🚨 We have removed our paywall for the whole weekend 🚨
🔓 In light of last night's assault on the free press, we have made the decision that all the Telegraph journalism published this weekend is now free to read on our websitehttps://t.co/HDCfcjIPkE
The police are supposed to operate in these conditions – explosions, smoke, Molotov cocktails. A study just released claims that a “small amount of violence” is getting too much coverage and slanting the truth. False! This scene should be wall to wall net news. People are scared. https://t.co/ZnP3KSmc9k
Thing is, once the Cultural Marxists have destroyed the army and defended & neutralised the police, it'll just be us and them.#whomthegodshttps://t.co/1Er9jhSWbq
If you thought they wouldn't get any worse, you clearly missed the point: Control isn't established by overseeing the sensible, but by enforcing the ludicrous and imposing the monstrous.#endthelockdownpic.twitter.com/qRSVLiqxso
“Will it ever end?” Only when we rise up to exterminate evil.
Here's the @telegraph's most-read article this morning and it's free to read until Monday morning Brexit talks 'will be over in days unless the EU realises Britain is serious about no-deal' https://t.co/ehbcznNp0Q
A sign of cultural decadence, instigated by (((enemies of European culture))).
Stuart Christie
The Daily Telegraph obit. of Stuart Christie, the well-known anarchist, contains passages which draw on his memoirs, which I recall from having read them quite a few years ago, he having been imprisoned in Spain for plotting to kill Franco (he smuggled explosives):
“While inside he was able to buy food, books, magazines and whisky (wine was free), was trained in printing, passed A-levels in Spanish and English and learnt how to cook tortilla. “I had expected to be buried in a subterranean tunnel with water up to my neck, but it was nothing like that,” he told Reuters after his release….” [Daily Telegraph]
So much for “Francoist fascist oppression”! In fact, Franco released Christie after only 3 years of a 20-year sentence, having read a letter of appeal by Christie’s mother. Christie’s original sentence had been death by garotte.
“Indeed, conditions in Franco’s jail compared favourably with life in Brixton Prison where he was held for 18 months after being arrested in 1971, along with the so-called Stoke Newington Eight, on charges of taking part in the Angry Brigade, which had been responsible for a series of small-scale bombing attacks on embassies, ministers’ homes, corporations, even the Miss World competition.” [Daily Telegraph]
“Following what was one of the longest conspiracy trials – 109 days –in the history of the British legal system, Christie, who claimed detonators found in his home had been planted, was the only one to be acquitted by a jury.” [Daily Telegraph]
Having, as I say, read Christie’s memoirs, my assessment of him, as far as I can recall, was that he was a fairly honest person, but very naive both personally and politically; not at all well-educated; a bit of a dimwit, though (if I recall his memoirs accurately) with a fairly high opinion of himself.
Surprising to be reminded that he was only 10 years older than me, not because he has now died, but because when I was 19, in 1976, I occasionally read Black Flag, subtitled The Journal of Revolutionary Anarchism; Christie was the most famous anarchist of the day, yet was only 29. On the other hand, at age 29, Napoleon had already conquered Italy and invaded Egypt!
Things take so long today. Napoleon was already the victor over Italy when aged 26 or so. Most 26-year-olds today, in the UK, are little more than children.
Likewise on the impersonal scale. All the peacetime achievements of the German Reich were both planned and completed within the 6 years 1933-1939. Today, the UK’s disastrously misconceived HS2 vanity rail project has been planned and prepared since 2009, and yet the first trains will not run until around 2030!
I suppose that his name will not be familiar to anyone under 50, but he hit the headlines back in 1985.
One interesting later claim made by Ponting was that, should Britain leave the EU on a “no deal” Brexit basis, Westminster would use emergency powers to dissolve the Scottish Parliament. Is that true? We may soon find out.
More tweets seen
#BREAKING: Nobby the little veteran has sustained a cut his eye during his forceful arrest as he covered the protest in Dover which can be seen in this exclusive footage.
When I still had a Twitter account, I received a couple of rude and unsolicited replies (to a tweet not addressed to him) from the then-MP Eric Joyce, and another, though on a different topic (re. MP expenses generally) from his then-fiancee, “columnist”/book scribbler India Knight. Her tweet was both presumptuous and incorrect.
[As some Daily Mail readers’ comments noted, Joyce was not an officer of the Black Watch (though he was a private soldier in that regiment), but later was commissioned in the Royal Logistics Corps].
As to India Knight, I laugh at her present embarrassment, but feel that it is insufficient punishment. Still, there it is.
Oh, here is the “happy couple”, at an event for dogs:
Unfortunately, neither Jew barrister/scribbler Rupert Myers, nor former hugely-overpaid charity executive and woke-drone, Brendan Cox, both sex pests and sexual assaulters of vulnerable drunken women, were ever prosecuted. I believe that both tweeted against me in the past. Myers certainly did.
Once again, persons who deserve punishment but have escaped.
I don't want to live in a country where extremists like #ExtinctionRebellion are allowed to prevent newspapers being distributed simply because they don't agree with their views.
That is NOT what democracy or free speech look like. It must NEVER be allowed to happen again. https://t.co/yMnCC0Xypq
In fact, “free speech” is now severely restricted in the UK, largely because of the Jewish lobby that Julia Hartley-Brewer supports, or implicitly supports. As for “democracy”, hardy ha ha.
Still, I disapprove of the Extinction Rebellion zealots, overall, and can see that the System and its police are tolerating them for covert reasons, so I repost JHB (who was another one once rude to me and also wrong, on Twitter, in the past) out of duty on this occasion.
Yes. But where were the police? Why didn't they prevent this from happening? Peaceful protest, yes. But XR shouldn't be allowed to blockade printing plants. This can NEVER happen again @pritipatelhttps://t.co/RntiIusBh4

So much for the “peer reviews” so beloved of the mediocre Twitterati…
Oh, and where did this “no platforming” of dissenting views start? In the campaigns by Jew-Zionists to shut down or shout down the opinions of anti-Zionists and social-nationalists. The whole idea of historical revision or inquiry being labelled “holocaust” “denial” etc. Also, people losing jobs, professions, and homes because of Jew “lawfare” (malicious complaints to police, CPS, social media sites etc).
Then there came, in parts of Europe, quasi-mediaeval laws banning what can be said or written about the Second World War, particularly the non-existent “gas chambers” etc. So called “holocaust” “denial” laws.
That tendency then spread to dissenting views about “climate change”, under the label “climate change denial”.
Now we see the same tendency in respect of “Coronavirus”. Anyone doubting any part of the officially-approved narrative, whether of the causes, spread, or treatment of “the virus” (or even things such as the facemask nonsense) is to be censored or banned…
I don't understand this tweet @robotlong.

I think that I can lay claim to having been consistently hostile, for a decade or more, to Boris-idiot, the part-Jew, part-Levantine public entertainer who has now been posing as PM for over a year, and whose jokes are starting to fall very flat.
Likewise, I can also claim that I was able to discern at an early stage that “Boris” was not the strong leader many imagined, but as weak as weak could be, made yet weaker by his complete lack of both ideology and principle. The mob now starts to catch up with me.

The only heartening thing is that many are awakening to how deeply sinister all of this is. Incidentally, in Russian prisons, going back to the time of Stalin at least, prisoners being taken anywhere inside a prison are ordered to face the wall whenever another prisoner is brought along the same corridor.
There it is again: “holocaust”, “global warming”, “climate change”, “Coronavirus pandemic”, “Black Lives Matter” (etc)…”YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO QUESTION THE NARRATIVE”…
It is amazing how many people are clueless as to what is going on with cases in Japan. Still people claiming how they are proof-positive that masks are the key.
Japan's deaths are extremely low. That's because they are a far healthier country than US & much of Europe.
I wonder how many are now looking around the world and working out where they might prefer to be ? Tragic. I love this country and have never wanted to live anywhere else, but I hardly recognise it sometimes 😔
…and few will annoy the plebs by saying the truth: that most of the negative changes in the UK have come about because said plebs are more interested in whether the “England” team (mostly non-whites anyway) has won a football game, cricket match or rugby fixture somewhere on the other side of the world than they are about the shape and structure of their own society, or the composition of their own cities.

