What Happened When This Italian Province Invested in Babies.

The area around Bolzano has a thick network of family support provided by the government. That means a steady birthrate in a country facing a demographic plunge.”

[New York Times]

I noted the plunge in Europe’s birthrate on the blog a few days ago, and have done so previously. Maybe that plunge is not inexorable.

The sine qua non is European rule over not only Europe itself, and the Russophone parts of Asia, but also over parts of the rest of Asia, all of Africa, and over most other significant areas of the world.

Life in Britain is worse than it was 30 years ago“? That is not even a question…

Zelensky’s cabal is trying to provoke Russia into a massive “Israeli”-style retaliation, in the hope that that would bring NATO into the war as a full participant. In fact, were that to happen, it would be a short step to a Third World War.

All the same, I expect an intensification of Russian attacks on strategic infrastructure: electricity generation and supply, communications, railways, roads.

If, or rather when, the Labour Party forms a government in the UK, presumably later this year, it will be an “elected” (by default) dictatorship entirely ruled by Israel and the UK Jewish lobby.

Britain should do the same— shut down pro-Israel, pro-Jewish-lobby mass media outlets.

If he ever returns here, deport him— and all of his compatriots.

Because “a certain group that cannot be mentioned” owns or influences those tabloid and other newspapers; the influence comes from ownership, from greenmail such as the power to withhold advertising revenue and, more directly, from the number of Jews employed in the UK press as journalists, editors etc.

https://news.sky.com/author/sean-bell-894. A former Air vice-Marshal since involved in making money by appearing on Sky TV etc, and selling or renting out properties. Almost certainly a freemason, and plainly pro-Israel, as well as very anti-Russian (he was giving a very poor analysis of the Ukraine war all through 2023 on Sky News).

Sky News is of course part of the worldwide News Corp operation started by 100% pro-Israel ancient cuckold, Rupert Murdoch.

Well, in view of my recent free speech trial, I suppose that I should not add comment. So much for the “free world”…

They do that in Turkey as well. I remember that happening when I was living temporarily in the Fethiye area on the Turquoise Coast in 2001.

I see the “Reform UK” protest voters as expressing a rage against an anti-British, anti-white milieu in politics, the msm, the law, and much of academia. Of course, Reform UK itself is “controlled opposition”, there to channel that rage and control it, but the rage itself is real enough.

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has prepared an initiative to transfer control of the US-led Military Assistance Contact Group to Ukraine (Ramstein) to the alliance, Bloomberg reports, citing sources.

Financial Times (FT) interlocutors explained that in this way Stoltenberg wants to protect Ukraine from political changes if Donald Trump wins the American elections.

As Bloomberg notes, the leadership of NATO Supreme Commander Christopher Cavoli’s contact group will protect the structure from political changes that may occur after the November US presidential elections.

Stoltenberg will formally put forward the proposal at a meeting of NATO foreign ministers in Brussels on April 3 and 4. According to Bloomberg, Jens Stoltenberg is also proposing to create an allied contribution fund of $100 billion, which will be allocated to Ukraine over five years. According to the agency, the NATO Secretary General is urging the allies to sign a document on the creation of a structure at the alliance summit.

Diary Blog, 31 March 2024, with thoughts about Europe’s falling birth-rate

Morning music

[Tatiana Yablonskaya, Morning]

Talking point

As noted on yesterday’s blog, what you get with Matthew Parris is the logical but spiritually-empty argument of the culturally-unattached, atheistic, metro-affluent gay, which Parris is.

If you had to characterize Matthew Parris symbolically, it would be a minimalist painting of an empty room. Something like this:

Very logical, very clear, but not very comfortable or pleasant.

Parris is not always wrong in what he writes, but often is, as in his assisted-dying comment.

Having said that, the ageing of the population is a challenge. We see that the birth-rate in Europe and across Eurasia is dropping to, has already dropped to, below replacement level.

The birth-rate is falling in the European-populated countries (my main concern), but also in almost every other part of the world, except Africa and a few parts of the Middle East, Central Asia and South Asia.

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

The facile, pro-immigration argument is that “Europe is not having enough children to continue its life and economy— bring in immigrants from… [wherever, but Africa and parts of Asia are usually mentioned]”.

That is like saying “the pilot and co-pilot have both had fatal heart attacks— get the cabin crew to fly the plane.” It just does not work, and cannot work.

It may be that via a concatenation of circumstances, the European peoples will quite soon have to start again, to build a new foundation for social and economic life.

It comes to mind that the ultimate reason for the falling birth-rate almost worldwide may be because so many human spirits were, in the past century or more, rushing into incarnation in order to experience the high-water mark of the industrial culture of the 20th/21st centuries. That rush is now at an end. The fact that it is mainly the Africans who are still being born in large numbers may reflect the fact (if it is a fact) that they were last in incarnation very long ago. Speculative, admittedly.

More tweets

No wonder, then, that the new breed of “Labour” political drones and freeloaders think first of all about how to increase their own physical security. They are afraid of the people they claim to represent. Rachel Reeves. Liz Kendall. Others. All the Labour Friends of Israel MPs.

Good point. Matthew Parris: useless as a Foreign Office trainee, useless as a Conservative Party office bod, useless as Mrs Thatcher’s correspondence secretary, useless as an MP…

I have had the misfortune to meet many men within the prison system, like the suspected Beckenham attacker, Rakeem Thomas. Young black or ethnic men who have no respect for British values, the police, or white people in general, especially women. They do not fear arrest or prison. While in prison, many continue their criminal activities by selling smuggled drugs, particularly spice.

These men pose a threat to our society, and in London, Mayor Sadiq Khan, a weak and ineffectual man, allows them to wreak havoc, destroying lives and terrorising communities. In 2018, he wanted to reduce stop and search measures. David Lammy often criticises this approach as disproportionately targeting black people, despite higher rates of violent crime committed by Afro-Caribbean and other ethnic groups in London.

Rakeem Thomas pulled a Rambo-style knife on a ticket inspector in December last year, was sentenced to 6 months, and was back on the streets only 12 weeks later. Did he learn? Did the system work for him? Was probation effective in monitoring and protecting those around him? No, shortly after his release, he is arrested for allegedly trying to kill someone. What did they do, ask him the time or look at him in the wrong way?

There are hundreds like him are in prison, awaiting release to resume their destructive behaviour.

Hundreds more free and prowling our streets. Labour proposes leniency for such individuals, avoiding even basic searches. Having lived amongst these people, I can tell you that they are vile, ruthless and dangerous individuals. They are beyond rehabilitation and should be locked up for life. Yet, under Labour’s policies, they seem to be heading, unchecked and protected, to a town near you.

The United Kingdom is turning into a Ununited Hell!

That is why the old South Africa had “pass laws”, to stop what they called “skollies” from wandering around and committing crimes and trouble generally. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pass_law.

Iain Duncan Smith says if we vote for Reform, it’s like giving Labour a big win. I like IDS, but he’s telling us something we already know.

The truth is, the Conservatives have left us no choice. They didn’t fight for us or Brexit. They barely got us through COVID in one piece and just gave up on everything we fought for. They should have replaced Sunak with someone who’d really battle for our country. Now, we’re stuck.

If we vote for Reform, it helps Labour destroy Brexit and the country. But staying with the Tories feels like they’ve already given up, and with the rabble we have running it now, we won’t see the UK we all want anyway.

