Diary Blog, 22 June 2025, including thoughts about London, and about the “entitled” attitude of the Americans

London. England. UK.

“All these things happened to me in London today I paid nearly £30 for a train ticket to take me into London from a town just 30 miles away —on a Saturday

The first person I sat next to, I think from India, decided to have a FaceTime conversation with his friend on speakerphone so we all had to listen to it

The train was late by 40 minutes due to unexplained “signalling issues”. It was also filthy.

I paid nearly £8 for a pint

I offered a woman my seat on the tube without realising she was with a man who intervened and said “no man”. He was not from the UK. I think he took my gesture as an insult.

I was asked for money by homeless people 3 times in one day

I noticed several people who are paid to give information to taxpayers and tourists over the tannoy on the London Tube cannot speak English properly

A cabbie told me “London is dead most nights”, unless you are the global high net worth set or top 1%

Restaurants are visibly struggling and often hideously overpriced

I had dinner in a neighbourhood where the average rent is £3,663 per month while half of all local social housing has gone to people who were not even born in the UK

I was constantly aware I should not get my phone out on the street as 80,000 were stolen last year

I also read on the way back while checking that stat that there were 90,000 shoplifting offences in London last year, up 54%

My train back —delayed—was suddenly changed at the last minute with all passengers on board.

They were told it would no longer be stopping at all stops.

I bought a tin of instant coffee on the way home and it had a security tag on it

Maybe I’m in a bad mood and perhaps it’s amusing to think how somebody of my political outlook is “triggered” but to me there is a deeper point here

London is over —it’s so over

It’s a city in visible decline with deteriorating standards and no real sense of identity or belonging

Going in and out of our capital city is a truly miserable experience

Infrastructure is falling apart, as is the social contract

I’ve been coming in and out of London since 1981

I simply cannot remember a time when it’s been this visibly dire and when so many things just do not work as they should”

[Matt Goodwin]

That rather echoes a blog post I published almost exactly three years ago:

Of course, the migrant-invaders see nothing the matter with London as it now is, because where they come from is worse yet. They are from Bombay and Bangalore, the slums of teeming South Asian and East Asian cities, the ramshackle neighbourhoods of Lagos or Accra, or wherever.

Look at London’s Mayor, Sadiq Khan, a Muslim apostate carpetbagger in the pocket of the Jew-Zionist lobby. He himself is part of the problem, but only part.

I am very glad that I have not lived in London since 1998 (though I did live in Higher Denham, just outside London, for 6 months in 2001-2002, and worked at that time as international lawyer in London, both at Gray’s Inn, where I was leaseholder of a set of chambers, and just off Berkeley Square in Mayfair).

Ironically, my later disbarment (2016) was pronounced (by a superannuated former circuit judge chairing a 5-member panel) in the very same building where I had sat as notional “Head of Chambers” (it was actually an offshore set-up dealing with Russia, former Soviet Union, Caribbean, Brazil etc, not ordinary English Bar work), and leaseholder.

If I were to live in London today, I should probably have my Rolex watches stolen. In fact, I no longer have them anyway (sold many years ago for reasons of financial pressure, i.e. I needed the money!).

Even were I to hit the Euromillions lottery, and so be able to live in a Nash terrace at Regent’s Park, I doubt that I should bother.

“…Either way, suddenly alone in the centre of a city I no longer recognised, I couldn’t have felt more vulnerable.

I resolved to find a police officer, but despite walking up and down some of London’s busiest central areas – down Jermyn Street, along Piccadilly and over to Leicester Square – I saw none.

West End Central police station, which would have been a ten-minute walk away, had closed permanently in 2021 after being sold to developers for a reported £50 million. 

No wonder opportunistic crimes like these are on the rise when bobbies have all but abandoned their beats.

Giving up, I headed home, walking the three miles to my flat in Kensington because I had no cards with which to pay for a bus or taxi. 

Dazed and shattered, and with the pain in my leg only growing, I took a breather in Hyde Park to register the crime on my phone using the Met’s online form.

The next day I received a call to say that officers from Hammersmith police station would come to take a statement from me at 8am the following morning. 

But at the time they were due to arrive, they rang to say they couldn’t come because they couldn’t find an available police car.

Really? The station is barely a half-hour walk away. Disappointed, I had to make do with discussing it over the phone with the officer instead. Such muggings were, he said, ‘rife’ in the capital at the moment.

He asked if I wanted to take it any further and, honestly, I didn’t. The pointlessness of reporting a crime so long after the event is infuriating – it’s a tick-box exercise, nothing more. 

The chances of the police catching a gang with my vague description of their clothes and ethnicity must be almost nil.

Ultimately, pursuing a report would mean me enduring a bureaucratic hurdle – filling in more forms online, having more phone calls. And for what?

All of this could have been avoided if there were more police on our streets, which would serve as a deterrent to these thugs. It’s futile having a police force at all in London if they can’t adequately react to something like this.

