7 men, inc 2 men who had previously been charged, will now face no further action as part of the investigation into the maritime security incident on board the Nave Andromeda off the #IsleOfWight in Oct. Read more: https://t.co/D9Hjn5IAbKpic.twitter.com/lzLQOLfCio
So 7 African migrant-invaders and stowaways, who threatened the captain and crew of a vessel in British territorial waters, necessitating a full-scale Special Boat Service operation (including “hot-roping” to the deck from helicopters overhead), will “face no further action”?
In other words, they have got away with it. The criminals are now in the UK, housed at public expense, fed at public expense, and paid pocket money out of public funds. Their first action now will be to get on their mobile phones and tell their friends and family to come and leech off us here. In fact, they probably already did that.
People like tweeter “HackerNuke” are ubiquitous on UK Twitter too. People who think that a good criticism of the Daily Mail is to say, “hey, you supported Mosley in the 1930s!“, which for one thing is not fully accurate (the Daily Mail support for Mosley lasted only from 1931 to 1934: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oswald_Mosley#Fascism).
In any case, Mosley was far more right than wrong in the 1930s.
Apart from which, that was, after all, 80-90 years ago. Today, the Daily Mail is very different, and pervaded by Jewish influence (google “Ian Millard barrister Daily Mail” and you will see how they tried to pillory me in 2016).
Similarly, you see people who call Tesco or Marks & Spencer “Jewish” companies, which may have been true once, but is no longer the case, and has not been so for decades. Institutional and other very large investors are now in the driving seat; those companies are no more “Jewish”, or Jewish-influenced, than much of the present UK economic sphere.
Betty Redondo, a BBC drone. Typical. That utter me-too political fool, Keir Starmer, also jumped on to the “clap” bandwagon a couple of days ago. Just before its wheels fell off! Ha ha! It just shows, again, how totally out of touch both the msm and Westminster milieux really are.
As I said yesterday, no-one where I live was clapping or banging pots and pans, thank God. That seems to have been the case all over, in fact.
Which they most certainly did last night. Not one person on our street was outside clapping at the altar of the NHS
Exactly. Annemarie Plas, whoever the hell she is, has had her 15 minutes of fame, but wanted to make some kind of career out of it all, as I blogged yesterday. She saw one-trick pony, Caroline Criado-Perez, make a kind of career out of similar “activism” (book deals, an OBE, paid speaking engagements etc), and thought to emulate her. She even tried to get a Christmas bell-ringing thing going on the same basis as the horrible clapping.
For me, the most horrible aesthetics of the UK panicdemic nonsense are or were, firstly, the facemask nonsense; after that, the mass clapping nonsense.
The fundamental problem is the country is not united. We have a number of folk working from cosy home offices whilst the rest rot with no income, no viable business or means to pay mortgage
So…whilst we're talking of trolls, lose the fairytale view of life and open your eyes.
Exactly. Its virtue signalling, little more. A lot of the negative response came from NHS and healthcare workers. They made their feelings clear the last time so why try and resurrect it? I don't think calling our NHS staff trolls is appropriate or helpful either tbh
Wasn’t just the day after Callum, it was also on the night, every Thursday night that went on in peoples gardens for hours on end. Tokenism that’s all it was.

@ClarkeMicah@emmakennytv Derbyshire Police said in a statement: "Driving to a location … is clearly not in the spirit of the national effort to reduce our travel, reduce the possible spread of the disease and reduce the number of deaths."https://t.co/MWLv36KTUK
Unsurprising, though infuriating. Derbyshire Police really have put the plod in policing. Look at the way in which they allowed themselves to be used by the Jewish lobby in the persecution of Alison Chabloz. That’s before you even get to their behaviour in behaving like a poundland KGB during the first “lockdown” craziness in 2020.
As to those women, they need to appeal those tickets tout de suite, while some semblance of justice still exists in the UK. They have obviously not been in breach of the law (the law, that is, not the wishes of Little Matt Hancock, or the arbitary decisions of the local police superintendent).
He was well-spoken and mostly polite, but his words were completely baseless and dangerous. I do not know how anyone could downplay the severity of the virus after hearing what he had just heard.

Read that thread. Read some of the comments by the Twitterati-twits, wishing death, illness, humiliation, imprisonment on that defendant.
What had that bad criminal done? Oh, he had attended a demonstration against “lockdown”, so of course had to be dragged to a court before a “judge” (district judge, i.e. magistrate), lectured by that purse-lipped woman (who seems to think that she is a female Judge Jeffreys), then fined £1,500. All for having tried to exercise normal civil rights in the midst of a bout of public hysteria whipped up by government and the mass media.
Not sure if you read it properly but he wasn’t fined for protesting, he was fined for breaking lockdown rules.
Smug typical Twitterati-twit “@nickbates67”, patronizingly misunderstanding. Wilfully misunderstanding. The defendant was fined for having opposed the “panicdemic” measures, in effect.
Very true. A shout put for Gab and PurgedTV as well. Great shame that #DonaldJTrump didn't get on the #freespeech platforms while he had a voice.

Please stand firm against the nasty McCarthyite wave of spite, abuse and plain lies now being directed against dissent. Even if you utterly disagree with me and other sceptics (which is a legitimate and well-intentioned position)these Red Guards threaten us all in the end.
Another Red Guard McCarthyite. I do not 'deny' covid. The claim is false and absurd. It is used as a dogwhistle to plant in the minds of the reader a non-existent parallel with Holocaust Denial. Despicable. Areal threat to reason and law. https://t.co/78v5q4vf4c
Hitchens is up the creek here. There is more evidence for “Covid-19”, even in the extreme nonsense form, than there is for (non-existent) “gas chambers” in WW2!
Even holocaust denial more often than not isn't a denial of the holocaust, rather questioning certain aspects of the holocaust that have become taboo to question because of strictly political reasons.
McCarthyism reborn. The left rightly hated it when it was done to them. But the only thing some of them ( example here) learned was how to do it themselves. This repellent Red Guard stuff is multiplying at the moment. https://t.co/WZx2yiJMwi
In fact, though he was certainly not a very “nice person”, Senator Joseph McCarthy was largely correct. There was a Communist conspiracy in places such as Hollywood in the 1930s and 1940s, and most of the conspirators were Jews.
Prayer for the Day, the Three Wise Men, and James Mason
Prayer for the Day, Radio 4’s ludicrous and platitudinous “god slot”, broadcast daily at about 0540, once again hits comedy gold. Chris-Someone, with a possibly Indian surname that I could not catch, tells the assembled listeners (though quite subtly, not expressly) that the so-called “Three Kings” or “Three Wise Men” of Biblical legend (mentioned in the Gospel of St. Matthew) were equivalent to the present wave of “refugees” (migrant-invaders), i.e. people who deserve or at least should be proffered our hospitality.
Leaving aside the politically-correct 2021 gloss, the “Three Wise Men” have proven to be a puzzle to historians as well as theologians. Wikipedia has this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biblical_Magi.
[Update, 8 January 2022: please refer to the comments section below for identities of two of the figures].
The main SS figure in the painting looks rather like James Mason [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Mason]. Was that deliberate? Mason’s political views seem to have been obscure. There are a few faint indications, though. He was a conscientious objector during WW2, and the basis for that is (as far as I know) unknown. There is no known religious reason: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Mason#Second_World_War.
In fact, Hitler did tolerate persons in high positions who were at least ambiguous in their views, so long as not proven to be actual traitors. Canaris was another example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilhelm_Canaris.
Like Hitler, James Mason the actor was very interested in architecture, having been awarded a First in Architecture from Peterhouse, Cambridge, at a time when a First was worth something.
Reverting to the Three Wise Men, it has been said that they were the representatives on Earth of the three main types of practical occultism (Hygienic, Eugenic, and Mechanical). Valentin Tomberg [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valentin_Tomberg] made that claim in his Anthroposophical Studies of the New Testament and other works.
@andrewschramm The issue is not ‘proving that lockdowns don’t work’.As in all such arguments, it’s the duty of the one proposing the action(in this case strangling civil society & the economy, crippling the NHS, wrecking education,putting thousands out of work) to show they *do*. https://t.co/KvoD8GwmhF

In less than a year, our government has dictated 1) when we can leave our homes; 2) if we can work; 3) what we can buy; 4) what we have to wear in public; and 5) who we can see in private. All from the initial ‘ask’ of a two-week lockdown to “flatten the curve”. Let that sink in.

