s better if he earns more money, but when women are given preference in both employment and promotions, that puts both men and women in an impossible position. A woman wants a man who is more successful than her, but each step up the ladder means there are less men available. Secondly, those men who are successful now have a large number of women to choose from, much larger than they would normally have available to them. Non of this supports marriage.
Nor does single parents’ benefits, it replaces a husband with the Government, but the Government cannot love them, nor can it help take the load of parenting. What it encourages is to split families, a truly evil thing.
Prestige
Money not only provides income but it provides prestige, as do things like job titles. I recently heard someone say men don’t like fancy cars, but women do so men have learnt to like fancy cars. I don’t agree that men don’t like fancy cars, but behind that is the idea that even if men hated fancy cars they would still like to drive them because of the effect it has on women, maybe. But why do women like fancy cars? Because they are not only a sign of how much money a man has but a prestige item. What is prestige? It is anything that signals how much wealth, power or influence a person has. But marriage has lost prestige and the reason is a part of everything in this article.
Society and meeting up
We all accept that society has changed and continues to change, accepting that fact doesn’t mean we like or approve of it. Once people knew their neighbours, they knew their names and their jobs, they knew where they worked and they knew their family. Of course there have always been loners but it was harder, much harder in the past, even only a few decades ago to be nearly invisible as it is now. But part of that society was that people met a lot of other people just like them. Neighbours, neighbours’ family, neighbours’ friends, shopkeepers and their staff and clubs and other social organisations. But today, and for decades all of those things, those connections have been vanishing. How do you meet people when there are so few chances to really meet people? At nightclubs, on dating websites? Well people have and do meet people through those methods. But how many people do you know who have married after they met in a nightclub? What about internet dating? In 2012 I was the best man at a friend’s wedding, he met a real and quite attractive women on World of Warcraft!
That is not a dating strategy, that is just stupid blind luck…. all I can say is thank God for stupid blind luck. Sadly stupid blind luck is not a reliable business partner. If that wasn’t the case we could all just lie back and relax. The internet gives us a false idea of the world, because it allows us to think that we have unlimited options, another case of more options less choice. But in reality we don’t have more options because it is far too easy to dismiss people. You‘re unlikely to run into them while shopping, or get an earful about what a bad person you are from your neighbour. Because people on the internet are disposable, they are not flesh and blood people. Of course in reality they are but the internet is not reality it is a distortion of reality and it is as part of that distortion that they are a part of our life. Of course just as they are disposable, so are you and in no way does that encourage real connections.
Divorce
Nothing has harmed marriage more than no fault divorce, it has attacked the idea that marriage is a sacred union of one man and one woman for life. That only God, a supernatural being has the power to undo this sacred union. Now it is only an artificial union between two contractors, it’s a business arrangement. A contract between two autonomous individuals and nothing to do with God, or tradition, or family, or community, or permanence. If you want to get out no worries, you can get out. Those who gave us no fault divorce said they were giving us options, making us free. But we never asked for that option and loneliness is not freedom. Divorce not only destroys existing families, it also stops new families from coming into existence as it destroys the security that marriage once provided. No matter how loving, no matter how rich, no matter what you do there is no defence against no fault divorce. The permanence of marriage is gone, it can be rebuilt but first we must understand how evil no fault divorce is.
If marriage is to recover than the casual connections that allowed real people to meet other real people in a natural setting needs to be rebuild. No fault divorce needs to be destroyed. Jobs need to be made more secure and male employment needs to be a priority. And the idea that we can live a life without consequences needs to be put back into the box it came out of. It is not possible to change human nature, but it is possible to change everything else that I’ve written about here.

Good on him. Buddy is a brilliant footballer and his record is a testament to his skill, hard work and perseverance. A player kicking 100 goals for the season was pretty common back in the day but rare in modern football. 1000 goals though, well he’s only the sixth player to do it.
I love the unspoken tradition that the crowd runs onto the field to congratulate the footballer and nearly crushes him to death for his troubles, and I love that Buddy relished it.
