That horrible greedy farmer who badly damaged the River Lugg a couple of years ago has been released from prison, having served only 2-3 months of an already-lenient 10-month sentence.
A good example of how weak the justice system now is. Some flexibility is good, but when convicts are only serving a quarter of a prison sentence, and when that sentence is often inadequate to start with, the system itself starts to break down, as does society.

“Legal tender” is legal tender, but you can see the way the UK is going: “app only” purchasing, “15 minute ghettoes cities”, “social credit”, etc. Dystopian Britain. It’s happening, gradually, all around us, right in front of us.
Part of that is the fake “communitarianism” tested out during the “Covid” “scamdemic”/”panicdemic”, e.g. the “caring sharing” NHS which leaves millions to suffer and die; also the “emergency services” (police, ambulance, fire brigade) in general, which used to respond within minutes, maybe 5, 10, 15 minutes, but now (at least the first two) sometimes take hours to arrive or, more commonly, just refuse to attend at all, referring callers either to a website, or to some bloody “app”, or to often-useless advice lines.

That may be right about heat pumps, or some heat pumps, I do not know, but one thing I am sure of is that Reform UK has no chance, politically. Recent by-elections have made that clear.
I do not think that the tide of affairs is moving toward “libertarian” “conservatism”. The people want clean efficient government, in fact quite a few want (unconsciously) a less “Germanic” form of national socialism, or even national near-“communism”, as problems abound with cost of living, housing, crime, migration-invasion, huge inequality etc.
Whatever the UK population does, doesnβt change the climate of the World one iota. People will not tolerate being made poorer or have freedoms removed, for a Net zero con trick.

Ah…a terrible result for me too this week, one of the worst in the past several years of doing this Saturday quiz. I was even beaten by political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 4/10 points; this week I could manage only a mere 3/10. I only knew the answers to questions 3, 6, and 10. Had I thought longer, I should have got numbers 5 and 8 as well, but there it is.
Incidentally, question 6 may have been wrongly-put anyway (though I still got the answer); some people think that the phrase in question only originated in or about 1964, not 1956. I certainly thought so until today.

Piers Morgan talking about “where the line is” on satire, i.e. as to when should it not exist, when might it even be deemed unlawful. Of course, Morgan is just another msm moneygrubber and careerist who knows that, to continue his lucrative nonsense, he has to keep in with the Jew-Zionist cabals which, to a large extent, control and/or influence the TV industry and the msm in general.
TV shows have, for well over 60 years, “offended” the British people. No redress…
…and guess what group, more than any other, has “offended” the British people, slandered them, trashed their beliefs, culture, and way of life? That’s right…
Morgan even has the gall to claim that he supports freedom of expression, presumably excepting from that any situation where a Jew, or a group of Jews, however small in number, claims “offence” (and the “Campaign Against AntiSemitism” is really very small, just a handful of Jew-Zionists tweeting and causing trouble, making false and malicious complaints to police, Twitter, MPs, cafes or local authorities showing anti-Zionist films or hosting anti-Zionist comedians etc; but wealthy Jews stumped up Β£600,000+ last year so that the “CAA” could continue with what many call “lawfare” against freedom of expression).

