A Property Empire II

Jac — Tue, 11 Aug 2026 08:00:11 +0000

The title is explained by the fact that in December 2022 I put out a piece titled A Property Empire. (I bet you’d guessed that!) Which makes this is, unashamedly, a follow-up. ◊ BACKGROUND That first piece was about a Rhyl property developer named Christopher Paul Walsh, and his company Walsh Investment Properties Ltd. I only …

Caveat Emptor!

Jac — Tue, 24 Mar 2026 09:00:06 +0000

Over the past year I’ve written a few times about companies in Wales profiting from the UK government’s ECO4 scheme, through cavity wall insulation, solar panels, heat pumps, etc. Most recently, I’ve had to write about one of these companies going belly-up leaving dissatisfied customers; either suffering from poor workmanship that needed remedial work, or …

Cairngorm Capital – The Kiss Of Death

Jac — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 07:30:21 +0000

This is a follow-up to my previous piece on the collapse of Consumer Energy Solutions Ltd (CES), owned by Cairngorm Capital. I suspect CES will be followed by linked companies that have also been taking advantage of the UK government’s ECO4 scheme, due to end in March. Even before the scheme ends MPs are calling …

WWF War On Farmers Takes To The Sea!

Jac — Tue, 21 Oct 2025 08:00:56 +0000

In a sense, this piece follows on from last week’s post about Plaid Cymru betraying Welsh farmers with absurd claims that agriculture alone is responsible for the pollution in our rivers. We’ll meet again that Nazi-origined, anti-humanity crew of Globalist schemers in WWF, but also some interesting new faces. First, we head to Pembrokeshire. ◊ …

Plaid Cymru Abandons Welsh Farmers

Jac — Thu, 16 Oct 2025 08:00:25 +0000

Last Saturday I put out a post on X drawing attention to something that had been said at the Plaid Cymru conference in Swansea. This piece follows on from that. ◊ ‘IT’S THEM FARMERS WOT DONE IT!’ Speaking from the main stage Alex Phillips of the WWF wanted the audience to believe that when it …

Bute Energy And Others, A Round-up

Jac — Wed, 01 Oct 2025 18:00:16 +0000

I haven’t devoted a full piece to Bute Energy and the rest since August last year. Which is somewhat remiss, seeing as the plans are ongoing and causing great concern to communities across the land. That said, maybe this offering is directed more at the general reader than those who follow Bute’s activities closely, or …

Why I’m Putting Independence On Hold

Jac — Wed, 10 Sep 2025 08:00:50 +0000

I’m still waiting for information promised on a matter I’ve written about recently and so, until it reaches me, I’m going to take an opportunity to clarify my position on Welsh independence. ◊ BACKGROUND I have always believed in Welsh independence. I will always believe in Welsh independence. This is an article of faith, beyond …

‘Farming’ – The Globalist Way!

Jac — Wed, 30 Jul 2025 08:15:58 +0000

Let me stress that the blog is not back, as such, not up and running as in days of yore. I’m just putting out the occasional piece. This one because it complements last week’s offering about Globalists who dreamed up the ‘climate crisis’ now profiting from measures introduced to combat that fantasy. And as with …

To Be A Farmer’s Boy

Jac — Thu, 05 Sep 2024 08:00:54 +0000

This week’s offering is about organisations that are often little more than a name. Yet despite their lack of corporeal substance these outfits enjoy considerable support from the self-styled ‘Welsh Government’. Which is bad enough, but Wales has far too many of these organisations, and their numbers seem to be increasing monthly. ∼ The title …

The Betrayal Of The White Working Class

Jac — Mon, 19 Aug 2024 08:00:46 +0000

Don’t worry, I won’t be looking at every incident we’ve witnessed in recent weeks, or dwelling on the insane sentences handed down for poking your tongue out at cops, or being a couple of streets away from a riot. This post is made up of assorted observations and musings about the situation in the UK …
