That man is right. What we are witnessing across the white Western world is an exercise in psychological conditioning on a vast scale. A distortion of the truth on the scale of the “holocaust” narrative, and with far more immediate, and on-the-ground, effects.

It is absolutely shameful someone should be sent to prison for saying something that offends. Obviously I understand that governments, laws and sentencing are influenced by pressure, funding and lobbying but I didn’t think it would ever be made so obvious.
The re-sentencing of Alison Chabloz is set down for today. The re-sentencing has now been deferred twice (last Friday and this Monday) because material about Alison held by the probation people could not be released without the permission of undesignated “higher authority”, apparently. In the meantime, Alison has been in Bronzefield Prison, near Heathrow, for the past 4-5 days
All because of some remarks on an internet podcast about Jews, Zionism, “holocaust” fakery etc.
As far as the resentencing for the matter directly in question is concerned, the judge at Southwark Crown Court cannot hand down more than the maximum laid down by law, 6 months. That would in effect be 3 months actually in prison, and Alison has already served 9 weeks, has a 4-day credit for time wrongly served in 2020, and has now been remanded in custody for 5 days.
On the above premises, Alison would serve less than 2 weeks extra even if sentenced to “6 months”.
It occurs to me, though, that the court may find other ways of tacking on extra prison time, such as any finding that Alison was improperly let off from completing the “Unpaid Work Requirement” aka “community service” (forced/slave labour), which was part of her sentence from her yet earlier 2018 trial before Westminster Magistrates (for the heinous crime of mocking the “holy” Jewish Zionists and the “holocaust” farrago).
Alison did actually spend a few days in 2018 picking up litter in wet Derbyshire churchyards.
I was never, mainly, a criminal barrister, despite having done Crown Court and magistrates trials as Counsel, mainly in the London area in 1993-1995. Also, I have not practised at the Bar since 2008 (and, famously, or notoriously, was —wrongfully— disbarred in 2016). I therefore may be wrong about this, but I cannot see how the sentencing judge today can do anything about any incomplete slave labour from another case, and years ago.
More likely, the sentencing judge may be thinking about sentencing Alison to “slave labour” (community service labour) for this present matter. That would probably be more onerous to her than spending what amounts to, in practice, probably only about a week or so extra in prison, unpleasant though that may be (though information from a usually-reliable source says that she at least has had her own modern cell, and a television, over the past 4-5 days spent in Bronzefield Prison).
What was that phrase, about those who would “break a butterfly upon a wheel”?…
As I reported yesterday, Alison has also now been made subject to an Order, pursuant to a 2014 piece of police-state legislation, purporting to ban her from making any public —or even, it seems, private— mention of Jews, Zionists, Zionism, Israel, or the “holocaust” farrago. The Order even covers mention of WW2, and even any member of the NSDAP! For 3 years (the maximum duration permitted by the legislation). Draconian. She will be appealing that to the Administrative Court. The ambit of that Order is absurdly wide, in my view.
I shall relay news of the re-sentencing result when I have it, later in the day.

[Update, 24 October 2021: in the event, Alison Chabloz was sentenced to an extra term of imprisonment, mostly flowing from —as I speculated might happen, but which I thought unlikely to happen— the Unpaid Work Requirement from her previous sentence. Most unjust. However, she has now, at time of writing, been out of prison for many weeks]

It is worth taking a few minutes to brief yourself about the history of Afghanistan, which goes back thousands, and even tens of thousands, of years: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Afghanistan#History.
Looking down today’s list at Southwark Crown Court, I noticed that, out of 5 trials listed, only one defendant has a British (Welsh) first name and surname (if that means anything). The rest? 3 are obviously Muslim and the other something like Malay, or Thai, at a guess.
In fact, even that one “Welsh” name may not be really British (I do not know).

Unconfirmed reports state that Alison Chabloz has now been re-sentenced at Southwark Crown Court.
If the said reports are accurate, the sentencing judge has trawled back through the non-custodial part of the sentence Alison received, not for the most recent conviction, but the earlier one, in 2018! That sentence included a suspended prison sentence, as well as several non-custodial aspects.
It seems that what today’s sentencing judge has done is decide, on the basis of probation reports from 2018 (which are disputed), that Alison has not completed certain aspects of that 2018 sentence (eg enough hours of “slave labour”); the judge has also given Alison (as expected) an increase in sentence from the 18 weeks ordered by the magistrates earlier in 2021.
The result is that Alison has been sentenced to a headline sentence of a total of 32 weeks of imprisonment, of which she must serve half, i.e. 16 weeks, minus the 9 weeks already served, making 7 weeks extra.
I do not know whether Alison will be credited with the 4 days she served in 2020 prior to her (in effect) successful appeal on an earlier matter, or the 5 days which she has now served on remand, while awaiting this sentencing hearing. Presumably so. All the same, that would still leave Alison in prison for at least five and a half weeks from today.
I do not know whether there will be an appeal on sentence to the Court of Appeal.
The one bright aspect of the re-sentence, assuming that the unconfirmed reports are correct, is that there will now be no Criminal Behaviour Order, apparently. It may be that reports from yesterday (from usually-reliable sources) referred to what the judge was considering rather than what he eventually ordered. The presiding judge today said that to impose such an Order would be “unjustifiable“. With respect to His Honour, I can only agree!
However, the judge “advised” Alison to steer clear of social media.
The malicious Jew-Zionist pressure group, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], has admitted “pursuing” Alison Chabloz relentlessly “for years” (their words). The court might have taken that harrying and trolling into account, at least in mitigation, but obviously did not.
Some people, even on the social-nationalist and anti-Zionist side of the argument, have had their disputes with Alison Chabloz. There is, however, no disputing her courage.