The Church of England stopped being a spiritual organization many many years ago. The pro-Israel, pro-Jew-Zionist C. of E. under Welby is merely the gravestone on top.
The Labour Party, under Jewish-lobby puppets Starmer, Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper etc, is on track, arguably, to form a government in 2024 (though the fat lady has not yet sung), but that fake “popularity” is wholly by default, because we the people have, at present, a Conservative Party regime so corrupt, shambolic, and useless that even fairly hard-core former Conservative Party voters are either voting elsewhere or, in far greater numbers, abstaining in by-elections.
The “Labour surge” in the opinion polls is purely that— contempt for the Conservative Party government’s uselessness, which has been the case since the 2010 election that brought the part-Jews, David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne to power.
That shambolic inability to govern properly continued under (also part-Jewish) Theresa May and then (this becomes ridiculous) part-Jew Boris Johnson and his cronies. Then, of course, we endured a few weeks of utter nonsense under ignorant little careerist “ho” Liz Truss and her “African at Eton” Chancellor, Kwasi (aka Woollyhead Trussbanger). Liz Truss was then sacked (by any other word) and replaced by Indian money-juggler Rishi Sunak, arguably the least convincing of the lot (apart from, obviously, Liz Truss and Woollyhead Trussbanger).
In the above-noted circumstances, and after 13+ years (except during the “Covid” “panicdemic” of 2020-22) of “austerity” policies, which were actually counter-productive, it is scarcely surprising that people are more than unenthusiastic (contemptuous, despairing) about the Conservative Party.
There again, Starmer-Labour is now not even promising much of a change from the policies (if they can be so dignified) of the present Conservative Party omnishambles. In fact, the difference is mostly meaningless hot air from Starmer and, mainly, Rachel Reeves.
Labour Party rank-and-file members (who numbered, under Corbyn, about 600,000, but who now number about 385,000 and that number falling fast), may well think “what is the point in tramping round streets canvassing etc, just so that a ‘Con-lite’, Jewish-lobby, Starmer government can be installed and then carry out policies almost identical to those of Sunak?”
This is the moment when, if we had a truly open “democracy”, a social-national party might sweep the board. However, here again we come up against the well-entrenched Jew-Zionist lobby, which makes sure (so far) that anything even mildly “national”, let alone social-national, is demonized, using all the msm puppets and controlled outlets, and ranging from news to (unfunny) comedy. One example would be Baddiel, perhaps, arguably, describable as “the unthinking man’s Jonathan Miller“.
Reverting to the semi-rigged battle between equally-misnamed “Labour” and “Conservative”, it seems to me that, in the expected 2024 General Election, the most important factor will not be ideological division, nor any enthusiasm for either System party, but how many voters will abstain, and where, and why.
The steady and fairly considerable outflow of Labour Party members will not be decisive at its present rate, not before 2025. About 5,000 per month. In 17 months (i.e. until the last possible date of the next general election), that might be 90,000, out of 385,000 members at present.
It may be that, in a general election, voter abstentions on the Con side will be fewer than at the recent by-elections, and that there may be many more than expected on the Lab side. Also, that Starmer and Rachel Reeves and Yvette Cooper will be quite literally hated so much that many may either abstain, or vote non-Labour, simply to prevent their having power.
I do not describe myself as a “conspiracy theorist”, but it is certainly true that, in the years since I have been running this blog, most of my predictions or those with which I have agreed, have indeed come to pass.
That one sounds like an enemy of the British people. The System gave him an OBE. What does that say? That the System itself is also the enemy of the British people.

Look at the big picture as it now is.
Sanctions against Russia have mostly hurt the EU, the UK, and the USA, not Russia. Western and Central Europe is facing economic and socio-political meltdown if inflation continues to rise and incomes to drop.
Russia (unlike Ukraine) is a world nuclear power, with maybe 6,000 usable nuclear weapons; it has hundreds of millions of people, and territory nearly twice the size of the USA (and over 70 times the size of the UK).
Much of the world outside the NATO alliance is at least neutral towards Russia, and many states are with Russia on Ukraine.
Russia is benefiting financially from oil and gas sales to non-sanctions countries, and they are benefiting from trade with Russia, trade much of which was formerly USA-Russia or EU-Russia.
Ukraine simply cannot “win” against Russia, however many tanks and other pieces of equipment are supplied to the regime in Kiev. It is a logical impossibility. The only possibilities, in the medium-term, say up to 2030, are Russian victory over the whole of the eastern part of Ukraine, as well as Crimea and the Black Sea coastal zone, or a stalemate, after which US/EU/UK support for the Kiev regime will eventually fall away.
The next US President will probably scale back US support for Zelensky and his regime, and will almost certainly not increase it.

“Erasure” of Jews? Ha ha.
Oh well, people can dream, I suppose…
In reality, though, whether in TV, on radio, in films, in newspapers, in fact in the msm generally, indeed in UK, US, French (etc) society in general, you can hardly get away from “them”. “They” have certainly not been “erased”, and there is no “erasure” happening, at least that I can see. Au contraire.
Baddiel does not object to Jews or blacks playing non-Jew and non-black roles, including roles of people who actually existed (even Anne Boleyn was played by a black American woman not so long ago, absurdly), but he does object to Jews being played by non-Jews, so long as the said Jews are —rightly or wrongly— considered to be positive characters.
Presumably, Baddiel does not want Jewish theatricals confined to playing Jewish roles.
“They” always want things their way.
As a matter of fact, I have never seen the creators of atomic weapons (almost all of which, in the 1940s and 1950s, were Jews) as being very positive, especially in view of the fact that they wanted to use the weapons not only on Japan but also in Europe, and especially on Germany. That was the original target. Thank God Europe dodged at least that bullet.
Atomic science in the 1940s, 1950s was largely, though not entirely, a preserve of Jews, starting of course, with Einstein.
The benefits of [atomic science] in practice are far outweighed by the negative aspects.
Would it not have been better had [atomic science in practice] never existed? Would it not be better if [atomic energy and weapons] did not exist, or were, in the future, somehow eliminated?
As for blacks playing white Europeans from history, when will a white European actor be playing the part of Nelson Mandela in a TV or film drama? Never, I am presuming…

What a massive hypocrite Toby Young is. He never said a word when I was wrongfully and indeed unlawfully disbarred in 2016, or in relation to any of the false and malicious complaints made to Twitter, online fora and even police about me (made, in every single case, by Jews). One of those matters is still ongoing, in fact, I having been (some time ago and quite wrongly) charged under the notorious “bad law” of Communications Act 2003, s.127. That case will not come to trial (if at all) until Autumn 2023.
In fact, that much-abused law (mostly, in the political realm, abused by Jews engaging in “lawfare”) is set to be either repealed, or at any rate superseded, next year. It may well be that I shall be that last person tried under its poorly-drafted provisions.
Reverting to Toby Young’s hypocrisy, he and his so-called “Free Speech Union” also never said a word in defence of others who have been persecuted and/or prosecuted by Jewish interests: Jez Turner, Alison Chabloz, and many others.

