Ben Emlyn-Jones at the Essex UFO and Paranormal Group

 

I will be speaking at the Essex UFO and Paranormal Group on Friday the 6th of February 2026. My talk will be entitled: Exopolitics- the Path to UFO Disclosure. Exopolitics has been called the "militant wing" of UFOlogy, but perhaps it is just UFOlogists who have made up their mind. Maybe history is about to prove them right. Is Disclosure about to happen? The venue is the Balmoral Community Centre, Salisbury Ave, Westcliff-on-Sea, Essex, SS0-7AU. The event starts at 7 PM and it costs £5 to £10. See here for details: https://essexufo.group/events.

Missing Stars Approved

 

See here for essential background: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2025/08/stars-that-come-and-go.html.
Something has just happened that is very good, but very strange. I never would have expected it. The scientific papers Dr Beatriz Villarroel, Dr Stephen Bruehl et al have written about the missing stars on historical telescope plates have been published in two mainstream scientific journals; Nature's Scientific Reports and the Astronomical Society of the Pacific's "good astronomy" journal. As I explain in the background link above, the conclusion of these papers is extraordinary. They say that there used to be objects close to the earth that are not stars or planets; and the data was collected before 1957 when Sputnik 1 was launched, so predating the human exploration of space... officially any way. I had assumed these papers would be immediately turned into editor's toilet paper and that Beatriz and her team would be pilloried as evil heretics, but no! The journals approved them. Even that famous YouTube skeptic and bane of Michael Shrimpton, Sabine Hossenfelder has been forced to concede that this study has substance, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Gt-w38GeNc. The fact that the papers are out, in every university library and office, means that the most stringent skeppers on earth, making all the desperate attempts, using the methods I've explained in my skeptic posts, have failed to explain the anomalies as known phenomena. What are they instead? I don't know, but I do know that now this glass ceiling has been broken a precedent has been set with extraordinary possibilities. Talking about aliens is now no longer fringe. We will hopefully now see BBC documentaries with Neil deGrasse Tyson and Seth Shostak with embarrassed smiles trying to persuade us that they have said all along that they believed in aliens... honest, guv! As for Prof. Brian Cox, his ego will not let him apologize. He will probably retire and move to a desert island. Should I bump into him as he's rushing to the airport with sunglasses and upturned collar, I'll take delight in reminding him of all the times he called us "nobbers"!

Ex Machina

 

I have come across an interesting film called Ex Machina which is thematically very similar to Her, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2025/06/her.html. It is the directional debut for somebody better known as a novelist and screenwriter, Alex Garland. It has an international cast and is also penned by Garland. The story is about a nerdy and solitary young man called Caleb who works as a coder for a major IT company. He wins a prize in the staff raffle which is a week staying with the company's CEO at his luxury retreat in a remote location. The place is beautiful, filmed in rural Norway. The CEO is a furtive and shifty individual, somewhat older than Caleb. He is also a functional alcoholic. He hints to Caleb that there's some big secret going on in his laboratory, but he won't reveal the secret until Caleb signs numerous non-disclosure agreements. Caleb eventually capitulates and finds out that the CEO is working on humanoid robots with artificial intelligence and wants Caleb to help him find out if these robots have consciousness. This is a subject I've delved into many times and I suspect it is impossible to know because one cannot tell the difference between real consciousness and a very good mimic of consciousness unless you are the entity being studied; in which case you will know with one hundred percent certainty. This is the central message of Her and also Ex Machina. There is a major difference in the conclusion though, along with numerous plot twists and double-twists. It explores the possibility of independent will in artificial intelligence and the ability to deceive others. It's well worth watching. At the moment it is on YouTube. This upload is seven years old so I assume it's authorized, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQF8DmC4XK8.

Posie Parker in Oxford

 

I was in Oxford city centre yesterday filming a HPANWO TV comedy video, see: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2025/10/charlie-vitch-comes-to-oxford.html, when I happened to see "Posie Parker" aka Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull. I hadn't planned this encounter and didn't know she was coming to the city. I just happened to be there by luck. She was doing one of her textbook "let women speak" street demonstrations. As a result she inadvertently played a minor role in my video.
You can watch her own recording here.
Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-T-FZ2ZEF7s.
Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eitr3vCQZWA.
Part 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbLXZ5w0RSk.
As you can see in both our records, Kellie and her supporters were pinned up against a wall by St Ebbes Street and on the other side of Queen Street the counter-protesters gathered, which were the usual leftwing bunch; same as here: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2025/03/oxford-anti-racist-protest.html. The two sides traded insults and the leftists tried to shout Kellie and the other speakers down. The "adult human female" demonstrators carried on regardless. This demonstration comes at a crucial time. The Supreme Court has just ruled in their favour in Scotland and the campaign goes on to have the same definition for the whole UK, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2025/04/a-woman-is.html. I despise the leftist hecklers and their childish obsession with forcing people who disagree with them into silence. At the same time I feel very uncomfortable with the TERF's. Among Keen-Minshull's supporters yesterday were people flying the Union Flag, St George's Cross and other patriotic symbols. At Carfax was a gathering of "Oxfordshire Patriots", giving me a chance to incorporate them into my comedy too; however I was dismayed to see them there if, presumably, they were there to support Posie Parker. I don't think this holiday romance between dissident patriots and the TERF's is going to end well. How come so many people, most of whom should should know better, have somehow forgotten what the F stands for in TERF? I actually agree with a lot of what Keen-Minshull says, especially her points related to children; but we must never forget she is still just one shift in the political landscape away from going back to being a bitter enemy of all white males. At some point in the future this coalition of convenience is going to break down and the battle lines will return to their historical and very simple formation. I'm going to prepare for that day now, not put on an act now to score a few extra strategy points.

