El Niño formed faster in 1997, but 2026 has much more warm water in the tank.
Relentless westerly wind bursts and a longer tongue of warm subsurface water suggest sea surface temperatures have much farther to climb.
We're nowhere near the peak yet.
Imagine a parent who spends far more than they earn every single month. FAR more.
Instead of cutting back, they keep borrowing. For a while, life is comfortable for the family. Nobody minds, the times are good. But the credit cards go up. The loans get bigger. The interest keeps mounting. It gets worse and worse. The interest payments soon outweigh the food costs, the energy bill, the mortgage.
It becomes unmanageable. The family’s income cannot cover it. It grows and grows and grows.
The parent retires - doesn’t want to work, but wants the easy life to continue. The burden is left with the children who had no say in how the debt was accumulated in the first place. They’re left to pay the interest every month. Life is hard, and getting harder. The payments are crushing, and so vast the idea of ever repaying the actual debt feels impossible.
Their entire financial existence is treading water in an attempt to manage the interest payments, all for decisions they did not take.
Not an acceptable situation, is it?
Clearly not.
That is exactly what my generation has done to Britain's young men and women.
In 2025/26 the government spent roughly £110 billion on debt interest. That’s 3.6% of GDP and 8.1% of total public spending. Almost double the defence budget.
Think about that for a minute.
It is INSANE.
Think about how many taxpayers are working to simply service that debt. Not to fund public services or to build infrastructure, or to look after those in need, but to pay debt interest.
To fund awful decisions.
That is Britain in 2026. 30 years of easy, lazy and selfish decisions.
We've borrowed hundreds of billions of pounds to avoid making hard choices. The debt grew, the interest payments soared. We've expanded the fat state, lived so far beyond our means and convinced ourselves someone else would eventually pay for it.
That someone else is our children. Their children. Our grandchildren.
They are expected to buy homes we made unaffordable, pay taxes we’ve allowed to soar and work to service a national debt we accumulated.
Somehow survive the inflation that we have stoked and stoked with endless money printing and the growth of the parasitic state.
We should have left them a country with affordable homes, low debt, cheap energy, growing industries and money in the bank. We should have left them a home built on solid foundations.
As a country, we have failed.
Restore Britain is prepared to do what responsible parents do, to do what that parent should have done to begin with. Stop spending money we don't have.
Brutally cut back, live within our means and then some. Pay off the debt. Make the difficult choices. Not for us, but for them.
Does that approach make for easy decisions today? No. Does it win many votes? Probably not.
But it is the only way to restore fairness, responsibility and economic sanity.
Because I don’t know how else to put this.
The country is BROKE. Britain is bankrupt, and my generation bankrupt it. Zero point denying it.
And let me be clear about one thing.
The economy, and the country, is teetering on the edge of a very high, a very jagged and a very dangerous cliff.
Complete and total economic collapse awaits.
But the only good news is that there is finally a political party with the courage and the honesty to do something about it for our children and our grandchildren - to start the rebuild, the repair, the restoration.
Restore Britain.
And if you don't like the sound of those difficult decisions, then don't vote for us.
Supercharged Heat Domes are appearing all around the Planet! Why? It’s a developing super El Niño combined with a much warmer Earth, spiking natural cycles with extra heat injected into the system and pattern changes augmenting the jet stream. The US will endure one of its most expansive heatwaves in history this week. Then another long lasting record breaking heat dome will plague #Europe again, back to back on its worst #heatwave in its history! With #elnino on top of a heated globe, expect the unexpected this year!!
It has now reached the point where I truly believe that public officials and politicians who continue to knowingly import third world savages into our communities should be prosecuted.
It is that reckless, that irresponsible, that dangerous.
People need to go to prison.
Ce qu'il y a de fascinant avec certains Afro-Maghrébins sur les réseaux sociaux, c'est qu'ils sont persuadés que le fait qu'ils soient nés en France et possèdent une carte en plastique qui prétend qu'ils sont français rendra impossible leur remigration.
Ils ne sont pas prêts.

>Remember: I do this, for you, until you learn to do it for yourself.
“I do this for you until you learn to do it for yourself,” says the American lead character in Citizen Vigilante to the Europeans he is protecting. It is a sharp and memorable closing statement that captures the film’s core message.
