The moment you fully comprehend that there’s no scientific evidence for the existence of any virus. That illnesses misattributed to non-existent viruses are not contagious. You realise, with a rush of true horror, what the vaccine industry is about. It’s THE ruse which permits deeply unpleasant ...

The simple act of sprinkling salt into your morning glass of water can make a big impact.

Cortisol is highest at 8:00 AM, and sodium is excellent for lowering cortisol, so salt is a great tool for a stress-free day.

Himalayan sea salt is a great option, or try Baja Gold salt if you’re prone to high blood pressure.

And for an extra health boost, try adding fresh-squeezed organic lemon juice to your glass!

As Strandpublishuk editor I’m so looking forward to supporting my dear friend and our most prolific screenwriter and author Christopher Chance with his promotion of BENEATH THE POPPY FIELDS at a book signing on 8th & 15th November in Chapel Gym, Corby. It’s his local gym and Christopher is a firm favourite and their oldest member at 85 this November! Fingers crossed for sunshine and a good turn out on both days☀️🤞

In 1937, George Orwell was shot in the neck by a sniper during the Spanish Civil War.
The bullet missed his artery by millimeters. He fell to the ground choking, certain he was about to die, not for fame or country, but for truth.

That moment changed him forever. He had gone to Spain to fight fascism, but what he found was betrayal, censorship, and propaganda on both sides. He watched men lie in the name of justice, and he saw newspapers twist facts until the truth disappeared.

When he recovered, he carried the scar for the rest of his life, a thin reminder of how fragile both the human body and honesty could be.

That wound bled into every word he ever wrote.
In Animal Farm, he exposed how revolutions rot into tyranny.
In 1984, he gave the world its greatest warning: that truth itself could be destroyed, rewritten, and replaced by the voices of power.

But Orwell’s brilliance wasn’t born in theory or politics. It was born in poverty and pain. He scrubbed floors in Paris kitchens. He lived among coal miners in northern England to understand the working class. He wandered through the alleys of London, invisible, hungry, watching how society treated the forgotten.

He believed that writing was not a career; it was a moral act. “In a time of deceit,” he said, “telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”

When he wrote 1984, he was dying of tuberculosis, coughing blood as he typed through sleepless nights on a cold island in Scotland. Friends begged him to rest, but he wouldn’t. He said he had one more truth to tell before his voice gave out.

And when it finally did, he left behind more than novels. He left a mirror, one that still reflects our world too clearly.

George Orwell didn’t just write about oppression.
He lived through it.
He survived it.
And with the scar on his neck and fire in his words, he made sure we could never say we weren’t warned.

Carabanchel
This is a true story of survival in what was arguably the most sinister prison in Europe: the Carabanchel. Christopher Chance was the last Brit to be shackled and hauled out of that infamous Spanish hellhole before it closed its gates on decades of disgraceful cruelty. Along with the rest of the remaining inmates, he was transferred to another prison when the authorities slid back the bolts for the last time.

Chance’s story begins on the day he entered the jail and encountered the innate racism of the prison staff and inmates. Intimidation and constant bullying by Spanish gypsies, gangsters and he**in dealers forced ‘Chancer’ to become ultra-violent in his quest to live unmolested during his stay, while psychotic prison officers peddled booze and drugs, and performed barbaric acts on inmates.

In “Carabanchel”, Chance tells how he forged a band of international brothers from the chaotic human rubble in order to survive. Men from all around the world joined forces against their common aggressors, the Spanish inmates.

Chancer’s gang became invincible in this cauldron of hate and fear; their numbers were few but their strength lay in the loyalty and respect they had for each other, combined with their courage and fighting skills. Chance highlights the fact that much international crime is planned in prison and strong business friendships are forged which last for years. This harrowing tale is prison writing in the raw.

The action remains unremittingly confined to the brutal, ugly and corrupt environment of the Carabanchel and rubs the noses of the politically correct brigade in the filth of the real world.
