I have heard nothing as yet about what I apprehend will be Alison’s appeal to the Crown Court from the verdict and sentence handed down by a single magistrate —aka District Judge (Criminal)— on 31 March 2021. Her solicitors and trial Counsel will also, as I believe, be applying for bail pending hearing of such appeal.
In the meantime, Alison has now served over a week of what is effectively an 8-week sentence (18 weeks, of which 9 weeks would normally be spent incarcerated, but minus time spent in court at trial and in preliminary hearings, and also minus time spent in police custody, with part-days counted as full days).
Anyone wishing to send letters, cards, books etc to Alison Chabloz should write or send to:

Slightly underwhelming, but it is a start, anyway…when I was at school, and about 14 years old, I sketched out buildings and developments rather like that, in fact more radical and green than the one shown. That was around 1971. Still, Rome was not built in a day…

Perhaps so, but if the idea was to prevent “subversives” from taking over the BBC or heavily infiltrating it, the policy was a signal failure in the wider sense. The BBC, at the head of the UK msm, has been the flagship for the socio-political collapse of Britain, and has supported every rotten cause of the past 50 years.
The most necessary thing in the UK is not even, as a first step, a political purge, but a purge of the mainstream media in general. Not just lying news media and “journalist” scribblers but, inter alia, the whole range of “celebrities”, comedians, show business types etc.
Some readers have assumed that I must have or had a personal dislike of Hendron. Not so. In fact, I had never even heard of him until I read about his Old Bailey trial, very lenient sentence, and his even more lenient treatment by the Bar Disciplinary Tribunal(s) before which he subsequently appeared.
My animus, if such it be (and incredulity), is a result of the incredible difference between the way in which I was treated (for having tweeted 5 tweets, completely true and accurate and [but] hostile to Jews or at least Jewish influence) and Hendron’s treatment for his egregious defaults, as chronicled. Read my blog post.
I also found it incredible, reading his tweets, that Hendron seemed incapable of thinking and writing logically, or of constructing a literate English sentence. However, the Bar is now a dustbin, so what more can I say? If the Bar thinks that it is OK to have, as practising barrister, someone of Hendron’s type, unable to write or argue coherently, and of (in several ways) dubious character, then that is a matter for the Bar dustbin-profession as it now is.
Now I see this: https://www.legalfutures.co.uk/latest-news/high-court-overturns-barristers-suspension-due-to-lacuna. It turns out that Hendron had his lenient Bar sanction made even more lenient by reason of the fact that, being already suspended at the time of the proceedings, the Tribunal had no power to notionally suspend him further, or indeed apply ay sanctions to him, because he was not a “regulated person” at the time.
I had an exemplary record as a barrister, received several judicial commendations, was mentioned favourably in the main legal directories, and was never suspended from practice, but when the Jewish lobby (“UK Lawyers for Israel”, nominally) instigated my disbarment (complaint 2014, disbarment late 2016), I had not been in practice since 2008, and had not had a Bar “practice certificate” since that time. The disbarment was a completely politically-motivated msm farce orchestrated by a pack of Zionist Jews (“UK Lawyers for Israel”, many of whom also belong to the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” who have persecuted Alison Chabloz for years).
At the said proceedings (more specifically, in the considerable documentation that preceded the actual hearing), I made the point that I had not been “regulated” since 2008 (a point, I might add, that Hendron, in his own case, missed…the Counsel instructed by the Bar Standards Board —very honestly— raised it against his own interest).
I was (wrongfully) disbarred (on that basis and in any case), but (to give them credit at least for that) the Bar Standards Board actually wrote to me a year or two after my highly-publicized hearing (Google “Ian Millard barrister” and read what the msm said about me at the time). The BSB then gave me the chance to apply to have my disbarment overturned, on a basis akin to that of Hendron. I suppose that must have been somehow connected with the internal Bar fallout from Hendron’s matter.
In other words, I would still be a barrister today, had I applied. However, for me, there would have been little point, I having had no intention to resume Bar practice, though I suppose that it would have denied the Jew-Zionist pack and their “antifascist” “useful idiots” the opportunity to describe me on Twitter, frequently, and with unsurprising lack of originality, as “disgraced and disbarred barrister Ian Millard” or, as at least one mentally-disturbed Jewish woman often does, on Twitter, as “disbarred Barista“! Well, if I say so myself, I do make a rather good cup of coffee, though I have never done so as a paid occupation…
As far as the egregious Hendron is concerned, his travails continue, and he is at present again before a Bar Disciplinary Tribunal. I believe that it presently stands adjourned.
I had thought that Hendron was being given very lenient treatment because either he was (I assumed) from a very privileged background, or that he “knew too much” about illicit activities of senior members of Bar and Bench. Well, I read somewhere that Hendron went to some comprehensive school, so that would only seem to leave the “knows too much” theory…
I actually did not know, until yesterday, that supermarkets are open on Good Friday now. The materialistic 24/7 multikulti society…
@attiscusfinch104. They do not *forget*. They understand that they now serve the state, not the people. That's been the outcome, if not always the purpose, of police reforms for the past 60 years. Mainly this happened because those who should have prevented it, failed to do so. https://t.co/GAoTIdJS6g
…and much of the State and society generally in the UK has now been suborned by the “you-know-whos”…look at the Alison Chabloz saga of the past few years; look at the BBC and other msm output, as well.
Well, there it is— the new multikulti panicdemic UK police state, staffed by toytown police drones. Notionally done “for good reasons”, the police and others no doubt imagine…
1/2 The police invasion (on a Covid pretext) of a Good Friday devotion at an RC Church in Balham (apparently with a Polish congregation) must open everyone's eyes to the fact that this is no longer a Christian country.

