Largan. A Conservative Friends of Israel puppet. A nasty little man, who used to be an accountant for Marks & Spencer. Also, a dishonest little bastard.
Largan has obviously realized that, as a “Conservative” MP who won his seat narrowly in 2019, with a majority of only 509 votes, he has little chance of beating the Labour candidate this time in the normal way, so has decided to cheat.
Largan is an election cheat. Those fake “Labour” and “Reform UK” posters he has published are an outright attempt to defraud the High Peak electorate.
Despite having been a barrister (in practice or overseas employed practice 1992-2008, and still nominally a barrister until wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred for political reasons in late 2016), I know little about the law pertaining to elections.
The above, however, does not seem to cover the case of a candidate deceptively using the style and colours of his opponents in order to trick voters directly.
Even if Largan is not actually in breach of electoral law (and I cannot say whether that is so or not), in view of his deliberate and dishonest copying of the colour and style of Labour and Reform UK posters, the voters of High Peak must be made aware of how very dishonest and desperate Largan is (desperate not to have to get a real job again, something he has only had for 5 out of his 38 years).
Send Largan back to counting beans for M&S.
🚨 UPDATE: Derbyshire Police said: “We wish to confirm that we have received a number of messages in relation to claims of election fraud, raised due to concerns around marketing material. An incident has been created and will be reviewed.” https://t.co/xNpj0zZ1Br
Actually, when you think how likely (in fact, inevitable) it was that Largan’s deception would be discovered (having after all been publicized on Twitter/X by Largan himself!), it does call into question Largan’s commonsense or lack of the same. His judgment too. He is an idiot.
I don't think anybody has ever been that desperate before.

Robert Largan—serially dishonest and not even very clever in being so.
Imagine, though, how little confidence Largan must have in the “Conservative” brand to try to camouflage himself on different election posters as Labour, and Reform UK and Green, in other words anything but “Conservative”…and also even printing a fake “newspaper”.
Derbyshire Police are now looking at Robert Largan's campaigning as "Labour forLargan" and "Reform for Largan".https://t.co/j2O1CxrURN
Well, I agree with Hodges on that, at least in terms of the gap between Con and Lab, but then, after all, I did predict on the blog quite some months ago that, contrary to the usual scenario, there would not be a convergence in the polling prior to Election Day. The reason is clear— people have just given up on the “Conservatives”. Labour is disliked but, in the UK’s basically binary system, if people do not vote Con, Lab profit thereby.
Look at how many Con MPs are failing to contest GE 2024, and look at the poor quality of most of those intending to contest it. Robert Largan is but one, and egregious, example of that.
The voters have a choice: Labour, who will probably be both incompetent and repressive, and the “Conservatives”, who have already proven themselves incompetent and repressive. Both parties are as good as controlled by the…”Israel lobby”.
Really? I can think of a number of things of which one could accuse Sunak, but surely not that. Or have I misunderstood the headline?…
Penny Mordaunt got a very high 61.4% vote-share in 2019, and her vote -share has increased every election since she was first elected in 2010, but Portsmouth North has been a “bellwether” seat since 1966, so the chances are that she will lose this time, though she may just be able to buck the trend: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portsmouth_North_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

In the past, there was clear blue water between Con and Lab, at least on some issues, but the Cons cannot now even compete on issues traditionally (if falsely) their own: immigration, defence, law and order, Treasury competence. Etc. They have failed miserably on all of those and more.
That is the core point, surely. I can think of no issue on which the Cons can credibly make a stand, not even on cultural issues such as the trans nonsense, free speech etc. They are, on those topics, so far as bad as Labour, overall.

I suppose that Netanyahu is well-guarded, but so far the only Israeli (ex-) PM to be assassinated (Rabin) was hit by Jewish dissidents, not Arab Palestinians.
The amount of Tommy Robinson followers who are not aware that he is funded by Israel is amazing. They think they are patriots but are really serving Israel Zionist agenda. The real right wing in the U.K. are very few.
The label “far right” (like “right and “left“) is meaningless. Policy is key.
The “Tommy Robinson” crowd are sheep, though they cannot see that. What policies does “Tommy” offer? None, except to —somehow— stop the growth of Islamic or Islamist influence in the UK. Gesture politics, and controlled opposition. Meaningless.
What matters is not, did he break the law?, but the fact that he is expanding his #ToryScum tactics to deceive voters he claims to represent and care about. He is also showing great disdain to his constituents by assuming there are enough thick enough to make the scam worthwhile.
I see that the Manchester Evening News has reported Largan's misleading advertising and I have messaged The Glossop Chronical and Thameside radio to ask if they are covering it, too, to inform his constituents of his duplicity.

Things have changed.
I am 72 and from 1970 to 2017 I voted Tory at every GE. I couldn’t vote for the King of Liars in 2019 so voted LD.
This time I will (tactically) vote Labour for the first time in my life and will never vote Tory again.
There were genuine reasons to favour Con over Lab in, say, 1970, 1974, even 1979 and 1983, though I personally have voted only once, aged —just— 18, in October 1974, and it was not for a System party (my chosen candidate came 4th out of 4 with about 600 votes).
Both major System parties have changed out of all recognition since the 1970s, and are really just corporate facades, indeed to a large extent similar corporate facades, hiding the almost identical core ideologies within.
Do you believe Labour’s shadow home secretary, when she says she’ll stop the boats? pic.twitter.com/60i2f7WItK
Oh, I believe that evil woman all right. She will stop the cross-Channel boats, or most of them. She will do it by setting up places in France where 90%+ of those applying for asylum will simply have their applications rubberstamped. They will then get ferries to the UK.
At present ~1M unwanted immigrants are coming to the UK every year, whether “legally” or not. That is the problem, not the rubber boat mob as such.
The other aspect of the problem we face is that there are large numbers of complete idiots who naively (or actively maliciously) prefer to believe that the UK can absorb millions of mostly uneducated, mostly parasitic, often hostile non-white immigrants without any effect on our way of life, culture, or public services. Some of the idiots even prefer to believe that the influx is something positive…
Incredibly (or maybe not, in view of Britain’s ever-sliding educational standards), no less than 109,000 Twitter twits “follow” Osland’s Twitter/X account.
Your calculations suffer from Hanlon’s Razor.
With 8 million arriving on these shores over the last decade and struggling to build a mere avg 100,000 new homes per year over the same time it’s bloody obvious what the cause is.
There may be a billion or more non-whites in the world who, in principle, might make out a case for UK residence, either on the basis of asylum (under outdated rules) or otherwise. How many houses do Osland and his fellow-idiots think might be required? 500 million? 200 million? (paid for, incidentally, by the British people). That’s before they start to breed, of course. The whole argument these people put forward is a nonsensical one.