Alison Chabloz— more detailon the re-sentence
Usually-reliable sources now report that Alison will be credited at least with the 5 days spent in custody on remand; she will therefore spend just over 6 weeks more in prison. No news as to the 4 other days, served in 2020.
More detail about how the sentencing judge today [H.H. Judge Beddoe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Beddoe] calculated his sentence: on the three charges wherewith Alison was convicted by magistrates earlier this year, 12 weeks each on the first two, consecutive, making 24 weeks. A further 12 weeks, but concurrent; then 8 weeks activated of the original 2018 suspended sentence, making 32 weeks in toto.
As noted earlier, that 32 weeks is then reduced by half, and then further reduced by the 9 weeks and 5 days Alison has already served, making about 6 weeks to be served, which, if she is credited with the other 4 days mentioned, might reduce the actual time to be served to about 5 and a half weeks.
It will be noted that, had the sentencing judge today not activated 8 weeks of the original 2018 suspended sentence, the total sentence today would have been 24 weeks, which would then have been reduced by half to 12 weeks, minus time served of 9 weeks, and also minus 5 days spent on remand in prison, which would have left Alison with no more than about 2 weeks to serve (less than two weeks if the extra 4 days were credited).
In other words, had the sentencing judge today not activated 8 weeks of the 2018 suspended sentence (an unexpected and remarkable decision), my previously-blogged calculations re. how much extra time Alison would have to serve would have been completely correct.
Further reports indicate that Alison is in good and defiant spirits despite the relatively harsh sentence. She is already working on a new song, this time about her various judges!
A final note, this time about the probation monkeys: on Monday, the probation “service” claimed that Alison had performed none of the “unpaid work requirement” (forced labour) from 2018. Today, when the reports were made available (the accuracy of which the presiding judge apparently criticized), it became clear that Alison had actually done 43 hours. Quite a difference. Administration is breaking down in the UK.
Write to Alison Chabloz
We should always support “the men (and women) behind the wire”. Alison is now in Bronzefield Prison. She would no doubt once again welcome cards, letters, books and small monetary gifts.
Her address is: Alison Chabloz A6478EK, HMP Bronzefield, Woodthorpe Road, Ashford, Middlesex, TW15 3JZ.
The prison number must always be included.
Books must be *new, *paperback, and preferably sent by commercial booksellers such as Abe Books (nb. Bronzefield does not accept any Amazon deliveries).
Money can also be sent, via the official system: see https://www.gov.uk/send-prisoner-money. With money sent, a prisoner can buy stamps, stationery, food etc. Also telephone credits.
Addendum
I have just now received a report to the effect that the presiding and sentencing judge in Alison Chabloz’s case did actually make a Criminal Behaviour Order against her yesterday. So my blog was accurate after all. He must have changed his mind, i.e. thought better of it. A Crown Court judge is in fact entitled to amend his own sentence within 56 days of it having been passed.
As I blogged yesterday and today, the Order that was apparently made yesterday would have been eminently appealable, in that it was ludicrously wide in its ambit, and unreasonably harsh in its duration. Still, water under the bridge…”and no need to mention the war”!

“What does it say about us as a country…?” Well, let me see…that the UK is scarcely a country, let alone a nation, any more. Swamped by non-European immigrants who are breeding fast, exploited by finance-capitalists and others (often —though certainly not always— Jew-Zionists), ruled by a cabal of NWO/ZOG puppets and Friends of Israel zealots (many Jewish, part-Jewish, Pakistani, Indian etc), and with standards sliding in all areas. Oh, and a state with only small and shrinking military and naval forces.
The UK has been increasingly in a dependent position, via a vis the USA, since 1940. So many people in the UK, though, cling to the idea that the UK is still the world power it was in the times of Empire.

It has now been reported by usually-reliable sources that Alison Chabloz has now been made subject to a Criminal Behaviour Order under the “police state” Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014. See https://www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidance/criminal-behaviour-orders.
In Alison’s case, this means that she is now prohibited from talking about, singing about, or writing about Jews, Zionists, Zionism, Israel, or the “holocaust” farrago.
This police state order has been expressed to endure for the maxmum time allowed by that law— 3 years.
The Order includes Internet, radio, social media, in a podcast, or during any public performance.
“They” really do fear the truth…this is akin to what one might expect in a jurisdiction such as Belarus or, indeed, Israel…
The Jew-Zionists will be laughing (but they have laughed prematurely on previous occasions…).
There will, apparently, now be an appeal to the Administrative Court (in effect, the High Court).
I confess that, having ceased Bar practice years before this evil and Draconian legislation was passed, I am not much au fait with its provisions, still less with any case law (precedents), but to give a woman convicted of merely discussing matters in a form of interview the maximum duration for such a Order cannot be just or right. Also, the purported ambit of the prohibition is incredibly wide.
A judge has a measure of discretion, but that judicial discretion must be exercized both lawfully and (in the strict legal sense) reasonably.
As far as I know, Alison will still appear for sentence tomorrow, Wednesday 18 August 2021. Southwark Crown Court.

