Who’s Killing Daffodils?

by Bill White [Transcript] Here’s a mystery for you... More than 1,000 daffodils have been cut down or pulled up after they had been planted by the residents of Saint Blazey, a small English village of around 4,600 people midway down the Cornish coast. The local town council has denied cutting down the flowers. In fact, Town clerk Gaynor Mamo said “if daffodils had been cut down” it was nothing to do with the local authority. IF? The flowers are laying dead on the ground where they once grew… Regardless, that’s her story and she’s sticking to it. However, the council did confirm that it will not be replanting the bulbs “for health and safety reasons”. What? Health and safety reasons? Are daffodils now a dangerous breed… of flower? The story gets worse, Dr Mark Evans, from the Southwest Health Protection Unit, has chimed in saying: “Daffodils are toxic and severe vomiting and diarrhoea can occur if eaten by mistake. “Although very unpleasant,” he continued, “most people will recover fully without treatment.” Apparently, if you intend to eat the flowers, you’re good to go. The Southwest Health Protection Unit is charged with and I’m quoting now, "Ensuring the safety and quality of food, water, air, and the general environment. Preventing the transmission of communicable diseases. Managing outbreaks and the other incidents which threaten the public health." Well, we can now add to that list of important objects, protecting us all from dangerous flowers. Are you asking yourself how did we get here? How is it that government employees feel they’re entitled to protect us from flowers? Let me tell you, this is what happens when you encourage the Nanny State. A myriad of bureaucrats, each one with just enough authority to satisfy their appetite for power and their need for control over others, combined with far too much money in their budgets, paid by taxpayers, who have somehow forgotten that they’re paying for the abuse the government wields. Well, in this case, I am calling on EVERY resident of Saint Blazey to plant daffodils. Plant daffodils in your front garden, in your back garden, and fill planters if your estate is small… fill every available space. And for all the fact-checkers out there, while daffodil farming has declined in some areas, the UK still produces 90% of the world's cut daffodils and exports to Europe and the United States; in fact, 80% of these daffodils are grown in Cornwall and yet, for some unknown reason the authorities in Saint Blazey are out to rid the Community of this dangerous flower. But after all that, we’re still no closer to knowing who killed these daffodils. Is there some mad person on the loose in Saint Blazey whacking flowers off at their stem in the middle of the night? Or is the council involved in a coverup? Does the culprit have plans to continue their war on flowers? This is a serious subject, indeed, are other genera of plants safe? I think a public inquiry is needed. ###

Will Joe Throw Hunter Under the Bus?

by Bill White [Transcript] For years Hunter Biden has been selling access to his father - then Vice President of the United States and now Democrat pResident in the White House (note, whenever a Democrat controls the Executive Branch, the “P” is silent). Anyway, everyone knows that Hunter was selling access to his father and to the Obama Administration in Ukraine, China, and other countries. And this fact has been available for [sic] everyone who would listen. Hunter has earned millions of dollars for himself and for the Biden family and he’s been passing a substantial share of that loot to the “Big Guy”, who according to Tony Bobulinski, Hunter’s business partner and Biden family confidant, the “Big Guy” is Joe Biden. If you doubt any of that, then, ask yourself how Joe Biden can afford three homes on a public servant’s salary… I’ve always wondered why the Internal Revenue Service doesn’t simply compare income tax returns for public officials with State property tax records but if it does, why hasn’t his lavish spending raised a red flag before? In any event, if the “Big Guy” isn’t Joe, then, who is it? Obama? So, quite a lot of what we know about Hunter’s wheeling and dealing comes from a laptop that he left at a Delaware repair shop, which was subsequently collected by the FBI. In the lead-up to the 2020 Presidential Election, there was a coordinated effort by social media, corporate media, and former government employees to censor these facts and the content of the laptop, all of which we know to be true. According to Chris Swecker, who served as assistant director of the FBI Criminal Investigative Division, the FBI left a receipt when Hunter’s laptop was collected by the Bureau. That receipt reveals what he called a “272 file” number, which Swecker says confirms an ongoing money-laundering investigation, at that time. Meaning, the FBI was investigating Hunter Biden before the election and yet the American public was denied that information. So, here's the thing. Did Joe know? OF COURSE, Joe Biden knew about Hunter’s pay-for-play scheme. Joe was receiving his share of the money. But he can’t admit to it because its grounds for impeachment and then criminal prosecution after removal from office. The question is will Joe Biden throw his son under the bus? The only ‘out’ for Joe is to deny ALL knowledge of Hunter’s dealings, but this leaves his son open to fraud charges. Selling or attempting to sell influence to a public official, when the person isn’t involved is a clear case of fraud, this quite apart from the unlawful influence-selling scheme itself. So, what will Joe Biden do? Will he throw Hunter under the bus and try to get his Administration’s Justice Department to sweep this mess under the carpet? I don’t think so. I believe that Hunter is going down. The question is, will Joe Biden be going with him? ###

