LibDems are just wastes of space. There may be exceptions, but I have not seen any. Ed Davey is only marginally better than was Jo Swinson, and she was rock-bottom in every respect.
Even the old Liberal Party was mostly ludicrous in the post-WW1 (let alone post-WW2) era, though Jo Grimond was an exception: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jo_Grimond.
As to the LibDem chances in the upcoming 2024 General Election, I may be wrong but think them overestimated by commentators. Admittedly, many voters who despise the present Government and who see nothing in Starmer-Labour for which to vote may be looking for a protest vote, and some (those who do not favour Reform UK, the Green Party, or simple abstention may choose the LibDems, but I think not very many.
There are presently-Con seats where Labour has no chance, but where the LibDems often roll in second. Those seats may go LibDem, especially if Labour voters vote tactically. I cannot see the LibDems getting more than 10% overall (2019— 11.6%).
In both 2017 and 2015, the LibDems got below 8% after the years of Con Coalition. There is no possibility for the LibDems to revisit the 23% they achieved in 2010. “You can fool all of the people some of the time and some of the people all of the time, but not all of the people all of the time” [Abraham Lincoln].
However, what matters in UK Parliamentary politics is not the overall percentage, but the percentage concentrated in particular seats, which is why, in 2015, UKIP received 12.6% of the vote but only the one seat it already had, whereas the LibDems received a mere 7.9%, yet retained 8 MPs.
So it may yet be that, in the end, even on an overall 10%, the LibDems, who currently have only 15 MPs, will able to double or even treble their Commons strength.
Meanwhile, if Reform UK gets, nationwide, the same, or even 15%, it will probably end up still without any MPs.
The present pseudo-democratic system is a bad joke.

“Kiev’s air defense forces are exhausted, and the West is in no hurry to help – Financial Times.
In the absence of new tranches of military assistance from the United States and the European Union, Ukraine is increasingly concerned that Ukrainian military personnel and military and industrial facilities may be vulnerable to Russian airstrikes, writes the Financial Times.
As Russia intensifies its campaign to strike energy infrastructure and other targets in Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky called on Western allies to approve new military aid packages to bolster Kyiv’s depleted air defense capabilities.
According to Zelensky, there are not enough air defense systems both on the battlefield and for the defense of targets in Ukrainian cities. Kiev admits that Russia “controls the sky.”
At the same time, the Ukrainian Armed Forces hope that Ukraine’s receipt of American-made F-16 fighters will put an end to the dominance of the Russian air force and help resume the counteroffensive, which has so far failed to achieve any significant successes.“
Not so many people want to be bothered by real problems, let alone real solutions. The masses want to be distracted by winning or losing sports games on the other side of the world, the latest soap trash on TV, the latest “reality” (unreality) TV show, or whatever.
Also, there are huge numbers of idiots virtue-signalling online or otherwise about how it is “kind” or “decent” to allow a million, or ten million migrant-invaders into the UK, or a hundred million if it comes to that. We have already had ten million, over 20+ years.
Those “virtue-signallers”, the “refugees welcome” dimwits etc are lacking the intellectual honesty to admit that that means the end of our basically decent European society, and the end of opportunities for most British people. It also means a housing crisis, a transport and roads crisis, a gradually-worsening NHS, gradually-sinking (in real terms) pay, State benefits, pensions etc, as well as educational standards falling through the floor.

“A mouse has been filmed secretly tidying up a man’s shed almost every night for two months.
Wildlife photographer Rodney Holbrook noticed that objects he left out of place were being mysteriously put back where they belonged overnight.
“I couldn’t believe it when I saw that the mouse was tidying up,” Holbrook said.
“He moved all sorts of things into the box, bits of plastic, nuts and bolts. I don’t bother to tidy up now, as I know he will see to it. I leave things out of the box and they put it back in its place by the morning. Ninety-nine times out of 100 the mouse will tidy up throughout the night.”

“The study, by the thinktank British Future, projects that the number of ethnic minority MPs is most likely to rise from 65 to as many as 83, with much of this rise expected whatever the actual outcome of the election.
If the number of ethnic minority MPs does reach 75 or more, it will have increased fivefold in a decade and a half, having been just 15 out of 650 in the 2005 to 2010 parliament.“

White people (the people formerly termed “British”) are being removed from Parliament too now. What will be the proportion, both in the population and/or in the House of Commons (and the Lords) by 2030, 2040, 2050? Over-representation in Parliament will be plainly obvious, I think.
In any case, this is the British Parliament, and should only have fully British —in every sense— MPs and (so long as the upper house exists) peers.

