Saturday quiz
Well, this week brings another victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 4/10. I scored 7/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 6, and 9.

[“The reason Substacks and new media are thriving is because millions of people are utterly sick of the same liberal centrist dross being served up and shoved down our throats —from the BBC to much of the MSM—and then presented as some kind of “insight” when, in reality, it reflects the worldview of a 5-10% elite minority who still think we are living in 1997 and have failed to see that, actually, people don’t want liberalism on steroids. This elite minority is filled with people who went to the same schools, the same universities, who all basically think the same, live in the same postcodes, and are so obsessed with conforming to the Groupthink or their own social status that they never come close to representing or understanding the wider country. The only thing they want to do is maintain a dismal status-quo that was largely built by this elite class to serve the interests of this elite class. You can criticise me, that’s fine, but this is also why we are now one of the largest independent politics newsletters in the West (http://mattgoodwin.org), and why many others are also emerging, because people see through the Blob and they’ve had enough of it. Because they are the ones having to live with the reality of what this elite class has done to the country —an elite class that now also has the gall to say “yes we get your concerns but don’t be too annoyed/we don’t like your tone”. Do you see how utterly deluded large parts to legacy media now look to everybody else? Look for example at the stuff your own paper has been pushing on immigration. It is so obviously biased and disconnected from the mounting pile of evidence that it is embarrassing to read and, even worse, the reason you won’t change your tune is because you view the truth as “low status” and everybody can see it. Do you have one columnist, a single columnist, who genuinely reflects the mood of the average voter right now? Nope. Hence why the Tories are collapsing. Hence why legacy media is haemorrhaging viewers and listeners. Hence why liberal centrists (sorry, “conservatives”) are sitting around, scratching their heads, wondering why nobody is interested in them anymore. Still, the failures of MSM are what is driving the success of new media and the realignment of politics so keep doing what you’re doing …“]

Good, but not enough.
The “rubber boat” invaders are only 5% of the overall problem; indeed, if births to non-Europeans are taken into account, even less.
I think that the British people have largely made up their collective mind: Farage and Reform are slightly underwhelming, but are the only game in town to vote for in order to hit out at the System parties that have done so much damage. Everyone now knows that, at every by-election, and every local election, from now until the next general election, and then at that general election, the way to stamp on both Lab and Con is to vote Reform.
The Reform vote at the next general election will probably be between 30% and 45%, and even the 30% level will be enough to sink Starmer-stein and his Labour Friends of Israel regime.
“Labour” ceased to be “the party of the working man” a long long time ago, and certainly no later than 1997.

An utter cretin.
I shall be interested and amused to see the progress, if any, of the new party being set up by Corbyn and the comedic-named Zara Sultana. I am told that about a quarter of Labour members will join, defecting from Starmer-Labour. A quarter of members, maybe, but I apprehend that only about a tenth of Labour voters, if that, will defect at the next general election. At present, official Labour is registering about 20%-28% in the opinion polls. That seems to put Corbyn-Labour on maybe 2% or 3%. I doubt that Corbyn’s new party will attract more than 10% of the entire election vote; maybe 5%. Even 10% may not result in more than one or two MPs. Corbyn himself, and maybe Ms. Sultana, in both of whose constituencies the vote may be more concentrated.
[“If you are not from the UK then you should know there are currently dozens of protests happening right now across the country against illegal migration, broken borders, the sexual assault of our children, and the fact our own government is using our own money to outbid our own people in our own housing market by bankrolling private firms to put illegal migrants into the heart of our communities with more favourable rental contracts, all while giving us a bill of £7 BILLION a year and calling us “far right” if we say anything about it.”]
Impressive, but no more so than the one that stood in the garden of my parents’ house at Reigate Hill, Surrey, circa 1980. The house itself was called Sequoiah (the Native American name for giant redwood). I think that tree was about 100 years old at the time.

