Well, slightly to my surprise, I defeated political journalist John Rentoul once again this week. Rentoul scored 4/10, but I trumped that, scoring 6/10 (admittedly, was unsure about question 8). I did not know the answers to questions 1, 2, 4, and 5.
Journalistic accuracy
Never accept, without checking, whatever a journalistic scribbler may say. I was just reading a not-uninteresting piece in The Oldie magazine, and about the Metropolitan Police in the 1970s, which article was written in 2023 by Duncan Campbell, a well-known journalist and author who was, arguably, better-known in the 1980s than he now is.
Reading Campbell’s nicely-written piece, I notice that he says (in 2023) of the famous or infamous ex-cat burglar, Peter Scott, that “Scott now lives in a council flat in King’s Cross, the proceeds from the odd Vermeer and Sophia Loren’s diamonds long gone.“
As a matter of fact, I reviewed Scott’s memoirs on Amazon UK many years ago now.
My Amazon book reviews are now unavailable— the usual pack of Jews had me “cancelled” about 15 years ago, around 2010, from reviewing books both on Amazon UK (where I was one of the top book reviewers) and Amazon USA. A Jew formerly resident in the UK but now living in Ra’anana (a suburb-town in the Tel Aviv area of Israel/Occupied Palestine) was the main instigator.
Scott lived, in his heyday, in the less-prestigious outer part of Maida Vale, whereas I lived at one time in Little Venice (also part of Maida Vale):
My (intermittent, from 1976 to 1996) times in Little Venice overlapped with Scott’s time in the area (he used the tiny “gangster pub”, the Windsor Castle, in Lanark Place, a pub at one time supposedly owned by Barbara Windsor, who was tied up with all sorts of gangsters and other criminals).
[The old Windsor Castle pub, in Lanark Place W.9., not to be confused with another and much larger pub with the same name in the outer regions of Maida Vale by Harrow Road; I believe both are now permanently closed, the Little Venice one (above) now trading as a Korean food outlet. Sign of the times…]
I occasionally had a drink there. One morning, waiting for the no.6 bus to take me to the High Court (I was appearing as Counsel), I observed the aftermath of a police raid there; about 3 or 4 police cars blocking Lanark Place. God knows why.
A flying boat capable of going nearly 6,000 miles without refuelling, at a cruising speed of 360 mph; maximum speed 380 mph.
The 105 passengers were carried in First and Tourist cabins.
As with the 1930s German airships, the Empire flying boats made in the UK were in some respects superior to the flying machines of today. As Francis Bacon observed, just because a thing is superseded by another thing does not mean that the latter is superior.
[“The Russian military struck Ukrainian infrastructure over the past day, the Defense Ministry reported: https://vk.cc/cIPYtl“— TASS]
“Labour must stop looking down on voters and start taking fears over immigration seriously”, says the Labour Prime Minister who has no plan for stopping the boats and is further liberalising the entire immigration system …
“Boris Johnson is no threat. He is the architect of all the decline & chaos you see around you today, all the mass uncontrolled immigration. If an architect destroyed your home you would never invite him back.”
[Matt Goodwin]
The only “threat” is that a huge number of dummies have still, after everything, not yet awoken to the utter uselessness of “Boris” Johnson.
I think that I can claim to have been one of the first not personally acquainted with Johnson to have realized that he was not only unfit morally to be MP, minister, and then Prime Minister, but actually intellectually incapable of doing any of those jobs.
I expressed my views first on Amazon book reviews from about 2002 (but was “cancelled” by Jewish lobby pressure sometime around 2010 or 2011); then on Twitter from 2010 until Jews again brought pressure on Twitter to “cancel” me (in 2018). Also, on the blog from 2017 to present.
Having said that, there are still a huge number of idiots, mainly Conservative Party members and voters, still willing to support “Boris”, so it is not inconceivable that he could return to Parliament, get Carpetbagger Kemi binned, then take over the “Conservative” Party again. I doubt, though, that that would propel the Cons to victory over Lab; it might save some existing Con Party seats, however.
If the Cons were set to lose about 80 seats, the loss might be reduced by half. Most of Reform’s likely victories henceforth, though, will be in seats presently held by Labour, not by the Con Party.
In the early 1940s, Jewish scientists created the atom bomb, with the idea of using it in Europe, especially on German cities. There was a possibility, theoretically, that the first test detonation would set Earth’s atmosphere on fire. They took the risk because to them, as Jews, killing the world’s only National Socialist state took priority over the survival of all life on Earth. See the kind of thinking they had? Zelensky is no different.
To me, provisionally, this Chernobyl attack looks very much like a “false flag”, trying to stop Trump and/or the EU leaders talking to Putin.
The fact is that Zelensky is not really a player . Without American or EU arms, ammunition, money, and other aid, “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) cannot continue to prosecute this drawn-out and agonizing war. Cut off the supply, and Zelensky’s regime implodes within days, certainly within weeks. He is a man of straw.
Something revealing happened on Question Time last night …
We had a debate about the small boats. As I say in the clip below, Labour Ministers like Jacqui Smith who claim Labour is fixing the crisis are lying to you.
Does anyone really watch BBC Question Time these days? I would guess a small tranche of the population, 55+ or 65+ in years, mostly. People who fail to see that it is just a rigged system propaganda show.
Looking at tweets, seems that one panellist was ignorant Labour-label expenses cheat Jacqui Smith [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacqui_Smith], who is basically a fraudster (she even claimed on her expenses for her husband’s TV porn-watching!) A total fraud. Member of Labour Friends of Israel, of course. Also, entirely without any intelligent or cultural mentality of any use. Chucked out of Parliament by the voters, only to be given a fake title of “Baroness” and put into the discredited “House of Lords”.
Oh, and the Jew scribbler George Monbiot was yet another System-approved guest last night, it seems, droning on about “appeasement” and saying that “Ukraine” (the Jewish/Zionist regime in Kiev) should be given “whatever it wants“.
Fiona Bruce, presenter, had asked about how Ukraine might “defeat Russia“. Of course Monbiot could not answer, and just waffled, because “Ukraine” cannot “defeat Russia“, a proper state (unlike “Ukraine), and with a population several times that of Ukraine, with a proper army, its own supplies of arms, ammunition, money, food, oil and gas etc, and a territory many times that of Ukraine (even on the pre-2014 borders).
Britain is in managed decline because Labour and the Tories are both committed to the Big Tax, Big State, Big Immigration, Big Net Zero consensus in Westminster that is ruining our once great country pic.twitter.com/htZGJxdEXb
The way things are going, Israel may be living on borrowed time. If Iran develops nuclear warheads, half the Jews in the world (those in Israel/Occupied Palestine) may go up in smoke.
Starmer is either a political idiot (maybe an idiot anyway, for all his “KC” and former “DPP” ranks…), or a puppet of “the usual suspects”; maybe both. I think both, really.
Imagine betting other people’s, the British people’s, money and future on a one-trick-pony like Zelensky, who has already lost.
Those tweets refer to the dishonest and/or negligent legal advice given to at least two of the three losing defendants in the libel case Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon (deceased) and Cantor.
Putin held a closed-door discussion with the Security Council regarding his recent conversation with US President Donald Trump, as well as the broader context of ongoing contacts with the United States, Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told TASS:https://t.co/Z0Ybzj9zLjpic.twitter.com/l8ICSsDGSo
…and who could blame them? A fake “state” headed by a drug-fuelled Jew-Zionist former comedian who is, at best, a loose cannon.
Is it only now that Zelensky realized that “Ukraine” was never going to join NATO? Yet stupid Starmer still pretends that the contrary is the case…
I think that that says more about Starmer’s lack of geopolitical grasp than anything. There again, Starmer is just an Israel-lobby puppet anyway.
Entry of a candidate-state into NATO (under its own rules) has to be approved by all NATO member-states. Several are now against even pretending that “Ukraine” can join or will join. The USA is the most important but others too. Hungary, Germany (though the Germans may pretend otherwise); I think a few others as well.
The pretence seems to be “not this year”, and not next year; maybe in or around 2030. Maybe. Maybe not. I think never. The fake “Ukraine” state may not even exist by 2030, or even 2026.
How long can NATO even exist? 2028? Were the USA to pull out of NATO, about two-thirds of its overall funding (funding including the funding of national forces and their arms and armament etc) would disappear.
Likewise, were the USA to take over Greenland (thus provoking Denmark, a full NATO member), the alliance would probably fall to pieces one way or the other.
It even occurs to me that Trump’s recent statements about taking over both Greenland (territory of Denmark) and Canada (a full NATO member) were actually designed to weaken NATO. I have no doubt that Putin and his circle welcomed (secretly) Trump’s outbursts. Is that too “conspiracy theory”? Maybe. Unsure.
A convicted Zimbabwean paedophile has been allowed to stay in Britain because he used the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) to claim he would face “hostility” if he was deported back (Telegraph)
“Total insanity. After already giving £101 MILLION to refurbish a removal centre to detain illegal migrants, Labour is now offering a £110 MILLION contract to cover welfare & health services for 130 migrants. Leave the ECHR. Put in deterrent. Stop the boats.“
[Matt Goodwin]
Absolutely mad.
Yvette Cooper should be [REDACTED]. Not only an anti-British would-be dictator and expenses fraudster, and also yet another member of Labour Friends of Israel, but totally incompetent as well.
…and all pro-Israel expenses cheat “Baroness” Jacqui Smith can do is bleat the same old and anyway untrue s**t about how Labour is “tackling the gangs“…
Sickening.
When will the people do what is necessary?
Talking point