“US Treasury Secretary Jeannette Yellen, who is on a visit to China, is criticized for her excessive friendliness, which was expressed in numerous bows at a meeting with her Chinese counterpart.
Diplomatic etiquette experts at The New York Post note that American officials do not bow at all and point out that Chinese Vice Premier He Lifen, to whom Yellen bows glibly, does not respond with a mutual movement. A protocol error that critics will call a sign of America’s weakness.”

Having said that, the only way to (“peacefully”) destabilize the failed two-party rigged system in the UK is to destroy at least one major party. The “Conservatives” have volunteered, by their corrupt ineptitude, to be that party. At the upcoming General Election, all that is required is for people to punish the Con Party by not voting for it. Either abstain, or vote anywhere but Con.
Tice, of Reform UK, is scarcely my kind of politician, but he has caught the mood. In a recent interview (a few days ago), Tice made the necessary point: punish (his word) the Con Party, no matter whether voting for Reform UK means more Labour MPs. Labour will almost certainly “win” anyway, and almost certainly with a large majority. Think strategically. Wipe out the Con Party by either abstaining or by voting anywhere but Con.
Good. Another total waste of space gone. I never liked what I saw about or from him.
“He is also a member of the Free Enterprise Group of MPs, founded by Liz Truss, and along with Truss, Priti Patel, Kwasi Kwarteng and Dominic Raab, he co-authored After the Coalition (2011) and Britannia Unchained (2012). The authors of Britannia Unchained claimed that “Once they enter the workplace, the British are among the worst idlers in the world.” [Wikipedia].
So wrote a man who has never done a day’s actual or non-political work in his life. He was even useless as an MP and junior minister, getting sacked at least three times from various portfolios (despite having been one of the least rebellious and most toadying of the Conservative MP-cadre).
Skidmore tries to present an “intellectual” front, but not convincingly. He does not have the horsepower, when all is said and done.
Skidmore, though now claiming to have resigned on a matter of principle, had himself earlier said (in 2022) why he would not be continuing as MP:
“On 26 November 2022, Skidmore announced that he would be standing down at the next general election, later stating in Parliament that ‘my constituency of Kingswood is being formally abolished in the boundary changes and there is nowhere for me to go.’[37][38][39]” [Wikipedia].
Translation: he has been both useless and disliked as MP and junior minister, and no other constituency would want him once his present one is abolished. In any case, there may well be few Conservative Party seats left after 2024.
Skidmore has spun getting kicked out of Parliament (by the time of the 2024 General Election) as a principled resignation, no doubt hoping to be given some lucrative and maybe environment-oriented quango appointment later. He might have been better to wait to see whether he would be in line for a peerage. No chance of that now.
…and the Zionist Jews in the UK, at least those making public statements on Twitter/X and/or on msm, are following that line; as are political doormats such as Starmer and that little Indian money-juggler currently posing as Prime Minister.

'Fundamentally, British people need to be housed first.'@GoodwinMJ says 'close to half of all social housing in London goes to households who are headed by somebody who is not born in Britain'.
“The Tories have been lying —they’ve been gaslighting the British people, promising them one thing while delivering something else altogether.
They promised “lower overall numbers” only to then send net migration soaring to levels that have simply never been seen before in British history.
They promised to “take back control” and restore Britain’s status as a self-governing nation only to then completely lose control of Britain’s borders.
And now –as the latest data shows– we can see that while they promised a high-skill, high-wage, and highly-selective immigration policy that would attract “the best and the brightest” global talent they have instead delivered the very opposite.
They’ve further pushed open the floodgates to a new era of low-skill, low-wage immigration from outside Europe —the very kind of immigration which, as the latest studies show, is a net cost rather than a net benefit to Western economies and welfare states.
They need to stop lying to the British people. They need to level with the British people and admit that what they have delivered since the vote for Brexit is the total opposite of what they promised.
The British people deserve better than this. And it’s high time somebody speaks up and gives it to them. They deserve the truth. And they deserve leaders who will give them nothing but the truth.”
…and they deserve political leaders and parties not in hock to the international Jewish lobby and/or Israel lobby.