Corbyn showing his fanatical anti-British nature once again I see. MORON. In what real way does that differ from the existing rabble of New Labour Mark 2 so why the need for a new party?
Would he say that if we had a flood of Jewish Zionist extremist refugees from the quasi-Nazi Zionist entity of Israel? You know the sort of vicious, evil, twisted, utter PESTS that mounted a very unpleasant and untruful hate campaign against him and others on the Left for merely trying to stick-up for the rights of Palestinians and virtually insinuated he was the ‘second coming of Adolf Hitler’ thus successfully getting rid of him as Labour Party leader and ensuring Labour’s big defeat in 2019?
Besides which it is possible, though the British Left has never tried it, to have a social consciousness for the poor and the disadvantaged in society whilst being a nationalist and/or a patriot at the same time.
Socialism/Social Democracy combined with nationalist feeling/patriotism is not necessarily mutually exclusive.
Germany’s BSW party – a split from the hard-left Die Linke (The Left) – is trying to do this.

Has Corbyn looked at the sort of dross Labour and the fake Conservative Party before them are allowing to invade us using cross Channel dinghies? I think it is pretty evident you will be very unlikely to find highly skilled people like teachers, doctors, nuclear scientists ect amongst them. Instead, quite a few of them could well be terrorists planning atrocities here. We do not know as they are not vetted by the grotesquely irresponsible Labour and ‘Tory’ virulently anti-British scum.

I get the impression that Corbyn is the sort of idiot who thinks that the UK should and can give “asylum” to anyone and everyone in the world, and do that without this country and society being absolutely destroyed.

Undoubtedly, that would be the case with Corbyn. Away with the fairies and wholly unrealistic since the UN estimates there are literally MILLIONS of people in the world who can claim refugee status. This is why Britain needs to pull out of loony left, international conventions such as the Refugee Convention since it was designed for the totally different era of the 1950’s – a time when only the rich travelled abroad.

Oh dear, that frothing at the mouth, liberal-left globalist, open borders supporting, CLASS A CRETIN, Nick Reeves of Brighton, East Sussex (where else?🙄🙄🙄🙄) is howling at the moon yet again by ranting about all those people putting-up the Union Flag and St George’s Crosses!🙄🙄🙄🙄
HOW, on God’s Earth, did we get to have so many, middle-class, globalist, anti-British wankers like him living here?
I hope he never visits the USA! He would have a heart attack or a stroke if he did since it is a custom there for nearly every American to display a Stars and Stripes flag on their property!
I see he has had a silly rant against Sir Oswald Mosley and his famous peace rally in July 1939 and associated it with the flag rebellion. Of course, he says these people are unpatriotic. No mate, that is YOU not Mosley who only wanted for Britain to be NEUTRAL and NOT to join National Socialist Germany and nor are the peoole putting-up flags.
It is no surprise EU Remainers like him lost the referendum when they denigrate true patriotism all the time!

You may be right. His bluesky profile says “Democracy is a rare and precious gift. Either we defend it or leave the world to tyrants and oligarchs.” At the same time, he “stands with UKraine” (meaninglessly). “Ukraine” is a fake state run entirely by oligarchs (mostly Jews) and is also a tyranny which has refused to hold elections, has banned trade unions, has shut down any serious political opposition, and which drags people off the streets to join its ramshackle army.

Ukraine mirrors Britain in May 1940 when ‘Tory’ (in reality a Liberal Party inflitrator) petty tyrant, Winston Churchill, summarily crushed normal British civil liberties by throwing Sir Oswald Mosley, his wife, Lady Diana Mosley, his son, Max, and quite a few other peace campaigners into prison without a trial because they were making headway amongst the public with their peace campaign.

The loony globalist fruitcake also believes that RUSSIA not the Zionist state of Israel has the most influence on our politics.
No, you nutcase, it should be painfully obvious by now that the Zionist Pro Israel Lobby operating as it partially does from the Israeli Embassy in London has far more influence here than Russia has ever had or does currently.

Talking about the morons who “support” Ukraine, I noticed in a recent video about the old and famous Goring Hotel in London (had Germany won the war, it would have been the Göring Hotel) that, besides two Union Jacks, there are two equally large Ukrainian flags at the entrance.
The owner (Jeremy Goring) is a bastard who blames Brexit “for its terrible effect on the hospitality industry”. These globalists POS only think about their businesses and their money. I would not be surprised if he appears holding a banner that says: REFUGEES ARE WELCOME HERE!

Yes, Ian. The Goring was a favourite of the Queen Mother and also of the late Queen. Kate Middleton spend the night before her wedding at the Goring. The place is really beautiful and preserves the elegance of the Edwardian era.