This country is falling apart, the streets are like the wild west, and it’s open season for illegals to come here and bleed the country dry and commit the most horrific crimes.

We know that under Labour, this is just going to get worse; they will pander to them and welcome them with open arms. You may as well burn every Union Jack because the country will be finished. Starmer may be the leader but the hard Left are waiting in the wings, ready to take over.

So, what do we do? It’s a horrible feeling, an unbelievable nightmare that seems absurd given the majority that Boris won. Yes, a vote for Reform is a vote for hope and what we believe in, but it’s giving us Labour.

They cannot win, the Tories, in the state they are in, cannot win. WE cannot win, whatever we do. We will be stuck with a huge majority Labour government for 10-15 years, the UK won’t survive the absurd wokery, anti Britishness and open arms to the masses.

What kind of hell are we subjecting our children and grandchildren to? The simple matter is the Tories have let us down, and now it seems like our Brexit dreams are just slipping away because they didn’t stand strong when it mattered.

There’s still time; there could be a plot twist coming just around the corner, but it will need the true right of the Conservatives to look themselves in the mirror and remember the people of the United Kingdom, who and what we are, what we fought for, and what we expected of them. It will need a handful of actual patriots to stand tall and reunite the whole right of UK politics before it’s too late. If that doesn’t happen, then Brexit and all the freedoms and hope we fought for are dead, regardless of who we vote for. How did they let this happen to our once beautiful country?

Well, I agree with much of that. Not all. For one thing, Dunce Duncan Smith should be put on trial and receive the just measure of his deeds. Also, Starmer is just a puppet of the Israel lobby; at best useless, at worst a soon-to-be “elected” tyrant.

I now see quite a few tweets from people whose guess is closer to my own, i.e. as few as 50 MPS.

I doubt that most of that relates to the Gaza slaughter as such; probably more to do with the high Israeli (Jewish) losses in the field, and the fact that much of the world now thoroughly despises Israel and its population. That, and the fact that, after nearly six months, the Israelis have still not achieved anything that looks like “victory”, despite their overwhelming firepower, their devastation of urban and residential areas, and the death toll visited upon tens of thousands of Gazan civilians.

The population of the Gaza Strip has lost more than 97% of its daily average water consumption, which previously did not meet the WHO recommended minimum. Now the average resident of the Gaza Strip no longer consumes 3 liters of water per day, as it was in November last year, but just under a liter, which is more than 7 times lower.”

The Kiev regime can mount attacks on bridges, railway lines, or even concert venues (using proxy terrorists) but, on the other side, Russian forces are destroying what is left of the Ukraine’s electricity generation and supply system, as well as slowly but surely grinding down the ever more sparse Kiev-regime forces in the field.

Russian forces continue to advance on the Ukrainian battlefield despite muddy roads , former CIA analyst Larry Johnson said in an interview with the YouTube channel “Dialogue Works”.

If you look at what is happening right now, I think the offensive has already started. They are making progress, he said. Russian forces continue offensive operations, even despite muddy roads, while Western tanks in Ukraine get stuck in the mud. Ukrainian troops are constantly withdrawing, Johnson concluded.

Hundreds of kilometers of fortifications and several defense rings were built around Kyiv.

“In a year this is about 1000 km of fortifications, three rings of defense of Kyiv. The Chernobyl direction has been greatly strengthened. Long-term concrete fortifications are already being built. We did everything to ensure that there were no options for a sudden enemy entry,” said Ground Forces Commander Alexander Pavlyuk.

If Kiev becomes a bastion, almost impenetrable, the advancing Russian forces may either bypass the region, or simply reduce Kiev by means of air power.

Whatever the outcome of that, it seems clear that the Kiev-regime forces are expecting a large-scale Russian advance in 2024-2025, an advance which they have, and will have, no means of countering.

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13248883/Just-skin-bone-starving-Gaza-toddlers-kept-incubators-human-rights-chief-warns-Israel-guilty-war-crime-cut-food-aid.html

The toddler’s frail, malnourished body scarcely twitched as she lay helplessly in an incubator chamber in the already-decimated Gaza hospital. 

Leila Jeneid, one of countless children who have passed through the doors of Kamal Adwan Hospital, in the north of the Gaza Strip, has suffered as a result of starvation and dehydration. 

In a video clip, Leila can be seen quickly breathing in and out, desperate for a breath of fresh air in one of the 12 remaining hospitals in the besieged enclave. 

The outline of her ribs, along with all her other bones, are visible through her pallid, paper-thin skin, which sits in stark contrast to the blue blanket underneath her that provides little comfort to the toddler, who is not old enough to comprehend the hellish suffering she is undergoing. 

Her jaw is slack as she lies on her back inside the plastic cage of the incubator, barely able to move her arms and legs. 

She can’t keep her eyes open as medics at the hospital, which UN official Andrea De Domenico this week said was receiving ‘about 15 malnourished children a day and is struggling to maintain services,’ run tests to understand how to help her. 

But it’s food, water and proper rest she needs, all things that the whole enclave is desperately in need of, and all things that Israel has been accused of deliberately withholding from civilians in its bitter war against Hamas, which – according to a top UN human rights official – could amount to a war crime.”

[Daily Mail]

Israel, and the Jewish lobby outside Israel, can now shut up about various matters that they claim occurred during the Second World War.

The “usual suspects” constantly promote books, films etc about events and/or invented events that are said to have happened, in any event, over 80 years ago.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13248119/Is-Britains-bitterest-neighbour-dispute-Father-five-jailed-handed-475-000-court-bill-threatening-neighbours-amid-row-position-garden-fence-ordered-sell-420-000-home.html

A father-of-five who was jailed and handed a £475,000 court bill after a dispute with his neighbours has been ordered to sell his home to pay for the huge sum. 

Mark Coates, 56, and wife Louise, 52, have been involved in a ‘bitter, aggressive and violent’ dispute with their neighbours Brian Greenwood, 69, and Janice Turner, 65, after moving in next door in the countryside near Hastings in 2015.

The row arose out of a disagreement over a fence between their homes on a quiet road in Robertsbridge, a court heard. The Coates family wanted to replace the structure with a brick wall but Mrs Taylor argued this would encroach on her land.”

[Daily Mail]

When I was at the Bar, I advised and appeared on several such cases in the County Court, both in London and the provinces. Almost all, in fact all, should have settled long before they got to court, long before any barristers were instructed.

I think that I can say that I, and other counsel in the cases known to me, did our best to achieve reasonable closure, but these are cases (often involving trivial amounts of land) where reason always seems to fly out out of the window.

In many cases, all Counsel, solicitors, and the judge in the matter, understand that the matters in question should settle before enormous costs are racked up but, often, the litigants are effectively willing to risk bringing down ruin on themselves for a chance of gaining a victory over their neighbours (with whom they will have to live —nearby— afterwards, after the case ends, whichever way it goes), unless one party sells up and moves (in which event…well, you get my point).

If you told someone to remortgage his house, take out equity of £50,000, £100,000 or more, then go to Las Vegas, and stake the entire amount, maybe in one spin, on red or black at the roulette table, the houseowner would call you crazy, but that is, often, exactly what he or she —often a couple— are willing to do in taking to the County Court (in some cases to the High Court) such cases.

I remember one case I had that was about a wedge-shaped piece of land running the length of a North London suburban garden; at one end it was only about an inch or so wide and, at the other, about a foot.

What can one say? Territorial feeling can be very powerful.

