Morning thought

So the Israelis have now killed over 40,000 people in Gaza, the vast majority non-combatants, and the majority of them women and children (or at least juveniles under 18).

According to the Israeli authorities themselves, the Jewish/Israeli death toll in Southern Israel arising from the attack by Hamas operatives on 7 October 2023 was just over 1,100, of which about a third were Israeli soldiers, police, and operatives of the Shin Beth security organization. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Hamas-led_attack_on_Israel#Revision_of_casualty_numbers

So, Israeli death toll on 7 October 2023— about 1,180.

Palestinian Arab death toll in Gaza since 7 October 2023 to date— over 40,000.

40x the number…

Also, the Israelis have made Gaza all but uninhabitable.

The question arises: at what point will the “Israelis” consider that they have received sufficient “payback”?

Talking point

I myself have not thought that for a long long time anyway…

Britain is now infested by these fake “think tanks”, “institutes”, fake “charities” etc, staffed and headed by useless persons (often, though not always, non-European), and subsidized (often, not always) out of public funds. A kind of propaganda industry dedicated to the subversion of our race, culture, and civilization.

You often find that MPs who are chucked out after having lost elections, and especially those who belong to “Friends of Israel” groups, are found well-paid jobs either heading such fake think-tanks etc, or similar “jobs” with various commercial regulatory bodies.

The Jews in Israel/Palestine will not be content (and in fact not even then) until they “own”, by conquest or trickery or terrorist gangsterism, all of the land in the country. Many of those Jew “settlers” (terrorists) are not even of “Israeli” origin, but have recently arrived from the USA, Australia, the UK, France etc.

Harold Wilson

Happened to see this recently-republished 2016 Guardian reminiscence of Harold Wilson [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Wilson] and the Isles of Scilly:

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/may/27/scilly-harold-wilson-prime-minister

Harold Wilson was (in the 1960s; he returned for a couple of years in the 1970s) Prime Minister at a time of transition, when Britain still had (more) remnants of our once-vast Empire, and when it still stood up sometimes to the demands of our supposed “ally” across the Atlantic. Wilson refused to join the USA in the Vietnam War, though Australia and New Zealand did, considering themselves bound by their SEATO membership [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southeast_Asia_Treaty_Organization]. The UK, though, was also a SEATO member, as were other states.

Domestically, the UK still had so many possibilities (in the 1960s as well as the 1970s), partly because mass immigration had scarcely started, as compared to 2024 (you rarely, almost never, saw black, brown, or other non-European persons). The very few (literally one or two, except at Oxford University) seen by me in the 1960s in Berkshire and Oxfordshire, where I lived, were occasional people such as NHS consultants.

I should know what the UK was like back then: I was born in 1956.

In the 1960s, there were many modernizing developments in the UK (for good or ill, sometimes for good) such as the Open University, the first motorways (M1, M4), Concorde etc. Also, after 20 years, Britain was just starting to pull away strongly from the restricted post-WW2 atmosphere that had hung over the country since the Pyrrhic victory of 1945.

As for Wilson himself, I encountered him when I was 9, or maybe just 10, in 1966 (my birthday being in early September). I was for some reason determined to meet him and, knowing that he was on the island, stalked a few people who looked, to my mind, a bit like him until I found my quarry on the quay at Hugh Town, St. Mary’s, accompanied by his sole bodyguard, a slim “British officer” type with a pencil moustache, his pistol and holster hidden under a cricket jumper tied around his waist, only the thin brown gun belt over the shoulder giving it away.

[the 9-10 year-old Millard, at left, with younger brothers and Harold Wilson, in 1966]

Wilson has been much-criticized over the years, but had some good qualities, not only personally but politically. He was unlucky inasmuch as the trade unions were all-powerful at the time, and because Britain was still, psychologically, fighting the Second World War.

The so-called “Fleet Street Fox” (Susie Boniface) is one of the least educated and perceptive of the newspaper scribblers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susie_Boniface.

Darren Grimes cannot believe it…he must have missed the times when, to take only one or two examples from recent years, Jez Turner (Jeremy Bedford-Turner) was sentenced to a year’s imprisonment for making a brief speech in Whitehall which merely suggested, in one sentence, that Jews should be expelled from England, as they had been (more than once) centuries ago. Darren Grimes and all those other “alt-right” talking heads and scribblers must have also missed the imprisonment of Alison Chabloz for having posted a few satirical songs and cartoons.

Other such free speech martyrs have included Sam Melia of Patriotic Alternative and “Sven Longshanks” (James Allchurch).

Completely useless, and in fact negative, a millstone round the neck of our present society, let alone any more advanced version. Not needed, not wanted.

I have seen examples of that attitude in London (including, but not only, on trains) since the early 1980s.

Those without respect for society, or for (real) British people, may at least be controlled, and their behaviour contained, via fear.

I very much dislike Douglas Murray’s pro-Israelism and pro-Jewish/Zionist-lobby stances, but he is surely on the right track here, leaving aside his wrongful negativity towards National Socialism.

Quite.

Incidentally, the only reason there are any cases at all of “mpox” (monkeypox) in Sweden and a few other European countries is because there are African populations in Europe.

The academic milieu in the UK is a “rotten borough” that should be purged.

El Al flights out of Israel fully-booked again, I expect.

Stalin asked, sardonically, “how many divisions has the Pope?” (Pius XII), yet Stalin is gone, the Soviet regime is gone, and the Pope (albeit a successor-Pope) is still around, as is the Roman Catholic Church (though many think it will not outlast the present century).

“Trump says he’s disappointed that the Israel and Jewish lobby isn’t as powerful now as it was 15 years ago. “15 years ago, if you said anything bad about Israel or the Jewish people, you were finished as a politician — the most powerful lobby in this country by far, was Israel and Jewish people. Today it’s almost like, what happened?“

People at last, and at least, started to wake up, that’s what happened.

Part of that is younger people (worldwide) not using the Jewish/Zionist controlled or influenced “legacy media”, aka “mainstream media”, very much these days.

Trump, as President, always was a squawking parrot in a gilded cage, guarded by Jews, but at least he might be able to prevent WW3, if re-elected.

I thought, before Biden stood aside, that Trump was “nailed on” to win, but the Kamala Harris candidature changes that, stupid and incredibly ignorant though she is.

For one thing, the American masses now vote mainly according to identity box-ticking. Many of the blacks will vote for Kamala Harris just because she is non-white (half-Jamaican, half-Tamil Indian). Many American women will vote for her simply because she is a woman.

I am beginning to think that Trump might lose this. Maybe that is why he is trying to get the Jews on-side. They may only comprise 2% of the American population, but their influence over the mass media makes their support all but indispensable for Trump.

I now find the US Presidential Election impossible to call.

Race, crime, and police reporting

Take a look at this local newspaper report.

https://www.advertiserandtimes.co.uk/sport/cctv-500-of-medicinal-products-stolen-from-lymington-store-9379199/

Shoplifters caught on cctv. The police describe them both as “white“, which they plainly are not.

I wonder how accurate many such reports are (or, rather, are not).

The police of the UK are pretty close to being just useless now, and are utterly suffused with “woke” nonsense.

There is a kind of indefinable purity in some of Holst’s lesser-known work.

Parasites, scavengers and predators. I should like to offer a solution here but, sadly, “the usual suspects” and their political, police, and CPS puppets, have almost destroyed free speech in the UK, making any comment difficult, presently.

That sort of thing is being driven by relatively small groups within each occupation, profession, and vocation.

I cannot say anything directly on the blog because we now have so little free speech in the UK (by reason, indeed, of those same “small groups”), so I shall just say “are you thinking what I am thinking?“…

This is becoming like a scaled down and ridiculous copy of Stalin’s purges. As Marx noted, first time— tragedy, but second time— farce [Karl Marx, The 18th Brumaire of Louis Napoleon].

Of course, that poor fellow quite wrongfully sentenced to 8 weeks in prison, will not see the (unfunny) joke, even though his 8 weeks will in the end be something like 3 (he will be out after 40% of the headline tariff).

https://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/24513379.sellafield-worker-jailed-sharing-offensive-facebook-posts/

In my opinion, the defendant should have pleaded not guilty. Unfortunately, he seems to have pleaded guilty (perhaps on advice of his solicitor) to get a notional sentence reduction from 12 to 8 weeks.

See another recent case in the same area: https://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/24506682.maryport-man-jailed-facebook-post-police-bid-stop-disorder/

Starmer’s thoroughly wicked and unconstitutional suggestion (almost a demand, at least an expressed presumption) that anyone pleading not guilty to any charge arising —however peripherally— out of the recent protests) would be remanded in custody until trial (which these days might be months or even a year later) was a direct attack on the rule of law. Plainly intimidatory, and designed to make defendants cave and plead guilty.

The latest I heard, something like 700 arrests have been made. How many charges, I do not know.

The truth, of course, is now no defence, as I understood during my own free speech trial and sentencing (trial November 2023, sentencing March 2024: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/03/16/diary-blog-16-march-2024/

Diary Blog, 16 March 2024, including an account of my recent free speech trial and sentencing

Compare those sentences of imprisonment merely for giving out a few online opinions (though the Court, “Clown” Prosecution Service and politicized police all try to make the “offences” seem far worse) with those handed down for real crimes committed in the same area, such as this one:

https://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/24509815.shoplifter-denies-threatening-stab-carlisle-co-op-manager/

“A thief told the manager of a Carlisle Co-op store who had caught him stealing alcohol that he would return and “stab him” if he called the police, magistrates heard.

The defence lawyer representing prolific offender Elijah Ali, 34, told the city’s Rickergate court that the defendant denied making the threat. He did, however, plead guilty to the theft and to using threatening behaviour.

Prosecutor George Shelley outlined the facts.

He said the defendant and a second unknown male walked into the Central Avenue branch of Co-op at around 9.30pm on August 5 and began brazenly stealing alcohol from the shelves, picking up “numerous” bottles of booze and putting them in Ali’s jacket.

