Why would any organization want to subject its staff to a programme of socio-political brainwashing by Jew-Zionists, especially a dishonest and malicious pack such as the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”]?

The next time that the “CAA” “executives” Falter and Silverman give sworn testimony in a criminal or civil legal case, they should be robustly cross-examined about finances, including how much they themselves are being paid for their disgusting activities.

The “CAA” is effectively a volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy in London.

There must be an investigation into, not only that recent piece of street theatre by Falter, but also into, and more importantly, the hooks that the “CAA” cabal have got into the police, CPS, TV people, radio people, and newspaper scribblers, not to mention both “Labour” and “Conservative” political facades, right up to the little Indian money-juggler presently posing as Prime Minister.

That chart shows very clearly just how disastrous, economically, the war with the German Reich was for Britain. If only Britain had had real statesmen able to see ahead, unlike stumbling, bumbling Churchill, whose military and naval ideas were rock-bottom (Gallipoli in WW1, and in WW2 Norway, Greece, Crete, Singapore etc), and whose social ideas were antiquated and unreal.

As the under-rated historian Correlli Barnett said in several of his books, after 1945 the UK had the choice of trying to maintain its worldwide Empire and being a major power, and/or of regenerating its economy and particularly its industrial manufacturing sector, and/or of creating a Welfare State. Only two (any two) of the three were possible of full achievement, but Britain tried to undertake all three simultaneously; that strategy failed, or partially failed. It had not the means (because of the War) to succeed in all three. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Correlli_Barnett.

Entirely typical of “them”. In the UK, such harassment and covert hostility is undertaken in a similar manner, mainly via Jew-Zionist groups such as the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”.

Apart from all the other lies of Gideon Falter, if he claims that he was taking a stroll after having attended a synagogue, that must also be untrue. Other Jews have said that Falter was out and about long before what the Jews call “schul” would have ended.

Also, as a former long-term near-Central London resident, I am unaware of any synagogue in the area around where Falter was performing his political street-theatre nuisance (in Aldwych); and even if I am wrong on that, as far as I know Falter lives mainly in the St. John’s Wood neighbourhood of NW London (quite close to my one-time home in Little Venice, London W9). There is a large synagogue in St. John’s Wood Road, and another one in Lauderdale Road, Maida Vale. Both far from the Aldwych/Kingsway area of London; miles away. How would any stroll take him that way, even forgetting about the ex-MOSSAD security staff and the film crew?

Falter, like all his “CAA” co-conspirators, is a liar, and an abuser of the legal system (and mainstream media) of this country.

Insp Parker-Phipps, whose laptop battery was “dying”, put the order in place at 10:00 GMT on November 26, but accidentally dated the form for November 24.

Mr Robinson’s defence lawyer, Alisdair Williamson KC, told the court there had been a “litany of catastrophic errors” in the Met’s handling of the incident.

Questioning the inspector, Mr Williamson said: “This document is not correct is it?

Can we have any confidence that there was a lawful order in place?”

To which the inspector replied: “No.”

Giving his ruling, District Judge Daniel Sternberg said: “I am not satisfied there was a legal authorisation.

“There is no case for you to answer.”

The hearing was attended by numerous supporters of Mr Robinson who filled the public gallery.

[BBC]

So the policeman directly in question, of the rank of inspector, wrongly-dated the crucial document? He also admitted —without equivocation— in court not only that he had wrongly-dated the document but, further, that that probably meant that the Order purportedly authorized had thereby been rendered unlawful.

What an unusually-helpful police witness. “Tommy Robinson” must have been born under a lucky star. Or something.

Much truth in that, but the elephant in the room that “Robinson” never mentions is the pervasive Israeli and Jewish influence in the UK.

Like Katie Hopkins, and a whole host of other “alt-Right” and similar activists, Robinson always seems to take the Israeli/Jewish/Zionist side of a false dichotomy.

There is a Jewish police organization which seems to have plenty of influence: see below— “CAA” liar Gideon Falter influencing (?) former Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, Cressida Dick, at Scotland Yard:

Finchley Road, so again in that Swiss Cottage/St. John’s Wood part of London.

No different from what Jewish terror squads did in Palestine/Israel in the 1940s. They blew up buildings, kidnapped and murdered British soldiers, and “ethnically-cleansed” whole villages, towns, and cities.

In Europe, Jewish terrorists even tried to poison the water supplies of London and some German cities, as well as attempting to bomb London indiscriminately, trying to kill as many British people as possible.

Incidentally, such Jewish terrorism, and other “activism”, did not come about by reason of the events of the Second World War. In 1933, as soon as the NSDAP under Adolf Hitler came to power, the web of “World Jewry” declared war on the new Germany. They, if you like, drew first blood.

Australia now is very different to the affluent and generally relaxed country I saw in the late 1960s. Controlled and tied down in so many ways, and far more stressed. Sydney itself has twice or more the population it had back then (then about 2M, now 5M+).

Another aspect that strikes (and puzzles) me is the almost caricature “Aussie” accent many now sport, including most of their politicians. That never used to be the case, not to that extent, as far as I can recall. There was a “strine”, yes, but it has become more accentuated, in fact almost become a joke, as one can hear from the woman in that clip.

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/mum-asked-man-pub-guess-32649993

A furious mum glassed a man in the face at a pub after he guessed she was four years older than she was.

Joanne Dodd launched her attack on Carl Cooper after he suggested she might be 43, when she was actually 39. The pair were having a light-hearted exchange in a Manchester pub beer garden before Carl went to the toilet to try and get away from an offended Joanne. But when he returned, she ran towards him twice and pushed her wine glass into his face, leaving him with a 10cm cut that narrowly missed his eye and needed stitches, as well as an injury to his thumb.

Manchester Crown Court heard Dodd was suffering from ‘low self esteem’ and was drinking heavily at the time of the attack. The mum-of-one pleaded guilty to inflicting grievous bodily harm, facing up to three years in jail under sentencing guidelines. But Judge Elizabeth Nicholls instead gave her a suspended sentence, explaining that despite there being no excuse for the crime, she could see that Dodd, who has no previous convictions, was a ‘hard working woman’, ‘loving mother’ and posed ‘no risk to the public’.

Dodd was sentenced to 12 months in prison, suspended for 12 months and was ordered to complete 180 hours of unpaid work and pay £800 in compensation to her victim.

[Daily Mirror]

So a woman who twice pushed a glass into the face of (what seems to have been) a complete stranger poses “no risk to the public“?

I suppose that it could be argued that the sentence is not unjust: the victim will (presumably) get that £800, and 180 hours of serf labour is pretty stiff, but the idea that such a defendant poses “no risk” is surely demonstrably untrue.

I suppose, also, that the only way to test the verdict of that judge is the method suggested by the judge to the jury in Gilbert and Sullivan’s Trial by Jury:

she says that when in drink, he hits her and kicks her; well, gentlemen of the jury, let’s make him tipsy…and see!

I think that the courts must start getting tough on violent crime, including violence committed in social settings such as pubs, and not infrequently by drunken women these days.

homeless woman says living in a bus shelter with her boyfriend and mum is safer than being put in temporary housing with drug addicts.

 ‘I’ve got a chest of drawers, a carpet.’ The family will now have to move out after Transport for West Midlands announced it was demolishing the bus shelter within weeks.

Destiny added: “They’ve said we’ve got a month left and they’re going to destroy it. I’ve been in here a long time, I don’t want them to destroy my home, we haven’t got anywhere else to live. If the council doesn’t help us we’re going to try and move into another bus stop.

Ha ha. If that little twerp thinks that the millions of Ukrainians now living in Poland, Germany, and many other countries are going to return to the brutal, corrupt, and shambolic dictatorship of Zelensky and the regime in Kiev, let alone join its ebbing armed forces, he is living in a land of fantasy.

Either this summer or later, there will be a general advance by Russian forces, moving north and west across Eastern Ukraine; perhaps even an approach or “podstup” near to Kiev itself, which region is now heavily defended.

The Kiev-regime forces are now entirely on the defensive, without the ability, troops or other means to attempt an advance, still less any offensive, after the failure of the last and half-hearted one in 2023. All they can do is launch occasional missile attacks on Russian territory, with the aim of causing a certain amount of damage to refineries, train lines, bridges etc.

No-one can rule guiltlessly” [Saint-Just] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Antoine_de_Saint-Just

Saturday quiz

Well, this week I merely equalled John Rentoul’s 5/10. I knew the answers to questions 1, 3, 7, 8, and 9. I was unsure about questions 4, 5, 6, and 10, and had no idea at all about question 2.

