HMG BUDGET SPECIAL – Letter from Great Britain – [03-08-24]

The House of Commons has reached an all time low in the opinion of a majority of Brits and trust has been lost, possibly forever. If you call Britain your home I suggest that moving to the southern hemisphere may well save your life in the coming years. Answer this question: “What percentage of the global population (eight billion souls) live in the southern hemisphere?” Google and you will be shocked! The regular ‘Letter from Great Britain’ will be published later on Saturday as usual.

Britain is at a low for living standards as yesterday’s budget shows; taxation a 70-year high by 2028-29, and pensioners are fleeing the Tories in droves – [Torsten Bell, CEO Resolution Foundation]

George Galloway (British Workers Party), who won a major victory in Rochdale last week, has taken a swipe at Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer, accusing him of “double-dealing” in last month’s vote on a ceasefire in Gaza.

The Financial Jigsaw Part 2, Chapter 4 – PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION – Introduction to a Journey of Self-discovery – Cognitive Dissonance – Fiat Currency – Toxic Debt – [03-02-24]

The Financial Jigsaw Part 2 – Chapter 4 moves away from macroeconomic and geopolitical issues, which are covered in my weekly Letters, and enters the main body of Part 2 focusing on personal survival in a broad spectrum of life management processes. This Chapter prepares readers for a journey of self-discovery which is the first stage of dealing with the engineered Polycrisis we are experiencing today.

INTRODUCTION

(To Personal Transformation)

“We cannot change the external world nor can we change other people. We CAN change how we perceive the world, how we perceive others and how we perceive ourselves” [Gerald G. Jampolsky, M.D. – “Love is Letting Go of Fear”]
“People who work together will win, whether it be against complex football defences; or the problems of modern society.” [Vince Lombardi]

During 1993 I made a major career transition from that of a corporate and business career to one of a more socially responsible activity. Having retired from my successful business in 1993 I joined the Citizens Advice Bureau as a volunteer and found that I thoroughly enjoyed helping people solve their personal life management problems.

Dear TBPers – as my special readers, you need to know that my Substack P & S became unusable last week. I have set up a temporary Stack here until Substack mends it! https://protectsurvive.substack.com/p/the-financial-jigsaw-part-2-chapter?r=hkcp6&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

BOOM EDITORIAL THIS WEEK

BOOM described how those six banks have decided to abide by the oversight and agenda of a United Nations Organisation (NZBA) rather than the US Government. This is akin to corporate treason. BOOM pointed out that it also may be unlawful. The by-line for NZBA gives the game away. In propagandistic style it says “Industry-led, UN convened”. It should read UN-led – UN Convened.

URGENT NOTICE TO READERS. My Substack, Austrian’s Newsletter – Protect & Survive became inoperable yesterday. I have notified Substack but regret I will not publish today as I’m unable to login. For the time being, I am using this temporary site and readers can access all my work here: https://www.theburningplatform.com/author/austrian-peter/. There will be no email notice for this Stack.

PERCEPTION versus REALITY – “Perception is reality” – BUT IS IT? Maybe it’s Fake News and Blatant Lies? Perception may be defined as the recognition and interpretation of sensory information. Perception also includes how we respond to information. Information alone is of little use unless it comes together with understanding.

This week, BOOM calls out HMG’s ‘Absolute Zero’ policy as an urgent reminder, especially for Gen Z, that life in Britain as we have known it, will end during this decade.

Absolute Zero is a report produced by the ‘UK FIRES Group’, dated 29^th November 2019. FIRES stands for ‘Future Industrial Strategy Resource Efficiency’. Why they called it the ‘FIRES Group’ instead of the ‘FISRE Group’ is a mystery.

BOOM this week dispels a few long-held myths, including global overpopulation (Malthus) and ‘fossil’ fuels, which are, in truth, abiotic hydrocarbons.

TESLA IS POUNDED – SHARES DROP PRECIPITOUSLY. BOOM has been following the shares of Tesla closely over the last few months, as regular readers will know.

In last week’s editorial, BOOM wrote, “Tesla shares have been in downtrend for the last two years and that downtrend now seems recently confirmed. There is some buyer support around $190. However, if that level is broken, then stronger falls may be coming.”

BOOM EDITORIAL THIS WEEK

The official narrative from the WEF (the so-called “World Economic Forum”), the IPCC (the so-called Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change), and almost all national Western governments is that “clean energy” and fake meat (‘ze bugs’) are the future. Of course, the politicians have not bothered to check if such ideas are commercially, technically or socially viable in the long term. They leave that to the technocrats who blindly follow the WEF and the IPCC. Critical thinking is absent in the halls of power.