The Sydney Swans are on the hunt for the lucky fan who caught the ball from AFL star Lance Franklin’s historic 1000th goal last night.
The Swans have offered a rare opportunity to meet ‘Buddy’ in exchange for a safe return of the ball. #9News
These are amazing scenes, a reminder of Old Australia, ie what Australia used to be before it was turned gay, brown, and power was given to the fat lesbians in the OH&S Department. You’re not supposed to run onto the oval when the sportsballers are playing anymore. It used to happen. If you were lucky a naked female stripper would run on at just the right moment in the third quarter to stop Richmond’s momentum dead in its tracks. Premierships could be decided on such things. Call it audience participation. The fat lesbians in the Musicology Department love that sort of thing.
At some point though the fat lesbians in the OH&S department weaponised the phrase “duty of care” and started fining people $10,000 for running on the ground. They even banned kids from kicking the footy on the field at the end of the match.
But even the fat lesbians knew they couldn’t stop tens of thousands of Aussies from running onto the SCG when Buddy kicked 1000. There was no code of conduct, no memo, no official email that said the fans were allowed to do it. It’s just that Aussies still remember that that’s what you do when a footballer kicks 1000 goals.
Fat lesbians hate that sort of thing, but there is nothing they can do about it – which is precisely why they hate it. They’re used to people cowering and saying sorry if they disagree with them because Australia’s police are anal sex enforcing faggots.
Sadly, scenes like this may never happen in Australia again, not because nobody will kick 1000 goals again, but because in 20 or 30 years time when it does happen, “Australians” will be too gay, brown and emaciated to remember what a great place Australia used to be, who our people were and what our traditions were.
So I loved what happened last night, because it poked the busybodies in the eye. It felt good. What I love most however are the overhead shots:
Anti-lockdown protests turned violent in Melbourne today. In Richmond, police had to deploy capsicum spray and many demonstrators were arrested on the spot | @NatYoannidispic.twitter.com/Zr4c20ArT2
After all they’ve done to us, after everything they took from us, after everything they made us do, all people wanted was the opportunity to run onto the ground when Buddy kicked 1000.
Footy is a drug. You can get 100,000 people at the MCG, but when a police station raises the communist flag of a foreign nation to celebrate the victory of a communist army, only a handful of the brave stand up.
It is worth repeating, in a healthy Australia, sport would be a reflection of who we are as a people and something we do for fun on the weekend. In globohomo Australia it is the opiate of the masses.
We had a quarter of a million in Melbourne late last year.
Now look again at what happens when a mere 20,000 Aussies, and trust me, 99% of them were real, Anglo Aussies, charge at the same point at once.
Even if you’re not a Swans fan you can appreciate the amazing achievement of 1000 goals by Buddy Franklin pic.twitter.com/UkCDNqv6DP
Earlier this week, XYZ News reported on a letter sent from the Prime Minister to a constituent, saying there is nothing he can do about vaccine mandates because he’s only the Prime Minister.
There was conjecture as to whether this was the official line, or perhaps an intern had just done a cut and paste without telling anyone.
It turns out it’s official policy. Scott Morrison is sticking to the excuse that because he is only the Prime Minister, he has no power to prevent state premiers and employers from forcing people to inject poison if they want to keep a roof over their heads. (Second video):
@ScottMorrisonMP Your government fully supports these state vaccine mandates,
That’s why you used the state’s to implement them at national cabinet.
If you want to prove your government’s innocence just release the national cabinet minutes for the last two years? pic.twitter.com/sZPRVSrJWs
“The Australian government, my government, has only supported vaccine mandates for aged care workers, disability workers, and those in high-risk health settings.”
“Every other vaccine mandate has been imposed unilaterally by state premiers, with no endorsement of the Commonwealth government.”
The hypocrisy is obvious. When the unvaccinated Novak Djokovic was lured to Australia so the federal government could deport and humiliate him in order to look tough on border security, Daniel Andrews said it was the federal government’s call, not his. Thus federal and state governments work in tandem to enforce vaccine mandates while conveniently shifting blame to the other whenever questioning gets too close to the mark.