Even before the war, the population of Ukraine was in decline, mainly because of the past 30+ years of corrupt, shambolic “independence” as well as, pre-“Independence”, decades of Brezhnevite stagnation when Ukraine was a constituent part of the Soviet Union.
Now, huge numbers of, mainly, young and youngish men have been killed, many others badly wounded. Hundreds of thousands in all. Many Ukrainian women, at the same time, have taken the chance to settle in other parts of Europe. Most men are barred from leaving. The birth-rate in Ukraine must already have declined even further. This is a state without a future.

How ridiculous, to move a successful company like English National Opera out of its long-established home to some provincial centre.
Most countries concentrate their cultural treasures in terms of opera, ballet etc in one city, usually the national capital, a concentration of cultural forces. Moscow, Paris, etc. Not all, but the exceptions are countries which were only unified (or created) in the 19thC (Germany and Italy, the USA).
By all means tour around the UK, but base yourself in London. Also, the concentration of cultural companies in London leads to cross-fertilization of the arts.
The most important thing is to keep a bloc of white Northern Europeans intact, because that bloc can be the foundation for a later “super-race”, one far ahead of where we are now. That foundation has to be “post-Aryan” and white European; the other races and groups cannot provide such a foundation. The later “super-race” will be a quantum leap in human evolution. The other races and ethnicities will be left behind, just as, compared to our world of today, previous forms of humanity have been left behind.

Israel-puppet Rachel Reeves. She would never acknowledge that a large number of organizations including banks and law firms have been promoting —and, in many cases, over-promoting— women for virtue-signalling and box-ticking reasons for about 30 years. I myself have seen many examples.
One correction: as far as I can see, the only “neo-Nazi problem” that Ukraine has is that so few “neo-Nazis” seem to exist there. If that is wrong, why do they tolerate Zelensky’s corrupt, brutal, and shambolic NWO/ZOG tyranny?

Interesting. Usually, the “instructor” in such a situation would be the one from the army of the state, not from the private military company. However, who knows from where that “instructor” has come, in career terms? Russian Spetsnaz? The post-Soviet VDV? These are not fake “mercenaries” as once found in Soldier of Fortune etc. They are a very serious fighting force.
“A historic royal census, known as “swan upping”, has revealed a 40% drop in the number of cygnets on the River Thames, compared with last year.
The decline has been blamed on avian flu but also a growing problem of violence, including shootings, catapult attacks and dogs killing swans.“
[BBC]
I was saddened to hear, on BBC Radio 3 news this morning, that same report, i.e. that the number of swans counted on the Thames this year is about 40% lower than in previous years, and that, worse yet, part of the decline is because of “increased violence towards swans“. Jesus Christ! What sort of horrible bastards are cruel to swans?! They should be flayed alive if caught mistreating swans.
Having said that, there was always a small amount of such badness. I remember rowing my inflatable boat, with someone from my school, down the then-still-closed river Kennet in 1971, and seeing a dead swan in the water. The swan was obviously not long dead. That happened somewhere between Newbury and Reading. Not long after having seen the dead swan, we passed an unpleasant-looking young man on the bank, not older than about 20, with some kind of rifle or air-rifle. Were the two sights connected? I think probably they were.
Incidentally, the Kennet, and connected Kennet and Avon, was then only navigable by carrying the boat around disused locks, over barbed-wire fences etc. Since then, volunteers have been able to re-open the waterway to traffic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kennet_and_Avon_Canal.

Save this video and send it to @maitlis when sheβs quite rightly appalled that she canβt buy food or access basic services. Free speech is defending the speech of those you disagree with the most. Moronic lack of self awareness.
Ignorant Jewish talking head Emily Maitlis, hugely overpaid by the BBC thanks to the outdated and tyrannical “licence fee” system, wilfully fails to see the bigger point about freedom of expression. I can only assume that she is unaware that other people, less famous than Nigel Farage, have also been “cancelled” for having the “wrong” views (i.e. anti-System views), people such as Mark Collett, Laura Towler, Sam Melia (all of Patriotic Alternative), and others. They all lost their personal bank accounts, and they were not “cancelled” by Coutts but by standard high street banks such as Barclays and (I think) Halifax.
You hear much (and rightly so) about the attempted bank account cancellation of Farage, but where were Laurence Fox, the “Free Speech Union”, Toby Young etc when those other victims had their bank accounts cancelled? Where were those “champions of free speech” when Alison Chabloz was imprisoned for posting online legitimate satire about Jewish and Zionist behaviour, or during my continuing persecution at the hands of the Jew-Zionist lobby?