Interesting. I have blogged previously about the situation historically in the Soviet Union, where from 1936-1989 private plots (from tiny strips of garden to about 2 acres at maximum in some oblasts and republics, particularly in Georgia) produced at least 40% of all fruit and vegetable production despite being less than 4% of the country’s productive land area.

Quince fruit is naturally very rich in pectins, which is a must if you want to make long lasting marmalades, jams, preserves, jellies, etc. Growing lots of fruits without being able to preserve them wasn't optimal, so every kitchen garden had a quince until lemons became common. pic.twitter.com/O12uEngnb3
The idea is to leave the fruit to fall to the ground by themselves, when they are ready, so you just let the tree grow as tall as it pleases, the fruits will come down with a big plonk just in time for when you need it to make jam out of all the other fruits you have harvested. pic.twitter.com/h12w8Eva6V
But here is why you should plant one and why every city where you can not grow lemons naturally, should have at least 10-25% of its fruit stock in quince: should the hard times ever come, should global shipping fail, should the industrial lemon orchards be wiped out by disease…

What Peter Hitchens forgets is that most MPs are in what even now are “safe seats”. Yes, if such MPs were each to get 5,000 or 10,000 letters from actual constituents all demanding an end to the “panic” measures of the “panicdemic”, they might sit up and take notice. As it is, even after Hitchens’ best efforts, they will each get a few hundred at most, which will not affect them in the slightest.
Naturally, as a constitutional purist, Hitchens wants to believe in a peaceful and reasoned transition to or return to actual “democracy”, but that is pie in the sky in a situation where corporatized msm propaganda is easily manipulating (mainly) uneducated, cultureless and unthinking rabbit-plebs.
Ah…seems that Hitchens agrees with me, at least in part:

Yes. Naturally, people think that it stands to reason that if human interactions are reduced, as in “lockdown”, virus transmission must also be reduced. However, if people are confined together in small houses and flats, as many British people are, that alone may increase transmission, in view of the fact that outside contacts cannot be reduced to zero.

God, how sad. A 150-year-old tree, with its neighbours, it seems, felled so that more hutches for immigrants can be built. I have never seen that particular tree, but feel sad when any tree is felled or cut back, even if for better reasons, such as coppicing. As Chekhov wrote (not sure where, offhand, not I think in The Cherry Orchard, maybe in Uncle Vanya), “there are men to whom a tree is sacred“. It may even have been in Gorky’s book Literary Portraits, where Chekhov is quoted several times, Gorky having been well-acquainted with Chekhov.
Trees, even when few in number in an area, even when solitary, add so much to human perception, to the whole feel of an area, or a street, or even an individual house and garden.
This is no longer just “infringement of civil liberty” but straight tyranny, and if the police act as the goons of the tyrants, then they themselves deserve to be treated as tyrants or goons thereof.
“Wonderful” might be going too far, but still generally better than today. Amazing to see how empty of traffic was London Wall in 1966.
I recall going to London one Saturday in 1970, I believe, with a friend from school. We wandered in, out of curiosity, to a small gallery in Jermyn Street. The door to the street was open. The day was hot. We were just admiring some Old Master painting when the (?) young owner came in. A very relaxed Old Etonian type. Instead of clearing us out, he was very friendly and polite, and told us a little about the painting, before we left to explore further. London had more character then, and was still overwhelmingly an English city.
Oh, no! (see below)…
Clap for Carers looks set to return this Thursday at 8pm, under a new namehttps://t.co/CUqdlH9MHW
Not that utter shite again! This is an Orwellian fake communitarian North Korea-lite cringe-fest and virtue-signal Twitter-fest. The public services clapping themselves, just at the time when they offer the British people less than they have done for a century. That, and scared rabbits in muzzles, clapping because they feel socially-pressured to do so.
The whole thing is a disgrace; absolutely stupid.
Instead of #clapforheroes can I propose a weekly Two Minute Hate where we can all go outside our front door and scream obscenities? Genuinely feel like it would be much more therapeutic for everyone right now.
I'm sorry but #clapforheroes just lets the government (and a weak opposition) off the hook again. Applause doesn't pay the bills or keep workers and others safe.

Can we just boycott this clapping nonsense. What we need is pay rise for all the key workers#clapforheroes#clapforcarers
Made mistake of doing it last time before I realised what was going on , wont be fooled again , lives are being destroyed through lockdown , those people are the real heroes
Agreed. The ‘key workers’ are the lucky ones. Full pay whereas thousands are struggling to make ends meet through no fault of their own. Let’s keep THAT perspective.
No, as a carer, I’m telling you we don’t want it. It would mean more if everyone made an effort to hold the government to account for their ineptitude.
Not in Warrington, they had pipers & singers outside which then made the general public wander over every week for their chance to get there picture in the paper. They were organised by hospital management who all week wanted you to stay in. Bonkers.
I sincerely hope that everyone will boycott this stupid System “clapathon” (again).
As for “@AnnemariePlas”, I think that that was the idiotic woman who started the first “clapathon”. Danish, I think. Ah…just looked her up on Google. Dutch.
Despite her Twitter and Facebook (etc) activism, despite her “clapathon” nonsense, only 730 Twitter “followers”. Even I had 3,000 by the time the Jews had me expelled, and were I still on Twitter now, 2-3 years later, that would probably have been 6,000 or more.
Nonsense people such as Caroline Criado-Perez are bad enough. Here’s another one trying to make a career out of pointless “activism”, and on a risibly poor level.
I see now that Annemarie Plas tried to get a Christmas bell-ringing thing going too:
Amazing scenes. What strikes me is that at least some Americans have begun to think out of the box. It may well be that, according to the antiquated system of voting etc, Trump lost. I don’t take a lot of interest in Trump anyway. What interests me is that at least some Americans have thrown out the whole concept of “well, we got 49% and the [other] unwashed got 51%, so they win, and winner takes all.“
In the UK, we see that the majority of the voters are either scared stupid manipulated rabbits, or non-Europeans of various kinds. So what if that “majority” gets a majority of seats in “Parliament”, a result of a manipulated, unfair, ridiculous voting, electoral, and overall political system? Screw that!

To all those journalists who did not have the courage to speak up for Julian Assange when he was alone and threatened with life in a US dungeon – how does it feel to be out-libertied by an Old Bailey Judge? A pitiful performance (one of many) by our trade.
This is President Trump’s chance —while he still is President— to cut through the tangle by granting Assange pardon.
As to Hitchens’ comment about journalists, how true. There are few real journalists around, these days. The journalistic trade (and Hitchens is right to term it a trade, and not a “profession”, as often seen) has become just a politically-correct, virtue-signalling bunch of “me-too” serfs.
The Bar, despite being traditionally a profession, and not a mere trade, is no better now.
The same has been true in the Alison Chabloz case. Few if any “journalists” (or lawyers) stood up for her right to sing satirical songs.