If you put an impurity, a drop of something, into a large amount of water, it usually makes little difference. The more of the impurity you put into the water, the less pure is the water, the less like ordinary water it is. If a huge amount of the impurity is poured in, eventually the water is not really water at all, but just takes on the characteristics of the impurity. That is Britain (and much of Europe) today.

Not that I myself oppose “independence” for Scotland, i.e. Scotland going its own way, no longer dependent on the English taxpayer. Good luck and (sincere) good wishes. However, the entirely fake “nationalism” of the SNP means Pakistani “Scottish” ministers of “justice”, dictatorial powers, a very politicized police force, an (((occupied))) Press, radio, and TV, and a Scotland basically run by Zionists, freemasons, and Common Purpose conspirators.

“Appalling lack of intelligence” [Nick Ferrari on LBC radio]. Well, that’s SIS for you. A career opportunity for some of the British middle classes, but not much good when you come right down to it, and when you strip away the (hugely overblown) WW2 “successes”, the rather few Cold War successes (I suppose that Penkovsky was the numero uno), and the fantasies of spy fiction, such as Ian Fleming’s James Bond books and the subsequent films, not much is left, certainly not in the public domain.
Forget Philby. He was of little real interest (though that would not have been the case had he gone on to be Chief of the SIS).
The real SIS failures have not been its probably small number of traitorous staff but its actual intelligence failures, such as failure to predict the fall of the Shah, fall of the Soviet bloc, invasion of the Falklands etc. Actual uselessness.
Operations such as putting Gordievsky in a car boot and smuggling him to Finland were of rather small importance in the big scheme of things.
Mitrokhin? His material is of huge historical importance, but that is another matter. There may well have been other, still-confidential material, but whether that was so or not, he was a “walk-in”, and all SIS had to do was not reject his approach (and later excavate the bulk of his material from under his dacha). He was never cultivated or developed prior to his “recruitment” (if such be the bon mot); the initiative was his. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vasili_Mitrokhin
Incidentally, Ian Fleming was far from being an “intelligence expert”: he was found a job (having been useless at everything beforehand) by his loaded banking family [Fleming’s Bank: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Fleming_%26_Co.] as the assistant to the Director of Naval Intelligence, basically a male PA. He was given a courtesy rank, Lieutenant, then Lt. Commander. He was never a real naval (or intelligence) officer, neither was he given any training, whether naval or otherwise. Most if not all of the operations he planned during WW2 were failures or nullities. A play “intelligence officer”.

Readers of the blog will recall that, last Friday (13 August 2021), Alison Chabloz, having lost her appeal from the Westminster Mags, was (oddly) remanded in custody pending sentence today (Monday 16 August 2021) by the presiding judge, H.H. Judge Beddoe [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Beddoe].
The current situation is that Alison was “produced” in court today, but the Court is still having “difficulties” accessing Alison’s probation records, it having transpired on Friday last that “higher authority” would be required to allow access even to the judge (who is a Circuit judge)!
The net result of this bureaucratic nonsense was that, today, sentence could not be passed, because the judge wanted to see those probation records first. He has therefore once again remanded Alison in custody, this time until Wednesday!
As I blogged previously, Alison has already served about 9 weeks in prison as a result of the 18-week sentence given by the lower court, which means that any greater sentence given by this present court (to a maximum of 6 months) would, in reality (bearing in mind the usual release after half of the sentence is served) mean that Alison would have to do about another 2-3 weeks (she has several days “credit” for having served a few days in 2020 prior to a successful appeal).
Alison now has another 5 days served in Bronzefield Prison, so (if my calculations are accurate) even if she gets the maximum sentence on Wednesday, can probably expect release about 1-2 weeks later.
I am beginning to think that she will not get further imprisonment, or that perhaps some way will be found to “embugger” her otherwise, by adding on “community service” or some other onerous penalty.