In the UK we had Nick Griffin of the BNP. Every time he was on TV his popularity skyrocketed. So they banned him from TV and demonised him in the media and rolled out their controlled opposition / traitor – Nigel Farage. Anyone friendly with him is either a traitor or stupid.
Yep. I refuse to vote Tory on principle. I refuse to be told if I don’t I’m letting labour in. I don’t care. Both labour and Tory are globalist run/uniparty. It’s time to say NO to both and over time, things will change. Voting Tory means that real change, will never be…
Now the “blue sky” Hungarian-origined “thinker” —resident in California at last hearing, having left the UK and taken on U.S. citizenship— opines about the 2024 UK General Election.
He writes that “…somehow I don’t think Sunak does accept the inevitability of defeat.
You don’t get to be in his position, with all the success he has achieved in his career and his life, without exceptional drive and determination. I simply cannot believe that someone that impressive – Oxford, Stanford, Goldman Sachs, Prime Minister within seven years of becoming an MP – is content to just drift out of office without a fight.“
[Daily Mail]
Those words alone show how out of touch “Hilton” is, and how easily dazzled. Yes, Sunak got a degree from Oxford University (after having been at Winchester College, where he became Head Boy, it would be almost surprising had Sunak not gone on to Oxford). So what?
Sunak then went on to Stanford University, and graduated with an MBA. OK, but so what, really?
Indeed, and in all fairness, Hilton’s own academic achievement, coming from his level of poverty or near-poverty in childhood, was more creditable than that of Sunak: Christ’s Hospital (school) on a bursary, followed by Oxford University.
“Hilton” then praises Sunak for having worked (for about 2 years or so) at the Goldman Sachs financial outfit. Not everyone thinks that that is a recommendation, but “Hilton” is no doubt dazzled by the money Goldman Sachs pay some of their staff.
“Hilton” himself was brought up in a fair degree of poverty, by a mother abandoned by her husband; she and her son survived only by reason of the State benefits that “Hilton”, as well-overpaid and useless adviser to Cameron-Levita’s “Conservative” government (2010-2015), later did his best to take away from other poor, sick, and disabled people.
As the Germans say, “put a beggar on a horse and he rides it to death“…
As to Sunak’s money, much of it has come, directly or indirectly, from his marriage to a super-wealthy Indian, daughter of an Indian billionaire. Anyway, as far as I am concerned, I do not, without more, respect money-jugglers. Maybe “Hilton” does.
It must have been galling for “Hilton” to forever be around the wealthy and politically-powerful, including his own wife, Rachel Whetstone [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachel_Whetstone], yet have only the hanger-on’s level of influence, and nowhere near as much wealth, though at Downing Street, “Hilton” was paid or overpaid some £200,000 p.a., (worth maybe £240,000 p.a, in 2024 money). Good pay, yes, but a high salary is not the same as having serious capital.
“Hilton” also forgets to note that Sunak is “in his position” purely because two other idiots, “Boris” Johnson and Liz Truss, had to resign. Sunak (like Truss) has never led his party into an election; the Premiership was simply gifted to him.
“Hilton” goes on to write that ” Now, after years of chaos, Britain seems to be on the right track. But, make no mistake, a Labour government would set things back. What’s needed now from Sunak is energy, aggression and inspiration – and then he could pull off an even greater upset than John Major achieved in 1992.”
Absolutely asinine.
“Hilton”, the not very successful spin-meister, seems to imagine that, if only Sunak and the “Conservatives” were to really attack Starmer and his crew, the electorate will rally round the Cons. A brainless “analysis”, though I agree with Hilton that Starmer really offers nothing but a change of personnel.
As for “Britain seems to be on the right track“, from where does “Hilton” get that idea? It flies in the face of facts flagrantly obvious to anyone with eyes and any perceptiveness at all; Britain is quite obviously not“on the right track“.
A million unwanted non-Europeans, mostly (at best) parasites, entering the UK every year; a health service on its knees; a police service unable or unwilling to do its proper job, but at the same time all too eager to “cosplay” as a poundland Stasi or KGB, snooping on tweets and blogs; poor pay for most, and a continuing squeeze on the State benefits which sustained the young “Hilton” and his mother; a housing crisis caused or made far worse by the all but uncontrolled mass migration invasion; potholed and unrepaired roads and highways; a government throwing money and military support at “Ukraine” (the corrupt, brutal, and shambolic Kiev regime of the Jew Zelensky) and Israel; filthy rivers…it just goes on.
I suppose that the Daily Mail paid “Hilton” well for his little piece of “analysis”, if you can even call it that. Money wasted.
To my mind, whatever Sunak now says will either accomplish nothing to mitigate what must surely be a catastrophic election result for the Con Party, or may well make it all worse for them.
So far, a disastrous General Election announcement, with Sunak all but washed away by heavy rain; a visit to the Titanic museum in Belfast (you couldn’t make it up!); and now the announcement that, if re-elected, the “Conservatives” will reintroduce mandatory 1950s-style conscription (with a few semi-“woke” tweaks) for all (?) 18-y-o young men (and women?).
As I noted on the blog yesterday, the “National Service” idea seems designed to appeal to some kind of “false memory” delusion in some 70-100 year old Con Party voters, rather than being serious policy.
As I noted yesterday, after a date in 1957 no young men born after August 1939 were called-up (drafted), and call-up ceased in 1960 (though a relative few served until 1963).
So someone today would have to be at least 85 to have actually experienced the former “National Service”, which varied much.
For example, one of my uncles served, on an easy and almost 9-5 basis, as a lecturer in the Army Education Corps; his son, my slightly-older cousin, not seen by me since 1970, became a lecturer at Oxford University and then senior lecturer (mainly American Literature, I think) at Edinburgh University; he has apparently also written a number of books on literature, published by Oxford University Press.
Meanwhile, another uncle, circa 1950, was some kind of accountant in the Pay Corps, based in places such as North Wales, as far as I know. Hardly thrilling. Other and less fortunate conscripts, though, found themselves fighting in swamps and mountains against people out to kill them. Korea, Malaya, Cyprus etc.
At any rate, that “National Service” idea alone has probably cost the Con Party a million General Election votes overall.
With everything so wrong in the country, Sunak goes with conscription as his Big Idea?! He really should have stayed in the world of corporate finance, juggling money.
I think that “Hilton” should go home to California, if that is where he now mainly lives, and stop trying to comment on a British society and political landscape which he no longer understands, if he ever did.
Al-Qassam launched about 10-12 long-range rockets, from Rafah, travelling 100-110km to hit Tel Aviv, after a hiatus of 4 months. The Iron dome failed to intercept the rockets, more than 8 direct impacts were made, causing material damage and the ignition of fire. pic.twitter.com/S8plXtmr1B
The importance of that is less in the limited material damage done, and more the fact that, despite the devastation of Gaza, despite the huge number of casualties (mostly civilian), despite the Israeli ground invasion, despite everything, the Hamas organization in Gaza remains able to fire rockets capable of penetrating the defences of Tel Aviv and causing at least some damage.

The Labour Party cannot get through this campaign while remaining so vague and abstract on their plan for public spending cuts. Talking about teeny tiny gains from non-doms and private school fees won't cut it. Everybody knows this.#BBCLauraK
Au contraire, that is exactly what Starmer-Labour can do. Yes, they have no publicly-palatable plan, and secretly are planning to do a Cameron/Osborne Mark 2, but up to the 4th of July they will just rely on the hatred and contempt felt by the voters for Sunak’s hapless bunch of clowns.
Most people want rid of the “Conservatives”; the fact that Labour will also be terrible in government, maybe worse, scarcely impinges. Only 5 and a half weeks left before the General Election. Postal voting will be happening from about 3 weeks from now. Time is not on the side of Sunak and his party.
Goodwin makes the mistake of imagining that the general public is as interested in the minutiae of policy as he himself is.

“Britain is in its worst financial position in 70 years” Bloomberg quotes the director of the Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) Johnson, who said that the next British government will face problems not seen since the 1950s and that politicians have three ways out of the crisis: painful spending cuts, tax hikes to 80 maximum or significant increase in debt.”
“Labour”-label will probably continue to degrade public services, social security etc. The spending cuts of 2010-2015 began, or began to be planned, under Labour’s, Gordon Brown’s, government in the years prior to 2010.

