Clausewitz recommended that offensive force be concentrated on one direction, ideally upon a single point, later termed the Schwerpunkt, not dispersed here and there.
The weasel words of the supporters of Israel cannot justify the destruction of a whole city, the inhabitants of which are, half of them, under -18; a quarter of the population consists of babies or small children.
Israel may have nuclear weapons, nerve gas, tanks, jet aircraft, missiles etc, not to mention an over-wealthy and over-powerful support group in the rest of the world, but its days are numbered.

Here is the clip.
Suella Braverman is branding all the pro-Palestinian marches as “hate marches” which have the aim, in her view, of “wiping Israel off the map”.
She includes all the tens of thousands of protestors in that statement.
Suella Braverman has nothing but her political career. She was no more than mediocre as barrister: her “KC” status is an honorific one, in effect, granted after she became Attorney-General; in fact, at one time, all MP-barristers were granted “KC” on the nod (one such, in the 1960s, was John Mortimer, the writer). Suella Braverman will never return to the practising Bar.
My view is that Suella Braverman can see the way the wind is blowing; most Con Party MPs will not be MPs after next year. She, however, is in a very safe Con Party seat (Fareham), where she scored 63.7% of the vote in 2019. She will almost certainly be re-elected in 2024.
Suella Braverman’s populist anti-migration-invasion stance will also prove popular (both in Fareham and elsewhere). Even I like the (empty) rhetoric. In a Conservative Party in which many of the recent quasi-“big beasts” are or soon will be gone (stepped down or chucked out) or discredited (e.g. Liz Truss), Suella Braverman might actually be in a strong position to become leader of whatever rump rabble of Con Party MPs is left, especially with her supposedly (?) anti-immigration, and other, rhetoric.
As to the Jew/Israel aspect, she is married to a Jew (and he certainly sounds like a Zionist, pro-Israel Jew). She has effectively pledged fealty to the Jewish lobby by attending their dinners etc; and now this. She needs to get the Israel lobby and/or Jewish lobby onside if she is going to try for the Con Party leadership.

China's representative to the United Nations: We express our deep sympathy to the people of Gaza and call on all parties to stop the war and prevent further escalation of the conflict.
This is what the supporters of Israel in the UK and elsewhere are supporting, whatever weasel words they may utter.
Incidentally, it was —almost boringly— to be expected that the “human rights specialists”, often Jewish lawyers, in England, almost all seem to have fallen silent; a few are even excusing Israel, while whining at the same time how they feel “afraid” to keep on living here because they saw a Swastika drawn on a wall as they drove past somewhere, or they heard a few chants by Palestinians on TV news reports. What hypocrites (also expected, frankly…).

A complete lunatic, in my opinion. I should add that, until recently, I had never heard of her. She seems to be the absolute personification of the obsessed “family law” practitioner— thankfully, a type only encountered by me personally rather rarely; I did not in general practise “family law”, though I did do a handful of “ancillary support” (financial) matters in the early 1990s, and one (I think only one) large-scale child custody matter, all of which, by Grace of God, ended successfully for me.
Again, my above view is only my opinion as a —wrongfully and unlawfully— disbarred ex-barrister…
That makes a lot of sense…suppose that tips it back onto the legal bodies to ensure they receive holistically beneficial representation from personally disinterested professionals.

As far as I have seen on Twitter, the Israel-supporting Jews in the UK mostly offer weaselling excuses for why the Israeli war machine “has to” attack these children along with the Hamas fighters. Some even applaud the slaughter openly.
From what I have read in the newspapers, Hamas operatives are about 4% of the population of Gaza, whereas under-18 non-combatants are about 50%. Actual children and babies are probably about 25% of the population.
Israel is either completely callous towards the suffering and death meted out to the children of Gaza, or is, in the typically crude Israeli phrase, “mowing the lawn“, i.e. killing as many Gazan children as possible, every few years, so that they do not grow up to fight Israel.

This is exactly the situation. “Entitled” Jew-Zionists in the UK pretending to be “in fear”, and making themselves out to be “victims”, when they are (many of them anyway) cheerleading the murderous assault on the civilians of Gaza and elsewhere.
Jew-Zionists in the UK are, in the contemporary term, merely “cosplaying” being victims. I even saw tweets today about how “scared” some pretend to be because they saw a photo on Twitter/X showing a small and crudely-drawn (or cut) reverse Swastika on an Underground train seat, obviously drawn by some vandal, probably a child or teenager.

I have to admit that that clip amused me a little, but Laurence Fox is really wrongheaded in his support for Israel’s Gaza “holocaust” and for worldwide Jew-Zionism, though I support his view on the statues of our great past Empire.
Politically, Laurence Fox and Reclaim Party are a waste of space, and quite obviously will get nowhere at the General Election of 2024.
As for the Richard Tice/Nigel Farage latest “controlled opposition” party, Reform UK, the same. The only real difference is that Reform UK is better organized and seems to have at least (?) 3%, maybe 5% of the voters willing to back it. It might even get to 10% in some seats, as a protest vote. Still just a waste of space and a waste of time, of course.
Only a real and tightly-run social-national party can change the way things are going in this country.

