“At least one in five working-age families in most UK constituencies – including in Liz Truss’s seat – would lose out by hundreds of pounds on average if real-terms benefit cuts go ahead, a study has found.
The scale of the impact of a below-inflation rise on already struggling households and by extension, local shops and businesses, is revealed in a study by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF). It would amount to the biggest-ever real terms cut to benefits in a single year.
The findings will increase pressure on the prime minister to stick to promises made by her predecessor, Boris Johnson, to guarantee benefits would rise next April in line with September inflation – about 10% – rather than by the rise in earnings figure of 6%. This real-terms cut would deliver around £5bn in savings to the Treasury.
Dozens of backbench Tory MPs are understood to be prepared to rebel over real-terms benefits cuts, while a number of cabinet ministers – including Penny Mordaunt and Robert Buckland – have also signalled their opposition.
The JRF analysis shows seven out of 10 MPs represent areas where at least 20% of households are reliant on universal credit and other means-tested benefits.These include 193 Conservative seats, including a number of key marginals where over a third of working-age families would be affected by a cut.
“Politicians should think long and hard about the impact of withholding hundreds of pounds from thousands of families in their constituencies when the basic rate of benefits is already at its lowest in real terms for 40 years and prices are sky-high,” said Katie Schmuecker, JRF’s principal policy adviser
Families in ”red wall” seats in one-time Labour strongholds taken by the Conservatives at the last general election would be particularly badly affected by real-term benefit cuts. They include Blackpool South, where nearly half (46%) of households stand to lose out, Burnley (38%), and Redcar (33%).
The JRF analysis shows that even in the most affluent constituencies at least one in 10 households are on means-tested benefits.

“A former academic at University College London must pay almost £50,000 in damages to a former colleague after falsely portraying her as a sex worker on social media as part of a months-long campaign of harassment.
Christopher Backhouse, a former research fellow at the department of physics and astronomy at UCL, has settled to pay £49,975 to Erica Smith, a physicist and a postdoctoral fellow at Indiana University in the US.
Backhouse was revealed as the perpetrator after Smith enlisted a US lawyer to subpoena Twitter and Google. Documents from the tech giants identified an IP address in London, despite great lengths by the perpetrator to cover their tracks using global proxy servers, the court heard.
Using a Norwich Pharmacal Order (NPO) against BT, a disclosure order allowing information to be obtained from third parties, Backhouse was revealed as the customer connected with the London IP address.”

Deadhead MP and now, absurdly, Deputy Prime Minister and Secretary of State for Health, Therese Coffey, still attracting critical and/or incredulous tweets:
[Britain’s Deputy Prime Minister and Secretary of State for Health, Therese Coffey]
It is shaming for Britain to be represented by such as stupidly ignorant “ho” Liz Truss, ugly, nasty moneygrubbing drunk Therese Coffey, woolly-head Kwarteng, and ignorant half-caste James Cleverly.
The present Cabinet has no legitimacy.
The question is how to get rid of them.

It will be recalled that Derbyshire Police (one of the worst-performing forces in the UK) was instrumental in the Jew-Zionist campaign against satirist Alison Chabloz, and its Police and Crime Commissioner at the time (removed in 2021) was a Labour Party drone, a Sikh, who was basically suborned some years ago by the malicious small pressure group called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”].
Derbyshire Police was also one of the worst police forces involved in illegal bullying of the public during the “panicdemic” of 2020-2021.

“Labour” is now just a label. In fact, one of Labour’s least impressive MPs, the unpleasant self-publicist Jess Phillips, said a few years ago that it was “just a f****** rose” (a reference to its symbol).
Labour is riding high in the opinion polls now by default, the Conservative Party having all but imploded, but Labour, in itself, is every bit as rubbish as the Conservative Party.

“Aubrey Allegretti, political correspondent: Kwarteng starts by pinning the blame for inflation and spiralling energy bills directly on Putin.“
[The Guardian]
Well, after all, it could not be the fault of the Boris-idiot government, which all but shut down the UK economy for 2 years for no good reason, while doling out free money like a drunken sailor…oh, wait a minute…
“Aubrey Allegretti: Kwarteng seeks to turn the last 12 years of Conservative economic wisdom on its head and present the government as new and radical – rather than hanging on the coattails of the last one.
He lays out his central point that “growth is not as high as it should be”, arguing this only leads to less money to fund public services, relying on higher taxes, and so on.
“We need a new approach for a new era” should be seen as nothing less than a bid to reinvent the Conservatives and present them as a party of change – to avoid being blamed for the mistakes of the past. (Despite, of course, Truss having served in the previous three Conservative governments.)“
[The Guardian].
This mini-budget is completely mad. The result can only be roaring inflation, higher interest rates for businesses and mortgage-payers, and before very long a huge spike in house-repossessions as people default on the mortgage commitments taken out in easier times.
Reducing tax for those earning over £140,000 —about 3x or 4x the average pay? That is just ridiculous and will be applied to purchase of hedging assets (including paying off any mortgage commitments such higher-earners may have).
Stimulation of the economy requires more money at the bottom end, where people are almost compelled by circumstances to spend on goods and services, not at the top end of the income scale.
Today, the pound sterling is down, as I write, by about 2%. Interest rates for UK government borrowing are rising steeply.
A budget of this sort does nothing for the poor (however defined), nothing for the bulk of the population, and only helps those already affluent or wealthy.
Indeed, it might be said that the “middle ranks”, meaning people without much capital, working for a modest living, paying off a mortgage, paying for children and a household, will be hit very hard.
If only there were an existing, tightly-controlled, social-national party, —even if small— and with credible policies and people. One does not exist. Somewhere soon down the road might come a “1929” moment. That was what started the NSDAP and Hitler on its path to glory (ultimately, tragic glory, but that is another question).