I'm blocked by @thealiceroberts ,I think because I once won an argument with her abt schools. I'd just like to say 'Thank you' to her for showing once again that so much (not all, but a lot) of atheism is driven by insecurity and hostility. I should know, I used to be an atheist.
As with Professor Brian Cox, there are two sorts of “famous scientists”, the ones who make new discoveries and undertake research of importance, and those who are basically people making careers and money out of appearing on TV, radio, in print, and on official committees. Incidentally, if anyone knows of any great discoveries made by either Brian Cox or Alice Roberts (the latter of whom I had not heard until 5 minutes ago), please let me know and I shall publish a few lines about it. I should not wish to be unfair. I do not wait with bated breath, however.
Yes, but…Monsieur Rentoul, those other crises were not used as a method of bringing in a police state by stealth. The Great Reset and the Great Replacement (etc). The “panicdemic” is being so used, and not only in the UK.
Well, this week I got 6/10, thus again beating John Rentoul who scored 5/10. I did not know the answers to questions 4, 6, 7, and 9 (and had to rack my brains to get question 10).
When I lived in Kazakhstan, in 1996-97 (a full year), I invited a friend at the Bar (let’s call him “Teddy”), a train buff par excellence, to visit me in Almaty (former Alma-Ata) by train. I found out what that would entail: a Eurostar journey from London to Paris or Brussels, then a train journey to Moscow, where he would have to change trains by going to another of Moscow’s several mainline stations. Then a 77-hour journey across the Russian countryside and then steppe to Almaty.
Like the character in, I think, one of Evelyn Waugh’s novels, Teddy thought that “abroad was bloody”, and told me that, because of his ideological opposition to the Channel Tunnel (I first heard of UKIP from him, maybe a year or two before a lady with whom I lunched told me about it), he would be unable to come. I think that the real reason was that he was nervous about negotiating his way across Moscow alone and with not a word of Russian; that, and the sheer discomfort of 77 hours on a post-Soviet express train. Thus Teddy missed out on seeing a then rather green and pleasant city full of pretty girls.
I quite like trains, though it does help, on a really long journey, if you are lucky enough to have the sort of accommodation used by the Tsars of all the Russias, or that of the Orient Express. When Andrei Sakharov was recruited to Stalin’s hydrogen bomb project, he travelled to the secret town where it was to be made aboard his own train car at the rear of a normal passenger train. The carriage contained a bedroom for Sakharov and his wife, a dining room, a kitchen operated by a cook, a lounge area, and accommodation for his several NKVD bodyguards (or should that just be “guards”?).
My own longest train journey was an involuntary one in the 1980s from Vienna to Ostend, and very uncomfortable it was. On the morning of the second day (departure having been in early evening), I got out at Cologne, wearing only a dressing gown, in order to buy pretzels on the platform. It was then that the train started to move. Had it not briefly stopped about 10 seconds later, giving me time to get aboard (non-central closing doors, thank God), I should have been stuck at Cologne Station with almost no money, no clothes, and no proper shoes; no passport either.

