Suez Canal

The Suez Canal was reportedly constructed by the Suez Canal company and completed in 1869. Funding was said to be through the Rothschilds and shares were sold to British and French shareholders who are said to have owned the company until the as called Suez crisis.

By 1955 two thirds of Europe’s oil passed through the canal, though Persian oil was transported through a pipeline.; said to be 800,000 barrels a day. The Suez crisis also known as the Sinai war followed the nationalisation of the canal by Egypt. Israel invaded Egypt followed by the u.k. and France and reportedly the u.k. took de facto control of the canal, its finances and operations.

The nationalisation of the Suez Canal is said to have surprised the British and its commonwealth. A letter from the foreign office was published saying, ‘If we sit back while Nasser gradually acquires control of the oil bearing countries our gold reserves will dry up. If our gold reserves disappear the sterling area disintegrates.

Uyghurs in China

The Uighurs or Uyghurs are said to be an ancient Turkish tribe who according to the Cyclopaedia of India and south Asia formerly occupied Xinjian; now said to be occupied by a mixed population of Turk, Mongolian and Kalmuck. The term is said to have originally described Tiele tribes in northern China and Mongolia. As Islam became prominent it became synonymous with the uyghur khaginate.

Uyghurs are being detained in special camps, reportedly as a response to terrorist attacks as part of an independence movement. They are said to have inhabited areas previously controlled by Turks and others. May have been Turkish administrators. Research shows Uyghurs may have intermarried. Possibility is they feel estranged from both Chinese and Turkish culture.

Since 2015 it is estimated that over a million Uyghurs have been detained in internment camps. According to official figures 12.8 million Uyghurs currently live in China.

Israeli Election

A new national coalition government could conceivably be the result of a Blue and White/Likud innitiative. Benjamin Netanyahu may have been criticised for western or u.n. influences, probably not helpful with regard to peace talks with Samarians, while the Blue and White party are thought to have Arab influences, probably not helpful with regard to the Gaza blockade.

The AstraZeneca dilemma

The AstraZeneca dilemma may be connected to the fact that new eu tariffs are being objected to; otherwise, shortages could mean the complete dose is not available at the recomended time for a said to be 95% efficiency.

A united Ireland?

Reportedly a referendum seemingly to explore the possibilities for a united Ireland is occurring in northern Ireland this weekend. Brexit and the ecumenical movement could mean votes for nationalism or unionism.

New Labour and criticism

There have been suspicions that as called new labour was a tory idea. Main reason being a total turn away from social and community objectives to war, the economy and imperialism. According to Tony Blair, rather than confront media criticism with regard to governmental affairs he preferred to deal with the issue and was seemingly involved in infiltrating, overseeing and prohibiting independent sources, leading to today’s mainstream media often being seen as coersive, misleading and partisan.

Person centred care

A nurse’s report concerning patient care in an Irish hospital described a lack of collaberation with nursing staff leading to a one way communication system dictated by senior management and hospital consultants. Nurses have the most physical contact with the patient but there is seemingly little scope for their view, or for patients’ wishes to be respected with regard to medication, care plans and after care etc. All of which may be planned remotely and not necessarily within eu guidelines.

Covid 19

According to a report, experts haven’t been able to trace covid 19 to any animal in China, and China do not believe they are responsible for the pandemic. Some rumours are that it may have started in a laboratory. Propogating viruses continues to be illegal.

Is one dose AstraZeneca a good buy?

A constant media diet of AstraZeneca could mean some have been hoping to make a lot of money. Media reports of the promised required dose being unavailable has not seemingly put everyone off the brand which has been followed by the Johnson vaccine, reportedly a 65% effective one dose vaccine. May be similar to first dose only AstraZeneca.
