I missed the reports of the recent death of farmer Tony Martin, imprisoned in 1999 for having shot some “travellers” (Irish tinkers) who had targeted his rundown farmhouse by night.
Martin was eventually released after having spent 3 years in prison, his initial conviction for murder having been downgraded on appeal to manslaughter. There had been a huge public outcry supporting Martin. I myself recall having posted a supportive postcard to him from Turkey when he was still sitting in prison. 2001. I wonder whether he ever received it.
I was unaware in 1999 and 2001 that Martin had (probably in the 1970s) supported the National Front [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Front_(UK)], and was related by marriage to Andrew Fountaine [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Fountaine, an interesting if slightly alarming character whom I once saw, and heard speak (at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London in 1975, when I was aged 18-19).
Martin should never have been prosecuted or even questioned (except pro-forma).
Hero.

A health minister who hopes pensioners will be dead before the next election and a chancellor who withdraws the winter fuel allowance, Labour are a disgrace! 😡😡😡
Starmer and Andrew Gwynne may loath pensioners and want them dead before the next election, but they seem to have forgotten the millions of people coming towards retirement have had the winter fuel allowance snatched away from them and won’t forgive. Labour are dead in the water.
Jack Lopresti, former Italian ice-cream salesman and sometime TA (part-time) private soldier [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Lopresti] and MP (2010-2024) is in fact not “fighting” in Ukraine. He is sitting at a desk in Kiev.
Both Lopresti and his ex-wife, Andrea Jenkyns, lost their Commons seats in 2024. They were both members of Conservative Friends of Israel.
Lopresti seems rather unintelligent, and obviously has little idea of geopolitics, history, or anything else much. I expect he is being paid for his present role, and paid more than the peanuts pay, paid in local rubbish-money, that the Ukrainian soldiers get (when paid at all).
Incidentally, nearly 6 years ago, I penned an assessment of Andrea Jenkyns:
There are two (or three) main arguments against mass non-European immigration into the UK. One is both racial and cultural, meaning also societal, the other is economic. For me, the economic argument is not the primary one, but it is (obviously) hugely significant. The swamping of this country by non-whites is making us poorer and, until stopped and reversed, will continue to make us poorer as a country, as a population and, particularly as British individuals.
Do you trust Kemi Badenoch and the Conservative Party will lower immigration if they are returned to power?

You still see stupid British scribblers, TV talking heads, MPs etc, spouting about how “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) is fighting for European culture, democracy, civil rights etc. In reality, the shambolic and corrupt Kiev regime is a brutal dictatorship.
The Jew Zelensky rules as the figurehead of a cabal of dictators. Elections should have been held a year or two ago and now never will be. Trade unions are banned. Dissidents are arrested already; a few have even been shot or otherwise “eliminated”. Recruitment to the armed forces is now largely by press-gang— people simply seized off the streets by militia goons.

Jew-Zionists often make false and malicious complaints of “racial harassment”. Several have done the same to me over the years, the latest (of which I am aware, at least) having been made by Stephen Silverman, self-styled “Director of Investigations and Enforcement at the tiny but (((well-funded))) fake charity, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], which complaint to police about me amounted to an attempt to pervert the course of justice. I have no idea why the police let Silverman and the “CAA” get away with stunts like that. He/Gideon Falter/”CAA” have been doing it for 10+ years, not only against me but also against many others (on various legal bases)— David Icke, Al-Jazeera TV, and many many other people and organizations
That faked complaint against me, on the entirely false basis of “racial harassment”, was back in 2021. The false complaint failed, as did all the others, but was then quite wrongfully twisted into a complaint against me on a different legal basis, which eventually led to my free speech trial of 2023. See below:
I hope that P.C. Plod and the “Clown” Prosecution Service are now, even if belatedly, aware of the malicious and troublemaking character of Silverman and his “CAA” pressure group.
In the circumstances, all those convicted of “rioting”, forceful protesting, pushing against police riot shields etc etc and imprisoned should be released on licence forthwith, at the very least.
Look at it….and the country now harbours many many like it…

Remarkably, Fields is still around, according to Wikipedia, and aged 92; he looked at least in late middle-age when I met him in the mid-1970s, but must in fact have been only about 45.

