“Russia has adapted and corrected many of its mistakes, even as the Russian military’s poor performance in the early days of the war shocked many in the West.
Moscow has spent months preparing a strong defense against the current Ukrainian counter-offensive in the south. The use of drones has become more frequent and efficient; changed the tactics of using the Air Force, now successfully avoiding Ukrainian air defense at low altitudes; added guidance capabilities to old aerial bombs; moved deeper into the front and dispersed warehouses, equipment and command posts; began to better protect our own soldiers and equipment; improved electronic warfare; according to Western officials, it increases the production of tanks (from 100 to 200 per year) and artillery shells (from 1 to 2-3 million per year).
On the battlefield, “the difference since the beginning of the war is colossal.”

“You carry in your blood the holy inheritance of your fathers and forefathers. You do not know those who have vanished in endless ranks into the darkness of the past. But they all live in you and walk in your blood upon the earth that consumed them in battle and toil and in which their bodies have long decayed.
Your blood is therefore something holy. In it your parents gave you not only a body, but your nature. To deny your blood is to deny yourself. No one can change it. But each decides to grow the good that one has inherited and suppress the bad. Each is also given will and courage.
You do not have only the right, but also the duty to pass your blood on to your children, for you are a member of the chain of generations that reaches from the past into eternity, and this link of the chain that you represent must do its part so that the chain is never broken.
But if your blood has traits that will make your children unhappy and burdens to the state, then you have the heroic duty to be the last. The blood is the carrier of life. You carry in it the secret of creation itself. Your blood is holy, for in it God’s will lives.”

‘It is the Syrian war, the Libyan war, the military coups in Sahel [a region in North Africa].
‘We are living in a circle of instability from Gibraltar to the Caucasus, and this happened before the Ukrainian war and will continue after the Ukrainian war.

No doubt the reason for that is because “equal opportunities” at some point morphed into “some people are more equal than others”. I saw that both at the practising Bar (1991-1996 and 2002-2008) and when employed by (especially) a large City of London law firm on a 6-month contract in 1996.
In the latter situation, I saw how the relevant partners of that firm, quite obviously running scared of the whole feminism/”glass ceiling” situation, and with many links to high circles of the British Government, appointed as partner in charge of “emerging markets” (basically, the former Soviet Union), an “Australian” woman of semi-Russian background who seemed to know no law (outside that of New South Wales), and whose only qualification for the job seemed to be fluent Russian.
Disastrous (said woman was incapable of being in charge of anything), but when later eased out after several expensive scandals, said woman and waste of space was able to get herself another similar position elsewhere (and probably on similar remuneration— about a million ££ per year), until she messed up there too, and had to return to her native Australia (she became a trade envoy in the end, I believe).
I think that the problem there, and often elsewhere, is that you have —or had at that time, 25-30 years ago— a lot of English male lawyers who had basically been pretty much under the thumb of women all their lives: nannies, mothers and aunts, school matrons, and later wives, and they plainly wanted to “virtue-signal” (as people now say) by appointing a few token women to high positions. In the law firm to which I refer, there were several dozen full partners at the time (1996) but only one woman, as far as I recall, until the Russian-speaker was appointed.
Interesting. Whether the story or the meetings will affect the 2024 General Election is an unknown.

“This is the reason I eat 6/7 whole eggs daily not just one:
The egg is a wholesome, nutritious food with high nutrient density because, in proportion to its calorie count, it provides 12% of the daily value of protein and a wide variety of other nutrients such as vitamins, essential amino acids and minerals. While protein itself is an important constituent of healthy diet, the egg has been found to have two newly-recognized nutrients – lutein and zeaxanthin – that has put the egg in the “functional food” category. A functional food is one that provides health benefits beyond its basic nutrient content. The health benefits you get by eating eggs are as follows.
•Eggs do not raise blood cholesterol: It is true that when you eat eggs, cholesterol enters your body. However, eggs also give a signal for the liver to stop producing the cholesterol it usually produces. The increase in the intake of cholesterol compensates for the decrease in the cholesterol produced by the liver and therefore keeps the blood cholesterol levels constant.
•Eggs have choline: Choline is an incredibly important nutrient for your body. This is because it helps build cell membranes and is also crucial when it comes to the production of certain signalling molecules in the brain. A single egg has about 100 milligrams of this nutrient and therefore is one of the best sources of it.
•Eggs are good for your eyes: Eggs have two very important nutrients for your eyes. These are Lutein and Zeaxanthin. These nutrients stop degenerative processes from occurring in the eye. Recent studies have shown that consuming lutein and zeaxanthin can significantly lower risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of blindness affecting people over the age of 65. In addition, these reduce the likelihood of cataracts.
•Eggs have high levels of Omega-3 fatty acids: Eggs that are boiled have a high level of Omega-3 fatty acids in them. Omega-3 fatty acids are crucial for reducing the chances of you suffering from heart disease due to the fact that it reduces your triglyceride levels.
•Eggs are an excellent source of protein: This is the biggest reason to eat eggs. Eating eggs helps you to lose weight, optimizing bone health and lowering blood pressure.
•Egg may reduce the risk of stroke: Studies have shown that eggs are not only good for your heart, but they also reduce the likelihood of suffering from a stroke.

