Angela Rayner is not only as thick as two short planks, but also was photographed together with Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer, both down on their knees in fealty to the “Black Lives Matter” nonsense.
Had a slightly disturbing dream (in fact not unusual for me), involving rather dystopian landscapes, cities, and society, as well as Vichy France, oddly enough. My “takeaway” from that was the (perhaps not hugely original, and it had in fact often come to mind in the past) that societies could be numbered 1-5 (or more) on a scale of evil and/or repression.
On that basis, a “normal” pseudo-democratic society of the 19th-21st centuries might be a “1” (some repression is almost inevitable in any civilized society of the present era) or even “0” (though it is hard to think of any), whereas the “Killing Fields” Cambodia or “Kampuchea” of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge in the late 1970s might be a “5” [see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khmer_Rouge#Life_under_the_Khmer_Rouge], as might the regime instituted by the Isis barbarians in the Middle East not very long ago [see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic_State].
No doubt it is possible that future societies might descend in behaviour to a “6” or “7”, while others might be able to maintain themselves at “0”, societies in which individual rights and the good of the collective would be not simply in balance, but in harmony, the individual freely choosing the path of conscience, and that choice never conflicting with —and in fact upholding and promoting— the goals of the collective society.
Looks as though at least one msm scribbler has started to wake up to the fact that Russia may prevail in the present conflict. Readers of this blog will know that that has always been my view, though not the writer’s further comment that that would some kind of disaster (beyond the immediate and terrible destruction and hurt caused) .
Ecce the deracinated Brit plebs, who do not care that their country, and all Europe, and the European-descended world, is sliding to destruction, so long as “their” football club (owned, probably, by a cosmopolitan Jew, and with most players black, Middle Eastern, North African, or some mixture) is doing well in some league or other; or so long as the “England” team (probably mostly non-white) is playing well in some bloody tournament somewhere in the world.
You can see how, over the past week, the EU (NWO/ZOG component) has been wheeling out sleaze stories about Marine le Pen, in order to bamboozle the French masses.
Opinion polls now have Macron several points ahead of le Pen for the second round of the French Presidential election, but about 10% are still undecided, so there is, as yet, all to play for.
I noticed ‘Lockdowns’ are being mentioned more and more. So is a new variant and subsequent lockdown in the diary? Will they use these to try and justify compulsory Digital ID or health pass?
The aim of the System is to introduce a regime of microchip “Covid passports”, leading to a microchipped population. Add to that electric cars all fitted with GPS satnav, and almost everyone with a trackable mobile telephone, and you have much of the population, and 99% of the “important” people (those with any real influence or power, or heavy money) tracked, if need be, 24/7. The Stasi of the old DDR (East Germany) would have killed for that level of surveillance.
Indeed, it may be that, years down the line, all cars will be able to have their controls overridden by a centralized system, so that a car might actually be able to be directed to deliver an unwilling person directly to the “authorities”.
The development of Canary Wharf, London, over two decades. One photo is more 'zoomed in' however, the fact remains that over the two decades, many more high rise buildings have appeared. pic.twitter.com/5f0QHksJsO
To my way of thinking, London, like most European cities, is better thought of as horizontal rather than vertical. That, however, has not been the trend of recent decades.
I can remember a time, in the late 1970s, when the whole Docklands area was still a post-industrial semi-wasteland. The foot-tunnel from Greenwich, under the river, came out into the Isle of Dogs as it used to be, an undeveloped (since the 19th/early 20thC) scene which, after dark especially, was both sinister and interesting. Pubs, some ugly and tacked onto 20thC council housing, a few other pubs quirky and picturesque, those latter very old and far predating the Victorian docks and dock buildings.
In 1979, there was no Canary Wharf, no expanses of new expensive housing, no Docklands Light Railway and, further afield to the east, no London City Airport.
Well, this week I again beat political journalist John Rentoul. I scored 6/10, where he managed only 3/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 6, 7, and 8.
As I predicted, the Rwanda “get shot of migrant-invaders” plan, absurd though it is (I can think of better ways), has cooked Labour’s goose for now, despite the cost-of-living crisis etc. For one thing, few voters have any confidence in the ability of Jew-lobby puppet Keir Starmer to reduce tax and/or retail prices.
I was always slightly mocking of Corbyn, but at least he was somewhat anti-Zionist, though —fatally— still paying lip-service to the Jewish lobby by his “me-too” behaviour in support of their “holocaust” farrago.
In the end, Corbyn was just too weak, especially in his failure to rid Labour entirely of Jewish and/or Zionist influence.
Having said that, recent by-elections prove that Labour under Starmer is appealing even less than did Corbyn to most voters. Yes, opinion polls have recently been favourable to Labour, but that can change (and already has), like the English weather.
No doubt there will be much excitement if the upcoming local elections give Labour hundreds more council seats. Almost meaningless (even if it happens). One would imagine that the pathetically-poor performance of the “Conservative” Government would wipe it out politically. That does not happen because Labour is perceived as a hypocritical and dishonest nullity.
I see no likelihood of a Starmer-led Labour victory at a general election, despite Boris-idiot leading an almost Kafka-esque “government”.

