Bercow autobiography

The autobiography of former Speaker of the Commons, the half-Jew John Bercow, has been published, and is reviewed by Douglas Murray here: https://unherd.com/2020/02/the-strange-tragedy-of-john-bercow/

I did not much like what I saw (on TV) of Bercow: my primary criticism of his behaviour is that he was biased. He openly ranted against the BNP to the schoolchildren’s play “Parliament”, at a time when the BNP were within sight of winning a few seats, in 2009 or 2010. A silly and nasty little person, who seemed unable to control his drunken slut of a wife.

Freedom of expression

“Harry Miller, the man whose freedom of expression was breached by Humberside Police, has spoken out for the first time after the High Court ruled in his favour.

Mr Miller, 54, was speaking on the steps of the High Court on Friday morning after partially winning his case against the force which descended on his workplace in response to a tweet they deemed to be “transphobic”.

The limerick, which was posted on social media, was recorded as a “hate incident”, despite the police admitting that no crime was committed.” [Hull Live]

https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/news/hull-east-yorkshire-news/harry-miller-humberside-police-court-3847539

“He argued that Humberside Police, following the College of Policing’s guidance, had sought to “dissuade him (Mr Miller) from expressing himself on such issues in the future”, which he said was “contrary to his fundamental right to freedom of expression”.

The judge said Mr Miller strongly denies being prejudiced against transgender people, and regards himself as taking part in the “ongoing debate” about reform of the Gender Recognition Act 2004, which the Government consulted on in 2018.

Announcing the court’s decision, Mr Justice Julian Knowles said: “The claimant’s tweets were lawful and that there was not the slightest risk that he would commit a criminal offence by continuing to tweet.

“I find the combination of the police visiting the claimant’s place of work, and their subsequent statements in relation to the possibility of prosecution, were a disproportionate interference with the claimant’s right to freedom of expression because of their potential chilling effect.”

The judge added that the effect of the police turning up at Mr Miller’s place of work “because of his political opinions must not be underestimated”.

He continued: “To do so would be to undervalue a cardinal democratic freedom. In this country we have never had a Cheka, a Gestapo or a Stasi. We have never lived in an Orwellian society.” [Grimsby Live]

cc. Barnet Police, Essex Police etc!

It occurs to me that, just as Gandhi promoted the idea of “mass disobedience” in India, the users of social media might simply, en masse, refuse to go along with the nonsense that has been imposed for many years past, certainly since the Blair elected dictatorship passed the very bad law known as Communications Act 2003, s.127): http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/21/section/127

Twitter users and others should take their courage in their hands and surge through the trammels put in their way by bad law and manipulative special interest groups such as the Jewish lobby.

Dominic Cummings and the Boris-idiot reshuffle

This is the person now effectively in charge of what passes for a government of the UK, in a situation where the part-Jew sociopath posing as Prime Minister cannot do anything but come up with schoolboy plans to build bridges over oceans etc:

Below, my main blog articles about Cummings:

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2020/01/03/dominic-cummings-a-government-of-dystopia-and-lunacy-posing-as-genius/

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/08/10/les-eminences-grises-of-dystopia/

This is like some low-budget sci-fi/futuristic film, in which the government is run secretly from a rubbish-strewn inner London street and by someone whose only camouflage missing is a stack of copies of The Big Issue.

Meanwhile, as in the days of the more corrupt late-Roman emperors, or the mid-1970s’ Harold Wilson government of “Lady Forkbender” and her “Lavender List”, influence and indeed power is wielded not only by some eccentric posing as a dystopian “genius” but also by the “ho” of the idiot trying to pose as Prime Minister of this poor country.

Boris-idiot has a problem, because he himself is actually incapable of running the proverbial whelk stall. His metier is that of the part-Jew public entertainer.

View image on Twitter

What makes it worse is that Dominic Cummings is actually right on several issues, such as, inter alia, the need to deport black and other criminals— and the equally important need to stop the HS2 madness.

Suella Braverman

“Suella Braverman…is mesmerically dim, with the new attorney general’s latest Channel 4 News interview suggesting not only that she could be outperformed at the dispatch box but that she could be outperformed by the dispatch box. Or indeed any other item of furniture in the Palace of Westminster.” [Marina Hyde, in The Guardian]

https://twitter.com/UKDemockery/status/1228018563354693632?s=20

Suella Braverman is yet another post-1997 political drone (elected 2015) who thinks that it is terribly clever to keep repeating the same phrases. I suppose that there are many average Joes who, reading the Daily Mail, Sun etc, think that a woman who is a barrister and has appeared in the High Court frequently must be highly intelligent, but those of us who have or have had similar status (and, as in my case, were also frequently in the High Court at one time) are harder to convince!

Lisa Nandy

Bin her. Bin her. Bin her. Das ist’s!

La vie litteraire francaise…

The Cabinet of idiots

“Whitehall is now littered with…secretaries of state such as Gavin Williamson, while Liz Truss – who’d lose a battle of wits with an emoji – is the longest serving cabinet minister.”

“I’m afraid Johnson’s much-vaunted reshuffle this week merely served as a reminder that the only positive discrimination scheme in this country that has long functioned to the highest level is the one that puts idiots in the cabinet. By this metric, the loss of Andrea Leadsom is a blow, but one that’s more than made up for by the promotion of the likes of Oliver Dowden, Alok Sharma, Anne-Marie Trevelyan and Suella Braverman. Braverman in particular is mesmerically dim, with the new attorney general’s latest Channel 4 News interview suggesting not only that she could be outperformed at the dispatch box but that she could be outperformed by the dispatch box. Or indeed any other item of furniture in the Palace of Westminster.” [Marina Hyde, The Guardian]

A reminder about Greta Thunberg

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/09/29/greta-thunberg-system-approved-wunderkind/

Africa

If only, after 1945, the European powers had agreed to co-operate in developing Africa as a continent, populating it with white people, taking care of the Africans, the wildlife, the environment, creating towns, cities, farms, with the environment, the animals, the birds being protected. No “African nationalists”, no corrupt and hopelessly incompetent African dictators or greedy African “democratic” politicians, no predation by marauders, whether African armed bands or greedy transnational companies.

It could have been so good.

Diary Blog, 12 February 2020

Regret truncated blog yesterday, 11 February 2020. Computer had to be taken away and powerwashed; it only now returns to the fray. All the same, the article on the recent “Islamist” terror attacks will be posted both here and on the diary blog for 11 February 2020 when finished.

[1800 hrs: see here https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2020/02/12/terrorism-and-reason/]

HS2

The HS2 decision is a very bad one, very obviously taken so that Boris-idiot can be seen to be doing “big things”. Environmentally harmful, a trashing of the green and pleasant land. So much even in transport could be done for £120 BN or more. New branch lines, robot ultralight train lines etc. Terrible.

The HS2 decision does show that David Cameron-Levita-Schlumberger’s faked-up “austerity” policies of 2010-2017 were driven purely by an ideology of repression. One day, that bastard (and Osborne, and Dunce Duncan Smith, and “lord” Freud etc) must be personally punished for their crimes.