Russia cannot “lose” this war, whatever happens (unless there is a palace revolution in the Kremlin).
The best solution is for Russia to retain Crimea, take all of Ukraine east of the Dnieper, and also retain or take all of the coastal regions of the Black Sea and Sea of Azov to a depth of (arguende) 50 miles, including the city of Odessa. Kiev can either be taken by Russia or operated as a condominium, or maybe as a “free city” not fully controlled either by Russia or by a rump Ukrainian regime based (probably) in Lvov.

“One in 12 people in Germany shares a right-wing extremist worldview, according to a new study published on Thursday.
The research by Friedrich Ebert Foundation has found that the number of people with far-right views has significantly increased in the past two years, and has exceeded 8%.
In the foundation’s 2020/2021 survey, less than 2% of the respondents had clearly expressed support for right-wing extremist views.
Researchers said the consequences of the Russia-Ukraine war, skyrocketing energy prices, and high inflation are creating challenges for the democratic parties in the center, and strengthening the far-right.
“Insecurities and conflicts over who gets what and how much, are providing a gateway for right-wing extremist ideologies and anti-democratic attitudes,” the researchers said in a summary of their report.
According to the survey, trust in the institutions and in the functioning of democracy in Germany has fallen to below 60%.
The number of those who see themselves more to the right of the democratic center has significantly increased, from 9% to 15.5%.
More than 16% of those surveyed approved xenophobic statements, while 5.7% expressed antisemitic views. Some 4% played down crimes committed by Hitler and praised Nazi ideology or policies.”
In 1928, the NSDAP was voted for by only 2.6% of German voters nationally. By 1932, that had grown to over 33%, and by 1933 to nearly 44%. With God, all things are possible.

This is clearly an orchestrated attack. The coward censor, Caroline Dinenage, should be more worried about the way she left her Navy ex-husband after 10 years of marriage and 2 kids, or the way her new husband left the mother of his daughter when the baby was 4 months old.
Interesting. Having never taken any interest in Caroline Dinenage, I had no idea that she was that kind of slut. Still, who knows the ins and out of such situations, which would usually be considered part of a politician’s purely personal life, and not usually a matter for public discussion. Things happen, as they say…
In the interests of fairness, I should add that at least she belongs to Conservatives Against Foxhunting.
Interestingly, Caroline Dineage’s present husband, Mark Lancaster, a former Conservative Party MP who, despite his own apparently-bad behaviour, now sits in the House of Lords as Baron Lancaster of Kimbolton, was 2-i-c of the “dark arts” 77th Brigade for two years (2018-2020), and carried the rank of Colonel.
Lancaster, who was a mere 2nd Lieutenant when serving for 2 years in the regular Army (Royal Engineers, 1988-1990), afterwards achieved regular seniority in the TA (now, the Reserves), and completed three tours of active service overseas. He is now Director, Reserves, and carries the rank of Major-General.
[Mark Lancaster, Baron Lancaster of Kimbolton, photographed wearing uniform bearing the insignia of a Lieutenant-Colonel of the British Army]
So we have Caroline Dinenage who is Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport, and then her husband, a Conservative life peer who was second-in-command of 77th Brigade and its interference with Internet information and/or disinformation.
Then we have the “cancellation” of the admittedly unpleasant Russell Brand who, however, has apparently been on a socio-political journey placing him in opposition to the “dark powers” who have such influence in our society.
In relation to the “cancellation” of the Russell Brand character, and the letters and emails sent by Caroline Dinenage, that is all rather relevant, nicht wahr? I wonder whether I am the first person to have spotted the linkage.