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13327677/Cambridge-university-race-researcher-equality-lies-dropped-backlash-students.html

A fellow at the University of Cambridge who has sparked backlash with his comments on race has been dropped by Emmanuel College where he was a research associate.

Nathan Cofnas, an early career research fellow in the Faculty of Philosophy, is understood to have had his relationship with the college ended following an investigation into his conduct.

Mr Cofnas came under fire in February after he published a blog post which claimed the number of black professors at Harvard would ‘approach zero’ in a meritocracy, and that ‘Blacks would disappear from almost all high-profile positions outside of sports and entertainment.’

He also dismissed equality between people of different ethnicities as a ‘thesis’ that is ‘based on lies’.

Mr Cofnas, who describes himself as a ‘race-realist’, is understood to have been informed of the college’s decision by letter on April 5, which stated his posts were in violation of its diversity and inclusion policies.

Last month, the first black man to ever be appointed to the head of a Cambridge College, Lord Simon Woolley, principal of Homerton College, held an event with students and the master of Emmanuel Doug Chalmers to discuss their concerns.

Lord Woolley, who was previously appointed by then-Prime Minister Theresa May to head the UK Government’s Race Disparity Unit, told the assembled students that free speech must be protected, but this did not extend to ‘abhorrent racism’.

Emmanuel’s Master Mr Chalmers had initially backed Mr Cofnas’ right to freedom of speech, but the college soon launched an investigation, alongside other probes by the University and the Leverhulme Trust, which provided him with a research grant.”

So the “diversity hire” has no understanding of the concept of free speech, or the concept of academic freedom, yet has been appointed principal of a Cambridge University college…

What a surprise, in the UK of 2024. Not.

The “Readers’ Comments” on that Daily Mail report are interesting. Almost every one supports the researcher, as do the votes on those comments.

Incidentally, the researcher in question is Jewish, so he cannot be described very plausibly as “Nazi” (nicht wahr?). See also a piece written on another subject by him: https://thecritic.co.uk/twilight-of-the-liberal-jew/.

Biden really ought to retire.

Russia cannot lose this war, and will not lose it.

“There is no plan B without the USA – Kiev.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine, Dmitry Kuleba, stated that this was the message he conveyed to his American counterpart, Anthony Blinken. However, he reiterated that for Ukraine there is no alternative to US military support, which already amounts to over 111 billion dollars since the beginning of the conflict with Russia in February 2022.

Rishi wants to get tough on the 850,000 more people on long term sick after ‘the pandemic.’ 1) You literally paid them to sit on the sofa & then wonder why work ethic changed. 2) You mandated novel interventions that have killed & injured people & increased the long term sick. 3) Universal credit costs about £80 billion. You wasted £310-410 billion over-reacting to ‘the pandemic.’

The little Indian money-juggler is trying to ape the vulgar and unpleasant attacks on the sick, disabled, and unemployed that characterized the 2010-2015 government of Cameron-Levita, Osborne, and Dunce Duncan Smith.

If Sunak thinks that this tired and derivative form of “gutter politics” will fly, he is very mistaken. I was looking at the “Readers’ Comments” in the Daily Mail on this. Only about 1% support the policy and/or think that it will ever be possible (or desirable) to implement it.

We read that there is currently an “epidemic of shoplifting“. What does Sunak imagine will be the result of cutting off the last peanuts lifeline to people, leaving them totally desperate, destitute, homeless etc?

If Sunak and the Conservative Party are trying to improve their electoral chances by this, they are in cloud-cuckoo land. The only people who will be impressed will be the hard core of unthinking Con voters aged 60+, and they will vote Con anyway.

Of course, none of the announced policies will be implemented, or implementable, prior to the General Election. The question therefore devolves to the response from Starmer and Rachel Reeves etc, who will probably be forming the next government. If they follow in Sunak’s footsteps, there could be something akin to an uprising eventually; certainly social upheaval.

Bismarck introduced the skeleton of a Welfare State in Germany 150 years ago, not because the Iron Chancellor was soft, or very kind-hearted, but because he wanted to divert any revolutionary sentiment in the masses. Looks like the UK’s pygmy politicos are going the other way.

A group of self-styled ‘Robin Hoods’ are bragging on social media that they stole from Marks & Spencer to give to food banks.

Campaigners from Everybody Eats, a group calling for direct action on food poverty, claim they launched their first raid at an M&S Foodhall in Chorlton-cum-Hardy, Manchester.

They also claim they will replicate ‘this all across the country’ until the government answers their demands on food security, The Telegraph reported.

Everybody Eats claimed that food banks were aware that the goods were stolen and suggested its members had been asked to help.

Ha ha!

Regular readers may recall my coverage of the end of a recent civil trial which went very badly for the Jew-Zionist pack so vocal on Twitter/X: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/04/18/diary-blog-18-april-2024/.

Now, more information. Seems that the egregious Israel-based Jew-Zionist solicitor, Mark Lewis, was involved (I was unaware of that until today, though did wonder when I saw a few tweets in the past week). He has messed up…again.

Lewis is actually a pretty poor lawyer anyway in my opinion (based partly on what I have read about him over the years), and he has in the past admitted that at times — apparently by reason of his prescribed medications, in part— he has, or has had, no idea of what he is or was doing.

Looks now as if that Cantor individual (of whom I know nothing, and of whom I had never heard until this case finished recently) will or might have to take legal action against Lewis himself if he is not to become homeless after his failed attempt to ruin a university academic. What a great pity…

It is not for me to pronounce on whether Lewis was negligent and/or dishonest in this particular case, but (once again) it seems that he has, shall we say, “questions to answer”.

Lewis, though now based in Israel, has a foothold in the UK as “partner” of a small law firm in West London.

Lewis is basically a self-publicist: see my previous (years ago) blog mentions of him.

That blog post contains links which detail many (though I think not all) of Lewis’s defaults.

There is a notorious Jew-Zionist cabal on Twitter/X, and in the UK mass media, which has been determined for years to present Lewis to a gullible Press readership, TV-watching public etc as “hot shot lawyer”, or (as often described) “top lawyer“.

The fact is that, when Lewis finally left the UK for Israel (to live in Israel) about 5 years ago, his own Counsel said (at his “trial” before a Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal in London, at which Lewis was found guilty of having posted savagely violent social media posts) that Lewis had “no assets” except his own clothes, a mobility scooter, and a private pension worth £70 a week. Even his car was being provided to him by the State disability benefit service, Motability.

Oddly (not), Lewis’s appearance before, and “conviction” by, the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal was not covered at all by the “occupied” UK msm, and only briefly by a few law magazines…

More:

Seems that James Wilson is, on the face of it, a little too kind. Those Jew-Zionist fanatics (the defendants Cantor and Mendelsohn, whoever they are —I had heard of the unpleasant Newbon) were, after all, quite willing to ruin Mr. Wilson if they could.

As for Lewis, he is, in my opinion, repeatedly unprofessional, quite apart from, also in my opinion, being very far from as effective as his fellow-fanatics try to make him appear.

Lewis’s Third Witness Statement says it— he “misunderstood“…

More on the other above-tweeted matter, i.e. Miller and Power v. Turner: https://luketurner.com/Deanna_Havas/Daniel_DC_Miller/; https://www.thegazette.co.uk/notice/4547224; https://luketurner.com/victory-in-high-court-libel-case-against-nina-power-and-daniel-dc-miller.

I myself had not heard of that legal case until today. Here is the full judgment: https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Miller-and-Power-v-Turner-08.11.23.pdf.

Lewis is no better than an “ambulance-chaser”, in my opinion.

I keep seeing on Twitter/X that Lewis must be a great defamation lawyer because he “won when representing ‘Jack Monroe’ against Katie Hopkins, who lost and had to sell her house.”

True, Katie Hopkins did lose that case, and did have to sell her house to pay the legal costs supposedly incurred by that fraudulent purveyor of 10p-a-dinner swill, “Jack Monroe” (Melissa Hadjicostas, before she changed her name).

What that story leaves out is that, firstly, Katie Hopkins was either badly advised or, as I believe was the case, not advised at all; she had no lawyers, and so persisted with a defence which was bound to fail. She never stood a chance, but her pride got in the way.

As for Lewis, a child could have won that case against Katie Hopkins.