Internet regulation

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7995191/Ofcom-powers-regulate-harmful-not-illegal-online-content.html

Here we have what this ZOG Cabinet is really all about: repression of free speech in the guise of both preventing “terrorism” and “protecting children”. The American cartoon below, several years old now, again hits the spot exactly.

Bso85QHCEAA1yun

A pathetic camp drone from the NSPCC was on Radio 4 Today Programme, supporting this evil ZOG policy. Wants as much “regulation” as possible. I’m sure that he does.

“Harmful content”? Yeah, right….We know what that means. Anything which is for a Northern European culture and civilization. Anything of which the Jew-Zionists disapprove. Anything against the “Great Replacement” of Europeans by non-whites. Anything that challenges the fakery and hoaxes of the “holocaust” farrago.

An example of public waste

Amy Lamé, paid £75,000 a year from public funds to do not very much as “Night Czar” for London. Sadiq Khan decided on this useless post and its generous remuneration (generous bearing in mind that this gigantic and unpleasant lesbian is actually doing other “showbiz” work of some kind). Much more than a nurse gets; more than some junior doctors get. What kind of sick society is this?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amy_Lam%C3%A9

 

Corbyn

Yesterday heard a little, on radio, of Corbyn in the Commons (on Monday, I think). Yapping about black criminals being deported (and how bad that is, apparently). So far about 17 of the bastards have gone. The rest will be released, it seems, to prey again. Anyway, 17 or 30 out of hundreds of thousands? It’s a drop in the ocean. And what about the “rappers” and “music” “artistes” who are encouraging violence towards (mainly) white people (the people formerly known as “English”)? They should be “offed” too, either to Jamaica etc or, well, just “offed”… Maybe I should “rap” about it…

So…Corbyn. I had all but forgotten that he is still posing as Labour leader. He failed to beat the Jew lobby in his own party, he surrounded himself with black (and brown and white) deadhead MPs. He made speeches in favour of the tinker “traveller” riff-raff, failed to take the fight to the Zionists in the UK and paid lip-service to the largely-faked “holocaust” farrago. Corbyn is just a joke. Kick him off his pedestal now, the useless brainless polytechnic lecturer and NUS politico! I could kick him off myself, he is so irritating! He (and political idiot John McDonnell, a slimy “me-too” poundland “Communist”) had a real chance to totally mainstream anti-Zionism, but failed to go nuclear when he might have won the election had he done so. Bin him.

The “Special Relationship” one-way street

Anyone who, like me, has lived in the USA, knows that the “Special Relationship” means little outside British TV studios, radio studios and newspaper offices. It is a one-way street. Quasi-colonial, with Britain as the colony. To hell with it.

Immigration attitudes

 

Fake charities

I have mentioned in many blogs the fake “charity” “Campaign Against Antisemitism”. Well, here’s another: “Institute of Economic Affairs”, here (below) represented by some callow youth who might be sent, usefully, to a labour camp where he can work for his pay or food instead of spouting about how UK citizens should become economic serfs of the uber-wealthy few.

Speaking of which, the “IEA” was one of about 150 (!) fake “think tanks” set up by an influential Conservative Party donor called Antony Fisher [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antony_Fisher], whose granddaughter Rachel Whetstone [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rachel_Whetstone] was embedded for years at Conservative HQ, met her husband Steve Hilton there [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Hilton] and now does public relations for Uber taxis.

I just looked up the aforesaid “callow youth”, who is in fact 26!

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

Well, police officers look also young to me now! Seems that he is gay. Why are so many young Conservative Party persons gay? Almost all seem to be.

The wish of that tweeter will come to pass, but in the future, especially the far future.

Amazing covertly-taken film footage (below)

 

The “real world” intrudes on today’s blog, sadly…

In past decades, people would probably have been shouting, writing etc about how a government behaving like this should be shot etc, but today, people are scared of the police arriving at their door at the slightest provocation (e.g. an angry or even simply dissenting tweet, or Facebook post, or remark made in public or even in private).

The non-European real terrorists have over the years symbiotically worked with the Zionists and others who wish to repress our freedom of expression; new repressive laws are in place, the police and courts are becoming hysterical…the net result is that we can have a quasi-tyrannical and completely dishonest dystopian government such as that run by Boris-idiot and his lunatic-in-chief, Cummings, and yet citizens are actually afraid even to say anything really “edgy” about what should be done about it. All one sees are bleats on Twitter, mostly as weak as water.

As to the food story, It may even be that there is an occultic high-Masonic aspect to this: the wealthy able to eat properly, be healthier, as a class or group also ruling over the “pleb” masses eating junk food, pop tarts, pot noodles, fried chicken and McD hamburgers etc. Already, people in the wealthier parts of the UK live about 10 years longer and also longer in good health than those in depressed parts of the North of England. The same is true of the USA.

More about Labour and the Jew-Zionist lobby

I happened to see this https://www.thejc.com/news/uk-news/labour-expels-member-who-accused-rachel-riley-of-prostituting-jewish-heritage-1.496324

I am scarcely a regular reader of the Jewish Chronicle (it has reported on me over the past decade, though…https://www.thejc.com/news/uk-news/amazon-user-claims-jewish-lobby-1.18697?highlight=ian+millard)

I suppose that those who are now being expelled from the Labour Party at the behest of the Jewish lobby feel badly about it, but they are really being done a favour. Corbyn had his points, but was terribly weak in fighting back against the Israel/Zionist/Jewish lobby. He never did take the fight to them, and even persisted in paying lip-service to the absurd “holocaust” farrago. McDonnell was even worse. Now, all but about 4 or 5 Labour MPs have signed up to the so-called “International Definition” of so-called “Antisemitism” (in fact adopted so far by fewer than 20 states out of 200).

Labour is a waste of space now. A waste of time too. Why would any real British activist in any case support a party which is now really just for the blacks and browns? A party which supports mass immigration too. We have seen that many former Labour voters rejected Labour in the recent 2019 General Election. Those voters mostly did not vote Conservative; they just did not vote Labour.

Charles meets Greta Nut

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7915307/Prince-Charles-flies-Davos-jet-emitting-six-tonnes-carbon-launch-sustainable-project.html

The Royal Family are dim anyway, but why do they always have to make such idiots of themselves? Charles “has a summit” with Greta Thunberg, a poorly-educated Swedish autistic and mental case, aged 17 (as of a couple of weeks ago). Does he not see how stupid this makes him look? Not to mention the hypocrisy of lecturing others about “climate change” and “carbon emissions” while taking a private jet from the UK to Switzerland!

Charles, I suppose, imagines that this makes him look terribly cutting-edge and credible. No. It makes him look even more silly. I suppose that, when he made his “10 years to save the planet” speech, few shouted out that “the emperor has no clothes”…despite that fact that Charles said the same thing or very similar about 11 years ago!

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/theroyalfamily/4952918/Prince-Charles-we-have-100-months-to-save-the-world.html

In fact, back then, in 2009, Charles said that he himself had calculated that the world had only 96 months in which to be “saved” (i.e. 8 years), which would mean until 2017! Ha ha!

https://www.independent.co.uk/environment/green-living/just-96-months-to-save-world-says-prince-charles-1738049.html

https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2009/mar/08/prince-charles-monarchy

As if that perhaps well-meaning but dim fellow could “calculate” the above in any case (no-one could, but certainly not him!).