Hilary Mantel
The authoress, Hilary Mantel, has died.
I was struck by this, seen on her Wikipedia entry:
“In an 2013 interview with the Telegraph, Mantel stated: “I think that nowadays the Catholic Church is not an institution for respectable people.”[5] She continued in the interview to say: “When I was a child I wondered why priests and nuns were not nicer people. I thought that they were amongst the worst people I knew.” These statements, as well as the themes explored in her earlier novel Fludd, led some to question her work in Wolf Hall, with Bishop Mark O’Toole noting: “There is an anti-Catholic thread there, there is no doubt about it. Wolf Hall is not neutral.”[46].”
I myself had no contact with Roman Catholicism as a child. Indeed, I do not think that I even knew any Roman Catholics until I was in my early 20s. All the same, the few impressions that I had then were not favourable, as when I was in Ireland aged about 21 and had left Tralee station to walk or hitch-hike to the mountains. A small car approached, the first one since Tralee. I stuck out my thumb, only for the miserable-looking bastards on board, a thin, rat-faced and bespectacled Catholic priest, and a thoroughly nasty-looking nun (who was driving), to pass me without even a glance.
After a week or so in the sea-mountains, I returned the same way. Again, a car approached. The same car. The same occupants. I thought that this time they would stop, having seen me the previous week. No. Straight on past, not sparing me a look.
Miserable bastards, whom I hope met a miserable end.
Incidentally, I did get a lift eventually, in both directions; on the journey out, from an attractive dark-haired young Irishwoman who would not accept a chocolate from me because it was Lent.
The years spin past ever-quicker. That was in early 1979, all of 43 years ago now.

Exactly. Both above tweets are right. The income point however leaves out the main difference between the few and the many, the capital held by each group.
The average Joe has no, or virtually no, capital. In fact, if you leave aside any equity value in residential property owned (usually just one dwelling, and Average Joe himself lives in it), most British people really only have a tiny amount of capital, a few thousand pounds, or even just a few hundred.
The wealthy few however, are often not at all dependent on income as such, certainly not income from any ordinary job. Their capital, invested in real property, or shares etc, is the key to their wealth. Careful investment and accountancy can mean that Average Millionaire/Billionaire Joe has almost no taxable income at all, while in any given year, his capital might have increased by 20%, 50%, even 1,000%.
The wealthiest of all have seen their capital increase hugely since the last financial crash in 2008; The Elon Musks (from about USD $2 billion to about USD $277 billion— in just one decade), the Jeff Bezos’s etc.
People like that laugh at the very idea of income tax. It is simply irrelevant to most of them. Look at the Duke of Westminster, small compared to the mega-billionaires, but still worth £10 billion -£20 billion. Then compare that to the Average Joe, who might (or might not) own, even including his house equity, maybe £200,000 or so. £1 for every £100,000 owned by the Duke of Westminster, and maybe £1 for every £1,500,000 owned by Elon Musk.
Hmrc wanting self employed people to submit tax returns every 3 months from 2024 🤡 literally no point in working hard in the uk at all between taxes and the state of the place
I myself had a great many problems with HMRC long ago. Partly but not entirely self-inflicted, and all now (long ago, over a decade ago) resolved to my satisfaction. I never ever encountered a bureaucracy as shambolic (as well as, in some cases, unpleasant) as HMRC. Not in Eastern Europe, not in the former Soviet Union, not in the USA (which came close, at times).
Had a letter from HMRC saying I owe £824.80 for 2021/2022. Logged into my account online and it says I owe £53.20.
Looks like an hour on the phone again ringing HMRC on my next day off. 🙄
I have decided to be more like the royals. I shall in future only pay tax voluntarily. If they, who are infinitely richer than me, can do this, then so can I. Fair's fair! I shall be informing HMRC of this decision immediately!
Look at them: Charles, Anne, Edward, Andrew, Harry (formerly known as “Prince”), William. Are any of them beyond mediocre in intellect, character, or in any way other than unearned and unmerited wealth? Most of them do not even pay taxes.
Meanwhile, Kelvin McKenzie, formerly of the Sun “newspaper”, exposes his ignorance once again:
McKenzie seems unaware that there is more to tax than income tax and inheritance tax. To give the obvious example (obvious at least to anyone better-informed than McKenzie), everyone pays VAT, a tax which is a major contributor to State funds, and is paid disproportionately by the poorer part of the population.

Putin’s decision to invade, as such, was not a mistake, but the decision to invade without proper preparation, without a proper plan, without having eliminated Zelensky, and with no proper logistics in place, was more than a mistake. It was criminally negligent. The GRU and General Staff should be purged, cut to the bone. Start again, as Stalin did.
It could have been done swiftly, with minimal hurt and damage.
This 12yr old Tory government are playing Russian Roulette with British finances. They’ve decided that the best way to solve the financial crisis is to give more money to rich people. Who’ll pay? Tory supporters have already paid with their souls #minibudget2022#stockmarketcrash

True, but remember how Blair, and Brown in particular, worshipped the banking “industry” (sometimes useful but basically parasitic service industry).
More thoughts about the “mini-Budget”
Seems that “the markets” are dropping like a stone.
I mean, a simple-minded, almost cretinous Budget, announced by a woolly-headed ****** posing as Chancellor of the Exchequer; then we have a semi-educated half-caste with a “degree” in Hospitality Management posing as Foreign Secretary, and a stupid and ridiculous woman (who only became an MP on her back), actually posing as Prime Minister….what could possibly go wrong?
Jesus Christ! Is that stupid lot the best “the great Conservative Party” (in the words of Disraeli, his sentence ending “which destroys everything“…) can do? And is that hopelessly banal package of economic measures the summation of their thoughts?

