Starmer’s Britcard isn’t just another Digital ID

A Digital Takeover of the real world is already underway

It doesn’t matter who you are; whether you have an email account, a smart phone or even a computer sat on your desktop at home. If you are a British Citizen and the UK is your legal home, you already have a digital identity somewhere.

What is more, you probably already have more than just one.

Just like the constant push towards CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) that the narrative tells us will be required to make money digital, the most alarming part of the whole story about this sudden ‘need’ for everyone to have ‘Digital ID’, so that the government can tackle illegal immigration, is that there are still many of us who also believe we need a proper digital currency.

In fact, we not only have a digital currency already. But the digital currency we already have is linked up and able to pass through any digital terminal and even our phones when we have a banking app – at any moment in time!

Recent figures from Ofcom suggest that only 2.8 Million People in the UK – or about 5% of the Population aren’t connected to the digital world directly in some way.

Yet even this 5% of the population will have details and information stored about them with organisations like the NHS, with their Bank, and with any company or supplier. Perhaps like an Electricity, Gas or Water supplier, who will certainly hold details about them in digital form of some kind.

It is ironic that as we stare into the abyss that is a fully digitised world, those who aren’t connected, are still referred to as being disadvantaged by their lack of digital connection. When there is a compelling argument to suggest that in terms of what we are facing today, the 5% may already be having the last laugh.

Digital ID is already being used to our disadvantage

The 95% of us who are digitally connected today, are already being played by a system crossing government and big business alike.

A system that uses every bit of information that can be harvested from every one of our online activities to build a picture of what we do, what we like and basically how we run our lives.

If we go to a supermarket or shop online, we will almost certainly now have a customer card. And we are ‘rewarded’ with points, vouchers, offers and perhaps even cash back, in return for having registered with the company and then using our card, codes or app on our phone, each time that we shop.

The data about what we search online, no matter where it is, the services that we use and what protections like VPN we have put in place, all finds its way into the great online smorgasbord, through the monitoring of our social media accounts, email traffic and whatever we go onto a search engine or AI system to research.

It quickly then finds its way back to our timelines as a conclusive response, through information about products, holidays, cars or services that we have been thinking about, or even organisations we have applied for jobs with.

We and our Digital ID are already being used, exploited and tracked online

Nobody likes to admit that they are being used and manipulated, because of a decision that they haven’t really thought through or knowingly made.

But the reality we, as the 95% already face, is that as a consumer and potential source of income – if any up to date data about what we are thinking about now hasn’t automatically been sold as we search or instruct AI – our digital footprint and therefore our digital ID is already all over the internet and accessible by any government agency or company that has the ability to access it, in any form that they want.

This information – that we’ve given away for nothing more in return than access to a platform where we can chat to friends, post whatever content we produce or get what might be the equivalent of 1% of every Pound that we spend with Retailers who are already charging us way too much, is worth far more than we will ever get back.

The data that we are continually giving away with every online key stroke allows anyone who can use this data and the media channels that they have open to us, to persuade us to buy their products, eat their foods, and increasingly change our behaviour and way of living so that it suits whatever they want.

Although every government organisation and those businesses and retailers we shop with or buy products or services from can identify who we are and provide anyone with a legitimate reason for asking what we like using, when we use it and how long we like to use it for, the data that we are giving away – even as we read and scroll through this Essay – will allow someone or some organisation to monitor us along with specific aspects of our behaviour or obtain a giveaway snapshot of the habits that we have.

However, the recording of our data and the ability to identify who we are at any data monitoring point or rather digital device we use to go online, hasn’t yet become a genuinely overt tool of behaviour control that can or will be used to force us to do or more importantly not do things, that whoever controls and influences these systems will want.

Unfortunately, if Starmer and his government are successful, that will change.

The Turning Point

Regrettably, the digitisation of life has already extended to the point where it has become unhealthy and counterproductive for all of us.

Today, most of us already use the information that comes to us through the digital devices that we think we own as our go-to point of external reference.

We are all giving a ridiculous level of credibility to whatever we see, read, hear or listen to through these mediums, simply because the information and its sources are online.

We don’t see the danger of any of this. Because for most of us, we have interpreted the experience as being good, or better than the past alternative.

We have fast connectivity; we can video chat with friends and family on the other side of the world; we can get food and shopping delivered in minutes with just a few clicks; we can travel without buying a ticket and just swiping our debit or credit card and we can even get massive amounts of credit, set up years-long contract payments for goods and services, or even order a brand new car that we wont see until its sat outside of our house, online.

The arrival of the latest forms of AI that we knowingly interact with – rather than the forms of AI that use algorithms or the codes that have already been monitoring and being used to judge us like we aren’t human for years before – have just made the whole situation and experience we face, much worse.

Not least of all because when we hear the stories of the AI Takeover and there soon being no need for humans to do any jobs, we all fall into the trap of assuming that those who own, manage and run all this technology that gives them wealth, influence and control, will then use it to provide a utopian dream for everyone else where none of us lift a finger and we have a lifestyle that correlates with a level of easy that would once have only featured in our wildest dreams.

Yes, you read that correctly.

The Truth that we are all avoiding

The tech that we have welcomed into our lives and actually paid the companies that own, run and programme it, to have access to and to be able to use and seemingly benefit from it, are not using it to help us, but to help themselves.

The establishment and the elites are using the tech that we are willingly embracing and failing to question the need for and purpose of to remove the functional need and requirement for potentially many millions of us to even exist.

Regrettably, the point draws ever nearer, where everyday people like you and I will wake up to the reality that it’s not us that need all of this digital technology to have very good, meaningful and freedom-driven lives.

The Technical Revolution has instead only been designed and pushed upon us to meet the needs of the establishment, the tech moguls and whoever has the means to control all these systems. The few, who can only get all they want in terms of money, power and control if we keep believing that we cannot live without the world that they have designed.

Indeed, it has become vital, if not essential for the few that the digital tools and infrastructure surrounding us and touching our lives in every way are now used to remove the ability of the mass population to make good on any of the political or behavioural threats that different people across society are now beginning to make.

Why this is happening now

Digital ID of the kind that we are now discussing has always been an elite-driven plan.

It’s why former Labour Prime Minister Tony Blair was always so keen on it, amongst so many other policies presented to us as being ‘progressive’ and ‘liberalising’ that have actually made life for everyone outside of politics and aligned with the establishment considerably worse.

The financial and economic systems that we have (Neoliberalism, FIAT money etc.) were also planned and then implemented with the aim that the money would enable the ‘legitimate’ take over of the ownership of everything that society needs to survive and be independent.

However, such a bogus money and the economic system that sits around it could only be created by using a system and approach that itself would eventually collapse whilst creating generations of victims – because it is basically a big con.

From the start, the architects of this legalised crime knew that there would need to be a system of tight and rigid societal control in place to stop the whole thing from unravelling, as soon as the money system was exposed for the lie that it is. Because normal people would not be happy to wake up to the reality that they have been misled and robbed in just about every conceivable material sense – in some cases, from the moment of their birth.

The inevitable collapse of the financial and economic system is happening right now.

The system is over. It just hasn’t ended yet. And that’s why there is desperation in government to implement controls over every freedom we have – before it is too late – for them to do so.

The Grand Plan – Reset or New World Order (The next one after the last…)

This specific kind of Digital ID has featured in the goals and agendas of ‘world body’ or pre-emptive ‘world government’ organisations such as the WEF and United Nations for a considerable period of time with it sitting prominently within what is called Agenda 2030.*

Whilst it cannot be understated just how slavish Keir Stamer’s ‘leadership’ has been towards the delivery of whatever the WEF and Davos set have wanted from him since Labour came to power in July 2024, it is just as correct to point out that the Tories before them had done just as much, if not more.

There has been no government in the UK since the beginning of the 1970’s that hasn’t been bending or helping to bend everything towards agendas that do not and were never intended to serve the best interests of the British People.

The difficulty for the current Prime Minister is that his behaviour has become so incongruent with even the appearance of what government activity is expected to be. And so Starmer has come under increasing pressure not only from the media, but also from his own party, who realise that he is on the verge of making Labour unelectable, with the conclusion that he needs to be brought down.

We will probably never know who exactly is behind it. But what appears to have been the corruption necessary to get such a poor prime minister elected – who appears willing to do whatever he is being told to – has recently began dripping into the limelight over what seems to be different cover-ups including a sizable question of expenses.

