Sadly, the Jewish lobby had me expelled from Twitter, so I cannot personally enlighten that first tweeter.

It is strange, though, how the Remain whiners, as the first tweeter is (a Jewish woman, and very pro-EU, resident in —as the newspapers are wont to say— “leafy” Wallingford, Oxfordshire—…most Remain whiners seem to be in circumstances not too uncomfortable) are also the “lockdown” and facemask zealots. It must be by reason of a wish for the State or —in the EU case— super-state to lay down strict rules etc. Psychological nexus rather than political nexus.

Wildlife corridors

I have been proposing wildlife corridors and a “wildlife grid” for many years. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/10/29/butterflies-risk-wiped-rewilding-corridors-arent-created/

Coronavirus

“I know it has been said before, but it’s worth repeating because Matt Hancock would like you to believe the opposite. 

The virus poses little threat to healthy people under 60.

The over-60s should take particular care. They must make their calculations.

 As a 68-year-old man who has not been totally written off by his GP, my chances of dying from Covid-19 if I catch it are supposedly about one and a half per cent. Not huge but not negligible.” [Stephen Glover, Daily Mail]

I was interested to hear Rocco Forte of the hotel/catering “empire” on Radio 4 Today. Very much anti the “panicdemic”, and making all the good points: more people dying of other conditions (eg flu) than of “Covid-19”; the lack of peril to almost anyone under 40; the economic damage (his companies are about to lay off thousands of employees) etc. Also, Forte has himself actually had “the virus” (“an unpleasant 3 weeks“, he said) and recovered, despite being 75 years old.

Whatever one’s view of “the virus”, the incompetence of the present UK government and its cronies (eg the well-connected but pathetic careerist bumbler, Dido Harding) is incredible.

Migration-invasion

Again. Why is Europe, or more accurately, why is the System, tolerating this?

The more you give (in), the more (((they))) want…#PoundOfFlesh.

Note the dictatorial tone…that’s what happens when you make concessions to “them”.

Labour now has a leader who is basically a System/Jewish lobby doormat. A “Labour Friend of Israel” and married to a Jewish wife (a property lawyer) with whom he is bringing up their children as if fully Jewish.

I notice that, even in the present circumstances, when the government of the UK has been taken over by a ragbag of anti-British globalist incompetents, Labour cannot get ahead of the misnamed “Conservatives” in the opinion polls. Unsurprising, when it scarcely opposes any Government policies…

Jewish lobby tool Ian Austin, the ex-MP, is very odd indeed. As far as I know, he has never explained why he tweeted, a couple of years ago, that hard-core pornography, particularly that involving bestiality, should be decriminalized. Seems a really nasty individual (as well as having been one of the worst expenses cheats in Parliament).

Quelle surprise…

Well, there it is. The Jews (Jew Zionists) have retaken the Labour fortress that is now a ruin, and are wiping out remnants of “old Labour” (socialist Labour) found here and there.

I shed no tears for Corbyn. I have never been a Labour Party supporter, member, or even voter. Corbyn was weak on the “JQ”; opposing Israel, yes, but at the same time weaselling by paying lip-service to the “holocaust” farrago, to Jewish holidays etc. He should have come out fully against the (((Lobby))) and its pernicious influence over politics, culture, migration-invasion, law etc in the UK. Corbyn allowed the Jewish/Zionist lobby to crush him and, with him, what was left of the Labour Party.

This situation might be hopeful for social nationalism. Now that there is in reality —and clearly-seen— one System party, notionally split into “Labour” and “Conservative”, the people can see that only a new movement (not just party, but movement) can lead them against those fake parties of decadence and evil.

The trouble with that is that such a party would be akin to the Labour Party that lost, in 2019, the General Election, and lost it not because any other party was preferred to Labour, but because former Labour voters refused to vote Labour or at all…

The real British people will not vote for an old-style “socialist” party and especially not for one that wants a black-brown/mixed-race Britain. Not in numbers large enough to form a government.

Any new Corbyn party might become a significant force though, in that it would get the votes of many of the ethnic minorities, as well as some of the votes of public service personnel and metro virtue-signallers.

If Corbyn Labour got about 32% of the popular vote at the 2019 General Election (the Conservative Party nearly 44%), then any new Corbyn party would probably get about 15% at best. On a good day, 20%; on a bad day, 10%. Not enough to win very many MPs, in all likelihood, but enough to finish off official Labour under Starmer. Hm…

If, in any general election in the next 4 years, official Labour were to get, say, 20% or 25%, then its cadre of MPs will reduce to double figures.

That says it all…

Incidentally, did I read somewhere that Keir Starmer and his Jewish wife have buy-to-let properties? Not sure.

Brilliant. In a nutshell…

Cartoon seen

Well…fancy that! You live and learn…

I thought that that cartoon might be a kind of hoax, but it turns out to be absolutely right: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender#Etymology_and_usage; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Money; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Money#Sex_reassignment_of_David_Reimer.

The above should be better known (to the public).

It seems that the influence of Plato lives on…

Oil, Fracking, and George Osborne

Remember George Osborne, that nasty little part-Jew who was Chancellor until a few years ago? Remember how his Big Idea was that fracking would be Britain’s bold new frontier, firing up the “Northern Powerhouse” (his other Big Idea)? Well that was then.

Today, the “Northern Powerhouse” is just a political footnote. As for fracking, after being stalled by reason of its environmental effects, it has been killed off by the fall in oil prices. Not only in the UK; USA and Canada too. Today, oil prices fell further: “Brent was trading 3.5 per cent down at $37.74, while WTI stood down 3.6 per cent at $36.05.” [City AM]. Fracking is completely uneconomic below USD $40 (some say $60) a barrel.

As for Osborne, I don’t know what it is about the British, but they always imagine that whatever political careerist or chancer becomes Chancellor of the Exchequer, he is some kind of genius. Then, it was George Osborne, and before him others such as Nigel Lawson and Denis Healey, inter alia. Now it is Indian “clever boy”, Rishi Sunak. (Healey was in fact highly educated and cultured, though basically an enemy; a Bilderberger and globalist).

“[Critics] were essentially saying that Jews were liars [about “antisemitism” in Labour]“, says Gideon Falter of the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” fake charity. Well, his own evidence in trials, given on oath, has not always been accepted by the criminal or other courts: see, for example, the Rowan Laxton case.

Kay Burley is not really interviewing Gideon Falter; she is facilitating him and his propaganda.