Anecdotal but…in the early 1990s, a Sri Lankan solicitor, a woman, used to instruct a few members of my then chambers (including me, occasionally). Thick as two short planks, and seemed to think that paying Counsel was optional. In the end, she was about to be indicted for embezzlement when she killed herself. My point is that she was presumably part of the “educated elite” of Sri Lanka.
All the same, it may be that, after almost unimaginable destruction and bloodshed, the first generation of a post-Aryan super-race may one day (maybe as soon as 2050 or 2100) walk the depopulated and greening expanses of what were once the British urban and suburban areas.
I visited a Tesco store about 6 miles from home today. About 50% or so of the shoppers were masked, including two virtue-signalling fat women who were slapping vast amounts of free Tesco hand gel all over their hands, arms etc at the entrance, while loudly talking about how they were protecting themselves and others. It was amusing to walk past them, unmasked, while almost laughing at them.
The present situation in Afghanistan is the “fault” of a number of parties or players: the backward Afghans themselves, the now-long-gone Soviet Union (for the 1979 invasion), the USA (for arming the Islamists, and for later invading Afghanistan along with NATO satraps —notably the UK—.
While I do not favour the importation of large numbers of Afghans (or any other brown/black people) to the UK, for me it is simply a matter of honour and gratitude to extract the relative few who worked openly with UK forces as interpreters, along with their immediate families. To abandon them to the “mercy” of the Islamists would be, for me, not a decent option.
That, despite the fact that I always opposed the intervention.
As for the thousands, if not millions, particularly women, who face death or degradation under Taliban rule, there is nothing that can now be done for them, unless the “West” is willing to reoccupy the country and (this time) rule it as a straight occupying and colonial power. That at least would be both honest and effective. It will not happen.
Ekranoplan
It may be worth looking again at the Ekranoplan. Same goes for Zeppelins (lighter-than-air craft) and other “discarded” technological manifestations. The hovercraft was at first dismissed as a cranky idea; the inventor, Cockerell, received scant thanks or honour in his lifetime (though the UK government did eventually grant him a special payment).
Readers of the blog in recent days will have noted that the appeal of Alison Chabloz, from her magistrates’ court conviction and sentence of early 2021, failed on Friday. She was remanded, oddly, in custody, until sentencing (set down for tomorrow, Monday 16 August 2021).
I myself cannot see any proper reason why she was remanded in custody, despite the presiding judge saying that he was “minded” to increase the sentence handed down by the magistrates earlier in the year.
Alison has served about 9 weeks of an 18-week sentence, i.e. the usual proportion before having been released. If the sentence on Monday is custodial (there remains a small chance that it will not be), then the maximum would be 6 months, meaning that Alison would expect to be released halfway through, at 3 months.
Alison has now served over 2 months, has several days “credit” due her for time wrongfully served in 2020 (her appeal against that succeeded when the CPS declined to disclose the backstairs manipulations of the CAA fake charity and some political figures), and has now served another 3 days (inc. tomorrow). That being so, she should only have to “sit” (as the Russians say) for another 2-3 weeks, even if she is (ludicrous as that would be) given the maximum sentence of 6 months. That is assuming release halfway through the sentence.
Still, not very nice for Alison, who has only been convicted, this time, for expressing opinions on history and society, really. The UK is becoming a (gradually-expanding) police state.
If anyone wishes to support Alison at court tomorrow (Monday 16 August 2021), she is going to be produced in person for the sentence. I apprehend that several Jew-Zionists are intending to attend so that they can gloat. What more would one expect from such tasteless creatures?
The matter will come on “not before 1230” at Southwark Crown Court; presiding and sentencing judge: H.H. Judge Beddoe.
That does not mean that the matter will be heard at 1230. It might be 1230, it might be 1245. It might be later. Courts usually break for lunch at 1300 hrs until 1400 or even later (the High Court usually resumes at about 1430).
When I often appeared at the High Court, in the early/mid 1990s, matters were often set down “not before…”, often with a time estimate (anything from 5 minutes to several days).
So this matter might well only start after 1400 hrs. How long? Depends on what the judge wants to examine and what he wants to say.
The court is (quite short) walking distance from London Bridge, and slightly further (but still within easy walking distance) from London Bridge Underground.
I read somewhere that a high proportion of those who jump off the Golden Gate Bridge and survive (surprisingly, some do) realized, after they had jumped, that they wished that they had not jumped.
I wonder whether those who realized that they wanted to survive (and/or prayed?) and did survive, are just a random group, or did some (or even all?) survive because they wanted to and/or prayed? There is of course no way to tell whether prayer or desire make any difference.

We move now to 2022 and the following 33 years. Everything we now see on the international stage is connected to that: the “BLM” nonsense, the “panicdemic” measures and restrictions, much of the “climate change” stuff, the migration-invasion of Europe, the move to a “cashless” (totally-controlled) society. It’s all being co-ordinated.

PM says in pool clip that what’s happened “was a chronicle of an event foretold, we’ve known for a long time the way things were going.”

Coincidentally President Biden also asked about Afghanistan on 8th July: asked whether he saw any parallels between Saigon/Vietnam and Kabul/Afghanistan: “None whatsoever. Zero”, he replied.
Quite funny, in a sense, that even now, after 20 years of Johnson’s clowning, after 2 years of Boris-idiot posing as Prime Minister, msm scribblers and talking heads are still asking about, in effect his (non-existent) competence for the role…
Boris Johnson is totally incompetent, totally unfitted for any senior political role. A part-Jew clown, chancer, joker, gambler, without any principle or principles, withot any real ideas of any kind. A total political idiot. Need one really keep repeating this?
As for “British Intelligence”, it (like much of Britain) has lived off its hump and its mostly undeserved reputation for a very very long time, and if it failed to notify its Whitehall and Downing Street customers in advance of the fall of the Shah of Iran, or of the Argentine invasion of the Falklands, or of the fall of the Soviet “empire” and the collapse of world socialism (and add to that the consequences of toppling Gaddafi), then it certainly is not surprising that its assessment of Taliban strength, order of battle, and of the general situation in Afghanistan was equally useless (it seems, looking from outside).
Possible today marks the end of something- or rather, Afghanistan catching up with something. The last decade saw the West lose all political will to conduct sustained interventionism. Hard to imagine in what circs West would intervene now. That moment feels as if it has passed.
“Intervention”, in order to create a new imperium in a given geopolitical space is one thing: Alexander, Rome, the British Empire, Germany seeking Lebensraum in 1939-42, the Soviet Union seeking Eastern/Central European hegemony after 1945; all of those had a strategy, a plan, and —crucially– “ideology”.
Then we have the US/”NATO” (NWO/ZOG) invasions of Iraq, Afghanistan, and (attack on) Libya. No plan, no strategy, no idea of staying for the long-term and creating any new society, or colonizing those areas. Somewhere between pointless destruction and a geopolitical gesture.
Pathetic. The Western leaders of today are dwarfs in the geopolitical arena.

