Our smart TVs are surveilling us - along with Alexa" - and "Ring" doorbells. TVs not only record what we watch - what we say and do - but also what our emotions are - or appear to be. How did we get here?

The Texas Attorney General is investigating Big Pharma's incentives to doctors for giving children vaccinations with unproven benefits and safety. Will this end the lucrative 70 - and above - US shot schedule?

Rail incidents in Spain have suddenly been spotlighted. The cause of this major crash - claiming at least 42 lives - is not yet understood. People are wondering, if it signals a systemic problem with maintenance?

Reports of train collisions in Spain have become almost daily news. But with 4 accidents in less than a week - and 12 incidents in just 24hrs - people are now asking - is there a systemic reason?

There's no study - according to Ai - that shows vaccination save lives. Studies that say it does, are based on data modelling - not statistics. Does this mean vaccine mandates are based on belief - not science?

Men - some convicted of violent crimes such as murder and rape - are living among women in women's prisons. Many female inmates - already traumatised by male violence - find that it continues in prison.

Greenland is being eyed up by Donald Trump. As well as all the lucrative minerals, the island offers a perfect location for data centres. Is Trump building - or is he aiming for world domination by corporations?

A pastor was kidnapped by the Malaysian police and gov't. The police lied about who abducted him - but a court has ruled it was the state. Nearly 9yrs on, his family still doesn't know what happened to him.

A business owner and Labour donor was told by the UK gov't to say sorry for a social media post mentioning Israel's PM. The gov't even threatened to refuse future donations from him - this must be serious!

The world's first octopus farm is planned - part of an expansion of a form of farming that weakens food security. People in the global South will lose out on fish stocks - while corporates will gain in profit.

King Abdullah of Jordan asks the United Nations - how long is the world going to stand back and allow the state of Israel to empty Palestine of its people - while world "leaders" talk about "never again"?

Microsoft's Azure cloud platform is used by the Israeli military to store millions of phone calls by Palestinians. Do we need to ask - is "tracking everyone, all the time" part of every gov't plan - worldwide?

…we can assume we've been lied to ever since. Here we see what looks like a Problem-Reaction-Solution strategy playing out -with a staged violent encounter on the streets of Brussels.

Any Grown Up Intelligent Society would look at man's behaviour with total puzzlement. Humanity is littering the ocean with plastic with gay abandon - and doing exactly the same with orbital space. Help!

A Turkish student in the US has been abducted - it's alleged - because she asked her college to admit there is a genocide in Palestine. Other students also risk being deported - by Trump - for criticising Israel.

Bolton is about to have its eighth McDonald's! Two new pedestrian crossings and 30 new parking spaces are on the way. Do we assume that the local council has a good relationship with the corporation?

Is planned expansion by city councils in Devon, a massive land grab - or are councils simply following orders from central gov't? Do we need to ask - who gets to decide - who'll benefit - and who'll lose out?

The "choice" between political parties - and the equally false "choice" between the political right and left spectrum - will take us to only one place - the same place we've always been. Time for a rethink?

The NHS is in crisis - we see it. But the basic question is why? Some say it's a lack of money. Possibly, yes. But the real basic problem - is lack of other things - management, imagination and healthy culture.

One thing is for sure - most people are uncomfortable with change - and this is change! It sure makes drivers think - and they should think all the time for obvious reasons. 9/10 for aesthetics.

The thing is - someone has to do it. And if you do it - you can expect to do it very nicely - and pretty quickly. The problem today is that we all live in a rat race - fighting for money in the best way we know how.