I happened to see a 10-minute report from BBC Newsnight about the protests in Wales and elsewhere around the migration invasion and, especially, protests caused by the commandeering of hotels to house the migrant-invaders.
What can one say? A rehash, pretty much, of all the similar dog***t TV reports on the so-called “far right” that I have ever seen, going right back to the mid-1970s. The only difference was the cross-Channel boat invasion aspect. In the past, we had an effective Navy, Coastguard, and police force (and courts), and were not being quite literally invaded by hundreds each day in small boats.
As always with such dull repetitive reports on TV, the assumption from the start is that anyone who wants to stop the migration-invasion is bad through and through, and the TV drone “reporting” (always) rubs that in with suggestions that (“ooh!“) some people actually think that Adolf Hitler was in many ways a positive influence, and that (“ooh!“) it might have been a good idea had the Second World War never happened. And so on.
Another aspect of Newsnight’s “report” which has been part of pretty much every similar TV show I have seen from 1975 to the present is the “honest local person” who has legitimate (minor) grievances (ie that could, it is implied, be dealt with by better admin etc) about matters such as migrant-invaders being housed in local hotels. Such “honest locals” invariably (as in the Newsnight report) decry any “far right” “infiltration” into their local protests.
This is what the Soviet Press and TV used to do. By all means protest (quietly) locally, and ask the Government to do things better, but do not question the whole policy, or the agenda behind it. In this case, yes, by all means protest about your local hotel being taken over, but do not say that the migration-invasion should be stopped, and do not protest about the black-brown migrant-invaders on a national or racial basis, and do not ask what is the agenda behind the migration-invasion (the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, in this case).
In the Newsnight report, there were two approved “honest locals” in two places, one an exhibitionistic fat woman who is, apparently, a local councillor in the Wigan area. She deplored the way “her” protest was “infiltrated” (ie outnumbered) by Patriotic Alternative and other protesters.
Needless to say, the views of the Patriotic Alternative and other people were only given briefly, and in such a way that they could be trashed.
There were two (if you like) “expert witnesses” as well: fat cat “Conservative” truffle-snuffler Tim Loughton (a noted expenses freeloader: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Loughton), who thought that the people who had to be, as he put it, “guarded against” were not the migrant-invaders but the “far right”…
The other “expert” was the egregious Neil Basu, a mixed-race ex-policeman whose chosen role (apart from expostulating about “racism”) is that of “counter-terrorism” etc. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Basu.
Basu seemed to be saying that anyone alive to the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, or who wants an end to the migration-invasion (which must surely destroy our society within one or two generations) is a “terrorist“.

Slowing food prices helped drive a surprise fall in inflation in August, with the cost of living now at its lowest level in a year-and-a-half. https://t.co/1WaXh5TFu5
Whether that fall in inflation will help the present Government either in the upcoming by-elections or in the 2024 General Election is an open question. My feeling is that even usual Conservative Party voters have given up, and are shaking their collective head at the present incompetent misgovernment. I see no enthusiasm for Labour, though, just a kind of angry apathy, which may be reflected in abstention from voting, or in protest voting.

As regular readers will know, as things stand I myself still face trial in late November 2023 under that same 2003 Act, which however was recommended for repeal by the Law Commission a couple of years ago.

The Ukrainian counter-offensive has failed, overall. The Kiev-regime forces have so far managed to advance only a few miles in a few areas of the front, and at the expense of perhaps 50,000 or more killed, wounded and/or captured.
At the same time, the Kiev regime has been exposed yet again as corrupt, brutal, and shambolic.
The cold weather is only a few weeks off. Rain and cold, followed by ice and snow by November-December. When the ground is hard, Russia may launch a massive armoured onslaught, supported by thousands of missiles and drones attacking military formations, rear-area supply and logistics hubs, and the energy infrastructure of the Ukrainian cities. After that, in early 2024, there may be an advance by armies hundreds of thousands strong.
The Kiev regime cannot “win” this war, even to the extent of taking Crimea, Lugansk, and Donetsk. Where it is now is the best it is going to get for Zelensky’s cabal.

I agree with Hitchens. I have not bothered to address the UK’s exploding Russell Brand scandal on the blog because, first of all, the man himself seems to me to be not worth analyzing. Just one more cheap, tawdry, pseudo-“celebrity” know-nothing paid millions by the corrupt msm for nothing very much; plainly a negative contributor to society.
Secondly, there are more important issues around. The migration-invasion. The destruction of our society in many different ways (the fake “celebrity” culture being but one of those). The war in Ukraine and the threat of nuclear war between the USA and Russia (with the UK likely to cease to exist if such a war ever happens). World overpopulation. The threat to the bees. The Jew-Zionist situation. Many other issues.
Having said that, it is interesting that Brand is in process of being “cancelled” just as he (apparently) has (as I read, quite recently) started to publicly question some of the recent socio-political shibboleths. Co-incidence or, as with some other public people, pour encourager les autres?