“Let’s talk about rape in France. We all know who is doing the raping, so we don’t have to talk about that. But, let’s prove it by numbers.
In 1971, the rate of declared rapes in France stood at 2.0 cases per 100,000 people. In 2015, when the “great migration” started the rape rate for France was 20.1 cases per 100,000 people.Today, they’re sitting at 39.59 cases per 100,000 people. You’re looking at nearly 94,000 reported rapes a year. About 5,000 to 7,000 of those rapes are gang rapes.
The other day, some migrant raped a 93 year old woman and a 95 year old woman while they were in a hospital.
Yet, many young liberal French women are still encouraging the illegal migration to continue. Do they think they’ll be passed over when a migrant randomly gets horny for something and they’re in arms distance? None of it has to be this way.“

They really do want to throw away any chance of keeping voters,cut pensioners allowance that they have already worked and contributed to society, but increase the amount of refugees and asylum seekers who contribute nothing
If the Triple Lock is cut down, weaselled away, effectively abandoned, legions of State Pensioners will lash back at the “Conservative” Party. People aged 66+ years are the mainstay of the Con Party (both as voters and as members); if they go, the Con Party has no chance at the 2024 General Election and no future beyond that.
That's what it looks like. They've pressed the self destruct button.
The Con Party (a far more accurate name than “Conservative”) is currently running at 25% in the opinion polls. The proportion of people of 65+ years in the UK is around 19%. The proportion of people aged 60+ is around 23%. Most of both categories vote Conservative. If even half of those abstain, or vote elsewhere, the nationwide Con Party vote might be as low as 15%, or even lower, and the number of Con Party seats after 2024 might be as few as 16 (Labour seats 548).
The two main System parties are both now without purpose. I had thought, a few years ago, that Labour would collapse first. Turns out that it will be the Con Party. Much as I despise most of the Labour MPs, particularly the Shadow Cabinet, and especially Israel puppet Starmer, the Con Party MPs have forfeited the right to live (speaking metaphorically and politically). Completely useless.
Incidentally, despite my now being (since 2022) a State Pensioner myself (hard for me to believe though that is), my views are not much coloured by that. I only receive about a half-pension anyway, having spent so many years overseas.
History comes full circle. Even a Jewish (albeit apparently anti-Zionist) tweeter has echoed my view that the attack on Gaza is most similar to the Reduction of the Warsaw Ghetto by German forces in 1943.
[Jews being led out of the Warsaw Ghetto by Waffen-SS men, 1943]
The German forces of 1943, mostly Waffen-SS, did not use poison gas in attacking the Warsaw Ghetto, and fought against the Jews (many of them armed) on the ground.
On that basis, the Jewish/Israeli attack on Gaza and its 2 million civilians is far more extreme than the German attack on the Warsaw Ghetto.
The Jews/Israelis are using massive air power to demolish whole neighbourhoods in Gaza. Now, if the Middle East Eye and Daily Telegraph reports are accurate, it seems that the Jews/Israelis may use poison gas (from what I have read somewhere or other —admittedly unverified— a cyanide compound similar to the “notorious” Zyklon B) to gas both Hamas operatives and unarmed civilians hiding below ground, and/or will use chemical “sponge bombs” to fill those tunnels, asphyxiating those in them.
History is more than ironic at times.
Having said that, we on the outside must just wait to see what happens. “In war, truth is the first casualty“…

As soon as the Israelis started the present round of their repeated slaughter of the population of Gaza, up popped Rachel Riley (and a few other Jews and Jewish organizations, such as the tiny but well-funded “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) to threaten, on Twitter/X, anyone opposing Israeli actions by reason of, or connected to, so-called “antisemitism”.
She strikes me as a very unpleasant woman.

“50,000“. So about 1 in 1,000 people in the UK (and elsewhere?)…or, to put it another way, only 1 out of every 5 or 6 Jews in the UK. Not very impressive.
Laurence Fox really should stop posing as a political leader. He is a political bad joke. He is, or thinks that he is, pro-free speech, and I approve of that (though, like Toby Young, Delingpole, and the whole “Free Speech Union” mob, his support is limited and biased), but he is basically a disconnected Conservative Party person who (understandably) wants less censorship, and fewer migrant-invaders coming to the UK.
Fox is currently parroting Israeli/Jewish lobby propaganda. He should stop pretending that “Reclaim Party” is anything other than a political joke (and far less amusing than the Monster Raving Loonies) and either return to acting, or join a real social-national party (when one exists).
I notice that Jews are actually reporting pro-Palestinian people who have been removed pro-Israel posters in London (and maybe elsewhere) to the police. In fact, tearing down such posters is not a crime. Putting up such posters is a crime (all flyposting is a crime in London).

As I know only too well, free speech is on the way out in the UK. I am (obviously) not a Muslim, let alone an “Islamist”, but I am not at all “offended” by some foreign person shouting about “Jihad” against Israel in the streets of London. I am not even very offended, or would not be, if the same foreign individual were to cry out for “Jihad” against the UK, or against me personally. After all, the most extreme Zionist Jews have been tweeting malevolently about me for about 13 years. The people of whom to be afraid are those not shouting in the streets.
If foreign (inc. foreign but born here) groups are a danger, then resettle them outside the UK.
As for Suella Braverman, she (like Jenrick, and Mark Harper, who was weaselling for Israel, as usual, on Sky News this morning) is just another doormat for the Jewish lobby. She has no idea of much, either politically or, I think, legally. A silly woman who is trying to position herself to be the leader of whatever small group of Conservative Party MPs is left after 2024.