Pakistani “Scotsman”, SNP Leader and First Minister of Scotland Humza Yousaf, now proposes the flooding of Scotland with new huge numbers of Pakistani and other migrant-invaders.
If that were ever to happen as proposed, many migrant-invaders would take up Scottish citizenship purely in order to, sooner or later, relocate to England. That in turn would entail the building of…a wall…to keep them out. Certainly the construction of border fortifications.
In reality, though, it will almost certainly never happen. Even bearing in mind the pseudo-nationalist idiocy that leads to nearly half of the Scottish electorate voting SNP (that’s right— the SNP has never garnered even half of Scottish votes), this must surely give even die-hard SNP supporters pause.
Yousaf may just have cost the SNP a goodly portion of its votes.
I usually steer clear of commenting on Scottish politics, but think that faux-“Independence” is losing traction.

A woman once asked me, about 40 years ago, whether I felt in any personal way “betrayed” by Kim Philby. Obviously not. Philby was born in 1912, 44 years before me, I never knew him or, as far as I know, anyone who knew him (excepting that I once or twice had lunch in the 1990s with an ex-KGB officer turned businessman, “Ed”, who had once heard a lecture by him at the Lubyanka) and, last but not least, I have never been an officer or agent of SIS (or any other intelligence or security agency).
However, the woman’s question missed the point. Philby betrayed his Service, and colleagues, but also the State. The crime was against the State, just as is the case, fundamentally, with almost any crime.
It is immaterial that I myself have never been mug enough to waste money sending funds to “Jack Monroe” so that she can snort it up her snout or guzzle it down her throat.

The contract soldier or “mercenary” has fallen somewhat onto the margins of European affairs since the condottieri of the Renaissance era, though in the 20thC many Europeans served, some more honourably than others, in mercenary forces elsewhere in the world, mainly in Africa. Among the better ones were 5 Commando under Mike Hoare in the Congo of the early/mid 1960s, and those who served under the Rhodesian flag in the late 1960s and 1970s. Among the less honourable, les Affreux (“the Frightful”), Belgian and French mercenaires in the Congo circa 1961-62, and some of those who served in Biafra; also, arguably the rock-bottom, those (some completely untrained) who went to Angola under “Colonel” “Callan” (in reality, Costas Georgiou, a Greek-Cypriot dishonourably discharged from the Parachute Regiment of the UK, and who never held a rank higher than corporal, if that): see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Costas_Georgiou; see also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercenary#Africa; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mad_Mike_Hoare.
“To recruit his force, Hoare placed newspaper advertisements in Johannesburg and Salisbury (modern Harare, Zimbabwe) for physically fit white men capable of marching 20 miles per day who were fond of combat and were “tremendous romantics” to join 5 Commando.[5] The moniker Mad Mike which was given to him by the British press suggested a “wildman” type of commander, but in fact Hoare was very strict and insisted the men of 5 Commando always be clean-shaven, keep their hair cut short, never swear and attend church services every Sunday.[5] The men of 5 Commando were entirely white and consisted of a “ragbag of misfits” upon whom he imposed stern discipline.[5] 5 Commando was a mixture of South Africans, Rhodesians, British, Belgians, and Germans, the last of whom were mostly Second World War veterans who had arrived in the Congo wearing Iron Crosses.”
[Wikipedia].
[Mike Hoare, when commander of 5 Commando in the Congo]
The Wagner Group, aka PMC Wagner, has changed the rules. Here is a notionally private military company effectively acting as the private part of a state military force, though not signatory to any international conventions and, by the same token, unprotected by any.
In the 1960s and at most other modern times, mercenaries were seen only in quite small groups, certainly no more than a few hundred. That alone marks out Wagner Group as something new. Even Mike Hoare’s successful 5 Commando consisted of only about 300 men. The Wagner Group can (or could, until the recent fighting for Bakhmut/Artyomovsk) muster tens of thousands. The whole of the British Army is now no more than about 70,000-80,000, and most of those are either headquarters or “rear-echelon” forces, not combat-ready.
It comes as a slight surprise to realize that Wagner Group might even be a match for the maybe 30,000 troops who comprise the whole of the fighting part of the British Army.
It is an open question as to what would happen were Wagner Group to attack and/or get into combat with, the forces of a NATO state (eg Poland). That is, would it trigger Article 5 of the Treaty, and so create a general European conflict?
I suppose that the last time the British used private forces on any scale would be the seaborne “privateers” of the 16th-18th centuries: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privateer, unless you include the arrangement with the Gurkhas, though they are now completely subsumed into the British and other armies.