Once again, I look at a fairly old blog post, only to find that many of the embedded tweets have been expunged by Twitter, leaving just blank space. The death of free speech is here, pretty much.

Secondly, the scribbler of the main item writes: “She also mocked Anne Frank and laughed during her earlier trial [i.e. in 2018] as the court heard how she mocked Jews being fashioned into lampshades, having their heads shrunk and being turned into bars of soap.”
The scribbler is mistaken. Alison Chabloz did not “mock Anne Frank” but the largely-forged diary (written by Otto Frank after WW2) attributed to Anne Frank; that is something different. As to the nonsense about bodies of deceased Jews being made into soap, lampshades etc, these were originally “black propaganda” atrocity stories manufactured by a British propaganda unit during the First World War, and then, so to speak, recycled during the Second. Even the Zionists accept now that (in either war) neither happened. The same goes, I think, for the shrunken heads, though it may be that SS-Ahnenerbe possessed a few for scientific reasons: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahnenerbe.
As previously noted, Alison Chabloz is now at HMP Bronzefield (prison) near Heathrow Airport. She may be transferred eventually, that prison being designated for real criminals (“Category A”): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HM_Prison_Bronzefield. In any case, it may be possible for her to get out on bail pending appeal of the egregious and harsh sentence passed yesterday by a magistrate (aka “District Judge (Criminal)”).
Finally, I see that a mentally-disturbed Zionist Jewish woman is claiming that I have “taken over” a Twitter account which, she claims, is or was being used by Alison Chabloz.
The above claims are not true. Firstly, as far as I know, the Twitter account in question is not and never was operated by Alison Chabloz.
Secondly, I have not “taken over” or used (ever) that, or any other, Twitter account. I only ever had one Twitter account (@ianrmillard), and that was “suspended” (expelled/removed) by Twitter in 2018 at the instigation of a Jewish Zionist pack which (I believe) included the said woman.
Since mid-2018, I have not posted (under any name or guise) anything on Twitter. I hope that that clarifies the situation.
The sentencing makes Alison Chabloz the first person in the UK to be jailed specifically for Holocaust denial, under the terms of the 2003 Communications Act.
In fact, tweeter “@MarmiteMarmz” is scribbling rubbish: “Speaking in court yesterday, District Judge Michael Snow told Chabloz: ‘I’m not sentencing you on the basis that you are anti-Semitic, I’m not sentencing you on the basis that you are a Holocaust denier…I’m sentencing you on the basis that on two separate occasions whilst subject to a suspended sentence, you participated in a radio programme where you made grossly offensive comments.” [Daily Mail]
As a Crown Court judge said in a previous matter involving Alison Chabloz, neither “holocaust” “denial” nor “antisemitism” are crimes in England.
This is an example of the sort of “wildlife grid” that I have been suggesting for many years. Wildlife corridors and, eventually, a wildlife grid across the UK, becoming gradually more complex.

As for thick-as-two-short-planks Priti Patel, her “cunning plan” seems to be to try to discourage small-boat migration-invasion, while allowing in, on an even more lax basis, so-called “legal” immigrants of all kinds, including “asylum-seekers”.
The result of the above is that small-boat invaders will not be returned (anywhere) because most will destroy their papers and/or lie about their origins, while —at the same time— huge new waves of “legal” migration will come. That’s without even thinking about the (up to) 5 MILLION Hong Kong Chinese expected to arrive.
If you cannot see, even now, that this is all part of an international conspiratorial plan, you never will. The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan. The Great Replacement. The Great Reset.