Joe Biden is a National Security Threat

by Bill White [Transcript] During the 2020 U.S. Presidential election campaign, everyone saw and any genuinely open-minded person would have accepted that Joe Biden was suffering from some form of cognitive impairment. He didn’t actually campaign in any traditional sense of the word. Instead, his periodic pronouncements from the ‘basement’ and a compliant media reinforcing his message and the unlawful acts in at least six States, by those in control of the election process together with corporate media pronouncing any independent challenge to what was happening as untrue or a conspiracy theory, much like what was done with the Hunter Biden laptop story, assured Biden his “victory”. But the laptop story was true then AND it’s now been confirmed true or rather, it’s been accepted as having been true, but not before the damage was done. At the time, more than fifty members of the U.S. Intelligence Community pronounced the irrefutable facts that both Hunter and his father were compromised on several fronts, as Russian propaganda… The truth is Joe Biden, and his family are compromised, with kickbacks from Ukraine, China, and other countries and personal involvements that leave them open to blackmail. Now, after more than a year of Biden’s constant stumbling, bumbling attempts at communication there can be no doubt. Joe Biden is suffering from Alzheimer's disease, which is a progressive neurologic disorder that causes the brain to shrink or atrophy and for brain cells to die. Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia, a continuous decline in thinking, and behavioral and social skills that affect a person's ability to function independently. Of course, millions of Americans and others around the world will have witnessed the symptoms in their own families and so anyone who is honest knows that Biden is unable to function independently. It's a fact. Biden has dementia. The only question is who is running the country? Who is in charge? It’s not Biden. Who is making the important decisions before they force Biden’s hand across the page for a signature? I know that Leftists are afraid of removing Biden with the 25th Amendment because Kamala Harris would automatically become President. The Democrats know only too well that with Harris as President the chances of returning a Democrat to the White House would be impossible. So, they need to somehow carry Biden, while they search for an electable replacement. But at what cost? After just one year, the economy is in the toilet. The border is an open gateway for millions of illegals to cross and the threat of World War is a far greater risk than ever before and without a Commander in Chief in charge who understands what’s happening and is able to respond in real-time without confusion and without an unelected unknown third party making the decisions, there is a serious National Security threat for America and that threat is Joe Biden. Whatever you think of Kamala Harris, Joe Biden must be removed, and now! ###