This prompted the store’s manager to make a 999 call, reporting that a theft was in progress and requesting urgent help.

The second male left the store but as he left, said Mr Shelley, Ali told the store manager: “If you call the police, I’m going to come back and stab you. That placed [the manager] in a state of fear.”

Ali’s record comprises 98 previous offences, 25 of them thefts and kindred crimes. “He’s a prolific offender,” said Mr Shelley.

Magistrates imposed a £200 fine and told Ali to pay the Co-op compensation of £200 as well as £85 costs and a surcharge.“

So a few online comments about a news item results in immediate imprisonment, but for a “prolific thief” (called Ali) with 98 previous convictions, and who threatened to stab a shop manager, only a minor fine (probably paid off at £5 a week).

Any comment, “Prime Minister”? That’s you, two-tier Keir.

More from the courts of the 2024 Star Chamber? https://www.newsandstar.co.uk/news/24513195.workington-woman-accused-social-media-post-stir-racial-hatred/.

As in the old Soviet Union, a political “crime” is now dealt with far more harshly in the UK than a real crime of acquisition or violence.

The language gives it away (“our communities” etc).

Exactly. Some completely blameless tweets by seemingly blameless middle-aged ladies, and which I reposted on the blog, are now gone completely (including from the blog, because I usually embed them). The ladies in question seem to have been frightened into deleting not only the (entirely lawful) tweets but also their Twitter/X account(s).

“Two-tier Keir” is a hateful bastard. Yvette Cooper is no better. They are conspirators, trying to impose a “woke” multikulti police state upon this country.

Or “I am an honest citizen and fully support Comrade Stalin! Starmer!” [tweeter “Chris Faux”, or his type, in another setting].

2,200 Twitter/X users have apparently seen that tweet of “Chris Faux”. How many have “liked” it? 4… How many have retweeted it? Only 1…

“Today’s authoritarianism knows no boundaries. London’s Metropolitan Police Chief just told the world that he will be coming after anyone who violates British social media censorship rules with international extradition requests – to include American citizens.

Simultaneously, the EU’s Censorship “Kommisar” Thierry Breton just told Elon Musk he can’t allow EU citizens to witness tonight’s interview with President Trump.

The elites who want to decide what is permissible to read and watch justify their censorship by labeling dissenting opinions as “misinformation,” “hate speech,” “far right,” or “extremist.”

During the lockdowns, MI-6 designated me and other health freedom activists as potential “terrorists.” But the label applies more closely to themselves, as they try to scare us into submission again with bird flu hoaxes, debt-fueled financial collapse, and ever more dangerous imperial wars of choice.

This is definitely a wake-up call, America. It’s time to reclaim our government. If not in America, the paragon of freedom, then where? https://zerohedge.com/political/london-calling-police-chief-threatens-arrest-people-around-world-online-speech.“

[Robert F. Kennedy jnr; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_F._Kennedy_Jr]

His uncle, President John F. Kennedy, once said this:

Something about which Britain’s new “Labour” government (“elected” by only 20% of all eligible voters and a mere 33.7% of those who voted) might care to think.

The regime of two-tier Keir again.

Don’t stop what you are doing, Elon Musk. Hit Starmer hard.

The point is that the UK’s authoritarian/totalitarian laws and procedures have, in many cases, yes, been in place for some time, but have not been extensively used; in fact used mainly during and after the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic of 2020-2022.

This horrible nonsense has to go.

See also: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/11/15/when-reality-becomes-subjective/.

Bureaucrat-drone-dictator Starmer thinks that, by repressing free speech following the recent protests (and their riotous offshoots), he has somehow “solved” the problem that came across his desk. No. Every one of those recently sentenced, or sitting in some overcrowded jungle prison awaiting trial or sentence, now resents and hates Starmer and also the multikulti police state which he, Yvette Cooper, and Rachel Reeves, now head.

What does Starmer imagine will be happening in 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028 and 2029, with British people scarcely able to make a living, to pay exorbitant rents, to buy houses the cheapest of which cost hundreds of thousands of pounds, or to walk the streets of their own cities safely?

Every day, hundreds, sometimes thousands, of migrant-invaders arrive illegally on our shores. Thousands more, every day, enter at least quasi-“legally”.

Britain is heading for a dystopian conflict never seen before.

Maybe also making “holocaust” “denial” (i.e. examination and historical revision, particularly of events of the 1940s and 1930s) illegal in the UK. Don’t forget that Starmer is a member of Labour Friends of Israel, and that his wife is Jewish.

Don’t forget the others, the ~1,000,000 migrant-invaders that entered “legally” in the past year, or the births to non-European mothers.

I bet that the airlines still flying out of Israel have their flights fully-booked.

Europe should be standing with Russia, for the future of European culture and civilization.

He would have been justified in smacking her in the face, in the circumstances. Not immediately, but by the end of her contrived and sustained confrontation.

Kiev-regime announcement

The Kiev regime has announced that it “is not interested” in hanging on to the little strip of land it recently invaded in the Kursk region of Russia.

Translation: the forces of the Kiev regime only made the incursion so that Zelensky and his cabal could claim to Western mass media that they are “winning”, or at least continuing to fight.

In reality, the Kiev-regime incursion forces, mostly press-ganged and poorly-trained serf-soldiers, have been mainly wiped out, and the rest are —literally— dying to be able to drive back over the border to Ukraine and relative safety.

The Kiev-regime incursion was never sustainable; the territory gained for a day or two, or a week or two, could never have been held.

I am worried, though, for the dim Ukrainian soldiers and their grieving, or soon-to-be-grieving families, and also for the Russian civilian families in the Kursk border region, their lives disrupted by this stupid publicity stunt.

At the same time, the Russian advance in the south-east continues steadily.

“Just walked through Huddersfield city centre. Really struck by the starkest of contrasts.

Some older women sat outside a Merrie England cafe (remember ‘em?), trying to enjoy a civilised afternoon tea.

They were surrounded by the stench of weed, people shouting in foreign languages, couples in tracksuits hurling abuse at each other, gangs of lads hanging around, beggars off their faces.

Nothing noteworthy about the scenario – just everyday stuff in yer standard Red Wall town. But I was impressed by the dignity and stoicism of the women. The rest of it almost reduced me to tears.”

[Dr. Philip Kiszely]

I would suggest a few things, but no doubt that would bring the boring police drones to my door once again, as has happened several times in the past decade. They are the footsoldiers of the multikulti “woke” police state now re-energized by Starmer.

Much of urban Britain is now a dustbin.

Strange. I have read about the increase in alcohol consumption during the “lockdown” nonsense or 2020-2021. I went the other way, almost stopping my relatively-modest consumption.

There have been times in my life when I drank little or nothing, other times when my consumption was quite high. I suppose the latter was true of when I was living in the former Soviet Union, in the Caribbean, and in France, as well as when I was practising at the English Bar (during the years 1992-1996 and 2002-2008).

Now, most days, I drink no alcohol at all. No particular reason predominates. It may be partly a function of increasing age (I shall be 68 next month, ironically on the same day as the birthday of “two-tier Keir” Starmer, though he is six years younger than me).

Another reason is that the wines, especially the red wines, that I once liked, such as Chateau Margaux, are extremely expensive (I suppose they always were, but that I notice it more now), or are hard to source (some Moldavian and Georgian wines).

One kind of booze I do like is what the French term eaux de vie, such as 40%+ Kirsch and Poire Williams etc.

A Central and Eastern European taste too, that I must have picked up somewhere or other, is Slivovitz (plum spirit), which UK Lidl had on sale recently (I bought 2 bottles, 42% alc.), and what the Hungarians call palinka, fruit spirit, which may be distilled from one fruit, or a mixture. Apricot is probably my favourite, though I have not had any for well over 20 years.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C3%A1linka; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirsch; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poire_Williams; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slivovitz.

On a hot day, though, beer is often the best drink (apart from water). I used to like (30-40 years ago), Zhiguli beer from Russia, which was at that time sold in the UK, in Selfridges. Czech beer is pretty good, of course, as is some Polish.

When I was living in Turkey for a few months, I liked Tekel beer, made by a State enterprise. It no longer exists, at least in that form.

One type of wine that I liked a lot in the 1980s, and early 1990s, was the kind of white wine produced in Australia at that time, especially heavily-oaked quality Chardonnay. Harder to find now, of the same type. Maybe tastes have changed, and the producers have followed suit..

As I noted on the blog during the “Covid” hysteria, the self-describing “left”, including almost all of the “human rights” tribe, were all in favour of more severe “lockdowns”, more severe penalties, dissidents and people ignoring the “Covid” hysteria to have all civil rights taken away, deprived of all medical treatment, even when entirely unconnected to “the virus” etc.

Indeed, the self-describing “left” has lost of of its former ideology and direction, and seems to exist purely to cheer on the right labels (“Covid”, “Ukraine”, “BLM”, “trans”-whatever) and of course “Labour”, despite Labour (also) having lost all or 99% of its former ethos. That, and to “deplatform” from everywhere possible any people who are labelled derogatively by them.

Professor Tettenborn is someone I met a couple of times in Exeter circa 2002-2003. He was at that time the professor at the law faculty of Exeter University. I was in a small set of barristers (now very much larger and, under another name, the largest in the South West outside Bristol; the former head of my old set is now a Circuit Judge).

I sat with Professor Tettenborn and another as a notional “Lord Justice of Appeal” at a moot competition held in the Guildhall at Exeter in mid-2002. My only day as a Lord Justice of Appeal, or indeed any sort of judge.

Incidentally, the winner of the moot (out of three student contenders) was a young Anglo-Armenian who had engaged in some sharp practice during the competition. We three “Lords Justices of Appeal” discussed disqualifying him, but in the end relented. As a student advocate, he was head and shoulders above the other two students, and we thought that that had to be recognized.

