‘Spiritual’ really does not mean very much at all in the scheme of things. Spiritual means we are all spiritual matter. Every single one of us. Nothing special. No path to sainthood. Even your worst enemy is ‘spiritual’.

Care4Calais is not a charity ATTENTION. Care4Calais is not a charity. It is a political machine with a charity's tax status. It is the last friendly face on a terrorist highway. And it has been caught with its hand in the till. Anyone who still calls it a charity after this is complicit. THE MONEY Start with the money, because money does not have opinions. £340,092.47. Say it slowly. Three hundred and forty thousand, ninety two pounds, and forty seven pence. That is the sum the Charity Commission found had been paid into the personal bank account of the founder of Care4Calais. Not the charity's account. The founder's account. A private individual's bank account, holding the money of a public charity, and the regulator only found out because it launched a statutory inquiry. The inquiry opened on 12 August 2020. It was published on 24 August 2023. Three years of digging, and the conclusion the Commission reached, in its own words, was serious misconduct and/or mismanagement. Read that again. Serious. Misconduct. Mismanagement. That is not a quibble about stationery. That is the regulator of every charity in England and Wales saying the people running this one did not know where the money was or did not care. And the founder? Clare Moseley. She has never been charged with anything. She has never been convicted of anything. But the charity she built, with her name on the culture and her hand on the tiller, was found to have serious problems with money that passed through her own hands. Now the farce, because this is where it stops being a spreadsheet and starts being a story. A complaint was raised about the founder. Who handled it? The founder's sister. A complaint about Clare Moseley, investigated by a Moseley. Independence on paper, family at the kitchen table. The founder threatened to cut off a volunteer's hair. Someone used pepper spray in an internal row. This is the organisation that presents itself as the calm, professional, establishment-friendly face of British asylum policy. Behind the curtain it is a family operation where the founder's sibling polices the founder and disputes get settled with hair threats and mace. Here is what the money section actually proves. It proves culture. A charity with a thin board, a founder with total personal gravity, seven trustees who between them have almost no other directorships in the entire country, and a quarter of a million pounds that was allowed to sit in one person's account. That is not an accident. That is a design. And it is the first clue to the thing we come back to at the end: this is a movement wearing a charity's clothes. The founder is not just a founder. She is a co-convenor of Love Music Hate Racism. The charity sits inside a coalition. The whole operation is political, and political operations protect their own, which is why the money story has never properly landed. But the money is the beginning. The money is the part everyone can agree on. Next is the part that is harder to argue with, because it comes with a judge's signature on it. THE CHILDREN Care4Calais will tell you this is all about children. It is their best line, because it is true and because nobody wants to be the person who argues with a child. So let us take them at their word. Let us talk about children. And let us talk about the adults who were passed off as them. Start with the machinery, because this is not a few good samaritans helping out. Care4Calais runs a dedicated age dispute team. In 2025 alone, 312 migrants signed up for help challenging the age the Home Office had put on them. The charity prints a "new arrival guide", hands it out in Calais and Dunkirk, circulates it in several languages on phones, and it tells people what to expect at interview. Migrants describe it in their own words: it shows you "how to explain yourself". Read that phrase again. Not how the system works. How to explain yourself. Now the courtroom. Judges are the hardest people in Britain to call far-right, so watch what they did. March 2026. An Ethiopian man. Care4Calais backed him in a claim to be seventeen. His volunteer told the tribunal she believed him because he "does not like making decisions" and had asked her partner "how to shave". Judge Sarah Grey looked at the man, noted thick facial hair, a prominent Adam's apple, deep tear troughs, and a receding hairline, and ruled he was twenty two. Her words: a "conscientious effort to mislead the authorities". September 2025. A Sudanese man. Claimed to be seventeen on arrival in Dover. Care4Calais referred him to a council, which put him in children's accommodation. He had "established wrinkles on forehead" and a "pronounced Adam's apple". Judge Luke Bulpitt found he had "not given a credible account of his age", that his "willingness to conceal and to mislead" was clear. And earlier. A Sudanese man judged to be twenty eight. Claimed seventeen. Care4Calais referred him to a council. Five days after arriving he was housed as a child. Later reassessed at twenty five. His asylum claim was rejected. Three men. Three sets of wrinkles. Three children who were not children. The state's own figures: 6,255 age disputes closed in the year to March 2026. 