So I commented the other day about the British billionaire whose boat sunk in a freak storm off Sicily, two days after his codefendant in a fraud trial was run over and killed.

After reading this Twitter thread:

1. He was absolutely, without doubt, a product of the intelligence services, making Keir Starmer’s intelligence connections look innocent
2. He’s entered the Blowback universe due to his connection with no less than fucking Richard “The Prince of Darkness” Perle

British fascists set fire to hotel housing asylum seekers

Starmer’s Britain

Fash in the UK continue with their attempted pogroms. A hotel housing asylum seekers has been attacked and is currently surrounded, with police currently holding a line.

Keir Starmer has described the riots as “far right thuggery” and “racist rhetoric”, finally conceding that there might be some sort of anti-Muslim thing happening.

This paper was published in 2023, but is popping up on Twitter for me today - I hadn’t seen the evidence of a non-Chinese origin of the virus laid out so clearly before.

Genome analysis of Covid shows that the dominant strain of Covid that spread during the pandemic neither originated in China, or was the cause of the December 2019 epidemic in China (which was due to 2 other strains).

Based on the estimated tMRCA of the non-redundant global genomes, SARS-CoV-2 appears to have already been circulating globally for at least 10 months before its first discovery in Wuhan. Therefore, focusing only on the genomes in China would make it impossible to reveal the actual origin of the pandemic.

…

The tMRCAs of DL and DS were in September and October, respectively. Considering the ancient status of DS and DL compared with the status of GL, these results indicate that the three haplotypes were already separated before April 2019 and have evolved in parallel since then. In other words, GL that caused the global pandemic did not originate from the viral strains that caused the epidemic in China. The ancestor strains (DS0 and DL0) of DS and DL that gave birth to GL were already extinct before the outbreak of COVID-19; therefore, much more recent tMRCAs have been estimated by using only the current genome sequences.

…

In contrast to the time order in China, the tMRCA of GL was considerably earlier than that of the two older haplotypes in most regions of the world, including India, Southeast Asia, Europe, Africa, the USA, and South America ( Fig. 4 ). The earliest tMRCA of GL was identified in India, which had a mean of May 9, 2019, followed by Africa, Europe, and the USA with tMRCAs in May to July, 2019, suggesting that GL had spread globally at least 6 months before its discovery.

I’ve posted this multiple times before, but I’m going to say it again as my mind is still blasted from knowing this:

• Keir Starmer’s Chief of Staff took a “career break” in the 1980s to run a pub in South Armagh (which to the unfamiliar was an area of, shall we say, “active community involvement” in the fight for Irish freedom)
• Keir Starmer defended Berlusconi as part of his legal team during his appeal at the European Court of Human Rights
• Keir Starmer was part of the legal team that got the murder conviction of Sergeant Lee Clegg quashed
• Keir Starmer played with the Parachute Regiment in an 11-a-side football “grudge” match against the Royal Military Police
• Keir Starmer decided as Director of Public Prosecutions that an MI5 agent should not face torture charges for participating in interrogation at Guantanamo Bay. Starmer then attended the leaving party of the head of MI5 a year later
• Keir Starmer was Director of Public Prosecutions when the Criminal Prosecution Service decided not to prosecute Jimmy Savile in 2009
• Keir Starmer is advised by Peter Mandelson, who according to an internal report by JP Morgan had “a particularly close relationship” with Jeffrey Epstein
• Keir Starmer served on the Trilateral Commission
• Keir Starmer secretly assembled a leadership campaign team days after Mike Pompeo’s private comments were “leaked” to the press wherein Pompeo pledged to “do [his] level best” to prevent a Corbyn premiership
• Keir Starmer’s campaign instructed its candidate running against Nigel Farage to leave the constituency, banned from printing leaflets, blocked from using campaigning software and had access to the campaign’s social media overridden. This happened after the candidate started being a threat to Farage. Farage’s party’s vote share drove Labour’s victory, in a reversal of what happened in 2019.

But reassured, Keith is a normal, regular guy who doesn’t work after 6pm on a Friday.

Starmer has referenced a “changed Labour Party” 8 times in his victory speech so far. The man is utterly fucking haunted by Corbyn, he won a massive landslide but he’s still saying this shit

Edit: 11 times now

Starmer accuses Sunak of 'Jeremy Corbyn-style' manifesto

Absolutely fucking rent free in Keith’s head. The Corbyn manifestos were fully costed and Keith der Sturmer stood on them as a member of the shadow cabinet.

Can’t wait for the look on his face when the press turns on him.

My company hired a bunch of lower cost engineers in Chile without considering local labor laws, and were upset to discover that the Chileans refused to respond to being paged out of hours when systems were failing…and there was nothing they could do about it

Think about it. Why is China stalling so badly economically? Why is Japan having trouble. Why is Russia? Why is India? Because they're xenophobic. They don't want immigrants.

Tonight’s H5N1 posting

Some veterinarians working with dairies in Texas believe the virus is more active than current data suggest. Nick Schneider, a consulting dairy practitioner, is one of them.

“The thing is, when you get into the Panhandle of Texas, I’m not sure there’s anybody (dairy farms) that did not have it,” says Schneider. Texas is home to 335 Grade A dairies with an estimated 625,00 cows, according to information on the Texas Association of Dairymen website. More than 100 of those operations are in the Panhandle.

The virus likely is being under-reported by the dairy industry because the presence of the virus in dairy cows is new, and there are no reporting requirements, Russo says.

…

Petersen says she has worked with people infected by H5N1 who do not interact with dairy cows. “I'm talking owners and feeders who don't usually touch cows,” she says.

…

Moving forward, the U.S. livestock industry might operate in a new world – one where the H5N1 virus is endemic.

This comes after a lab at Ohio State University detected genetic material of the virus in 38% of retail milk samples they’ve tested, data that also suggests the current outbreak is being underreported.

“A colleague of mine, he told me, ‘You know what’s strange? I went to one of my dairies last week, and all their cats were missing. I couldn’t figure it out — the cats usually come to my vet truck,’ ” Petersen recalled. “And then someone called me and said half of his cats had passed away without warning, and so then all the alarm bells start going off in your head.”

The cats had died from swollen brains, a potential result of influenza. They didn’t have rabies.