Apart from that, some authors are hard to film well or credibly. A few that come to my mind would be E.W. Hornung (Raffles etc), G.K. Chesterton (Father Brown stories etc), and John le Carre.
The BBC (partly thanks to Alec Guinness) did well with the TV series Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, and Smiley’s People. Peter Egan’s performance in A Perfect Spy, likewise, was stellar, lifting the level considerably, the short series complex but good.
Other attempts at filming le Carre have mostly fallen rather flat: the fairly recent Tinker, Tailor… film, The Tailor of Panama (rubbish), The Constant Gardener etc. Some were “all right”: The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, The Looking-Glass War, The Little Drummer Girl.
Another author whose books have not filmed well (admittedly, I believe I only saw one of the films, Gorky Park) is Martin Cruz Smith. A rare Western author (American at that) able to get under the Soviet skin, but the film or films let him down.

We are, naturally, opposed to the increasing proportion of non-Europeans in the UK and Europe generally, but we must not forget that much of the white English population is composed of useless, uncultured deadheads, who also offer nothing but, in their case, (possible) genetic material for the creation of a future super-race. The level of those English people has to be raised; if not, then they too are useless and will have to be jettisoned.
The msm and many of its journalists or scribblers are collusive. They know or guess much of the transnational conspiracy, but collude with it for reasons of personal advancement. They are, in effect, enemy elements.
Exactly. The System needs at least two “major parties” (even if their combined membership is only about 600,000, i.e. 1% of the UK population) because it preserves the facade of a binary choice, the facade of supposed “democracy” etc. So fake Labour has to exist, just as fake Conservative Party has to exist, in order to fool the mass of the people into thinking that they have a real choice. They do not have any such choice.
Labour, like the “Conservatives” has to exist and pretend to put forward a bunch of policies, when really both parties have been stripped of real policy, real difference, and even real politicians (look at the pathetic deadheads now crowding the Commons and Lords alike). You want to see what “ZOG” looks like? Just look at “British” political parties and MPs today.

Alison Chabloz
Latest news is that Alison’s appeal, at Southwark Crown Court, has failed.
It will be recalled, by those who have read yesterday’s blog post, that one of the two magistrates who flank the presiding Circuit judge at such an appeal had to be removed when it came to light that he had actually been a trustee of a Jewish “charity” to do with the Anne Frank “diary”.
It seems, on the face of it, incredible that such a person could be allotted such an appeal, bearing in mind the subject matter and the defendant!
Well, there it is. The appeal proceeded, with only two of the usual three members sitting.
According to a source thought reliable, the presiding judge today expressed the view that the sentence passed by the lower court on Alison was “lenient”; a very strange idea of leniency, bearing in mind that the sentence passed had been 18 weeks’ imprisonment out of a maximum of 6 months (i.e. c.26 weeks).
The usual practice in a case of this sort (where only a small increase of sentence can be handed down) is to remand the defendant on bail to reappear for sentence on (in this case) Monday 16 August. Alison, however, has been remanded in custody over the weekend.
The presiding judge is, apparently, “minded” to pass a further custodial sentence on Monday, though that sentence will be short. In fact, even were the maximum sentence (6 months) to be passed, she could expect to be released at the halfway point, and Alison has already done about 2 months in prison, so she might only serve 3 weeks or so.
I have to say that this looks more like (further) persecution rather than unbiased justice.
Another interesting fact: “To the surprise of everyone in court, including the judge and the prosecutor, the representative of the Probation Service after making enquiries informed the judge that access to Alison’s probation file is restricted and higher authority will be required to view it. No doubt this very strange circumstance will catch the interest of the conspiracy theorists. It is on any view a very odd thing.” [from a reliable source].
That, apparently, was why the judge did not pass sentence immediately.
Well, the fanatical Jew-Zionist element will be rubbing its hands tonight, but whatever happens on Monday, Alison will be out of prison within a few weeks at the latest. There also remains a slight possibility (perhaps very slight) that she will not be imprisoned on Monday.

Not sure that I agree with Hitchens here. The few Trotskyists and similar “Leftists” I knew at and immediately after school were all pedestrian in mentality. Some claimed to be both Communist and anarchist! Trotskyism —a dummy intellectuality for the mediocre. Surprisingly (?), many Trotskyists have always been Jew or part-Jew (as, latter, is Hitchens).
I am also not in agreement with Hitchens when he refers to “Left wing” sympathies having been less popular in the (?) 1970s or late 1960s. I myself never use the terms “Left” and “Right” as meaningful, but certainly socialism of the old sort is just passe now, nicht wahr?

The above tweet typifies not only the view of John Rentoul, but also of the “New Labour” type of System commentator (and politician) generally. They think that politicians should —mainly— find out the public/msm view (via polling, focus groups etc) then do whatever that research suggests in order to be going with the popular tide; to be “electable”. I disagree. Leaders must lead, must make judgments based on their own views and assessments.
In 1928, Hitler and the NSDAP were very definitely not popular. They got only 2.8% of the popular vote. However, their integrity and vision impressed that same fickle public when, after the collapse of the world finance-capitalist economy in 1929, the vision of a German renaissance was held out. The NSDAP scored 33% in 1932 and, with Hitler as Chancellor, 44% in 1933.

