THE MADNESS OF THE FUNDAMENTALIST MASK


Face concealment is not an obligatory religious decree within the oppressive Abrahamic faith systems – It does however stand as a very socially divisive custom beloved of political agitators posing as protectors of religious tradition.

Facial coverings do one thing very well; they kill individuality and create blind totalitarian conformity. Under such a restrictive regime, no one is allowed a personality so everyone must obey the theocratical decrees issued by the religious leaders in control.

Moreover, hiding the identity of the wearer heightens the risk of criminal activity because the person in question hiding behind the mask is anonymous and therefore free to act without accountability. Thieves and bank robbers cottoned onto this fact a long time ago, yet todays dippy masked religious fanatics have not quite grasped the implications of their own ill-concidered actions.

This clearly poses a great risk to public security and puts greater pressure of our security services when they urgently need to identify anyone at the scene of any crimes.

Religious fundamentalism is a great manmade danger to society and mankind as a whole.

Mother Nature spent millions of years creating our facial expression and ability to frown, smile, etc. Facial expression is an essential way of communicating with others. To deny or dismiss this wonderful evolutionary gift due to mental delusion, psychological disorder or indoctrinated religious illusions is a massive insult to our species.

Comically, some avid mask wearers claim that their face coverings make them feel ‘closer to God’. This claim however is the height of mental delusion and psychological imbalance.

Spitting in the face of their own god? 

Surely, if their deity (natural evolutionary process) has spent eons developing facial expression as a means of vital human interaction then by hiding their expressions behind a mask these deluded devotes of unnatural face concealment are effectively spitting in the face of their god.

Delusion is one thing yet terminal daftness is quite another thing entirely!

Finally, opposing oppressive fundamentalist regimes does have its price…

Iranian woman whipped 74 times for refusing to wear hijab

33-year-old was charged with 'encouraging permissiveness' after several Tehran outings

An Iranian woman received 74 lashes for refusing to wear the hijab, defying the strict dress code even as she was taken to be whipped...

There are currently 18 states that have banned the burqa and niqab, both Muslim-majority countries and non-Muslim countries.

Face veiling has not been regarded as a religious requirement by most Islamic scholars, either in the past or the present.

Fundamentalism of all kinds divides societies and untimatley kills!

The REAL (civil) war is happening right in our midst today. UPDATED.




Evil is as Evil does… as the laughing millionaires running the UK rat race celebrate their VILE plans to starve millions of the UK’s worst off!

Where are all the caring politicians, where is the so-called compassion? 

'In the UK, an astonishing one in 11 adults serves as unpaid carers, a role that extends far beyond mere assistance. These 5.7 million people constitute a vital segment of society, providing care for their loved ones. Yet Labour’s cuts to Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) Personal Independence Payment (PIP) will cut nearly £650 million in support from around 150,000 carers. So, Carers UK has taken a stand.

Unpaid carers; saving the government £184 billion – yet the DWP will cut their benefits, anyway. 


Even the Citizens Advice (CA) has exposed the outrageous stupidity of the UK Government's attack of its own residents with their latest paper.



I make no apologies for reiterating the CA stance...

“By refusing to properly consult on its plan to cut billions from disability benefits, the government is choosing not to ask questions it doesn’t want the answers to. The cuts will have a devastating impact on disabled people (and their children), sending hundreds of thousands into poverty, and many more into deeper poverty. This will result from a series of arbitrary reforms that have been designed around savings targets rather than improving outcomes, inflicting hardship on people in ways that the government doesn’t yet fully understand.”

  • The government used a dubious sleight of hand to reduce the number of people likely to be pushed into poverty. It counted people who would have been affected by the Tory WCA changes which never happened as having been lifted from poverty they were never actually put in.  So, rather than 250,000 being pushed into relative poverty by Labour, CA thinks it could be as many as 400,000.
  • The Green Paper doesn’t attempt to work out how many people will lose both PIP and the UC health element as a result of the changes, or how much they will lose.
  • The government document doesn’t analyse how many people already in poverty will be more deeply entrenched in poverty as a result of the cuts, although an FoI request has suggested this will be 700,000 people.