The news that a piece of “digital art”, or electronic art, has been sold at auction for USD $69 million was puzzling. Apparently, such art can be copied for free, without any cost at all.
In other words, the $69,000,000 art can be replicated and used effectively without cost. This is not quite the same, or goes beyond, having a paper or other copy of, say, the Mona Lisa. Any copy of the Mona Lisa is probably subtly different from the real one, whereas (according to BBC Today Programme) the copy of the piece of “digital art” will be exactly the same as the original.
It seems that what is auctioned is not the digital art alone but the art plus an electronic key to the original, which allows the owner of that original to access the blockchain for it, blockchain being defined as follows:
“Blockchain is most simply defined as a decentralized, distributed ledger technology that records the provenance of a digital asset“; or
“In the simplest terms, Blockchain can be described as a data structure that holds transactional records and while ensuring security, transparency, and decentralization. You can also think of it as a chain or records stored in the forms of blocks which are controlled by no single authority” [and see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockchain].
In other words, what the purchaser has bought for his $69 million US dollars is the right to change the electronic artwork, just as the owner of the Mona Lisa or other material art has the legal right to add a moustache to the subject, or to take up an axe and chop it to pieces.
In fact, thinking about it, presumably the artwork, if copied by a third party for free, can also be changed for free (though not the accepted “original”). That means that the $69 million US dollars is buying only the notional ownership and nothing else.
The auction of of the $69 million artwork challenges our concept of value. To me, buying “digital art” for more than pennies is completely stupid, but I concede, if it is a concession, that paying out 69 million dollars for any artwork is absurd, even if that artwork were the (original) Mona Lisa or, say (a favourite of mine), Man in Armour by Rembrandt (believed by some to be a representation of Christian Rosenkreutz, said to have been modelled by Titus, son of Rembrandt).
Bitcoin can be sold back, i.e. cashed in, though its real world use is limited. “Digital art” can be sold on as well, if the owner of the art, i.e. holder of the blockchain key, can find a purchaser (in my opinion, mug) willing to take it on.
In my first blog post about Bitcoin, I examined money. Why do we value tokens of monetary value such as banknotes? It all comes down to confidence.
In the end, does Bitcoin have less “legitimacy” or “value” than paper banknotes, or electronic entries on the ledgers of known banks? Maybe not, but that is perhaps less a validation of Bitcoin than a criticism of what we call “money value”.
Has capitalism reached, with the auction of digital art (and, arguende, with the sale of “real” art for sometimes hundreds of millions), a stage of decadent absurdity which may be a predictor of worldwide economic and social collapse? For me, the crazed heights at auction (of both types of art) are a sign of poor judgment as much as anything.
It does make me wonder what kind of person would rather have a piece of digital art than USD $69 million! Does that make me a Philistine, or just not a mug?
Is there a case for artworks of designated importance, of more than a certain age (100 years plus?), and valued at more than a designated level, being held and owned only by specified museums and galleries around the world? It’s a idea (of my own), anyway, though of course that would not stop speculation in artworks of younger age (and we have seen works by many quite recent artists, including Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, even Damien Hirst, go for huge amounts). Neither, of course, would such regulation stop speculation in digital art, not for decades to come, anyway.
For me, this latest art speculation is a societal warning flag.

The odd logic of tweeter “@MenziesBj” reminds me of the similar thinking of not a few instructing solicitors when I was at the practising Bar. There is a phrase in use among barristers, “solicitors go elsewhere“, reflective of the fact that instructing solicitors often stop instructing particular Counsel for no obvious reason.
You would imagine that, if as a barrister you do well in a case, then the solicitor who instructed you would instruct you again, and if you did not do well, would not instruct you again. In fact, while that sometimes does happen, often the reverse is true. No-one knows why.
Barristers are, especially when not in the very top sets, very dependent on their own relationship with solicitors. I was once slightly acquainted with one barrister, in a friend’s chambers, who had a very good practice despite (my impression) being not particularly intelligent. 90% of his work (25 years ago) came from one solicitor (not even one firm, but one individual solicitor in one firm).
One fine day, as Kafka put it in The Trial, that solicitor stopped instructing him; according to that barrister, for no obvious reason. Result? A serious problem for the barrister, obviously. 90% of work gone means about 90% of income gone.
That (nameless) barrister was one of those men who combine a relentlessly politically-correct attitude with a certain amount of sex-pestery, as my friend in his then chambers had mentioned to me. Many years later, one of his pupils, a young woman, made an official complaint about him. I do not know all the details, but he was fined £4,000, and may have been lucky not to have been dealt with more severely.
A personal nexus between a solicitor and a barrister, though inherently precarious, can work in favour of a barrister. I knew another barrister, though not well, who was a member of another friend’s chambers. The former had a friend from university who had become a salaried lawyer in a large organization. That employed lawyer directed work to the barrister. In one year, such work totalled, in fees, some £600,000! That was nearly 30 years ago!
Not quite as good as winning the lottery (or being born into a fortune), but almost.