In fact, Charles “gave the world a reprieve” in 2015 by extending his deadline to 2019. Wrong again. To be fair on him, other reports did say that he had extended the deadline to 2050. I suppose that some people actually take him seriously. Not many, though. Maybe make a personal start by not travelling by private jet? A pointless piece of virtue-signalling, true, but at least he would not be making himself look a complete idiot…

https://www.climatedepot.com/2019/07/16/prince-charles-at-it-again-issues-yet-another-climate-tipping-point-deadline-after-previous-100-month-deadline-expires/

Well, I suppose that Charles might just be “badly-advised”. He certainly will be if he actually listens to that crazed little nut, Greta Thunberg! At least Nikolai II only allowed himself to be misled by Rasputin and a few others (and Rasputin sometimes made cogent points about Russia’s direction).

Charles and Israel

After his activities at Davos, Charles will be flying off to Israel on his private jet, to speechify about another largely faked narrative, the embellished “holocaust” farrago. Don’t bother. No-one’s listening.

More about Greta Nut

I am rarely seen supporting Trump, but it is surreal to see a headline such as “Greta Thunberg blasts Trump“! I’m sure that he is really worried…

Free speech and its enemies

Look at this idiot:

So according to Peter-somebody, anyone questioning the “gas chambers” fable (for which there is no real evidence), or anyone questioning one of the literally hundreds of faked “holocaust” memoirs or other accounts, must be imprisoned. The spirit of Stalinism is not dead…The absurd thing is that Peter-somebody and his like are usually not Jewish but non-Jew “useful idiot” doormats (he also does not seem to know that, out of about 200 states in the world, only about 13 states have such laws, and only a handful of others have laws which go some way toward that position— about 18 altogether):

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

Here’s Angela Eagle MP [Lab., Wallasey], who thinks that it is “deeply worrying” that 5% of the population have worked out that the “holocaust” farrago is a System (NWO/ZOG) fable convenue:

Had she read further, she would be even more “worried”, because the survey says that a further 20% of the public of the UK do not believe many of the main details of the fable.

Personally, I find it more worrying that Angela Eagle and the less-prominent “useful idiots” have not noticed that that Independent survey is from last year! It is from 27 January 2019! Sometimes the details matter…

Labour leadership contest

Labour’s farcical “leadership” contest trundles on, with loudmouth ignoramus Jess Phillips, having been unable even to get into the starting stalls, now backing System drone Lisa Nandy.

Warwick University

Nice to know that at least one university is trying to protect freedom of expression from the manipulations of the Jewish lobby.

As for the so called “International Definition” of “antisemitism”, only about 18 states out of 200 have “adopted” it (I thought 30-35 until today, but was wrong— only 18 in fact), and several of those are having second thoughts now:

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

“…one of the original drafters, Kenneth S. Stern has opposed the misuse of the definition to suppress and limit free speech.” [Wikipedia]

More re. Labour leadership

https://twitter.com/rozzleberry/status/1220023284089094150?s=20

Well, since you ask…

CSrYbsNU8AATLhJ

https://twitter.com/MHarris360/status/1220048927690579970?s=20

I think that Labour is asking the wrong questions. Its MPs and members are preoccupied with the idea that a new leader can “unite” the party and then the country.

First of all, Labour is now composed of at least two, I would say three blocs, with different core socio-political beliefs. Apart from that, what country is Labour (of all parties) going to “unite”? The blacks and browns in the cities? The white English who are not just, in part, “left behind” but also —more usually— disrespected and ignored? The so-called “progressive”, “me-too” and “refugees welcome” idiots who usually refer to (other) white people as “gammon” or “gammons” (though they would die rather than call a black man a “nig”, or even simply call a Jew a Jew!)?

In reality, the UK is not even split, it’s fissured along many social, age-related, racial, ethnic, ideological lines. Labour is incapable, coming as it does out of a very specific set of circumstances in the late 19th/early 20th centuries, of adapting to this multiform UK. The “Conservatives” have not adapted much either, but so far have managed to concentrate most of their support in what could be termed, very generally,  “white people over 60 years of age in the Southern part of the UK”.

Something those under the age of, say, 25 should be shown, especially if they are followers of Greta Nut (Greta Thunberg)…

The international “System” will do anything, say anything, suppress anything so long as the reality is hidden: that the world simply has too many people and particularly too many non-European people.

Tweet about Belgium and also about Ukraine

From a couple of months ago, but just seen:

A bit like the UK, where there is an an enormously disproportionate Jewish presence in politics, law, business leadership, television, radio, Press, publishing, yet the masses are told —by that same (((controlled and/or influenced))) msm— about the allegedly huge “antisemitism” in the UK! Even the Cabinet is now basically a pack not only of Jews and part-Jews but of non-Jews who are completely in the pocket of the Israel lobby.

Britain today, British “Conservatism” today…

Take a look at this personification of much of what is wrong in the UK:

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

His degree was in Zoology and he then obtained a doctorate focussing on the mating habits of the common pheasant. His next step was to get his first job, aged 26, working as a journalist (for 8 years). He then became a director of a bank, Northern Rock, which, in 2008, was the first British bank to fail by reason of a bank run in 150 years (it was nationalized and then sold off in pieces to protect investors).

I suppose that a casual reader of such a CV might say, “what a clever man, to be a zoologist and journalist and then become director of a bank!” Well, not really, when you learn that his father had been a Northern Rock board member for 30 years and eventually Chairman, leaving just before Matt Ridley joined…

“Under the chairmanship of Matt Ridley, Northern Rock had a business plan which involved borrowing heavily in the UK and international money markets, extending mortgages to customers based on this funding, and then re-selling these mortgages on international capital markets, a process known as securitisation. In August 2007, when the global demand from investors for securitised mortgages was falling away, the lack of money raised by this meant that Northern Rock became unable to repay loans from the money market. This problem had been anticipated by the financial markets, which drew greater attention to it. On 14 September 2007, the bank sought and received a liquidity support facility from the Bank of England, to replace funds it was unable to raise from the money market. This led to panic among individual depositors, who feared that their savings might not be available should Northern Rock go into receivership. The result was a bank run – the UK’s first in 150 years – where depositors lined up outside the bank to withdraw all of their savings as quickly as possible, particularly since everyone else was doing the same.” [Wikipedia].

In 2007, I was still a practising barrister. One day, I had just finished a contractual dispute involving boatbuilding at Southampton. I exited Southampton County Court to see something unusual: across the street, a Northern Rock branch, with a line of people outside. Right next door to Northern Rock, a branch (maybe a charity shop; I just saw the sign) of The Samaritans! I wish I had had a camera! I probably could have sold the photo to the national Press!

Away from reminiscence. So here we have Matt Ridley, trained in zoology, aged 36 and who has become a bank director (Chairman from 2002) by reason solely of family connection. To add to his other attributes, he is also a “libertarian” and an atheist. Oh dear…

Matt Ridley inherited a large estate in the North of England. It has been in his family’s ownership since the 17th Century (1698):

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

http://www.blagdonestate.co.uk/

http://www.blagdonestate.co.uk/about-blagdon/family-history

Matt Ridley is now causing a storm on Twitter because of his view that the past decade was the best ever.