More fundamentally, the so-called National Cabinet is unconstitutional. In Victoria, Question Time in state parliament was cancelled, and Premier Daniel Andrews did deals with minor party members and independents to grant himself emergency powers. People were censored and arrested for things they wrote on the internet and police used unprecedented violence against peaceful protesters. Coercing people to undergo “medical” treatment against their will goes against the Geneva Convention.
Hence, the Prime Minister is claiming that he has no power to override laws which undermine the democratic process on the grounds that he cannot undermine the democratic process.
Keep in mind however that this is exactly how democracy is supposed to work. The idea of “checks and balances” in a democratic system assumes the existence of competing gangs of armed thugs vying for supremacy. These competing gangs drive the country into debt by bribing the populace to like them every time they need their vote, while reassuring us that this means we are a democracy and thus have the best system of government in the world.
In 2022 we are discovering a reason the mandates were introduced was to help create weaknesses in the food distribution chain. The War in the wheat-rich Ukraine will place further pressure on food prices, supplies and distribution.
A period of chaos is coming, followed by the restoration of a Monarchy which answers to God. I still cannot say whether or not it will be preceded by a genocidal period of starvation and digital totalitarianism.
In the years following the Great War, new politically and socially dynamic nationalist and fascist European movements began to emerge and grow, clashing with both the recalcitrant liberal political elite and multiple incarnations of international communism. These manifestations ensured that seismic ideological and geo-political struggles would come to characterise the last century with a polarisation in political attitudes that would ultimately lead to the disaster of the Second World War and the uneasy stalemate of the Cold War.
The Spanish Civil War was one manifestation of these violent upheavals and the subsequent reportage by the British media was an example of how far this polarisation had already gone, especially as Britain was a non-combatant nation.[1] It was a war where the new compact and lightweight 35mm camera allowed photojournalists to get much closer to the front and record under fire, it came at a time when the new lavishly illustrated ‘picture magazines’ would present a story in a simple series of images rather than a detailed text. And, decisively, it was an era where the political bias of the photographers, reporters and editors alike, was clearly colouring the presentation of these events. For example, this article on the war appeared in the News Chronicle 19th January 1937:
“The Government of Spain was freely elected. It was democratic. If it has since become more extreme, more autocratic, that is not the fault of the democracy that elected it but of the rebels who by wantonly attacking it forced it to extremes in defence of its existence.”
In other words, the fact that the Spanish Republican government had become despotic, was entirely the fault of its enemies!
The Left Review’s pamphlet, Authors Take Sides on the Spanish War is yet another example of this overtly partisan presentation.
Authors Take Sides on the Spanish War
The Left Review was a journal created by the British section of the Comintern-sponsored, ‘International Union of Revolutionary Writers’. Established in 1934, it remained in operation until 1938, publishing poetry, short fiction and non-fiction as well as providing updates on the ‘Writer’s International’. In 1937, the Left Review asked a cross-section of British and Irish writers whom they supported in the Spanish Civil War, and why. Two hundred authors were contacted, and the results were published as a pamphlet late in 1937 entitled, Authors Take Sides on the Spanish War. Nancy Cunard, an heiress who had a passion for ‘anti-fascist’ and ‘anti-racist’ politics, conceived of the survey as a means to produce a political and moral blow against Franco and in favour of the republican cause. And, as this was left-wing propaganda, the questions that were presented to the participants had been clearly designed to direct the writers in favour of the Spanish Republic. As we shall see, some of the respondents referred to this in their replies.
After a long and largely emotive preamble, the introduction to the survey finally asked:
“Are you for, or against, the legal government and the people of Republican Spain? Are you for or against Franco and Fascism? For it is impossible any longer to take no side. Writers and poets… we wish the world to know what you, who are amongst the most sensitive instruments of a nation, feel.”