Alison Chabloz
Blog readers will be aware that persecuted satirist and singer-songwriter Alison Chabloz was sentenced to 22 weeks of imprisonment last Thursday (14 April 2022).
The conviction and/or sentence is likely to be appealed, but for the present, Alison is in prison, notionally until the expiry of 11 weeks, i.e. 30 June 2022.
Alison’s address and Prisoner Number is now confirmed as below:
Alison Chabloz A6478EK
HMP Bronzefield,
Woodthorpe Rd,
Ashford
TW15 3JZ.
Anyone who wishes to send postcards, letters, books [new books only, softback only, preferably from online booksellers, but not from Amazon] etc, can send them to the above address.
Small sums of money can also be sent to Alison via the official government system: see https://www.gov.uk/send-prisoner-money. The date of birth of the prisoner is required; Alison’s date of birth is 4 April 1964.
“The war on the West: DOUGLAS MURRAY examines how Western civilisation and all its astonishing achievements in culture, science, medicine and free thinking are being erased from history as the product of ‘dead white males’.”
“I have come to the conclusion that the era we live in is defined by one thing above all — a civilisational shift that is rocking the deep underpinnings of our societies because it is a war on everything in those societies.“
“There are many facets to this war on the West. It is carried out across the media and airwaves, and throughout the education system, from as early as preschool.“
“It is rife within the wider culture, where all major cultural institutions are either coming under pressure or actually volunteering to distance themselves from their own past.”
[Douglas Murray in the Daily Mail].
All very true, but what Douglas Murray fails to point out is that behind the blacks, “browns” and indeed some whites, guilty of the above stands, overall, the Jew (meaning Jewish-Zionist influence and power).
Jews (meaning certain Jews, influential Jews, not the whole 250,000+ in the UK and an even greater number in France) are behind much, arguably most, of the erosion of decent civilized behaviour in the declining Western cultures. We see it in the world of business and finance, and banking, we see it in academia and publishing; we see it in the legal professions (now pretty much taken over, certainly in the UK), and we see it, a fortiori, in the mass media and its recent development, Internet media, including social media.
Those trends are wider than simply a result of Jewish or Jewish-Zionist influence, but that influence is fundamental, and has intensified since about 1989.
Ultimately, the aim is ZOG (Zionist Occupation Government), leading across the Western world to NWO (the New World Order) via, inter alia, the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan implementation: see http://adam.curry.com/art/1543753587_mkXBrvrY.html.
Non-whites ferried and funnelled into Europe, with the idea being that, over time, they will create a brown semi-European race in Europe, to be controlled by ZOG and NWO rulers, tribes, and castes.

I have no idea whether there is anything in the “chemtrails” theory, but over the years I have started to wonder whether there is a programme to “sedate” the population in some way. Looking back at the 1970s, 1980s, and then looking at British people today, those around today seem almost lobotomized in some ways. The “panicdemic” police state of 2020-2021 brought that out fairly clearly.
Yes, it’s a public relations exercise, mostly, but enough to cook Labour’s goose. Obviously, I myself oppose both Con and Lab, two sides of the same System coin.
Nothing shows up the bankruptcy of the self-describing “Left” in the UK as much as the saga of Harry and the Royal Mulatta.
The old-style socialists wanted rid of royalty; this lot (not socialists, sometimes pseudo-socialists) want Harry, aka the Royal Cuck, to be even more privileged than he already is, just because he has married a non-white or, more accurately, a half-caste.
As for the Royal Mulatta, the self-describing “Left” shriek that she is a “princess“, and so entitled to respect on that basis!
It is just like the way the self-describing “Left” looks upon Twitter etc, which they say should be allowed to censor and cancel people at will because Twitter and other such platforms are “private enterprises”…
Shock for Emmanuel Macron as new poll predicts Marine Le Pen could sneak a surprise victory in French election. I, for one, would be glad to see the back of him. https://t.co/XbrZyoAJE3@MailOnline
The System across Europe, and especially EU-Europe, is so corrupt and fake that one almost gives up hope at times, but if Marine le Pen can get to the Presidency of France, there might be hope for a real “new order” in European diplomacy and politics, for a halt to the crazed and headlong rush to war with Russia, and indeed for a rapprochement with Russia.
Yes, Marine le Pen has her faults, is by no means sufficiently “anti-Semitic” etc, but look at the alternative! I blogged about Macron’s odd background and political career (the latter suffused with Jewish corruption) a few years ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/09/on-recent-events-in-france/.

I am not much of a car buff. In my mid/late teens I rode first a Vespa scooter (max speed about 55 mph), and then a 250cc Suzuki motorbike (max speed 108 mph, accomplished one late evening on the then —1976— almost empty M23, from Brighton to Surrey), but only had a licence to drive a car from the age of 42, and then only because I was living on a Caribbean island where there were virtually no taxis, and no public transport.
I have now held a UK licence for about 20 years, with almost no problem: a couple of small accidents —not my fault, in my opinion— and a couple of speeding tickets, the speeding offences both in 2005 (40 mph in a 30 mph area, and 97 mph on a 70 mph road).
Make that three if you include getting caught by a motorbike cop in Normandy in 2007 (going about 95 mph on a ~66 mph dual carriageway road). On-the-spot fine.
A few times, at about 2 or 3 in the morning, on empty pay-autoroutes in Northern France, I cruised at up to 130 mph in my then car (a Volvo), but rarely saw another vehicle, and was never bothered by the police.
I usually potter around my local district at about 30 mph now, so would have no use for the Aston Martin Valhalla, which can apparently reach speeds of up to 217 mph.
Actually, cars such as the Valhalla are symptoms of a wider pointlessness in world —and especially Western— society. A car that can go 217 mph, yet which will mostly be seen crawling at 5 mph in the congested traffic of central London or Monte Carlo, or along the roads of Bel-Air at 20 mph, and probably driven by a 20-year-old Gulf Arab.

The intentions are certainly not “worthy“, but yet another expression of Jewish tribal supremacism. If “they” want a so-called “memorial” (to events which may or, more likely, may not have occurred, or at least not occurred as narrated, nearly a century ago, and in another part of Europe, and which had nothing to do with Britain anyway) then let “them” put it on a small artificial “Boris island” in the Thames Estuary. Come to that, put “Boris” on it as well.
One wonders why the Russians have not broken up the rail system in Ukraine. Is it because they want as many Ukrainians as possible to flee westward?
The only way Russia can now achieve anything looking like an overall victory is to flood Ukraine with hundreds of thousands of troops, and then strike at Kiev, in particular, with its best in-theatre units.
The present Russian tactics, of making almost random missile or other attacks on urban targets here and there, are not only giving Russia a terrible reputation across the world, but not achieving anything from a military point of view. They seem little more than malicious, and are certainly being presented that way by the Kiev regime and generally in the Western msm, on social media etc.
If Putin does not get a grip, Russia itself will eventually implode.
Yes, I see the opinion polls saying that 60% or 70% or more of Russians “support” the invasion and war, but even if so, that is volatile; it can change.
In my own lifetime, I have seen not only governments but whole regimes of society, whole states, implode. The Soviet Union itself, which looked unassailable even a few years before it collapsed; the DDR (East Germany), which I visited only a year before it collapsed and then ceased to exist; Rhodesia, where I was in 1977, and which gave up its struggle only two years later to become yet another corrupt and shambolic black-ruled failed state (Zimbabwe); South Africa; Iran. Others, too.
Perhaps Putin’s Russia will go the same way as its predecessor, the Soviet Union, and just fall apart internally; the EU and West generally might do the same before too long.