“At the beginning of the MPs’ expenses scandal, in June 2009, The Daily Telegraph reported that Rosindell “claimed more than £125,000 in second home expenses for a flat in London, while designating his childhood home 17 miles away – where his mother lived – as his main address”, and between “2006 and 2008 claimed the maximum £400 a month for food”.[13] [Wikipedia].
Rosindell also blocked the Parliamentary bill that would have stopped animals being used in circuses. What a horrible person.
Sadly, Rosindell’s seat is Romford, Essex, a safe Con Party constituency.

“Thinking about why the Tories have called the election early despite clearly being in for a drubbing, I agree with @AMercouris of the Duran: the entire establishment is most worried not about Tory v Labour but about the possibility of alternative parties making gains, however small.
The more time that goes by, the more the voters realise how much they hate both the Tories and Labour. If these are the only choices, vast swathes of the people will simply stay away from the polls (as they stayed away from the recent local elections). But if there are alternative candidates from Reform and the Workers party, and those parties have the time to organise their campaigns while the war criminals continue to become ever more unpopular, there’s every chance they could win a few seats.
Even without winning seats, they could prevent Labour from getting its landslide by gaining vote shares in many constituencies that Labour hopes to take from the Tories.
Getting a stable Labour government installed on a low turnout seems to be the main aim of the ruling class right now. It’s been clear they’ve been grooming Starmer as the next PM for a long time. He’s 100% their man – a servile lackey who will commit any crime required and an ultra-zionist. And he has the huge advantage of trade union backing at a time when more and more anti-worker measures are going to be implemented and more aggressive wars launched.
A hung parliament would be a nightmare for this agenda, as would a parliament with anti-EU and/or antiwar troublemakers putting pressure on the ‘uniparty’ loyalists and exacerbating the crisis of legitimacy by making embarrassing demands from the back benches.
Anyone considering whether / how to vote should remember that this election has no ability to solve any of our problems, which stem from the capitalist system itself – from the global capitalist crisis of overproduction (and consequent poverty, unemployment and inflation) and from the desperate imperialist war drive.
The only useful thing you can do with your vote is use it to back Workers Party or independent candidates if they STAND AGAINST NATO, OPPOSE THE LABOUR PARTY, AND OPPOSE THE GENOCIDE IN GAZA.
If we can get a few anti-Nato, anti-genocide MPs in Parliament, it will be a major irritation to the establishment, and a permanent reminder to the British people that their will is ignored by the vast majority of their ‘elected representatives’. If we can help deny Labour the huge majority that the corporate media are confidently predicting, so much the better.”
I agree with the basic premise, but not with the conclusion there. If the Con Party can be all but wiped out this year, left with only a risible rump of deadhead MPs, that may unbalance the whole “2 main parties” System scam, leaving a vacuum that social nationalism may then fill, though not immediately (because no real social-national party exists).

“…If such authentic souls, such honest anthroposophists can be found … then an upward movement and dynamic will arise. If such souls do not appear, then decadence will take its inexorable downward course… Today humanity stands before a great crisis: either it will see all civilization collapsing into the abyss, or else spirituality will raise civilization up by the power of the Michael impetus, through which the Christ impetus works, thus continuing, enriching and sustaining it.‘” [Rudolf Steiner 1861-1925].
Five years or so ago, when I wrote the above blog post, I highlighted a number of possible events that might end, or almost end, our present civilization. A possible and possibly contrived pandemic was one, and one of the others was nuclear war.
Since 2019, the push, mainly in the West, for war, especially war with the Russian Federation, has become almost a clamour.
We look at, perhaps particularly, the First World War, and ask “why on Earth did they do it?“, it seems so senseless on looking back. Yet look now: a ridiculous contrived Russian ogre has been conjured into existence, supposedly threatening Central and Western Europe.
The fact that Russian forces have failed even to crush the corrupt and shambolic regime in Kiev seems not to have dented the “Russia threatens us” narrative. The Russians may have been unable to take or destroy Kiev, but they, we are told, now certainly threaten Warsaw, Berlin, Paris, and London.
There again, Russia today is merely and ordinarily nationalist; there is no inherently-expansionist Marxist-Leninist ideology, as there was during the currency of the Soviet Union.
The whole idea is senseless.
More and more powerful missiles and other arms are being given to the “Ukrainians” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev). Only today, a Russian nuclear early-warning station was destroyed.
Be under no illusions: nuclear war on the strategic level might be triggered by only one incident, leading to an intercontinental nuclear exchange within days. Such an event or series of events has been foretold in major staff college war games over the past 60 years.
Were such a catastrophe to happen, the way back for our whole civilization would be long and hard, if it could even take place. Almost everything we know and live among would cease to exist. 99% of the world’s population, certainly Europe’s, would not survive.

“16th century possible murder victim laid to rest at St Mary the Virgin, in South Baddesley, after remains found on Sowley Beach in the New Forest.
A suspected New Forest murder victim was this week buried in a “once-in-a-lifetime” service, some 500 years after he met his end.
The remains of the unknown man were laid to rest about five centuries after he was initially disposed of in a “clandestine” fashion, as revealed by the A&T.
The 25-minute ceremony took place two years after his medieval-era skeleton was found in mysterious circumstances on a beach near South Baddesley.
[Steve West/A&T]
As reported in the A&T, after a lengthy investigation, archaeologists have since concluded that “foul play” may explain how he came to be there.
Tuesday’s special funeral took place at St Mary the Virgin, in South Baddesley. Around 50 attendees – comprising nearby residents, those who had been involved in research and local historians – came to pay their respects.
Mourners were greeted and handed a leaflet titled ‘The Funeral and Burial of the 16th Century Man Known only to God’.
The Very Rev Gordon Wynne conducted the service, which included a medieval hymn before the handmade wooden casket was buried in the church graveyard.
The funeral comes after police were alerted in May 2022 by local resident Graham Coulter who helped excavate the human remains after half a skull became exposed in the mud near the mouth of Lymington River.
Speaking after the ceremony, the chartered surveyor, who lives in Lymington, said: “I think it’s a nice reflection on Christianity and mankind.“It’s very moving. It’s nice people turned up to give him a proper send-off.”
The rare remains – of which 80% of the body was still present – were recovered from Sowley Beach. They were given a radiocarbon dating estimating them to have been buried in AD1450-1650.
An osteoarchaeologist who studied the 5ft 4in (1.63m) skeleton concluded it was likely to have been a 20 to 25-year-old adult male.“

