I did not much like what I saw (on TV) of Bercow: my primary criticism of his behaviour is that he was biased. He openly ranted against the BNP to the schoolchildren’s play “Parliament”, at a time when the BNP were within sight of winning a few seats, in 2009 or 2010. A silly and nasty little person, who seemed unable to control his drunken slut of a wife.
Historical note
It’s an extraordinary thought that there is probably more time BETWEEN the painting of these two horses at Chauvet cave (>30,000 years ago) and Niaux cave (~15,000 years ago) as there is between the Niaux cave art and us #IceAgeArtpic.twitter.com/ZFAq7m2Abf
Mr Miller, 54, was speaking on the steps of the High Court on Friday morning after partially winning his case against the force which descended on his workplace in response to a tweet they deemed to be “transphobic”.
The limerick, which was posted on social media, was recorded as a “hate incident”, despite the police admitting that no crime was committed.” [Hull Live]
“He argued that Humberside Police, following the College of Policing’s guidance, had sought to “dissuade him (Mr Miller) from expressing himself on such issues in the future”, which he said was “contrary to his fundamental right to freedom of expression”.
The judge said Mr Miller strongly denies being prejudiced against transgender people, and regards himself as taking part in the “ongoing debate” about reform of the Gender Recognition Act 2004, which the Government consulted on in 2018.
Announcing the court’s decision, Mr Justice Julian Knowles said: “The claimant’s tweets were lawful and that there was not the slightest risk that he would commit a criminal offence by continuing to tweet.
“I find the combination of the police visiting the claimant’s place of work, and their subsequent statements in relation to the possibility of prosecution, were a disproportionate interference with the claimant’s right to freedom of expression because of their potential chilling effect.”
The judge added that the effect of the police turning up at Mr Miller’s place of work “because of his political opinions must not be underestimated”.
He continued: “To do so would be to undervalue a cardinal democratic freedom. In this country we have never had a Cheka, a Gestapo or a Stasi. We have never lived in an Orwellian society.” [Grimsby Live]

It occurs to me that, just as Gandhi promoted the idea of “mass disobedience” in India, the users of social media might simply, en masse, refuse to go along with the nonsense that has been imposed for many years past, certainly since the Blair elected dictatorship passed the very bad law known as Communications Act 2003, s.127): http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/21/section/127
Twitter users and others should take their courage in their hands and surge through the trammels put in their way by bad law and manipulative special interest groups such as the Jewish lobby.
Dominic Cummings and the Boris-idiot reshuffle
This is the person now effectively in charge of what passes for a government of the UK, in a situation where the part-Jew sociopath posing as Prime Minister cannot do anything but come up with schoolboy plans to build bridges over oceans etc:
I can't get enough of Dominic Cummings thinking he is a genius but actually being a certifiable nobheadpic.twitter.com/eYzlGDUzBC
This is like some low-budget sci-fi/futuristic film, in which the government is run secretly from a rubbish-strewn inner London street and by someone whose only camouflage missing is a stack of copies of The Big Issue.
Meanwhile, as in the days of the more corrupt late-Roman emperors, or the mid-1970s’ Harold Wilson government of “Lady Forkbender” and her “Lavender List”, influence and indeed power is wielded not only by some eccentric posing as a dystopian “genius” but also by the “ho” of the idiot trying to pose as Prime Minister of this poor country.
Boris-idiot has a problem, because he himself is actually incapable of running the proverbial whelk stall. His metier is that of the part-Jew public entertainer.
What makes it worse is that Dominic Cummings is actually right on several issues, such as, inter alia, the need to deport black and other criminals— and the equally important need to stop the HS2 madness.
Suella Braverman
“Suella Braverman…is mesmerically dim, with the new attorney general’s latest Channel 4 News interview suggesting not only that she could be outperformed at the dispatch box but that she could be outperformed by the dispatch box. Or indeed any other item of furniture in the Palace of Westminster.” [Marina Hyde, in The Guardian]
Just in case you weren't sufficiently worried for Britain, here's new Attorney General Suella Braverman – displaying all the intellectual clarity of a discarded potato salad that's been left to rot in the baking sun for two weeks.pic.twitter.com/6xgmOR5hQ5
Suella Braverman is yet another post-1997 political drone (elected 2015) who thinks that it is terribly clever to keep repeating the same phrases. I suppose that there are many average Joes who, reading the Daily Mail, Sun etc, think that a woman who is a barrister and has appeared in the High Court frequently must be highly intelligent, but those of us who have or have had similar status (and, as in my case, were also frequently in the High Court at one time) are harder to convince!

The Cabinet of idiots
“Whitehall is now littered with…secretaries of state such as Gavin Williamson, while Liz Truss – who’d lose a battle of wits with an emoji – is the longest serving cabinet minister.”
“I’m afraid Johnson’s much-vaunted reshuffle this week merely served as a reminder that the only positive discrimination scheme in this country that has long functioned to the highest level is the one that puts idiots in the cabinet. By this metric, the loss of Andrea Leadsom is a blow, but one that’s more than made up for by the promotion of the likes of Oliver Dowden, Alok Sharma, Anne-Marie Trevelyan and Suella Braverman. Braverman in particular is mesmerically dim, with the new attorney general’s latest Channel 4 News interview suggesting not only that she could be outperformed at the dispatch box but that she could be outperformed by the dispatch box. Or indeed any other item of furniture in the Palace of Westminster.” [Marina Hyde, The Guardian]
If only, after 1945, the European powers had agreed to co-operate in developing Africa as a continent, populating it with white people, taking care of the Africans, the wildlife, the environment, creating towns, cities, farms, with the environment, the animals, the birds being protected. No “African nationalists”, no corrupt and hopelessly incompetent African dictators or greedy African “democratic” politicians, no predation by marauders, whether African armed bands or greedy transnational companies.
I was just thinking about the unholy mess Prime Minister David Cameron-Levita left behind him in various ways: Brexit, HS2, the cretinous “reforms” of Iain Dunce Duncan Smith etc. What a complete waste of space that Mischling Cameron-Levita was. Given credit by a stupid electorate mainly because his Eton and Oxford education (and family money) made him look the part.
Laura Kuenssberg
Listened to a brief piece by Laura Kuenssberg on Radio 4 Today. Two or three egregious mistakes. One was “secretary of states” (for a group of Cabinet ministers) when she meant to say or should have said “secretaries of state”. Paid hundreds of thousands a year yet cannot get basic English right.
Cabinet reshuffle
So far, some nasty people removed:
Theresa Villiers. Arguably the biggest doormat for the Jew lobby, certainly in the Cabinet (though against stiff opposition, Sajid Javid for one). Took part in the pathetic little demonstrations in Parliament Square organized by the fake “charity”, “Campaign Against Antisemitism”. Well, her doormat tendency has not saved her. Good news.
Ha ha! Now crazed Ayn Rand devotee and Jew lobby doormat Sajid Javid has “resigned” (read, ungrammatically, “been resigned”…). Good riddance. That’s his political career gone up in smoke. Hard to imagine the idiot climbing so high again. Another “Conservative Friend of Israel” gone (but then 80% of Con MPs are members, unfortunately). Ex-Muslim or apostate Javid was almost fanatical in his pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby stance, though. He even supported the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” criminals. Great news that he is screwed!