Note the (((typical))) arrogant Zionist triumphalism: Falter tells Labour what must be done…

Had Corbyn and his cohorts come out fully and forcefully against the Jewish-Zionist lobby, it might have been a gamechanger in British politics. As it is, the matter remains unresolved, and the struggle goes on.

Coronavirus

I heard a piece on BBC World Service about “the virus” as it is in Prague and the Czech Republic generally.

Earlier in 2020, the Czech government instituted one of the most severe “lockdowns” (and other measures) in the world. Now? The Czech Republic apparently has the second-highest rate of infections [known] in the world.

Nothing was said of how many people were having to be hospitalized or how many are dying. A temporary large hospital has been constructed, but according to the BBC reporter, the ventilators shown were “wheezing” without patients.

Conclusion? Nothing much from the BBC; from me, the conclusion that testing is up, known infections are up, but —perhaps— the number of actual deaths from the virus is not much —if at all— up. Also, that the severe “lockdown” of earlier this year has not stopped infection but —at most— merely delayed it.

It might have been better to allow infection to proliferate in the Spring and Summer, when hospitals are less busy generally. Same in the UK.

In the UK, the “lockdown” (shutdown of virtually the whole society) was meant to be, or at least presented to the public as, temporary, for a few weeks only, to “flatten the curve” of infection, the numbers hospitalized etc, and so “save the NHS”. In the contemporary phrase, “that went well”…

Here we are 6+ months later and, while the UK death rate (from “the virus” if not from everything else) is now low, technical infection is high and we still have “local” lockdowns amounting to a semi-national lockdown; also of course the intrusive and unnecessary facemask nonsense.

World Trade Organization

What interests me is that “she sits on the Boards of Standard Chartered Bank, Twitter, Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (GAVI), and the African Risk Capacity (ARC).[1]” [Wikipedia]. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ngozi_Okonjo-Iweala

My NWO nose is twitching…both Twitter and the Vaccine Alliance…and major commercial banks. She was also 2-i-c at the World Bank, and worked at the Bank for 25 years. She is on the IMF Board too.

The candidate became a U.S. citizen in 2019.

The “Great Reset”…

The “Red Wall” areas reconsider the future

“Boris Johnson’s pitch to would-be first-time Tory voters in the North of England was threefold: getting Brexit done; “levelling up” the economy; and taking their side on culture war issues against the spectre of the metropolitan, liberal elite.

While the success of the Prime Minister’s Brexit strategy hangs in the balance, those last two aims are in tatters. As constituencies across the North of England suffer soaring infection rates, new restrictions on their civil liberties, and impending economic Armageddon, the bright and optimistic vision of last December lies smouldering in ruins, like the last fags in the gutter outside a shuttered Liverpool pub.” [Standpoint magazine]

https://standpointmag.co.uk/issues/october-november-2020/rebuilding-the-red-wall-tier-by-tier/

A fairly interesting article, but omitting the key fact about the 2019 General Election, which is that the Conservative Party did not win it; Labour lost it. The Conservative Party won only by default. Huge numbers of 2017 Labour voters did not vote Labour in 2019, true…but relatively few of those voted Conservative. More of the 2017 Labour voters did not vote at all in 2019.

Andrew Carnegie was right: it is a disgrace to die rich (unless perhaps the deceased’s will does public good as a major part of it). Today’s billionaires should take note. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Carnegie

When I was a small child, living in Caversham Heights, on the edge of Reading, where the suburbs of the Berkshire town meet the Oxfordshire woods and fields, my mother would often take me to the public library in Caversham itself, which library was founded by Carnegie, and had a plaque set into the exterior wall to that effect. I have never forgotten that. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Carnegie#1901%E2%80%931919:_Philanthropist

The foundation stone was laid in 1905, and the Library opened in 1907.

[Caversham Library, photographed on reopening in 1948: http://collections.readingmuseum.org.uk/index.asp?page=record&mwsquery=%7Btotopic%7D=%7BReading%20Chronicle%7D&filename=REDMG&hitsStart=825]

https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1113456; https://carnegielegacyinengland.wordpress.com/2016/09/18/caversham-library/

When I used to go there, aged about 4 or 5 and thereafter, from about 1960, it looked just the same as in the photograph. I recognize that circular leather seat (it was red shiny leather, perhaps very much of its time: see The Maltese Falcon).

[Caversham Library, photographed in 2018]

When the library opened, in 1907, the whole area of Caversham and beyond, from the north bank of the Thames at Reading, was still part of Oxfordshire. It only became part of Berkshire in 1911.

Even more sinister is the way that this “study”, poorly conceived and carried out, was first published months ago, and is now being pushed again in the msm Lugenpresse (Lie-Press). None dare call it conspiracy…

The only way to stop the slide to tyranny is to directly impact those who have engineered the present Coronavirus toytown police state which is halfway to a real police state. I am talking about Boris-idiot and his cohorts.

More evidence that Labour, though not in the opinion-poll trough it was in when Corbyn was leader [translation: when the entire Jewish-influenced or owned mass media were trashing Labour and Corbyn on a daily basis], has not broken through in terms of public support, despite the manifest incompetence and unpleasantness of the Boris-idiot “Conservative” government.

All Boris-idiot is good for is cracking jokes and playing the public entertainer. Anything else— rubbish.

Well, not so surprising. After all, at least half the American public (and the British public, for that matter), still believe that the German government of the 1940s “gassed” millions of Jews, despite no credible evidence ever having been adduced for that.

The fakery of the “holocaust” farrago since the 1950s has contaminated politics, law, the mass media, and of course modern historical study and authorship; that has been particularly the case since the real TV/Hollywood campaign started in the 1970s: Schindler’s List (1993) and so on. Most people have no idea that that film was an adaptation of a novel by an Australian who was only 3 years old at the start of the Second World War, and only 9 when it finished.

Ironically, reducing the population of the Earth is one of the things that David Attenborough is most right about (so long as those reduced in numbers are non-European).

Recent anti-lockdown protest in Oxford Street

https://twitter.com/JolyonMaugham/status/1320040582350278657?s=20

The above tweet (commenting upon another tweet) was tweeted a few days ago by the egregious Jo Maugham, a prolific tweeter who likes to virtue-signal, a pose damaged when it was widely publicized that he had brutally beaten to death a fox.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jolyon_Maugham; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jolyon_Maugham#Killing_of_a_fox.

Maugham, a half-Jew by actual parentage [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jolyon_Maugham#Early_life; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Benedictus#Life], and who is a barrister (QC) in the field of tax law, is presumably someone of quite high intelligence, but his pronouncements and judgment calls often show, in my opinion, a lack of commonsense. Not just the fox-killing incident. Maugham was or is a leading supporter of Remain vis a vis the EU; also, if I recall aright, of the doomed joke party, Change UK, which bombed at the European Elections and General Election of 2019. Now look at that tweet featured above.