So Lewis was trying to blag £600 an hour for his most recent defective advice? Well, he will get nothing now (again); he will have to keep the lights switched off in his flat in Eilat, and “collect the pennies on the empties”, as people used to say.

Typical Lewis: tries to intimidate people who have no assets beyond (perhaps) a residential property; they, he hopes, will settle and, crucially, pay supposed “costs” to Lewis, who then gets money without having had to win at trial.

Lewis should be (at long last) struck off the solicitors’ roll; as for Myerson, the matter should be placed before the Bar Standards Board. I hope that Mr. Wilson complains formally to the BSB about him. In the meantime, Myerson should not be permitted to sit as a Recorder (if he still is so permitted after his previous defaults).

See also: https://skwawkbox.org/2023/08/02/pro-israel-lawyer-lewis-heavily-criticised-by-judge-for-conduct-of-case/.

Yet another instance of Lewis having been, if not dishonest (?), then certainly negligent. That, at least, was the view of yet another High Court judge.

The world has had capitalist societies, socialist societies, feudal societies etc, but now, in the UK, has emerged a new form of society— the permanently “offended” society of fake “diversity”.

The Daily Mail and Jewish/Zionist so-called “charities” (including the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) are whining because someone convicted (on evidence that would have shamed the Star Chamber) in 2018, and then sentenced to 6.5 years, is being released a few months before the end of his full term expires.

Most prisoners are released at, or even before, the halfway point. In this case, that would have meant release in 2021, three years ago.

I hope that the State will not be so cruel as to deny the young couple the right to have their child returned to them. To do that would be absolutely evil.

If the newspaper report (penned by one Iwan Stone, incidentally) is correct, the couple intend to live in Portugal when they can. Good luck to them as they move on from all of this.

Have they not suffered enough?

For no obvious reason, The Merchant of Venice springs to mind. I have not seen a proper production being put on for quite a while.

Othello seems to be more popular.

Perhaps it always was; it has also inspired more adaptations and variations, as in this old noir:

A more natural way of life has to re-emerge in our society.

The little Indian money-juggler posing as Prime Minister is bought and paid for, like 80% of the MPs in the Westminster monkeyhouse.

No matter how much money the U.S. Government sends to the Kiev regime, no matter even how much armament and ammunition is sent, the Kiev regime cannot “win”, even to the extent of occupying the Donbass and Crimea.

The Kiev regime army is flagging as many desert the field, and many more avoid conscription. To be recruited by the Kiev regime army is to be sent to quite likely death or life-changing injury on the front-lines, which are now starting to collapse.

Ukraine is producing few children, and a quarter or more of its pre-2022 population is living outside Ukraine. If American and EU aid stopped, there would be no fighting within a few weeks, followed by either a negotiated armistice or Russian victory. As it is, it looks as though this brutal war will smoulder on for months, maybe even a year or two.

In the end, though, Russia will “win”, in the sense of taking over all of Eastern Ukraine, and possibly the coast as far as, and maybe beyond, Odessa.

I watched a few minutes of a very biased BBC World News report about the war. The reporter, some bearded fellow whose name I did not catch, did say something about why Ukrainians try to avoid fighting. Apart from the obvious dangers, open-ended service (no way of getting out) and poor conditions generally.

What, however, made the report farcical was said reporter’s then assertion that Ukraine is a “genuine democracy“. Hardy ha ha… A “genuine democracy” that now refuses to hold elections, has banned trade unions, which press-gangs people up to age 60 and beyond to serve as cannon-fodder on the collapsing front-lines, and which shoots dissidents, or holds them without trial in unpleasant camps and prisons.

I remain unsure as to whether Biden is making a philosophical point, or whether he is just confused. Hard to say. He really ought to retire.

Heartless monsters. Degenerates.

Not all the blame lies on one side, admittedly, but the historical blame, arising from the Jewish occupation of Palestine from, mainly, after the end of the Second World War, overshadows the whole situation.

Talking point

I have known a few, not many, Persians/Iranians in my life. One group was a family the head of which was a member of the Parliament in Iran under the Shah. When the Islamic Revolution happened, that man was hanged but his two sons were in London as students at Imperial College, living in a mansion flat in Little Venice bought for that purpose. Their mother was later allowed to join them. Exiles. I got to know them via a mutual friend when living in the same district of the capital.

I also became briefly acquainted, in 1976, before the Revolution, with two of the children of a wealthy Iranian/Persian family; I believe that, as with the first family, the family were large landowners. I saw a picture of their palatial house in some province or other, maybe Shiraz.

The children of that family were a young man whom I had met while travelling from London to Penzance by train one night (a First Class compartment but not a sleeper). He was a student (Architecture, I think, if memory serves), aged about the same as me (I was 19, I think).

Not long after, I was invited for an informal supper with the student and his sister, a charming young woman in her early twenties, who was working in Brighton as a nurse, I think. The family had bought two or maybe three bungalows in the same small close on the edge of that town so that various young family members could be together while in England. A young female cousin who lived across the way also attended.

I remember the evening partly because I arrived from London, and departed, on my motorbike, a Suzuki 250, and was able to use, for the first time, the then quite new M23, and which had almost no traffic at all in the mid/late evening. Hard to believe, today.

I lost touch with the student and his sister, and wonder what happened to them after the Revolution. I suppose that they too stayed on in the UK as exiles.

Over the years, I met the odd Iranian, and at one time (early 1980s) I was acquainted with an old fellow (as it then seemed), Edward Sykes (now long-deceased), who at one time, during WW2, had been sent to Teheran under diplomatic cover, but whose real job was to prepare to blow up and/or scout out the land for the sabotage of, numerous bridges, should German forces invade the country. Unlikely perhaps, but with the Wehrmacht already in the Caucasus and, on the other hand, in North Africa (menacing British-controlled Egypt and Palestine, and French-controlled Syria), not impossible.

Edward’s family was entangled with the Middle East. He lent me a massive two-volume large hardback copy of A History of Persia [https://archive.org/details/cu31924088418466] written by (I think) his father: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percy_Sykes.

I have no idea whether it was another member of that family who formulated the Sykes-Picot Agreement of 1916, which essentially carved up the Ottoman Empire, and thus the Middle and Near East: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sykes%E2%80%93Picot_Agreement. That Sykes was one Mark Sykes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Sykes.

A common-enough surname, but the Middle and Near East (and especially Persian) linkages are telling. cf: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Sykes_(writer), another Sykes with Persian, Arab, SAS and SOE links and experiences.

Edward Sykes met his wife (whose name, I regret, I cannot recall; maybe Judith…cannot remember for sure) when training at the military intelligence school set up in a former “hydro” (spa hotel) at Matlock, Derbyshire: https://www.derbyshiretimes.co.uk/arts-and-culture/derbyshires-top-secret-story-of-military-intelligence-revealed-4396084.

See also https://www.paradata.org.uk/media/13643; and https://calmview.derbyshire.gov.uk/calmview/Record.aspx?src=CalmView.Catalog&id=D6890&pos=730.

Edward’s wife was also there at Matlock, I think in the FANY [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Aid_Nursing_Yeomanry#Second_World_War]. She claimed that “he was a Captain, and I was washing the floors!” but in reality their backgrounds were, I apprehend, not dissimilar.

Anyway, Edward had a group of people from Surrey (I was in the first year of my law degree, and had moved for a while back to living with my parents at Reigate); those old people went trekking on public footpaths through woods and fields once a week, starting and finishing at a rural pub somewhere, the route meticulously planned out in advance. I think that most of those people had some kind of WW2 intelligence or connected background.

Those old people were tough! After the fairly long trek and lunchtime pub food (ploughman’s lunch, pint of beer), they were all still alert, but I always fell asleep in Edward’s car (he and his wife were neighbours of my parents) on the way back! A tough generation.

Edward told me that he had been tasked, during the War, with the kidnap of a high-ranking Iranian, General Zahedi, thought to be pro-German. This Edward accomplished by using the services of the then quite new SAS. The general was sent to Palestine in a plane.

The story is told on Wikipedia and in the memoirs of the egregious Fitzroy Maclean: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fazlollah_Zahedi; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fazlollah_Zahedi#Arrest_and_internment.

The story has a twist: later, that general’s son became, inter alia, Ambassador of the Shah in London, and invited Edward to a reception at the embassy, where he told Edward that his father had always said that he had not been badly treated in captivity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ardeshir_Zahedi.