I am the wrong sex to be a tricoteuse (and cannot knit) but I am loving this, even without an actual guillotine beside which to sit. Tsar Boris is not someone for whom I have any respect, but (as the American blacks might say) “he done good”! I love a good chistka!
Mein Gott! The (born in UK) “Paki”, Sajid Javid, may have been kicked out, but only to be replaced by the (born in UK) Indian, Rishi Sunak! A former Goldman Sachs employee. His father-in-law is a hugely-wealthy Indian businessman. India is notoriously corrupt, its politics is corrupt. There is no need for the UK to descend to such levels. Why not —here’s an off-the-wall idea— appoint white British people to the Cabinet?…
NHS
The problem at the heart of the NHS is not really money (important though that is) but maladministration.
Confirmed in his job of Secretary of State for Justice, and Lord Chancellor. Surprising. I have heard him a couple of times on TV/radio. He does not really have the intellectual horsepower. Apparently, if reports are accurate, he used the word “epitome” on radio recently, but mispronounced it to rhyme with “Rome”…not what one expects to hear from a supposedly educated person, let alone a member of the Bar. Not even in these dumbed-down times (cf. Laura Kuenssberg etc).
Alok Sharma
Appointed Business Secretary. Born in India. He attended the same school as me, in Berkshire, but a decade later. When I was there, there were no Indians (though there were two half-Indian brothers, Anglo-Indians). Sign of the times.
Grant Shapps, the dodgy Jew business chancer and former Bnai Brith office-holder, who used fake identities even to gain access to the Palace of Westminster, has been confirmed as Transport Secretary.
Jenrick is staying on as Housing Secretary. A smug little pissant, married to a Jewish lawyer and whose children are being brought up as Jewish. A complete doormat for the Jewish Zionist lobby. An enemy of freedom of expression.
Gavin Williamson
The former fireplace salesman, who plays with his pet spider while fantasizing about taking on Russia and China with his chocolate soldiers, is confirmed as staying as Education Secretary. A pathetic deadhead who would like to be Prime Minister. Our system of political selection and election is truly broken.
“Barrow-boy” Essex barrister and mouthpiece for the Jewish lobby. “Promoted” to Northern Ireland…Yeah, right…Bye…
Coronavirus
There is now a whole damage limitation exercise to propagandize us that China and its people and their habits are not to blame for these repeated waves of viruses which emerge from China, when China, its people and their habits plainly are to blame. Eating anything with legs, wings or fins, even if endangered species, not caring about animal suffering or depredation of wildlife. Screw the Chinese. There are far far too many of them on this Earth, which their numbers and habits are killing.
“Huang Yanzhong, a public heath expert at China’s Council for Foreign Relations, said that the sale of rare animals is deeply-rooted in Chinese culture, despite its illegality.”
“The freshness of one’s dinner is also prized, leading vendors to flog live animals, which are seen as a sign of luxury.” [Daily Mail]
Backward untermenschen.
Reshuffle
This comment by the LibDems about the appointment of Suella Braverman might just be the least credible thing said today:
“Responding to the appointment, [Daisy] Cooper said: “Liberal Democrats will not allow this dangerous, authoritarian Conservative government to undermine the rule of law and erode individual rights and freedoms.”
The LibDems are even more of a joke now than they were a few months ago. No leader, 11 MPs, no policies of any interest and, of course, no power.
The LibDems are not alone in being irrelevant at present. Labour is just a joke. All four contenders are doormatting for the Jewish lobby, none has much (if any) credibility. As for Corbyn (who he?) he is marking time as lame duck leader by staying in his comfort zone, yapping nonsense about the “rights” of Irish tinker “traveller” thieves and scavengers, and the deportation of Jamaican criminals etc.
I was interested to discover (if possible) whether Keir Starmer is a freemason. I assumed that he probably is, he having been Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP). In looking at the Internet, I saw this, from 2018:
“Secret Freemasons groups for politicians and journalists have been operating in Westminster, it has been reported.”
“According to The Guardian, the secret society has two arms established for people working on the parliamentary estate.
The newspaper revealed that the New Welcome Lodge is for MPs, peers and parliamentary staff, while Gallery Lodge is for political journalists with access to parliament, known as the lobby.
Freemasonry records show that both are still active. It is understood that the New Welcome Lodge has 30 to 40 members, around four of which are MPs, while Gallery Lodge has 45 members.” [Politics Home]
That must be merely the tip of the iceberg. It would be naive indeed to imagine that only 4 MPs out of 650 are freemasons! There must be other lodges in and around Parliament. However, nothing directly about Starmer.
My interest in Starmer stemmed from the fact that he is now backing “all-BAME lists” for candidate MPs. In other words, Labour is “thinking about” introducing a colour bar! Oh, it’s OK, because it will discriminate only against white British people…
In fact, this further nail in Labour’s coffin is, in a sense, logical. As I have been blogging for a few years, Labour is now to a large extent the party of the ethnic minorities (except Jews). This latest nonsense just confirms that. As for white (formerly known as “British”) people, they can just “like it or lump it”. My feeling is that, even more than is presently the case, English people (especially) will turn their collective back on Labour and seek another horse to back.

Katie Hopkins
I have posted something about Katie Hopkins losing her Twitter account:
The music of Myaskovsky is regrettably little-known in the West. One of his quieter symphonies, performed by the USSR State Symphony Orchestra, Yevgeny Svetlanov conducting:
Another version?
Westminster voting intention
The two latest opinion polls. Both show the same picture: Cons high by default, Lab floundering around its core vote (25% to 30%), nothing else of interest:
One word or tweet about the Rothschilds and their role in politics or history (not even mentioning the word “Jew”) and a footballer is “charged” by the Football Association [FA]! Incredible…and look (((who))) are publicizing it…Did (((they))) complain about it in the first place? I wonder…
The Westminster City Council was set to reject the plans for a horribly ugly “holocaust” permanent exhibition by the Palace of Westminster, until this evil dystopian and Zionist lobby-ridden “government” [ZOG] took away the Council’s power to bin the scheme. The idea is rubbish, the design is even worse. Bin it. Bulldoze it.
Emily Thornberry, who may or may not go through to the actual election for Labour leader, makes some points about absentee landlords “from China” or wherever.
She is in a slightly embarrassing position, bearing in mind the news, a few years ago, that she herself (with her husband, a High Court judge) owns no less than 8 buy to let properties! True, she is making a different point here, but she is in a rather awkward position all the same.
As for the three others already in the race, Lisa Nandy made a perhaps correct but rather underwhelming point about “left behind” towns in the North;
Rebecca Long-Bailey says that “quality homes” should be built, saying (truly enough) that “Housing is a basic human right and we are not providing our people with that basic human right at the moment”; [The Guardian]
Keir Starmer “said that more houses were required at “rents and rates that people can actually afford”. He said overcrowding in London was having a negative impact on children’s learning and labelled the current situation “disgraceful”. “Don’t see it as a housing issue, see it as a much bigger social justice issue because that’s what it is,” Sir Keir said.” [The Guardian].