Private enterprise —properly regulated for honesty, health and safety, employee rights etc— should run most commerce and industry, but there are exceptions, among which are the main structures of the economy providing services to the whole people: water supply, large-scale energy, electricity generation and supply, roads, railways.

Very true. As for me [b.1956], my memories of even the late 1950s are few, but those of the 1960s, and up to the present year, are many. Speaking very broadly, I should say that the dividing line between the UK of 2024 and an earlier and different UK lies, arguably, somewhen between the Thatcher election victory of 1979 and the fall of socialism in or about 1989. Maybe 1979 as far as the UK is concerned, domestically. Too much to cover here in a few paragraphs, though.

American urban planning history

Interesting. Britain’s town planning problems and history differ from the above American examples, in part, though there are also similarities.

Town planning is very important, as is architecture, and not forgetting the trees, bushes, creepers, and flowers that elevate all of that.

“Reform UK” is just more “controlled opposition”, of course, and pro-Israel controlled opposition at that; still, its existence moves the “Overton window”, and that may be significant.

To call that a zoo would be unkind to zoos, and to the inherent grace and charm of most animals.

Not bad…

Group psychopathy.

Seems that H.M. Land Registry (or its ad agency) does not know the difference between “principle” and “principal“. On that basis, I am sceptical about anything they say they will do; it is not trivial, but a matter of both basic education and checking what is put before the public.

So much for the “military experts”, many of which (as in the case of the reporter David Axe) turn out to be not very expert at all: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Axe.

People of that sort write their rubbish for (in his case) Forbes magazine, the Daily Telegraph etc, and people believe it implicitly because it is in (albeit wrongfully) “trusted” publications, yet much of the content is unreliable. Read Axe’s Wikipedia entry. Not an ex-officer, not a military historian as such, but a writer of fiction primarily, at least until recently. His reporting on military matters has been patchy; refer to the Wikipedia entry.

There are many scribblers of that sort. He is far from being the only defaulter.

Of course, in relation to the Ukraine war, a significant factor in reportage is that most Western msm outlets are openly biased to an extent not seen since the 1940s. Anything seen in the msm relating to Ukraine, Russia, Putin etc has to be taken with a pinch of salt.

Future archaeologists may find such tanks buried under a hundred feet of chernozem, and wonder what they were.

Late tweets

Jew-Zionist argues that the numbers of civilian and other dead and wounded in Gaza are not accurate and may be, at least in part, invented.

I dare say, though, that the same Jew-Zionist (and many another) thinks that any attempt to critically examine the numbers involved, or the nature and extent, of the so-called “holocaust” of WW2, is not only “antisemitic” but evil…

Green. Some look about 14 or 15. Obviously untrained, looking at their posture, body language etc. God help them if they are not taught how to stay alive in the field.

Ukraine (Kiev regime) cannot win this war, or even keep the front stable. Russia cannot lose, and will not lose.

[“The scene of the terrorist attack at the Crocus City Concert Hall in the Red Mountain District of Moscow”]

I have seen various claims as to who might have done this, as to who was behind it all, and as to the reason or reasons. No conclusion as yet.

The U.S, Embassy in Moscow was warning American expats about a possible terror attack for several days. From where did that come? From general “chatter” monitored or intercepted?

Tenuous. Many people, including famous political figures, move around the world all the time, “like billiard balls“, as a Russian peasant on a river steamer once remarked to Gorky about the “gentry” [see: Literary Portraits, by Gorky, 1935, trs. Ivy Litvinov].

I cannot see the Kiev regime being behind this, except as the most dangerous game move (provoking Putin into doing something so harsh that it might then bring NATO into the Ukraine war directly). Surely even the Kiev regime would not do something so crazy?

Trump, if re-elected, will cut off funding, arms and ammunition supplies, and intelligence aid to the Zelensky dictatorship; the war in Ukraine will then grind to a halt within weeks.

The MP who tweeted or retweeted that BBC report did not address the fact that the pro-Israel bloc in the UK and other states, the core of which is the Jewish Zionist population in each state, seems to be fairly solidly behind the Israeli military and air attack “operation” in Gaza.

In relation to no.4 above, it is unfortunate that the learned district judge at my free speech trial (in November 2023) seemed unaware of or (much more likely) not in agreement with, the point(s) made (which have been made many many times previously).

In fact, and in any case, “antisemitism”, as such, is not illegal in this country; neither is so-called “holocaust” “denial”. That much has been made clear in numerous court cases though, as far as I am aware, not yet at appeal level in the higher courts (Court of Appeal and Supreme Court of the UK).

Actually, the trial judge was fair in his actual conduct of the trial, overall, but Britain these days has come under a kind of low cloud of repression in respect of —shall we say?— “them“…

I feel that a few issues were slightly fudged in the delivered judgment of the learned District Judge at my trial. It is long since I was a barrister in court (2007) but I feel that there was at least one good appeal point in that judgment.

However, I am disinclined to appeal, and then have to go through, at the Crown Court, what would amount to a retrial, rehashing all the nonsense of the “CAA” and CPS already heard, particularly as the sentence eventually handed down by the sentencing judge was relatively light; and also in view of the fact that the sentencing District Judge refused the Prosecution application for a Criminal Behaviour Order to restrict (though not much, really, the Order and Application having been so poorly-drafted) my publication of the blog.

Incidentally, my trial was at the end of last November, so only a week short of 4 months ago. Tempus fugit. Even my sentencing hearing was 9 days ago, but I have already done one day out of the ordered 15 “probation” days (nominally a day, in terms of the sentence format, but actually about an hour in real time).

The blog continues. The blog will continue. Inshallah, as the Arabs say.

Right Wing Labour MPs“, says he, meaning “members of Labour Friends of Israel“: at least three out of the ten Jewish (some of the rest possibly part- or “crypto”). Several of that group of ten wealthy or very wealthy; the rest freeloading, and/or fraudulent, leeches and snakes.

It is now not impossible that, at the upcoming 2024 General Election, the Reform UK party, despite its flaws (from my ideological direction) will run about level with the Con Party; somewhere around 15%-20%. If so, and if Labour can get about 45%, the Con Party might be left with about 25-50 MPs (Labour 500-525; LibDems 25-50; Reform UK 0-5; Green 1-2; SNP 15-30; Plaid Cymru 2-3; others, about 18).

If the Conservative Party declines to somewhere below 50 MPs, it is an open question (bearing in mind the age of its core voters) as to whether it can survive at all in the medium term (2030-2050).

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

While I agree with Nick Griffin [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Griffin] that there is, for social-national people, “no Parliamentary road” in a totally rigged game, it is not impossible for a political party as yet not in existence to play at least some role in a general social-national upsurge. “All roads lead to Rome“, as they say.

The Kiev-regime forces can still fire missiles at cities, but they do not have the soldiers, arms, and ammunition to defeat or even hold the Russian forces on the battlefield.

Twitter/X is now full of idiots saying that Lydon is “wrong“, “gammon“, a “hypocrite” (because his family was Irish—as if that is equivalent to being a Congolese or Afghan…) etc.

All one has to do is remember that active Twitter/X is a very small world (perhaps 1% of the British people, and very atypical, which is why its “woke” apparent majority always gets it wrong politically, from the result of the Brexit Referendum to Trump’s first Presidential election to (you name it).

Amazing that people are somehow surprised at all. The economy was deliberately (and for no good reason) largely shut down for two years, and by Government decree, during which time millions of people were paid to stay home watching TV, or drinking, or paid to work (at well below peak capacity) from home.