“Male curfew”
I missed this latest piece of crazed nonsense, which was being reported upon yesterday, it seems.
“A Green Party peer has suggested a 6pm curfew should be introduced for men in the wake of Sarah Everard’s disappearance.
Baroness Jones of Moulescoomb told the House of Lords that such a move would “make women a lot safer, and discrimination of all kinds would be lessened”.” [Sky News]
So she was an office bod for a number of years, became a mature student and then studied carbonized plant remains for a decade…oh, and she was a member of the pathetic London Assembly for 4 years, and failed to become an MP twice (in different London constituencies, coming 4th in both elections, getting 6.5% of the vote in one, then 2.9% in the other). She also tried to become Mayor of London, but only received about 4% of the overall vote.
Not a stellar political record, but hey!…this is the UK, where serial failure is rewarded so long as the idiot is “anti-racist” and/or (stand up, Boris-idiot!) pro-Israel. So she was elevated to the House of Lords!
Sometimes, I think that this country is terminally screwed.
Her previous utterances? Let’s see…”She was outspoken about numerous issues including what she called mayor Boris Johnson‘s demonisation of youth through the use of “baseless” rhetoric on “soaring gang-membership and rising knife-crime”, suggesting the mayor created an unhelpful climate of fear.[28] ” [Wikipedia].
As for her curfew idea…look at her!
Jesus H. Christ! If I saw that walking towards me after dark, I would go home at once, lock and bolt my door, and impose a curfew on myself!

British social-national revolution! We know in our hearts what has to happen.
“The number of white terrorism suspects being arrested in Britain has outstripped those of Asian appearance for the third year in a row.
Official figures show that 89 white people were arrested on suspicion of terror offences in 2020, compared with 63 Asian suspects, 15 black suspects and 18 of other ethnicities.“
“Almost one-third of arrests had resulted in a charge by the end of December.” [The Independent]
So only about 20 or 25 white British persons were charged (with something, but not necessarily “terrorism”-related offences).
We have seen, in recent months and years, many people, mainly young, arrested, some charged and (despite a number of acquittals) some sentenced to fairly long periods of imprisonment on the basis of evidence that would have shamed the Star Chamber, or some 1950s socialist satellite-state’s “people’s court”: Swastika-shaped cookie-cutters, Swastika designs on cushions, young men shooting their mouths off in pubs about killing MPs, young men buying Samurai swords (what century is this?!) for supposedly murderous purposes; young women naming their babies Adolf etc…[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Chamber].
What I see in the msm is mainly some contrived “cases” based on evidence much of which shows completely lawful activity (see above) which is then twisted into a “terrorism” narrative by police, MI5 perhaps, and the CPS.
Of course, now that political groups can be “banned” by System political decision, all that the police and CPS have to do is weave a web suggesting that X belongs, or has belonged, to Y or Z organization.
If someone decides to commit an offence, then that is their decision and they take the risk of the consequences, but much of what we have seen is quite obviously a manufactured “terror threat” tailor-made for the newspapers and TV to present as a reason to further repress free speech and free political activity by white British people.