Beneath the question are twelve named supporting signatories including, Jean Richard Bloch, the French critic, playwright and novelist (and member of the Communist Party); the Dadaist and Surrealist (and long-time member of the Communist Party) Louis Aragon; José Bergamin, the Spanish writer who spent his life trying to reconcile his Catholicism with his communism; and W. H. Auden and Stephen Spender, two poets both strongly affiliated with left-wing politics and communism.
With the question out of the way, (and after a short publisher’s note that explains, “It has been impossible to include all the answers received…”) the answers are presented to the reader.
Of the writers whose responses were reproduced in the pamphlet, one hundred and twenty-seven were ‘For the Government’, sixteen were classed as ‘Neutral’ and five were ‘Against the Government’. The first section is from those who were ‘For’ the Republican government. Although many of the named authors may not be familiar to modern readers, the ‘For’ list also included such historic ‘notables’ as Aldous Huxley, Arthur Koestler, Alistair Crowley, C. Day Lewis, Louis McNiece and Victor Gollancz.
Crowley the occultist, was typically dramatic and cryptic, responding:
“DO WHAT THOU WILT shall be the whole of the Law.
Franco is a common murderer and pirate: should swing in chains at Execution Dock.
Mussolini, the secret assassin, perhaps worse.
Hitler may prove a “prophet”; time will judge.
Love is the law, love under will.”
Nancy Cunard (centre); wealthy heiress and self proclaimed “anarchist”.
Whilst Nancy Cunard’s own contribution is filled with nebulous aspirations and meaningless platitudes:
“… Spain is not “politics” but life; its immediate future will affect every human who has a sense of what life and its facts mean, who has respect for himself and humanity. Above all the writer, the intellectual, must take sides. His place is with the people against Fascism; his duty, to protest against the present degeneration of the democracies.”
Indeed, most of the responses are passionate and refer to democratic process, and the evils of fascism, etc. and are often accompanied by a great deal of literary hand-wringing.
The collection of ‘Neutral responses’ (sixteen of them) provide an interesting alternative to the ‘For’ collection.
The romance novelist, Ruby M. Ayres was categorical in her reply and her words are still pertinent for us today.
“Uninformed interference in international politics is more to be dreaded than any anticipated danger resulting from the conflict in Spain. As a professional writer, I dread amateurs.”
Vita Sackville West makes a very valid point with regards the bias of the question itself.
“… One point in your questionnaire strikes me as ambiguous. You stress the ‘legal Government’ of Spain, as the Government you wish to support. Is this because it is the legal Government, or because it is a Communist Government? If because it is the legal Government, then you ought also to be prepared to support Hitler or Mussolini in the event of a rebellion against them. Yet I do not think you would do so?”
And the poet Ezra Pound was both eloquently dismissive and prescient in his own reply;
“Questionnaire, an escape mechanism for young fools who are too cowardly to think; too lazy to investigate the nature of money, its mode of issue, the control of such issue by the Banque de France and the stank of England. You are all hot. Spain. Is an emotional luxury. To a gang of sap-headed dilettantes.”
The last section is the small collection of the five respondents ‘Against the Government’. These provide some interesting and at times poignant, replies.
The first to appear is from the poet, author and critic, Edmund Blunden. He wrote:
“I know too little about affairs in Spain to make a confident answer. To my mind (subject to that first reservation), it was necessary that someone like Franco should arise – and although England may not profit by his victory I think Spain will. The ideas of Germany, Italy, etc., in your document do not square with those I have formed upon the whole of the recent history of those countries. Memories of 1914-18 perhaps do not allow me to see some incidents you mention in the isolated and flamboyant way the manifesto has them.”
Whereas the Welsh mystic and writer, Arthur Machen, replied simply:
“Mr. Arthur Machen presents his compliments and begs to inform that he is, and always has been, entirely for General Franco.”