I remember when, in the 1980s, a load of caravan-dwelling “travellers” decided to camp on Hampstead Heath, near the opulent house of “socialist” humbug Michael Foot. Suddenly, the great champion of the “rights” of the Gypsies and “travellers” (Irish tinkers) was against them camping near his house…
I remember Bill Bradley from when I lived in New Jersey in the early 1990s. One of those “best President (or Prime Minister)who never made it” figures, like (in the UK) Rab Butler, Enoch Powell etc. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Bradley.
On the main question here, the Russia-Ukraine situation, we see above a number of figures from, inter alia, the U.S. State Department, the CIA, the British Foreign Office, not to mention the American, Australian and other political establishments, all warning against NATO expansionism and against stoking Ukrainian political and military aggressiveness.
Few of those political and diplomatic figures can be, plausibly, written off as “Russian shills” and the like, as we see all too often written on Twitter and elsewhere, as the unthinking “I stand with Ukraine” mob bay for anything up to and even including nuclear war with Russia.
The disastrous policy of actively supporting the Jew-Zionist kleptocracy in Kiev headed (or figureheaded) by Zelensky is bad enough in itself (and is soon going to result in recession and/or stagflation in the UK and the EU) but, worse than that, may develop into a military situation between NATO and Russia which may then slip or slide into a nuclear conflict which would devastate the UK, much of Europe, the industrialized parts of Russia, and the cities of the USA.

A salutary tale, and one which I have just reread, this time also reading many of the readers’ comments. Some had had similar experiences.
I was reminded, reading all that, of an experience of my own.
Over twenty years ago (how time flies in this world when one is no longer young), I was invited, with my wife, to the wedding of a friend, and former teacher at a language school where I had been a part-time student in the early 1980s.
I had become very friendly in the late 1980s and early 1990s with Ig, a noted translator of Dostoyevsky; Ig was divorced (from decades before) and lived in a semi-detached house with a large garden, in North Finchley (London outskirts).
Ig worked at a language school near Warren Street, in Central London, an institute where most of the Russian-language faculty were exiles of one sort or another. He himself had been born in Latvia between the world wars; when he was 14, his family fled to Germany, at the end of WW2, and as the Red Army advanced from the East. They had then settled in the UK.
I sometimes enjoyed a drink, and occasionally a curry in Drummond Street (also near Warren Street), with Ig and one or other of his friends, such as “Uncle John”, a divorced fellow whose wife, Alla from Leningrad, was another language teacher of mine at one time, or with Guy Churchill, a pleasant retiree and one-time SAS soldier (during the Malayan Emergency of the 1950s), who had the odd habit (never seen before or since) of breaking the filter tips off his cigarettes before smoking them.
Ig was rather eccentric, and sometimes did things which were very surreal, as when he took me, for no obvious reason, to have tea with the writer, Doris Lessing [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doris_Lessing], at a cafe-bar near the language school. A strange, awkward, rather Kafkaesque experience.
It never occurred to me that Ig, not far off retirement age, might remarry and so compromise his bachelor life of Russo-Soviet culture, beer, and collecting railway clocks (several were in the main room of his house). I was therefore surprised to be invited to his wedding, at a Register Office somewhere on the extension of Edgware Road, far up that road, maybe near Brent Cross (I cannot now exactly recall).
My wife and I attended the short ceremony, and met the bride. She was Russian but had been resident in Latvia, where Ig had met her (not sure where or how; possibly at a bus stop or the like). She was supposedly mid-twenties (my wife thought older), and looked a bit lost amid Ig’s rather grey-haired friends, who included a couple of occasional teachers of mine at that language school, one being a one-time Army linguist (and keeper of goats), another being Gerald Brooke, who had spent 4 years in prison near Moscow before being swapped for the Krogers: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerald_Brooke; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morris_Cohen_(spy); https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lona_Cohen.
That was the wedding. Some time later, Ig asked me to take his new wife to lunch at Lincoln’s Inn. She was friendly, pleasant, and told me that she had a law degree from Latvia, maybe Riga.
Scroll forward. My wife and I took on the lease of a large country house, one of the largest in North Cornwall.
We invited Ig and his wife to stay for the weekend. They arrived, but right from the start there was something wrong. For one thing, in a cold autumn, Ig’s wife came in a short dress, no coat, no gloves, perhaps unaware of how cold a large English country house can be, despite large fuel bills (one January, I spent nearly £700 on oil alone; plus coal and firewood. £700, in one month, 20 years ago).
Ig’s wife was actually quite rude from the start, not at all friendly to my wife, treated her like a serf, did not offer any help or whatever (we had the big house, but not any domestic staff as such), and just seemed to be sulking constantly. We assumed that the ill-matched couple had had a spat on the way down.
Anyway, after a weekend which —without going into great detail— tested my wife’s patience to the hilt, and when the pair were almost ready to go home, my wife thought to take some extra towels to their room (the house had originally had 26 bedrooms). She saw that Ig’s new wife’s suitcase was open on the bed; on top of the contents, a silk scarf belong to my wife, from Hermes. Ig’s wife had actually stolen the silk scarf (and other items, including bottles of scent) and placed them in her suitcase. The item were retrieved, and a diplomatic way found to raise the matter with the guest/thief.
Not an entirely successful weekend.
After that, I received calls from Ig’s Russian friends, begging me to think of a way to “save him from that stupid girl, who knows nothing but films and fashion“.
In fact, Ig did try to divorce her, after he overheard her talking to her mother in Riga, and the pair plotting to divorce him and so get half of his quite valuable house. In the end, the divorce never happened, despite preliminary court hearings.
Ig was prevailed upon to change his mind and, looking at that Guardian obit, they seem to have remained married until his death some 11 years later. I hope that the woman was not unkind to Ig in his last years, because he was a good fellow, but I never saw him after the disastrous weekend, and only spoke to him a couple of times when (maybe at her instigation) he wanted to bring her down again to Cornwall. I could not put my wife through that sort of nonsense again, though.
I presume that that woman got his house, I believe worth (in 2013) about £800,000 (and I suppose worth twice that much now), and other financial benefits.
However, not all Russians, Ukrainians etc can be tarred with the same brush. For example, I knew one girl (from Kiev) who was offered marriage by a British diplomat (who became an ambassador only about 2 years later) but refused him.
Many Russians (and, no doubt, Ukrainians too) are very fine people, but they come from a very different cultural and social background than English people. History has been harsh in those regions, and attitudes are fashioned out of such history.
Truss’ Cabinet picks are genuinely terrifying. We must brace for the utter turmoil which is no doubt ahead of us all. It’s going to be a long, dark winter.
The last Cabinet contained only sycophants prepared to ignore Johnson's epic unsuitability for high office. The new one will contain only sycophants prepared to ignore Johnson's epic unsuitability for high office who haven't criticised or upset Liz Truss. It's a narrowing field!
The main surprise is that Nadine Dorries is not there, it being rumoured that she is about to be elevated to the Lords. Well, why not? After all, a woman (Michelle Mone) who faked a “success story” about her insolvent bra company is there, as are several absurd black women, one of whom is only there because her son was killed in a scuffle with white yobs at a bus stop. Just a few examples of the deadheads in the House of Lords (Oona King is another one).
If Truss freezes energy prices but makes working people pay for it rather than the big oil and gas companies, she’s going to be out of office pretty quickly.
In principle, correct, but there is no mechanism, as we have seen in recent years, for the public to be able to dispense with even the most ridiculous Prime Minister, until given an opportunity at a general election.
New Foreign Secretary James Cleverly voted to reduce Corporation Tax 9 times, yet he has voted to cut benefits 23 times.
Not many people know Cleverly advocated scrapping the minimum wage in 2013.
Another humiliation for Britain, having this ridiculous creature as Foreign Secretary, complete with his “degree” in Hospitality Management from West London Poly.
In fact, apart from a couple of years as a sales manager, Cleverly seems not to have had a job for much of his life, unless you include his Territorial Army officer activity. He was never commissioned into the Regular Army, by reason of a supposed leg injury (unspecified); nor is it known whether he dropped out of Sandhurst or other training institution.
A couple more bits of news about the new Cabinet
That little pissant Robert Jenrick, a total puppet of the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby, has been appointed a Minister of State despite his very “questionable” links to Jew property speculators.
Jewish wife; children brought up as if full-Jew. Completely in the Zionist pocket.
The other news is that ex-officer Johnny Mercer, who seemed like a rare breath of fresh air in the Commons at first (but who, disappointingly, turned out to be a moneygrubber, at least from what I have read), has been kicked out of Government, and his wife, seeing the extra salary etc disappearing up the chimney, is livid.
Prime Minister Liz Truss has been branded an "imbecile" by the wife of sacked minister Johnny Mercer.
Felicity Cornelius-Mercer said the cabinet system “stinks” and “treats people appallingly” after her husband was removed as veterans affairs minister.https://t.co/ghjIelYWOG
I suppose that Mercer was hoping against hope to be appointed at some later stage as Defence Secretary, though his “bring it on!” rhetoric about nuclear war with Russia hardly inspired confidence in his judgment.
As for Mercer’s wife, Felicity, of whom I knew nothing until today, I award her 9 out of 10 for honesty, 1 out of 10 for diplomacy, and another 9 out of 10 for making my day more amusing.
You see that sort of thing all the time on Twitter— a cavalcade of talking heads, supposed “comedians”, sports talking heads etc, all paying lip-service to the BBC which, in most cases, pays them. Sickening homage to patronage.