Many MPs have lied on their CVs. Not just overblown their academic and work backgrounds, but lied outright. Iain Dunce “Duncan Smith” is but one. Rachel Reeves is far from being the only defaulter. She is, however, also egregiously hopeless at her job, which is even more relevant. Incidentally, yet another Labour Friends of Israel member.
Interesting to hear Patrick O’Flynn [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_O%27Flynn], former UKIP MEP and journalist, use the term “System” as I do on the blog (as when he says, there, “System people“). Is he one of the politicians and commentators who peruse my views, or is that simple co-incidence?
Reform are now beating Labour in the polls. Labour are losing a member every 10 minutes. Reform could soon overtake them there too.
But on WhatsApp Andrew Gwynne cheered on members leaving.
Labour is heading for annihilation because it has hundreds of idiots like him as MPs. pic.twitter.com/CqaskS736T
Unpleasantness ran and runs right though “New Labour”, and Starmer-Labour is just a pointless, meaningless offshoot of Blair-Brown “New Labour”.
Bastani is right, of course, about the appallingly-low quality of MPs. Since 1997 and, particularly, 2010 (and as often said by me on the blog), that fact is inescapable. Not just in fake Labour though; also true of the fake “Conservative” Party, and fake “Liberal Democrat” Party (remember Jo Swinson?).
Reform UK is “controlled opposition”, of course, but is moving the Overton Window. When that has moved far enough, social nationalism can enter the arena.
Blast from the past: the “Mrs Duffy” moment in 2010
Mrs Duffy, uneducated, “ignorant” etc, knew far more than “educated” fake “big brain”, globalist puppet Gordon Brown. In the past 15 years, her superior understanding of the mass immigration crisis (if not put in a very polished way, so be it) still resonates —in fact, more than even in 2010— whereas Gordon Brown is just a washed-up System politician now exposed as far from the great mind he (and his tendentious wife/carer/psychiatric nurse) thought.
Aaron Bastani is far from my position, ideologically. Having said that, he often speaks the truth as he sees it.
Both Lab and Con parties, the main two System parties, are losing all credibility; the LibDems, as “dustbin” or “default alternative” party, never had much to lose.
Trump, and Trump’s White House
Of course, it is easy to see the Trump White House as a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party, looking at recent tweets etc (see below)
Elon Musk's son tells Trump, “You’re not the President and you need to go away” pic.twitter.com/z3e09vbXBL
Looks as though Musk should have a word with the child’s nanny. The child seems short on good manners. (I have to admit that it made me laugh, though; look at Trump’s expression!).
Very odd. Where did the child hear that, to regurgitate it?
That scene really does seem mad, disorderly.
On the other hand, until Trump took over, the international situation, and several regional issues, seemed stuck in glacial mud. He has disrupted that pattern. As psychologists say, a “pattern-interrupt”.
It may seem absurd to want to buy Greenland, annex Canada, and turn the Jew-Zionist-devastated Gazan hellscape into a Mediterranean beach resort, but all of those ideas have at least made people think about alternative realities.
To compare Trump’s disruptive ideas to the campaigns of Alexander the Great may seem to stretch “first time tragedy, second time farce“, in the famous comment of Marx, to breaking point, but history is sometimes moved by ideas that seemed absurd.
Look at the state of Israel itself. When Herzl and others first came up with the idea of Israel as a state, they were just a few Jews in the lower strata of the Russian and Austro-Hungarian empires. Their ideas seemed crazed, and they themselves had no genuine ancestral link to Palestine, which was then one of the poorer provinces of the Ottoman Empire. Also, the Ottoman Empire might have been “the sick man of Europe” but it sat there, apparently immovable in its vast power.
Is Trump trying to make his Gaza plan (“Club Trump?) seem more credible by hiding it among even crazier-seeming plans? One thinks of stories by Arthur Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, and E.W. Hornung.
Where do you hide a pebble? On a beach. Where do you hide a murder? Among other apparently-similar murders. Where do you, as a fugitive person, hide? Not in isolated places but in a big city. So where do you hide your plan to seize Gaza? Among other apparently-mad plans.
A paranoid analysis, possibly; also, though, possibly, accurate.
Trump cannot realistically seize Canada. He cannot, either, seize Greenland, not without smashing NATO to pieces. He could, however, take over Gaza. The Israelis (quelle surprise) seem open to the idea. After all, from where would come most if not all inhabitants of the proposed Club Trump, Club Gaza? Israel, of course, or Jew-Zionist settlers from places such as New York City.
“Greater Israel”, in some form, seems more than a mere “conspiracy theory”.
When Trump was serving out his first term, this blog described him as “a loudly-squawking parrot in a gilded cage, guarded by a phalanx of Jews“, and that remains broadly the case, but perhaps less so in this second term. Trump no longer needs the Jewish lobby or Israel lobby for political purposes, though he would not want to make an enemy of them either, whether for political or business reasons.
Trump may be thinking in terms of “legacy”, especially after the assassination attempt(s).
Looks as though Trump is also determined to bring an end to the war in and around Ukraine. He must know that the quickest way to do that is to restrict or stop money, arms, and ammunition flowing to the Kiev regime.
That “charity” was set up by Rory Stewart himself. His wife was an employee of his prior to their marriage. I believe that she was married or engaged to someone else at the time. She is half-Jewish, I believe. See also:
My assessment of Stewart, published in 2019 and updated over the years, has proven to be fairly popular with readers. He himself is part-Jew, incidentally, a fact of which I admit I was unaware until an alert blog reader sent information (read the published assessment).
As for Stewart’s wife and that “artwork” etc, funny how “they” are always around when degenerate influences are promoted.
FACT: Whites are 9% of world population and must be protected as an endangered human species…rethink the racist model and see the truth: whites are being decimated by racism.
Ukraine's President Zelensky says he won't accept any peace deal reached between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin without Ukraine's involvement – follow live https://t.co/Hid5lUXJz6
Zelensky is living on borrowed time. How long before tidal waves of tanks roll into Kiev?
As soon as the money/arms/ammunition tap is shut off, or the flow reduced to a trickle, the Kiev regime will just implode. “Ukraine” is not a real state at all.
Full quote: “I welcome what the Minster has said from the despatch box. Can I ask the Minister if she agrees with me that in this new world, and in the event of any peace deal, that the United Kingdom and its European allies must lead in providing Ukraine with military support…
It always looks ludicrous when “British” politicians of today try to play the “war leader and statesman” card, even when they have some underwhelming “military experience”; neither Sunak nor Starmer have any at all. Neither, of course, has Maria Eagle, a former solicitor best known as MP for having been an expenses cheat [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Eagle#Expenses_controversy].
Maria Eagle is a member of Labour Friends of Israel, of course.
Look and learn. When “they” have power, as in Russia/Soviet Union after the Bolshevik “Revolution” (coup d’etat).
If some of the Palestinian Arabs sometimes do monstrous things, as on the day or two before the Israeli attack on Gaza in 2023, it is because they have been made monstrous by, mainly, Jewish/Israeli behaviour.
That might translate into a Commons with 276 Reform UK MPs! Also, according to Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html] 139 Lab, 108 Con, 59 LibDem, 4 green, 40 SNP; 24 others.
Still no majority (50 short), but I imagine that, under those circumstances, some Con MPs would defect, and others support ad hoc.
Were Reform to be able to get even one extra point, to 30%, then, even with other figures unchanged, its MP cadre would be around 298 (Lab 129, Con 95, LibDem 60).
Were Reform on 30% and Cons a point lower than in the opinion poll, i.e. on 20%, Reform would have 318 MPs, 8 short of a majority but with very close to a working majority. The Cons, though would have only 75 MPs.
For the long-established Conservative Party, effectively terminal. Not even the official Opposition. Maybe not even the third party.
Tim Montgomerie has recently opined that the Conservative Party might be expiring; for once, I agree with him. Or does he, belatedly, agree with me?
Fake “Labour” will decline but not so far or so fast, because about 20%, maybe more, of the electorate is now black/brown, and that percentage will increase inexorably, because few white/British children are being born. Virtually all the births now are from the ethnic minorities (who, within half a century, will certainly be the majority, unless action is taken to prevent that). They all vote Labour; at least 90% of them do.
Opinion polls suggest that among those aged 18-24, only about 5%, if that, vote Conservative; about 80% vote Labour. Who are those young voters? Largely, the non-whites.
So today we learn GDP-per-person down again in Britain. Why? Because all that mass low-skill, low-wage immigration is not making us more prosperous and productive as experts promised. On the contrary, it’s making us poorer and eroding living standards https://t.co/bH1j3G70WM
As the Dad’s Army character used to say (about inserting cold steel into the fuzzie-wuzzies) “they don’t like it up them!“
Rory Stewart, as “Conservative” Party MP, voted for all the mean-spirited social-security/”welfare” cuts of the 2010-2015 Cameron-Levita misgovernment. Now his (or his wife’s, which is effectively the same) far more generous “welfare” has been cut back, it’s all unfair and wrong, apparently.
Ha ha…
Florence of Belgravia reportedly makes £70k-a-month for being Alastair Campbell’s lap dog. And he’s moaning because his wife’s utterly pointless charity will no longer be getting $1m from hard-working US taxpayers so they can sell rugs hand-woven by oppressed Afghan women. https://t.co/H7g0eYuBAw
“An Afghan criminal whose asylum application was rejected drove a car into a crowd of demonstrators after reportedly posting a slew of Islamist rants online.
Farhad N., 24, injured at least 28 people, including a child after ploughing his Mini Cooper through a demonstration in Munich on Thursday. The child’s life is said to be in danger.