Once again, the persecution and prosecution of Alison Chabloz was instigated by “the usual suspects”, primarily the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, [“CAA”] who have publicly admitted targeting Alison Chabloz over a period of (now) about 6 years, at least.
It seems that Alison is now on bail, pending a sentencing hearing next Thursday afternoon.

Strange.

Charles Dickens is fortunate that he is dead; were he still alive, no doubt “they” would come after him as well, and he might also be sharing the dock with, among others, Shakespeare, Wagner, Chopin, Schumann, Hilaire Belloc, G.K.

Listen to that hysteric! For example, Madagascar’s problems are, says she, caused by “climate change”, not the fact that countries like Madagascar are inhabited by backward and often totally useless people, some of whom are the corrupt, shambolic, and useless “governments” of such failed “states”.

I usually try to steer clear of Scottish politics, but the madness of it at least equals anything seen south of Hadrian’s Wall.
The Scottish Labour Party is pretty much dead on its feet. Only 1 MP out of a possible 59 at Westminster, and 22 MSPs out of a possible 129 at Holyrood. Even in local government, Labour has bombed, now holding only 249 out of 1227 local council seats in Scotland. The contrast with Scottish Labour’s historical high points is stark.
Labour had 56 out of 72 Scottish MPs 1997-2005, and historically held at least 30 Scottish seats at Westminster. In fact, the present position is its worst ever— even in 1910, in its first General Election, it scored 2 MPs: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_Labour#House_of_Commons.
Actually, in terms of the popular vote, Scottish Labour’s best performance was in 1966 (49.8%), and its worst was in 2019, at 18.6%, less precipitous a fall than in terms of seats, but that’s First Past The Post voting for you.
In the Scottish Parliament, there has been a steady decline in Scottish Labour seats, from 56 out of 129 in 1999, to 22 out of 129 in 2021. Scottish Labour has not been even in coalition government in Scotland since 2007.
In the now-irrelevant European elections, Scottish Labour, which once had 7 out of 8 Scottish seats in the European Parliament, declined to flat zero (out of 6) by 2019 (9.3% of the popular vote).
Incidentally, Scottish Labour is now headed by a Glasgow-born Pakistani, who apparently has a £5M share in a family grocery business: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anas_Sarwar.
Scottish Labour’s problem is at one with that of UK Labour generally— the disappearance of the industrial proletariat. In addition to that, Labour ground has been taken by the faux-nationalist and sort-of social-democratic SNP.

My Anglo-Russian girlfriend in the 1980s, seven years older than me, once told me about the time when, as a young (about 19-y-o) student, she was sent from the UK (in or about 1969) to see her relatives in Leningrad (those who, unlike her mother and others, had not fled as children from the Bolshevik revolution, or coup d’etat, in late 1917), to improve her spoken Russian (her degree course was in Russian and French).
The assembled Russian aunts, uncles etc asked what she did in her leisure time at Cambridge University. She said that she had a part-time job in a pub, in order to socialize, and to make a little extra money at the same time.
So far so good, except that (her colloquial Russian still being rudimentary despite her background and university studies) she translated “pub” (ie “public house”) as “publichny dom“, which is literally “public house”, but in Russian is actually the colloquial term for a brothel, or bordello.
There ensued a shocked silence, then questions from her aunts and uncles, such as “does your mother know?!” (“Oh, yes, my parents both said that it would be good for me to do that work, and meet people from various walks of life”) and “do other girls at the University do it?” (“Oh, yes, many do…a way to make some money and enjoy some evenings, and not difficult once you get used to it” etc…).
Eventually, one of her uncles realized that the problem was linguistic, not her morals or the decadence of Western society…

I predicted something like this many years ago. There is really little difference between a late-term foetus and a young baby. Many people are born prematurely, are usually completely healthy, and some go on to to be of world-historic significance (historically, St. Paul, for one). A foetus is dependent upon its mother, but a baby (human) is also completely dependent, unable to live independently. In fact, it is an irrefutable fact that a human child is only gradually less dependent; it takes years.
The evil displayed in that proposed Californian legislation is a sign of the times. Many of the most significant (and often negative) cultural manifestations affecting Europe, and other parts of the world, have emerged over the past century from California.
The fact that the unvaccinated are NOT dying in droves as they predicted they would, and are instead healthy and thriving while the triple vaccinated continue to get sick, is not being talked about enough.
I have met many American lawyers, had dealings with quite a few, and also seen some in action in both state courts (in New York) and Federal courts (in New York and New Jersey). A few are highly intelligent; most are not. As for advocacy, most are rock-bottom.