43 per cent of them were found to be adults despite claiming to be children. Now be fair, because this is where a lazy post trips up. Care4Calais has an answer, and part of it is good. It points out that the majority of disputes go the other way, and that where independent social workers, not the Home Office, make the call, the number is far higher. Its argument is that the real scandal is children wrongly treated as adults. Fine. Both can be true. But here is what that answer quietly admits: the age of a human being is now a contested legal question in Britain, and Care4Calais is a party to the fight. Not a bystander. A participant. One that coaches people on how to explain themselves, then points at the results as proof of its own value. And the politicians have noticed. Chris Philp, the shadow home secretary, called the activity "borderline illegal and certainly not charitable" and said the Charity Commission should investigate and shut them down. Zia Yusuf, for Reform, said the charity is "aiding and abetting the mass invasion of unvetted males into Britain". Borderline illegal. Not charitable. Aiding and abetting. And this is the part that should scare Care4Calais most, because it is the part it cannot lawyer its way out of. The judges are the ones keeping the receipts. Every time a tribunal finds that a man the charity backed was an adult, that is not an opinion. That is a judgment. Signed. Published. Permanent. So far we have money in a founder's account, adults dressed as children, and a regulator and two parties closing in. Now the part nobody wants to talk about. The part where the word terrorist gets used, carefully, and then never goes away. THE TERROR HIGHWAY Let us be precise, because this is the block that decides whether the whole post stands up or gets laughed at in the replies. Care4Calais is not a terrorist organisation. It has no formal affiliation with one. If you say that, you are right and nobody can touch you. What Care4Calais is, is the soft end of a route that has delivered named terrorists into Britain. The route is the small boat. Calais to the English Channel to a beach in Kent. Care4Calais services that pipeline at the French end, hands out the tents and the food and the sim cards, and it is the last friendly face many of these men see before they get in the dinghy. It does not claim to vet them. It could not. It is aid, not border control. But look who has come down the pipe. Mohammed Yaseen. Went to Syria to fight for ISIS, came back, and turned up on the small boat route. Abdullah Albadri. Carried out the knife attack at the Israeli embassy. Serving life. Rebwar Hamad. A convicted terrorist in Italy. Came back to Britain by small boat. Ahmadyan and Salehi. Tied to the Manchester Yom Kippur bomb plot. Jihad al-Shamie. The Manchester synagogue attacker of October 2025. Five names. Every one of them on the same water, through the same system, on the same route the charity owns the last friendly mile of. Now the structural point, and this is the one that actually matters. The route has no documents and no vetting at the point of departure. You get on a boat in France. Nobody in Calais checks your identity against a database. You arrive. You claim an age, you claim a nationality, you claim a story. The Home Office then tries to work out, after the fact, who you actually are. And Care4Calais, remember, prints a guide telling you how to explain yourself at interview. So put the two halves together. A pipeline with no checks at the front. A charity at the front of the pipeline coaching the answers. And a state at the back of the pipeline that is, by its own admission, playing catch up. Do not take our word for the state's worry. Take the Home Office's. It hands asylum seekers a pamphlet at Wethersfield titled "Understanding behaviour and expectations in the UK". Inside it, apparently, the guidance is that you must not rape anyone and must not have sex with children. That is not a description of a system that knows who it let in. That is a system hoping for the best. And there is a beach where all of this becomes flesh. When a dinghy gets into trouble in the Channel, it is HM Coastguard that tasks the rescue, and it is the RNLI that answers. The lifeboat pulls the people out of the water and lands them on the shingle at Dungeness in Kent. And standing there to catch them, in a Care4Calais jacket, is a woman named Katie Sweetingham, the charity's emergency response team leader. She hands out water and snacks. She is the first English voice they hear. Her first words to them are: "Hi and welcome to England." Hold that phrase, because it is the whole thing in four words. The most trusted charity in Britain does the rescue. Care4Calais does the welcome. And then Care4Calais does the coaching. The RNLI pulls them from the water. Care4Calais tells them what to say when they get off the beach. Here is the sentence. Keep it. Care4Calais is not the terrorist organisation. It is the last friendly face on the terrorist highway. It cannot vet who gets on, and it coaches them on what to say when they get off. Not affiliation. Pipeline. Not hype. Highway. Not "the charity is a terror front". The charity is the smile at the start of a route the country cannot fully check. Which brings us home. Because there is one town in England where all of this, the money, the children, the boats, and the smiles, arrives on three buses every Thursday and stands in front of some of the bravest people in the country. THE DOORWAY Her name is Charlotte Khan, and she is the best thing Care4Calais has. Head of Advocacy and Public Affairs. The voice on the radio. The face on the news. The person they send when the cameras turn up and the charity