If only everyone could inherit an estate and a fortune, become director of a bank (taking deposits from the public, at that) despite having no qualifications or experience whatever, run that bank into the ground, cost the country incredible amounts of money, yet face no personal penalty or sanction! If only everyone could be like that, the UK would be so much happier.

Having said that, I have been reading some tweets and other material about Matt Ridley. When it comes to scientific questions, he is interesting and may well be right in certain areas (e.g. re “Nature and Nurture”), but, like so many scientists (not to mention actors and others) becomes effectively an idiot as soon as he steps out of his magic circle into the realms of politics and, it seems, socio-economic policy.

Labour leadership

More black marks for Jess Phillips: she is pro-abortion, and is apparently endorsed by a few msm idiots such as James Corden (he tweeted in favour of her a year ago). She has given an interview to the joke “newspaper”, the Huffington Post:

https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/jess-phillips-labour-leadership_uk_5e20786ec5b673621f71c30c

She would “immediately” expel “anti-Semites”, apparently. For me, “anti-Semitism” is not a crime anyway (it is not a crime in England either, though many seem to have been brainwashed into thinking that it is). Seems that Jess Phillips believes in rights for Jews but not for “anti-Semitic” British people.

She would, it seems clear, actually expel Jeremy Corbyn from Labour! Oh, and she wants to bring back into Labour not only the disloyal Jewesses Luciana Berger and Louise Ellman, but also Fathead Chuka (Umunna)!

I like gardens, though not gardening! I very much like Monty Don’s odysseys across the history and geography of gardens. His Italian Gardens series was excellent. This latest series today included the Middleton Plantation in South Carolina, near to Charleston, where I once had colleagues. We had a small lunch and business meeting at that estate one weekend. Only about 6 or 7 people. I recall that I decided to go local, so ordered catfish and collard greens; you can’t get much more “Southern” than that!

Tempus fugit. Doesn’t seem like 18 years ago…

If music be the food of love, play on…

Labour leadership poll

I thought that it might be closer than that. Well, we shall see. Not that I care, so long as Jess Phillips and Lisa Nandy have no chance. I suppose that the Labour membership is thinking that a System figurehead such as ex-DPP Keir Starmer would not frighten the horses electorally. True, but he would also be a pretty dull choice. I am not sure how much Starmer really wants positive change, whereas Rebecca Long-Bailey does, not that my view of her is particularly kind either.

Diary Blog, 31 December 2019; and also my thoughts, on the final day of 2019

13 Comments

Well, here we are…not on Merry Christmas but (maybe) near Happy New Year. Time for a few stray thoughts about the year passing away, the year(s) ahead, and about where UK society and the world may be going.

I am going to be adding to this throughout the day, in a stream of consciousness way, not in any particular order or with any fixed structure.

Bush fires in Australia

As a child of 10-13, I lived in Sydney, on the North Shore (Mosman/Cremorne), in the late 1960s (2-3 years). I recall seeing bushfire damage in the Ku-ring-gai Chase area (many miles to the North) once or twice (may have been a controlled burn fire gap), but only once saw an actual bushfire, and that was when my family drove up to Queensland in 1968. Somewhere in the Northern coastal part of New South Wales. We drove through an area with fire on both sides of the highway (Australia had no motorways then outside Sydney). That cannot of course be compared to the almost apocalyptic pictures we now see on TV from NSW and Victoria.

Temperatures? Well, I do recall that, one day, in Sydney, the news was full of how the next day would be the hottest ever recorded in Sydney. I think it got to 112F (44C). One day only, as far as I can remember. I think that that was in December 1967 or January 1968. I see from Wikipedia that Sydney’s record high, more recently, is recorded as having been 45C. So not very different.

Where it is now different is that such extreme heat now seems to go on for weeks or even months. I have heard so from members of my family who have visited Sydney a number of times in the past 20 years or so (a few even live there). They have no doubt that Australia is far hotter now than it was in the late 1960s. As I say, it is now not a question of isolated very hot days but of relentless heat every year for months at a time.

No-one had aircon in their home then!

For me, the question of “climate change” or “global warming” resolves into:

  • Is the climate worldwide getting hotter?
  • Is human behaviour part (or even all) of the causation?
  • What if anything can be done to ameliorate the effects, or even halt the process?

For me (obviously not a scientist and/or “expert”), again, the answers (provisionally) seem to be:

  • There is evidence that there is a warming trend worldwide, but the evidence is far from conclusive;
  • Human behaviour may be part of the causative trigger, but is unlikely to be the whole or only reason why the Earth’s atmosphere etc is warming (assuming that it is);
  • Human behaviour might make a difference but only if the really large-scale industrial powers, with overwhelmingly huge populations, cease to exist or to exist in the way that they now do. I am talking about, mainly, China and India.

What I can be certain about is that ridiculous rants by the likes of Greta Thunberg, and the kind of pathetic sub-terrorism indulged in by Extinction Rebellion will achieve nothing at all. I have blogged about these already:

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/09/29/greta-thunberg-system-approved-wunderkind/

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/10/09/extinction-rebellion-greta-thunberg-cressida-dick-and-the-madness-of-protesting-crowds/

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/08/16/the-extinction-rebellion-levellers/

as I have about green politics and the connection to social nationalism:

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2016/11/17/social-nationalism-and-green-politics/

For me, it is clear that the problem is, at root, the huge human population on the Earth now, which is twice as large as it was even in 1970 and about twenty times what it was at the start of our present age (the Fifth Post-Atlantean) in or about 1400 AD.

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/01/26/the-tide-is-coming-in-reflections-on-the-possible-end-of-our-present-civilization-and-what-might-follow/

I feel that a huge “correction” in coming. In fact, I am rather glad that I shall probably be discarnate when it happens, though I do feel a responsibility, not to do anything to prevent it (I have no power to do so anyway), but to plant a seed which may one day burst into life as a new super-race and super-culture.

The collapse of the recent “climate change” summit was inevitable. The large polluting countries, chief among them China and India, cannot do enough (on the premise that cutting back on “emissions” actually helps), the USA will not do much, so the international System and the System msm concentrate on the peripheral issues, such as “emissions” of carbon from countries such as the UK, Australia etc. The UK only produces about 1% of global carbon “emissions” anyway, so it scarcely matters, in reality, what the UK does. That is even more true in respect of Australia.

Russia and “the West”

Russia today is not the Soviet Union. It is merely a large nation-state which sits somewhere between being a regional power and being a superpower.

The Soviet Union wanted to take over the world and certainly Europe in the 1920s, 1930s and even 1940s. By the 1950s, its leaders knew that that would probably never happen. Just as the Schlieffen Plan solidified into the trench warfare of the First World War after 1914, the revolutionary and later at least expansionist aspirations of the Soviet Union had solidified by the late 1940s into the Cold War rivalry with the US-led “West”. After 1989, that had all but stopped but was then replaced by a Russian-nationalist ideology.

As it now is, Russia is not going to invade Europe, but NATO is encircling (has encircled) Russia, and is pushing. Don’t push Russia too far. It now has hypersonic missiles and is years in advance of the Americans. The new missiles can hit American targets within 15 minutes.