What strikes me, looking at some of the high-ranking military and naval people under the present regime in Iran, is that quite a few have strongly Aryan/European looks. Unsurprising in a way, in that the Aryan migration from Atlantis to ancient India then gradually ebbed back in influence from east to west: ancient India, ancient Persia, the Middle Eastern cultures, to Greece and Rome, and then to our Northern European culture, both during classical times and then, more particularly, since the 15thC and Renaissance.

There is also the point that some of the Persian aristocracy married German women in the 20thC. I know that another sister of that student I met on a train was a natural blonde.

My own direct connection to Iran has been less than slight— a 2-hour refuelling stopover in 1967, in the early hours at the then Teheran Airport, at the time a deserted and gloomy building with nothing much happening.

So, instead of improving the Green Belt, and making it greener, Starmer’s pathetic “plan” is to build on it, creating inevitably-poor-quality housing developments, which will be occupied mainly by immigrants of various kinds. How do I know this? Because there are over a million arriving in the UK every single year now, and even if a couple of hundred thousand people leave (mostly Brits, fleeing to Australia, New Zealand etc), that still means that the population of the UK is increasing by half a million to a million every single year (almost entirely noin-European), despite the (white British) birthrate having fallen to an unprecedented low.

Immigration on the mass scale has to be stopped. If you like, make an exception for the odd brain surgeon or nuclear scientist, but that would be in the hundreds, not the hundreds of thousands.

The mass immigration to which the UK is now subject is unsustainable for several reasons. First, the very numbers; secondly, the fact that most of those coming in, not just the 5% or 10% on the “small boats”, are actually useless to the people of this country. There are further reasons as well.

True. The fact is that most MPs are either incompetent, or are corrupt, or are traitors to the future of the British people. Or all three.

London. Zoo.

Four ‘highly dangerous’ Hackney gang members including three brothers and a fourth man have been jailed for a total of 75 years after firing machine guns and pistols and possessing crack cocaine and heroin. Three brothers, Ryan Gordon, 31, Ramela Gordon, 28, both of Lynmouth Road, and Jameal Gordon, 32, of no fixed abode, were jailed at the Old Bailey on Wednesday, April 17.

On March 14, 2020, the Gordon brothers discharged a number of rounds from the Uzi sub machine gun into a block of flats targeting an opposing gang. One of the bullets injured a member of the public passing by on their way home from work.

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

Ukraine will soon receive new air defense systems , NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg believes. Ministers at the Alliance-Ukraine meeting agreed to speed up aid deliveries to Kyiv, he added.

Earlier, Russian leader Vladimir Putin stated that Western weapons can still be supplied to Kiev and used in the fighting, but this will only prolong the conflict.

Whitty strikes me as the sort of bureaucrat who, as Khrushchev said of Malenkov, should never be given power (admittedly, the second part might have applied to Khrushchev himself).

US aid and military involvement in the Israel-Iran fight might yet lead to entanglement and a possible superpower nuclear confrontation; US military involvement, directly, in the Russia-Ukraine war would almost certainly lead to nuclear war before very long. That is the difference. That, and the fact that the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby effectively rules over American politics. Most of their politicians are under control, basically.

Ha ha! So 51% of young Frenchmen are willing to fight for “Ukraine” (the regime in Kiev)? If it were even 5%, I should be amazed.

The shark can smell blood in the water a mile off when it is hungry” [John le Carre, The Spy Who Came in from the Cold].

The Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby would like to criminalize any criticism of Jewish or Israeli behaviour, and also any positive or even neutral analysis of the enemies of Israel.

Britain was once known as the home of free speech. No longer.

Incidentally, should any generous persons like to help me defray the Court-imposed costs of my recent free speech trial, the link is here: https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J. If you cannot donate, at least share the link. Thank you.

A much-overworked word, “top”, as shown in that tweet. Likewise, barristers and other lawyers are often (and usually wrongly) described as “top“; as in “top lawyer Mark Lewis“, which years ago was used re. Mark Lewis, the Jewish Zionist solicitor briefly well-known a decade or more ago during the “phonehacking” affair, who fled to Israel several years ago following his “conviction” by a Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal for having posted some violently insulting social media posts.

Despite Lewis having been described for several years as “top lawyer” by various msm outlets, Lewis’s own Counsel at that Tribunal hearing said that Lewis owned only his clothes, a mobility scooter, and a private pension worth £70 per week.

Moral of the story? Never trust the msm.

If anyone wants to read more about Lewis, use the search box on the blog.

The flip-side of “top” may be “disgraced“, as (again, wrongly) used about me by “the usual suspects” and their scribbler dupes in the msm; in my case by reason of my (wrongful and unlawful) disbarment in 2016 and my recent conviction for having allegedly posted [the truth] on this blog.

Top“, in that sense, is what might be called “Sun-speak”, used in tabloid “newspapers” but rarely in real life, along with “scorcher“, “fury“, “tot” (for a small child, not a small drink of spirits), and”far-right” (social-national) etc.

Hasn’t Goodwin worked out what forces are really behind the EU and NWO? (((you know who)))…

“They” always try to shut down free speech.

Goodwin may need to not antagonize “the usual suspects”, though.

Controlled opposition.

I often say that, but some (pro-immigration) people think that they “know better” than me…

It is very unlikely that Israel will still be in existence in 2034.

“Israel will surely respond to the Iranian attack, the question is in scale, instruments and time, according to Grigory Lukyanov, research associate of the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Israel’s entire security strategy is built on the maxim that no attack on Israeli territory can go unanswered and that the answer must exceed the magnitude of the damage and the blow inflicted on Israel and its interests.”

What Gullis prefers not to understand is that people are voting, or intending to vote, Reform UK not because they expect their candidates, most of them, to win Commons seats or other elected positions (beyond local council level), but precisely because they know that voting Reform UK will hole the Conservative ship below the waterline, and sink it, along with the Conservative candidates.

Those voting Reform UK want to punish the existing government of clowns, even at the expense of inviting into government another bunch of clowns possibly even more toxic.

Polls show that almost all Reform UK voters believe that Reform UK will win few seats; even in their own constituencies where they vote, most (60%) do not believe that the Reform candidate will win.

What those voters are doing is making a protest vote against the whole rigged Westminster system, FPTP etc; they are also punishing the Conservative Party for being so useless generally, and especially on immigration and migration invasion, on law and order, and on things like NHS services. They are passing judgment on the Conservative Party, as well as saying “we want and deserve better” and “we want our country back” (which latter may or may not be possible now).

Reform UK voters, most of them, would never vote directly for Labour, not even tactically, but are going to steel themselves to vote Reform UK knowing that Labour victories, and some LibDem victories, will be the result. If Reform UK wins a few Commons seats, then (for those voters) that would be a bonus.

An appeal such as that by Gullis probably encourages Reform UK intending voters to stick to their guns.

[Update, 15 May 2024: Well, Gullis has now had his answer— Labour won that mayoral election, if only “by a neck, cleverly”, as they say on the racecourse. Labour 37.8%, Conservative 37.5%, Independent 11.7%, Reform UK 5.8%, and Greens 5.2%. The Con candidate would probably have won if Reform UK did not exist; most Reform UK voters would have voted Con, were the present Government not so utterly useless. There were few votes separating Con and Lab— 1,508 votes, in fact. The Reform UK candidate attracted 34,471 votes… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_West_Midlands_mayoral_election].

The result of constant msm propaganda. There is no reason for there to be a Third World War because of either the Ukraine situation or that in and around Israel, but certain groups in the West, mainly, are pushing for war.

Incidentally, what you rarely see is how Israel is, potentially, a threat, indeed a nuclear missile threat, to the UK and the rest of Europe:

I think that he means “unquestioning“, but yes.

Both UK and USA— corrupted.

Well, it could not be more clear what (((group))) is pulling Starmer’s strings. Everything about him, his political life, his personal life etc, makes that very clear. Putting it clearly, Starmer is a puppet.

When I had a Twitter account, it was one of a handful of individual Twitter accounts Icke followed; later, of course, the Jew-Zionist/pro-Israel cabal had me expelled, by pressuring Twitter (in 2018). Icke too, though he has returned, and I have not (and do not intend to return).

I once (about 1980) read an unpublished typescript in a dusty file (typed and placed in said file sometime around 1930 but a translation from a German original of about 1923) talking about how, within about 200 years (i.e. sometime around 2100 and thereafter), a web of part-human, part-robot “creatures” would criss-cross the Earth, but above the Earth (if I recall aright), and human beings would be to some extent dependent upon and in thrall to that web of intelligent human-robot creatures.

