Diary Blog, 31 March 2024, with thoughts about Europe’s falling birth-rate

[Tatiana Yablonskaya, Morning]

Talking point

As noted on yesterday’s blog, what you get with Matthew Parris is the logical but spiritually-empty argument of the culturally-unattached, atheistic, metro-affluent gay, which Parris is.

If you had to characterize Matthew Parris symbolically, it would be a minimalist painting of an empty room. Something like this:

Very logical, very clear, but not very comfortable or pleasant.

Parris is not always wrong in what he writes, but often is, as in his assisted-dying comment.

Having said that, the ageing of the population is a challenge. We see that the birth-rate in Europe and across Eurasia is dropping to, has already dropped to, below replacement level.

The birth-rate is falling in the European-populated countries (my main concern), but also in almost every other part of the world, except Africa and a few parts of the Middle East, Central Asia and South Asia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_fertility_rate

The facile, pro-immigration argument is that “Europe is not having enough children to continue its life and economy— bring in immigrants from… [wherever, but Africa and parts of Asia are usually mentioned]”.

That is like saying “the pilot and co-pilot have both had fatal heart attacks— get the cabin crew to fly the plane.” It just does not work, and cannot work.

It may be that via a concatenation of circumstances, the European peoples will quite soon have to start again, to build a new foundation for social and economic life.

It comes to mind that the ultimate reason for the falling birth-rate almost worldwide may be because so many human spirits were, in the past century or more, rushing into incarnation in order to experience the high-water mark of the industrial culture of the 20th/21st centuries. That rush is now at an end. The fact that it is mainly the Africans who are still being born in large numbers may reflect the fact (if it is a fact) that they were last in incarnation very long ago. Speculative, admittedly.

No wonder, then, that the new breed of “Labour” political drones and freeloaders think first of all about how to increase their own physical security. They are afraid of the people they claim to represent. Rachel Reeves. Liz Kendall. Others. All the Labour Friends of Israel MPs.

Good point. Matthew Parris: useless as a Foreign Office trainee, useless as a Conservative Party office bod, useless as Mrs Thatcher’s correspondence secretary, useless as an MP…

I have had the misfortune to meet many men within the prison system, like the suspected Beckenham attacker, Rakeem Thomas. Young black or ethnic men who have no respect for British values, the police, or white people in general, especially women. They do not fear arrest or prison. While in prison, many continue their criminal activities by selling smuggled drugs, particularly spice.

These men pose a threat to our society, and in London, Mayor Sadiq Khan, a weak and ineffectual man, allows them to wreak havoc, destroying lives and terrorising communities. In 2018, he wanted to reduce stop and search measures. David Lammy often criticises this approach as disproportionately targeting black people, despite higher rates of violent crime committed by Afro-Caribbean and other ethnic groups in London.

Rakeem Thomas pulled a Rambo-style knife on a ticket inspector in December last year, was sentenced to 6 months, and was back on the streets only 12 weeks later. Did he learn? Did the system work for him? Was probation effective in monitoring and protecting those around him? No, shortly after his release, he is arrested for allegedly trying to kill someone. What did they do, ask him the time or look at him in the wrong way?

There are hundreds like him are in prison, awaiting release to resume their destructive behaviour.

Hundreds more free and prowling our streets. Labour proposes leniency for such individuals, avoiding even basic searches. Having lived amongst these people, I can tell you that they are vile, ruthless and dangerous individuals. They are beyond rehabilitation and should be locked up for life. Yet, under Labour’s policies, they seem to be heading, unchecked and protected, to a town near you.

The United Kingdom is turning into a Ununited Hell!

That is why the old South Africa had “pass laws”, to stop what they called “skollies” from wandering around and committing crimes and trouble generally. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pass_law.

Iain Duncan Smith says if we vote for Reform, it’s like giving Labour a big win. I like IDS, but he’s telling us something we already know.

The truth is, the Conservatives have left us no choice. They didn’t fight for us or Brexit. They barely got us through COVID in one piece and just gave up on everything we fought for. They should have replaced Sunak with someone who’d really battle for our country. Now, we’re stuck.

If we vote for Reform, it helps Labour destroy Brexit and the country. But staying with the Tories feels like they’ve already given up, and with the rabble we have running it now, we won’t see the UK we all want anyway.

This country is falling apart, the streets are like the wild west, and it’s open season for illegals to come here and bleed the country dry and commit the most horrific crimes.

We know that under Labour, this is just going to get worse; they will pander to them and welcome them with open arms. You may as well burn every Union Jack because the country will be finished. Starmer may be the leader but the hard Left are waiting in the wings, ready to take over.

So, what do we do? It’s a horrible feeling, an unbelievable nightmare that seems absurd given the majority that Boris won. Yes, a vote for Reform is a vote for hope and what we believe in, but it’s giving us Labour.

They cannot win, the Tories, in the state they are in, cannot win. WE cannot win, whatever we do. We will be stuck with a huge majority Labour government for 10-15 years, the UK won’t survive the absurd wokery, anti Britishness and open arms to the masses.

What kind of hell are we subjecting our children and grandchildren to? The simple matter is the Tories have let us down, and now it seems like our Brexit dreams are just slipping away because they didn’t stand strong when it mattered.