The PM basically needed a life line or world-changing level dead cat distraction to grab everyone’s attention, that would at least temporarily hide the whole story from view.

In real terms, the whole Digital ID thing was on its way anyway. But it has probably been pushed out quickly in the hope that Starmer’s premiership will somehow remain intact.

In so far as the debate about Digital ID and Digital Life Keys is concerned however, it is far from over. And there is a chance that pushing yet another agenda into the bearpit of public opinion before everything was in place to carry it over the line, may indeed very quickly blow up in the governments face.

*Please do research this subject further and in particular the history of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, which have been evolving and regularly redesignated on record since at least 1992. The Goals themselves appear sensible and considerate of many of the problems that the world not only faces but really needs to address. The problem comes with the interpretations and application of the policies and solutions which these democratically unaccountable organisations are designing and pushing upon us through receptive governments and politicians like Starmer – to ensure that they are met.

The relationship with Immigration and what it’s really about

Even though we may not even be talking about it with each other, many of us can already see and are experiencing a massive disconnect between what the government and our politicians are saying and doing – or rather telling us is going on, and what we genuinely believe or trust to be the case.

Even if it is the case that we feel conflicted by the suggestion that we alone may be seeing the real picture differently to everyone else.

Immigration, illegal immigration or what is more widely identified as the immigration across the English Channel from France by boat, has become a massively nebulous topic that most people are terrified of mentioning, even though they are living in growing fear of what it will mean.

Normal, everyday, sensible, educated or otherwise intelligent British people fear the risk of being branded as racist or being cancelled in some way that could result in the loss of their income or job, or even worse. Even though very few of us have any problem with the idea of giving a helping hand to anyone who has a genuine need to move far away from their real home.

Many of us feel this way.

Not because there is anything wrong with not wanting to lose our culture. Not wanting to experience collapsing public services. Not wanting to live in fear of violence on public transport or the streets. Not wanting to see what are actually economic migrants rather than refugees with a genuine need get help before the growing number of British People who are going without or maybe even facing life on the streets. Certainly not because there is anything wrong with not wanting to have to give up even more of the money we earn when prices are already shooting up, just to pay for someone to do nothing whilst inviting all of their extended family along.

We feel this way because the approach that the government and the establishment is taking towards immigration and the insertion of cultures and behaviours into our communities and everyday life is completely at odds with our values and way of life.

The actions being taken simply does not make any logical sense.

Or at least, it wouldn’t if we had people running everything who are putting the needs of the UK and our own People first.

The way that government is effectively doing nothing to stop thousands of people entering the UK each and every week, who will never help or benefit the UK in any productive way, doesn’t make sense. Because it cannot and will not benefit the UK or our communities, as we have known them. And it never will make sense or correlate with anything that we can conceive as being positive for any of us, because that was never the plan.

The problem we really have is that we have people running the Country who are not fit to lead, and are doing whatever they are told to do that will keep them in power. No matter what the cost will be to the Country and the communities that they were elected to represent, and certainly not to the people who put them there.

Over a period of decades, the wrong politicians have changed everything that was arguably once good about the UK or Great Britian. So that what we have, what we do, and what our future holds can be dictated and directed by people that we don’t, or won’t ever elect.

Faceless or rudderless people who have been selected for the very reason that they will do exactly whatever they are told, and will not blink at saying anything, doing anything and imposing rules, regulations and laws that will change everything as we know it – no matter the ultimate human cost.

Immigration: Just one weapon being used to save useless politicians and destroy everything good about Britain that we know

Immigration has become a weapon used against the UK on two fronts.

Immigration as a weapon No. 1

The first as a way of keeping the dubious financial and economic system that we have in the UK (and across the world) going.

A system that has been a complete con and way to legalise corporate and elite level theft from the masses. Simply because they have manipulated money and the way it is created so that life is no longer a luxury that the average wage earner or anyone earning less can genuinely afford.

Immigrants need massive amounts of cash spent on them being ‘resettled’ – which is the ideal focus for public spending for the establishment, through the building of houses, which sets off a chain reaction of financial transactions.

Money changes hands between landowners, housebuilders, banks, builders, building suppliers, all their employees and the list goes on – and every pound that get’s created by private banks at the outset is counted over and over again to demonstrate ‘growth’, so that the real size of the public debt our useless politicians have accumulated can be cleverly hidden with an accounting trick that is hidden away by what we know as GDP.

This process is in itself beginning to implode and contributing towards the financial collapse. Because the UKs ability to be genuinely productive (Through genuine production, manufacturing and industry) has already been stripped to the bone by the same system.

UK productivity has been taken from British businesses and our communities and pushed overseas.

Meanwhile, so little genuine productivity exists in the UK (which is the engine of real growth rather than a bogus version of it) that the government can no longer find the excuses or justification to borrow enough money (or what we know as bond sales to the markets) to generate enough money to keep the size of the problem hidden.

A problem that not only this Labour government, but successive governments back until before the time of Thatcher have until now all played a very active role in hiding – even when many of the politicians voting everything through were not aware of what they were being commanded to push through.

Immigration as a weapon No. 2

The second and most serious weapon being used against the UK, is the destruction of our identity and culture – using Immigration like a trojan horse so the ‘change’ seems ‘normal’ – because its perceived to be coming from ‘within’.

When people work together and are able to rely on the people around them who are in their real, offline lives, they have the ability to work together and collaborate to do and act in ways that make the world around us work. Not just well. But better than anything like what we today consider to be normal.

However, in the reality we currently have, the narratives that we accept as normal are all about division and making us focus on the differences between all of us. So that we aren’t paying attention to the real forces and actions that have been making this whole shitshow work.

DEI, crushing freedom of speech, political correctness and equality that was always about positive prejudice and switching bias from one form to another have been the most effective tools to create this disharmony and feeling of isolation that so many of us have over a long period of time.

But as history has all too often shown, British people and our communities have always been very good at getting their shit together in a time of crisis. So that we can work collaboratively together, to achieve and secure whatever we collectively need.

This ability to face down trauma and crisis at community or national level will simply not be available to us, if there is no recognisable way for community coherence to actually exist.

This is perhaps the most troubling aspect of the treacherous influx of immigrants who have no love for the UK or any desire to respect or fit in with what our Nation is or ever has been, but are – as so many already suspect – part of a fully sanctioned and deliberate invasion, that is being aided and abetted by an establishment that sees the world, its future and the role of the masses within it, in a very different and regrettably troubling way.

The irony is that many of the people coming here are only ready and willing to do so, because of the impact and consequences that this dreadful criminal system has already had upon their Countries, their communities and all of them.

How many illegal Immigrants are there that the Government hasn’t already digitally recorded and identified?

To get some perspective on the reality of illegal immigration versus the immigration that the government knows about – and has therefore registered and identified the people concerned, in the year up to March 2025, there were 44,125 ‘irregular’ arrivals in the UK, of which 86% of these (44,125 x .86 = 37,948) arrived by boat.

This means the number of illegal immigrants that arrived during that year – of which many the government will also know about was (44,125 – 37,948) 6,177 at most or the equivalent of less than 0.0001% of the UK Population, if we work on the basis that there are 66 Million People here.

The real Agenda – a digital prison that the establishment will declare makes us safe and free

The principle of Digital ID, when fixed against the backdrop of what we already do with our data and the seeming ease with which we cand do almost anything online or with smart technology, without even having to think about it, makes all that Starmer and co are doing seem harmless enough.

And that’s the point really. Because there is nothing that the establishment and the government will do today in terms of significant policy change – particularly when it comes to freedom, control and what we are able to do now as opposed to what we soon will not be allowed to do – that they wont either hide and make seemingly irrelevant as part of another policy.

Everything a government of this kind does, where it’s real intentions are not made clear will be delivered in a series of different steps, over what might be a prolonged period of time. Where careful wording that sounds very harmless, will have given them the ability to make changes and introduce mechanisms or ways of working that would only have become necessary – perhaps for reasons of practicality, much later on and at a very different time, usually when we are expected to have forgotten what the original policy was supposedly for.

Look closely and you will see the game that is already afoot right now.

Industry ‘specialists’ and ‘experts’ are already making light of what this new form of Digital ID would mean. With the suggestions circulating, as I write, that the only time anyone would need to use an app or code that sits on our phones, will be when we start a new job.

But isn’t that what our National Insurance Numbers are already for?

Working with and understanding government, how government and the public sector works and how the system speaks and achieves its aims, is like learning an entirely new and very different language that few really get to grips with.