Russian Sanctions are Theft

by Bill White [Transcript] Today, it’s Russian sanctions. I am incensed by the people who are celebrating what equates to the theft of personal property based upon whether successful businesspeople, and some former politicians have, or, as is the case, HAD some tenuous association with Vladimir Putin. Regardless of your take on the Russian invasion of Ukraine (and I’ll have something to say about that sooner rather than later), the fact remains that NONE of these so-called "Russian oligarchs" have ANYTHING to do with the running of Russia or the invasion of Ukraine and so they’re not oligarchs at all. What these people are, is, successful businessmen and according to a list produced by the British government, one Russian woman. Does anyone seriously believe that Putin didn’t anticipate this knee-jerk action by Western governments, who frankly, are using the war in Ukraine as a means to justify their existence, but more importantly, as a second act after the COVID19 ‘crisis’ failed to cover up their financial incompetence? None of these sanctions will seriously impact Putin, Russia, or the Russian people. To think otherwise is ridiculous. These sanctions will drive up the cost of oil and national gas for the West and they will cause food shortages in the West and very likely cause the U.S. dollar to crash. But of course, it's easy to get people with very little money to retaliate against the wealthy, and that's what our leaders are hoping for... to keep the peasants busy hating on Putin while they pass billions to their friends who produce the military equipment, paid for by the taxpayers, and gifted to Ukraine. No matter what you think about Russia or Ukraine, the sanctions are theft, with extra steps. Pure and simple. ###

I’m Not Anti, But…

by Bill White [Transcript] What the Hell is wrong with people? When did society lose its spine? Whether it’s safe spaces, so-called ‘inclusiveness’ or the deviants who have been granted access to our children and who seek to encourage their ‘feminine side’… from where I sit, we are collectively encouraging the pussification of an entire generation. Pick a subject; whether it’s the war in Ukraine, COVID19 vaccines, or vaccines in general, the “trans-Community”, or frankly, any subject. Whenever I speak to people about any of these subjects, they’re unable to express their opinion without first prefacing it with ‘I’m not anti… but….’ and then they add whatever they intended to say. Why start the discussion with an assumption about what I might think about what you might say? If I’ve already heard what you’re going to say, why are you telling me again? If you are assuming what I am going to think, why do you start from the negative? I might actually agree with you! Of course, based on your assumptions I’ll more than likely think you’re a fool. BUT WHO CARES??? This is my opinion. I don’t need a safe space. I don’t take medications of ANY kind that I don’t need… and I think inclusiveness starts with someone wanting to belong to an existing society, not change the one we have. And, frankly, I think anyone who tries to teach young children about sex or discusses their sex life with preteen children should be arrested and prosecuted. I am still young enough to be ABLE to remember when people had spines to go along with their opinions. People grow a spine! Just say what you think!! STOP coddling and enabling the whining, militant Leftists among us. They’re insane. ###

Boris Johnson Has Gotta Go!

by Bill White [Transcript] Last December, Prime Minister Boris Johnson categorically denied that any COVID19 rules had been broken by him or anyone at Number 10; saying quite clearly in the House of Commons and elsewhere that “No rules were broken”. He repeated this claim a number of times. BOJO uttered that lie when he knew perfectly well that the rules had been broken AND not once, not twice, not, not three times (which some might forgive) but dozens of times and not by a couple rogue members of staff, but by a majority of the Downing Street employees… BUT more importantly, by the Prime Minister himself! Frankly, either the Prime Minister lied or he’s simply not mentally fit to lead the country. As we approach the 1st of April this Prime Minister continues to prove time and again that the joke is well and truly on the British public. Boris Johnson does not accept that he is subject to the same rules he sets for everyone else. This Prime Minister’s political life, even before he became leader of the ‘Conservative’ Party, has been the subject of investigation after investigation, scandal after scandal and yet now, as Prime Minister and as his arrogant and reckless behaviour continues, he refuses to resign. The Party faithful, as expected, defend him, claiming among other so-called ‘achievements’ that he ‘Got Brexit Done’ and that he’s implemented a points-based immigration system, but neither of those claims are true. We’re no further out of Europe than we were before Brexit and the government’s plan to accept tens if not hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian immigrants and to grant them immediate access to the National Health and other benefit entitlements because of a war that threatens Europe, which by the way we’re supposed to have left, reveals that his achievements are not fit for purpose. Today we learned that more than 20 fixed penalty notices or fines have been issued to members of the Downing Street staff and while the Prime Minister’s name was not found within the first tranche of ‘tickets’ more fines are said to be coming so time will tell whether Boris Johnson will get his at a later date. What we know if that he lied to Parliament when he claimed no rules were broken. It would be impossible for him not to have known that wine and cheese parties, bring your own booze gatherings and his own birthday party were not violations of the strict COVID19 rules he had imposed on the rest of the nation and to suggest otherwise is to ignore the obvious. I don’t care that Downing Street was having parties. Their behaviour merely confirms what I already knew to be true and which the Prime Minister and his lackeys understood all too well—that the COVID19 restrictions were political theatre, a plan to control the masses and to divert attention from the real truth… that the economy was in the toilet. Surely Boris Johnson understands that the pandemic came at the perfect time to protect his administration from the reality of Brexit. COVID19 was used to excuse why the economy was in shambles. The government milked that excuse for as long as it could and then as if by magic, the Russian invasion of Ukraine miraculously appeared to take the place of waning death and infection rates, that signaled that that ruse had run its course (meaning the peasants would no longer submit). The sad truth is that very few people actually believe this Prime Minister when he speaks. The people deserve better. He is a serial liar, a disgrace to the woman and many men who held this High Office before him and who somehow managed to do so without lying as he does. It’s time for him to resign. Boris Johnson has gotta go! ###

