Brian Gerrish's chance encounter with a neighbour called Bill, in a car park in Devon, South West England, led to a unexpected discussion about cars and driving on snow and ice."You've got a Honda", said Bill. "Is that model any good on snow?"Brian then learned Bill was about to deliver aid to the front line in Ukraine and would be driving in bad winter conditions. On his return a few weeks later Bill met up with Brian and told the story of his experience and journey.This short and fascinating tale is very different from what you may imagine.Please join us in 'From L'viv to Sumy; delivering Front Line Aid to Ukraine.'► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficialFollow #UKColumn on:► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news

In this urgent episode of The Silk and Steel Podcast, Carlos is joined by returning guest Dr. Warwick Powell (Australia) to dissect the catastrophic first weeks of the Trump administration's war against Iran. What was supposed to be a "wham-bam, thank you ma'am" decapitation strike has spiraled into a nightmare that is exposing the hollow core of American military power and the unraveling of the US empire.

Do Not Fight the Government’s Wars | Jerm Warfare► Subscribe to the UK Column YouTube channel ► https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficialJerm and Etienne De La Boetie² explore the deep ties between organised crime, politics, and media, highlighting how these forces shape public perception and drive conflict for profit rather than security. They argue that government functions as a tool of control and exploitation, undermining individual autonomy and fostering systemic corruption.The military is shown to erode personal morality, while war's consequences deeply affect both soldiers and civilians. Democracy is viewed as inherently flawed and irredeemable, with propaganda maintaining its illusion.The discussion concludes that a society without government—one grounded in free market principles—could offer greater freedom, peace, and prosperity, provided people understand and resist existing power structures.https://artofliberty.org► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficialFollow #UKColumn on:► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news

Mike Robinson is joined once again by Vanessa Beeley, reporting from Lebanon, for Episode 9 of the Syria Podcast. In this episode: Vanessa opens with an account of a major Israeli special forces incursion into the Beqaa Valley, involving helicopters operating out of Syrian territory and forces reportedly disguised in Lebanese army uniforms. She describes how Hezbollah's intelligence pre-empted the operation, leading to an ambush, and how MANPAD systems were used to push back Israeli fighter jets sent to cover the withdrawal.From there, Mike and Vanessa work through the broader strategic picture: Israel's use of Syrian territory under Jolani's HTS as both a launch pad for attacks on Lebanon and an escape corridor; the ongoing Israeli campaign of warnings, displacement, and destruction in southern Lebanon and the southern suburbs of Beirut; and the near-impossibility of reconstruction given that Western and Gulf funding has been deliberately curtailed between rounds of destruction.The conversation moves to the ideological drivers of the conflict, particularly the role of Christian Zionist "Armageddon theology" in shaping US foreign policy, the religious extremism visible in the messaging from the Pentagon and figures like Pete Hegseth, and the distinction Vanessa draws between mainstream Sunni Islam and the Wahhabi-derived Takfiri doctrine weaponised by Western intelligence since 2011. She describes first-hand evidence from eastern Aleppo in 2016 of the systematic Saudi-funded radicalisation of children in occupied Syrian suburbs and the long-term consequences now playing out.The second half of the episode focuses on the Iran conflict directly: the strategic sophistication of Iran's opening moves: blinding Gulf state radar, closing the Strait of Hormuz, coordinating Hezbollah drone and missile waves to saturate Israeli interceptor systems across multiple defensive layers, and Vanessa's analysis of Iran's underground "missile cities" as a near-indestructible manufacturing and launch infrastructure. She discusses Iran's adoption of the Chinese Beidou satellite system as its primary navigation and targeting platform, and why this makes it considerably more capable than Western assessments acknowledge.Mike raises the controversy over AI-assisted targeting and the specific case of the Minab school strike, in which 165 girls were killed. Vanessa discusses both the plausible deniability function of blaming AI systems, and the real dangers of AI in military targeting, noting the irony that Claude AI was reportedly implicated in the flagging of the site on the basis of outdated mapping data, at the same time as Anthropic has reversed its previous position on military use of its technology.The episode closes with analysis of false flag operations targeting Turkey, Azerbaijan, and Gulf states; the military limitations of Arab Gulf forces without direct US involvement; the role of Iraqi resistance factions; and what Vanessa expects to unfold next in Lebanon and Syria.► Join UK Column Live every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1pm UK time or watch previous live recordings here: https://bit.ly/UKColumn_Live► [UK Column Website] Explore all our written and video content on the official UK Column website: https://www.ukcolumn.org/► [Support UK Column] Please donate to support our independent journalism & investigative journalism: https://support.ukcolumn.org/► [UK Column YouTube] Please subscribe to the UK Column News YouTube channel for more alternative news and independent news: https://bit.ly/ukcolumnofficialFollow #UKColumn on:► X: https://x.com/ukcolumn► Telegram: https://t.me/ukcolumn► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/UKColumnExtracts► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/uk_column_news