Lady Eleanor Smith, writer and former Bohemian socialite, provided a sarcastically mocking response:
“I was delighted to receive your unprejudiced brochure. Naturally, I am a warm adherent of General Franco’s, being, like all of us, a humanitarian. The destruction of so many beautiful objects, and the massacre of so many innocent persons, makes one pity profoundly the ignorant red masses – subsidized by Russia – in Spain. Do you not agree?”
Conclusion
Writing three years after the end of the Spanish Civil War, George Orwell observed,
“Early in life I have noticed that no event is ever correctly reported in a newspaper, but in Spain, for the first time, I saw newspaper reports which did not bear any relation to the facts, not even the relationship which is implied in an ordinary lie. I saw great battles reported where there had been no fighting, and complete silence where hundreds of men had been killed. I saw troops who had fought bravely denounced as cowards and traitors, and others who had never seen a shot fired hailed as the heroes of imaginary victories; and I saw newspapers in London retailing these lies and eager intellectuals building emotional superstructures over events that had never happened. I saw, in fact, history being written not in terms of what happened but of what ought to have happened according to various ‘party lines’.” [2]
The degree by which the media manipulated, distorted or even neglected to report on events eighty-five years ago, now appears all too familiar to those of us sceptical of the, often blatant, ‘construction’ of news items by the legacy media.
Unsurprisingly, George Orwell’s own prickly response to the Left Review survey was not published in their pamphlet, but, fortunately, it has been preserved:
“Will you please stop sending me this bloody rubbish. This is the second or third time I have had it. I am not one of your fashionable pansies like Auden or Spender, I was six months in Spain, most of the time fighting, I have a bullet hole in me at present and I am not going to write blah about defending democracy or gallant little anybody…”

n.b. When I came to write this short summary, I did so conscious of the current situation in the Ukraine and by the overt bias of the western media in reporting the events as they have unfolded.
So you force millions of children to stay home, not see their friends, wear muzzles and listen to boring teachers drone over the internet for two years.
When you set them all free, so many of them want to remove their genitals that the “hospital” assigned to the butchery has to put them on a waiting list.
Coencidence?
The number of children lining up for gender-change treatment on the NHS has soared by more than a fifth since the Covid lockdowns, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
According to new meeting minutes uncovered by this newspaper, there are about 5,500 children on the waiting list for treatment at the controversial Tavistock and Portman Trust’s Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) in London.
Senior figures at the NHS trust have expressed fears ‘the list had grown substantially during the lockdown’ and admitted it was a huge ‘preoccupation’ for the Board of Trustees.
A lot of reports have exposed the devastating impact the lockdowns and Covid Hysteria have had on the sanity of the population in general and on children in particular. Will the increase in children wanting to cut up their penises and vaginas be included in the subject of “mental health concerns”?
Last night, Stephanie Davies-Arai founder of campaign group Transgender Trend said of the possible impact of lockdowns: ‘Life stopped really, so adolescents at that stage in their lives, where they’re really searching for their identity, turn online.
‘They’re bombarded with messages about being trans and that all of their problems and insecurities and anxieties are because they’re trans.’
She’s right.
The new figure of 5,500 is a massive increase on an estimate of the waiting list made last year.
In January 2021, the Care Quality Commission reported after inspecting GIDS that the list was 4,600.
Paul Burstow, the former Liberal Democrat health minister who chairs the Tavistock trust, said this issue of the growing GIDS waiting list was a ‘preoccupation’ for the Board of Trustees.
It comes as the CQC found numerous failings at the clinic, after a string of whistleblowers raised concerns that the GIDS fails to properly support vulnerable children and has pushed them towards life-changing sex-change treatments.
Those concerns were echoed in a recent review for NHS England by Hilary Cass, a former President of the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health.
Dr Cass wrote that doctors felt under pressure to adopt an unquestioning approach to children seeking to change their sex.
Her interim review also said a lack of formal clinical guidance and stifled debate have left many medics ‘nervous’ about offering the ‘more robust support’ they want to deliver.
The NHS-backed report said the situation meant youngsters are being given the controversial puberty blockers or sex-swap hormones they ask for – when they may benefit more from waiting or other care.