There’s still time; there could be a plot twist coming just around the corner, but it will need the true right of the Conservatives to look themselves in the mirror and remember the people of the United Kingdom, who and what we are, what we fought for, and what we expected of them. It will need a handful of actual patriots to stand tall and reunite the whole right of UK politics before it’s too late. If that doesn’t happen, then Brexit and all the freedoms and hope we fought for are dead, regardless of who we vote for. How did they let this happen to our once beautiful country?

Well, I agree with much of that. Not all. For one thing, Dunce Duncan Smith should be put on trial and receive the just measure of his deeds. Also, Starmer is just a puppet of the Israel lobby; at best useless, at worst a soon-to-be “elected” tyrant.

I now see quite a few tweets from people whose guess is closer to my own, i.e. as few as 50 MPS.

I doubt that most of that relates to the Gaza slaughter as such; probably more to do with the high Israeli (Jewish) losses in the field, and the fact that much of the world now thoroughly despises Israel and its population. That, and the fact that, after nearly six months, the Israelis have still not achieved anything that looks like “victory”, despite their overwhelming firepower, their devastation of urban and residential areas, and the death toll visited upon tens of thousands of Gazan civilians.

The population of the Gaza Strip has lost more than 97% of its daily average water consumption, which previously did not meet the WHO recommended minimum. Now the average resident of the Gaza Strip no longer consumes 3 liters of water per day, as it was in November last year, but just under a liter, which is more than 7 times lower.”

The Kiev regime can mount attacks on bridges, railway lines, or even concert venues (using proxy terrorists) but, on the other side, Russian forces are destroying what is left of the Ukraine’s electricity generation and supply system, as well as slowly but surely grinding down the ever more sparse Kiev-regime forces in the field.

Russian forces continue to advance on the Ukrainian battlefield despite muddy roads , former CIA analyst Larry Johnson said in an interview with the YouTube channel “Dialogue Works”.

If you look at what is happening right now, I think the offensive has already started. They are making progress, he said. Russian forces continue offensive operations, even despite muddy roads, while Western tanks in Ukraine get stuck in the mud. Ukrainian troops are constantly withdrawing, Johnson concluded.

Hundreds of kilometers of fortifications and several defense rings were built around Kyiv.

“In a year this is about 1000 km of fortifications, three rings of defense of Kyiv. The Chernobyl direction has been greatly strengthened. Long-term concrete fortifications are already being built. We did everything to ensure that there were no options for a sudden enemy entry,” said Ground Forces Commander Alexander Pavlyuk.

If Kiev becomes a bastion, almost impenetrable, the advancing Russian forces may either bypass the region, or simply reduce Kiev by means of air power.

Whatever the outcome of that, it seems clear that the Kiev-regime forces are expecting a large-scale Russian advance in 2024-2025, an advance which they have, and will have, no means of countering.

A dispute over a 97-year-old woman feeding birds in her back garden has escalated with the ‘bullying’ council now threatening a £2,500 fine or even court action to force her and her son out of their privately-owned home.

Retired music teacher Anne Seago enjoys the simple pleasure of watching from her conservatory as sparrows and robins feed off seeds on her bird table.

A complaint from a neighbour that she was attracting pigeons and seagulls prompted the council to issue a ‘written warning’ last November and threaten a £100 fine if the ‘anti-social behaviour’ doesn’t cease.

Now, amid claims the birds are still being fed, Fylde Council has issued her son Alan, 77, who lives with her, with another written warning. This time he is being threatened with a Community Protection Notice (CPN) and a potential fine of £2,500 for ‘non-compliance’ if the ‘anti-social behaviour’ doesn’t stop immediately.

And in a further threat the council’s environmental health department has warned it could take legal action for a ‘Civil Injunction and/or a Premises Closure Order’, that if granted by magistrates could ultimately force them out of their house in Staining, near Blackpool, for up to three months.

The officers even instructed the Seagos to take down the ‘I love’ birds notice on their window (above) in case it upset the neighbour.

Poland’s Prime Minister, Donald Tusk said: ‘I don’t want to scare anyone, but war is no longer a concept from the past. It’s real and it started over two years ago. We are living in the most critical moment since the end of the Second World War‘.”

[Daily Mail]

Tusk is a brainless drone, a complete puppet of NWO/ZOG. A year ago, he was predicting that Ukraine (the Kiev regime) would “defeat Russia“, and then go on to join both NATO and the EU. How is that going?…

As for war with Russia, certain powerful groups or cabals in the West are really pushing for it; the drift to war is almost entirely being driven by those groups, not by Putin, not by Russia.

An almighty war would be disastrous for Europe and the European peoples. Maybe that is why the “usual suspects” and their puppets keep pushing for one…

Despite 2 years of false reporting by the UK/US msm, the truth is slowly dawning: Russia must and will win this war. Ukraine (the Kiev regime) is a fake state and a failed state, and is fast running out of arms, ammunition and, most of all, soldiers.

Another System-party clown…

People say that it does not matter what a person’s private life, sexuality, even beliefs etc may be. Only their specific ideas matter. Easy to agree with that, superficially, but it is facile in more ways than one.