At the same time, and over recent years, half a million to a million useless parasites per year, from all over the world, have been imported to the UK as fake “students”, “high-skilled workers” (Indians who can work a computer), “family members”, fake fiances/fiancees etc, and/or allowed to stay having come here illegally on small boats. Most of them supported entirely from Government funds.

That is in addition to vast sums wasted otherwise during the panicdemic/scamdemic: “test and trace”, “PPE” etc.

Britain continues to go down, both economically and socially. Look at the cities: people sleeping in the streets, which are overrun anyway with unwanted migrant hordes from all over the world. In the countryside, the roads are like those I recall from driving in Bulgaria and Greece etc 20-25 years ago; potholed, poorly-surfaced and, unlike those of Bulgaria or Turkey decades ago, overcrowded.

Then look at the UK’s police (who prefer to snoop on bloggers and Twitter/X accounts rather than do their proper job), or the NHS (which is almost a skeleton service).

Oh, and the Jew Shapps was in Kiev on Thursday, throwing more British taxpayer monies at Zelensky’s brutal, corrupt, and shambolic dictatorship, which is about to be flattened by a Russian steamroller.

From the newspapers

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/07/former-commander-in-chief-zalushnyi-to-become-ukraines-ambassador-to-uk

Ukraine’s former commander in chief, Valerii Zaluzhnyi, is to become the country’s next ambassador to the UK, a month after he was fired by the president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, from his job leading the military.

[The Guardian]

Quite a contrast to Mr. Komissarenko [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serhiy_Komisarenko], the Ukrainian Ambassador to London in the mid-1990s, with whom I travelled one fine day to the highly-guarded Porton Down microbiological laboratories on Salisbury Plain. I blogged about that a couple of times, so anyone interested can find my account on the blog via the search box.

About 29 years ago. How time flies.

It also occurs to me that almost all the Ukrainians, of all social/educational levels, I have met (admittedly not a huge number) have been very full of their own importance; that was certainly the case with Komissarenko.

Memory Lane…

There is no justification for acts of rape. There is no justification for acts of massacre. Those are war crimes. But in certain conditions, expulsion is not a war crime. I don’t think that the expulsions of 1948 were war crimes.[8]” [Benny Morris, Israeli historian, quoted on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benny_Morris].

On that basis, the expulsion of Jews from Germany was not a crime either…

Sam Melia and Laura Towler

[Valkyrie and hero— Laura Towler and Sam Melia]

I am gratified to see that the crowdfunder set up to provide for Laura Towler and her children (one still very young, the other expected to be born within weeks) has now reached, as of time of writing, £57,691.

I would urge anyone reading this to make a donation, even if modest (the minimum is £4), and/or leave a message of support. See https://www.givesendgo.com/sammelia.

The more this couple are given, the greater the morale boost for all in the loose social-national community, and the greater the morale hit taken by both the “antifascist” loonies and the System.

The Jew Shapps is both mendacious and, at the same time, a total clown. Ukraine (Kiev regime) in fact cannot “win” against Russia, even to the extent of “taking back” Crimea, Donetsk and Lugansk oblasts. If there were even a possibility of it, Russia could and probably would flatten all major Ukrainian cities.

Shapps is, of course, also lying when he calls Ukraine “a democracy“. Brutal, shambolic, corrupt; a country where press-gangs kidnap men off the streets for use as army cannon-fodder, and where young girls who are caught stealing lipsticks etc are almost “tarred and feathered”, tied to lamp-posts while people assault and insult them. A country where elections are now banned, as are trade unions and all free speech.

No-one who, like Jukes, calls an actress an “actor” can be taken seriously.

For once, “antifa” cheerleader Stuchbery makes a good point.

Stuchbery often used to tweet very negatively against me, and made common cause with the Jews on Twitter/X who have been trying to attack me for years, so I blogged about him. He did not like it: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/10/23/a-few-words-about-mike-stuchbery/.

Still, credit where due… #MoralHighGround.

(ps. so Stuchbery is getting on, or has already signed on, the German dole,…as I predicted a few years ago. He must have long ago spent his share, if any, of the £12,000 he, thick “antifa”-loving Twitter nuisance Louise Raw, and a dodgy Pakistani solicitor, raised from a thousand mugs, ostensibly “to sue Tommy Robinson“.

No-one (as far as I know) has any idea where the monies disappeared to went. Not a fortune, I know (especially if divided three ways) but, all the same, something like a thousand mugs stumped up £5 or £10 or £20 each in good faith, and were cheated, I think.

My blog post (updated) about Therese Coffey has proven rather popular over the past few years: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/09/16/deadhead-mps-an-occasional-series-the-therese-coffey-story/.

They’re coming to take me away, ha ha!

Another very popular blog post is this one from 2019 (with updates), which examined the linkage between political ideologies (in particular, Jewish Zionism and “antifa” and/or “antifascist” extremism) and mental illness: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/.

The facts are quite striking when you look at them.

I always liked Paris, though it is far from what it was when I was first there in 1970. In recent years, the migration invasion has ruined it, but I should still be sad were the city to be flattened and irradiated by a Russian missile attack. Hopefully, French people will be able to depose or otherwise remove NWO/ZOG agent Macron, and so not have to face directly the nuclear might of Russia.

Former US intelligence officer: Penetrating the Crimean bridge would be a direct act of war against Russia ” German military officers are talking about the use of Taurus missiles against Russia. But not only against Russia, but about the possibility of hitting a civilian target, the Crimean bridge… This is a direct act of war ,” said former US intelligence officer Scott Ritter.

Such actions by Germany, as he says, could drag the USA into a conflict with Russia that would end in a nuclear war. Therefore, the recording of the conversation between the German officers published by the Russian media should become the number one topic in the United States, he emphasizes.”

A mother with Stage 4 cancer claims she was left ‘traumatised’ when High Court enforcement officers (HCEO) evicted her from her house – leaving her outside in the cold until the early hours of the morning.

Video footage shows around ten security and enforcement officers surrounding Sheena Williams’ home in Plains Avenue, Maidstone, Kent, while police officers watch on.

The front door was eventually smashed in by the HCEOs as they forced entry into the home the 60-year-old has lived in for nearly three decades. 

When MailOnline visited the property on Thursday it was boarded up with a security team patrolling outside.   

Sheena, who has metastatic cancer and is confined to a wheelchair, was told the house was being repossessed due to an unpaid tax bill.”

Well, that pretty much puts the cap on the expected “Conservative” Party debacle at the upcoming General Election.

The Con Party is presently running at between 19% and 27% in various opinion polls, with most closer to the lower level. Call it 23%. Of those 23 points, about 20 points consist of the votes of persons over 65. If that demographic were all to vote elsewhere or abstain, the Con Party would be looking at a vote of about 3%, the same sort of level as that typically achieved nationwide by the Greens (2.7% in 2019).

Of course, that will not happen. Many middle-aged and elderly people are people of habit. Many have habitually voted Con for decades. Many say “so if I don’t vote Conservative, for what can I vote?” Brainwashed by the “two main parties” scam.

Having said that, I now think that many people even of advanced years are now angry enough to either abstain or vote elsewhere as a protest.

I do not think it totally impossible now for the Conservative Party to go one or two points below 20% at GE 2024. That would mean only a few Conservative Party MPs left— between 20 and 50, depending on all the other factors in play.