People protesting against the increasingly totalitarian nature of the (supposedly) anti-“virus” measures taken by a panicked government in the UK, are not “bringing death to the innocent“. Au contraire, the government “lockdowns”, semi-shutdown of the NHS etc are killing far more than the “virus” so many seem to fear.

As to the Extinction Rebellion loonies, if Maugham thinks that their antics will in any way “save the planet from destruction“, he is in a strange part of cloud-cuckoo land (see above for links to my articles about Extinction Rebellion etc).

A different viewpoint to that of Maugham:

I can only assume that that tweeter is unaware of my existence…(though I never use “Right”/”Left” terminology).

One sees how the System in the UK used “Tommy Robinson”, the EDL, and the “Football Lads’ Alliance” etc as “controlled opposition”, which meant that instead of something like the above, the UK had pointless marches and brawling by the bottle-throwing dupes of those organizing and those (((behind the scenes))). Result? No threat to the System, and the “protestors”, like their idiotic American counterparts, were even “pro-Israel”. Talk about slaves loving their chains!

Nazim Ali Tribunal hearing

Image preview
[above: Nizam Ali’s pre-hearing public statement]

The latest “Campaign Against Antisemitism (“CAA”) “lawfare” outrage (along with the continuing affaire Chabloz) is the complaint against Nazim Ali, a pharmacist, who made a speech at the Al Quds march in London three years ago, in 2017.

The “CAA” did its usual thing of sneaking around hoping to record something “antisemitic” so that the CAA might complain to the police or to professional regulators.

The case is now before the professional regulatory tribunal for the pharmaceutical profession.

The same thing happened to Jez Turner of London Forum. His speech in Whitehall was overheard by CAA snoop Gideon Falter and/or others. The police and then Crown Prosecution Service [CPS] declined to prosecute, so the CAA used “lawfare”, going to the High Court to have the no-prosecution decision subjected to judicial review. The result was a stalemate, but the Crown Prosecution Service did “reassess” the matter, eventually prosecuting Jez Turner, who was, after a Crown Court trial, eventually sentenced to a year in prison, serving half. A hero.

I was subjected to similar persecution by both the CAA and the very similar or allied group, with partly-overlapping membership, “UK Lawyers for Israel”: https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2017/07/13/when-i-was-a-victim-of-a-malicious-zionist-complaint/; https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/.

After my unjust disbarment in October 2016, Falter, the “Director” of the CAA Jew-Zionist pressure group, said to the national Press (Judenpresse…) that my case proved that anyone in a recognized profession who said anything the CAA deemed “antisemitic” would suffer “devastating professional consequences“. Google “Ian Millard barrister” for more.

The Jew-Zionists succeeded in both getting me disbarred in 2016 (though it took nearly three years) and in having me removed from Twitter in 2018. They failed in several attempts to have me arrested and/or prosecuted. They have persecuted me in other ways (eg by having Amazon remove all my book reviews, at which I was a “Top 50” reviewer out of millions). “They” are enemies of European civilization.

A war on free speech, by Zionist Jew pests.

So here we have such a case, “lawfare” against pharmacist Nazim Ali. Good luck to him.

What goes around comes around…

Heard on Radio 4 News this morning: “…before the festive period“. Before the what?! The...”festive period“?! No no no. Not “the festive period”, not “Hanukkah”, not “Kwanza”, not “Happy Holidays”. Christmas. That’s what you meant to say. Christmas.

Jewish influence. I noticed the same when I lived in New Jersey, 30 years ago.

I doubt that, but only because the System drones will soon be little more than fertilizer for the fields of tomorrow.

Remembrance of times past

Saw something that sparked memories. In 2002, having taken a lease of a large country house on the Cornwall-Devon border and, a month or so later having joined provincial barristers’ chambers in Exeter, I was asked to sit as a “Lord Justice of Appeal” at a moot (a mock trial), held in the ancient Guildhall in the main street of Exeter.

My fellow “Lords Justices of Appeal” were a Professor Tettenborn from Exeter University (now at Swansea University and an influential legal academic), and the Mayor of Exeter, a humourless elderly fellow.

The three contenders were all final year law students. The one who stood out and was the unquestioned winner of the contest was a young man of Armenian or part-Armenian origins called Taghdissian. He was far ahead of the other two in both advocacy and law and was a worthy victor. However, before awarding him his laurels, the “Court” (privately, not aired in public) had to consider a technical matter, an ethical violation by him. He nearly lost his otherwise well-merited win.

I spoke to him at the reception afterward. My assessment: a sharp-witted, polite but somewhat arrogant young man who, if he mellowed, might be an asset to our chambers.

A year or two later, I heard that, in the chambers that that person had joined (not the same chambers to which I belonged, though I had in fact told both our senior Clerk and my Head of Chambers, who is now a circuit judge, that he was worth offering a place if he applied), there had been one or two suggestions of inappropriate personal behaviour from that young barrister. I do not think that anything more happened about that, though (and I know only what I was told, though told on good authority).

Now, I have just seen that that student of 2002 is still a member of those other chambers, and has political ambitions, being not only the head of the local Conservatives but having been a several-times candidate.

Taghdissian stood for the Conservatives at the 2017 General Election (for the Exeter seat), but came second. He was also one of six Conservative Party candidates on their party list for South West England in the 2019 European Elections; no Conservative Party candidates were elected. He had previously stood at the 2015 General Election, in the constituency of Cardiff West; placed second.

Taghdissian is evidently determined to get into major-league politics. I shall be interested to follow his progress.

That may be (and I myself did not get to Moscow until 1993) but my view is that, even under Sovietism, the family bonds in Russia were as strong as in the West, indeed more so.

As with “black lives matter” etc, if people cannot see that the “panicdemic” is a giant conspiracy (built on a real but limited public health problem) then they must be dim indeed.

Prince Harry

The “cuck” “prince” is now once again talking about “unconscious bias”. What about “unconscious bias” in favour of people like him? After all, were he not a “royal prince”, who would be interested in “his” views (the views driven into him by the Mulatta)? In fact, looking at him, I think that Harry would find it hard to get any ordinary job, certainly beyond the entry level.