“A complete victory for Kiev will take a lot of time, and expelling all Russian troops from Ukraine is “too high a bar,” US Chief of Staff Mark Milley said in an interview with The Hill.
Zelensky has resisted peace talks with Moscow, saying Russia needs to be pushed out of all “Ukrainian territory.” However, according to General Milley, during the counter-offensive of the Ukrainian Armed Forces it is impossible to achieve this goal.
“There are significantly more than 200,000 Russian military personnel in the Russian-controlled part of Ukraine. This offensive, although significant, even if its goals are fully achieved, they will not drive out all the Russians, which is Zelensky’s broad strategic goal,” Milley said.”

When I was about 10 or 11, and living in Sydney (Australia), I sometimes thought how nice it would be if every person in the country were to give me 1 cent. The population of Australia was then 12 million, so my idea would be worth about AUS $120,000. Why I even thought that, I have no idea.
The amount I mention might seem to have been modest, but houses in the best areas of Sydney, such as where I lived, were only about $30,000 or so in those days.
Incidentally, the Australian population is now about 27 million, more than twice the size it was in the late 1960s, the result of mass immigration from all over the world (rather than only from the UK and mainland Europe), which started in the late 1970s.

Bauer has previously complained about lagging defense production capacity, slowing deliveries and continuing price increases, and has expressed the view that increasing allied defense spending in such a situation may not actually improve the security situation.”

“The new UK Defense Minister wants to transplant British pilots who trained Chinese colleagues The new British Defense Secretary Grant Shapps said that former British army personnel who train colleagues from rival countries will be brought to justice. It was previously revealed that a number of former RAF military pilots were training Chinese PLA pilots for a generous payment of around £250,000.“
Not sure what “transplant” means here but, leaving that aside, the Jew Shapps is talking nonsense (as usual).
Most of those ex-RAF pilots (most of whom were sacked by reason of spending cuts implemented by the “Conservative” governments of 2010-present) were selling their skills entirely lawfully at the time; I believe that the law was only recently changed. Retrospective laws are disapproved of in English law and tradition as unjust.

Good point. I have blogged about this in recent months. The population of Ukraine (including Crimea, Donetsk and Lugansk regions etc) was about 43 million in 2021. However, in 1992, the population (including Crimea and the rest) was far higher, about 52 million. By 2014, the population had already decreased to about 45 million.
Ukraine’s population, for the past 30 years, has not been breeding fast enough to replace losses. That trend has now accelerated.
Possibly as much as a quarter of the 2021 Ukraine population has relocated beyond Ukraine’s borders.
The Russian or Russian-occupied areas (Crimea, Donetsk, Lugansk etc) contain several million people. Crimea has 2-3 million.
In other words, the parts of Ukraine currently under the control of the Kiev regime now have somewhere in the region of 20-25 million inhabitants.
Bearing in mind that the Kiev-regime army has lost at least 500,000 young or young-ish men since last year, and that the ~4-5 million Ukrainians now living overseas are disproportionately female, the future of Ukraine as a state looks precarious at best.

Ukraine is fighting against one of the most powerful armies in the world. Even if Ukraine succeeded in forcing Russia to back down significantly, it would likely take years,…
…the large-scale recapture of the land lost to Russia in 2022 looks less and less likely as the days shorten. Those who invested heavily in a summer offensive against Russia have so far been disappointed. And what then?
The USA is still (wisely) dead set against involving itself directly in the war, so what will break the stalemate? Does this just have to go on and on filling graveyards and doing severe economic damage to Ukraine and Europe? With what aim?
…I can sniff the wind as well as anyone, and when the mighty US magazine Foreign Affairs publishes a major article with the title Will The West Abandon Ukraine? (to which the answer, in my view, is ‘quite possibly’) I think something is going on.
I’ve never been able to grasp what Britain’s interest is in sustaining a costly and risky war in South-East Europe between two corrupt and ill-governed hunks of the old Soviet Empire. A lot of US Republicans, not just the ghastly Trump, are also doubtful about the point of it.
Then there are recent reports of growing friction between Ukraine and Poland‘s government. I’m surprised this has not happened before, given the fairly recent (80 years ago) violent history between the two neighbouring peoples, in an area where events 500 years ago can still stir up bitter enmities.
And there is the current scandal of alleged corruption in Ukrainian military recruiting offices. This is no shock to anyone, as you can barely breathe in Ukraine without encountering corruption. But the point is that it suggests people in quite large numbers are paying to avoid fighting.
At the same time a lot of men of military age, banned by law from leaving Ukraine at the moment, are being caught trying to slip across the frontier with Romania. Which suggests that quite a few are getting through, and that this is a major difficulty for a country which has suffered terrible military casualties.
Honestly, if this war had not been so widely portrayed in crude storybook terms as a super-simple fight between total good and total evil, which it isn’t, we might have reached this stage before. But better late than never.“
[Peter Hitchens in the Daily Mail]
I recall a discussion with some late middle-aged Poles in the snowy Polish winter of 1988; a week or two before Christmas. All three (a husband and wife, and the brother of that woman) had lived through the tumultuous events of the mid-20th Century in that part of the world. The brother had been captured with other Polish Army recruits, then deported by Soviet authorities to Vorkuta, where he spent several years but survived [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorkuta].
That family had originally lived in or near Lvov (now a major city in Ukraine) but had been displaced. They however were adamant that they were Poles, and never Ukrainians. They seemed rather hostile to Ukrainians, in fact. See also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lviv#Interwar_period.
Since the Russian invasion of 2022, there has been a warmer Poland-Ukraine relation on the official level, but it cannot be said how long that will last; it may be fraying.

