Thanks for bringing this back to the top of mind.

I first became aware of this from a book and documentary, "Harvest of Sorrow" from sometime in the 80s I think. I have been mystified since, that the NYTimes has and retains ANY cultural credibility.

Don’t know if you heard but there was movie made about Mr Jones recently. I was interested in watching it but was outvoted by the family. Being recent though can’t really expect it to be accurate or that good tbh though.

If I remember correctly it’s called ‘Mr Jones’.

Here’s the Wikipedia link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr_Jones_(2019_film)

And here’s the IMDb: https://m.imdb.com/title/tt6828390/

I like your new(?) profile pic. I used it in a piece I published earlier today.

Thanks! It's the same one, but it really does encapsulate the junior/senior role between the royal family and the central bank owners, doesn't it? Charles looks like a petulant child getting a stern talking to.

That's exactly what it looks like. But you don't pull on Superman's cape and you don't poke your finger in the Prince of Wales' chest.

The Old Grey 'merchant of death' Lady NY Times also praised Hitler. The mainstream media is and always has been a blood enemy of the people.
