Today’s news behind the news, aggregated and updated throughout the day.

Storming the beaches of the Culture War, covering the latest Woke Supremacy, Big Brother and other related items.

Featuring occasional commentary from our three in-house writers.








COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW ARTICLE: Obviously the 20th anniversary is approaching. Granted 9/11 Truth isn’t something I have greatly factored in with this site, as it is a subject with a lot of nuance.

Then again, we do cover Big Brother news. So on the subject of that…

“In some ways she was far more acute than Winston, and far less susceptible to Party propaganda. Once when he happened in some connexion to mention the war against Eurasia, she startled him by saying casually that in her opinion the war was not happening. The rocket bombs which fell daily on London were probably fired by the Government of Oceania itself, ‘just to keep people frightened’.” (Excerpt from Nineteen Eighty-four by George Orwell).

I suggest coming to your own conclusions, regardless of whether you currently believe the official party line or some alternate view.

Our Recommended Reading section currently contains only a few suggestions on books on this subject. But there has been some good work done over the past two decades, both in books and documentary films. Feel free to contact me via the link in our menu if you want to discuss this further – BrandX.




COMMENTARY ON THE BELOW LINK: Apologies that this is a link to the big tech bad-boy supergiant Amazon. But the new book ‘Lessons in Courage: How I Fought Back Against Cancel Culture and Won’ by Nick Buckley MBE is now available for pre-order.

I was fortunate to be able to have a chat with Nick last week over Zoom and got the impression that this book will be very much from the heart. One man’s journey that started out in the spirit of ‘The Emperor’s New Clothes’ story.

From there, he ended up in a very desperate situation with a number of personal and professional losses. And then broke on through to the other side, finding the strength to fight back… at which point the winning was done – BrandX.