“Every city, every town, burn the precinct to the ground” #Antifa black bloc in NYC marched earlier today carrying a banner (on the left) that reads, “Death to America.” Video by @elaadeliahu: pic.twitter.com/4yIELzrWg3
America has not seen anything like this since the days of the Hard Hats, the Yippies, the Black Panthers, and the Weather Underground. Maybe not even then.
The “Alt-Right”
A few years ago, one heard much about the “Alt-Right”. They were the steam powering the Trump campaign, they were rallying in the USA, they were active on social media in the UK. Now? As the Americans say, “crickets”. We just hear crickets, as I did at night as a child in Sydney. The noisy sound of silence.
Look at a few examples: Katie Hopkins is now off the msm, off Twitter, though still on YouTube, Facebook and her own website.
Tommy Robinson has decamped to Spain and is barred from Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube, though still has his own website and is trying to get back on YouTube.
“Prison Planet” Watson is on Twitter (though briefly barred) , YouTube (I think ditto), Facebook.
The other UK “alt-Right” faces, such as Sargon of Akkad (Carl Benjamin), have faded into obscurity.
In the UK, we see that those “alt-Right” faces who merely rant and rave, and have no real political influence, are still online. Paul Joseph Watson, aka “Prison Planet”, poses no threat to the System, despite his million Twitter followers. He has no party, though he did join UKIP (with Benjamin and others) in 2018. When he joined UKIP, that doomed party (which peaked in 2014) acquired, not a million members but…500! A timely reminder of the relationship between a Twitter “following” and a real one…
Oh, and in the real 2019 election, UKIP got less than 23,000 votes across the 44 seats it contested, an average of little more than 500 each. So much for “Prison Planet’s” real-world political influence.
Katie Hopkins had more real influence, which is why the System had her expelled from Twitter. The same is true of Tommy Robinson. He, like the others, is just “controlled opposition”, but his street army of ex-EDL bottlethrowers had at least the potential to become a real street army. It went too far, so the System closed him down.
Note that all the above are professedly pro-Jew, pro-Israel. That did not save them and will not save them, as soon as the game moves on. They are used; they are not, in the end, playing on their own behalf, even if they imagine that they are.
In the end, the “Alt-Right” and similar are just a distraction from real politics. Is there anything good about them from the social-national point of view? I suppose that they do, to a limited extent, partly set the agenda, but only to that limited extent.
Only organizations with a real world presence can survive a System onslaught, if and when it comes. Those making a living from donations etc online only will find no shelter when the wintry winds blow.
I do not regret the demise of the “Alt-Right”. It clears the decks for real action.
I think that that tweet by tweeter “@FreejackFan” is not so far from my own attitude.
What is very noticeable is how many pseudo-socialists on Twitter are supporting (from the safety of their computers) the Extinction Rebellion mob. “An infantile disorder” indeed!
Need I say, at least to regular readers of this blog, how much I hate the “free Press”, more accurately termed either Lugenpresse or Judenpresse? The last two terms are more or less interchangeable.
Extinction Rebellion, like their idol, Greta Nut, have no solutions to the problems they highlight. They seem to believe that industry and modern life can be and should be shut down within about 5 years. They also seem to be saying that, if they can get 3.5% of the population to support them, that they can impose their ideas (such as they may be). Have they considered what might happen if the other 96.5% of the population start to dislike Extinction Rebellion intensely? Walls, squads. You get the picture.
Politicians are firstly voted into office, and are then held to account for their actions by the ballot box; it's called democratic oversight. Where is the democratic oversight for Extinction Rebellion who can seemingly bring entire city centres to a standstill? Who voted for it?
Of course, Judenpresse scribblers such as Dan Hodges are hypocrites. Not one of them stood up for me in 2016 when I was wrongfully disbarred for having tweeted, in the end, five (5) completely true tweets about UK society. Not one stood up for free speech. Not Dan Hodges. Not Julia Hartley-Brewer (whom I think is part-Jew). Not the Jew hypocrite Oliver Kamm (in fact, he told the newspapers, and also tweeted, how much he approved of my disbarment).
As one of the tweeters I have cited in this blog tweeted, Extinction Rebellion is controlled opposition. Look at how the police give it pretty free rein, at least up to the point at which the public notices. Cressida Dick (again); Common Purpose (again).
I didn't see the police doing much about the extinction rebellion protesters today.
— 🇺🇦 Prof Tarquin Thunderpenus, Uni of Facebook (@BillBillBill06) September 5, 2020
Those supporting Extinction Rebellion’s activities today are ideologically pathetic, like the tweeters cited below, even though the msm does often print a pack of lies.
For those outraged at #ExtinctionRebellion's disruption: cries of a free press, freedom of speech & freedom of expression aren't an excuse for the deliberately misleading partisan propaganda: unfounded opinion reported as fact: & outright lies commonplace in many UK daily papers
The Extinction Rebellion mob might be the catalyst, somewhere down the line, for a reaction that will be of a very different kind, and which may well roll its tanks over their “3.5%” (though in fact, in System elections, Extinction Rebellion candidates have never, as far as I know, even garnered 1% of the popular vote, or even a tenth of 1%.
Incidentally, if anyone thinks that I am kindly disposed to the Daily Mail, google “Ian Millard barrister Daily Mail” and see what you find…
As far as I am concerned, if all the scribblers for the Mail and the rest of the Judenpresse lose their jobs, I shall be happy. That, however, does not mean that I support the “XR” idiots. Far from it.
Look at this (below)!
WATCH: ‘Reparationist’ Calls for Creation of ‘Pan-African Superstate’ at Extinction Rebellion Rally https://t.co/whwrVXh4W1 Activists like these are routinely murdered in Africa.
When Africans can establish and run any state, or even make the ones bequeathed to them by Europeans function properly, maybe then they can think about creating a “superstate”!
The tweet below is typical of the muddled thinking common among UK pseudo-socialists today:
The tweeter is of course right, or partly-right in talking about the System newspapers, but seems to think that the revolution that “XR” will never bring about would usher in a new age of rights and freedoms. Who will control the Press then? Assemblies of “comrades”? Ever heard of Kronstadt?
System police getting rough with British demonstrators at Dover, people sick of migration-invasion. Not one robocop went down on one knee. “Is it ‘cos we is not black?”
A pseudo-socialist “XR” supporter yet again. A Jew. “National Policy Officer, RMT union.” Pro-“BLM”, pro-facemask nonsense; and also pro-Israel ? (his Twitter profile does not say).
Extinction Rebellion have been causing havoc, committing criminal damage and blocking emergency services for months and fuck all has been done. They attack the press and all of a sudden @BorisJohnson and @MattHancock are condeming them 🤔
Yes, because the System needs the organs of propaganda in order to impose a quasi-dictatorship on the UK. The newspapers (together with radio, TV and schools) promote the “Coronavirus” fear propaganda, the “Black Lives Matter” propaganda, the “holocaust” propaganda etc.

The Protocols of Zion are not (as Jews always assert) “a forgery” or “Tsarist forgery” but literary fantasy clothing reality and a real agenda pursued by real cabals. One has to ask why the Jewish lobby, in particular, is always so keen to dismiss the Protocols, and ban their sale etc, if they are just a silly forgery which no sensible person could believe…
#OtD 3 Sep 1934 65,000 textile workers in North Carolina joined the strike of workers in Alabama against pay cuts. The strikers used their cars to drive to working mills and spread the strike. Learn more in this history of the dispute: https://t.co/4lTuXls1MOpic.twitter.com/zBt8hl7qSk
No doubt the cause was just, but I had to laugh too: “the strikers used their cars to drive to working mills and spread the strike.” Imagine, say, similarly and indeed far more downtrodden workers in that year in, say, the Soviet Union. No cars for the workers, and any workers brave or foolish enough to attempt a strike certainly arrested by the NKVD and probably shot (some might be “lucky” enough to get 10-20 years in the brutal labour camps run by the GULAG administration).
Slightly off-topic, not many people in the West know that, as late as the 1980s, a black in South Africa had a statistically higher chance of owning a car than a citizen of the Soviet Union. Somehow, the BBC never did explain that to its audience.
Even more off-topic, I was listening to BBC World Service last night, and some on-message drone was referring to “the racist apartheid regime” of South Africa under white rule. In the 1980s that became the invariable BBC way of referring to South Africa. Biased journalists such as John Humphrys.
The idiot on the radio last night then went on to describe the South Africa of those days as “totalitarian“, which is just silly and inaccurate.
“Totalitarian” has always proven a difficult word. Orwell himself got slightly muddled using it in one or two essays and, in the film version of John le Carre’s book, The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, Claire Bloom’s character refers to Dão as “a totalitarian wine” (because Portugal was at the time a semi-“fascist” dictatorship, akin to that of Spain under Franco). Dictatorial yes, “totalitarian”, no.
Brexit

I favoured Leave, and still favour Brexit, in principle, but it has been criminally mishandled by at least two Prime Ministers now, and shows every sign of being what Johnny Mercer MP called “a shitshow“. If he thought that of Theresa May’s term of office and her handling of Brexit, what can he think, secretly (?), of Boris-idiot?
Jessica Krug
Weird story of the day: Jessica Krug, a white woman from Kansas, has been pretending to be Black for her entire professional career, and now she’s apologizing for it:
The only reason Jessica Krug finally admitted to this lie is bec on Aug 26th one very brave very BLACK Latina junior scholar approached two senior Black Latina scholars & trusted them enough to do the research & back her up. Those two scholars made phone calls & reached out to…
A professor whose work focuses on Africa and the African diaspora has said she lied about being black. Jessica Krug admitted she is a white Jewish woman: “I have built my life on a violent anti-Black lie” https://t.co/zDMaS2nJEJ
Well, “white” had better be put to one side. Let’s just say that Jessica Krug (of whom I had never heard until yesterday) is just another Jewish fraud. Not old enough to be a “holocaust” fraud or hoaxer (though plenty get sympathy and/or make money by claiming to be the offspring of “holocaust” “victims” or “survivors”). Google “holocaust frauds” or “holocaust hoaxes”.
Some people just want to be part of something of which they are, in reality, not part. “My father/grandfather/uncle/friend/man I met in a pub/someone or other… liberated Belsen“… There are hundreds on Twitter alone that claim that.
Another example, more niche perhaps, is mentioned by ex-SAS personnel in their memoirs, to the effect that hundreds of people, even ex-soldiers, claim to have taken part in the Iranian Embassy siege assault in 1980. In fact, about 30-35 SAS personnel were there, either assaulting the building or in other roles.
Memory can be faulty over time, even where no fraud or dishonesty is involved. Some of the SAS soldiers who were at that incident have fallen out over who did what. I was thinking back to where I was on that day. It was a warm sunny day, and I was in a pub in Whitehall. I remember (quite mistakenly) being in that pub in the late afternoon when the assault took place. In fact, my memory (often described as far better that that of others) is faulty here, because the SAS assault actually started later, in early evening: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iranian_Embassy_siege#SAS_assault. I also “recall” it being a Sunday (it was a Monday).
This latest hoax or fraud, by Jessica Krug, may not be quite on the “Anne Frank diary” scale, but she was doing OK out of it until exposed. Now she hopes to make more by recounting her (compelled) “confession” on TV etc. She will probably even write a book about it.
Every single time…(you know what I mean…).
In fact, the whole black/white question in the USA is a mass of contradictions. One of the absurd aspects is how a “half-caste” or mixed-race person is always “black”; and so Barack Obama, whose mother is or was a white Northern European by origin (Scottish, German etc) was “America’s first black President”.
Obama made a big thing of it, writing a pretty dull short book about having gone to Kenya in search of his “roots”, but he never did that in respect of his (Scottish or German etc) European roots…Yet, when you think of it, from where came Obama’s cultural landscape, Europe or Africa? It’s not really even a question.
Everything that Obama had came to him from European ideas, jurisprudence, ethics, but through an American prism. Africa contributed nothing, really. What could it contribute?
Trump
Interesting opinion piece. The author is anti-Trump, whereas I myself am both anti-Trump and equally (if not more so) anti-“antifa” and the anti-Trumpers…
I can see the potential for some kind of civil war in the USA, but for a war you need two (or more) organized sides. I say “or more” because sometimes a war even in one region or one country involves several different sides.
One reason why the war in and around Bosnia was so poorly reported on (not only in the USA but the UK) was because there were a number of warring parties even within Bosnia, and reporters and their organizations were unable or unwilling to explain the complexities to perceivedly dim and/or ignorant readers, viewers and listeners in the USA and UK.
So far, the USA has not reached the “civil war” threshold. If it ever did, the stance of the US military machine would not only be important but in every way determinative.

