Excuse my grumpiness...
And I am aware that TRG does some good work in her videos but when she started waffling on about indigenous land, and human rights, and colonialism...
But she wants to know where this $100million, decided upon at this secret meeting, is going...
(
I'll use Kenya as an example, as I've been following the Kware murder case)
And recent events have been a useful case study.
We'll skip the part about the national parks, and conservation charities, that has already happened...
The President of Kenya is called William Ruto - he's somewhat of a populist, and has been around government for a decade - but he isn't really the West's man. He was a political ally of the Kenyatta family (
who have been the big wigs in Kenya since independence) - and I notice that Mrs Kenyatta, the wife of the ex-president is currently at some 'leadership' conference in America for 'first ladies' talking about something or another -
which has got absolutely nothing to do with the Ford Foundation, or any other 'woke' group, who are absolutely not trying to overthrow the government.
In February, the Ford Foundation met with judges to chat about Social Justice...
And they have been chatting with other people,,,
And as if by magic, a protest movement called Gen Z appears... demanding (
would you believe it) Social Justice.
Which among other things, has led to storming the parliament, rioting, and forced Ruto sack his cabinet...
Yesterday Ruto accused the Ford Foundation of financing Gen Z....
Which they deny...
it's a complete coincidence that this follows the pattern elsewhere...
There has been more rioting today...
But don't worry...
Because the EU is here help...
They've been holding seminars in parliament teaching women MPs (
sorry, lawmakers) something or another...
And there are others...

Britain gave a grant yesterday to support sustainable agriculture -
so that's good news for sugar snap peas in M&S... and florists up and down the land.
Now this is not all bad.
Partly it is to shaft the Chinese -
thank you very much for the new ports and the new railways, now sling your hook...
And there is a program to crack down on corruption.
And there are wider security issues, particularly in Saharan Africa - what with Chad, Mali, and Niger confederating, and telling the French and Americans to leave.
Is this old fashioned imperialism?
No more than what the Indians, Chinese, and Russians are doing.
Will it make Harry rich if he is mixed up in it - maybe- but isn't one of the Wallmart people also involved in Africa Parks?
Though I do come back to this intriguing bit of name dropping from the Sydney Morning Herald...
British mercenary Simon Mann voiced relief on Wednesday as he arrived home after more than five "tough" years behind bars for a failed 2004 coup plot in oil-rich Equatorial Guinea.
www.smh.com.au
"
Mann, who lived in the Cape Town suburb of Constantia - also home to Charles Spencer, brother of the late Princess Diana, and until recently Mark Thatcher - allegedly used the 'old boy' network to finance his deals."
One of the puzzling things, if Harry is making money, or setting up deals, why bother pissing about with Netflix and award shows?

I do find myself wondering, and I am not saying Travelyst is directly involved, if this is what the anti-tourism protests in places like Majorca are about.
Because obviously we can't all have nice things - so no holiday for you.
