Ukraine

As I have blogged several times, the Russians could have taken Kiev, Ukraine east of the Dnieper, and the Black Sea littoral, with a kind of “Blitzkrieg” combined with special forces operations, accomplished that (and the elimination of the Jewish regime in Kiev) in a few days, and without much harm or panic caused to the civilian population.

Sadly, that did not happen, and the whole invasion has become a bloody mess. The Russian Army and General Staff is culpable.

Having said the above, I see that the Russians are following the same basic strategy that I outlined weeks ago, not bothering so far to do much in the western two-thirds of the country, at least not in areas very far beyond the Black Sea.

As I flagged up some days ago (only now starting to be mentioned in the UK msm), the Ukrainians in the contested areas are starting to run out of food, fuel, possibly ammunition, and in some areas even water.

This is now a depressingly-bloody and sad war of attrition, which Russia is very slowly winning. The major cities, except Lvov, are almost certain to fall to Russian control. The population remaining will be sullen, unco-operative and, more or less, prisoners. How far beyond that they will go (to actual armed resistance), once Russian rule is dug in, is uncertain.

The Russians may allow, or even encourage, Ukrainian civilians in the Russian-controlled areas to leave and go as refugees to the western parts of the Ukraine, or via there to neighbouring countries. If that happens, the Russians will have got rid of people probably hostile to them, people who need to be fed etc; that would also place a greater burden on the Kiev regime (as long as it remains active) and on the EU states bordering Ukraine.

Hard to watch the superficially-kind but actually propagandistic (and contrary to international convention) treatment of a captured Russian soldier. Yes, he was given tea, but the Ukrainian soldiers or militia fighters in the crowd looked savagely exultant. Hope he survives and is not ill-treated. The telephone call to the boy’s mother in Russia was obviously designed to put pressure on her and the Russian population and government.

Commanders of Ukraine’s Special Operations Forces warned they would no longer take Russian artillerymen as prisoner of war in response to their ‘brutal shelling’ of cities – a move which would be a war crime. 

Each and every gun crew… will be slaughtered like pigs,’ a statement on their Facebook page on Wednesday evening said.” [Daily Mail].

“Each action posits an equal and opposite reaction”, so I dare say that the Russians will also soon stop taking prisoners, at least any thought to belong to irregular forces, including any “volunteers”, adventurers, or freebooters from Western countries.

I do not know why the Russians have failed to kill or capture Zelensky and his cabal. That should have been top priority. If it was, and yet failed, it argues again that both the GRU and Russian Army need thorough reform, once this is all over.

In the UK, the msm has whipped up a kind of “let’s bomb Russia even if it means nuclear war” madness.

Were I ensconced in a castle in the South West of the UK, together with loyal followers, I might be more sanguine, in that, after massive destruction, we could take over the UK, eliminate surviving enemies, and create a new social-national society.

However, as it is, that is little more than a pipe-dream. I do not want my (still, at least partly) “green and pleasant land” to be hit by waves of nuclear weapons-caused destruction.

Invasions can take a number of different forms…

As I began to notice a while ago, the “panicdemic” propaganda has ebbed away, to be replaced by “kill Putin and evil Russia” propaganda. In fact, the same major msm liars are already heavily on the case, well-paid propaganda idiots such as Piers Morgan and the various sofa-sitting talking heads on “British” TV.

At least Greta Nut has disappeared for a while. Be grateful for small mercies.

Historical note

The place where Europe began: Spiral cities built on remote Russian plains by swastika-painting Aryans

“Desolate: The Bronze Age cities were built some 4,000 years ago by the Aryans in a 400 miles long region of the Russian Steppe.”

The Aryans’ language has been identified as the precursor to a number of modern European tongues. English uses many similar words such as brother, oxen and guest which have all been tracked to the Aryans.” [Daily Mail report]

These ancient Indian texts and hymns describe sacrifices of horses and burials and the way the meat is cut off and the way the horse is buried with its master. If you match this with the way the skeletons and the graves are being dug up in Russia [on the border of Siberia and Kazakhstan], they are a millimetre-perfect match.’”

[Bettany Hughes, TV historian, in UK Daily Mail].

The foundations of modern Europe lie with the Aryans and their post-Atlantean, post-Aryan descendants:

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1317362/Europe-begins-Cities-built-swastika-painting-Aryans-remote-Russian-plains.html

The future of Russia and the future of Europe lies with Aryans, or rather post-Aryans, and with a super-race which does not yet exist.

Long live, er, freedom…

Russia has to secure at least its major objectives (Kiev, Black Sea coast, east-of-Dnieper Ukraine) quickly, before those weapons are deployed.

A horrible and bitter end, but Russia now has no choice, from where it now is, leaving aside blame for how things have turned out.

One of many tweeters prematurely hailing a Kiev-regime victory. The game is not yet at an end. Russia is what the mediaeval ages called “investing” (besieging) most of the major cities of Ukraine. The tactics also are those of the Middle Ages— starvation and bombardment.

How long can those cities hold out without food, or perhaps without water and electricity? I feel sorry for those civilians trapped therein. Old people, unwell people, companion animals too. It should not have happened in this way, and the Jew-Zionist-controlled msm in the West has used these circumstances to demonize Russia, because of the human and animal cost of all of this.

I think that Russia can still achieve its strategic objectives in the east and south. That leaves the approximately two-thirds of the country to the west of the Dnieper and to the north of the Black Sea littoral. That rump of Ukrainian territory would have been of only limited importance, but now will be of major importance because of the arms flooding in from the West. It may be that, before too long, the destruction of locations in the west of Ukraine will more than equal that happening at present elsewhere.

Part of my commentary from a year ago:

As I have said many times before, the international cabals know that the next significant year in the 33-year cycle is 2022. It will be the most significant since 1989, which was itself the most determinative since 1956.

That cycle, and 2022 as the next really important year, is why everything seems to be moving so quickly now— the worldwide virus “crisis”, the “black lives matter” nonsense (in the still-majority-white countries), the endless blacks and browns on every TV show, every TV ad etc in the UK, USA and elsewhere. The Great Reset, and also the Great Replacement, in accordance with the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.

Now we see see things moving really rather fast…

Biden’s mental state continues to be confused

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10567679/Biden-confuses-Ukraine-Iran-State-Union-address.html

As in “it’s Tuesday, so we must be bombing Iran…“. Incredible.

The USA has more military-destructive power than the world has ever seen, but its political leader and Commander in Chief is plainly suffering from some sort of dementia, and the US Vice-President is an Indian/black-origined woman with little knowledge of foreign affairs.

See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commander-in-chief#United_States.

Internally, the USA has a society falling apart. Now majority non-white, and with huge numbers unable to live on their pay, or access medical services. That, and a cultural milieu almost entirely controlled by the Jew-Zionist element.

Armaments sent to the Kiev regime

We have been told that various countries, such as Lithuania, are supplying Stinger missiles and other ground-to-air, and anti-tank weapons to the Ukrainian forces. These all come from USA, UK and other technologically-advanced NATO states. NATO is effectively giving them to the Kiev regime, sometimes directly, sometimes via proxies.