Well, there’s a surprise! “Antifa” cheerleader Mike Stuchbery interested in the Tarot. Truly, as the Russian proverb has it, “the soul of another is a dark wood“! [чужая душа темный лес].
I was once, especially in the 1980s, very interested in different systems of divination: tarot, astrology, the I Ching etc. I settled on the I Ching as the one that worked best for me, though astrology can be accurate too; I don’t mean the rubbish found in newspaper columns; I used to cast my own charts using ephemeris tables etc (no computer programmes in those days, at least not for me). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ephemeris; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Ching.
The one time head of the Secret Intelligence Service, Sir Maurice Oldfield, was very interested in occult methods or disciplines such as astrology (both Western and Chinese), and in a Chinese system called “Nine Star Ki” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9_Star_Ki].
Oldfield apparently used a mixture of methods as a way of assessing character. For example, he is said to have remarked upon the fact that, using both Western and Chinese astrology, Kim Philby was a “Capricornian Pig”: see https://www.amazon.co.uk/Biography-Sir-Maurice-Oldfield/dp/0356104001. [Caveat: not everyone regards Deacon as the most veracious writer on the subject(s) of espionage and intelligence, but his books are interesting and original; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_McCormick].
John le Carre [David Cornwell] had one of his characters call “Control” (the head of the Secret Service in Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy), “a positive serpent“. Oldfield was certainly (one reads) a very complex character, probably one model for le Carre’s character, “Smiley”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurice_Oldfield;
In that Western/Chinese conflation, I would be a “Virgoan Monkey”! Western (sun in) Virgo, Chinese Monkey (Fire Monkey, 1956).

As Chekhov said, either (I forget) in one of his famous works, or perhaps to Gorky, and later recounted in Gorky’s memoirs called Literary Portraits, that “there are men to whom a tree is sacred“.

It is hard to imagine anywhere, or any architecture, that cannot be improved by the proximity of a few trees, or which will not be impoverished if existing trees are cut down.
Trees have several enemies in modern Britain, not least local councils who often resent the cost of sweeping leaves etc. The “health and safety” aspect is sometimes brought into play, often unecessarily. Yes, occasionally, tree branches do fall on people or, more usually, parked cars, during storms or other periods of high wind. That is not a good reason to cut down trees wholesale.
Britain has relatively low tree cover, comparing the UK to other European countries by proportion. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_countries_by_forest_area. Britain’s tree cover, though greater than it was in the recent past, is still only 13%. Germany has 33%, France 36%, and Finland 73%.
Britain needs more forests, more woods, more tree cover generally, eg in urban and suburban areas. The Woodland Trust, which has planted over 43 million trees over the past four or five decades, can help and even gives away saplings in some cases: https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodland_Trust.

I can understand why Hitchens has acceded to the softly-spoken insistence that he have the Covid-19 vaccine injection. He wants to travel, and that is being made all but impossible without vaccination. Many in the old Soviet Union, the vast majority in fact, made the same sort of compromise: unenthusiastic compliance with the regime, in order to live a quiet life, avoid penalties, and receive modest benefits such as good jobs, flats, or (for the few) travel outside Soviet borders.
An idealized view, to be sure, but essentially accurate. Britain was a better place before migration invasion, before Zionist control of the mass media (and now even online space), before multikulti and other nonsense.

An old German lady told me, long ago, that “it will take a long time, but people will eventually have to face the fact that the only answer is National Socialism.“
Hitler, in his Table Talk [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitler%27s_Table_Talk] remarks, not far from the disastrous end of the Second World War, that National Socialism (as known) was finished, but that in maybe a century’s time, the essence of National Socialism would be reborn in another form and then would seize the world with the force of a religion. God mote it be!
Interesting. The never-ending movement of history.

Some readers of my blog may have noticed that a small group of (((trolls))) and nuisances on Twitter have recently been making untrue allegations of criminal or near-criminal behaviour by me and two other named persons.
In relation to the allegations against me specifically, I have already been forced to complain to the employer of one of the said nuisances, an NHS consultant. I may be making further complaint (regulatory and/or official) in relation to that person and others.
I am not a natural complainer (and usually ignore trolls and nuisances because of my belief in free speech), but was forced, by the harassing tweets of these individuals, to take action.
Update, 22 June 2023
The individual who made the false allegations against me was one Tim G. Stevens, NHS psychiatrist and soi-disant novelist, who self-publishes derivative spy thrillers on Amazon.
My basic medium-term strategy would be to concentrate as many British/European people of social-national tendency as possible in one region, probably the South West of England.
The concept in outline is clear, the Schwerpunkt or “concentration of forces” at a single point, or in this case a diffuse point, a whole geographic region.
Not everyone can relocate, but a goodly number can, and many would.
I am not going to go into details here, mainly because I have done so in my previous blogging on the subject, going back 4 years.
Social nationalism must exist everywhere in the UK, including the major urban areas which are increasingly occupied by alien populations; the point is that one must have both a “home area” or “base area” and also the (same) place or area where people and forces are concentrated.
The people and groups in the “occupied” areas can draw strength and succour from that base or home area.
We do not know what disasters will befall the UK in the short to medium-term future. War, civil war, economic collapse, even a real pandemic which will kill much of the population.
We must be ready to take action, and then take up the reins of power, if and when something truly large-scale happens.
A small group of harmless bike buffs harassed pointlessly by the UK toytown police. Typical of what this country has become. Note that, far from being ashamed, the police are so proud of their actions that they tweet about them…
That sort of nonsense detracts from the necessary and publicly-useful work that the police (including the traffic police or highway patrol) do.