Housing as a national 'top issue' is up 8pts to 25% since the beginning of last year, making it the issue where concern has grown most – immigration is also up 7pts to 39%.

The little Indian money-juggler must be well-aware that most voters (even former Conservative voters) view the state of the country as terrible and getting worse.
If a general election is held “now” or soon, i.e. sometime in Spring 2024, the Conservative Party MP-cadre may be all but wiped out— possibly with only about 50 MPs left, though maybe 100 or, if Sunak is exceptionally lucky, 150.
If, on the other hand, the 2024 General Election is delayed until the winter of 2024, the state of the UK will almost inevitably be yet worse, and therefore the popularity of the (supposedly) governing Con Party will be even lower.
The usual stresses on NHS, transport etc will be even more severe, and the international situation may place greater stresses on the economy. Added to those factors, the migration-invasion will have continued for another year (nearly). On those premises, the Con Party may face not only the possibility but the probability that it will be reduced to something like 50 MPs.
It seems to me, therefore, that the GE will take place in late Summer or early Autumn, before the cold weather again arrives. So about 6-9 months from now. That gives time for Labour to make mistakes.
Even so, it seems unlikely (even in the “glorious uncertainty” of the UK electoral system) that the Conservative Party can hope for an MP-cadre much if at all higher than 100; certainly no more than 150. 150 would be bad for the Con Party (similar, though worse, to 1997 and 2001), whereas 100 or fewer would be seen as disastrous.
For me, perhaps for others in the social-national milieu, the main thing is to break the whole binary electoral system, which presents, every 4-5 years, a false choice to the electorate.
If the Conservative Party is trashed in the 2024 General Election, Labour will be able to form an elected dictatorship even worse than under Blair and Brown. That will lead to popular discontent (when it fails to address the several major challenges facing the UK), with the people even more eager to embrace a new way forward under a new political party or movement, and with the small rump Conservative Party having no credibility as an alternative government.

Ha ha! Not that I myself would do the same (regular readers of the blog will know that I recently joined the convict classes, having made the mistake of thinking that England still had left at least some free speech or freedom of expression).
The American incident reported upon above reminds me of another incident, which happened when I was a Bar pupil (trainee barrister). That must have been in 1992.
The case involved two West Indians alleged to have robbed a petrol station in NW London, using a machete. They had been arrested the same evening, not very long afterwards, in the (alleged) getaway car.
There were oddities in the evidence. The car had been searched following the stop. No money or weapons had been found. Later, at the police station, a further search revealed a wad of cash. A week later, a further search “discovered” a container full of coins (allegedly from the filling station) and a machete. The allegation from the defendants was that everything had been planted.
In fact, though I did not know said little twerp barrister, I recognized him, having been on the Bar Finals course with him (and hundreds of others) in 1987-88. I however had gone to the USA a while after that, so had not been Called to the (English) Bar until 1991; I also qualified at and was Admitted to the Bar of the State of New York.
All this took place at Wood Green Crown Court. As a Bar pupil, in 1992, I was there fairly frequently.
[Wood Green Crown Court, North London]
Both defendants were in custody, having been refused bail prior to trial.
The evidence against the defendants was non-existent, save for that “found” in the car. There was no cctv evidence, no fingerprint evidence, no DNA evidence (this was in 1992, and such evidence was still in its infancy). The (apparently) diminutive Indian cashier in the petrol station had been terrified, and gave no testimony. Neither did the defendants.
Despite the paucity of evidence, the jury came back with “Guilty” verdicts. There was a moment of silence. A member of the Metropolitan Police Flying Squad then gave the judge a rundown of the previous most relevant convictions of the defendants. The judge knew most of that already, as did Counsel, but of course the jury did not. There were gasps as the long list of increasingly-serious convictions was read out, topped finally by the information that the defendants still faced another upcoming trial in which they would stand accused (at the Old Bailey) of conspiring to rob building society branches, armed with sawn-off shotguns.
The judge listened patiently while, for 20 minutes, little twerp barrister attempted to mitigate. My pupilmaster declined to attempt any mitigation. The judge then sentenced the two to exactly the same term— 5 years each.
Another moment of silence preceded an explosion from the dock (behind us) as the defendants shouted out (to the jury) “YOU DOGS! YOU FUCKING WHITE DOGS!“.
The jury members (in fact not all white, there being one black woman and at least one Indian) quailed; I thought that one woman jury member might faint or cry out, though she bravely sat it out. The little twerp Counsel looked nervously over his shoulder, as did my pupilmaster. I had also looked round as the outburst had happened, but now pretended to be writing (in order to seem stoic, I think, pointless and perhaps ludicrous as that was).
The defendants then tried to fight their way out of and over the dock. The judge pressed his concealed button but stayed seated. His face was that “Judicial Livid” (red/purple) that I later saw once or twice at the High Court when a judge did not wholly appreciate my argument…
After a lot of banging, thudding, and swearing, the defendants were subdued by the two prison guards accompanying them. Other court security people then entered the courtroom. The defendants were taken down (to the cells below).
Just a day in the life, as they say.