“Southport will consume everyone today but 12 yo Leo, murdered 2 days ago in cold blood returning from school – only a short walk home – adored by all and described by his Head as funny & sweet will fall back. I took my son to school and back without fail at that age, I could not let go of him.“
While understandable anxiety from a mother, and in a London which is now somewhere between a jungle and a zoo (I believe that she lives in West Kensington), 12-year-old boys surely do not need their mothers to escort them everywhere.
I was 12 in September 1968. My family was then living in Sydney, N.S.W. I would occasionally travel into the city centre (now, but not then, called the “CBD” or Central Business District), taking the ferry across Sydney Harbour from Cremorne Point to Circular Quay, a 3-mile trip. I even did it when aged only 11. I would then wander around Sydney’s central area, going wherever the mood took me.
I can remember going into a bookshop (I bought a book on Arabic, for no good reason), the offices of the Swiss Bank Corporation, and the very lively Stock Exchange (mining stocks were booming at the time, and the part of the trading floor dealing with them was frenetic, seen by me though the glass window of the public gallery).
[1966 photo of the ferry in Mosman Bay near Cremorne Point. My family lived in Mosman in 1967, then moved about a quarter-mile to the next suburb, Cremorne]
Cremorne Point wharf before the First World War, a view which was still somewhat recognizable (at least the general situation and the ferry pontoon) when I used it a few times in 1967-69. You could see little sharks swimming in the water, and the pontoon swayed as the ferry came in]
[in some more recent year; in 1967, the pontoon wharf was not covered or glassed-in]
Reverting to my main point, when I was only just 13 (by about 2 weeks), and on my family’s return trip by sea to the UK (we had arrived by air), my parents let me walk around alone on the various stops the liner Oriana made en voyage, including Acapulco (at that time not the large and crime-ridden city it now is, admittedly) and Miami (which involved my taking, entirely alone, both a local bus in Port Everglades and then a Greyhound bus to central Miami, and the same in reverse; the ship was scheduled to depart that same evening!).
I have to admit that, if I had a boy of 12-13, I would probably not give him quite that amount of latitude. I think that my main point is still valid. At some point, children (especially boys) have to be given the chance to look after themselves by wandering around etc.
Stray reminiscence
The above recollections sparked another reminiscence of my few years of Australian childhood (aged 10-13).
My parents always had a range of friends, and in Sydney one of those (met via my Anglo-Australian uncle, a business executive) was a barrister called Johnny Szabo, of Hungarian origin. I believe that he and his brother had taken the opportunity to leave socialist Hungary in or following the Uprising of 1956. Before that, Szabo had fought as a tank commander in the Second World War, alongside German forces.
As I understand, the Szabo brothers at first operated a repair garage or body shop in Sydney but, by the mid-1960s, Johnny Szabo was a prominent barrister who, I think I was told, took silk (was appointed QC). I do not really remember him except by name and story, though. I vaguely recall having met him once or twice. I imagine that he must have been born around 1920, so would now be long gone.

How can we have a £22 Billion black hole, but at the same time promise £3 Billion a year to the Ukraine for the next 100 years???
Let us say, for the sake of argument, that the aforesaid untermensch had not killed anyone. Would there, even then, be any reason for the British people to tolerate his presence, that of his family and clan or, for that matter, others, being in the UK, or in any part of Europe? I say not.
The only reasonable agreement will be for the Kiev regime to withdraw its capital to Lvov, though with authority over all Ukrainian territory west of the Dnieper except for the cities of Kiev and Odessa, which should be declared free cities, or having condominium status. Russia to rule all of Ukraine east of the Dnieper and also a corridor of land along the Black Sea coast, both east and west of Odessa.
That will turn South Africa, at long last, into the usual African-ruled “basket case”, of course. The dwindling white minority has kept South Africa at least semi-civilized since that idiot Mandela took over in the early 1990s, but whites have been emigrating in very large numbers since then. Eventually, perhaps not long in the future, the chaos and misrule, in some cases amounting to savagery, seen in most of black Africa will engulf South Africa. Once European/white rule ended, that was always going to be the endgame.