The points made by Starmer and Rebecca Long-Bailey were true in themselves, but we know that the UK population has grown by somewhere between 10 million and 15 million in only 20 years. Most of the growth has been the result of immigration (including births to immigrants). 15 million! Even if you were (generously) to assume as many as 5 persons per household, that works out at three million households! Yet not one of the Labour Party leadership contenders has flagged mass immigration even as a issue (except binned loudmouth Jess Phillips, who is stupid enough to think that mass immigration to the UK is and has been a wonderful bonus for the British people!).
Mass immigration to the UK, and births to those immigrants, poses an existential threat to the UK, not because these non-Brits are terrorists (relatively few are) but because the integrity (not only racial or ethnic, but also cultural) of the UK is strained now. Seriously strained.
It has got to the point where the System (and also the “anti-fascist” idiots etc) try to enforce the point of view that anyone with a British passport is “British” (and even “English”, “Scottish”, “Welsh”), when real British people do not accept that fiction. An example would be the black-clad “ISIS brides”: on paper, “British”, but in reality certainly not. It has put us in the position where British people have lost almost all sense of their own identity.
In fact, it may be that that scrabbling around for “identity” is one reason why there has grown up in recent decades some kind of near-obsession with how England (in particular), and as a sporting nation, is doing in football, cricket, rugby etc. Olympics too (under UK banner). Is it a wish for identity, however shallow?
Marr
Just watching The Andrew Marr Show. Impressions:
Nigel Farage in a rather loud yellow silk tie quite like (maybe the same as) one I used to wear sometimes, years ago (I never wear —or have to wear— a collar and tie these days);
Farage attempting to talk up Brexit Party as a living entity. How is that possible, after he stabbed all his candidates and members in the back at the height of the 2019 General Election campaign?
Wuhan: what amazes me is how many UK, French, Australian, American persons have recently been in, or even been resident in, Wuhan. If I am honest, I have to admit ignorance as to Wuhan; I do not believe that I ever heard the name until the coronavirus struck; China does tend to amaze: 11 million people in Wuhan, yet it is merely the eleventh-largest Chinese city!
Leo Varadkar, the “Irish” PM, says that an alleged diktat from Downing Street, forbidding UK diplomats from sitting next to EU diplomats, is “petty”. I have to agree, but that is what the EU itself did when it disagreed with the election of so-called “far right” politicians in Austria and Portugal a few years ago…;
Dominic Raab (a half-Jew) talking about the proposed immigration points system. All it means is that supposedly “qualified” persons, with a UK job offer at a —low-ish—salary level of about £26,000 pa (e.g. Indians who can work a computer, or who bought a degree somewhere), will come, with their extended families. Those who enter, and their children, will start to breed in the UK…this is a disaster about to happen; it has ruined parts of Australia (another “points system” country), by the way;
John McDonnell playing (and describing himself as) the “elder statesman”. Ha ha! As I blogged after the election, when he was interviewed in his garden, he looked like nothing so much as a bemused pensioner, tipped out of his wheelchair and mugged;
Why does Marr not ask John McDonnell why he and Corbyn (and all but about 4 “Labour” MPs) signed up to the fake “International Definition of Antisemitism” (which has been adopted by only a dozen or so countries in the world)? McDonnell has behaved as a doormat for the Jewish lobby for years; he obviously thought that the lobby would help him to become Labour leader. Ha ha! Bye!…
McDonnell saying that all the Labour leadership candidates are “superb, fantastic…”. He’s a complete idiot! He even thinks that Dawn Butler might lead Labour!
Marr a little too polite to McDonnell. After Leo Varadkar was asked about Sinn Fein about to overtake Fianna Fail and possibly form a government in Dublin, Marr could have asked McDonnell about his previous support for not only Sinn Fein but the Provisional IRA itself. Or would that be too edgy? Yes, McDonnell was pro-IRA long ago, but I bet that if I were on Marr, I would be asked about things I said back in the 1980s or 1970s…;
Donald Tusk interviewed. He was born in 1957. He graduated in 1980. He came to prominence after 1990. What was he doing for the decade of the 1980s? His long Wikipedia entry says nothing about that: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Tusk
The fake charity, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [CAA] is at last being properly investigated, it seems. It is not charitable in any sense. It is a political pressure group which supports a foreign state (Israel). It is completely political. Its main office-holders have repeatedly been caught trolling (usually using pseudonyms) and offline stalking those they consider as enemies, particularly several women. The latest drunken Jewish triumphalist rant by one Joe Glasman (brother of “lord” Maurice Glasman of “Blue Labour”), posted on Twitter but deleted, is merely one of its latest excesses:
My rambling overlong outburst of gratitude to everyone who stood up against the antisemitism of Corbyn’s Labour Party. Happy Chrismukah! https://t.co/o6LIkSKK7I
Strangely no mention of this on #Marr, but no doubt it will be all over #r4today tomorrow morning given their obsession with this subject? https://t.co/oUn0Qb3YDj
"That is why I am pleased to report that the Charities Commission is treating my referral with the seriousness it deserves. They have confirmed that following initial assessment the matter has been escalated for further investigation."
Thank you Shahrar Ali for taking this forward. You will need to stay strong in the weeks ahead as you will be subjected to a tirade of the most heinous online abuse by troll accounts but you have the support of thousands of maligned Labour Party members and supporters 👍🌹
Oh, I'd say it was pretty relevant to a case of mass trolling by a supposed charity that one of their directors is already a known internet troll who has admitted as much in court! And as for Mr Glasman's behaviour! 🙄
No discussion of the disastrous HS2 nonsense on Marr. £120 BILLION and it could be more! This was another of David Cameron-Levita’s failed policies. Just bite the bullet, cancel it, sack its people, then redirect some of the money to giving both the North of England and the rest of England better rail services, new less environmentally-destructive lines (such as ultralight trains, narrow-gauge, robot trains, inter-suburban trams etc).
High-speed trains are useful in countries which are large (eg France) or very large (such as China) or very long, such as Japan (the same is true of Chile, Russia, Australia, though none of those have high-speed rail).
Japan is 1,900 miles long and the two main islands and others are joined by rail and road tunnels. Even the largest island, Honshu, on its own, is over 800 miles long, i.e. far longer than the UK, and with a number of very large industrial and commercial cities. Japan is developing an ultra high speed maglev line on which trains will run at over 300 mph:
HS2 is just not useful for the UK, even discounting the environmental damage and the huge cost.
Sinn Fein
I have in the past generally been opposed to Sinn Fein and its military wing (the IRA), but the Troubles were some time ago now. At least the IRA were white Northern Europeans with vestiges of decency, unlike the ISIS barbarians and other enemies of Western culture and life.
I see that Sinn Fein are the likely victors in the current Irish General Election. That being so, and in the spirit of diplomacy…
…and here’s one specially for John McDonnell!
The Jews I met at an oasis
A random tweet just reminded me of when I met a group of Jews in a desert oasis. It happened like this: I was in Egypt for several months in the winter of 1997-1998. I started off in charming Aswan, spent a week or two under canvas in a then-remote part of the Red Sea coast, and then a month or so in Alexandria (an experience recounted, in part, here: https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2019/03/07/when-i-was-not-arrested-in-egypt/).