Despite the odds, he miraculously survived the impact. Upon realizing he was still alive, an intense will to live surged within him. Yet, the weight of his clothes continuously pulled him beneath the surface of San Francisco Bay. For what seemed like an eternity, he struggled to resurface briefly, gasping for air, just enough to hold on to life.
Suddenly, he felt an unusual force from below lifting him above the water’s surface, where he remained until the Coast Guard arrived. It was only later that he discovered the mysterious presence keeping him afloat: a sea lion had been supporting his body until the rescue boat arrived, as eyewitnesses had observed.
His story gained major media coverage and he has since become a motivational speaker and advocate for suicide prevention.“

It is not impossible that there will eventually be a kind of sectarian/civil war across Israel/Palestine. The massive military advantages Israel possesses lie in nuclear weapons, tanks and other armour, air power, high-tech surveillance, much of which loses effectiveness or even utility in closely-packed areas (which describes much of Israel/Palestine).
There may be a war, eventually, in which infantry or guerrilla forces play a major part.
Impossible? Maybe, but my prediction, a few years ago, that the Palestinians might break out of their “open prisons” to attack Israeli civilians in Jewish areas has now come to pass in the recent attack on Southern Israel, so who knows?
Senior advisor to Israeli Prime Minister Mark Regev: We realize that the battle will be difficult in Gaza, and Hamas has built a formidable military machine.
As I blogged before, the Gaza situation, as it now is, is most similar, historically, to the Reduction of the Warsaw Ghetto in 1943, but this time the Jews are not the ragged defenders but the heavily-armed and armoured army, with air support, attacking an urban enclave filled with mostly-unarmed civilians (in this case, mostly babies, young children, and young teenagers).

…and in, say, 20 years’ time, when the children in Gaza suffering now are 25-35 years old, what do you imagine will be their feeling about Israel and Israelis? Israel may not —now— much care, but if the results are incursions and massacres on 10x the scale of that recently seen, it will have no choice but to care…

She is right, and about Elliot Colburn very right (except that his surname is “Colburn” not “Coldburn“). Here he is, the careerist little twit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliot_Colburn. Never really had a job; no profession, either.
Andrew Bridgen is considered very dangerous by the System, because he is an MP, not someone opining on Twitter/X or Facebook. The System will be doing everything possible to have him removed as MP and replaced in 2024 by a Con Party or Lab Party drone who will make the “expected” noises. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Bridgen.
Looking also at the present political climate, and the great unpopularity of the present government, it may be that Bridgen has as much chance as a “Reclaim Party” candidate as he would have had as a “Conservative” Party one.
Reclaim Party is a dead duck, in my opinion, but Bridgen has a high public profile, and it is just about possible that, if the Conservative Party vote in the constituency collapses, or reduces by 40%-50%, and if the Labour Party vote only increases slightly, that Bridgen might just manage to come through the middle and win by a short head. A long-shot, but just about possible.
I do not disagree on some of what Goodwin often expresses, but anyone who doormats for Israel and the Jewish lobby (as Goodwin does in that discussion, and in some of his tweets) cannot be respected by me…

Incredible that, in 2023, a large organization such as Currys is still unaware that “Jack Monroe” is a total fraud and “grifter”. Still, if you have ever been in any of their stores, you can see that Currys is badly-run, and only saved from being hopeless by the skills of some of their staff, who however, are rather poorly-paid (underpaid).
“Jack Monroe” runs dozens if not hundreds of Twitter/X “sock accounts”, most of which are very obvious.
Incredibly, “Jack Monroe ” now has 507 utter mugs sending her between £3.50 and £44 per month via Patreon. Each. At one time she had over 800, but that fell back to below 400 as she was exposed as a fraud. Seems that another 100+ idiots have signed up in the past few months. Truly it is said that… there’s a new mug born every minute…