A few thoughts about Trump’s first days as President of the USA
My random thoughts start with the fact that Trump is unlikely to start a nuclear war with Russia. For me, that is number one, the question of primary importance. For a while, it looked as though the NWO/ZOG cabals were about to succeed in causing a third major war in Europe but, as far as I can see, that danger, though still present, may now be receding.
In fact, looking at Trump’s recent tweets about North Korea and other areas of the world, they read more like those of the businessman he is, rather than those of a warlord, statesman, or even ordinary politician. Trump is a businessman; he does not see the mileage in war or conflict— it interferes with the making of profits.
That businessman mentality is arguably out of place in the head of state of the most powerful state on Earth, but it has its positive aspect, i.e. the avoidance of war in Eastern and Central Europe, in the Middle East, and in the Asia-Pacific region.
The Presidential pardons for the rebels and/or protestors of 6 January 2020 are a very good thing, but I see that a number of social-national people convicted have been left unrescued. Trump should extend his courtesy and clemency to them as well.
Trump’s apparent hostility to a few countries not at all hostile to the USA —Mexico, Denmark (re. Greenland), Panama, and Canada— strikes me as entirely unnecessary.
I can only assume that Trump looks at the map, sees North America as a coherent whole, and then concludes that that whole continent should be under one rulership, US rulership. I seem to recall seeing a film (maybe starring Gary Cooper, not sure) in which an oligarchic cabal has a plan to take over not only the USA but also all of both North America and South America (and the bit in the middle, Central America). Did Trump once, in his own childhood long ago, see that same film? We shall never know. He himself may not even consciously recall seeing it, if indeed he ever did.
I note that Trump now says that the Israel-Gaza war is “not our war“, which is interesting. To me that says that he, now serving his second and final term as US President, no longer needs the Jewish lobby (though he has more in common with them, arguably, than he does with the Arabs and other Muslims).
Trump is not only a businessman; he is also one who thinks that he can negotiate successfully with anyone, and on any issue. He even wrote a book about it, The Art of the Deal. Thus he believes that he can strike a deal with anyone or any group or nation, based on mutual self-interest. That is likely to be successful, much of the time, but will fall down and fail when the adversary or opposing party is not motivated by self-interest as such, but by some fanatical or uncompromising belief.
Anyway, there it is. The next 4 years has begun.
Elon Musk
Much kefuffle about Musk’s odd “salute” gesture at the Inauguration.
In fact, Stuchbery has never had so many views on Twitter/X— 11M at time of writing. I believe that so many views might result in Twitter/X (and so, ultimately, and ironically, Musk) paying Stuchbery about USD $95. More than the bastard has earned in years! Still, I think that he will have to continue to rely on the largesse of the German social security/welfare system for the time being…
Actually, though he poses as “historian”, Stuchbery is not really one, not in the accepted sense.
My popular 2019 (inc. later updates) blog post about Stuchbery (who used to tweet about me from time to time) has just spiked again, by reason of his having tweeted about Musk in the past day or so. Hundreds of people today alone.
I was once on a ship, the Oriana, going west to east through the Canal. In 1969. I was just (by about 2 weeks) 13 years old. The Canal was then in the Canal Zone, ruled by the USA. To go into Panama itself, tourists or visitors had to pass through a kind of US Customs and Immigration, in effect, though it was all done by special Canal Zone police. At age 13, I was fascinated by the sidearms worn by the said police. Real “Wild West” pistols, huge and heavy-looking, sticking out of leather holsters. The uniforms were khaki, I recall, with wide-brimmed “cowboy” hats, rather as in the photo below that I have just found online today:
The ones I saw had “Wild West” holsters, though, and bigger sidearms than those in the photo. The weapons were the other way around, too.
I had asked my parents to go on the short escorted tour of Panama City. Out of the nearly 2,000 passengers on the ship, only about a dozen or so had asked to go into Panama, possibly in part because the tour started in the very late evening.
I recall that the First Officer of the liner (who used to say hello to me as I swam endlessly up and down the swimming pool late at night— I was an odd boy, arguably) saw me waiting to disembark, as the ship was secured to the dock, and remarked to me that “every thief, murderer and rascal (I think it was) comes to Panama.” Obviously Panama was not his favourite place for shore leave…
The “run ashore”, in the Royal Navy phrase, was not without incident. The dark and quiet city was patrolled by submachinegun-carrying soldiers in groups. Nothing seemed to be open (perhaps unsurprisingly, at nearly midnight), and there was an air of menace. In fact, 1969 was a year of coups d’etat in Panama.
The evening ended with an unexpected diversion, literally. Our little single-decker bus, carrying the dozen intrepid passengers off the ship, was just about to fire up and drive back to the Canal Zone when a long-haired blond and youngish (30-ish) American man, in one of those leather jackets with tassels, and carrying a large knife, told the bus driver to drive to where he, a rather unfunny Crocodile Dundee lookalike (though this was 17 years before that film was released) wanted to go. I was seated right at the front, near the driver. The driver put up no more than token resistance. We drove to wherever it was that our hijacker (who stood up throughout the fairly short journey, brandishing his weapon) wanted to go; he then disembarked, to general relief. The driver drove back to the Canal Zone, fast.
My family did manage to take a more normal afternoon walk around, I think within the Zone itself, when the ship docked at the other end of the Canal, at or near Colon. I especially remember a shop where they sold all sorts of odd stuff, such as stuffed baby alligators about 6 inches long.
Incidentally, part of the trip through the Canal, the bit that is or seems natural, was like being in the film The Naked Jungle: small waterfalls falling from the jungle-clad shores, parrots etc. Incredible humidity.
Panama is of course very different today. I had some legal connection with it when I was a barrister doing offshore work. It changed out of all recognition after the American invasion and restructuring of, and after, 1989.
Trump’s idea of seizing the Canal seems to me misconceived. For one thing, there seems to be no need. For another, there is a plan to dig another Pacific-Atlantic canal, in Nicaragua, thus lessening, in theory, the risk of the Panama Canal being blocked. In any case, the USA has many large ports both on the Pacific and Atlantic, so why worry?
Another point would be that any seizure of the Canal would stir up huge anti-American sentiment across Latin America. So why…?

Some pathetic pseudo-environmentalists, including one from the RSPB, were there, bleating about how they support “net zero” and were “working” to mitigate the negative consequences of covering the country with giant pylons. Pathetic.

I stopped donating (very modest donations, so be it) to Wikipedia when I realized that anything to do with UK social nationalism, WW2, and the old/tired “holocaust” farrago etc was being systematically vandalized by Zionist Jews.
In fact, a few years ago the malicious, indeed poisonous, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA” advertised on its website and, I think, Twitter/X account for Jew volunteers with their own Wikipedia accounts (i.e. so that their activities would not be seen to be a concerted CAA campaign or conspiracy) to “edit” (i.e. vandalize) Wikipedia.

Though painfully slow, the Russian advance in the southeast of former Ukraine continues.
If and when Trump cuts off military materiel going to the forces of the Kiev regime, the Stavka can order a general advance with little prospect of serious opposition.
Ha. As I said, Trump thinks like a businessman, a property developer. Having said that, it may be that many actual Gazans might welcome heavy American investment, if it did not come with obvious Jewish control attached to it. At present, the enclave is pretty much uninhabitable. Massive investment would be needed to remedy the damage Israeli war crimes have done.
Translation: “Ukraine” (Kiev regime) wants hundreds of thousands of NATO troops, so that Russian forces can be pushed back, or so that NATO can in some other way be dragged into the war, or the next war.
“Councils across England and Wales have said they are keen to help accommodate asylum seekers as the government attempts to move as many as possible out of hotels, in part to try to ease community tensions.