“This is the terrifying moment a teenage girl was sprayed in the face with ammonia and bleach in a random attack on her doorstep.
Shannelle Farrier was left in excruciating pain and needed her eyes washed out with several litres of water at hospital after brute David Nicholson threw the chemicals in her face. The shocking assault was captured on CCTV in the hall way of the 19-year-old’s flat in Newcastle.
She said: “I felt burning in my eyes and my mouth. I was screaming in pain yelling that something was in my eyes. I honestly thought that I was going to die and screaming out for help. It was instant, I didn’t know what was happening. They did it without rhyme or reason.
“There was a strong smell of bleach. We thought it was an acid attack. I eventually ended up unconscious. My friend had rang an ambulance who turned up in protective masks and hauled me in the shower to wash off as much of the substance as possible.“
Shannelle was rushed to Newcastle’s Royal Victoria Infirmary where her eyes were swilled with litres of water to return them to a normal Ph level. She spent a total of five hours being treated before she returned home. She said: “I felt violated. The attack happened in my own home.
“After that, I went to stay with my mother for months. For me, last Christmas was totally ruined. I spent the entire time worrying about my sight. I couldn’t leave my home, I had to quit my college course as I was too nervous to be outside. I was constantly looking over my shoulder.
Nicholson, of Hauxley Drive, Gosforth, Newcastle, was arrested a week after the attack. He later admitted assault. He was sentenced to 20 months, suspended for two years with rehabilitation requirements and an alcohol abstinence requirement at Newcastle Crown Court earlier this week (December 20).
The thug was also given a five-year restraining order to protect the victim. Shannelle has now slammed the sentence, claiming he got off lightly after he intended to cause harm.“

The Conservative Party— a completely useless and clueless party, whose MPs are almost all just incredibly self-serving, and almost all incredibly stupid. On top of that, 80% of them belong to Conservative Friends of Israel.
Not that the Labour Party is hugely better. The only thing to do, for voters at the 2024 General Election, is to try to destabilize the fake binary system by making sure that at least one major party (i.e. the Con Party) crashes and burns, even at the expense of having to endure, for a while, a kind of elected dictatorship under Labour idiots.
I think that most voters, even former Con Party voters, have now written off the Conservative Party, and will not vote for it. Many, though, will never vote Labour either. It is an open question how many will simply abstain. Somehow I think, at the GE, not so many. They may seek out protest votes. Reform UK is plainly controlled opposition and pro-Israel etc, but will probably get a much higher vote than many are predicting; certainly 10%, possibly 15%, and I would not completely rule out 20%, depending on events.
Only a social-national movement can save our society, but at present it does not exist in any serious or hard-hitting way.

The USA should ditch Israel, but “their” influence is too embedded in Congress, the American economy, the American legal system, the “American” mass media etc. The tail truly wags the dog, despite Israel being entirely dependent, in big-picture terms, on the American defence umbrella.

“In 1947, in the aftermath of the Exodus incident, and the” dismay of many in the nationalist camp that the British government was prohibiting large-scale Jewish migration to Mandatory Palestine, Korff led a Lehi (Stern Gang) plot to firebomb the Foreign Office in London in protest.[4]
He traveled to Paris and offered money to a decorated member of the United States Army Air Forces, Reginald Gilbert, to fly the plane that would first drop leaflets, then drop the bombs.“

Another Jew terrorist, in other words.
According to Ostrovsky [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victor_Ostrovsky], MOSSAD has secret arms dumps in every country where there are Jews (except the USA, arms presumably being widely available there). Hundreds of young Jews go to Israel from the UK every year on special courses. Most are trained in the use of weapons; some are trained with explosives. So when they return to the UK, what are they? Sleeper agents? Future terrorists?
If someone leaves Europe to go fight in the Middle East because of their religion, you would certainly describe them as religious extremists.
"Israel" is a colony of religious extremists. They have come from Ukraine, Morocco, France, the US, to steal land and kill for Zionism.