The UK is in a similar position. The Russian invasion of Ukraine is now being set up as the fall guy for other causative factors in UK economic decline. The “Covid” measures taken weakened both the economy generally and the currency in particular. The massive (and massively defrauded) money giveaways, “furlough” payments, business “loans”, “Eat Out To Help Out”, £40 billion or more on the shambolic and completely useless “Test and Trace” system. Etc.
Now we see (what a shock…) that inflation is going to rise to ?7%, ?8%, or higher, within a year. We see that basic foodstuffs such as bread may double in price (bread price increase one of the few things genuinely the result of the Ukraine situation), and we have seen, already, petrol and diesel increasing hugely in price at the retail pumps.
Let’s be clear: the real economic villains here are not “Covid”, and not the Russian invasion, but the UK and other Western responses to those challenges.
Sanctions on Russia are a double-edged sword. They hit the UK as much as they hit Russia. Western Europe needs Russian gas, oil, and wheat. By refusing to buy most of Russia’s products, and by refusing to sell to Russia our products, we damage the lives and living standards of our own people, without —note this— helping the Ukrainians at all.
Unlike that lady there, I would not want to rejoin the EU, which may not even exist for much longer, but her basic point is right. This is an appallingly poor government, and the sad thing for the British people is that Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer’s fake “Opposition” is at least as hopeless.
There does not exist a political party for the British, and particularly English, people.
Ukraine war
[state of play as of 10/11 March 2022; map by Sky News]
As I predicted from the start, the Russian forces are not trying to occupy Western Ukraine (west of the Dnieper), except for the Black Sea littoral, and around Kiev.
It may be that they hope to take Odessa first (before Kiev) now. That would free forces to strike north towards Kiev, supplies and fuel permitting. Once the battle for Mariupol is finished, those forces will probably drive west towards the Dnieper.
Once Kharkov is taken, those forces will also drive west, probably towards Kiev (which is on the Dnieper river).
As for the reports that Syrians are being recruited as mercenaries by Putin; if true, that is a very negative move in terms of public relations. More non-Europeans in Europe…
According to the Daily Mail, this (below) is the latest on the ground:
Kiev is being encircled, gradually. As previously blogged, the tactics of this war, for all the modern arms in use, would be recognizable by the likes of El Cid or Richard the Lionheart— siege laid to cities, and then bombardment of the gradually starving defenders.
It is clear that it is only a matter of time before the entire Black Sea coast, with all ports (including Odessa) is under Russian control.
I have no idea where the main Ukrainian Army actually is. Possibly concentrated in the South East and around Kiev, but that is just a guess.
If the Russians succeed in taking all major cities excluding Lvov (i.e. Kiev, Kharkov, Odessa, Dnipro [Dnepropetrovsk], Zaporozhye, Donetsk, and a few others almost as populous), then the war will change its character, and Russia will be in an easier position, fighting mainly in open country, a situation that will play to Russian strengths in armour, in the air, and in numbers.
In that event, and on those premises, the question for Russia will become one of whether it tries to take over the entire territory of the Ukraine, or whether it de facto allows the western part to exist as a quasi-rebel entity or hostile entity, with some kind of ragged border between that and the Russian-controlled east and south.
and again, more or less the same in the UK. “And none dare call it conspiracy“…

The LibDems are now dependent on squeezing in at elections in places where the Conservative Party (usually) will win if LibDem and Labour voters do not vote tactically, but where the LibDems can win if Labour voters decide to vote tactically.
The results in general elections show the history: a peak in 2005 (62 MPs out of 646), under now-deceased alcoholic multikulti zealot Charles Kennedy, reducing slightly in 2010 (57 out of 650), collapsing in 2015 (8 out of 650) after the Con Coalition, then rising in 2017 to 12 out of 650; the 2019 result brought only 11 MPs out of 650.
In fact, FPTP voting never shows the full picture. In 2015, the LibDem collapse (from 57 MPs to 8) was not fully reflected in the popular vote (a reduction from 6,836,248 votes to 2,415,862, a far less-steep fall.
The decline in LibDem fortunes at Westminster has been mirrored in the devolved legislatures of Scotland and Wales. Scotland: 17 out of 129 MSPs in 1999, but only 4 out of 129 now. Wales: 6 out of 60 members in 1999, but only 1 out of 60 now.
All that having been said, I cannot see the LibDems doing other than continuing to decline. LibDemmery is a tradition which far predates the LibDem party, and goes back to the old Liberal Party, to the days when Liberals became Prime Ministers, before the First World War. Long gone days; the days of LibDem MPs may also be nearing their end.
After a conspiratorial campaign by a pack of Zionist Jews connected with the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism [“CAA”], I was finally expelled from Twitter in 2018. Nick Griffin is still just about there, but only just. His name cannot be searched for, and Twitter has restricted his content. It cannot be long before his Twitter account goes entirely (and I suspect that it has only been allowed to keep going this long so that State and Zionist organizations can see who interacts with it etc).

We in the UK, and across much of “the West”, are not getting accurate news or, rather, accurate comment. It seems clear to me that the invasion is slowly going Russia’s way, as far as the securing of main objectives is concerned .
Some hotheaded or biased talking heads and scribblers in the UK and USA are shouting for a “no-fly zone”, and suggesting that that would not necessarily mean war with Russia. Cloud-cuckoo land. It would. Others are suggesting that aerial warfare between NATO and Russia would not lead to a general war. It would. Yet others are suggesting that even a war with Russia would not necessarily be nuclear. It would.
Staff colleges in the West undertook exercises during the Cold War to see whether tactical (“battlefield”) nuclear weapons could be used without triggering an all-out strategic nuclear exchange, or whether such an exchange could be halted in its early stages. In all cases, the exercises ended with both sides using all their nuclear missiles.
The present madness is being stoked, as in 1939, by the Jewish-Zionist element in the USA and UK.
Madness? What else is it, when many brainwashed people are considering a major European war, or even nuclear war, acceptable, just because Russia has invaded a country which, until 1991, was effectively part of its own territory, with which country or territory the UK is not allied, and never has been.