All part of the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan: select non-whites to become MPs, TV presenters, actors in TV shows etc. Many of the political ones are actually outright frauds, like that Festus character. Shaun Bailey is another one, and he now sits in the House of Lords as a fake “lord”, “lording it” over British people.
What exactly are the academic and professional qualifications of Festus Akinbusoye? He seems to have wangled his way from being an aide to a tory MP to Police & Crime Commissioner. A case of cronies being lined up to fight ex-tory seats?
Tamworth 36% turnout, Mid-Bed 44%. Tamworth 46% for Lab, Mid-Bed 34%. It means in Tamworth 83.5% DIDN'T vote Labour and in Mid-Bed 85%. People want change but they want real change not archaic monolith so-called mainstream parties. You're an idiot to want a vast Labour majority.
“Festus” (in Mid-Bedfordsire) too; he kept his job (and pay) as Police and Crime Commissioner, just in case he failed to get elected. Those “PCCs” are the biggest wastes of space around (arguably). Most of them seem to be both stupid and corrupt.
As for Andrew Cooper (in Tamworth), marginally better, but struck me, reading about him, as pretty stupid.
Thoughts about the by-elections in Tamworth and Mid-Bedfordshire
Obviously, “seismic” for the Conservative Party. I have blogged previously about the by-elections, but will say a little more know that the results are in.
This is surely the end of the road for the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak, and his Government. So far, he has said nothing, and is still in the Middle East, having been doormatting for Israel and the Jews for the past few days.
Will Sunak now resign? If not, his party will undoubtedly be wiped out next year. If he does step down now, it may give the Con Party a slight chance of at least limiting the damage. That would depend, though, on finding a replacement at least superficially credible.
In my view, neither of the Labour victories yesterday were really votes for Labour as such; they were votes for Labour as the best way of defeating the candidate of the “Conservative” Party.
In Tamworth, the rather poor Con Party candidate still received 40.7% of the vote (Lab 45.8%). In Mid-Bedfordshire, “Festus”, the Con Party candidate, received 31.8% (Lab 34.1%).
Both were fairly close contests, but their importance lies in the fact that both had been considered pretty solid Con Party seats, despite the poor quality of both MPs elected in 2019 and previously.
At present it looks as though the Con Party may be left with about 50 seats after 2024, unless something huge happens in the meantime.
What else? Well, the LibDems performed very badly, especially at Tamworth, where the LD candidate, an Indian barrister, received a vote of only 1.6%.
As far as broadly “nationalist” candidates and parties are concerned, poor in both contests. The barely-nationalist Reform UK, the latest Farage-ist vehicle, scored 5.4% at Tamworth, and 3.7% in Mid-Beds. Underwhelming, looking at the surrounding circumstances.
Reform UK will not get anywhere because it is not social-national. A less globalist Con Party, really. It may even have been set up as a “safety valve” to prevent a social-national party from emerging.
Rump UKIP, and Britain First, both stood at Tamworth. Both lost their deposits.
Conclusion: people generally, even former Con Party voters, want rid of the present Government. The next General Election, sometime in the next 14 months, may be almost existential for the Con Party. 50 MPs, perhaps. That is now a distinct possibility. Unlikely that Con Party will retain more than 100 MPs, even bearing in mind that by-elections are more likely to produce upsets. The turnout in both seats was about half of what it was in 2019.
I detect no real enthusiasm for Labour, though. These two results were both caused by people voting tactically to remove candidates of a party now almost universally despised (and which has been unwilling to face the electorate, despite having selected 2 new PMs, for 4 years).
The “Conservative” Party MPs are saying that it will all be different at the 2024 General Election. Really? Why? Why should it be? I think, on present evidence, that the result will be much the same as yesterday, though with a slight adjustment in the Con Party favour, by reason of higher turnout and because some may have reservations about creating a Labour “elected dictatorship”.

BREAKING: AL-AHLI BAPTIST HOSPITAL MASSACRE – BBC JOURNALIST STATES IT HAD TO BE ISRAEL
BBC's John Donnison: "It's hard to see what else this could be, really, given the size of the explosion, other than an Israeli air strike, or several air strikes" pic.twitter.com/Gxx4evC9DW
Israel is lying through its teeth to blame the hospital massacre in Gaza on Hamas. Neither Hamas has that powerful rocket nor has there been any second explosion of stored explosives to pass on the blame. Netanyahu's murderous hubris has brought this disgrace to Israel.
Most Israelis are not descended from ancient “Israelites” but from Khazars:
Much of the WW2 “holocaust” narrative, used to give legitimacy to the migration-invasion of Palestine by Jews in the mid/late 1940s, is not true, notably the “gas chambers” fable;
The migration-invasion of Palestine by Jews in the mid/late 1940s was neither necessary nor justified. Jews massacred large numbers of Palestinian Arabs, and buried the bodies in mass graves, afterwards stealing the land, houses, apartments etc of the murdered victims.
The “holocaust” narrative is still, 80 years on, being used as cover for the continuing Israeli/Jewish military and other crimes.
Anna Botting gives an outstanding and brave example of how genuine journalism can expose truth from questions.
The accuracy of the questions expose the truth to the lies of the answers.
Jew-Zionist loony and troublemaker pretends to fear “a worldwide pogrom“. I suppose that I should not comment.
Same loony seems to think that the inhuman destruction of the hospital in Gaza should not be noted or criticized because it is a so-called “blood libel” (the mediaeval belief that some Jews killed and/or ate European children).
In any case, even if we leave aside the hospital attack and the 500+ killed there, look at what the Israeli Jews are doing generally in Gaza. Massive destruction. Massive attacks on areas full of civilians, about half of which are children, and a quarter of which are young children under 11 or 12 years of age. Also, the cutting off of water supplies, food supplies, gas, electricity, medical supplies etc.
Meanwhile, in the UK, several people individually (including me) are being prosecuted under a law (Communications Act 2003, s.127) which is so open to abuse (mainly from Jewish/Zionist cabals) that the Law Commission has officially recommended its repeal.
I should add, belatedly, that my alleged sins are said to date from 2020 and 2021— nothing to do with the present Israel/Palestine situation.

Russia demands that Israel present satellite images of the explosion in the hospital.
Russia describes the attack on a hospital in Gaza as a “crime and an act of dehumanization.”

