As soon as social media posts were blamed for instigating alleged “far-right riots” in the UK, I immediately became suspicious. Leaving aside the many questions I have about the Southport murders that reportedly led to the unrest, the fact that the entire UK establishment and its legacy media was scrupulously “on message” compelled me to look into what happened and what we were being told about it.
Over the next two months I looked at the evidence and contrasted that with the official narrative. This culminated in me practically writing another book I hadn’t expected to write. A number of articles resulted, and this post brings that work together in one place for those of you who might be interested in seeing it as a whole.
I looked at the reasons why the unrest happened. The resultant article can be found on my website titled “The Real Reason for the Civil Unrest In The UK.” As my regular readers will know, I don’t claim to be right but I am personally satisfied that the explanations given for the unrest by “official sources” are a steaming pile of doggy doo-doo.
The central piece is the deep-dive published on Unlimited Hangout titled “Manufacturing the Far-Right: Who Is shaking The Jar?”
I examined how the modern far-right myth was manufactured. I also looked at the history and agent provocateur activities of the so-called charity Hope not hate (HNH). I considered where it sits within the global intelligence and propaganda operation it represents and the network’s broader objectives.
As I waded through HNH sludge, I was struck by its enthusiasm to promote—alongside the far-right threat it has fabricated—the claimed “Great Replacement conspiracy theory.” This led me to have a look at the ideas behind said theory, which I wrote about in the article “Sutherland, Kalergi, Camus, Replacism and Technocracy.”
This was very kindly republished by the OffGuardian where I received a right bashing from some OG readers who were most vexed by my article. Reading the comment section over at OffGuardian may be of interest, if you have the time and quite fancy seeing me taken down a peg or two.
I found one propagandist term that cropped up during the state’s “disinformation” onslaught particularly ridiculous: the suggested notion of the “armchair rioter.” This spawned four articles here on Substack
In “The Armchair Rioters - Part 1” I analysed the claim that purported “far-right influencers” had caused riots by spreading unverified rumours, predominantly on Musk’s ‘X’ platform. Those claims also turned out to be total rubbish in my opinion.
In Part 2 I looked at some of the subsequent convictions for various “communications offences” and realised these too were part of a broader “disinformation” front. The objective seemed to me to be to convince people to be fearful of what they say on social media while, simultaneously, the state has virtually no power to stop anyone saying whatever they like—providing it doesn’t constitute what we used to call “incitement.”
Part 3 was concerned with the legislative moves the state has made to try and rectify its relative powerlessness. I looked at the Online Safety Act (OSA) and discussed the form of information control and dictatorship it is designed to establish.
And, in the concluding Part 4, I looked at the frankly bizarre “test cases” the state has tentatively embarked upon to try to see if it can both use the OSA to censor whoever it wants while claiming it is “democratic.” Evidently it can’t. Well, not legitimately anyway.
I hope you will take the time to read these articles and essays if you haven’t already. This self-promotional post has been a bit weird to write—I hope you don’t mind—but I just wanted to provide a reference to, what is effectively, a single body of work.
Right, I’m cream-crackered and off out with the dog. He doesn’t want to go and I can tell he’s going to be hard work but he’ll cheer up when he sees a squirrel.

FWIW it was a good series Iain, the off-g comment section is a very mixed bag, I think you held your own well in the comments, the 'great replacement' deepdive was probably too academic for most of them, it went right over the heads of the majority.
David Icke amplified (in UK headlines) your main post at Unlimited today too.
I was watching Derrick Brozes 'greater reset' today focusing on solutions, I missed the bit on mesh radio systems I tuned in for (a kind of enctypted internet over radio thing) but I caught Rosie O'Leary talking about DarkFi, which was very interesting, a kind of open source anonymous encrypted alternative internet infrastructure with truely anon alternative monitary system, Crypto-anarchy/agorist type thing. Along with the mesh systems there seems a high tech barrier to adoption, but it made me realise no matter what govs do to control people, there will always be some bright sparks out there working on alternatives they can't possibly control. https://dark.fi/manifesto.html