Mystery Soda Machine Vanishes

 

See here for essential background: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2015/08/mystery-soda-machine.html.
The famous mystery drinks dispenser has disappeared. This enigmatic landmark in Seattle, USA has been enchanting tourists and locals since the late 1990's. There were endless theories about how it got there and who keeps it going, but never an answer. Then one day in 2018 the sun rose on the Capitol Hill district to find the machine gone. This happened when there was some essential maintenance work being done with the pavement on which it stands; however the menders claim they are not responsible for its disappearance. Broadway Locksmiths told the media that the machine had to be removed "with care and on purpose" because of the work going on with the pavement; however they did not state that they themselves did it. As I explain in the background link above, the locksmith has always denied any involvement with the machine. Fans of the machine were obviously very sad and there were some claims on social media that it had reappeared elsewhere; some were humourous, showing the machine standing at a number of famous tourist spots like Las Vegas and Machu Pichu. Source: https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/where-did-it-go-capitol-hills-mystery-soda-machine-disappears. There is a video by somebody called "Amara In Seattle" in which she finds another machine that is very similar. It is of a more modern design, but it has the same 75 cent universal price and some "?MYSTERY?" buttons. It appears to be in somebody's garden. Is it a replacement that will at some point in the future be installed at the crossroads in the same place as the old one? See: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHwGA1kYsm8. There is only one clue, a sticker put on the railings behind the bare spot where the machine once stood saying: "Went for a walk". So the mystery endures even though the source of it does not. Will it return? If so why and how? If it doesn't, the same questions apply. Maybe this whole saga is indicative of changes going on in the structure of the universe, a bit like the Mandela effect. It makes me wonder, how many other changes are waiting in the wings and how extreme will they be?

Hostages Freed

 

I'm pleased to report that the last of the living hostages kidnapped by Hamas during the October 7th massacre have been set free. They were taken from the border post between Israel and Gaza to a medical facility and then reunited with their families. The last two years have been nightmarish for them all. Many who were taken have not survived and four dead bodies have also been repatriated. The experience of being held in an underground dungeon by Hamas, although awful for everybody, varied in its severity. Matan Angrest, a man of twenty-two who had been at the Be'eri festival, reports constant torture. He was beaten to the point of unconsciousness regularly and deprived of food and water. He was told by his captors, falsely, that his family were all dead and that Israel was being invaded and conquered. Conversely, one of the Nova festival organizers, Elkana Bohbot, was treated comparatively well. He was allowed to watch TV and shown pictures of his family and messages from them. He played cards and board games with his captors and they even let him help with the cooking. Some of them spoke Hebrew to him to help him communicate. The end to the hostage crisis was made in return for Israel releasing two thousand Palestinian prisoners and detainees. The horrific bombardment of Gaza has ceased and Israel says it is committed to a phased withdrawal of its troops from Gaza. This new armistice was mediated by the United States with the help of several other Middle Eastern nations. It was first drafted back in May last year, but has only just been implemented. Already it looks like it might break down. Some of those kidnapped on October the 7th are still missing and Hamas claim they were killed in Israel attacks, but they cannot produce the bodies. Israel has also been accused of illegal military action after the hostage releases in violation of their initial demands. Source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvgqx7ygq41o. I hope this ceasefire works for the sake of all the people who have suffered in this conflict. Even if these problems are solved there are others that won't go away so easily. The questions raised by Efrat Fenigson remain unanswered, see: https://www.efrat.blog/p/oct-7-did-they-know-and-allow-it and the background links below. I'm also very concerned that Tony Blair has been nominated to lead a provisional post-war government in Gaza. I fear for the people there. Whatever hell they have been put through during the last twenty-four months it will pale into insignificance compared to whatever that demon plans to do to them. Source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3drmk95xlzo. Luckily there are powerful voices opposed to Blair's appointment, including Hamas itself, which remains one of the negotiating parties. As I've said before, the only hope for long-term stability in the region is for the international meddlers who fuel the conflict, on both sides, with money and guns to release their grip and leave the people of the Holy Land to their own devices.