Exactly. An excellent training exercise for the SBS, but in the end the African migrant-invaders won. They are here, probably in some mothballed business hotel (not exactly the Ritz, but, hey! a lot of homeless Brits would take it!). Once their details (probably fake) are logged, the invaders will be given about £50 a week pocket money and eventually found housing that should go to British families and individuals. Disgrace.

Hitchens is right. As for me, I too hate mobs and disorder, but also hate a society where the people are slaves or near-robots. The right balance between conformity and liberty (and licence) must be struck. The UK has, in the past 20 years, and plainly so in the past year, gone too far towards not only a serf-state, but a stupidly-governed serf-state.

Again, I agree with Hitchens. I favour public service broadcasting, but the BBC is no longer that, or only incidentally. Lord Reith’s dictum, Inform. Educate, Entertain, is either ignored now, or complied with only in parody form.

Deadhead MPs, An Occasional Series: the Selaine Saxby story

16 Comments

Foreword

The General Election of 2019 has washed up an almost embarrassing number of new deadhead MPs onto my golden shore. I have now an even wider choice than heretofore. Out of that mass, I have now chosen Selaine Saxby [Con, North Devon].

I have to admit that I had never heard of Selaine Saxby until yesterday. The material available online about her is sparse, but I think that one can come to an outline understanding of her character and background from what can be found.

Selaine Saxby has very recently been in the news, with others, for her truly stupid and unpleasant intervention in the “free school meals” debate: https://www.northdevongazette.co.uk/news/north-devon-mp-makes-statement-after-social-media-post-1-6899273; https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/tory-mps-ben-bradley-crack-den-brothel-free-school-meal-vouchers-a4572832.html;

Twitter has had much to say about Saxby, mostly critical:

What I find extraordinary about Selaine Saxby’s original comment is not only that it shows a complete absence of any compassion for the poor and struggling, but that it also attacks the very people most likely to vote Conservative: business people, company directors etc.

Selaine Saxby’s background

I had not previously encountered the Christian name “Selaine”. My brief researches have discovered that (unlike, say, Sharon, Sarah, Selena) “Selaine” has no classical or other meaning. There is some suggestion that it might be of French origin, but I have discovered that, in the whole of the past century, and in the whole world where records are available, only 80 girls were named Selaine, almost all between the years 1970-1990, and mostly in Brazil. A mystery.

Selaine Saxby was born in November 1970 in Coventry, and will be 50 within a few weeks. Her father was a school headmaster. Her school education is not, apparently, in the public domain; she then read Mathematics and Management at Cambridge.

I saw a tweet to the effect that Selaine Saxby is “a lawyer”, but that seems to be wrong. I can find no trace of her ever having qualified as either solicitor or barrister.

Having been born in 1970, Selaine Saxby probably graduated in the early 1990s, about 1991 or 1992. The years between then and 2000 are blank, it seems. What was she doing in those ~8 years? Sitting on a beach? Surfing? Working for MI5? We do not know.

Selaine Saxby started an online sport bra company (Lessbounce Ltd) in 2000. It seems to have been modestly successful, but was liquidated in 2016, with debts.

Other activities have included raising money for charity (though she seems to have done that as a “consultant”, i.e. she was paid, so there is no need to look upon her as having been particularly altruistic…).

Her Lessbounce (Lesbounce?) company was obviously no more than modestly successful. When it collapsed in 2016, she had already been working for a year as salaried Chief of Staff (big title for smallish job?) for gay Conservative Party MP, Ben Howlett [Con, Bath, 2015-2017]. As to Ms. Saxby’s own private life, Wikipedia, the several profiles of her online, and the MP’s own website, are silent.

After Ben Howlett lost his seat at Bath in 2017, Ms. Saxby’s job disappeared, so she became a schoolteacher (mathematics) at a state secondary in Bideford (North Devon) for what seems to have been only a few months, until a date in 2019. She had previously fought a doomed campaign at Llanelli (Wales), in 2015, in which contest she finished last out of four candidates.

Ideology

Nothing much is known of Ms. Saxby’s ideological stances except that she voted Leave in 2016, and was elected on the “get Brexit done” basis. Her recent comments seem to reflect unthinking “Daily Mail” views on social welfare. She seems to have said nothing publicly on questions of race and culture.

Attitude to money

I note that, since her election, Selaine Saxby has claimed expenses which have been not huge, and I find it odd that her “staffing costs” seem to have been only £885 in the past year (the maximum claimable is something like £165,000). She claims to take “a packed lunch” to Westminster! If true, rather silly and almost vulgar in view of MPs’ pay and expenses, especially when MPs get excellent restaurant food at Westminster for a few pounds, i.e. heavily subsidized, like the old Soviet “Kremlyovsky payok” (Kremlin ration).

I wonder whether she is not basically a bit of a skinflint. That would seem to explain her comments about both hungry children and struggling businesses.

Ms. Saxby is, incredibly, a member of the Work and Pensions Select Committee in the Commons (she gets extra pay for that).

Conclusion

Selaine Saxby’s recent comments well qualify her as a deadhead MP. I have read her own website and what has been written about her online by Wikipedia, in the Press, on Conservative Home, the House of Commons online resource etc. Phrasing this in the colloquial, I do not detect a lot going on there…

Having said that, she is not going anywhere. North Devon has alternated between Conservative and LibDem for decades, and before that, Liberal, in toto for over a century. Nick Harvey held the seat for the LibDems for 23 years (1992-2015), and Selaine Saxby took over the seat from another Conservative Party MP in 2019.

The collapse of LibDemmery nationwide has meant that a number of their former strongholds are now safe Conservative seats. North Devon is one. It seems, therefore, that Ms. Saxby will be around for some time.

Update, 28 November 2023

Update, 5 July 2024

Selaine Saxby was voted out at GE 2024: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Devon_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

I suppose that she will go back to teaching in some girls’ school, taking in daily her briefly-famous packed lunch.

Update, 20 June 2025

Well, Selaine Saxby seems to have disappeared into the obscurity from which she emerged in 2019, though she is still tweeting once every few weeks on Twitter/X.

Incidentally, I see that at least one of my conclusions around her was wrong, i.e. that LibDemmery was collapsing; I think I can claim that I was right at the time, but that was 5 years ago; the times and tides have moved on.

The collapse in public support for both Labour and Conservative parties since the 2024 General Election has, ludicrously, boosted the LibDems by default, mainly in areas which otherwise might have stayed “Con”. Most polling seems to suggest that the LibDems will continue to have 50-75 MPs even after 2029, bad news for Selaine Saxby (if, as may be the case, she harbours hopes of a return to Parliament as Con MP for North Devon).