I left Alexandria to visit the remote oasis of Siwa, in the Western Desert not very far from Libya and South West of the Qattara Depression and only a mile or two from the first great dunes of the Great Sea of Sand:
I lived for a month, maybe longer, in a kind of small concrete chalet in the garden of the very small hotel I used. The hotel garden was sand but planted with closely-situated date palms. I discovered that dry date palm fronds, fallen from the trees, burn easily. Thus I inadvertently started a “tradition” of having a fire around which people gathered and talked in the cool of the evening.
Most visitors to the oasis would arrive on the one bus (a luxury Mercedes coach) in early evening, stay only one or two nights, then return to Alexandria (an 8-hour journey via Marsa Matruh on the coast). By the time I left, I had spent at least a month there and was the longest-resident foreigner save for a Finnish person who did Tai Chi on the flat roof of the hotel (well, maybe you have to be a little unusual to stay long at Siwa!) and an Anglican nun who wanted to set up a Christian centre there (not a very good idea even if the authorities approved it, which was almost inconceivable). Turned out that she knew a man who had tried (unsuccessfully) to teach me Physics when I was at school in the early 1970s. Small world.
I met a number of mostly young people there. I myself was an arguably youthful 41. Apart from the Finn and the English nun, I recall quite a few others who stayed at the oasis for longer than average. Some were more eccentric than others.
There was an odd young man from somewhere near Lancaster. When in the UK, he lived in a caravan on a red squirrel conservancy and had inherited a small legacy (£12,000, I think) from his grandmother. He had lived for eight years on that, in India. He said that India was both cheaper and dirtier than Egypt. I found both statements hard to believe.
Another oddity, also English, was someone about 28, whom I at first took to be some sort of evangelical Christian, but who in fact was a militant atheist. Very militant. He had bicycled across vast expanses (including the Kazakh steppe), using a specially-built bicycle which had water storage inside its frame. He had cycled from Alexandria and was planning to cycle from Siwa to the next oasis, Bahariya, a journey of some 250 miles to the East, on a desert road used only by occasional Egyptian Army patrols, perhaps once weekly. Not a good place to get a flat or run out of water. I wonder whether he made it.
One young lady, a very attractive French girl from Rennes, the capital of Brittany, was rather interested in me, but had a boyfriend with her, a rather pleasant fellow from Montpelier, so our animated conversations did not lead anywhere, or any further…
We temporary “local expats” would eat such as molokhiya, a rather slimy but oddly tasty soup made mainly from green vegetables (jute leaves); more often we might have falafel, and maybe drink helba, a kind of yellow-green herbal tea made from fenugreek (Siwa was dry in both senses).
So what about those Jews? They were tourists from Israel, travelling in a group. Students. There seemed to be about 8 of them. None of them seemed to be overtly attached. The girls were quiet, pleasant, modest; the boys slightly less quiet. Only one was extremely unpleasant, a transplanted New York Jew aged about 25, with beard and carrying at all times a thick and obviously unread paperback about “the holocaust”. I cannot recall the exact title, something about the SS and “holocaust”. This particular Jew was studying at some university at Jerusalem and within minutes had marked me as a probable enemy! My copy of Alan Clark’s Barbarossa probably triggered his interest.
The others in that Israeli group, in discussion with other tourists (including my French “girlfriend” who never became a girlfriend), seemed to be reasonable in that they were not looking for war with the Arab world, but of course the unspoken elephant in the room was the historical basis: the migration of millions of Jews to British Mandate Palestine and later Israel, which displaced the previous occupants.
Still, in that milieu, by the “camp-fire”, one could briefly believe in an Arab-Israeli concordat. Only the presence, at times, of the American Jew Zionist fanatic, disturbed that pacific fantasy. He personified the Zionist fanatics who never quite get around to moving permanently from New York, Los Angeles or London to “Eretz Israel”, yet they are the ones who, as much or more than the “native” Israelis, push the hardline Zionist agenda. Look at the recent film featuring the former heads of MOSSAD, Shin Beth etc. They seem, in principle, less warlike than both the American (etc) “diasporic” Jew fanatics and Israel’s own political leaders.
[I am going to post that reminiscence separately as well]
I was 18 when that case became front-page news in late 1974. Over the years, I have read a little about it. For many years, I was convinced that Lucan was alive, he having been covertly relocated out of the UK by his wealthy and powerful friends. My rationale for that view was partly based on Lucan’s psychology: a fatalist, yet a gambler. For someone like that, there is always another spin of the wheel.
Later, my initial view was modified by the consideration that the worldwide hunt and continuing publicity must surely uncover the fugitive, if there was a fugitive. Now? I do not know what to think.
Ironically, Lucan’s financial problems might, today, have been less severe or pressing, in that he would today (perhaps; not all peers get money) have been entitled to claim £310 daily taxfree merely by “clocking in” at the House of Lords for 20 minutes per day, thus getting about £6,000+ per month.
Former MP Rory Stewart, now standing as Independent candidate for Mayor of London (the bookmakers have him as 2nd favourite), has climbed on the “holocaust” bandwagon and seems to be boosted by the malicious Jew-Zionist “charity”, the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”:
— Campaign Against Antisemitism (@antisemitism) January 28, 2020
I suppose that most people are unaware that Stewart is part-Jew (one-quarter), a fact which I discovered (via an alert reader of my blog) while researching updates for my lengthy blog post about him, when he was a potential Conservative Party leader (he later resigned both as MP and from the Conservative Party). My piece about Stewart is linked here, below:
Stewart’s wife is also part-Jewish, and their children are being brought up in that cultural milieu.
Stewart says that “the holocaust” “makes us see how quickly political rhetoric and posturing can become murder“. Fine words from someone who not only supported the NWO invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan but who also, as MP (2010-2019), voted for all of the cruel and callous “welfare” “reform” measures drafted (and very ineptly too) by Iain Dunce Duncan Smith and his cronies, resulting in the deaths of literally tens of thousands of (mostly) BRITISH people.
Stewart has many talents, and his self-promotion, and self-inflation of his deeds, does not take away from those deeds or talents, but he was wrong for the position of Prime Minister (in potentio), and is probably wrong for the position of Mayor of London.
What did Stewart vote for? Oh, this sort of thing, in effect: “a disabled man with a long history of mental illness starved to death just months after welfare officials stopped his out-of-work and housing benefits.” [The Guardian]
Wuhan
At last, the msm is catching up, asking why it is that Americans, French, Japanese, Australians are being evacuated, sending dedicated hospital planes etc for that purpose, while the British official and political response has been the traditional and useless one of “tell people to be careful, and then make a statement in the House of Commons”.
Our whole system is in danger of irrelevance and uselessness: from the Government, through the Foreign Office, the House of Commons, the House of Lords, the police, the “welfare” (social security) system etc.
Alastair Stewart responded to a black man on Twitter with a passage about "an angry ape" from Shakespeare's Measure for Measure.
But it also seems worth pointing out that he previously used this passage to respond to at least one other tweeter who was not identifiably black… pic.twitter.com/MZgyyPlJuC
Many on Twitter etc are defending Alastair Stewart, saying nice things about him etc, but few are pointing out that this is exactly what happens when there grows up a culture of political correctness, a culture of denunciation, a culture of “no-platforming” (i.e. suppression of freedom of expression on political, social or historical topics) etc. Few in the msm come out fighting for free speech.