Literal satanic pedophiles are pushing children to maim themselves. It is the logical, infernal next step given that the ritual slaughter of the unborn has become completely normalised. Governments have been able to coerce millions of parents into letting their children be injected with not-vaccines which are giving them heart attacks, and will likely render them infertile and give them AIDS.
It is likely that a lot of the kids on that waiting list are there without their parents’ permission or even knowledge, but that still accounts for thousands of parents who are saying to their kids, “Sure, you can cut your dick off.”
We are witnessing the death of a terminally sick society.

Crozier was substituted out of the game during the main break, having reported light-headedness before fainting. The club is not sure whether he will need to spend Thursday evening in hospital, or the reasons behind why the medical incident occurred.
“He just fainted,” Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge said afterwards.
“We were all concerned about him. Our medical staff think he’s OK. Not sure about the reasons why, but he just got light-headed and fainted.
“Obviously, straightaway, you make sure that he’s looked after and I think he’s in good hands. But that’s all I’ve got for you at the moment.
“I’m not sure (if he’ll go to hospital). They’re monitoring him, but he seems to be fine at the moment. Hopefully, it’s nothing more than some light-headedness for some reason and he’s OK. But we’ll fill you in when we know a bit more.”
This is getting crazy. Last year an Aussie equestrian Olympian suffered blood clots which were so severe, her lungs looked like she had been in a traffic accident. Also in 2021, soccer players dropped like flies. At this year’s Australian Open tennis tournament there were several casualties, and this week Rafael Nadal suffered severe chest pains in the final of the Indian Wells tournament.

An Italian cyclist had a heart attack just a few days ago.
At the start of the month, cricketers Rod Marsh and Shane Warne died of heart attacks in consecutive days. Now former footballer Matthew Lloyd has Bell’s Palsy, and the top women’s tennis player in the world Ash Barty has just decided to retire at the age of 25.
For no reason.
No reason whatsoever.
This is insane. Just so we’re clear on this, this is not normal. This did not used to happen all the time.
I’ve been watching AFL for many years now and have never seen a player mid game brought to the rooms with an ECG heart monitor on…. pic.twitter.com/r5vub5oAQL
The vaccine is laying waste to the world of sport. It’s the tip of the iceberg, a mere inkling of the wave of adverse reactions sweeping the West in the wake of the forced vaccination campaigns.
5 hours into my shift and I’ve already had 3 patients with blood clots. And yes, all 💉. One of our lab techs said he has never seen so many D-dimer tests ordered.
This isn’t exactly a good time for the West’s hospitals to be clogged with children literally getting their dicks cut off.
I’m done saying that the people responsible for all this need to face consequences in court. By the time this is over there will barely be anyone left standing to fill a jury.
Here’s a prediction. So far we have seen individual incidents. A spate of them, a definite pattern, but they have occurred one at a time. There is going to come a weekend where a dozen players all collapse on the field. We’re going to see players drop to the ground at the same time clutching their hearts, and some of those kids are going to die in the middle of the MCG.
They’re not going to blame the vaccines though. They’ll blame you and me.
Usually we are against masks, but in this case we’ll make an exception.
Aside from having an openly transexual Prime Minister, New Zealand has had the most batshit insane Covid restrictions of anywhere in the Western world. But then suddenly, for no reason at all, they were all gone:
NZ The Narrative is Crumbling Ardern has seen the polls and they ain’t looking pretty…So she removes The VAX Pass in it’s entirety and VAX mandates will be lifted for Education, Police and Defence workforces on Monday April 4, hoping it will save her job.. pic.twitter.com/cukf3wFif6
Covid restrictions and vaccine mandates in New Zealand have been significantly eased despite case numbers remaining in the tens of thousands per day.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said on Wednesday that vaccine mandates would be lifted, gathering limits raised, and vaccine mandates removed.
There were 20,087 new Covid cases and 11 deaths announced in New Zealand on Wednesday with the seven-day rolling case average, which provides a clearer picture of the prevalence of the virus, sitting at 17,111.