A few years later, as a young barrister, the same person got into trouble over allegations of sex harassment (not in my own Chambers but another set), I heard. Not sure whether that went to the Bar Standards Board (I think it did), but the person in question is still, I believe, at the Bar and still based in Exeter; I think that he was also, quite a few years ago, an unsuccessful Conservative candidate for MP at Exeter.

All a long time ago now.

Professor Tettenborn also made a very cogent case at the Law Commission inquiry as to whether the very bad law known as Communications Act 2003, s.127, should be repealed. That was what was recommended, but the section has so far not been repealed, and is regularly misused either by the police/CPS or by the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism”.

Ironic. I myself was noted at the end of that Law Commission report as having been a contributor, yet was myself later a victim of that same bad law: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/03/16/diary-blog-16-march-2024/.

I hope that the UK police and “Clown” Prosecution Service are paying attention.

The evil in Yvette Cooper is patent. It cannot be concealed.

Expenses cheat. Money-grubber. Pro-mass-immigration. Dishonest. Hypocrite. Member of Labour Friends of Israel. Hostile to free speech. Would-be dictator. I hate everything about Yvette Cooper.

That is the sort of thing that happens when the population of a country only takes interest in rubbish such as spectator team sports, the Olympics, similar mass-oriented TV programming etc, and abdicates its citizen-responsibilities, leaving the field to NWO/ZOG puppets posing as “mainstream” politicians. The UK is much the same, as is the USA.

Typical “British” mainstream media…”Edinburgh man“…rather than “non-European untermensch just off the boat“…

The migration invasion continues unabated

https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20240812-more-than-700-migrants-cross-channel-to-britain-in-single-day

“More than 700 migrants cross the Channel to Britain in a single day.“

[France 24]

700. In a single day. So 700 migrant-invaders, all of which will now “have to be” sheltered, fed, given medical services, provided with cash etc. Call it £20,000 or more each per year, indefinitely. Then add costs of policing, courts, prison etc once some (if only a minority; so be it) start criminal activity. £30,000+ each per year. Overall, in conservative terms, Between £15M and £25M a year. That’s for ONE DAY’S CONTINGENT…

£25M that will now not be spent on British people, for British people’s health, welfare, transport, education, future.

I hate the traitors who enable this, from Starmer and Yvette Cooper (and most other Labour, LibDem and Con MPs) to the narcissistic, smug, allegedly or self-regardingly “well-meaning” idiots who hold up “refugees welcome” signs, tweet virtue-signalling nonsense, or oppose British people protesting about the evil.

I may not agree with everything Katie Hopkins says, and am not quite at one with her ideologically, but she is right about at least some of the big things.

Thankfully, the ridiculous Schauspiel for the masses called “the Olympics” largely passed me by (as usual), apart from my having seen video clips and photos of the “Satanic” (?) opening ceremony.

Of course, the “British” msm went crazy because the supposedly Brit team called “Team GB” won a few meaningless medals. Yawn.

The unlucky Ukrainian soldiers used in the Kursk incursion are, like all the Kiev-regime soldiery, being used by Zelensky’s evil regime as cannon-fodder. Dispensable. Many were press-ganged into service. Few if any now are volunteers.

As blogged previously, even were the Kiev regime forces to reach Kursk (city), the centre of the region, their extended lines would be vulnerable to both air (including missile) attack and also to flank attacks by armour and infantry. I also doubt whether the Kiev-regime forces can resupply an extended line of incursion for very long.

So far, it looks as though the forces of the Kiev regime have penetrated to a depth of about 20 miles from the border line.

“The Kursk offensive comes after weeks of Russian advances in the east, where a succession of villages have been captured by the Kremlin’s forces.” [BBC https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/crkm08rv5m0o].

Note that, until now, the “free” UK/US msm has not reported even in passing that the Russian forces are achieving victory in the south-east and east of Ukraine.

The Kiev-regime incursion may have reached a depth of about 30 miles in some areas, such as the Lezhinka area noted in the BBC report, but that is still a long way (maybe 50 miles) from the city of Kursk itself.

Kursk (city) is about 327 miles from Moscow.

The world-conquering armoured and other forces of the German Reich faltered amid the huge empty spaces of (even) European Russia in the early 1940s. How much more pointless and unlikely to succeed is this Kiev-regime incursion, with its unwilling and poorly-trained soldiers?

In the end, were Russian forces to have to fall back to Kursk (city), which I feel is highly unlikely anyway, the Russian “stavka” (high command) could use masses of advanced conventional weapons such as thermobaric missiles and bombs to completely annihilate the Kiev-regime advance.

Actually, I feel sorry for the Ukrainian soldiers (and their families), who are mere pawns in the corrupt evil game of the Jew Zelensky and his Kiev cabal.

“German expert: The maneuver in Kursk could mark the military end of Ukraine “

An attack on the Kursk area could lead to the military end of Ukraine, because its armed forces are inferior to the Russian army.

The Ukrainian brigades deployed in Donbass are quite worn out and were waiting to be replaced by new forces, which are now used to attack Kursk “, said Gustav Gressel in an interview for “Spiegel”.”

That Graham idiot is a complete Jewish-lobby/Israel lobby puppet, so his idea is not entirely unexpected.

I doubt that many retirement-age American pilots are desperate enough to want to fly for the Kiev regime, though. Even were the pay to be high, so is the chance of coming back to the USA in a body bag (if the pieces can be found). 20 years in the present version of the Gulag Archipelago is also rather uninviting.

I was slightly acquainted in 1996-1997 with a group of civilian American pilots in Kazakhstan, ex-Eastern Airlines, hired to fly the Kazakh President’s Boeing aircraft. Nice fellows, who had been cheated out of their pension in the U.S., but complete fish out of water in the post-Soviet and Russophone environment of Almaty. They could not even say hello or ask for a cup of coffee, and lived an isolated life in a dacha on the edge of town.

I wish I had one!

Eventually, this society will just break under the weight of numbers. Then we’ll see…

Readers may be surprised to see me repost tweets from now-binned former MP [High Peak], Robert Largan, a conscious tool of the Jewish lobby, but I certainly agree with him about the necessity for architecture to be both beautiful and functional.

I have not been to Dresden, though I was once, in 1988, not far away. As to Manchester, I appeared a few times c.2007 as Counsel at the County Court, at that time situated at Crown Square; I believe that the Crown Court still sits there.

I have, once only, seen Piccadilly Gardens, Manchester, but that was even earlier, sometime in the mid-1980s, maybe 1985 or 1986, when the Georgian State Dance ensemble was performing in and around the city (they also went to Preston). The dancers, stage people, interpreters, KGB, and me (unpaid, and uncredited in any way) were all staying in a fairly ghastly hotel called the Britannia, not far from those Gardens (not even a park, but just a flat area of grass, with a few very low and scrubby hedges). I wandered down to pass the time one early evening. Once was enough.

Incidentally, I also saw the Manchester Royal Infirmary, the main hospital, because one of the Georgian dancers had cut his hand right down to the bone as he and others were practising with their swords (part of their spectacular dance act). The swords were razor-sharp, sharpened daily in order to create the sparks that flew during the performance.

The interpreters, including my then girlfriend, were all busy with the performance that evening, so I was asked to accompany the dancer (who only spoke Georgian and Russian, no English) to the hospital in a taxi.

At the hospital, I tried to have him seen to at once (there was a lot of waiting around), and I think we were seen slightly ahead of time, though not soon enough for the Georgian, who though pleasant had the impatience typical of his countrymen. The nurses (if my memory serves) were both pretty and pleasant, as well as efficient (once deployed). So the Georgian survived to fight (onstage) again, and indeed I believe he was the one chosen to meet Mrs. Thatcher when she visited either Moscow or Tbilisi (I think the latter) in a later year.

Those dancers certainly put on a superb show (which I saw for free in Manchester, Preston and some other places). The women in their long costumes seemed to glide rather than walk or dance.

A long time ago now, nearly 40 years…

[a more recent Georgian dance show]

Largan’s comment also refers to the recent statement by thick-as-two-short-planks Angela Rayner, re. Starmer-Labour’s apparent intent to build millions of ugly hutches, in the once green and pleasant countryside, in which to stable migrant-invaders.

MSM lies

So a narrative has been created and is spreading out across mainstream media. I saw it this morning on both BBC News and Sky News.

The narrative goes something like this: “a tiny group of ‘far-right’ social media influencers incited a larger group — but still a tiny proportion of the population— to smash things, to riot, and to express ‘hate’ against non-whites and especially Muslims, but ‘the community’ gathered in huge numbers to beat off their attempts to sow ‘division’.“

In reality, there were fairly large gatherings here and there in protest against what has been happening in the UK, especially as regards migration-invasion, and especially what has been developing in the large cities, over the last 30 years. A much smaller group of silly people went further, looting shops and playing into the hands of the System, which then went into “police state” dictatorial mode. “Useful idiots” also started to demand the shutdown of all free speech platforms, such as Twitter/X.

At the same time, the BBC and Sky started to show a Soviet-style melange of grey-haired people in churches praying for “peace”, and a few large crowds of supposed “antifascists” (posing as “the real citizens” etc).

London has a Metro-area population of 15M, so a crowd of 5,000 or even 15,000 is really a very small percentage, not even a tenth of 1%. In reality, it seems that even the largest “counter-protest” (at Walthamstow in N.E. London) consisted of only about 1,000 persons, many from elsewhere: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c623g0xnrero.

The photo from Brighton, below, seems to show an enormous crowd of “counter-protesters”, but in reality consists of only about 500 people: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp3d9e3e573o

The lesson is— “don’t trust the mainstream media”.

The elephant in the room is mass immigration, which continues, day after day. 100-1,000 daily across the Channel, illegally; also, another 3,000 or so “legally”, by air and sea, every day.

I imagine that the present protests and their riotous offshoots will die out…for now. As to what might happen in a year’s time, or 10 or 20 years, we shall see. I don’t mean street protests that, in themselves, achieve little, but political and para-political upheavals.

The DDR (East Germany) could not hold back popular discontent in the end. Do Starmer and Yvette Cooper think that they can hold back the tide?