An opinion poll that should be perused closely by, inter alia, the police (including Hampshire Police, Gloucestershire Police, and Essex Police), and the “Clown” Prosecution Service, among other bodies.
I republish some of my own relevant experiences below:
“Britain’s in decline. Democracy has lost its way. Yes, many would squeal – but it’s no wonder so many of my generation believe it’s time for a dictator: CHARLIE DOWNES offers a provocative view.
Young people in the UK – born, like me, in the 21st century – are constantly told how lucky we are to have ‘freedom’.
To our parents and grandparents, steeped in the baggage of the Second World War, ‘freedom’ is the ultimate democratic right.
But many in Generation Z can see that our ‘free’ society has degenerated into instability and uncertainty.
If ‘freedom’ means being unable to afford a home, to live in overcrowded and overpriced rented accommodation, to work soulless jobs in order to pay sky-high taxes, and to have no sense of belonging or identity, perhaps freedom is not what we need.
So it’s no shock to read that a recent survey commissioned by Channel 4 found that 52 per cent of Britons aged 13 to 27 have lost faith in democracy and would welcome a dictator – a strong leader ‘who does not have to bother with parliament and elections’.
A third of my generation believe ‘the UK would be a better place if the Army was in charge’.
Other polls have found that many of us are likely to back the death penalty, while a Mail on Sunday survey this week found that two-thirds of us favour castrating sex offenders.
These reports have caused much alarm among liberal commentators – for whom democracy and the social contract are sacrosanct.
They don’t want to face the brutal truth that the social contract has been ripped up by a political class that has long refused to put the interests of ordinary British people first, or to deliver on our repeatedly expressed wishes at the ballot box – on immigration, crime, tax and much else.
Drug use, shoplifting and defrauding the state go unpunished. Millions of economically burdensome migrants from places and cultures vastly different from our own are invited in, housed and fed at our expense – and we are attacked and slurred as bigots if we complain.
As for democracy, it’s obvious from the visible decline in our country – which worsened after the 2008 financial crash and which has accelerated under Keir Starmer – that it isn’t delivering the right results.
Our supposed parliamentary rule is either an illusion, an anachronism or, if it does exist, clearly not fit for purpose.
After Labour’s landslide win last summer, it rapidly dawned on many of us who had voted for the first time that we were essentially politically impotent.
Britain is crying out for leadership that can steer the country to safety.
Gen Z’s demands are not unreasonable: fairer taxes, affordable homes, cheaper energy and an end to unlimited immigration.
We ask that everyone contributes their fair share and that crime is properly punished.
We want to trust our neighbours, and talk to them in our own language. We want a sense of identity and belonging.
Which is why, I believe, we now need decisive action: a leader who would declare a state of emergency in response to illegal migration.
Without a strong leader who can reverse deindustrialisation, neoliberal economic policy and mass immigration, our country seems condemned to a future of being riddled with crime, political strife and social unrest.
Yet perhaps, out of this ongoing catastrophe, renewal will come.
History, after all, has a way of throwing up great men or women when the hour calls for them.
…young people in particular recognise that political leaders of all parties have made an abysmal mess of running things. No wonder so many believe it’s time for a radical alternative.
It sounds drastic – because it is drastic.
But otherwise we all face the continued rule of grey, miserable politicians with grey, miserable ideas, dragging us towards disaster.
Of course, if people lack shelter, clothing, warmth, food, other needs and/or wants, then “freedom”, let alone the existing form of supposed “democracy”, will not seem of the most pressing importance.
One has to wonder why the Daily Mail is allowing such views, those of this Charlie Downes, to be blasted so explosively on its pages. It seems to me that the main reason is that the Conservative Party is as good as dead among the vast majority of the electorate, and the Labour Party is in a similar condition except that it is still psychologically embedded in the mentality of the voters of much of the North of England and, also, most of the blacks and browns vote Labour en masse, and they are now 20% of the whole electorate, much more in the great cities.
Labour support among white people (the people formerly known as British) is no more than about 10% (at most), in reality. Maybe only 5%.
The Daily Mail’s owners, and others, now look for a party neither socialist nor national socialist/social nationalist but which may capture mass support. Reform UK.
A quasi-dictatorial period may be necessary in the UK, but only if the policies are those I have promulgated on the blog over the past 8 years. Basically social national policies. Anything else is useless and wrongheaded.