The madness continues

More English than the English

Happened to hear on radio the plummy voice of a “Conservative” MP, and for the past months the Minister for International Trade, which turned out to be that of a Sri Lankan/Indian, albeit born in London, called Ranil Jayawardena [Con, North East Hampshire]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranil_Jayawardena. The constituency is one of the safest Conservative Party seats in the UK.

From where the plummy voice, though? Not from his local comprehensive school, which he attended before attending a nearby sixth-form college. The London School of Economics? Doubtful. He was then at Lloyds Banking Group, where he worked for several years until elected as MP in 2015.

Looking at the way things are going, wih Rishi Sunak talked about (puffed in the msm) as the next Prime Minister, it may be that, in the Commons as elsewhere, the real British people are being completely sidelined; marginalized. Outbred by the non-whites, as well. White Genocide.

“The Great Replacement”. No mere “conspiracy theory”. It’s happening. Just look around you.

Animal welfare

Even a rotten government does a few things right. Good to see that the Animal Welfare (Sentencing) Bill, a private member’s bill, providing for a max of 5 years’ imprisonment (in place of the present 6 months) has survived its Second Reading in the Commons, with Government support, and is likely to become law by early 2021. https://www.bridportnews.co.uk/news/18815650.chris-loder-inspired-push-animal-welfare-sentencing-bill-pet-dog/

I recall an interview, on British TV in the mid 1970s, with Lindsay, the Mayor of New York in the 1960s and early 1970s, and conducted by either Michael Parkinson or David Frost. Lindsay said that he had been able to walk around in Manhattan, alone and unmolested (at first), until the atmosphere changed in the early 1970s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lindsay#Mayoralty; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Lindsay.

Apropos of nothing much…

In looking up the Wikipedia entry for John Lindsay (see above), I saw that he attended a very “elite” school in New Hampshire, St. Paul’s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Paul%27s_School_(New_Hampshire). What struck me particularly was the amount of land that the school has: 2,000 acres! Also, 118 teaching staff, yet only 539 students. Eat your heart out, Eton, Harrow and Winchester! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Paul%27s_School_(New_Hampshire)#Facilities.

Also, why does BBC Radio 4 Today Programme give this Ferguson charlatan airtime, and thus spurious credibility?

Amazing.

The toytown police state (again)

Once again, the political pygmies of 2020 Britain are playing at being petty tyrants, issuing decrees and ordering people about (or pretending to). Look at this idiot!

“Welsh supermarkets have been ordered to only sell ‘essential goods’ to customers during the country’s 17-day lockdown.

First Minister Mark Drakeford will tell stores they are unable to sell items such as clothes to shoppers, and to prioritise other products deemed to be more important.” [Daily Mail]

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8869455/Welsh-supermarkets-ordered-sell-essential-goods-countrys-17-day-lockdown.html

I have to admit that I had never heard of Mark Drakeford. The sort of person who, before devolution, would have been something like a county councillor, rather than “First Minister” of the Welsh “Government”.

This is him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Drakeford. Teacher, probation officer, social worker, university lecturer.

When I read about some silly little person like this laying down the law (probably invalid law at that), I am torn between laughing and being infuriated.

In fact, Wales is a bit of a rotten borough. I just saw that the present Police and Crime Commissioner (and what a stupid idea this “PCC” nonsense is anyway) is one Alun Michael, a Labour Party drone and a former, repeated, and proven, expenses cheat! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alun_Michael#Parliamentary_expenses_claims.

Great. The Police and Crime Commissioner for Wales is himself little better than a fraudster…

Reverting to the ridiculous Drakeford (purported) decree, what possible use can it be to insist that shops only sell “essential” items? Is the hope that fewer people will bother to go to shops? “Essential” is not even defined. Will we once more have police personnel checking purchases? In what little Welsh world will that prevent “Coronavirus” infection? It’s just mad.

So when the Welsh economy completely collapses, which cannot be far away anyway after the stupid 6-month “lockdown” (shutdown) imposed by Boris-idiot, who will pick up the pieces financially? The English taxpayer?

Thing is, you give silly little people like this Mark Drakeford real powers, and then they cannot exercise them usefully or intelligently. They have neither the background nor the common sense and intelligence. “Decrees” are made which are senseless.

Look at his other recent “decrees”, e.g. that people cannot travel from some parts of England to Wales. How is that even enforceable? It isn’t…

This whole “virus” panic in the UK and by that I mean the Boris-idiot “laws”, “rules”, and “advice” (and the way in which the police have acted as a poundland KGB militia) has damaged the rule of law, possibly permanently. You have a government that believes in power and only power, untrammeled by law. What do they think will be done to them should they ever be in the power of a dictator?

Take a look at the recent tweets of, for example, John Rentoul. They can see that “Boris” is not only incompetent (so was David Cameron-Levita, so was Theresa May) but looks it. Answer?

The infantile and disordered

https://www.spiked-online.com/2020/10/20/the-sky-history-controversy-shows-how-pathetic-anti-fascists-have-become/

I must have missed that particular storm in a Twitter teacup. Typical, though. The self-described “Left” (a term which, like “Right”, I never use), or (pseudo-) “socialist” element has nohing much to say.

In 1989, socialism died, all over the world. That was as true of British socialism or social democracy as it was of Soviet socialism (which just expired and evaporated within a couple of years, being replaced by “oligarchic” kleptocracy), and Chinese socialism (which kept the names and forms of socialism while transforming into complete cut-throat capitalism under overall State supervision).

In Britain, the Labour Party changed from a social-democratic party with socialist roots and pretensions into a basically finance-capitalist party with social-democratic pretensions. Clause 4 (nationalization) was ditched; within a few years it was uncontroversial for the half-Jew Mandelson, Tony Blair’s most important ally, to say that he was “intensely relaxed about people getting filthy rich“. Imagine Clement Attlee, Harold Wilson or, say, James Callaghan saying that (in public)!

As Labour became a non-socialist party in the 1990s, the more socialist-oriented element in it became infected more and more with the peripheral politics of identity.

As a frequent browser in Collet’s London Bookshop in Charing Cross Road in 1976 (aged 19), I saw that they had shelves devoted to books and magazines about “sexual politics” and the like, as well as what became known as “multiculturalism”. I was social-national even then, and thought that those areas were, even in the context of Marxist/post-Marxist ideology, sideshows at best. I was right then, but wrong down the line, because it was exactly that sort of stuff that eventually took over, not the Labour Party as such, but the more “socialist”-leaning element within it.