Mere numbers are only the starting-point. The vital point is, if there is a massive nuclear exchange between, mainly, the USA and Russia, what happens? One of today’s warheads probably does almost as much damage as two, or ten, or more, if all hit more or less the same place.
Obviously, were there to be such an exchange, the USA, as a functioning state, would more or less cease to exist. The same is true of Russia. As for the UK, it might be wiped out not only as a state, but as a nation (taking it still to be a nation), because of the small geographic size of the UK as compared to the two major nuclear powers.

The Internet makes mock of many things, and the various “little Britain” things especially. The overall situation, however, is not new.
In the 1930s, the public of the USA, France, Germany etc were aware, if interested at all, that Edward VIII was involved with a Mrs. Simpson. In Britain and its colonies, though, that was kept secret (from the British public) until 1937 (to be exact, from December 1936).
In the 1980s, similar situations arose. In the early 1980s, I was told that, at a State banquet held at the Banqueting House in Whitehall for an important Soviet delegation, and attended by someone I knew, the leader of the Soviet group said to a British minister how sad it was that former Prime Minister, Harold Wilson [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Wilson], had become completely demented (Alzheimer’s, or similar). Apparently, the British minister nodded sagely before changing the subject.
So the Soviet Government knew, the British Government knew, but of course the British public did not know.
Meanwhile, in the rest of the world, those interested in the rather underwhelming book could buy it and read it without let or hindrance. Absurdly, the same was true in Scotland, because Scotland has its own legal system and the British Government had not thought to apply for any restrictions in that jurisdiction.
I myself had a copy of the book soon after publication. Not a total bore but not exactly riveting either. Had the Government simply let Wright, the author, sell the book without all the publicity occasioned by the attempt to ban it, it would never have become a bestseller. As it was, millions of copies were sold, and Wright died, possessed of huge royalties, in 1995.
In fact, had the Government paid Wright his full pension at an earlier stage, he never would have written the book, or at least published it.
Now we have the Internet. Anyone with, say, a Twitter/X account can publish or republish under their own name, or a pseudonym. The English courts are unable to prevent —and/or in most cases even punish— any breach of injunction, certainly not before millions of people around the world have seen the material.

“The CEO of one of the largest Dutch banks said, if everyone gets individual personal carbon credits, why don’t we make it so that rich people, who for example want to go on holiday a little too often, can buy personal carbon credits from people who can’t afford buying plane tickets or eating meat too often?”
So what will happen is the rich will get richer, the poor will get poorer, and they’re saying it openly as if it’s not a controversial thing at all. It’s neo-feudalism. That’s what it is.”

Somewhat akin to my curses as I traversed the crumbling roads of coastal southern England today. Potholed roads (mostly “A” roads, at that, not “B” or unclassified), and mostly not being repaired.
The UK Government has money with which to close down the economy for months and years because of panic over a virus that killed hardly anybody, it has money to spend on housing and feeding hundreds of thousands of migrant-invaders, it has money to throw away as “aid” to the corrupt, brutal shambles posing the the “state” (failed state) of “Ukraine”, but little for the British people.
At the same time, in the UK itself, almost nothing works properly: the migration-invasion continues, people generally are getting ripped-off right, left, and centre, living costs continue to increase relative to both pay and benefits, the NHS is at best now a skeleton service, and the schools and supposed “universities” are churning out “highly-qualified” (thanks to award inflation) “graduates” who know, most of them, ****-all.
That does not cover the entirety of the shambles; just a selection.