It is not often understood that, in the world of publishing, there was, until the advent of the Internet, a stranglehold over what was published, exercized by publishers, agents etc. Many if not most were (and are) Jews. Now, self-publishing is easier, but the Jewish influence is still pervasive and has been worsening. For example, many well-known works, as well as obscure ones, are now “not available” from Amazon and other outlets (e.g. Abe Books). Why? I think that you can guess (((the reason)))…
I recall giving my (as yet unpublished) work, The End of the Millennium and the New Age of Alexander to a reader at, in American terminology, a very “preppy” literary agency with an office in Fifth Avenue, New York. I recall the personable Ivy League fellow who saw me; Brooks Brothers clothing, and expensive-looking spectacles. I am not sure, though, whether I still have his eventual letter which said, in part (and in rather Anglophile language), “Thank you for letting me have a crack at it. It is the most extraordinary work I have ever read…[but]…it will never be published in New York.” Again, I think that one can guess (((why))).
That was nearly 30 years ago. Were I less lazy, I should have put my book on the Internet, or self-published, but so far have not done either. Perhaps I should. Still, it exists in the Akashic Record, and for me that is the most important thing.

As ever, I suppose that I should point out again that I am neither follower nor fan of Peter Hitchens; he is however one of the few msm scribblers and talking heads to point out the “emperor’s new clothes” emptiness of contemporary politics and society. My assessment of him from a year or so ago: https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/05/19/peter-hitchens-and-his-views/
Amusing snatch from Netflix's series 'The Crown', the episode about the Great London Smog. 'Masks are bloody useless. They're just for show. To make it look like the government is doing something.' Perhaps they'll cut it out in re-runshttps://t.co/AgzzLG4S3Y
The difference being that, in the 1950s, no government would have dared to make facemasks or muzzles compulsory, even in those more “authoritarian” days.
What is it about these American politicians?! Biden thinks that a black invented the light bulb (I suppose that blacks have invented some things…or maybe not). Dan Quayle could not spell “potatoes”, Hillary Clinton said that she had been fired at in Bosnia, while Al Gore “invented the World Wide Web”, which must have surprised Tim Berners-Lee.
Is it because they are American, or because they are what Hitler called “dirty democratic politicians“?
Incidentally, an Englishman, Joseph Swan, invented the light bulb parallel to Thomas Edison. The pair set up a company together in England: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Swan

I was listening to the news on BBC Radio 4 in the early evening. A litany of the absurd. First of all, the news that air travellers from Portugal and parts (!) of Greece who arrive in Scotland and Wales will (suddenly) now have to “self-isolate” for two weeks on arrival, but not if they arrive at an airport in England or Northern Ireland!
So…if an aircraft is going to, say, Manchester, but gets diverted to, say, Glasgow, the passengers, instead of going home, will have to go into quarantine? Or will they just be allowed to go home, but have to “self-isolate” there for two weeks? If that latter is the case, the passengers would go to their homes whether the plane lands at Glasgow or Manchester, but in the one case, they will be prisoners in their own homes for 14 days, but in the other case they will be free to roam!
Johnny Mercer was right to call Theresa May’s administration a “shitshow”, but he says nothing about this ******* circus! Of course, he has a Government job now (junior minister, Defence): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Mercer_(politician). At one time I thought that he must be a rare honest MP, but then all his moneygrubbing came to light. Shameful…
In that same news broadcast, we were told that “local lockdowns” were being lifted in some parts of the Manchester area, but not in Bolton!
Political Kafka.
Also, how does anyone in “authority” (if that term now has any meaning) know that the hapless “self-isolaters” are actually complying? Do police check? Once? Twice?
Dear @HMAMelanieR, not all speech is protected. s127(1) of the UK Communications Act 2003 criminalizes sending by via a public electronic communications network a message that is grossly offensive or is indecent, obscene or menacing.Alison Chabloz was convicted of this in 2018. https://t.co/81k23rtNPk
Indeed. British diplomats are fond of talking about free speech in other countries, while forgetting the constraints that now exist in the UK: Alison Chabloz, persecuted and prosecuted for posting satirical songs about Jews (particularly “holocaust” frauds) online; Jez Turner, imprisoned for making a speech in Whitehall; Ian Millard (me), disbarred at the behest of a pack of Jews for 5 tweets about politicians and events.
One diplomat unlikely to make that mistake is Rowan Laxton [https://www.gov.uk/government/people/rowan-james-laxton–2], who successfully appealed his conviction for shouting about the evils of Jews and Israel. The judge who heard the appeal disbelieved the only prosecution witness, Gideon Falter of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”]. Falter’s testimony has proven contentious in other cases since then.
Laxton was reinstated at the Foreign Office and is now High Commissioner in Cameroon (though note his postings: Cameroon, Somalia etc, not Moscow, Paris, Washington…).
Why is it that only now is the consensus shifting, so that it is generally obvious that Boris Johnson is simply out of his depth as PM? I have been blogging since I started in 2016 about his unfitness for public office,and was tweeting the same for years before that. Those who had known and/or employed Boris-idiot were saying the same or similar, yet the msm has been promoting Johnson for nearly 20 years. He is of course part-Jew, and pro-Israel. I suppose that the answer lies there.
As Israeli Embassy official Shai Masot said, when being secretly filmed, “Boris is good…he is solid on Israel. He’s an idiot…[…of course, but suits the Israel/Jewish agenda]”:
What a shock. People are reconsidering whether a cup of sugar-loaded weak coffee is really worth several pounds out of what, for many, is a pretty low disposable income.
Britain should have joined with the German Reich to rule most of the world. Second-best option: stay out of the conflicts in Europe and not declare war on Germany (81 years ago, on 3 September 1939). Once that disastrous war had started, it should have been halted by honourable armistice after Dunkirk, in mid-1940.

Get the picture? Huge amount of recent testing for “Coronavirus”, huge increase in people found to be infected, but virtually no deaths from it, because most people tested have few if any symptoms, and are in no real danger from it. The same is true of anyone they might infect.
Well, @droneelectronic perhaps all those people who like to sing 'Britons never never never shall be slaves' on one night each September might gird their loins a bit, and actually behave as if they meant it. https://t.co/9vOcDuPGAs
1/2 German Railways (Deutsche Bahn) actually researched whether anyone had caught Covid on their extensive network. “We see remarkably few infections in trains. No infections occurred in persons on board with a stay of less than ten hours….
2/2 '… Not a single contact tracing has been identified in Germany and Austria as having been triggered by an infection on the train journey.'Source https://t.co/tVh4xL7XHC
The RRSB (Rail Safety and Standards Board) actually surveyed the Covid risk on trains. They found there was 1-in-11,000 chance of contracting COVID-19 on trains https://t.co/Lvh8WebWzG
This is true. I thought the original Gina Miller case against the government had merit (tho' the prorogation was overblown) but was struck by the rhetoric of many on the left against Johnson. Yet the same quarters are now silent about a far more significant assault on liberty. https://t.co/UJBWJDCfaT
The most invidious fact of all in that regard is that not only does Britain have a government of dictatorial clowns but also an Opposition consisting of those whose policies are in most respects identical. A non-Opposition.
Oh, much, much worse than that. You cease to be free. And the intimidation and control of the population *become* proper police work. https://t.co/EsIjya6l4e

