You’d think at the height of the biggest crisis since WW2 that it’s an odd thing to do though?

Not really. Did you actually read the link you excitedly posted?

(The existing cabinet is to remain in position in a caretaker basis, until an election, when they governing party will almost certainly get voted back in)

It’s the rise of the Icke’s, valiantly saving us from ‘centrist extremists’ like Kamala Harris, Lewis Hamilton and Chris Whitty.

Fun fact about Icke, the lady that set him down the lizard people road was based in Hassocks and that’s where he met her.

Hassocks Home of the Lizard people.

Yup, most likely. And most likely [MENTION=316]Albion Dan[/MENTION] got this from QAnon or some subsidiary of it. Perhaps this thread that says so much about our times can be quietly removed elsewhere.

The confirmations are from The Guardian, Express, and Independent? A lot of very strange things to all happen at once or not?

Watch Capitol invasion; think Reichstag fire.



Lots of fake news out there, quite probably even on this thread. Worrying times though.

Another (I knew this before he went overtly nutz) - he refused to travel to the Mexico 86 WC with the BBC, because he said he was scared of flying. Missing out on a great WC.

No doubt not bothered, he has bigger fish (or Alien reptiles) to fry.

I must admit I spent a day or so watching his videos earlier in the lockdown because they are entertaining and he’s quite a good watch.

I Must add I don’t agree with a word he says !

I first read about the Dutch scandal about 3 days ago, Merkel stepping down has been known about for some time, she will be difficult to replace because she has dominated German politics for so long, Estonia I know nothing about and as for Italy,as pointed out earlier, I think the time of the average span of their government is about 7 months.

I’m close to someone who’s been influenced by a big group of older Icke devotees in Brighton. They love his videos, last year going en masse to Trafalgar Sq to watch him preach.

Interestingly the group, DO NOT fit the NSC/James O’Brien neat stereotype of flat earthers also being gammons and Brexiteers.

Instead they’re traditionally Green/Labour voting families, but they’re big on anti-vax and have been seduced by the full Q Anon tripe.

I’m really not here to argue just share what I thought was interesting news and confluence of pretty huge changes in politics.



Merkel story is important. The rest is a pile of nothing.

Italian politics is unceasingly unstable at the best of times, and I’ve already spelled out to you why the Dutch story is little more than a public apology to the people.

At pretty much any point in time, you could trawl the internet, and find a handful of similar political dramas around the world.

Think Paul Manafort. Think Ukraine. Think 'little green men'.