@kerr649, @louisemensch has never forgiven me for a long-ago column item in which I laughed at the way she wandered in and out of New Labour back in the 1990s, when she was still writing chick-lit. I actually agreed to meet her to discuss it. https://t.co/eXpofp8ZWw
Louise Mensch. A blast from the past, now just a washed-up, divorced Twitter twit who, after I was —both wrongfully and unlawfully— disbarred in 2016, actually tweeted directly to me, threatening (ignorantly) to have me disbarred in New York as well. Never heard anything more about it.
Louise Mensch was, inter alia, a drug abuser, and admitted that her drug abuse “messed up her head“. A rock “music” “groupie” at one time long ago (when at University), who became, at least metaphorically, an Israel- lobby “groupie” later.
It seems that Therese Coffey, the appalling woman presently Secretary of State for the DWP, is likely to be appointed Secretary of State for Health (assuming a Liz Truss premiership— we shall know about that later today).
Good grief. Thick half-caste James Cleverly as Foreign Secretary?! What an incredible embarrassment and humiliation for this country, even after Liz Truss…
The others mooted? Well, we have as mooted Chancellor of the Exchequer, Kwasi Kwarteng, the “African at Eton”, who said, in a book he co-authored with others (including Liz Truss), that “Once they enter the workplace, the British are among the worst idlers in the world.” See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Britannia_Unchained; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kwasi_Kwarteng.
Incidentally, that book was written by 5 MPs, of whom only 2 (Liz Truss, Chris Skidmore) are full European, the others being Kwasi Kwarteng (Ghanaian origin), Priti Patel (East African Indian origin), Dominic Raab (half-Jew).
Then we have Ben Wallace, Defence Secretary since 2019 on the strength of having been a captain in the Scots Guards. Seems to think (after a few whiskys) that the now-pitiful British armed forces can take on Russia (in a nuclear war?) and “win”.
Wallace’s actual words were to the effect that the Scots Guards had “kicked the [backside]” of Nikolai I of Russia in the Crimean War (about 170 years ago) and could do it again.
Let us hope that Wallace stays off the whisky, in case he confuses 1852 with 2022 and then, while a little too merry, tries to kick Putin’s nuclear backside.

