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

Can it be possible that Sadiq Khan will not be re-elected, after the sainted opinion polls had him, only last week, on twice the expected vote of Susan Hall? Interesting. The result is expected some time today.
The personal attacks and snobbery Susan Hall received from the political class (including her own party) has been absolutely disgusting. The same people preaching about 'diversity' doing everything they can to put people who aren't like them off politics. #LondonMayorElections
I have not taken much interest in the contest. Susan Hall did not seem a very impressive candidate to me, but then look at Shaun Bailey, the West Indian Con Party “activist” and fake charity “grifter”, who was almost a joke candidate last time, yet very nearly won: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_London_mayoral_election.
Indeed, look at Sadiq Khan himself. Plainly not up to the job.
Whatever your feelings about it, the Britain of our childhood is just a memory, never to return, thanks to uncontrolled and unfettered immigration. Immigration which the public have never been asked if they want, and which increases every year against the majority will.

Britain 2024— roads full of holes and poor surfacing, patched slightly here and there. A million unwanted immigrants a year flooding in. Living standards being slashed. Poor pay for most workers, and another round of attacks on the unemployed, disabled and sick. Almost nothing in the administrative realm working properly. Free speech under unprecedented attack by the Jew-Zionist/pro-Israel lobby, with Government connivance. The NHS sinking ever-deeper into a situation where, in some areas, it is scarcely a health service at all.
Meanwhile the misgovernment of the little Indian money-juggler posing as a Prime Minister sends arms and ammunition to the dictatorship of the Jewish tyrant in Kiev, and entangles the UK in the wars of the Middle East and Eastern Europe.
What price “democracy”? Get rid of Sunak and his Cabinet of clowns, and the only result is that a pseudo-Labour “elected” dictatorship under Israel puppet will carry on in a similar way; maybe worse. Freedom of expression will be destroyed even more, Israel and the Jewish lobby will be supported even more, and the Kiev regime will be propped up even more.
In effect, the UK will swap a Conservative Friends of Israel misgovernment for a Labour Friends of Israel cabal misgovernment.
By all means clear out Conservative Party MPs. They deserve it. Vote elsewhere, or at least do not vote Conservative, but do not imagine that anything will change for the better under Labour.

It could take 14 years to clear debris in Gaza

“It could take 14 years to clear debris in Gaza Israel’s military campaign against Gaza has reduced much of the narrow, coastal territory of 2.3 million people to a wasteland with most civilians homeless, hungry and at risk of disease. Pehr Lodhammar, senior officer at the United Nations Mine Action Service (UNMAS), told a briefing in Geneva that the war had left an estimated 37 million tonnes of debris in the widely urbanised, densely populated territory.“
cf. the Teufelsberg, or Devil’s Mountain, a hill in the former West Berlin, nearly 300 feet above the surrounding land, and created entirely from rubble brought from the devastated city several years after the end of the Second World War.
From what one sees of Berlin today on TV etc, I find that I have no wish to visit the city. It might have been interesting to see, in the pre-1989 period, the contrast between East Berlin and West Berlin, but I never did, though I did see the southern part of the DDR (East Germany) in 1988, and I have seen (both pre-1989 and more recently) what was West Germany. I have blogged previously about my impressions.
Berlin has other, smaller, hills of that type. Some other German cities also have a Schuttberg or “debris mountain”, the larger ones calledTrümmerberge (“rubble mountains”), though most are considerably smaller than the Teufelsberg: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schuttberg; they have been landscaped, “greened”, and are mostly not unaesthetic now.
“The Home Office considered appointing campaigner against antisemitism Gideon Falter as an adviser to its counter extremism unit but was warned against the appointment by the government’s antisemitism tsar.
The Guardian understands there were strong objections to Falter being offered the part-time civil service role advising the Commission for Countering Extremism (CCE) in 2022 and that John Mann told the then home secretary Suella Braverman he would quit if Falter was offered the post.
Falter told the Guardian: “These claims show a lack of understanding of how the Jewish community works. CAA works closely with CST, Shomrim [a volunteer-led security group that works with the strictly Orthodox Jewish community] and numerous other organisations.
“As part of our work we make complaints against antisemites in all walks of life…”
It is disgusting that this horrible little individual was ever considered for an official role. A liar and, some say, a perjurer, just like a couple of his self-publicizing colleagues.
Incidentally, I believe that the present Commissioner for Countering Extremism is Jewish.
As for Suella Braverman, thank God her time in the political limelight is probably over. A low-level barrister unaccountably selected/”elected” to the Commons and then, even less plausibly, appointed to Cabinet. She is what the Indians in her mother’s native Mauritius call —I have heard them say it— “bas-class“. Married to a Jew, and completely in the pocket of the Jewish/Zionist lobby and Israel.
Suella Braverman’s seat at Fareham is considered “safe”, but when the Conservative MP numbers are cut down at the General Election this year, Suella Braverman will just be one of about (?) 50 Conservative Party MPs left. No influence, and no political future except as a backbencher of a party which might even fail to become the official Opposition. I doubt that she will become the leader of that now very degraded party.
God knows what group-karma is eventually going to come down the tracks at Israel, the Israelis, and all those outside Israel who support the quasi-genocide.

The idea that 500,000-1,000,000+ immigrants coming into the UK (mostly not via “small boats”) annually is in any way sustainable is just mad. This government has hugely increased immigration (hardly surprising…look at the Cabinet, composed largely of non-Europeans), and the Labour Friends of Israel government of Starmer, expected to start this year or early next year, will be even worse.
People look at their living standards plummeting, goods costing more, transport services, roads, NHS, schools etc getting worse, housing becoming totally unaffordable, but (in the case of many people) prefer to ignore the links between all of that and the tsunami of immigration.
The United States realizes that Russia could achieve new tactical successes in Ukraine in the coming weeks.

If so, most of them will abandon Poland and move to other parts of the EU— Germany, Denmark etc. Only a few will make it easy for the Kiev regime to press-gang them and deploy them to the crumbling front-line. That would be a death sentence for many.