Matthew Parris is typical, in a way, of the faux-“caring sharing” “Cameroon” fake “Conservatism” of the past few decades; post-Thatcherite, espousing a neo-Spartanism for the poorer part of society, and a freedom-from-responsibility ethos for the affluent and wealthy, all disguised by the said fake “caring”.

Often, though certainly not always, publicized in newspapers, and in magazines such as the Spectator, and often by affluent metropolitan gays such as Parris himself.

That kind of “Conservatism” is the polar opposite of the paternalism which characterized at least part of the old and now long-gone Conservatism.

Mrs Thatcher may now be thought of as the standard-bearer of the new pseudo-libertarian “Conservatism”, but she herself, in office, was more a product of the old order, and vacillated between the two camps, for all her expressed adherence to Hayek etc.

The tweeter cited above is right. Parris is shown, not for the first time, as someone who basically knows the price of everything and the value of nothing. His notorious column about “left-behind” areas, such as Clacton, set the tone.

Not that I disagree with all that Parris has written, such as when his column opined thus: “In May 2021, Parris called for the removal of ethnic minority status from Gypsy, Roma and Travellers, describing them “not a race, but a doomed mindset” and called for “a gradual but relentless squeeze on anyone who tries without permission to park their home on public property or the property of others” [Wikipedia].

I agree with those words, though the Irish “travellers” are not the same actual group as the various kinds of ethnic “gypsies” in the UK and mainland Europe (etc). “Travellers” of Irish origin are not an ethnic minority; the Roma, Sinta etc are.

I also agree with his view of sinister clown “Boris” Johnson: “In June 2020 Parris wrote an excoriating article on Boris Johnson saying, “He never had any judgment or strategic vision. Mr Johnson was only ever a shallow opportunist with a minor talent to amuse” [Wikipedia].

What I find disturbing about, not only Parris but also that whole strain of post-Thatcherite “Conservatism”, discounting its pseudo-“caring” camouflage, is its un-Christian, un-spiritual “throwing under a bus” of those (the old, sick, and poor) who cannot keep pace with his preferred metro-affluent new order. It reminds me, more than anything, of Stalinism, in terms of its arrogant brutality. There is something dystopian about it all. Parris himself is an atheist.

This is the ‘racially aggravated’ banner they are trying to lock me away for, potentially for up to 7 years for holding it up outside RAF SCAMPTON The officer in charge has rebailed us while we await a CPS decision listen to her she HASN’T got a clue EVERY FACE on that banner came here as a refugee and went on to commit the most serious sexual offences against women and children You may try lock me up but you will NEVER STOP ME telling the public REFUGEE’S ARE RAPING HERE.”

Talking point

Historical facts not much noted by the general public include the largely Jewish character of the second, Marxist-Leninist, “Russian” Revolution (coup d’etat) of 1917, the largely Jewish nature of the Soviet security apparat from 1917 through to the late 1940s, but also the pushback against that in the Soviet Union itself, starting in the Second World War but particularly from time of the postwar purge of 1948-49 and on to 1953-1956, after the death of Stalin.

The rating of the German far right has risen again to 20%.

In January-February, a series of thousands of demonstrations against right-wing radicalism swept across Germany. Against this background, the ratings of the far-right Alternative for Germany fell below 20% for the first time in eight months.

Now it has begun to grow again and for the first time in a month and a half has returned to the 20% mark. These are the results of a survey by the sociological institute INSA.”

Germans, particularly modern Germans, most of them, are conformist. The hostile demonstrations, backed by Germany’s NWO/ZOG state apparat, were enough to dent AfD support, but only temporarily.

The toddler’s frail, malnourished body scarcely twitched as she lay helplessly in an incubator chamber in the already-decimated Gaza hospital. 

Leila Jeneid, one of countless children who have passed through the doors of Kamal Adwan Hospital, in the north of the Gaza Strip, has suffered as a result of starvation and dehydration. 

In a video clip, Leila can be seen quickly breathing in and out, desperate for a breath of fresh air in one of the 12 remaining hospitals in the besieged enclave. 

The outline of her ribs, along with all her other bones, are visible through her pallid, paper-thin skin, which sits in stark contrast to the blue blanket underneath her that provides little comfort to the toddler, who is not old enough to comprehend the hellish suffering she is undergoing. 

Her jaw is slack as she lies on her back inside the plastic cage of the incubator, barely able to move her arms and legs. 

She can’t keep her eyes open as medics at the hospital, which UN official Andrea De Domenico this week said was receiving ‘about 15 malnourished children a day and is struggling to maintain services,’ run tests to understand how to help her. 

But it’s food, water and proper rest she needs, all things that the whole enclave is desperately in need of, and all things that Israel has been accused of deliberately withholding from civilians in its bitter war against Hamas, which – according to a top UN human rights official – could amount to a war crime.”

Israel, and the Jewish lobby outside Israel, can now shut up about various matters that they claim occurred during the Second World War.

The “usual suspects” constantly promote books, films etc about events and/or invented events that are said to have happened, in any event, over 80 years ago.

A father-of-five who was jailed and handed a £475,000 court bill after a dispute with his neighbours has been ordered to sell his home to pay for the huge sum. 