“Before us, I see two possible futures: One where the United Kingdom is remembered as a cautionary tale — the lone state that took the doctrine of modern liberalism (mass immigration, social egalitarianism, net zero) to its logical conclusion, and descended into poverty, social unrest, ethnoreligious balkanisation, and civil war. Britain gave birth to liberalism, after all, so in a way this would be quite a fitting end. The other is one in which a new, daring elite forgoes all niceties and brings order to the British Isles. Perhaps we are seen as a pariah state for a while, having gone to war with modern liberalism — but when all is said and done, our nation is secure. I know which one I prefer.”

“The Conservative Party remains in complete denial. It thinks Reform will soon disappear and voters will forget the Tory years of broken promises and national decline. When will the once great party of Churchill and Thatcher wake up and draft a plan to put its house in order? The country still hasn’t been given even the beginnings of an explanation for why the party failed so comprehensively in the painful years of May, Boris, Truss and Sunak. Losing 251 MPs didn’t do the trick. Reform overtaking the Conservative Party in membership and opinion poll strength hasn’t shaken Badenoch or her throwback shadow cabinet. Even an exodus of donors has provoked little signs of life or resolve. The top tier of the party still thinks they’re the natural party of govt and that Labour unpopularity will eventually restore sense to the vast bulk of former Tory voters. Most Tory commentators are going along with this complacency. The lack of urgency and the modesty of Badenoch’s first 100 days really shocks me. I am beginning to contemplate that the party’s decline might be terminal.“