Nadhim Zahawi? He emulates the limpet. He blagged his corrupt, expenses-cheating, tax-evading way into Cabinet under “Boris”-idiot, and he will be clinging onto office no matter what.
Most of the rest on that list can be best described as deadheads and idiots.
Such a Cabinet, at such a time? The auguries cannot be favourable.
Basically, “Boris” Johnson appointed to his Cabinet those MPs with more interest in office than their own self-respect. The dregs, pretty much. What we now see is a new Cabinet which can be described as the dregs of the dregs.

“The boss of RAF recruitment has said she is ‘unashamed’ of the force’s diversity targets, amid claims that it has effectively paused its recruitment of white men.”
[Daily Mail]
The RAF has become largely a pathetic joke. Incidentally, this is the “RAF senior officer” in question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Byford. A dentist by training…
One starts to wonder why the RAF (and Royal Navy, and even the Army) even exist.
“A lot of people in the more depressed parts of my constituency often sadly smoke and cigarettes are £12 a packet.
‘And people find it difficult to stop smoking.
‘So there are other ways we can help people – through smoking cessation, helping people budget and also… giving people the skills to make simple, nutritious meals from basic ingredients.
‘Because if you are going to live on takeaways that is a very expensive way of feeding your family.‘”
[Robert Goodwill MP, quoted in the Daily Mail].
This is Robert Goodwill: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Goodwill. A proven expenses overclaimer, who also “employs” his wife via his MP expenses (she gets £30,000 a year for a part-time job, assuming that she does anything at all), he is a farmer of some kind, meaning that he inherited land and has been getting farming subsidies for that (for decades)..
The sort of nonsense that the ironically misnamed Goodwill is spouting (i.e. that the poor are only unable to live decently because they smoke, drink, buy takeaway food or the wrong kind of food, or otherwise waste money) has been around for a long time. It predates even Victorian ideology, and Orwell examined it in one or two of his 1930s essays.
Having said that, there is a grain of truth in that narrative about smoking, drinking, being unskilled in cooking etc, but —as Orwell noted— people living in poor circumstances want a little of what we might call comfort purchases .
The fact is that the cost of living has started to get out of control, a result of years of inflationary policies, some of which stem from the giveaways of Sunak during the “panicdemic”. Pay has not kept pace, State benefits even less so.
“Conservative” political drones and the corrupt msm are now starting to blame the poor (again) for their poverty, and suggesting everything from fasting to never heating homes to cooking classes, in fact everything except paying more to both workers and benefit recipients (and many people are both).
In fact, Goodwill is so dim that, despite having made it to junior minister several times, he has always been sacked before very long.
The fact is that the MPs we have now are mostly a very poor lot, a very decadent lot, a very stupid lot, and they have no interest in being better informed. They only understand one thing, but in our “free country” (as it used to be called) I am “not allowed” to mention it, or if I do, the poundland KGB (toytown police) will probably be at my door (again).
“YOUTH SUPPORT FOR A REACTIONARY RIGHT PARTY In order to test young people’s support for a new radical or reactionary right political party, we polled the same question in a specific poll of 1,010 18-24-year-olds living in Britain between 15 and 19 April 2022 via Focaldata, weighted to be representative of the national 18-24 year old population. Consistent with our findings of 18-24s from the full nationally representative poll (37% supported), 35% of 18-24 year olds said they would be likely to support a new party that says it wants to push back against ‘woke’ culture, reduce Government spending, reduce taxation, rule out any future Covid lockdowns, privatise the BBC and Channel 4, challenge the ‘islamisation of the UK’ and support unrestricted freedom of speech. Support was much higher among young men (43%) than young women (28%), and out of step with national trends, graduates were more likely to voice support for such a party (39%) than those without a degree (32%). We also asked those who said they would support such a party (n=358) whether they would continue to support such a party if critics accused this new party of being far right, a characterisation the new party strongly denied. Worryingly, an association with the far right did not have an impact among the majority of young supporters – as 46% said they would continue to support this party, 31% said they would not now support the party, and 23% remained undecided. Unlike among the general population, where violence and extreme views of populist and radical right parties can be disrupted by exposing associations with violence and extremism, support for reactionary politics among young people is unlikely to be easily unsettled by allegations of being far-right.”
From a report (in my view, very biased in its premises anyway) by or for the mainly Jewish “Hope not Hate” crowd.
Who says that a new party would do all of these? “Push back against ‘woke’ culture, reduce Government spending, reduce taxation, rule out any future Covid lockdowns, privatise the BBC and Channel 4, challenge the ‘islamisation of the UK’ and support unrestricted freedom of speech.“
Social nationalism would not “reduce Government spending“, nor necessarily reduce taxation. As for “unrestricted freedom of speech“, that is a naive and stupidly uninformed way of putting it. Direct personal threats should be and always have been unlawful in the UK, certainly in modern history.
The issue is free speech on social, political, religious and historical topics. One should be able to speak freely about Jews, blacks etc, and about Judaism, Islam, Christianity etc, inter alia, including the now-ludicrous “holocaust” farrago.
In any case, a real social national party would do a great dealmore than the above quotation says. As was said nearly a century ago, “neither Revolution nor Reaction“.
As to this so-called “Hope not Hate” crowd, I wonder where the money comes from to fund this self-describing “anti-hate” yet entirely hateful organization with its full-time paid staff? A Swedish billionaire heiress and her Jewish husband were apparently donating huge amounts, and may still be. I do not know. How much, if any, comes from Israeli sources? I do not know.