The full report is a good read, though it is disappointing to see that the senior archaeologist at the local council thinks that 1450-1650 comes within the “mediaeval” period. Either the Renaissance or, just about, the early Enlightenment.
It was amusing somehow to read that a person holidaying in the area, and who attended that religious service, was one Kathryn Tudor! Like something from The Morning of the Magicians [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Morning_of_the_Magicians].
Mrs. Tudor, however, is another who seems to imagine that the period in question was “mediaeval” (as does the local newspaper). Our English education must be to blame. G.K. Chesterton expressed a similar irritation to mine via his fictional Father Brown detective-priest, and that was a century ago.
Have I identified an historical gap in the market for detectives in literature? 1450 to 1650. I have never heard of a fictional detective operating in those centuries.
Well, that story is a delightful English vignette. Somehow charming, intriguing, and unsullied by contact with too much of England in 2024. More like something out of M.R. James [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M._R._James].
“A second haul of alcohol has been stolen from a Lymington store, which has now seen more than £1,000 worth taken over the two incidents.
As reported by the A&T yesterday (Thursday) 21 bottles of champagne valued at £717 were taken from Marks & Spencer on St Thomas Street on Tuesday 30th April, and CCTV pictures were released of a pair wanted by police.
Now officers have made a second appeal over an incident at the same store between 1.10pm and 1.40pm on Wednesday 15th May, when the eight bottles of champagne and spirits valued at £326 were taken.“
How time flies. When I first heard of Rupert Sheldrake, in the early 1980s, he was a still-youthful 39 or 40, and I was in my mid-twenties. Now he is 81, nearly 82, incredibly, and I myself am no longer young (67).
“I think it’s dangerous that people should be allowed by our liberal societies to put that kind of nonsense into currency” [John Maddox].
You can see the kind of thinking that leads to those people who doubt orthodox views, whether re. “climate change” aka “global warming”, or re. the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic, or other matters, being pilloried, while others (msm talking heads, scribblers etc) parrot System orthodoxy, and say that the dissidents or freethinkers should be incarcerated, deprived of medical services, bankrupted etc.
Who has contributed more to science and to this country, Sheldrake, or Maddox? I say Sheldrake.
Incidentally, I see that Sheldrake’s wife, Jill Purce, is also an interesting personality (I had not known of her until today): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jill_Purce.
“The NHS has today been accused of providing ‘inadequate’ pain relief to women who have suffered agonising childbirths.
Under health service guidance, new mums can be discharged just a day after undergoing a C-section or vaginal birth.
But they are advised to take just paracetamol or ibuprofen to manage symptoms.
Campaigners and doctors slammed the move, claiming it was yet another example of women’s pain issues in healthcare being ignored or underplayed.“
[Daily Mail]
Still clapping?
The fact is that we now have health rationing in the UK. There has always been an element of that but it is now becoming impossible to ignore. It is not OK to simply repeat the old slogans of “our NHS” etc and how the rest of the world supposedly envies it (which is not true in respect of most advanced countries).
I am totally in favour of “free at point of use”, but the existing NHS model is just not working. Resourcing is one factor, but attitude and ethos is another one, and one that must be addressed. Also, pervasive maladministration.
The elephant in the room, though, is mass immigration. A population of 56 million when I was growing up has become one, officially, of 65 million, and probably 70 million in reality, with about a million more coming in every single year. Something has to give. Various things are giving, are cracking. Health provision is one of those.

Do you see the way things are going?

Look at Islington North. Symbolic. The very constituency represented for 41 years by a white man who is also a socialist (like Jack London, though Jack London said “I am a socialist, but a white man first“, unlike Corbyn…) and who was Leader of the Labour Party.
Corbyn’s replacement as Labour candidate— a non-European who is a health profiteer, along with his parents. I bet he is pro-Israel, too.

SUNAK WARNS LABOUR'S IMMIGRATION POLICIES COULD HARM ECONOMY
In his inaugural campaign speech leading up to the British general election on July 4th, Prime Minister Sunak asserted that only his party could be trusted to manage the economy and secure borders effectively.
Ha ha! Has the little Indian money-juggler somehow failed to understand that, under “Conservative” misgovernment, immigration is running at about a million a year now, out of which “only” about 50,000 are coming here on small boats (in reality, often ferried in by UK Border Force, RNLI, and Royal Navy)?
Has Sunak not understood that 80% of “asylum-seekers”, even those entering in backs of trucks or on rubber boats, are eventually given “Leave to Remain” under a system and legal framework which came from the 1950s and is now totally ridiculous and out of date ?
No, Sunak knows all that. He just hopes that the British people do not.
Labour, of course, will just do the same but in a different way, by allowing almost all to enter the UK “legally”. Reality? No difference in terms of end-result.
Labour confirms it will give 16 yr olds the vote. Here's Labour's plan to rewire Britain's democracy 👇👇https://t.co/UA2ukmAI16
Persons aged 16 are far more likely to vote Labour, at present (about 90%); thus Labour hopes to entrench its likely large majority of 2024 in 2029.
“Man proposes, God disposes“, though. Those 16-18 y-o voters of 2024, and their successors, might go another way completely after 5 years of (as I firmly expect) useless and yet repressive Starmer-Labour government.
On the wider point, if Goodwin is correct and Starmer intends to prevent any real democratic revolt against his planned “woke” tyranny, then he must expect the consequences. As John F. Kennedy said, “those who make peaceful revolution impossible make violent revolution inevitable“.
Imagine, if you will, Britain in 2034, after 10 years of Starmer-Labour.
A population of about 80 million or more, more non-European than white, at least in the main cities and towns; the country in an irreversible economic slide, with pay very low, and with State benefits equally low and restricted to ever-smaller groups; pensions not keeping pace with inflation; the roads scarcely repaired; the NHS even worse than under the “Conservatives”, and become a world leader in…waiting lists, poor treatment, and negligence; ever-greater numbers of blacks and browns (etc) flooding in, but the numbers officially concealed; Jewish-Zionist supremacism ever-more evident, but any criticism muzzled by even more restrictive and repressive “hate speech” laws.
Needless to say, by 2034, let alone 2044, the central areas of the cities will have become almost no-go areas for real Brits, as crime and disorder take hold. London is already halfway there.
In those circumstances, any measures taken by the British people themselves would be justified.

Skellefteå is in the far north. Two days ago, three Syrians attacked a man in Kalmar in the Southeast, kicked his head, set his hair on fire and tortured him by drilling his leg with an electric drill.
So that writes off the votes of the tiny minority of the young who might have voted Con. Beyond that, this is not a serious policy idea, more an attempt to shore up the collapsing Con vote among those 70+.
National Service ended over 60 years ago (gradually from 1957, though anyone born after 30 September 1939 was exempted). The last call-up was at the end of 1960; the last conscriptee was discharged in 1963.
In other words, only those (some) people of 85+, and who served under legal compulsion, would still be alive today.
Incidentally, who do you think will be taking all available jobs while the UK-born 18-21 y-o contingent are polishing boots, being beasted on assault courses, or being taught how to shoot hostile targets and not the local farmworkers? That’s right— the recent immigrants.
Just the way to achieve “community cohesion”…
This is some kind of pathetic appeal to misplaced nostalgia, designed (perhaps stupidly) to appeal to the very elderly (most of whom still vote Con anyway).
A few years ago, I would have supported this, but with all of the Ukraine/Israel war etc and my eyes open to government propaganda, I'm not sure if I'd support my son signing up to be exploited as propaganda government fodder. https://t.co/VKDyNVcr3P
You will not get much of interest from the likes of that “Akunjee” character.
Only the most awake (not “woke”) people understand that the NWO/ZOG System has chosen Starmer as its puppet to become an “elected” (via rigged selection and election procedures, FPTP voting etc) dictator, casting Britain into the pit of migration invasion, mass race-mixing and mixed breeding, and gigantic repression on free speech, dwarfing anything yet seen.