Something incredible just happened. My doorbell rang and I answered to find an older woman I've never met before. She politely said, "I'm trying to find a place to sleep tonight. My sister used to live here. Can you call her? I might be listed as a missing person."
Click on that to read the whole thread. Not just an amazing story but disturbing. The police, who have recently had so much time to swagger around bullying the public, checking on what people are saying on Twitter and Facebook, simply could not be bothered to make a couple of telephone calls to give a person in need of immediate real help.
Incidentally, I thought (assumed) that the above happened in the UK. Apparently not. Texas. Still noteworthy.
The “holocaust” narrative is the binding thread which has created a false sense of identity and nationhood out of disparate elements.
Prime Minister’s Questions
I heard only the Radio 4 highlights of PMQs. Disastrous for Boris-idiot. Keir Starmer might be in the pocket of the Israel lobby, but in terms of domestic policy he is “mainstream”. For Boris-idiot to accuse a former Director of Public Prosecutions of being a sympathizer or apologist for the IRA (by proxy, because Corbyn was Labour leader for 4 years) is just absurd. Not even Oxford Union level. Eton College debating society, maybe.
Boris Johnson left flailing as his limitations become clear for all to see
Rather than being seen as the man with the winning touch, many Tories are waking up to the fact that the Prime Minister is a liability
Johnson is too far down in the polls to be re-elected. The Tories are beginning to realise that he is bringing them into disrepute – they will be remorseless in showing him the door. He has become a liability to the party. His PMQ's performance was his swan song.THE DirPP an IRA! https://t.co/uuD2ex2Xgr
The problem the British electorate faces at present runs parallel to that pertaining to the USA: a false choice between unworthy candidates.
Having said that, even were Keir Starmer brilliant, he would be no nearer office. On paper, Boris-idiot is there maybe until as late as November 2024.
I predicted after the 2019 General Election that any real or serious opposition to this government would have to come from within the ranks of Conservative MPs themselves, given the 80-seat majority.
I also made the point that there was a false question being asked during the 2019 campaign. Many were writing in the msm, “Boris has the ability to be PM, but does he have the principles?“, to which my answer was “when has Boris proven that he has the ability?“, but answer came there none…
Now the Conservative Party MPs, pro-Conservative newspapers and websites etc are having to wake up to the fact that they have promoted and puffed a total clown as “Prime Minister in Waiting”, in some cases for 20+ years.
Well, they put him there, and there he sits, incapable of doing anything effectively, having shut down the economy and society, listened to idiots like Professor Ferguson (he of the “800,000 Coronavirus deaths” prediction). Soon there will be millions of unemployed wanting solutions.
“Boris” and his record: Economy and society shut down for about 6 months. Ludicrous facemask policy adopted. Absurd local “lockdowns” implemented. Migration invasion worse than ever (over 400 yesterday alone, and that’s only on the beaches; what about all the others?). Unemployment soaring. DWP and HMRC even less efficient. Nothing done to stamp out exploitation by (((predators))) such as Philip Green.
The Chinese characters for “crisis” are said to mean “danger” and “point of change” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_word_for_%22crisis%22]. Appropriate, at this time when the great Chinese nation has emerged to challenge the West for world supremacy.
Was “the virus” a planned release, posed as an “accident”? We may never know for sure. Some may say that such a speculation is a “conspiracy theory”, but if so, it is one supported —or not dismissed at any rate— by some pretty well-informed people.
Sir Richard Dearlove, one-time SIS chief, seems to believe that the virus came from an accident in a named Chinese lab, and was not an accident of and in the natural world and/or a market.
I personally (obviously not an expert in scientific subjects) find it very strange that the outbreak in Wuhan was contained very easily in the end, and there was quite swiftly an end to “lockdowns”, “social distancing” and facemask wearing etc. Only about 3% of the population of Wuhan was infected (some sources say); the official death rate was a tiny fraction of 1%, being around 5,000 people in a city of 11 million (about 1 death for every 2,000 inhabitants); and most parts of China were completely unaffected.
Meanwhile, in Germany, Austria, Italy, fast-spreading outbreaks. Was there a deliberate planting of material there?
Reverting to the main theme, 31 years ago socialism dissolved all over the world. I have blogged about it before. The fact that the Chinese government still pretends to be “Communist” or socialist carries no weight. “Communist” is just the name on the outside of the box.
Neither does the fact that there are a few pitiful failed “socialist” states here and there prove the survival of socialism as a significant ideology rising beyond the level of a small political cult. North Korea, with its bizarre pseudo-socialist “monarchy” (by any other name); Cuba, which without Soviet subsidy has become what one would expect of a Latino dictatorship ruling over an island populated mainly by blacks and those of mixed race. Ramshackle, its roads potholed, its railways scarcely functioning, its capital full of condemned and collapsed buildings.
As I have blogged previously, in the UK whatever existed of socialism or even social-democracy soon dissipated. The Labour Party deleted Clause 4 from its constitution and socialism was dead in Labour as well as everywhere else.
Corbyn’s rise was resistance against the finance-capitalism then riding triumphant despite the 2008 crash. It was, however, unsuccessful. Now we see Labour just a pale copy of Blairism, run by a former prosecuting lawyer who is, like all his Cabinet, completely tied in with the Jewish/Israel lobby.
Social nationalism, in terms of parties and organizations, has rarely been so weak. A consequence of the globalist finance-capital trend since 1989. The BNP started to gain some traction before 2010, but in the end failed, just like Corbynism.
Now we see widespread discontent, but nowhere (in the UK) amounting to even a real hard protest, let alone any kind of “revolution”. Even the recent dictatorial “control” “laws” [invalid, fake, laws] could not raise much of a protest. Maybe 10,000 in Trafalgar Square, listening to speeches.
When the economy really tanks, when neither Government nor (fake) Opposition can offer the then-suffering British people anything, then social-nationalism might have a chance, but only if it has developed by then (meaning 2022) at least the nucleus of a disciplined party organization.
2022 will bring in an era of change across the world. The world between 2022 and 2055 will be as different from the world 1989-2022 as that now is when compared to 1956-1989.

This sounds extremely snobbish, I know, but you need a financial barrier to membership. To sift out the Nazis and hardcore communists on the right and left respectively.
“Dr. Tim” (of whom I have blogged in the past: see https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/) thinks that now-misnamed “Labour” should make it difficult for anyone of modest means to join. He wants Labour Party membership to be restricted to the rather comfortably-off. Says it all about Keir Starmer “Labour” really. No shekels, no membership card?
Actually, I rather like the idea. Destroy Labour and people might start to look for a real alternative to the equally-misnamed “Conservative” Party.
For the last 2 months our mail has not been delivered several days each week by @RoyalMail They found £6 million to pay CEO Rico Back a 'golden hello” plus a 'golden goodbye' when he quit after 2 years. So they could afford extra staff to cover deliveries during staff sickness
Privatisation looting + manual for low-density 'renewables' = powe blackouts. That's what you get for letting ideology & greedy vested interests determine policies on essential utilities.

If (which I doubt, frankly) that report is accurate, then at last Boris-idiot will have done something worthwhile. I support public service broadcasting, in principle, but the BBC is not that, not any more, if it ever was (certainly not after some admittedly indeterminate point in the past; maybe 1980 or so). I now hate the BBC despite it still having a few good things showing (mainly on BBC Four).
We see here how swiftly our new order, based on fear as the justification for huge state power, is wiping out centuries of law and liberty. Australia today, Scotland soon, England not long after. https://t.co/i8MB84XDx9
Leave aside the revolting treatment of the woman involved (if you can), what is happening here is the actual suppression of the freedom to protest ( see also the lawless fining of Piers Corbyn without due process) https://t.co/i8MB84XDx9
There's a weird inversion of conventional opinion, by which the arrest of a pregnant woman, in a formerly free country, for calling for a peaceful protest is seen as normal, while those who are opposed to such things are seen as weirdo conspiracists.
Hitchens is right. All across the world, and perhaps especially in those jurisdictions which for long have considered themselves “societies under law”, with civil rights and reasonable freedoms, there has been a stunning abrogation of liberty, moreover an entirely (from the public health point of view) unnecessary abrogation of rights and liberties. Incidentally, if anyone reading this cannot see the difference between “a society under law” and a mere “society that has laws”, all I can do here is request (for your own sake) that you research that difference.
Also, take a look at Twitter. Most of the pseudo-socialists, “antifa” twits, most of the Jewish element, are applauding the dictatorial measures being employed in Australasia (New Zealand is almost as bad as Australia, though less confrontational).
As I have blogged previously, the ideological unsoundness of the self-described “Left” (I myself avoid the “Left”/”Right” meaninglessness) is shown by their wish to be controlled and ordered about by the State. That is why these people have no political traction. They have no real core belief beyond various “anti” positions.
Such laws @oz_uk are of doubtful validity, and ought to be challenged in the courts. But if police powers can be used against peaceful protest today, they can be used to suppress elections tomorrow. A line has been crossed and you don't care. You will care,but too late. https://t.co/6Xx02mmRzp
Note the stated “position” of tweeter “@Oz_UK”: “socialist“…and pro-Corbyn, and his “avatar” is that of a photograph of the girl I call Greta Nut.
People like that do not change the system, let alone lead or take part in revolutions. Their main aim is to see those with whom they think they disagree hurt in some way, by others or by the State apparat. In the old Soviet Union, they were called Homo Sovieticus…[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homo_Sovieticus].
It is very strange and I am trying hard to explain it. I think the western world has been afraid of liberty for some time, lacking any compass with which to navigate it. To a growing number of people, a more parental state is actually desirable. They don't want to be free. https://t.co/8AQT9GNrJc
WEll, @brian_in_dorset, I think we all finally have your measure now – someone who supports the handcuffing of a pregnant woman in front of her children for calling for a peaceful protest. No free country could make or enforce such a law. https://t.co/NVmqehkWbX

What use is a Royal Navy, a Royal Air Force, a Border Force that cannot stop this invasion of untermenschen by any and all means? Do you say “because the armed services are there to stop Russian invasion“? If so, you are very foolish.
The Russia of today is not the old Soviet Union, and has no ideology that differs much from that of “the West”, beyond a certain nationalistic outlook. The Russians are far less expansionist than the Americans these days. The USA is the brute force behind the New World Order [NWO] expansion in Eurasia.
Russia has neither the means to invade the UK nor any interest in invading the UK but, speaking frankly, I should prefer a Russian invasion to one by these hordes of (mostly) near-savages. At least I should be able to speak the language!
BBC Radio 4 News report on a budget/holiday airline flight where —horrors!— passengers were not wearing facemasks. It was claimed that one couple have already (since yesterday? Perhaps I misheard) both “developed Covid-like symptoms“. Well, I don’t believe the woman talking about having been infected; maybe she and her husband are planning a nice little compensation claim against the airline.
Even leaving all that aside, “mild Covid-like symptoms?” So what do they want? A medal? What does it matter if a few people develop mild symptoms? Yet here we are, with the BBC going mad because one couple out of hundreds of passengers on a plane are showing mild symptoms of “the virus” (which may or may not be “the virus” and could have been picked up anywhere). This has become hysteria on the grand scale.

I have been to Ilford (East London) a few times. The first was when I was a Bar pupil (trainee) nearly 30 years ago and we had a case at Snaresbrook Crown Court where some Arab gypsies had targeted the BHS store in Ilford (now shut down with all the rest: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Home_Stores). The barrister whom I accompanied wanted to see the locus for some reason, so we drove there.
Sometime around 2006-2007 I returned to Ilford, where there was a small County Court which was, a few years later, one of the hundreds of County and Magistrates’ courts closed by reason of the spending cuts of the 2010-2015 David Cameron-Levita government: https://www.ilfordrecorder.co.uk/news/politics/ilford-county-court-to-close-1-753547;
[Ilford County Court, permanently closed 2011-2012]
On my third visit to Ilford (on the same matter as I visited the second time), again I appeared at the small, dark and moribund-looking County Court (one good thing was that, being situate in a side street out of the central area of Ilford, one could park almost opposite the Court, by a small park or cemetery).
I had stayed overnight at a strange “hotel” of sorts, which was actually in a multistorey car park in the central area, and was on the top floor of the same. I may have been lucky, in that a fellow-member of my chambers, a medico-legal expert called Dr. Thomas (an ex-NHS consultant), parked there a few weeks later, also because he was due to appear at Ilford County Court; his car was broken into, his wig, gown and legal books etc all stolen.
I had the opportunity, if such is the bon mot, to explore the area of central Ilford around the hotel, as I searched for a takeaway (I think that I found a Chinese in the end). My impressions of Ilford (and this was about 14 years ago): something like a cross between a downbeat part of New York City, and maybe Calcutta (though I have never been to the latter).
Seems that Ilford is almost a microcosmic example of the rest of urban Britain: migration invasion, scarcely a white face, litter everywhere, and not so long after I was there, closure of shops and even the local County Court.
More Coronavirus madness
One of the “victims” mentioned in the report at top of this blog post was on Sky News, saying how terrible it was that no-one was wearing a facemask or “social distancing” on the plane! How do you “social distance” on a crowded plane? I think that the woman was a totally brainwashed facemask zealot. She and her husband had themselves decided to “self-isolate” even before being “ordered” to do so! So yes, 16 people out of nearly 200 on that plane have “tested positive”. So what? None are or are likely to show any, or any serious, symptoms.
There is a massive scam/fraud being tried on by the System, via the Government and msm. Fear propaganda.