Reading tweets from pro-immigration cretins such as tweeter “@DawnRowatt” is more than irritating; it is actually slightly frightening. It shows that there are rather a lot of people in this country devoid of any real awareness of how the country is changing for the worse (the much worse) via mass immigration and migration-invasion. Such “refugees welcome” and similar dimwits are immune to logic, to facts, to intelligent analysis. What does that leave?

The Israelis train their staff officers and others by telling them to prepare a plan over a period of a week. 24 hours before the wargame is due to start, the officers are told that the situation has changed radically along lines explained. A new plan therefore has to be prepared. Then, less than an hour (I think a matter of 10-20 minutes) before the start, the officers are told that the situation has changed again. They are instructed to think of a new plan at once.
That method has been proven to have been effective in training officers able to think on their feet, as seen both in 1967 and in 1973, and plays to the Jewish/Israeli strength in off-the cuff innovation.
The Russians and Ukrainians of senior rank were, at least until recently, brought up in the Soviet idea of carefully-thought-out plans, and wargames that were mostly for show, to be displayed like a panorama to senior officers, political leaders, and in propaganda films. In a word— inflexible.

One of the things thatβs so unpleasant about people like Jack Monroe is that they use up what isnβt an inexhaustible supply of empathy and goodwill. Nice people will think twice about helping someone in trouble or extending their sympathy because they got burned by a grifter.

“Jack Monroe” has pulled the old “suicide” trick quite a few times, and it always seems to co-incide with occasions when there is much scrutiny of her obvious “grifting” and outright fraud. The depressing thing is that many mugs fall for it every single time.

