Joe Biden may have many faults. But one strength he seems to have is that he must be one of the fastest writers in America.
In just one day Biden ‘granted’ 2,490 commutations. If we assume it took about 10 seconds to sign each of these pardons, then 2,490×10 seconds = almost 7 hours. So in that one day, Biden must have been signing pardons for about 7 hours.
On another day he ‘granted’ 1,500 commutations. So that’s over 4 hours of signing.
Of course, another possibility is that Biden actually spent most of these two heavy pardonning days in a senile doze while his controllers used a computer to draw up and sign these pardons. It’s even possible that Sleepy Joe wasn’t even aware of all these pardons which were being signed in his name.
Altogether Biden (or his controllers) signed 8,064 pardons for people who presumably could have been prosecuted for all sorts of offences once Trump moved into the White House on 20 January 2025. In comparison here are the number of pardons signed by the four presidents before Biden:
Trump: 237
Obama: 1,927
Bush: 200
Clinton: 459
Appart from Biden’s extraordinary signing skills, another thing I noticed from the above list is that Democrat presidents seem to issue many more pardons than Republican presidents. I wonder why that might be?
We’re constantly being told that ‘Climate Change’ or ‘Climate Crisis’ or ‘Climate Emergency’ or ‘Global Boiling’ or whatever the BBC calls our weather this month is responsible for decimating our wildlife, expecially our bird populations. Here’s a typical BBC headline: “Climate change ‘has affected a third of UK bird species’. The other culprits for declining bird numbers are, of course, “intensive framing practices, particularly an increase in fertilizer and pesticide use“.
So, as expected, we humans and our modern lifestyles are apparently to blame for destroying nature. This gives yet more reasons for our rulers to impose ‘degrowth’ on us:
But one issue the media and experts never seem keen to mention is the role of cats in wreaking total havoc on our natural environment. A study published b y the University of Reading estimated that UK cats kill 160 to 270 million animals annually, a quarter of them birds. The real figure is likely to be even higher, as the study used the 2011 pet cat population of 9.5 million; it is now closer to 12 million, boosted by the pandemic pet craze.
On average, a British pet cat brings home around five items of prey a year. Researchers estimate this is about 23% of their actual kills, which makes it about 22 kills a year. Multiplied by the number of pet cats, it is clearly a huge number of lives lost. If you compare this with the collective population of native wild predators such as stoats and pine martens, cats “outnumber them something like fivefold”.
Then there is one other unmentionable – Mad Ed MIliband’s wind turdbines. When these actually work (about 30% of the time at most) estimates suggest that between 10,000 and 100,000 birds are killed by wind turbines in the UK each year. These deaths are primarily caused by collisions with turbine blades.
But let’s not mention cats and Mad Ed’s windmills. Let’s just keep on blaming the supposed ‘Climate Crisis’ for wiping out our bird populations.
According to Google’s AI: “Curiouser and curiouser!” is a famous quote from Alice in Wonderland, spoken by the character Alice as she experiences increasingly strange and bizarre events in the magical world of Wonderland. The phrase captures her astonishment and bewilderment as things become more and more peculiar. It’s a recurring motif in the story, reflecting Alice’s growing sense of unease and confusion.
And that brings us to the story of the three small fires at two properties and one car linked in some way to our great leader Keir ‘EU Surrender Monkey’ Starmer.
A young Ukrainian man has apparently been arrested and is being questioned by our useless plods. But how would a young Ukrainian man know which house Starmer used to live in, which house Starmer held the freehold for and which kind of car Starmer used to drive? It’s ever so curious. A nasty cynic might suspect that someone who knew these things had previously had some kind of contacts with our esteemed, always perfectly-coiffed leader.