I still cannot understand why Sunak went out in the pouring rain to announce GE 2024. Was he trying to show the population that he is stoic, or a tough guy of some kind? What it said to me is that he is an absolute idiot, for all his paper qualifications; someone who does not know enough to put on a raincoat when it is raining hard, or at least have someone hold an umbrella over him. Someone such as that has not the basic nous to be Prime Minister.
Actually, what is the point of “National Service” even if the scheme could be enforced? In any serious war with Russia (the scenario constantly being pushed; no other exists), there will probably be a nuclear exchange before very long. The UK would be a, perhaps the, prime target for Russian attack. The “National Service” “chocolate soldiers” would be but pillars of ash long before being deployed anywhere outside the UK.
Come to think of it, how exactly would UK troops on any large scale be deployed? Both the air force and navy are now very small, and the air lift capacity very limited as well. As for the Royal Navy, its new aircraft carrier could carry a large number of troops, but it is not even defended by many naval fighter aircraft. It would probably be sunk long before it got to the Black Sea or Baltic.
I was out early today, before 0700 hrs, and the English countryside was arguably at its best in the fresh breeze and sun of the early summer (though I also very much love the autumn).

Antonov hits the nail on the head. Washington's reckless actions are only pushing us closer to conflict. Instead of prolonging this proxy war, it's time to think about real diplomacy and the future of US-Russia relations. Peace should be the priority, not endless military aid.

Jew-Zionist hypocrite Myerson, whose recent evidence on oath as a witness on the losing side of a significant legal case [Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon, and Cantor] was given little if any weight by a High Court judge, should be removed in short order as Recorder (p/t judge), and also disbarred, in my opinion.
Incidentally, Myerson belongs to the very organization that complained (via another Jew barrister, of whom I had previously never even heard) about me in 2014— “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”]; he also belongs to the malicious and conspiratorial “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], which was behind other contrived and malicious complaints against me, such as the one that resulted in my being put on trial in November 2023.
Raus!
Agreed. The Lord Chancellor and Lady Chief Justice must act to stop Myerson – who holds judicial office – constantly attacking a political leader who is Jewish because Myerson dislikes his views on Israel.
Myerson is undermining public confidence in judicial independence.

As to Mark Lewis, he is an appallingly bad (bad in more than one sense) lawyer. He should be struck off the solicitors’ roll.
Lewis was always a self-publicist first and foremost. The Jewish lobby so embedded in the “British” msm has always given him a free ride, publicizing any legal successes (mostly very easy wins, such as the “Jack Monroe” defamation suit against Katie Hopkins), but keeping silent about the many times when Lewis has failed.
As previously blogged, I (unlike the seemingly well-meaning James Wilson) have no sympathy for the Jew-Zionist defendants. One has committed suicide, the other two are now as good as bankrupt, with one apparently likely to lose his family house, unless (and here’s the rub) he sues Mark Lewis, and possibly/probably the firm of which Lewis is a partner, Patron Law, in professional negligence and/or otherwise.
To recycle Lewis’s own arrogant boast, but with a twist, “someone can be a fanatical Jew-Zionist twister and lawyer, but at least they can be a bankrupt and struck-off one“…
I agree with Goodwin. What Mackinlay is suffering and has suffered, I should not wish on (most of) my worst enemies. However, it is not wrong or in bad taste to note that, throughout his time as MP, Mackinlay has voted, consistently, in Parliament to reduce social security/”welfare” benefits, including those paid to the sick and disabled.
Mackinlay and his wife have high incomes, and many “perks” etc. Many sick and disabled people struggle by without such privilege. I wonder whether his recent experiences have in any way changed his outlook on the life-challenges facing less-affluent people in the UK?

For once, Sunak, the little Indian money-juggler, is telling the literal truth. Britain is a train about to hit the buffers at high speed. How much longer can a country absorb a million unwanted and mostly useless (at best) immigrants every single year? Forget the brainless Rwanda “plan”— that will only affect, at most, 1% of immigrants (about 10,000 a year), even if not cancelled by Starmer-Labour.
The big picture is that Britain has been condemned to decline by its own secret cabals and ruling circles. This did not start today, or yesterday, or last year; it has been in train for decades, and certainly since 1989. Those secret ruling circles are running down Europe, including the UK, and trying to build up China and the other Pacific Rim countries, and North America.
In their (Coudenhove-Kalergi) plan, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan, Europe is set to decline, and to become mixed-race (white/black/brown), and ruled mainly by Jewish or (quite often) part-Jewish (and always pro-Israel) persons— examples include Rothschilds, “Boris” Johnson, Theresa May, David Cameron-Levita, Gideon “George” Osborne, Zac Goldsmith etc, to give a few examples only).
The public of the UK has been and is being conditioned to accept gradually declining standards in all areas, from legislative probity to administrative efficiency to road repair, to educational levels, to public order and policing. Pay. Living standards. State benefits. Pensions. All areas.
Also, being conditioned to accept absurd and arbitrary “policies”, “laws”, regulations” etc, as tried out during the Covid “panicdemic”/”scamdemic: stupid “rules” such as “social distancing”, “the Rule of Six”, the “stay at home” mandates and “lockdown” mandates; the fake and harmful “vaccines”. Etc.

Bonkers that the leader of a government that has imported literally millions of foreign citizens in a couple of years is pretending that our primary threats come from far away. Project Fear is the last refuge of the charlatan.
Time is running out for Sunak. People may not like or even trust Starmer and Labour, but Sunak and the misnamed “Conservatives” have used up all their credit with the public. To change metaphors, this government or, better, misgovernment is running on empty.
Here we are in mid-May 2024, and the latest a general election can be held is in January 2015, meaning that it has to be called by some date in December 2024, so 7 months at most.
Sunak is, at this point, not trying to “win” the next general election, just trying to mitigate the damage. If he is left with even, say, 150 MPs, rather than 100, or 50, or 30, he will be satisfied. The most recent polls have indicated a Conservative Party cadre in the Commons of as few as 13, incredibly.
The ruling cabals behind both main System parties are, for that reason, not too concerned which of those two parties, or facades, “wins” the 2024, or any other, General Election, because those hidden puppetmasters will ensure that the basic direction of travel stays the same in either case.
Look at how both Sunak and Starmer both fell over themselves to support Israel’s Gaza slaughter, in Starmer’s case even saying that it was OK for the Israeli Jews to cut off water and food to the Gazan civilians, most of whom were and are women and children.

Sunak’s government of clowns really is running on empty.
In 2022 Natalie Elphicke used a debate on P&O sacking 800 workers & replacing them with cheaper foreign workers as an opportunity to attack trade unions.
Natalie Elphicke pretended to stay loyal to her foolish husband while he was on trial for pathetic minor sex crimes, divorced him after he was convicted and imprisoned, and arranged to replace him as Conservative Party MP for Dover. Now, realizing that the game is up, she defects to Labour! About as trustworthy as any triple agent…
Mick Lynch last year: "If you're coming to the electorate with a message of change, you've got to show that there will be real change. And that's what the country is crying out for"
Having said that, Natalie Elphicke is unarguably right about Sunak’s bad joke government. The very roads are like something out of the Ukraine now— potholed, rutted, unrepaired or, at best, poorly-patched.
I started to comment on the blog years ago about how, not overnight but over 10-15 or more years (even pre-dating “Conservative” governments post-2010) “nothing works in Britain these days”. The newspapers started to say the same a couple of years ago. Now, hardly anyone would argue about it.
It will be interesting to see whether Natalie Elphicke, if not adopted as Labour candidate for the Dover constituency, stands as Independent. It might be tight between Con and Lab anyway, but with Reform UK in the mix (and very likely to do well), and Natalie Elphicke potentially standing as Independent, it could be a very close contest indeed. She might even win.
Come to think of it, Natalie Elphicke might have done better to have defected to Reform UK, which would probably have made her its Dover candidate, and with a reasonable shot at winning in a three-way split.