Let's just digest this fact for a moment. Now we have a government - supported advice organisation (CA) that's so outraged at disability cuts that it's actually advising people that their own clueless government has lost the plot! 


Without doubt, this is evidence that a case of 'no confidence' must surely be made against UK's current bumbling government. 

Recent research has unveiled that the contribution of  unpaid carers is valued at an eye-watering £184 billion annually. However, this figure may not fully encapsulate their true worth, as a significant 36% of carers take more than three years to acknowledge their caregiving role.

Despite their invaluable contributions, a staggering 55% of these individuals feel undervalued by society. Many are grappling with the heavy toll that caregiving takes on their mental and physical well-being.

A recent study highlighted that eight out of ten carers foresee worsening health impacts in the coming years. Such stark reveals underline the need for greater recognition and support for these unsung heroes – not lease from the DWP.'


Governments do not get more evil than this one.

Actually, how ‘many’ trees are found in “0.8% of NT Formby’s woodlands?”

 




I get a wee bit jittery when I see the typical authorised spin aimed at appeasing public anxieties over planned mass environmental destruction.


https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/visit/liverpool-lancashire/formby/the-future-of-formby-project


Popular yet controversial discrimination against various species of tree is also a questionable concept prone to misinterpretation.


Treating some trees like gold and other like vermin may be fashionable, so let's delve into this issue a little further.

Any plant can get the hackles up of people who do not want a particular species in any given locality and especially in the more sterile, well-managed garden or largely manmade wildlife habitat.

Sycamore leaves are eaten by caterpillars of a number of moths, including the sycamore moth, plumed prominent and maple prominent, hence bats frequently feed around them. The flowers provide an excellent source of pollen and nectar for butterflies, bees and other insects, and the seeds are a valuable food source for birds and small mammals. 

Sycamore can support a high range of certain taxa, such as lichens. Additionally, the aphids that feed on sycamore provide a resource for many animals, directly as prey and indirectly through their honeydew. Its great worth within the native ecosystem is far greater than many so-called ‘experts’ imagine. 


In the right environment, sycamores may live hundreds of years and become majestic stately trees that give great beauty to the English landscape. In like fashion, the value of the birch tree for wildlife is high for most taxonomic groups. Birch woods are capable of increasing the fertility of some mineral soils This tree supports a large number of specialist and generalist phytophagous (generally those that feed on green plants) insects and a wide variety of woodland plants, birds and mammals. When mixed into conifers (like in Formby), it further increases the diversity considerably, especially for insects and wildbirds.

Of course, us arrogant humans like to think we know better than the gods, when it comes to interfering in the natural cycles of life, but things tend to be there for very good reason.

Moreover, so-called ‘scrub’ is a loose and somewhat dismissive term that covers many vital (yet officially unwanted) species of shrub, etc, which wildlife needs for survival. Scrub is also essential for creating dune stability.


Imperial swipes of the officialised pen through entire sections on a map of wild habitat may seem like a good idea to some, yet life is not always that simple.

UFO incidents in Southport 2025







For the record, this is just a brief blog to mark the recent UFOs seen in Southport. I shall add to it if and when necessary.

This first one was witnessed on 22nd March 2025 over Woodvale.




https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACD3O8jjcCc

The next one was spotted by my wife and I in broad daylight flying over Kew in Southport on 11th May 2025. It was very high and flew against the prevailing breeze.





https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qohoP-WDJpw



My son Jason also saw the next one with me over Ainsdale on 14 May 2025.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAE9Qtdcbsg


It was silent.
There was no wind.
It travelled (we think) at an altitude of around 1000 feet or lower.
It was white with no flashing aviation lights.
I was zoomed in and lost then found the object after a few shaky seconds.
I checked Flight Radar as soon as I stopped filming and there was nothing in the vicinity at that time.