We live in an age of wild conspiracy theories mostly being spread through the Internet. Crazy unhinged conspiracy theories such as:
Covid was accidentally leaked from a filthy, badly-run Chinese research institute as part of a project funded by the US as a certain Dr ‘Frankenstein’ Fauci used the Wuhan Institute of Virology to get around a US ban on ‘gain of function’ research on viruses
The whole scare around anthropogenic ‘Global Warming’ or ‘Climate Change’ or Climate Crisis’ or ‘Climate Emergency’ or ‘Global Boiling’ or whatever it’s called this month is a massive scam which has no scientific base at all and is merely a ruse used by our rulers to increase their control over us making us poorer, more miserable and more oppressed as part of their push for ‘Degrowth’
The mRNA supposed ‘vaccines’ were a disastrous medical experiment with a new and untested technology which was ineffective in treating the Chinese lab-leaked virus and the fake vaccines have caused massive and lasting harm to tens of thousands while making the BIg Pharma companies billions
There was an effective treatment for the Covid lab-leaked virus – a cheap out-of-patent drug called ‘Ivermectin’ billions of doses of which have been safely taken in mainly Third-World countries to treat parasitic infections. But terrified of the effect the use of Ivermectin against Covid might have on their very profitable fake vaccine bonanza, the Big Pharma companies got the health authorities to ban the use of Ivermectin against Covid and the prostitute media to denigrate Ivermectin as a ‘horse dewormer’
I could go on. But you get the picture. The only problem for our rulers concerning these crazed conspiracy theories is that what was deemed a conspiracy theory usually turns out to have been true all along in spite of the efforts of our political rulers, the whores in the supposedly ‘scientific community’ and the supine mainstream media to hide the truth from us.
I’m not the sort of person to spread wild gossip. So I’ll let the brilliant Simon Webb with his ‘History Debunked’ YouTube channel do it for me. Here he is possibly enlightening us on what may be behind the Starmer arson attacks – a lover spurned.
Please note I am not criticising Mr Starmer’s sexuality, bisexuality, trisexuality or whatever. All I’m concerned about is whether this (IMHO) congenital liar’s home life with the much-loved Lady Victoria Sponger is as much a sham and a lie as his political life and whether such a person should be allowed to continue as PM.
In my Monday-Tuesday blog I showed how Chatgpt’s AI could produce satirical song lyrics in just a couple of seconds. Just as a fun experiment, on Monday afternoon, a few hours after Starmer’s immigration speech, I asked Chatgpt to write a 600 word blog criticising Keir Starmer’s latest speech on controlling immigration. I was amazed at the result. I had assumed that AI was just some kind of big computer system. But I’m now beginning to realise how powerful and revolutionary it can be. If a technical idiot like myself can produce satirical songs and blogs in just 2-3 seconds using AI, it’s hard to imagine what an intelligent person could achieve.
About 3 seconds after I asked Chatgpt to write a blog for me, this is what ChatGPT came up with:
In his latest speech on immigration, Prime Minister Keir Starmer unveiled a series of reforms aimed at reducing migration to the UK. While the intention to address public concerns is understandable, the proposed measures raise significant questions about their practicality, economic impact, and alignment with the UK’s values.
Economic Implications
One of the central components of Starmer’s plan is to extend the residency requirement for settlement from five to ten years, with reductions available through a contributions-based model favoring work in public services or skilled sectors like AI and engineering. Additionally, the government plans to restrict post-study visa durations and consider charging universities per foreign student. These measures could deter international students, who contribute significantly to the UK’s economy and cultural diversity. Universities may face financial challenges, and the broader economy could suffer from a reduced influx of skilled graduates.
Impact on Healthcare and Social Care
The proposed cap on care worker recruitment from overseas aims to push employers to hire from within the UK’s pool of economically inactive individuals. However, the care sector has long relied on migrant workers due to domestic shortages. Limiting this recruitment without a robust plan to attract and train local workers could exacerbate staffing crises in healthcare and social care, ultimately affecting the quality of services provided to the public.