As I predicted on the blog a couple of days ago, this was a “battle of the apathies”. Complete “Conservative” omnishambles meets Labour mediocrity (both on the national and constituency levels).
The successful Conservative candidate drew a veil over both the non-performance of the Rishi Sunak government and the egregiously poor behaviour (and capabilities) of ex-MP “Boris” Johnson; the candidate just kept hitting at the ridiculous Sadiq Khan ULEZ scheme [“Ultra Low Emission Zone”], and saying very little else about anything.
In a sense that concentration on ULEZ shows how meaningless the supposed “democracy” of the UK now is. The ULEZ idea and policy was first mooted by none other than “Boris”-idiot and the Conservative Party in London. Quite apart from that, the new Con Party MP, one Steve Tuckwell [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Tuckwell] will be able to exercise precisely zero influence over the ULEZ scheme and Sadiq Khan.
The Labour Party candidate, Danny Beales, was arguably not a good candidate in the particular constituency, an outer London suburb. Gay, a former councillor in inner-city Camden, and a graduate of the London School of Economics.
That said, the result was close— 495 votes decided it. Both the LibDem voters (526, fifth place), and/or the Green Party voters (893, third place), had they voted tactically, could have prevented the narrow Con Party victory. Neither Greens nor LibDems had a chance of winning, and both lost their deposits, along with the other 13 candidates, all of whom could be described as either “minor” or “joke” candidates.
The actor Laurence Fox, for Reclaim, did well, in a minor way, to come fourth, not far behind the Green. Still, this was really between Con Party (13,965 votes, 45.2%) and Labour (13,470, 43.6%). The other 15 parties and independents only scored 11.2% between them.
It does puzzle me why LibDem voters in particular did not all vote tactically. Some did, plainly, looking at previous election results where the LibDem vote was higher by far (peaking at 20% in 2010, though only 6.3% in 2019), but not enough.
Why did 526 LibDems bother to trot down to vote, knowing that their candidate had no chance? Even if they hated both Con and Lab, and so were unwilling to vote for either, why bother to vote? As someone said of golf, “a good walk spoiled“.
So a Conservative Party win, though scarcely a ringing endorsement.
Turnout was about 2/3 of that in 2019, and indeed the previous elections. I am assuming from that that many former Conservative voters, in what was since creation in 2010 a fairly safe Conservative seat (a new seat on these boundaries), just threw up their hands in disgust at both main System parties, could find no other home for their votes, and so “voted with their feet”— abstained.
The successful Labour candidate is 25, once again (like the Labour candidate at Uxbridge) gay (seems that it is almost compulsory now in the Labour Party), and has only worked for 18 months since leaving university. Interestingly, those 18 months were spent working at the Confederation of British Industry, a more usual place in which to find young Conservatives, surely?
Also, he spent some months in 2019 and 2020 working with Wes Streeting, the “centrist” (Labour Friends of Israel) MP. So it seems that Keir Mather will fit easily into the Keir Starmer Labour Party. Not much else is yet known about him: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keir_Mather.
Why did Mather win what had previously been regarded as a safe Conservative seat? As at Uxbridge, the implication is surely obvious: former Conservative voters were appalled at both major System parties, and so preferred to stay home rather than vote Labour (or elsewhere).
Mather scored 46% of the overall vote, as against 34.3% scored by his Con Party opponent.
Since the creation of the seat in 2010, the Conservative Party had won easily all elections, scoring between 49.4% (2010) and 60.3% (2019). Labour, however, had scored only around 25% of the vote, except in 2017, under Corbyn, when the Labour Party candidate managed over 34%.
The key here, as with Uxbridge, lies in the turnout. The by-election turnout was only 44.8%, whereas in 2019 it was 71.7% (and in previous elections, not dissimilar).
The implication, again, as at Uxbridge, is that former Conservative Party voters, in a formerly safe Conservative area, simply decided not to vote.
There was obviously a degree of tactical voting at Selby; the LibDem vote went down from 8.6% to 3.3%; without tactical voting, the result would have been much closer but not, in my view, different.
Incidentally, the LibDems only managed sixth place, no doubt because many otherwise LibDems voted Labour. The third place went to the Greens, whose candidate was the only one of the minor candidates to save his deposit (5.1%).
I was interested to see that a “Yorkshire Party” candidate, one Mike Jordan, who failed to fill in his nomination papers properly and so was a blank space (not even “Independent”) on the ballot paper, yet managed to score 4.2%. Not bad in the circumstances, and maybe a sign that localism, or at least regionalism, may be resurgent as central government falters and fails.
The Selby contest had other things in common with that at Uxbridge— contempt for the former MP (at Selby, he had stepped down apparently in order to damage Sunak and his party, and after having been passed over for a peerage); the fact that both seats were 2010 creations on their present boundaries; and of course the fact that the public are both despairing and angry at the overall non-performance by Sunak and his Cabinet. Mass immigration, migration invasion, cost of living increases, inflation, crime, NHS defaults etc.
The result was that Labour won at Selby, and very nearly won at Uxbridge, only by default. There is no enthusiasm at all for the Labour Party and its non-policies (basically the same as the Conservative Party policies), but equally there is no enthusiasm (and no respect) for Sunak and his Cabinet of (mainly) non-Brits (Indians, a black or half-caste or two, the odd Jew). These were by-elections. The ruling party is inevitably on the back foot.
Starmer’s strategy seems to be not to rock the boat now that Labour is ahead in the opinion polls. It is hard for Sunak and Con Party to score a hit on Labour’s battleship simply because Labour policy now so closely mirrors that of the Con Party. Almost indistinguishable. If the Conservative Party attacks Labour policy, it is to a large extent criticizing its own policy. In a sense, brilliant… but also dispiriting and pointless.
The LibDem candidate, Sarah Dyke [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Dyke] won easily, as predicted. I blogged briefly about her a couple of days ago. Her vote-share of 56.4%, as against the Conservative candidate’s 26.2%, mirrors in reverse almost exactly the result at the 2019 General Election.
Third place went to the Greens, with a fairly sizeable vote (10.2%). Reform UK beat Labour and three minor candidates for fourth place, but still lost the deposit, with 3.4%.
In a mostly affluent and bucolic area of this sort, Labour has little chance, and its vote has dropped below 5% in the past, though it scored 17.2% in 2017 (under Corbyn) and 12.9% in 2019. It is clear that, realising that Labour had no chance, former Labour voters voted tactically at the by-election, and that Labour’s 2.6% vote reflected that.
Turnout was, as at the other by-elections yesterday, pathetic— 44.23%. That compares to 75.6% in 2019, and turnouts in previous election which only once dropped below 70%, and which once exceeded 82%.
The LibDems held Somerton and Frome until 2015, so were always going to have a chance in the seat, once the “Con Coalition” of 2010-2015 faded from immediate memory, though the damage from that was still evident in 2019, at which election the LibDems scored only 26.2% (exactly the same as the Conservative Party vote at yesterday’s by-election).
The conclusion is pretty clear: the Conservative voters of 2019 either stayed home yesterday, or switched to the LibDems, Former Labour voters switched to LibDem to hit out at the Sunak misgovernment.
As at the other two by-elections, the contempt many apparently felt for the ex-MP, Warburton, was certainly another important factor, though perhaps not the most important.
Overall conclusion as to the main System parties in the light of the by-elections
The LibDems only have a chance to gain seats in rural/affluent parts of southern or south-western England. I do not see them recovering in any big way elsewhere.
The Conservative Party government is toast, surely. It will have to fall back on its hard core, mostly fairly comfortably-off homeowners aged 70+.
475 seats for Labour. That is “elected dictatorship”.
I just tried the “user-defined poll” at Electoral Calculus. My guesses resulted in only 61 seats for the Conservative Party.
What about Labour? Well, I detect no real enthusiasm for Labour, which means that there is every chance that the new MP for Selby may only be an MP for about a year, and will then have to find a less well-paid and less interesting (?) job.
More seriously, the only way that Indian money-juggler Rishi Sunak could claw back some electoral support would be to STOP the boats, CUT BACK the main (i.e. “legal”) mass immigration, DEPORT hundreds of thousands, RENATIONALIZE water, rail and possibly the energy utilities, and start to really bat for Britain.
Those 2019 Conservative Party voters might return to the Con fold, but only if they see some action; words are played-out.
Still, none of the three by-election seats are natural Labour territory.
Pretty hard, though, for an Indian whose Cabinet is mainly non-white, or Jewish, and who worked for the predatory Goldman Sachs bankers (and so is a globalist “libertarian” by instinct).
It seems to me a 50-50 chance that the Conservative Party MPs will ditch Sunak before the next general election, but if they do, who on Earth can they try to present to the public as a credible leader?
As for attacking Starmer, the only things that might work would be to use American-style personal attacks, and to focus on his complete mendacity, his broken promises, on his “taking the knee” to the “Black Lives Matter” thugs, and his being completely in the pocket of the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby (the only thing is— so are the “Conservatives”…).
Conclusion, then— Labour will probably win in 2024 by default, but if some real movement on the above-designated issues were to happen, it might be a different story…