He was jailed for three years and two months at Manchester Crown Court (Minshull St).“
On the face of it, that sentence seems exceptionally lenient, albeit that there may be mitigating facts not given in the newspaper report. The defendant will be out in about 18 months.

Worth listening to, though for me it is clear that the Earth is reaching, perhaps has already reached “peak population” (especially as far as the non-European —i.e. non-white— populations are concerned).
One sees much discussion online as to what is “Marxism” or “Communism” (or “Socialism”), and as to whether the new emerging totalitarianism in the West is “Marxist” or not. Many (of varying viewpoints) question the equivalence, looking at what is aimed at, and what are the policies espoused.
In fact, much of that debate is too theoretical. When you look at things from a practical perspective, the similarities are far more apparent. Look at a few of those.
In the Soviet social system, an extension of the ideals of the French Revolution was preached: liberty, equality, fraternity. Needless to say, those ideals were more honoured in the breach than in the observance. Even before Stalin took full power, a whole system of special rations, special pay, special healthcare and (in reality) education began to be implemented for the favoured parts of the population, especially the Nomenklatura.
Those favoured lived very different lives compared to the rest, all delineated by reference to rank and favour. Spacious apartments instead of shared and/or cramped houses and flats, healthcare in special hospitals (the best being the so-called “Kremlin Clinic” in outer Moscow) rather than standard Soviet hospitals, and a graduated set of special food outlets (usually not even open to the general public), in which could be bought items rarely or never generally available (caviar, smoked salmon, imported foods, imported kitchen equipment), and so on.
At the higher levels, the nomenklatura travelled “soft class” rather than hard, could get internal air tickets when they were hard to get for the base population, and had cars for local and regional transport (even in the 1980s, a black person in South Africa had a greater chance of buying a car than a Soviet citizen).
At the very highest levels, this “class division” of travel reached staggering inequality. The top brass would travel by “private” rail car or aircraft. When Sakharov was told to relocate in order to help with the Soviet atom bomb and hydrogen bomb projects, he travelled in a rail car which had a bedroom for himself and his wife, a sitting room, a dining room, accommodation for guards and other staff, a staffed kitchen, and an observation deck. This railcar was tacked onto an ordinary train.
The disparity even extended to communications, the nomenklatura above a certain level communicating among themselves by means of a special system of reliable and secure telephones. This was the vertushka, or vertushki (there were several levels of service, all self-standing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertushka).
Now look at the rulers and beneficiaries of the Western system today. The lifestyle disparity between the favoured few and the rest came out all the more strongly during the “Covid” “scamdemic”/”panicdemic”.
At meetings of the G7 or G20 heads of government in 2020-2022, the top attendees went around unmasked, shaking hands, kissing the ladies who were governmental leaders or their wives. Meanwhile, right next to them, were the waiters, waitresses, bodyguards etc, all masked! Almost an insult, really, a finger put up to the sheep watching on TV or reading the newspapers.
Indeed, the same is true in terms of travel. Ordinary people were banned from travel, or allowed to travel only on sufferance and after complying with Kafka-esque conditions, but the wealthy few and the governmental leaders continued buzzing around on private jets, and in reality subject to few restrictions.
We see the hypocrisy even now. The Harry Formerly Known as Prince, with Meghan Mulatta, making several transcontinental journeys per month using large private jets, often in order to speak about how the travel of the bulk of the population must be restricted or banned.
Not just Harry and the Mulatta; look at, say, Bill Gates, Emma Thompson and the rest. All travelling on hugely polluting private jets, helicopters, superyachts etc and at the same time lecturing the rest of the population about how they must accept ever-declining living standards…
In fact, that wealthy and ultra-wealthy stratum already live lives very different from the main population. In the UK, for example. Private jets for overseas travel. Helicopters for intra-UK or short-distance European travel. If cars need be used, that would usually be for short-ish distances, and the vehicles will be those that insulate the occupants from the outside. Range-Rovers, Rolls-Royce etc.
Needless to say, the wealthy rarely if ever require the NHS. Private healthcare only. As for security, the police are only needed as a backup for those in staffed country houses or London penthouses etc. Private security, maybe even bodyguards.
One could continue, but you see the point. This is a matter of the exercise of power, as well as that of privilege. The discussion “socialism” v. “capitalism” is largely sterile.
Everywhere you look now, you see the masks coming off: “15-minute cities”, 20 mph speedlimits, ULEZ, “social credit” ideas, the banning of most cars (in the medium-term and even short-term), the threat of further faked biosecurity “health” measures such as the facemask nonsense, “lockdowns” etc like a Sword of Damocles waiting to fall.
Add to that the black-brown migration-invasion and the obvious implementation across Europe of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.
The black-brown hordes coming to Europe and including the UK are almost all coming from relatively poor living conditions in their home countries. For them, it does not matter that the NHS is failing, that the roads are falling to pieces, that pay and State benefits are low, that the police forces scarcely work, that the justice system is disintegrating etc. Why? Because all that is still far better than where they come from.
I am glad to see that a large part of the British population is at least becoming aware of the outline of what is happening.
“Welsh people have started fighting back against the country’s new 20mph speed limit by painting over newly-erected road signs for the newly-restricted zones.
Furious locals spray painted over signs for the 20mph limit after Wales’s new rules came into force today as lorry drivers also vowed to show their opposition by driving at 19mph.
Photos show furious drivers have now started fighting back against the scheme by vandalising the newly-erected speed limit signs themselves. Drivers taking to the road were also left confused as many local authorities failed to put up the new signs ahead of the 20mph limit coming into force.
Some drivers said they were ‘scared’ to go out in case of being trapped by police, static cameras and mobile speed vans, with one elderly couple having cancelled their trip to Aberystwyth to visit family due to their fear of getting a £100 fine.“