None of us are going back to Labour or Conservatives.
The desperation by both is hilarious.

Britain is so broke it is treating its own people in hospital corridors and car parks. So why are we funding feminist groups in Iraq, obese children in China and climate change farming in Nepal? https://t.co/LUzKW4zf2d
The following short essay from the American online publication National Vanguard was sent to me by a reader of the blog:
“Stalingrad and the Death of the West
SOMETIMES A MOMENTOUS event occurs whose significance is not recognized at the time but only becomes apparent later. So it was with the surrender of the last German defenders of the Stalingrad pocket on Feb. 2, 1943. At the time, every observer understood that it was a fatal turning point in the Second World War — after Stalingrad, a German victory by the force of arms was impossible. All the Soviets and the Allies had to do was to ignore their casualties and grind through to the finish.
But in retrospect, we can see that the defeat at Stalingrad was more than just the defeat of Adolf Hitler and National Socialist Germany: It was the beginning of the end of Western civilization. The 82 years that have passed since then have revealed this. What we are experiencing now — and will continue to experience in the decades ahead — is merely the winding down of a civilization and culture that has lasted 1,000 years. Had Hitler prevailed in the War, he would have revitalized Western civilization and extended its life another two or three hundred years — perhaps even the thousand years that he himself predicted. But Hitler did not prevail, and so the fate of the West was sealed.
One of the first to recognize the true significance of Stalingrad was the French author Louis-Ferdinand Céline, who said:
It’s Stalingrad. How’s that for catharsis! The fall of Stalingrad is the finish of Europe. There was a cataclysm. The core of it all was Stalingrad. There you can say it was finished and well-finished, the White civilization.
We agree with Céline — up to a point. What was “well finished” was not White civilization as a racial phenomenon but only the Western incarnation of White culture.
Adolf Hitler noted in Mein Kampf:
Every defeat can become the father of a subsequent victory, every lost war the cause of a later resurgence, every hardship the fertilization of human energy; and from every oppression the forces for a new spiritual rebirth can come — as long as the blood is kept pure. (Vol. I, Ch. 11, p. 327 Manheim; p. 605 Dalton; S/ 359)
That the West is doomed is beyond question. Yet, as long as there are Aryans of pure blood in the Universe, our culture and civilization can continue. That is what we National Socialists fight for today: not to preserve the rotting corpse of Western civilization but for the new racial rebirth of Aryandom that shall follow it!“
“For further elucidation of the fundamental idea expressed in this short article, see:
An Albanian criminal has been allowed to stay in the UK partly because his son will not eat foreign chicken nuggets. The judge allowed the appeal against deportation under the European Convention on Human Rights.
Labour want you to believe a big “crackdown” on illegal migration —600 arrests!— is underway
Reminder:
There are 1.2 million illegals in the UK. Labour has also decriminalised illegal migration. We have no deterrent. And no serious plan for fixing our broken borders.
Generation Z are much LESS likely than young people in the early 2000s to feel pride in Britain and much MORE likely to think Britain is “racist” (The Times)

We in the UK need only about 1% of the existing white (English/British) population, and zero percent of the rest. I do not say, though, that the 99% or more must be removed or eliminated, simply that we do not actually need them.
“A family cat in a quaint Northamptonshire village has been left traumatised after allegedly being targeted in a firework attack by a local parish councillor.
The shocking incident, captured on video, shows the cat being blasted after stepping into a birdhouse rigged with explosives.
The attack is believed to have been carried out by Councillor James Garnor, and is one of at least two such occurrences that took place in the village of Whittlebury.
It has been reported that Mr Garnor used remote-controlled devices to detonate explosives aimed at the animals.
Police were alerted in October 2023 when a local resident filed a complaint about the April 2023 attack.
While Garnor attended a voluntary interview and was shown footage of the April 9 incident, the authorities ultimately decided there was insufficient evidence to press criminal charges. Instead, he was addressed under anti-social behaviour legislation.
Nikki the owner of the attacked cat, Suki, has spoken about the disturbing effect the attack has had on the animal which suffered visible injuries such as singed whiskers.“

Such behaviour is still not appropriately punished in this country.

I happened to see that one of my earliest blog posts, written almost exactly 8 years ago in January 2017, and brief, had a couple of recent hits after all these years. Still worth reading, I think.
In two minds about that. First of all, the farmers may be notionally anti-socialist, but that never stops them from accepting all the subsidies and other freebies they can get, and they are not only ungrateful for getting heavily subsidised in the first place but also constantly demand more.
On the other hand, the farmers are one of the last few bastions of Britishness. Few are black, brown, Jewish, Muslim etc.
The German people should, before all else, demand repeal of all “holocaust” “denial” laws (and similar repressive laws), which criminalize free expression, and inhibit examination of history.
Until that is done, untruth will continue to permeate German history and public life.

