Merkel says fall of Wall proves 'dreams can come true'


“ … Here is another one. A change in what Human nature will allow for government. "Careful, Kryon, don't talk about politics. You'll get in trouble." I won't get in trouble. I'm going to tell you to watch for leadership that cares about you. "You mean politics is going to change?" It already has. It's beginning. Watch for it. You're going to see a total phase-out of old energy dictatorships eventually. The potential is that you're going to see that before 2013. They're going to fall over, you know, because the energy of the population will not sustain an old energy leader ..."

… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …

Hunger Rises in Great Britain Amid Cuts in Social Services

Clay Cross, Britain. The social consequences of austerity economics have been most visible in Europe’s southern periphery. In the United Kingdom, the coalition government has brought in sharp cutbacks in welfare state provision in the name of dealing with the financial crisis.

Their impact is becoming increasingly visible. A survey by the Netmums website found that one in five mothers in the United Kingdom regularly goes without meals to feed their children. Thousands now rely on charities and emergency food banks to feed themselves and their families.

In the last 12 months the Trussell Trust, the largest operator of food banks in the United Kingdom, says it has fed 350,000 people, 100,000 more than anticipated and an increase of 170 percent over the previous year.

People go to food banks for many different reasons. Some are underemployed, others are victims of domestic violence. Some have fallen victim to loan sharks who prey on the poor by offering them loans at exorbitant rates of interest.

But most are unemployed, and have had their benefits removed or cut as a result of the government’s ideologically-driven onslaught on people it regards as work-shy “scroungers.”

All these factors have fueled what the Trussell Trust calls an “epidemic” of hunger that is becoming increasingly visible in small and large towns across the United Kingdom.

Clay Cross is a small town of 5,000 in the hilly countryside of north Derbyshire that used to be a center of the British coal-mining industry. Like many former mining towns and villages in the area, Clay Cross has fallen on hard times since the closure of its local pit back in the 1980s, but things have recently begun to get a lot harder.

One evening I visited the local Trussell Trust food bank in Saint Bartholomew’s Church on the high street.

Inside, volunteers were setting out some of the two tons of food donated by shoppers during a two-day collection across various Tesco supermarkets the previous weekend.

The food bank only opened last August, but since then it has fed 1,147 people, and is opening up other food banks in the surrounding area.

One of its clients was David, who now works as a volunteer for the Trust. A former taxi driver, David worked as a full-time carer for his disabled wife for 12 years.

But when she died last year, he lost his carer’s salary and had no income for seven weeks while he waited for unemployment benefit. During that time, he says, he lived on three carrier bags of food that he was given by the food bank.

Delays in benefits payments and benefits sanctions are the most common reason for people coming to the food bank, and many of those who do, find the experience deeply shameful and humiliating.

“Some people wander in and crack on,” says project coordinator James Herbert. “Other people stick their heads in, see there are a lot of people, and go away, and we never see them again.”

Herbert and his team are keen to overcome these reservations and to welcome people who turn up at these drop-ins, but he is also indignant that such services are required: “It’s reprehensible. Ultimately people should be ashamed of themselves. Local and national government should be ashamed of themselves, to leave people in a situation where they have to rely on charity to feed their families.”

Most service users come to the Trust through referrals from charities or government agencies, with vouchers that enable them to be collect food three or four times only. Bernard (not his real name) has just come to the center on referral from his local job center for the first time.

A 38-year-old volunteer mentor working with young offenders, Bernard was on unemployment benefit until two weeks ago, when his benefit was cut because he didn’t apply for one of the jobs offered by his local job center.

Bernard insists that he never received the offer, and has appealed against the decision, which may result in a 29 pounds a week hardship fund, or the full restoration of his 71 pounds benefits. If not, he will get nothing for another six weeks, even though he lives in a flat without gas, electricity, or food.

I asked him what he thought of government “scrounger” rhetoric. “If I’m a scrounger then I’m a scrounger, but at the end of the day, what else am I going to do? Am I going to go and rob to survive? In the 21st century, in one of the most advanced nations in the world, and people have got to come to food banks, something is not quite right is it?”

Colin Hampton, coordinator of the Derbyshire Unemployed Workers Center, agrees.

“The situation is worse now than it ever was in the 1980s. People are coming to us asking for food in desperate situations, and we refer them to food banks. But while we appreciate that people are trying to help, our biggest worry is that unless we express our outrage, this will become the norm, and people need to ask why this is happening.”

British Prime Minister David Cameron has praised the Trussell Trust’s work, but food banks are a direct consequence of government policies that are designed to force people off benefits, regardless of consequences. Labor MP Peter Hain recently accused the government of “terrorizing” the unemployed in his constituency by forcing them to choose between starvation and low-paid work.

The 19th-century Poor Law system once had a similarly punitive and deterrent attitude towards the industrial poor. Today, hunger is a consequence of manufactured poverty in the seventh largest economy in the world, and the poor are once again being victimized and punished.

In these circumstances, food banks may become a convenient substitute for statutory assistance, enabling the political heirs of the late Margaret Thatcher to strip still further at the welfare safety net, in the knowledge that people may be hungry, but at least they won’t be starving.