The old saying (Voltaire?) that “I hate what you say but will defend to the death your right to say it” is met, in today’s UK, with incomprehension, closely followed by hostility. Look at the (mostly) virtue-signalling (mostly) idiots on Twitter. Typical in that way.

A “holocaust” “survivor”, born in a WW2 camp in Austria, who spent one week there until American forces arrived. Don’t they see how mad this is (and reads)?
Incidentally, that Israeli report says at first that the said “survivor” was born at Mauthausen camp, and then lived there for a month; later it clarifies that, and says that she was only there for one week! How long was the stay? A month, a week, or maybe even only one day? I myself know nothing of the matter and, of course, cannot say whether the account is true at all, though there is no particular reason to disbelieve the entirety of the narrative .
Obviously, elderly persons cannot actually remember anything of what happened to them when they were a day, a week, or a month old. The report says that the person mentioned tells stories about her mother, on the premise that the mother had told them to the daughter.
Equally obviously, I know nothing of what happened to that mother during or before WW2. How long was she at that camp? It is unclear where she originated. From the surname, maybe in Czechoslovakia.
Mauthausen is in Austria, which joined with Germany after the plebiscite of 1938. Czechoslovakia was entirely annexed to the German Reich in 1939. The central Mauthausen camp was constructed from 1938, and became a labour camp in 1939. There were offshoots. In other words, it was in operation for up to 7 years.
We do not know whether the mother of the “survivor” mentioned in the Times of Israel report was at Mauthausen from the late 1930s, early 1940s, or only during 1945 when the Americans arrived. Later rather than earlier, in all probability. At any rate, the mother also survived the war and, according to the newspaper report, died in 2013 in the UK.
There is a continuing propaganda effort made by Israel and by Zionists resident elsewhere. We should never accept accounts, whether first-hand or, as here, secondhand (or third-hand), naively, meaning on trust. Not when there is a large-scale operation behind these sorts of accounts.
Moreover, the “historical” aspect is to some extent a red herring. The real purpose is to reinforce Zionist power now, in the contemporary world.

Oh…and look at this! I blogged about the egregious Professor Ferguson only yesterday or the day before:
“PETER HITCHENS: Guess where Professor Lockdown got his ideas … China’s police state…” [Mail on Sunday]
“One of the strangest things about our recent national madness has been the role of Professor Neil Ferguson, the physicist who has somehow come to dominate Johnson’s Covid policy.
Physicist? Yes, that is his main academic discipline. He doesn’t even have a Biology O-level, as he himself cheerfully admits. But that’s no odder than his repeated record of wild predictions of vast numbers of deaths, for a variety of diseases from foot-and-mouth to mad cow, which can kindly be described as exaggerated.
And then there’s his complicated private life, which resulted in a pretty clear breach of the miserable restrictions he had helped to impose on the rest of us. As with all such cases, I don’t blame him for breaking the stupid rules. I despise him as a hypocrite for supporting them and then thinking they didn’t apply to him.
Matt Hancock, the Health Secretary, said at the time that it was ‘just not possible’ for Ferguson to continue advising the Government. But this was not true. The professor was said to have resigned from the SAGE advisory committee. But did he? Not really.
A current State website lists him as a member of the ‘New and Emerging Respiratory Virus Threats Advisory Group’ (NERVTAG). Minutes suggest he was only ever away from that for a few weeks. But this is small potatoes, set beside an amazing admission by Ferguson in a recent interview with the semi-official newspaper The Times.
Here, Ferguson spoke of SAGE’s growing admiration for China’s tyrannical attempts to contain Covid.
To begin with they thought – with good reason – that the dishonest and repressive Chinese state was covering up the truth about the Wuhan outbreak. I am sure they still are covering it up.
Modern China is a horrible place, cruel, ruthless and unembarrassed. But for some reason SAGE came to like Peking’s Covid strategy. Ferguson told The Times that ‘as the data accrued it became clear it was an effective policy’.
I’d be interested to know how the SAGE geniuses evaluated data from this police state, which lacks a free press or independent universities. But there.
Even so, they hesitated. As Ferguson says: ‘It’s a Communist one-party state, we said. We couldn’t get away with it in Europe, we thought.’
Aren’t those words ‘we couldn’t get away with it’ interesting? Is this the way in which public servants in a free country think of the normal limits on what they can do? I can only hope not.
But Ferguson and his friends then saw what happened in Italy, where a formerly free country reached for the weapons of repression and mass house arrest. And the rule of fear was so great that they got away with it. So we were next. Or, as Ferguson puts it: ‘And then Italy did it. And we realised we could.’
They could. But they did not have to. They chose the Chinese way. And so they ‘got away with’ beginning a disaster which still continues. There is still no evidence that any of this Chinese-inspired repression has worked.
Every country that has locked down has failed to control the disease and keeps doing the same thing over and over again in the hope of getting a different result.
If lockdown is an effective policy, then the guillotine is a good cure for a headache (except that the guillotine probably does cure a headache).
The shame of it is that the lockdown fanatics did ‘get away with it’, and continue to do so. That is, quite simply, because most of the responsible people in our society did not stand up for wisdom and freedom but allowed themselves to be swept away in a flood of State-sponsored fear, like so many pawns.” [Peter Hitchens, Mail on Sunday].
Not sure that that is correct. It has been long since I was a practising barrister, and even longer since I had any substantial contact with private international law, or tax law (though I did both academically in the 1980s, and to a limited extent professionally in the succeeding two decades).
Still, it seems to me that countries (states) do not enforce the tax laws of other countries. I cannot see how that law can be enforced or even organized. I hesitate to say that that tweet is simply wrong, because I do not know, and because nothing that this bad excuse for a government might do would surprise me.

We support this or that, oppose this or that, do this or that, and all the while all that we are doing is, in effect, a re-arranging of the deck chairs on the Titanic, in the hackneyed phrase.
Good to notice there a lot of sensible people still around, I totally agree with this. A lot more should've been done to protect all of those who are most vunerable from all of this and the country needn't have shut down & still be in this mess #NoMoreLockdowns#openUKhttps://t.co/XPrEJrKWdw