Just in the same way that we have a very dangerous habit of believing that because we all speak English, that US and UK culture are exactly the same.

Even experienced government officers and civil servants fall foul of the same system that they may have worked within for their entire career.

Names, meanings and interpretations of subjects and practices are continuously and deliberately renamed, and it is akin to having to understand the dark arts to be able to read anything and everything that comes from within this ridiculously powerful sector; to immediately see it for what it is in its complete context, and for the real aims and direction of travel to have a real hope of making sense.

The Global World Agenda, with Starmer falling over himself to open the door

Starmer’s step towards ‘mandatory Digital ID’ is nothing less than a welcome mat to the takeover of every part of our lives.

The successful adoption of this policy and its implementation will be the creation of the requirement that each and every one of us must have and be able to present a universal Digital key, Digi-key, or Digital Life Key in everything that we do.

Indeed, the system may ultimately appear to work and operate seamlessly – especially if humans are eventually forced to be ‘chipped’ or ‘read’ by monitors and even drones that don’t interact with us.

But without that code being present and read at every point of required electronic contract at which we do something new or different each day, when our ‘Digital ID’ will need to be approved by the data that is held centrally on the system about us – everything for us will come to a very rapid and spotlighted stop.

Plans for 15 minute cities to stop us travelling far, moves to ensure we eat only what we are expected to eat, pointers to live wherever and however we are supposed to, rules that require we thing do what we are supposed to, and not to do anything that upsets or offends anyone – can and will be enforced, monitored and linked directly to our Digital ID, through a Social Credit system.

Within the social credit system that will soon follow without change, anything less than the number of points or social credits that we need to be able to do anything, will stop us from doing anything that those in charge don’t want us to, unless they have given us enough points to confirm that they approve.

Britcard is the stuff of nightmares. But communist China has been enforcing social credit for years

You only need look at and research social credit systems in China to see just how far reaching, intrusive and restrictive the systems that the establishment will have the scope to force into every part of our lives – if this dystopian and tyrannical policy should go ahead.

We must all understand that with the digital tools we already have in our pockets as well as those that are coming online, the ability of the establishment to police every one of us will be ridiculously easy for them, not least of all because of AI and the fact that everything they will need to do to control our behaviour wont need people to enforce it, because it can all be done with a computer remotely.

Once the new system of rules and regulations that govern our behaviour is in place – in all probability in response to either World War III or the coming collapse that we will later come to, where there will no doubt be a need for us to trade freedoms and things we used to take for granted, so that we can be ‘helped’ and ‘protected’ by those who rule from above, there will be nothing that we need to exist and to survive independently in life, that we will be able to access legally, without giving our phone, ID Card or chip a swipe – and having it approved.

Starmer’s Britcard or Digital ID is a system that will remove the freedom of the masses to be, do, or think independently and outside of whatever those who are in charge decide should be the rules, just so that anyone who isn’t registered – or disapproves, cannot survive.

This is a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist and it’s not about solving an immigration problem at any level or of any kind.

Starmer and his Labour government are trying to open the door to a Digital Prison that will envelope us all, and that it will be almost impossible to step back from, once we have found ourselves within.

Life in the Digital Prison

If you are one of the many already self-policing what you say, when you say it and who you say it to, in order to avoid being accused of and then backlisted for doing or saying something that is wrong – when you actually know that there is nothing wrong or nothing bad intended through what you are doing in any way, you already have a clear idea of how a Key to a Digital controlled Life will make you and I do all the work for our future rulers.

If you think things are bad for us today, they will be much worse when we cannot get money, buy food, pay bills, get on a bus or train, apply for a job, get a qualification or anything that we all still take for granted as being openly available to us today.

Because when we haven’t followed their rules – which under a digital tyranny we will never be able to set – life as we know it is basically over and we will be well and truly stuffed.

The intent behind Digital ID in this ‘Britcard’ form is very sinister indeed. Because whoever has power over the system sets the rules.

Ideas like democracy and the freedom to choose will no longer exist. Because in this dystopian tyranny, somebody else – who you are unlikely to ever meet or know – will already have made all the choices that matter for you.

It won’t matter if those controlling this dystopian life are feeding us food or drink that will harm us; making us vulnerable to harmful situations; exploiting us for whatever purposes suit them; or even guiding us towards decisions about our end of life. Because once we are no longer useful and cannot financially justify our existence to their system, we are basically obstructing their view.

Starmer’s Digital ID is the welcome mat at the doorway of our very own digital prison.

Once we have crossed the threshold, we will quickly realise that all of the apparatus that has increasingly surrounded us as we have enthusiastically welcomed it into our lives, with all the devices that appear to have made everything so very easy, will give the establishment and all the companies and organisations who are on the inside of all this, the collective power to clamp down on everything we know very quickly. Whilst also sweeping aside any business or organisation that also chooses or is unable to comply.

Digital ID won’t stop Immigration, because it isn’t intended to

Whilst the reality we are awakening to may for many be the kind of story that we would associate with conspiracy theories and conspiracy theorists, this perspective is yet another carefully crafted narrative that those behind this pathway to dystopia have intended all of us to believe and buy into.

If the government wanted to stop the boats tomorrow, it could and would find a way to do so. In just the same way as the Johnson Tory government was able to lock down the whole of the UK overnight and stop everything, simply because they decided that continuing normal life through the Covid ‘Pandemic’ wasn’t right.

The real twist or perhaps what we might even call the elephant in this digital jail cell is that for Starmer’s Digital ID or ‘Britcard’ to be able to identify anyone who isn’t supposed to be here – which wouldn’t include any illegal immigrant who has been processed already and rehomed anyway, and to then have the kind of impact where it would stop anyone from being able to function illegally in the UK anyway, all of the processes and procedures that police everyone and everything to ensure that we are doing whatever we are supposed to and not doing anything that we aren’t, would need to already be fully in place – including a CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency – that we will come back to again shortly).

At the current time, the technology for all of this exists; is available and could be inserted without our consent on our phones and could be rolled out using cards or chips. But the monitoring or registration points needed to ‘catch’ illegal immigrants and ‘exclude’ them (and therefore any of us who refuse to participate) are far enough away from being in place that the change wouldn’t be immediately apparent following the policy being implemented.

(It would be wise to ignore the suggestion that the government will wait until the whole system can be managed under the existing ‘Gov.UK One Login’ system, and that the timeline for this to be operational is at least 10 years – as this timeline itself removes the excuse for the urgency and 2029 timeline of this policy plan)

The legislation must be in place so that the legal infrastructure and requirement placed upon businesses, organisations (and in all likelihood phone airtime and data providers) to participate and act as agents of the state would make the next stages all but inevitable – if the purpose is as genuine as Starmer suggests.

All this to stop a number of people probably a lot less than 6,177 over the year to March, from having jobs?

The excuses suggesting that ‘Britcard’ is what it is being sold as will then very quickly disappear.

The role and evolution of big business to become agents of the state

If you were paying close attention to the dynamics of the government response to the Covid Pandemic, you will have noticed that it in the majority of cases, it was the big, tech-orientated and global-leaning corporate businesses that did very well out of the crisis.

Because the requirements of lockdowns and social distancing somehow turbocharged their business models and helped big businesses to thrive.

To be clear, these are the businesses that government and the wider establishment talk to when they say they are getting advice on what’s good for business and how business should work.

Yet how a genuinely good business works and what many of these companies do to conduct their business is not anywhere near to being on the same page, in the same chapter, the same book. It is certainly not the same thing.

These big businesses already have the technology on their websites and on their tills that will be able to identify you from a Digital Life Key or Digital ID app on your phone.

It will then be simple to refuse to sell you products, supply you with services or even serve you a coffee, if your social credit score doesn’t match. Because you haven’t ‘behaved’ and are tagged by the establishment to somehow be in the wrong.

Few understand that big business doesn’t care about any of us, beyond the money or profit that they can make from us.

Everything big businesses are doing and have been doing is all part of the same agenda and plan, to make the business of supplying everyone’s day to day needs as simple and as streamlined as its possible for it to be, with genuine competition removed from the marketplace, meaning that cost and effort are removed and the absolute minimum of human contact and communication involved.

Small businesses that offer alternatives and what is the remaining competition to this plan, have been or are being steadily and systematically removed – either by being bought out, overburdened by legislation or simply made unviable. Because the big businesses seem to be able to do so much more, so more cheaply, all at a time when we seem to have less and less to spend, each and every day.