…and look at that stupid white (“antifascist”?) woman in a yellow jerkin, standing there smiling inanely as the untermensch advocates mass murder…

I agreed at the time (pre-GE 2024) with Matt Goodwin, and we have both already been proven correct,

Double most of those figures if you substitute “10 years” with “20 years”.

Inevitable, in short, sooner or later. Not a traditional “civil war” though, as I have remarked in the past. A multiform civil/social/ideological/racial conflict, and one without large set-piece battles.

Well, so much for the NATO Treaty…

Kharkov first.

I imagine that the children of one family will need time to adjust. They apparently know no Russian, and were unaware that they themselves are Russian. Psychological problems seem likely.

There it is— “two-tier policing” from “Two-Tier Keir”.

Were I to say that non-Europeans should be eliminated from the UK and the rest of Europe, even were I not to directly incite it, nor specify a method (unlike the untermensch in question), I have no doubt that the Hampshire police (in their role as part of England’s new poundland Stasi) would once again be knocking at my door, and once again be subjecting me to boring nuisance at the very least.

“The leadership election has yet to grip the nation, if my focus groups of ex-Tory voters are anything to go by: “Mel Stride” “Never heard of her” “Robert Jenrick” “Who’s he?” “He used to be the immigration minister” “Well he didn’t do a very good job then, did he” “Kemi Badenoch” “Are these real names?”…

The contenders seem to be one or two white English, one part-Jew, one mixed -race African/English, one full African, and one Indian. Most are pretty brainless, too.

Ashcroft will not be unaware that at least one reason no-one is much interested in the would-be “leaders” is because the Conservative Party is now a total irrelevance. It cannot even make much of an impact in the talking-shop of the Westminster monkeyhouse. Not for the next several years. Maybe never.

Jesus H. Christ! (with apologies to Father Robinson)…what a total waste of space the above creature is, and what a total traitor to European race and culture.

The fact is, whatever happens in the rest of 2024, we know that the end result will be decided in later years, and not in police stations, or in courts, or in the Westminster monkeyhouse.

Many and indeed almost all of the other problems of the UK have been caused, or made much worse, by the migration-invasion that started as long ago as the 1950s, became a river by the 1980s, and became a torrent after 1989 and especially after 2001. The only word that can now describe it is tsunami. It will break this society apart.

At least 2% should be chopped off those figures, the Jewish proportion of the US population. If the known (((ownership))) of the mass media were not as it is, brainwashing the American public, the figure overall would reduce to not much more than that 2%.

That lady is very mistaken though, if she really believes that “legal” immigration is not a problem. Indeed, it is far more of a problem, because 10x or even 20x the number of the “illegals”.

People allegedly part of the more riotous recent protests are not being bailed (as almost all would normally be) prior to sentence (if they pleaded guilty) or prior to trial (if they pleaded not guilty). This is quite obviously covert interference by the political element over the supposedly “independent” judicial element. Indeed, Starmer purported to lay down such practice in his poundland-dictator speech the other day.

Sounds as if Clarkson, of whom I have never much liked the look, has mellowed, or at least learned a little.

He might have added (if he knows) that, while well over 4M people voted Reform UK (more than voted for the LibDems, or the Greens), fewer than 7M voted Conservative, and fewer than 10M voted Labour.

Labour, for all its supposed “landslide”, got only two and a half times the number of votes of Reform UK; not even, in fact.

Out of every 20 eligible voters, only 4 voted Labour. Con 3. Reform UK 2. LibDem 2. Green 1. 8 did not bother to vote.

I know that I make the point almost daily, but people must understand that this Starmer-Labour government or “elected” dictatorship has no real legitimacy, no real mandate. The msm is presenting a false narrative about the General Election.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_Kingdom_general_election#Full_results

Fanatical Jew-Zionist barrister Simon Myerson claiming that the National Front “plotted to blow up Jews“. Untrue. Ahistorical nonsense. The National Front was a genuine and legitimate political party, albeit a fairly small or even fringe one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Front_(UK). Apparently, it still exists, at least in name.

In the 1970s, the National Front was the fourth-largest party in terms of both members and votes, certainly the latter.

As for Myerson, who operates out of Leeds and Manchester, he was recently removed as a Recorder (p/t judge) after having repeatedly abused people on Twitter/X etc, and after having failed to listen to initial “advice” (in effect, an admonishment or reprimand) from the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office.

It may well be that some particular individual NF supporter or member plotted as described by Myerson; have members of the System parties never committed any crimes?

I was once in Hungary, for about a week, and 24 years ago (2001). I never went to Budapest, and travelled from the Romanian frontier to the Austrian frontier (which was then also the EU frontier), staying at Szeged (a pleasant town on the river Tisza) and then in a former Soviet-style “sanatorium” (hotel) by Lake Balaton, where my wife and I had a suite with its own external staircase to the lawned gardens which ran down to the lake, in which I was able to swim.

There was a small bust of Lenin in the bar (in the days of socialist rule, pre-1990, there may or may not have been a bar, but there was in 2001).

I liked what I saw of Hungary: civilized, and the people, the ones I met, reliable and decent.

Starmer and Yvette Cooper are tendentious anti-Brit people. They come out of a history of promoting mass immigration into the UK, and are really traitors to the future of the British people. Both members of Labour Friends of Israel.

Yvette Cooper and Ed Balls, when both were MPs, were expenses cheats and freeloaders; criminals. Now she, a would-be dictator, and member of Labour Friends of Israel, is trying to shut down what free speech still exists. Evil.

There are those on “both sides” trying to frame these fights and protests as revolving solely around white people opposed to Islamism and/or Pakistani Muslims.

The rioting Gypsies of Harehills (Leeds) are not Muslim; neither is the alleged Southport killer. All, however, are non-white, non-European, non-British in any real sense.

If that is accurate, and is what Putin has said, it may mean that he has come to certain conclusions about a possible, and possibly inevitable, “solution”.

Not only is there “two-tier policing” in the UK, but there is also two-tier reporting.

I watched a few minutes of a BBC report from a protest in the North of England yesterday evening. The geeky reporter said that he had just been talking to a leader of the “counter-protest” (unnamed, and not described, other than as said; may have been non-white, Jewish, or an English anarchist or Communist, we do not know), who had given his view. Needless to say, the unverified, anonymously-provided information provided by the said “leader of the counter-protest” was neither challenged by the BBC reporter nor balanced by any view from the English protesters. Typical.

Suddenly, we hear the mouthpieces of “the usual suspects” (e.g. Priti Patel, John Woodcock/”Lord Walney” etc) demanding the recall of Parliament.

Is this Starmer-Labour’s “Reichstag Fire” moment, when very repressive laws and/or “temporary” “measures” will be enacted by Starmer at the behest of (((those behind Starmer))), thus enabling a real police state (modelled on, inter alia, the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic regulations) to come into being?

Fanatical loonie Jew-Zionist Lee Kern describes England, or Britain, or the UK, as a “shithole”. He was, I think, born here, brought up here, and worked here, but has as little real connection with our country as some untermensch straight off a rubber boat on the beaches of Kent.

I saw the same phenomenon, though couched rather more politely (surprisingly) when the egregious lawyer, Mark Lewis, abandoned the UK for Israel (he is still returning from time to time to make money, though); that was in 2018, after he was found guilty in the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal.

As for “sense of purpose” in Israel, its only sense of purpose has to do with its losing struggle to survive. I do not know how long the Israeli state can survive, but former heads of MOSSAD and Shin Beth seem pessimistic about it. Arab populations increasing, Israeli population static; nuclear weapons being developed in Iran; conventional heavy weapons being developed in states around Israel.

“It is true that we have a severe illegal immigration problem, it is true that it is costing the taxpayers billions, it is true that some awful crimes have been committed by these and asylum seekers, it is true that thousands of Hospitality jobs have been lost by housing them in hotels, it is true that social housing is being depleted by this problem. If you’re trying to shut down accounts that highlight that, you’re not for free speech, you’re an authoritarian nut case.“

The pro-immigration types have always liked the British people to assume either that migration(-invasion) is cost-free, or that it actually benefits the UK. It’s rubbish. The overall costs are enormous.

“Hope not Hate”, the misnamed mainly Jewish, and tendentious, “antifascist” organization, supported by some System MPs etc, is apparently now partly-funded by taxpayer monies, a fact of which I was previously unaware.

Note that the guilty party is “Lowles”, not “Knowles“.

I have, for a number of months, if not longer, raised concerns about Starmer, who always reminds me of Khrushchev’s view of Malenkov, i.e. that Malenkov was a “file-clerk type; such people should never be given power, and are dangerous” [see https://www.amazon.co.uk/Khrushchev-Remembers-Nikita-Sergeevich/dp/0316831409].

Look at Starmer. His first crisis as Prime Minister, and what does he do? He retreats to his “legal people” comfort zone. He does not even attempt to unite a country being pulled in different directions by centrifugal forces, as a real leader would.

Starmer threatens new repressive powers, “night courts”, no bail for accused persons (which is beyond his lawful power anyway), prison sentences (ditto). He supports, basically, one side, or rather is against one side, the British side, if you like.

Starmer’s attempt to create fear, eg among those on social media, has had some effect, not on the “bottle-throwers” but on entirely decent English people, many of at least middle-age, who have deleted tweets (often saying simply that they have been labelled “thugs” by Starmer).

Meanwhile, the brainless police have been shown on Twitter/X “bravely” kicking in the door of a lone woman who attended a protest. What else, if anything, did she do? If the police behave like a poundland KGB or Stasi, then public respect for them will (further) plummet.

Well, here we are, one month and one day into the Starmer-Labour “elected” dictatorship.

Oh, and another few hundred, or thousand, migrant-invaders will have crossed the Channel today, ferried in by Border Force and the RNLI (and another thousand —or possibly three thousand— “legal migrants” will have entered the UK via ferries and airliners).