Few attack the whole milieu of political correctness in which the msm now exists. Even fewer identify the principal driver of this unfreedom— the Jew-Zionist element in society, which infests both the mainstream media and, now, social media (particularly Twitter). In fact, there is a well-organized Zionist “claque” or mob of “them” on Twitter. They managed to get me expelled from Twitter in 2018 (after having pushed for it and conspired about it for about 7 years). They are the same Jews (and virtually all are Jews) that persecute satirical singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz, and the same ones that eventually had Jeremy “Jez” Turner imprisoned for mentioning Jews unflatteringly in a speech made near the Cenotaph in Whitehall.
I notice that very few are looking beyond the bare facts of the Alastair Stewart sacking to what underpins it and many less-publicized events like it.
Once you go down the road of unfreedom, you move the game to the next level…
Nigel Farage documentary
Watched a Channel 4 fly-on-wall documentary filmed during the 2019 General Election. I think that some people laughed or smirked when I blogged at that time that Nigel Farage, though a good public speaker, is not a good politician. Not long after that, Farage stabbed his candidates and his rank and file members in the back by deciding to stand down all candidates in Conservative Party-held seats, even those held (as most were) by Remain-favouring Conservatives. A monumental error.
Farage’s inexplicable —on the face of it— decision killed his party right there and then, as I blogged at the time. It showed up Brexit Party as a here today, gone tomorrow pop-up. It said to Northern voters “Brexit Party are Con stooges”. It gifted Boris-idiot and his resident lunatic, Cummings, the election. Conservative vote share scarcely increased over what it had been in 2017; Labour’s fell dramatically. A third of eligible voters did not vote.
Had Brexit Party continued campaigning in all seats (originally entered for) to polling day across the country, it might not have won a single seat, but Farage would, in honourable defeat, have retained his reputation, Brexit Party might have surged later, and most important of all, the Conservative Party would probably have failed to win a majority. Those few thousand Brexit Party votes in each constituency would have made all the difference. Also, the Brexit the UK got would eventually have been a real one, not this fake one being loaded up at present.
“The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay In leaves, no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.”
Jenrick attacks free speech and freedom of academic life (again)
Robert Jenrick, the horrible little pissant who is now a Cabinet minister, has announced that he is to cut funding to local councils and to universities that refuse to “adopt” the misnamed “International Definition of Antisemitism” (“Working Definition”, more properly).
“The IHRA definition has been criticised, especially on the basis that it stifles free speech relating to criticism of Israeli actions and policies. Its adoption of the concept of new antisemitism, specifically connecting some criticism of Israel with antisemitism, has generated controversy.[16][17] High-profile controversies took place in the United Kingdom in 2011 within the University and College Union[18][19] and within the Labour Party in 2018. The definition has been contested by scholars of antisemitism for conflating antisemitism with criticism of the Israeli government, obstructing campaigning for the rights of Palestinians and being so vague as to fail the test of any definition – to be definitive. These include Brian Klug,[20]David Feldman,[21] and Antony Lerman;[14] jurists including Hugh Tomlinson,[22]Stephen Sedley,[23]Geoffrey Bindman,[24] and Geoffrey Robertson;[25] and one of the original drafters Kenneth S. Stern has opposed the misuse of the definition to suppress and limit free speech.” [Wikipedia]
To intrude a personal recollection, I see there the name of Stephen Sedley [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Sedley ], former judge of the Court of Appeal, before whom I appeared as Counsel on a few occasions.
“The main drafter of the working definition and its examples, Kenneth S. Stern, cautioned against the free speech implications of its use as a legal tool.[26] He has opposed efforts to enshrine it in legislation[98] and wrote a letter to members of the US Congress warning that giving the definition legal status would be “unconstitutional and unwise” in December 2016.[99] In 2011, he co-authored an article about how the ‘Working Definition’ was being abused in Title VI cases, because it was being employed in an attempt to “restrict academic freedom and punish political speech.” In November 2017, Stern explained to the US House of Representatives that the definition has been abused on various US university campuses. He warned that it could “restrict academic freedom and punish political speech” and questioned whether definitions created by minority groups should be legislatively enshrined, giving as one of several examples.” [Wikipedia]
Jenrick has “demanded” that councils and universities “adopt” the so-called” “definition” for about 6 months now, but he is generally regarded as such a pathetic little pissant that, so far, only 136 out of 343 have caved in to his demands by agreeing to “adopt” it.
Brave universities are fighting the Jewish-Zionist lobby and its political control, and refusing to accept such limitation on freedom (which in any case has no legal effect).
Jenrick is one of the worst pro-Zionist offenders in the present appallingly pro-Israel government, along with Theresa Villiers and Priti Patel. His wife is a Jewish lawyer and their children are being brought up as Jewish, to the extent that Jenrick himself apparently celebrates Jewish religious and cultural festivals etc.
It is to be hoped that universities and local authorities fight this attempt to criminalize or simply ban free speech and historical investigation, and do not “adopt” this “definition”, and/or (even if they do “adopt” it) then simply refuse to go further to attack free speech. They should deliberately ignore it. “I see no ships…”
Jenrick is also throwing public money at “holocaust” propaganda nonsense such as trips by schools to the “reconstruction” at former Auschwitz. Brainwashing of children.
Meanwhile, in Germany…
“Jews could flee Germany on a ‘massive’ scale unless urgent action is taken against anti-Semitism, the foreign minister warned today.” [Daily Mail]
“Germany will push for tougher legal consequences for anti-Semitic acts, he said, and for more EU nations to make Holocaust denial a crime – currently illegal in over a dozen member states including Germany, Belgium and Italy.” [Daily Mail]
“Berlin will also step up the battle against anti-Jewish hate speech and disinformation on social media, Maas wrote, saying perpetrators ‘should feel the full force of the law across Europe’.” [Daily Mail]
No doubt that little pissant Jenrick would love to see all criticism of Jewish behaviour criminalized in the UK too, together with any attempt to really examine the “holocaust” farrago. Fortunately, Brexit renders such repression less likely.
What about that German minister? Until today, I knew little of him:
“In early 2017, Maas proposed the “Netzwerkdurchsetzungsgesetz” (“network enforcement law”) to combat online hate speech and fake news.[37][38][39] The United Nations responded with a letter, warning that several democratic freedoms were under attack.[40] The proposed law was met with criticism throughout Germany from industry associations, IT experts, scientists, net-politicians, lawyers, privacy activists and civil rights campaigners who regard it as unconstitutional and defiant of EU-law and warn of “catastrophic effects for freedom of expression“, causing online platforms to drastically censor online speech, resulting in privatization of legal enforcement and abolishing online anonymity.”
“In June 2017, Maas disclosed to the Bild newspaper that he was the recent recipient of an unprecedented number of death threats including a bullet casing in the mailbox of his private residence. He attributed the threats to dissatisfaction with current German immigration policy.” [Wikipedia]
Sounds like many Germans consider Heiko Maas “unerwunscht” (unwanted)!
Musical interlude
Huawei
Apparently, some “Conservative” Party MPs are so angry about Chinese involvement in UK mobile telephone technology that they might rebel in the Commons (pointlessly). Why don’t they get angry about the Israeli interference in all areas of UK life, especially our political parties and politics generally, and about Jewish-Zionist abuse of our law?