It’s remarkable, given that he had previously shut off and shut down the entire country for just one or two cases.
From 11.59pm on Friday there will no longer be limits on outdoor gatherings and indoor gathering limits will be doubled from 100 to 200 people.
More changes from 11.59pm on April 4 include vaccines passes no longer required at businesses and QR codes scrapped.
Outdoor masks will also be no longer required which, when paired with the increase to gathering limits, will allow sport, concerts, festivals and weddings to go ahead as they would before Covid.
Covid Tyranny has taken one step back after taking two steps forward. What matters is that government power has been increased and the infrastructure of our digital prison enhanced. Also, “living with Covid” is code for “Covid is now incorporated into the ways that idiots can virtue signal.
Vaccine mandates will also be narrowed to only include health and aged care workers, border workers, and corrections staff.
Ms Ardern said the country would stay on the ‘red’ setting on the government’s Covid traffic light system despite the easing of rules.
‘We’ve had more than 500,000 reported cases of Covid-19 and expert modellers say there have probably been 1.7 million actual infections,’ she said on Wednesday.
‘That figure, coupled with 95 per cent of New Zealanders being fully vaccinated, means we now have a high level of collective immunity.
‘New Zealanders have worked incredibly hard to get through this pandemic and as a result of those efforts we are now in a position to move forward and change the way we do things.’
The 95% figure is rubbish, but clearly the globalists reckon they have jabbed enough people, and the poison is doing its work.

The changes in New Zealand leave Australia as a standalone with regards to vaccine mandates. Will theAustralian government apply the same logic – we have to do this to keep in step with the rest of the world – to justify lifting the mandates as they did when they imposed them?
Don’t hold your breath.
Most telling is the message this sends to peaceful protesters. The protests in New Zealand were indeed peaceful, but when faced with relentless police brutality they finally started to get a bit rowdy.
Police are using force to shut down what was a peaceful occupation of NZ’a parliament.
Police surrounded the people, some have been bashed by police, a lady’s arm was snapped, they have hosed down the tents.
Radio host Kyle Sandilands has said he “conned” the public into getting vaccinated against COVID-19 through a national vaccination campaign.
In a short snippet shared on social media, the Australian shock jock slammed New South Wales Police during a recent show, saying he had “problems getting a liquor licence” because he was not deemed “a fit and proper person.”
Sandilands noted the hypocrisy of the move, noting that he was apparently “fit and proper to do the national campaign to con everyone into getting vaccinated.”
“But the police, they’re a**holes for—this is just trouble,” he said. “I also had problems getting a liquor licence, also, New South Wales Police, because I’m not a fit and proper person. I’m fit and proper to do the national campaign to con everyone into getting vaccinated.”
He didn’t get something he wanted so he spilled the beans. There is a reason the archetype exists of the villain who brings himself down due to his own hubris.
Last year, the KISS 106.5 host recorded a pro-vaccine rap video that was played during ad breaks on Network Ten and MTV.
Prime Minister Scott Morrison congratulated Sandilands for the video titled, Get Vaxxed Baby, saying his kids loved it.
NSW Health Minister Brad Hazzard similarly praised the song, describing it as “fantastic.”
The track, which is set to the tune of Vanilla Ice’s Ice, Ice, Baby, has had just over 94k views on YouTube.
I haven’t seen ot and I am not going to link to something so cringe. Last year everyone was saying this:
“Hey isn’t it suspicious how all these celebrities are coming out and telling us to get jabbed? Theyare all saying the same thing, like they’re reading from a script. Maybe the government or some big international NGO is paying them all to do it?
Then the World Economic Forum congratulated Australia’s Prime Minister Scott Morrison for pushing along Australia’s digital transition, like the whole Covid thing was just a Trojan Horse to impose greater electronic control over our lives.
This is the Prime minister of Australia being congratulated by the WEF for introducing Digital ID by a using Coronavirus as an Excuse.