Is this how Western civilization will end, not with heroic or bloody battles, but with hordes of non-whites and riff-raff looting convenience stores, as everything runs out?
Whites are a tiny minority on earth and it's only our countries being flooded by genocidal levels of mass migration, yet we're the only ones not allowed to have racial/ethnic identity.
If they want to convince most people that lockdowns were a 'mistake' and therefore not a viable future solution, it's because they can then say that mass mandatory vaccination is the only option.
Locking 70 million people in their homes and stopping almost all access to healthcare will OF COURSE cause massive problems. But it doesn't result in young people, who've been out of lockdown for months and feeling perfectly healthy, suddenly having strokes and heart attacks.
After the “gas chambers” part of the WW2 “holocaust” narrative, the bulk of the “Covid” narrative, and within that the “vaccination” scam, must be the biggest hoax ever.
I grow increasingly pessimistic about the international situation.
The only chance that the Kiev regime of the Jew Zelensky has to survive in power there is to continue to get more (and better) arms from the NATO bloc. That, and to provoke a wider conflict.
We see that, in the past 24 hours, a series of Ukrainian (?) attacks on Crimea (where 90%+ of the population is Russian) and on Russian territory itself.
The Russian advance has slowed to a crawl.
Putin is not going to withdraw from either Crimea or the Donbass, yet he is not in a position to deal the Kiev a knockout blow conventionally, as things stand.
Tactical nuclear weapons offer the Russian side a potential edge. The Ukrainians have none. A very horrific possibility, because it might mean large urban areas being destroyed, with all the pain and hurt that would entail. In such a scenario, NATO might take the opportunity to assist the Kiev side directly.
Who was “to blame” for WW2? To say “Germany”, is trite and simplistic. What about WW1?
If WW3 starts out of this Ukraine situation, it might be that Russia’s finger will be on the trigger first, but that, again, is a simplistic way of looking at a complex situation.
Can it really be that we are looking at the possibility that much of civilized Europe will be destroyed for really nothing, that “nothing” being because the NWO cabals want both to encroach upon Russia, and also to support the corrupt, shambolic, failed “state” of Ukraine? Horrifying.

Cosmetic. In reality, such exams are far easier than they were in the 1980s, let alone 1970s and 1960s, facts which can easily be verified by looking at exam papers from different decades.
The System actually wants to keep the ridiculous grade inflation, because it creates meaningless public happiness: the pupils or students are happy because they can tell themselves that they got “A” grades, the teachers and schools can pretend that they are doing a good job (rather than the pitiful job most of them do most of the time), the parents —particularly the sharp-elbowed middle classes— are happy that their offspring are on track to go to this or that university or college and so populate the usual professions, and the Government can claim to be reforming the exam award system when it is doing no such thing.
Meanwhile, real standards, in the real world, in official and business administration, the professions, political life, fall like a stone. Look at the standard of MPs now! All the System parties. Jess Phillips is merely one of hundreds of deadhead examples.

To prevent the system becoming engulfed and backing sewage up into homes, water companies deploy emergency storm overflows. These send the extra volume directly into rivers and seas – but in the process, raw sewage and untreated waste are also released. pic.twitter.com/C62eCH08I9
Storm overflow discharges and accidental spills are a hazard to human health. Not only are the slicks deeply unsettling to behold (as this viral video shows), they are also toxic. In 2020, there were 153 reports of sickness from people using sites affected by overflow discharges.
The impact on wildlife is perhaps even greater. Combined with other substances, including those from farms – which were found in 2015 to be the biggest sources of river pollution – untreated wastewater is creating a harmful “chemical cocktail”.
Peter Hammond, a computational biology professor at UCL, has estimated that the scale of illegal discharges is around ten times greater than the EA’s estimates, and that these discharges include releases of untreated sewage at times when there has been no rain at all.
Last year, an amendment to the Environment Bill would have placed a legal duty on water companies not to pump waste into rivers, but it was voted down by 265 Tory MPs.

The global population is projected to reach 8 billion on 15 November 2022 according to a UN study 📈 pic.twitter.com/t7mtpCVNAN

The report also states that fertility has significantly fallen in recent decades for many countries. Today, two-thirds of the global population lives in a country or area where lifetime fertility is below 2.1 births per woman.
More than half of the projected increase in the global population up to 2050 will be concentrated in eight countries: the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Egypt, Ethiopia, India, Nigeria, Pakistan, the Philippines and the United Republic of Tanzania. pic.twitter.com/mIYRqAdTCd
The global population is far too high. Twice the number compared to 1970. For me the key question after the overall number is the proportion of European/white people as a proportion of the whole— shrinking rapidly. A very small minority already.
We need to prepare for a new world with a smaller population, and that population mainly “Aryan” (stricto sensu, post-Aryan or white European), in order to prepare a quantum leap in human evolution.

Don't kid yourself. There's more to being British than owning a piece of paper and if you can't see that by now, its over for you.
Actually, the first tweeter above is wrong even in his statistics. The “white” bloc is only about 85%, and that includes Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. In England, white people (you know— “the people formerly known as English”) are only about 80% of the population now. By 2050 or so? Probably only 50%; possibly 40%.
The British (real British, real English) are not reproducing, but the non-whites (immigrants and/or migrant-invaders and/or the descendants of earlier waves of migrants) certainly are. Indeed, the Muslims especially are certain that they are going to conquer Europe and particularly Britain by simply breeding us out of house and home.
Look at the Government benefits website. There are rates given for those who have children in polygamous (i.e. Muslim) marriages. We are literally paying the invaders to outbreed us and to replace us.
The contemporary English may like to pose as “Lions” and “Lionesses” in various sporting pleb-fests, but will not raise a hand to defend their own and their descendants’ racial and cultural future. Pathetic.