“Biden’s team doubts US aid will help Ukraine win – Politico.
The immediate goal is to stop Ukrainian losses and help Ukraine regain momentum and turn the tide on the battlefield.” After that, the goal is to help Ukraine start getting its territory back,” said one of the officials. “Will they have what it takes to win?” Ultimately, yes. But that’s no guarantee that they will. Military operations are much more complicated than that.“
That report about American “analysis” leaves out several important factors which make any large-scale success by the forces of the Kiev regime very unlikely.
The first is the lack of “boots on the ground”, i.e. numbers of soldiers, particularly well-trained soldiers. 500,000 Ukrainian troops have been killed in the past 2 years, it is said; even if that figure includes the badly-wounded, nothing material is altered.
Ukrainians of all ages and conditions are trying to avoid call-up, as the regime drafts people as old as 65, disabled people, carers for sick and disabled family members, some women etc. Those who live beyond Ukrainian borders (perhaps a quarter of the pre-war population) show no sign of wanting to return and rally to the colours; those within the borders try to buy or acquire medical exemptions, or just try to stay “under the radar”.
So overall, the lack of manpower is key. There is no way for the regime in Kiev to increase the supply of men, while the attrition of the war means that every day brings new losses; Russian forces, at present, fire 10 artillery shells for every 1 coming from the other side.
The low birth-rate in Ukraine (one of the lowest in the world) also impacts this. The Kiev-regime side looks to ever-lower age-groups, even to those aged 16, to perform military tasks.
Realistically, no matter how many advanced weapons are gifted to the Kiev regime by the USA and UK etc, Zelensky’s forces will never be able to “regain” those former Ukrainian provinces now under Russian rule: Lugansk, Donetsk, and of course the Russian peninsula of Crimea.
Even less likely is the prospect of the Kiev-regime forces actually taking over undisputably-Russian border areas, or destroying major Russian towns or cities. Should the first happen (which is not even a war aim of the Kiev-regime side), there would be a swift Russian response and re-occupation. Russia, with its famous prostor (apparently endless space) simply cannot be conquered by merely military means, as indeed Professor Haushofer taught. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_Haushofer.
As to possible destruction of large Russian urban centres such as Moscow: even had the Kiev regime side the means, all that would then happen would be the deployment of Russian tactical or even strategic nuclear weapons, particularly to reduce Kiev itself. Were Kiev to be destroyed, the war would end immediately.
It can thus be seen that there are only two possible outcomes (unless is posited a general regional or even world war): either Russia achieves victory over Eastern Ukraine by force of arms, or there are real peace talks soon, leading to a result somewhere between such a victory and the present state of play.
Israel
Israeli soldier who witnessed a Palestinian being executed tells Ch4 the army's working assumption is that everyone in Gaza – men, women and children – is Hamas. Palestinians 'need to prove they're not the enemy'. https://t.co/weocNjWl7U
Sooner or later, whether in 5 years, 10 years or whenever, the wheel will turn, and the Israeli population will probably be scurrying through devastated streets, the streets of Tel Aviv and elsewhere. Will the Jews of Israel and beyond then themselves expect or ask for mercy?
Not as unlikely as it seems. Israel’s regional enemies become more powerful every day. Who, a decade or two decades ago, or 50 years ago, would have thought that the Palestinian resistance to the north of Israel/occupied Palestine would have the military power, or the missiles, that it has in 2024? With every passing day, the enemies of Israel acquire more powerful weapons. How long before they have weapons that can overcome the Israeli defences?
The Israeli high command (both military and security/intelligence) seems to be playing a delaying game, trying to prevent major actors from acquiring the most powerful weapons while, when possible, destabilizing surrounding (and some other) states. Iraq, Lebanon, Syria Libya, Egypt have all been weakened. Iran still stands.
There is also the fact that the Arab Palestinians within Israeli borders, and in the West Bank and Gaza, have a higher birth-rate than do most of the Israeli Jews. This will surely have an effect somewhere down the line.
Israel is doomed; the only uncertain fact is the date of that doom.
In the recent Israel-Iran exchange, it was noteworthy that planes and rockets from Saudi Arabia and Jordan flew in defence of Israel. I take that to be an Arab response to the increasing power of Iran, rather than a wish to help Israel as such.
In the 1960s and 1970s, the opposite was the case: the Shah’s government was on quite amicable terms with Israel, unlike all of the Arab states, which then were implacably opposed to Israel. The underlying hostility between the Arabs and the “Persians”, however, was just the same, in essence.

That Jewish Israeli politician seems to be the personification of utter stupidity allied to complete dishonesty. Says that executed/murdered Gazans with hands tied behind their backs may have died in “gun battles” or “throwing grenades“.
She also says that the Gazan resistance are “cowards“, because they (to use the old British phrase) “shoot and scoot” rather than waiting to be mown down by tanks etc. What, I wonder, does that creature say about Jewish (Israeli) pilots and drone operatives who kill women and children from 10,000 feet in the air, or even while sitting in a building in Israel?
It is a disgrace that the suborned UK government is giving aid and comfort (and arms) to that tribe.
Good grief! Just saw this: that creature, of Moroccan and Portuguese Sephardic-Jewish origins, was born in London, became a barrister (Middle Temple) and only moved to Israel in 2001, at the age of 27 or 28: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fleur_Hassan-Nahoum.

Incredibly (listening to that interview), she is apparently regarded as “liberal” in Israel!

Perhaps Russia should create a special class of passports for suitable candidates from certain other countries too: EU nationals, UK and US nationals, some others, and those people could then become dual-passport-holders, with the right of residence, under conditions, in the Russian Federation.
Well worth reading. For me, Wikipedia is an invaluable resource, but there is no doubt that parts have been rendered both less accurate and (therefore) less useful because of tendentious “editing” by, especially, the Jew-Zionist element. Knowledge areas such as Second World War and 1930s political history, social-national groups’ histories, certain “theories”, or phenomena, such as the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan etc.