I’ll leave you with this; the extension to the Coronavirus act granting ongoing dictatorial power is up for review in September. Watch how the government ramps up the fear for excuse to push this through, to keep themselves unaccountable to parliament.
As the UK becomes ever-more obviously a “control state”, with an “elected” dictatorship of a government and a compliant or similar “Opposition”, anything is justifiable if it stands up for the reasonable freedom and decent future of the British people.
Hopefully, a GoFundMe appeal will be launched to pay his fine. The bigger question is how to destroy the cabals that are behind the conspiracy to make the population compliant and intimidated.
Yes @miffythegamer sweetie, I tweeted about this piece of Soviet-style pseudo-psychiatry hours ago. It's actually another sign of our slow but definite transformation into a new marshmallow totalitarianism, where dissent is a pathology. https://t.co/WQ9CSNYhOk
Hitchens is right. Look at the proclamations from government, the documents from the “advisers” and sinister backroom types that have leaked, from Common Purpose drones such as Cressida Dick (who actually suggested that non-masked persons should be “shamed”, meaning bullied, in public. What about, inter alia, “exempt” persons? Do they have to explain themselves to aggressive mask zealots and busybodies, begging their permission or leave?).
Look at that “study” from Brazil. Even on its face, it is plainly nonsense. Its methods and bases are obviously biased. A priori flaws etc.
The “study” also seems to conflate mask-wearing, washing hands, and “social distancing”.
I have blogged for months in favour of washing hands frequently, which is almost certainly the only really important way of protecting oneself and those in one’s own social circle.
“Social distancing”, if done reasonably (eg not attending crowded nightclubs, pubs etc) is also sensible. It is for individuals to protect themselves that way, mostly by avoiding crowded and hot places. The whole “keeping 6 feet away from everyone” is not necessary; peripheral.
As for facemasks, they are useless and may be counter-productive. For the State to mandate the wearing of muzzles is quite wrong; dictatorial.
I have already seen many tweets saying (inaccurately, and presumably based on the fact that the “study” has been published in some obscure psychology magazine) that the “study” has been “peer-reviewed” and so (it is implied) credible. The problem with that is that when a “study” is created by people with a certain view, and then “reviewed” favourably —and so published— by people with similar views, objectivity goes out of the window, and the “study” is not worth the paper on which it was written.
To use the reductio ad absurdam, a “study” created by idiots and “peer-reviewed” by idiots is in reality not credible.
We are getting perilously close to equating dissidence with insanity, as in the Soviet Union in the 1960s and 1970s, as exemplified by the notorious Serbsky Institute: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbsky_Center
Brenton Tarrant
I would not wish to kick someone who is well and truly down, but it is worth considering what Tarrant might have done had he not carried out his notorious massacre. He might, for example, have engaged in political educative work, trying to awaken New Zealand to the menace of mass immigration.
More interestingly, Tarrant might also, for example, have planned and carried out the establishment of a mini-ethnostate in New Zealand, perhaps in the South Island, which has only about a million inhabitants (compared to 4 million on the North Island). The South Island has only one medium-size city (Christchurch; 377,000 inhabitants) and only one other of any size (Dunedin; 105,000). About half of the population live in those two cities.
New Zealand has about 5 million inhabitants in an area about 20% larger than the whole of the UK, which has (disastrously) nearly 70 million people now.
The South Island of New Zealand, much larger than the North, is 58,000 square miles (England alone is 50,000) and, as noted, has a million inhabitants, compared to about 56 million in England alone. The population density is only about a 60th of that of England.
Indeed, the third-largest island of New Zealand, Stewart Island, has only about 400 people in 650 sq. miles, i.e. an area of about 20×30 miles.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stewart_Island. It would be easy to simply take over such an island by moving a few hundred supporters there. Tarrant was maybe too much of a “lone wolf” to think like that.
Tarrant’s massacre has resulted in sympathy for the Muslim immigrants to New Zealand. At least, that is the official line.
As far as that tweet is concerned, I agree with Batten 100%. Hitchens is too ready to say “it’s all incompetence by the government and its advisers”. Yes, true enough but too limited. What about those behind the Government, embedded in the Deep State and msm?

Once again, Hitchens is partly-right. However, would you call the Jew Shapps, the part-Jew “Boris”-idiot, the Indian Rishi Sunak, the Indian Priti Patel, Matt Hancock, Gavin Williamson, or the rest, “sons [or daughters] of gentlemen”?! I suggest that Hitchens overvalues the result of a secondary education at Eton or Winchester…
Valete (for today)
Tomorrow, I shall be 64. Let us hope that the year ahead will be productive.
Took a look at the statistics for 2020. So far, tens of thousands of hits from nearly 10,000 individuals. With four full months to go until the end of the year, the number of hits already exceeds the figure for 2019 by about 7%, but the best aspect is that the number of individuals has jumped by 25%. It will be interesting to see the final figures for this year.
The number of “likes” from other WordPress users is also up, but few are ever given (on anyone’s blog) anyway. I had to laugh at the number (as of today) though: 88! True… Is it synchronicity?
Most readers of blogs do not belong to the platform, whether WordPress or other, so the number of “likes” means little. Most blogs get only a few in any given month. Likewise with comments. WordPress blogs are not like social media accounts such as Twitter.
Why does one bother? It is a way of influencing society, even if in a very small way; on the other hand, “one human soul is a big audience“, which I always think was said either by St. Thomas Aquinas or St. Dominic, or maybe even St. Augustine of Hippo, but in fact I have never been able to find the citation.
Who knows who might read my blog and be influenced by it? The next young Alexander? Perhaps a young reader who, after I leave this Earth in my present incarnation, will create the new civilization which I myself, at least so far, have been unable to bring to life and power.
A few “thoughts out of season”
I am 64 years of age in a few days’ time, though I do not —usually!— feel it. Two years until I am 66, in 2022. 2022 can be expressed as a 6 (2+0+2+2), and (by one system of numerology) the number of my name (Ian Robert Millard) is 666, though I should add that I am scarcely a —let alone the—“Beast”!
Like “the stars in their courses“, I “fight on the side of the just” (an ancient Chinese saying).
2022 is the next world-historic year. The last, 33 years before 2022, was 1989, the key year in the collapse of socialism across the world. Socialism did not collapse in one year alone, of course. It had been slowly dying for decades, indeed since the previous year in that 33-year cycle, meaning 1956 (also the year of my own birth).
When I say “socialism” here, I refer to all post-1945 varieties, from the kind of social democratic idea seen in postwar UK, Sweden, New Zealand etc through to the extreme versions seen in the Soviet Union, China, Albania etc. True, China still has and is ruled by the Communist Party, but that party rules over a society completely capitalist. Yes, there are a few unimportant remnants of ruined socialism here and there: Cuba, North Korea, Venezuela (which only became notionally socialist in the 1990s, though there were socialistic elements in Venezuelan society in the 1950s and 1960s). The point is that these countries are exceptions, and poverty-stricken exceptions. The mainstream of the world has moved on from old-style socialism.
After 1989, the Soviet Union ceased to exist as a socialist state, though the Soviet Union continued in name until 1991.
After 1989 and the —superficially— unsuccessful Tiananmen Square protest, “socialism” became a figleaf covering only, just like “aristocracy” has been for a long time in UK society. Deng Xiaoping had said that no-one cared what colour was a cat, so long as it catches mice. That was why socialism had to be superseded, because as an economic model it “does not work”.
Socialism does not work well in the economic sense, but finance-capitalism does not work well socially. Hence the —as yet largely not understood— need for the Threefold Social Order: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_threefolding.
In the UK, the social democratic idea was fully espoused after the Second World War, certainly from 1956, by all three “main parties” (the two real main parties —Conservative and Labour— and the joke Liberal Party). That consensus (“democratic socialist” Labour, in existence in essence since the late 19thC, and “One Nation” Conservatism, also deriving originally from the late 19thC and Disraeli) broke down in the 1980s.
In the 1990s, the “Conservatives” travelled to a more finance-capitalist, anti-Welfare State position. “Labour” dropped “Clause 4” (which notionally committed the party to widespread nationalization —socialization— of the economy). Within a few years, after 1997, Labour had become completely “cosmopolitan finance-capitalist” under Tony Blair and the Jew Mandelson, who declared that he was “intensely relaxed about people getting filthy rich“.
While the Jew Mandelson held secret meetings with Rothschilds and “Russian” Jew oligarchs in Corfu villas and elsewhere, Attlee and Bevan rotated in their graves, and the remaining “socialist” element in Labour seethed, led by the dissident MP, Jeremy Corbyn.
Despite much talk, the “socialist” Labour element under Corbyn and, before that, Ed Miliband, was unable to struggle successfully against the Zeitgeist. The General Elections of 2015, 2017 and 2019 proved that old-style socialism is dead. That despite public disquiet at the weakening and partial dismantling of the “Welfare State”, mainly under the Conservative Party governments since 2010.
In fact, that weakening of the UK “Welfare State”, though intensified after 2010, had started long before, and was in evidence during the Blair-Brown years 1997-2010. For example, the disgraceful ATOS organization was given its first contracts not by the Conservative Party governments (2010, 2015, 2017 and 2019), but by the Labour governments of Tony Blair and Gordon Brown (1997, 2001, 2005, 2007): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atos#Atos_Healthcare.
People in the UK tend to think that policy is made by individual governments, when in fact there has always been a “deep state” element underneath, carried on in secret, or in semi-secrecy. The influence of, inter alia, freemasonry, Common Purpose, the Jew-Zionist element, the Bilderberg element etc are all part of that. Look at Welfare State policy since, say, 1997. There have been differences between and within parties, but the main themes continued beneath the surface chatter.
As we move to the next significant year, 2022, we see that neither old-style socialism/social democracy nor finance-capitalism satisfies the needs of the people.
A new movement is required, both in the sense of a “party” or political organization, and in the sense of a movement in —and of— society.
“For the welfare of the people is the highest law” [Cicero].
Time moves on
I found this graphic from 2018, not seen for quite a while. It was produced by the Jew-Zionist (and misnamed) “Hope Not Hate” crowd. It shows those who met (in my case, once, at a clifftop cafe, because someone thought reliable had asked me) a young Swede whose real name is said to be Patrik Hermansson, and who posed in 2017 as a Swedish student called Erik Hellberg. Personally, I think that “The Rat” suits him better, but that’s just me…
It will be noted that I was placed, as if a denizen of a contemporary “Inferno“, in the circle of the “holocaust” “deniers” [bottom right of the graphic].
I tend to be rather anti-social both in the ordinary meaning and politically. I do not mix much, in fact scarcely at all. For all that, I can see that political life has moved on in the intervening <2 years.
Some people have become more prominent (Alison Chabloz for one), others have retreated from the limelight: Jez Turner, Stead Steadman, Colin Robertson (“Millennial Woes”) etc. The London Forum is inactive. The “alt-Right” in the USA (as far as I can tell —I do not keep up with all that in detail) has developed a sharper edge, it seems.
The graphic does not of course purport to be a comprehensive map of the “nationalist” side of UK/US politics. As for the work of “The Rat”, he was wasting his time. His paymasters at “Hope Not Hate” eventually produced a film, but it sank like a stone. I think (not sure) that it did get a screening on Channel 4 or Channel 5 around midnight one evening, and the same in Belgium and Sweden. I myself cannot recall seeing it.
The most interesting aspect of that graphic is what is not there: “lone wolves” in the UK and elsewhere, German rural-sanctuary nationalists and national socialists, those setting up a mini-ethnostate in the Pacific North West of the USA etc.