“Councils have a proud history of supporting new arrivals across the current range of asylum and resettlement programmes,” said Louise Gittins, a councillor and the chair of the LGA.“
[Guardian]
So there it is. If you cannot get a lease of a local authority council property, or indeed a fairly-priced private lease or rental, you know why— migration-invasion.
Look at the words of that Louise Gittins idiot, i.e. that the way to “ease community tensions” (meaning fool the English/British into believing that they are not being swamped) is to, in effect, prioritize invaders over British or, at very least, to allow them to have social housing on the same basis as those who live here, those whose ancestors lived here, and who pay —through the nose— into the system…

Electoral Calculus has the result of that (with Greens at a notional 8%) as: Labour 230 seats, Cons 197, Reform 93, LibDem 70, Greens 6.
Hung Parliament. Labour, even with LibDem and Green support, could only form a minority government (even in full coalition, only 306 seats, about 16 short of a majority).
Early days, though. If Reform UK could get to 26% (and all other unchanged), the result would be: Lab 190, Reform UK 172 (official Opposition), Cons 160, LibDems 69, Greens 6. In that scenario, Labour, 136 short of a majority, could only govern on the say-so of either Reform UK or the Conservative Party. In fact, in such a scenario, a Reform UK-Conservative Party coalition or agreement would be far more likely, producing a joint majority of about 10 seats.
Sooner or later, real social nationalism must break through. When people have suffered even more.

When I first drove in England, aged about 43, I had never had to parallel park for a driving test, and drove as long as I could on my foreign licence.
In the end, because the DVLA would not allow me to simply swap my licence for a UK one, I had to accept that I would have to get a UK licence and also take the UK driving test, which however I passed without difficulty, and perhaps unsurprisingly, having driven extensively both in the UK and overseas (including UK to Turkey and back, a trip more difficult in 2001 than it would be now, with the new motorways that now exist, extended Schengen Zone etc).
The one difficult aspect was the parallel parking, but I employed a driving instructor for 2 brief afternoon sessions, and he taught me how to parallel park to a higher standard than I already knew.

I was never a sparkling wine drinker, but Sekt is as good as anything else except the best Champagne. Also, on a partly-personal point, not many people know that, when Ambassador in London, Ribbentrop, apart from his residence in the German Embassy (then at Carlton House Terrace near The Mall), kept a private house in Barnes (the area the other side of Hammersmith Bridge; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barnes,_London).
The modestly spacious detached house, with gardens, and situated in a side-road, was later owned by a lady with whom I was slightly acquainted (the friend of a friend). I visited it once, perhaps twice. She later sold it (mid/late 1980s) to a Jew, who knocked it down and built a small block of two or three-storey flats on the site.
Incidentally, I was just looking at Wikipedia; nothing at all in it about Ribbentrop’s residence in Barnes. “Unknown history”, it seems, though of course MI5’s files would have the details, as far as the 1930s are concerned.

I think that that may be part of it. Also, the sinister conspirators trying to implement the Coudenhove-Kalergi agenda have made a determined effort to flood the British countryside with non-whites, as witness the National Trust and similar organizations.
The British countryside is one of the few redoubts of white British people, surrounded by urban and suburban non-white swamps. Farmers in the UK are almost entirely a white British community. This makes them a target.
I myself have criticisms of farmers in some respects, but that does not mean that I want them “replaced” by migrant-invaders and/or corporations interested only in the bottom line.

The Northern Ireland situation was handled, mainly, in the way the British state handled, for example, the Rhodesia/Zimbabwe situation. Gather as much intelligence as possible. Don’t be too harsh or extreme. Try to get the parties to come to agreement. Manage the situation.
That may sound all very reasonable, but it does not work when you are dealing with the likes of Mugabe or Adams. Fact. It leads to poor resulting conditions.
Northern Ireland stopped actually fighting 25 years or so ago mainly because the IRA had run out of steam, the civilian population wanted an end to it all, and the British Government was willing to throw huge amounts of money at the province in terms of public sector jobs, social welfare, social housing etc, and also willing to let the convicted fighters/terrorists/whatever out of prison. The Good Friday Agreement. “Peace” at a price.
The British Government was also willing to allow, in effect, the IRA into government. Martin McGuinness, Gerry Adams etc.
Oh, well. Northern Ireland is a sideshow anyway, but it is irritating.
“Reform UK is now only a single percentage point behind Labour – putting their leader Nigel Farage within touching distance of Number 10 at the next election.
New polling data from YouGov, commissioned by Sky News, puts Reform on 24 per cent and Labour on 25 per cent – down a whopping 9 percentage points from their winning vote share at the 2024 UK election.
With the Conservatives on 22 per cent, the UK electorate may be about to usher in a new epoch of three-way party politics.
The new research puts Labour on 26 per cent, Reform UK on 25 per cent, the Torieson 22 per cent, the Lib Dems on 14 per cent and the Greens on 8 per cent.
In general the assessment of Sir Keir’s first six months in office is damning, with only 10 per cent of voters judging that he has been successful and an overwhelming majortity (60 per cent) saying he has been unsuccessful.
Labour insiders are also worried at how the party is hemorrhaging voters to other parties across the political spectrum.
The new data found that they have retained only 54 per cent of supporters from the general election – while 7 percent have defected to the Lib Dems, 6 per cent to the Green Party, 5 per cent to Reform UK and 4 per cent to the Tories.
Meanwhile almost a quarter of those who voted Labour in the polls (23 per cent) either did not say, weren’t sure or had decided not to vote at all.
Labour also faces a problem with elderly voters in light of policies like the removal of the winter fuel allowance, with only 14 per cent of OAPs now saying they would cast their vote for Labour – down eight percentage points from the election.“
Naturally, Reform UK is not very close to me, ideologically. Pro Israel, pro-Jewish lobby, and (relatively) anti-welfare state; pro-finance capitalism.
Still, Reform UK has its uses. To move the “Overton Window”, particularly on issues of immigration, migration-invasion, free speech etc. Above all, to break up the LibLabCon “three main parties” scam which has been in place during my lifetime.
It may well be that all party politics will crumble to dust by reason of some existential catastrophe in the world, such as nuclear war, but that is another matter, arguably.
According to Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html], the figures given, if replicated at a general election, might result in a House of Commons with Labour holding 287 seats, Conservative Party 128, Reform UK 107, LibDems 77, Green Party 4. That would indicate a Lab-LibDem coalition, or some lesser concordat, Labour being about 37 short of an overall majority on those figures.