I keep trying to explain to people @paulembery that, whether you approve of them or not, such things are clear evidence that a major cultural, moral, social and political revolution has taken place in this country, and is still under way – supported, amusingly, by the Tory Party. https://t.co/jGeSg9gapZ
The UK msm (and so UK people) often think that the Roma Gypsies (with Romanian or other passports) are Romanian. Not so. They may have been born there, lived there, acquired passports there, but they are not Romanian.
The popular cultural milieu is where the purge must start. Having said that, take the above as a “many a true word spoken in jest” situation. That clip talks about the year 2050; in fact, the USA is already majority non-white, and the UK will, supposedly, be majority non-white by 2066. I think that it could in reality be as early as 2040 in the UK, with the continuing migration-invasion, and the far faster breed-rate of non-whites today, as well o the reluctance of white British people to breed, or to have more than one or two children.
We owe no loyalty to an alien-occupied state but only to our race and culture.

Where were they when Alison Chabloz was persecuted and prosecuted for having posted online her satirical songs mocking the “holocaust” hoaxes and fraudsters?
Where were they when Jez Turner of the London Forum was actually imprisoned for having made a humorous speech suggesting that the Jews be expelled from England (again)?

The Jews, historically, usually attack the host countries in two ways: first, by infiltrating the “upper classes” or rulership elements of the host countries; secondly, by inciting revolt among the lower classes of those host countries.
The pattern is seen in the UK. Wealthy Jews and part-Jews send their children to the most expensive schools, such as Eton, Harrow, St. Paul’s etc, not primarily for the education, but for the social and financial (and political) connections. Then on to Oxford or Cambridge. Examples? David Cameron-Levita, George Osborne, Alexander “Boris” Johnson.
Colonization . In fact, even what passes for “aristocracy” in the UK (mostly traceable only to the 20th or 19th centuries anyway) is thoroughly infiltrated as well. Even the Royal Family is contaminated.
The other side of the coin is the Jewish fomenting of rebellion and revolution, as seen in Marx (Jew), and then Lenin (part-Jew), Trotsky (aka L.D. Bronstein, a Jew), “Kamenev”, “Bukharin”, “Lunacharsky”, and the rest of the leading Bolsheviks and other Marxists.
For this latter aspect of their activity, the revolutionaries need what Lenin called “useful idiots“. Today, that might include “anti-racists”, “antifascists”, “Black Lives Matter” foot-soldiers, “refugees welcome” dimwits , “Extinction Rebellion”/Greta Nut fans and so on. All run by Jewish individuals or groups. “Hope not Hate” and “United Against Fascism” [UAF] as well.

Centrists are the middle class precariart of politics. Tories mostly flow back into well paid reward jobs. For centrists the anxiety of losing control of the narrative and thus losing the sinecures that guarantee their lifestyle expectations drives them crazy.
I think because they have real power they kind of aren’t bothered. There’s something about the aggro-centrist and their loss of certainty which has just made them flip out in the last few years.
All very true. One might not much like or respect someone such as the part-Jew Zac Goldsmith (not that I have ever met him in person, and I believe that he has genuine environmental interests) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zac_Goldsmith#Early_life], but it cannot be credibly said that he is in politics for the salary, perks and expenses! His inherited hundreds of millions make that not even a question.
There are now 8 billion human or humanoid people on the Earth, twice as many even as compared to 1970. If that 8 billion were to be reduced to 800 million or even 80 million, it would not matter, and for the Earth as “Gaia” would be a lifesaver, so long as all or almost all of the 800 or 80 million left were of basically Northern European descent.