In fact, the behaviour of the pseudo-socialists and “antifa” idiots really highlights the sheer bankruptcy of their socio-political position or stance. They beg to be masked, muzzled, controlled, restricted by the State. They have nothing at all to offer in terms of policy or a way forward for society.
You see the same phenomena in the UK, the “anti-racist” and “antifa” types whose life revolves around trolling people on Twitter, saying negative things about those they deem “fascist” or “neo-Nazi” etc. They know nothing, have no real ideology, and put forward no programme of their own. Politically irrelevant.
Berlin. People of the UK: Why do you think they are protesting? What are you waiting for? Get off the bench and get involved. There will be no 2nd chances. We have 1 shot at stopping this new world order & it begins with you binning that stupid face mask & ignoring the “rules”. pic.twitter.com/xtmZ0T4IH0

A modified and female example of the Peter Principle [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_principle], except that she has been appointed to her present position having serially failed in others. Pathetic country, pathetic government.

Hitchens is right as far as he goes, but fails, once again, to point out that Boris-idiot’s most significant characteristics come not from his few years at Eton (or Oxford) but from the fact that he is part-Jew, part-Turk/Levantine, born in New York City, brought up as child in Washington DC, New York and in Brussels. He is at least half-foreign, in short. Of course “Boris” is not really English in attitude, because he is not really English!
I don’t know why doctors are not speaking out about this.
I can believe (sadly) government and management instructions creating this problem but the doctors, GPs through to cancer specialists, should be appalled by this abdication of care responsibility.
Most NHS doctors are saying nothing because, quite simply, just as Aneurin Bevan said that he had overcome the opposition of the BMA and doctors to the establishment of the NHS by “stuffing their mouths with gold” (relatively high salaries and the chance to do private work on the side etc), Boris-idiot and little Matt Hancock have stuffed the mouth of today’s NHS doctors with more gold, via immediate 4.5% pay rises for less work done…
Interesting early use of face-muzzles(at the lawless Guantanamo camp)extraordinarily similar to those now being forceed on populations of formerly free countries. Nobody can so far explain how these can have a *medical* aim. So what is their purpose? https://t.co/qgsnLJ6iJ7
Hitchens may or may not be aware of it, but Americans have always treated their prisoners, especially political prisoners and/or prisoners of war, very badly. Those suspected of being involved in the assassination of Abraham Lincoln were kept muzzled and with hoods over their heads for months in some cases.
The amazing effects of state-sponsored panic. In the UK the public think 6-7% of people have died from coronavirus – around one hundred times the actual death rate https://t.co/6D4vciah9O

Indian “clever boy”, Rishi Sunak, who was briefly touted as a future UK Prime Minister when he started throwing money around to ameliorate the effects of his own government’s policies, established the “eat out to help out” programme. 50% off, up to £10 a head, I believe. Well, I just heard anecdotal evidence:
A lady I know went to a seaside cafe/restaurant one morning recently. Her purchase was modest, a single cup of coffee. When she went to pay (£2.20), she was told that she only had to pay £1.10 because of that scheme. A woman also waiting to pay then chimed in to the effect that her family now dined out three times a week because it made eating out almost as cheap as eating in.
Well, that lady whose family use restaurants three times a week and get a discount for it may enjoy the scheme, but the whole thing is being paid for by the public as a whole; by the poor too, who may not pay much in income tax but who certainly pay VAT and, if employed, National Insurance.
Why should the people as a whole pay to subsidize the cafe visits and restaurant excursions of the rich, the affluent and the comfortably-off? Like so many government policies now, there is just no logic and no justice behind it.

Sweden is an object-lesson: liberalistic tendencies encouraged for decades, initially with, at least arguably, some positive results, but eventually a downward spiral into empty “toleration” of every kind of degeneracy.
Then the Jewish element and influence, already there but muted by reason of the formerly traditional and nationalistic Swedish society, grew. The notorious Barbara Lerner Spectre and (((similar))) arrived, bringing the taint of evil with them.
Finally the combination of Jewish influence and longstanding Swedish liberalism brought about the disastrous equivalent of the “refugees welcome” ideas so prevalent in the UK. Migration-invasion. The untermenschen flooded in from all parts of Africa and Asia. You see the results…(and yes, both the Swedish authorities and the Daily Mail prefer not to notice the immigration aspect of the crime written about above).

I am also told that, 'based on best case scenario for a false positive rate in the PCR test of 0.5%, if 100,000 people in Oxford were tested this weekend, 500 healthy people could test positive and they would all be false. On this basis, Oxford would be shut down.' Absurd. https://t.co/15Doz4kMXR

This Coronavirus panic and madness just gets worse. People who feel and basically are well and healthy, or have minor and temporary symptoms such as a sore throat, are tested, and if positive in more than a few cases, are presented in the msm as “an outbreak” of “the virus”, and a whole city is then shut down! It’s just crazy.
The supposed “government” of this poor country is on a mad ride through the darkening world, shutting down cities, making the compliant (so far compliant…) population wear facemasks or muzzles. Meanwhile, and as a direct result, millions are and millions more will be unemployed, shops and chains of shops are shutting down, not (this time) by government order, but because they are insolvent, again a direct result of misguided and in fact mad policies of Boris-idiot and his clowns in Cabinet.
London and other cities are little better than ghost towns, and until this mad Coronavirus panic ends, will be.
The stupid thing is that no-one or virtually no-one is now dying from “the virus”. The decline in deaths has been steady from early April 2020 to now, when it has reached zero. Nearly 5 months of uninterrupted decline, during all of which time except the past month no-one was wearing facemasks except a few of the mentally unstable.
'Oxford on 'amber alert' after rise in coronavirus cases'… from virtually none to almost none, and *no* information on how many of these are actually ill. And now, as in Leicester they set up a new test centre to find more. https://t.co/ZwkHmRT1cn
The economy of my home town, Oxford, has been devastated by the panic measures imposed by our teenage government. Now, a faltering recovery is threatened by a tiny rise in tiny figures for so-called 'cases' of Covid, when we do not even know if any of them are actually ill.
Yes, that's about it, I think @jimkyle90. And where are the elected councillors, or indeed voices in the Oxford local media, prepared to criticise or examine this? I have seen and heard none. We have all the features of a one-party state, except the name. https://t.co/gsGI7k0XcS
Sadly, the mentally-unstable, who exist (it often seems) in hugely greater numbers than heretofore, have been triggered by the “virus” and subsequent facemask nonsense, and have found a spurious cause upon which to latch, and so be able to express their malice while pretending to be virtuous and altruistic citizens. See, for example, my encounter with a Waitrose cashier (in yesterday’s blog post); or read the tweet by one “@fakevexorian”, below:
Alas, there do seem to be people who genuinely believe this sort of thing @fakevexorian. The government propagandists who have brought this hysteria into being have much on their consciences. Meanwhile I am sorry for you, if you actually mean what you say. https://t.co/6qOXOiv9Tv

