Bank of England expects UK to fall into longest ever recession

UK - The Bank of England has warned the UK is facing its longest recession since records began, as it raised interest rates by the most in 33 years. It warned the UK would face a "very challenging" two-year slump with unemployment nearly doubling by 2025. Bank boss Andrew Bailey warned of a "tough road ahead" for UK households, but said it had to act forcefully now or things "will be worse later on". It lifted interest rates to 3% from 2.25%, the biggest jump since 1989.

Portland Facing Homelessness 'Catastrophe': Mayor

USA - With the homelessness crisis cited among their top concerns, Oregon voters are taking note of Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler’s declaration of a “humanitarian catastrophe” in the state’s largest city. Oregon has among the highest homeless populations in the nation per capita. According to DHM Research, 9 of 10 voters statewide identify homelessness as a “very big problem” as Election Day draws near.

Modern-style degrees are worthless in the world of work

UK - One in five bar staff are now graduates and experts say it is because university leavers find it increasingly hard to find professional work. Nineteen per cent of bar workers went to university, compared with 3 per cent 30 years ago, the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) found. The research, based on data from 6,000 workers, also found that 17 per cent of waiters are graduates, compared with 2 per cent three decades ago.

Suffer the Children!

SCOTLAND - Western nations around the world have fallen prey to the gender identity craze that is harming the lives of children. Perhaps no other country exemplifies this madness more than Scotland. The ruling Scottish National Party has proposed a piece of legislation called the Gender Recognition Reform Bill. The proposed law would remove this requirement and allow people to change their gender by self-declaration. The bill also seeks to reduce the age at which someone can apply for a Gender Recognition Certificate from 18 to 16 years. Current Scottish law requires individuals to be diagnosed with gender dysphoria before obtaining a gender recognition certificate.

Children to Seek Transgender Medical Services without Parent’s Permission

USA - California recently passed SB 107 allowing children from all 50 states to seek transgender medical services in California, even if a parent does not approve. A new state law in California could incentivize “bad actors” from around the world to skirt custodial laws by relocating to the Golden State, a conservative legal group claims.

Where are the 'fake news' fact checkers?

UK - The BBC made up a story about a Russian 'attack' on a Ukrainian city's water supply – Britain's state broadcaster claimed that Moscow's troops tried to create a drought in Nikolaev, using false information. Don’t take RT’s word for it. The BBC itself seems simultaneously uncertain as to whether the deliberate destruction it claims the pictures show is in fact destruction at all. Descriptive texts accompanying the two highly pixelated, blurry shots – which may suggest they were taken on extremely dated photographic equipment, and/or aren’t at all recent – add a small but hugely significant caveat to the allegation.

The march of Germany’s extreme monarchists

GERMANY - The far right in Germany isn’t all angry young men with shaved heads, baseball bats and black boots. There are those who appear respectable, even intellectual. The Reichsbürger movement includes accountants, teachers and academics; many members are middle-aged. It’s a fractured network with vastly diverging world views, united in their belief that the current government is illegitimate.

What ‘Zeitenwende’ really means

GERMANY - I am a child of the post-Cold War order. Peace and prosperity in a united Europe were my reality, but those certainties no longer exist. A radical rethinking has begun, as we realize that there is no natural law protecting freedom. Europe’s systemic rivals will openly challenge the rules-based international order and our ways of life. In Germany, we coined a term for these strategic challenges of the future that concern us all: Zeitenwende—a turning point. As I travel to Washington this week to meet with US defense officials and others, here’s what the United States should know about this term and this pivotal moment in time for Germany. Put simply, the Zeitenwende marks the beginning of a new history. We must adjust our minds accordingly, and actions will follow.

 
Germany pushes back against the US

GERMANY - German Chancellor Olaf Scholz is set to visit China this week. It marks his first ever trip to the Asian country, amidst growing tensions between Beijing and the West. But the decision to make the trip and the timing behind it is no coincidence. Scholz is sending a deliberate message to the US that Germany isn’t going to close the door on China, as Washington attempts to force countries to take a side.

Central Bank Digital Currencies are the Next Frontier

EUROPE - “If you can move every human into a digital concentration camp, empty their bank account any time you want, and tell them what they can and cannot spend money on, you’ve got complete control.” – Catherine Austin Fitts. Central bank digital currencies (“CBDCs”) are digital currencies issued directly from a nation-state’s central bank and serve as legal tender. Critically, CBDCs are controlled by governments and therefore represent the polar opposite of the ideas – decentralisation, open-source software, permissionless, peer-to-peer transactions – that made Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies such a revolutionary technology.

A Surprising Threat To The US Power Grid

USA - The importance of a strong power grid cannot be emphasized enough. Often, when a grid fails, the results are terrifying. Of all the major power grids in the world, the United States’ is one of the more vulnerable to attack. State-sponsored hackers from the likes of Iran, Russia, and, unsurprisingly, China pose a real threat to the United States’ electrical transmission lines. However, there’s another (far less obvious) threat to the grid: electric vehicles (EVs).

“There is no Climate Emergency”

USA - Scientists continue to flock to sign the World Climate Declaration that states there is no climate emergency. Over 200 people have signed the World Climate Declaration (WCD) over the last few weeks, including 20 university professors. A number of the professors and other academics signing the declaration are experts in pure science fields such as chemistry and physics. Over 300 scientists and professionals have signed the WCD since August 18th, when the Daily Sceptic highlighted the project and interest soared across social media. The total signatories, led by the Norwegian physics Nobel Prize winner Professor Ivar Giaever, now number over 1,400.

Pelosi Reportedly Refuses To Hand Over Home Security Footage

USA - One of the most bizarre details about the Paul Pelosi attack is that there is no security footage being released to the general public, and the left is trying to pretend that it is no big deal and that everyone should just move along. Initial reports from several media outlets that covered the first moments after the weird attack claimed that Pelosi had no security camera systems working, which is of public concern, considering Pelosi is third in line to be President of the United States, especially in these troubling times.

Greta Thunberg Calls For “Overthrow of Whole Capitalist System”

EUROPE - Climate activist Greta Thunberg has gone fully mask off and is now calling for the overthrow of “the whole capitalist system.” Thunberg made the extremist comments during an appearance on Sunday night at London’s Royal Festival Hall to promote her new ‘Climate Book’. Nicholas Harris from UnHerd was there to watch Thunberg outline her demented manifesto.

The United States Has Been Overthrown

USA - The United States has undergone a coup. Having observed no martial conflict, you might think that I have gone off my rocker. But not all coups are physically violent. They can occur because poisonous ideas take hold and subvert the society. The United States is defined by the Constitution, and when the Constitution is eroded away, so is the United States. In Woke America, this is the situation today.

“Just what is an APOSTLE?”
Just what is an Apostle?

Today we find the Church of God in a “wilderness of religious confusion!”

The confusion is not merely around the Church – within the religions of the world outside – but WITHIN the very heart of The True Church itself!