I missed the reports of the recent death of farmer Tony Martin, imprisoned in 1999 for having shot some “travellers” (Irish tinkers) who had targeted his rundown farmhouse by night.
Martin was eventually released after having spent 3 years in prison, his initial conviction for murder having been downgraded on appeal to manslaughter. There had been a huge public outcry supporting Martin. I myself recall having posted a supportive postcard to him from Turkey when he was still sitting in prison. 2001. I wonder whether he ever received it.
I was unaware in 1999 and 2001 that Martin had (probably in the 1970s) supported the National Front [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Front_(UK)], and was related by marriage to Andrew Fountaine [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Fountaine, an interesting if slightly alarming character whom I once saw, and heard speak (at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London in 1975, when I was aged 18-19).
Martin should never have been prosecuted or even questioned (except pro-forma).

A health minister who hopes pensioners will be dead before the next election and a chancellor who withdraws the winter fuel allowance, Labour are a disgrace! 😡😡😡
Starmer and Andrew Gwynne may loath pensioners and want them dead before the next election, but they seem to have forgotten the millions of people coming towards retirement have had the winter fuel allowance snatched away from them and won’t forgive. Labour are dead in the water.
Jack Lopresti, former Italian ice-cream salesman and sometime TA (part-time) private soldier [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Lopresti] and MP (2010-2024) is in fact not “fighting” in Ukraine. He is sitting at a desk in Kiev.
Both Lopresti and his ex-wife, Andrea Jenkyns, lost their Commons seats in 2024. They were both members of Conservative Friends of Israel.
Lopresti seems rather unintelligent, and obviously has little idea of geopolitics, history, or anything else much. I expect he is being paid for his present role, and paid more than the peanuts pay, paid in local rubbish-money, that the Ukrainian soldiers get (when paid at all).
Incidentally, nearly 6 years ago, I penned an assessment of Andrea Jenkyns:
There are two (or three) main arguments against mass non-European immigration into the UK. One is both racial and cultural, meaning also societal, the other is economic. For me, the economic argument is not the primary one, but it is (obviously) hugely significant. The swamping of this country by non-whites is making us poorer and, until stopped and reversed, will continue to make us poorer as a country, as a population and, particularly as British individuals.
Do you trust Kemi Badenoch and the Conservative Party will lower immigration if they are returned to power?

“Just 1 in 20 visas that Britain handed out to immigrants in 2022-2023 went to people who are likely to make a net contribution to the economy”. https://t.co/amLAYUsp5d
There is a constant attempt in the msm to downplay immigration as a social and political issue, as if it is some kind of side-issue or non-issue. Far from it. It impacts every other social and political issue, from housing and water supply to policing, law and order, educational standards, transport, pay, State benefits (including pensions)— you name it.
Indeed, the System still tries to pretend that immigration is beneficial, both socially and economically, despite the enormous weight of evidence to the contrary. The level of deception and, on the part of the System drones themselves, self-deception, is almost incredible.
So we in the UK still have “compulsory blacks” in pretty much every TV drama, “soap”, TV ad, panel discussion etc. “Blacks with Everything”, to adapt the name of the well-known play by Arnold Wesker. I wrote about it some 6 years ago on the blog. That despite the fact that actual blacks (Africans, West Indians/Afro-Caribbean) make up “only” about 5% or 6% of the whole UK population.
The propaganda is not aimed, primarily, at persons of my age (68) or indeed those in their 50s, 40s, or even 30s, but at “the young” and, especially, at children whose critical faculties are relatively or completely undeveloped.
The aim of that sort of propaganda is to normalize both the multikulti society and, even more so, inter-racial relationships, resulting in mixed-race children and, ultimately, in an entirely mixed-race society (except at the top level), as provided for by the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan and, at least impliedly, by the Protocols of Zion:
A lot of fuss (whichever side you are on) over one runway at one major airport. Meanwhile, the fake “green” agenda has shut down much-needed power stations, damaged the automotive industry, interferes in various ways in the lives of tens of millions of British people, and for what? Really, for what?
In the words of Fleet Street in the past, “you read it here first!”. This blog predicted that Starmer and his cabal, once in government, would [pretend to] “solve” the “small boats” invasion by simply approving, whether in France or elsewhere, the asylum applications of 95% of the invaders. Likewise the problems of accommodating the invaders in the UK.
The migrant-invaders are, increasingly, being given accommodation across the country in council houses, other social housing, and B%B accommodation paid for by local councils (local people, in other words) and by taxpayers generally. They are, thus, less visible than when all concentrated in hotels. They simply become part of “the UK’s housing crisis” almost all of which is, in reality, an immigration crisis.

Very true. Apart from which, and despite the flaws adherent to all empires, the British Empire was great and, overall, or on the whole, something positive.
You only have to look at any TV quiz show, such as The Chase, Mastermind, or even University Challenge, to see that most English/British people have no real sense of their own history.
For many, it comes down to a few simple or cartoon views of a mere handful of periods such as Industrial Revolution, Victorian era, Henry VIII/Elizabeth I/Spanish Armada, maybe the English Civil War, and of course WW2 (largely, the Battle of Britain air war) with a few other individuals and events standing out as historical stalagmites, and usually thought of as isolated cameos, akin to the Swiss legend of Wilhelm Tell having to shoot an apple off the head of his son.
Robin Hood, William the Conqueror and the Battle of Hastings, Drake, maybe Waterloo, and Churchill (as indomitable hero leader, not as the warmonger and hopeless strategist who destroyed —thanks to US and Soviet alliances— not only the German Reich, but his own British Empire and those of all other European powers.
No wonder that so many silly people, if asked their views of the current migration-invasion, reply along the lines of “we have always had immigration— Romans, Saxons, Vikings, Normans, Huguenots...” etc, as if the invasion of this country by non-Europeans, in the millions, indeed the tens of millions, is effectively the same!
I have occasionally wondered what motivates idiots such as Socialist Worker Party demonstrators. Time after time (over the past 50+ years— https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialist_Workers_Party_(UK)), the said idiots turn up in the cold rain, wave their placards, shout slogans or insults, and achieve exactly nothing. For half a century. According to Wikipedia, there are about 2,500 paid up members, but the average turnout seems to be about a dozen.
Still, to expect reason from the unreasonable is itself unreasonable.
The SWP was established, like its predecessor orgs, by a Jew called Gluckstein, who took on the protective camouflage of a British-sounding name— “Tony Cliff” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Cliff].