Labour is looking less like an alternative government even than it did prior to the 2019 General Election. Under Corbyn, Labour still looked, on a rosy view, like it could actually run a government, albeit probably not very competently. Now? I think not.
Labour in late 1983 was only about 4 years out of power, still had its solid Northern English, Scottish, Welsh and other constituencies, still had the then-powerful trade unions behind it. Now? There are few solid constituencies and the unions are all but defunct.
Leadership: Corbyn was not very popular but I seriously doubt that any of the present contenders will do better; maybe Keir Starmer. Maybe.
“@ChristiJunior@ArdanianRight Israel is majority-Jew at present, but it’s own government acknowledges that it will be majority-Arab in the very near future if demographic trends are not arrested and reversed.”
@ChristiJunior@ArdanianRight I think the Israeli government on some level has accepted the inevitability of a non-Jewish majority and the likelihood that its borders will be overrun. And that was quite possibly the motivation behind destabilizing Ukraine and cleaving it from the Russian sphere of influence — it is being prepped to be the next Jewish Homeland, using the ‘Khazar Hypothesis’ as justification.”
……….
Could the above idea be correct? On the face of it, it seems absurd, but maybe not. After all, most present-day “Jews” are not even descended from ancient “Israelites” or New Testament-era “Jews”:
The Israeli government has put out a big effort trying to rubbish various research studies indicating that Ashkenazi Jews are not descended from ancient Biblical Jews. After all, the main justification for present-day “Jews” even being in Palestine/Israel has been that the present day “Jews” are descended from the ancient ones. Without that link, the present-day “Israelis” are either tourists or occupying invaders.
I suppose that the justification for the very existence of “Israel” as a state is
the claim that Israelis are the descendants of ancient Jews and/or Israelites; and
the claim that Jews have, since 1933 or thereabouts, needed a refuge under their own control, by reason of repression and particularly the so-called “holocaust” etc.
Both of the above reasons are central to Israel’s validity as a state. They are cultural and psychological pillars holding up the Israeli state. If both fall, Israel ceases to have validity at all beyond that conferred by invasion, conquest and occupation.
It can be seen why, on the one hand, a huge effort has been put up to rubbish the “Khazar” hypothesis, and also why Israel and its Jewish and other agents worldwide try to criminalize any historical examination of the farrago of nonsense presented to the masses in the West, especially, as “the” “holocaust”.
Both of the above are impliedly contained within the idea that states and organizations in the UK and elsewhere should sign up to (“adopt”) the so-called “International Definition of Antisemitism”, a tendentious nonsense which so far has been adopted fully by only about a dozen or so states out of nearly 200.
I saw newspaper speculation that Meghan Markle might try to become U.S. President! I suppose anything is possible. After all, Trump was such a joke that The Simpsons did a story, in the early 1990s, about him becoming President. Ho ho…as if that could ever happen!
“holocaust”
The tweet, below, by one Titus Flavius (!) made me laugh!
Leading w/ ad hominem immediately exposes your position as weak. All thinking people reject the term "denier" for the valueless polarizing language of the indoctrinated cultist lobotomite that it is. You & Lipstadt are just paste eating #Zionist automatons protecting your frauds. pic.twitter.com/L1fjuMGDFI
I see that Charles met Greta Thunberg, who has “interrupted” her non-existent studies to attend the World Economic Forum. The photograph is interesting: Charles looking rather sheepish, Greta Nut looking mightily pleased with herself.
One has to think: what is behind this? The now-famous Swedish autistic has met the British Crown Prince, presidents, religious leaders (including the Pope) etc. Why? She is not educated even to a “high school” level, knows of scientific matters only the fragments that she has learned by heart from tracts etc. Above all, she has no solutions to the problems of “climate change”other than the complete shutdown of our present society and economy. Were she not in the news so often as a “world-famous activist”, one would, not unfairly, just dismiss her as an idiot or as a silly and irrelevant crank.
One has to ask what powerful forces are behind this unpleasant stunted creature. What powerful bloc finds Greta Thunberg a useful instrument? Why do people with far more education, knowledge, background, experience etc line up to worship at the “shrine” of Greta Thunberg?
Leaving aside the question of what forces are pushing the autistic to the fore, I find myself wondering what the future will hold for Greta Thunberg. She appears not only mentally but physically stunted, a 17 year old who looks about 12, if that. One cannot easily imagine her married, let alone a mother. As for some kind of career or profession, her attitude of “my way or the highway” would seem to render the idea almost impossible even if one leaves aside her lack of formal educational qualification.
Will Greta Thunberg carry on as she is at present, “demanding” that world leaders do as she wants (or else…), saying that “we children” (she recently changed that to “the youth”) “are watching” etc? Will she sink into obscurity? I would not be surprised were she to be hospitalized at some point. She sometimes strikes me as something out of the Tales of Grimm or Nordic folklore, a malicious and almost frightening creature not quite human.
SHOULD BE HAPPENING HERE, WHAT THIS TORY GOVT HAVE DONE AND WILL DO !!!!!!!! we don't even know it's happening ffs👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇 https://t.co/HzHpo5Qyai
@judgedread@ArdanianRight@ChristiJunior The Israelis know they can’t depend on America to be their regional bludgeoning instrument forever. As the racial and gender composition of America’s expeditionary forces becomes less white and less male, its fighting capability becomes dramatically less. And while drones and the eventuality of combat robots and other technological advances will make up some of the difference, there will never be a substitute for a white fighting man as an occupying force. The once-inexhaustible well of rural white boys for America’s war machine is about to run dry forever. Hence the panicked urgency for Trump to destroy Iran on Israel’s behalf.”
The Royal Family are dim anyway, but why do they always have to make such idiots of themselves? Charles “has a summit” with Greta Thunberg, a poorly-educated Swedish autistic and mental case, aged 17 (as of a couple of weeks ago). Does he not see how stupid this makes him look? Not to mention the hypocrisy of lecturing others about “climate change” and “carbon emissions” while taking a private jet from the UK to Switzerland!
Charles, I suppose, imagines that this makes him look terribly cutting-edge and credible. No. It makes him look even more silly. I suppose that, when he made his “10 years to save the planet” speech, few shouted out that “the emperor has no clothes”…despite that fact that Charles said the same thing or very similar about 11 years ago!
In fact, back then, in 2009, Charles said that he himself had calculated that the world had only 96 months in which to be “saved” (i.e. 8 years), which would mean until 2017! Ha ha!
As if that perhaps well-meaning but dim fellow could “calculate” the above in any case (no-one could, but certainly not him!).
In fact, Charles “gave the world a reprieve” in 2015 by extending his deadline to 2019. Wrong again. To be fair on him, other reports did say that he had extended the deadline to 2050. I suppose that some people actually take him seriously. Not many, though. Maybe make a personal start by not travelling by private jet? A pointless piece of virtue-signalling, true, but at least he would not be making himself look a complete idiot…
Well, I suppose that Charles might just be “badly-advised”. He certainly will be if he actually listens to that crazed little nut, Greta Thunberg! At least Nikolai II only allowed himself to be misled by Rasputin and a few others (and Rasputin sometimes made cogent points about Russia’s direction).
After his activities at Davos, Charles will be flying off to Israel on his private jet, to speechify about another largely faked narrative, the embellished “holocaust” farrago. Don’t bother. No-one’s listening.