Britain’s poundshop Stasi…

Watch that police “officer” in the clip, her smug attitude, hands in pockets, and the whole attitude of both police. Superficially not harsh, but arresting someone who sounds about 80 for comments (no doubt about the ghastly state of this poor country) made on Facebook!

Police state, even if it is (still? so far?) a “velvet glove” one most of the time.

I think that the time has come, inter alia, for me to share with my dear readers an event that happened at least a month ago. About 5 or 6 weeks ago.

Mid-evening after a warm day. I think a Saturday. Not sure. About 2030. Knock at door. Uniformed policeman there. Had never seen him previously. “Hello, what’s the problem?“; to which he answers “why would there be a problem?“, at which I have to politely explain that my wife and I do not have the police at our door every day…

It turns out that I am being questioned (and filmed on bodycam) for tweets made on Twitter/X. I am told right from the start that “there is no need to worry“, because the matter had “already been NFA’d“, meaning “No Further Action”.

I was too surprised by being buttonholed to ask why, in that case, a policeman had once again come to my door (not that exact policeman, but in the past decade, several real police and/or joke “PCSO” fake police).

The policeman showed me a kind of photostat or copy of what might have been a tweet, but he objected when I tried to take or (as my wife says I always do) snatch the paper to look at it properly (once a barrister, always a barrister…).

The heading seemed to be something like “Ian#IStandWithCorbyn“

Anyway…I told the police that I had actually not had a Twitter/X account, nor tweeted anything at all, for about six years, since 2018, when a pack of Jews (I diplomatically put it as “a Jewish organization“) had complained about me to —pre-Elon Musk— Twitter, as a result of which Twitter had shut down my account permanently (and that I had never bothered to reinstate the account).

After that, the policeman, absurdly, would not let me examine the tweet or tweets, on the basis that the material would be confidential if not mine (why, if the tweet was public anyway?). The police today need a Franz Kafka to chronicle their absurd rules and protocols.

Anyway, after that, and a joke or two (from me), the policeman thanked me and departed stage left (not pursued by a bear, sadly).

So the police can send someone over a claimed tweet allegedly by me, which tweet had already been marked as “NFA” but, when a wheel was stolen from my car about 18 months ago, they did absolutely nothing. Useless.

I was too surprised to ask why they thought that the “Ian” of the tweet (if he even exists) was thought to have been me. Do the police think that no-one else in the UK is called Ian? God knows.

No wonder crime is flourishing, when the police seem to be uninterested in, and indeed incapable of doing, their proper job, yet take seriously malicious complaints from (((the usual suspects))) about supposed comments on Twitter/X, Facebook etc.

Who would best chronicle the way Britain now is— Franz Kafka, or Lewis Carroll?

What interests me is how these “liberal” scribblers, talking heads, lawyers etc all talk a good “human rights” game until someone tries to stand up for European race, culture and civilization. Then the “liberal” System/msm types are all in favour of locking people up for merely stating a view, let alone actually attending a protest…

Plymouth now. I think Royal Parade, one of the main streets, near to Armada Way, where I often, in the years 2002-2007, used to appear as Counsel in front of a varied group of judges at the Plymouth County Court.

Plymouth could be a great city, but isn’t. Badly-run for decades, basically.

As to the protests generally, BBC News dragged out Brendan Cox, the sex-pest of years ago, whose MP wife was assassinated. Cox was at one time getting hundreds of thousands a year from charities for his salaried work. One of the “favoured” of the present System set-up and its msm. One of the Prominente favoured by the multikulti msm, if you like.

Why does that person have any locus standi at all to discuss, or lay down, what does or does not constitute “legitimate” free speech?

Mass immigration has affected, and largely ruined, huge areas of British life— housing provision, pay levels, State benefits, including pensions, crime, terrorism, the roads, railways, education, culture generally, even water supply.

That may be a logical fallacy, to assume connection, or causative connection, but at the same time he may be right.

Quite. Just like would-be tyrant-woman Yvette Cooper, who even had the gall to say that British families should allow migrant-invaders to stay in their homes. Needless to say, she and her equally-expenses-cheating husband, Ed Balls (who together own several houses and flats) are not accommodating any migrant-invaders.

Fear? Think how many Muslims there now are in the UK (England especially). Nearly 4 million. Most are quiescent most of the time but, if inflamed by their own leaders, and/or by pro-active policing, and if organized (even locally) they could easily take down both the police and the now-very-depleted Army. Think about it.

English people are generally not organized when it comes to political protesting. Usually easily-controlled by the authorities.

“Stop saying “far right thugs”

Say violent offenders on ALL sides

In a sense, the migration-invasion of the UK (and Europe generally) is the tsunami overshadowing the smaller events under it (such as the present urban upheavals in England).

The new and rubbish “Labour”-label Government talks a hard game, but behind that, the migration-invasion continues unchecked, unabated. Sooner or later, this society will break, whatever political pygmies of the Yvette Cooper and Starmer type may say (or do).

Reminds me of the last days of the German Reich, with Hitler and the generals of the OKW (Oberkommando der Wehrmacht—German High Command) moving wooden plaques, representing SS-Panzer and other forces, mostly by then non-existent, across huge maps, while, not so far away, the enormous Soviet armies advance relentlessly, ever closer to Berlin.

Ha. I wonder what my probation officer would make of that, were she to read my blog?

Yes, dear readers, those of you who are not regular readers of the blog…I myself am, in effect, on probation, the result of my free speech trial, conviction, and sentence (trial November 2023; sentence March 2024).

15 “rehabilitation days” (in fact, mostly fairly short meetings, so far), and a financial impost, being the (notional) costs of trial— £734 in all, a third of which was crowdfunded by a few generous donors.

Diary Blog, 16 March 2024, including an account of my recent free speech trial and sentencing

…thus it was that, thanks to the Jew-Zionists, and their police and “Clown” Prosecution Service dupes, I joined the “criminal classes”, or at least the convict classes.

Actually, I rather like my probation officer, despite the fact that, ideologically, at least as I apprehend, we are poles apart. My next scheduled meeting will be in September.

The whole Kafka-esque situation rather tickles me (when it does not irritate me), though of course I should never have been subjected to nuisance and inconvenience, should never have been charged, certainly should never have been convicted and, even then, should have received by way of sentence something purely nominal, such as a £50 fine (if anything).

That really is amazing.

It may be anthropomorphizing on my part, but the snake actually seems grateful, somehow.

As I have said for months —if not years— Labour, Starmer-Labour, will “solve” the illegal Channel crossings by simply rubberstamping 90%-95% of applications in France (or even in Africa and Asia), thus magically turning illegal migrant-invaders into nominally “legal” ones.

The remaining 5%-10% will then still try to cross the Channel anyway and, once here, will not be deported, just as at present.

Starmer-Labour has even less intention than Sunak-Conservatism of stopping mass immigration aka migration-invasion. Once you read about the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, all will be made clear…

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

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Camp_of_the_Saints The Camp of the Saints (French: Le Camp des Saints) is a 1973 French dystopian fiction novel by author and explorer Jean Raspail.[1][2][3] A speculative fictional account, it depicts the destruction of Western civilization through Third World mass immigration to France and the Western world. Almost forty years after its initial publication, the novel returned to the bestseller list in 2011.[4]]

World literature is, of course, replete with novels that, later, became true, at least in some slightly modified form.

Starmer-Labour is a falsely-“elected” dictatorship, and even tyranny, which, even more than the last 14 years of fake “Conservative” misrule, offers the people nothing.

How about detaching the very few “rioters” from the thousands of entirely-legitimate protesters? Not to mention the tens of millions who want England to be England, not a rubbish dump for people from the most backward parts of the world?

In fact, where was David Davis, where was Starmer, where was Yvette Cooper, when the Gypsies of Harehills (Leeds) were rioting, only a week or so ago? Nowhere, or excusing them. Same with the Bangladeshi rioters in East London.

The System is trying to demonize all white (i.e. English) dissenters or dissidents by focussing the msm on a few bottle-throwers. Also, of course, ignoring the fact that our society is slowly collapsing, and mainly by reason of mass immigration.

What lovely creatures.

System MPs, System scribblers, and System TV talking heads are almost all in favour of mass immigration. Enemies of the people and of the future of the people.

All major rebellions or uprisings carry along with them a “hooligan” element. Indeed, Bukovsky [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Bukovsky; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Bukovsky#To_Build_a_Castle_(1978)] and some other Soviet dissidents believed that the Hungarian Uprising of 1956 was so effective (initially) because of the Budapest “hooligan” element. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_Revolution_of_1956. Secret policemen, prosecutors etc were hanged by the rebels.

What Britain needs, though, is not an urban riot scenario but a disciplined social-national movement, something which at present does not exist.

“Our wonderful NHS”…

Superficially, System political commentator Iain Dale’s tweet commends the NHS, but not if you look a little further.

My first wife, an American, suddenly had terrible pain one Saturday morning in 1991 (I think it was). We drove to a general practitioner doctor in a small strip mall nearby. She had not been to him before but in the USA it is not usually necessary to be registered (unlike, as I believe, in the UK) to get an emergency appointment like that.

The small doctor’s office had no-one waiting, so once a patient left (about 5 mins), the Italian-American GP saw my then wife. He diagnosed her (it later turned out, entirely correctly), within a few minutes, as having a gall bladder problem, and suggested a couple of possible hospitals. He then charged her USD $25, cash on the nail.

We drove to the suggested hospital, about a 25-minute drive down the Garden State Parkway.

[Garden State Parkway, New Jersey, USA]

The suggested hospital was not very far from the Parkway, half a mile perhaps.

A modern hospital, the car park almost empty (and no charge for parking, unlike the absurd and sometimes stressful situation in the UK).

On entering, I think no-one there except a couple of uniformed nurses or whoever behind a glass-screened reception desk.

My then wife, in some pain, explained her problem, and was asked what insurance she had. That was not a problem, because she had a high level of medical insurance that went with her job (she was an employee of the U.S. Federal Government). She was then admitted through the security door and escorted away by a nurse. I was asked to wait.