Mass immigration, migration-invasion, and the Rwanda plan
NEW POST. Why we need Rwanda. Shocking new statistics on the sheer scale of Britain's illegal migration crisishttps://t.co/R0ciMBTXGh
"Britain's asylum system is dangerously broken. It puts the welfare of sex offenders, terrorists and acid attackers above the welfare of innocent civilians and even genuine refugees. The Rwanda scheme will do nothing to fix these fundamental problems."
The problem is that, mainly as a down-the-line consequence of the disastrous, catastrophic Second World War and the way it ended (with the European empires unable or unwilling to continue to rule vast tracts of Africa —both sub-Saharan and North Africa—, Asia and elsewhere), the world fell, after 1945, into a downward spiral consisting of overpopulation, wars, civil wars, shambolic and corrupt native rule, environmental degradation etc.
This became Europe’s problem when the instability of much of the Middle East and South Asia, as well as Afghanistan and much of black Africa, sent millions and tens of millions of both “bogus” and “genuine” refugees westward and northward to Europe. Africa’s northern barriers— Libya, Tunisia and Morocco— were penetrated, the fall of Gaddafi being key.
At the same time, Africa and parts of South Asia (notably, Pakistan) and the Middle East were experiencing a population explosion (by births) not mirrored anywhere else.
The UK, for example, has suffered a huge population increase in the past 20-30 years, but almost all of that has been via immigration, and births to recent immigrants, not births to native white British people or even to those non-whites who entered the country decades ago.
It is largely a waste of time, effort and money trying to separate “genuine” from “bogus” refugees (economic migrants etc). The two groups are very similar in type or in most respects, and pose similar problems.
The fact is that the world is in such a state, and now has so many possibilities of long-distance travel, that in principle, on the basis of the post-WW2 legal framework, literally hundreds of millions (800M is a figure often quoted) could make their way to Europe, including the UK (for many a preferred destination).
Those vast hordes could all, or almost all, make a legally-arguable case to be considered as “genuine refugees”, a fact confirmed by the proportion presently allowed to stay in the UK once having set foot on British shores and after assessment— 80%.
Of course, few of the remaining 20% are deported either.
Most immigrants to the UK are not “asylum-seekers” and/or purported “refugees” anyway, but are “lawful migrants”, i.e. “students”, “family members”, supposed spouses or “fiancees”, “highly skilled workers” (Indians who can work a computer) and so on.
Let us take that 800 million figure as correct (it may even be an underestimate). Even if only 10% were to come to the UK (and it could be 90%), that would mean a doubling and more of the population; moreover, an influx of “refugees” most of whom would be unable even to speak basic English, few of whom have any marketable skills, and many of whom are actively hostile to white European culture and civilization, despite wanting to live in Europe.
UK society is under stress and strain already from mass immigration. It could not take 80M more immigrants, or even 8M more, without descending into either chaos or socio-political upheaval. At present, the overall immigrant influx (not just supposed “refugees”) numbers about a million a year; supposedly “only” about 700,000-800,000 “net” because there are a couple of hundred thousand leavers every year, but most of those leaving are real white Brits emigrating to what they think might be a better life, or a better retirement, in Australasia, Canada, or European countries such as France and Spain.
Very few of the ~1M immigrants each year are of any use to the UK. A few are, true, though mostly in unskilled or partly-skilled occupations that could be done either by Brits or, soon, by AI, robots etc.
The best that can be hoped for is that the bulk of those entering the UK every year are merely neutral or parasitic, rather than actively hostile and/or criminal.
The whole question of immigration is not some side-issue. It affects the income, life-chances, living standards, food, water, shelter and safety of every single person in the UK.
10 years from now, there might be as many as 10M more people in the UK by reason of immigration. A population of the size of a city such as London, albeit spread over the UK, and populated by alien hordes the majority of which will be, at best, parasitic. Is that possible, or sustainable? No.
As to the present UK government policy of deportation to Rwanda, I have several problems with it, the first of which is around numbers.
It seems that, if it becomes operational, the Rwanda flights will carry, at most, a few hundred failed “asylum-seekers” per week. In a situation where even the “small boat” invasion across the Channel amounts to several thousand per week, the Rwanda flights will only deal with about 10% of the “small boats” invasion problem. The Rwanda policy does not even touch the larger migration-invasion, the “legal” (lawful) sort. The “small boats” are, at most 20%, probably 10%, of the entire problem.
That is on the basis that the Rwanda flights will start, that they will continue, and that they will carry more than a handful of deportees.
Another question arising is the capacity of Rwanda, a small country (somewhat larger than Wales, but with 4x the population), to absorb deportees on a large scale, most of whom will not even be from Africa, or that part of Africa.
Rwanda was the scene of the Hutu-Tutsi genocide of 1994; it has a history of ethnic tension.
What happens, in such a country, one of 14M people, densely packed (the most densely-populated on mainland Africa, and the fifth most densely-packed in the world excepting city-states, small islands etc, at over 1,400 persons per square mile— the UK is about 722 per sq. mile, England about 1,100 p.s.m.) when thousands, tens of thousands of foreign deportees arrive? At some point, there may be a local backlash.
What happens if the Rwanda government changes, or changes policy? Are their words, or treaties, reliable? Have they ever been, in Africa or indeed anywhere?
In any case, the Rwanda plan will apply only to (some) deportees from the small percentage called “illegal” migrants; the vast majority of migrants to the UK are notionally “legal” or lawful, so will not be subject to deportation at all.
The Rwanda plan is little more than a public relations exercise in an election year. Cosmetic only. Even if “successful” (operational), it will deal with only, perhaps, 1% of the overall mass immigration problem.
Matt Goodwin (see tweet and blog article above) sees the Rwanda plan as at least being a statement of intent, but it is doubtful whether it can be scaled-up, expanded to other countries in Africa or elsewhere.
The main question remains: how to stop over a million non-Europeans entering the UK alone each year? How to reduce the proportion of non-Europeans in the UK (and in Europe as a whole), and how to, eventually, create an ethnostate with the idea of laying the ground for a much later “super-people”?