Mark Coates, 56, and wife Louise, 52, have been involved in a ‘bitter, aggressive and violent’ dispute with their neighbours Brian Greenwood, 69, and Janice Turner, 65, after moving in next door in the countryside near Hastings in 2015.

The row arose out of a disagreement over a fence between their homes on a quiet road in Robertsbridge, a court heard. The Coates family wanted to replace the structure with a brick wall but Mrs Taylor argued this would encroach on her land.”

[Daily Mail]

When I was at the Bar, I advised and appeared on several such cases in the County Court, both in London and the provinces. Almost all, in fact all, should have settled long before they got to court, long before any barristers were instructed.

I think that I can say that I, and other counsel in the cases known to me, did our best to achieve reasonable closure, but these are cases (often involving trivial amounts of land) where reason always seems to fly out out of the window.

In many cases, all Counsel, solicitors, and the judge in the matter, understand that the matters in question should settle before enormous costs are racked up but, often, the litigants are effectively willing to risk bringing down ruin on themselves for a chance of gaining a victory over their neighbours (with whom they will have to live —nearby— afterwards, after the case ends, whichever way it goes), unless one party sells up and moves (in which event…well, you get my point).

If you told someone to remortgage his house, take out equity of £50,000, £100,000 or more, then go to Las Vegas, and stake the entire amount, maybe in one spin, on red or black at the roulette table, the houseowner would call you crazy, but that is, often, exactly what he or she —often a couple— are willing to do in taking to the County Court (in some cases to the High Court) such cases.

I remember one case I had that was about a wedge-shaped piece of land running the length of a North London suburban garden; at one end it was only about an inch or so wide and, at the other, about a foot.

What can one say? Territorial feeling can be very powerful.

Private enterprise —properly regulated for honesty, health and safety, employee rights etc— should run most commerce and industry, but there are exceptions, among which are the main structures of the economy providing services to the whole people: water supply, large-scale energy, electricity generation and supply, roads, railways.

Very true. As for me [b.1956], my memories of even the late 1950s are few, but those of the 1960s, and up to the present year, are many. Speaking very broadly, I should say that the dividing line between the UK of 2024 and an earlier and different UK lies, arguably, somewhen between the Thatcher election victory of 1979 and the fall of socialism in or about 1989. Maybe 1979 as far as the UK is concerned, domestically. Too much to cover here in a few paragraphs, though.

American urban planning history

Interesting. Britain’s town planning problems and history differ from the above American examples, in part, though there are also similarities.

Town planning is very important, as is architecture, and not forgetting the trees, bushes, creepers, and flowers that elevate all of that.

“Reform UK” is just more “controlled opposition”, of course, and pro-Israel controlled opposition at that; still, its existence moves the “Overton window”, and that may be significant.

Not bad…

Group psychopathy.

Seems that H.M. Land Registry (or its ad agency) does not know the difference between “principle” and “principal“. On that basis, I am sceptical about anything they say they will do; it is not trivial, but a matter of both basic education and checking what is put before the public.

So much for the “military experts”, many of which (as in the case of the reporter David Axe) turn out to be not very expert at all: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Axe.

People of that sort write their rubbish for (in his case) Forbes magazine, the Daily Telegraph etc, and people believe it implicitly because it is in (albeit wrongfully) “trusted” publications, yet much of the content is unreliable. Read Axe’s Wikipedia entry. Not an ex-officer, not a military historian as such, but a writer of fiction primarily, at least until recently. His reporting on military matters has been patchy; refer to the Wikipedia entry.

There are many scribblers of that sort. He is far from being the only defaulter.

Of course, in relation to the Ukraine war, a significant factor in reportage is that most Western msm outlets are openly biased to an extent not seen since the 1940s. Anything seen in the msm relating to Ukraine, Russia, Putin etc has to be taken with a pinch of salt.

Future archaeologists may find such tanks buried under a hundred feet of chernozem, and wonder what they were.

Ukraine is falling to pieces. Having said that, many of Britain’s roads are now little better.

No doubt the pro-immigration, pro-multikulti drones (paid or amateur) will be flooding social media and the msm with “it was ever thus“, “London was always like that” etc. No. Not true. Not on this scale. 100x worse than it was in the 1970s, let alone 1950s.

PUTIN: EUROPE IS FEAR-MONGERING ABOUT ME TO FEED ZELENSKY “What they say about us, that we’re going to attack Europe after Ukraine, is complete nonsense. It’s intimidation of their own population solely to get money out of them. This is happening in the context of the fact that their economies are sinking, and standards of living are falling.” Source: @Sputnik

Is it untrue? I think not. Look at the UK. Gradually falling to pieces, and really not so slowly now.

A reference to those detained and convicted in relation to the recent terrorist attack in Moscow, who may spend their lives as of now in so-called “coffin” cells measuring 4-6 square metres; cells as tiny as 6 feet by 6.

It troubles me that the apparent terrorists were treated with such brutality, verging on sadism (to say the very least), on the day when they were detained; also, that the now-mandated conditions of detention seem worse than simply inhumane; as bad as, or worse, than those suffered by some prisoners in America’s “Supermax” prisons.