The sort of issue which happens when a superficially “liberal” regime (such as under the “Labour”-label governments from 1997-2010) passes kneejerk laws “for public protection”, but which scarcely protect the public while at the same time trashing the true rule of law and civil rights. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imprisonment_for_public_protection.
There have been other such laws, such as the very bad law known as Communications Act 2003, s.127, under whch jokers, satirists, socio-political commentators, and those discussing the fakery around the “holocaust” narrative have been harassed and even imprisoned. Singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz for one.
Section 127 of the Communications Act 2003 may now face repeal, following the recent report by the Law Commission, but there are a number of other “kneejerk” laws still standing, such as that by which almost all firearms were criminalized in 1997. As usual emotion led thought: only three “gun massacres” have occurred in British civil history, of which two were pre-1997 (Dunblane and Hungerford).
As a result of politicians wanting to get public approbation for “doing something”, privately held pistols were effectively banned, even if held by clubs. Has that stopped “gun crime”? No. There was a later “spree shooting” (in 2011) by someone using licensed shotguns and rifles, and there have been innumerable shootings by criminal gangs and individuals.

Apsana Begum
Where does one start? First of all (obviously), she is not of English or British origins: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apsana_Begum. Secondly, she has (of course) never had a real job, just political agitation and the usual “diversity” and “anti-racism” bs.
““In response to allegations that the ex-Mayor Lutfur Rahman was behind her political career, Begum told Eastlondonlines: “It is grossly insulting, as well as being rooted in racism and misogyny, to assume that I have no agency of my own and that I must be a ‘proxy’ or ‘stooge’ for a man I have not spoken to for six years.” [Wikipedia]
Strangely enough, her defence at her recent fraud trial was quite or almost the reverse: that she had been coerced into doing things by her estranged husband…
I presume that Apsana Begum is still living in her council flat. While, in principle, I have no objection to an MP living in a council flat, MPs do get paid about £85,000 a year (plus fairly generous expenses), so it does seem unfair on the poor and homeless of Tower Hamlets that she continues to occupy a cheap flat when she could afford a better private one (or to buy one on a mortgage), and bearing in mind that Limehouse and Tower Hamlets is a safe Labour seat (and near-rotten borough), so she can probably expect to be the MP for a long long time (unless a national revolution occurs, please God).

Of all the countries in the world, the one I would have thought, years ago, would be least likely to turn into an NWO/ZOG “woke” dictatorship or tyranny would have been Australia, where I myself was at school for three years in the late 1960s (Middle Harbour PS and North Sydney Boys’ High).
Seems that times have changed, to put it tritely.
I was friendly, in 1996-97, with the Australian Ambassador to Kazakhstan, and his lady ambassadress. He updated me, when he and his wife were my guests at dinner (at my favourite small Georgian restaurant, where I and guests were usually the only diners) on the demographic changes since the 1960s, in particular the huge increase of both population and built area (especially in and around Sydney, where I had been as a child, living in Mosman and then Cremorne).
That population explosion and suburban expansion has continued.
In the late 1960s, Sydney had about 2.5M inhabitants; now it is 5.5M. Australia as a whole had about 12M people; now about 25M.

“We are living under tyranny. The novelty of our situation has made its essence difficult to grasp, while the comforts that we still enjoy (for now) are concealing this reality for many, but the direction of travel is clear. The British government, and other governments, are operating through propaganda, censorship, deception, whisper networks, diktats, smear campaigns, political corruption and political repression to disseminate a pseudo-scientific narrative and ideology intended to entrench their power.
Government scientists, claiming to be speaking apolitically on the basis of ‘pure scientific facts’ are producing, on commission, pseudo-objective recommendations to camouflage an unrelated set of policies intended to achieve political and economic ends. At the same time, other government scientists manipulate the public with terrifying images and slogans, to pressurise against examining the government claims too closely.
The real policy agenda is fundamentally destructive and unpopular. Nobody was asked about it, nobody voted for it, and nobody wants it, except for the powerful global corporate, financial and political powers which are now collaborating to install it though force and fraud.
This is the pandemic: a global shock doctrine used as cover fundamentally to restructure global society.
The next political step in the plan remains the total social control matrix represented by immunity passports. For the moment, Britain is kept in lockdown because the lockdowns are required in order ‘to escape’ via vaccine passports; this too, of course, will not be an escape but an enslavement. Further steps will involve intensifying persecution of the ‘anti-vaxxers’, that is, all opposition to the government as it becomes more nakedly tyrannical, along with actions to co-opt opposition, misdirect it, misrepresent it and deflect it. A variety of active measures have begun already, for example the reported mandatory vaccination of NHS and care home workers.
Two weeks ago New York asset manager BlackRock began purchasing whole neighbourhoods of single-family homes in the United States. The idea is to shift from an ownership to a more profitable rental model. As the World Economic Forum says: ’You will own nothing and you will be happy.’
You actually will be a slave. Your social existence will now be made dependent on an algorithm determining how good a slave you are.” [Daniel Miller, writing in Conservative Woman online magazine].
In the UK, this is manifesting in various ways rather rapidly.
The country is split into two: the majority, perhaps vast majority, who take everything about “the virus”, its supposed importance, and the measures taken around it by government, at face value; and the smaller section of society who realize or have realized that “something is going on” that has little to do, directly, with necessary public health precautions etc, but much to do with the creation of a kind of disguised police state combined with the simultaneous creation of a panic-driven “public fear state”.
Well, once again I beat John Rentoul. He scored 6/10, but I trump that with 7/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 3 and 10 (though hit the post on question 2, thinking that it was 25 years and not the correct 20).
Much as I have little or no time for Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer, I am yet surprised at some of those opinion poll responses. Boris-idiot leads a charmed life (so far)…
As for Andy Burnham, I realized years ago that he was a likely Labour Party leader (amid a poor selection bunch) but I see from the opinion poll that while about half the respondents would be more likely to vote Lab were Burnham to be leader, and only 10% less likely, 41% are unsure. Maybe Burnham is seen as dull (just like Starmer).
The problem for Labour, as I have blogged repeatedly, lies not only or mainly with its leader(s) but with its whole raison d’etre.