Every word and expression from Penny Mordaunt needs to seen in the context of a leadership challenge. Imo she's the most likely victor, notwithstanding the fact she has persistently proved she is utterly clueless. And quite mad.
That is somewhere around my own view of Penny Mordaunt. Her trump card, amid all the Jews and non-whites in the Conservative Party MP ranks, is that she is actually English. I cannot see much else to commend her as a potential Prime Minister, though there is nothing too damaging against her either.
In fact, though, if it turns out that the Conservative Party is reduced to about 50 MPs this year or by early 2025, it will not much matter whether she becomes leader of that little band or not.
In any case, her seat at Portsmouth North is a “bellwether”, i.e. usually votes the same way as the winning side in general elections (in the case of Portsmouth North, since 1966), so Ms. Mordaunt is quite likely to lose her seat in 2024/2025, though her high profile may enable her to avoid that fate. In 2019, her vote-share was 61.4%; the Labour vote a mere 27%. Labour has not exceeded 40% there since its win in 2005.
“Russian troops have reportedly pushed through Ukrainian lines to take the strategic town of Ocheretyne in Donetsk – the latest scoop for Vladimir Putin‘s forces amid a recent string of gains on the battlefield.
Videos shared on the Telegram messaging app by Russian military bloggers appeared to show the Russian tricolour flying atop a damaged building in the town that once was home to 30,000 Ukrainians.
The town was lost after Ukrainian units fled their positions under heavy fire, Msocow’s defence ministry claimed, as a Ukrainian army spokesperson said the invaders were ‘using the entire arsenal of weapons available… including chemical poisons,’ in their assault.
The capture of Ocheretyne, a local rail hub, is a key milestone on the way to the city of Pokrovsk some 20 miles further west – an intersection of important roads and a railway junction that forms the linchpin of Ukraine’s military operations in the region.
Elsewhere, Russian divisions are pummelling towns on the outskirts of Chasiv Yar, a strategically important hill town that would allow them to move toward Sloviansk and Kramatorsk, key cities Ukraine controls in the eastern region of Donetsk.
And missiles and drones continue to batter energy infrastructure and residential areas in Ukraine‘s second-largest city, Kharkiv, which is only about 20 miles from the Russian border.
Moscow‘s soldiers are pushing forward at several points along the 600-mile front – perhaps to maximise their gains over their depleted and war weary adversaries before new supplies of Western munitions arrive.“
[Daily Mail]
As I have predicted on the blog, there will probably be a stunning Russian advance across all of Eastern Ukraine in 2024-2025. It might even end the war, either by collapse of the Zelensky dictatorship or by a Russian victory (defined as quasi-permanent occupation of all of Eastern Ukraine and the coasts of the Black Sea and Sea of Azov).
Western arms and ammunition may delay that Russian victory, but the Kiev regime is running out of soldiers.

Well, this week I merely equalled John Rentoul’s 5/10. I knew the answers to questions 1, 3, 7, 8, and 9. I was unsure about questions 4, 5, 6, and 10, and had no idea at all about question 2.
“A fellow at the University of Cambridge who has sparked backlash with his comments on race has been dropped by Emmanuel College where he was a research associate.
Nathan Cofnas, an early career research fellow in the Faculty of Philosophy, is understood to have had his relationship with the college ended following an investigation into his conduct.
Mr Cofnas came under fire in February after he published a blog post which claimed the number of black professors at Harvard would ‘approach zero’ in a meritocracy, and that ‘Blacks would disappear from almost all high-profile positions outside of sports and entertainment.’
He also dismissed equality between people of different ethnicities as a ‘thesis’ that is ‘based on lies’.
Mr Cofnas, who describes himself as a ‘race-realist’, is understood to have been informed of the college’s decision by letter on April 5, which stated his posts were in violation of its diversity and inclusion policies.
Last month, the first black man to ever be appointed to the head of a Cambridge College, Lord Simon Woolley, principal of Homerton College, held an event with students and the master of Emmanuel Doug Chalmers to discuss their concerns.
Lord Woolley, who was previously appointed by then-Prime Minister Theresa May to head the UK Government’s Race Disparity Unit, told the assembled students that free speech must be protected, but this did not extend to ‘abhorrent racism’.
Emmanuel’s Master Mr Chalmers had initially backed Mr Cofnas’ right to freedom of speech, but the college soon launched an investigation, alongside other probes by the University and the Leverhulme Trust, which provided him with a research grant.”
So the “diversity hire” has no understanding of the concept of free speech, or the concept of academic freedom, yet has been appointed principal of a Cambridge University college…
What a surprise, in the UK of 2024. Not.
The “Readers’ Comments” on that Daily Mail report are interesting. Almost every one supports the researcher, as do the votes on those comments.
Incidentally, the researcher in question is Jewish, so he cannot be described very plausibly as “Nazi” (nicht wahr?). See also a piece written on another subject by him: https://thecritic.co.uk/twilight-of-the-liberal-jew/.

The little Indian money-juggler is trying to ape the vulgar and unpleasant attacks on the sick, disabled, and unemployed that characterized the 2010-2015 government of Cameron-Levita, Osborne, and Dunce Duncan Smith.
If Sunak thinks that this tired and derivative form of “gutter politics” will fly, he is very mistaken. I was looking at the “Readers’ Comments” in the Daily Mail on this. Only about 1% support the policy and/or think that it will ever be possible (or desirable) to implement it.
We read that there is currently an “epidemic of shoplifting“. What does Sunak imagine will be the result of cutting off the last peanuts lifeline to people, leaving them totally desperate, destitute, homeless etc?
If Sunak and the Conservative Party are trying to improve their electoral chances by this, they are in cloud-cuckoo land. The only people who will be impressed will be the hard core of unthinking Con voters aged 60+, and they will vote Con anyway.
Of course, none of the announced policies will be implemented, or implementable, prior to the General Election. The question therefore devolves to the response from Starmer and Rachel Reeves etc, who will probably be forming the next government. If they follow in Sunak’s footsteps, there could be something akin to an uprising eventually; certainly social upheaval.
Bismarck introduced the skeleton of a Welfare State in Germany 150 years ago, not because the Iron Chancellor was soft, or very kind-hearted, but because he wanted to divert any revolutionary sentiment in the masses. Looks like the UK’s pygmy politicos are going the other way.
He and his ilk have also overseen mass immigration that has stifled growth in pay, exported goods jobs, pushed accommodation, health etc costs through the roof and massively increased taxes etc making many feel little or no benefit from actually working/striving for success.
“A group of self-styled ‘Robin Hoods’ are bragging on social media that they stole from Marks & Spencer to give to food banks.