That of course would not be any excuse. Russia should not be using those backward people.
A reminder why (at least, largely why) the voters, most of them, rejected the Labour Party under Corbyn in 2019:

Not the whole truth of the matter, because there were concerns about the blacks, especially black women, around Corbyn, and that whole anti-white mindset, but the Jew-Zionists in Labour, and in the mass media, were at the core of Labour’s unpopularity with the voters.
A relentless attack, every single day.
I do not see Labour as any more “electable” now. It has no policies of interest to speak of and, despite its present lead in the opinion polls, I doubt whether Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer will ever be Prime Minister.
True, Liz Truss, the current pseudo-Conservative front-runner, seems an absurd person to notionally lead the UK, but is she any worse than, say, Boris-idiot? Indeed, looking at the past decade, is the Truss woman really that much worse than those idiots David Cameron-Levita and Theresa May?
I detect no serious public enthusiasm for Starmer-Labour, and I think that recent by-election results support that. What does the Conservative Party now stand for? Globalism and mass immigration? Finance capitalism? Not much else. Labour, though? Nothing different. In fact, many would find it hard to say that Labour now stands for anything at all.
For those who missed them, here are a few profiles of Labour MPs:

1945 was a setback, but not the complete defeat that it seemed at the time. The Reich was crushed, but the essence of National Socialism has survived in other forms, other places. It is still possible to create the basis for the necessary quantum leap in human evolution.

I’m taking next week off so there won’t be any new cartoons from me. I need a break. Just want to say how grateful I am to those who support me on here, particularly when the psychotic loons enter attack mode. It means a lot.
This hideous nonentity has ‘psychology’ and ‘human rights’ in her bio while she waddles about Twitter attacking people who have spent two years trying to protect human rights and highlighting dangerous mass-psychosis by calling them Nazis. What an absolute turd for brains. https://t.co/n8tiS6a948
Stuchbery used to call himself “historian“, but was only ever one in the manner of someone who travels around (Germany, mainly), copies tourist information he sees here and there, then collates it into tweets.
Nothing wrong about that, in itself; in fact I have always said that I enjoy his tweets on mediaeval and Renaissance history (he is usually wrong about history after about 1880), but he is no historian.
As a former police officer, I’m ashamed of being associated with the modern force. It’s ill-disciplined, politicised, divisive, is failing the public, too many officers are unprofessional, look unkempt and scruffy and many can hardly speak or write English pic.twitter.com/nnuoToCb41
Exactly. I read the local newspapers online, the ones for coastal Hampshire and Dorset. The court reports are interesting inasmuch that, even for me, a one-time barrister (albeit far more civil and commercial etc than criminal), the sentences often surprise by their leniency.
I am far from being a “hanger and flogger”, and I favour clemency where possible, perhaps even too much, but I now read of people who have committed crimes of considerable violence and brutality, not to mention egregious theft, being effectively “let off”.
You have to work quite hard to get imprisoned in the UK these days (unless the Jews say that you have been rude about them).
Example? A few years ago, I heard tell of a man, an accountant aged in his 40s, who had a paid job, I think part-time, with a really worthwhile hospice charity not far from where I myself live (about 2-3 miles away). That person stole (embezzled) £40,000 from the charity.
In court, the embezzler must have had Counsel very good at mitigation because, on the premise that the defendant’s parents had stumped up the £40,000 to compensate the hospice, the defendant got off with a suspended sentence, despite the egregious breach of trust, despite also the fact that he was only caught by chance or Fate, and despite the fact that he had initially tried to blame more junior staff.
No. Far too lenient.
How can this be? Nearly one fifth of GPs work on average 26 hours a week as 50% of all patients struggle to get through to their family doctor.
For once I agree with that stupid woman. GPs, at least many, may be overpaid, and those that want an easier life may find it congenial to drop by the surgery a couple of days a week and still pick up a gross pay of about £60,000 in many cases.
Incidentally, I have no animus against my own GP, a very polite person whom I have not actually seen face to face for years, but with whom I am reasonably satisfied, and who monitors me via routine blood tests etc, and sends the odd letter.
Well, this week I again trounced political journalist John Rentoul, scoring 8/10 as against his poor 4/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2 and 10.
In the interests of transparency, I should admit that I gave myself a point for question 7 despite not getting it exactly right (I thought 6 x 4 inches); close enough though, imo.

In fact, Bone is not always wrong, but his manner is, usually.
As for Andrea Jenkyns, she not only screamed, like the fishwives of legend, at protesting crowds yesterday, but actually stuck a finger up at them; neither the action of a serious politician nor that of a lady.
Most of the serious Conservative Party politicians, or at least those who take themselves seriously, have left the sinking Johnsonian ship of state. Left aboard are the deadheads, complete idiots, nobodies, and the “who he?” and “who she?” MPs, so obscure that even I, who take an interest in who’s who at Westminster, am at a loss and have to look them up on Wikipedia.
Part-Jew/Levantine poseur and chancer “Boris”-idiot now intends to cling on at Downing Street as long as he can, until removed.
I have still not discovered whether it is within the rules of the 1922 Committee for Johnson to put his own name forward for election as Conservative Party leader. I know that leaders who lose a vote of confidence among Conservative Party MPs cannot stand again, but “Boris”-idiot recently won a vote of confidence.
As blogged previously, if Johnson put his name forward, he might, even now, find himself one of the top two on the ballot, with many other candidates splitting the vote.
In that circumstance, the vote would then be a matter for Conservative Party members, choosing between two candidates. Johnson might win. If he did, he would have another two and a half years as Prime Minister, potentially.
This is a full-blown political crisis now. My main concern, beyond the effect on the country itself, is that there is no social-national party to take advantage of that crisis.
You can see why the ZOG/communitarian UK police are becoming hysterical at the prospect of what they are pleased to call “right wing terrorism“, meaning outbreaks of revolt among the British population.