Interesting historical note about Southern England
“At the end of the last glaciation, about 10,000 years ago, the area’s ecosystem was characterised by a largely treeless tundra. Pollen studies have shown that this was replaced by a taiga of birch, and then pine, before their replacement in turn (c. 4500 BC) by most of the species of tree encountered today – including, by 4000 BC, the beech, which seems to have been introduced from mainland Europe. This was used as a source of flour, ground from the triangular nutlets contained in the “mast”, or fruit of the beech, after its tannins had been leached out by soaking. Beechmast has also traditionally been fed to pigs.[7]
However, by 4000 BC, as Oliver Rackham has indicated, the dominant tree species was not the beech, but the small-leaved lime, also known as the pry tree.[8] The wildwood was made up of a patchwork of lime-wood areas and hazel-wood areas, interspersed with oak and elm and other species. The pry seems to have become less abundant now because the climate has turned against it, making it difficult for it to grow from seed. Nevertheless, some remnants of ancient lime-wood still remain in south Suffolk.[9]
Clearance of forests began with the introduction of farming (c. 4500 BC), particularly in the higher-lying parts of the country, like the South Downs. At this time, the whole region, apart from upland areas under plough, and marshy areas (e.g. Romney Marsh in Kent and much of Somerset), was heavily forested, with woodland stretching nearly everywhere.” [Wikipedia] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Lowlands_beech_forests
Ha ha! In fact, tweeter “katmonkey/@braidedriver2” is halfway right. “@rattus2384” is in fact house-husband, and one-time “film critic”, Stephen Applebaum (who also tweets as “@grubstreetsteve”). He has no job or profession, so she is right in principle.
On the wider point, that cartoon has it quite right. For those who, like me, are neither employed nor self-employed, the “lockdowns” or near lockdowns make little difference beyond being a general nuisance.
In my own case, being now 64, and having been disbarred in 2016 by reason of the machinations of a pack of Jews [see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/], I have nowhere to commute to or attend on a daily basis. I never attend (and rarely ever did) parties, or crowded nightclubs and/or discotheques. In fact, I lead —and generally have led— a fairly reclusive life (with some exceptions in previous times, admittedly).
My own everyday life is scarcely impacted at all by “lockdowns” etc. I oppose these stupid “measures” because they are trashing society, trashing the economy, ruining the very concept of law, and for what? Nothing.
It is obvious, as that cartoon expresses, that the public sector (including much of the NHS) is in fact working far less now but for enhanced or the same pay as pertained pre-“the virus”. The retired, unemployed and disabled are as well off, or better off, than they were “pre-Covid”.
Particularly well-off are MPs, who are getting more pay than before, who in many cases are getting more paid outside (and often fake) “work”, (almost bribes, really) “consultancy”, but are doing almost nothing for it.

The difficulty with the word 'Pandemic' @lls_property, is that it has no truly clear definition, so its existence cannot be established or falsified, but it is a dogwhistle suggesting (quite wrongly) that this outbreak is comparable in scale and fatality to the 1918 influenza. https://t.co/3KR54JHqYd
The truth is out there, as they say…or to use another well-worn phrase, you can lead a horse to water but cannot make it drink. The problem with the “virus” situation”, including the facemask nonsense, “lockdowns”, the economic consequences etc, is that most people do not want to think, and do not want responsible freedom; they want to be told what to do, when to clap, when to wear a face muzzle, and when to obey “official” directives, even if more or less made up by the local police superintendent.
We have been here before: most British people refused to take the threat of, and consequences of, mass immigration seriously. They preferred to direct their interest to whether the “England” team would win a football, cricket or rugby game on the other side of the world. Look at the results…
I'll say it again. I sense the approach of a strong wave of 'blood on your hands' denunciations of dissenters in the weeks to come. Dissent is the only limit on Johnson's power to close down our lives. I think sceptics must all be prepared to take some hard pounding.
Just heard a story from someone; secondhand but thought reliable.
A lady in her nineties, in hospital for various matters, has apparently just been tested for “the virus” in hospital (where she had already been staying for about a month), and the test was positive.
The said person has no symptoms of “the virus” at all, but has now been put into an even more isolated ward than the one in which she had stayed for weeks. All the nurses and doctors, and I think the patients, wear masks pretty much constantly. I presume that hands are washed frequently.
The above seems to establish, at least on the balance of probabilities, that facemasks are pretty much irrelevant in terms of protection from “the virus”. Also, that the best way to get this virus is to be admitted to an NHS hospital…
Incidentally, I happened to see the comment below somewhere:
I have no idea whether that is arrant nonsense or not. It would seem to fit in with the “Great Reset”, though.

Interesting msm report from Germany
“In 2008, just as Lehman Brothers imploded and the world descended into the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression, Franco A. joined the army. He was 19.
In no time, he was selected as one of only a handful of German officer cadets to attend the prestigious Saint-Cyr military academy in France, founded in 1802 by Napoleon.
His five years abroad included semesters at Sciences Po in Paris and King’s College London as well as at Sandhurst, one of the British Army’s premier officer training schools, and a summer session at the University of Cambridge.
In 2013, he wrote a master’s thesis, “Political Change and Strategy of Subversion.”
Over 169 pages, Franco A. argued that the downfall of great civilizations had always been immigration and the dilution of racial purity brought about by subversive minorities. Europe and the West were next in line if they did not defend themselves, he said.
Ethnically diverse societies were unstable, he wrote, and nations that allow migration were committing a form of “genocide.”
His final section posits that the Old Testament was the foundation of all subversion, a blueprint for Jews to gain global dominance. It might be, he said, “the biggest conspiracy in the history of humanity.”
Franco A. himself began stockpiling a “prepper” cellar with food rations and other supplies. He also began obtaining guns and ammunition illegally, prosecutors say.” [New York Times]
With this and wailing about overwhelmed hospitals while admissions are at a 5 year low & the #NightingaleHospitals are being dismantled, even the most gullible sheeple should begin to see it's all about money for cronies & power.https://t.co/gwu1tjW9Xh
I do get the sense that we shall shortly see a great deal more 'blood on your hands' vigilantism and hysteria directed against dissenters.

I really don't see @phillip_blond how any sentient, informed being can use positive PCR tests as an objective measure of anything – except the number of positive PCR tests, and of the intensity of state-sponsored testing designed to obtain them. https://t.co/2A8nmHovbA
Exactly. Look at the story at the head of today’s blog: an old lady, aged somewhere around 94 years old, now a statistic— a “new Covid-19 case”, because she has tested positive after a routine hospital check. In reality, that old lady has no symptoms at all, though she has lived, I am told, with several other serious medical conditions, and for some years.
That person is now part of the panicdemic narrative and will probably show up very soon in the official statistics, as part of the “second wave”, but what has changed, in reality? Nothing.
Out of 150,000+ tweets and retweets posted over a number of years, and about 100 complained of by those Jews, a mere 7 (SEVEN!) were thought to be “grossly offensive” by the BSB and so formed the basis for the quasi-trial (Bar Disciplinary Tribunal hearing) in October 2016.
In fact, the allegedly offensive tweets were reduced in number at hearing to only 5 (FIVE). Out of 150,000+…Over 6 years of Twitter membership.
My point here is other, to wit that my tweets, all general comments about society and politics, were true in all particulars. One, at which the Tribunal took particular offence, was that Michael Gove [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Gove] was “a pro-Israel, pro-Jew expenses cheat“. That was deemed “grossly offensive” despite the fact that the facts alleged by me were, in fact, facts.
In other words, I was condemned for having tweeted the truth. Where is the greater offence, the crimes or defaults of a politician, or the tweets posted and which commented on those defaults?
I might add that, in 2016, the general public was not aware (neither was I) that snivelling Jewish-lobby puppet Gove was (is?) also a regular cocaine abuser.
The other four tweets which sank me at Tribunal were also all true…
Truth is often no defence in the public-private politically correct and Zionist-dominated police state of 2020 Britain.

