Dealing with trolls, bots and sock puppets

February 25, 2021 17:50 - 26 minutes - 21.4 MB

In the last episode I mentioned that some propaganda of the unionists was starting to appear in the mainstream media. Notably, the BBC. Since then matters have escalated somewhat and this could be due to the operation of Gove’s Union Unit. This Union Unit has reportedly lost a couple of leaders in the last few...

Any old news is good news to the propagandists

February 03, 2021 22:17 - 17 minutes - 14.3 MB

Confuse and Confound. When it comes to politics, it’s easy to get lost in a sea of facts, figures, and spin. But you don’t have to take everything politicians tell you at face value, in fact it’s probably better if you don’t. How do you know whether or not a piece of information is really...

The Purge, spat my Coffey and SNP vs Dark Forces

January 25, 2021 21:21 - 17 minutes - 14.3 MB

The Stanley Johnson Conspiracy Theory Jessica Simor QC posted a tweet which made me both curious and uncomfortable as I felt I was in danger of falling down a conspiracy theory rabbit hole… what do YOU think? Rarely am I flabbergasted nowadays but this…this…has to be listened to to be believed. If this is the...

Update from Compass Food Group In the last episode I mention that we sent an email to Compass Food Group, the email is shown here. We have received a response which seems to be extremely positive. Email sent to Compass Food Group I refer to this story in the Yorkshire evening Post, dated 12th January:... The post EXCLUSIVE: Free School Meals update appeared first on Rewind For More Info.

Free School Meals at the cost of dignity

January 13, 2021 14:54 - 16 minutes - 13.8 MB

Food parcel quality In this episode I explore the most recent free school meals scandal. I take a look at the current evidence of shockingly poor quality and quantities of food provisioned by Chartwell (Compass Food Group)  and  compare it to Labour led council provisions. This was initially spotlighted by Roadside Mum on Twitter. #FreeSchoolMeals... The post Free School Meals at the cost of dignity appeared first on Rewind For More Info.

Laptops Bees and WiFi

Apologies for my tone. I’m a little emotional in this episode, I do apologise for any language that slips though. Even though we did not have a NO DEAL, we have such a thin deal we may as well have had a no deal. Add the pandemic to the mix and well, things aren’t great....

Factionalism

November 24, 2020 21:44 - 7 minutes - 5.93 MB

THE LABOUR PARTY I can’t quite believe what has happened to the Labour Party recently. I’m just a guy, I’m not a political expert, all I want is to be a member of a party that represents my view on life and the way I live it. I thought I had that with the Labour...

Broken by ideology

April 12, 2020 18:26 - 10 minutes - 8.93 MB

Where do I start? Since my last episode in February, there have been many developments. The main one being the emergence of Coronavirus as a pandemic. Corona Virus has exposed the ineptitude of the Government, revealing that bumbling Boris is not just a term of endearment, but a guideline to which the Conservative Government operate....

Brexit – Are we in safe hands?

February 08, 2020 16:53 - 13 minutes - 10.6 MB

Brexit is underway, and the sunny uplands are beckoning! Personally I can’t wait, but hang on, there’s an Ipsos Mori poll here that says people don’t think those sunny uplands exist. That can’t be true, can it? I look into it and explore more. Bizarrely, the poll has results that show the electorate think Brexit...

Even the media is being manipulated!

February 04, 2020 20:36 - 8 minutes - 6.68 MB

I’m sure you’ve read in the press by now that the Government has recently being picking and choosing which journalists to see and which ones to leave on the wrong side of the rug. In the podcast, I look at recent events and postulate as to why this is happening now.  Some items I briefly... The post Even the media is being manipulated! appeared first on Rewind For More Info.

Brexit – Whose rules are these anyway?

February 02, 2020 16:23 - 7 minutes - 6.15 MB

As Brexit continues to rumble on with no end in sight, the newspapers continue to report each little screech as an essential event. Today’s screech is the accusation that Dominic Raab is sabre-rattling. Which, in effect, he does seem to be doing. I suppose he’s riding the crest of the wave produced by the hugely...

Brexit – Why can’t we just be friends?

February 01, 2020 19:35 - 14 minutes - 11.8 MB

Months ago I was thinking about launching a podcast and subsequently dabbled with the infrastructure needed but today was the trigger needed for the very first episode.  Brexit, like it or loathe it, it’s here to stay and it will change things. Whether that’s for good or bad remains to be seen but in this... The post Brexit – Why can’t we just be friends? appeared first on Rewind For More Info.