As for “Baroness” Chapman, she was an MP for 9 years (2010-2019), and then (having been voted out as MP) was elevated to the Lords on Starmer’s nomination, having previously done sweet FA by way of work in her life except a short time as the constituency manager for ghastly careerist MP Alan Milburn. So she can shut up. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenny_Chapman.
She is the mother of children, and that (and presumably being a “home-maker”) is a very honourable estate, but it is not the “real life experience” of work in the outer world, as per that clip.
As for Johnny Mercer MP, I have found him a big disappointment as MP, but I think that he can claim a great deal more “life experience” than “Baroness” Chapman, let alone that epicene little creature who is now the MP for Selby and Ainsty.
Many people on Twitter are incredibly ignorant and at the same time very dogmatic. I just saw a tweet saying that the Selby creature is “2-3 years older than Margaret Roberts [i.e. Margaret Thatcher] when she became an MP...”.
In fact, wrong, and on two counts. First, Margaret Roberts was born in 1925, and became an MP in 1959, shortly before her 34th birthday. She had married in 1951, so fought her first successful first election as Margaret Thatcher and not Margaret Roberts as claimed.
Well, there it is. Effete, epicene little “Labour MP” is going to support Starmer, Rachel Reeves etc in continuing the policy (policies?) laid down by the Con Coalition of David Cameron-Levita, Theresa May, “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss, and now the Indian money-juggler, Sunak.
Anyone who thinks that Starmer-Labour will be in any way an improvement on the “Conservative” omnishambles of a Government is sadly mistaken; in fact, deluded.
Actually, listening to Keir Mather there, I think that “Lord Charles” would have sounded more credible.
[Lord Charles, with Ray Alan]
To be honest, my first thought on seeing and hearing Keir Mather is that he seemed to be in need of a good kick.