It is not that I think that the terrorists “deserve” better treatment but rather, that to treat even such individuals as they have been treated and continue to be treated, diminishes Russia itself, just as Guantanamo, Bagram, Abu Ghraib etc diminished, and continue to diminish, America.

The endgame will either be later this year or, perhaps more likely, after the national elections in the USA and UK, so sometime in 2025.

Seems to sum up everything about Britain in 2024: the environmental calamity, the nanny-state-ism, but also the historical ignorance. The lower Thames (in my meaning, the Thames below Reading, and especially below Kingston) was actually far dirtier in the past, in the 1950s, and back to the 1850s, perhaps even the 1750s.

Still, it is true that the rivers of England and Wales have been almost abandoned by this Government. Effluent and agricultural (farmers’) vandalistic fertilizer and other runoff going into the waters; and water itself being abstracted to service the needs of a UK population growing by 500,000-1,000,000 each year (by reason of mass migration and/or migration invasion).

https://morningstaronline.co.uk/article/it-worth-voting-labour

I do not agree with all of that article by ex-MP Emma Dent Coad in the rump Morning Star, above, but I do agree with some. Worth reading, though she fails to point out at least one possible reason why faux-radical Paul Mason got so angry when Labour’s Israel lobby was mentioned: Mason himself is partly Jewish, and also seems to be very pro-Israel, certainly opposing those he considers “antisemitic”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Mason_(journalist)#Early_life_and_education.

Looking ahead

It is all too easy to get distracted by the noise of the world, by short-term politics, by the daily news agenda, by personalities etc. We must try to look ahead, beyond the present year, the present decade; even beyond the present century and the present millennium.

I made such an attempt a few years ago, in 2019: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/26/the-tide-is-coming-in-reflections-on-the-possible-end-of-our-present-civilization-and-what-might-follow/.

My thesis, though complex in total, is simple in essence: humanity needs to make a quantum leap in evolution. In order for that to happen, there has to be a suitable demographic, ethnic basis. For me, that has to be the European peoples as a whole, particularly the Northern Europeans.

However, the European people(s) are not the end result, or the highest possible stage, but merely a base, also a transitional stage to higher evolution of consciousness.

It is a matter of concern that births and birth-rates to Europeans (including Russians and some other Slavs, the peoples of the far future) are falling quite fast now.

The above factor may be a sign of an impending civilizational catastrophe, but may also be more than merely a “crisis”; it may also be an opportunity for the European peoples to seize the world-historic initiative in terms of demographics. In other words, to start creating the basis of a basis for a future super-race, to put it that way; an advance on —and by— present-day humanity.

As seen in that tweet, even some Jews, indeed even some Zionist pro-Israel Jews, find many of the members of the Knesset (Israeli parliament) beyond the pale, so to speak. All the same, that ranting Jew politician was elected by Israeli voters. He is only expressing, in an extreme form, what is, at least arguably, the mainstream Israeli view in substance, though usually couched in a less extreme, less obviously violent way.

So far, the Israeli revenge attack on Gaza has killed 30,000-40,000 of the inhabitants, mostly women and children. The number grievously wounded must now be as many as 100,000.

Yet one sees Jews in the UK and elsewhere defend the Israeli actions (use of white phosphorus, use of famine as a weapon, flattening of huge areas of residential housing etc, use of drones and snipers killing families or lone unarmed civilians) as “defensive”, “justified“, “not genocide“, “not war crimes” etc. In effect, those (Jews and non-Jews) who support Israel, and who are tweeting support for Israel, are supporting those actions.

They are often the same ones whining and screaming that some child in London or wherever has chalked a swastika on a garage door or the side of a bus, and that that is a kind of “terrorism”, and that they feel “afraid” to go out of their houses. Pathetic.

As have many “Conservative” MPs. Britain’s immediate political problem in a nutshell— a special-interest group influences, and as good as controls, both main System parties.

Of course, I have no idea whether Paul Mason is or is not actually an agent of one or another secret government service, as many claim, but he has always struck me as being inherently unreliable, and not very trustworthy in any respect. That’s my honest opinion, anyway. Also, Mason is a little too enthusiastic about the idea of locking people up for their views…

Well, one of the comments on the blog (made allegedly by me) that “got me into trouble” over the past year or three referenced Jewish/Zionist/Israeli influence in the USA, and/or the mindset of many Americans who (influenced by TV, radio, and Press) blindly support the Israel lobby, so I had better not say too much here about “freedom” in the supposed “land of freedom”…

It’s strange…as recently as the 1970s, Britain had almost complete free speech on political, social, historical and other topics. What a contrast to today’s “iron fist in velvet glove” repression, abused by —mainly— the groups associated with the Jewish lobby and Israel; the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] etc.

I think that, eventually, the huge defensive works undertaken by the Kiev-regime forces will lie abandoned by their former defenders. Already, the regime is using press-gangs to “recruit” soldiers, and is slowly running out of arms, ammunition, and other supplies.

Even now, if I say or write something about how British society is steadily collapsing into chaotic dystopia, many will smugly smirk, “knowing better”. What will it take before those people start to listen, properly hear, then combine to do something about it all?

Because the leaderships of both System parties follow the Coudenhove-Kalergi agenda: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan; https://www.amazon.co.uk/Practical-Idealism-Kalergi-destroy-European/dp/1913057097.