Basically, the entire film only works because its central character is American. A German, French, or British protagonist in that role would have made the story feel false from the first scene. Europe has spent decades cultivating a culture of hesitation and submission. Citizens have been trained to wait, to doubt themselves, and to accept whatever restrictions, failures, or chaos the state imposes.
This is not noble restraint. It is a deep-seated habit of passivity and obedience that leaves people in Europe unable to imagine acting decisively against disorder or abuse of power. It also leaves them unable to rise up and resist regimes even when those regimes begin to turn tyrannical.
That Untertan mentality, that reflex of obedience to authority, is part of the darker socio-cultural DNA of Europe, and especially of Germany’s political history. “Just following orders” is not just a phrase. It is a warning about what happens in Europe when obedience replaces conscience.
The United States developed in the total opposite direction, largely because of the Second Amendment and the self-confidence of the American people toward Washington, D.C. That provision was never meant to be a narrow legal technicality. It was designed as a permanent structural limit on government authority.
An armed population was understood to be the final safeguard against a state that might one day turn against its own citizens. In America, this is not merely theory. Americans privately own roughly 500 million firearms, while the entire military and all law enforcement agencies combined possess only 5.5 million firearms. That makes it clear where ultimate power still resides: with the people, not the state.
Europe has no equivalent. Germany’s Article 20 paragraph 4 of the Basic Law offers, almost as an alibi, a weak theoretical right to resistance, but only under conditions so restrictive that the clause becomes almost useless in practice. It would likely apply only after the damage is already irreversible. Too little, too late, as so often in Europe.
This difference in civilizational outlook explains why the hero of the film had to come from America. The character is shaped by a culture that still values personal responsibility, armed self-reliance, and the willingness to confront threats directly rather than deferring to authority or process.
The same gap appears in military and police culture. The United States has maintained elite units and a broad respect for service for generations. Soldiers, police officers, the National Guard, and the Coast Guard are still viewed with pride when they truly protect and serve the people.
In much of Europe today, police forces are increasingly viewed as tools of political enforcement and selective suppression rather than neutral protectors of order. When officers prioritize censorship, speech restrictions, and biased enforcement over actual crime, they lose the moral standing that once came with the uniform.
An American protagonist fits this story because he operates from a different set of assumptions. He does not wait for permission or consensus. He acts when the situation demands it, and he is not afraid to resist state overreach, corrupt institutions, or officials who have abandoned justice. That is very much in the spirit of the American constitutional tradition.
The irony is that German authorities have now increased the film’s reach. By blocking the official release, they triggered exactly the kind of attention they wanted to avoid. This is a textbook Streisand effect.
What began as a mostly European discussion is now spreading to larger American X accounts and beyond. It would not be surprising if even @ElonMusk eventually comments on the case. Germany’s attempt to suppress the film has turned it into a wider free-speech issue.
In the end, the story illustrates a larger pattern. European societies in general, and many of their citizens in particular, have become remarkably passive in the face of rising disorder and institutional failure. Europe increasingly lets everything happen to it. Without real resistance. Without serious pushback.
The Old World seems to have forgotten how to defend itself and how to push back effectively. Whether that changes on its own, or whether the necessary impulse to resist must again come from the New World helping its origins one last time, remains to be seen.
Muchos sois muy jóvenes y no lo recordáis pero estuvieron 40 años diciéndonos que no tuviéramos hijos porque se acaba el planeta para ahora meternos a 15 millones de inmigrantes porque dicen que no tenemos hijos. Y no, no digas que estaba planificado.
After losing World War II, Germany lost 25% of all its territory and 14 million Germans were ethnically cleansed from Eastern Europe.
And yet, there hasn’t been a single case of Germans hijacking planes, blowing themselves up, or committing terrorist attacks like Palestinians.
Habe mich die Tage mit einem Schulfreund getroffen.
Wohnt in Stuttgart, Einkäufer bei einem Auto-Konzern, ca. 120.000 Euro brutto. Seine Frau arbeitet bei einem Automobilzulieferer, ebenfalls gutes Gehalt, beide haben einen Sohn.