They also claim they will replicate ‘this all across the country’ until the government answers their demands on food security, The Telegraph reported.
Everybody Eats claimed that food banks were aware that the goods were stolen and suggested its members had been asked to help.“

Now, more information. Seems that the egregious Israel-based Jew-Zionist solicitor, Mark Lewis, was involved (I was unaware of that until today, though did wonder when I saw a few tweets in the past week). He has messed up…again.
It seems Mr Lewis thought Mr Cantor had no assets and had financial immunity for my costs even if he lost.
The “misunderstanding” is catastrophic for Mr Cantor and his family because he must sell his house to pay my costs.
My opinion is that Mr Lewis should pay the costs! 2/2.
Lewis is actually a pretty poor lawyer anyway in my opinion (based partly on what I have read about him over the years), and he has in the past admitted that at times — apparently by reason of his prescribed medications, in part— he has, or has had, no idea of what he is or was doing.
Looks now as if that Cantor individual (of whom I know nothing, and of whom I had never heard until this case finished recently) will or might have to take legal action against Lewis himself if he is not to become homeless after his failed attempt to ruin a university academic. What a great pity…
It is not for me to pronounce on whether Lewis was negligent and/or dishonest in this particular case, but (once again) it seems that he has, shall we say, “questions to answer”.
Lewis, though now based in Israel, has a foothold in the UK as “partner” of a small law firm in West London.
Lewis is basically a self-publicist: see my previous (years ago) blog mentions of him.
That blog post contains links which detail many (though I think not all) of Lewis’s defaults.
There is a notorious Jew-Zionist cabal on Twitter/X, and in the UK mass media, which has been determined for years to present Lewis to a gullible Press readership, TV-watching public etc as “hot shot lawyer”, or (as often described) “top lawyer“.
The fact is that, when Lewis finally left the UK for Israel (to live in Israel) about 5 years ago, his own Counsel said (at his “trial” before a Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal in London, at which Lewis was found guilty of having posted savagely violent social media posts) that Lewis had “no assets” except his own clothes, a mobility scooter, and a private pension worth £70 a week. Even his car was being provided to him by the State disability benefit service, Motability.
Oddly (not), Lewis’s appearance before, and “conviction” by, the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal was not covered at all by the “occupied” UK msm, and only briefly by a few law magazines…
More:
Wow! Mark Lewis acted for Daniel Miller and Nina Power against Luke Turner. Lewis’ clients lost in spectacular fashion. Mr Miller is now bankrupt. I am not sure about Ms Power.
It is awful the same will happen to Mr Mendelsohn and Mr Cantor!
Seems that James Wilson is, on the face of it, a little too kind. Those Jew-Zionist fanatics (the defendants Cantor and Mendelsohn, whoever they are —I had heard of the unpleasant Newbon) were, after all, quite willing to ruin Mr. Wilson if they could.
As for Lewis, he is, in my opinion, repeatedly unprofessional, quite apart from, also in my opinion, being very far from as effective as his fellow-fanatics try to make him appear.
Lewis’s Third Witness Statementsays it— he “misunderstood“…
Mr Cantor was on a CFA with Mr Lewis, so if he settled with me for nominal damages and zero costs, he had to pay me almost nothing and his solicitor absoutely nothing.
Why would he have rejected this settlement in principle?
Lewis is no better than an “ambulance-chaser”, in my opinion.
For context. Mr Lewis referred to me as £19 Wilson because my maximum cost was £19/hour whereas his was £600/hour. And the Defendants – or perhaps Mr Lewis – refused mediation for two years until they lost the strike out application.
I keep seeing on Twitter/X that Lewis must be a great defamation lawyer because he “won when representing ‘Jack Monroe’ against Katie Hopkins, who lost and had to sell her house.”
True, Katie Hopkins did lose that case, and did have to sell her house to pay the legal costs supposedly incurred by that fraudulent purveyor of 10p-a-dinner swill, “Jack Monroe” (Melissa Hadjicostas, before she changed her name).
What that story leaves out is that, firstly, Katie Hopkins was either badly advised or, as I believe was the case, not advised at all; she had no lawyers, and so persisted with a defence which was bound to fail. She never stood a chance, but her pride got in the way.
As for Lewis, a child could have won that case against Katie Hopkins.
So Lewis was trying to blag £600 an hour for his most recent defective advice? Well, he will get nothing now (again); he will have to keep the lights switched off in his flat in Eilat, and “collect the pennies on the empties”, as people used to say.
Unfortunately this is necessary because I am dealing with unreasonable people. This message shows Pete Newbon’s total faith in Mark Lewis (@MLewisLawyer) of Patron Law (@LawPatron) to look after him in the litigation. Pete guessed he had to trust Mark Lewis. pic.twitter.com/6uNzvceSj4
Typical Lewis: tries to intimidate people who have no assets beyond (perhaps) a residential property; they, he hopes, will settle and, crucially, pay supposed “costs” to Lewis, who then gets money without having had to win at trial.
The defamation case won by James Wilson, included references in the court judgment that Rachel Riley had promoted the crowdfunder by the defendant (who’d committed the libel) to employ lawyer Mark Lewis.

Lewis should be (at long last) struck off the solicitors’ roll; as for Myerson, the matter should be placed before the Bar Standards Board. I hope that Mr. Wilson complains formally to the BSB about him. In the meantime, Myerson should not be permitted to sit as a Recorder (if he still is so permitted after his previous defaults).
Yet another instance of Lewis having been, if not dishonest (?), then certainly negligent. That, at least, was the view of yet another High Court judge.
The world has had capitalist societies, socialist societies, feudal societies etc, but now, in the UK, has emerged a new form of society— the permanently “offended” society of fake “diversity”.
Most of the faked “offence” is taken by “the usual suspects”, of course.
The Daily Mail and Jewish/Zionist so-called “charities” (including the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) are whining because someone convicted (on evidence that would have shamed the Star Chamber) in 2018, and then sentenced to 6.5 years, is being released a few months before the end of his full term expires.
Most prisoners are released at, or even before, the halfway point. In this case, that would have meant release in 2021, three years ago.
I hope that the State will not be so cruel as to deny the young couple the right to have their child returned to them. To do that would be absolutely evil.
If the newspaper report (penned by one Iwan Stone, incidentally) is correct, the couple intend to live in Portugal when they can. Good luck to them as they move on from all of this.
Have they not suffered enough?

For no obvious reason, The Merchant of Venice springs to mind. I have not seen a proper production being put on for quite a while.
Othello seems to be more popular.
Perhaps it always was; it has also inspired more adaptations and variations, as in this old noir:

No matter how much money the U.S. Government sends to the Kiev regime, no matter even how much armament and ammunition is sent, the Kiev regime cannot “win”, even to the extent of occupying the Donbass and Crimea.
The Kiev regime army is flagging as many desert the field, and many more avoid conscription. To be recruited by the Kiev regime army is to be sent to quite likely death or life-changing injury on the front-lines, which are now starting to collapse.
Ukraine is producing few children, and a quarter or more of its pre-2022 population is living outside Ukraine. If American and EU aid stopped, there would be no fighting within a few weeks, followed by either a negotiated armistice or Russian victory. As it is, it looks as though this brutal war will smoulder on for months, maybe even a year or two.
In the end, though, Russia will “win”, in the sense of taking over all of Eastern Ukraine, and possibly the coast as far as, and maybe beyond, Odessa.
I watched a few minutes of a very biased BBC World News report about the war. The reporter, some bearded fellow whose name I did not catch, did say something about why Ukrainians try to avoid fighting. Apart from the obvious dangers, open-ended service (no way of getting out) and poor conditions generally.
What, however, made the report farcical was said reporter’s then assertion that Ukraine is a “genuine democracy“. Hardy ha ha… A “genuine democracy” that now refuses to hold elections, has banned trade unions, which press-gangs people up to age 60 and beyond to serve as cannon-fodder on the collapsing front-lines, and which shoots dissidents, or holds them without trial in unpleasant camps and prisons.