Integration and Language Requirements
Elevating English language proficiency requirements for all migrants and their adult dependents is intended to enhance integration. While language skills are crucial for integration, the policy may disproportionately affect individuals from non-English-speaking backgrounds, potentially limiting the diversity and richness that migrants bring to UK society.
Legal and Human Rights Concerns
The government’s plan to limit judges’ use of Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights to prevent deportations raises concerns about the UK’s commitment to human rights. Article 8 protects the right to private and family life, and restricting its application could lead to unjust deportations and family separations, undermining the UK’s reputation as a defender of human rights.
Political Motivations
Starmer’s rhetoric, including phrases like “failed experiment in open borders,” echoes sentiments often associated with right-wing politics. This shift appears to be a strategic move to counter the rising influence of the anti-immigrant Reform UK party and to regain support lost in recent local elections. However, adopting such rhetoric risks alienating progressive supporters and undermines Labour’s traditional stance on social justice and inclusivity.
Conclusion
While addressing immigration is a legitimate concern, the approach outlined in Starmer’s speech may lead to unintended economic and social consequences. Policies that potentially harm key sectors, compromise human rights, and shift political rhetoric towards the right warrant critical examination. A balanced and compassionate approach to immigration reform is essential to uphold the UK’s values and ensure the well-being of its diverse population.
This blog will be a bit different from my usual moaning. I couldn’t sleep last night so wandered around the Internet for a couple of hours. When looking at YouTube, I came across a video explaining how to use AI programme Chatgpt. I watched a couple of minutes and then out of curiosity went to chatgpt.com.
I’m currently producing two short YouTube videos. One of Keir Starmer ‘singing’ “Back in the EU-SSR” to the tune of the Beatles “Back in the USSR” about how he was taking us back into the EU. The other one is of Rachel Reeves ‘singing’ “I crashed the economy” to the tune of Kris Kristofferson’s “Me and Bobby McGee”.
Just for fun, I asked ChatGPT to write new words to “Me and Bobby McGee” with Rachel Reeves singing about how she crashed the economy. Within a couple of seconds, ChatGPT came up with this:
“Me and Rachel Reeves” (To the tune of “Me and Bobby McGee”)
Verse 1 Busted flat in Birmingham, budget red as flame, Feelin’ near as broke as one can be. Rachel read her ledger out, said “Growth is just a name,” But taxes rose like smoke from GST.
Verse 2 I shared my last tenner, she took half in green, Promised roads and trains and something new. But all I got was VAT on every little dream, And a note that said, “This pain is good for you.”
Chorus Freedom’s just a word now in a Treasury decree, Nothin’ left to lose, just more to pay. Feelin’ more like debtors every time we try to eat, Me and Rachel Reeves led the way.
Verse 3 From Liverpool to London, the High Street signs went dark, Shops all shuttered down and out of steam. She said, “We must be prudent,” with a cold accountant’s heart, While inflation danced a silent fiscal scream.
Bridge She taxed the wind, she taxed the rain, She taxed our thoughts and hopes and pain. Said, “Only growth comes through control,” But left the North out in the cold.
Chorus Freedom’s just a slogan hung in Treasury TV, Used to mean a choice, now just delay. But if taxes built utopias, we’d all be sipping tea, With me and Rachel Reeves paving the way.
Chatgpt then asked if I wanted the lyrics to be more biting and humorous. I said yes and within less than 2 seconds, Chatgpt came up with this:
“Me and Rachel Reeves” (To the tune of “Me and Bobby McGee”) Satirical Version
Verse 1 Busted flat in Barnsley, purse was feelin’ thin, Rachel said, “Don’t worry, this is growth!” She slapped a tax on cuppas, called it “levelling within,” Now even Greggs feels posh for us poor oaths.
Verse 2 She taxed the bin, she taxed the loo, She taxed my gran for breathing too. Said, “Fiscal rules are sacred—just ignore the debt we grew,” While Parliament was snoring through the news.