You only have to look on Twitter to see many typical “sheep”, “vaccinated”, “boosted” etc, who now have all sorts of serious medical problems. Still, many are not only “vaccine” and facemask nonsense zealots, but Jew-Zionists and, indeed, ones who have tweeted against me over the years (and also made false and malicious complaints to police etc against me). Every cloud…

Typical Jew comedian. What was once described as “cheap hee-hawing“. The UK has been flooded with decadent rubbish of that sort for decades; many decades. It has become worse over the past 30 years. Time for what Russians call a “chistka“. Higher standards have to be imposed on TV and radio.

It now turns out that “Ukrainian” (Jewish) oligarchs built Zelensky a USD $40 million house in Florida.

Ha ha! Amusing. In reality, of course, National Socialism passed into history in 1945; the essence of National Socialism is now re-emerging in various forms (via some social-national people, some green and environmental movements, some architectural and town planning currents etc) but has not yet coalesced into a movement that can seize the hearts and minds of the peoples of the world.

Unsurprising. Alec Shelbrooke is one of the many MPs very much in the Jewish/Zionist/Israel pocket. Ignoramus.

Having said that, the above is true of many, perhaps most, MPs.

The Government is a joke; the Opposition is a “me too” bad joke.

I am just old enough [b.1956] to recall MPs “of all parties” enthusiastically clapping the then Bernadette Devlin in 1969, a supporter of armed terrorist violence against the British Army and British people. Why? Because she was one of the youngest MPs ever elected, and appeared at the Commons in a short skirt. Pathetic. System MPs fell over each other to congratulate that enemy.

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

The “Westminster monkey-house” indeed.

Once this invasion is finished in its first or initial-assault phase, Putin needs to purge the top ranks of the Army and Air Force, whose performance has been shown to be very inadequate.

The Russian armed forces need thorough reform.

There should have been a massive, overwhelming and, above all, swift assault on the three main strategic areas— Kiev, Ukraine east of the Dnieper, and the entire Black Sea coast and littoral to about 30 miles’ depth. The Jewish regime in Kiev should have been eliminated on the first day.

Where is the equivalent of the old Soviet GRU Spetsnaz? Where are the equivalent of the old Soviet KGB paramilitary operatives?

Such a Blitzkrieg would have saved almost all civilians from harm, and would have forestalled the panic-stricken flight of a million (?) refugees. They could simply have stayed safely in their homes.

As I blogged yesterday and previously, any victory now will be bitter indeed, and what is happening throws the entire near-future of both Europe and Russia into the hazard.

Certainly a possible prelude to war.

On this day a year ago

If I say so myself, my comments on the Labour Party in that post have aged well.

Peter Hitchens on Ukraine

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-10555573/PETER-HITCHENS-West-acts-tough-Russia-just-feeble-stand-China.html

As Hitchens says, much of the blame for creating the conditions that led to the present situation in Ukraine can be traced to certain neo-cons in Washington DC and New York City. Hitchens mentions Paul Wolfowitz [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Wolfowitz], but there were many others who are guilty, not least the Jew economist Jeffrey Sachs [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Sachs; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Sachs#Advising_in_post-communist_economies; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Sachs#Economics].

Sachs’ cretinous plan for “capitalism in 100 days” in early 1990s Russia killed, by its implementation (in part) and also by its influence, millions of Russians and, by extension, Ukrainians, via starvation and by lack of care and services. Does that count as a “holocaust”?

In fact, most of the Washington neocons were Jews. Not only that, but many, perhaps most, of those (from both Soviet and other backgrounds) who profited from Russian misery under Yeltsin were Jews.

I can understand why Hitchens feels unable to mention the Jewish background of most of the guilty: for one thing, he is himself partly-Jewish; for another, he would lose his Mail on Sunday column immediately, so infested has the UK msm become.

Comments about Ukraine

I’m told I am supporting the invasion by saying we provoked it. But if I warn a child that, if he annoys a wasp, it will sting him, am I supporting the wasp?“[Peter Hitchens in The Mail on Sunday].

And now here we are again, in a moralising frenzy. The BBC, which insisted on strict neutrality between Britain and Argentina in its coverage of the Falklands War, flings itself into an ignorant and one-sided coverage of the Ukraine crisis.

A leading presenter proclaims, from a city he weirdly calls ‘Kyeeeev’, that Ukraine is a ‘European democracy’, in which case he is very easily satisfied.

As my old friend Edward Lucas, no friend of Russia, put it in the Daily Mail yesterday, Ukraine is a country where ‘oligarchs run media empires, with politicians and officials on the payroll.

The judicial system is a festering mess where arrests, prosecutions and verdicts are used as score-settlers between political and commercial rivals. 

Senior positions are bought and sold. Healthcare and education are plagued by kickbacks. The security service, the SBU, is infested with intrigue and sleaze – and penetrated by Russian agents of influence’.

Justified outrage over the terrible harvest of war would be more convincing if we had paid more attention to the hundreds of civilian casualties, many of them inflicted by Ukrainian armed forces, in and near the breakaway regions in the country’s East.

It would also be more convincing if our political and media establishment had not supported the Nato bombing of Belgrade in 1999 (with major civilian casualties); the crazy invasion of Iraq in 2003; and the forgotten Nato bombing of Libya, also with its toll of dismembered children killed in supposed ‘surgical strikes’.”

[Peter Hitchens in The Mail on Sunday].

NATO had outlived its original usefulness by the time the Soviet Union finally disappeared in 1991, but the “New World Order” [NWO] cabals were not going to let that happen.

I am accused of treachery, or of being an apologist for Russia, for urging a different view on this crisis. Surely this is how dissent is treated in dictatorships.

I write this as a British patriot. How was it in our interests to provoke a war we cannot win, and cannot even fight, against a country which is not, in fact, our enemy?” [Peter Hitchens in The Mail on Sunday]

Yet half-Jew MP Tom Tugendhat would have Peter Hitchens, and others who are against this crazy demonization of Russia, to be charged with treason! He has urged amendment to the Treason Act, no less.

How can Tugendhat pretend that Britain is at war with Russia? If it were, Tugendhat would no longer exist, neither would the House of Commons, or London. Think about that, you evil idiot.

Tugendhat poses as ex-officer, but his military career consisted (it seems entirely) of paper-shuffling in the Territorial Army: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Tugendhat#Military_career.

Still, a significant NWO/ZOG drone, who wants to be Leader of the Conservative Party, and Prime Minister. I hope that that unpleasant would-be dictator never achieves his careerist goal.

By the way, part-Jew Tugendhat wants to expel all Russians from the UK; he has explicitly said so. I have a different idea about who should be expelled…

I see that the Tugendhat family emerged, in modern times, from the town formerly called Bielitz, in Silesia, now called Bielsko-Biala, and within Polish territory. I visited that town twice in 1988 (summer and winter) and stayed there for a number of weeks.

I see from Wikipedia and Google Earth that Bielsko has changed very considerably over the past 35 years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bielsko-Bia%C5%82a.

Poland was strict about “jaywalking”— I was caught again the following year, in Warsaw. I must be a recidivist…]

Feeble Labour

The (((occupied))) Labour Party under Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer becomes ever more feeble. As it has done ever since Starmer replaced Corbyn after the 2019 General Election, all it can say about the Ukraine policy of the Boris-idiot government is “me too!” or “me too! but do it more harshly and more efficiently!