You Can Do It — with Professor Richard Ennos | UK Column InterviewsRichard Ennos, a retired Professor of Evolutionary Biology at the University of Edinburgh, had an inspirational conversation with Professor Diane Rasmussen about Richard’s pro-human and anti-globalist group, Common Knowledge Edinburgh, which works locally to raise awareness and fight against the globalist agenda.Richard was rare among academics in March 2020 when he openly questioned the so-called ‘science’ behind the stated narrative for the Scottish Government’s actions at the time. He was arrested at a November 2020 lockdown protest in Edinburgh. These events contributed toward the formation of his group, Common Knowledge Edinburgh. The Executive Committee, which Richard chairs, is "driven by truth, freedom and the desire for a pro-human future". Richard believes in the power and importance of human community, and what can be accomplished when people work together.The group holds monthly talks by individuals who will be known to the UK Column audience; recent guests have included Sonia Poulton, The Bowler Hat Farmer, and former midwife Victoria Rixon. In mid-December 2025, it hosted 'Brian Gerrish’s Christmas Message', which aired on Christmas Eve via UK Column. In February 2025, it held the Scottish People’s Covid Inquiry event. Quoting Richard’s comment piece on UK Column about the event: The most profound insight that emerged from the conference is that there was no deadly and highly contagious respiratory disease present in Scotland in March 2020. The actual incidence of the illness designated as Covid did not even remotely approach the conditions of a public health emergency. There was no pandemic.Recordings of all the presentations given at the Scottish People’s Covid Inquiry can be found on the UK Column website, including Diane’s invited talk, ‘The Covid-19 Campaign — Propaganda, Lies, and Fear’.Health is an important aspect of Common Knowledge Edinburgh's work. Local Abundance is a group that works in partnership with Common Knowledge Edinburgh. It is "a community of like-minded consumers who are concerned about food security and quality. We are seeking to build a direct, mutually supportive relationship with farmers and growers and cultivate a healthier, more viable future". Local Abundance facilitates a monthly REKO Ring to connect local food producers with local consumers. In September 2025, Common Knowledge Edinburgh worked with Local Abundance to present the Health and Food Festival, which featured talks and vendor stalls by local food suppliers and alternative health practitioners. UK Column’s Charles Malet made the journey up to Edinburgh to attend the festival and give an informative invited talk about the larger governmental and globalist agenda at play that works against UK farmers. Richard was then moved to organise Common Knowledge Edinburgh’s ‘You Can Do It’ conference, which took place in February 2026. The purpose of the conference was to “hear the experiences of local people who decided they would act on their concerns, took the initiative to provide a solution, inspired others to join them, and are now achieving the results of which they dreamed”. It featured talks from those who chose to take new directions in farming, medicine, education, and politics. Diane gave an invited talk entitled ‘Alternative Media for Journalism with Integrity’.Join Richard and Diane for their inspirational, positive, and motivational conversation on what it means for each of us to do something, however small, if we don’t like the way the world is going, and how it can be done. You can do it!The UK Column team is delighted to have developed this special collaboration with Common Knowledge Edinburgh, and they hope it will continue into the future.Common Knowledge Edinburgh can be found on Substack, X, Rumble, and YouTube. The Local Abundance REKO Ring is on Facebook.