The by-election was triggered by the standing-down of the Conservative Party MP David Warburton, following multiple allegations (some admitted) of misconduct: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Warburton].
In 2019, Warburton received nearly 56% of the vote, with the LibDems in second place on 26%.
Labour has no chance here and, on paper, this would normally be another easy win for the Con Party, but the manner of departure of the last MP, added to the anger across the country aimed at the Con Party government of Sunak, may mean a LibDem by-election upset, particularly as this is merely a by-election.
In 2019, only 4 candidates stood (Con, Lab, LibDem, and Green); at the by-election, there are also Christian People’s Alliance, UKIP, Reform UK, and an Independent.
The bookies’ favourite is the LibDem, a lady from a local farming family who is also a local councillor. She seems to hit all the buttons, even the sex one, being female after the defaults of male MP Warburton (sex pest allegations, and connected cocaine abuse).
The bookmakers have the LibDem, Sarah Dyke, as even-money favourite, with the Con Party candidate on 20-1, and Labour at 250-1. The rest are not even quoted. You could probably get 1000-1 against any of them.
Experience shows that bookmakers are a poor guide to by-election results, but the LibDem looks pretty sure to win this, especially when many Labour supporters will be voting tactically, and many former Con voters displaying apathy and/or unwillingness to vote for the present Government.
The by-election of course triggered by the standing-down of “Boris” Johnson.
The 2019 election attracted 12 candidates, because the seat of the sitting Prime Minister is always popular. “Boris”-idiot won with 52.6% in 2019, with Labour garnering 37.6%. Only one other candidate had a saved deposit (the LibDem, on 6.3%).
The by-election has 17 candidates, among them the TV actor, Laurence Fox, for Reclaim. The bookmakers only rate two seriously— Con and Labour. The Labour Party candidate is quoted at just better than even-money, with Conservative Party candidate at 9/1. The Labour price has not altered much, but the Conservative has gone out from an opening 3/1 to 9/1, and the LibDems are now at 1000/1. The third-placed runner is now Reform UK (but only on 300/1).
“A nurse sitting with her husband drinking coffee said: βThe biggest issue is ULEZ. Iβve retired from the NHS after 49 years. What about the carers who canβt make visits any more?β
People in Uxbridge tend not to conform to media stereotypes, for example that the NHS is in an unbearable state of crisis. The nurse said: βIf I had my time again Iβd do the same job again. I love my job.β As she walks round Uxbridge she is often greeted by her former patients.
How will she vote in the by-election? βUp until Jeremy Corbyn I was a Labour person,β she said. βLabour looked after the schools, the hospitals and the elderly.
βBut the party has changed now and Iβm afraid I have no confidence in them. Keir Starmer wouldnβt come out and actually go against Sadiq Khan [on ULEZ] in a television interview, when he was asked about him.“
“βIt canβt be any worseβ: In Boris Johnsonβs back yard, Britons are desperate for a change.
Uxbridge, like Britain, is in a rut.
The town is where the capitalβs westward sprawl ends. Two Tube lines serving central London finish their journeys here, as picturesque shades of green mingle with the gray and brown hues of suburban developments. But its high streets are shrinking and the local hospital is one of the worst in Britain β rated βinadequateβ by the sectorβs watchdog.
And nationwide, soaring inflation, public sector strikes and the aftermath of Brexit have left families poorer and services creaking to the point of collapse. Renewing a passport, taking a train, buying groceries, seeing a doctor β virtually everything is more difficult in Britain than it once was.
Change is in the air, and Labour is set to benefit. Opinion polls confidently predict the party, led by Keir Starmer, a former senior prosecutor, will win power in a general election expected next year.
But Uxbridge is a test case for that theory, and tensions are high. βYou can see the national polls, just like I can see, but these are real votes,β Steve Reed, the partyβs shadow justice secretary tasked with running the local campaign, told CNN on a hot afternoon on the high street. He predicts a βtighter raceβ than some media have suggested.

Just three-and-a-half years after one of the partyβs worst-ever electoral defeats, the outcome of Thursdayβs vote in Uxbridge will indicate how far Labour has come.“
[CNN]
Maybe not so obvious as at Somerton and Frome, but here too it looks as if the Conservative Party is facing an uphill struggle. Uxbridge is a more typical contest though, maybe, compared to Somerton and Frome, and one in which many voters despise all the System parties, and particularly Con and Lab. A battle of apathies?
Selby and Ainsty
The Selby and Ainsty constituency is unusual in that it has been represented since creation in 2010 by only one MP, a Conservative, who seems to be abandoning ship in the moral certainty that the national unpopularity of the Sunak government will wash him away at the next general election.
I do not know why the departed MP, Nigel Adams, chose to stand down in 2023 rather than wait until 2024 and the next general election. Maybe he did not want the opprobrium of having been voted out. Rumour has it that he wanted a peerage and, when not given one, resigned in order to lash out at his own party. Maybe.
Adams won his four elections convincingly, and increased his vote share steadily from 49.4% in 2010 to 60.3% in 2019.
Labour scored about a quarter of the vote in 2010, 2015, and 2019 but, interesting to see, managed over a third of the vote in 2017, when Corbyn was still Labour leader.
12 candidates are contesting the by-election, but this will be between Con and Lab. The bookmakers have Labour just better than even-money, but Con on about 13/2. A few weeks ago, the result seemed more speculative.
Political websites and newspapers have taken an interest in the Selby contest, perhaps because it may give a clue as to the Northern “Red Wall” seats.
βIβd like to think theyβd like to do more for the working people,β Tracy Peabody, a dental nurse and mother of three young boys, told CNN on a high street in Ruislip Manor. βBut I canβt help thinking itβs two wings from the same bird, all singing from the same song sheet,β she added of Labour and the Conservatives.

“Labour and the Conservative party may have found a tougher opponent than one another as they prepare to fight a by-election in Selby and Ainsty this week: entrenched despondency among an electorate that’s tired of Westminster drama and the challenges posed by the cost of living crisis.”
“Selby local Rachel Young paused while walking around the shops to watch the candidates for Thursday’s poll take part in a televised hustings for the BBC in the town centre last week.
She told PoliticsHome that she still has not decided who to vote for, but thinks that many people she knows will simply not bother at all.”
For me, what will be most interesting will be to see whether Labour wins because people have voted out of enthusiasm (unlikely) or simply because former Conservative voters have given up bothering to vote (more likely). The numbers will tell the story.
My guess is that the LibDems will win Somerton and Frome; a meaningless protest vote. As to the others, Labour will probably score in both, but by default only, because former Conservative voters will just stay home. Only very silly people believe that Labour-label in government will be much, if at all, better than the present shambles.

Also, the number of migrant-invaders coming “legally” is ten times the number arriving in rubber boats.