We have no firm conformation as to what the UFOs witnessed above at this time actually were.

I reiterate that this list may be extended if additional UFO activity is recorded. I should also add that similar activity has also been highlighted to me over Skelmersdale and the Wirral area too.

NB: Sadly, it was too late for these sightings to make it into the latest UFO book, which hit the shelves this year, but perhaps these may be addressed in a future volume...

Man's ongoing ploy to control the life-giving sunlight above

 


Erm, some of us guys spend all winter waiting for the sunshine, but others want to keep us in the dark, in more ways than one.

You really think you live in a sane world with others (alleged experts) doing their best to help you?

The holier-than-thou Church of Climate Alarmism's latest cunning ploy, which actually had its roots implanted decades ago, was to screw up Mother Nature (via messing with our ancient weather system) plus your precious health - and then walk away whistling when their shallow actions ultimately prove to be a rather 'bad' idea.


https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/2045716/insane-new-50m-plan-sunlight-uk


For years, some of us have been warning about the insanity of the Climate Panic lobby's narrative but this latest action takes the gold medal in the grant-hunting boffin stupidity stakes.

Solar geoengineering has previously been described in the media as a barking mad scheme to cancel global heating by introducing pollutants into the Earth's atmosphere to dim sunlight by reflecting some sunlight back to space. 

Erm, we have a fragile, self-regulating, eco-system that has taken billions of years to evolve but now we know better than the old gods of nature it seems. Such is the same type of ill-considered vanity that shouted out loudly that the Titanic was unsinkable, whoops! 


In layman's terms, these pollutants fall out back onto the ground where us hapless trusting little creatures breathe them in. Various health conditions, some more serious than others, are reported to flare up after such exposure. These chemicals also contaminate the soil and water supply and the rest of the eco-system.

Such plans will also help to accelerate biodiversity loss and cost us a fortune, at a time when the bumbling UK Government is happily robbing the poor to feed the rich and targeting the elderly, needy, and disabled people of our country.




https://pat-regan.blogspot.com/2025/03/number-10s-war-against-most-vulnerable.html

This latest climate madness comes as NO surprise to some of us who have sincerely warned about their crazy actions and extremist policies for a long time.


Man loves to play at being God, but history teaches us that the ramifications of such human vanity can prove catastrophic!

Sycamore - the great survivor


The stately sycamore may grow to be 400 years old. Hated by the badly-informed and terminally ignorant, who seem to feel subconsciously threatened by anything that's more successful than them, this majestic tree is in fact a grand friend to the ecosystem. 


It provides vital food for many wild animals, including bees, hoverflies, caterpillars, birds, and insects. The leaves are eaten by caterpillars of a number of moths, including the sycamore moth, plumed prominent and maple prominent. 


The seeds are eaten by various bird species, including greenfinch and goldfinch. Sycamore bark is eaten by insects, including sycamore lacewing and sycamore aphid. Aphids also attract ladybirds, which in turn bring in more feeding birds.


The flowers give a wonderful source of pollen and nectar for bees and other insects.

Sycamore also provide shelter for bat species and nesting sites for numerous bird species. 

This tree also featured favourably in the mythology and folklore of many ancient cultures, including Celtic, Norse and Greek, etc. 

We hear a lot too about the sycamore not being a native tree and having been introduced via Tudor or earlier Roman influence. I personally have never bought into this popular narrative myself. 

One BIG clue is that this tree is a great survivor and very successful, as well being incredibly adaptable to diverse climates. 

Until the middle Pleistocene, (Ice Age) Great Britain was a peninsula of Europe. Because we were all connected back then it seems highly probable that the tree was 'always' here and not just 'introduced' in a later period. I feel that the evidence for this claim will turn up in due course. 


So the next time that 'expert' gardener expresses his/her bizarre psychotic hatred for the noble sycamore, because its seedlings are spoiling his pretty cultivated flower borders, remind him of the essential help it's actually providing for the native environment and the great story of survival behind its ancient heritage.