I happened to see ridiculous creature David Lammy on a news broadcast, wanting Ukrainian refugees to enter the UK. In fact, I have little objection to that, in principle. After all, they are white Europeans. Also, they are at least genuine refugees, and are only fleeing by reason of large-scale dislocation, of which they are “innocent” victims.

The devil is in the detail, in the numbers, bearing in mind how stressed and indeed swamped the UK’s services and infrastructure already are, and how crowded the UK now is.

I do not agree entirely with that. The offensive has been far too sluggish. It should have started weeks ago, and been prosecuted with more elan.

Stalin would already have shot a few generals by now.

What was required was a swift, overwhelming and mighty Blitzkrieg to secure all strategic objectives and, exactly by so doing, to keep the civilian population from harm.

The righthand caption says, in Ukrainian, “there is your enemy— the Moskal” (derogatory term for Russian), with Jew pointing.

The explanation below the cartoon refers to the Russians and Ukrainians being played off against each other.

I do not necessarily “endorse” the cartoon, but it indicates what some people in that part of the world think. It is true that the Ukraine/Kiev regime is basically Jewish, and that the Putin government is at least strongly influenced by Jewish and Israeli interests.

I remember when that happened. The Ukrainian regime tried to deprive the inhabitants of Crimea (95% of whom are Russian) of water. The Russians in Southern Russia had to divert water to Crimea from elsewhere.

The Kiev regime has issued an open invitation to any and all foreign adventurers, freebooters, and criminals, to present themselves at the border of the Ukraine and be issued with a weapon and (I presume) ammunition, no questions asked. What could possibly go wrong?

If any of those volunteers are captured in the field, and under arms, they may well end up getting shot.

Zelensky may agree to talks, but if Putin agrees, it will be only to try to placate the West. Unless his forces get totally bogged down, he has no incentive to talk seriously. The Ukrainians are running out of fuel, ammo, food. Russian forces are in, though not yet controlling, Kiev, Kharkov etc.

Late thoughts

The slide into confrontation with Russia has been swift. It is reminiscent, though it has progressed quicker, of the situation in Afghanistan in the early 1980s. Supply of weapons in order to “help” the invaded country. Look what happened there. This is even more likely to lead to a general conflagration.

Supplying weapons to the Kiev regime will not help the people of Ukraine. It will deepen the conflict.

Germany is supplying about 1,500 ground-to-air missiles to the Kiev regime. That is not far removed from being a direct participant in a war.

The Russian invasion has been badly-handled. Instead of a swift and overwhelming assault, particularly on Kiev, it is developing into a stagnant battle of attrition.

Russia now has no choice but to use more force in order to secure its objectives. More force. More death and destruction. More harm.

There is something fated about all this. What will the end be, either soon or in 5-10 years’ time? Massive warfare all across Europe? Nuclear war? The feeling is not optimistic.

This is what is coming for all of us if we do not take on the NWO/ZOG state(s) of Evil now.

I may be wrong, but it strikes me that NWO/ZOG is using Canada as a testing ground now because Canada has only a fragile sense of its own identity, and that identity crisis has been made worse by the importation of millions of non-whites from all over the world: Indians, Pakistanis, Chinese, Arabs etc.

Combine that with the strong Jew element in (especially) Montreal and you get a country with little real self-hood. Without a binding racial, ethnic, religious or cultural connection, there is only force to hold together such a country.

There must be one Canadian willing to remove Trudeau and so fire a warning shot over the bow of the NWO/ZOG transnational police state.

The same as with the “groomed girls” in English towns and cities. A little intelligent and commonsense “racism” would have saved most of them.

Ukraine

As previously blogged, it is tragic that two peoples so closely-entwined historically as the Russian and the Ukrainian have come to this pass after only 30 years out of a mutual history stretching back over a thousand years.

It should be said that, while it is true that the evils of Sovietism, including Collectivization, impacted Ukraine very damagingly in the late 1920s and in the 1930s, those same evils also affected Russia itself: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collectivization_in_the_Soviet_Union; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collectivization_in_the_Soviet_Union#Ukraine.

Sovietism was, after all, fundamentally Jewish rather than Russian in its genesis.

As far as the present situation is concerned, its immediate roots go back to the 1990s, when the “West” (fundamentally the USA, as main component of the “New World Order” [NWO] proclaimed by President Bush snr.) treated the former Soviet Union as if colonial territory, as if the Soviet Union and so Russia had been defeated. Of course, there was some truth in that, but only some. The Soviet Union/Russia was defeated from within, mainly. President Bush snr. however, crowed that “we won the Cold War“. Again, partly but not entirely true.

NATO expanded, and obviously has it in mind to expand again, to include Ukraine once circumstances allow.

Putin is now attempting to redraw the map of Europe. This is a strategic move on the highest level. A seizure of Kiev, the Eastern Ukraine (i.e. Ukraine east of the Dnieper river), and the entire Black Sea littoral (including Odessa) will immeasurably strengthen Russia in the long term.

It is almost laughable to suggest that Putin will give up such a plan, and such an invasion, as the price of a stilted “summit” meeting with the apparently almost ga-ga President of the United States.

Biden cannot even promise that NATO will not one day include Ukraine. He will not withdraw American troops and planes from the Baltic states and Poland. In fact, Biden can offer nothing except vague reassurances, meaningless and entirely cynical.

I do not think that Putin and his people imagine that many will take seriously the “Gleiwitz radio station” disinformation presently being put out by the Russian authorities. They are doing it pro forma, almost tiredly. Cynicism rules on both sides.

Putin knows that, short of starting a nuclear war between NATO and Russia, there are few arrows in the Western quiver. Critical words, economic sanctions, possible help to anti-Russian irregular forces in Ukraine (if the Kiev regime were to be toppled); little more.

The Russian invasion must take place. It must be swift. It must be overwhelming, and I hope that it can be with as little harm to civilians and others as possible.

The Ukrainian people must know now that the “West” cannot be relied upon. The US, UK, and other embassies have, as I predicted, already fled from Kiev to Lvov, 340 miles to the west.

As can be seen on the immediately-above map, before 1954, Crimea was not part of Ukraine politically, while Lvov (in the yellow area) was within the Austro-Hungarian Empire until 1919, and then Poland until 1939.

Those border lines have historically been fluid.

[“Russia has no borders; it is wherever there are Russian people“]

[Note: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lviv].

For me, apart from being interested in the situation for itself, the interest lies in what this whole series of events might mean for Europe as a whole.

The Ukraine situation has exposed the weakness and disunity of “the West”. The United States is shown as an emperor without clothes. It has immense military-destructive power but little else. Its failures to change the mindset, or the people, of Iraq and Afghanistan, are daily obvious. Its great military power is now matched by by both Russia and China, even on the nuclear-weapons level. Its society is failing from the inside out. It was led by a squawking parrot (Trump) and now by a semi-demented semi-invalid (Biden).

Despite the protestations of the political pygmies of Western Europe, the likes of Boris-idiot, Macron, and Liz Truss (can we even mention her in a serious study?), it is clear that the West does not “speak with one voice“; indeed not even the EU.