I had completely forgotten about the by-election at Birmingham Erdington, occasioned by the unexpected death of the sitting MP, Jack Dromey [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Dromey] from sudden heart failure.
Even in the 1979 General Election that swept Margaret Thatcher to power, Labour held on in the constituency by a couple of points (46% to the Conservative’s 44.5%).
Labour’s highest point was in 1945 (60.8%), but it scored 58.8% in the Tony Blair “landslide” of 1997. Labour did almost as well (58%) in 2017, at a time when Jeremy Corbyn was Labour leader.
Labour’s vote share in 2019 fell back to 50.3%, and in the recent by-election rose to 55.5%.
The Conservative Party peaked, scoring 68.1%, in 1931, but fell back, apparently terminally, after Labour won the seat in 1945. The lowest point was reached in 2005 (22.8%). Since then, the Conservative vote has been in the 30-40% range (38.4% in 2017, 40.1% in 2019, and 36.3% in this by-election).
The by-election attracted 12 candidates, the highest number in the history of the constituency. but apart from the two main System parties, none retained the deposit. The Trade Union and Socialist Coalition [TUSC] topped the list at 2.1%.
Interesting to see the Greens and LibDems doing badly: Greens 1.4%, their worst result in the constituency since they first stood, in 2015.
The LibDems have pegged out, at least in this constituency. In the 2010 days of Cleggmania, they scored 16.2%. By 2015, after the Con Coalition, the same LibDem candidate could only manage 2.8%. That fell back further to 2% in 2017, recovered slightly to 3.7% in 2019, but fell again, disastrously, to a mere 1% in this by-election.
There were no social-national candidates, though the pseudo-nationalist “alt-Right” set-up, Reform UK (the reincarnation of Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party), achieved 1.7% (4th place).
Overall, my view is that the by-election shows a lack of enthusiasm on the part of the electorate. The turnout was pitiful, a mere 27% (nearly half of that in 2019, and less than half of the 2017 turnout). Only just over a quarter of those eligible bothered to vote.
The Labour vote-share rose slightly, the Conservatives’ fell back slightly. The real winner was apathy or, perhaps, disgusted cold-shouldering of a fake “democracy”.
Incidentally (?), demographics may account for part of the result, in that the new MP is a West Indian, a Labour councillor and former NHS nurse, aged somewhere in her early sixties, who has called for a black uprising in the UK:
“Near the end of the 2022 by election campaign, remarks made by Hamilton in 2015 were uncovered by GB News where she suggested she was torn between a democratic vote and an uprising to enable black people to get what “we really deserve in this country”.[4] The comments led to calls from some Conservative MPs for her to be suspended by the Labour Party, who responded saying the remarks were taken out of context.[5]” [Wikipedia].
As I have repeatedly blogged, the Labour Party core vote is now the “blacks and browns” and/or the public service workers. That is now being reflected, increasingly, in Labour Party MPs too. Look at this one, a West Indian woman who is or was an NHS nurse.
In fact, the new MP, though increasingly typical of the Labour Party, is not typical of the constituency: “The constituency is predominantly white working class and very deprived.” [Wikipedia].
I do not see this result as betokening a Labour Party revival under Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer. Unimpressive.
[Paulette Hamilton, the new MP for Birmingham Erdington]
Ukraine
As far as can be gleaned from the msm, Russia’s glacial offensive is finally starting to take control of some major locations, such as the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, which supplies a quarter of the electricity in Ukraine.
Slowly, the odds are moving in Russia’s favour. Cities are starting to be taken, albeit at a terrible cost in suffering and damage; strategic targets such as power plants are being captured. Food has pretty much run out in those cities east of the Dnieper still controlled by the Kiev regime.
I had not expected the Zelensky regime to last this long. However, the taking of Kiev, which has been delayed (perhaps deliberately, so that many of its inhabitants can flee, which must help the Russian side of this conflict), will probably soon happen. When it does, Zelensky and his cabal will flee, or be captured (or killed).
If Zelensky et al flee to Lvov, it raises the question (noted by me in past weeks) of whether Putin will try to take over the western two thirds of Ukraine as well. I had assumed not, thinking that any Lvov government would be weak, economically strapped, and unable to cause Putin many problems, even if recognized by the Western allies as the “legitimate” government of the whole of Ukraine de jure, even if a puppet government based in Kiev were to rule a third, perhaps nearly a half, of Ukraine, de facto.
Now, I am not so sure. Any Lvov government headed by Zelensky or his group would now be supplied with advanced weaponry by the Western allies. There would be a long and vulnerable front splitting Ukraine. The Lvov regime forces would be more motivated than those of the Russian occupation in the east.
On those premises, Putin might eventually decide to go for broke, and try to occupy, or at least devastate, the rest of Ukraine. He may calculate that he has little to lose. After all, Russia’s reputation in the world has (via the biased reportage of the Western msm, so be it) already now been trashed, and Russia’s stock, both metaphorically and literally, could scarcely fall any lower.
Historical note
“[William] Douglas-Home was assigned to the 7th Battalion of the Buffs, which was converted to tanks as the 141st Regiment, Royal Armoured Corps. In the Normandy campaign, the 141st Regiment was assigned to I Corps (a British formation) within the First Canadian Army. In August, First Canadian Army was directed to mop up the German forces cut off and trapped in various seaside ports in Normandy and Pas de Calais. In the first week of September 1944, the Allies moved against the port of Le Havre. A German garrison under Colonel Hermann-Eberhard Wildermuth was dug in on the hill overlooking the city. Wildermuth had been ordered by Hitler to defend Fortress Le Havre to the last man, and not to surrender.
When the Allied forces invested the city in advance of the planned aerial bombardment and subsequent assault, Wildermuth asked the British commander if the French civilians could be evacuated from the city, but that request was refused. Lieutenant (acting Captain) Douglas-Home was near Le Havre, awaiting the completion of the aerial bombardment. He was to serve as a liaison officer in Operation Astonia, the Allied attack on Le Havre. On the second day after the aerial bombardment had started, he learned of the German request to evacuate the civilians and the Allied refusal. The consequences of the bombardment were apparent to the waiting Allied forces and Douglas-Home refused to participate in the attack. He gave two reasons:
The unconditional surrender policy, which he thought compelled the enemy to fight to the end. The refusal of civilian evacuation was morally unacceptable to him. which created a moral obligation for Douglas-Home and he declined to participate...
The aerial bombardment of Le Havre lasted four nights, killed over 2,000French civilians, 19 German soldiers and levelled the city. The Germans surrendered after two-days’ fighting and I Corps moved on to Boulogne, which was also subjected to a heavy aerial bombardment. At that time Douglas-Home, who had been placed under supervision (he did not consider himself at that time to have been “arrested”) wrote to the Maidenhead Advertiser and the publication of his letter in the newspaper prompted his formal arrest and detention.
Douglas-Home was charged at a Field General Court Martial held on 4 October 1944 that, when on active service, he disobeyed a lawful command given by his superior officer (contrary to Section 9 (2) of the Army Act 1881). He conducted his own defence. Regrettably neither the Field Court Martial nor Douglas-Home had a copy of the new edition of the Manual of Military Law, which had been prepared and published in April 1944 but not distributed to the troops in Normandy. Prior to April 1944 a British soldier accused of refusing to obey an order had no defence available that the order was illegal. Even had that been brought to the Court-Martial’s attention, the grounds of objection by Douglas-Home for refusing to obey Colonel Waddell’s order were rejected as he had to admit that the order, to act as a liaison officer, was not illegal. His argument, that he was being required to take part in an event which was morally indefensible, fell on deaf ears. He was convicted, and sentenced to be cashiered and to serve one year’s imprisonment with hard labour. The proceedings lasted two hours”.”
[Wikipedia]
Douglas-Home, later a playwright, was also the younger brother of the British Prime Minister of the early 1960s, Alec Douglas-Home.
So, there we have it. British invaders killed 2,000 French civilians in Le Havre (and another 3,000 in Caen, and many elsewhere). That is without even counting the perhaps 800,000 German civilians killed in 1939-45 by Allied bombing alone.
As for the Americans, both in WW2 and up to the present time, we need not even go there…