What are the concerns of those “socialists” on, say, Twitter? “Refugees” (most of whom are bogus anyway); “LGBT” etc; supporting all the “Covid-19” nonsense (facemasks, lockdowns etc); “black lives matter”. After all those, maybe poverty too, but the real old-style socialists focussed on relief of poverty as of prime importance, together with the whole socio-economic pattern of society. Also, those old-style activists had a idea of how to achieve their objectives. The post-Marxists have exchanged that for what amounts to a virtue-signalling whine.

The Twitterati who think themselves “socialist” (there are exceptions), especially the “antifa” element and the Jew-Zionists, find their greatest pleasure and victory when someone with whom they disagree (usually unthinkingly) is expelled from Twitter. Most interesting tweeters (like me, if I immodestly say so) are now gone from increasingly dull Twitter.

Also, the Twitterati are often found complacently reciting that xyz (like me) have rightly been expelled from Twitter because “Twitter, Facebook, YouTube etc are commercial companies and can expel or deny service to anyone”. Pretty pathetic. A surrender to the marketplace, and a quasi-monopolistic marketplace at that. No thought as to the rights of the citizen qua citizen (eg free speech rights) going beyond mere contractual rights.

One might add that Twitter is the main playground of such people. Not the real world where real events happen and where questions of politics, questions of importance, are decided.

Whining on Twitter (“slacktivism”) becomes the substitute for real political or social action.

You can see all of that in the Corbyn saga of recent years. Corbyn Labour was not without its virtues, though Corbyn was really a surviving example of an old-style socialist surrounded by those new-style pseudo-socialist virtue-signallers; political coelacanth [“Coelacanths were thought to have become extinct in the Late Cretaceous, around 66 million years ago, but were rediscovered in 1938…The coelacanth was long considered a “living fossil““— Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coelacanth].

The result of the obsession with peripheral matters (perhaps the most bizarre and off-piste is re. “transphobia”) has been that Labour itself (and the so-called “Left” in general) has become politically almost irrelevant, despite the Labour Party being the only major “opposition” to a Conservative Party government of surpassing incompetence.

Matters of wide public concern: mass immigration and migration-invasion; education; NHS services; a future for the young; security for the old; the environment; housing; pay and benefits.

There are really only two groups now vying for ideological supremacy under the superficial show of politics: the System of “ZOG”, “NWO” etc, and social nationalism. The so-called “Left”, though vocal, is an irrelevance on the wider stage.

The year 2022, 33 years on from the last “reset” of world politics in and after 1989, will be of prime importance. Large-scale change.

I had not previously heard of this backwoods MP. Seems that he was a teacher, somewhere; where? Only a (brief?) stint as headmaster of an unspecified school in Romania is noted. I suspect that he is yet another chancer and freeloader in the Commons. A Romanian wife who is a doctor in Bassetlaw, wherever that is (actually, Nottinghamshire). A prime candidate for my “Deadhead MPs” series. Watch this space.

Perhaps Clarke-Smith might think about how real pay and the real level of State benefits have declined over the years, placing many —even many who are in full-time work— in poverty. He himself has presumably been able to live off his wife’s earnings (at least to a large extent) for years.

The idea that evil hypocrites such as Dunce Duncan Smith, the jew “lord” Freud, Esther McVey and Therese Coffey want to “help” people is naive, to say the least.

The facemask zealots all pretend to be following The Science, but in reality their zealotry goes far deeper and has nothing to do with science, and everything to do with some strange wish to conform.

Coronavirus nation

The contrived “virus” situation has not only exposed how empty of content our society now is, and its institutions especially (as I blogged months ago) but also has led to where we are now, a kind of shadow society. The virus apparently makes many lose their senses of taste and smell, and that is, metaphorically, what has happened socially and politically. Look at the House of Commons.

We have a government of clowns who, under previously normal conditions, would not even have been taken seriously by their own party, let alone the public. They have no credibility, no real ideology or even ideas. They are (as again blogged about many times) led by a part-Jew public entertainer whose jokes are now falling very flat.

The UK has a binary political system, which means, inter alia, that if the official Opposition is, like the Government, just a collective puppet of the Jewish lobby, there is no real opposition to Government policy and behaviour.

The Labour Party simply “opposes” Boris-idiot by saying “we agree with most of what you do, but you should do more of the same, and harder, and should have done it earlier; and borrowed more money to soften the blows...”

Yes, we are always hearing how small the difference is between the DNA of, say, a Northern European and the DNA of a black African. A small fraction of 1%. But it is that small difference that means everything. “In your nothing, I hope to find my everything” [Goethe, Faust]. Some primates, such as chimpanzees, have 96% of the same DNA as a human being, some are even said to have 98% or 99%. Even a banana has 60% of “our” DNA, it seems.

Indeed. The oddest thing is that, in the UK and elsewhere (eg USA), public horror (arguably exaggerated) re. underage sex activity goes together with the actual encouragement of such activity in the West since the 1960s. Hollywood, “British” TV, whatever. The msm generally. There are secret groups, embedded in the political and msm milieux, that are constantly pushing to expand the boundaries of what is acceptable to the public, and to blur clear lines of what is “normal” behaviour. The Old Testament story of Sodom and Gomorrah is being reprised in a complex and sophisicated way. I have little doubt that things will get worse in this respect.

Our society is very sick, in some ways.

This whole “licence fee” (tax) nonsense must end now. The idea that a “licence fee” guarantees BBC independence from the State is a bad joke, looking at how spineless the BBC is in questioning Government policy.

One of the dangers of the present time is that there are so many unworthy and in fact evil people in lucrative, applauded, influential and/or powerful positions that one is tempted to agree with the young Karl Marx (who was an actual Satanist), and who wrote that “everything in existence is worthy of being destroyed” (incidentally, that fact about the young Karl Marx was uncovered by research done in the 1920s by the Apostolic Nuncio to Germany, Pacelli, who later became Pope Pius XII).

Rifkind. Coren. How many are there in the msm?…

Ah…whatever happened to the “brilliant” Boris Johnson, who for 20 years had been puffed as someone who almost had to become Prime Minister? Nothing, because that “brilliant” Boris Johnson never really existed. That Johnson was a construct, firstly by “Boris” himself (the name is in fact itself not real), and by his father, a part-Jew scribbler and careerist; finally, by a collaborative msm.

What is left is the part-Jew, part-Levantine moneygrubber and narcissist, someone who always deflates to nothing when confronted by reality.

“Boris” was sacked as a trainee journalist for making up stories; the same happened when he was working as a journalist. As editor (of the Spectator) he let others do the work while he floated around like a ping-pong ball on the surface, periodically absenting himself for hours or days in order to take cocaine and/or screw Petronella Wyatt and others.