Sam Melia and Laura Towler

[Laura Towler and Sam Melia]

I see that their crowdfunder is now at (as of time of writing) £56,350, a magnificent sum, and still increasing, though more slowly than in the days since Melia’s sentencing hearing (last Friday, 1 March 2024; he was sent down for 2 years, meaning that he will probably not emerge for 12 months, maybe 8 months).

The money will support Laura Towler (who has a young child, with another expected within weeks), will make Melia’s time in prison more tolerable, and will support the couple and their socio-political struggle in 2025 and thereafter.

https://www.givesendgo.com/sammelia

[Update posted on that crowdfunder site:

UPDATE: Firstly, we would like to thank everyone who has donated so generously to this campaign, from the bottom of our hearts we are thankful for such a wonderful outpouring of support.


Secondly, as most of you will now be aware, Sam has been sentenced to two years custodial sentence.

Sam is now incarcerated in a British prison for the ‘crime’ of producing messages the prosecution admitted were ‘totally lawful’. What’s more, under this particular law, the Judge reminded that the jury that the ‘truth was no defence’.

This campaign will remain live for the duration of Sam’s imprisonment and the money raised will support Sam’s pregnant wife Laura and their child Catherine.“]

A modest donation (the minimum amount is only £4) not only supports a young family (and particularly a young mother who is also a staunch social-nationalist and who is imminently expecting a baby while her husband is —unjustly— in prison), but also sticks it to the System.

[Update, same day: the following message is believed to have originated from Laura Towler:

We can now write letters to Sam 

I’ve just spoken to Sam. He is in HMP Leeds. He won’t be staying there for the whole of his sentence but it might take a while for him to move. He’s safe and has made friends. He’s been exercising and reading a lot. He says the worst thing (other than missing us) is that it’s quite boring, although the library is pretty good. He said he would appreciate letters from people to help pass the time. Please don’t get too political or the letter won’t get through.

You can include a stamped address envelope in the first letter if you want him to write back. We can also send him books from their preferred suppliers and also email him. I’ll provide some more information on this shortly.].

That tweet reminded me of a scene from this film:

A rather odd film, which (as has often happened with me when I encounter experimental-style films, like those of Tarkovsky) grew on me when I saw it for the second and third time (on video).

I first saw Alice in the Cities in the early 1980s, at some art-house cinema, as the Americans say, in Hampstead. I was rather reluctantly dragged there by someone I knew, “Major Tillman” (a nom de guerre), and his French girlfriend. His girlfriend apparently later complained that I had “fidgeted...like a little child“. Probably. I do not have a lot of patience with films. I believe that I heard that they eventually married, and now live in Paris.

On seeing the film again, I think twice more, so three times altogether over 20 years, the film grew on me, though I still think it not entirely a success, artistically.

In reality, the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan is being implemented by cabals of evil persons embedded in the Government, Parliament, msm, and Civil Service. They scarcely even try to conceal the agenda any more.

Another talking point

In fact, that person’s opinion is legally incorrect.

“1)A person is guilty of theft if he dishonestly appropriates property belonging to another with the intention of permanently depriving the other of it; and “thief” and “steal” shall be construed accordingly.

[Theft Act 1968, s.1]

It is a long time since I practised at the Bar (2008) and even longer (nearly 30 years, early/mid 1990s) since I did any ordinary criminal law, but my clear recollection is that someone can be convicted of shoplifting (theft) without having left the store. That is because the immediately-relevant component of the offence is that the person has “appropriated the rights of the owner” to the goods taken (with a dishonest intent) and with the intent of permanently depriving the owner.

Assuming that the foodbank basket is (as the one in Waitrose is, and I think at Tesco etc) under the name and control of [name]-Foodbank, then anyone taking food from the shelves, with the appropriate intent, and then “giving” that food to the foodbank by placing it in the foodbank basket or bin has committed the offence, even if the shoplifter does not get any (material) benefit.

In fact, I doubt whether it would be any different even were the foodbank basket or bin to be labelled with the name of the supermarket, because the shoplifter has still “appropriated the rights of the owner” to the goods, and intending to permanently deprive. I have no idea whether that exact situation has ever been tested in court, or in appellate court, though.

The same is true of a shoplifter who places items in a shopping bag or pocket (assuming that the “mental element” of dishonesty is present). It is not necessary, to ground the offence, for the shoplifter to have left the store with the goods taken. This is a common misconception.

It is true that store detectives and the like usually do wait until the suspected shoplifter has exited the building before stopping the suspect. That is because the shoplifter can hardly then claim to have intended to pay (as he or she might be able to say if stopped somewhere inside the store); there have, though, been appeal cases reported (often in the 1970s, the Theft Act 1968 still then being quite new) where convictions were upheld under such circumstances.

It is just easier for store detectives to stop suspects outside.

Sam Melia/Laura Towler crowdfunder

[Sam Melia and his wife, Laura Towler. A hero and a Valkyrie]

Sam Melia has now been imprisoned for 3-4 days. Another 6-12 months to go, probably.

I am glad to see that their crowdfunder, established to help Laura Towler (expected to give birth to their second child soon) and Melia both survive and thrive, and to maintain political struggle both during the coming year and thereafter, has gathered in, as of time and date of writing, some £54,000, and is still increasing rapidly. When I first mentioned the crowdfunder on the blog, last Thursday, it was at nearly £48,000, so well over £1,000 a day has been donated over the past days. Excellent.

If anyone wants to donate and/or leave a message of support, the link is at https://www.givesendgo.com/sammelia.

Minimum donation £4. Show solidarity, stick it to the System, and help what seem to be good people (for sake of clarity, I am personally unacquainted with them, and do not belong to Patriotic Alternative).

Incidentally, this is what the CPS have had to say about the Sam Melia “case”: https://www.cps.gov.uk/cps/news/updated-sentence-far-right-organiser-found-guilty-intent-stir-racial-hatred-through.

It will be noted that the clowns are unable even to spell correctly the name of Oswald Mosley… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oswald_Mosley; https://www.oswaldmosley.com/. The CPS report has Mosley down as “Moseley“, like the Birmingham suburb.

So that is how the CPS and police waste huge amounts of public money, prosecuting a mere sticker-posting campaign as if it were an IRA bomb plot of the 1970s.

If the CPS and (more so) police behaviour is “Stalinist”, then so in the sense of the words of Karl Marx in The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Napoleon: “first time tragedy, second time farce“…

All the same, Sam Melia is still going to sit in prison for 6-12 months, thus punishing his wife and small children. Justice? I think not.

Europe will have nothing to defend itself with, in case it is dragged into a hypothetical conflict, retired Lieutenant General of the Armed Forces of Belgium Mark Thies said, reports the German “Mercury”.

” After a few hours we would have to throw stones. We are already in trouble. Be sure that our opponents, regardless of whether they are in Moscow, Beijing or anywhere else in the world, know about our lack of ammunition, ” Tees said.

According to his opinion, the main problem of the EU is small stocks, which consist of high-quality ammunition, and the process of replacing them and filling the warehouse is a difficult task that requires a lot of time. ” If you order them today, they may take up to seven years to deliver ,” he believes.”

The other problem, not mentioned, and never mentioned by System msm outlets, is that, if things continue for much longer as they have been in European societies, there will be nothing to defend anyway. Nothing worthwhile, at least.

Incidentally, it seems rather amusing to hear a Belgian, of all possible European nationalities, talk about fighting a war.