The American, British, and French leaderships are running around like headless chickens. Macron’s vanity and ambition has resulted in him being played like a fish by Putin; Macron does not even realize it.

As for unimpressive idiots such as “Boris” and Liz Truss, they are just “noises off”, without any importance at all.

If Putin can take over the most important third or so of Ukraine (the areas already mentioned above), and if the NWO powers then try to foment a kind of civil war (as in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria etc), then Russia might be more inclined to help social nationalism triumph in Western Europe. A silver lining to the dark cloud of war.

Well, that claim about Ukraine is certainly true; maybe that is why the Ukraine has been such a corrupt and unpleasant mess (and riddled with Jewish exploitation) for the past 30 years.

That is also true…

Putin (leaving aside “diplomatic” untruths) is far more likely to tell the truth than a perpetual liar such as “Boris” Johnson.

Of course, “fascist” is routinely misused, as here, but his main point about Canada is valid, as is his point about “the virus”.

What do Macron, Johnson, Putin, Merkel, and Trudeau all have in common? They all attended WEF’s Youth Leadership program. One should be asking to what extent has Schwab infiltrated our government and all other governments around the world?” [newspaper reader’s comment]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaus_Schwab; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Economic_Forum.

According to the Transnational Institute (TNI), the Forum is hence planning to replace a recognised democratic model with a model where a self-selected group of “stakeholders” make decisions on behalf of the people.[24] The think tank summarises that we are increasingly entering a world where gatherings such as Davos are “a silent global coup d’état” to capture governance.” [Wikipedia].

What does it take before the mass of people wake up to the NWO/ZOG transnational conspiracy?

This amused me:

While Schwab declared that excessively high management salaries were “no longer socially acceptable”,[19] his own annual salary of about one million Swiss Francs has been repeatedly questioned by the media.” [Wikipedia].

Incidentally, at present time of writing, a million Swiss francs equates to about £800,000 in British money.

“Lawfare”— quasi-terroristic abuse of the legal system

I happened to see this Mail on Sunday piece by Dan Hodges: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10530917/DAN-HODGES-fox-killing-lawyer-bombastic-claims-clogging-courts.html. It examines, polemically, the Good Law Project pressure group, headed by the part-Jew barrister, Jo Maugham, a tax lawyer prolific on Twitter [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jolyon_Maugham].

“Lawfare”, meaning the abuse of the legal system (both criminal and civil) to achieve socio-political ends, has been in frequent play in the UK for about a decade. Behind it, mostly the Jew-Zionist, pro-Israel, element.

Diary Blog, 14 February 2022, including latest thoughts on the Ukraine situation

Morning music

On this day a year ago

Ukraine

I have already noted in the blog about how both the current President and Prime Minister of Ukraine are Jews; now I see that the current Ambassador of the UK in Kiev is also Jewish: see https://www.kyivpost.com/business/uk-ambassador-brings-ukrainian-roots-to-the-job.html.

The former U.S. ambassadress in Kiev, 2016-2019, was also Jewish (at present, the US Embassy at Kiev is headed by a Charge d’Affaires).

As to the general situation in the region, events have moved closer to what I was predicting a few weeks ago, i.e. that Russian forces would seize Eastern Ukraine (Ukraine east of the river Dnieper), the Kiev area, and the Black Sea littoral from Trans-Dniestria to the mouth of the Dnieper and further east to the present Russian border.

As previously blogged, such a strategy would leave Russia in control of 6 of the largest 7 cities in Ukraine, Lvov alone remaining in the hands of the present Kiev government, assuming that it still exists by then.

The above strategy would place all seaports, including the largest (Odessa) in Russian hands; also all river ports of significance.

That strategy would also join Crimea to Russia via south-eastern Ukraine.

Most of the important industrial areas would also fall.

As noted in previous blog posts, it is hard to see how the present state of Ukraine, under the present Kiev government, could continue to exist except as a rump state based on Lvov, controlling mostly agricultural areas in Western Ukraine but without the means of easily-exporting its produce.

If Russian forces move to encircle Kiev, the present Kiev government will face the choice either of being captured, or of withdrawing to Lvov, about 40 miles from the Polish border.

Should Russian forces capture Kiev, and with it the present government, I should expect the present Kiev governmental leaders to be allowed to go into exile. The Russians would then find a suitably pro-Russian interim President and Prime Minister.

Should the Russians achieve their immediate objectives, a pro-Russian government in Kiev might face an anti-Russian government based on Lvov, which might in turn lead either to compromise or to a civil war in the (inland) west of the country, as the long-running civil war in the east comes to an end with victory for the Russians and pro-Russians.

Russia would control most of the electrical power output for the whole of Ukraine (and, of course, the supplies of natural gas).

The latest newspaper (Daily Mail) map seems to indicate that most military strategists are now completely in line with my own thinking:

The photograph below shows the motorway between Kharkov and Dnipro (former Dnepropetrovsk). Well up to European standards, and making transportation of tanks etc (either under their own power or on transporters) not difficult.

As noted in past blogs, Russian air power is overwhelming in theatre, the Kiev government controlling fewer than 100 fighters, as against several thousands of Russian fighters, as many as 1,500 of which may be effectively in theatre.

Russia is likely to have almost complete air superiority, thus protecting its ground (and naval) forces, themselves far more numerous and of higher quality than most of those of Ukraine.

The fact is, that the Kiev government has no chance of resisting for longer than a few weeks, at best. The volunteers and others preparing to resist invasion are being set up for defeat by their own government.

One can only hope that civilian casualties, and destruction in residential areas, can be kept to a low level.

Putin and his advisers can now be sure that the USA and allies in NATO will not be fighting in this “short war”. Russia has a clear field. As for the posturing of the likes of “Boris” Johnson and Liz Truss, I doubt whether that weighs even slightly in the Kremlin.

Was it Teddy Roosevelt who described diplomacy as the necessity to “speak softly but carry a big stick“? Whatever. Johnson and Truss have done the opposite, loudly reproving Putin, while very obviously having nothing with which to back up their bellicose words. Absurd. The Royal Navy etc cannot even defend the English Channel coast from non-white migrant-invaders!

Well, we should know within a few days whether any of the last-minute diplomacy and loud criticism of Putin can change anything. I doubt it. Everything (except the relatively mild weather) is in Russia’s favour now; this time next year, things may be far less favourable.

Rarely has an invasion, or incursion, or annexation, been so well signposted. The Russians have all but issued engraved invitations! I suppose that that is part of the psych war, or “hearts and minds”, to spread a feeling that the takeover is inevitable. After all, the Russians have such ground, air, and naval superiority that overall surprise is unnecessary even if it could be achieved.

In principle, there is nothing wrong with “good healthcare, good education, skilled work and reliable transport“, but the devil is in the detail, of course. It is clear that the UK is short of all four at present.

Of course, Boris-idiot is all hot air.

There seem to be a lot of idiots around who imagine that a war with Russia would mean evacuating children, then shouldering a 1913 Lee-Enfield and preparing to repel boarders, or invaders, when not in the public bar of the local pub. A kind of Dad’s Army mentality.