Was that just imaginative nonsense? I do not know but, looking at the Internet, looking at the rapid progress of AI, and looking at how human society is today already very dependent upon computerized systems etc (not only for physical activities but also for decision-making), I cannot simply dismiss it as over-imaginative speculation, or even a hoax.

I should like to read that manuscript again, if it still exists, but unfortunately I now have no access to the vault where it was stored.

Matt Goodwin, whose free speech has been interfered with, is very vocal in favour of Israel and the UK Jewish lobby. They are the main group shutting down free speech in the UK, and have been for decades. Goodwin should reflect on that old American saying “what goes around comes around“…

So how are we in the social-national world going to deal with the regime of those who will be “elected” dictators of the UK in less than a year (maybe only a few months)? Answers “on a postcard”, but don’t expect me to publish them— free speech is already all but dead in the UK, and the expected Labour Friends of Israel government of Starmer, Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper, Wes Streeting etc will finish the job, destroying what little is left of freedom of expression in this country.

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13307015/Charity-shop-golliwog-doll-sale-window-raise-money-cancer.html

[the “offending” golliwog; photo: Daily Mail]

A charity shop in North Yorkshire has caused a stir amongst local residents after putting a golliwog doll up for sale in its window for £4.50.

The teddy, considered by many to be a racist caricature of black people, was first spotted by shoppers in the window of Preloved, in Skipton, on Wednesday.

It was removed on the following Friday, as some residents labelled the display as ‘disgusting’ and vile’.

However, it is still understood to be for sale for £4.50 inside the store, which raises money for Cancer Support Yorkshire.

Resident Anne, a retired carer, said: ‘I was tempted to buy it just to remove it. 

In February 2023, police seized a collection of golliwog dolls from The White Hart Inn in Essex, following reports of a ‘suspected hate crime’.

A month later, the pub was forced to close its doors, after Heineken and Carlsberg told the owners to stop serving their beer.

A maintenance firm also refused to work on site.”

[Daily Mail]

The hysterical “anti-racist” nonsense continues, though I expect that it is confined to a relatively small if not very small minority. “Retired carer Anne” in that report, if she exists at all, is obviously a malicious old ideologue; she even went into the charity shop to harangue the staff. “Was tempted to buy it just to remove it” but…did not do so. “ I think I might go back and buy it just to stop it being displayed.” Yeah, right… Loony “anti-racist” cretin.

There is, in fact, nothing wrong with the golliwog as a mascot or toy; it was not meant to be anti-black or anything; golliwogs are or were (I supposed all but banned now) akin to teddy bears— beloved toys or “inanimate” companions for young children, as seen in the image below (said to be from the 1950s, though it may be earlier):

There is a madness abroad in this country, a kind of witch-hunt mentality, promoted by “the usual suspects”, the idiotic “antifa” dupes and, ultimately, by those behind the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.

Akin to the controlled opposition organizations and online “activists” of similar type seen in the UK.

As someone who spent about 3 years in Australia as a child aged 10-13 (early 1967-late 1969), I think that that is probably so, more or less.

We have seen this many times before: “global warming”/”climate change”, “Covid” “pandemic” (scamdemic/panicdemic), not to mention (virtually non-existent) “far-right” “terrorism” “danger” etc. The self-interested, ideologically-biased, often very very peculiar “experts” in this field or that.

Liz Truss and Woollyhead Trussbanger (Kwasi Kwarteng) should be punished, but I think I had better not suggest anything too specific on the blog, now that (as my recent trial indicated) free speech in the UK is all but dead, killed off by… shall I say… “them”…

Golliwogs are not the only victims of the new UK poundland police state (which will no doubt become even more insanely Stasi-like under Yvette Cooper and Starmer, the post-2024 Labour Friends of Israel tyrants); free speech is another victim, as is general freedom of expression.

Incidentally, my crowdfunder is still open for any donations to defray the costs of that trial. Thank you, and thanks for sharing the link: https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J.

Tel Aviv, other cities, and some thoughts about “new” cities

The events in Israel/Palestine have sparked a few thoughts.

Not very beautiful, but it is impressive all the same, when one thinks that, 150 years ago, there was very little if any urbanization, though the port of Jaffa, the original town in part of the location, has existed for 1,800 years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaffa.

“In 1906, a group of Jews, among them residents of Jaffa, followed the initiative of Akiva Aryeh Weiss and banded together to form the Ahuzat Bayit (lit. “homestead”) society. One of the society’s goals was to form a “Hebrew urban centre in a healthy environment, planned according to the rules of aesthetics and modern hygiene”.[32] The urban planning for the new city was influenced by the garden city movement.[33] The first 60 plots were purchased in Kerem Djebali near Jaffa by Jacobus Kann, a Dutch citizen, who registered them in his name to circumvent the Turkish prohibition on Jewish land acquisition.[34] Meir Dizengoff, later Tel Aviv’s first mayor, also joined the Ahuzat Bayit society.[35][36] His vision for Tel Aviv involved peaceful co-existence with Arabs.[37][unreliable source]

On 11 April 1909, 66 Jewish families gathered on a desolate sand dune to parcel out the land by lottery using seashells. This gathering is considered the official date of the establishment of Tel Aviv. The lottery was organised by Akiva Aryeh Weiss, president of the building society.[38][39] Weiss collected 120 sea shells on the beach, half of them white and half of them grey. The members’ names were written on the white shells and the plot numbers on the grey shells. A boy drew names from one box of shells and a girl drew plot numbers from the second box. A photographer, Abraham Soskin (b. 1881 in Russia, made aliyah 1906[40]), documented the event. The first water well was later dug at this site, located on what is today Rothschild Boulevard, across from Dizengoff House.[41] Within a year, HerzlAhad Ha’amYehuda HaleviLilienblum, and Rothschild streets were built; a water system was installed; and 66 houses (including some on six subdivided plots) were completed.”

[Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tel_Aviv].

Note, though, how even those first steps by the Jews were accompanied by the acquisition of land by subterfuge: “Jacobus Kann, a Dutch citizen, who registered them in his name to circumvent the Turkish prohibition on Jewish land acquisition“… [Wikipedia].

[Jaffa]
[Jaffa in foreground, with Tel Aviv in background]

The city of Tel Aviv grew rapidly as Jewish immigration increased in the 1920s and 1930s:

[Shadal Street, Tel Aviv, 1926]
[Rothschild Boulevard, Tel Aviv, late 1930s]
[Allenby Street, Tel Aviv, 1940]

It could be argued that, like so much of the world, Israel/Palestine would have been better had it stayed under European, in this case British, rule (the British having conquered the region during WW1, and then administered it under League of Nations mandate).

I have seen other “instant” cities, at least cities which have been founded from effectively nothing and then have mushroomed quite quickly (in historical terms). Salisbury, Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe) for one.

Incidentally, “Harare” was, pre-1980, the name of an African “township” (poor suburb outside the city).

“[Salisbury] was founded in 1890 by the Pioneer Column, a small military force of the British South Africa Company, and named Fort Salisbury after the British Prime Minister Lord Salisbury. Company administrators demarcated the city and ran it until Southern Rhodesia achieved responsible government in 1923.”

[Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harare]

[central Salisbury, Rhodesia, 1930]
[Jameson Avenue, Salisbury —now Samora Machel Avenue, Harare— in 1970]
[jacaranda trees in Salisbury, Rhodesia, now Harare, Zimbabwe]

I remember well how struck I was when I saw the flowering trees and bushes almost everywhere in the central and near-central parts of Salisbury. I have never been able to discover what were the quite large dark-green trees with football-sized spherical orange flowers that I saw quite often in 1977. Very beautiful.

[Monomatapa Hotel, Salisbury, Rhodesia, built 1974. I recall having a couple of beers there in 1977; someone abseiled down it for charity the same year; incidentally, that building project was completed despite UN sanctions]
[Eastgate Centre, Harare; only built in 1996, so not there when I saw the city in 1977; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastgate_Centre,_Harare]

In a way, a city such as Salisbury (now Harare) was even more impressive as a testament to human enterprise than somewhere such as Tel Aviv, which after all grew upon an existing port, Jaffa (or Yafa; the Jews call it Yafo). The location of Salisbury was almost terra nullius; only a few African tribesmen were in the area at the time of its foundation as a fort in 1890.

Population increases are always key. The present Harare has over 2M inhabitants; Tel Aviv (including autonomous suburbs etc) about 4M.