Reading a couple of tweets today reminds me of a personal experience of the criminal courts at Christmas-time.
I think that it was December 1993 when I went to Snaresbrook Crown Court (on the London/Essex border) to defend a West Indian accused of selling counterfeit cassette tapes at a street market.
I had formulated what I thought was a reasonable defence on the facts; in effect, mainly an alibi defence.
The defendant was rather a pain, who obviously thought himself a very clever fellow; I had also represented him at the committal proceedings at Highbury Corner Mags.
I was looking forward not only to a possibly successful defence but also to a lunch or more with a lady I knew slightly, who lived quite close to the Court, and who knew that I would be there that day. Not a firm date, but a pleasant possibility anyway.
Just before the start of the trial, Prosecution Counsel came to me with the news that the prosecution was not going to proceed. The cost of proving, via forensic science, that the tapes were counterfeit was too much, apparently.
Pleasant news both for the defendant and for me. Instead of a day in court, finished at 1030. The only negative factor— two days of refreshers (daily fees) which I would not get.
I was in the robing room and about to get ready to leave, when the public address system called my name. I hurried to the large circular reception desk in the entrance lobby of the building. Naturally, I thought that it must be that lunching lady whose businessman husband was, presumably, on the golf course where (she claimed) he spent most of his time.
Imagine my surprise and, to be frank, disappointment, when the person awaiting me was a short, fat barrister, who asked me whether I would be willing to undertake a defence at short notice (almost immediately). I agreed. A modest standard fee, but don’t look a gift horse in the mouth…
It emerged that, by reason of bureaucratic mistakes, a defendant (another West Indian) had actually got as far as Crown Court trial, on a charge of theft or attempted theft (of a handbag), without ever having had the benefit of solicitor or Counsel. Something, as far as I know, unheard of these days except where a defendant represents himself by choice.
The facts alleged were that the defendant had been being shadowed by a special police squad in the busy Upper Street, Islington, and that the surveillance squad had seen him enter the Cuba Libre restaurant.
The defendant had then emerged with a large laminated menu, and sat at an outside table, next to and very close to a table occupied by a group of young women. The police squad had observed the defendant’s foot moving the handbag in question, which was resting on the ground. Finally, the defendant had allegedly made to grab the handbag, only to be jumped upon and arrested before he could even get to his feet.
I actually knew the restaurant, had visited it a few times, and had even once sat outside, the very locus of the alleged offence.
I had a brief conference with the defendant. I asked him why he was even at a restaurant in view of the police evidence that he had not a penny in his pocket on arrest. His answer? That he had been awaiting his girlfriend, who always paid! I made a joke to the effect that I should have a girlfriend like that.
I told the defendant that the evidence did not really show that what he had done amounted to theft, or even to an attempt.
A poor witness in his own defence, but there was no need for him to give evidence at all, really. Let the Prosecution prove the attempt, if they could.
In Court, the judge was perplexed as to how the trial could ever have come on without Counsel having been instructed beforehand. Prosecution Counsel was equally perplexed. Still, both Counsel present were ready to roll, until —just as I got to my feet to reply to a remark from the judge— the defendant shouted out “WILL YOU PLEASE DEFEND ME?!“, followed by “I DON’T WANT HIM! I WANT SOMEONE ELSE” (unnamed).
The judge told the defendant to keep quiet, but added that, in the circumstances, he had no alternative but to adjourn the trial until late January, and grant the defendant bail. As the Prosecution Counsel said to me, that was exactly why the defendant had shouted out— he knew that he would be bailed over Christmas and New Year, and thought that an immediate trial would mean a custodial sentence that day, very likely.
I think that that defendant was wrong. I think that I could have had him acquitted that day, but there we are… I have occasionally wondered what happened at the eventual trial.
Incidentally, Cuba Libre closed some years ago, but has been resurrected in Dalston, East London, under another name. The interior seems to be similar to that of the restaurant I remember, though.