Chorus Freedom’s just a number Rachel hides beneath a graph, Nothin’ left to save, it’s all been spent. Said she’d soak the rich, but gave ‘em all a bubble bath— Guess the joke was us, not where it went.
Verse 3 She taxed the north, she taxed the south, She’d tax your thoughts if she had clout. Put duty on the rain and slapped a surcharge on the sun, Now every pint costs twelve quid and a lung.
Bridge “Productivity’s too low!” she said, then raised the tax on tea, Which made the office kettle stage a coup. She banned balloons and biscuits in a climate spending spree, But gave MPs a bonus for their view.
Chorus Freedom’s just a buzzword in a spreadsheet gone berserk, GDP fell through the floor again. She blamed it all on Brexit, Thatcher, and some clerical work, While taxing dogs and cyclists in the rain.
Outro If taxing dreams was policy, we’d all be billionaires, But we’re skint, and she’s still on TV. Ah, I’d trade all her green levies for a Chancellor who cares— Me and Rachel Reeves ain’t meant to be.
I won’t be using the Chatgpt version for my video. I have already written the new lyrics for my videos. But I loved some of Chatgpt’s lines such as:
She taxed the wind, she taxed the rain, She taxed our thoughts and hopes and pain.
and:
She taxed the bin, she taxed the loo, She taxed my gran for breathing too.
Of course, Chatgpt’s lyrics weren’t perfect and could be improved. But I was blown away by how even a technical neanderthal like myself could use Chatgpt and how brilliant its lyrics were. Moreover, I was just fiddling around with the free version. If you have a paid account, you apparently get many more functions and a much more powerful programme helping you. So I thought some readers might find this little exercise interesting. Before doing this I had no idea about what AI was and what it could do.
Maybe I wasted months of my life researching and writing my latest book THERE IS NO CLIMATE CRISIS. Perhaps I should have just gone to Chatgpt and asked it to write a 80,000-word book for me debunking the climate crisis nonsense. Chatgpt would probably have just taken a few minutes to do what took me months. Having seen Chatgpt at work, I have a feeling that an awful lot of people’s jobs are going to be replaced by new AI programmes.
There have been quite a lot of ads on daytime TV recently for UNICEF. These ads, of course, show all the wonderful charitable work UNICEF is doing in desperate countries around the world and ask us plebs to donate our already heavily-taxed money:
The UK branch of UNICEF rakes in just over £160m a year.
Here are the salaries and benefits for some of the top UNICEF UK bosses:
Joanna Rea Interim Deputy Executive Director for Advocacy, Programmes and Safeguarding – £145,072
Mohini Raichura-Brown Deputy Executive Director, Partnerships and Philanthropy – £150,085
Steven Waugh Chief Financial Officer – £153,447
Jonathan Sparkes Executive Director – £184,493
You may think these are quite modest and deserved for an organisation which is raising and spending over £160m a year. But you also have to factor in that salaries, grants, and allowances paid by the United Nations to its staff, including UNICEF executives, are generally exempt from income tax. This is a standard practice for international organizations like the UN.
I’ll leave it up to you to decide whether UNICEF deserves our money or whether it is being excessively charitable to its own tax-avoiding bosses with our already heavily-taxed money.
I wanted to write about this. But congratulations to the Telegraph and Daily Mail and vloggers like The Blackbelt Barrister and Simon Webb for picking up on this story that our Government doesn’t seem keen to mention. As far as I’ve seen, the BBC hasn’t thought it worthwhile reporting on this story either. Here’s our Government’s unusually long press release about the supposedly ‘best deal India has ever agreed‘ new trade deal Britain has agreed with India:
Don’t bother reading it. The key point is that there’s one not insignificant issue the lengthy Government press release doesn’t mention at all – under the deal an apparently unlimited number of Indian workers will be able to come to work in the UK on 3-year visas and neither they nor their employers will have to pay National Insurance. This will immediately make them at least 20% cheaper to employ than equivalent British workers. This seems to be something Mr Starmer and Mr Reynolds and, of course, the BBC ‘forgot’ to mention when blethering on about ‘best deal India has ever agreed’ Although, at least it does seem to be ‘best deal India has ever agreed‘ – but for Indian, not for British workers.