David Icke spotted in the crowd. Thanks to a follower for sending me views closer to the speakers.. pic.twitter.com/F0m65MndP7
What David Icke is saying in that brief clip is correct. There is an agenda being pursued, and it encompasses, along with many other things, the “Coronavirus” “laws” (not laws, just secondary legislation created via abuse of law) and “rules” (invalid legally: see preceding point), the governmental reaction and behaviour across the world, not only in the UK, and it may even encompass the “Coronavirus” itself, meaning in the way that it suddenly appeared not only in China but also almost (?) simultaneously in Europe.
As soon as the news media went mad over “the virus”, there was —immediately— a spate of “virus”, “pandemic” sci-fi movies, drama films and documentaries on UK television. Every day. This was surely no co-incidence.
The various oppressive measures such as the facemask nonsense (in the UK only mandated long after the virus itself had peaked and in fact when the traces of the virus were disappearing, along with the seriously affected —few— patients), are all part of a “control” agenda.
Another aspect is the “Black Lives Matter” campaign. I don’t mean the petty if unpleasant manifestations by the blacks themselves and the “antifa” “useful idiots” (American cities burning, British statues toppled). I mean the actions of those with real economic, political, cultural power.
That has all revved up. “Ordinary people” have started to notice that white people are being marginalized in TV ads, soaps, dramas, films etc. That despite the fact that about 87%, officially, of the UK population, is still composed of white (ie Northern European) people (it was 92% in 2001, though, only 19 years ago); even in England it is still maybe 80%: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom#Ethnic_groups;
[proportion of non-whites in the UK]
Yet you can see that almost every TV ad contains “blacks and browns” (etc), as do TV dramas, including those set in the England of the 1960s, 1950s, even 1940s! The aim is obvious: to say to the viewers, many of whom were born after 1970, “look, see, there were always blacks and others here, even in the 1950s, even in small villages in Oxfordshire, Cambridgeshire etc“…
When members of the public call radio talk programmes to complain about all this, they are either laughed at, or put down, or simply not allowed to put forward their concerns.
The same is true of the (((controlled))) newspapers, even the ones that amount to “controlled opposition”, such as the Daily Mail. Many no longer have “readers’ comments” pages; or such pages are “moderated” (politically monitored and censored).
This (above) is all part of the so-called Great Replacement, which amounts to gradual genocide of white and especially white Northern European people in this world. The World Economic Forum [WEF] calls it, quite openly now, the “Great Reset”. The WEF openly welcomes “the virus” as a means to attaining that goal (look at their Twitter output).
Look what happened when the wave of “BLM” protests broke, a few months ago. Immediately, on UK TV (and around the world in the “white countries”), there were ads supporting “Black Lives Matter”. Who paid? Sky, ITV, Channel 4, large companies, transnational companies.
Openly proclaimed by President George Bush snr. in 1991 at the time of the first Gulf War, it was first publicly proclaimed as an ideal by President Woodrow Wilson during the aftermath of the First World War. President Franklin D. Roosevelt also referred to it in 1940, at a time when he was planning to get the USA involved in the war against the German Reich.
You see the way it works, the way in which the NWO needs war in order to advance its wider interests. Not American interests, but NWO interests which are embedded, however, in the USA, in its power structures, in its “Deep State” etc.
We are now looking at the next world war. Maybe only a couple of years away.

Yes, but this was a wholly illegitimate use of delegated legislation, creating powers never envisaged in the 1984 PH Act on which it was based. A decent Parliament, and proper courts, would have thrown it out. Law cannot be made lawlessly. https://t.co/Nylws5XXws
…which is why (as with the “lockdown”), all cases of persons charged with not wearing a facemask, all cases that actually come to court (as far as I know, none, yet…) will fail at court, or fall at appeal level, if anyone is ever actually brought to court on such a charge.
What is happening is that the government of clowns has brought in regulations that are mere secondary legislation, and under primary legislation never intended or drafted to be used for such a purpose. Invalid “law”, in short. Banana republic law. Fake law. Its purpose is to bully the population in conjunction with the scare propaganda about “the virus”.
Why @OxfordLordMayor? HM government itself has said that 'the evdence of the benefit of wearing a face coveringto protect others is weak and the effect is likely to be small' Plus, remember that many are exempt. https://t.co/N3WrY7RkC8

Jews are always very “brave” when in a group, or anonymous. When they are stood up too, though, they quickly change into the perennial Jewish “victim”. Not only in occupied Palesine, but also in occupied UK and elsewhere. Look at the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” criminals. Silverman (now at @ssilvuk) , Applebaum (now under @grubstreetsteve and also —in contravention of Twitter’s terms of service— at @rattus2384); Glasman, others…
They gleefully trolled non-Jews sadistically and frequently, using pseudonyms. They made malicious complaints to Twitter, Facebook, the police etc. When unmasked, and then exposed in open court (in the Alison Chabloz case), suddenly they are whining Jew “victims”, and demanding police protection. Very typical.
Whatever the immediate rights and wrongs, it is clear that the USA is heading towards a civil war situation somewhere down the line: racial, ethnic, demographic generally, socio-economic, cultural, ideological. Not clear cut, but with some red lines here and there.
As The Sun rants about legal aid fees, a reminder that its publisher News Corp thought it reasonable to pay £60m in private fees to defend 5 journalists accused of phone hacking.
The fact is that, while it is not a completely clear-cut situation, you can “buy justice” in the UK, in the sense that having an expensive legal team in a criminal or civil case does make it more likely that your side will win. Not always, but more often than not. In the Rebekah Brooks/Charlie Brooks case, the verdict was almost as clearly bought as if the judge and jury had been bought (which, to be clear, did not happen, though).
To say that Rebekah Brooks and her husband were “lucky” to be acquitted would be an understatement. A stunning success for the defence Counsel and solicitors; apparently, it all cost Murdoch £64M!
Most of these and similar job losses in the UK could have been avoided simply by having no “lockdown” (shutdown), by this government not scaring the population out of their collective skin about a condition that is killing maybe 1 person out of every 2,000 in the UK, by not imposing a toytown police state (eg the facemask nonsense), and so on. This is, largely, a government-caused recession and employment disaster.
“NOT ONE HEALTHY CHILD IN THE UK HAS DIED FROM CORONAVIRUS“
*Now* they tell us that no healthy child has died from Covid in the UK. Front page news in Telegraph, known for ages to sceptics who study actual facts. pic.twitter.com/SQUe8E8Rdu
Slowly, very slowly, the truth emerges: “lockdown” was crazy. The toytown police state was legally invalid and carried out by Britain’s police in excess of their powers even disregarding the invalid “laws” supposedly authorizing those police actions. The facemask nonsense is a complete waste of time as well as being an attempt to control the population.
Almost all people who are healthy are not getting any serious complaints even if infected. Almost all people under 60 are not getting serious complaints even if infected. As testing discovers thousands of “new cases” per day, most show no symptoms; very few show symptoms beyond a sore throat or cough lasting a week or so, the hospital admission numbers are falling to almost zero, and the death rate is now at zero.
1/2 @OxfordLordMayor, it is certain that a 'lockdown' would be damaging, destructive of jobs and livelihoods. Sceptics care just as much about health as you. We don't say Covid is *not* a risk but that the risk is exaggerated & the response (such as 'lockdown') disproportionate. https://t.co/iIGBVHlAUs
That is very disappojting @TommyAtkins6565 . Jomn Cruddas is one of the more indepdnent-minded and thoughtful MPs. But where is the Tam Dalyell of our times? How I miss him. https://t.co/mnRqvv8qzY
Look at Cruddas: too scared in the past to put himself forward seriously as a contender for the Labour leadership. His publications are a mish-mash of semi-Marxism and “Vatican 2” Roman Catholicism. He is a member of Labour Friends of Israel. Despite being a Roman Catholic, he is pro-abortion. Despite making vague anti-mass immigration noises, his contributions have been little more than hand-wringing bleating.
Cruddas lives with his wife [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anna_Healy,_Baroness_Healy_of_Primrose_Hill] (a Labour Party drone now elevated to “baroness”) in Notting Hill; not a crime, but let’s just say that the couple have done “rather well” out of the Labour Party and the taxpayers…oh, and Cruddas was stupid enough to get caught (and convicted for) driving without MOT or insurance in 2012.
An encounter in Waitrose
“An encounter in Waitrose” sounds almost like “bloodshed at the Nell Gwynn Tea Rooms“, as mentioned by Basil Fawlty in Fawlty Towers. Not much of an incident, but it was telling all the same.
I went to pay at Waitrose, wearing my facemask, as mandated by Boris-idiot (without it, I should be unable to get past the dozy Handmaid’s Tale militia who now almost invariably loiter outside). I make sure that my nose is above the mask, both for convenience and to show at least restrained contempt for the facemask nonsense, the Government, and the scared rabbits who take it all terribly seriously.
So I go to pay, and the cashier (one I had not seen before, a fat woman in her forties, wearing a thick mask-muzzle) indicated to me that I should pull up my mask! The sheer presumption of it! Well, I did not want to have the sort of near-violent (if only from me!) altercation with a woman as I had had a few weeks ago with some Chinese student nuisance, so I made a gesture of touching the mask, and waved my hand as if to say “Thank you. Repeat F.O.”
The woman did not give up (a characteristic of the busybody type) and said “it’s to protect me“, to which (if I say so myself) I was too polite to counter with “I’m shopping, not screwing you“.
After that, I packed my shopping, paid, and left.
Instructive, because it proves how deep the fear propaganda has gone. That woman was herself both wearing a mask and largely behind a perspex screen!
It makes one realize that, under other circumstances, such a woman might well herd dissenters into a labour camp, or report to the Stasi. Whatever.
People thought that I was joking or being hyperbolic when saying that this most Jewish of “British” governments would be the most destructive. Now look…
Society, in its essence, is being eroded.
The people are afraid, many of them, of their own shadows, the retail sector based on shopping streets is on its knees, travel and tourism is on its knees (not because of “the virus” but because a stupid UK government keeps adding new countries to lists of those requiring quarantine (ineffective self-quarantine, at that).
Yesterday, a passenger supposedly infected with this virus (that only kills oneperson out of every two thousand persons in the UK) was dragged off a Ryanair flight at Luton or Stansted by a full team of goons wearing biohazard suits and helmets! This country really has gone ****ing mad.
Every day, we hear of large companies getting rid of hundreds, even thousands, of employees. Small shops are shutting by the thousand.
No-one is actually dying of (or even with) “the virus” now in the UK, and hospital admissions are falling daily, yet this government of clowns is keeping on keeping on…Reminiscent of the famous definition of insanity.
The economy is going to fall further. Added to that, we have the inability of this government of clowns to manage Brexit properly.
The next two or three years will present social-nationalism with its best opportunity since the 1930s. There must be a credible organization to lead it. By 2022-2023, the British people will be ready for something new. They will be desperate for something new. The door will lie open before us.