A short time later, the reception person told me that the Head of Surgery would be down to speak with me. Imagine that in the NHS…

The Head of Surgery was a tweed-suited character, redolent of reassurance and expertise, like a surgeon in a Hollywood film, and sporting a full white beard, a bit like Sigmund Freud but more solid-looking and self-confident than Freud as seen in the photo below.

[Sigmund Freud https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmund_Freud]

I was greeted pleasantly by the Head of Surgery, and informed that my wife had to have a gall-bladder operation and that that would be done either later that day or the next day.

In the end, my first wife spent three days in hospital, mostly on her own in a comfortable if rather white/cream and basic room (no wards in that hospital, unlike the UK; France also has only individual or shared rooms).

On discharge, the bill was itemized minutely, despite everything being covered by insurance, and nothing needing to be paid by us. It was posted to us a couple of days later (for our records only). I think that it was (33 years ago) about USD $24,000. Expensive… thank God for the insurance.

Two or maybe three nights stay, one operation, medications, other stuff used, food, drink etc.

So, thinking about that, and comparing that to Iain Dale’s experience, I have no idea how long Dale suffered before even getting a consultation and diagnosis. Not same-day, anyway. Weeks? Months?

Then again, how many NHS patients with similar-level problems (excruciating pain but nothing immediately life-threatening) would get immediate attention, immediate hospitalization, and almost immediate surgery? (I think the operation was done the following day).

Of course, in the UK you can get quicker attention if you pay privately, or have BUPA insurance etc. I have no idea whether Dale was in an NHS hospital or not. All, the same, his operation is scheduled for six weeks’ time! My first wife only had to wait for about 20 hours.

I am of course not medically qualified, but I thought that that experience was worth recounting.

Naturally, the elephant in the room is insurance or money. Without one or the other, I wonder whether an American would get even medicines or painkillers, let alone surgery; I cannot say. We hear that 40% of Americans are either uninsured or under-insured. The only good thing Obama did was to try to reform that situation (as I understand it). I do not know what Medicaid and Medicare might now offer.

“Free at point of use” healthcare is the NHS trump card, of course.

Few would want to import the American healthcare system to the UK, with the American inequities and money-orientation. However, the NHS is now a pretty basic service in most respects, as compared to many advanced countries. Too many people accept its deficiencies and treat it more like an object of veneration than a useful service, a service which, however, now needs to be properly reformed.

Incidentally, a year prior to the above events, my first wife had been recommended to have a scan, in relation to something else, and had been given a choice of seven hospitals within a 30-mile range where that could be done. In the same year, 1990 I think, one of the largest teaching hospitals in the UK, King’s College Hospital, Denmark Hill (South London) had had to appeal for donations from the public to get such a scanner machine. I recall the banner (like a big red thermometer) hanging on the outside of the hospital when I often passed by c.1990.

Late thoughts about Starmer

Saw Starmer making part of his statement, or threats, really, on TV news earlier this evening. A few thoughts came to mind.

Firstly, it is clear that the events across the country have frightened both Starmer and equally-rattled Yvette Cooper. They both looked scared, behind the threats and bluster.

Second, only a month after the General Election, it is clear that Starmer has woken up to the fact that the British people have no love for him and Labour, despite the electorally-rigged “landslide”. He knows that only 4 out of every 20 eligible voters voted Labour. In his heart, he must know that he really has no mandate.

Thirdly, Starmer has decided to rule by threats and fear. He wants to make people, “ordinary” citizens, fear the consequences even of attending a protest, or talking about events online. The tactics of a police state.

Fourthly, Starmer said that people arrested by reason of any of the above would be remanded in custody, i.e. not given bail. That is not Starmer’s decision to make, not so long as the UK retains any vestiges of being either a “free country” (though that ship has sailed, I think) or even “a society under law”.

It is not for a political office-holder, which is all that Starmer is, to effectively instruct (whether on the TV news or otherwise) magistrates, District Judges, and Crown Court judges as to whether they will grant bail or not.

A month into office, and Starmer-Labour already looks like a panicked police state.

This will not end well.

Paul Mason, the pseudo-revolutionary System drone. I may be wrong, but he always gives me the impression of being a state and/or System asset of some kind.

That “Paul Shilly” person is the type I struggle to understand. Do people like him really think that the UK (or Europe in general) can take in millions, then tens or even hundreds of millions, of mostly very backward, useless, parasitic migrant-invaders, without limit? Do they really think that UK society can survive endless waves of backward parasites and/or enemies reaching our shores? Or do they secretly know that the migration invasion will destroy both society and our root-stock, and is that what the traitors really want?

Social-media “slacktivism” alone will not accomplish anything, of course.

Many people on Twitter/X talking about trivia such as “was he [the killer] really only 17?” and “why not name and shame him?”, as if that matters much.

The big picture is that the UK is now full of non-Europeans, who now comprise about 20% of the population (far more in London and other cities and towns).

The majority of the non-Europeans here, indeed the vast majority, are of no use whatever to an advanced economy and society (which Britain was and could again become, indeed to some extent still is). A substantial minority of the non-Europeans are also actively criminal, or enemies of the British people. Of course, only a tiny minority commit massacres, but why should the British people accept any such outrages?

Part of that big picture view includes the fact that between half a million and a million migrant-invaders are entering and staying in the UK every year at this point.

The response of the revived corpse of “New Labour”, now under Israel-puppet Starmer, is to conceal the truth, to try to turn “illegals” to “legal migrants” via a rubber-stamp (the primary weapon of a type such as Starmer), and to destroy what is left of the English countryside by building ugly hutches for the migrants and others.

Rachel Reeves makes a lot more than that. The £90,000 is merely MP salary. As Chancellor, she gets about the same again, and has had other concealed income streams. Plus substantial investments.

Of course, Sophie Corcoran is a typical “Conservative” pseudo-“libertarian”, and Starmer-Labour is merely a hopeless mixture of Blair-Brown “New Labour” and the past 14 years of “Conservative” misgovernment.

Planning madness

https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/24467184.uproar-larling-plans-nearly-2-000-new-homes/

“Villagers in a hamlet which has around 100 homes have reacted with anger to proposals to build more than 2,000 new properties on their doorsteps.

Locals in Larling argue the area, which does not have mains sewage, is wildly unsuited to a development of such a scale.

The project would effectively turn it from one of Norfolk’s smallest villages to one of its largest – or create a new village altogether on its outskirts.

Larling, close to the A11 between Thetford and Attleborough, has been a late addition to Breckland Council’s local plan, which sets out where new homes can be built over the next two decades.“

[Eastern Daily Press]

Similar madness is all over England now.

The madder thing is that hardly any English people are having children; who who are, are having one, or two. Below replacement level. Only the blacks and browns are having 3 or 4, or more, children.

Then, of course, the UK is importing 500,000-1,000,000 unwanted immigrants, mostly non-white, every single year now. Unsustainable, even in sheer numerical terms.

I do not know exactly when this society will break, but the signs are everywhere now. Quite soon, I think. Years rather than decades.

That Norfolk idea has apparently been put forward by or via a typically-greedy farming family, the Lewin family (see the newspaper report). They will end up with many millions if that development goes ahead. Probably about £20M. I have little time for the kind of farmers England now mostly has. Greedy moneygraspers, many of them.

Note how weasel Pierce says that the alleged Southport murderer is “British” just because born in Wales (to African parents). If I were born in China, would I be Chinese? I think not.

So there is our “free” mass media. A “diverse” panel consisting of one little gay pro-immigration “Conservative”, one pseudo-revolutionary “British” Indian woman, and some stray black unknown to me. All pushing the same line…

I think that, the way things are going, the British people are going to take matters into their own hands, as at Southport. Not in a (very) planned or co-ordinated way (bearing in mind the degree of snooping that the poundland police state now indulges in, and the Kafka-esque misuse of “anti-terror” laws), but as now not infrequently seen, events flaring up, perhaps though leading to serious political upheaval as well, over time.

By 2034, there will be another 5M-10M non-whites in the UK, mostly in England, mostly in the cities. Plus maybe a few million births. What then?

UK, Eire, France, Germany, Italy, Spain. The problem is a pan-continental one.

[and you know what kind of (((influence))) is behind Yvette Cooper].

“The Tunisian revolution began with a street vendor. Everyone knows the wider issues are the problem and it snowballs.

In the UK the problem is importing 10 million foreigners did not increase quality of life. It brought murder, rape, terrorism, wage stagnation, house price explosion etc.

But worst of all political gridlock on any solution to stop the inflow never mind reverse the damage. ~40% of the Labour vote comes from non-natives. They only got 33% in the election, without the imports they would have only got ~20%. This mindset of promoting foreigners and suppressing natives is representative of almost no one.”

Very true. As I have explained several times, at GE 2024, out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 did not vote, probably out of disgust with the System. Another 4 out of 20 voted Labour; 3 voted Con, 2 Reform UK, 2 LibDem, and 1 Green. In rough outline.

In other words, only 4 people out of every 20 voted Labour. If, as is certainly the case, half of the Labour vote was from the ethnic minorities, that means that only 2 out of 20 real British people voted Labour.

Labour really has no mandate at all, or at best a very marginal one.

Free speech is being taken away. Elections have become almost meaningless. Our (real) human and civil rights are being eroded fast, replaced by fake ones. The late President Kennedy said something about that sort of situation:

“We are ruled by a nefarious group of individuals that have an unquenchable thirst for power, control and money, and they don’t care what they have to do to get it. And that includes tricking people into thinking they are the virtuous good guys who are here to keep us all safe.

And tragically, millions of people are completely duped by this. What we have witnessed over the Covid response, the war in Ukraine, the Net Zero agenda on climate change and many other current issues is a movement of faux-virtue that has been carefully crafted by corrupt politicians, messengers within legacy media outlets, greedy corporations, messiah delusional billionaires and undemocratic technocrats to create the impression that they are the virtuous ones who are our friends.“

The whole quite long tweet is worth reading.