“Boris” also found himself confronted by reality as MP (sacked from Government by his superiors), Mayor of London (failed projects included the useless water-cannon, the abandoned Garden Bridge, buses, the expensive and almost unused Thames cable-car, and “Boris Island); also as Foreign Secretary (abject failure) and now as PM, in which exalted rank he has run the UK into the ground.

“Boris” was always the recipient of unmerited preferment and privilege.

“Boris” is already held in contempt even by his own party. Credible stories emerge that he will go in early-mid 2021. As always, it is “all about him”, how he wants more money from scribbling articles and books, and yet more via the making of after-dinner speeches. He wants to make, and may make, a million a year. He should be shot, or at least compelled to labour for a loaf of rye bread per day, and not rewarded for his crimes (as he probably will be), but this world is short on justice.

In the 1930s, most Brits living in Germany wanted a third way as against both Sovietism (Stalinism) and finance-capitalism (Anglo-Americanism). These days, Brits in Germany (Berlin, mostly) tend to be multikulti zealots, facemask zealots, EU zealots etc. Natural serfs.

but nowhere does Hitchens identify Rifkind as a Jew-Zionist.

The essence of both National Socialism and social nationalism.

The history of the Roman Catholic Church is intimately bound up with our Western civilization. Some of its achievements have been stellar; some of its sins huge. However, the central fact is that the institution is now nearing the end of its time.

The behaviour of the modern Chinese (as a group, and China as a state) is often ghastly and backward. The treatment of the peoples of Western China is one example. However, the comment about the falling European birth-rate, and so the proportion of Europeans in the world, is simple fact. We are being outbred. We need to take care of that in several ways.

and even more true of what I myself say…

It never was. Part-Jew, part-Levantine, a shallow public entertainer.

I have had enough. Enough of the nonsense. Enough of the “clap for the State” nonsense. Enough of the busybodies and snitches. Enough of the facemask nonsense. Enough of the (not fully observed anyway) “social distancing” and “Rule of Six” nonsense. Enough of a nonsense government and a part-Jew, part-Levantine “Prime Minister” who has no idea how to properly fulfil his role.

I disagree anyway with the “lockdown(s)”, with the shutting down of the economy and society, and one can see that countries such as Sweden have everything working, and a lower death rate (per 1,000) than the UK.

In the end, our society has to bite the bullet. It seems that the young are scarcely affected, and that even the middle-aged are only somewhat affected. In addition, English and other real British (i.e. white) people are affected less than non-white (including Jews).

I myself am in at least one vulnerable group, at age 64, but say that the time has come to junk all the nonsense of the past 8+ months and revive the society and economy.

It is time to say “Enough!” and open everything up. Let the chips fall where they may.

19 October 2020

Happened to hear Lord “Gus” O’Donnell, former head of the Civil Service, on BBC Radio 4 PM, a show that became so pathetic and self-indulgent over the years that I stopped listening (in common with, I suspect, almost all of its one-time audience).

Switching over from Radio 3, I heard O’Donnell say something quite striking: churches, said he, had become “community hubs”, along with other places. He added that, instead of being the House of God, they were now the House of Good, by which he meant communitarian good works and societal cohesion.

It could be argued that the two are almost synonymous. “God, or whatever means the Good...”, as Louis MacNeice wrote in one of his poems, Meeting Point [https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/91396/meeting-point]. Another analogous substitution might be “Common Era” instead of Anno Domini, along with “Before Common Era”, BCE, instead of Before Christ (B.C.).

Having said that, and however good the motives for turning churches into combination coffee shops, cafes, souvenir shops, therapy centres, food bank outlets and concert halls (or village halls), the inevitable result of all the social and cultural noise is that a certain spiritual peace is lost. To put it in a more sensationalist way, God is squeezed out, though squeezed out, of course, for the best of motives…

I wonder whether Lord O’Donnell was ever connected with Common Purpose? I should not be surprised.

Some tweets seen this evening

Chris Bryant, one of the most obviously “dodgy” MPs in the Westminster monkeyhouse: pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby, very tied up with Common Purpose too. An expenses cheat. Sleazy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Bryant; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Bryant#Expenses_claims_scandal; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Bryant#Personal_life.

Not that his radio interlocutor above has the moral high ground, as a scribbler for the Sun “newspaper”…

The “lockdown” and facemask nonsense is largely being driven by people (MPs and others) getting generous pay and expenses from public sources, and who are unaffected by the trashing of the economy.

Remember remember the 5th of November,

Gunpowder, treason and plot,

Life is short but memory long,

And traitors deserve to be shot!

Unexpected.

Completely expected. The troupe of clowns pretending to be “our” government will do whatever they want to do, lie about it, weasel about it, and laugh at the people they pretend to govern.

The hypocrisy is ingrained. I have only ever seen one episode of The Simpsons, when I lived in New Jersey in the very early 1990s. I cannot recall the storyline, but the show ended with Bart Simpson sitting down and starting “…so, kids, now you know that war is always wrong...” before reconsidering…”oh…except the war against Saddam Hussein…oh, and the Second World War… and the First World War, and of course the War of Independence, and…” You get the idea.

Human beings are often hypocritical, and rarely totally congruent. The hypocrisy and incongruity rises to 99%+ in politicians of the type we have, those Adolf Hitler called “dirty democratic politicians”, though the UK versions are rarely even “democratic” in any real sense.

More “cultural enrichment”…

Coronavirus ghost towns

More accurately, government-created ghost towns. This madness is now totally out of control. Hardly anyone under 40 is at real risk of both becoming infected and suffering serious effects, yet the whole country is still more or less shut down.

In fact, even most people over 40, but under 70, are only at low risk.

When Alison Chabloz started getting seriously persecuted by the pack of Jews known as the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, manipulating compliant or suborned police, a few years ago, Martin Bashir [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Bashir], then recently-appointed BBC Religious Affairs Correspondent, was observed creeping around the garden of the house in the Derbyshire Peak District belonging to Alison Chabloz’s aged parents. In fact, “creep” seems to be the best description of the bastard.

I would define (((the problem))) more directly…

https://twitter.com/MarkACollett/status/1318077392330674177?s=20

True, but ditch the outdated and almost meaningless “Right”/”Left” stuff.

Yes. Putting the clocks back and forward is one of those things that are implemented for doubtful good reasons, but then get stuck and carry on for years, or decades, because society is too lazy to bin them. Other examples would include dog licences, radio licences and having only a ludicrously small amount of foreign currency purchaseable in person, the amount being written in your passport! All of the foregoing were in existence, though the licences were mostly ignored, until Mrs. Thatcher junked them in or about 1980.