More about Greta Nut
I am rarely seen supporting Trump, but it is surreal to see a headline such as “Greta Thunberg blasts Trump“! I’m sure that he is really worried…
Free speech and its enemies
Look at this idiot:
We need laws that criminalise “Holocaust Denial” and “Nazi Salutes” as exist in other countries. A statutory minimum one year in jail and no early release for these offences will help cure the ignorance.
— Peter #FBSI #FBPE #SNP #FBPR 🏴🇺🇦🌻 (@PeterSE16Bhoy) January 22, 2020
So according to Peter-somebody, anyone questioning the “gas chambers” fable (for which there is no real evidence), or anyone questioning one of the literally hundreds of faked “holocaust” memoirs or other accounts, must be imprisoned. The spirit of Stalinism is not dead…The absurd thing is that Peter-somebody and his like are usually not Jewish but non-Jew “useful idiot” doormats (he also does not seem to know that, out of about 200 states in the world, only about 13 states have such laws, and only a handful of others have laws which go some way toward that position— about 18 altogether):
Here’s Angela Eagle MP [Lab., Wallasey], who thinks that it is “deeply worrying” that 5% of the population have worked out that the “holocaust” farrago is a System (NWO/ZOG) fable convenue:
Had she read further, she would be even more “worried”, because the survey says that a further 20% of the public of the UK do not believe many of the main details of the fable.
Personally, I find it more worrying that Angela Eagle and the less-prominent “useful idiots” have not noticed that that Independent survey is from last year! It is from 27 January 2019! Sometimes the details matter…
Labour leadership contest
Labour’s farcical “leadership” contest trundles on, with loudmouth ignoramus Jess Phillips, having been unable even to get into the starting stalls, now backing System drone Lisa Nandy.
— Campaign Against Antisemitism (@antisemitism) January 22, 2020
Nice to know that at least one university is trying to protect freedom of expression from the manipulations of the Jewish lobby.
As for the so called “International Definition” of “antisemitism”, only about 18 states out of 200 have “adopted” it (I thought 30-35 until today, but was wrong— only 18 in fact), and several of those are having second thoughts now:
The truth is, after five years of obsequious "journalists" like John Rentoul telling Jess Phillips how brilliant she is in exchange for a negative quote about Jeremy Corbyn, she crumbled like a Cadbury's Flake at the first hint of scrutiny. And still they won't criticise her.
— Frank Owen's Legendary Paintbrush🥀🇵🇸🇾🇪 (@OwenPaintbrush) January 21, 2020
I think that Labour is asking the wrong questions. Its MPs and members are preoccupied with the idea that a new leader can “unite” the party and then the country.
First of all, Labour is now composed of at least two, I would say three blocs, with different core socio-political beliefs. Apart from that, what country is Labour (of all parties) going to “unite”? The blacks and browns in the cities? The white English who are not just, in part, “left behind” but also —more usually— disrespected and ignored? The so-called “progressive”, “me-too” and “refugees welcome” idiots who usually refer to (other) white people as “gammon” or “gammons” (though they would die rather than call a black man a “nig”, or even simply call a Jew a Jew!)?
In reality, the UK is not even split, it’s fissured along many social, age-related, racial, ethnic, ideological lines. Labour is incapable, coming as it does out of a very specific set of circumstances in the late 19th/early 20th centuries, of adapting to this multiform UK. The “Conservatives” have not adapted much either, but so far have managed to concentrate most of their support in what could be termed, very generally, “white people over 60 years of age in the Southern part of the UK”.
Something those under the age of, say, 25 should be shown, especially if they are followers of Greta Nut (Greta Thunberg)…
Failed #ClimateCrisis prediction No 42. "A secret report, suppressed by US defence chiefs and obtained by The Observer, warns that major European cities will be sunk beneath rising seas as Britain is plunged into a 'Siberian' climate by 2020"https://t.co/n0I2g2vTTi
The international “System” will do anything, say anything, suppress anything so long as the reality is hidden: that the world simply has too many people and particularly too many non-European people.
Tweet about Belgium and also about Ukraine
From a couple of months ago, but just seen:
Belgium has reportedly just elected a Jewish Prime Minster; very antisemitic, but not as bad as Ukraine where there is a Jewish Prime Minster, a Jewish President and a Haredi rabbi in charge of the Ukraine council of churches who sits on the executive board of the WJC https://t.co/DOUwUjWdgq
A bit like the UK, where there is an an enormously disproportionate Jewish presence in politics, law, business leadership, television, radio, Press, publishing, yet the masses are told —by that same (((controlled and/or influenced))) msm— about the allegedly huge “antisemitism” in the UK! Even the Cabinet is now basically a pack not only of Jews and part-Jews but of non-Jews who are completely in the pocket of the Israel lobby.
Britain today, British “Conservatism” today…
Take a look at this personification of much of what is wrong in the UK:
His degree was in Zoology and he then obtained a doctorate focussing on the mating habits of the common pheasant. His next step was to get his first job, aged 26, working as a journalist (for 8 years). He then became a director of a bank, Northern Rock, which, in 2008, was the first British bank to fail by reason of a bank run in 150 years (it was nationalized and then sold off in pieces to protect investors).
I suppose that a casual reader of such a CV might say, “what a clever man, to be a zoologist and journalist and then become director of a bank!” Well, not really, when you learn that his father had been a Northern Rock board member for 30 years and eventually Chairman, leaving just before Matt Ridley joined…
“Under the chairmanship of Matt Ridley, Northern Rock had a business plan which involved borrowing heavily in the UK and international money markets, extending mortgages to customers based on this funding, and then re-selling these mortgages on international capital markets, a process known as securitisation. In August 2007, when the global demand from investors for securitised mortgages was falling away, the lack of money raised by this meant that Northern Rock became unable to repay loans from the money market. This problem had been anticipated by the financial markets, which drew greater attention to it. On 14 September 2007, the bank sought and received a liquidity support facility from the Bank of England, to replace funds it was unable to raise from the money market. This led to panic among individual depositors, who feared that their savings might not be available should Northern Rock go into receivership. The result was a bank run – the UK’s first in 150 years – where depositors lined up outside the bank to withdraw all of their savings as quickly as possible, particularly since everyone else was doing the same.” [Wikipedia].
In 2007, I was still a practising barrister. One day, I had just finished a contractual dispute involving boatbuilding at Southampton. I exited Southampton County Court to see something unusual: across the street, a Northern Rock branch, with a line of people outside. Right next door to Northern Rock, a branch (maybe a charity shop; I just saw the sign) of The Samaritans! I wish I had had a camera! I probably could have sold the photo to the national Press!
Away from reminiscence. So here we have Matt Ridley, trained in zoology, aged 36 and who has become a bank director (Chairman from 2002) by reason solely of family connection. To add to his other attributes, he is also a “libertarian” and an atheist. Oh dear…
Matt Ridley inherited a large estate in the North of England. It has been in his family’s ownership since the 17th Century (1698):
Matt Ridley is now causing a storm on Twitter because of his view that the past decade was the best ever.
If only everyone could inherit an estate and a fortune, become director of a bank (taking deposits from the public, at that) despite having no qualifications or experience whatever, run that bank into the ground, cost the country incredible amounts of money, yet face no personal penalty or sanction! If only everyone could be like that, the UK would be so much happier.