Moreover, as I guess many of these Indians will be married, will they be allowed to bring in their families? And would that include wife/husband, a pack of brats, the workers’ parents, maybe a few aunts and uncles and 15 to 20 cousins and their families? Probably they’ll bring in a few family members each so that will mean more school places will be needed, it will be harder for taxpaying Brits to get NHS treatment, the cost of housing rentals will increase due to higher demand and there will be further pressure on many other public services. And, of course, with the latest clashes between India and Pakistan, the new arrivals might decide to bring their decades-long rivalry and violence to our streets enriching us even further.
Starmer repeatedly claims that “puting more money into workers’ pockets” is one of Labour’s main goals,Unfortunately, many or even most of those workers whose pockets will benefit will apparently be from India, not from the UK. Anyone still not believe in ‘The Great Replacement’?
Here’s Simon Webb explaining this latest Starmer betrayal of Britain, a country Starmer seems to loathe:
First I thought I’d bring you a little climate panic story which I don’t think the BBC’s climate Cassandra, Justin Rowlatt, will be mentioning. Why won’t he mention it? Well (IMHO), partly because this story takes place in Central London so it doesn’t allow Rowlatt and his camera crew and various other BBC hangers-on to fly somewhere exotic at our expense to tell us the Earth is doomed because we plebs travel too much. But this story won’t be mentioned by ‘our BBC’ mainly because this story rather undermines the whole ‘you all have to buy EVs to save the planet’ nonsense.
It has been reported (not by the BBC, of course) that users of the parliamentary estate have been informed that they won’t be able to charge their electric vehicles in New Palace Yard’s underground car park. The charging points are due to be removed on health and safety grounds following a review by the Safety and Fire teams, and in consultation with the Chair of the Administration Committee.
I guess that the Safety and Fire teams are worried that were a faulty EV lithium ion battery to spontaneously combust and, burning in a fire at around 2,000 degrees which would overwhelm any sprinkler system while spewing out toxic fumes, Ed ‘EV’ Miliband might achieve what Guy Fawkes failed to do.
I rather suspect that within the next few years, insurance companies will demand that all EV charging points in garages under offices, flats and other buildings are similarly removed as a condition in their insurance policies. We may even see EVs banned from underground parking garages altogether.
The ghastly ‘genocide’ against Palestinians
I don’t know if these idiots are still protesting about the supposed ‘genocide’ of Palestinians by Israel:
But, if the Israelis are really committing ‘genocide’, they’re not doing a very good job.
This supposed ‘genocide’ against Palestinian Arabs has been going on for over 70 years:
Palestinian population in 1950: 944,624
Palestinian population in 1960: 1,073,081
Palestinian population in 1970: 1,116,280
Palestinian population in 1980: 1,469,059
Palestinian population in 1990: 2,139,067
Palestinian population in 2000: 3,151,792
Palestinian population in 2010: 4,016,916
Palestinian population in 2020: 5,069,962
Palestinian population in 2025: 5,589,623
If the ‘genocide’ doesn’t stop soon then these people will be wiped out completely. Not!
Though there are plenty of genocides being conducted around the world. The most recent seems to be the slaughter of Alawites and Christians in Syria by groups of Jihadis:
The murderers seem to have been eagerly supported by members of the new ‘moderate’ government’s security forces. But nobody protests against this as the murderers are from our favourite religion.
Oh, and in case you didn’t know, the UK government is giving around £160 million of our money to the new ‘moderate’ government in Syria. I wonder if some of our money will go to help fund the slaughter of more Alawites and Christians?