When I was about 21-y-o, I wanted to get rid of hundreds of unwanted books, mostly paperback novels (spy stories and crime thrillers etc). I gave them to the Royal Marsden because I was then living at Reigate Hill in Surrey, only about 8 or 9 miles away from the hospital’s site at Sutton (though the distance seems more because the two areas are so different). I dropped them off at the hospital reception. I hope they at least passed the time for some of the in-patients. I suppose that must have been 1977 or 1978.
It looks, though, as if the lady tweeter noted attends not the Sutton site of the hospital but rather its other and older location, in Kensington (which would make more sense, because she lives not far from my old shooting club, the Kensington Rifle and Pistol Club, now all but defunct and no longer —since the 1990s, if not earlier—in West Kensington). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Royal_Marsden_Hospital.
“My annual mammo is the best focus group of one you’ll get. Delightful radiographer tells me she’s never voted, they’re all as bad as each other and don’t listen to the NHS.
Furious about the social care plan delay not just as a healthcare worker but as the mother of a special needs adult who needs it. Her daughter volunteers in a food bank when she can, bless her.
3 disgraces in this story alone – underpaid NHS worker (my words not hers), crap & ludicrously expensive social care, food banks. I say I might have an offer you like and care passionately about fixing social care. And the rest. I also think doctors would run the NHS better, pen-pushers and deadbeat hospital CEOs, often from industry or politics, should be blocked off.“
All right. Some good points, but was she saying all that when she was married to a Conservative MP and Whip (until a decade ago)? I do not know, but I doubt it. She was (and still is? I wonder…) a passionate supporter of the part-Jews David Cameron-Levita and George (Gideon) Osborne, whose government of nasty nonsense, 2010-2015, imposed so-called “austerity” (for the poor) and spending cuts which permanently crippled this country in every way.
As for “food banks”, they scarcely existed until 2010. Only on a tiny scale, anyway. Another result of “Conservative” Party policies 2010-2015.
The Fiona Syms tweeter should think about why the Conservative Party presently stands at 22% in the opinion polls, 2 points lower than at GE 2024, despite the evident hopeless incompetence and unpleasantness of the “Labour” government of “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer and his little Labour Friends of Israel cabal.
People have not forgotten the 14 years of truly bad “Conservative” government 2010-2024, finishing off with the government of the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak; and now the “Conservatives” are “led” by a political joke (again), a Nigerian woman who only came to the UK at age 16, albeit that she spent a day or two here after her birth (in London).
Having said that, it is clear that Labour (too) is finished. After a week or two of Starmer-Labour misgovernment, I blogged as much, at which time the msm were sycophantically applauding Starmer (some stupid woman scribbler in, I think, the Guardian, even said that she found herself attracted to Starmer sexually!— Well, Henry Kissinger did say that “power is the ultimate aphrodisiac“…).
What stands out there for me is how only among those 65+ years of age is voting Conservative anywhere near the level required to ground a Conservative Party government. 35%. Not very impressive anyway, but dropping to only 25% among those 50-64 y o, and to only 16% among those aged 25-49 before almost disappearing among those aged 18-24.
It might be argued that those aged below 65 y o might well change their views when they age further (just as it was said by Soviet anti-Christian propagandists in the pre-1989 period that “only old women now attend Russian Orthodox churches“, but that was countered by those who noted that there seemed always to be another generation of old women at church…).
Yes, those now aged below 65 may well be more inclined to vote Conservative when they reach 65+, but in my opinion the numbers will never be higher, or even as high, as they now are.
If the percentage of those 65+ voting Conservative is now 35% or so, by 2029 that might easily decline to 30%, and lower thereafter. The same slide might also be seen, and probably will be seen, lower down the age scale. If the present 18-24 y o generation only vote Conservative Party at around 5%, that will almost certainly increase, but maybe only slightly, over the years to come. To what extent is hard to pinpoint, but maybe by only about 5 points in each coming generation, so at age 65+ maybe to about 20%.
Admittedly speculative.
That is assuming that the present voting and political system will still be here in 2060, 2040, or even 2030. Or the present world as we know it…

Until 6 months ago, though I already predicted on the blog that Starmer-Labour would be useless, I did not think that this government would or even could equal in infamy the totally s**t governments of 2010-2024. Well, I was wrong in that last. Starmer and his crew are as bad as, or worse than, any of the “Conservative” governments of 2010-2024.
I think that this comes within the category “shocking but not surprising”…