Will Smith Should be Charged!

by Bill White [Transcript] Listening to Commentators and reading people’s Tweets about Will Smith’s recent behaviour at the Oscars, I could be forgiven for thinking that Black Lives no longer matter. But, I am shocked. Shocked I tell you, that a Black man could be attacked at a public venue and no one would come to his aid. And while the majority of the witnesses were White, a number of the audience were Black and Hispanic, and yet all of these people failed to act—it’s shocking. Truly shocking. Of course, I am speaking about the bitch slap that’s been heard around the world-- Another in a growing list of subjects that clearly divides our society, but just in case you’ve been in a coma for the last couple of days, the other night Chris Rock, a comedian, took a comedic swipe at Jada, Will Smith’s wife who sports a skinhead because of Alopecia, which sounds very serious indeed, but simply means hair loss or baldness. So, basically, she’s a bald chick. In his monologue, Chris Rock referred to a potential G.I. Jane sequel, because Demi Moore famously shaved her head for the 1997 Ridley Scott film. I thought it funny, but maybe you disagree... At first, both Smiths appeared to chuckle, but Jada grimaced slightly, and then Will found it necessary to march onto the stage and rather dramatically bitch slap Chris Rock. After the assault, Smith returned to his seat and then shouted a number of aggressive, fouled mouth demands to the comedian, who tried to laugh it off… What didn’t happen was that no one ran onto the stage to protect Chris Rock. No one sought to prevent a visibly upset and verbally threatening Will Smith from returning to the stage, to finish his victim off… Security and police, who are present at all such events (not to mention all of the minders who must be standing in the wings), failed to move in, to detain, or dare I say, arrest Will Smith for what is clearly battery. By the way, Section 242 of the California Penal Code defines battery as "any willful and unlawful use of force or violence upon the person of another," punishable by a fine not exceeding $2,000 dollars, and/or by imprisonment in jail for a maximum of six months. When witnessed by police it does not require a complaint, so, why hasn’t Will Smith been charged? Is it simply okay to batter someone if they insult your wife? Would it have been different if instead of Will Smith, a white man had committed the crime? What if someone insults your child? What is wrong with those people who applaud Will Smith's behaviour? Where does it end? Will Smith should be charged! ###