I agree about the insurance @cancelledxxx, and would say the same for car drivers, increasing numbers of whom are untaxed, unlicensed and uninsured. Not to mention drunk, drugged or texting. Time to restore police traffic patrols. https://t.co/uLZVgN3MHo
2/2 @janeycmj Riding a bike is dangerous, But forcing riders to wear feeble styrofoam bowls on their heads is not the solution. Enforcing the laws against texting while driving, or driving while drunk or drugged, would save far more lives, cyclists included. No sign of that. https://t.co/Ff1AgVObRL
Thank you @chrisadelaide. I suspect I ride much more slowly than you. One interesting statistic is the *tiny* number of fatalities so far among users of the (slow and heavy) London hire bikes, despite tangling with London traffic. https://t.co/pGQdhDyxNf
Bicycle riders are a nuisance, especially in the semi-rural English coastal area where I live; dark clothing, often no lights, usually no street lighting. Having said that, car drivers are often very negligent too.
My own niece, an Australian citizen working temporarily in West London, was knocked off her pushbike early in the year, and was lucky not to have been badly injured. The “accident” happened at an intersection where she had the right of way. The driver briefly stopped , then sped off. The police (who could have seized cctv evidence from nearby businesses, but did not), were useless. The hit-and-run driver, probably a non-European, has never been traced, identified, or punished.
I agree with Hitchens on the liberty point (not to have to wear helmets) but it is true that many have lost their lives by reason of not having been wearing helmets.
Ig told me that his nephew had suddenly fallen down at home (in the Caversham Park suburb close to the monitoring station; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caversham_Park_Village); he later died. Ig was (unwarrantedly) suspicious of the nephew’s girlfriend, with whom the deceased had recently had a child; mother and baby also lived in the house.
Ig seemed to think that the young woman, a Ukrainian in her twenties, might have had a drunken argument with the nephew, and hit him with something. There had been a head injury, but the police were not treating it as suspicious.
Having heard of the deceased nephew (and having once briefly met him in London, several years before these events), I was aware that he was a fairly heavy drinker. On the night of the death he had apparently taken a fairly considerable amount of drink at the bar within the monitoring centre.
Anyway, I attended the inquest held in Reading, though only as observer (I was at the time not yet Called to the Bar). Ig had instructed Counsel, a fairly confident young woman whose name escapes me but who made a career at the Bar (I used to see her around the Inns in later years).
The inquest was a rather sad waste of time, as many are. The trail seemed to have gone cold.
However, some weeks after that, the report of the inquest, printed in the local newspaper, brought forth a bus driver who declared that he had been driving his bus one evening when a cyclist, not stopping where a cycle path met the road, and the man not wearing a helmet, had shot across in front of the bus, which had stopped short; the cyclist had, despite not having been struck, fallen off onto the road. He had been helped up, and had continued on his way, obviously somewhat the worse for drink.
So there it was. No espionage connection, no drunken domestic argument and assault, just a somewhat intoxicated man who fell off a pushbike and was not wearing a safety helmet. His choice, his accident, his death.
3/3 @ianguth07700494 Unthinking claims in favour of helmets could be used to impose a helmet law, which would greatly reduce cycling and so diminish its huge health benefits to those who decide not to bother if such laws are introduced. https://t.co/xfjHy6mbs1

Had two relatively rare pleasures, one being traditional fish and chips, the other being a glass or so of Royal Tokay. The fish and chips was the first I had had for months, the Tokay (5 putts.) the first for at least 10 years. Both very pleasant.
At the same time, I saw University Challenge, another alumni match (Durham and Downing College, Cambridge). As on previous occasions, I did better than both teams. In a sense, that pleases me, but in another sense it displeases me (that highly-paid and respected broadcasters, scribblers and others are so damned ignorant in this country!).

BBC World Service
Woke up to some interminable BBC World Service Outlook programme, based around a black girl with sickle cell anaemia. Next up was something called Witness History, which might have been better entitled Witless History. Basically, more anti-white, anti-European propaganda, this time based around the history of UNESCO, and featuring an angry, shouting UN career “diplomat” from Senegal.
The World Service continues to be very poor.

“In your nothing I hope to find my everything” [Goethe, Faust; Faust to Mephistopheles]
Ukraine
As Peter Hitchens has written, Ukraine has been at the centre of many of the conflicts of the past century. Bolshevism, the White Guard, the Russian Civil War, Collectivization, Lebensraum, the war of 1941-45 etc.
During the Second World War, many Ukrainians supported the German invasion, as they had the German anti-Bolshevik occupation after the First World War.
Now we have a situation which has developed from that where the old Soviet Union collapsed and, understandably, after 70 years of Sovietism and/or war, many Ukrainians felt that they would be better off independent of Russia, an aim of many since the 19th Century.
Sadly, many of the hopes of the Ukrainians were dashed in the 1990s and thereafter. Corruption, poverty, gangsterism, and a wave of Jewish carpetbaggers arriving from the USA and elsewhere. I even saw that some Jewess from Maida Vale (the area of London where I spent most time over the years) had bought a confectionery factory there!
Now, Ukraine’s President, Prime Minister, and other top figures are Jews! One is even a Israeli citizen!
Ukraine was the germ of Russia itself. The Vikings, or “Varangians” as they are known in Russia, sailed down the great rivers of that part of the world (Don, Dniepr, Volga etc) and founded Kievan Rus, which is where Russia began, along with Novgorod: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kievan_Rus%27.
[Nikolai Roerich: Guests from Overseas]
Ukraine and Russia have always developed together. Not always in great harmony, but always together. That partnership is now fragile and under attack.
The Crimea was placed administratively under the control of the Soviet republic of Ukraine in 1954: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimea. The population, though, is mainly Russian (65%; Ukrainians 15%; Crimean Tartars 10%; others 10%).
The Russian reassertion of sovereignty in 2014 was opposed by “the West” (NWO), which since then has completely taken over “independent” Ukraine and is building a great naval base on territory controlled by the Kiev government.
As Peter Hitchens says, these “NATO” (NWO) incursions are a direct threat to Russia, to its integrity and future. As Hitchens notes, imagine what would happen if the Russians did something similar in the Gulf of Mexico…
We may be looking here at the genesis of World War Three. At the same time, “NATO” forces are engaged in military exercises both in Ukraine and in the Baltic states.
Without Ukraine at least as neutral, Russia, as a near-superpower, is no longer in existence. Indeed, it would be not very viable, long-term, as a state at all, especially looking at the slow infiltration of Chinese influence in the Eastern part of Siberia (the former Soviet Far East).
[“Russia does not have borders; it is wherever there are Russian people”]
Russia may be relatively poor compared to the USA and the EU, but it has both nuclear and non-nuclear forces which can match the “West”. Yes, the USA can destroy Russian cities and bases ten times over, and it is not known for sure whether the Russians can destroy the similar American targets ten times over, five times, or only once! Is there any difference?
In fact, were, say, New York, Washington DC, Seattle, LA, San Francisco, Chicago, Houston, Atlanta, Philadelphia and Boston to be destroyed, would the USA even be able to function? Would it take 10 years to recover? 50? 100?
Population replacement isn't simply about changing the skin colour of the West; it's about downgrading the intelligence, aspirations, values and morality of the people. It's about rewriting the entire history of a civilisation for the benefit of a tiny, hostile clique.#ProWhite

Quite. I thought, earlier in 2020, that to create new hospitals was a great achievement even bearing in mind their limited aims and equipment etc, but now I wonder whether those “Nightingale Hospitals” were just part of a propaganda “big lie”…
Just as the most enthusiastic supporters of mass media and social media censorship now are those who, in the past, would have fought for liberty: journalists, MPs, published authors etc.
The Jewish influence in society (and especially in the mass media and the legal profession) is a large part of all this.