Having said that, I have been reading some tweets and other material about Matt Ridley. When it comes to scientific questions, he is interesting and may well be right in certain areas (e.g. re “Nature and Nurture”), but, like so many scientists (not to mention actors and others) becomes effectively an idiot as soon as he steps out of his magic circle into the realms of politics and, it seems, socio-economic policy.
The (((New York Times))): All The News That (((Fits)))
More black marks for Jess Phillips: she is pro-abortion, and is apparently endorsed by a few msm idiots such as James Corden (he tweeted in favour of her a year ago). She has given an interview to the joke “newspaper”, the Huffington Post:
She would “immediately” expel “anti-Semites”, apparently. For me, “anti-Semitism” is not a crime anyway (it is not a crime in England either, though many seem to have been brainwashed into thinking that it is). Seems that Jess Phillips believes in rights for Jews but not for “anti-Semitic” British people.
She would, it seems clear, actually expel Jeremy Corbyn from Labour! Oh, and she wants to bring back into Labour not only the disloyal Jewesses Luciana Berger and Louise Ellman, but also Fathead Chuka (Umunna)!
Monty Don’s American Gardens
I like gardens, though not gardening! I very much like Monty Don’s odysseys across the history and geography of gardens. His Italian Gardens series was excellent. This latest series today included the Middleton Plantation in South Carolina, near to Charleston, where I once had colleagues. We had a small lunch and business meeting at that estate one weekend. Only about 6 or 7 people. I recall that I decided to go local, so ordered catfish and collard greens; you can’t get much more “Southern” than that!
I thought that it might be closer than that. Well, we shall see. Not that I care, so long as Jess Phillips and Lisa Nandy have no chance. I suppose that the Labour membership is thinking that a System figurehead such as ex-DPP Keir Starmer would not frighten the horses electorally. True, but he would also be a pretty dull choice. I am not sure how much Starmer really wants positive change, whereas Rebecca Long-Bailey does, not that my view of her is particularly kind either.
I was sorry to hear that Flybe may shut down, though it seems that the government is trying to save it without supplying it with direct subsidy. I used to use Flybe sometimes, about 15 years ago when I was professionally based in Exeter (and living on the Cornwall-Devon border). It was useful for long cross-country journeys, such as Exeter-Norwich (no longer offered), Exeter-Newcastle etc. I also used their flights between Brest (Finistere) and the UK occasionally. I like small airports anyway. I tried the Newquay-Gatwick service once, which was also good, but in my case I was heading into London, so that meant a jam-packed train (Gatwick Express) as well, which took the gloss off the experience. Anyway, good luck Flybe…
So once again the “Special Relationship” proves to be worthless. It’s a one-way street. The UK has often extradited its own citizens to the USA because the USA has demanded that, yet when it comes to the UK wanting a US citizen, no way, Jose! Let’s get out of that one-way and exploitative treaty.
Robert Jenrick
I always thought that Robert Jenrick was a horrible little pissant, even when he was first trying to get elected in 2014. My instinct is rarely wrong. Once installed, in 2019, as Secretary of State for Housing, Local Government and Communities, he “demanded” that local authorities adopt the so-called “international definition” of “anti-Semitism” (in fact adopted by only about 30 out of nearly 200 states).
“In July 2019, he said “I want tackling antisemitism and ensuring that the Jewish community feels protected and respected to be one of my priorities as secretary of state”… In September 2019, he said “I will use my position as Secretary of State to write to all universities and local authorities to insist that they adopt the IHRAdefinition at the earliest opportunity…and use it when considering matters such as disciplinary procedures. Failure to act in this regard is unacceptable.” [Wikipedia].
“Jenrick is a member of the Parliamentary Conservative Friends of Israel [CFI] group.”
“Jenrick has said his connection to the Jewish community “forms a very important and integral part of my life.“” [Wikipedia]
I was until recently unaware that Jenrick’s wife is a Jewish corporate lawyer who was born in Israel. Their children are being brought up as Jews. Jenrick and his wife even celebrate Jewish holidays! In short, he is a complete doormat for “the lobby”.
Labour and the Jewish lobby
“They” are still pushing for charges to be made in relation to half a dozen now-expelled Labour Party members arrested in early/mid-2019. LBC’s (((political editor))) tweets:
4). Man in his 40s arrested May 1. Section 19 Public Order Act. Warrant executed in Newham, London.
5). Man in his 60s interviewed under caution on July 9.
All five released pending investigation. The CPS have had all the files since September 27.
There is a genuine atmosphere of the Stalinist purges about this, though being arrested and bailed in the UK is obviously not the same, in absolute terms, as arrested and taken to the Lubyanka or the Butyrka in 1930s Moscow. All the same, just look at that tweet (and the others in the same thread):
“Woman in her 70s arrested on March 21. Again, Section 19 Public Order Act, following warrant executed in Wandsworth, south-west London”. A woman “in her 70s“! Arrested for allegedly saying this or that about Jews!
The fact is that where this lobby exists in sufficient numbers, non-Jews have and can have no freedom. Look at the Alison Chabloz case. There is more to come out about that now, but she was persecuted and then prosecuted (initially privately, by the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, a malicious little cabal which has wormed its way into various police and political areas).
What did Alison Chabloz do? Sang some humorous songs, and if the Jews or others say that her songs are not funny (though I disagree), then what? Haul her before The Court of Unfunny Songs?
The freedoms that we used to take for granted (until the advent of Tony Blair but made even less free under David Cameron-Levita and Theresa May) are eroding fast. Repressive and badly-drafted laws such as Communications Act 2002, s.127 allow well-organized and (((funded))) lobby groups such as “Campaign Against Antisemitism” to manipulate tame police and sometimes CPS into interrogating (and even arresting, charging and prosecuting) anyone who criticizes Jewish behaviour or the farrago of (mostly) nonsense that is the “holocaust” narrative.
Labour leadership contest
I am resigning from the Labour Party in protest at all the leadership candidates accepting the @BoardofDeputies ten demands
I am not giving up the political struggle. I will find other avenues
I am Jewish and I do not want to be in a party which submits to these demands
Well, there it is. All five candidates have agreed that Labour must henceforth be under the thumb (or the heel) of the organized Jew-Zionist lobby. We can now bid goodbye to Labour except as (((controlled))) opposition to the (((occupied))) “Conservative” Party.
The best thing would be for Labour to be reduced to a useless powerless rump, a niche party for the blacks, browns, public service staff etc. A new party can emerge for those who agree with Jack London (Jack London, not Tom London): “I am a socialist, but a white man first.”
Corbyn at least represented something understandable. These others? Useless and craven.
Alison Chabloz
After her appearance in court on her appeal last Friday, which was adjourned until 25 June 2020, persecuted satirical singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz must feel that the end is now in sight. Depending on what Crown disclosure is made, it is possible that her appeal will not be opposed. Later? Her persecutors may ultimately find themselves in trouble.

Good grief! Harry really has, in the American vernacular, become a total cuck! I predicted quite a while ago that he was in danger of becoming that stock figure of American sitcom-land, the husband driven to distraction by the incessant demands of his petulant young wife.