Talking point
I have known a few, not many, Persians/Iranians in my life. One group was a family the head of which was a member of the Parliament in Iran under the Shah. When the Islamic Revolution happened, that man was hanged but his two sons were in London as students at Imperial College, living in a mansion flat in Little Venice bought for that purpose. Their mother was later allowed to join them. Exiles. I got to know them via a mutual friend when living in the same district of the capital.
I also became briefly acquainted, in 1976, before the Revolution, with two of the children of a wealthy Iranian/Persian family; I believe that, as with the first family, the family were large landowners. I saw a picture of their palatial house in some province or other, maybe Shiraz.
The children of that family were a young man whom I had met while travelling from London to Penzance by train one night (a First Class compartment but not a sleeper). He was a student (Architecture, I think, if memory serves), aged about the same as me (I was 19, I think).
Not long after, I was invited for an informal supper with the student and his sister, a charming young woman in her early twenties, who was working in Brighton as a nurse, I think. The family had bought two or maybe three bungalows in the same small close on the edge of that town so that various young family members could be together while in England. A young female cousin who lived across the way also attended.
I remember the evening partly because I arrived from London, and departed, on my motorbike, a Suzuki 250, and was able to use, for the first time, the then quite new M23, and which had almost no traffic at all in the mid/late evening. Hard to believe, today.
I lost touch with the student and his sister, and wonder what happened to them after the Revolution. I suppose that they too stayed on in the UK as exiles.
Over the years, I met the odd Iranian, and at one time (early 1980s) I was acquainted with an old fellow (as it then seemed), Edward Sykes (now long-deceased), who at one time, during WW2, had been sent to Teheran under diplomatic cover, but whose real job was to prepare to blow up and/or scout out the land for the sabotage of, numerous bridges, should German forces invade the country. Unlikely perhaps, but with the Wehrmacht already in the Caucasus and, on the other hand, in North Africa (menacing British-controlled Egypt and Palestine, and French-controlled Syria), not impossible.
A common-enough surname, but the Middle and Near East (and especially Persian) linkages are telling. cf: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Sykes_(writer), another Sykes with Persian, Arab, SAS and SOE links and experiences.
Anyway, Edward had a group of people from Surrey (I was in the first year of my law degree, and had moved for a while back to living with my parents at Reigate); those old people went trekking on public footpaths through woods and fields once a week, starting and finishing at a rural pub somewhere, the route meticulously planned out in advance. I think that most of those people had some kind of WW2 intelligence or connected background.
Those old people were tough! After the fairly long trek and lunchtime pub food (ploughman’s lunch, pint of beer), they were all still alert, but I always fell asleep in Edward’s car (he and his wife were neighbours of my parents) on the way back! A tough generation.
Edward told me that he had been tasked, during the War, with the kidnap of a high-ranking Iranian, General Zahedi, thought to be pro-German. This Edward accomplished by using the services of the then quite new SAS. The general was sent to Palestine in a plane.
The story has a twist: later, that general’s son became, inter alia, Ambassador of the Shah in London, and invited Edward to a reception at the embassy, where he told Edward that his father had always said that he had not been badly treated in captivity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ardeshir_Zahedi.
What strikes me, looking at some of the high-ranking military and naval people under the present regime in Iran, is that quite a few have strongly Aryan/European looks. Unsurprising in a way, in that the Aryan migration from Atlantis to ancient India then gradually ebbed back in influence from east to west: ancient India, ancient Persia, the Middle Eastern cultures, to Greece and Rome, and then to our Northern European culture, both during classical times and then, more particularly, since the 15thC and Renaissance.
There is also the point that some of the Persian aristocracy married German women in the 20thC. I know that another sister of that student I met on a train was a natural blonde.
My own direct connection to Iran has been less than slight— a 2-hour refuelling stopover in 1967, in the early hours at the then Teheran Airport, at the time a deserted and gloomy building with nothing much happening.
So, instead of improving the Green Belt, and making it greener, Starmer’s pathetic “plan” is to build on it, creating inevitably-poor-quality housing developments, which will be occupied mainly by immigrants of various kinds. How do I know this? Because there are over a million arriving in the UK every single year now, and even if a couple of hundred thousand people leave (mostly Brits, fleeing to Australia, New Zealand etc), that still means that the population of the UK is increasing by half a million to a million every single year (almost entirely noin-European), despite the (white British) birthrate having fallen to an unprecedented low.
Immigration on the mass scale has to be stopped. If you like, make an exception for the odd brain surgeon or nuclear scientist, but that would be in the hundreds, not the hundreds of thousands.
The mass immigration to which the UK is now subject is unsustainable for several reasons. First, the very numbers; secondly, the fact that most of those coming in, not just the 5% or 10% on the “small boats”, are actually useless to the people of this country. There are further reasons as well.