The tsunami of debt and destitution coming our way as a result of lockdowns will ultimately reveal the futility of attempting to legislate against a seasonal respiratory virus.
It might be said that I should not write about ordinary political matters on Christmas Day, but the news having just been announced yesterday about Brexit, a few more words are needed.
As I said yesterday, “Boris” has decided to put on the mask of a tragi-comic Chamberlain rather than a tragi-comic Churchill. He says now that he has, belatedly, delivered Brexit. Of sorts, arguably. It is all rather underwhelming.
This goes beyond BRINO (Brexit In Name Only) but not very far beyond.
Having said that, the agreement has pretty much shot Farage’s fox as far as the EU is concerned. I think that, though opposition to EU norms will continue on the fringes, this means the end of Brexit and EU matters as central in UK political discourse. Effectively the end of 20 years of Brexit/EU being political drivers in the UK.
To a large extent, the agreement has also shot Labour’s fox re. the EU, too. Labour under Keir Starmer has become almost invisible. Unsurprising. Starmer-Labour has, with minor carping, supported the “Conservative” Government on almost every issue in the past year, from the “virus” messaging and the facemask nonsense to Brexit. It seems that that support will now continue in the Commons vote on this agreement (next week, unless delayed). The agreement will thus be approved, with minor rebellions on the fringes.
As far as the general public is concerned, this agreement will draw a line under Brexit, politically.
The agreement seems to cover most of the factors important in the public mind, such as (by implication) the Roma gypsy element looting the UK from foreign bases, and also the low-paid foreign workers, Poles etc, coming to the UK as of right; the food standards now staying where they are (because the UK will not drop below EU norms, so no American chlorinated chicken etc).
It looks as though animal welfare in farming etc is covered (the UK is ahead of most of the EU states in that respect anyway).
Yes, there are sacrifices made: the fishing part is not very good for the UK, though at least there will not be the first Anglo-French naval engagements, in the Channel, since Napoleonic times. Britain’s fishermen have been, to some extent, sacrificed for the wider good. That means that the head has ruled the heart, fishing being only 1% of the UK’s GDP.
Also, British people will (or may) find it less convenient to live or work in EU states, though most live rather than work (retired people etc) and that happened even before the UK joined the original EEC in 1973, though on a smaller scale. People just had to apply for a carte de sejour in France, and the equivalent elsewhere.
There will be some grumbling about this from both “Brexiteers” and Remainers but, as a major political issue, Brexit has been finally put to bed.
First of all, language people use in this area can be quite emotive, e.g. talk of Christians ‘usurping’ or ‘sanitising’ a pre-existing pagan festival. There’s a tendency to ascribe a collective agency that never existed to ‘the Church’ or ‘Christians’ when it comes to Midwinter
The minds and behaviour of early medieval people weren’t software programmed by a Church that exercised total control. The Church showed sporadic interest in popular celebrations, but its main concern was Christian rites and belief – not suppressing all pre-Christian legacies
(The later concepts of sacred and secular may not be especially relevant here, but we can’t rule out the likelihood that pre-Christian societies (just like Christian ones) had many behaviours and practices that simply lay outside the realm of the sacred. This is a complex debate)
For example, when people compare Christian saints with pre-Christian gods – often implying that saints simply ‘replaced’ gods – what they’re really referring to is saints filling the same niches as the former gods in a spiritual ecology common to most pre-modern societies
Most pre-modern European societies had broadly the same concerns, the same areas of uncertainty, and the same spheres of life where divine protection was sought, before and after Christianity. Furthermore, societies often celebrated the pattern of the seasons in similar ways
In time, as people became culturally accustomed to it, Christmas came to play the same role as whatever Midwinter festivals existed before it, and earlier traditions receded
A plausible scenario is a mixture of sacred and profane festivities existing in parallel in early England, with pre-Christian elements fading gradually as they became less culturally relevant, and Christmas traditions becoming richer as society acquired a Christian identity
So without getting into the extent to which Christmas is ‘pagan’ or not, let’s be careful about the language we use and the assumptions we make, because the nature of the evidence – and of human belief – is often insufficient to support them…
“The Sun’s Dr Carol Cooper said a shortage of staff meant the Nightingales had no chance of ever hitting capacity.“
“NHS England said while three were on standby, Manchester was open for “non-Covid care”, Exeter and Harrogate as “specialist diagnostics centres”, and Bristol for “local NHS services”.” [The Sun]
In other words, there is no “virus” “crisis”. Yes, huge numbers of people in the UK are infected, but for the vast majority that means nothing, because they either have no symptoms or mild symptoms.
White people under 70 years of age are under little threat.
The real agenda, behind the public health aspects, is becoming pretty obvious to at least the thinking minority.

Why? Because there is, effectively, no Opposition, just a shadow official Opposition under Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer (who has just nominated a Jewess from the “Board of Deputies of British Jews” as a Life Peer). However, the real, or underlying, reason that the UK now has an incompetent dystopian “elected” dictatorship is because the British people are asleep.
Well, I see her point, but the amounts she mentions, totalled and then divided among 300+ million Americans, come to only about USD $6 each! Not very much.

New Zealand is an object study in how a people unwilling to apply their minds to socio-political issues, and who think that the important things are whether or not their sports teams can win rugby or cricket (or whatever) games on the other side of the world, and virtue-signalling, imprison themselves by not bothering their heads with “politics”.
As a result, a near-lunatic is voted into office and continues to pursue a globalist multikulti agenda which will eventually create a dystopian hellhole out of what was a quite positive society with an optimistic future.

The problem that the “Free Speech Union” has is that it is just unwilling to identify the main enemy of free speech in the UK as the Jew-Zionist element and, being unwilling to speak the truth as to that, the FSU is weakened, very much.
The FSU’s Nelsonian eye turned toward Alison Chabloz and others (including me) makes its “defend free speech” stance not terribly credible.