What is left of small business after the Digital Life Key or Britcard role out will be unlikely to be able to survive. Primarily because small business owners who have any sense will refuse to become agents of the state by administering the new Digital Policing System first hand.

Or many small businesses simply will not be able to upgrade the technology and manpower that they have that will be necessary to make it work, against a backdrop where for most, any unforeseen expenses added to the critically fragile margins that exist due to what this system has already done will be all it will take to close them down.

The interconnectivity between Digital ID and CBDCs

Opening this very big can of worms alongside the agendas that have steadily wrecked the UK from its foundations up, wouldn’t be complete without touching on the ‘need’ for digital ID to come into being and to sit very snugly or interconnectedly alongside the Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) that no normal person or business needs.

The very painful truth about the way that our world works around us today is that money and the value of money now sit at the centre of every part of life.

The value of money and what it means has become more important than people, communities, the environment and basically human life (for all others) itself.

Those within the establishment that control everything to do with money, know exactly how much power over each one of us money now has.

If money is not only digitised, but becomes digitally linked to the individual who possesses that money or to whom it has been credited, using the blockchain technology that a CBDC would be built with, thereby making today’s digital money redundant, then the easiest way to get that person to do whatever the establishment wants them to do, is to create and maintain self-contained system that requires continual digital green-light for every conceivable transaction, where anything outside full compliance means that the supply or even access to the money that the person has, can immediately be switched off.

If you’ve been unlucky enough to have experienced a banking app crashing or going out of service, or the switch machines in a coffee shop or supermarket being out of action and there being no other way of paying for what you want, you will get your head around the reality of just how easy – with the right technology – this will be for a dystopian government to achieve.

Again, we already have a fully digital system that works very well – and that existing digital money system will always continue to improve if the banks, businesses and merchant service providers can see ways to save money (and make more of it) by taking steps to invest as they do.

A CBDC that is linked through a Digital ID like Britcard is about having a money system that makes the money that we have unique and links that money directly to us and how we behave.

The existence of this system and its technology make behavioural control not only likely but guarantees that money can be switched off and kept from us, if we do anything that questioned the establishments rules for control.

We will only need a Britcard or Key to Digital Life if our lives are going to be controlled and run digitally

Starmer’s Digital ID or Britcard is about the implementation of a system that links the establishment to every device and monitoring point that we come into contact with. Creating digital turnstiles across each and every part of normal life and activity where whoever or whatever manages that data point can be used – remotely – to create walls or gates to whatever we want to buy or want to do.

In practice, the false freedom we then have will operate on the basis of ‘computer says no’ – whilst the system can also pinpoint, record and monitor where we are at any specific moment in time.

We know from the way that everything digital has been working up until now, that the system we already have operates very well and beneficially so for all the businesses that hold our data.

The system we have works very well, without there being any need for either the systems that businesses and banks use, or our identification data to be coordinated and available at the centre of government, so that those in charge can use it to do whatever they like.

Those who aren’t registered and compliant with the system that Starmer wants to introduce cannot and will not be identifiable without the infrastructure that monitors and polices this type of Digital ID system being universally rolled out and active in every part of societal life.

The numbers of people who could be identified if this system were already functional and we were all registered and being monitored today would be very low. Because the number of people in the U.K. who are here and shouldn’t be, who have not already been in contact with and therefore registered with the system in some way and therefore have access to some form of registered identification is very small. (Once again, let’s not forget that everyone coming into the UK across the English Channel by boat is registered so that they can then be moved and rehomed)

Nobody can work without a National Insurance Number now, and anyone who has applied for a job at anytime recently will know just how stringent the process is for applicants to make their background and residency status known to prospective employers.

The whole ‘you will need this to work’ story is a massive red herring, and one that has an horrific level of dishonesty and malevolence at its heart.

The benefit of Starmer’s Digital ID or Britcard system isn’t and will not be ours.

Starmer’s Britcard or Digital ID represents nothing less than the transfer of freedom at every human level, to the control of a remotely operated policing regimen that will manifests itself not through an officer of the state following us around, but through our very own electronic devices.

Once everyone is within the system – and that means the businesses that supply all our essential and basic needs too, we will have no choice but to comply with anything and everything that those in control of the system want – no matter how dark or inhuman it might turn out to be for us.

The opportunity for change may be the biggest challenge that we face

At time of writing this Essay, it has been reported that Starmer’s government intend this Digital ID system to implemented and be in place or use no later than 2029 – which of course fits with the plans of those who are really setting the Labour agenda.

Many will be alarmed by the reality that this sounds very much like its roll out is intended to beat the expected date of the next General Election- which if on time, will be the same year.

There is a lot of water set to flow by before then. Not least of all because it is very unlikely that Starmer himself will still be Prime Minister by that time.

There is also much to suggest there are many within the Labour Party itself who will act to stop this madness as soon as they have the chance.

However, the chances that we are currently within and will see the end of a normal parliamentary cycle are limited to say the least.

In no small part due to the economically precarious circumstances the UK is now experiencing, where it has become possible that we will experience an economic collapse at any time. One that could easily see a change in government following closely along behind.

Put that alongside the increasingly likely escalation of the war rhetoric being pushed by the governments (including ours) that are aligned with the WEF and its local management in the form of the EU, and it seems just as likely that an event such as the intrusion of an EU country or nato member airspace could see a Russian plane shot down at any time. And in the hands of governments across the western world who are struggling to keep this broken system running, such an event could see us deliberately plunged into war at any time.

As many commentators and academics are also suggesting, civil war of a kind that doesn’t resemble military sides lining up against each other also seems increasingly likely. Simply because of how disillusioned and how disenfranchised from decision making most people are now feeling, and the reality that this massive undemocratic and unwanted tyrannical step on the part of the government, is likely make that bad feeling consistently worse.

Everything Local is the only good thing for you and for me

Unfortunately, many of the things that seem to make life so easy for us today only work that way because they serve somebody else’s purpose to do so.

All the things in life that seem to make everything seem so easy for us play up to all the negative parts of being human. Whilst steadily removing all of the values, systems and ways of doing everything that might not be glamorous, cheap and easy, but which ultimately creat and maintain a way of life that for everyone would be inherently healthy and good.

The real cost of fast and always accessible money, easy living, touch of a button culture – which has been developing around us as quickly as technological advances have allowed – is that we do not behave, think or even act independently of what’s externally remote to us anymore.

This is the real human tragedy of our times. Because our own greed, selfishness and absence of human values have been progressively used against us to create a situation where self sustainability and looking after ourselves, independently and on our own terms, is on the verge of becoming impossible, if not impossibly hard to do.

Centralisation and all of the tools that align with it such as globalisation, ‘big business’, the EU, World bodies (with the aim of World Government), the patriarchy, top-down hierarchies are the antithesis and polar opposite of everything and every way of life and working that is actually good for people, for communities, for the environment and mankind.

We don’t need everything to be big. We don’t need everything to relate to money. We don’t need everything available to us at the touch of a button. We certainly don’t need someone we will never know or meet to be dictating everything about our lives including what we are allowed to think.

The only way that we can stop the rot and halt this march towards digital tyranny, is to re-embrace the offline world that we are quickly forgetting; return to real life and have and enjoy a life that is built and developed around everything and everyone that we are able to interact with, communicate with or visit face to face, each and every day.

Yes, we have good reason to embrace the forms of new technology that have and are becoming available.

But their use should only ever be to improve the lives of everyone. Not to control, ruin and increasingly to replace the lives and the ability to live of everyone who those few in control no longer see any value in and dictate that the world no longer wants.

A healthy life that offers the environment and systems that everyone needs, so that nobody is ever immediately disadvantaged by factors that are outside of their control can only be offered by a system of governance that is local, community based, and operates independently of regional, national and international bodies in every conceivable way.

The only exception to the need for local governance and properly accountable decision making is where cooperation and collaboration is necessary between communities to achieve mutually agreed targets or goals which are themselves non-political and where there is no transfer of executive decision making or local powers involved.

Decision making and democracy

The only way that we will ever be certain that democracy cannot be abused and replaced by agendas that we may be told are in our best interests, but which are nothing of the sort, is for every decision that will effect the lives of the people within a community, to be made either by those people, or by representatives that those same people have chosen and appointed to represent them, themselves.