Sounds like a fairly moronic individual. Director of an engineering company called GEFCO, formerly owned by Russian interests.
In that report, the photo shows him wearing a blue suit with two military medals (in the Russian fashion, too, i.e. the actual medals, not just the ribbons).
The medals appear to be (the photo is not very clear) the equivalent of “campaign” medals, one for Iraq and one for service of at least 30 days with the NATO force in Kosovo. I am not very well-informed about medals, so I may not be quite right about that.
I find the Tamworth by-election hard to call. I think that it must be between Con and Lab. I think that it may be close, but Labour has a pretty good chance here.
What interests me is the question “if both by-elections are lost, will Sunak resign, or at least face calls to resign?”

DOUBLE BY-ELECTION DEFEAT FOR TORIES
@SkyNews obtained a memo to Greg Hands outlining concerns that the party's vote share could halve in both Tamworth & Mid Beds by-elections tomorrow, ending in the loss of both seats.
I'm indeed very confident of a Lib Dem win. I've knocked on hundreds of doors where there are very disgruntled Tory voters who'll either stay at home, or vote Lib Dem. Only a handful would even consider voting Labour. The Tories are going to lose, and Labour can't win in Mid Beds
Well, who knows? With a day to go, there seems all to play for, not only for Lab and Con, but for the LibDems too.
At a guess, I too would have looked (pre-2020) at the Cons as the most likely choice by far (Nadine Dorries scored almost 60% in 2019), but people even in very “Conservative” areas are now mightily angry (mixed with apathy in view of the convergence of most Con/Lab policy). Not sure whether those former Con voters will vote Lab, though. I am inclined to think abstention or voting LibDem might be more popular.
The betting markets are often wrong on by-elections. Still, at present the betting exchanges have the Cons odds-on, Labour around 3/1 and LibDems around 5/1.
Sounds plausible, but that LibDem bet at 5/1 could be value.

More about Tamworth
Further research into the Conservative Party candidate seems to confirm my earlier comments about his medals (Iraq and Kosovo): he enlisted in the Staffordshire Regiment, and served for 6 years. His final rank was Lance Corporal: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-cooper-38367816a/?originalSubdomain=uk, and it seems that his specialism was as a sniper.
Cooper himself self-describes as “Progressing from Sniper to Lance Corporal in the Staffordshire Regiment of the British Army. Completing tours such as Iraq, Kenya, Kosovo and Bosnia performing duties including surveillance, target acquisition and official duties in France for Queen Elizabeth II“; and
“Experienced, effective and diligent Railway Engineer with a strong track record in the sector following on from a distinguished military career. I specialise in railway maintenance and asset management but also have significant experience of railway engineering projects.”
Cooper having been a railway engineer for 17 years, I should think that he does a lot more good in that field than he might as an MP.
Well, there it is. We shall know the result late tomorrow, or early on Friday.
I think that Labour will win at Tamworth; not so sure about who will win in Mid-Beds. The bookmakers prefer Labour at Tamworth, and the Cons in Mid-Bedfordshire.

“FAZ: Russia is using the situation in Israel to discredit the United States and distract attention from Ukraine.
After the Hamas attack, the Russian President, on the one hand, spoke out for Israel’s right to defend itself, on the other hand, he condemned the blockade of Gaza, comparing it to Leningrad, and confirmed his commitment to the two-state principle.
Despite the fact that Russia has good contacts in the region and called for de-escalation of the conflict, Western countries in the UN Security Council rejected Moscow’s proposal. Frankfurter Allgemeine explains this by saying that Russia has intentions to use the new conflict to its advantage. The newspaper points out that the Russian president calls the situation in Israel “a striking example of the failure of US policy in the Middle East” and accuses Washington of not taking the “fundamental interests of the Palestinian people” into account.
In addition, according to the German newspaper, the Kremlin is using the conflict to divert attention from Ukraine. “The prospect that Israel will now receive Western weapons and ammunition that Kyiv might otherwise receive is emboldening the power apparatus and the media” in Russia.
Moscow also benefits from rising oil prices, which fill government finances.“