I am pleased to hear it, but Beeching destroyed so much of this wonderful somnolent world, where railways connected the deep countryside to the modern city without destroying rural peace. Roads can’t do this. https://t.co/9mw41sfDsc
Yes, I am now recently 64, and can just remember both the last few steam trains of the early 1960s and the fuss around the Beeching cuts (though the only trains I ever travelled on in those days were the expresses between Reading and London (only used by me about twice per year, eg at Christmas to visit Hamley’s etc with my mother), so I never saw the branch lines, as far as I can recall.
No-one under my age, from their own recollection, knows about the rail network Britain once had, which started to be cut back between the two world wars, was cut back further in the 1950s, and then all but finished off by the 1960s Beeching “reforms”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beeching_cuts.
After the First World War, Britain had over 23,000 miles of track; by 1960, there still existed about 18,000 miles. In 2020, there remain about 10,000 miles of track.
The above is not a full picture, because many branch lines had a relatively few miles of track.
Some people may remember the Berlin Airlift. This is just Germany returning the favour. In return, the Johnson government is neglecting their truck drivers trapped here – no food, no sanitation, heating – no care at all. What kind of country have we become? https://t.co/p9qcpBu6iw
What has amazed me is that Government and its civil service must have known that (not necessarily because of “the virus”; maybe because of Brexit problems etc) there might well be a log-jam of trucks in Kent, yet it seems that even at Manston airfield, no contingency plans were made for water, emergency food, sanitation…What a bunch of total clowns!
Strickley Barrington Dot 30th, born just before milking this morning. She’s the 30th female member of the pedigree BD family to be born here, hence the name.
We have been registering pedigree Shorthorns for over 100 years, and they are always more than just a number in a book. pic.twitter.com/a0EeHJcUqU
A brand new member of our herd, Strickley Goldie 283rd. With the Fillpail calf we had last night, that makes 67 pedigree Dairy Shorthorn heifers born in 2020. In two years time we will have about 30 in milk heifers to sell.
There’s been a lot of talk this week about mega farms in China & about fake lab-grown meat replacing the ‘barbaric & uncaring’ livestock industry. I wrote this back in October & posted it onto my Insta account. It is the real side of my industry, it’s about our care & compassion. pic.twitter.com/T0bWrEvgKm
I am often critical of (some) farmers and of both their behaviour and attitudes, but it is not an unmixed picture by any means.
Hedges need to be laid to maintain the think growth in the base to keep it stockproof. If we left the hedge to grow tall, it would eventually ‘grow out’ and die. Hedge plants such as hazel & hawthorn are species which will live for 100’s yrs if laid, but die much sooner if left https://t.co/c1Q4nL6PcM
Started on a new 100m length of hedging between ours and the neighbour’s. It’s mainly big scrowey blackthorn, which sticks together like Velcro, so we’ve been able to ram on and do a gurt load since dinner.
A bit more hedging done this afternoon between ours and next door. It will soon be bushy and messy again, hedges grow quickly once laid. It hasn’t seen a flail machine for decades on our side and it won’t see one in the future either.
Another length of drystone walling getting rebuilt from the foundations up at the bottom of our hay fields.
Over 150m completed now by Uncle Arthur, a true craftsman. This wall will last hundreds of years without intervention, it will slowly settle into it’s surroundings. pic.twitter.com/DUFw5iDTUm
We will leave it almost untouched for the next 20-25 yrs. Our farm’s 7m of hedgerows are managed over that same long rotation, there’s a full spectrum of hedge sizes across the farm, from newly laid to huge 6m high boundaries. The best thing for hedge health, wildlife and carbon. https://t.co/B95bGsG7k8
Kind of you @talkrussian. Media conformity on most major issues has been solidifying over the past ten years, and accelerated greatly in the two years before this began. The cultural revolution, at first tentative and slow, is accelerating fast now. https://t.co/RVWli5CoCj
It becomes very obvious that “the virus” is being used, being weaponized. Coronavirus or “Covid-19” has killed about 1 out of every 1,400 people in the UK. More accurately, it has killed 1 out of every 1,400 people, who have mostly been over 80 and who mostly had several other serious conditions. Even leaving all that aside, it still means that 1,399 people out of 1,400 in the UK have either not had “Covid-19”, or have had it and survived (usually without ever having noticed that they were infected).
International organizations, such as the World Economic Forum, have openly proclaimed the virus situation as an “opportunity” for a “Great Reset” of world society.
The populations of Europe, USA etc are being taken for a ride.
Oh, ported @jdportes, sweetie, are you so inflamed with conformist prejudice that you can’t understand a scientific paper? It there’s no significant difference in positives, between masked and unmasked, then it is conclusive that masks don’t work. Prejudice hates truth. https://t.co/9ELIjsULye
What are you on about, failed bully portes @jdportes?You seem to think you know something you don't. Indeed, I think this may sum up your problem in general, an assumed & unearned superiority. 'Professor', like 'Pound Sterling', doesn't mean the same as it did when I was young. https://t.co/PGAzxJY33q
“Ain’t that the truth?”…not only about Jewish talking head Portes, though. The general point is also true. Fake or supposed “professors” are everywhere now. At one time, “Professor” was an esteemed rank or title. Now? Well, of course every tertiary educational institute, however basic, is now a “university”. “Universities” need or anyway have “professors”. So now we have not only “grade inflation” and “award inflation”, but also “title inflation”. “Professors” are two a penny these days.
That’s not to say that Portes is always wrong about everything; he was right, imo, about the wrongheadedness of most if not all of the policies pursued by George Osborne, 2010-2015.

*Thread*@Channel4News broadcast a segment on Palestine which included this image from a Prevent training module. The segment claimed that 'vocal support for Palestine' and 'opposition to Israeli settlements in Gaza' are viewed as "potential indicators of extremism" (1/7) pic.twitter.com/7qH8GILHp2

As for the “professionalism” no doubt claimed by “Prevent” and its practitioners or employees, I believe that there are no Israeli settlements in Gaza; not even the most determined anti-Zionists claim that! So not terribly impressive that “Prevent” gets even basic and unargued facts wrong…Unless, of course, Channel 4 changed “West Bank” to “Gaza”.
Takes the CST Jewish snoop organization as credible?

Unintentionally amusing. Could be applied to one of the biggest —and unproven— “conspiracy theories” of all— the “holocaust” “gas chambers”…