needs to look reasonable, professional and kind. She has been doing it for years: on the Channel deaths, on the Rwanda bill, on the "safe routes" campaign, on why people get in the boats at all. When Care4Calais wants to sound human, it calls Charlotte Khan. And she is good at it. Watch her. She is calm, she is fluent, she never loses her temper, and she always has an answer. That is the point. She is the polish. The trouble is what she is polishing. Her defence of the charity runs on three tracks. Each one is smooth. Each one has a receipt against it. Line one: "the real scandal is the other way round." When the courts keep finding that people the charity backed were adults, the answer is to flip it, and say the real scandal is children wrongly classed as adults. Fair enough, as far as it goes. But listen to what it concedes. It concedes that the age of a human being is now a contested legal question in Britain, and that Care4Calais is in the fight, not outside it, coaching people on how to explain themselves. When your own coaching is in the room, you do not get to call the result someone else's fault. Line two: "these are just political attacks on charities." When Philp says "borderline illegal" and Reform says "aiding and abetting", the response is that politicians are picking on a charity to score points. But a political attack is only cheap if it is wrong. And the Charity Commission, which does not do slogans, ran a three year inquiry and found serious misconduct and/or mismanagement. That is not a party political hit. That is a regulator. Line three: "any accusation is grossly defamatory." When the accusations come, the language goes up. Untrue. Grossly defamatory. Misinformation that endangers staff. Strong words. And yet the charity has an answer for everything and an admission for nothing. A quarter of a million pounds in a founder's account is not an accusation, it is a filing. Adults found by judges to have posed as children are not a smear, they are a judgment. For four years, Khan fought this fight from studios and press releases. In September, she took it to the street. On Thursday 17 September 2026, Care4Calais ran its drop-in at the Salvation Army hall in Braintree. Three buses came in from the Wethersfield camp. And there, greeting the arrivals as they stepped off, was Charlotte Khan. Read that again. The charity that had suspended the drop-in in August over "security" concerns sent its most senior public face back to the door the moment the pressure was on. And she stood there smiling while, across the road, the locals who had been called far-right for standing outside a church hall got the middle finger from the men she was welcoming. That is Khan in one frame. The smile, the lanyard, the greeting. And behind her, everything else in this post, funnelling down to a doorway in Essex. Here is the honest bit, and it is what makes the piece work. Charlotte Khan is not the scandal. No adverse finding against her. No money in her account. No judgment with her name on it. She is clean. She is competent. She is probably the most likeable person in the whole story. That is exactly why she matters. Because when the regulator finds serious misconduct, when the judges keep correcting the casework, when the money goes missing and comes back in a private account, and when the whole thing collides in a market town, the person the charity puts in front of it all is a woman with a lanyard and a smile who never says sorry. She is not the crime. She is the alibi. Care4Calais has an answer for everything and an admission for nothing. And the face of that answer is Charlotte Khan. THE WOMAN WHO WOULD NOT BE SILENCED And across the road from that doorway stands the town. Not "pensioners". Pensioners sounds passive. These people are not passive. Call them the old guard. They have been called far-right thugs for the crime of standing outside a church hall with a flag. They have been trolled on social media. They have been told to stop protesting and get a job. At eighty. They have been spat at. Their names are Valerie and Chrissie, who marked their eightieth birthdays in matching tiaras. Ken, in a Union Flag bucket hat and matching neckerchief. Tony, who drove a London bus for forty five years. Lynette, who spent her working life in compliance. These are not cranks. These are the backbone of England, and they are being treated like the problem. Four months ago a small band of them decided to stand outside the Sally Army building every Thursday. When the council put security guards on the door, the old guard moved across the road and carried on. And the details that make people angry, because they are small and specific. The migrants come out of the Salvation Army holding up £100 trainers, kissing them, showing off. They give the old guard the middle finger. They swear at them. The allowance is £9.95 a week, while the camp has a gym, a football pitch, free meals, phones and prayer rooms. Ken, waiting three months for a blood test, watches a GP surgery open up inside the base. A nurse at the local hospital was sexually assaulted by a migrant she was treating, in January. A man was charged over an assault on a woman in May. And in the middle of all of it, one woman will not let it move on. Her name, online, is Free Speech Shell. She is the reason there is a record at all. Understand what she has been through to keep that record. In July 2023, her own home was attacked with weapons while she was nine months pregnant. In January 2024 the threats escalated to a threat to kill, and a