Another city, where I lived for a full year [1996-1997] is Almaty, Kazakhstan, founded (like Salisbury) as a fortified stockade in the late 19thC and called, by its Russian founders, Verny. Now, a city of over 2M inhabitants.

[part of Almaty, Kazakhstan]

I find rather fascinating cities —and whole states and societies— which grow from almost nothing in a relatively short space of time. One, which I saw in its construction phase, was Milton Keynes [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milton_Keynes]. I knew it for a few months in early 1977; on returning a few times about 30 years later, the difference was incredible. Whole suburbs where only fields were before; a railway station where none existed before; a population of over 250,000 (in 1977, only a few thousand); bus services (in 1977, effectively non-existent); filling stations; large modern hotels.

I appeared as Counsel a couple of times in the years 2002-2007 at Milton Keynes County Court; in 1977, there was no such court; neither was there the whole Central Milton Keynes district where the Court and the railway station etc are now located.

I saw Doha, Qatar, in 2001. A sleepy and not unpleasant city. When I returned in 2008, Doha was already unrecognizable, a city of concrete and skyscrapers. Since then, a further transformation along the same lines. A kind of Manhattan-look in the desert, and on the Red Sea.

One thing I can say which is positive about the Israelis is that much —not all— of their town planning is pretty good, from what I have seen from photos etc. Many of their suburbs and towns seem well-planned, with trees, parks and leisure facilities.

Of course, the foundation and sometimes fast development of cities has a flip side: cities can sometimes disappear quickly as well.

Saudi Arabia is a useless, corrupt, decadent and hypocritical pseudo-theocracy.

Retired General Wesley Clark speaks about the USA’s plan to DESTROY 7 countries within 5 years in the Middle-East.

Did you know that the USA wanted us to completely destabilize the middle-east and turn it upside down? Did anyone ever tell you this? Has there been any public dialogue about this? Did Senators or congress denounce these plans!? NO, they have not!!” “They told me that they were invading Iraq and I asked, WHY!? They said, ‘sir, it’s much worse than that, we’re going to destroy 7 countries in 5 years’ : We’re going to start in Iraq, then Syria, then Lebanon, then Libya, then Somalia, then Sudan and we’re gonna finish with Iran.

The USA and allies already destroyed and demolished every country on this list except Iran – Who are the real terrorists that are terrorizing the entire planet? How can you hear this and not immediately think : Who the fuck is controlling the USA military and what is their real purpose? Who do they work for?

If you can’t use your critical thinking skills then you really don’t stand a chance at figuring shit out. The mainstream media creates your perception of reality on behalf of the globalists. The media is their strongest weapon of deception. Please STOP letting others shape your view of the world. Use your own brain and understand that we are up against a group of people/cult that runs and controls our world in secret. It’s OBVIOUSLY not easy to see through their deceit or else they wouldn’t have been in control of our planet for 100s, if not 1000s of years.

Most of which is effectively as said by me on Twitter (until the Jewish lobby had me expelled in 2018), and on this blog since late 2016. NWO/ZOG.

One can imagine what might happen were Israel to be more heavily attacked, or invaded.

It seems that the vast majority of cruise missiles and drones (though 99% seems very high) were destroyed in the air either by Israeli forces or by US, UK, French, Jordanian and Saudi aircraft.

Whoever supplies weapons wants war,” AfD leader in Thuringia against arming Kyiv.

Three-quarters of the residents of East German Thuringia oppose arms supplies to Ukraine; the right-wing Alternative for Germany may win the land elections in this land for the first time. The head of the regional branch of the AfD, Bjorn Höcke, demanded that Germany stop supplying weapons to Kyiv and organize negotiations.

“My grandparents told me what war is, so I say that this war must be ended as quickly as possible and at any cost,” Höcke said on Die Welt. He accused his opponent’s party, the CDU, of inciting the conflict. “The war rhetoric of the CDU will not lead to real progress,” “we need Germany as a peacekeeping power.”

He pointed out that Russia did not shy away from negotiations, results were achieved in Istanbul in 2022, but the West and Germany did not want them, and chose military supplies rather than diplomacy. “Whoever supplies the weapons does not want peace, he wants war,” Höcke concluded.”

As many as 82 percent of Germans do not believe that Ukraine can defeat Russia with the support of the West.

IN AUGUST 2023, 70 PERCENT DOUBTED THE POSITIVE OUTCOME OF THE CONFLICT FOR KYIV.

ONLY eight percent of Germans believe that Ukraine can win a confrontation with Russia thanks to Western weapons. This was shown by a survey commissioned by the German television station ZDF. Also: that 82 percent of respondents are skeptical about the possibility of Ukraine winning the conflict with the Russian Federation. ZDF indicated that in August of last year, the share of skeptics in Germany was 70 percent, and those who believed in a positive outcome for Kyiv were 21 percent.

The same survey showed that 42% of Germans surveyed believe that the West should provide more [humanitarian] aid to Ukraine.

Good grief. Reminiscent of the 1960s spy-spoof TV series, Get Smart. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Get_Smart.

Kiev and the West are tired of war and of each other.

What a small group of objective, but long-maligned observers in the West warned about for a long time, is now happening: Ukraine and the West are losing the war against Russia.

The strategy of using Ukraine to either isolate and slowly suffocate Russia or to defeat and degrade it in a proxy war is approaching its predictable disastrous end.”

As I have been saying on the blog (for the past 18 months) would happen.

That Milei character is quite obviously mentally disordered, and “they” are taking advantage of his mental state.

Good news for Russia (and Iran), inter alia; bad news for the major economies of the West, and perhaps for China.

Liz Truss and Woollyhead Trussbanger (Kwasi Kwarteng) as Prime Minister and Chancellor of the Exchequer of the United Kingdom. What does that say about where this poor country now is? (the replacement of Liz Truss by Sunak, the little Indian money-juggler, makes only a cosmetic difference). I know what I think.

A Home Office Islamic Network aims to recruit Muslim staff and “influence policymakers” to support “Muslim needs”, a GB News investigation reveals. Leaked documents show the group of over 700 civil servants say they aim to “promote the recruitment, retention and progression of Muslim staff in the Home Office” and “influence policymakers so that policy is more inclusive of Muslim needs”. THE WHOLE CIVIL SERVICE ARE THE ENEMY WITHIN.”

To adapt and substitute the supposed words of Boris Savinkov re. non-Russians in the “Russian” Revolution, “Muslims, Jews…where are the English?!

Look at most of the “alt-right” msm and/or social media “controlled opposition” types, the so-called “populists”, including those who make money, or try to make money, out of being pseudo-national and/or anti-Islam or anti-Islamist: the academic, Matt Goodwin, is a rising star of that tendency; others include the notorious Douglas Murray, Katie Hopkins, “Tommy Robinson”, Paul Golding and most of the “Britain First” crowd, and Anne Marie Waters of the now-defunct “For Britain” group. Then you have Farage, Tice, and their UKIP/Brexit Party/Reform UK parties.

They vary. Some are national figures with considerable public support, and are welcomed on msm platforms (e.g. Farage, and Matt Goodwin); others are marginal (e.g. Paul Golding of “Britain First”, Laurence Fox and his tiny Reclaim Party, and others). All, however, speak in favour of Israel, in favour of the UK Jewish lobby, and against any enemies (especially Islamist enemies) of Israel.

Most are also vehemently hostile to what they are pleased to call the “far right” (anyone social-national).

Look at the similar types overseas, too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geert_Wilders#Views_on_Israel_and_Palestine.

As for me, I stand for the British people, for European humanity, and for European culture and civilization. I oppose any enemies of European culture and civilization.

One can see, though, which tendency or interest-group is constantly trying to get European Christendom to fight the Islamic world (and not just Islamism).

I have just seen this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alex_Phillips_(TV_presenter).

Alexandra Lesley Phillips (born 26 December 1983) is a British journalist and former politician. She served as a Brexit Party member of the European Parliament (MEP) for the South East England constituency from 2019 to 2020. She was the second candidate on the party’s list for the constituency after party leader Nigel Farage.[1] Phillips was previously head of media at the UK Independence Party (UKIP), which she left in September 2016. She was a GB News presenter between June 2021 and September 2022. In February 2023, Phillips joined Reform UK.

Alexandra Lesley Phillips was born on 26 December 1983 in Gloucester.[2] She has an older brother. She is Jewish.