Exactly. Also, you will never get to the bottom of this if you try to apply ordinary party or other political ideas to it. This is not about the outer labels of “Conservative” or “Labour” etc, not even about trying to create a Bilderberg/WEF “one world” corporatist tyranny. That is just part of it.
This is about trying to steer the whole of the world in an oligarchic materialist-dictatorship direction. It is tied-in with occult, evil purposes which reach right down into everyday life, even into family life.
If people had refused to wear masks the project would have been derailed. If the govt can get you to wear masks for a seasonal winter virus in July! – they can get you to do anything. It was a compliance test and unfortunately too many complied. https://t.co/JLtRYawRW4
Wealth is certainly part of this but there must be more. I am not scientifically trained (just like “Boris” and his Cabinet of clowns), but it is surely at least possible that the hidden agenda of the vaccines is to secretly weaken the human immune system so that, in a year, 3 years, 10 years, a new virus will “suddenly” appear and wipe out most of the population of the world, who (thanks to robotics and AI) are thought “Not Wanted On Voyage”…
Yup. While others, who we thought we could have relied on, when totalitarianism did come to Britain have not only sided with the authorities, but actually urged them to be even more draconian. https://t.co/LTVZbPO6QN
Surely Neil Clark did not seriously think that “Labour” drones in Parliament or outside (or the pathetic self-describing “Left” Twitter-twits) would stand up for freedom and civil rights? They cannot even stand up for free speech against the Jew-Zionist element.
Starmer is making things WORSE. He's shamelessly using the situation to point score and thus facilitating an agenda of ever more draconian rules.
Labour seems to want the whole country to go into Tier 4 before Christmas, as in Labour-run Wales. Toys presumably sealed off in supermarkets too. We need Johnson and Hancock out urgently but Labour most definitely is not the answer.
Starmer says ´Coronavirus is ’now out of control’. That’s is shameful fearmongering. We have a casedemic based on ramped up not-fit-for purpose PCR testing. Hospitals were more full this time last year. Johnson’s awful but the answer to our problems is most definitely not Starmer pic.twitter.com/zDjO5RJotH
Well, admittedly I live in a “Tier 2” area, but over a whole 9-10 months now, not only have I not known anyone personally who has had the “virus”, but I know, from questioning people, that I do not know anyone who knows anyone who has had it. Not died from it, or been to hospital because of it, just had it, or been tested and found be infected. Not one.
I read online about people in London or Birmingham who have supposedly had it. I have no reason to doubt at least some of those claims, but this is not, or not yet, a plague. The big headline today or yesterday about this was “318,000 virus deaths in USA”, which (though many did not die of the virus anyway) is a huge number, but the USA has about 350 million inhabitants, so that is still far less than 1 in every 1,000 inhabitants.
It's very simple: the covid test comes up positive for all SARS viruses, including standard flu. There is no flu this year, because it's been rebounded as new strains covid. They're destroying your world over a standard flu. Because you let them. pic.twitter.com/DdIDP3ZoB4
Yes., @matthewstadlen, I know. , you support censorship. And are not ashamed. But I have never said the virus does not exist. Nor do I think it. https://t.co/zfJbTnTjFA
That Stadlen individual is typical of many in the UK today, especially those who make a living being scribblers or TV talking heads. Unlike most of their predecessors, they see nothing wrong in censoring views, either directly or indirectly (the latter by simply encouraging the BBC, Sky, Press etc to disallow dissidents to write or speak).
It is normal @matthewstadlen , for the person making the claim to provide evidence in support. I don’t say they don’t work. I say you have no evidence that they do. And so it proves. Silly boy. Learn to debate, the come back. https://t.co/isz4vladWn
Stadlen has a First in Classics from Cambridge, albeit gained since award inflation became rampant, yet seems never to have heard of onus probandi incumbit ei qui dicit, non ei qui negat, sometimes put more simply as the rule that “he who asserts must prove“.
In the above case, the positive action taken was to institute “lockdown”. That changed the norm. Therefore it is for those who claim that “lockdowns” work to prove that they do. Not merely assume or assert; prove.
1/2 @matthewstadlen. Twaddle. Read your own tweets. You attack me for the act of dissenting. You can't do naything elkse. You have no interest in (or knowledge of) what I actually say. You think it wrong of me to disagree with the government. https://t.co/t1LQTXgltX
1/2 @matthewstadlen I fear *you* have missed *your* point @matthewstadlen. The description of speech as 'dangerous' is plainly a preliminary to limiting or preventing it. Why else use such a word? You are ploughing the furrows in which others will sow censorship. What argument? https://t.co/MraPHgOx0h
2/2 @matthewstadlen. Quite how destroying your neighbours' jobs, by the hundreds of thousands, and their businesses by thousands, wrecking the NHS, & condemning the healthy old to lonely inavctivity and early death is 'common sense', I do not know. What a prig you are. https://t.co/9wbhwJAs8g
What does this Stadlen care? Wealthy Jewish background, well-paid jobs for BBC and other msm outlets. Looks like he has had a pretty easy life so far. No real concern for the millions of British people suffering (and about to suffer far more). Just crocodile tears tacked on to the end of his virtue-signalling.
Difficult to square this with what we were told in the press conference only three hours ago. https://t.co/EDrqP6rErF
Purely anecdotal, but in my experience people are once again taking big swerving steps to physically avoid each other on the street in the way everyone did back in March.
“Atrocious” maybe, but scarcely surprising to anyone who has seen on TV Anneliese Dodds, let alone Angela Rayner or Keir Starmer. Not that I have much time for Indian “clever boy” Sunak either.
Never bought the "sick of experts" narrative. But when you spend half an hour being told by academics you should speak to "experts" on child-grooming – themselves and their friends – rather than the actual victims and their representatives it's quite hard not to give it credence.
Ah. We got there. Home Office officials aren't "experts". Ministers aren't "experts". The people who represent those who were abused aren't "experts". Those who were actually abused aren't "experts". Just you and your mates. You are the only "experts" that matter.
Direction of travel of the social-national movement
The first thing to recognize is that there is no “social-national movement” in the UK. The modest successes of, mainly, the BNP, 1997-2010, could be described as interesting rather than enthralling; the BNP’s complete collapse in 2010, though ongoing to 2015, was neither enthralling nor even interesting.
I do not include the “controlled opposition” of Farage, his UKIP and Brexit Party vehicles etc (which are scarcely “national”, let alone “social national”); neither do I include the “alt-Right” wastes of space: “Prison Planet” Watson, “Sargon of Akkad” (Carl Benjamin), “Count Dankula” and others. Not worth bothering about. Most of them are vocally pro-Jew and pro-Israel too (either to buy credit from them and so avoid damage to their apparently lucrative online activities, or out of actual adherence).
Apart from the above, what we have now amounts to little more than various individuals posting tweets, youtube vlogs etc online.
Thus the “antifascist” (mostly Jew or Jew-controlled) element can easily “take down” the aforesaid wastes of space, and (connected) types such as Katie Hopkins, and even Tommy Robinson (the only one of them with anything like a real offline following), simply by “taking down” their Internet service. These people (except, arguably, Tommy Robinson) are dependent entirely on their websites, blogs, vlogs and including online sales, for income.
Offline? Patriotic Alternative are slightly interesting, and I think that they are at least somewhat on the right track. The other little “movements” and “parties” are a waste of time and space. I have blogged about them previously here and there. If you use the search bar on this blog, you will find my comments about them made from time to time.
Anything or anyone else? Well, ex-BNP leader Nick Griffin is or seems to be partly on the right sort of track too, though I was forced to write critically recently about his support for Jayda Fransen and her “British Freedom Party”. His support for that frankly puzzles me.
There is space and indeed a necessity for a credible movement, which would include a political party, but one does not as yet exist. That movement would also include a gradual relocation by many to a few parts of the UK where forces can be concentrated. My views on this have frequently been blogged, and can be found below.
I have listened to the views of those who say that concentrating forces in such a way is a strategy of “running away”, and that we should “stand and fight”. Well, I would answer that by saying that
There is a difference between strategic withdrawal and “running away”;
One cannot “stand and fight” with no weapons and, even more importantly, no army!;
The English cities are becoming majority non-white; yes only gradually, but surely all the same; by 2040, maybe even 2030, the UK cities and large towns will be basically non-white, and already show clear signs of that;
Such a concentration of forces does not preclude activity in the main urban areas.
The next step must be to establish a tightly-controlled political movement, even if small. However, it must be credible and solid right from the start.
#Labour A reliable source confirms Keir Starmer is lining up Tony Blair for a sensational return to front line politics as Labour candidate to contest Islington North which is currently held by independent MP Jeremy Corbyn.
Can that be true?! Could be a game-changer if it is. Imagine if Blair actually took over Labour again…he is completely controlled NWO/ZOG. Just in time for the next crucial year in the 33-year cycle— 2022.

Just listening to the clown presently posing as Prime Minister. Describing the latest illegitimate restrictions on the population. So some people, in some areas, are now to be actually prohibited from travelling overseas “except for work”. So that gives the wealthy business or parasite element a good get-out (as in “I have a business meeting in Marbella or Eilat, and will be using a private charter aircraft…).
In addition, Christmas and the New Year are now cancelled. “The Great Reset”…
From where does the (alleged) “new variant” of “the virus” come? China? Some secret laboratory? Was the existing virus strain designed that way, i.e. to mutate? Or is it a purely natural mutation, like strains of influenza? We do not know.
The bottom line is that the UK economy is going to tank. Still, “always look on the bright side of life”, and this could be the impetus, in 2021, for the formation of a real, and credible, social-national party.

Metro: “BREAKING: Londoners face being arrested if they try and leave city after midnight”. Have to say, I preferred it when those in Government were telling me to get out of London…
As I predicted some time ago, Sturgeon is using “the virus” to do “pretend-Independence” things. Closing borders unilaterally is the prerogative of a state, not a mere part of a state.
Do those people claiming this is all part of a grand conspiracy dreamt up by Boris have any understanding of the damage this is going to do to him politically. This is potentially an extinction level event for his premiership.
So? If the “Conservative” label fails and is voted out, the “Labour” label, equally (((controlled))) gets voted in, and very little changes…
Be as critical of Boris as you like. But anyone who thinks he wanted to do this as part of some grand plan to enslave Britain is off their head. It’s blindingly obvious this is the last thing he wanted to do.
Are we supposed to believe that that clown, “Boris”, is actually “in charge”? He is merely the puppet of powerful hidden forces.
Conspiracy theory
The very latest conspiracy theory— just made up…by me. The mutating virus was planned in advance (and/or new mutations are deliberately released) with aim of reducing world population drastically. Maybe newer and newer mutations will “emerge”, each succeeding one more lethal than those before it (the first one was/is not so lethal, having —supposedly— killed 1 in 1,400 people in the UK).
Well, the above is just a speculation and may not be so…