Given the police are no longer willing or able to police Covid regulations on gathering outside, why not just scrap the rule. Save all the “one law for G7” stuff and just let people enjoy the summer. (If and when it comes back).
Most of the measures taken have been a complete waste of time. That applies particularly to the facemask nonsense.
Roanna Carleton-Taylor and “Resisting Hate”
Twitter users will have seen many tweets by one Roanna Carleton-Taylor of Derbyshire (near Chesterfield), who was the mainstay of yet another hate-filled “anti-fascist” “organization” (consisting of a small number of lunatics and/or non-Brits). It is or was (possibly defunct now) smaller than the better-known and mainly Jewish “anti-hate” hate orgs such as “Hope Not Hate” and “United Against Fascism”.
“Roanna” was on Twitter as “@antifashwitch” and is now “@oilpaintwitch”. She has tweeted about me occasionally in the past; also about Alison Chabloz and others. She is friendly on Twitter with a few mentally-disturbed Jewish and other trolls in North London and elsewhere.
I have just seen a WordPress blog post about her, her husband, and others, which post is so plainly libellous (though I believe probably true) that I decline to quote from it or even link to it here.
Not that I am worried about being sued. My financial status now is such that I am effectively “unsueable” (to the chagrin of a few ambulance-chasing Jew lawyers and others!). Also my legal skills are still (mostly) there (despite having not had professional outing for many years). The Jews on Twitter have often mocked (what they assert were) my poor talents, but the unpleasant old Jew Q.C. who led the complaint against me to the Bar Standards Board in 2014 (resulting in my disbarment in late 2016) wrote to the BSB that, inter alia, “[Millard] has a strong and subtle intelligence“, if I recall his letter aright…
“Resisting Hate” seems to have imploded now, and “Roanna” has turned to painting. Her oils, some of them, are not too bad in fact, rather odd but quite original. Not sure what to call them. Something in the Primitive category, maybe. I am probably not qualified to categorize them. They have a certain soulfulness, suffused with foreboding.
In fact, I am often interested to see what happens to those who say “bad things” about me on Twitter and elsewhere, or indeed do bad things. These are or were persons who had never met me, knew little or nothing about me, yet were happy to laugh at my disbarment in 2016, laugh at my being expelled from Twitter in 2018 etc, and even to make malicious complaints about me to Internet organizations, professional organizations, even police organizations.
Quite a few of those mentioned above are now dead (natural causes, and “nothing to do with me, guv”…). I refrain from naming them because some troll would no doubt claim to the police that I am posting “grossly offensive” things. I sometimes amuse myself by reading the trolls’ (often still-extant) tweets attacking or mocking me. Who’s laughing now?…
Others have had other “tragic” events happen to them or to their families. Again, I choose not to give specific examples. Some of my most relentless trolls and pursuers are also now suffering from serious medical conditions.

Stunning…
As I remarked earlier, I might have little time for Starmer, but that people see “Boris” as more intelligent and, incredibly, more trustworthy than Starmer!… What dystopian parallel universe is this?

For me, leaving aside the plainly significant local factors, I should say that there is huge dissatisfaction with the present ridiculous government, but that, also, people have nowhere to go as yet. Yes, the LibDems had a stunning by-election victory in Chesham and Amersham, but there is no LibDem revival generally; and very few will vote Labour in southern England outside (or even inside) London.
The overnight upsurge of Brexit Party in 2019 is a lesson not much taken on board. If it had not been “controlled opposition”, if its leader had been someone more honest and ideological than snake-oil salesman Nigel Farage, if Farage had not stabbed Brexit Party in the back during the General Election, if if if…
Still, if one party can do it, rise up “from nowhere”, another party, social national and more honest, could do the same…
Interesting perhaps, but there was a similar list before the 2019 General Election. I have no faith either that the LibDems will revive enough to become significant players on the national stage or, in the unlikely event that they were to repeat their 2010 successes, that the LibDems would not then sell out again, as they did in 2010, for ministerial portfolios and money.
Only 5/10 this week, though I still beat John Rentoul (again); he only scored 4/10. I did not know the answers to questions 4, 6, 8, 9, and 10 (could not remember what LED —exactly— means, and I hit the post on the Battle of Bannockburn, knowing that it was Edward I’s successor but not knowing who the hell that was).