Having said that, if the Government pledges to keep the Triple Lock on the State Pension, and if it uprates the same before the 2024 Election, that may help to keep on board the pensioner vote which is most of the hard core Conservative vote. Then it will be a question of whether any other groups will vote Con (if only negatively, i.e. to keep out Lab).
Just managed to beat political journalist John Rentoul this week— a poor 4/10, as against Rentoul’s even less impressive “3.5/10”.
I disallowed myself the extra point for question no.10, which I really knew but could not recall. I knew and recalled the answers to questions 3, 5, 8, and 9.
The bourgeois left is so awful on the issue of crime. They think only “reactionaries” are concerned about things like shoplifting and anti-social behaviour. They could not be more wrong. Working-class communities crave stability, says Brendan O’Neillhttps://t.co/qil3aqAftF
As previously blogged, the armed forces of the Kiev regime are running out of cannon-fodder. There are few if any volunteers from Ukraine itself, and the virtue-signalling nitwits and would-be “soldiers of fortune” from the UK, USA etc have either been killed or returned home, and the supply has now dried-up. Thus the regime uses press-gangs to force service upon ever-less-useful categories of recruit: the disabled, the middle-aged, those with various illnesses etc.
“Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) has only one chance— to drag NATO into the war. All their efforts are directed to that end.
“Israel-based solicitor Mark Lewis has been heavily criticised by Mr Justice Nicklin in a recent High Court judgement. Lewis is known for acting for Rachel Riley against Mike Sivier and Laura Murray, and for John Ware against Jewish Voice for Labour and Naomi Wimborne-Idrissi. Lewis also acted for the late Dr Pete Newbon – a director of the notorious so-called ‘Labour Against Antisemitism’ (LAAS) group who was repeatedly disciplined by his employers for his behaviour on social media and was being sued by another of his victims – in his libel claim against Michael Rosen after Rosen had complained about Newbon’s tweeted misuse of Rosen’s famous ‘Bear Hunt’ book to attack former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.
In the recent case, Lewis came unstuck when he was acting for Richard Davidoff of ABC Estates, a lettings and leasehold management firm. Lewis was seeking a court order requiring Google to disclose the identities of people with gmail addresses who had left negative reviews about ABC Estates on Trustpilot. The evidence in support of the court order was two witness statement by Lewis. The judge described Lewis’ evidence in general as “nothing more than assertion” and “perfunctory, even desultory” and “simply not good enough” to justify making the court order.
Things then got much worse for Lewis. He had stated that the Trustpilot reviews were “false, fabricated statements which Unknown person(s) know are untrue”. The judge conducted some online research himself and found that one of the reviews was true and based on the findings of another court. The judge said it was:
a matter of very real concern that the Claimants put evidence before the Court, on an ex parte application, that was not true.
The judge did not require Lewis to provide an explanation for the evidence that was “seriously in error” and accepted that Lewis would not have knowingly misled the court. The judge’s explained Lewis’ evidence as being:
because he had simply failed to carry out sufficient (or any) research or to take adequate instructions from his clients.