Folgendes Zitat ist bei mir hängen geblieben:
"Natürlich geht es uns vergleichsweise nach wie vor gut. Aber der Trend seit 2022 ist eindeutig und der geht steil nach unten.
In unseren Firmen kommt immer mehr Gegenwind. Jobs werden gestrichen, die Arbeit auf die verbleibenden Schultern verteilt. Gehaltsrunden werden ausgesetzt. Boni fallen aus.
Mein nominales Gehalt in 2026 liegt auf dem Niveau von 2022. Real verdiene ich weniger.
Gleichzeitig steigen Steuern & Abgaben. D.h. staatlich kommt auch immer mehr Gegenwind. Wir zahlen mehr für die Kita, wir sehen höhere Abgaben. Würden wir ein zweites Kind bekommen, gäbe es kein Elterngeld für uns.
Unsere Kaufkraft wird von allen Seiten angegriffen.
Und das alles in einer Stadt, die gefühlt immer unsicherer wird. Bei gleichzeitig steigenden Mieten und steigenden Lebenshaltungskosten.
Das ist einfach insgesamt keine gute Entwicklung. An allen Fronten läuft es in die falsche Richtung."
Today the European Parliament voted 418-218 to pass the strictest migration law in EU history.
When the result was announced, MEPs started chanting.
"Send them back."
Inside the parliament chamber. On the floor. In 2026.
Here's what the law actually does:
— Deportation orders now apply across all EU member states. You can't evade removal by crossing a border.
— Detention before deportation extended from 6 months to 30 months. Unlimited for security threats.
— "Return hubs" in third countries. Migrants can be transferred outside the EU while awaiting deportation — including families with children.
— Automatic deportation stays while appeals are pending? Gone. Courts decide case by case.
— Entry bans double from 5 to 10 years. Lifetime bans for security risks.
Currently only about 20% of people ordered deported from the EU actually leave.
For years European leaders told voters that open borders and mass migration were non-negotiable — that wanting enforcement meant you were a fascist.
418 Members of the European Parliament just disagreed.
Trump proved his immigration policies were popular enough to win elections.
After a wave of right-wing electoral gains across the continent, Europe is following in his footsteps.
And the Overton Window is getting kicked off its hinges.

Let me explain what’s happening with the SpaceX IPO👇
It’s officially the biggest IPO in history.
$1.77 trillion.
Apple took 42 YEARS to reach $1 trillion. SpaceX will nearly double that in ONE DAY.
Now do the math. SpaceX LOST $4.9 billion last year. It’s never made a profit in the history of the company.
But here’s what nobody’s talking about…
SpaceX isn’t the problem. The rockets are real. The demand is real.
It’s the money that’s broken.
When a company that loses billions can go public at $1.77 trillion… that number isn’t measuring SpaceX anymore.
It’s measuring what the dollars are worth.
Trillions printed. Nowhere to go. Nobody in control of it anymore.
SpaceX isn’t expensive… the US dollar is officially starting its death spiral.
Everything is about to be repriced… fast. Houses. Stocks. Gold. Bitcoin. Everything.
We can never go back after tomorrow.
Most people have NO IDEA what’s about to happen next…
The Iran war “ended” the day before the biggest IPO in history, Trump’s birthday, and a UFC card at the White House.
What a coincidence. What timing. Wow.
The Houthis a few hours ago declared transit of the Bab El Mandeb Strait will be closed to enemy shipping
So far the market hasn’t got the memo, especially oil traders. I believe the next memo will be louder, clearer and harder to ignore
Feels like the beginning of an epic week
THE CEO OF THE WORLD'S MOST VALUABLE COMPANY JUST TOLD RETAIL TO BUY THE IPO. HERE'S THE PROBLEM.
🇺🇸 Jensen Huang said on CNBC that buying SpaceX, OpenAI and Anthropic at IPO will be like buying Amazon, Google or Meta in the early days.
But look closer. Amazon's early buyers paid $0.09. Meta's paid $38. They bought cheap, before the world noticed.
SpaceX is targeting a $2,000,000,000,000 valuation at IPO. That's not the early days. That's the late innings, priced for perfection.
The early money already made its return in private. Retail gets to buy the exit.