[invasion of Ukraine: apparent state of play as of yesterday, 3 March 2022]
As previously blogged, Russia has to control the Black Sea littoral. That must put the focus on Odessa. In fact, about 25%-30% of the population there is Russian, though I daresay that they will be keeping their heads down.
At the same time, the most important Russian objective, psychologically, must be Kiev, even if the Zelensky regime flees to Lvov.
Hitler’s biggest mistake or failure on the Eastern Front in the Second World War was to try to take Moscow, Leningrad, and the Ukraine, simultaneously, in 1941. The better idea would have been first of all to decapitate the Soviet regime by an all-out drive on Moscow.
In 1941, the German advance came within a relatively few miles of Moscow. In fact, the point of furthest advance, at Khimki, is now Moscow outer suburbia.
I recall, on my first visit there, in 1993, being astonished at passing the “tank trap” memorial now there, en route from the old Sheremetyevo airport into Moscow, and seeing how close it was to the city. I think that my driver arrived at or near the Kremlin only about 20 minutes after we passed that memorial.
Moscow in 1941 was in a state of panic for days, as the Germans advanced. High-ranking officials fled with their families. Many have said that, had the Germans been able to land even a modest parachute force in those days, the Soviet regime would have crumbled. It was never to be.
The Russians must take Kiev while the preponderance of military force is on their side. They will then be able to link up with forces near Dnipro (former Dnepropetrovsk) along the river Dnieper. If they can do that, then all of Ukraine east of the Dnieper will fall.

Why *now*? In middle of Russian crisis?
He was appointed defence secretary in Nov 2017 at exact moment, FBI revealed its Trump-Russia investigation began in London.
Sachs’ cretinous plan for “capitalism in 100 days” in early 1990s Russia killed, by its implementation (in part) and also by its influence, millions of Russians and, by extension, Ukrainians, via starvation and by lack of care and services. Does that count as a “holocaust”?
In fact, most of the Washington neocons were Jews. Not only that, but many, perhaps most, of those (from both Soviet and other backgrounds) who profited from Russian misery under Yeltsin were Jews.
I can understand why Hitchens feels unable to mention the Jewish background of most of the guilty: for one thing, he is himself partly-Jewish; for another, he would lose his Mail on Sunday column immediately, so infested has the UK msm become.
Comments about Ukraine
“I’m told I am supporting the invasion by saying we provoked it. But if I warn a child that, if he annoys a wasp, it will sting him, am I supporting the wasp?“[Peter Hitchens in The Mail on Sunday].
“And now here we are again, in a moralising frenzy. The BBC, which insisted on strict neutrality between Britain and Argentina in its coverage of the Falklands War, flings itself into an ignorant and one-sided coverage of the Ukraine crisis.
A leading presenter proclaims, from a city he weirdly calls ‘Kyeeeev’, that Ukraine is a ‘European democracy’, in which case he is very easily satisfied.
As my old friend Edward Lucas, no friend of Russia, put it in the Daily Mail yesterday, Ukraine is a country where ‘oligarchs run media empires, with politicians and officials on the payroll.
The judicial system is a festering mess where arrests, prosecutions and verdicts are used as score-settlers between political and commercial rivals.
Senior positions are bought and sold. Healthcare and education are plagued by kickbacks. The security service, the SBU, is infested with intrigue and sleaze – and penetrated by Russian agents of influence’.
Justified outrage over the terrible harvest of war would be more convincing if we had paid more attention to the hundreds of civilian casualties, many of them inflicted by Ukrainian armed forces, in and near the breakaway regions in the country’s East.
“It would also be more convincing if our political and media establishment had not supported the Nato bombing of Belgrade in 1999 (with major civilian casualties); the crazy invasion of Iraq in 2003; and the forgotten Nato bombing of Libya, also with its toll of dismembered children killed in supposed ‘surgical strikes’.”
[Peter Hitchens in The Mail on Sunday].
NATO had outlived its original usefulness by the time the Soviet Union finally disappeared in 1991, but the “New World Order” [NWO] cabals were not going to let that happen.
“I am accused of treachery, or of being an apologist for Russia, for urging a different view on this crisis. Surely this is how dissent is treated in dictatorships.
I write this as a British patriot. How was it in our interests to provoke a war we cannot win, and cannot even fight, against a country which is not, in fact, our enemy?” [Peter Hitchens in The Mail on Sunday]
Yet half-Jew MP Tom Tugendhat would have Peter Hitchens, and others who are against this crazy demonization of Russia, to be charged with treason! He has urged amendment to the Treason Act, no less.
How can Tugendhat pretend that Britain is at war with Russia? If it were, Tugendhat would no longer exist, neither would the House of Commons, or London. Think about that, you evil idiot.
Still, a significant NWO/ZOG drone, who wants to be Leader of the Conservative Party, and Prime Minister. I hope that that unpleasant would-be dictator never achieves his careerist goal.
By the way, part-Jew Tugendhat wants to expel all Russians from the UK; he has explicitly said so. I have a different idea about who should be expelled…
I see that the Tugendhat family emerged, in modern times, from the town formerly called Bielitz, in Silesia, now called Bielsko-Biala, and within Polish territory. I visited that town twice in 1988 (summer and winter) and stayed there for a number of weeks.

Feeble Labour
The (((occupied))) Labour Party under Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer becomes ever more feeble. As it has done ever since Starmer replaced Corbyn after the 2019 General Election, all it can say about the Ukraine policy of the Boris-idiot government is “me too!” or “me too! but do it more harshly and more efficiently!“
I happened to see ridiculous creature David Lammy on a news broadcast, wanting Ukrainian refugees to enter the UK. In fact, I have little objection to that, in principle. After all, they are white Europeans. Also, they are at least genuine refugees, and are only fleeing by reason of large-scale dislocation, of which they are “innocent” victims.
The devil is in the detail, in the numbers, bearing in mind how stressed and indeed swamped the UK’s services and infrastructure already are, and how crowded the UK now is.
Ukraine: Numbers are constantly being updated but the latest count of refugee arrivals in neighbouring countries now exceeds 200,000. We aim to have another update later today.