“A law student is suing Cambridge University for discrimination after he failed his PhD and delayed his career working as a barrister.
Jacob Meagher is seeking ‘substantial damages’ from the world famous institution, alleging he was the subject of disability discrimination and victimisation following the failure of his law PhD.
Mr Meagher also claimed that his oral ‘viva voce’ interview, where he was questioned about his thesis by two examiners, caused ‘significant damage’ to his health.
He ended up failing the examination, meaning he missed out on a opportunity to take up a tenancy at a ‘particular set of chambers’ and therefore ‘suffered a substantial loss of anticipated earnings’.
Outlining the claim, the judge said: ‘Mr Meagher…is a student at the University of Cambridge…undertaking a PhD in law.
‘[He] did not successfully pass his final viva voce examination of his doctoral thesis.
Court documents also stated that the University’s Disability Resource Centre had recommended that at the viva, examiners follow a set of guidelines, produced as part of a Student Support Document (SSD), to help him.
These included asking specific rather than general questions, using the active, rather than the passive, voice and allowing him pauses and breaks after questions…to allow him to ‘mentally retrieve the words or information that he needed in order to answer’.“
[Daily Mail]
How on Earth does that litigant think he is going to survive at the Bar (unless he does no court work at all) if he cannot endure being verbally challenged, and needs time “to mentally retrieve the words or information that he [needs] in order to answer“?
You need a thick skin at the Bar. I should know. I was a practising barrister, in court almost daily, from 1993-1996 in London (often at the High Court, as well as in County Courts and both “the mags” and, less often, Crown Courts), and during 2002-2008 based in Exeter (though travelling widely across the UK and beyond).
Being put on the spot by a judge, especially a High Court judge (I was never at the Court of Appeal or the Supreme Court), can be a chastening experience even if the judge is (as most High Court judges are) reasonably courteous.
Woe betide the barrister who is unprepared, or whose instructing solicitors have fallen down on their job. I usually managed to put up a good show, or at least a good front, but I have seen other barristers fall silent, unable to say a word, or flounder helplessly; even, in one case (in Camberwell Magistrates’ Court, before a particularly severe Stipendiary Magistrate —the people called District Judges now—) actually whimper and almost burst into tears (it was a man, too…).
At one time, a barrister who was disabled, even physically, was at a huge disadvantage in trying to get into any chambers. Now, it is arguable that things have gone to the other extreme.
When I was in provincial chambers in Exeter, from 2002-2008 , there was a girl Bar pupil from Northern Ireland. She seemed pleasant and was afterwards offered a tenancy (after which she became markedly less pleasant). The point, though, was that she had a bad speech impediment. In my opinion, the Northern Irish accent is hard enough to understand, let alone when the speaker has a speech impediment. She did get some criminal and family work, though; low-level stuff.
In the end, that Northern Irish person gave up the Bar entirely (I was told) and returned to her native Ulster. At least there they were, presumably, able to understand what she said.

The mainstream media milieu is a cesspit. I was just reading about some person whose name, though I had seen it somewhere, in the back of my mind, conveyed little to me. A few years younger than me (I am now 68), he has died, and even years ago was looking at least a decade or more older than me, looking at photos in the newspapers. In fact, make that 20+ years older.
Apparently, that person had, at one time, in the 1990s, been spending £4,000 a week on cocaine, and drinking 4-5 bottles of vodka every day!
You could double or treble that sum to get the same value in the money of 2025.
That tells me that such System-approved msm types are both hugely over-remunerated and totally decadent. Britain needs a thoroughgoing cultural purge even more than it needs a political purge. Hitler-level. Stalin-level. Biblical-level.

“…the highest levels of government“?

What I look upon with “horror” is, inter alia, the fact that only someone such as Elon Musk, someone outside the jurisdiction of the poundland police state that Britain has become and/or is becoming, can speak out on a number of very important issues, such as —only one example— the Pakistani-origin “community” conspiracies to rape young English girls.
I once met the Metropolitan of Kiev (the second-ranked Orthodox dignitary after the Patriarch of Moscow). About 40 or 42 years ago, when he visited London. He gave me a bottle of Moskovskaya vodka. A rather clever/cunning man, but quite benign, I thought. Small, with a huge —and especially long— beard that he tucked into his overcoat, like a scarf.

Take a look at that photo. Is there any point keeping such a “person” in our society? Useless even as forced labour.
We have to accept that we need to upgrade the population in order to evolve the society, or even maintain it as it is. Much of the London population, indeed the UK population, now degrades society just by existing.