Localism in its genuine sense, based upon the return of power to people who we all know and can communicate with and question daily, is the only way that we can be sure that the people will have influence over every meaningful public policy decision, and ensure that we always have genuine public representatives – and not self-aggrandising patsies in control who have sold out to do someone else’s bidding.

New Names, Old Games

Talking about and thinking about narratives isn’t just important today. It’s essential if you are to arm yourself with the truth and ultimately stand any chance of not being driven completely mad.

Unfortunately, the reasons that make critical thinking necessary, as we absorb and digest any of the information that constantly flows towards us, usually through the digital devices that we carry, are not just as simple as working out the credibility of sources, identifying the truth, or filtering out the rampant levels of views and opinion which have regrettably become the bigger part of the content of all news.

It is increasingly necessary to identify where names and the nomenclature or branding of ideas, approaches, systems and even recognisable activities have been deliberately changed with the intention to confuse. Usually to create the misleading idea, in our minds, that somebody is doing something or selling something to us that is completely new or specialised beyond our comprehension. Just so that they can gain advantage over us until such time as we have worked it all out.

Regrettably, the establishment – that’s government, the public sector and all the big businesses and money organisations that are actually running things – has reached the point where they change the names of everything, either to make more money or benefit themselves, or increasingly to give the impression they have stopped or moved away from doing anything that has been publicly outed as being wrong. But for whatever reason that’s important to them, they intend to keep on doing it anyway and believe they need to nothing more to cover it up than change the name.

The more things change, the more they stay the same

Whilst it would be foolish not to acknowledge the power for good that some forms of digital technology and artificial intelligence have – in the right hands and when being used for the right reasons, the way that so many of us have taken the coming technical or AI revolution as read, and seem to have just accepted that many will no longer have jobs as a result, does illustrate the danger that we have become to both ourselves and to our own future. All because we don’t ask questions and simply accept whatever we are being told to believe – usually because it’s come from the voice of someone remote who we don’t even know!

The rather inconvenient truth that all those creating new terminology for whatever they control, are trying to control or attempting to regain control of; is that there isn’t much going on that’s genuinely new, as we consider life in the aspect of 360 degrees around us.

It is just made to look and feel that way.

Indeed, most of us would quickly grasp this, if we were to refuse to just accept the sales pitch and ask what they are selling us, what it will do and how it works.

This approach is applicable to method as well as to machine.

We would all be wise to take time to consider everything that touches our lives in some way, in terms of the pathways that bring it to us, how it works, who benefits and why those interests have brought them to us as and when they have.

Some would say ‘Oh it’s obvious!’

But is it really? And has it ever been?

Magic only works on us, when we don’t understand whatever is happening

Sadly, many of us are all too happy to accept the premise that what we don’t know can’t hurt us.

We accept that names, memes, keywords, industry terms and abbreviations mean that whoever is using them knows things that we do not. Usually making those people more knowledgeable and therefore powerful than we are, with a somewhat strange accompanying surrender to the misplaced idea that we should simply shut up.

Exploding the very dangerous myth about people who are considered to be experts and specialists, often in ways that are taken to mean they have universal understanding of everything, when they most often have been doing just one job; have studied more about the subject than us, and have been given a qualification by someone else who is actually just like them, is now becoming essential.

Not just to stop ourselves from being played like complete fools. But because the idiocy and self-aggrandisement that blankets so many of the people in positions of power, influence, control and that we therefore revere, are hiding behind the façade of terms we don’t understand, just to benefit themselves whilst all the time creating a very unhappy and unhealthy world that for us, that is never really going to work in our favour for as long as people like this have influence and control.

Dishonesty is regrettably rampant throughout everything that the establishment now does. Not necessarily because everyone within the establishment is dishonest. But because the way that normal people like you and I are being exploited, manipulated and used, so that those doing these things can benefit in some way, is simply now accepted as being the ‘normal’ way things work and therefore as being the done thing, for everyone.

Using and abusing others at any level is not ok. And as we find ourselves transiting a tumultuous period of inevitable change, one of the things that we should all be striving for to experience in whatever new world awaits us on the other side, is that lying, manipulation and the abuse of any person for any reason by another, just so that the abuser can become advantaged in some way, should be outlawed and treated as the horrible crime that it really is.

People need jobs more than AI and the Tech Revolution

Everyone’s ability to work and be financially secure is vital to humanity, whereas accepting an unnecessary AI and Tech-Takeover that nobody genuinely needs will ultimately only benefit the few

The narrative now dictating to us that the Tech and AI Takeover is inevitable is tiring. Not least of all, because the whole idea that progress can and will only go one way is a myth.

Indeed, the myth that the AI and Tech Takeover is now inevitable serves only those who stand to benefit from everything being pushed this one, very specific and wholly unnecessary way.

Granted, many of us do feel that once technology has arrived and it is in our lives, there is no choice but to accept whatever the implications and outcomes of its arrival might be. Even when for increasing numbers of us it is beginning to become frighteningly clear that we and everything that we know may be about to be affected in some disastrous, life-changing way.

However, you may want to ask yourself, ‘Is this tech takeover, and what is going to change a voluntary choice that I am making?’

Did you consciously agree with the direction everything that touches your life digitally is now going?

Did you agree to changes that may quickly lead to you or people you know having no work or hope of ever getting another job?

Did you knowingly allow the parallel, digital universe and the role of arbitrary judgements about you and everything you are, do or can be, to walk in and begin the process of taking over each and every part of your life through the clever use of man-made codes which have been called algorithms?

So many of us fall into the trap of going along with the idea that jobs we know of today will no longer be required or even exist within perhaps just a matter of months because we are told that it represents progress and that the changes that the introduction of new AI-based technologies across life will be better for us all.

But when the narratives and words of politicians, tech gurus and influencers say all or everyone, just exactly who are they really referring to?

Are you going to benefit and in what way?

Are those benefits real, or are they just distractions that appear to make the very small and seemingly meaningless things that we do every day much easier?

Are those benefits really meaningful and long-lasting, or do they cover up how the small wins everything outside of us tells us we need actually covering up the real, long-term losses in our lives that unless we quickly wake up, we will never be able to replace?

Regrettably, few of us are even thinking about the impact and consequences of the changes that we have accepted for the simple reason that everything we have seen and experienced so far, whether it’s the way we shop, are able to access so much through apps or online, or are able to access whatever we believe we want in mere moments online, leaves us with the idea that AI and anything related to digital tech can and will only ever be good for us.

But what was wrong with the way things were two years ago; five years ago, or ten years ago, where the tech that we had in our lives or that we had access to was concerned?

Didn’t life work just as well, and perhaps in some ways that may seem unrelated even better then?

Have computers, smartphones and digital tech really benefitted our lives in the ways that we are led to believe? Or have they actually disadvantaged us and changed our lives in ways that make us very unhappy and create what for some are unmentionable problems, in so many other ways?

Technology and technological improvement or progress is a phenomenon that we must begin looking at in relation to ourselves, the people we care about and those who we have real face to face contact with, regularly within our communities; You know – people living in the real world that is OFFLINE!

Do we actually need a world where we and those people around us do not have jobs and cannot work, because a machine or different software systems can now do all the things that every person does at work, or once did?

Do those people who don’t have jobs really benefit from no longer having work?

Is the best use of AI and new technology to replace us? Or the best use of AI and new technology to assist us?

Surely there can be no doubt that the world around us would be a much better place to live and experience if everyone who can work, does work; and that in return for doing a full weeks work, they in turn receive enough money or remuneration of whatever kind to ensure that they can cover the cost or be able to secure all the basic essentials that give them independence, rather than a situation now evolving where the masses look like they are soon to be left behind.

Where is the drive really coming from for jobs to be lost and make it all seem necessary?

Who benefits from it appearing to be a foregone conclusion that ending jobs and mass redundancy is not a choice that is any of ours to decide?

What we can be sure of is it will not ultimately be people like you and me.

Technology and the advancement of technology and AI is like everything right across life that is being driven by the quest for greater and continuing profits, and the wealth, control, power and influence that quickly follows behind.

We don’t see it because we aren’t supposed to and that’s why what’s really changing underneath what we can see is actually leaving us, our communities and our humanity behind.

The choices being made about the way that new technology is being rolled out and used are not being made in the best interests of the masses. Because if they were, they would not be threatening to take away jobs and resulting in outcomes like the destruction of communities and to lives that it will bring.