Oi oi… racists of Twitter, it's past your bedtime. As my mum would say: "gwarn ah yuh bed, the grown-ups are talking".
I'll see the rest of you in half an hour for @itvnews at 10.
As a country, Britain is mad to allow its enemies to occupy prominent positions in the msm. Also, according to Wikipedia [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom#Ethnic_groups], “blacks” of all kinds (disregarding those of recent mixed race) add up to only 3% of the population of the UK. Now when you look at TV presenters, are only 3% black? No. The proportion is far far higher. In advertisements on TV? No! Almost a majority! So against whom is the “racism”? And what (((group))) is behind most of all that? Not the blacks themselves, that’s for sure.
Who is ‘writing off lives’ @johnlowe56 The question with any disease ( and several kill more) is what is proportionate in alleviating it. In this case the disastrous measures taken have been ineffectual as well as damaging. They don’t even come close to being proportionate. https://t.co/BFZ7GcaL0o
I see that the LibDems have elected a new leader. Not hard to find one better than Jo Swinson was, even in the LibDems’ restricted gene pool. Ed Davey is part of the old LibLabCon Westminster stitch-up, tied-in with finance-capitalism and political lobbying, but is and is perceived as more solid than crazed lesbian (she prefers “pansexual”) Layla Moran [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2020_Liberal_Democrats_leadership_election]. [Note: some unflattering facts seem to have been expunged from Layla Moran’s Wikipedia entry].
Ed Davey got about two-thirds of the leadership vote.
The scamming of, and later betrayal of, the voters in 2010 led to the debacle of 2015, when the LibDems went from having 57 MPs to having 8. In fact, the high point of LibDemmery in terms of MP numbers was under the egregious drunk, multikulti fanatic and Jewish lobby tool, Charles Kennedy, who increased the LibDem MP contingent from 52 to 62 in 2005.
Charles Kennedy’s predecessor, Paddy Ashdown, was rather liked by the public, I think, despite the farce of the “Paddy Pantsdown” episode. Ashdown, a former Royal Marine and SBS officer, had increased the LibDem bloc of MPs from 20 (1992) to 46 (1997).
Kennedy was replaced by Nick Clegg in 2005, lost his seat in 2015 and finally drank himself to death a few weeks later. Nihil nisi bonum mortuis, but I never liked him. The sort of person who is all in favour of the UK being invaded by black and brown hordes and “I’m all right, Jack” because sitting comfortably in the more affluent parts of London, the suburbs, the country or, in Kennedy’s case, Fort William, in the Highlands of Scotland. I also disliked the fact that Kennedy was so firmly in the pocket of the Jewish lobby. Having said that, Kennedy did oppose the NWO invasion of Iraq in 2003; credit where due.
I think that the LibDem party and also msm commentators have underestimated the sense of betrayal among voters in respect of what happened 2010-2015. It still resonates. It resonates even with me, and I have never been a LibDem member, supporter, or voter! The sheer conscienceless lying cheek of it! The broken LibDem promises, the selling-out of the voters just so that LibDem careerists like Nick Clegg, little Danny Alexander [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Alexander] etc could get ministerial portfolios in the Con Coalition.
Both Jo Swinson and Ed Davey were given government preferment during the Con Coalition, Davey at Cabinet level (Jo Swinson was merely a PUS).
During the Con Coalition of 2010-2015, the Conservative Party leaders played the LibDem leadership like a balalaika. Example: the LibDems withdrew opposition to the Bedroom Tax after being offered a law (now in place) prohibiting free plastic bags in supermarkets.
Now, Clegg is the main European gopher for the Facebook Jew, Zuckerberg, while Alexander now works for something called AIIB [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asian_Infrastructure_Investment_Bank] and lives in Beijing (or, as I stubbornly call it, Peking). Both received knighthoods, for what that is now worth.
What now for the LibDems?
The LibDem representation in the Scottish Parliament has more than halved since 1999 (when that parliament was established). Now only 5 MSPs out of 129, a situation unchanged since 2011. A similar position to the LibDems in the National Assembly for Wales (1 AM out of 40, again unchanged since 2011). The next elections will be in 2021.
In the London Assembly, the LibDems have 1 member out of 25, while in the Lords, they have 89 peers out of (soon) over 800.
At Westminster, the LibDems now have 11 seats out of a potential 650. That is one down from 2017 but four up compared to 2015. The British electoral system is of course bizarre. In 2019, the LibDems got 11.6% of the national vote, but in 2017 had only 7.4% (yet one more MP!).
I have said since 2010 that the LibDems are living on borrowed time. I still think that, though the “cockroach” quality of the LibDems has just managed to keep them in play. There are several reasons for that. First, the LibDem support for the EU. That may not be hugely popular nationally, but is not hugely unpopular either. Then there is the fact that LibDem voters tend to be concentrated in particular constituencies. Most of the “Celtic Fringe” LibDem areas of Scotland, Wales and Cornwall may be lost, probably forever, but there are leafy suburban seats in England that will be forever LibDem…or will they?
LibDem MPs tend to represent, in England, affluent suburban/rural seats: Twickenham, Richmond Park, Bath, St. Albans, Oxford West and Abingdon (Layla Moran), Kingston and Surbiton (Ed Davey), Westmorland. The other four are in Scottish seats, all but one rural and rather remote.
The 2019 LibDem vote-share of 11.6% was below that of UKIP in 2015 (when UKIP, with 12.6%, got only 1 MP elected). The difference lies in the Schwerpunkt or concentration of forces in those particular constituencies. Several are marginal seats. UKIP failed in 2015 because its 12.6% was only half of what would have been required to win at least some seats. Had UKIP got a national vote of 25% in 2015, it would have got, undoubtedly, 30% or 40% in a few seats and so won those seats. 12.6% is not enough; neither is 11.6%, but though the LibDems get 2%, 5%, 7% in most seats, they achieve higher votes in the favoured few constituencies. For example, Ed Davey’s vote in 2019 was over 51%; Layla Moran’s was over 53%.
One unexpected (to me) fact is that the actual membership of the LibDems is now around 120,000, its highest ever as “Liberal Democrat Party”, though the old Liberal Party had a membership, albeit very long ago (pre-WW1), in the hundreds of thousands, as well as hundreds of MPs, peaking in 1906 with 398 MPs out of 670.
Membership is a secondary factor. Labour had nearly 600,000 members last year (2019) when it lost to the Conservative Party, which had only 140,000. The Labour pressure group, Momentum, has about 40,000; UKIP still has 26,000 (supposedly), despite being a “dead parrot”.
The LibDems will probably limp on, eventually to die “not with a bang but a whimper” in the words of Nevile Shute in On the Beach.
In a binary system, the in-out of the two parties contending tends to alternate,on the national level. The LibDems have MPs because, in their now-few core areas of the country, the LibDems are the alternative to the Conservatives. However, the Con Coalition of 2010-2015 destroyed the (if never credible to me personally) LibDem trump cards, supposed integrity, honesty, idealism etc. I really do not think that the LibDems can climb out of the hole, but they may just gently decline to a few MPs before actually expiring.
He has now (again) tweeted about me. In fact, he (or someone using his name, and an email account obviously set up for the purpose) sent my blog a silly and hostile message fairly recently. I suppose that it might have been someone else using his name, but the message was tracked to an ISP number in the Stuttgart area (Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany), which is where Stuchbery now lives.
Obviously, I did not approve (what I take to be) his comment for publication, but the details are still on file. I do not threaten people. Not threaten.
When I started blogging, nearly 4 years ago, I thought that I would almost inevitably get hostile messages, but in fact have so far only had about half a dozen or so, over the 4 years. I suppose that most people who might send such messages cannot be bothered to set up email accounts just for that purpose, when all that happens is that the messages are seen only by me, not my readers; also, the senders are usually blocked.
Alternatively, maybe most people who read my blog posts enjoy them, support what I say, support me. Now there’s a thought…
Stuchbery’s outbursts today:
Ian R Millard writes a blog in which he openly praises the Nazi regime, engages in anti-Semitic falsehoods and defames anyone who critiques his Far Right idols. pic.twitter.com/PWdoYEmfYf
I suppose that I should thank Stuchbery for publicizing my blog. After all, I myself cannot do so via Twitter; the Jew-Zionist lobby had me expelled in 2018, and I am not on the other well-known platforms (Facebook, Telegram, YouTube etc).
I noticed that a few people replied to Stuchbery’s post(s). Here’s one:
The tweeter @RedFiddler is an Australian, a Ph.D.-holder using the actual title “Dr”…I have blogged before about this quite recent affectation (recent in the Anglophone countries; it is more accepted in, particularly, Germanophone lands, where at one time not many people had higher degrees), though I suppose that it is just about possible that the tweeter is in an academic teaching post.
Reverting to the main topic, you see the problem. These people hate Europeans and European culture to such an extent that they actually question whether European race and culture even exists! If anyone said the like about, say, African race and culture, or Chinese race and culture, the mob would either laugh or, more likely, lay down the “racist!” card immediately. Sick world.

HS2 has taken down giant Oak trees, hundreds of years old. In September, it will destroy another 20 ancient woodlands. All for a bloody train. Tories have no respect for environment or wildlife. I've yet to speak to anyone who thinks it's a good project – other than johnson & co.
This appalling government is totally beyond the pale. Migration-invasion continuing, no serious attempt to make Brexit work, ridiculous impositions such as the facemask nonsense, HS2 continuing…it just goes on. It is a “government of clowns”; there again, clowns are or can be rather sinister.

Well, there it is. Owen Jones, the standard-bearer for the fake or pseudo-socialists completely in the pocket of the Jew-Zionist lobby, wants to censor and ban free speech. Quelle surprise…Here is my assessment of Jones, written 18 months or so ago: https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/01/04/a-brief-word-about-owen-jones/
Yes, @alastairmcgowan, I've boiled it down. It's an argumnent for the smearing of dissenters, the intolerance of dissent and for questions to be decided by majorities rather than by hard experiment. Entirely against the spirit of true science, in short. https://t.co/0AAihG7HS2
Thank you @simonmccallion. Yes, Donne's obvious intelligence and humanity, and his unquestionably beautiful use of language, are a perpetual challenge to secularist reductionist bores who think that all religious believers must be thick and illiterate. https://t.co/8JD7Sq00qs
BBC Radio 4 News at 1900 hrs (paraphased): “there has been a big increase in persons testing positive for Coronavirus. However, hospital admissions in respect of the virus continue to fall.” No mention at all of deaths from (or with) “the virus”. Because there are none now, or virtually none.
How long do you think that it will be before the BBC and the Government (and the pathetic scared rabbits all wearing their facemask muzzles) put two and two together? Perhaps they need a famous TV face to say to them: “yes, many many people are still getting Coronavirus. Few have symptoms. A few have sore throats etc. Almost none need any medical attention, let alone hospital admission. None are dying.”
Followed by “Citizens! It is safe to walk, talk, shop, drink and even return to work or school. Burn your facemasks!” (well, one can dream, but a proclamation like that would be too honest).