This Greenland thing (the USA potentially going to annex the territory) may (if it ever happens) drive a wedge between the USA on the one hand, and the EU states (and European members of NATO) on the other. That would be a very good thing. NATO might even fall apart, enabling all of Europe to develop closer links with Russia.
At present, people are not only being prosecuted for “offences” of having allegedly published “unpleasant” comments but also for having published serious comment relating to important social and political (and historical) matters inconvenient to certain groups, especially the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby. I should know. I myself have been victimized, for about 12 -13 years, by the Jew-Zionist pro-Israel lobby. What infuriates that lobby the most is that I refuse to be a victim. I continue to stand up for right, justice, and truth.
The articles below are presented in chronological order, from 2017 through to 2024.
The detail can be read, in part, in those articles but, overall, the anti-free speech campaign against me (and many others) has been spearheaded since 2014 by the small but (((well-funded))) “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, which has relatively few active supporters, even in the UK Jewish “community”, yet presents itself as if in a leadership role. Jewish and/or pro-Israel employees of TV and radio stations make sure that the tiny handful of “CAA” spokespersons are given airtime, while unethical scribblers quote the “CAA” types in a few of the newspapers.
In reality, the “CAA” consists of a small handful of more or less full-time activists, and a larger but still very small number of supporters (some of which are plainly deranged).
Well, there it is. So far, the Jew-Zionists (the “CAA” and also “UKLFI”— “UK Lawyers for Israel”) have managed to have me disbarred (albeit 8 years after I had completely ceased work as a barrister), have me removed from Twitter (in 2018; pre-Elon Musk), have had the police telephone me and/or turn up at the door of my now-humble home several times over the past decade, and have had me subjected 2-3 times to “voluntary” (really, involuntary) police interviews.
The “lobby” has also now (in 2023; sentence in 2024) procured my prosecution and conviction under the “bad law” of the Communications Act 2003, s.127 (despite that Act having been recommended for repeal by the Law Commission).
Naturally, I pleaded Not Guilty (as I always would, were any other attempt to be made) and nearly succeeded, but was found guilty (on very dubious grounds), which resulted (a few months later) in my being sentenced to a 9-month “community order” (i.e. akin to the old “probation”) and which turned out to consist of half a dozen or so short chats —lasting 30 to 120 mins— with a rather charming young probation lady, and also a financial penalty (mainly notional court costs) amounting to £734 (over a third of which was paid by a few generous people who gave to a crowdfunder I set up on GiveSendGo).
I might have succeeded on appeal, but decided that the gamble was not worth the extra trouble and expense, on that occasion.
I was sentenced in mid-March 2024. My “probation” period lasted officially until December 2024 but in reality finished in early September 2024.
Still, I remain politically active in terms of comment, and the blog has been published uninterruptedly right through all that process and nonsense. Almost daily.
Any further attempts to prosecute me or to close down the blog will be met with the same resistance and contempt.
We shall see what transpires. “It ain’t over ’til the fat lady sings” (at Wessex CPS, aka the “Clown” Prosecution Service, or generally).
Incidentally, quite a few of those who have tried to persecute me over the years have fallen victim to various medical conditions, or other dispensations of Fate; some have died.

Cloud cuckoo, did he pay you in kind for that tweet.
The name George Foulkes struck a faint chord, so I looked it up.
Turns out that George Foulkes was born in Shropshire in 1942, was educated partly privately, and was awarded a degree in psychology from Edinburgh in or about 1963-64, after which he apparently managed to avoid having to work in any job or profession (unless you include being f/t President of the Scottish Union of Students and then a local councillor) until elected as Labour MP in 1979 (he tried to become an MP in both 1970 and 1974 but failed).
Foulkes’ time as an MP was undistinguished. He tried to have Space Invaders and similar games banned in 1981 in case they caused “deviancy“, and introduced a few other private members bills which also got nowhere. He served on a few committees, for which he presumably received more money and/or expenses.
Foulkes was appointed a Labour shadow minister in 1992, but was forced to resign in 1993, having assaulted a policeman while drunk (and disorderly).
Foulkes, as both MP and peer, has belonged to a number of Commons committees dealing with the Caribbean, and thereby has received a large number of freebie trips (in effect, holidays) to the Caribbean.
Foulkes —naturally— tore the **** out of his expenses as an MP and, after having been elevated to the Lords, did the same as a peer. Wikipedia notes that his claimed “expenses” as “Lord” Foulkes during the financial year 2007-2008 alone amounted to nearly £55,000, worth about £100,000 in the money of 2025. He was also one of those Labour “parliamentarians” who tried to suppress exposure of his own and all other expenses claims.
Foulkes also “served” (and was well-paid) as a Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) during 2007-2011. No doubt he claimed plenty of expenses that way too.
The bastard also belongs to Labour Friends of Israel (what a surprise…). He favoured the invasion of Iraq. He was part of the anti-Corbyn caucus in Labour, needless to add.
So there it is. What a useless person, sadly typical of so many careerist, moneygrubbing, System-party politicians. “Dirty democratic politicians“, as Hitler called the Weimar Republic equivalent. These days, the word “democratic” might as well be omitted, of course.
Foulkes really should not be tweeting about honesty, integrity, and humanity…
Why are we importing hundreds of thousands of people into Australia from cultures which are completely at odds with our own? Why don’t we relax the regulations for people who wish to flee the UK instead. 🇦🇺🇬🇧
Sadly, Australia, where I lived and went to school for three years in the late 1960s, seems to have been making the same mistakes (promoted by the same or similar malicious groups…) as the UK and much of Europe. Plainly put, importing useless blacks and browns, and others such as Chinese. What a pity. So unnecessary and destructive.