Acc. to my use of Electoral Calculus, that would translate into Labour 300 seats, Cons 119, Reform 113, LibDems 71 (Greens 4, SNP 12 etc). So a Labour minority government propped up by SNP/LibDem/PC votes.
Still, with such a split, a point or two can make all the difference. One point less for Labour, one point more for Reform, and the picture looks very different: Lab 260, Reform 157, Cons 109, LibDems 71. The result would be a weaker Lab minority govt. even more reliant on LibDem (etc) support. Also, Reform rather than Cons as official Opposition.

“If a grown man believes that he is a woman, and takes steps to live his life to reflect that? Good for him. None of my business, it has absolutely nothing to do with me. However, when the rest of society is bullied into submission to accommodate that – we should draw the line. We should not tolerate being forced to call them women. It’s just not true. Certainly not allowing access to women’s sport, where a biological male has vast physical advantages. Trump’s position on this is the right one – it should be banned. It is entirely unfair and unjust. Women-only spaces must remain solely for women. The policing of our language on this, particularly in a medical context, has to stop. It’s dangerous, warped and does not represent actual reality. Men cannot get pregnant, and women cannot have a penis. Sorry, but that’s just a fact. And most of all? Stop forcing the idea that we can be born in the ‘wrong’ bodies on impressionable children. That poison needs to be kept AWAY from schools – ban it, and sack anyone in any position of authority who forces it on young boys and girls, potentially leading to permanent life-altering medical procedures. Grown adults are free to live their lives however they choose, but do not expect the rest of the country to change how it operates to accommodate this. We need to be respectful of individual choices, but we must not deny reality.”

The thing people need to realise is that the Government's problems aren't being created because they're pursuing some hard-line Left wing ideology. It's because the Ming Vase strategy meant Labour has entered government without any clear plan or strategy at all.
The “@louderry” tweeter ignores the fact (as she would, as a Labour-label supporter) that the continuing mass immigration or migration-invasion renders otiose any governmental plans to “bring in investment and fund public services” (even if Labour had any such plan, which I doubt).
The public services, in all senses, from NHS and police to water supplies and housing, are swamped, and will be swamped even more, by the ever-rising migrant tide. A million a year, in rough figures.
You still see tweets, or comments on rigged TV panel “discussion” shows, that the only reasons people don’t want mass immigration are because they do not want Indian or Pakistani NHS doctors with doubtful standards, or because they do not want to see blacks wandering about in their local area. Partly, yes, perhaps (and why should they have to tolerate that anyway?), but mainly it is because to import a population, every single year, the equivalent in size to that of Birmingham, or twice the size of that presently inhabiting Manchester, is a sure-fire recipe for total disaster.
It makes no difference at all whether the immigrants enter legally or not, except that the “illegals” are even less likely to have any useful qualifications or skills. The result, over generations, will be the same.
'No matter how admirable a #constitution may look upon paper, it will be ineffectual unless the unwritten constitution, the web of custom and convention, affirms an enduring moral order of obligation and personal responsibility'. Russel Kirk
This is exactly what those who favour a “written constitution” for the UK, or who come from the USA, often fail to understand. Britain does have a Constitution, and actually it is not entirely “unwritten”; it is contained in innumerable precedents, laws, customs, conventional procedures etc, but is not contained in one quasi-sacred document, as is the Constitution of the USA.
The best way to understand the British Constitution is to read a student text. English law undergraduate students, for example, usually have to take a Constitutional Law module in the first year of their degree.