Officers used CCTV footage to connect the brothers to another incident where a self-loading pistol was fired in a heavily pedestrianised area of Homerton on May 21, 2020. A few days later, officers examined a block of flats in Lynmouth Road after a warrant was issued.“

“The Pentagon chief announced a threat to global energy due to attacks by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Russian oil refineries.
Lloyd Austin announced this at a hearing in the US Senate. “ Certainly these attacks could have a knock-on effect on the global energy situation ,” he said.
At the same time, the head of the American defense department spoke in favor of Kiev stopping such actions. According to him, Ukraine “is better off pursuing tactical and operational goals that can directly affect current battles.”
Ukrainian drones have attacked several Russian oil refineries since the beginning of March. Among them are factories in the Nizhny Novgorod, Samara, Ryazan regions, and Krasnodar Territory.“
The West, particularly the USA, is shooting itself in the foot. It gives money, arms, and ammunition to the Kiev regime, which uses part of that to attack oil refineries in Russia. Result— the world price of oil increases, Russia makes even more surplus from the many refineries still operating normally, and the West, including the USA, pays through the nose even more for oil, making its citizens poorer and its industries less competitive.
“A trans woman who threatened to kill, blind and break the backs of woman’s rights campaigners Kellie-Jay Keen – known as Posie Parker – and Helen Joyce has been spared jail.
Layla Le Fey, 44, was handed a suspended jail sentence after the court heard she had been struggling with her mental health when she made the treats of extreme violence and arson towards the activists.
One post from Le Fey said: ‘I’m a trans woman and I’m not ashamed to admit I’d be happy to physically kick the s*** out of you and pull your eyes out and break your spine’.
In another post, Le Fey wrote: ‘If you want to prove your point that some trans people are extremely violent, I’m game’, while a third she said she wanted to burn Mrs Keen – founder of the group Standing for Women.
In a victim statement, Mrs Keen said she wanted to make clear the threats against her were made by a man.
‘A violent man committed a crime,’ she said. The violent threats had far greater impact on my husband and children than me. They are very worried for my safety.
‘Terrorising women into silence was the intent of this man. I want to make it clear, this crime was committed by a man.’
“She added: ‘This is what happens when women speak up. I didn’t want to elevate this person’s comments, so I did not respond. These tweets disturbed me and I’ve no doubt given the opportunity this person would have carried out these threats.”She added: ‘This is what happens when women speak up.

In fact, Tim Montgomerie is too mild. Abortion at a late stage is closer to murder than infanticide. Infanticide is usually done by a mother not long after birth; there are usually compelling extenuations of psychology and physiology. Abortion as we know it today is a planned and organized process, coldly executed, and often involving considerable profit.
A point made by me on the blog in the past, several times. Idiotic Gordon Brown, who thought himself so very clever was, I believe, the “brains” behind “working tax credits”, i.e. a system whereby employers could pay scheiss wages to their employees, who then had their pay topped-up by the State. “Welfare” for poor-paying employers. Madness.
Terrible. I am glad to say that I have never been on “Universal Credit”, but were I not exempt by reason of age I just might have been, especially since the Jewish lobby (sub nom “UK Lawyers for Israel”) had the Bar Standards Board contrive a case to have me disbarred in 2016.
We hear much about the “epidemic of shoplifting” and other crime, but I am wondering how much of that is driven by the fact that the social security/”welfare” system now does not really provide a sufficient safety net for those without paid work or private means. Not all crime is driven by real need, of course, but much is.

“The Sunday Times reports that among the residents of Ukraine there are no people left willing to fight, and a breakthrough of Russian troops to Kyiv is quite real “The front line is 480 km away, but to nervous young people from Podol, a Kyiv district famous for its nightclubs and cafes, the war suddenly seems much closer. “I’m afraid,” the publication quotes 31-year-old Dima as saying, specifying that he is a “heavy smoker.” Main points of the article:
Ukrainian generals said that there is no alternative to mass mobilization to stop Russia’s offensive. Zelensky warned allies to expect more territorial losses and called on Ukrainian men who fled abroad to return and serve their country.
But under the bright spring sun of Kyiv, the answers to questions about Zelensky’s desire to mobilize are clear. The video producer, who wished to remain anonymous, said that he travels between Ukrainian cities only at night to avoid being drafted into the army.
Western partners hesitant about arms supplies face brutal calculations: the population of the remaining Ukraine is approximately 31 million, compared with 144 million in Russia. The longer the military conflict continues, the greater the fear that the numbers will prevail.
Ukraine, suffering from the lowest birth rate in the world, tried to save young people from the horrors of war. But now, when the average age of a Ukrainian soldier is 43 years old, the desire to protect the country’s future prevails.
In the capital of Ukraine, hundreds of thousands of people are browsing Telegram channels in search of advice on how to avoid conscription into the army. The messages are encrypted: “They just dumped a lot of snow on one person near the Polytechnic Institute station,” “It’s very cloudy on the street near the Festivalny shopping center now.”
People are accustomed to the idea that the front line is far away, that it is unshakable. But the truth is that the Russians could break through at any moment. We can fight for Kyiv again. People don’t understand the threat,” says military medic Boris.“

“The toddler’s frail, malnourished body scarcely twitched as she lay helplessly in an incubator chamber in the already-decimated Gaza hospital.
Leila Jeneid, one of countless children who have passed through the doors of Kamal Adwan Hospital, in the north of the Gaza Strip, has suffered as a result of starvation and dehydration.
In a video clip, Leila can be seen quickly breathing in and out, desperate for a breath of fresh air in one of the 12 remaining hospitals in the besieged enclave.
The outline of her ribs, along with all her other bones, are visible through her pallid, paper-thin skin, which sits in stark contrast to the blue blanket underneath her that provides little comfort to the toddler, who is not old enough to comprehend the hellish suffering she is undergoing.
Her jaw is slack as she lies on her back inside the plastic cage of the incubator, barely able to move her arms and legs.
She can’t keep her eyes open as medics at the hospital, which UN official Andrea De Domenico this week said was receiving ‘about 15 malnourished children a day and is struggling to maintain services,’ run tests to understand how to help her.
But it’s food, water and proper rest she needs, all things that the whole enclave is desperately in need of, and all things that Israel has been accused of deliberately withholding from civilians in its bitter war against Hamas, which – according to a top UN human rights official – could amount to a war crime.”

The “usual suspects” constantly promote books, films etc about events and/or invented events that are said to have happened, in any event, over 80 years ago.
“A father-of-five who was jailed and handed a £475,000 court bill after a dispute with his neighbours has been ordered to sell his home to pay for the huge sum.
Mark Coates, 56, and wife Louise, 52, have been involved in a ‘bitter, aggressive and violent’ dispute with their neighbours Brian Greenwood, 69, and Janice Turner, 65, after moving in next door in the countryside near Hastings in 2015.
The row arose out of a disagreement over a fence between their homes on a quiet road in Robertsbridge, a court heard. The Coates family wanted to replace the structure with a brick wall but Mrs Taylor argued this would encroach on her land.”