“Good afternoon, and an early Merry Griftmas to you all. I’m publishing this early to get ahead of a systemic attempt to shut this controversy down.
I can now reveal some of the extent of the grift as money sloshed through Jack Monroe’s PayPal account when she fraudulently claimed to be suing@MartinDaubney and @LeeAndersonMP_, as well as a bit earlier in 2022 when she repeatedly claimed her website was broken and she desperately needed the advertising income to continue her job as a “recipe writer”, making no mention of the £10k she had just received from Patreon subscribers.
My research covers the time period of the fake libel case, as well as various other begs such as the broken website, etc. and all the times she claimed to be living in poverty (e.g. July 2022), etc. however it was not possible to negotiate access to data earlier than that so we’ll never publicly know how much she scammed from 2012-2021, sorry.
It also does not cover beyond May 2023 as the primary focus of my investigation has been on the fake libel fundraiser which didn’t go beyond that time, as the most egregious fraud perpetuated on the public. January/February 2022: the “broken website” beg netted her more than £7,000 – seemingly a mixture of existing followers and new followers acquired from Nigella’s promotion of Jack’s Patreon and subsequent uplift in Patreon takings.
The fake libel trial: Over £25,000 in the first few days of the initial tweet about the alleged libel. Then, depending on how you calculate it (because no, these funds were NOT ringfenced at all), over £150,000 minimum across the year of claiming that she was definitely, 100% going ahead with it, boosted at various times when she put the beg out again and again and referenced it in media interviews, etc.
Hunger Hurts 2 – July 2022: A “smaller beg” of over £3,000 for contrived nonsense about boiling down soap to make shower gel. These figures and some of the data have been passed to HMRC and Action Fraud, urging them to do a deeper investigation.
Given the sensitive nature of the information, as well as the threats (of violence, of doxxing, of generally unpleasant things promised), police interest (I have not been arrested or charged), and backlash I received for leaking the Patreon data I was given, I am not going to publish the raw information at all; partly because I’m not a complete cunt, partly because there’s so many transactions that redacting them would take ages, and partly because doing so would likely undermine any future criminal investigation which has been my goal all along.
The level of deceit displayed by her is jaw-dropping. Inventing the fictional persona of “Jack Monroe”, the people’s poverty princess, and then revising history and testing out different versions of events to concoct the most emotionally charged and financially lucrative story to steal money from well-meaning, naive people: most of whom appear to have been less well-off than her, backing up the assertion that she claimed was defamatory about her making money off of poor people.
The people who platformed her have a lot to answer for, too. She didn’t become famous on her own. She has been platformed, celebrated, and supported by celebrities and the media for over a decade: all of it based on a mistelling of the truth that has grown out of all proportion to become monstrous, menacing, and misleading.
She has taken you all for a ride and laughed at your expense every step of the way. The watch, the earrings, the Cotswold sideboards, etc. all came from money you’ve given her. And it hasn’t helped the less fortunate: her “campaigning” has been insipid and weak, vague and general rather than specific, and a waste of time when a more qualified, knowledgeable person with the work ethic Jack lacks could have been platformed instead.
I can only hope this conclusively puts an end to her scamming and she faces justice for all the bad things she’s done. It is my fervent wish that she becomes a winning answer on the show Pointless (as nobody will know who she is) and that she is treated with contempt and mockery everywhere she goes, second only to the wish that she faces proper investigation and criminal sanctions for the fraud she’s committed.
And, at this point, given all I have seen, I am firmly of the opinion that it is fraud. Not a mistake, not an “oopsie, my bad” but clear, calculated fraud designed to take money from well-meaning people and spend it on herself. My work here is done.
This account will now be archived so the evidence remains public. Thanks for all your support. I couldn’t have done it without you all. I am off to enjoy my Christmas vacation now and I hope you are too (if you celebrate it). Please enjoy the video at the bottom and turn the sound up to hear the song.

If Britain sustains something close to current record net migration levels (i.e. around 400k a year) then its population is forecast to grow by nearly 10 million people by 2045 — latest MAC report pic.twitter.com/uKnLQyydr8
The real “net” figure is even higher at present, closer to 600,000. Another point is that those leaving are often white British people, meaning that the “net” figures often cited disguise the true level of demographic change. Neither do such figures make any reference to the numbers of non-whites born in the UK every year. White British people are declining in numbers constantly, not only in percentage terms but also in terms of absolute numbers.

Historical note
I was just reading something about the 18thC German mystic and writer, Novalis [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novalis], better known in Central Europe than in the UK.
I saw this on Wikipedia:
“While at Jena, he published his first poem and befriended the playwright and fellow poet Friedrich Schiller. In Leipzig, he then met Friedrich Schlegel, becoming lifetime friends. Novalis completed his law degree in 1794 at the age of 22. He then worked as a legal assistant in Tennstedt immediately after graduating. There, he met Sophie von Kühn. The following year Novalis and Sophie became secretly engaged. Sophie became severely ill soon after the engagement and died just after her 15th birthday. Sophie’s early death had a life-long impact on Novalis and his writing.”
Also, re that girl:
Although Novalis’s love for Sophie has assumed mythic proportions, their time together was short and uneventful. The two met on 17 November 1794 when Novalis was twenty-two and Sophie was only twelve. They became engaged on Sophie’s thirteenth birthday 17 March 1795. Sophie became sick in November 1795, and her sickness continued until her death at the age of 15 in March 1797.”
I suppose that the average person today in the UK would be appalled at her young age when engaged, but the Wikipedia piece makes it fairly obvious that the relationship was kept on an idealized or romantic-spiritual level.