“The regulations most destructive of growth are those created by moral panics — net zero, diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives (DEI), environmental social governance (ESG), “hate speech” and on. This government has created a new regulator every week. Each chips away at the ability of businesses to focus on selling their products and managing their employees. DEI and ESG are destroying the London Stock Exchange. The ludicrous proposal for a new football regulator will muck up one of our most successful sectors. Net zero is wrecking our automotive industry, our steel industry, our petrochemical industry, oil and gas businesses, farming, housebuilding … you name it. As Reeves is beginning to understand, net zero must be entirely put aside if we want to have growth.
No one is explaining the obvious: there is no money. In 1950, the UK had the fifth-highest GDP per capita in the world. Now we’re 27th and dropping. Yet we still act as though we have money to burn, spending more per capita on benefits than our wealth allows. We spend what “feels right” or seems “fair” rather than what we can afford. More prudent, formerly much poorer countries such as Poland are forecast to overtake us. Our brightest and best are leaving the country.”
In a sense, correct. My remedy, though, is of course not the same as that proposed in the Times (free-market pseudo-libertarianism), but a form of social nationalism.
Slightly to my surprise, I realised, after a week or two of Starmer-Labour, that the new Cabinet was clueless to an extent that rivalled or indeed outdid those of Cameron-Levita, Theresa May, “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss, and the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak.
“Rachel from Accounts and Customer Relations” is not even the worst of the bunch. I mean, just look at David Lammy!
That Times article has sensible elements, but then degenerates into a polemic against the Welfare State and even (up to a point) the State itself. The Ayn Rand poison (((poison))) has contaminated socio-political thought in both the USA and UK.
He may know about business and, perhaps, economics, but his socio-political understanding seems to leave much to be desired.
The polemic continues thus:
“Our focus should be on citizens’ responsibilities — to get a job, support themselves and their family and contribute to the tax base (53 per cent of citizens currently get more in benefits than they pay in taxes).
But who is going to say this? All the major political parties regard it as electoral suicide to oppose the pension triple lock, cut disability payments, scrap regulators. Just look at the hysterical reaction to Labour’s eminently sensible cuts in the winter fuel allowance. Political leaders got the message: we must pretend that current levels of government spending are entirely affordable. But until some politician can persuade the electorate of the hard realities of what’s needed to get us growing again, things can only get worse.”
So the “noble” “lord” supports taking away the winter fuel help for pensioners, supports reducing the State pension itself, and supports (further) impoverishing the sick and disabled etc? Terrible, and actually unnecessary.
I agree, though, that there must come a point at which the British people say “ENOUGH!”…but not to institute a society of “Ronnie Reagan meets Ayn Rand”. More like “English tradition meets National Socialism and social nationalism, and they meet the Threefold Social Order”…
In reality, everything that has been happening in all parts of occupied Palestine relates to the plan to settle immigrant Jews everywhere, then to expand Israeli Lebensraum and to create, over time, a “Greater Israel”:
“It’s not hard to figure out why Reform is now surging in the polls.
Millions of hardworking, tax-paying, law-abiding people in this country are utterly frustrated & fed-up with the elite consensus that has been imposed on them from above for the last 30 years.
An elite consensus that’s defined by a deliberate and extreme policy of mass, uncontrolled immigration which is making us poorer not richer, is driving crime and ushering in millions of people from culturally inferior and incompatible nations.
An elite consensus that’s given us broken borders which make a mockery of our claim to be a self-governing, sovereign nation, are allowing an assortment of murderers, rapists and criminals onto our streets, and which our so-called “leaders” refuse to fix because they’re more interested in helping strangers than protecting their own citizens and children.
An elite consensus that’s ripped open our economy to a rampant and relentless globalisation that benefits an alliance of urban elites, global corporations and immigrant workers but which is smashing the working class apart and hollowing out our national economy.
And an elite consensus that would rather see Britain waste billions of £££ overseas each year on foreign aid and trying to maintain our failing asylum system than redirect all this money from British taxpayers into fixing Britain and helping British families before reaching out to the wider world.
For much of the last thirty years this broken consensus has been imposed on the Forgotten Majority in this country by both Left and Right, by both Labour and the Tories —by the Uniparty. They are the architects of the disaster that you see around you today, of the managed decline of a once great and proud nation that you used to know and love but today no longer recognise.
And so just as you’d never invite back an architect who took the home that had been loved for generations and destroyed it the people out there are now starting to reject the architects of what they see around them today —endless, unavoidable, embarrassing, never-ending national decline.
They might not think Nigel Farage has all the answers. They might not think Reform is the perfect vessel. But what unites them is a feeling that is far more powerful than any one leader or party can convey. “We want our country back”.
This is why we are now starting to see wholesale and historic change in the national polls and, soon, the country. Because what I think we might be about to witness in British politics is not just a revolt against an out-of-touch elite minority but a full scale revolution against the Uniparty and all that it stands for.”

“‘No medical evidence’ to support Lucy Letby’s conviction, expert panel finds.
Babies the former nurse Lucy Letby was convicted of murdering were in fact the victims of “bad medical care” or deteriorated as a result of natural causes, an expert panel has concluded.
Outlining what the senior Conservative MP David Davis described as “one of worst injustices of recent times”, the international team told a press conference there was “no medical evidence” to support claims of deliberate harm.
A panel of experts, chaired by Dr Shoo Lee, examined the cases of 17 babies whom Letby was charged with murdering or harming at the Countess of Chester hospital in north-west England.
Lee, an emeritus professor at the University of Toronto, saidsaid the 14 experts had found “so many problems with the medical care” of the babies and nothing to support the claim they were attacked. “In summary, ladies and gentlemen, we did not find any murders,” he told a press conference in Westminster on Tuesday.”
[Guardian]
I personally have no fixed opinion at all on the matter (and have not read up on it in any great detail), but the way that the NHS now is, I do find it impossible to ignore the possibility that the unfortunate babies in question were not murdered but simply died as a result of poor care.
Also, if the Lucy Letby convictions turn out to have been unsafe, it would not be the first time that events triggering huge public anger will have also resulted in egregious miscarriages of justice.
David Davis has courage. He would have made a far better leader of the Conservative Party than any who actually were elected in the past 25-30 years.

Trump is promulgating tariffs on imports from a range of countries and blocs presently major trading partners with the USA. Canada and the EU, to name but two. China, too.
As many are pointing out, tariffs reduce trade, because they make imported goods (and/or services) more expensive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff.
Looked at from a different point of view, there are reasons why Trump’s tariff barriers might be positive for the USA, mainly because they might allow American industry, in decline for half a century, to revive.
“The tariff has been used as a political tool to establish an independent nation; for example, the United States Tariff Act of 1789, signed specifically on July 4, was called the “Second Declaration of Independence” by newspapers because it was intended to be the economic means to achieve the political goal of a sovereign and independent United States.[93]“
[Wikipedia].
In the short-term, Trump’s tariff’s may well cause domestic prices (within the USA) to inflate. In the longer-term, however, those tariffs may also create American jobs, and also increase America’s long-term security.
The USA is one of the few economies capable of being an autarky [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autarky]. Others would be Russia and mainland Europe (the EU, presently).
There is little doubt, though, that in those countries that produce items exported to the USA, the Trump tariffs will cause economic damage, possibly severe damage. That in turn will cause political fallout.
The USA is a huge and vibrant economy. If turned inward, that may be able to create the prosperity and job security so lacking at present in many American communities. The USA should have been isolationist in the 1940s and afterwards, as it had been in the 1930s. It seems to me that that would be a good policy now for the USA. Economic isolationism allied to political isolationism.
The USA should build up purely defensive military and naval power, but avoid doing what it has done, particularly, since 1941, i.e. interfere all over the world. If that is done, American security will thereby be increased.