police officer was assaulted. The case dragged through the courts, delayed by a late request for an interpreter, with a defendant facing charges of stalking involving fear of violence, harassment and bail breach. Two years of it. Her words: "as victims we have been silenced." And then the line that tells you everything: "I will no longer be silenced." So when Shell stands outside that Salvation Army hall on a Thursday with a phone in her hand, she is not a bystander. She is a woman who has been under siege in her own home, who knows exactly what it is to be ignored by the system, and who decided to become the system's memory instead. She is the one with the camera. She is the one with the receipts. She is the one who kept standing there when it would have been easier to stay home. And she has done it without a party behind her, without a press office, without a salary. Just a woman, a phone, and a refusal to be moved. She has taken it all the way to the national stage. She has been on GB News. She has grown from a local mum with a camera to a verified national voice with twenty five thousand followers. And she has done the homework nobody else did: in October she published a forensic breakdown of the legal-aid bill for Wethersfield, eighteen point eight million pounds in a single quarter, twenty one million on appeals, five point eight million on interpreters, a fifty one per cent rise, and one question the Government still cannot answer. How much has all of this cost, specifically, for Wethersfield? She is not just holding a flag. She is holding a spreadsheet. And she is not alone. AY Audits, a London man with a camera, has filmed the arrivals so relentlessly that his clips have been seen by millions and reposted by Farage himself. Between them they turned a quiet Thursday in a market town into a national story. And when Tommy Robinson came to Braintree in January and walked at the front of that march, and when he put Shell on the main stage at his Unite The Kingdom rally in May, the town stopped being a local story. Shell thanked him for it in October, calling him "a true patriot" and "a voice for the voiceless". The man and the movement found each other, and neither of them apologises for it. The council has now hired private security. Operation Vanguard, six guards, three towns, £150,000, a three month trial. In a consultation of 1,500 residents, 80 per cent backed it. Eighty per cent. And still the establishment line is that the locals are being a bit hysterical. The locals are not hysterical. The locals are right. So this is for Shell, and for Valerie and Chrissie, and Ken, and Tony, and Lynette, and every last one of ya in that town who got called a fascist just for lovin' where ya live. You ain't on your own. You never was the problem. You're just the last ones left in Britain still askin' the only question that matters. So go on then. Who you lettin' in? And did ya even check? Cos it's us mugs 'avin' to live wiv it. So sort it aht.

British Army regulation states that: "Male hair is to be cut short such that its length does not reach to the collar or onto the ears." It appears they can bend the rules for certain groups of people now.

My mother was an extreme alcoholic and very bitter after my dad divorced her. She then married a heroin addict who died of an overdose. She resented that my dad went on to be successful in a Hollywood. My by mother was not credible in any stretch of the imagination. She is deceased now and there's not even any proof that that was her letter.

HORRIFIC: What happened in Paris yesterday was horrific. A man is dead. Others are fighting for their lives. A 12-year-old girl was shot eight times. And before the blood was even dry, Macron was on camera declaring it a “racist terrorist attack.” Declaring that victims were selected for the colour of their skin and their religion. He called it a “turning point.” Then he said this: “It is the first time we have had a terrorist act that was planned to kill our compatriots, our children, based on the colour of their skin or their religion.” The FIRST time. Let that sink in. The first time? That single sentence should make every French citizen furious. So Toulouse wasn’t a turning point? When Mohamed Merah walked into a Jewish school and executed a rabbi and three small children point-blank, one of them just three years old? Charlie Hebdo wasn’t a turning point? When Islamists massacred journalists for drawing cartoons? Hyper Cacher wasn’t a turning point? When four Jews were murdered simply for being Jews while shopping for Shabbat? The Bataclan wasn’t a turning point? When 90 young people were slaughtered like animals inside a concert hall? Nice wasn’t a turning point? When a truck was driven through families and 86 people were crushed to death, children included? Father Jacques Hamel wasn’t a turning point? When his throat was slit at the altar of his own church? Samuel Paty wasn’t a turning point? When a teacher was beheaded in the street for showing his class free speech? Dominique Bernard wasn’t a turning point? How many corpses did France have to bury before it counted? How many Jewish children, journalists, shoppers, concertgoers, priests and teachers had to die? And let’s be clear about something else: the investigation into yesterday’s horror is still establishing motive. The facts are still being gathered. Yet Macron already has the narrative, the motive, the moral, and the political lesson ready to go. If the evidence proves racist intent, then condemn it to the fullest extent of the law. Call