If the purposes driving AI and new Tech were genuinely about improving life for all, the changes underway would not be beginning to impact us all negatively, just so that business owners, tech owners and those that benefit can elevate themselves in every way, whilst their actions and choices begin to leave everyday normal people like you and I behind.

Yes, the idea that all jobs, tasks and requirements could be met by machines, software and automation will sound appealing if it means that everyone can do and have whatever they might want without ever having to do a day’s work or lift a finger in effort, ever again.

But just how real do you or anyone that you know believe that idea to be?

Do you really think that the tech companies and those who control AI and digital technology are working day and night at an incredible pace to create a utopia where we all do nothing, pay for nothing, are given everything for free and have whatever we want in our lives without paying for it or working for it?

Wouldn’t we be seeing and experiencing signs of this great giveaway already, if they really were on the altruistic pathway to greatest giveaway to everyone else ever known?

The answer is that whoever and whatever is controlling all of this only has the benefits to themselves in mind. Or they would be happy for AI, for tech and the advancements that are available to be used only to improve life and working conditions for everyone, rather than them being imposed at the head of a revolution, deliberately hidden in plain sight, that is apparently set to leave the majority of the people across the world behind.

The narrative about the role of AI is a myth and the creation of a prophecy that can and will only become true, because we believe the narratives and respond to them as if they were already true. Not Because they are actually real and the AI takeover is as complex or on its imminent way to sentience or being genuinely all-knowing in any way.

The irony is that if we continue to believe the hype; continue to be fooled into thinking AI can and will do all we are being told it will, simply because we have been blindsided by the speed that it works and what we have seen it do so far, we will walk into an elephant trap where the masses will have made themselves irrelevant and we will soon be of no use to those who are controlling all of this and believe it is their right to exploit everything and the lives of all others, if it will help them to achieve whatever they want to do.

The advances in digital technology and Artificial Intelligence are just another step in a long-term process of centralisation and power transfer by design, where the power and Personal Sovereignty that all human beings should have the right to enjoy, has slowly but surely been stolen, but with our manufactured consent.

Our independence and personal power have been progressively eroded and transferred to organisations and people who have no idea who we are, what we do and know nothing about the communities and places where we live.

Yet they now find themselves on the cusp of being able to control every part of our lives and existence through the removal of our independence, making life dependent upon them and their system, which can and will only be able to exist because we have failed to question and reject the idea that this all represents progress for humanity.

Without change, the creation of a mass sub-class of people who can do nothing more than exist – if it is indeed possible for them to continue to do so – is now inevitable and the only way our subservience to this system and what it is dictating can take us.

To be clear, the AI Takeover and technology revolution that we are being conditioned to expect is not necessary. It is not legitimate at any level or in any way.

Technology and innovation should always be used to benefit the whole of mankind. Not just those who create it, own it, regulate it or pay for it, with money they would never have even had, if they had not first corrupted and manipulated the monetary and economic systems of the world so that it would appear to have legitimately gifted them everything that they now have.

Life and what it should offer every person was never meant to be this way.

Power over us all was never meant to be concentrated within the hands of just a few.

Centralisation, remoteness and the dehumanisation of every process and function that maintains and provides for life was never meant to be funnelled into the hands of others. People who will soon have the ability to choose whether other people live or die, based on using the digital chains that our own eagerness to have more of everything has unwittingly enabled them to wrap around a lot more than just our wrists.

Walking away from a system that puts money and the technology that enables it first, as the absolute priority before the masses of people is key to creating a different future. A good future for all, where everyone once again has the opportunity to be free, to be independent and to enjoy fulfilling the functions necessary to create and maintain a genuinely good life. All the time working together and collaborating only with those strictly necessary within our communities to provide everything that is essential for life in a real, localised world where everyone and everything can be trusted, because it can always be seen.

Simplicity of life; simplicity of governance; simplicity of business models and structures; simplicity of money and the systems that only administer it are key to improving every part of life and creating the equitable experiences and opportunities that only real justice, fairness and balance in everything can provide.

Yes, the technology we have certainly has its place.

But the place of tech is to help humanity; not replace it.

People need jobs more than anyone needs a Tech Takeover. Because we all need to function in the world; to contribute to it and to what we all need from each other collectively in some way, and then in return receive whatever we need that will at the very least meet all of our essential and basic needs, so that we can function and support those we care about without ever having to seek or become reliant upon help.

We must reject the use of AI, Tech and the takeover of real life by the digital universe.

We need to get back to basics with the prioritisation of businesses and business structures that are essential to life being sustainable and maintained locally.

Businesses that employ people need to be sized in such ways that mean everyone in every community has work to do and a contribution to make within a system where everyone who can work does work and receives everything they need to be functionally independent and therefore able to meet all their own needs.

Imagine the 21^st century equivalent of the village green, where every essential and basic need for members of the community is met by small businesses dedicated to meeting just the needs of the people that everyone knows and meets face to face, pretty much each and every day.

Businesses that are and only ever will be big enough to provide services and goods to the people they serve as specialists in whatever it is that they do. So that customers always have the best experience possible for them to have, and the business itself prioritises just those needs and pays all of the staff and its working shareholders fairly and justly, ensuring that retail prices will never exceed an affordable relationship with what everything genuinely costs.

This scenario is not only possible. It has now become necessary, if we want to enjoy lives that are built around values and care for everyone, for our communities and the environment that supports us. Rather than pursuing a desperate path to make life and everything we ever do about whatever material wealth, possessions and power that we have.

Money, profit and everything that prompts and promotes the greed that underpins it are the real reasons for centralisation and the transfer of control.

There is no humane reason for any person to become impoverished by the implementation of any form of technology that isn’t being used purely for the benefit of humanity or the public good.

Future Economics must be tied only to people, their contribution, what is important to sustain good, fair and balanced lives, and legal currency must never again be open to speculation and manipulation

You don’t need to be a trained economist to know that the model of economics the world uses and the way economics is revered like work of the gods today is wrong.

In fact, it is probably better if you aren’t, and that you aren’t involved in economics, banking or corporate wealth creation either. As you are much more likely to be objective and untainted by ‘being in the tent’ in some way.

The misplaced ingenuity of the economic system and how it works has made it as complex as it is mind boggling. But that doesn’t give any surety or guarantee that how it works and what it achieves is in any way good.

For those actually thinking about why money is the common factor in everything across the world that is now going wrong, the complexity of the economic system is being exposed to light as the smokescreen that it is giving the hallucination of credibility to all the darkness and malevolence that has been so cleverly hidden within.

How can something so clever and complex not be real, is a question that many would employ as a riposte to counter the suggestion that there is absolutely no legitimacy to the FIAT monetary system, MMT, Free Markets, Globalisation and Neoliberal Orthodoxy that we have been subjected to for 5 decades or more.

But isn’t it the case that any good game that feels good to play is only good for those playing, because of the complexities and therefore levels for ‘the players’ that are involved?

How many carrots does it cost to buy a wheel?

To really understand why the world now has got the relationship with money so wrong – even though it was deliberately made this way by corrupt interests who have changed the laws so that their crimes have been legitimised and wiped clean – we really do need to stop for a moment, count to ten and think about what money is, or rather was really intended for.

In so far as the accepted narrative of human history goes, the whole pathway of our development has been progress that moved towards today in a linear fashion, stepping off from very primitive times when man couldn’t even speak, let alone farm for food.

The point here is not to argue whether or not any accepted version of the evolution of man is true. But to set the first picture back at a point when everything was considerably more simple. Long before more and more of those complex ideas or complexities became involved in how people trade.

Then, as now; different people did different things and produced different foods, goods and services to others as the direct result of whatever it was that they did.

For the purposes of this explanation, let’s assume that there are already fishers, farmers, growers, millers, bakers, saddlers, farriers, blacksmiths, cheese and butter makers, butchers, water carriers and pretty much someone or some small business providing all the different forms of foods, goods and services that we need to provide for life, from around a village green.

Some days a baker doesn’t want fish and a fisher certainly doesn’t want a saddle or leather goods daily. Even though they probably need something made to protect them against the elements from time to time.

However, everyone needs something regularly. Whether it’s for their own consumption, or it’s there to help them complete and provide output or goods from their own work.

Bartering and exchange, or swapping goods or even hours of work are of course a very straightforward and sensible way for two parties to make a transaction when one has something available that the other needs.

But the real benefit of bartering and exchange comes from being localised. And its weakness soon showed when the transactions were required to take place over distance, or for items – like that saddle or something equally special – which in day-to-day terms, are rather obscure.