Belgium has frequently provided the battlefields (in the various 18thC wars, then at Waterloo, at Ypres, in the Ardennes in 1940, and the Ardennes again in the Battle of the Bulge of 1944) but Belgian arms have rarely been distinguished in battle. Belgium is, of course, a very small country, hard to defend: 11,000 square miles, not very much larger than Wales, or Israel, or New Jersey (all around 8,000 square miles).

Having said that, I hope that Reform UK does get plenty of votes at GE 2024, and so helps to stamp on the Conservative Party, even if helping the now-equally-evil Labour Party into “elected dictatorship”; and that a Con Party collapse will in turn help in breaking up the “two main parties” scam that still bamboozles many people.

Diary Blog, 1 March 2024, including analysis of the result of the Rochdale by-election

Morning music

Rochdale by-election result

[Rochdale by-election result, from Wikipedia]

In my pre-polling day look at the by-election, I picked Galloway (“Workers Party”) as the winner; not very difficult under the circumstances— most journalists also thought that Galloway would win, as did the bookmakers.

Galloway scored 39.7%; oddly enough, exactly the same figure as the understandably poor turnout, which was also 39.7%. In other words, Galloway was elected via the votes of about 15% of the whole eligible electorate.

I went wrong on second place. I thought that Azhar Ali, the disowned Labour candidate, would still manage a second place on the basis that he is local, a councillor, a Pakistani Muslim and, until Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer sacked him, the official candidate of the Labour Party.

In fact, Ali scored only 7.7% and a 4th place. I attribute that largely to his sacking, which means that he will not be the Labour candidate in the upcoming 2024 General Election. Also, to the fact that he climbed down and “apologised” to Starmer and the Israel lobby. In a word, he lost face, badly, by doing that. I presume that his 7.7% reflects a personal vote, mainly.

I also thought, though speculatively, that the LibDems might do rather better than they did, based on their previous (though pre-2015) showings in the constituency, and on their perhaps being a magnet for anti-Government white (English) votes in Rochdale. Not so. Seems that the LibDems are very much a spent force outside a few parts of southern England.

The LibDem vote was only 7%.

The poor turnout sank the LibDem cause in Rochdale. It is pretty clear that the Pakistanis voted but the English/white voters mostly did not. The Pakistani population of the constituency is somewhere in the 30%-40% range. Almost all Pakistanis voted (it can be surmised), but few English/white people bothered.

The independent, David Tully [https://www.rochdaleonline.co.uk/news-features/elections/election-pitch/1743/david-tully], who came second at the by-election, must have attracted most of whatever white/English vote there was. His vote, achieved without a party machine or heavy funding, was a creditable 21.3%.

The Conservative Party candidate never had a chance. This government is as unpopular as any has been in the past century or more, and Rochdale has not elected a Conservative since 1955.

Having said that, the attitude of the candidate cannot have helped. He decided to prioritize his holiday over campaigning, jetting off to the sun only a week or so before Polling Day!

That somehow fits with the whole “b*gg*r you, it’s all about me” attitude of the “Conservative” governments of the past seven, perhaps past fourteen, years. In fact, only now do I know anything of Ellison, having looked up his details (he owns a local landscaping company). https://www.rochdaleonline.co.uk/news-features/2/news-headlines/155121/rochdale-byelection-conservative-candidate-paul-ellison-sets-out-his-plan-for-rochdale.

Ellison’s 12% vote (3rd place) is around where my initial thought about the by-election, a couple of weeks ago, put him (I thought maybe 15%), but better than my most recent speculation (a day or two ago, I thought the Con vote might go as low as 5%).

Finally (leaving aside the five candidates who lost their deposit, none scoring higher than 1.7%), there is Reform UK. Oh dear…

As I wrote before the by-election, Reform UK must have been mad to take on Danczuk as its candidate. After all, he was the local Labour MP 2010-2017, who was sacked for various personal behavioural problems, and who then tried to hang on as an Independent, getting an embarrassing 1.8% vote at the 2017 General Election.

The toxic tabloid content of Danczuk’s life 2010-2017 with and around his seriously thick then wife, Karen Danczuk (known as “the selfie queen” for her self-portraits posted online, featuring both her cleavage and her buck teeth), sank him in 2017, and will still be (and obviously was) remembered by the voters of Rochdale.

Danczuk’s 6.3% vote at the by-election is about where I thought he would end up.

In my view, Reform UK has rather too much of the “Mickey Mouse” about it, too much of the “wing and a prayer” “Amateur Night” village show, to be considered a serious party.

The political scientist Matt Goodwin has been pushing the idea that Reform UK might overtake the Conservative Party in the polls. Not yet, it seems.

At Rochdale, the Conservative Party candidate managed to get twice the vote of Danczuk and Reform UK, despite not bothering to campaign much, whereas Danczuk tried hard, and was even supported by his leader, Richard Tice, riding a sky-blue battlebus.

The by-election does say something about Reform UK that goes beyond its very silly decision to put up Danczuk as a candidate. If Reform UK was going to capture the mainly white/English protest vote, this by-election would have been the place for that to take off. White English people are a majority, maybe even two-thirds, of the Rochdale constituency, yet most —probably the vast majority— did not bother to vote, and even fewer voted Reform UK.

Some may say that the above is because English people are apathetic. I say that they are apathetic for a reason, or reasons. One, in this case, was because Reform UK’s semi-“libertarian” offering just does not “hit the spot”. White English people want, though in most cases unconsciously, social nationalism, and there is not one party, even a small one, offering or proclaiming that ideology.

What does the by-election say about the Conservative Party in the run-up to GE 2024? Toast. This was the worst Con Party result (12%) at Rochdale since the Blair-Labour years (10.5% in 2005, 13.4% in 2001, 8.8% in 1997). In 2019, the Cons received 31.2%, and even in 2017 28.4%.

So there it is. Angry apathy from the white English voters, angry protest from the Pakistani Muslims, a Government without hope, but an Opposition Labour Party unable to inspire any enthusiasm yet likely to “win” GE 2024 purely by default. Also, an upstart and supposedly “populist” party, Reform UK, that has no real support.

I have said nothing about the victor, Galloway. That is because he is a maverick and, despite the “Workers Party” label, basically a one-man band. Whether he can retain his seat at GE 2024 or not is an open question. Maybe he can.

Talking heads and scribblers such as Tim Stanley are completely in the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby pocket. Totally controlled by their own careerism and greed. Also, and despite what his Wikipedia entry says, I should not be surprised were I to discover that Tim Stanley is partly-Jewish somewhere down the line. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Stanley. I have no direct evidence that he is, however. Neither is there any hint of anything of the sort in his interviews: https://europeanconservative.com/articles/interviews/stay-away-from-politics-an-interview-with-tim-stanley/.

95% of the repression on freedom of expression in the UK comes from the organized Jew-Zionist/pro-Israel lobby. I myself face sentencing in a couple of weeks, the malicious Jew-Zionist lobby having procured an entirely political prosecution of me in 2023 (and admit to having been trying to bag me for most of the past decade).

Israeli war crimes continue, supported by the Israel lobby in the UK and elsewhere.

I came to the same or a similar conclusion some years ago (rightly or wrongly).

Don’t forget, also, that Paul Mason is either half-Jewish or quarter-Jewish: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Mason_(journalist)#Early_life_and_education.

For me, Mason runs both with the hare and the hounds too much to be trusted…

Galloway must be one of the few, one of the very few MPs who can speak in public without either reading pathetic platitudes from a written crib, or sounding like a speak-your-weight machine, or both.