I do not agree entirely with that. The offensive has been far too sluggish. It should have started weeks ago, and been prosecuted with more elan.
Stalin would already have shot a few generals by now.
What was required was a swift, overwhelming and mighty Blitzkrieg to secure all strategic objectives and, exactly by so doing, to keep the civilian population from harm.

The caption on the left is in Russian and says: “there is your enemy— the Khokhol (or Kakhlak)” (derogatory term for Ukrainian), with Jew pointing.
The righthand caption says, in Ukrainian, “there is your enemy— the Moskal” (derogatory term for Russian), with Jew pointing.
The explanation below the cartoon refers to the Russians and Ukrainians being played off against each other.
I do not necessarily “endorse” the cartoon, but it indicates what some people in that part of the world think. It is true that the Ukraine/Kiev regime is basically Jewish, and that the Putin government is at least strongly influenced by Jewish and Israeli interests.
I remember when that happened. The Ukrainian regime tried to deprive the inhabitants of Crimea (95% of whom are Russian) of water. The Russians in Southern Russia had to divert water to Crimea from elsewhere.
I feel sorry for ppl in Ukraine , but the hypocrisy from the govt and media of this issue vis a vis why ppl went to Afghanistan, Bosnia etc shows they have learnt nothing . It’s just total double standards.
The Kiev regime has issued an open invitation to any and all foreign adventurers, freebooters, and criminals, to present themselves at the border of the Ukraine and be issued with a weapon and (I presume) ammunition, no questions asked. What could possibly go wrong?
If any of those volunteers are captured in the field, and under arms, they may well end up getting shot.

Zelensky may agree to talks, but if Putin agrees, it will be only to try to placate the West. Unless his forces get totally bogged down, he has no incentive to talk seriously. The Ukrainians are running out of fuel, ammo, food. Russian forces are in, though not yet controlling, Kiev, Kharkov etc.

The slide into confrontation with Russia has been swift. It is reminiscent, though it has progressed quicker, of the situation in Afghanistan in the early 1980s. Supply of weapons in order to “help” the invaded country. Look what happened there. This is even more likely to lead to a general conflagration.
Supplying weapons to the Kiev regime will not help the people of Ukraine. It will deepen the conflict.
Germany is supplying about 1,500 ground-to-air missiles to the Kiev regime. That is not far removed from being a direct participant in a war.
The Russian invasion has been badly-handled. Instead of a swift and overwhelming assault, particularly on Kiev, it is developing into a stagnant battle of attrition.
Russia now has no choice but to use more force in order to secure its objectives. More force. More death and destruction. More harm.
There is something fated about all this. What will the end be, either soon or in 5-10 years’ time? Massive warfare all across Europe? Nuclear war? The feeling is not optimistic.
“A primary school worker and her boyfriend encouraged a two-year-old to kill badgers and foxes during a barbaric family day out, a court heard.

Her boyfriend, Grant Leigh Jnr, 30, of the same address, was also found guilty, reports Manchester Evening News.
“Inquiries revealed she had been joined on the barbaric family expedition by her boyfriend and his ex-huntsman father, Grant Leigh Snr, 52, of Marler Road in Hyde, Tameside.”
I believe that a 6-month maximum still applies unless the dogs were injured (which raises the maximum to 5 years, the crimes having happened before 2021).
I would not be surprised if the bitch featured in the report gets off lightly because of the mere fact that she has children (who may well grow up to be as bad as the rest of the “family”).
The courts cannot at present punish this sort of depraved and scarcely-human trash with sufficient severity. The prospect of being sentenced soon does not seem to have wiped the smirk off the evil woman defendant’s face…
I think that the newspaper should have published the exact addresses of the defendants in this case.
The above-reported-on is a very nasty series of crimes despite the fact that the government itself, in the past decade, has wrongfully killed untold thousands of badgers in order to placate the farming lobby.
I am not at all a “flogger and hanger” but the misplaced leniency shown in that report is just a bad joke. Where is the justice for the victim? I bet that someone who, for example, said something mildly “anti-Semitic”, would get a far heavier sentence (which, after all, would hardly be difficult).
Incidentally, the Daily Mail really ought to employ competent sub-editors, or at least a few literate reporters (I note that the semi-literate scribbler who penned the above report is one “Danyal Hussain”, which may explain the poor English).

Without his unmerited titles and monies, “Prince” Harry would be merely a mildly mentally-disturbed nobody. He has nothing useful to say (let alone to do). Shut up.
Other pollsters are broadly in the same area at present, with a slight decrease in the Labour lead over the past couple of weeks.
It is fairly clear to me that, if the misnamed Conservative Party can ditch “Boris”, and if they can then find someone not immediately obviously an idiot to replace him, the two main System parties will be near parity before very long; that suits Con rather than Lab in terms of potential Westminster seats.
Recent local council by-elections continue to show a decrease in the Labour vote-share (with a few exceptions) even where Labour has won the seat in question.
The British (especially English) dilemma remains: if, as voter, you dislike, distrust or despise both main System parties, where do you go? What can you do?
My own political stance is rather different, both in terms of orientation and strategy. I cannot see a way forward as things stand. There has to be a breakdown of both the political system and the economy before a real social-national movement can arise.
Hard to see where Starmer-Labour has any edge over the Cons. Its policies remain similar to those of the Cons, and apart from a sluggish feel to Lab under Starmer, there is the perception, surely correct, that Labour has become a would-be technocratic or “managerial” “we can run workhouses better” party, which I would suggest is not immediately attractive to most voters.
Looking at the near-meltdown of the “Conservatives” (Liz Truss as Foreign Secretary! Nadine Dorries actually in Cabinet! etc) in recent months —indeed, over the past 2 years—, it is amazing that Labour and Starmer are not higher in the polls than they are.
Were a new Con Party leader to come in and sweep away the Truss, Dorries, Priti Patel (etc) detritus, Labour would be dead in the water (again). Corbyn was “Marmite” to many, but Labour was doing better under Corbyn in real elections than it has done under Starmer, so far at least.
Starmer’s trump card, he thinks, is managerial efficiency, and that is certainly the Cons’ weak suit, but Starmer and Labour may find that that is not quite enough. Also, I should imagine that the voters, even if unaware of the Labour Friends of Israel aspect, look at Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper etc, and see (rightly, in my estimation) would-be tyrants, full of political correctness and hatred for free speech.