Any war with Russia would devastate large areas of the USA, UK, and other states, as well as Russia. The UK would be hardest-hit, possibly all but annihilated, because of its small size and also because it contains a plethora of high-value targets: airfields, transport hubs, naval installations, early-warning stations etc. Russia is 72x the size of the UK.

Yes, Russian bases and cities would be wiped out, but so would most if not all UK cities. The USA might “only” lose its 100 most-populous cities. Would that be somehow acceptable? I think not. The USA may have greater destructive power than Russia, but you can only destroy a target once. Hitting it ten times over will accomplish nothing more.

The Western powers and Russia must come to the table, but that is only possible when Russia has secured its territorial integrity.

As I suspected (and blogged): the Jewish regime in Kiev will be toppled, and will then relocate to Lvov (“Lviv”) if it can; the US Embassy is already relocating there, and all secret files and devices at the Kiev embassy have been destroyed.

I hope that the conquest of Kiev, Eastern Ukraine, and the Black Sea littoral, can be done as quickly and bloodlessly as possible.

Cruel and disgusting individuals

A primary school worker and her boyfriend encouraged a two-year-old to kill badgers and foxes during a barbaric family day out, a court heard.

Paris Jade Carding, 28, of Fawley Grove, Wythenshawe, appeared in 32 video clips showing ‘shocking and horrendous’ incidents of animal cruelty.”

Her boyfriend, Grant Leigh Jnr, 30, of the same address, was also found guilty, reports Manchester Evening News.

Inquiries revealed she had been joined on the barbaric family expedition by her boyfriend and his ex-huntsman father, Grant Leigh Snr, 52, of Marler Road in Hyde, Tameside.”

Will they even be imprisoned? I hope so.

I believe that a 6-month maximum still applies unless the dogs were injured (which raises the maximum to 5 years, the crimes having happened before 2021).

I would not be surprised if the bitch featured in the report gets off lightly because of the mere fact that she has children (who may well grow up to be as bad as the rest of the “family”).

The courts cannot at present punish this sort of depraved and scarcely-human trash with sufficient severity. The prospect of being sentenced soon does not seem to have wiped the smirk off the evil woman defendant’s face…

I think that the newspaper should have published the exact addresses of the defendants in this case.

The above-reported-on is a very nasty series of crimes despite the fact that the government itself, in the past decade, has wrongfully killed untold thousands of badgers in order to placate the farming lobby.

Absurd leniency in sentencing

I am not at all a “flogger and hanger” but the misplaced leniency shown in that report is just a bad joke. Where is the justice for the victim? I bet that someone who, for example, said something mildly “anti-Semitic”, would get a far heavier sentence (which, after all, would hardly be difficult).

Incidentally, the Daily Mail really ought to employ competent sub-editors, or at least a few literate reporters (I note that the semi-literate scribbler who penned the above report is one “Danyal Hussain”, which may explain the poor English).

System political puppet-show polling

Other pollsters are broadly in the same area at present, with a slight decrease in the Labour lead over the past couple of weeks.

It is fairly clear to me that, if the misnamed Conservative Party can ditch “Boris”, and if they can then find someone not immediately obviously an idiot to replace him, the two main System parties will be near parity before very long; that suits Con rather than Lab in terms of potential Westminster seats.

Recent local council by-elections continue to show a decrease in the Labour vote-share (with a few exceptions) even where Labour has won the seat in question.

The British (especially English) dilemma remains: if, as voter, you dislike, distrust or despise both main System parties, where do you go? What can you do?

My own political stance is rather different, both in terms of orientation and strategy. I cannot see a way forward as things stand. There has to be a breakdown of both the political system and the economy before a real social-national movement can arise.

Hard to see where Starmer-Labour has any edge over the Cons. Its policies remain similar to those of the Cons, and apart from a sluggish feel to Lab under Starmer, there is the perception, surely correct, that Labour has become a would-be technocratic or “managerial” “we can run workhouses better” party, which I would suggest is not immediately attractive to most voters.

Looking at the near-meltdown of the “Conservatives” (Liz Truss as Foreign Secretary! Nadine Dorries actually in Cabinet! etc) in recent months —indeed, over the past 2 years—, it is amazing that Labour and Starmer are not higher in the polls than they are.

Were a new Con Party leader to come in and sweep away the Truss, Dorries, Priti Patel (etc) detritus, Labour would be dead in the water (again). Corbyn was “Marmite” to many, but Labour was doing better under Corbyn in real elections than it has done under Starmer, so far at least.

Starmer’s trump card, he thinks, is managerial efficiency, and that is certainly the Cons’ weak suit, but Starmer and Labour may find that that is not quite enough. Also, I should imagine that the voters, even if unaware of the Labour Friends of Israel aspect, look at Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper etc, and see (rightly, in my estimation) would-be tyrants, full of political correctness and hatred for free speech.

Little Matt Hancock, once “health tsar”, now totally washed-up and irrelevant, wishes the Prince of Wales “recovery” from an “illness” of which said notable would be completely unaware were it not for a “test”!

This whole “Covid” thing, whether you call it “panicdemic”, “scamdemic” or whatever, has just become utterly ludicrous. I think that the public perception of that (albeit that it took the public 2 years to wake up to it) is behind the swift abandonment of restrictions such as the facemask nonsense.

“Boris” may be an idiot, but he has a general cunning re. the public mood. He needs a boost, and getting rid of the restrictions will give him one, even if not as much of a boost as he needs.

Incidentally, I went to Waitrose about 5 days ago. Not very crowded (early evening). As I entered the store, I saw a number of people, all at least 80, all wearing facemasks. About 6-8 of them. My heart sank that the sheep had still not awoken from the brainwashing. However, on going further into Waitrose, I saw that almost all the remaining shoppers (of all ages) were not still wearing the useless bits of cloth or plastic. Thank God for that.

Jacinda Ardern, like Justin Trudeau, will not be removed by petitions, peaceful demonstrations, or even election voting.

Russia must take Eastern Ukraine, Kiev, and the Black Sea littoral soon, or lose the golden moment. Waiting a few weeks might or might not be OK. Waiting a year would be disastrous. The New World Order will by then have built up Ukraine into, if not a NATO state (NATO rules disallow a country to join if its territory is partly-occupied), then a quasi-NATO ZOG puppet state.

A lot depends on weather, as with Barbarossa in 1941. If the mud gets worse, it might impede even the armoured vehicles of 2022, and the mud will not go until the late spring, or summer.

Everything favours the Russian forces…so far. Russia’s air power is overwhelming, its armour also very strong. Russia also has superiority in the numbers, equipment, and training of its ground troops.

A simultaneous seizure of the whole east of Ukraine, of Odessa (with Black Sea coast and the littoral stretching a few miles beyond that coast), and of Kiev, would mean that all major cities of Ukraine except Lvov would be in Russian hands. The capture of Kiev would decapitate the regime of the Jewish clown now posing as President, and there would be no immediate need to seize the half to two-thirds of Ukraine west of the Dnieper and inland.

Admittedly, that might leave considerable anti-Russia forces in the west of Ukraine, and a rump government based on Lvov. However, that rump government would have few sources of funding, be unable to import or export by sea, and would have limited credibility. Russian air power would be able to eliminate any large concentrations of armour left, and the air force of Ukraine is very weak; it would probably by then have more or less ceased to exist.