The symptoms of the slowly-encroaching “woke” global (Western) police state (in the UK, in the EU, elsewhere too) are now seen everywhere; they include my own Jewish-lobby-procured political prosecution and conviction last year (sentencing hearing this month).

I agree with that. I have no idea what Tice is like as a businessman, though I note that his main work was in a company founded by his grandfather. As a politician, I have no doubt that he is “nbg” (no bloody good). As I blogged some time before the by-election, Tice’s selection of someone as sleazy as Simon Danczuk was a miscall of stunning proportions. As in…you run a “populist”, “new broom”, “clean the Augean Stables” party, so naturally you pick as your candidate someone who was not only sleazy in the sexual sense when an MP but also a grifting freeloader and moneygrubber. An example of the worst of the old parties. No, wait…

How does that work? It doesn’t.

If Tice’s judgment is in question for having, inter alia, picked Danczuk as a candidate, then that, and the by-election result, also brings into question the judgment of political academic, scribbler and blogger Matt Goodwin, who has been boosting Reform UK as a possibly-unstoppable coming political force in the land. Ha…

Goodwin is on surer ground there.

…and there.

Sam Melia

Unconfirmed reports are saying that Sam Melia of Patriotic Alternative has been sentenced in the Crown Court to 2 years in prison for supposed “incitement to racial hatred”.

I did not follow the trial, but I understand that the charge or charges related to the production of (from the little I have read) very innocuously-worded stickers. “Evidence” deemed admissible (presumably going to the Defendant’s intention) included having a picture of Hitler.

The Star Chamber would be proud of England’s 21st Century police, CPS, and judiciary.

As we know, in 2024 Britain, political crime is deemed far more serious than real crime. In a country where crimes of serious violence, or considerable and dishonest acquisition, result often in non-custodial sentences, Sam Melia will now spend about a year in prison basically for having offended or opposed the System and “the usual suspects”.

I have no idea as to whether the plight of his wife, Laura Towler, and their very young child, was taken into account. Seemingly not, or not much. I understand that Laura Towler is presently pregnant with a second child, which will now be born (in the next couple of months) while its father is incarcerated.

I hope that a crowdfunder is soon set up for Melia’s wife and children.

“A huge crowd”? At a guess, 5,000. Maybe, at peak, 10,000.

Russia has ~143M people, so even 10,000 represents only 1 person in every 14,300. Out of the Moscow population of 13M, 1 person out of every 1,300. Somewhere between those two figures, then. 1 person out of every 1,300-14,300 people.

Of course, the authorities have tried to suppress visible support for Navalny, but even if the true figure is 1 out of every 1,300, and even if there are 20 secret supporters for every one on that march, that is still only, at best, 1 out of every 65 inhabitants of Moscow.

Whatever one’s view of Navalny, his percentage of even mild support was in single figures. Maybe 2%, maybe as high as 5%, of the Moscow population; probably no more than 1%, if that, among the whole population of Russia.

That film shows a seemingly larger crowd, but even if my calculations are out by a factor of 10, that would still show a visible and covert ratio of 1 Navalny supporter out of every 6 or 7 people. Significant but not overwhelming.

Anyway, such speculation is a castle in the air in the circumstances.

Quite. Someone such as Tim Stanley is the ideal political pseudo-philosopher for the present shallow age. One could say that, if “first time tragedy, second time farce” (as Marx opined in The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Napoleon), then the first time might be Roger Scruton, the second Tim Stanley. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Eighteenth_Brumaire_of_Louis_Bonaparte; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Scruton; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Stanley.

The parallels are not exact, admittedly.

Mason again. His “political philosophy” comes down to two words: “arrest them“. Nothing more. Neither a socialist nor a pro-capitalist, nor yet anything other than someone cobbling together disparate strands to make one jumbled string of pseudo-philosophy which really comes down to the exercise of State power by those who control it, and against any dissidents or dissenters.

Mason’s sheer bile is obvious to almost everyone but Mason himself. Mason’s ideal living environment would be somewhere such as the DDR, circa 1970. Maybe as a Stasi-connected academic in a concrete provincial university.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Mason_(journalist).

“Left”/”Right” are terms I never myself use. Not helpful or meaningful. Look at Mason, though, playing the role of “licensed revolutionary”. The police seem uninterested in talking to him about any inflammatory outbursts…

Mason’s MI5 “PF” (Personal File) would be a fascinating read…I would love to see my own, incidentally. I suppose it might make my ears burn…

Britain needs social nationalism. No matter the intervening repressions (as seen only today and previously in the Sam Melia show trial), events are “conspiring” or converging to create, down the line…Victory.

Well, you know what to do…

Would-be dictator Caroline Lucas says that “words matter“. Is that why she wants to ban free speech (even more)? Raus!

Peter Oborne mentions almost every group but the Jewish lobby; not even “Zionists”; only “Israel”. I can only imagine (joking slightly) that he is afraid of being blackballed by one of his clubs (the Garrick? I am only guessing).

Slightly disappointing by Oborne, who has in the past made interesting anti-Israel lobby documentaries: see

What (((group))) is behind Starmer? What group is behind Sunak? What group is behind “Reform UK”, Farage, Tice etc? Yes, the Israel lobby, but of what (in the UK) is that composed?…

In some ways, Oborne’s 15-minute tweet above is very hardhitting, but it pulls a few punches when it comes to “a certain group” in UK society.

Oborne refers to the danger of the “far right” etc. In fact, any danger is actually from the two superficially opposed groups— Islamists/Zionists.

Announcement from Laura Towler

I happened to see the message below, believed to be a public announcement from Laura Towler of Patriotic Alternative:

By now you will have heard that my husband Sam Melia was sentenced today to two years in prison for his intentions behind publishing stickers that the prosecution said were both lawful and truthful. 

The sentencing guidelines gave the judge the option of choosing anywhere between 2 years and 6 years, and the minimum was given due to the lack of seriousness regarding the offence. The judge could’ve suspended the sentence (and sent Sam home) at two years, however he chose not to and said the reason why was because he wanted the sentencing to act as a deterrent to other people with the same beliefs. 

Before today, Sam met with his Probation Officer who said that Sam was no risk to the public and there was no chance of reoffending, and recommended a community order. The judge chose to ignore this. 

The worst case scenario is that Sam will serve 12 months in prison. Potentially, he could serve 6 – 8 months. He is considered low risk and could therefore be on day release from as early as in a few months. 

If you take anything from this, let it remind you why we do what we do. We live in a country where our people are attacked by the anti-White state for advocating for their own safety and interests. 

I don’t want cuddles and condolences. I don’t want thoughts and prayers. I want you to join me in filling the void that Sam leaves for the next few months. There are no excuses. Not everybody has to be on the front line. There is plenty you can do behind the scenes. 

Sam should hold his head up high knowing that he put his head above the parapet when many others dare not. He didn’t back down at any point over the last three years, nor did he take any offer they offered him. He remained defiant for us, and now it’s our turn to repay his sacrifice by carrying his flame until he is back.

[unconfirmed, but believed to be by Laura Towler]

Another example of how the British jury is now little better than a rubber stamp. As for the judge in question, I prefer not to comment, mainly because I have no wish to transgress the “contempt of Court” rules; in any case, I did not follow the case. There is also the further fact that I myself, in Biblical language, will be “in the same condemnation” in a couple of weeks, being sentenced for —in effect— telling the truth.