Government Spending is Out of Control

by Bill White [Transcript] Ask yourself… How much is too much!? Does everyone within the sound of my voice think that when we started electing the most popular people, instead of the most qualified person to rule a nation that it meant these people could tax us without limit and then spend MORE money than they collect? When is the last time that any government, anywhere, checked with the taxpayers before they ran up more debt in our names than could ever possibly be repaid? Do you agree with government sending billions of pounds [or dollars, whatever] worth of military equipment off to other countries that we literally spent years trying to distance ourselves from? Taxpayers paid for the equipment or more accurately are still paying for it and so shouldn’t we collectively get a say when our property is shipped off to our ‘neighbour’, nearly 2,000 miles away? I want to know... Do you seriously think any of the money politicians spend on their pet projects is their money? When government announces its latest spending spree don’t you ask yourself ‘when will it end?’ We’ve just been through more than two years of GLOBAL out of control spending, while at the same time governments shut down nearly every business and prohibited people from working and to add insult to injury, our leaders paid people money to stay home, money they didn’t have and which we will have to repay. We can obviously debate whether or not anything that government did during the recent pandemic made a positive contribution to the health of a nation, and I would argue that what they did actually caused more deaths than it saved, but what we know for damned sure is that those in charge have destroyed the economies of a majority of the countries on earth. ‘Am I the only one that thinks it’s time for an intervention? ###

Apologise for Slavery?

by Bill White [Transcript] They’re at it again, folks. For the love of G-D, Leftists are at it again... While in Jamaica a couple of days ago, Prince William expressed his 'profound sorrow' at the 'abhorrent' slavery and echoed his father's sentiments, saying it (historical slavery) 'stains' British history in what some people called an 'emotional speech'. Just why he felt he had to say anything is anyone’s guess. Leftists immediately blasted his words as unacceptable because William failed to grovel and apologise to locals for events that happened hundreds of years before he was born. I'll blast William's speech because it's complete nonsense. What Prince William and anyone who has ever asked about this subject should have said is that it's ancient history--Britain abolished slavery in 1805. People who are REALLY concerned with such matters should look toward China and several Arab nations that practice slavery today! But the Left, who hate Britain and will do whatever they can to degrade its rich history demand is an apology for slavery... Apologise? To WHOM? Every victim of slavery that took place at the hands of the British Commonwealth is long dead. Who would we be apologising to? These insane militant Leftists are NATURALLY demanding reparations. Of course, they are... It’s always about money with these people… Reparations are always sought by the idiots who wrongly believe money paid to SOMEONE by government is the government's money. It's not. It's the taxpayers' money, and none of Britain’s taxpayers have contributed in any way to anyone ever being enslaved. They’re insane. The whole proposition is ridiculous! ###

What is a Woman?

by Bill White [Transcript] Many politicians and others have recently been placed in the unwelcomed position of having to state publicly how they define “a woman’, in recent days some journalists have been asking "How do you define a woman?" Or simply, "What is a woman?" The responses to that simple question have been quite extraordinary. Former Vice President Biden's recent Appointee to the U.S. Supreme Court, Ketanji Brown Jackson when asked, replied, "I'm not a biologist" and then refused to be drawn into the question further. Biden (literally) appointed this person BECAUSE she is a black woman as he has said many times. Imagine for a minute giving evidence in Judge Jackson's court when a lawyer asks you to tell the court if the person who assaulted the victim was a man or a woman and you reply; "I don't know, I'm not a biologist." Does anyone seriously believe that you could offer such a flippant, unresponsive reply? Others are no better, for example, Britain's Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who got closer, but even BoJo refused to simply state the irrefutable facts yesterday when he was asked the same question. This weak, feckless, and frankly, pathetic virtue signaling to the militant Left, WHO ARE seeking to destroy our society, will not end well. Either our 'leaders' will push back to protect our culture and society or the sane among us will eventually remove them from office. The answer is really quite simple: A woman is an adult human female. Wait, you might ask: What's a female? Well, as it terms out, there is a foolproof scientific test for that and as Leftists constantly remind us, we MUST FOLLOW THE SCIENCE. Females have two X chromosomes, while males have one X and one Y chromosome. Question: What is a woman? Answer: A woman is an adult human with two X chromosomes. It is really that easy. There is another equally foolproof VISUAL test that’s been used by every doctor attending the birth of a human being since the dawn of man and while I have never tested someone's chromosomes, I have applied the other test and, in my experience, it works a treat! ###