Many msm scribblers today are twenty-somethings with zero background knowledge. Many cannot even write or spell properly.

Prepare for “their” (((victim))) mode to be deployed…

Not only is this “Labour”-label regime an “elected” dictatorship (“elected” by 4 people out of every 20), but one without ideas, without ideals, intent only on power and the exercise of repression.

Coudenhove-Kalergi also thought that a caste of Jew and part-Jews should rule over the bastardized European mixed-race population, once that was created or being created. Now look— David Cameron-Levita, George Osborne, Theresa May, “Boris” Johnson etc. As for Starmer, not Jewish, but with Jewish wife, just like Jenrick and others.

Rachel Reeves has no “plan”, just a tick-box idea of “balancing the books”. cf. David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne.

Look at what she herself has decided to do, along with her boss, fellow Labour Friends of Israel member Starmer.

Infrastructure investment slashed, which is the worst-possible choice (though some projects are useless, notably HS2). More money for the subsistence of unwanted migrant-invaders. Pensioners to lose a lifeline. No new hospitals. Yet pay rises of 22.3% (over 2 years) for junior hospital doctors most of whom are useless, and most if not all of whom will be on far higher levels of income within a few years of seniority.

That last reminded me of a major league baseball players’ strike when I lived in the USA over 30 years ago. The strike was bitter and crowned with success eventually. The demand was that all major league baseball players should get $100,000 a year minimum (I suppose you could at least double the value today). Not unreasonable, arguably, though it was several times the average pay of Americans as a whole. The joke was that only 1% of all major league baseball players at that time received pay of less than $100,000 anyway. Most were in the several hundreds of thousands a year, with a substantial minority getting over a million a year.

The “trans” nonsense has become utterly ridiculous. Having said that, women should not be boxing anyway.

Less than a month since GE 2024, and Starmer-Labour is already the “elected” dictatorship I predicted. I say “elected“, of course, because only 4 out of every 12 voters who voted, voted Labour (only 4 out of 20 of all eligible voters— 8 out of 20 did not vote at all).

We are not ruled by “Labour” or “Conservative” labels, but by NWO/ZOG puppets. There is no substantial difference between the “two main parties”.

…and there are “alternative” NWO/ZOG puppets, less important ones, too: “Tommy Robinson”, Reform UK, Farage, Tice etc.

What has been absent from comment is the sheer malice of the recent announcement. I see Rachel Reeves as an extremely malicious person, and she will be well aware of the fact that few people aged 65+ vote Labour.

“Zelensky: We will discuss the issue of Ukraine’s borders with the respective countries.

Kyiv-based political scientist Andrei ZOLOTARYOV believes that Zelensky is “preparing to sell the truce to the Ukrainians as a victory.”

Washington Post: Armed forces of Ukraine exhausted, a critical situation is emerging for the Ukrainian army on the front with elements of “serious chaos”.”

Surely, if the Kiev-regime forces are exhausted, this is the moment for a general advance of Russian armour and infantry across eastern Ukraine, not for a truce, from the Russian point of view?

“The US allowed the use of nuclear weapons because of Ukraine The United States may use nuclear weapons because of the desperate situation in Ukraine, former CIA analyst Ray McGovern said in an interview with the YouTube channel Dialogue works. “The situation in Ukraine now is that the Russians have virtually defeated Ukraine, and so the United States has a choice between a humiliating defeat and perhaps dropping one of these low-yield nuclear weapons,” he said.“

If the USA uses nuclear weapons on Russian forces, it can kiss goodbye to the top 50 American cities, including Washington DC, New York, LA, Philadelphia, Houston, Denver, Chicago, San Francisco, San Diego, and Boston.

Don’t instigate nuclear war. It could put humanity back thousands of years.

Helen Pitcher and the Criminal Cases Review Commission scandal

https://www.theguardian.com/law/article/2024/jul/18/ccrc-chair-helen-pitcher-rejects-call-to-resign-andrew-malkinson-case

“The chair of the Criminal Cases Review Commission has rejected calls from the justice secretary to resign after a report on its handling of the Andrew Malkinson case laid bare “a catalogue of failures”.

The new justice secretary, Shabana Mahmood, said Pitcher was “unfit to fulfil her duties” and that she was seeking her removal in light of the findings. It is understood that she made her position clear to Pitcher on Thursday morning in the hope that she would resign.

But Pitcher said she was the “best person” for the job and that she had no intention of standing down.

James Burley, who led Appeal’s investigation into Malkinson’s case, said the report was “utterly damning” and detailed “a catalogue of failures by the CCRC”.

He said: “No one can doubt now that the CCRC is a broken safety net which sets the bar unreasonably high for innocent prisoners trying to clear their names. The CCRC must be completely overhauled.”

[The Guardian]

[Helen Pitcher, useless “quangocrat”]

I had never heard of Helen Pitcher, so I looked her up online: https://www.legalwomen.org.uk/helenpitcher.html.

“Helen Pitcher OBE Chair of the Judicial Appointments Commission talked to Bhini Phagura from Raydens solicitors about her career.

Tell us about your career progression which led to your appointment as the Chair of the Judicial Appointments Commission:

“I studied law at QMC London and used this degree as a basis for a career in commerce, where I rapidly progressed up the ranks to become an Executive and Divisional Director in Grand Metropolitan. I retained a footprint in the law in various roles related to Standards, Fairness, Equity and Diversity.“

Well…wouldn’t you just know it?

There’s more:

“The first role I held in parallel to my Commercial career was as a lay representative of the Professional Conduct and Complaints Committee of the Bar Council.” [now split into the Bar Standards Board and the Bar Disciplinary Tribunal].

Yes, there is usually at least one useless woman of this sort sitting (well-paid, too), but doing nothing, when a Bar Disciplinary Tribunal sits. In 5-person tribunal cases (as mine was, in fact wrongly— it should have been a 3-person tribunal, which has no power to disbar) there are usually two such women (they always seem to be women, as on benches of lay magistrates), invariably a pair of unsmiling and stupid “bookends”. Useless box-tickers. See also https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/.

“I also became a lay representative on the Employment Appeal Tribunal and still hold this office.

I then joined the Queens Counsel (as it was then) Selection Panel and rapidly became its chair. Whilst there we improved the Diversity Statistics.“

Again the “diversity statistics“… Why am I not at all surprised?

“I held this role for 9 years. On stepping down, I decided not to apply for another role as I also had a burgeoning Consultancy and Portfolio Career. About 18 months later, however, an advertisement for the role of the Chair of the CCRC (Criminal Cases Review Commission) was brought to my attention.

Last year the role of Chairman at the JAC (Judicial Appointments Commission) became available. A Headhunter contacted me having uncovered my background on LinkedIn. I checked with the MoJ that there was no conflict of interest and submitted my application. On December 31st following a Justice Select Committee earlier in the month, I was appointed and took up the post on January 16th [2023].”

My role as chair involves leading the Board, ensuring appropriate oversight on governance and providing appropriate challenge and support to the executive. I am also involved in some of the most senior appointments.

I have rationalised my portfolio (which was a Commitment I gave to the JSC) in order to ensure I have the appropriate amount of time to devote to this key role.

You are holding this role for 3 years from January 2023, what are your aims/goals?

The strategic aims were already set, however they are due for a refresh as the period they covered draws to a close. These aims, which are developed in conjunction with the Board and executive, are on our website and thus in the public domain.

Our primary purpose set out by statute is to recruit on merit, our secondary (and no less important role) is to assist the rest of the judicial system to increase the diversity pool. It is for this reason that I also chair the Judicial Diversity Forum, which has a clear action plan to achieve its aims.”

So the secondary role is as important as the primary one? How muddled and wrongheaded is the stupid woman?

[Legal Women (online-only) magazine]

The interview is rather badly written, unfortunately, with superfluous upper-case here and there; as can be seen, it is the product of an Indian woman.

Well, there we have it. That greedy and plainly incompetent Pitcher woman has made a whole career, and no doubt a very lucrative one, out of “diversity”, tokenism etc. First of all, in her own person, by being a “token woman”, or one token woman, on commercial and quango boards. Secondly, by being a Trojan horse for more “diversity” and “inclusion” (etc) in important public offices.

Helen Pitcher, who seems to me to be a useless “diversity” box-ticker, has, inter alia, sat in the seat of judgment over employment appeal cases, over the cases of supposedly defaulting barristers etc, and has even been (and apparently still is) the head of the body which appoints judges, including those at the highest level.

cf. Paula Vennells [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paula_Vennells] and Dido Harding [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dido_Harding] and many many others.

Helen Pitcher is, at time of writing, doing, and of course getting paid for doing, several different jobs simultaneously. She is probably making between half a million and a million pounds a year. For what? Ruining various bodies? Ticking various “diversity” and “anti-racism” boxes? Shoving our society further into the mire?

Look at how Helen Pitcher is clinging on to her CCRC role, presumably in order to maximize the money she gets before she is forced out. At least, that seems to me to be her motivation. Very telling, if so.

This latest scandal, including Helen Pitcher’s “march through the institutions”, is so typical of the way in which things generally have been allowed to develop in the UK in the past 30+ years.

You can see the way the UK is going, at least partly because of stupid and over-promoted women such as Helen Pitcher (and, yes, also men, not infrequently)— straight down.

God knows what state this country will be in in 2029 or 2034, let alone 2054 (which last I shall not have to witness, thank God, not from the Earth plane anyway).

“Andrew Malkinson calls miscarriage of justice watchdog’s ex-head ‘shameless’

Helen Pitcher resigned from the CCRC saying she had been ‘scapegoated’ over Malkinson’s case

Emily DuganTue 14 Jan 2025 19.51 GMTShare

Andrew Malkinson has called the former head of the miscarriage of justice watchdog “shameless” as she resigned from the job saying she had been “scapegoated for entirely legitimate decisions” taken over his case.