On 2 August 2019, Phillips was selected as the Brexit Party’s prospective parliamentary candidate (PPC) for Southampton Itchen.[15] However, on 11 November 2019, the Brexit Party announced that it would not stand in incumbent Conservative seats.[16] The following day, Phillips announced that she would not be voting in the general election as she had been “disenfranchised” by her party.[17] Her term as MEP ended in January 2020 when the UK withdrew from the EU.[18] In February 2023, she joined Reform UK (successor to the Brexit Party) as a policy adviser to party leader Richard Tice.[19]

Prior to joining UKIP, Phillips had worked as a local journalist for ITV, and later BBC Wales.[5]

Phillips presented a twice-weekly show on talkRADIO and is a contributor to The Daily Telegraph.[20] She co-hosted an afternoon programme on GB News with Simon McCoy between June and August 2021.[21][22] After McCoy moved to the breakfast show, she was given her own show, The Afternoon Agenda, in August 2021.[23] She left GB News in September 2022 after her show was cancelled.[24] In July 2023 Alex began presenting a Saturday afternoon programme on TalkTV. She now co hosts a show with Kevin O’Sullivan on talk tv daily.”

Look at that one profile: UKIP, Brexit Party, Reform UK, ITV, BBC Wales, TalkRadio, GB News, Talk TV, and the Daily Telegraph.

Counting the rounds, I made that a total of 11, not 8.

Thus proving, once again, that at least a substantial minority of UK voters, and about half of Conservative Party voters, are absolutely brainless.

The only reason a slight majority think that life is better now than in the 1960s and 1970s is because a constant drip-feed of propaganda tells them so. Most of the respondents would have been born after 1980 or 1975, of course.

The 1970s in the UK were a lot better than most people today will believe, despite some (actually quite limited) industrial unrest etc.

As for the 1960s, I remember them well, having been born in 1956. Fairly OK in most respects (I should add that I spent the last three years of that decade in Australia (Mosman/Cremorne, in Sydney), and that was another world then, though the devil is always in the detail: those were —and are— among the better suburbs of the city.

By my use of Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html], that comes out as leaving the Conservative Party with about 35 MPs (Lab 527, LibDem 48).

Looking at the above tracker graph, the Labour intended vote has been fairly stable (within parameters) for about a year or so, whereas the Conservative Party intended vote has steadily declined for what seems to have been most of the past year. They’re toast…

Were the Con percentage to decline even one point, to 18%, even without an increase in any of the other numbers, the number of Con MPs would reduce to only 28.

When you see that, and factor in the political intentions of those under 40, and under 30, and the fact that the Con core vote consists largely of the retired, indeed of those over 70, over 80, you can see that this really could spell the end of the Conservative Party.

In fact, even were the Conservative Party to retain 100, even 150, MPs, it would be all but irrelevant in a Commons with 450+ Labour MPs, and a Labour majority of maybe 300 or more. That would hit Con Party funding and ability to come back from the debacle.

I was just musing on such ideas as I carefully drove a few miles this morning on a rural A-road, its surfacing poor and dotted with troughs and potholes which one had to navigate around, as in some areas of Russia and Ukraine (or, in pre-EU-membership days, in Bulgaria, as I recall from 2001). The decline of Britain is seen even in mundane areas such as road maintenance.

How strange. The little Indian money-juggler did not see fit to “condemn” the slaughter, by the Israeli forces, of tens of thousands of women an d children in Gaza, nor the unprovoked attack by Israel on the diplomatic and consular offices of Iran in Syria, an attack on two sovereign states.

Ukrainian failure will be “worse than Vietnam” for the West, Johnson predicts.

If Russia takes control of Kyiv, it will become a disaster for “American leadership on the world stage” that is much greater than the outcome of the Vietnam War. Boris Johnson is sounding the alarm.

He also said he was “praying” that congressional Republicans would end the roughly $60 billion blockade of funding to Ukraine, adding: “The situation is grim and the delay is appalling.”

The British politician also said that the chaotic flight from Afghanistan in 2021 is “nothing compared to a possible Russian victory in Ukraine.”

There are exciting possibilities opening up, potentially affecting not only the Middle East, and Eastern Europe, but also Central and Western Europe, including the UK.

The USA lost any right to claim the “moral high ground” post-Cold War when it engaged in torture and/or depraved humiliation of captives and/or the innocent at Guantanamo Bay, Bagram, Abu Ghraib etc.

As for the UK, the old term “America’s poodle” covers it well enough (or “Israel’s poodle“, as far as the Westminster monkeyhouse is concerned).

my office…is besieged by asylum-seekers. Most of them are young men, illegal migrants, who should be expelled“.

Bravo!

Truth (for once) in the Westminster monkeyhouse.

Very few choose to join any of the armed forces now, because the services have no prestige, a poor career structure (certainly for “other ranks”), poor housing and, at the end, after 3, 5, 10, 22 or however many years, are just dumped into civilian life, in many cases without non-military skills, without accommodation, and without much money.

Another point is that some potential recruits are being forced to wait for months, even a year or more, before being approved by the rotten private contractor, Serco.

Back in 1975, I was told by someone in the Intelligence Corps of the British Army that some people were desperate to join immediately because they had no roof over their heads, and literally no money. The Corps would stretch a point, and allow them to come in even before the paperwork had been completed, and before any binding commitments had been made.

Such recruits would be given accommodation (at Templer Barracks, Ashford, Kent, now turned into a housing development like everything else in England), would eat in the NCO’s mess (there are no private soldiers in that Corps), and something would be found for them to do for a few days or a week while the necessary box-ticking was being done.

If accepted, they would join the next recruit squad; if not, they might go elsewhere in the Army or, at worst, leave having had a week of food and shelter; no harm done. Not now.

Apparently, the various military units at Ashford (the Intelligence Corps at Templer Barracks, and also the much larger ordinary Army base which surrounded the guarded Intelligence Corps centre) have long since been moved on, and the area, redeveloped as housing, is now known as Repton Park, though I have just seen that there is a small reserve Army military presence nearby even today.

George Henderson had to sell his home to repay nearly £20,000, years after ticking wrong box on carer’s allowance form.

A carer who says he was “dragged through the courts” and had to sell his home to pay back almost £20,000 in benefit overpayments is fighting to clear his name after the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) acknowledged he made an innocent mistake.

George Henderson, 64, said he made a gain of just 30p a week while claiming carer’s allowance for his son John, who has learning difficulties and is addicted to heroin. He now costs the Treasury £1,000 a month more in benefits, having become homeless and too unwell to work.”

[The Guardian]

Really absolutely disgusting. Britain in 2024.

Also, look at the sentence imposed by a Crown Court judge in respect of the matter:

He protested his innocence but was found guilty. In 2018, a judge at Preston crown court gave him a 32-week suspended sentence and ordered him to wear an electronic tag for 16 weeks.

Henderson is one of a number of carers the Guardian has spoken to after exposing how people looking after disabled, frail or ill relatives are being forced to repay huge sums to the government and threatened with criminal prosecution after unwittingly breaching earnings rules by just a few pounds a week.”

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/apr/11/lesser-of-two-evils-voters-in-sheffield-hallam-look-to-labour-with-reluctance

In the high street of Crookes, a leafy hillside suburb of Sheffield with a large student population, there were plenty of people saying they would vote Labour at the next general election – but most weren’t too happy about it.

“It feels like the lesser of two evils – it’s definitely better than going back to what we’ve got,” said Amy Pattison, a 24-year-old occupational therapy student at Sheffield Hallam university. “All I know is I won’t be voting Tory. And whatever I do vote will be tactical.

Most people said they would vote Labour for one simple reason – to get the Conservatives out of power.

I’ll be voting for Labour. But I’m more anti-Conservative than I am pro-Labour,” said Chris Macdonald, a 30-year-old teacher. “If our voting system was different I would be tempted by other parties, but it feels like it’s Labour or Tories, and I want them out.

[The Guardian]

That chimes with my feeling about overall voter sentiment. Few people really like the Starmer version of the Labour Party, but almost everyone wants the Conservative Party to go down (and preferably never get up again).

Scotland has better education than England” (they said). “Scottish people are both better-educated and shrewder than the English” (they said). So why have the Scots voted into government a bad-joke pseudo-nationalist or fake nationalist party headed now by a Pakistani clown? Why is Scottish Labour the same or similar? (“but answer came there none“)…

A Lady asked an old street vendor: “How much do you sell your eggs for?” The old man replied “0.50¢ an egg, madam.” The Lady responded, “I’ll take 6 eggs for $2.00 or I’m leaving.” The old salesman replied, “Buy them at the price you want, Madam. This is a good start for me because I haven’t sold a single egg today and I need this to live.” She bought her eggs at a bargain price and left with the feeling that she had won.