When I was at the Bar, I advised and appeared on several such cases in the County Court, both in London and the provinces. Almost all, in fact all, should have settled long before they got to court, long before any barristers were instructed.
I think that I can say that I, and other counsel in the cases known to me, did our best to achieve reasonable closure, but these are cases (often involving trivial amounts of land) where reason always seems to fly out out of the window.
In many cases, all Counsel, solicitors, and the judge in the matter, understand that the matters in question should settle before enormous costs are racked up but, often, the litigants are effectively willing to risk bringing down ruin on themselves for a chance of gaining a victory over their neighbours (with whom they will have to live —nearby— afterwards, after the case ends, whichever way it goes), unless one party sells up and moves (in which event…well, you get my point).
If you told someone to remortgage his house, take out equity of £50,000, £100,000 or more, then go to Las Vegas, and stake the entire amount, maybe in one spin, on red or black at the roulette table, the houseowner would call you crazy, but that is, often, exactly what he or she —often a couple— are willing to do in taking to the County Court (in some cases to the High Court) such cases.
I remember one case I had that was about a wedge-shaped piece of land running the length of a North London suburban garden; at one end it was only about an inch or so wide and, at the other, about a foot.
What can one say? Territorial feeling can be very powerful.
Private enterprise —properly regulated for honesty, health and safety, employee rights etc— should run most commerce and industry, but there are exceptions, among which are the main structures of the economy providing services to the whole people: water supply, large-scale energy, electricity generation and supply, roads, railways.
I love talking to old people, people who don't have smart phones, and aren't on Twitter.
It's a window into a different world, the 1950s, 1940s, 1930s that is rapidly fading from memory.
Talk to these people any opportunity you get, learn about their world, you won't regret it.
Very true. As for me [b.1956], my memories of even the late 1950s are few, but those of the 1960s, and up to the present year, are many. Speaking very broadly, I should say that the dividing line between the UK of 2024 and an earlier and different UK lies, arguably, somewhen between the Thatcher election victory of 1979 and the fall of socialism in or about 1989. Maybe 1979 as far as the UK is concerned, domestically. Too much to cover here in a few paragraphs, though.
American urban planning history
When you think of American cities you think of places built for maximum efficiency and commerce – not necessarily for beauty and harmony. This photo often does the rounds… pic.twitter.com/REkPBUZTbe
It wasn't only public buildings. Take the Erie County Savings Bank in Buffalo (since demolished in an attempt at "urban renewal"): pic.twitter.com/0LKmMcLmCO
The public pushed back. The “Design Excellence Program” was established in 1994 to ensure higher quality public buildings. But the results weren't great:
San Francisco's Federal Building is so bizarre that it almost defies analysis… pic.twitter.com/huMW8VtzUQ
But something eroded American beauty more than this misguided artistry: efficiency.
The US once had dense, more European-style cities, and workers commuted via public streetcars. These were soon to be sacrificed for the great highways… pic.twitter.com/ti7vMxiVXp
Amidst a frenzy of industrialization in the 1940s, the US launched a decades-long project of freeway construction. Huge swathes of existing cities were demolished in the process, like in Kansas City: pic.twitter.com/BJhetxzhQh
Ironically, this breakneck pursuit of efficiency sacrificed what would today be some of the city's most profitable real estate. Those downtown buildings would be worth around $655 million today. pic.twitter.com/TBxcmKLrQ4
The dream of European-style cities in America was all but eradicated. Suburban sprawl meant cities lost significant chunks of their tax bases, and inner cities fell into spirals of decline.
"Reform party is now ahead of Tories among the working-class and northerners" (The Times). If you belong to the Substack (https://t.co/liUeIhMiRY) you already knew this –and where Reform will do best at 2024 GE https://t.co/ADIm6HRXer
“Reform UK” is just more “controlled opposition”, of course, and pro-Israel controlled opposition at that; still, its existence moves the “Overton window”, and that may be significant.

Naturally, Zelensky wants cash, not arms and ammunition. You can’t transfer arms and ammunition into an offshore account…

It is an exciting time for HM Land Registry (HMLR) as we continue to embark on a major transformation programme. HMLR's ambition is to become the world’s leading land registry for speed, simplicity and an open approach to data.

Seems that H.M. Land Registry (or its ad agency) does not know the difference between “principle” and “principal“. On that basis, I am sceptical about anything they say they will do; it is not trivial, but a matter of both basic education and checking what is put before the public.

So much for the “military experts”, many of which (as in the case of the reporter David Axe) turn out to be not very expert at all: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Axe.
People of that sort write their rubbish for (in his case) Forbes magazine, the Daily Telegraph etc, and people believe it implicitly because it is in (albeit wrongfully) “trusted” publications, yet much of the content is unreliable. Read Axe’s Wikipedia entry. Not an ex-officer, not a military historian as such, but a writer of fiction primarily, at least until recently. His reporting on military matters has been patchy; refer to the Wikipedia entry.
There are many scribblers of that sort. He is far from being the only defaulter.
Of course, in relation to the Ukraine war, a significant factor in reportage is that most Western msm outlets are openly biased to an extent not seen since the 1940s. Anything seen in the msm relating to Ukraine, Russia, Putin etc has to be taken with a pinch of salt.
Forbes" columnist David Ax criticized the "Challenger 2" tanks which Great Britain sent to Ukraine and called them useless. He pointed out that Ukraine received tanks without a set of additional armor, while the additional three tons of weight would make this tank even less… pic.twitter.com/7Idf0GZUyQ

Future archaeologists may find such tanks buried under a hundred feet of chernozem, and wonder what they were.

This is the problem with Shadi’s new identitarianism when it comes to Hamas.
Mainstream news sources have no idea nor any way to check the numbers coming from Hamas. But here he argues that not to trust those Hamas numbers is genocide.
Jew-Zionist argues that the numbers of civilian and other dead and wounded in Gaza are not accurate and may be, at least in part, invented.
I dare say, though, that the same Jew-Zionist (and many another) thinks that any attempt to critically examine the numbers involved, or the nature and extent, of the so-called “holocaust” of WW2, is not only “antisemitic” but evil…

Green. Some look about 14 or 15. Obviously untrained, looking at their posture, body language etc. God help them if they are not taught how to stay alive in the field.
Ukraine (Kiev regime) cannot win this war, or even keep the front stable. Russia cannot lose, and will not lose.

No one in their right mind should vote Tory at the general election. Yes, we have a lack of viable alternatives and we should work to find good independent candidates. But anyone who votes Tory has a form of Stockholm syndrome. The Tory government destroyed the country.