Well, there it is. The emergent (if incompetent) UK police state in action, with even a presently-incumbent elected politician being interfered with by uniformed police as he quietly delivers leaflets in his own constituency re. an upcoming election…You could scarcely have a more blatant example of what is developing in this country.
You only have to look at how the Jews on UK Twitter support any Jewish actor, actress, scribbler, politician etc. They have an ethnocentrism and tribalism which we, the Europeans, simply no longer possess, if we ever did in that sense.
I think that I would stack up my reading, travelling etc against 99% of people, and against probably 100% of the “antifascist” idiot mob, and the result is, in part, this blog.
I distinguish between party and movement. Movement is wider. Any party can only be part of that wider movement.
As to party, narrowly, I think that a party is possible, though it would have to be understood from the beginning that it would never be able to “take power” in the usual way, by “getting elected”, simply because the whole system of elections and parties is now rigged.
Parties now have to be registered with the Electoral Commission in order to stand candidates under the party name at elections. Any party unable or unwilling to fit into the criteria of the Electoral Commission will either not be registered or may find itself deregistered, possibly just before an election. You can imagine what kind of (((objector))) might object to such a party, if the latter is social-nationalist.
Then there is the Equalities and Human Rights Commission, which in the past has interfered with the democratic process by fining or otherwise sanctioning parties as different as the Labour Party and the BNP. Guess what (((element))) was behind those interferences too. Yes, “them”…
G.K. Chesterton had a character in one of his Father Brown stories refer to a particular small seaside resort out of season as being as depressing “as a lost railway carriage“. That is exactly the feeling I get when I contemplate the small “nationalist” parties around in the past several years: Britain First, For Britain, the English Democrats etc.
The new organization, Patriotic Alternative [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patriotic_Alternative…note that (((certain enemies))) are trying to have even the Wikipedia entry deleted] is not as yet a political party officially, because its officials await “approval”. Can you imagine Hitler or Lenin applying for “approval”? I think not!
Patriotic Alternative is trying to form a wider social and political movement, and I generally like what little I see of them (online), though naturally the picture is mixed at this stage.
For me, a political party is essential but has to exist on the basis that its aim is not, certainly not primarily, “getting elected”.
How can such a party be formed and funded?
Formation: under one leader, not because I necessarily demand Fuhrerprinzip [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C3%BChrerprinzip] but because the Jew-Zionist enemy and the “antifascist” offshoots of the same will otherwise infiltrate any such national party and destroy it from the inside. I myself saw that happen to the National Front [NF] in 1975-1976, and from what I read, and am told, it happened later also to the British National Party [BNP]. Any “democratic” intra-party processes will be subverted by (((the usual suspects))).
Funding: the only way is to do as American churches and others do: “tithing”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tithe. Via tithing, even a movement or party with 100 people might command funding of around £200,000 a year; one of 1,000 people might have an income of £2 million a year. That is not far short of the major System parties.
The above requires that the members have full confidence in the leaders. As Hamlet says, “aye, there’s the rub“…
Still, as we approach the very significant year 2022, we all must think on the dilemma:
“Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take Arms against a Sea of troubles, And by opposing end them.” [Shakespeare, Hamlet].
The tweeter “@gemmacdoyle” is right, insofar as “Labour” (-lite) under Tony Blair and Gordon Brown certainly did “change people’s lives“! Imported untold millions more black and brown immigrants; introduced the shambolic and dishonest ATOS organization to harass the disabled, unemployed and poor; made the UK into the 51st state of the USA in foreign policy terms; got the UK involved in disastrous wars in Iraq and Afghanistan; devalued exam results and university degrees; pretty much destroyed Parliamentary democracy in the UK; gave in to Sinn Fein/IRA in Northern Ireland; increased the influence of the Jew lobby in the UK; loaded the British population with personal debt. Etc.
Both of those tweeters are of course effectively enemies of the British people, though in slightly different ways, just as Corbyn-Labour and Blair/Brown-Labour are or were.
Idk even where to start with this! Gov'ts are extremist and dangerous (I'm thinking Iraq and Africa) and healthy people are now locked up in order to save the few who couldn't survive the flu … I'm not happy to have my freedoms removed just because a few people are that crazy.
