I seem to have Covid again, because the symptoms are exactly the same as six months agowhen I caught it in hospital. They confirmed by testing that it was Covid at that time. The symptoms for me are quite different from flu or cold. It is mostly just a large amount of phlegm in the chest, along with fatigue and body aches. Also, pain deep in the chest when coughing so I avoid doing that if I can. I'm mostly sleeping and staying in.

I did some research: It appears that acquired immunity even against the same strain is not necessarily permanent. There is also a new strain going around called JN.1.

I am still sending monthly donations (those that want it) and cards to each prisoner. Just no books or letters because of the bans. I sent nothing in December so I'll have to catch up somehow. As far as I know, several bans on me have now expired (that is to say, they are past the date of review. Two others might expire in February, at least I shall assume so.

Just a reminder that donations can be made directly to Ash on https://www.gov.uk/send-prisoner-money. Let me know if you need his DOB.

Just a reminder that in the UK there is a statutory requirement for banks to provide basic bank accounts. My understanding is that these are harder for the bank to close, particularly in the case of free speech or political views: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/basic-bank-accounts

Yerbury's party will fail because he can't think except in talking points and fallacies - try engaging him in a discussion on almost anything and that's what you will receive, a lecture, usually unrelated to some point you raised.

Other kinds of people I cannot stand:

A person who invites one to a conversation and then leave one stranded waiting for a response to messages that never comes.

A person who organizes social meetups but whose main conversational strategy is inspired by their streak of sadism, namely gratuitously insulting and abusing his interlocutor in order to get some sort of amusing response out of them. Then lecturing them that they need to come along and "meet new friends" when they lose interest in dealing with him.

My only sm is Telegram and the news channels I follow are: Infolink, Information Liberation, Justice Report. The only commentary I follow are Bologh, Striker, Conte, Daily Rake, I follow a couple of foreign prisoner support channels. That's it.

I know, incurious and parochial people would be bemused and confused by this and I do not care.

I never look at mainstream media.

Most of my waking time is spent on my studies.

Have a look at this example of what our enemies do. Basically, if you attend a NON-VETTED nationalist meetup you will be doxxed. https://novaramedia.com/2023/01/10/the-anti-fascist-research-group-exposing-britains-neo-nazi-threat/

It appears that my payments this month to prisoners were all blocked by HMPPS (the gov.uk online payment service). I received a similar e-mail in regards to Allchurch, Costello, Kearney and Patten-Walsh (pasted below).

I received no notification either way for Sharp and no money was from my bank account, so that one didn't go through either.

I didn't expect this so I wasn't using Givesendgo to pay them. However, I have put one through for Sharp family anyway.

I'm not sure what is the best way to proceed except use Givesendgo accounts where they exist, which I shall attend to shortly.

^^^ The salient thing is that I haven't broken any law, therefore such a move clearly against me is, to my lay understanding, illegal. Therefore, I don't have anything to worry about except the inconvenience until this is reversed.

And also note that it only seems to affect me. You, anonymous reader should still feel free to use the payment system to donate money to any prisoner.

"Prison safety and security." LOL

Drawing is very satisfying; it puts me in a good place. My efforts aren't good enough to show anyone yet, and my backlog of ideas still has to await better skill. I do know that impromptu portraiture and then portraiture from memory is attainable.

From what I know, on the rare occasions when a young person has a heart attack (i.e., an infarction, not inflammation of the muscle) or stroke, it is usually because of a congenital flaw in a blood vessel. That is, it would have happened anyway, and has nothing to do with working too hard. The human organism is designed for sustained, hard work.

Collet is yet to succeed in registering a political party despite several attempts. Therefore I can't see why Yerbury would succeed, particularly since, of the two, Mark is the smarter and more experienced.

A new restriction has been placed on Ash, which prohibits him from seeing his children for at least a year. Urgently looking for a prison solicitor. If anyone knows of a good solicitor please contact me! God bless

I have received a letter from Vincent. He expects to be extradited to France in two weeks.. He wants his lawyer to lodge an appeal but his lawyer doesn't want to do this [what sort of lawyer is that?!] He says that when he is in prison in France he will create two revisionist comic strips. He seems in good humour, or perhaps calm fatalism, It's hard to judge from the letter.

Just a reminder that the text file of prisoner's contact details has an appendix of a list of prisoners for whom we don't have enough details. I collected most of those names from newspaper and website articles on their cases. Please peruse that list and let me know if you have the prisoner number, prison or date of birth of anyone on that list.

Currently I have been experiencing difficulties in contacting or donating to the prisoners. I believe that that is because of the interference of CT with my and the prisoners' legal rights, and therefore it will eventually end. I'm not enough of a law expert to engage these people but I'm certain that such harassment eventually will end because we are right. In the meantime there is nothing to prevent you, anonymous reader, from contacting and donating to our prisoners.

I have now sent Vincent three books on comic strip creation as well as one graphic story by one of my favourite artists.