“The general who oversees U.S. nuclear forces, Air Force Gen. John Hyten, said in February that hypersonic missiles can strike America within 15 minutes, half the time of ballistic weapons” [Bloomberg]

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-12-30/putin-s-hypersonic-nuclear-missile-stirs-fears-of-new-arms-race

The lesson is obvious: stop poking Russia with a sharp stick.

In terms of conventional arms too, if need be, Russia can place 4 million men in the field, and even its active forces dwarf those of Europe and are more effective as well. As for the Americans, they have technology and numbers, but do they have real will?

The New World Order tried to swallow Russia in the decade after 1989. It failed, thanks to the upsurge in Russian nationalism under Putin and also thanks to the Islamist upsurge.

Russia is unlikely to be the aggressor (in Europe) but do not underestimate its power.

Some people make the mistake of saying “Russia’s economy has fundamental weaknesses, therefore it is militarily weak”. A mistake made throughout history. The Medes and the Persians. The Spartans and the Persian Empire etc. Stalin said of the atom bomb, “we must have it even if we have to eat grass”…(cf. North Korea).

China

One of the jokes of recent years was the spectacle of the then UK Defence Secretary, Gavin Williamson, a former fireplace salesman, interrupting playing with his pet spider (yes, really…) to threaten both Russia and China with his meagre forces! What a total idiot! He even threatened to send one of Britain’s few (about 20) capital ships to the South China Sea! That would really frighten China, which has about 700 naval ships and submarines, and over 700 naval aircraft! Not to mention 255,000 sailors:

China is adding two new ships each month!

The UK, politically

I have blogged a great deal about the recent General Election. No point in regurgitating all that. Still, worth recalling that the 2019 Conservative vote only increased by 1.2 points over 2017. The Labour vote fell by 8 points. All the same, Corbyn did as well or better than Miliband or Brown, in national vote percentage terms, and not far short of Blair. Unfortunately for Corbyn, the national vote percentage is not the only factor.

The General Election of 2019 reinforced my view that Labour is now a niche party for the “blacks and browns” as well as public service people. It has no broad appeal. That however may change. Had only 18-24 y o voters voted, Labour would have captured almost all seats in England and Wales, and at least half of those in Scotland. The Conservatives would, by contrast, have no seats at all, not one. Is that a straw in the wind? Was 2019 the “last hurrah” for Labour, for the Conservatives, or for both?

The roots of the Conservatives in their new Northern seats are very shallow. Look at Hartlepool, a Labour seat even now. Labour received over a third of the vote, but both Con and Brexit Party over a quarter. Volatile, like all of the North and Midlands now.

It is not beyond the bounds of possibility that Labour, if radical, could bounce back and, with new voters coming up and retired elderly ones dying, seize back the field, all but wiping out a Conservative Party which in some respect is as weak as Labour.

Free speech in the UK

A matter close to my heart.

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2018/05/30/one-mans-extremism-is-another-mans-struggle-for-liberty-and-justice/

In the last couple of years, we have seen Jez Turner (Jeremy Bedford-Turner) convicted and (incredibly) imprisoned merely for making a humorous reference to Jews in a public speech, and the satirical singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz convicted and briefly imprisoned (the matter is still in part under appeal as I write) for singing humorous songs!

See:https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/09/24/the-persecution-of-alison-chabloz-latest-news-from-the-kangaroo-courts/

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/02/13/alison-chabloz-the-fight-for-freedom-of-expression-goes-on/

Also see: https://alisonchabloz.com/

What we face in the UK is an intensification of the assault on free speech, which is actually now being placed in the hands of police supposedly investigating “terrorism”! One man was convicted in 2019 of putting up “neo-Nazi” stickers on lamp-posts. Sentence? 2.5 years! Another was imprisoned for 2 years merely for posting remarks o Twitter and Facebook. The judge in that case was unwise enough to say that the harsh punishment was “to deter others”. A poundland Judge Jeffreys…

Etc

There is a huge amount still to say, but no more time today.

Happy New Year.

Homes for hens?

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/animal-lover-raises-2400-36-21167718

A nice story, but also one which highlights how living creatures are treated as disposable commodities in our society.

Another point is that, in times of distress or trouble, these creatures will be very useful to humans on the micro-level. A basic thing for prepping.

The DEFRA regulations (applicable in the UK) are that anyone can keep up to 50 chickens without having to register the flock and then maybe have to comply with various regulations. Some countries are more restrictive if the area is deemed “residential” (eg Australia allows only 6 chickens per “residential area” property).

Chickens are a useful food source (meaning that they supply eggs). I understand that a hen foraging for itself will lay about one egg every day or two, so an average-size family could get more than enough eggs from fewer than a dozen hens.

A useful fact to know is that it is not necessary to feed chickens commercially-sold chickenfeed such as corn (maize), millet or other grain. A small number of chickens can forage for themselves in a fairly small area. They also like boiled leftover human food such as potato, carrot etc, especially if mashed.

nb. Feeding “catering waste” to chickens is now banned in the UK, but that does not apply to household leftovers fed to the household’s own birds not for sale to the public.

Out in Indiaahhh…

Homelessness in the UK

In other news, Robert Jenrick is a ridiculous, greasy little pissant…

[Ah, I should have guessed…just saw this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Jenrick#Personal_life]

Eco-systems

Saw this today. Interesting.

Kazakhstan air crash

When I first went to Kazakhstan in 1996, the runway of the airport at Almaty (former Alma-Ata, the capital city at the time) was very short. Before landing, the pilot advised all passengers to adopt the crash position (head between or towards knees, and arms braced on seat in front), though he was good enough to explain why, and that we were not actually about to crash. The landing itself was rather sudden, with much braking and swerving and engine noise.

That was then. Since then, Almaty airport burned down, was rebuilt, the main runway increased in length (I believe); also, the capital was moved to Astana, which has now been renamed Nur-Sultan (the first name of the President, Nazarbaev, who was even in office when I lived in Almaty, 22-23 years ago!). Nur-Sultan has a harsher climate than Almaty. It is the second-coldest capital in the world in winter, with a record low of nearly -55C.

Something else just noticed

Horrible creatures of evil crowing because “their” manipulations lost Labour the election (or made any —arguably— inevitable loss much worse):

Below, a good example of that which the (ironically, a Jew) inventor of the fraudulent “psycho-analysis” claptrap (a pseudo-science), Sigmund Freud, called “transference”:

Time for a cultural purge in the UK

Look at this anecdote told by ghastly old half-Jewess Sharon Osbourne [nee Levy]:

People are shocked:

https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/showbiz-tv/sharon-osbournes-vile-would-lie-17481274

https://edition.cnn.com/2019/12/27/entertainment/sharon-osbourne-house-fire-assistant-video-trnd/index.html

…but not the panellists or audience. No, that degenerate pack of “me too” rabbits were all laughing and clapping at the harridan’s “anecdote”. For them it was funny. In ancient Rome, torture of animals and people in the arena was funny.

In our unfree country, I am not allowed to publish what I think should be done to all those in that studio, laughing at the economic and psychic exploitation of the employee in question. You, my readers, will have to imagine what I think should happen.