Here are some snippets from @campbellclaret Diaries vol 8 I didn't have space for in the review
It seems that the said Halloran has now joined the no-chance Reclaim Party set up by the actor Laurence Fox, who now stands for free speech (except, it seems, where Jews disapprove or are mentioned). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurence_Fox.
It is clear that Reclaim Party will never amount to anything. As far as the Batley and Spen by-election in July is concerned, the stand-aside will obviously help the Conservative candidate, but what is unknown is by how many votes. Halloran received 12.2% of the vote in 2019, true, but Fox, in the recent London Mayoral Election, only 1.9%.
I suppose that it might be surmised that Halloran, had he stood at Batley, might have garnered 5% of the by-election vote, possibly 10%, and maybe even 15%+, but the fact is that that is pure speculation. We do not know.
What we do know is that the above news is probably a blow for Labour. A few percent might decide this contest.
Chesham and Amersham by-election 2021
The Chesham and Amersham by-election is set down for 17 June 2021. It has been occasioned by the death of the sitting member, Cheryl Gillan [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheryl_Gillan].
I usually abide by the maxim de mortuis nihil nisi bonum (“[say] nothing but good of the [recent] dead”) but the fact is that the recently-deceased MP was little better than a persistent and outright thief [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheryl_Gillan#Expenses] who defrauded the taxpayer out of far more than was explicitly exposed during the 2009 expenses scandal.
As to the constituency, this is rock-solid Conservative Party territory, situated at the suburban and semi-rural Northern joint termini of the Metropolitan Line.
The lowest ebb of Conservative Party fortunes at Chesham and Amersham was 1997, but even in that year of “Labour landslide” the Conservative vote held up at 50.4%. The high-water mark was the 1992 General Election (63.3%). Even the expenses scandal did not dent Cheryl Gillan’s vote (60.4% in 2010).
Second place in elections at Chesham and Amersham has usually gone to the Liberal Democrats, but UKIP (2015, 13.7%) and Labour (2017, 20.6%) have also featured.
The LibDem vote-share fell to only 9% (and a fourth-place) in the debacle of 2015, but recovered to 13% in 2017, and to 26.3% in 2019.
As for Labour, its low point was 2010 (5.6%), and its high point 2017 (20.6%).
Eight candidates contest the by-election, the other five being Green Party, Reform Party UK, Freedom Alliance, Breakthrough Party, and Rejoin EU.
Green Party got 5.5% at Chesham and Amersham in 2019.
Reform Party UK is the rump of Brexit Party, and scored 1% in the most recent London Assembly elections.
Rejoin EU managed to get a vote of 1.1% in the 2021 London Mayoral election. Its by-election candidate is Brendan Donnelly [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brendan_Donnelly_(politician)], a one-time employee at the Foreign Office, who became a Conservative Party MEP in 1994, then left the Conservative Party, stood again in 1999 under the banner of the short-lived “Pro-Euro Conservative Party” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pro-Euro_Conservative_Party], failed to be re-elected, and thereafter became a serial and unsuccessful pro-EU election candidate under several flags.
Freedom Alliance is a reaction to the toytown police state created by the 2020 Coronavirus events, and is based in Huddersfield [https://freedomalliance.co.uk/], though its Chesham and Amersham by-election candidate is a former Green Party councillor who lives in High Wycombe [https://freedomalliance.co.uk/england-candidates/].
The main interest in the by-election will be that of seeing how low Labour will sink.

Well, Hitchens is sometimes worth noting, but I have to say that when I had a Twitter account (a pack of Jew-Zionists had me expelled in 2018), Hitchens blocked me mainly if not entirely because he saw that I knew more than him. My later assessment of him: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/05/19/peter-hitchens-and-his-views/.
NWO. ZOG. The Great Reset. It’s happening right in front of our eyes, yet the majority, perhaps the vast majority, are unaware, or think it is just something to do with a virus that has killed about one in a thousand British people (and even fewer worldwide)…
There is a case for foreign aid. It rests, in its purest form, on charity or compassion, just like social welfare, free medical care etc in the UK domestic context. In less obviously pure form, foreign aid can be regarded as an incident of “soft power” and diplomacy.
Having said that, much foreign aid is misapplied, wasted, or stolen. I could give examples from my own overseas experience.
On BBC TV News, I saw today some woman talking (from her own rather comfortable-looking home) about the recent decision to further cut foreign aid. She was one of the directors of the long-established charity, Save the Children, which —subject to correction— I think was founded in or at the end of the First World War.
Some reading this may recall that, after the Jo Cox assassination in 2016, it came to light that the husband of that MP, the (I always thought, seeing him on TV etc) rather thuggish Brendan Cox, was exposed as a sex pest and quasi-rapist. Well, what interested me more was the fact that (if I recall aright), as something like third in command of Save the Children, Brendan Cox was being paid something like £200,000 pa. Not bad for someone with a very underwhelming academic and other background. Worse, the actual head of Save the Children was getting over £300,000 (in fact, from memory, it was nearly £400,000).
Not that I think that the head of a large organization, even a charitable one, should not be paid decently or even well, bearing in mind the skills required and responsibility held, but all the same it sits unpleasantly to see people donating pennies, or hard-scrabbled pounds, while the fat cats at the top of the tree get hundreds of thousands of pounds (and expenses) every year.
The world of international aid charities is a rotten borough. I once met a woman who was getting very well paid indeed (the equivalent of maybe £100,000 a year in today’s money), for about 2-3 days a week working for DFID as a “consultant”; she had some academic job as well. She told me that she had even been offered more money, about double, working for the UN Food and Agriculture Organization [FAO] in Rome. Her job title? [would be] “expert in food poverty”!
There’s something unclean about all that. Carpetbagging hypocrisy.
The latest news (as yet unconfirmed) about the persecuted satirist and singer is that her appeal against conviction and sentence will take place on 13 August 2021. As said, this is as yet unconfirmed. The appeal had been set down for the two days of 3-4 June 2021, but was adjourned at the request of the Crown. It may be that the appeal will now be more narrowly focussed, i.e. focussed on strictly legal arguments, and that that is why it seems now to be set down for only one day.
In the past, little happened in the courts in August, but that was then.