It is tragic that two peoples closely bound together for so long (over a thousand years) should battle in this way, but Russia has little choice now. For the sake of the whole civilian population of Ukraine, it must strike both swiftly and overwhelmingly. A Blitzkrieg for the sake of mercy, if you like.

More about Ukraine etc

While driving, I listened to BBC Radio 4 PM (old and bad habits die hard). Liz Truss in Moscow. Bloody hell! What an embarrassment this whole Cabinet is! The presenter said that Liz Truss was “talking tough” to the Russians… Talk about a hollow threat! Little Liz Truss, “talking tough” but with literally nothing to back her up.

The British Army, supposedly about 70,000 strong, but (if what I read is correct) with only about 11,000 active front-line troops altogether. Around Ukraine alone, Russia is said to have massed over 100,000.

It would have been better for Liz Truss to have said nothing than to have uttered, as she did, scarcely-veiled threats, when the Russians know that she has nothing in her arsenal with which to speak louder.

Talking about useless people, I also heard Cressida Dick yapping about how she is going to root out police personnel engaged in “racist, homophobic or misogynistic” language. How about the police actually doing their main job instead of doing the bidding of malicious Jew-Zionist agitators such as those in the tiny group of troublemakers called “Campaign Against Anti-Semitism”?

The CAA specializes in making malicious and often completely false allegations. I have had several made against me in the past decade, most recently only last year: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2022/01/15/diary-blog-15-january-2022-including-an-outline-of-the-failure-of-the-latest-jew-zionist-attempt-to-prosecute-me/.

[Cressida Dick, Commissioner of Metropolitan Police, talking at New Scotland Yard with Gideon Falter, “Chief Executive” of the tiny “Campaign Against Antisemitism” group]

The police seem all too ready to play the role of “poundland KGB”. There have been thousands of recent examples of police exceeding their powers, and going well beyond what the law actually says (repressive as it anyway now is). There again, Cressida Dick is a Common Purpose drone, and their arrogant motto is “leading beyond authority“, a major reason why idiots like Mizz Dick have been promoted beyond their competence, and why public administration is now beginning to break down.

I could talk for an hour on the same theme; after a couple of drinks, make that two hours.

The British people are being conditioned to accept lower standards in all areas: NHS, the police, the legal professions, housing provision, MPs (most are real deadheads now), roads, universities, pension age, pay, State benefits etc.

Mass immigration is part of the reason: you cannot import millions of people from lower-quality ethno-cultural groups, and then expect standards to stay the same, or to rise. Such expectation would be lunatic.

On the broader canvas, the secret cabals and ruling circles of the West (commonly called NWO and ZOG), want to build up North America and the Far East, mainly.

Europe, with a European population, gets in the way of that, so the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan provides for importation of tens of millions of blacks, browns, and others, in order to create a mixed-race population that can be easily ruled by (mainly) Jews and, especially publicly, mixed Jewish/English individuals. The prime ministers and other top ministers of recent years prove the point: David Cameron-Levita, George Osborne, Theresa May, “Boris” Johnson, and so on.

Unexpected agreement

I happened to see a shot of the headline of something written by Jew-Zionist and extreme conservative, Melanie Phillips:

Image

Not often that I would be on the same page as her, though it has happened once or twice before.

I have always disliked tattoos, especially but not only on women. In the past, tattoos, at least in the Europe of the past couple of thousand years, were for men only, and usually for men in particular “walks of life”: some sailors, some soldiers, some criminals.

Even in the armed services, not only in the UK but in most countries, while tattoos might be acceptable in the ranks, they were, traditionally, not acceptable in the officer caste.

It is well-known that Jews are not generally tattooed; that seems to come from one of the strictures laid down in the Book of Leviticus. Some Jews were tattooed involuntarily when detained by the forces of the Reich; they were tattooed on the lower arm with their prisoner number: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identification_of_inmates_in_German_concentration_camps.

Waffen-SS men and officers often had their blood group tattooed under the left arm, for practical reasons. Not all SS personnel, though, had such a tattoo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_blood_group_tattoo.

I have not read the Melanie Phillips article (behind a paywall), but I am sure that the tattoos to which she objects are the purely decorative ones.

I too have puzzled over why they seem to be so popular now. It does seem to betoken a retreat from culture and civilization, but that is my feeling, not backed by cold logic.

I am not sure that my reaction on seeing tattoos is as visceral as that of Melanie Phillips, but it is broadly similar— I don’t like them.

I could see also that “Captain Tom” was to some extent being used by the same forces behind the “panicdemic” and the “weekly clap”.

It did not occur to me that quite a bit of the money would be, in effect, just stolen or embezzled. I thought that the public scrutiny would prevent anything as direct as that from happening. Apparently not.

National Insurance rising, taxes for most rising, cost of living rising, pay inadequate for most, State pension age rising. Still think that the unnecessary “lockdowns” and “furlough” payments were great? Think again.

As for Boris-idiot, it took the bulk of the British people about 15 years to catch up with my opinion of him, and it took the msm almost as long, if not longer, but now almost everyone wants him to get kicked out. The only problem with replacing him is that there are so few MPs who are both actually English and also not total deadheads…

What weight do we give to genetics, environment, Nature, nurture, education, personal destiny, reincarnation etc? Rudolf Steiner was, I think, right to say that, in terms of society, education of the child carries huge weight. On the other hand, so do the other factors. I suppose that education of children is something that can be decided upon rationally in policy terms; it is within the power of humanity to change policy, purpose, and content.

The last bit is the killer: “with family help“. Quite.

Every now and then, you read some silly comment on Twitter or in the newspaper readers’ comments sections to the effect that young or not so young people could buy houses, even in the UK’s ludicrously-inflated property market, if only the people concerned would cease patronizing Starbucks or Pizza Express. I suppose that some idiots even believe that.

It is true that many waste money; few of us never do that. How much, though? When the deposit alone for even a very modest house, on sale for, say, £200,000 (and that is far below the national average), is something like £20,000 to £40,000, it is going to take the hypothetical young twenty-something couple rather a lot of saving-up, when many people are living hand to mouth to start with. They might manage it by the time they are 40-50 years old. Maybe.

Not everyone has a father who was the Chairman of Christies…

Actually this type of unwanted and silly “advice” broadcast to the poorer part of society is not very English, despite making appearances in Dickens and elsewhere (eg the works of Samuel Smiles: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Smiles). It is rather American: the poor are poor because feckless and useless, the rich are rich because clever, virtuous and well-organized.

As with all propaganda, there is a kernel of truth there, but as Churchill noted, the truth often has to have a bodyguard of lies. In this case, the amount of truth is very small, the false large though persuasive to many.

At least the pre-revolutionary Russian aristocracy was honest enough not to claim that most Russians were poor because of character flaws, despite their often having some.

The David Cameron-Levita government specialized in nonsense of the Kirsty Allsopp sort, and that rhetoric underpinned the “welfare” “reforms” of the part-Jap sadist Iain Duncan Smith, a charlatan whose very name is fake! As were his “degrees”, and work history. He has never been punished for the misery he has inflicted.