What I can say is that the UK needs a real and deep cultural purge, starting with the “celebrities”, the TV “comedians”, the whole radio, TV and print mafia.

Here’s another example of why Britain needs a cultural purge, in fact a cultural revolution:

In fact, that magazine, Teen Vogue, has in the past printed material supporting mentally-disturbed “antifa” bastard and violence-inciter Mike Stuchbery, who was quite falsely puffed in the magazine as an “historian”…I wonder what sort of (((people))) run Teen Vogue? I think that we can guess: “them”.

Re. Stuchbery, I have previously blogged:

Foxhunting

While the fox-hunt is a colourful spectacle, redolent of Old England, Trollope, Surtees, Galsworthy, Evelyn Waugh etc, it is now morally and socially indefensible.

If the hunts are unwilling to move to pure draghunting, they must be closed down forever.

“Manchurian Candidates”

That, above, is in the USA. What about the UK?

I have often mused, in the past decade or so especially, about how and especially why the UK population seems so supine.

  • Cut real pay back hugely? No reaction.
  • Destroy the Welfare State bit by bit? No great interest or resistance.
  • Make people work unpaid hours, whole days, be “on call” evenings and weekends? People just accept it (and I don’t mean just doctors, emergency personnel etc. People who work for undistinguished colleges, office bods really, etc…).
  • Close down 300+ courts, many hundreds of police stations, 500+ public libraries? Not worth resisting, it seems.
  • No free speech? No-one interested.
  • Continuing invasion of the UK by black/brown (etc) hordes (13 million in 22 years)? Not of much interest to the majority, despite the fact that pay, benefits, housing, transport, public security etc are all negatively affected, and hugely so.

What the hell is going on?

What Is Under Our Feet?

3 Comments

I was just reading this:

https://futurism.com/2018-looking-back-century

The perhaps vulgar term “futurology” is better than the publication’s chosen one (“futurism”, which is easily confused with, well, “Futurism”…  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Futurism)

“We can take coal out of a mine, but we can never put it back. We can draw oil from subterranean reservoirs, but we can never refill them again. We are spendthrifts in the matter of fuel and are using our capital for our running expenses. In relation to coal and oil, the world’s annual consumption has become so enormous that we are now actually within measurable distance of the end of the supply. What shall we do when we have no more coal or oil!” [Alexander Graham Bell, speaking in 1917].

We see from the above that even the greatest inventive minds often predict incorrectly. “Peak oil” has been predicted for over a century. The only certainty is that any specified commodity is limited in quantity, at least on this planet.

There again, the reality is that, for all human exploration and scientific discovery, we do not know a great deal for sure about what lies under our feet. The deepest mines in the world go only about 2.5 miles from the surface of the Earth, while the deepest natural caves go not even as deep as that.

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

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

Of course, most of us “know”, having read it, or been told it at school, that the Earth is composed, at most basic, of Crust, Mantle, and Core. The Crust is supposed to be between 20-30 miles thick (Continental; Oceanic 3-6 miles). Some estimates say 43.5 miles at thickest.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth%27s_crust

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

The deepest mine is 2.5 miles deep (it is planned to go 1-2 miles deeper). So the deepest below the surface any human being has actually been is maybe 3 miles, whereas the Continental crust is as much as 43.5 miles. So human beings have only been one-seventeenth (or one-fifteenth) as deep as the extent of even the crustal zone of the Earth.

The deepest boreholes on Earth still go only about 8 miles deep:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travel_to_the_Earth%27s_center

Human ideas of what lies below the Crust rely on a mixture of observation, analogy, mathematical, physical and chemical experimentation, surmise, and simple speculation. The deeper the layer, the less is actually known.

“The inner core was discovered in 1936 by Inge Lehmann and is generally believed to be composed primarily of iron and some nickel.

The liquid outer core surrounds the inner core and is believed to be composed of iron mixed with nickel and trace amounts of lighter elements.

Recent speculation suggests that the innermost part of the core is enriched in gold, platinum and other siderophile elements.[29]” [Wikipedia]

Note the language: “is generally believed to be“, “is believed to be“, “recent speculation suggests that…” and so on. That is not to disparage the immense amount of work done by highly intelligent and qualified persons, but the bottom line is that they do not know.

We have seen that human intrusion into the Earth, even remotely (via drill) goes only 8 miles deep. The radius of the Earth is taken to be 3,963 miles. So humans have only penetrated 1/495th into the Earth (and by actual human visitation, 1/1321). We do not really know what is there.

There have been alternative views of what lies deep in the Earth. Rudolf Steiner postulated a number of layers (I think nine) under the surface:

https://www.bookdepository.com/Interior-Earth-Rudolf-Steiner/9781855841192

He claimed to be aware of these layers via his clairvoyant gifts.

There is no conclusion to this brief article. I just wanted to remind myself and others that there is a huge amount that we do not yet know about the way our world is.

Extinction Rebellion, Greta Thunberg, Cressida Dick and The Madness of Protesting Crowds

152 Comments

BekVduHIIAAj-ug

Above, we see an illustration of the Mad Hatter’s Tea Party from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, a scene which could be applied to a multiplicity of situations of the present day; in this case, to the Extinction Rebellion protests which have brought parts of London to a halt (again).

I have blogged, in recent months, about both Extinction Rebellion and the connected silliness of the Greta Thunberg hullabaloo; prior to that, I also blogged about the present and possibly upcoming environmental catastrophe, as well as the connection between “green” politics and what might be termed “social nationalism”:

A selection of tweets

Those robed women (some are men in drag) give me the creeps; reminiscent of the women fanatics adherent to the ISIS barbarians. Sinister, and obviously meant to intimidate. Greta Nut must love them.

https://twitter.com/DVATW/status/1181883555028328448?s=20

[the speaker there, above, is one of the founders and leaders of Extinction Rebellion, a former farmer or smallholder called Hallam]

https://twitter.com/billysubway/status/1181708019467464706?s=20

The above tweeter, apparently a recent graduate from Cambridge presently trying to be (yet another) singer, seems to have just wasted three or four years [2020 note: since I drafted and published this article, I have discovered that Billy Lunn is about 35-40 and that his group has had some, albeit limited, success in the music business: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Subways#Discography].

These and similar street protests achieve nothing; only unthinking student-types (or other people, of any age, who do not want to think too deeply) imagine that they might. The judgmental attitude is very much of the present time. Akin to the fanaticism of the 17th Century.

Another tweeter (see below), talks about repression of those “expressing dissent”. Since when was closing down cities, interfering with aviation etc, mere “dissent”? I do not know this tweeter and had in fact never heard of him before today. I wonder whether he spoke up for me (disbarred because a pack of malicious Jews disapproved of my “expression of dissent” in tweets)? Or for Alison Chabloz (persecuted, prosecuted and convicted after effectively the same pack of Jews targeted her for years, all for singing satirical songs that came a bit too close to the truth about “holocaust” fakery)? I have seen nothing, either from that tweeter or from the many similar ones, protesting against such repression of free speech. Au contraire…

https://twitter.com/okdaithi/status/1181834925969833984?s=20

And here, below, is a typical “millennial” idiot, incapable of saying why he has superglued himself to a roadway except by repeating, “it’s about, like, saving the planet, like…” —and, yes, odds-on that some “university” has awarded him a “First” in something or other (just like almost everyone else) or will do so…and note the anger at the end of his inarticulate “explanation”. He may not know his **** from his elbow, but by God he wants to impose his ill-directed will on someone (or anyone)…

It’s not only in London. Here, below, we see one of the protests in Australia, in this case Melbourne. Guess what these scenes of ridiculously-puerile pseudo-ecstasy are doing to stop “climate change”? Nothing.