The judge also stated that there had been a “significant failure” by Lewis to comply with the general obligation of full and frank disclosure. The judge refused all the applications and the escapade is likely to have costs Lewis’ clients tens of thousands of pounds. Perhaps Lewis’ claim against Michael Rosen would have ended in the same way?
Mr Justice Nicklin’s full judgment is available here, with comments about Lewis’s contribution from paragraph 84 onwards.
Mark Lewis is a former director of UK Lawyers for Israel (UKLFI) until his emigration to Israel and was involved in the relaunch of right-wing pro-Israel group Herut UK. UKLFI locked access to a YouTube video in which a panel discussed Lewis’s “very handy way of bankrupting organisations” the group considered to have done ‘wrong’. However, a transcript of the discussion is still available.
In 2018, Lewis was fined by the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority for abusive speech on social media toward a young Labour-supporting critic and others.“
[Skwawkbox]
Some of my blog posts from past years about the egregious Lewis:
Lewis was (is still?) a “Patron” of the malicious Jew-Zionist cabal known as the “Campaign Against Anti-Semitism” or “CAA”.
Incidentally, the title “Patron” does not indicate financial support. When Lewis was censured and fined by the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority a few years ago, his fine was reduced by two-thirds after his Counsel told the tribunal that Lewis’s sole assets were his clothes, a private pension worth £70 a week, and a used mobility scooter! So much for the so-called (sometimes, but only by the naive and ignorant) “top lawyer”! He then scuttled off to Israel.
Here's Mark Lewis formerly of UK Lawyers for Israel, attendee at launch of extremist Herut UK, getting into bother for retailing untrue evidence.
“Richard Davidoff, of ABC Estates, and his legal team bungled a high court attempt to force Google to reveal the identities of online reviewers whose comments they claimed were false and defamatory.
The case unravelled after libel lawyer Mark Lewis, of Patron Law, accused one reviewer of writing a “false, fabricated statement” that referenced the decision by ARMA and IRPM to expel ABC Estates and Richard Davidoff.
Mr Justice Nicklin became peppery in his ruling (below, pp84-89) as his own “basic online research” revealed that this allegation was in fact true…”
“It is a matter of very real concern that the Claimants put evidence before the Court, on an ex parte application, that was not true.
“Mr Lewis has not provided an explanation to the Court for this error (I have not required him to provide one). Nevertheless, I accept that Mr Lewis would not have knowingly misled the Court.
“It is likely that this error occurred because he had simply failed to carry out sufficient (or any) research or to take adequate instructions from his clients. Nevertheless, as a result, he included a statement in his witness statement that was seriously in error. That error was not detected (or corrected) by the Claimants.“
[Mr. Justice Nicklin, in the High Court]
The High Court judge accepted that Lewis “would not have knowingly misled the Court” (but why accept that? Lewis is hardly a credible witness). Still, as the extract shows, Lewis (once again) “bungled” his work…
“The judge [also] said “the underlying claims in defamation are hopelessly weak”.
[Mr. Justice Nicklin, reported by LKP]
Neither Lewis nor the Counsel in the case (also used by Lewis in other cases in the past several years) seem to have taken that last into account.
I agree with some of what Stewart says; in much of it I was there 30+ years ahead of him, though that is not entirely his fault, he being 16-17 years my junior in years.