Well, this week 7/10, thus just beating political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 6, 7, and 10. I admit that my (correct) answers to q.’s 4 and 9 were educated guesses.
Blog readers
I am always interested to see from where hits on the blog come. In the past week, from 16 different countries (inc. UK). Of course, with advances in technology, you cannot say for sure where readers are located; some may be, say, in Australia but appear to be in the USA, but I daresay most locations are accurate.
I was just looking at the apparent location of readers since I started the blog towards the end of 2016, so 8 years ago. Readers from 155 countries and territories in the world, so from about three-quarters of the world. There are 195 states in the world, plus some extra territories that do not have that status (such as Antarctica— and, yes I have had the odd hit from there, presumably from some scientist at a polar research base).
I have occasionally mused on who it might be in (inter alia) Lesotho, Antarctica, Greenland, Burkina Faso, the Aaland Islands (maybe I can guess who that particular one is), American Samoa, Chad, Tadjikistan, or Congo-Kinshasa, that is reading my thoughts and ideas.
The largest number of hits has always been from the UK, though (about 70%, with a further 10% from the USA).
The readership of the blog, on a daily basis, is still modest, never reaching over a thousand on any one day, and often not reaching even a hundred (I do not publicize the blog anywhere, and am not on Twitter/X or Facebook etc), but I have always taken the view that “one human soul is a big audience“.
Risible how System political scribblers, ivory-tower academics etc really still think that elections in the 2020s are still won by ridiculous local political footsoldiers knocking on doors, disturbing and and irritating householders, or by the voters reading the absolute shite put out on leaflets etc. This is 2024, not 1924…
John Rentoul seems unsure. He neither endorses nor dissents. He probably imagines that people actually read those (mostly) LibLabCon leaflets at election-time. Wrong; most, maybe 99%, go in the bin unread.
As for “average age 61, opposed to net zero“, what about “almost all (real) British” (as well)?

Blast(s) from the past
I just re-read the blog post about the infamous New Zealand massacre, which happened nearly 6 years ago, in 2019. Apparently, that blog post has had a rather small, disappointingly-small, number of hits; frankly, I think it is still worth reading. Anyway, here it is:

Jew-Zionist barrister Simon Myerson getting the law wrong (again)…
On a wider point, that whole traditional rank of “King’s Counsel” or KC should be done away with. Outdated, and now all but meaningless. As an ordinary barrister from 1991 (in practice from 1993) to 1996, and then from 2002-2008, I encountered QCs (as they then were) in court a number of times, and did OK against them quite a lot of the time, if I say so myself. Sometimes they won, sometimes I won.
I believe that about 1 in 6 of practising barristers are now “KC”. In the past, particularly before the Second World War, the proportion was far smaller, partly because those in a position to recommend and/or make the decision were more selective; partly, also, because there were fewer applications, and that was partly because a “KC” then usually had to “lead” a junior (non-KC) barrister, and so cost the lay client 2x, sometimes 3x or more, in fees. Some took silk only to find that they became far less busy. These days, not only does a KC often appear alone, but in some cases even unattended by a solicitor.
I believe that I recall from the memoirs of Lord Denning [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Denning,_Baron_Denning] that when he “took silk” (became a KC), in 1938, there were only 4 such “letters patent” granted that year, including his own. In 2024, no less than 100 persons became “KC” (5 honorary only, 95 ordinary).
Of course, in recent decades, arguably starting in the early 1990s, the pernicious influence of “political correctness” (now often termed “woke-ness”) has had its effect; it has never been admitted that the Bar now has some King’s Counsel appointed at least partly by reason of their “ethnic” background, but that such is the case is the opinion of not a few (including me).
Well, there it is.
As to Lord Denning, in his day, he was the most popular judge among the public; arguably the only popular judge, as well as the one with the most name-recognition. Opinion among barristers was less unmixed, though few if any would dispute his very great ability.
I saw Lord Denning up close only once or twice, notably when hurrying to the Library at Lincoln’s Inn in the early 1990s. My chambers were in the Inn at the time, and I was also a member of the Inn then (I was much later —2017— expelled, as an automatic consequence of my politically-procured disbarment of 2016).
I pushed open the very heavy oakwood Library door and missed, by only an inch or two, knocking over Lord Denning, who must have been about 94 (b.1899). I recall that he did not flinch, and smiled benignly as I held open the door for him.

Incidentally, just now looking at Wikipedia’s article on Denning, I see that, by 1936 (2 years before he took silk), his income was some £3,000 a year (arguably worth about £200,000 in the money of today, and income tax was far lower in 1936). Impressive, but the leading silk of the day, Birkett, at about that time had an income of £25,000 (between £1.5M and £2M today).
By comparison, in that era, domestic staff in a large country house might receive between £100 a year (kitchen maid) to £250-£500 a year (chief gamekeeper, or for a valued chief cook or butler in a great household). Of course, most were fed, clothed, and given accommodation as well.
Still, Denning, in the mid-1930s, was making about 10x the income of a head gamekeeper, and perhaps 30x the income of a kitchen maid. Birkett, on a fee-income of between £25,000 and £40,000 a year, was making as much as ten times even those figures! Several millions a year, in 2024 money.
Social history. Interesting.
I see that, when Denning was made a High Court judge in 1944, his salary was set at £7,000, perhaps £300,000-£400,000 in today’s money, so rather more than High Court judges now get (around £225,000; and income tax is higher today).

So why was the bastard even here in the UK? Nothing in the Daily Mail report (of course). Looks Somali, but nothing in that very poor report about the origin or background of the criminal.
The Daily Mail “journalist” also describes the untermensch in question as having been “homeless” at the time that he killed the victim, but then goes on to say that the defendant drove away, went shopping after the attack, and then returned to his home!
No indication in that report as to why the defendant was even in the country. Nothing about the savage having a job, either, yet here the bastard is, in the UK, and with a home and a car, at that. Oh, and he had enough money to buy cocaine, apparently.
At least he thought to buy food for his cat, as it seems. I hope that the cat was not made homeless.
This country is so screwed, incredibly so.
Nothing that mass deportations or executions could not at least start to solve, though.