Paris was still a pretty decent, if rather quirky and odd city in 1971, when I spent three weeks there with a French couple (in the 5th Arrondisement; on the Left Bank).

I was not there again, in the city itself, until about 2008. The rot had really set in…

“Former defence secretary Ben Wallace has warned Israel that it risks undermining the legal basis for its action in the Gaza Strip, adding to growing international pressure over the escalating conflict.
Writing in the Telegraph, the senior Tory warned against a ‘killing rage’ and said Israel’s ‘original legal authority of self-defence is being undermined by its own actions’.
The intervention by Mr Wallace, who left office earlier this year, is the latest warning to Benjamin Netanyahu’s administration amid deepening concern over the scale of civilian casualties.”
[Daily Mail]
Even pro-Israel drones such as Wallace are now trying to distance themselves from Israel’s “massacre of (mainly) the innocents” in Gaza.
The Israelis and other Jews may not be (mainly) descended from the original Israelites of thousands of years ago (the Jews of today being descended mainly from Black Sea or other Khazars), but the former model their actions on the Israelites’ genocidal wars as recounted in the Old Testament.
“Jack Monroe”
Certainly overdue for a reckoning on this one. She seems to have gone silent which is a good thing in terms of her dangerously misguided "campaigning" but can't help wondering why none of the celebrities that defended her have nothing to say now. #JackMonroe
I do think she wrongly perpetuated the idea that one could feed a family healthily for £20/week. Which was a lie. And contributed to some terrible stereotyping of pple in poverty. Aided austerity, rather than challenging it.
You're right. The lack of due diligence in fact-checking #JackMonroe backstory or whether any of her claims actually held any weight is a shocking indictment on the press.
Rufus Hound blocked me for suggesting that Jack Monroe was not as squeaky clean as people believed. @RalfLittle was also quick to defend the patreon. @Nigella_Lawson was taken in by the lies and, in turn, earned Monroe over £10.000 in a single month. Where are they now? pic.twitter.com/pLyp48i2EU

In addition, the “grifting” fraud also got money from stray donations direct to her, from newspaper interviews, radio, and TV shows and interviews, from “consultancy” “work” for major supermarkets, from well-paid appearances at various festivals and other events, and from book royalties, as well as from fake appeals for money based on non-existent legal actions against Lee Anderson MP and others (monies which “Jack Monroe” then pocketed for her own use). A total of tens of thousands of pounds a month at peak.

🇮🇱Zionist infiltration of our government and institutions is the ONE thing we’re NOT allowed to talk about.
If you do, you risk (in the UK) being prosecuted at the behest of the Jew-Zionist lobby, eg the malicious cabal known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism”. They have corrupted or otherwise suborned the police and CPS. I myself was recently convicted in the magistrates’ courts by reason of such a prosecution, as regular readers of the blog will know (I may appeal; we shall see).
Incredibly, there are millions of poor saps who believe loonies and/or liars of that sort. If you are told constantly, for example, from age 5 or 7 or 10, or 14, and from all manner of “authoritative” msm and other sources, that millions of Jews were killed during 1941-1944 in “gas chambers” by German SS personnel in Poland, then that idea becomes embedded in your psyche, and stays there until you are, so to speak, “cured” in —usually— later life, whether that be at age 21, 28, 35, 42 or whenever.

“Metropolitan Kyrill of Smolensk addressed the crowd of thousands in Kiev: “What was Russia baptised for? For us to be happy. Russia, Ukraine, Belarus – this is Holy Russia! Holy Russia is not an empire, it is not a union: former or some future one. Holy Russia is an ideal of love, goodness and truth. We are all with you, one Holy Russia! Remain who you are and nothing will shake our unity.“”
I myself once met a Metropolitan of Kiev (the second-ranking dignity in the Russian Orthodox Church). At breakfast. My then girlfriend was looking after him that day (he spoke no English).
I think that that was at the de Vere Hotel by Kensington High Street, and in the early/mid-1980s. Maybe 1983 or 1984. He gave me some of his kefir (the first time I had tried it) and, at the same time, deftly fielded a question from me about his view of Tolstoy. Later that morning, at the empty Russian Orthodox Cathedral (also in Kensington), he gave me a bottle of Moskovskaya vodka.