Money, or coins of some kind used at first, created a transactional value, or to be more accurate, a medium of exchange.

The creation of a medium of exchange meant that one person’s goods or efforts could be exchanged for coins that could then be exchanged for whatever that person wanted themselves. All without there being any excessive delays or the need for a very complex or convoluted chain of different transactions to be involved.

The beauty of the system, at that point, was that the money in use could only relate to the agreed value of the transaction.

It would have been good for everyone, once the related practicalities involved were ironed out, if that system had continued without further ‘progress’. The relationship we all have with money could then have remained the same in relative terms – as that unit of exchange and nothing more.

Unfortunately for mankind, progress very quickly created wealth disparity or what we call wealth inequality today.

This imbalance was itself made progressively worse by the inter-generational transfer of property and wealth (and the power it buys) which has snowballed over time. Quite literally meaning that people can be advantaged or disadvantaged by birth, even before any one of the many other factors that skew life opportunities can come into view.

One of the most unfortunate elements of the human condition is the innate desire to always possess and accumulate more. For no better reason than the basic fear we all have of experiencing lack. With the rather perverse dimension that those who have more guard it more jealously than others, probably because they believe they have much more to lose.

The power and influence that money has given people who really weren’t fit to have the responsibility they had over the lives of others, has only got worse over time.

As industry and technology has improved and made it easier and easier to avoid genuine consideration for the consequences of their actions upon others, the human cost has become increasingly irrelevant, whenever the opportunity to make more profit was involved.

When promissory notes or what we know as cash came into being, a giant leap forward was taken towards the system that we have now, where the accepted wisdom is that the value of the money – or what we are agreeing to exchange as being representative of money – is being exchanged under a mutual understanding of trust, that is shared across society, and not just between the people where the specific transactions are involved.

Trust is of course belief. And as those with power and influence at the centre of the banking system realised that having currencies pinned or anchored to anything meant that they could only ever use or suggest they were able to use the money or sensible multiples of the money that they knew they either held, were owed or could earn within a certain time frame, they knew that they would have to create a new system that would release these chains. So that in terms of the money that they could create and use in the future, the only restraints would be dictated by them.

We should be under no illusion that this process of creating an economic system that could lead to limitless wealth and the control of everything for those who controlled it, wasn’t a plan that developed overnight.

The economic system that we have today was created and implemented over decades and carefully constructed so that it would make life much easier for the interests and in particular the politicians who needed to be bought. So that the useful idiots who gained power under the illusion of democracy would obligingly pave the way with system changes that have legitimised this otherwise criminal system at every step of the way therein.

When everything is about money, the answers to every question can only be found in monetary terms.

The money we have today and the way that it comes to and is taken from us – the economy – is the direct result and design of this massive, corrupt and inhuman game that the worlds wealthy, powerful and influential – the elites, decided to play.

The money we have in our pockets, bank accounts and have the ability to earn changes value quickly at the will or as a result of the actions of others.

Meanwhile, the direction of travel for the general population has always been that we are and always would become increasingly poor, as the value of the money which is typically what the poorest in society have only been able to hold, decreases faster than the rate at which our skills and experience develop or there is any chance to earn more so that we can keep up with or counteract the fall.

It was always intended to be this way. As those with wealth always knew that the real wealth was the control of assets and anything and everything that could then rented out to everyone. All as the world became increasingly poorer and their ability to grow control and rent out everything the money they created had bought them gave them even more.

It is ironic that billionaires now have so many zeros on their balance sheets. As everyone who has been a victim of what is probably mankind’s greatest con is now beginning to realise that they have been left with zero. Or if they are lucky, a diminishing amount of liquid capital that isn’t worth a lot more.

I would like to add at this stage that this essay is not an attack on any individual for whatever it is that they may believe they possess, control or have influence over today. Many of those with excessive wealth, power and influence today have just played along with the rules of a very clever game. One that has removed the balance, Justice and morality from every part of life and has done it so successfully that the poison it has replaced values with is embedded across cultures and normal life to the point that even the academics and leaders in finance and economics believe in the legitimacy and correctness of an entire system which is bewilderingly anti-human at its very core.

In simple terms

The simplicity of the mechanics of an economic system and more specifically a monetary system that revolves around private banks creating money from nothing – a process which is carefully hidden from view – so that government always looks like it is borrowing or rather selling bonds to private interests to finance everything, whilst those banks also lend money that doesn’t exist to us through loans, finance, credit cards and even pay day loans, really do make it horrendously difficult to accept that this is one massive confidence scam. Especially as everything is hidden in plain sight by little more than the disinterest that we typically have in anything that goes beyond having our perceived needs met.

However, let’s think about it as if we were reading a story about two friends at the start of their working lives; one with the motivation to work hard and deliver through their own industry, whilst the other has had life easy and just wants to find another easy way to get more, and we can then perhaps see how this gargantuan scam rolls out when exposed to light.

The diligent and easy living friends talk one day, looking at property that they would both like to own.

The diligent friend commits to working hard and earning the money to buy what they would like to own and leaves, promising to catch up when this outcome has been achieved.

Meanwhile, the easy living friend knows that he has the contacts and ideas necessary to go away and print enough of the money he needs to buy that same property today. And that he can do this from nothing, which will work out well for him but not his friend, so long as he doesn’t speak openly about what he’s doing. Uses his contacts to change a few rules so that what he’s doing is legal. And he doesn’t keep printing more money to buy everything else so that it becomes obvious what he’s been doing all along. Afterall, nobody will know if he uses the money he then earns from renting out that property to pay all that money back…

The money that the easy living friend has created, has just increased the amount of money that exists.

This means that because there isn’t actually any more property, production or anything else with ‘real’ value that corresponds to the increasing pool of money, all of the money that’s available is now worth much less than it was.

The real world impact of this fantasy being made reality is that the diligent friend will have to worker harder, longer or both, to pay for the property that the easy living friend has just taken without effort.

What is more, the easy living friend is now offering to rent the property he’s bought to the diligent friend who now realises that he may never be able to afford to buy it.

If you can see and understand the basic mechanics of how this situation works, you only need scale up the same principles to understand how the massive, growing amount of money – and the ridiculous inflation and the growing cost of living problem we are all facing, has been created and is now growing at a ridiculous rate.

It is an unavoidable, inescapable fact that if one person or set of people are able to buy real, tangible things that have value to us – whatever those things might be – with money that doesn’t actually exist, they can take lawful possession of those things and do with them whatever they so choose – as any legitimate owner would be able to do so.

However, the illegitimate creation of the money and the legitimised theft of assets, businesses, infrastructure and everything else imaginable that it has financed means what they have been doing is just one part of a multifaceted crime against everyone else.

The crimes that follow the created money pathways include the impoverishment of the masses.

Yet they become even worse when we consider that public services and infrastructure such as utility companies have been bought up with fake money.

Entire business sectors like the pub trade and small, local shops have also all become unviable because fake money has financed industry expansion of big retail and all their centralised supply chains, that would not otherwise have been possible.

To cap that all off, markets and the practices of big business and finance have been deregulated through the drive for ‘Free Markets’. So that those making money can make more and more, because the rules that once protected us all and small independent businesses have been removed, whilst regulations that cost us, exclude us and disqualify us from our own independence and from taking part have instead been imposed under the pretence that they help and protect us.

The whole pathway of illegitimate money creation using the FIAT system leads or rather has led to the doorstep of nothing less than worldwide system control.

The only thing that now gives us the opportunity to save ourselves from a very challenging fate is the reality that those with their hands in the till have already broken too many of the rules of their own game.

The whole system is starting to collapse before the great reset or imposition of the next new world order has conclusively been imposed.

The Future of Money

I could stop there. But in lifting the stone or exposing what lies beneath it to light I am certainly not alone.

Before continuing further, I would encourage anyone who has read this far to do their own research and use as many different sources and mediums as they can to uncover and draw their own conclusions about all of this and what is really going on.

My real interest and passion is what happens next for us and for our future. Once we have got through this horrid time and whatever turbulence and challenges that we now face, once we have got to the other side and left them all behind.

Whilst I have written extensively about what a good working model for our future society would look like in Our Local Future, I have also spent time sharing thoughts and ideas about the way money and commerce would work, in books from Levelling Level, to An Economy for the Common Good and The Basic Living Standard too.

