| Such is the omnicrisis of the Labour government that it’s hard to tell what the final nail in Keir Starmer’s coffin will be. But the Labour Together scandal has got to be up there.
It was revealed two weeks ago that Labour Together, a thinktank once run by Starmer’s right-hand man Morgan McSweeney, secretly paid a PR firm to investigate journalists. |

The government of Guyana capitulating to US pressure to expel the Cuban medical brigade is shameful beyond words
Donald Trump and the Prince of Darkness, Marco Rubio, are now inflicting the unthinkable on Cuba – an embargo that deprives the Cuban people of vital petroleum and gas products that fuel a modern society’s ability to function. This is an immoral, illegal and ruthless attempt to deal a final death blow to Cuba, following 67 years of relentless US economic sanctions, blockades, sabotage and attempted regime change operations. The intention is to force this island nation to its knees. The question is, will the world allow Cuba, which has become a symbol of human dignity and resistance, refusing against all odds to surrender their inalienable right to self-determination and true independence, to fall. This current embargo threatens the very ability of Cuban society to function and provide vital services to their citizens and in so doing is life threatening. As such, it constitutes a form of genocide.

With New START now expired, the United States’ withdrawal from arms control treaties and its embrace of nuclear ‘warfighting’ doctrines are raising the risk of catastrophic conflict between nuclear powers.

An extraordinary political scandal has erupted in Britain, raising the prospect Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s already embattled government could tumble. On February 5th, it was revealed Labour Together, a dubious ‘think tank’ intimately intertwined with the Labour party, paid shady PR firm APCO Worldwide tens of thousands of pounds to spy on journalists. Primary targets were reporters exposing damning information on Labour Together’s finances, and central role in Starmer’s corrupt rise to power. Others were considered “significant persons of interest”, for reasons unclear – including me.

The 62nd Munich Security Conference was not a diplomatic gathering.
It was a war council — a gathering of the general staff of world imperialism, assembled not to resolve conflicts but to coordinate the next phase of aggression on a global scale.

NATO’s destruction of Libya
In late January, the US Department of Justice dumped millions of documents detailing the criminal activities of US oligarch and serial paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, including his vast rolodex of paedophilic celebrities, financiers, politicians and public figures. The tranche is so vast, independent journalists and researchers have barely scratched the surface yet. But preliminary investigations amply demonstrate Epstein was centrally enmeshed with multiple foreign spy agencies. First and foremost, the Zionist entity’s notorious Mossad. The horrors wrought on West Asia as a result are incalculable.

Good day, spectators,
Let’s crack on and first let’s define the word barbarism seeing though I’ve used it in the title. Barbarism is not merely an act of violence; it is the systematic infliction of suffering on a civilian population to achieve a political goal. It is the calculated denial of life’s basic necessities such as food, light, medicine or movement, with the intent to break a people’s spirit and erase their sovereignty. And for 67 years, the United States has been committing this crime against the people of Cuba. Now, as I write this in early 2026, the Empire has tightened the noose to the point of strangulation.

In Munich, the language of heritage, sovereignty, and renewal cloaks a program of bloc consolidation, industrial recalibration, hardened borders, and unilateral force. Beneath the hymn to Western civilization lies a disciplined strategy to reassert Atlantic primacy in a multipolar world. The question is not whether the West will act — but who benefits from how it acts.