“America has been condoning Israeli war crimes for years, recalls Scott Ritter It is not unusual that the Israeli military bombed a hospital in Gaza, killing 500 people.
Such tactics are consistent with the IDF’s “Mowing the Grass” doctrine, which involves disproportionate violence against not only militants, but also civilians, including children, US Marine Corps intelligence officer Scott Ritter said in an interview with the Judging Freedom YouTube channel.
At the same time, he said, Washington is in no hurry to introduce an embargo, stop or at least criticize Tel Aviv, whose army is actually committing war crimes with the help of American weapons. Moreover, the United States has been turning a blind eye to this fact for many years. “We know what Israel is doing. We support what Israel is doing, so any talk in the US about compassion for the Palestinian population is one hundred percent false. We have never sympathized with the Palestinians. We have always supported Israel’s perspective and strategic goals, even if they include the “Cut the Grass” policy,” Ritter emphasized.”
“Rapists could be spared jail from next week as prisons reach breaking point, it was reported last night.
Sex offenders and burglars could be let out on bail rather than handed an immediate custodial sentence, according to guidance issued to judges.
The most dangerous criminals will reportedly have to be held in magistrates’ court cells if they are remanded in custody.
Prisons in England and Wales are on the brink of maximum capacity, with 88,016 inmates last Friday – leaving just 650 spaces spare.
The senior presiding judge for England and Wales, Lord Edis, ordered that sentencing hearings will have to be postponed from Monday, The Times reported.”
[Daily Mail].
There has been a sentencing crisis for years. While many crimes of drunken violence, acquisitive crime etc attract, quite often, non-custodial sentences, other crimes, often very minor, not only result in prison time but in very considerable time.
Look at the political realm. Harmless teenage fantasists who have downloaded online material such as the notorious Anarchist’s Cookbook (which was sold openly in London bookshops in the 1970s, and without the State imploding) have been sentenced to terms of 4, 5, even 7 years, incredibly. Anything (political or otherwise) involving illicit possession of a weapon (even a WW2 revolver) has attracted sentencing as severe, or more severe.
Likewise, there have been sentenced to prison people such as Alison Chabloz (sentenced to a number of months for posting “antisemitic” satirical songs and cartoons online), Jez Turner (a year, for having suggested in a brief speech in Whitehall that Jews should be driven out from England as they were under Edward I in the 14th Century), and “Sven Longshanks” (James Allchurch, sentenced to a very harsh 2.5 years for having posted “antisemitic” material on an internet radio station).
The alert reader will have noted the common factor in the immediately-above three Draconian sentences, but what do you expect when 10 Downing Street has the Israeli flag projected onto its facade? Or when Keir Starmer, posing as Labour Party leader, thinks that the Israeli ethnostate has every right to cut off water, food, and electricity (and everything else) from the 2 million inhabitants of Gaza.
As far as non-political crimes are concerned, one often sees newspaper reports these days about various types of criminal sentenced to, say, terms of 4, 5, or 6 years in prison, when a far shorter term of, say, a couple of years would really suffice. Likewise, people are sometimes —in fact, often— sentenced to a year or more in circumstances where, even retaining a custodial element, a few months would be more than enough.
At the present time, the crisis of available space would easily be solved if judges were to work out carefully, as they are supposed to do, the proper sentence in every case, but then, after all that, cut off a percentage, as an emergency administrative-judicial measure. Say 20%, so that a headline sentence of 5 years becomes one of 4 years, or one of 2.5 years becomes one of 2 years. That would scarcely impact anything other than space in prisons and, within a few months, would start to solve the present problem.
“Captain Sir Tom Moore‘s daughter has confessed to pocketing £800,000 from books written by the NHS fundraising war veteran.
In a tearful interview, Hannah Ingram-Moore revealed how the family received the money thanks to her father – whose lockdown walks raised £39million for the nation’s health service.
Mrs Ingram-Moore said her father wanted them to keep the profits from his three books: Captain Tom’s Life Lessons, One Hundred Steps and his autobiography Tomorrow Will Be A Good Day.
The family is also adamant that people buying the books were never told their money was going to charity.
However, the prologue of his autobiography calls this claim into question and suggests the veteran thought his books were just another way for him to raise cash.
The extract read: ‘Astonishingly at my age, with the offer to write this memoir I have also been given the chance to raise even more money for the charitable foundation now established in my name.’“

I was in the minority of sceptics when the old ex-officer (he spent 6 years in uniform during WW2) started his “crusade”. While arguably wrongheaded, one had to respect the grit of the old fellow, yet the whole thing played into the “scamdemic” propaganda of the time, and even the £30M raised probably did little to help the maladministered NHS.
I could see that the daughter and her husband were basically a pair of freeloaders, if not outright frauds, but people so badly (and rightly) want to believe. In something. In anything. You only have to look at the well-known online “grifters” and frauds around. “Jack Monroe”, “Supertanskiii”, “Man Behaving Dadly” etc. There are dozens, probably hundreds, of them. They destroy trust in society, as do some of the family of the late Captain Moore.

I think that I may start including a random historical note from Wikipedia etc in all my blog posts. It is quite shocking how few British people know their own history, even in outline.
[little boy and his dead cat, following Israeli air attack on Gaza]
Were the atrocities not so terrible, it would be funny to see the UK Jewish/Israel lobby all both pushing out (identical) Israeli propaganda and —at the same time— saying, when asked about the quasi-genocidal Israeli Gaza siege, and mass murder of Gazan civilians, “oh, no, that has nothing to do with us; we bear no responsibility” and “we are just opposed to antisemitism, the actions of Israel are nothing to do with our campaigning in the UK...”.
Etc.
Typical.
Incidentally, I have never seen political fraud and con-man Nigel Farage so pumped-up as when parroting the current Israeli propaganda line in the past few days.
“In the wake of the merciless assault by Hamas, Israel seems to be planning the same approach.
All the signs are that its government is preparing to retaliate on a massive scale, mobilising the country’s formidable armed forces against Gaza, which is controlled by Hamas.
Yet just as Iraq turned out to be a calamitous error, fuelling a lasting cycle of violence, so I fear that – however understandable – any attempt by Israel to exact its vengeance with a savage display of military might could be just as disastrous.”
“…a full invasion, such as Israel’s generals are surely discussing today, would be a bloody quagmire. For Jerusalem, it would mean a conveyor belt of tired soldiers fighting day and night, resupplying with food, water and military hardware, rotating and evacuating casualties, for months on end.
It would chew up thousands of troops for little or no benefit, and poison the Arab world, and to a certain extent the international community, against the Jewish state.
Alas, it looks like Israel is set to take precisely this route.
Already the country has launched a barrage of air strikes, causing heavy civilian casualties – unsurprising given that more than two million people are living in a strip the size of the Isle of Wight.” [in fact, smaller than the Isle of Wight— 141 sq. miles as against 148].
“This bombardment has been buttressed by a siege designed to weaken the morale of the citizenry by cutting off their water and electricity.
Yet what is the ultimate objective? What does ‘victory’ for Israel even look like?”
[Gaza City, already devastated by Israeli air attack]
It would be even more interesting were Israel to face attack or, even more so, invasion from the directions of Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan, and perhaps even (though even less likely) from Egypt, and if the Palestinian Arabs of the West Bank were also to join in the fight.
The immediately-above scenario is unlikely, true, but the Americans must have some reason to have moved one of their fleets closer to the region.
If such a concerted invasion and uprising were to happen, though, Israel could be destroyed, its population fleeing in panic.