The above tweeter fondly believes that “#ToryScumOut” will not result in what might be termed “#LabourScumIn“…It was Labour who trashed lower-level pay by importing cheap labour from all over the world, Labour who, from 1997 and especially 2005 started to screw down on the unemployed and disabled, Labour who introduced the fraudulent ATOS carpetbaggers. Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper, and others around the present Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer have all made statements similar to those of Conservative MPs on these topics.

Labour-label is no answer (to anything).

Quite. When I was 19, in 1976, I was doing various kinds of low-paid work, and living in the attic of a friend’s house in Little Venice, London. The work paid less than £100 a week, and the house was valued (a few years later) at £100,000. In 2022, that same house is valued at around £4 million, and the kind of work I was doing in 1976 would pay today maybe £400 a week, quite possibly less than that.

So in those 45 years, the price of that house has risen by 40 times its original value, but the work in question now pays no more than 4 times what it did in 1976.

Outside the better parts of London, the ratio might be lower, but not very much so. I recall idly gazing into the window of an estate agency in Seaton, Devon, in 1998. I just happened to be there for a few hours.

I noticed three small bungalows for sale for between £25,000 and £28,000 each! They were very small, 1-2 bedroom places no doubt once used as weekend (near) beach places (pre-WW2). Out of curiosity, I looked online a few years ago. There was a very similar one for sale in the same town: £200,000. Probably far more now. An inflation of ten times the valuation in about ~20 years. Pay in 2022 is generally not ten times what it was in the late 1990s.

This Anglo-American “pull yourself up by your own bootstraps” idea is quite ingrained. Homeless and without capital or income? Well, just start a roadside lemonade stall, and soon you too will be a millionaire or more…

That nonsense, fed to children and adults in the USA (especially) in various ways, has been socio-politically very influential. Retailed via such as the old and now-defunct Reader’s Digest (which I am sure had some kind of CIA connection): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reader%27s_Digest.

When I was having a cappuccino in my old haunt of the 1980s and early 1990s, Raoul’s Cafe, Little Venice, I happened to share a table with someone, an American, who turned out to have been the former head of the Reader’s Digest. I suppose that politeness prevented me from asking him who laid down the overall ideological line (and he would not have said anything about that anyway).

Exactly.

One of the total cancers in our society is the huge money available to approved TV monkeys-on-sticks. A few random examples? The “celebrity chefs”, some of whom do not actually even have restaurants (and some that do have them are not apparently very good anyway). Some are genuine chefs, others are not, but almost all seem to make much of their large incomes from TV shows.

When I read that some of those chefs have £50 million or £100 million capital, I cannot believe it. I concede that I am no businessman…

Other examples? The general “celebrity” TV (etc) world. Admittedly, I usually have never heard of said “celebrities” when I see them on charity quiz shows (almost invariably they are extremely ignorant). It sometimes feels like the whole world and his dog are “celebrities”.

The BBC, with its enormous budget, enormous because people have to pay the “licence fee” (tax), is responsible in part. Imagine paying an unpleasant idiot like Gary Lineker a million a year just to shoot the breeze about football games!

Television, in practice, by which I mean the kind of (((occupied))) television that exists in the West, especially, is very corrosive. South Africa started to lose its strength after TV was introduced in the mid-1970s. Import American (((American))) TV, and you import the mores of the you-know-whos…

Those who make huge money from TV are desperate to stay, to use a dated expression, “in with the in crowd”. Any remark designated “racist” and/or “anti-Semitic”, will kill the maker’s career stone-dead, of course. The Jews, exercizing great influence in the TV world, will blackball anyone not thought to be on board with their agenda.

Television, along with its accomplice, advertising, is a malign influence, very often. See https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/12/10/tv-ads-and-soaps-are-the-propaganda-preferred-by-the-system-in-the-uk/.

Ukraine

I have little to add to what I have said in earlier blog posts. The present regime in Kiev is a corrupt and shambolic Jewish-Zionist set-up that must go. Russia must take Kiev, Eastern Ukraine, and the Black Sea littoral. It must do it swiftly and overwhelmingly, to minimize civilian casualties and general damage. By this time next year, it will be impossible, so do it now, for the right reasons and in the right way.

I can think of a few things in the past few years that really wiped the smirks off the faces of the System conspirators.

Seems that, suddenly, a host of previously harmless habits are now (supposedly) causing serious heart problems (and no need to mention the “vaccines”…).

It’s probably starting to happen here as well. Many teachers are infected, not with “Covid” but with multikulti mentality.

Every single day they flood in. Most despise us for “our” weakness, many hate us. None are of the slightest use to us.

The Ukrainians probably had a good laugh at Lammy’s expense after he had scuttled back to the UK.

The word “Government” could just as well be replaced by “Jewish lobby” or “Campaign Against Antisemitism”…

The “panicdemic, together with its absurd “laws”, “rules” and “guidance”, has exposed, brutally, the level of psychopathology in large parts of the population. In various ways. Those who fear, not “the virus”, at root, but everything outside their own circle. The obsessive and pointless mask-wearing is one example. Another is the alacrity seen in those suddenly given petty power to tell others to wear a facemask, wear it differently or better, stay x-feet away from other shoppers (or from the said obsessive), and so on.

“The virus” has also exposed what little real respect most people now have for civil liberties, or even logic. So it was that the people —many, perhaps most, of them— accepted the ludicrous “Rule of Six” made up by the part-Jew, part-Levantine chancer and liar posing as Prime Minister.

Doubt about the official narrative has grown, but only slowly, and it may be that the System overplayed its hand, in that the conspiratorial “SAGE” committee (I used to call it “DUMB”— the “Department Under Matt and Boris”) heralded the “Omicron variant” as something likely to kill hundreds of thousands.

Well, now, only weeks after the latest alarmist predictions of the egregious Professor Ferguson and his cohorts, we see that “Omicron” is killing almost no-one, despite the frenzied testing and consequent announcement of millions of “cases”.

The public is waking up, though seems to have little real anger about having been played for two years. The System has spun it as “the measures taken mean that —if we keep “vaccinating”— we can live with Covid“. That spin or gloss pats on the back SAGE, the No.10 chancer, the government as a whole, and the poor saps otherwise known as The Great British Public…

Thus the Government (weakly opposed by the “we can run workhouses better” fake Opposition) can remove the various restrictions without having to admit to having got it wrong for 2 years, and without having to impliedly admit that the “panicdemic” was also —largely, not entirely— a “scamdemic”, and the measures taken for other reasons.

Southend West by-election

I have already blogged briefly about the upcoming by-election at Southend West, set down for 3 February 2022: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2022/01/13/diary-blog-13-january-2022/.

Seems that the latest news is that canvassers for the Conservative Party have been met with “a wall of disapproval” never previously encountered. That may mean a very low turnout as people “vote with their feet”. They cannot vote for any credible alternative because they have been denied that option.

The System parties have decided that, as with the Jo Cox assassination, the David Amess incident must be marked by the voters being denied a proper choice at the by-election, leaving standing only the “Conservative” Party candidate and a ragbag of small and/or joke parties and independents.