“In 1907, Dr. Henry Cotton became the medical director. Believing that infections were the key to mental illness, he had his staff remove teeth and various other body parts that might become infected from the hospital patients. Cotton’s legacy of hundreds of fatalities and thousands of maimed and mutilated patients did not end with his leaving Trenton in 1930 or his death in 1933; in fact, removal of patients’ teeth at the Trenton asylum was still the norm until 1960.[3]“

The thing I always found laughable about the Cheddar Man hoax was that they pulled it out of the hat like a rabbit after they already brought in hate speech laws and 10 million foreigners anyway.

Target still lived in Somerset, so too did most of the 46 members of his extended family.

There should be an institute for both the study of history and also for the study of how to create the basis for a more advanced human type; the evolution of consciousness as well as the higher evolution of race-types. Similar to the 1933-1945 SS-Ahnenerbe, but with more of an orientation to the future.
Nature’s holy religion.
Talking point
“You carry in your blood the holy inheritance of your fathers and forefathers. You do not know those who have vanished in endless ranks into the darkness of the past. But they all live in you and walk in your blood upon the earth that consumed them in battle and toil and in which their bodies have long decayed.
Your blood is therefore something holy. In it your parents gave you not only a body, but your nature. To deny your blood is to deny yourself. No one can change it. But each decides to grow the good that one has inherited and suppress the bad. Each is also given will and courage.
You do not have only the right, but also the duty to pass your blood on to your children, for you are a member of the chain of generations that reaches from the past into eternity, and this link of the chain that you represent must do its part so that the chain is never broken.
But if your blood has traits that will make your children unhappy and burdens to the state, then you have the heroic duty to be the last. The blood is the carrier of life. You carry in it the secret of creation itself. Your blood is holy, for in it God’s will lives.”

I personally do not “support” or agree with everything Powell said or (even more) did in his political life, but his overall view of the migration-invasion (which in his day was the mere start of the flood which is now a tsunami) was surely correct.
One of Europe’s choke-points or bottlenecks for the migration-invasion which is being encouraged and facilitated by the traitors embedded in European society— the Zionist-poisoned political parties and msm, the similarly-contaminated legal systems etc. Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.

Shocker. EU diplomats brand Keir Starmer's immigration plan "delusional". As I say, anybody with a basic understanding of asylum policy knows this won't fix the problemhttps://t.co/ZBZZ2v2pRw
As if Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer even wants to “fix the problem“… he is part of that problem. System party leaders are all signed-up to the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan— creation of a mixed-race population over time, to be ruled by a thin stratum of Jews and Europeans, the latter mostly not fully-European but of partly Jewish background (like David Cameron-Levita, Theresa May, “Boris” Johnson etc) and/or with Jewish wives (like Starmer).
Even leaving that aside, Starmer knows that he will not lose votes at the 2024 General Election if he claims to “have a cunning plan” to “solve” the migration (invasion) crisis; and that is so even if his “cunning plan” is completely unworkable or does not in reality even exist. Unless, of course, the voters see through the lie.
I suspect @RishiSunak will be feeling quietly confident this evening after Labour's immigration plan. It's a non starter and anybody who has looked at crossings knows it won't work. As I've argued all along, immigration will become enormous issue at 2024 GE
That 2024 election would be the moment when a truly social-national party could and perhaps would break through into the major political league. Sadly, though, such a party does not exist.

Yes, a small area of one city in one country, but this did not exist at all, say 50 years ago. A warning from the future, and not only for the USA.
I recall hearing something on the radio in England in, I think, 1970, to the effect that London had a serious problem with heroin addiction; it had several hundred registered addicts, compared to about 50 in 1965. Now look! Millions of drug-abusers. Drug sodden council estates, but also the affluent msm rabble contaminated with drugs of various kinds; even MPs, indeed even Cabinet ministers (that little bastard Gove is far from the only one).

I opposed HS2 from the beginning. Why? Because first of all, HS2 was misconceived. High-speed rail is OK for countries which are very elongated and/or very large; it suits or would suit countries such as Chile, Japan, Russia, China, Australia, the USA, Canada, and even France (which after all is 2.5x the size of the UK and has important cities in all four “corners”, so to speak; indeed, in all directions.
The UK is only elongated and long if you go from, say Cornwall to the Scottish Highlands, or at least London to the major cities of Scotland. London-Edinburgh is about 400 miles (compare that to London-Penzance: about 300 miles). London to Inverness is over 550 miles.
In other words, HS2 only makes any sense at all if it goes either to Cornwall or Scotland. However, neither of those routes are being proceeded with.
The route London-Leeds was also axed. Now, it seems that even the section Birmingham-Manchester may be abandoned. That would leave only London-Birmingham, which would take 52 minutes instead of 1 hour 21 minutes on the present fastest trains. In other words, a saving of only 29 minutes. Passengers will also, for a long time, have to go to Old Oak Common in NW London in order to catch the train.
I also opposed —and still oppose— HS2 on environmental grounds: destruction of ancient woodland etc.
A further reason to oppose HS2 is that the money expended could have been deployed to improving the existing rail network, or extending it.
Finally, I have a problem with (in effect) the whole country being taxed in order that a tiny minority can travel faster. I felt the same about Concorde, despite its technical achievements.

“Sooner or later, the Ukrainian armed forces will certainly go on the defensive.” As soon as they do that, immediately expect our counterattack. It is always done this way: on the first day, it is checked whether the defensiveness is not just a ruse. If it is determined that it is not – on the second day, the “plowing” of enemy positions with artillery and rockets begins.
On the third day, the counter-attack takes place” “A counterattack at the operational level will have to be carried out by our fresh forces from the operational reserve.” Their task will be to return the territories that the Ukrainians “grabbed” from us during their raid last fall. Then we will start our offensive operations, which will gradually develop into a full-blooded offensive.”