it what it is. No one will defend it. But do not rewrite French history to do it. Do not insult the memory of the dead to serve today’s narrative. France changed long ago. The French people know it because they lived it. They bled through it. They remember the little girl in Toulouse. They remember the editors slumped over their desks. They remember the hostages in the kosher store. They remember the bodies on the floor of the Bataclan. They remember the strollers shattered on the promenade in Nice. They remember the priest. They remember the teacher. You can try to push those atrocities into the background because they are inconvenient to your politics. But you cannot make a nation forget what it saw with its own eyes. Politicians can rewrite the narrative. They will never rewrite people’s memories. And they will never make France forget its dead

Sleep - cortisol - and changing patterns... from the perspective of someone who spent 30+ years in frontline sales. The only time I felt really bothered by lack of sleep was when I was in IT sales and was flying and/or driving a lot to catch planes and trains I couldn't miss. Having previously slept through alarms, I developed a preventative mechanism of waking earlier than the alarm. Meaning even less sleep. (Mark you, I couldn't stand being jarred awake with the alarm which was another reason for waking up before it went off.) But I never had actual insomnia and enjoyed really deep unbroken sleeps - just not for the hours recommended. (I also trained myself to literally jump out of bed the moment my eyes opened. Avoided rolling over for more winks and kickstarted adrenaline.) Since retiring, that's gone all over the place. Sometimes I'm asleep as soon as my head touches the pillow, sometimes I'm awake till the dawn, sometimes I wake in the night but go back to sleep with no problem and sometimes I have insomnia. Thankfully, however, retirement has removed that 'work-anxiety' factor - anxiety of oversleeping, anxiety of sleeping while driving, anxiety of not being on the ball, anixiety of tiredness making one lose focus while doing a presentation etc... We oldies can grab some sleep at any time without having to be beholden to anyone so there is no stress attached to sleeping or not sleeping. We lose that daily anxiousness that was more or less part of life for sales professionals. So it's interesting to read that cortisol "helps you to feel alert". Presumably we - or some of us - had exceptional cortisol reactions to stay alert for our jobs - but, as we age, it could be 'too much' - hence insulin resistance etc. Anyway, an interesting article on sleep: which.co.uk/news/article/why…

Rachel Reeves springs to mind with her self congratulatory exit comments.
This paper answers why confident idiots run the world. Cornell University published a psychological paper that explains every terrible boss, every loud influencer, and every broken corporate hierarchy. It’s called “Unskilled and Unaware of It.” they tested participants across logic, grammar, and humor to measure the gap between actual performance and self-perception. And the results are wild. participants scoring in the bottom 12th percentile consistently believed they were operating in the 62nd percentile. they were not lying. they were literally incapable of recognizing their own incompetence. the paper revealed a brutal paradox: the exact skills required to master a domain are the exact same skills required to accurately evaluate your own competence in that domain. if you lack the skill, you inherently lack the cognitive capacity to realize you are failing. this creates a dangerous systemic loop. the incompetent are blessed with absolute, blinding certainty. their brain protects them from their own ignorance, allowing them to speak first, demand authority, and never second-guess their decisions. meanwhile, the actual experts suffer the exact inverse. top performers in the study consistently underestimated their rank. because a task was easy for them, they falsely assumed it was easy for everyone else. they hesitate. they obsess over nuance. they assume they have nothing unique to add. we are biologically wired to confuse confidence with competence. the loudest person in the room gets promoted, gets funded, and gets the microphone, not because they know what they are doing, but because they are physically incapable of seeing what they don't. the only defense mechanism is building systems that stop rewarding absolute certainty and start demanding proof of work.

This fine, upstanding gentleman also likes to lick the anus of a male dog. What more do we need to know about him? Well since you asked, here are just a few of his other redeeming qualities: · January 2017 (Domestic Violence Arrest): Markle Jr. was arrested in Grants Pass, Oregon, following a drunken altercation with his then-girlfriend. He was accused of holding a handgun to her head during the argument and was charged with menacing, pointing a firearm at another person, and unlawful use of a weapon. · July 2018 (Domestic Dispute - Non-Arrest for Tom):Authorities were called to his home for another alcohol-fueled domestic dispute. During this incident, his fiancée was the one arrested and charged with fourth-degree assault after Markle Jr. suffered a black eye. · January 2019 (DUI Arrest): He was pulled over by Oregon State Police in Josephine County and arrested for driving under the influence. His blood-alcohol content was recorded at 0.11%, which is above the legal limit of 0.08%. He was taken to a local detox center.
