‘The Quest for the Soul of Europe’

The Iron Legion:
Strength and Tradition

‘..The modern idea of freedom is a myth. Today’s freedom amounts to no more than the freedom to work and consume for the benefit of the oligarchs. I speak to men like us and they tell me what they want, what they feel is missing from the modern world, and it isn’t this nebulous concept of freedom. They want a brotherhood. They want order, discipline and tradition. They want old-world masculinity. They want to explore. They want to build something. They want a mission. They want to be part of something which has a great purpose, and they want the simple things like a home and a family, all of which are gradually being taken from them as this broken society dissolves.

This is not a flash in the pan. This is a rising fire in the hearts of hard men. This is not going to be just a few broken windows….’  (bold mine)

Wind Farms Even More Expensive And Pointless Than You Thought

….When Professor David MacKay stepped down as chief scientific adviser to the Department of Energy and Climate Change (Decc) last year, he produced a report comparing the environmental impact of a fracking site to that of wind farms. Over 25 years, he calculated, a single “shale gas pad” covering five acres, with a drilling rig 85ft high (only needed for less than a year), would produce as much energy as 87 giant wind turbines, covering 5.6 square miles and visible up to 20 miles away. Yet, to the greenies, the first of these, capable of producing energy whenever needed, without a penny of subsidy, is anathema; while the second, producing electricity very unreliably in return for millions of pounds in subsidies, fills them with rapture…’

Is the World becoming fed up?

Victor Davis Hanson makes the case-

Here

From the article-

“Europe and the United States are seeing glimpses of the ultimate leftist trajectory — a mixture of Greece and Detroit, de facto non-enforcement of the law, the Iranian nuke deal, a new McCarthyism, and race, class, and gender hatred — and are becoming afraid and perhaps appalled. A growing number of people sense that 21st century leftist elites are not pragmatic working people, but a privileged sect that callously experiments with other people’s lives on the understanding that they are insulated and immune from the inevitable disasters that follow from their own ideas.”

 

WHERE IS THE EVIDENCE?

NZ:
‘..In a consultation paper, the Ministry for the Environment estimated raising the target from 5 per cent to 10 per cent would cost households $30 more a year. Raising it to 40 per cent would cost households about $530 a year.
But environmental advocates said the ministry had failed to include the cost of not acting on climate change. A 2013 drought fuelled in part by man-made climate change, for example, cost the New Zealand economy more than $1.3 billion…’
Who are these “environmental advocates”? What are their backgrounds, expertise, sources of funding? Who do they speak for?
And where is the evidence that the 2013 drought was “fuelled in part by climate change”?
How about we factor in the very real possibility (supported by real evidence) that the earth is entering a cooling phase. The costs of not acting in that case would be horrific, especially since so much capital has been squandered in support of the global warming scam.

The joys of multiculturalism:

‘First cousin marriages are practised within Britain’s Pakistani community, as well as among some Arab and African families. Medical data previously suggested that while British Pakistanis were responsible for 3 per cent of all births, they accounted for 30 per cent of British children born with a genetic illness…’   Link

‘While You Were Sleeping’

Richard Fernandez:
‘..Nothing in the external world changes in the immediate aftermath of a crash. What changes are the claims on that physical world. The iron rule is: the players never lose a seat, but you may lose yours.  It’s the rest who suddenly awaken to stores that are not theirs, jobs that no longer exist, and sales orders that have been canceled. They go from employed to being unemployed; from solvent to broke.
They’ll ask themselves: “why? why?”  Well now you know why.
…Unfortunately we still live in a world governed by ancient 19th century Marxian ideas, where politicians regard information as infinitely corruptible, in a world where lies are not only common, but the stuff of power, the very sinews of privilege.  A financial crisis occurs when information goes so far out of whack with the physical world the music has to stop, and those without a chair must be booted off.
What a financial crisis does is bring an awakening world face to face with its own falsehoods. Suddenly they are in the nightmare world. But it’s a not a new world at all.  Only the one the players had been constructing all along.’

The Key government’s bet on China

doesn’t look too clever now.
The R word is beginning to pop up more frequently……
But of course, the Key Gang have their priorities sorted:
‘The Government commits to a new, more ambitious climate change target.’
Doing the bidding of their U.N. masters. Kiwis need to wake up to the fact that they’re governed by a European-style socialist, PC, multiculti gang which is all but indistinguishable from the European-style socialist, PC, multiculti “opposition”.