And coincidentally the COVID measures have massively increased instances of 'mental disorders'…🤔
Little Matt Hancock, once “health tsar”, now totally washed-up and irrelevant, wishes the Prince of Wales “recovery” from an “illness” of which said notable would be completely unaware were it not for a “test”!
This whole “Covid” thing, whether you call it “panicdemic”, “scamdemic” or whatever, has just become utterly ludicrous. I think that the public perception of that (albeit that it took the public 2 years to wake up to it) is behind the swift abandonment of restrictions such as the facemask nonsense.
“Boris” may be an idiot, but he has a general cunning re. the public mood. He needs a boost, and getting rid of the restrictions will give him one, even if not as much of a boost as he needs.
As the narrative is being rolled back, they're all testing positive for the DEADLY VIRUS with no symptoms. https://t.co/qb3IUTWFrR
Incidentally, I went to Waitrose about 5 days ago. Not very crowded (early evening). As I entered the store, I saw a number of people, all at least 80, all wearing facemasks. About 6-8 of them. My heart sank that the sheep had still not awoken from the brainwashing. However, on going further into Waitrose, I saw that almost all the remaining shoppers (of all ages) were not still wearing the useless bits of cloth or plastic. Thank God for that.

It is thought the Ardern regime was concerned scenes like Ottawa may be repeated there and they took brutal action to suppress this. pic.twitter.com/5AOQsK7s2F
Russia must take Eastern Ukraine, Kiev, and the Black Sea littoral soon, or lose the golden moment. Waiting a few weeks might or might not be OK. Waiting a year would be disastrous. The New World Order will by then have built up Ukraine into, if not a NATO state (NATO rules disallow a country to join if its territory is partly-occupied), then a quasi-NATO ZOG puppet state.
A lot depends on weather, as with Barbarossa in 1941. If the mud gets worse, it might impede even the armoured vehicles of 2022, and the mud will not go until the late spring, or summer.
Everything favours the Russian forces…so far. Russia’s air power is overwhelming, its armour also very strong. Russia also has superiority in the numbers, equipment, and training of its ground troops.
A simultaneous seizure of the whole east of Ukraine, of Odessa (with Black Sea coast and the littoral stretching a few miles beyond that coast), and of Kiev, would mean that all major cities of Ukraine except Lvov would be in Russian hands. The capture of Kiev would decapitate the regime of the Jewish clown now posing as President, and there would be no immediate need to seize the half to two-thirds of Ukraine west of the Dnieper and inland.
Admittedly, that might leave considerable anti-Russia forces in the west of Ukraine, and a rump government based on Lvov. However, that rump government would have few sources of funding, be unable to import or export by sea, and would have limited credibility. Russian air power would be able to eliminate any large concentrations of armour left, and the air force of Ukraine is very weak; it would probably by then have more or less ceased to exist.
It is tragic that two peoples closely bound together for so long (over a thousand years) should battle in this way, but Russia has little choice now. For the sake of the whole civilian population of Ukraine, it must strike both swiftly and overwhelmingly. A Blitzkrieg for the sake of mercy, if you like.

While driving, I listened to BBC Radio 4 PM (old and bad habits die hard). Liz Truss in Moscow. Bloody hell! What an embarrassment this whole Cabinet is! The presenter said that Liz Truss was “talking tough” to the Russians… Talk about a hollow threat! Little Liz Truss, “talking tough” but with literally nothing to back her up.
The British Army, supposedly about 70,000 strong, but (if what I read is correct) with only about 11,000 active front-line troops altogether. Around Ukraine alone, Russia is said to have massed over 100,000.
It would have been better for Liz Truss to have said nothing than to have uttered, as she did, scarcely-veiled threats, when the Russians know that she has nothing in her arsenal with which to speak louder.
Talking about useless people, I also heard Cressida Dick yapping about how she is going to root out police personnel engaged in “racist, homophobic or misogynistic” language. How about the police actually doing their main job instead of doing the bidding of malicious Jew-Zionist agitators such as those in the tiny group of troublemakers called “Campaign Against Anti-Semitism”?
[Cressida Dick, Commissioner of Metropolitan Police, talking at New Scotland Yard with Gideon Falter, “Chief Executive” of the tiny “Campaign Against Antisemitism” group]
The police seem all too ready to play the role of “poundland KGB”. There have been thousands of recent examples of police exceeding their powers, and going well beyond what the law actually says (repressive as it anyway now is). There again, Cressida Dick is a Common Purpose drone, and their arrogant motto is “leading beyond authority“, a major reason why idiots like Mizz Dick have been promoted beyond their competence, and why public administration is now beginning to break down.
Meanwhile, I notice that, in Winchester, a statue has now been unveiled to honour a mediaeval Jewish moneylender woman! Comment is superfluous…
It can only be a matter of time before Odessa is taken.
Dame Cressida Dick says it is "quite clear" London mayor Sadiq Khan "no longer has sufficient confidence" in her leadership of the Metropolitan Policehttps://t.co/xOlNqX2ggapic.twitter.com/mIgWgJKJCw
This presser has not gone well. Sergey Lavrov has just briskly walked off, leaving @trussliz on her own at the podium. He said talking to her was ‘like talking to a deaf person’ & said what Russia does in its own territory is ‘not her business.’ She’s now got lunch with him… pic.twitter.com/7w3xORhUdw
So Lavrov, Foreign Minister of a country 72x the size of the UK, with several times the population, and armed forces about 20x as numerous and powerful, got bored listening to the shrill grandstanding of Liz Truss, who carries no weight whatsoever, either militarily, politically, or intellectually. For the UK, this is embarrassingly poor.
Lavrov: “Do you recognize the sovereignty of Russia over the Rostov and Voronezh regions?”
Truss: “Great Britain will never recognize Russian sovereignty over these regions,”
UK Ambassador to Russia then explained to #Truss both are Russian regions.