[Kensington Roof Gardens, London, which date back to the 1930s]
London has large areas of unused roof space which could be turned into green space; not necessarily all open to the public, but still a haven for birds and a recreational resource for individual people, families, employee groups etc.
I had such ideas back in the mid/late 1970s, when I happened to see some of the views from the roof areas of tall buildings: a couple of the then-tall buildings of the City of London (now dwarfed by the new high buildings, of course), the British Gas building at Marble Arch etc; both during the daytime and at night.
Since those times, others with similar ideas but more resources have actually been able to make a few projects a reality. There remains huge scope.

“Rwanda has admitted it cannot guarantee how many people it will take from the UK under Rishi Sunak’s deportation scheme.
The east African country did not give assurances that the estimated 52,000 asylum seekers in the UK who are eligible to be sent to Kigali would be accepted, instead saying it would be “thousands”.”
[The Guardian]
As I predicted on the blog recently. Not only are even the maximum numbers, as planned, pathetic compared to the numbers actually entering the UK (even “illegally”) but there is no guarantee that Rwanda government policy will not change, or the government be replaced by one unwilling to continue the agreement.
In any case, once Labour replaces the Conservative Party as UK Government, sometime within the next 8 months, the Rwanda idea will end up where it always was going to end up— in the dustbin.

"A record number of more than 7,500 migrants crossed the Channel in the first four months of the year, 27% higher than the same period in 2023 and 13% higher than 2022". On the latest numbers 👇👇👇https://t.co/R0ciMBTXGh
Where Goodwin goes wrong is in assuming that the Rwanda “plan” is workable, whereas, even if, on its premises, it were to work perfectly, and so be the means of deporting all “illegal” migrant-invaders, it would not touch those “processed” and then allowed to stay, and they are the vast majority of the illegals processed at present.
Neither would the Rwanda plan touch the “legal” immigrants (and they are 20x the number of the “illegals”), meaning that the net result of the Rwanda “plan”, even if it were to work perfectly, would be that about 1% of all immigrants arriving at present might be deported.
The puzzle is, not so much that the Rwanda “plan” is being pushed by the present doomed government party, but that Matt Goodwin is also pushing it, and Farage, and Reform UK. Some kind of “controlled opposition” scam, yet again, as seen with both UKIP and Brexit Party, the idea being to forestall any real potential social-national upsurge.

I am beginning to think that the “safety margin” is being eroded to such an extent that a real superpower war might be triggered in the near or foreseeable future; such a war would go nuclear, almost certainly. We would then be in a situation which might lead to a devastation few of us want.

“After stopping a mugger and protecting his girlfriend, a Marine reflected on his actions and decided the criminal deserved an apology.
To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown Savannah night before last. Date: 2010-09-27, 1:43 am. E.S.T.
I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my girlfriend, threatening our lives. You also asked for my girlfriend’s purse and earrings. I can only hope that you somehow come across this rather important message.
First, I’d like to apologize for your embarrassment; I didn’t expect you to actually crap in your pants when I drew my pistol after you took my jacket.. The evening was not that cold, and I was wearing the jacket for a reason.. my girlfriend was happy that I just returned safely from my 2nd tour as a Combat Marine in Afghanistan ..
She had just bought me that Kimber Custom Model 1911 .45 ACP pistol for my birthday, and we had picked up a shoulder holster for it that very evening. Obviously you agree that it is a very intimidating weapon when pointed at your head … isn’t it?!
I know it probably wasn’t fun walking back to wherever you’d come from with crap in your pants. I’m sure it was even worse walking bare-footed since I made you leave your shoes, cell phone, and wallet with me. [That prevented you from calling or running to your buddies to come help mug us again].
After I called your mother or “Momma” as you had her listed in your cell, I explained the entire episode of what you’d done. Then I went and filled up my gas tank as well as those of four other people in the gas station, — on your credit card. The guy with the big motor home took 153 gallons and was extremely grateful!
I gave your shoes to a homeless guy outside Vinnie Van Go Go’s, along with all the cash in your wallet. [That made his day!] I then threw your wallet into the big pink “pimp mobile” that was parked at the curb ….. after I broke the windshield and side window and keyed the entire driver’s side of the car.
Earlier, I managed to get in two threatening phone calls to the DA’s office and one to the FBI, while mentioning President Obama as my possible target. The FBI guy seemed really intense and we had a nice long chat (I guess while he traced your number etc.).
In a way, perhaps I should apologize for not killing you … but I feel this type of retribution is a far more appropriate punishment for your threatened crime. I wish you well as you try to sort through some of these rather immediate pressing issues, and can only hope that you have the opportunity to reflect upon, and perhaps reconsider, the career path you’ve chosen to pursue in life.. Remember, next time you might not be so lucky. Have a good day!
Thoughtfully yours, Semper Fi...”

Smug Jewish woman living in South-East England blames the victim of Israeli-Jewish state terrorism for the said Palestinian civilian victim having been made homeless.
According to the Jewish woman, Israel cannot be blamed. After all, all it has done is use advanced weaponry such as missiles to destroy the homes of about a million people, and kill tens of thousands, mostly women and children.
Why should Jews in Israel (or those in the UK who support the Gaza “operation”) be blamed for that? Puzzling, nicht wahr?
Naturally, the Palestinian Arab civilians are themselves to blame if Israeli forces have killed or wounded them, and/or destroyed their homes…to say anything else would probably be called “antisemitic“…
MiningWatch Canada is estimating that “[Three] billion tons of mined metals and minerals will be needed to power the energy transition” – a “massive” increase especially for six critical minerals: lithium, graphite, copper, cobalt, nickel and rare earth minerals
Mining requires the extraction of solid ores, often after removing vast amounts of overlying rock. Then the ore must be processed, creating an enormous quantity of waste – about 100 billion tonnes a year, more than any other human-made waste stream.
18,740 pounds of purified rock to produce 2.2 pounds of vanadium 35,275 pounds of ore for 2.2 pounds of cerium 110,230 pounds of rock for 2.2 pounds of gallium 2,645,550 pounds of ore to get 2.2 pounds of lutecium Also staggering amounts of ore are needed for other metals.
The potential demand for rare metals is exponential. We are already consuming over two billion tonnes of metals every year — the equivalent of more than 500 Eiffel Towers a day.
As rare metals have become ubiquitous in green and digital technologies, the exceedingly toxic sludge they produce has been contaminating water, soil, the atmosphere, and the flames of blast furnaces.
I have seen the destruction of mountains, lakes and pristine waterways all in the name of #GreenEnergy. A recent report by the Blacksmith Institute identifies the mining industry as the second-most-polluting industry in the world. Soon to be Number # 1 Why? Green energy.
Wind turbines guzzle more raw materials than previous technologies: ‘For an equivalent installed capacity, solar and wind facilities require up to 15 times more concrete, 90 times more aluminum, and 50 times more iron, copper, and glass than fossil fuels or nuclear energy.
If you’ve gotten this far still believing that renewables are clean and green, well, I have a bridge to sell you. We thought we could free ourselves from the shortages, tensions, and crises created by our appetite for oil and coal.
"There's little mass public enthusiasm for Starmer’s Labour which is often enjoying an upsurge of support because many Brits are staying at home, turning away from politics & hunkering down, no longer believing anybody has the answer to Britain’s problems"https://t.co/SpatdyMnN4

People are totally sick and tired of the “Conservative” Party, and cannot wait to stamp on it. Labour has very little real support, but is preferred by default. The expected near wipeout of the Conservative Party will happen (I believe), but once it has happened, the same problems will confront this country, and Labour, under Jewish/Israel puppet Starmer, has no answers.
At present it looks as though Starmer-Labour will continue to give unbridled support to the Israeli state and the UK Jewish lobby, continue to support the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev, and fail to stop the migration-invasion (but will simply rubberstamp “applications” so the invasion does not continue to make the news broadcasts or the front pages of the popular Press).
The expected Labour “elected” dictatorship will also crack down even more on free speech in the UK.