What we should perhaps all be able to conclude – once we have dealt with our own addictions and attachment to the way that endless money supposedly works for us all now – is that money should never hold its own value. Should never be speculated upon, and the power of its creation and policing should never be under private control.

What is more, the value of legal currency should never be pinned to anything that can itself vary in value, especially when whatever that currency is pinned to is in short supply or can be controlled manipulatively or otherwise at will.

People are the only legitimate economic constant

If everyone did what they do, only took what they need and were happy to share or exchange what they didn’t with whoever needed it in return for something they did in return, there would never be need of money of any kind, ever again.

Whilst I can see that to many the idea that everyone just does what they do today for nothing and that in return, they get just enough of what they need of everything else in return might seem fanciful, this suggestion does nonetheless make a very important point about everyone only taking or expecting to have access to what they actually need.

Need is NOT the same thing as want.

Too much want is what has led to a situation where there are people right across the world today who don’t have access just to the things that they need.

An economy – a legitimate economy – will function only to provide for the needs of people within it.

There isn’t an argument that can counter this legitimately. Any argument made against this, no matter how compelling or well elucidated, is inevitably built upon one person being able to obtain or accumulate more things than others. Because the alternative system favours their interests more.

These are the fundamental basics of greed.

Locality based economies and economics

Everyone who can, should play their part or contribute to the function of a legitimate economy, in whatever role they are able. So that everyone who is active, then comes together to become the sum of all the parts – with the sum of those parts being the community, which because of what members can do together collaboratively, will be greater than what everyone would be able to do by working alone.

The value of a legitimate economy should therefore be based upon the number of people who are active within it and include what they input or contribute to that economy individually and therefore collectively.

If every member of the community does what they should be doing, and the needs of everyone being met are always prioritised and planned for or budgeted for as they should be, the whole system will move closely towards self-containment, with the amount of money in circulation always being closely related to the number of heads within the population.

A localised and online local market exchange system that focuses on bartering and exchange for foods, goods, services and work being made universally available alongside cash and digitally transferable money, should also exist so that everything works in a circular fashion and everyone’s particular needs are always met in ways that favour everyone.

The needs for public service, infrastructure, community activities and everything beyond should be met by everyone who is able to work volunteering the equivalent of 1/10 of their working week and their skills or experience to the community. Thereby meeting whatever needs and community income generation requirement there may then be.

Excess goods produced, surplus service capacity and over production which is specialist to the community would also be traded with other communities and traded where any additional requirements beyond the scope of community production exist.

The blight of greed-driven thinking

The only reason that an economic system that will work like this, which promotes freedom and financial independence of the masses, would not work, is because those who would no longer be able to define themselves as being different to others through the accumulation of additional and unnecessary wealth will argue that it isn’t practical and cannot work.

Even within a genuinely egalitarian approach to economics based along these lines, it is a fact that some could always do better, because they choose to do so through their own industry. Whilst many others – and the majority at that, would be happy to just make the contribution that was absolutely necessary, knowing that they would be happy, healthy, safe and secure because all of their basic and essential needs were being met.

It is part of the capitalist myth that entrepreneurialism and creativity in commerce cannot exist when the ability to earn or rather profit is capped.

The real truth of the matter is that everyone will be productive and make a valuable contribution when anything that goes beyond what it takes to look after themselves and those who depend on them is a choice and the ability to just live a normal life without dependency on anything beyond themselves hasn’t been denied by the actions of others.

Nobody has the right to take or have more than they need and certainly not when it can only come to them through the exploitation and infliction of pain and suffering of any kind upon others.

The greatest benefit of AI today will be a new dark age of stupidity and ignorance that our surrender to it will bring

There’s something very wrong with the AI story that we are all being sold:

Nobody seems to have noticed that the script of man’s pathway to the pinnacle of human intelligence is about to come to its end, by handing our ability to think, over to machines.

As I write, I’m wondering if the name ‘Artificial Intelligence’ was a deliberate way to hide the truth in plain sight, all along.

Not because the technological breakthroughs that are coming at us thick and fast aren’t very clever.

But because just like the surrender of our value set to an artificial, valueless and damaging world dominated by money that manipulates everything about the way we think, we are about to give away our ability to even do that, to systems and technologies that cannot genuinely benefit any human being – other than those who own and run them.

In my eBook Actions Speak Louder than Digital Words, I talked about AI only having the ability to look back at history and the past. Even where back meant what had been published or ‘sensed’ by the Internet up to the very moment when the system was responding to a specific command.

This overlooked or deliberately whitewashed flaw of AI echoes one of the greater faults in the Human experience, where we inherently look backwards to our past experiences to provide guidance for the future.

This should be troubling enough.

But what wasn’t apparent even when I published that book in June 2023, was that as AI began filling everything across the web and digital sphere with its own responses, muses and anything else we can give AI-derived content as a name, it would then begin leveraging just as much and increasingly more of its own diluted content as a source, which is almost certain to increase as human input or creativity dries up.

And the contribution of human creativity and intelligence to the smorgasbord board of information and data that the AI engines feast on is most certainly drying up, as more and more of us surrender to the narrative we have been fed that tells us AI is now the only way, and jobs are threatened by the accompanying suggestion that AI can do things that we can never do!

Dictating our future by using the past as our point of reference certainly holds us back and creates all sorts of difficulties at all levels of life that we didn’t ever need to have.

However, the one thing that makes that experience manageable and, in some ways, arguably beneficial too, is that our human creativity and ability to look at every new situation and make sense of it and its context in ways that allow us to build bridges into the future, means that we are making progress all the time. Even if that progress is slower, whereas a machine that is limited only to reading what has already happened simply cannot.

People – and many of them too – genuinely accept the stories and myths that we have and are now being sold.

They believe and, in many cases, have become fearful that AI can already or very soon will take over every function that humans currently carry out within any business or organisation. Despite the reality that anyone using their common sense or daring to listen to their inner voice will recognise a very big question, ‘Where in this future does that leave any need for me?’

AI is very fast at what it does and is able to look at potentially all the information that is available to us in digital form at the very moment in time that a question is asked or an instruction is given.

That – and only that – is the real magic of AI.

It is the reason that we are all just accepting the idea that AI is already infinitely cleverer than Humans could ever be. Just as those who benefit from us believing this to be true intend us to believe.

However, our acceptance that we no longer need to be creative or think for ourselves, means that we will not only increasingly become dependent upon a pool of ‘knowledge’ outside of ourselves – albeit a very large one of everything that has been recorded, spoken, considered and then committed to the internet and digital platforms up to some point in history before. But this pool of knowledge that we will use for everything will become increasingly diluted by the growing amount of poor and corrupt information, data and ‘understanding’ that our already burgeoning use of AI with everything is now spaffing out into the digital ether.

As you read, Humanity is literally giving up the ability to think and create for itself, to a machine-driven world that is incapable of doing any more.

What is more, Humanity is surrendering these cornerstone abilities for survival voluntarily. Because someone who benefits from us believing we are inadequate without technology has told us this, when a change of the kind that overreliance on AI could be about to usher in would have needed something akin to an extinction-level event to take place at any time in world history before.

This uncomfortable truth will not stop those who stand to benefit from the AI takeover from pushing and promoting this path. They will continue peddling the myths that the AI takeover will be in our best interests and will be inevitable all the same. When it is nothing of the sort.

The Technology we have available to us today will not live up to its greatest potential. Because the greatest potential any technology that man invents will have, is to help improve the lives and experiences of all men, rather than to replace any one of them.

We know this to be true, as this has regrettably been the way that technological advancements have always impacted Humanity since the ending of the Agricultural Age.

Technology has always been employed to make money for those who own and control it since then.

The rise of new technology has always been at the cost of all others at some level. No matter who they are or what their connections might be.

The reality we face is that it may already be too late to save the world we recognise from a fate that we have all unwittingly chosen. Rather than there being any kind of event or catastrophe at the heart of future change that no one person could have been responsible for.

However, if we are to address the slide towards universal ignorance, with the accompanying potential to take us back into the dark ages once more, we must reassess, reimagine and regulate the uses of every kind of technology. So that technology’s master can only be the public good. Rather than profit and the disaster that is following hard in its footsteps right now.

If we value the Human experience and wish to improve it, it is time to learn, share and then live the truth that there is no need for any technology to replace jobs, other than so just a few can increase their profits and control.

The best way for everyone and everything to live well, is without the complications and diversions that misappropriated technology imposes upon us, and the technology we do embrace should always be used for the greater good and for the benefit of everyone involved.