And here’s yet another one (see below), again an Australian, who thinks that he and his friends have the right to do what they want to make a useless noise and to interfere with others because climate change is (or may be) happening and is (or may be) a result of “emissions”. What do such protests do to stop whatever may be happening, happening? Nothing…

MSM news reports

News reports say that the police are stretched to breaking point by the “protests”:

The Metropolitan Police response to the Extinction Rebellion protests

It was noteworthy that, months ago when Central London was first closed down by Extinction Rebellion, the police response was pathetic. More than that, there were some police officers appearing to enjoy themselves and dancing with the protesters! This is one result of the slow but advancing politicization of the police and other public services. As far as the police are concerned, we have seen how police forces have attempted to police social media, including expression of “politically incorrect” opinion. By way of example, the Jew-Zionist lobby has actively infiltrated the police. The “influence” seems to be strongest in London, Manchester and Scotland.

Here below we see Commissioner of Metropolitan Police, Cressida Dick, socializing with sinister Jewish Zionist Gideon Falter, who heads the malicious faux-“charity”, the “Campaign Against Anti-Semitism” or “CAA” (private thought-police):

Falter seems to be welcome at Scotland Yard despite the fact that several of his colleagues at the CAA have been exposed in open court as serial and would-be anonymous online trolls, sadistically taunting and persecuting anti-Zionists, and particularly women.

Falter also has other Zionist activities going on…

As for Cressida Dick, she has been accused of being a so-called “graduate” (member) of another sinister group, Common Purpose, a kind of politically-correct freemasonry:

Cressida Dick’s connection is now denied, though it has been admitted in the past:

What else about Cressida Dick?

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

A double-first from Oxford (she herself, not her degree): the first woman and the first lesbian to head the Metropolitan Police, which is less and less effective against real crime (which is exploding in London) but ever-more active against political dissent online etc, ever-more in the Jewish-Zionist pocket, ever more political in its judgments.

It was very strange to see the police non-response to the first big Extinction Rebellion protest (attack on London) months ago. Much criticism about the police uselessness attached (again…) to Cressida Dick personally. In this second protest, many more arrests have been made (at last count, over 600) but those arrested are mostly bailed and most of those come straight back to the streets…

There is something not quite right here. Just as Greta Thunberg suddenly has world leaders pretending to listen to her, the msm laying down a red carpet for her etc, and just as we see migrant-invaders supposedly “intercepted” in the Channel, or Mediterranean, but really helped to invade mainland Europe and UK, so with these protests we see the authorities in reality facilitating them while pretending to crack down on them. What is the agenda behind all this. Cui bono?

Update, 10 October 2010

Where does real civil disorder start? When does dictatorship start to be the demand of the people, because it at least cures disorder? Somewhere, somewhen like this (below): a smug, entitled and (?) affluent “passenger” who has clearly bought himself an air ticket at London City Airport (and is dressed unlike the usual “protester”-type) so that he can interfere with takeoff of a flight, on behalf of Extinction Rebellion. Note the generally compliant/submissive attitude of most passengers at first, which then changes, with some, to a demand that “something be done” about this selfish nuisance; some people look ready to smash the ****’s face in, but the cultural conditioning to be polite, non-violent and (in this case at an airport) to rely on the persons in nominal authority (in this case, the cabin crew) keeps the lid on— just. For how long, though?

Meanwhile, the Extinction Rebellion hysteria meets a cool interview style from Andrew Neil:

This is the sort of madness that thrives when supposedly serious political figures (below, the Jew Ed Miliband, one-time Labour Party leader, Layla Moran MP, and pro-Israel “Conservative” Cabinet minister and expenses fraudster Michael Gove) listen enraptured (or pretend to listen) to a mentally-afflicted Swedish autistic aged 16 and three quarters…

Below, the sort of idiot and idiocy abroad today: the citizens of London (or anyone critical of nonsense posing as idealism) have to “sit the fuck down and be quiet” because Extinction Rebellion is “stopping Armageddon” and that “cause” justifies anything.

and (see below) in Australia, it seems that “fighting for the most important cause in human history” involves some exhibitionistic women and gay narcissists doing those synchronized dance routines you see at some American political protests:

What interests me increasingly about all this is the degree of support that Extinction Rebellion is getting, not from the general public (the “protest” has little support there, if only because the public can see that “XR” has no real ideas but just negative emotionalism to offer; the public sees the futility, hypocrisy and silliness of the protests) but from those System drones involved in the manipulation of public opinion. I have seen numerous pro or effectively-XR tweets from CEOs of public relations and “comms” firms, from known political commentators etc. Here’s one:

Once again, I wonder what is really behind all of this.

He will have to spend the rest of his life atoning for his sin…or blaming other people, if old and white…) spews in Trafalgar Square the hate he has been taught, the hate against those “old white guys” who have, he has been told, “stolen his future”. Yes, the “old white guys” who, together with other white people, created almost everything of value in the past 1,000 or more years.

That brainwashed little boy will become yet another depressed and self-hating white man (unless he wakes up at some point). One does not, necessarily, expect a boy of his age to understand that white Northern European civilization is not the cause of “climate change” (leaving aside the question of whether it is happening and whether human activity is the cause of whatever is happening). The main human activity to blame for environmental catastrophe is breeding, i.e. too many people— and the non-whites have increased their numbers hugely both in absolute terms and relative to Europeans (white people) in the past century.

World population was almost flat for nearly 2,000 years until 1700 AD. Even in 1900 it was only about 1.6 billion. Now, in 2019, it is nearly 8 billion.

There are twice as many humans on Earth in 2019 as there were in 1970, when I myself was 13-14 years old. White Northern European people, the spearhead of positive evolution, are now a tiny percentage of the world population.

The problem is not modern technology and industry, but too many people and, particularly, too many non-white people.

Rewilding and Reafforestation of Parts of the UK

3 Comments

An extract from an article of 2013 by George Monbiot:

“You could argue that an intensification of farming is a response to rising population pressure: the need to produce more food has caused greater damage to wildlife. But this is where the madness kicks in: much of the habitat destruction for which farm policies are responsible has little or nothing to do with producing food.

The uplands of Britain are astonishingly unproductive. For example, 76% of the land in Wales is devoted to livestock farming, mostly to produce meat. But, astonishingly, by value Wales imports seven times as much meat as it exports. Six thousand years of nutrient stripping and erosion have left our hills so infertile that their productivity is miniscule. Even relatively small numbers of livestock can now keep the hills denuded.

Without subsidies, almost all hill-farming would cease. That’s not something I’m calling for, but I do believe it’s time we began to challenge the system and its outcomes. Among them is a policy that’s almost comically irrational and destructive.