Sunak

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2024/mar/01/extremists-trying-to-tear-us-apart-says-rishi-sunak-in-impromptu-no-10-speech

Rishi Sunak has claimed extremist groups in the UK are “trying to tear us apart”, in a hastily arranged Downing Street statement that came hours after George Galloway won a byelection in Rochdale.

Standing outside No 10 late on Friday, the prime minister condemned what he called “a shocking increase in extremist disruption and criminality” after the 7 October massacre by Hamas and the Israeli invasion of Gaza.

He also claimed democracy itself was a target, as he condemned the election of Galloway, who easily won the seat in Rochdale on a platform that focused on anti-Israel sentiment over Gaza.

However, in a sometimes rambling and seemingly contradictory 10-minute address, Sunak made points likely to anger MPs on the right of the Conservative party such as Suella Braverman and Robert Jenrick, who have sought to frame recent tensions as almost entirely the responsibility of Islamist extremists.

Sunak was at pains to stress the recent abuse of Muslim Britons as well as the Jewish community, and to highlight the threat from far-right groups as well as Islamists.

[The Guardian]

The little Indian money-juggler presently posing as Prime Minister has made a speech in which he conflated “democracy” with “electing System candidates”, in effect.

Sunak calls for no support for “extremism”, yet he does not seem to think it “extreme” to project the Israeli flag onto 10 Downing Street and then to call for support of a war by a huge mechanized army against, mostly, civilians, half of which are under 18 years of age, and about a quarter of whom are undisputedly small children and babies.

So far, the Israeli Jews have killed about 30,000 or so in Gaza, in under 5 months. About half were children.

Starmer, that nasty ideas-free puppet bureaucrat, is no better.

Incidentally, I myself have blogged about both “democracy” and “extremism” in recent years:

Rochdale by-election

I blogged about the by-election a few days ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/02/25/diary-blog-25-february-2024-including-a-look-at-the-upcoming-rochdale-by-election/.

The latest from the bookmakers is that George Galloway (Workers Party) is odds-on to win, followed by (around 6/4) Azhar Ali, the former Labour candidate disowned by Starmer, Azhar Ali therefore being an independent candidate in reality, though “Labour” on the ballot paper. The next in line is the LibDem, trailing the frontrunners at about 65/1. Reform UK (Simon Danczuk) is at 100/1. The rest of the field of 11— 1,000/1.

This is now between Galloway and “Labour” Azhar Ali. Former Labour MP Danczuk only got 1.8% (as Independent) in 2017, after having been sacked. The LibDem may do better than expected, being a white man and alternative to Ali and also to Scotsman George Galloway, whose campaign has been all about Gaza, and whose voters are (90%+) Muslims. Still, if I had to bet, I would probably go with the perceived favourite, Galloway.

The by-election is between two candidates trying to capture the Pakistani Muslim vote. Where do the English voters go? They are still the majority in the constituency, numerically, yet have been frozen out.

Symptomatic of System politics in the UK?

I have no sympathy for Danczuk, and little for Reform UK, but will be interested to see how they go. Had Reform UK put up a better candidate, it might have gone close. As it is, I daresay that the white (English) vote will be split several ways.

Israel declares war on “antisemitism” and “anti-Semites”

https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/article-789439

Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikii said that “the time has come to move from the defensive to the offensive, and to ensure that the perpetrators of anti-Semitism are identified and dealt with.

The time has come to move from the defensive to the offensive and to ensure that the perpetrators of antisemitism are identified and dealt with,” Chikli said.

The initiative will include a push for a government proclamation to improve Israel’s global standing and legislation to target organizations, including NGOs, and individuals engaged in antisemitism.

[Jerusalem Post]

Well, there it is. “They” want a war, and are about to launch one.

In fact, Israel already targets (via local volunteers in the UK and elsewhere) anyone opposed to Jewish/Zionist global domination.

I myself am due to be sentenced next month, following my conviction in November 2023 for political “offences” under the notorious “bad law” Communications Act 2003, s.127 (recommended for repeal by the Law Commission).

What the Israelis are saying about why the Israeli response on 7 October 2023 was at first very slow, and then incompetent (killing Israeli civilians indiscriminately).

Needless to say, the “Pearl Harbor” idea, i.e. that the Israeli leadership knew of the attack plan but allowed it to happen in order to be able to flatten Gaza with a figleaf of justification, is not mooted.

1956. The year of my birth in present incarnation.

A very important message still not understood by some people.

One cannot simply dismiss that tweet as “a woman scorned”; the kind of dishonesty alleged destroys (if proven) hope for social nationalism, destroys trust.

Not that it matters in terms of realities, though. “Britain First” has no chance anyway, whether at Rochdale or anywhere else.

True, but I seem to recall that Jayda Fransen was pro-Israel not so very long ago…: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2020/09/11/diary-blog-11-september-2020-including-a-few-notes-about-jayda-fransen-and-her-new-british-freedom-party/.

I was unaware that that bastard Pollard was still alive.

I wonder how many Jews there are in, e.g. the Security Service/MI5 and SIS? Some, for sure. Where lie their loyalties? See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonathan_Pollard.

Pollard was granted Israeli citizenship while incarcerated. He relocated to Israel in 2020.

I suppose that the Israelis thought that they owed Pollard something. After all, when he desperately appealed to the Israeli Embassy in Washington —when the FBI was on his tail— the Israeli Embassy guards were ordered to shut the gates and not let him back in. He was then immediately arrested by the FBI. He did 30 years in Federal custody, altogether (inc. 2 years of pre-trial detention).

More from the global police state

https://www.theglobeandmail.com/politics/article-justice-minister-defends-house-arrest-power-for-people-feared-to

“[Canadian] Justice Minister Arif Virani has defended a new power in the online harms bill to impose house arrest on someone who is feared to commit a hate crime in the future – even if they have not yet done so already.

The person could be made to wear an electronic tag, if the attorney-general requests it, or ordered by a judge to remain at home, the bill says.

Bill C-63 is designed to curb the proliferation of hate online, but it also establishes a new hate-crime offence, which would carry a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.

Mr. Virani said the hate-crime offence would only be applied if coupled with another crime and the life sentence would only apply in the most serious of cases – not, for example, for mischief to a garage door.

Mr. Virani said the current bill followed studies of the experiences of other countries, including Britain, France and Germany, which have produced similar legislation. Some have had to reverse course after challenges and criticism.

Since it was published on Monday, some lawyers and constitutional experts have raised fears that Bill C-63 could chill free speech.

The bill would allow people to file complaints to the Canadian Human Rights Commission over what they perceive as hate speech online – including, for example, off-colour jokes by comedians. People found guilty of posting hate speech could have to pay victims up to $20,000 in compensation.

But experts including internet law professor Michael Geist have said even a threat of a civil complaint – with a lower burden of proof than a court of law – and a fine could have a chilling effect on freedom of expression.

[The Globe and Mail]

Look at what has happened in the UK. Material (comments, cartoons) are supposed to fall into unlawfulness only if “grossly” offensive. In theory, remarks, cartoons merely “offensive” are not unlawful, but in practice one finds (as in my own case last November) that once the police, CPS and courts think that XYZ is “offensive”, then XYZ becomes, almost automatically, “grossly offensive“, and the maker is then convicted accordingly (as I was).

Free speech has then been further chilled, or killed…

Canada is asking for something akin to civil war by enacting tyrannical laws of this sort.