We sometimes think that societal progress or change is automatic, when in fact, often, things do have to be actually disposed of actively.

Which will be a perfect get-out for Boris-idiot and SAGE (“DUMB”— Department Under Matt and Boris). “Coronavirus flaring up? Oh, it’s because all those dissidents and Covidiots are not complying with our rules…”. Forgetting that France and Spain have had far stricter “lockdowns” etc and yet have a far worse death rate per 100,000 from (with) “the virus” than has the UK.

The “virus” in the UK peaked in early April, and has been falling ever since, but only in the past couple of months has the population been forced to wear facemasks…Absurd. They make no difference at all.

Latest conspiracy theory

What follows is the latest conspiracy theory about “the virus”. I know that it is the very latest, because I have just made it up. I have no evidence at all for it. Not that it might not just be true…

My instant theory is that an international conspiracy has decided to reduce both the world population and world economic activity by releasing a virus which, like multiple independently-targeted re-entry vehicles (MIRVs), will take multiple forms, killing some people, creating long-term infertility in others, and mutating to return in ever more deadly forms for years. Meanwhile, those behind the facade of national governments will keep both political and economic control, repressing dissent, preventing mass gatherings and even small conclaves.

Well, I make no claim as to the accuracy of the foregoing, but it may be correct all the same…

Paris atrocity

I was made aware of the latest Islamist atrocity in Paris only late yesterday, and blogged briefly about it to the effect that it was a terrible crime; it is not an excuse, nor any mitigation, that the murdered schoolteacher seems to have shown his pupils caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed.

I have no doubt that, had he shown the children some cartoons about the “holocaust” or some of the proven fakery thereof, he would have been dismissed, and quite likely also prosecuted (though the Jews would probably not have actually killed him).

The cartoons below make the point:

Today, Rothschilds NWO/ZOG puppet Macron was on TV talking about the atrocity, and paying lip service to “free speech”, which he claimed as one of the foundation stones of the French republic. Oh really? When “holocaust” “denial” (historical revision or revisionism) is actually a crime in France?

Tell that (about free speech) to the “antisemitic” African entertainer, Dieudonne [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dieudonn%C3%A9_M%27bala_M%27bala ; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dieudonn%C3%A9_M%27bala_M%27bala#Court_actions], imprisoned for poking fun at “holocaust” lies and fakes; or Alison Chabloz, currently banned from entering France for 40 years(!) for having sung satirical songs exposing Jew-Zionist behaviour and “holocaust” fakes.

[Alison Chabloz]

Hypocrisy rules…Likewise Charlie Hebdo magazine rarely satirizes the powerful Jew-Zionist lobby in France, but only the Muslims.

“White genocide”. There is more than one way of killing a race and people. One way is to breed only black, brown, Oriental, or mixed-race children…

I do not suppose that you have to be Jewish or part-Jew to get a big job at the BBC, but it often seems to help…

Turkey has, since the 1920s, stabilized the geopolitical situation on the southern flank of Eurasia. If Turkey is no longer stable (as started to be the case several years ago), then the powerful forces around it (Russia, NATO, Islamism, Israel, mainly) come into direct conflict. It may be that NATO is trying to keep Erdogan at least partly onside, by appeasing him.

Meanwhile, Jewish lobby puppet and —no doubt very temporary— Labour Party leader, Keir Starmer, is reduced to screeching “make it more severe! Lockdown now, nationwide! Collapse the economy now!“

This whole “lockdown”/facemasks/etc thing becomes more ludicrous day by day, with the government of clowns saying that it may be necessary to place even different streets in the same area under different “lockdown” or “tier” conditions. I wonder at what point people generally will wake up and just say “screw this“…

If the WW2 “gas chambers” were “the hoax of the 20th Century”, then it is beginning to look as though “Covid-19” Coronavirus is becoming the hoax of the 21st. Not that I “deny” the existence of “Covid-19”. It exists all right, which is more than can be said of the fabled “gas chambers”; where I depart from the official narrative is when it is said that whole countries have to shut down, their populations forced into muzzles and/or house arrest, all because of a virus which so far has killed (even on official figures) only 1 person in every 8,000 people in the world.

That is true, but a climbdown by the UK now would mean that “Brexit” becomes “BRINO”, “Brexit In Name Only”. Ah…

Once again, the Twitterati, the Labour Party, the biens-pensants, have nothing to say except (in effect) “support the Conservative Party government” and (metaphorically) “clap for the public services”…

On the other hand, if huge numbers of businesses and individuals continue to get survival payouts from State funds, will the rest of the economy be vibrant enough to support that for long? I doubt it.

Yes. When the “virus” fear propaganda started, I too was taken in, for a week or so. I’m not that easily taken in (and am aware re. the Great Reset, the Great Replacement, NWO, ZOG etc), so cannot blame the mass of people for having believed the nonsense (but please wake up now, people…)

One could compare “the virus” panicdemic to the “reds under the beds” hysteria of the early 1950s. There was a real threat in some limited areas of society (in the USA, the danger was largely centred on Hollywood) but hugely overblown.

I think that the above is substantially correct.

When I travelled widely as a practising barrister (mainly by car when in the UK), before 2009, I noticed how some areas were being given new roads (with very little traffic), even new rail lines. There were also being renewed some of the rail lines closed down in the 1960s, such as the “Varsity line” between Oxford and Cambridge: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varsity_Line.

“In 1987, the section between Oxford and Bicester was reopened, followed in 2015 by a connection to the Chiltern Main Line at Bicester, enabling Chiltern Railways to operate an Oxford to London passenger service. There are funded plans for the entire line to be re-established by the “mid 2020s” (partly on a new route) under a new name – East West Rail.” [Wikipedia]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_West_Rail

In my view, there is some kind of long term plan to abandon London if necessary, and make the centre of administration and government somewhere in the central/Eastern part of England, maybe in that Bucks/Beds/Cambs area.

“Lockdowns” and other nonsense

“British voters do not trust Boris Johnson and his health secretary Matt Hancock to beat coronavirus, according to a new survey – and less than a quarter (22 per cent) think it would be reasonable for ministers to expect them to keep obeying restrictions on their social and economic lives beyond the spring.” [The Independent]

The whole thing has become ludicrous. There again, if your government is just a pack of clowns headed by a part-Jew public entertainer, this is the chaos and nonsense you should expect…

and…