“Kyiv’s indifference to dead soldiers undermines the morale of Ukrainians The number of dead Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers is so great that their remains cannot be identified.
n February, Zelensky announced Ukrainian Armed Forces losses of 31,000 people, but US estimates put the number much higher, with about 70,000 Ukrainian soldiers killed by August last year.
Many of those listed as missing were captured by Russian troops. However, most died and have not yet been identified. This hits the already undermined morale of Ukraine, according to the West.
Discontent among the civilian population is growing. Last October, a major protest took place in Kyiv. Relatives of soldiers demand answers from the authorities. Confirming a death is especially problematic when Ukrainian officials do not have a body, but even when they do, it can be a long and arduous process. DNA testing is patchy. Relatives are trying to get around the bureaucracy. They go from morgue to morgue, sometimes with the help of volunteers, examining bodies and trying to identify them first from photographs and then asking relevant family members for genetic samples. And even if they have proof of death, they face a trial and wait for a decision of two to six months. The authorities are delaying the process. After all, if the fact of death is established, they have to pay the family of the deceased 15 million hryvnia, or about $386,000 in installments, writes the New York Times.“

Health authorities have admitted that mRNA jabs can cause potentially fatal heart issues, and published post-mortems have recorded heart-related vaccine deaths.
Despite this, not one mainstream news outlet has looked at the role covid vaccinations could have played in the huge increase in heart problems. Instead, our health watchdog, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), continues to call vaccine-induced myocarditis and pericarditis ‘rare’, despite admitting a 90 per cent under-reporting rate (it could be as high as 99 per cent), and continues to blame SARS-CoV-2 infection.
This is a disingenuous assessment, according to top US cardiologist and epidemiologist Peter McCullough.”

An important speech which challenges the current global dogma on immigration. In sharing such a video, one cannot avoid being criticized but I share it nonetheless for it makes a powerful case against accepting an unlimited number of migrants into a host country.
I was unaware that Amsterdam is now 56% migrant. That figure does not even include all migrants who arrived over the past 50 years, or their offspring.
Very sad. When I first and briefly visited the Netherlands, aged maybe 8, in 1964 or 1965, there were no migrants, effectively.
When I returned alone, in 1975, aged 18, there were few. Later, on trips in the 1980s, Dutch friends of my family were complaining about the behaviour of the few (I think Turks, or possibly others from Turkey) who had somehow moved to their part of Amsterdam (a relatively-new suburb in or by North Amsterdam, Amsterdam-Noord): thefts of bicycles, littering etc— maybe “petty”, but already slowly changing their decent (and fairly new) neighbourhood into a declining and less pleasant one.
My last visit to the Netherlands, other than using Schiphol airport a number of times, was in the mid-1980s. More recently, I heard from Dutch friends how things had changed, and not for the better. Drugs, crime generally, an immigrant takeover in some parts of the city etc. This all co-incided with economic problems, housing shortages (mass immigration again), considerable job insecurity, and a general cultural decline.
Sad.
As with the Swedes, the Dutch made the mistake of allowing decent tolerance to become indecent licence, and of allowing a kind welcome for a few non-Europeans to become an open invitation for any and all, millions of them.
Britain made, and is still making, the same or similar mistakes, and is also indoctrinating its young people with the same pathetic and weak pseudo-ideology that is eroding white Europe from within.
Incidentally, I just saw this, about WW2 bombing of Amsterdam-Noord:
The Fokker factories were the 17 July 1943 bombings’ goal, but the bombs of the United States Army Air Forces fell on the surrounding residential areas, causing 158 deaths and 119 seriously injured as a result.
The British’ Royal Air Force and Free French Air Forces both did another attempt to bomb the factory on 25 and 28 July, resulting in the death of 200 citizens in total by the three raids.[2]
Only the British Forces managed to bomb the targeted airplane factory, all other bombs fell on residential areas in Amsterdam-Noord. This is the heaviest air bombardment that ever hit Amsterdam. 106 houses were destroyed, 206 houses heavily damaged and 676 houses suffered glass and roof damage. Every year a memorial ceremony takes place on 17 July at De Nieuwe Noorder cemetery.”

“A Zimbabwean asylum seeker who was jailed for possession of a hammer and racked up more than 60 convictions for drugs, robbery and assault has been granted leave to stay in the UK.
Zimbabwean Ashley Simbarashe Maparura has amassed a ‘dreadful catalogue’ of 68 convictions across several counties, a court heard.
The 34-year-old thug arrived in the UK around 2017 and quickly became involved in serious crimes including drugs, robbery and assault.
But in spite of his appalling criminal record, he was granted leave to remain in the country two months ago.“
[Daily Mail]
The “Readers’ Comments” appended to that Daily Mail report show the level of public anger around such issues: look at this one—
(“Moons12345Northwest, United Kingdom 4 hours ago. Super , which of the barge protesters the other day will take him home, feed and house him for the next couple of years ? Please step forward you all seem very keen to support this type of person ? Any takers – no didn’t think so !“)
I doubt that such as Zoe Gardner (“@ZoeJardiniere” on Twitter/X) will be volunteering, despite having made a career out of supporting the migration-invasion of the UK. https://www.linkedin.com/in/zoe-gardner-8545b479/.
People of that sort sit, usually in leafy affluent areas, promoting the migration-invasion of Europe, including the UK, while “outsourcing” the consequent misery of the collapsing “multicultural” dystopia to others— the poorer people of this country.
At present, somewhere between three-quarters of a million and over a million immigrants are arriving in the UK each year. The vast majority, almost all, remain, though a couple of hundred of thousand people (but mostly real British people) are leaving each year, mostly to go to Australia, New Zealand, Canada, France, Spain. The foreign influx in terms of population change is about 1M-1.5M. Every single year.
Few of those (maybe 5%, if that) are arriving in “small boats” (actually, ferried from just off the coast of France by the RNLI, Coastguard, Border Force, and Royal Navy, all of which organizational names are now a self-parody).
The flood of “dependent relatives”, “spouses”, “fiances/fiancees”, “students”, “asylum-seekers” and “highly skilled workers” (Indians who can work a computer) continues apace. About 3,000, every single day.
One of the worst aspects of both central and local government in the UK is the apparent inability of both politicians and officials to think things through. If we do this, what happens to that and that and that down the line?
Forget the Rwanda Plan, which is an object lesson in present-day UK governmental futility. Only applies to a few percent of immigrants anyway, and will only ever be able to deport a few hundred a week at best (and at huge cost per deportee and in toto), while thousands each week are arriving on the cross-Channel route alone.
Incidentally, about 80% of “asylum-seekers” are allowed to remain anyway, once “processed”.
The pathetic Rwanda “plan” is in any case going to be scrapped by the expected Labour Party “elected” dictatorship, which will be the Government of the UK by early next year at latest.
So we are living in a country where the population is changing fast, and not for the better.
By 2034, another 10M or more, maybe another 15M+ will have arrived. Most will be effectively unskilled, most will be more or less parasitic, quite a substantial minority will be hostile or criminal, many will not even speak, read, or write basic English, and the UK has nowhere even to warehouse these masses of unwanted invaders.
Meanwhile, the British people are becoming poorer, suffering ever-lower living standards, are unable, most of them, to buy or even rent suitable accommodation, and are sharing their ever-poorer, ever-less pleasant cities and towns with a multiracial, multicultural, polyglot mixture of peoples, mostly from the most backward countries of the world.
“World thinktank Globsec reckons a “sudden drop” in aid packages to Ukraine from the West could be the trigger for a Russian victory. The organisation says it would leave an “actual nuclear threat” in Russia’s hands after its withdrawal from nuclear deterrence treaties. Those nuclear threats may continue to grow as the aftershock of Ukraine’s war loss spreads rapidly through Europe.“
[Daily Mirror]
The propaganda against Russia continues, with the now-usual claims that Russia wants to invade Western Europe etc. Oh, and the also-now-usual fake “parallels” with the 1930s and Germany’s expansionist policy then.
I wonder what cabals are behind this incessant push for war?
NWO. ZOG.
That Mirror report, though, does admit that we are on the brink of Russian victory in Ukraine. As this blog has said for over 2 years now, Russia cannot lose this war, and will not lose it.