Then people started dying from the vaccines and millions of people marched through the streets against them, so governments took one step back from the Covid Tyranny agenda and told us all that now we have to care deeply about the Ukraine:
Then they told us it is a good thing that we are paying more for petrol because yay democracy, and it will spur us to heal the world of climate change, and we really should stop thinking so much about ourselves, and care more about all the Africans who are going to starve because of this.
When Australia is suffering food shortages and much, much worse, they will inform us that it is a good thing that our people are dying by the millions because climate change and White privilege.
There would certainly be a lot of pressure on her to keep quiet, especially considering Shane Warne and Rod Marsh recently died of heart attacks, Matthew Lloyd was struck down with Bell’s Palsy, Rafael Nadal is experiencing sharp chest pains and a spate of on-field heart attacks felled soccer players throughout 2021-22.
Nearly 1300 adverse reactions have been revealed to affect Pfizer recipients alone, with heart ailments chief among them.
If you think Warne and Nadal are high profile, consider that Barty is a slightly aboriginal female tennis player (with, you know, the rumours) in a woke modern Australia which worships diversity at all costs.
This is as high profile as it gets, and she’s just walked away from it all.
Ash Barty has shocked the tennis world after announcing her retirement from the sport at age 25.
The current World No.1 hasn’t played since winning the Australian Open in January and recently announced she wouldn’t be playing at Indian Wells or Miami this month.
On Wednesday she made the bombshell announcement that she’s walking away from the sport.
“Today is difficult and filled with emotion for me as I announce my retirement from tennis,” Barty wrote on Instagram alongside a video interview with Casey Dellacqua.
“I wasn’t sure how to share this news with you so I asked my good friend Casey Dellacqua to help me.
“I am so thankful for everything this sport has given me and leave feeling proud and fulfilled.
“Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way, I’ll always be grateful for the lifelong memories that we created together.”
In the interview Barty said: “I know that I am spent, physically, I don’t have anything more to give.
“I have given everything I can to this beautiful sport and I’m really happy with that. For me, that is my success.”
Barty previously took a break from tennis in 2014 before returning and becoming one of the best players Australia has ever produced.
However she said this isn’t the same situation and she won’t be back.
“I’m so happy and I’m so ready and I just know at the moment, in my heart for me as a person this is right,” she added.
“I know I’ve done this before, but in a very different feeling.
“I’m so grateful to everything that tennis has given me. It’s given me all of my dreams, plus more.
“But I know the time is right now for me to step away and chase other dreams and to put the racquets down.”
The article just goes on like this, with Barty talking about her feelings and not saying anything about the jab. It is entirely possible that she has genuinely decided to retire. It is not unlike female athletes to retire when young. She might even want to become a mother.
Perhaps she saw what was happening to other athletes and decided it was in her best interests to stop competing in high intensity sport. Either way I wish her all the best.
What makes me happiest about this news is that it is a kick in the teeth to Australia’s woke corporate world and all the sycophants who prop up unpopular sports and are trying to force-meme women’s sport into being as popular as men’s sport.
Here is but one example.
I love how Ash Barty has never defined herself by the work she does, the sport she plays. I love how she walks away when it’s not as much fun as it should be – and then walks into something else and is even stronger. Life lessons. Go well, Ash. @ashbarty
The gushing makes it clear that these people couldn’t give a stuff about the game. It’s about the symbolism.
Given how much investment in advertising they have pumped into Barty it will make a satisfying dint to their profits.
It’s not about money, though.
These people have destroyed something which we just used to do for fun on the weekend and which used to be a genuine reflection of the Australian people and Australian culture, but which is degenerating into confected garbage that openly pushes sin and antiwhite propaganda.
So a double congratulations to Barty, she has escaped their clutches. Pity for the next diversity pin-up who they will look to chew up and spit out.
Finally, if there is one thing we can be sure of, there will be more high profile health issues and retirements before 2022 is out. The football season has only just begun and you cannot play if you have not been vaccinated.