Our society is going either to collapse or to explode; maybe both. That situation, either way, will see the best chance ever for social nationalism in the UK, and the best chance in Europe generally since Germany awoke in 1933, then plunged into defeat in 1945.

Starmer will be an unpopular PM, indeed an unpopular, if “elected”, quasi-dictator. I could say more but regular readers will know that I am restricted at present.

True but, as far as GE 2024 is concerned, the electorate will not be voting for Labour, they will be voting against the Conservative Party which has ruined so much over the past 14 years.

Both System parties are enemies of the people.

All high-ranking members of the Kiev regime are legitimate targets, most of all Zelensky himself, and Danilov.

Israeli embassies worldwide are not normal diplomatic buildings but centres for every kind of subversion and snooping, even compared to some others which mix diplomacy with an illegitimate amount of espionage and other activity.

London court postpones Assange’s extradition to the US Julian Assange has been granted a reprieve in his fight against extradition to America.

London’s Supreme Court has ruled that the WikiLeaks founder can take his case to an appeal hearing if the UK and US fail to meet certain conditions, The Guardian writes.

The court demands that the United States allow Assange to invoke the First Amendment of the US Constitution, which guarantees freedom of speech. They must also ensure that his Australian citizenship will not affect the proceedings, and that the death penalty will not be taken against the whistleblower, the publication explains.

If the court does not receive such guarantees by April 16, the defense will be able to appeal. However, even if assurances are provided, the parties will be able to file a motion before a final decision is made to file an appeal, the article emphasizes. If Assange is denied permission to appeal, he could be sent to the United States within days to face espionage charges.

His lawyers insist that the charges related to WikiLeaks’ publication of thousands of secret and diplomatic documents related to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are politically motivated and the extradition request is illegal.

A purely political and malicious attempt to silence a truthteller. On a smaller stage, the same happened to me, most recently in 2023-2014.

There is a definite gulf between the older and younger generations (without defining the exact age boundaries too precisely). The older someone is, the more likely that that person will both watch and trust the TV news (in the UK, BBC, ITV, Sky, in that order), and will also take seriously the print newspapers, either in their original form or in their online offshoots.

I doubt whether anyone under 30, perhaps anyone under 40, actually buys print newspapers any more. I am 67, and have not bought a real newspaper for at least 20 years. Looking in the local Waitrose, I notice that the only people buying newspapers are those in their eighties, at a guess.

From over a month ago, but just noticed today.

Cuba

https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2024-03-19/communist-cuba-is-on-the-brink-of-collapse

Almost unnoticed amid the drama and crisis that hit Latin America every week, in the last days of February the Cuban government asked the United Nations for aid to address a growing food shortage.

The unprecedented cry for help from a communist regime that has always prided itself on its social welfare model captures Cuba’s dire economic straits. Hurt by tightened US restrictions, decaying domestic production, a weak post-Covid tourism industry and indifference from its allies, the island is living through its worst economic days since the collapse of the Soviet Union more than three decades ago. A string of blackouts brought people into the streets last weekend, shouting for “food and power” — a rare display of social unrest since the turmoil that shook the island in July 2021, which the regime contained with crushing force.

Once you get past the finger-pointing, what we’re witnessing is the collapse of Cuba’s socialist regime. This transition could take decades. Or it could happen in much the same way as that great Cuba aficionado Ernest Hemingway once wrote of bankruptcy: “Gradually, then suddenly.”

[Bloomberg]

While I would not regard myself as “expert” on Cuba, I think that I probably know a bit more than the Average Joe. I once passed an exam in Cuban History 1940-1970, and have read the main histories, albeit long long ago (early 1980s).

I have never actually been there, though I have seen it from the air (overflying from Tampa, Florida to Grand Cayman) and sea (en route from Panama to the Bahamas); pace Sarah Palin, claiming to be informed about Russia because she had seen the extremity of Russian Federation territory from Alaska…

Israeli war crimes continue.

Or to put it in the language of a 1930s poster: “National Socialism, the political expression of our biological knowledge“…

However, Farage is not social-national; neither is Reform UK.

Utter lunacy. The bottom line from all of the Russian sanctions is that the UK is poorer, with a tanking economic trajectory.

Meanwhile the Russians are coining it in, selling energy to the UK through 3rd and 4th parties. China, Russia and the BRICS Alliance nations are doing a roaring trade, fuelled by the sanctions and fossil fuels at record low prices for themselves.

These traitors need to be ousted.

All true, but the little Indian money-juggler posing as Prime Minister either cannot see it or is following another agenda, one in which the interests of the British people are of little or no importance.

[El Greco, The Purification of the Temple]

From the newspapers

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/mar/23/swapping-tory-leader-labour-lead-bigger-poll-opinium

Three out of the four Tory MPs seen as the most likely replacements for Rishi Sunak would fare even worse than the current prime minister in a general election battle against Keir Starmer, according to the latest Opinium poll for the Observer.

The Conservatives have been involved in a fresh bout of leadership speculation over the past week, after rumours surfaced of a plot to dump Sunak and replace him with Penny Mordaunt, the leader of the House, before the next election.