It’s going to be fun watching a parade of Tory goons march out to tell us that under their leadership they will restore trust and fix everything. The very same people who’ve been lying their arses off, trashing the economy and peddling divisive zealotry until about 5 minutes ago.
Loving the deranged attempts to lionise Johnson – pretending that grotesque clown did great things in power. No. He lied, troughed about, broke the law, disgraced his office, divided the country and shattered trust. You Tories need to face up to the historic failure you endorsed.
Only Boris Fucking Johnson could claim success out of abject failure, leave us guessing whether he’s actually resigned or not, then carry on as if this wasn’t an unprecedented collapse of govt and his own authority. And only a profoundly corrupt and cowardly party would allow it.
Johnson only backed Brexit as his best chance of becoming PM. He tipped it to Leave and the years of political chaos, economic damage still unravelling. And all for what? The briefest of ego trips for a narcissist with zero interest in government or public service. Worst PM ever.
Meanwhile, the egg from which “Boris” hatched, part-Jew bully and fake, Stanley Johnson, having been given £3.4M for his, in reality, far less valuable house (by the HS2 people, but effectively on government instruction, in order to keep “Boris” sweet), has (like the rootless part-Jew cosmopolitan he is) not only abandoned the UK (he has fled overseas to live in France), but has also taken on foreign (French) citizenship. He is also entitled to Israeli citizenship, which he may or may not have requested.
Maybe there is only one way to clear out the dishonesty, incompetence & bass idiocy of the last 6 years in British politics & that is to let them finally burn it all down. Not sure anything less than a catastrophe will wake the British people up to what these people have done.
…especially if social nationalism can then soar aloft.

Very alarming, but that neither proves that the warming is (or mainly is), man-made, nor that the cause is (or mainly is) CO2 emissions, nor that anything concrete can be done, in view of the fact that the world is overpopulated, and that means overpopulated by those of Asian and African origin.
The world population has more than doubled since 1970, and the bulk of that has been in China and India, with other Asian and African countries also contributing.
The world population must be reduced to a far smaller figure, perhaps 20% or even 10% of where it now is, and the remaining population should be mainly European in terms of race and culture.
If the above reduction in quantity, and increase in quality, can be done, the foundation will have been laid for a quantum leap in human evolution.
More than 25 years later, there has never been another mass shooting in the U.K. involving handguns, and shootings of any kind are vanishingly rare.

The stupid Huffington Post failing to point out that mass shootings in the UK have always been “vanishingly rare“: only three have ever happened in the UK and, of those, one happened in the 1980s (Hungerford), one in the 1990s (Dunblane), and one (in Cumbria) in 2010, i.e. after the prohibition laws of 1997.
The hysterical 1997 (anti-) gun laws in the UK are yet another example of law not only made to immediately satisfy whipped-up public opinion, but also law behind which is little thought or knowledge.
The Huffington Post or HuffPost is a very poor “news/comment” outlet.
I have just now seen that a HuffPost report about me is now (online version) illustrated by a 2-min video of some completely other person giving a talk at what looks like a Labour Party meeting! Is that meant to be me?
I might add that that 2016 report, penned by one Steven Hopkins, is no better than semi-literate.
Talking about poor/inaccurate news media: after I was wrongfully —and actually unlawfully— disbarred in 2016 (see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/), the Independent published a one-sided account of the matter, and also a photograph of a barrister, robed, smoking a cigarette. A neck-down photograph. It was published as if the person shown was me, but in fact I have never smoked cigarettes, and always wore far better shoes!
Conservative Party leadership
Seems that even some, even some msm political journalists, are divided on whether “Boris”-idiot has actually “resigned” as Con leader or not; if not, then he could stand immediately for the leadership, again:
This – the opening of Boris Johnson’s statement on Thursday – agrees to a leadership contest and hand over to a successor
OK, can we just park this. Boris has resigned. A new leader is about to be elected. He is not planning to un-resign. He has told everyone in his inner-circle that's it. His focus now is on taking revenge against the people he thinks betrayed him. (👀 He's looking at you Rishi…)
Beyond the Westminster carnival there’s a drumbeat – Germany dims the lights to cope with Russia gas supply crunch. Next British PM could face an unenviable choice this winter – ration energy use, or allow the price mechanism to do the job for you? https://t.co/nGQiXEbce4
Indeed. On the other hand, there may be a race-and-culture aspect. Will enough voters disregard the fact (if it is a fact) that the new Conservative Party leader is (if he or she is) black or brown?
I would say that, in the affluent south of England, and in pockets of affluence elsewhere, very many voters will do almost anything to preserve the supposed value of their houses and other assets, and so will vote “Conservative” even if the party leader is an Indian or other non-European. It may be a very different story in the “left-behind” areas of the north of England, Wales, degenerating coastal towns etc.
It may be, that in much of England and Wales, many voters simply will not vote for a party whose leader is non-European.
Starmer is, of course, English, and the fact that he is a puppet of the Jewish lobby and (almost identical) Israel lobby is “caviar to the general” for most voters; it goes over their heads.
Even if only, say, 10% of voters are swayed by such considerations, those aspects may be key in a close fight.
With Wallace out, the prospect of the Tories electing another middle-aged white man is significantly diminished. And that's a problem for Starmer and Labour.
Weirdest thing about Boris is the "nothing ever sticks to him, he always gets away with it" narrative. He was PM for less than three years. There haven't been many Prime Ministers less successful at getting away with it.
When people say that about Boris-idiot, they are not just talking about his shambolic 3 years as PM, but the equally crazy preceding couple of decades, including his two times as MP (for different constituencies), his disastrous failure as Foreign Secretary, and his spell as Mayor of London.

I have come to realize, or realize anew, and more pointedly, that the vast bulk of British people, at least, are easily manipulated, fooled, and ruled. The 2+ years since the start of the “panicdemic”/”scamdemic” have made that glaringly obvious. Law, constitution, civil rights, Parliamentary “democracy”, decency, all easily rolled over by a conspiracy of a relative few in government and msm, most of whom probably themselves believe at least some of the lying propaganda they shovel out over the country.
