Crime in the UK has become so insane that employees at coffee shops and grocery stores are now wearing body cameras for their own safety. The government wonders why average citizens are taking to the streets to protest. What has changed among the demographic of the UL to cause violence toward these workers to increase by 50% in the past year?
Grocery chain Lidl has invested £2 million on body cameras. Employees in every store will be required to wear a body camera as a safety precaution. Popular coffee chain Pret A Manger has also begun asking their employees to wear a camera that will be turned on in “specific circumstances.”
Shoplifting across the UK has doubled from last year, with 16.7 million recorded incidents, according to the British Retail Consortium (BRC). The BRC believes that thieves have looted over £2bn so far this year. More alarming, the BRC has reported 1,300 cases of violence and abuse against retail workers DAILY.
News reports cite that shoplifting and violence have simply increased since COVID. Who is assaulting food and retail workers? The UK was once considered a developed nation where people could go to work or shop at the store without the fear of violence. The UK, America, Canada, and every nation that has seen the demographics of their population drastically change in a short amount of time are experiencing a massive uptick in violent crime. Open border policies are turning modern societies into second-world nations with low-trust societies.
Britain has lost its historical roots and, thus, its mind. Britain has embraced the very idea of George Orwell’s 1984 as a good idea. They now engage in a desperate attempt to imprison anyone who dares to criticize the government because they know they are losing power. Instead of looking objectively at what they have done to their country, they have embarked on the most tyrannical approach to imprison people who disagree with government policy regardless of what it might be.
I don’t know what to say anymore. I loved living in Britain. It brings such sadness to my heart to see the direction of Britain and the entire West. Yes, these harsh actions will stir the sentiment even more and risk civil war in Britain. This is why they will turn to war with Russia for they need desperately to create a distraction to survive politically.
Æthelstan (c. 894; King English 927-939AD) was King of the Anglo-Saxons from 924 to 927 and King of the English from 927 to his death in 939AD. From that point in history, 927AD, we are approaching a major long-term cyclical event in the 2028-2029 time period.
Our computer has been projecting that the British pound will collapse and penetrate the 1985 low as we move into the years ahead. This is a chart of the pound just since 1904. Britain’s glory days are gone. This year, 2024, was a double-directional change, signaling Britain’s decline and fall in the years ahead. This is more than just Harry turning his back on Britain. At the London Conference, we even put forth the forecast for the potential fall of the British House of Windsor, which was founded on July 17th, 1917.
The UK police are now threatening not only British citizens with arrest for posting things they don’t like on social media. Still, they are now even threatening to extradite people from other countries who dare to challenge their tyrannical regime, which is obviously in fear of losing power. They have no INTERNATIONAL jurisdiction to impose their laws on the rest of the world.
Since the American Revolution was against the monarchy, why would they comply with international law at that time and send someone back to England for a crime committed in America to be punished by a king they did not recognize? The American Constitution established territorial jurisdiction for the first time. So, someone convicted of a crime would be punished in America for his crime in America. Now, the problem has become a question of rights under the Constitution. Did a foreign citizen have a right to a fair trial? The definition of “We the People” had to extend to anyone tried in America, regardless of citizenship.
The touchstone in United States v. Verdugo-Urquidez was correct, constitutionally speaking, for it extended to one’s connection to this country in compliance with territorial jurisdiction. The court declared that this “We the People” definition applied consistently throughout the Bill of Rights and did not limit rights to anyone.
Britain is in dire straights. All we hear about is the US debt, but things are far worse in Britain than in the USA. Britain has some £2.6 trillion in “unfunded” public sector pension entitlements, and it keeps hiring more and more government workers. Additionally, Britain is legally mandated to hit a net zero target, which the government has already estimated will add at least another £300 billion to the government’s costs over three decades. When you look around, Wales has 28% of its population on public subsistence. Yet all of this is just the surface.
The new Labour government in Britain intends to go after non-doms, and they will leave Britain and take their spending with them, adding to the necessary pressure. Letting in unqualified migrants and forcing wealthy non-doms to leave is only going to result in rising taxes in Britain and long-term civil unrest. However, the real crisis will be the burden of taxation that is consuming economic growth. The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) has pointed out that the tax burden in Britain will rise to 37.7% of GDP by 2027-28, up from 33% in 2020. This will only further reduce the long-term economic growth of Britain.
