Where was Trudeau’s support when those of us living in France back in March 2020 were ordered into our homes for over two months under the threat of hefty fines, and allowed only to go out with a personal-trip certificate that entitled the bearer to leave home for one of a few select reasons?

The UK’s Daily Mail recently referred to China’s “Covid revolution,” but when an estimated 10,000 protesters took to the streets of London in August of 2020 to demonstrate against lockdowns and mandates, the newspaper dismissed them as “conspiracy theorists.”

Sky News has said of the uprising in China that “after living with extreme restrictions for months, many citizens have had enough.” However, in September 2020, the same news outlet qualified British protesters as anti-lockdown conspiracist nutjobs and hoaxers.

German state broadcaster Deutsche Welle referred to the Chinese uprising as an “extraordinary moment in China” that’s “spreading further,” but last December, the same outlet described protests at home against German government restrictions as “illegal” and said that they were becoming “more militant.”

When their own fellow citizens are standing up to rapidly growing government oppression, the Western establishment is all too quick to denounce them while defending the loss of fundamental rights enacted by self-described democracies that have been behaving like anything but. But when the same phenomenon is unfolding in China – well, you can’t stop the spread of freedom, right?

Even when Rough was fully operational, Britain could only count on around 15 days’ supply in the event of a crisis, with that feeble resilience reduced to an even poorer six days by the beginning of 2022. The decision was taken at a time when the global market was awash with cheap gas, and the government naively believed all energy needs could be met by short-term buying, with no need for long-term emergency storage.

Now that the facility, which takes the form of a huge depleted gas field embedded in solid rock miles underwater which can be pumped or emptied of gas at will, is being revived and back up to around 20 per cent capacity, the country has around nine days worth of storage. This is still the lowest in Europe, however, according to The Guardian.

The explosion of unsustainable debt ratios implied that many borrowers – households, corporations, banks, shadow banks, governments, and even entire countries – were insolvent “zombies” that were being propped up by low interest rates (which kept their debt-servicing costs manageable). During both the 2008 global financial crisis and the COVID-19 crisis, many insolvent agents that would have gone bankrupt were rescued by zero- or negative-interest-rate policies, QE, and outright fiscal bailouts.

But now, inflation – fed by the same ultra-loose fiscal, monetary, and credit policies – has ended this financial Dawn of the Dead. With central banks forced to increase interest rates in an effort to restore price stability, zombies are experiencing sharp increases in their debt-servicing costs. For many, this represents a triple whammy, because inflation is also eroding real household income and reducing the value of household assets, such as homes and stocks. The same goes for fragile and over-leveraged corporations, financial institutions, and governments: they face sharply rising borrowing costs, falling incomes and revenues, and declining asset values all at the same time.

Once the inflation genie gets out of the bottle – which is what will happen when central banks abandon the fight in the face of the looming economic and financial crash – nominal and real borrowing costs will surge. The mother of all stagflationary debt crises can be postponed, not avoided.

During a meeting summarizing the ministry’s conduct during his tenure, Barlev said he advised presumed incoming prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to put someone other than Ben Gvir in control of the Israel Police, which currently falls under the jurisdiction of the Public Security Ministry.

“If there is a change in the status quo on the Temple Mount there will be a third intifada,” Barlev was quoted as saying by the Ynet news site. The first two intifadas, in the late 1980s and the early 2000s, were marked by deadly terror attacks against Israelis and clashes with troops on a near-daily basis.

Despite his long-outspoken advocacy to allow Jewish prayer at the flashpoint site, Ben Gvir equivocated when asked during an interview Sunday if he would allow Jews to pray there. He called the ban “racist.” In hot mic comments last month, President Isaac Herzog said the “entire world” is concerned about Ben Gvir and that the next government is “going to have a problem with the Temple Mount.”

Some one-third of gas electricity generation was lost between 2010, when the Conservatives were returned to office, and 2020 — along with around two-thirds of oil electricity generation and a whopping 94 per cent of coal electricity generation, as the notionally right-wing party pursued a ruinous and strict green agenda.

Indeed, in order to meet emissions targets, the government has allowed domestic generation to shrivel and increased Britain’s reliance on interconnectors that bring in energy that is generated abroad, which therefore does not count towards the national carbon count. This, obviously, is an accounting trick that simply exports emissions to other countries willing to produce electricity then export it, and one which leaves the country dangerously vulnerable if there are issues with the interconnectors, generation issues in supplier countries, or general energy shortages which result in exports being restricted.

