Agreed Et - the net is closing as they fish out the big fish (Tucker et al), but as you know, they won't stop. My own defence is to withdraw. We are leaving for Simons Town next year (things to do in between) and her-indoors is very happy!
It could be frying pan to fire but who cares, at 78, I am past caring. If I can be in the global south I think I have a better chance of quiet twilight years - if not - I shall go to sea and find my Maker there!
It's OK Et - my wife is South African and we lived in Simons Town for 10 years 1999-2009. We had load shedding then but it's no problem - actually it's far better to be off-grid anyway. We have plenty of sun, solar, wind (plenty of that too) and local gas. I am spending £250/mth for electricity (inc. heating) in my tiny 2-bed lock-up-and-go cottage.
We only came back to UK to get my wife a British passport (SA is hopeless) and to sort my pensions/finance/family. We had planned to return to SA in 2015 (it took 5 years of unbelievable bureaucracy & £8k.) But I had started writing my book in 2013 after the Cyprus bank robbery when a client there sent me a copy of his bank statement (which I wrote about in the Introduction). He had euro 850k in his business account of March 31 2013 but only 100k on April 1st and some share certificates!
Thank you for your good wishes Et. I shall have to write an additional 'Letter from South Africa', probably bi-weekly and alternate with remote observations of the British Titanic as she settles down to Davy Jones' Locker!
Thank you Et for your kind words. Yes, we have been the blessed generation having been born in the very best moment in history. The decline started after WW2 and the elites discovered that their excess of luxury was beginning to end as EROEI began to take effect: https://austrianpeter.substack.com/p/the-financial-jigsaw-part-2-the-end?s=w
To keep the system from an early collapse they switched to fiat currency in 1971 and to maintain the supremacy of the US dollar. This worked, with a few bumps, until 2008 when QE was the only alternative. https://wtfhappenedin1971.com/
Another hidden event occurred on September 15, 2019 involving the 'Repo' market which introduced the 'Going Direct' temporary solution by BlackRock's Larry Fink: https://austrianpeter.substack.com/p/a-perfect-storm-the-money-crisis?s=w BUT, to avoid hyperinflation they had to close down the global economies hence the launch of the Covid scamdemic, and the NWO was launched in earnest in 2020 after 50+ years of planning.
Their only option now, to preserve their fantasy 'wealth', is to introduce CBDCs before the next crisis. BUT they have to have total compliance which the Chinese have managed because their culture is one of 'community' driven by rice farming; whereas as our wheat farming system requires 'individualism' and freedom. This 4-minute video will explain CBDCs in action (4 years ago). China is way ahead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXyzpMDtpSE
The options going forward for the elite are limited. They are desperate, as noted at Davos this year, and the final solution is of course war, as always. My Chinese contacts are planning for conflict in 2025/6 and their 'ghost cities' are all part of their wartime planning. Their new roads can be used as airstrips and their Covid 'lockdown' was planning and training for a nuclear attack by the USA/UK.
I am sure there will many pockets of hold-outs Et, and SA is so like Texas (which I love). We too are armed and ready to fight. We are all pioneers now and I find it rather exciting!
Be my guest Tex. I was in Bandera for a contract in St Antonio in 1997 and stayed there with a friend. I had a wild time - lots of stories and we drove down to Mexico too, over the Rio Grande. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@29.3681277,-99.0655228,9z
i also stayed at a Reservation and bought one of their CDs - stunning people!
You can read all about Cyprus here, at the Introduction - start at Page 23: "The Cyprus event is a wake-up-call to each and every one of us. It will affect you in unpredictable ways in the coming months and years, so now is the time to understand what is happening and what you can do now to protect yourself and your family."
Yes found it now. If there are lots of comments have you noticed, when you click on the email, it doesn't show you what was said before when clicking 'return to thread'? It works on low numbers but not with many, like here. makes it difficult to relate to what I previously wrote.

I had to research this and finished my book in 2020 when lockdown has kept us in UK. I hope we can travel next year, but if not, I shall bloody well sail there! https://www.researchgate.net/publication/358117070_THE_FINANCIAL_JIGSAW_-_PART_1_-_4th_Edition_2020

The Brits have been behind most of the disturbances because they are driven by The City of London: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrObZ_HZZUc
Here's an example from recent history: https://thenakedhedgie.com/2022/10/05/britains-secret-diplomacy-and-the-european-wars/
This why I have tracked the Brits operations for 60+ years after I left the War Office (now MoD) in the 60s. I hope all this nausea helps!