But Opinium found that of the four most likely replacements for Sunak, were there to be a contest – Mordaunt, James Cleverly, the home secretary, Suella Braverman, the former home secretary, and Kemi Badenoch, the business and trade secretary – only Mordaunt would have any positive effect at all on the Tory vote.

And even then, the “Mordaunt bounce” would only be marginal and still end in a large defeat.”

[The Guardian]

The Guardian scribbler either cannot see or —probably— prefers not to see the main reason why voters polled prefer Penny Mordaunt to the other three— she is the only European (white) of the quartet.

This is to what the Conservative Party is now reduced. Out of three potential party leaders, only one, Penny Mordaunt, is even English (Cleverly has an English father).

The Great Replacement. The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.

That Opinium poll puts the Cons on 25%, Lab 41%, Reform UK 11%, LibDems 10%, Greens 8%.

According to my use of Electoral Calculus, that would leave the Conservative Party with 124 MPs (Lab 437, LibDems 47, Greens 2, Reform UK 0); a bad defeat, but less of a complete collapse than shown in other recent polls (one of which put the Cons on only 19%).

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

My own prediction, also using Electoral Calculus, is very different, and leaves the Cons with only 39 MPs.

The fact is that, since the 1970s, the UK has changed out of all recognition, and in the next 50 years will probably be completely ruined, unless something really big happens. A million a year coming in, and only about 200,000 a year leaving (but mostly English/British people emigrating to Australasia etc). Even in terms of sheer numbers, and “net”, 700,000+ every single year…unsustainable. UK society is already near breaking point.

After Russia’s victory in 2024-2025, there will have to be rebuilding of the infrastructure of however much of Ukraine will be under Russian administration.

Just as Osama bin Laden and his ghastly rabble were CIA creations, at root. The same with most of those groups.

I have been to, or through, Alexandropolis, or Alexandropouli as the Greeks call it: April 2001, when I drove from the UK to Turkey, a more difficult trip then than it is today (for several reasons). Alexandropolis is not very far from the border of Turkey; about a half-hour drive.

As far as I know, even the Jew-Zionist propagandists do not claim that German forces in WW2 did such things.

Gaza 2024, Tel Aviv 2034…

UK State Pension triple lock

For the Conservative Party, it is now not about trying to “win” GE 2024, but trying to mitigate losses— damage control.

Apart from the wealthy/very wealthy, the core Conservative Party vote is composed of persons over the age of 65. About 20% in toto. Recently, that core vote has been showing signs of erosion. Hence Jeremy Hunt’s triple lock pledge.

If the core vote stays quite firm, and the Conservative Party gets about 25% in the upcoming General Election, Con Party might expect to be left with maybe 100 MPs, possibly more if Labour dips below 45%.

If, on the other hand, the Cons only get 20%, their MP-cadre might only be 40. The first scenario is very bad for them but the second, disastrous.

Should the Con vote overall fall to 15% (admittedly unlikely), the number of Con MPs would fall below 15, effectively a wipe-out.

So that is Hunt’s idea. Keep the pensioners on board, and so end up in 2025 with 100+ MPs instead of 50 or fewer.

Anneliese Dodds, the uninspiring Labour Shadow Chancellor, has responded sluggishly to Hunt’s foray, and will not commit to the triple lock. Result— not a knockout, but a win on points anyway for Hunt and the Cons.

In reality, Hunt’s pledge was an easy and cheap one to make. He knows that there is a 99% (?) chance of the Conservative Party not forming the next government; he will never have to implement his “pledge”.

That being so, the pledge is worthless, and any thinking pensioner voter will (?) understand that it changes nothing, and the pensioner vote changes nothing, in terms of formation of the next government.

On the premises, that may mean that the “pledge” will not be fully effective in influencing intended voting. Still, it may have some effect.

I should add that, though I myself do now receive a State Pension, it is only about half of the maximum, by reason of my many years overseas. The pledge by Hunt therefore impacts me far less than it does others.

Gaza: as of today, @UNRWA, the main lifeline for #Palestine Refugees, is denied from providing lifesaving assistance to northern Gaza. Despite the tragedy unfolding under our watch, the Israeli Authorities informed the UN that they will no longer approve any @UNRWA food convoys to the north.

This is outrageous & makes it intentional to obstruct lifesaving assistance during a man made famine. These restrictions must be lifted. UNRWA is the largest organisation with the highest reach to displaced communities in Gaza. By preventing UNRWA to fulfill its mandate in Gaza, the clock will tick faster towards famine & many more will die of hunger, dehydration + lack of shelter. This cannot happen, it would only stain our collective humanity.

[“The scene of the terrorist attack at the Crocus City Concert Hall in the Red Mountain District of Moscow”]

I have seen various claims as to who might have done this, as to who was behind it all, and as to the reason or reasons. No conclusion as yet.

The U.S, Embassy in Moscow was warning American expats about a possible terror attack for several days. From where did that come? From general “chatter” monitored or intercepted?

Tenuous. Many people, including famous political figures, move around the world all the time, “like billiard balls“, as a Russian peasant on a river steamer once remarked to Gorky about the “gentry” [see: Literary Portraits, by Gorky, 1935, trs. Ivy Litvinov].