I have not taken much interest in the contest.

Indeed, look at Sadiq Khan himself. Plainly not up to the job.
Whatever your feelings about it, the Britain of our childhood is just a memory, never to return, thanks to uncontrolled and unfettered immigration. Immigration which the public have never been asked if they want, and which increases every year against the majority will.
I certainly do not endorse all of the political positions of Laurence Fox, but how can the accuracy of his view above be denied?

After 14 years of Conservative/coalition government record numbers of people are going to food banks, pulling out their own teeth for lack of an NHS dentist and living with their parents because they can't afford to buy their own property.#Newsnight@DavidGHFrost@PaulEmbery
Yesterday I saw a violent racist attack in London when a black woman assaulted an elderly white man on a bus, shouting "You white f**k!" at him. What's happening to #London?#Newsnight#LondonElections2024
London started to go that way long ago, in the 1980s. Worse now, of course.
Sir John Curtice: “The idea that the Tory Party can advance their causes by saying ‘We’re terribly sorry, we know we gave you 3 PMs- none of who were any good – but we now want you to give us another 5 years with a fourth untrusted leader’ will be an impossible sell”#Newsnightpic.twitter.com/7sdjddgCea
Hard to think of any type of person seriously deciding to vote Con at GE 2024, any type of person except some totally unaware and comfortably-off “senior citizen”, probably at least 80 years old, whose ideas about politics and the world come from such a source as the Daily Express.
I despise and distrust present-day Labour, especially under Starmer and his fellow Israel-puppets, but I feel that the necessity now is to stamp on the Conservative Party so hard that it pretty much ceases to exist.
Labour, as likely “elected” (by default) dictatorship, is a looming danger, but will have to be faced. There might even be some kind of race/culture/socio-economic civil war down the line. Not now, though; later.
Kill off one major System party and it will weaken the System as a whole, because that structure relies on a ping-pong between two large parties effectively under similar control but presenting dissimilar facades to the public.
Sadiq Khan confronted over people "running around with machetes" on the streets of London earlier this week:
“I think the Tory candidate should stop watching The Wire."
At least the Conservative Party candidate, Susan Hall, seems to live in some version of the real world, whereas Sadiq Khan is evidently living in some anachronistic “New Labour” bubble of total unreality.
I have not lived or worked in the London area for over 20 years, and have not lived in near-Central London for about 26 years, but just take a look at the Evening Standard, or My London. Almost every day there is a machete attack, or a sword rampage (as yesterday), either by (and usually) black/brown drug gangs or similar hooligans, or (as seems to have been the case yesterday) by some home-grown lunatic. As for less sensational everyday stabbings (often homicides), there are several every single day.
The fact is that London is no longer even a zoo, but more like a wild and uncontrolled jungle.
Sadiq Khan seems to be the only possible victor. The latest YouGov poll has Khan on 47%, with Susan Hall on 25%. I suppose that that accounts for his arrogant refusal to engage on that TV show. He probably only attended as a pseudo-democratic fig-leaf.
Admittedly, Susan Hall seems to be a fairly poor candidate, but Khan has proven that he cannot do the job. Despite that, he will undoubtedly get “elected” again. “Democracy”…
It’s having a devastating effect on the educational outcomes of a big and growing group of working class kids. They’re almost forgotten, because they’re not on the streets. But their living conditions are Victorian, often sharing one room with their parents, siblings, shared…
We came across the story of one promising kid in Southwark who was about to sit his GCSEs. He’d been in temporary accomm for some time. A council house was found for him in Romford. He had to move straight away. Consequently he couldn’t sit his exams.
Yes, but all that, including the housing crisis, is downstream of the mass immigration or migration invasion crisis, without which there would be no “housing crisis” (etc).
The “refugees welcome” dimwits, the pro-immigration idiots etc, always say that the “solution” is to “build more houses” on whatever is left of our green and pleasant land. Really? When about a million immigrants of every type are entering the UK every year? When, on the basis of present law, literally hundreds of millions might have a “legal right” to claim asylum here?
Most of Britain’s socio-economic problems either stem from mass immigration, or have a very strong element relating to the enormous influx of mostly non-Europeans to our shores.

So Gary Lineker’s colleagues stood up and were counted when he was dropped from MOTD? So where’s Sangita’s colleagues James O’Brien, Carol Vorderman etc? https://t.co/GTnqVMAPw3
LBC, as blogged previously, is owned (via a network of UK and offshore companies) by a Jew; indeed, by a very pro-Israel Jew. I note that most of the significant personnel, including presenters, are now Jewish; the few who are not (Iain Dale, Nick Ferrari) are mostly and generally pro-Israel.
Ecce the “free mass media” we hear so much about…
A train driver gave food to this dog at the station. The dog remembered the train, & the engineer brought food regularly. It's worth seeing his joy. Someone cannot make every being happy, but kindness always makes a being happy. pic.twitter.com/7Y8n50IdKh

"While 81% Britain’s pensioners and 69% of the over-50s feel patriotic, among Britain’s 18-24-year-olds this figure collapses to just 39%. What lies behind these numbers?"https://t.co/FJW9MXceeT
“What lies behind these numbers?” Er… just maybe…”reality”?
That, as well as the fact that a very large proportion of teenagers in the UK in 2024 are not really British anyway.

Yes…in the USA you may have, in theory, Constitutionally-“guaranteed” “free speech”, but the theory fails when the facts intrude, i.e. Jewish-Zionist employers sacking people for their social or political views, or Israel-connected organizations making malicious complaints to employers, professional regulators etc.
In Odessa, a warehouse with grenades from the USA that had just been delivered was destroyed. Maybe even within just the adopted aid package. The 155 mm shells arrived in the morning from Romania by sea. A detonation is currently taking place and a fire is breaking out. The SBU… pic.twitter.com/oDiHvvqmPg