I cannot write about all that prior to trial, for reasons of potential contempt of court etc, but one aspect of the case is that I am alleged to have claimed that, in the UK, most of the TV and Press is effectively in the hands of Jew-Zionists (as Rupert Murdoch said years ago— and he is 100% pro-Israel…).
What do you think, blog readers?
be taken to the Gazza strip to see what the Palestinians are having to deal with, each and every day of their lives. We have, in recent years been too sympathetic to Israel, which, I believe we now have an out of control far right Israeli government. I am not, however, /
Margaret Hodge is just another Jew-Zionist liar and hypocrite.
It is now immaterial. It was used by Western media outlets to whip up hatred against the Palestinian people and rally support for Israel's attack on Gaza. This is a method the UK media always employ. I'm an old woman and I've seen it all my life.

I was in New York at the time, in 1990. Those lies (blown up hugely by the Jew-Zionist mass media) were quite effective in moulding the TV narratives and the political conversation etc.
Food, fuel, medicine and water have all been cut off into the Gaza Strip, while the land itself comes under heavy bombardment.
Water cut off, food cut off, electricity and gas cut off; all other supplies cut off, and area bombing and rocketing of civilian areas, in a “ghetto” occupied by 2 million inhabitants, 600,000 of whom live in Gaza City.
Of the 2 million Palestinian Arabs in the Gaza Strip, about 1 million are under-18, and most of that million are young children.
If there was ever a war crime amounting to at least quasi-genocide, this surely must be it.

Russian President Vladimir Putin was asked if he would step in to mediate between Israel and Hamas if asked.
There goes the very last scrap of respect I still held for Emily Thornberry 🤮🤦🏻♀️ https://t.co/YeCW6nFhUE

Emily Thornberry, entitled “Labour” hog, with a part-Jew husband and a dozen buy-to-let properties. In fact, the only reason she ever joined Labour was because her well-paid lawyer/journalist/diplomat father abandoned her mother, and the mother had to move to a council property (in Surrey). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emily_Thornberry; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cedric_Thornberry.
“She was called to the Bar at Gray’s Inn and practised as a barrister specialising in human rights law from 1985 to 2005 under Michael Mansfield at Tooks Chambers.”
[Wikipedia]
“Human rights” expert; you couldn’t make it up…
As I mentioned yesterday, the “human rights” lawyers (often Jewish, though she herself is not) seem to have gone AWOL now that Israel is involved…
[Emily Thornberry, some years ago, with (in centre) Mark Regev, then Israeli Ambassador, at a Zionist dinner in London]
If, as voter, you vote Labour now, you get moneygrubbing tools of Israel such as Emily Thornberry (and Rachel Reeves, and Yvette Cooper, and Keir Starmer). Why bother?
Emily Thornberry, “human rights” lawyer (etc), who thinks it justifiable for Israel to cut off water and food (etc) from 2 million people, almost all of whom (about 96%) are non-combatants, half of whom are under-18, and hundreds of thousands of whom are young or very young children.
Douglas Murray says the celebration of the Hamas attacks shows there are "simple supporters of genocide” in the UK.
I used to wonder what Israeli Intelligence had on Murray to make him the unashamed propagandist for Israel and the Jew-Zionist lobby that he is. Now, I tend to think that he is just deeply psychologically damaged.
As for Julia Hartley-Brewer, I think (am unsure) that she is part-Jewish. She is certainly rather ignorant; I had to correct her on a couple of legal points when I still had a Twitter account (a pack of Jews managed to have me expelled in 2018). Instead of thanking me for schooling her, she tried to obfuscate, and then blocked me.
Murray is right with his “flare” metaphor, though. These events have shown what group really pulls the strings of our “democratic” political parties, and System politicians. With a tiny number of honourable exceptions, all puppets of Israel and the Jew-Zionist lobby. From Sunak to Starmer, and from Emily Thornberry to that fraudulent bastard Nigel Farage.

“Zelensky is worried because the help of Western allies is weakening The Ukrainian authorities want to get a new series of weapons in order to attack Russian positions after the unsuccessful summer counter-offensive, “ABC” writes. “Ukraine is desperate for more weapons to help its troops take over the positions of Russian units before the ground on the front turns muddy,” the newspaper said. According to the media, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived at the NATO headquarters in Brussels on Wednesday, as Kiev is becoming worried about the weakening of aid from the West, which until recently provided constant support to the Ukrainian armed forces.”

