by M. K. BHADRAKUMAR

The ‘butterfly effect’ of the visit by the Member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the People’s Republic of China and Director of the Office of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the CPC Central Committee Wang Yi to Moscow on February 21-22 is already discernible.

LAST CHANCE – DEADLINE TOMORROW

Keeping this short and sweet –

The Digital ID they are proposing is a slippery slippery slope as they are bringing it in on the basis that they can add any types of data that they want to in the future.

Furthermore it will be very hard to avoid as they will make it a requirement to do so many things.

I don’t want to consent, you don’t want to consent, but there’s things on that list that I do want and need.

It is why we must object now as they will take our silence as consent.

Take these two actions now if you haven’t already:

1️⃣
Use the guide linked below so you can fill out the online consultation (the link to which is on the first slide of the guide).

This is best viewed on a desktop with two windows open; one for the guide and one for the consultation.

2️⃣
Below the guide is the option to send an email response to the consultation which also sends a copy to your MP. This takes less than 30 seconds as it finds your MP for you.

This means they get more responses and the MPs know before it even comes to Westminster that thousands and thousands of us object.

TAKE ACTION NOW

In early January, as Israel was forming its most openly extreme right-wing government yet, Nadav Tamir, a former Israeli diplomat and current lobby group director, gave a prescient warning.

Maneuvers from Minsk?

Monday, 27 February 2023 — The van says…

Geography is destiny, but what does the future hold should Belarus enter the fight?

Preamble

In the multitude of dynamics that make up the current conflict in Eastern Europe, a potential operation from Belarus cannot be dismissed. A previous article stated that

‘…recent rumors indicate not only a large buildup of men and machines in the Belgorod region, but also in Belarus. Another front opening on the Ukraine’s borders would open a real can of worms for Kiev and its backers, already overstretched resources now being taken way beyond breaking point. Some would say there is excellent logic behind Russia carrying out such a plan, yet viewed objectively, it would be madness for Russia to not follow such an agenda.’ 

This piece shall examine the possibilities offered should Minsk enter the fray, and what it may mean for both Kiev and the world as a whole.
