Local elections are the new battleground for the Zionist lobby and its astroturfing groups. Who are they, and how are they funded? Wendy Bacon asks.

Several months ago, residents in the Randwick LGA in Sydney’s East began receiving leaflets from a grassroots group called Randwick Voices Matter, encouraging them to join a campaign to stop a Greens Councillor from becoming the local Mayor.

In NSW, most Councils elect their Mayor every two years. When no group or party has a majority, Councillors form alliances to share the Mayoralty across the four-year term.

Great Britain is going through a war scare. Or to be precise, its combined political and media establishment is subjecting its people to a relentless propaganda (in up-to-date NATO-speak “cognitive warfare”) campaign to create a sense of impending war against Russia.

Albanese and Zelenskyy hold emotional meeting as Australia pledges more aid

Anthony Albanese was close to tears when he caught up with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on the sidelines of the summit.

The Australian prime minister embraced Mr Zelenskyy and expressed admiration for his "extraordinary" leadership in the almost five years since Russia's full-scale invasion.

He also pledged $60 million in aid for Ukraine, bringing Australia's total contribution to the country to almost $1.9 billion.

He also said Australia had slapped new sanctions on Russia and confirmed it would join a program, led by the UK and Norway, to help develop Ukraine's navy. The two leaders also signed a decade-long security deal.

Germany’s Axel Springer media monolith is about to award its highest honor to Palantir founder Peter Thiel, in a ceremony illustrating the incestuous relationship between the mainstream media, the defense tech industry, and the US-Israeli order.

Wired for War: The empire’s propaganda wing honors Palantir

Politico’s parent company is bestowing its highest award on Peter Thiel, who serves the same globalist agenda

Thiel will receive the ‘2026 Axel Springer Award’ at a ceremony in Berlin on Thursday. According to Axel Springer CEO Mathias Dopfner, Thiel “is one of the rare entrepreneurs who does not merely found or finance companies but helps determine the direction of technological development.”

“He reminds us that progress requires courage and nonconformism,” Dopfner added.

As Pauline Hanson’s steamroller [aka Gina’s BULLDOZER] is about to crush the delicate balance of the Aussie psyche — in a downward spiral of yobo-ism, with a wad of pseudo-fascism, some economic trumpism and mountains of ignorance in scientific fields, one needs to take a deep sighing breath and look at the incoming damage from One Notion that would be facing this country — a fair country presently swimming the Australian crawl against a very confused international current of stinking messy situations.

A HISTORY OF THE FUTURE

Australia in a downgrading World

Like in Germany, where the AfD is making huge inroad in classic politics, the Aussie landscape is about to be shaken by One Notion… if it has not been already… 

The latest state elections in Germany have confirmed a trend that is becoming increasingly difficult to dismiss. The issue is no longer the occasional success of one party or failure of another, but the gradual dismantling of a political system that for decades appeared almost permanent.

Germany’s age of political stability is ending

The AfD’s latest gains are only part of the story as Germany’s postwar party system fractures and stable government becomes harder to sustain

EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas has lashed out at the results of Russia’s parliamentary election, dismissing it as a “veneer of democracy.” The senior EU official, a noted Russia hawk who was appointed, not elected, to her post in 2024, made no mention of the 1,600 drones Ukraine launched into Russia during the vote.

Her claims of democratic dysfunction did not include Ukraine’s own indefinitely suspended elections, but stuck to a vote whereby some 60 million people cast ballots across 11 time zones.

Ed Sheeran says he has never wanted to be a political musician. He wants his concerts to be about “unity, not division” and “humanity, not politics.”

But after his tour became embroiled in controversy over the removal of rapper Macklemore, who publicly declared “Free Palestine” during Sheeran shows in New Jersey, Sheeran discovered that staying out of politics was no longer so simple.

President Trump on Sunday said that he was still deciding how to move forward on the Iran war and whether or not to blow up the “entire nation,” as the Iranian military is warning that it has information that the US will resume attacks on the Islamic Republic.

“The era of Westminster is coming to an end!” the nationalist leaders of Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland declared this week.

Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland have joined together to challenged Westminster. Here’s why the Cardiff Pact matters

By Vitaly Ryumshin, journalist and political analyst

John Swinney, Rhun ap Iorwerth, and Michelle O’Neill gathered in Cardiff to sign an agreement asserting their nations’ right to self-determination, as they called on London not to obstruct referendums and outlined their preferred futures beyond the UK, including EU membership for an independent Scotland and Wales, and Irish reunification for Northern Ireland.

The Ukrainian army is suffering 27,000 casualties a month in the conflict with Russia, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has said, offering a rare public assessment of Kiev’s losses.

Neither Ukraine nor Russia provides regular updates on its battlefield casualties. Kiev’s Western backers also largely refrain from publicizing exact figures or estimates of how many Ukrainian soldiers are being killed or wounded.

Tusk, one of Ukraine’s strongest supporters in Europe, revealed the casualty rate during a speech to the Polish parliament on Thursday. “The new Russian strategy, and above all its new technical capabilities, namely jet-powered drones, are also causing much greater losses on the Ukrainian side,” he said.

Bill Gates turned the vast financial resources of his foundation into political leverage, using its wealth to pressure governments to spend more on vaccination, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel has said.  

In the Meckel & Matthes podcast released by Handelsblatt earlier this month, Merkel warned that uncontrolled corporate power could leave governments doing “what the corporations order.” She said she first saw the danger not with the rise of artificial intelligence, but when Gates set up his foundation, which had more money “than the development budgets of major industrialized countries.”  

An unelected billionaire had effectively put himself on a political footing with elected leaders, according to Merkel.