It will be interesting to see what proportion of the vote will go to Steve Laws (UKIP), who is somewhat known, by reason of his monitoring of, and tweeting about, the cross-Channel migration-invasion. He seems to be the front runner after the “Conservative” woman, though Catherine Blaiklock (English Democrats) may get quite a few votes.

I doubt whether Jayda Fransen (standing as Independent) will do well, but perhaps the Southend West voters will confound me.

Southend is not an area I know. I have been there, though only for an hour or so, and long ago, in 1977 or 1978.

I had returned from a youthful misadventure in Rhodesia, aged 20-21, and had signed up for a temporary job doing various kinds of casual work. One such, for a few days, was travelling around London delivering booze to various places as the driver’s mate, hauling crates around.

I remember that one destination was Pentonville Prison (for the guards), a cavalry barracks in Hounslow (the Sergeant’s Mess), and a bingo hall in some concrete town in Essex (Basildon? I forget now). Also, to what was either the Conservative Club, or the Naval and Military Club, Southend-on-Sea.

I remember that the Club to which we delivered was on a kind of bluff or clifftop overlooking the sea. There was a greensward between the Club and the clifftop. A tree growing there too (a monkeypuzzle tree? Or is that my memory inventing something?).

The sun was just setting over the sea, and that, together with the Union Jack on a flagpole, rendered the scene somehow elegiac. The Evening Hymn and Last Post might have been fitting.

Looking now at Google Maps and Google Earth, I think that that club was “Naval and Military” rather than “Conservative”. The latter seems to have been in a less pleasant setting in the middle of the town, and to have closed permanently a few years ago, a function of the declining membership of the Conservative Party: https://www.echo-news.co.uk/news/16385600.southend-conservative-club-close-doors-final-time/.

I remember the day mentioned partly because, having launched a crate of Scotch down a wooden chute to the cellar from the street, it had unfortunately slid down far too fast, and right into the gammy leg of the steward, who let out a few oaths that were certainly blue, and possibly naval, though not necessarily Conservative.

Thanks to the incredible resources now available via Google, Google Earth etc, I have just tracked down the place: Naval and Military Club, 20 Royal Terrace, Southend-on-Sea.

[Naval and Military Club, Southend-on-Sea]

Still going, it seems.

I have just been looking at some photos of Southend. Not terribly pleasant-looking overall. In a way surprising that it is a Conservative Party stronghold.

In fact, that seems not as clearcut as the election results for Southend West and other other local constituency (Rochford and Southend East) would suggest. Quite a high level of poverty, and the Southend local council is a non-Conservative minority-coalition administration, with little more than a third of all councillors Conservatives (20 out of 51).

The well-known anti-poverty campaigner and creator of recipes made on a shoestring, “Jack” Monroe, aka “the Bootstrap Cook”, is from Southend: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Monroe.

I notice that the local newspaper report on the closure of the Conservative Club in 2018 reported that Southend “is not safe at night“…

BBC “News”

This morning, watched, for the first time in a while, a whole half-hour of BBC TV news. Of the 30 minutes, about 20 mins was given over to the idiot posing as Prime Minister, and as to whether he broke his own ludicrous “Covid” “rules” or “laws”. Then we had 5 minutes about Ukraine and the possibility of invasion by Russian forces. A strange disproportion, to my mind: 20 mins about the idiot at Downing Street, and his cake and wine, but only 5 mins about the possibility (I would think probability) of (more) war in Ukraine.

The remaining 5 mins was mostly the weather report and forecast, the most accurate part of the whole broadcast.

The bit about Ukraine was mostly devoted to someone called James Nixey, an expert from the Chatham House think tank formerly (and surely better-) called the Royal Institute of International Affairs [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chatham_House].

I have little quarrel with what the said Nixey had to say, though it did not tell me anything that I did not already know (but then the news broadcasts are supposedly for the population as a whole).

I noticed that Nixey had on the bookshelves behind him (at his home, apparently, at Pangbourne) a couple of books which I myself have; I saw one about George Blake. https://www.chathamhouse.org/about-us/our-people/james-nixey; https://uk.linkedin.com/in/james-nixey-3621a710.

If true, it is one of the (very few) things “Boris” has done of which I approve wholeheartedly. Why lie about it? I would rather those innocent animals be rescued than many of the Afghans, some of whom hate us or despise us, and none of whom will ever be anything but a nuisance to us (at best). If “Madame Boris” (Carrie Johnson) got him to do it, well, never mind. It is the sort of thing a “first lady” should do— exercise compassionate influence.

Personal sanctions may be inconvenient to Putin (and those close to him) but they will not change his intent for a second. What is happening now around Ukraine is not the impetuous policy-on-the-hoof of the part-Jews David Cameron-Levita and Nicholas Sarkozy, when they stupidly decided to help the Libyan rebels in 2012. This is a long-considered and carefully worked-out plan by Putin, the Russian General Staff or Stavka, and the intelligence services, especially the GRU.

Putin and others see the Ukraine situation in the light of the 1100 years of conjoined close connection between Russia and Ukraine more than the 30 years of shambolic Ukrainian independence. They see it as a matter of territorial integrity (of the Slavonic heartlands), and also as a matter of existential national survival; they want a dead stop to NATO installing advanced weapons in Ukraine (and Poland, and the Baltic states).

What now? I myself would expect, as blogged recently, there to be an invasion at least of the Eastern part of Ukraine, and probably Kiev area too. I would expect the Spetsnaz forces of the Stavka, perhaps partly undercover, to create chaos in Kiev and some other key cities and non-urban locations first, before tanks roll in. and before the skies are full of descending parachutes.

I doubt that Russian forces plan to occupy anywhere much west of the Dnieper. Putin would rather install a pro-Russian Ukrainian government in Kiev, which would at least try to control the western part of Ukraine, while allowing the eastern part to exercise (pro-Russian) near-autonomy.

Russia gains little or nothing by delay. Every day that passes now makes a potential invasion or “incursion” slightly more difficult for Russian forces.

The Soviet Union always had awesome capabilities for swift mass deployment of forces (eg in Afghanistan), especially by air, and Russia’s newly-upgraded forces still have that, as far as I can see. The main reason that Russia did not simply invade a week or more ago was probably that Putin needed to “condition” the European states and the USA to the idea of Russian incursion, so as to obviate a sudden “Cuban Missile Crisis” situation developing.

Now, Putin can be sure that all that the NATO core states (really just USA and UK) will do is to impose blah-blah “sanctions” on Russia and its leaders. No attempt at direct military parrying. Biden has said as much. As for “Boris”, he is just a spectator, really.

Putin would probably prefer to “win without war”, in the famous phrase of Sun-Tzu, but it seems doubtful that the Kiev government will give him what he wants (though the Kiev leaders do seem to be disenchanted with the USA’s lukewarm support, so there is a slight possibility).

As said previously, I doubt that Russian forces would invade, or need to invade, more than a few miles west of Kiev. Mostly in the eastern part of the country, where there are several million ethnic-Russian civilians living.

Also, Russia will try to work psychologically on the Ukrainian population, mainly in Kiev and east of the Dnieper. Anxiety, maybe panic etc. If unexpected sabotage etc takes place, the countdown has begun.

I would expect the storm to break, if it does, within a week or so of today.