Tamworth constituency has a fairly ancient history (on various different boundaries and names), going back to the 13th Century. Its most famous MP was Sir Robert Peel, who represented the town from 1830-1850 (he was MP for three other places from 1809-1830), and who was Prime Minister 1834-1835 and 1841-1846: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Peel.
The most recent MP, the appropriately-named Chris Pincher, was rather less distinguished, having been finally forced to resign in 2023 after several years of having been accused, then eventually adjudged guilty, of having sexually molested men, including MPs, in bars.
Looking at his Wikipedia entry, it seems that Pincher only became an MP in 2010, at age 41, and had done nothing very interesting prior to that (though Wikipedia is not infallible). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Pincher.
Tamworth, on its present boundaries, was held by Labour from 1997 (when the present seat was brought into being) until 2010; Pincher failed to secure the seat in 2005, but took it in 2010 with a vote-share of 45.8%. Thereafter, his percentage vote increased at every election, peaking in 2019 at 66.3%.
At that 2019 election, Labour Co-op came in second, but poorly, on 23.7%. The other 4 candidates were very much also-rans, only the LibDems retaining their deposit (with 5.3%).
The by-election will be held on 19 October 2023, and has attracted 9 candidates: Conservative, Labour, LibDem, Green, UKIP, Reform (the latest Farage vehicle), Britain First, Monster Raving Loony, and an independent. See https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-stoke-staffordshire-66864806 for candidates’ details.
The Government is obviously deeply unpopular, and also seen as useless. However, Labour is not much liked either. There may be protest vote possibilities, but the main object may be to send a message to the Government, and I suppose that a vote for Labour is most likely to cause the Government pain, if it results in the by-election ending with a Labour win.
Hard for me to call. I have only once even driven through the town, and that was long ago. Not an area I know. Overall, it seems to me that the LibDems are too marginal here to have much chance, so it is between Con and Lab. To elect the Labour candidate would require a huge swing, but I think that it must be possible, as public feeling now stands.
If Labour can pull it off at Tamworth, the 2024 General Election will look sealed. The over-used word “seismic” comes to mind.
So we turn to Mid-Bedfordshire.
Nadine Dorries had to be almost forced out of the seat she had held since 2005, and which had provided her with a good income; both salary and very inflated expenses. She was lucky to have avoided prosecution. A very stupid, entirely uneducated, but withal cunning woman. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadine_Dorries.
The by-election, to be held on 19 October 2023, the same day as that at Tamworth, has attracted no less than 13 candidates, mostly minor or crank.
Nadine Dorries scored 59.8% at the 2019 General Election (Labour 21.7%, LibDems 12.6%).
Mid-Bedfordshire has been a Conservative Party seat since the 1920s.
This would normally be a shoo-in for the Conservative Party candidate, but several factors make that less than likely. Anger at the freeloading and fraudulent behaviour of Nadine Dorries. The general anger at the present Government. Perhaps also the fact that the Con candidate is a careerist black: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Festus_Akinbusoye.
The Conservative Party candidate is presently Police and Crime Commissioner for Bedfordshire, only came to the UK at 13 from his native Nigeria, and is a Mormon.
The opinion polls have Con and Lab neck and neck, with the LibDems not far behind. Tactical voting may play the decisive role, but does that mean anti-Con voters voting Labour, or voting LibDem?
Reform, the Farage vehicle, is polling around 7%, as is county council chairman Gareth Mackey, standing as Independent.
Very hard to call, but Labour may just have the edge.
I suppose that the other point is that Sunak may be pressured to stand down as Con Party leader if one contest is lost (or only if both are lost?).
[Update, 22 January 2024: in the end, Labour won both by-elections.

What a difference a week makes. It is standing room only for Angela Rayner at 11.50am today at the Labour Party Conference. This is in stark contrast with the half-empty hall at last week’s Conservative Party conference. pic.twitter.com/lRIMio2BNX
Whatever may be said of Labour or Angela Rayner, that tweet is surely correct. The 2024 General Election is Labour’s to lose. The Conservative Party is just dissolving. I notice that evil sociopath Chris Grayling is now not going to stand for re-election.
Having said that, I see many white-haired and grey-haired people at that Labour show. All System parties are dying, and have few young people supporting them.
This is something that in any other period in history would've made me look towards Labour at the next GE.
But I know that no matter how much cheap housing they build, I'm never going to be a priority to get one.
Exactly. A million a year coming in, and only a few hundred thousand people (mostly real Brits) leaving (for Australia, New Zealand etc) each year. Result— misery.
Actually, many of the replies to the above tweet show how unthinking the self-describing “Left” pseudo-socialists are. They really think that importing millions of backward persons has no effect on housing provision etc; either that, or they do not care. They really should be regarded and treated as outright traitors.

“According to the Turkish sources, due to dwindling stocks of Iron Dome missiles, the Israeli army is not supplying ammunition to some units armed with the complex, with the exception of three batteries in Tel Aviv, one battery in Jerusalem and one battery in Netivot in southern Israel.
The seven batteries do not supply any ammunition or fire, and they only have a limited number of anti-aircraft guided missiles in case Palestinian missiles fly towards critical targets. This explains the fact that launches on Ashkelon, Ashdod and Sderot cause virtually no opposition.”