As it happens, all of these circumstances have come at once and the UK has been left with no ‘rainy day’ reserve, a failure of forward planning some find baffling.

The EU is anticipated to survive the approaching heating season despite skyrocketing energy costs since the bloc’s members have bought sufficient oil and natural gas. However, this comes at a tremendous cost to the world’s poorest countries, who are cut off from the gas market as a result of Europe’s insatiable appetite.

According to reports, emerging market nations run a major risk of not being able to satisfy their energy requirements. The most likely effects of the energy security issues include social discontent, increased frequency and duration of power outages, and factory closures.

According to the government plan, which hopes to target 2,000 to 3,000 farms, landowners will first be offered a deal "well over" the property's value. The Netherlands, the second-largest food exporter in the world, is aggressively pushing forward with the plan to comply with the EU's conservation rules. The agriculture industry is reportedly responsible for nearly half the nitrogen emitted in the country.

Once they pulled that ad campaign, it was replaced with another that contained a book written by a controversial artist with questionable links to cannibalism, occultism, pedophilia and more. Another book in the same shoot was tied to “Cremaster”, which is a male sexual body part that involves the testes. There appears to be a consistent theme celebrating young children in vulnerable situations surrounding this entity of organizations.

The Union of India in its reply affidavit dated 23.11.2022 filed before the Supreme Court in the case of Rachna Gangu Vs Union of India Writ Petition (C) No 1220 of 2021, had made following submissions: Government never forced any citizen to get vaccines. There were no compulsion to citizen to get vaccinated. The vaccination program was completely voluntary. [Paragraph 41]

The Government on its website, Circular and also the PTI in its press release had time to time informed the citizen about death causing and other side effects of Covishield vaccines. Therefore, any person taking vaccine has to verify said information and then to decide whether to get vaccines or not. Since vaccination was voluntary.

Insect fragments include legs, antenna and other parts of the bugs that can find their way mixed into the products. These 'food defects' end up in food during the harvesting of raw materials and the manufacturing process. The FDA says that it is 'economically impractical' for manufacturers to grow and harvest these products without at least some minor contamination.

Coffee is one of the most popular products on the defect list. Experts have long warned of mycotoxins - harmful chemicals created by mold - being found in commercial coffee products. Coffee beans are harvested from damp tropical environments where mold thrives, and then doused in water during the manufacturing process. If they are not adequately dried before packaging, they will be sent on a long journey across the world still wet - allowing mold to form on them. As a result, coffee beans on the grocery store shelf can come with an unwanted extra ingredient.

The list of foods with allowed defects includes fruit and vegetables - fresh, canned and frozen - spices, seafood and nuts. In total, there are 111 products listed.

Deep in the Himalayas, the exercises also prepare soldiers to fight in harsh mountainous conditions and train to protect themselves from extreme cold and minimal oxygen in high-altitude conditions. The Chinese government expressed annoyance with the exercises on Wednesday – about 60 miles from China – claiming they do not inspire Beijing to trust New Delhi.

India’s Times Now News shared the videos of the Indian military’s war birds, identifying them as trained eagles who can spot small drones and snatch them out of the sky. Rather than naming India, however, Times Now claimed that birds could be used to spot “drones that smuggle drugs and weapons from Pakistan to Indian territory.” India and Pakistan are bitter political enemies, enduring their own decades-long border dispute, and Pakistan is a close ally of China’s.

That is adding to the pressure of existing debts. "Once you start falling behind, you are chasing a never-ending debt," he says. People like Mr McGinley are slipping further into debt to pay for basics like rent and bills, Citizens Advice has warned.

Half of the charity's debt assessment clients have a negative budget - meaning they are left in the red after paying for essentials. This is up from 36% in early 2019, it says. Groups who rarely asked the charity for help, like homeowners and pensioners, are now seeking debt advice.

"This alarming trend is creating a ticking time bomb. Every day our advisers hear from people left with less than zero each month, unable to repay debts and slipping further into the red to afford the basics."

But I wonder how the people who were in Washington DC on January 6, 2021, and were subsequently arrested and interrogated for simply being in the area where the Trump rally was taking place, simply because they were carrying a cell phone that tracked their location, which was then obtained from companies like Google, feel about the use of technology that spies on them?

It didn’t matter if you were there for the Trump rally or not, or if you loved or hated Trump, just being in the location and allowing Big Tech to monitor their location via their cell phone, even if the phone was on airplane mode in some cases, was enough to warrant an arrest and interrogation.