The major funding that farmers receive is called the single farm payment, which is money given by European taxpayers to people who own land. These people receive a certain amount (usually around £200 or £300), for every hectare they own. To receive it, they must keep the land in what is called “Good Agricultural and Environmental Condition” (GAEC). It’s a term straight out of 1984.

Among the compulsory standards in the GAEC rules is “avoiding the encroachment of unwanted vegetation on agricultural land”. What this means is that if farmers want their money they must stop wild plants from returning. They don’t have to produce anything: to keep animals or to grow crops there. They merely have to prevent more than a handful of trees or shrubs from surviving, which they can do by towing cutting gear over the land.

If they want to expand the area eligible for this subsidy, and therefore make more money, they must get their tractors out and start clearing vegetation. From my kayak in Cardigan Bay I have often watched a sight that Neolithic fishermen would have witnessed: towers of smoke rising from the hills as the farmers burn tracts of gorse and trees in order to claim more public money. The single farm payment is a perfectly designed scheme for maximum ecological destruction.”

[Why Britain’s Barren Uplands Have Farming Subsidies To Blame, George Monbiot, The Guardian]

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/georgemonbiot/2013/may/22/britain-uplands-farming-subsidies

George Monbiot is quite right about subsidized farming. In relation to the upland and hill areas [relatively similar areas, but often taken to be different in terms of specific UK farming conditions: https://www.nationalsheep.org.uk/know-your-sheep/uk-sheep-farming/], the farming lobby will say that the land there is only suitable for sheep, so if the UK wants to produce food at a maximized level, then sheep farming is essential and can only exist if subsidized.

There are various aspects to all this, most of which are addressed in the George Monbiot article (above). The upland/hill areas are not very productive (generally, the higher they are above sea level, the less productive); they can support food animals other than sheep, in principle (deer, highland cattle, game birds etc) if not denuded of vegetation; the upland and hill farmers are only surviving by reason of a fairly generous (they might disagree) but environmentally-mad subsidy system.

In broad terms, the single farm payment gives the farmer on average about £150 an acre (2019 value), so a small farmer (and most UK upland and hill farms are small), who has about 200 acres, will get about £30,000 in subsidy (leaving aside the various official or other definitions of what constitutes a “subsidy”— see Notes, below). The actual net profit from farming itself on such a farm comes to something like £3,000, maybe even less. It’s minimal. Some farmers have only 100 acres, thus reducing their subsidy-income to maybe £15,000 and their real farming income to as little as £1,500.

The conclusion, surely, is that subsidies should be eliminated. They are disastrous for wildlife, give the country little in terms of food production and in fact give the already-wealthy farmers on the more favoured lowlands the bulk of the money (a large estate of say 10,000 acres might receive as much as £1,500,000 a year in EU subsidy). However, this article is about rewilding and reafforestation, not an overview of the whole agricultural sector.

There are UK and EU “subsidies” or grants for such activities as tree planting, but these are far less generous than the ones given for (nominal or actual) farming.

It seems harsh, on the face of it, that small farmers should face having to give up their way of life (in some cases, a way of life that has generations of history and custom behind it), but they will have been preceded after all by those working in other sectors, including coal mining, steel production etc, and now retail work. Why should huge amounts of public money be provided to farmers just because they bleat that without the money they cannot survive and would have to get other work?

The irony is that most farmers vote “Conservative” and are among those most ready to talk about “welfare” “scroungers” etc! It often seems to me that farmers generally want it both ways, to receive money from public funds merely as an entitlement for being holders of land (either freeholders or tenants), but on the other hand want no official interference with how they farm, because they run private businesses!

It has long been accepted that the farming lobby, and especially the National Farmers’ Union (NFU) is one of the most effective lobby groups in UK politics at national level.

Alternative uses for marginal land

After WW1, the UK was almost denuded of forest, having only 5% cover. The government set up the Forestry Commission in 1919 to address the domestic timber shortage, rather than for aesthetic or environmental reasons. Thus were born the typical blocks of forest seen in Northern England, Scotland, Wales: mostly Norway Spruce and Sitka Spruce. Though better than nothing, such coniferous reafforestation does not do much for wildlife, though the trees themselves can be, if not cut, longlasting (a Norway Spruce in Sweden may be the oldest —though regenerated— tree on Earth, dating back nearly 10,000 years).

The forest cover in the UK has increased markedly since 1919, to about 13% of land. The Forestry Commission itself and its now-devolved Scottish equivalent manage nearly 2 million acres of forest and, in some areas, have replanted with broadleaf trees which will encourage a greater biodiversity.

In addition, there have been a few large-scale initiatives formulated and put into action. There are a number of “community forests” (some created from bits and pieces of land) not all in public ownership but all of which have some public access: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_forests_in_England

The Heart of England Forest (mostly in Warwickshire) is one superb initiative, the vision of one man, the late Felix Dennis [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Dennis].

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

https://www.heartofenglandforest.com/

Another new wooded belt is the National Forest, planted in a number of linked areas North East of Birmingham:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_National_Forest_(England)

https://www.nationalforest.org/

In addition, some very large and altruistic landowners, such as a Dane who owns over 220,000 acres in Scotland alone (over a dozen Highland estates), have exciting plans both for reafforestation and for wildlife recovery, even to the extent of importing wolves, lynx, bears, beavers etc.

There are many smaller projects around, such as the wood created by Brian May, the Queen guitarist, in Dorset, being planted and growing on land May bought as a gift in trust, and which was originally going to be a housing estate (nb. were Britain not flooded with unwanted immigrants and their offspring, it would not be thought “necessary” to build on beautiful areas of countryside).

Forests are not a waste of land…

George Monbiot has written about how upland forests and woods (or even areas of smaller vegetation such as bushes) delay the passage of rainwater to lower levels, protecting those lower levels from destructive floodwater.

Wild areas can provide food for people. Not just game animals, birds and fish (if permitted and/or in time of dire necessity), but mushrooms, fruits, wild vegetables etc.

Forests not only have amenity and aesthetic value, but are havens for wildlife of all types. In particular, the parts of the country that are relatively marginal for farming should be far more heavily wooded than they are. Animals, birds, fish, insects all thrive, given half a chance.

There are huge areas of the UK suitable for rewilding and/or re-afforestation. Not only in Scotland. Wales is especially blessed with upland and hill areas suitable for such projects. There are parts of England also suitable, such as the South West peninsula, within which there are areas where the population is surprisingly sparse, such as the Hartland Peninsula in West Devon, on the Atlantic coast. It is true also of the moors of Devon and Cornwall, but they tend at present to be under National Park or other restrictive control.

Rewilding and reafforestation are not inimical to the livelihoods of existing local people, who can derive benefit via catering to tourists, managed and sustainable forestry, wildlife protection jobs etc; whereas the present land use often benefits only small groups of farmers and landowners (via subsidies, and/or via the use of land for commercial driven shoots).

Rewilding is not just a matter of afforestation. Other types of landscape can also be rewilded: marshes, river estuaries etc. However, the forest is the key, whether it be managed forest or forest left to grow completely wild.