She got into her fancy car and went to a fancy restaurant with her friend. She and her friend ordered what they wanted. They ate a little and left a lot of what they had asked for. So they paid the bill, which was $150. The ladies gave $200 and told the fancy restaurant owner to keep the change as a tip.

This story might seem quite normal to the owner of the fancy restaurant, but very unfair to the egg seller. The question it raises is; Why do we always need to show that we have power when we buy from the needy? And why are we generous to those who don’t even need our generosity?

We once read somewhere that a father used to buy goods from poor people at a high price, even though he didn’t need the things. Sometimes he paid more for them. His children were amazed. One day they asked him “why are you doing this dad?” The father replied: “It’s charity wrapped in dignity.”

The UK needs, and the British people want, no immigration of any sort at all. The UK must start actually educating and training people properly to fulfil occupations requiring great skill and knowledge, and pay them properly as well.

Zelensky asks his military leadership for maximum defense of Kharkiv. Ritter is convinced that he will soon lose it HAS ASKED HIS OWNERS TO FORCE THE PRODUCTION OF DRONES WHICH HE THINKS WILL PLAY A MAJOR ROLE.

Scott RITTER: Now Russia is destroying military targets in Kharkiv on a daily basis, as the Ukrainian armed forces do not have enough ammunition for air defense systems. Soon the Russian army will surround that city, and Kiev will have to cede it. Such a future awaits any city in Ukraine that Russia decides to occupy, because the Ukrainian army cannot provide their sustainable defense.”

The British newspaper The Times estimated that the Russian army, if it succeeds in liberating Kharkiv, will surround the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Donbass.”

I am expecting a general advance of Russian armour and infantry, supported by air power, in 2024 and/or 2025. The Kiev-regime forces do not have the manpower to resist, or will soon not have. They are all now in purely defensive mode, despite the occasional missile or drone provocation attacking Russia itself.

It may be that that general advance will move west and north-west until most of Eastern Ukraine (i.e. east of the Dnieper) is occupied by Russian forces.

Kiev itself has been heavily fortified in defensive layers, including massive minefields. It may be that there will not be an attempt to storm Kiev until much later, in late 2025, or 2026.

The Kiev regime is draining armed forces personnel, arms, ammunition at a fairly rapid rate now. There may be some kind of palace revolution in Kiev, with the Jewish dictator, Zelensky, removed and forced into exile, along with his cabal and their stolen billions. At that point, peace talks may well occur and result in an armistice, even if no final or formal result or peace is possible.

Ironic. That Jewish woman once, quite a few years ago, tweeted openly to another one that I (together with some other person, entirely unknown to me) should be given a glass of strychnine to drink…

Compare that to the Profumo affair of the early 1960s. A Cabinet minister resigned merely for having had a secret girlfriend who happened to be also involved with the Soviet Naval Attache, and having lied about the affair.

The game is not…quite… at an end. There is still the possibility that a very small minority of Europeans (“Aryans” or, more accurately, post-Aryans) can take control sufficiently to vanquish evil and then create the basis for a new society which, eventually, over a long period of time, can become the foundation for an even later super-race.

[the Swastika, or Hakenkreuz, symbol of the positive evolution of consciousness]

As so often, people tweet or otherwise comment about the Muslim encroachment, and I have no argument about that, but they all too often ignore the fact of the far more powerful “Zionist” lobby, so embedded now in UK System politics, law, finance and business (obviously), and in the mainstream media and elsewhere.

Look at that cartoon. Islamic flags, but no Star of David or Israeli flags; yet which bloc or lobby is taking away freedom of expression in the UK? 90%+ of the repression is being co-ordinated by Jewish/Zionist and/or pro-Israel groups, such as the small but well-funded and very malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” kruzhok, which has attacked and tried to prosecute not only me but also such as Alison Chabloz, Al-Jazeera TV, David Icke, the Jewish —but anti-Israel— jazz musician Gilad Atzmon, and numerous others.

As far as my own situation is concerned, the “CAA” has engaged in a decade-long campaign against me (which fact the CAA admits, though saying it has been 7+ years-long). They also admit using the very peculiar Israel-lobby-owned “lord”, former MP Ian Austin, to pressure officials of the Crown (Clown) Prosecution Service, right up to the level of the Director of Public Prosecutions himself, to prosecute me on any basis that could be contrived.

The “CAA” (and their suborned dupes, the “Clown” Prosecution Service) were crowing online, including on Twitter/X, about having managed to get me convicted in November 2023, using the Communications Act 2003, s.127, a law so badly-drafted and unjust that the Law Commission has formally recommended its repeal, but the “CAA” has not tweeted at all about the sentence handed down in March 2024— 15 “rehabilitation” meetings with or via the Probation Service, and a costs order of £734 in all.

[I now, today, have just seen that the “CAA” website has published a long whining complaint that the sentence given to me was “scandalously lenient“. The “CAA” has nothing to complain about— its so-called “Director of Investigations and Enforcement” made a totally false allegation in 2021 that I had “racially abused” him. There was no evidence at all for that complaint, yet the individual has never been prosecuted, not yet anyway, for a quite plain attempted perversion of the course of justice].

Incidentally, should any kind persons wish to defray the costs imposed on me by the Court, donations can be made here: https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J.

So far, £235 has been raised, about a third of the minimum payment required, and I have agreed with the payment office of the Court to pay £91.75 per month (for 8 months).

The history of my decade of persecution by the “CAA” and the other involved group, “UK Lawyers for Israel” ([UKLFI”] (both presently to be seen supporting the slaughter in Gaza, and the latter responsible for the complaint against me that resulted, after 2+ years, in my getting disbarred in 2016) can be found, in part, here below:

See also: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/03/15/diary-blog-15-march-2024/; https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/03/16/diary-blog-16-march-2024/; https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/03/17/diary-blog-17-march-2024/.

I have little doubt that that “CAA” cabal will be trying to contrive another malicious complaint against me now that their 2021-2024 ones have fallen flat; fallen flat despite my 2023 conviction and 2024 sentence, because the sentence was fairly lenient (though I had hoped for an even-lighter sentence, a conditional discharge and/or small fine), and because the (rather fair-minded, in my opinion) sentencing judge refused to grant the pathetic —and pathetically-poorly drafted— Clown Crown Prosecution Service application to restrict what I say or publish on the blog.

Also, there was no suspended sentence of imprisonment— my written Defendant’s Argument on Sentence put paid to any idea of that sort, and Prosecution Counsel, to be fair, was not foolish enough to ask for one once the trial judge had effectively ruled that out at end of trial (let alone actual imprisonment).

Anyway, what that means is that, should the “CAA” and/or police and Clown Prosecution Service want to prosecute me again, i.e. for what has been posted on the blog since mid-November 2023, or what is being currently posted on the blog, they will have to start all over again, and if they were to do that (pointlessly wasting yet more tens of thousands of pounds of public money), the matter would probably not conclude until some time in 2025, or even later, were I to appeal any conviction and sentence (and, were I to be convicted again, an appeal might be more likely than it was in the 2023/2024 matter).

I should robustly defend any further attempt to prosecute me for anything, of course.

Actually, while I dispute that any of the material in respect of which I was recently convicted and sentenced was “grossly offensive” anyway, regular readers will have noted that the blog has, in the past months, taken on a more diplomatic and more thoughtful tone, while remaining staunch and steadfast in principle and ideology.

Incidentally, readers may like to know that no Prosecution application was made to the Court at trial or after sentence that any material should be removed from the blog. All the (5) blog posts (out of 1,800 posted since 2016) which were the subject-matter of the trial remain extant and, while naturally it is the wiser course for me not to link to them, browsing readers interested in seeing what nonsense the prosecution was can see all of those blog posts via the search box or otherwise.

Indeed, the Clown Prosecution Service and “CAA”, as well as the few mass media outlets that reported my conviction and/or sentence, have themselves republished most of the supposedly “grossly offensive” remarks about Jews allegedly first posted by me, thus spreading those remarks far and wide. Thank you, clowns!

My legal position now, in respect of the blog, is what it was this time last year, or indeed in 2022, 2021, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, and 2016 (when the blog started). The blog remains, all previous posts remain in place, and I continue to blog, despite the inevitably chilling effect on freedom of expression of the past year’s repressive legal process.