Helen Pitcher handed in her resignation as chair of the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) on Tuesday afternoon after learning that an independent panel had concluded by a majority of two to one that she was no longer fit to be chair.

In a letter to the justice secretary she said she felt that she had been chosen as a “scapegoat at an early stage” for the Malkinson case and that “a head had to roll and I was chosen for that role”.

Malkinson said: “Helen Pitcher’s attempt to portray herself as the victim here is shameless.

The Guardian revealed that Pitcher had been in Montenegro promoting her property business in the weeks after Malkinson’s conviction was overturned and the organisation was in crisis after its failure to apologise to him.“

[Guardian]].

“Her property business” (as well as all the rest)?

Helen Pitcher thus managed to blag another 6-7 months’ pay and expenses, and pension contributions, when she should have resigned in mid or early 2024.

“Shameless” indeed, the horrible and avaricious old hag.

“Summary of the Israeli strike according to what is known so far: – Approximately 25 F-15 and F-35 aircraft, accompanied by refueling planes, flew about 2000 kilometers toward the city of Hodeidah in Yemen.

– The strike was carried out in 8 waves.

-The attack destroyed fuel depots, inflicted damage on the port, and destroyed a power station north of the port.

– The fire is still burning and is expected to continue for several more days.

– There is a power outage across the entire region.

– The message of the strike is clear: this is not a strike on military targets (which has been done by the coalition over the past 9 months) but an attack on the already struggling Yemeni economy, causing significant economic damage.

– The attack on the port is a direct response to the damage Yemenis have caused to the port of Eilat.

– The message to the rest of the Middle East is also clear: the Bandar Abbas port and the Kharg Island, from where most of Iran’s oil is exported, are in Israel’s sights, as well as the port of Beirut.

– Israel has decided to take off the gloves; this is not a minor strike like those in Iran.

– The Houthis are threatening to retaliate, but it is unclear what the threat entails, as they have already attacked Israel 200 times.”

Middle East, Ukraine, Eastern Europe, Far East. All now under threat of major regional wars.

“Ukraine lines are collapsing. After 380 billions of aid pledged to Ukraine since the war begin; 118 billion are direct military aid; many countries literally emptied out entire inventory countless military units to give their weapons to Ukraine. Ukraine is STILL losing grounds everyday. Lost 5 towns in the past 48hrs. The fortress city of Krasnohorivka is falling as we speak; Russia threatens cut the Oskil Frontlines in half with the likely capture of Pishchane. Still not collapsing? This is not collapse of frontlines, then what is?“

“Back to the UK tomorrow. I’ve never had such dread about Britain. Coming back to London and knowing how unpleasant it’ll be. The demographic changes and feeling that [the UK] is most against Brits. The lack of functional media. The feeling something big has to happen to restore order.“

[Charlotte Gill]

Plenty of Twitter-twits replying to all that and saying how wonderful London still (?) is, but I lived in (mostly) Central or near-Central London, on and off, for 22 years (1976 to 1998, though spending also many years either elsewhere in the country or overseas), and I should not want to live there today: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2022/06/30/diary-blog-30-june-2022-including-impressions-of-a-trip-to-dystopian-london/.

I have not been to London since that brief visit in 2022, and am glad of it. I no longer have the Rolex watches I had 25+ years ago (or want them, or need them, or can afford them) but, if I did, I think that they would not stay on my wrist very long in the London of 2024.

Why can people who should know better not accept the truth that is in front of their eyes? In a word, deluded.

One aspect of London that seems to have radically improved in recent years, though, is the public transport network. New lines, new trains, new ways of travelling around the conurbation. Crossrail/Elizabeth Line for one. I do not speak, however, from personal experience of the new lines, just from what I have read online.

Well over 20 years ago, in 2000, I happened to meet and get to know (somewhat), in Bournemouth, a young blonde woman (20 or so) I first encountered in a photography shop, and who was very proud of her father, vice-Chancellor of (if I remember aright) Lancaster University. She talked about him rather a lot, and thus I learned that (again, if I remember aright) his salary was over £200,000 a year, which would be pretty good even today, by most people’s standards. In fact, the Bank of England online calculator shows that you could almost double that in today’s money. So today— maybe £400,000.

The tertiary educational sector in the UK has been a kind of “rotten borough” for a long time. At least 30 years.

Matt Goodwin

I notice that the “alt-Right” (?) academic and commentator, Matt Goodwin, has retweeted a tweet about the UNRWA by the malicious and publicity-seeking Jew-Zionist org, “Campaign Against Antisemitism”. Foolish. The credibility of that malicious cabal is shot; even most pro-Israel Jews are against its activities and behaviour. By retweeting the “CAA”, Goodwin risks his own credibility too.

My understanding was that Japan had withdrawn from whale hunting in the Southern Ocean, and would only be whaling in Japan’s own Exclusive Economic Zone [EEZ]. Maybe I was too optimistic: see https://edition.cnn.com/2024/05/30/asia/japan-whaling-mothership-kangei-maru-intl-hnk/index.html; and https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/may/02/japan-whale-meat-industry-kangei-maru-mother-ship.

I do not trust Japanese intentions.

The Japanese only have one new whaling ship, though…

Many of us are well aware of what will eventually have to be done, but we are “not allowed” to say it, let alone do it…

I agree with that. Michelle Obama? Maybe not so easily defeated. All the blacks would vote for her, for a start.

If anyone other than Trump takes on the U.S. Presidency, the Americans will be staring civil war in the face. The rest of the world (as well as the USA) will be staring at, quite likely, a world war, starting (like the first two “world” wars) in Europe.

An omen.

From the newspapers

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/jul/18/keir-starmer-says-he-is-open-to-processing-asylum-seekers-offshore

“Keir Starmer is looking into plans to process asylum seekers outside the UK as part of a rethink of the government’s immigration policies, even as a returns agreement with the EU appears more distant than ever.

The prime minister said on Thursday he was open to the idea of Britain processing claims offshore, after a day spent discussing illegal migration with fellow European leaders at Blenheim Palace. Those talks, as part of the European Political Community summit, included a meeting with Edi Rama, the Albanian prime minister, whose country processes asylum claims on behalf of Italy.

But he said a deal to return refused asylum seekers to the EU was low on his list of priorities, as the French president, Emmanuel Macron, warned his country was not willing to shoulder the additional burden.

“But look, I’m a practical person. I’m a pragmatist. And I’ve always said we’ll look at what works and where cases can be processed closer to origin, then that is something which of course ought to be looked at.”

[The Guardian]

As I have been predicting for many months on the blog, Starmer will “solve” the “small boats” migration invasion, meaning get it off the TV news agenda, by simply “processing” the applications of the invaders long before they reach the UK, whether that be in France, in Albania, in Italy, or even in Africa.

“Processing” will mean, in this context, rubberstamping 90% or more of the applications. Probably more, looking at how about 80% of the applications of the present wave of invaders are eventually approved once they land in the UK (and the rest not deported anyway).

What about those, the small minority no doubt, who apply for asylum in those extra-territorial processing centres or offices but are refused? Is Starmer pretending that they will be content to stay in, or return to, their native countries? Of course they will not. They will simply make their way to the English Channel and then try to cross it.

I wonder “what element” is behind that agenda…

If you import populations from the more backward parts of the world, in sufficient quantity, your own society becomes backward and/or degenerate.

Why are they even here?

Please refer to the last few comments.

That made me laugh, which is something…I mean both the comment by tweeter “@TexanGhost” and Dawn Butler’s brainless tweet.

Only one thing can save Western culture and civilization, and the root-stock on which they both depend— social nationalism, and a consequent “revaluation of all values”.

Personal memory

Happened to see the above photo of the Thames just below Benson Lock, Oxfordshire. My mind at once returned to the summer of 1971, when I was there, aged 14, rowing my inflatable yellow neoprene boat downstream.

53 years ago. Over half a century. Does not seem possible, in a sense.

At least that little corner of England has not yet been trashed, or built upon.

I often worry that I may be too old to take a leading part in the national revolution by the time it happens, at least to take an active leading part; I am already 67 (68 in September). Damn.

“The Great Reset”…

Elon Musk has evidently had a very different experience of living in the USA than I ever did…

Mirabile dictu! Former-MP and Israel-puppet Largan has said something with which I can agree.

I have noted in the past on the blog the inadequacy of so many post-1945 public buildings in the UK, for example the court buildings in both London and the provinces. Some are OK, or even impressive, but more are not. Compare them to most of the American court buildings, such as the Federal court building in Trenton, New Jersey, where I was, several times, over 30 years ago:

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarkson_S._Fisher_Federal_Building_and_United_States_Courthouse Trenton, New Jersey; the sentry box is, I think, since 1992 when I was last there; presumably an example of the increase in “security” in the USA since those relatively innocent days]

Not the world’s most beautiful building, but very solid and impressive (and the interior is, in my view, even more impressive).

Ah…. just saw (for the first time), the New Jersey (i.e. State, not Federal) justice building, also in Trenton:

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_J._Hughes_Justice_Complex]

So ugly, one is prompted to speculate, “Britischer Architekt?” Still, quite large and impressive at least.

I see that that 1980s building is named after a former Governor of the state, who was also at one time Chief Justice of New Jersey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_J._Hughes_Justice_Complex#Dedication. I was very slightly acquainted with one of his sons, who himself became a Federal magistrate in 1991, a year or two after I was introduced to him; I met him again, en passant, a few times, in the years 1989-1991: https://www.pli.edu/faculty/hon.-john-j.-hughes-i1305491. He was all right, but not the most social person in the world, to be frank. Not sure that I would have liked to have been a defendant in his court…

Well, amazing. A second tweet of Largan that I like. Two in one day. Amazing.

If those poetic lines are original, from Largan himself, then he has a poetic sophistication, though not unflawed, at which I should not have guessed, to be frank.

Even if that were not so, the ban is obviously the right thing to do, whatever the collateral damage.

Defund Zelensky and his cabal. The war will then continue for only a few weeks in most areas.