I cannot see the Kiev regime being behind this, except as the most dangerous game move (provoking Putin into doing something so harsh that it might then bring NATO into the Ukraine war directly). Surely even the Kiev regime would not do something so crazy?

Trump, if re-elected, will cut off funding, arms and ammunition supplies, and intelligence aid to the Zelensky dictatorship; the war in Ukraine will then grind to a halt within weeks.

The MP who tweeted or retweeted that BBC report did not address the fact that the pro-Israel bloc in the UK and other states, the core of which is the Jewish Zionist population in each state, seems to be fairly solidly behind the Israeli military and air attack “operation” in Gaza.

In relation to no.4 above, it is unfortunate that the learned district judge at my free speech trial (in November 2023) seemed unaware of or (much more likely) not in agreement with, the point(s) made (which have been made many many times previously).

In fact, and in any case, “antisemitism”, as such, is not illegal in this country; neither is so-called “holocaust” “denial”. That much has been made clear in numerous court cases though, as far as I am aware, not yet at appeal level in the higher courts (Court of Appeal and Supreme Court of the UK).

Actually, the trial judge was fair in his actual conduct of the trial, overall, but Britain these days has come under a kind of low cloud of repression in respect of —shall we say?— “them“…

I feel that a few issues were slightly fudged in the delivered judgment of the learned District Judge at my trial. It is long since I was a barrister in court (2007) but I feel that there was at least one good appeal point in that judgment.

However, I am disinclined to appeal, and then have to go through, at the Crown Court, what would amount to a retrial, rehashing all the nonsense of the “CAA” and CPS already heard, particularly as the sentence eventually handed down by the sentencing judge was relatively light; and also in view of the fact that the sentencing District Judge refused the Prosecution application for a Criminal Behaviour Order to restrict (though not much, really, the Order and Application having been so poorly-drafted) my publication of the blog.

Incidentally, my trial was at the end of last November, so only a week short of 4 months ago. Tempus fugit. Even my sentencing hearing was 9 days ago, but I have already done one day out of the ordered 15 “probation” days (nominally a day, in terms of the sentence format, but actually about an hour in real time).

The blog continues. The blog will continue. Inshallah, as the Arabs say.

Held up by Tom Watson, the former MP. A completely dishonest, corrupt, freeloading, bought-and-paid-for creature of the Israel lobby.

…and here is another thieving leech, Stephen Byers, another freeloading and/or fraudulent expenses cheat, and another Labour Friends of Israel member: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Byers.

Right Wing Labour MPs“, says he, meaning “members of Labour Friends of Israel“: at least three out of the ten Jewish (some of the rest possibly part- or “crypto”). Several of that group of ten wealthy or very wealthy; the rest freeloading, and/or fraudulent, leeches and snakes.

It is now not impossible that, at the upcoming 2024 General Election, the Reform UK party, despite its flaws (from my ideological direction) will run about level with the Con Party; somewhere around 15%-20%. If so, and if Labour can get about 45%, the Con Party might be left with about 25-50 MPs (Labour 500-525; LibDems 25-50; Reform UK 0-5; Green 1-2; SNP 15-30; Plaid Cymru 2-3; others, about 18).

If the Conservative Party declines to somewhere below 50 MPs, it is an open question (bearing in mind the age of its core voters) as to whether it can survive at all in the medium term (2030-2050).

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

While I agree with Nick Griffin [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Griffin] that there is, for social-national people, “no Parliamentary road” in a totally rigged game, it is not impossible for a political party as yet not in existence to play at least some role in a general social-national upsurge. “All roads lead to Rome“, as they say.

The Kiev-regime forces can still fire missiles at cities, but they do not have the soldiers, arms, and ammunition to defeat or even hold the Russian forces on the battlefield.

As most readers will be aware, I was recently sentenced for breach of the notorious police-state Communications Act 2003, s.127. My sentence was to complete, between now and the end of the year, 15 (notional) days or part-days similar to the old-style “probation”; mostly quite short meetings with the Probation Service.

I also have to pay a notional sum re. costs of my trial in the magistrates’ court, assessed at £734. My crowdfunder, first published several days ago, has reached £195, leaving another £539 to be raised to meet that main target, or another £805 to meet my full target.

As to the blog itself, it will continue to be published daily, or near-daily.

The malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” (“CAA”) cabal and Crown (“Clown”?) Prosecution Service (which the “CAA” —typically—badgered for 7+ years to prosecute me) completely failed to persuade the sentencing judge to curtail publication of, or censor the content of, the blog.

I myself, however, have decided to make the blog gradually more focussed on analysis, and less on comment, as well as making it more diplomatic, but without compromise on ideology or principle.

The “CAA” is evidently embarrassed by the ultimate result. Their endless whining and demanding may have led to me being charged and —after a year— convicted , and to my having to waste much time defending myself, but the ultimate result, apart from the £734 in financial imposts (which may be largely covered by donations), is that I have to meet once every 1-3 weeks with the Probation Service for the rest of this year; 15 meetings in all; I have already attended one (short and not at all unpleasant).

The “CAA” crowed mightily on Twitter/X when I was convicted (November 2023), but since the sentencing hearing (14 March 2024), they have not tweeted once about me. Ha.