Looking at the tax burden as a percent of GDP, the United States was at 27% in 2020, and Canada at 32%. In 2020, Germany in 2020 stood at 37%, with the highest in the world being France at 46.2%. Civil unrest begins to rise when you actually cross 31%, and revolution tens to unfold after 50%. Governments never learn from the past. Virtually every revolution in history is because of taxation.
Shakespeare’s famous quote, “The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers,”is not actually about lawyers. You have to understand the context. Private individuals were not allowed to have lawyers in those days – only the king could have lawyers. The right to counsel only came with the American Revolution and the Constitution. Therefore, Shakespear was talking about the “PROSECUTORS” of the king – not private lawyers.
Shakespeare’s famous quote comes from a rebellion:
DICK: The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.
Jake Cade led the second tax revolt in England after the Black Death, and the king’s “lawyers” (prosecutors) aggressively seized homes and prosecuted people wrongly at that time who could not pay taxes. Politicians need to look at history. When you extract over 30% of GDP, people begin to circumvent government. This is why they want digital currencies and eliminate paper money altogether for taxation purposes. Exceeding 40% GDP unleashes civil protests. Quite incredibly, even the Labour chancellors of the 1970s, such as Denis Healey, who ()famously promised to tax the rich “until the pips squeak,” failed to comprehend that the rich can hoard their wealth and end investment, whereas the working class cannot hoard their labor. As you approach 50%, you are asking for revolution.
Thierry Breton, the EU Commissioner for Internal Market, has sent Elon Musk a letter threatening to take legal action against X if he doesn’t censor his interview with Trump. This appears to be the EU now engaging in foreign election interference in the United States. Bureaucrats can now try to silence anyone for whatever reason they like from a global perspective.

The Paris Olympics was a preview of what to expect under Agenda 2030 and other lofty climate change goals. Paris aimed to host the most sustainable Olympics in history with a 50% target reduction in carbon emissions compared to previous Olympics like Rio 2016 or London 2012. The world’s most impressive athletes are now speaking out to tell the world that climate goals are NOT sustainable for human life.
First, the International Olympic Committee planned to offer the athletes sustainable living conditions. The unairconditioned rooms had cardboard beds made of reusable materials. The picture of Italian swimmer Thomas Ceccon sleeping outside has gone viral. “There is no air conditioning in the Village, it’s hot, the food is bad,” he told The Sun. “Many athletes move for this reason: it’s not an alibi or an excuse, it’s the reality of what perhaps not everybody knows.” He said he was too tired to make the final as he was exhausted from the climate-friendly accommodations.
Countless athletes left the Olympic village to find alternative housing. The organizers eventually caved and provided some form of air conditioning to athletes due to the high number of complaints. The geothermal cooling systems simply failed. Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo, meanwhile, told the athletes to “trust the science” ahead of the games. Where have we heard that before?
“We appreciate the concept of not having air conditioning due to the carbon footprint,” Australian Olympic Committee CEO Matt Carroll said last year. “But it is a high-performance Games. We’re not going for a picnic.” They want you to believe that simple heating and cooling is a luxury that can be discarded in the name of science. We are now hearing from Olympians, the pinnacle of human strength and health, that they could not forego cooling systems.
Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum has said that people will eat bugsand enjoy them. Shamefully, that is precisely what the Olympic organizers fed athletes. “The science” claims that cattle is killing our environment since it releases too many emissions. The Olympic Committee boasted of serving a mainly plant-based menu to athletes, ignoring the obvious issue that nutrition and protein are essential.
Countless athletes complained that they were hungry and did not have enough to eat. Worse, the food provided lacked the proper nutrition for their bodies to perform. “I want to eat meat, I need meat to perform and that’s what I eat at home, so why should I change?” British swimmer Adam Peaty, 29, told iNews. “I like my fish and people are finding worms in the fish. It’s just not good enough. The standard, we’re looking at the best of the best in the world — and we’re feeding them not the best.”
They are seeking to reduce the amount of meat everyone can eat. They are creating lab-grown alternatives without knowing the repercussions. Farmlands are being bought en mass and thousands of cattle and chickens are being slaughtered in nations abiding by the WEF agenda.
Then there are reports of athletes falling ill after swimming in the Seine that was never properly cleaned. There is a reason President Macron backed out of his obligation to swim in that filth. Rules for thee but not for me. The masses will be forced to sacrifice human comforts to promote the climate change agenda. YOU are the carbon they want to eliminate.