[Daily Mail]

Actually, 90% or more of “all this” could also be avoided if London were a white English city…

Of course, what will happen is that the existing System parties will falter and fail, but Reform UK itself will become a System party in the end, if it looks like taking power. You can already see signs of that— the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby influence, the non-European candidates etc.

All the same, this is a great thing. The Overton Window is shifting, visibly. After Reform, there may emerge, may have to emerge, a genuinely social-national party or movement. However, the “Parliamentary road” is a limited option, because the English/British will soon be a minority in the UK.

If anything, those predictions are conservative.

As I said 9 years ago, a squawking parrot in a golden cage, guarded by a phalanx of Zionist Jews…

Trump had the chance to take American in a new and better, and quasi-isolationist, direction. Now, the Deep State, largely under Jew/Zionist/Israeli control, has made Trump just the latest figurehead puppet for “intervention”, following Bush snr, Clinton, Bush jnr, “ex-tra-ord-in-ary” Obama (the one-time “great white black mixed-race hope”), and Biden.

I was also well ahead of Matt Goodwin on that…

(from over 6 years ago, and citing Daily Telegraph articles ).

Will Russia strike Israel? If so, where? Dimona? Ben-Gurion Airport? I doubt that that will happen, but it just might, now that the USA dog has been wagged (again) by the Jewish tail.

She forgot to add that Tugendhat is himself quarter-Jew: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Tugendhat#Early_life_and_education; also, a member of Conservative Friends of Israel.

The United States, even more than Israel, has an entitled “I can bomb you but don’t you bomb me” attitude. I well recall the scalded reaction in the USA when the World Trade Center attack happened in 2001. That only happened to other people (who, many Americans think, are scarcely people at all)…

I think that that attitude goes back at least to the Second World War, when the U.S. bombing campaign in Europe laid waste huge areas not only of Germany but of several other countries as well. At that time, there was no danger at all of any country retaliating against the U.S. mainland or its population. A feeling of invulnerability.

Farage is almost pathologically pro-Jewish lobby, and pro-Israel. That is my biggest black mark for Reform UK, and supports the theory that Reform is being lined-up to take over when the main System parties finally fall, which cannot be far off.

Ecce the Nigerian woman who will soon (next general election) be “leader” of a Conservative Party with as few as 10 MPs. I imagine, though, that her MPs will dump her by the end of this year.

The premium for being slavishly pro-Israel is not high when the leaders of “Labour” and Reform UK, maybe the LibDems too, are no different.

If so, it might have been better to say that the base was totally wiped out!

Were I the Iranian decision-maker, I should make that airport a really major priority target, along with the Dimona nuclear base. After that, central Tel Aviv.

[“The takeoff locations of the aircraft involved in the attack on nuclear facilities have been identified. The US must expect a regrettable reaction that exceeds its calculations. Having several US bases in the region is not a strength, but a vulnerability. Attacks on Israel will continue.”]

Hotels much the same. I was due to speak back in 1978 at the Clarendon Court Hotel, Little Venice. Jews connected with the pathetic Searchlight mag, now defunct, contacted the hotel management (the same kind of malicious harassment now undertaken by the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” cabal). As a result, the Clarendon cancelled, and I had to pay out for a coach to bus people who arrived there to my new venue, a large room with a bar over a pub somewhere near the river, not far from Dolphin Square.

As to the Clarendon Court Hotel, which had once been a fairly good place (foreign Test cricket teams playing at quite-nearby Lord’s would stay there in the 1970s), the last time I saw it, around 1990 or so, it was full of…yes… “asylum-seekers”, East European Gypsies etc. Yes, that’s right…35 years ago! That crap did not start in 2024, or 2010, or even 1997.

Incidentally, the Clarendon once had an amusing notice outside, relating to its spa studio: “The Body Feminine— Entrance at Rear“!

Ah. Just looked it up. The building has evidently been extensively remodelled, and is selling as multi-million-pound apartments, like the rest of London (even the old SIS/MI6 building, Century House, at 100 Westminster Bridge Road, near Lambeth North underground, is now “luxury” apartments).

I also just saw this 1992 report about that hotel: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/231279.stm: the hotel was forced to pay £6,000 apiece —maybe £20,000 each in 2025 money— to some bloody Afghans and others “forced to endure cockroaches” (etc) there… Cockroaches. Well, that would certainly never have happened back in Afghanistan…

[“Unfollowing as many Jewish pundits today as I followed in support after 7/10. If you’re tweeting “Islamo leftie tears” you’re off your rocker & deeply offensive. It’s not even a left or right thing to object or agree with strikes on Iran and America barrelling in with 6 Enola Gays.

You’re also displaying Islamophobia whilst constantly bleating about anti-semitism. I’m no leftie, I was a Tory until I had enough of the crazy far-right lean and a succession of appalling leaders. I’m a Zionist, my 22 yo father helped liberate Belsen and still talked of it on his death-bed. I have a Star of David in my bio since 7/10 as a tiny gesture of support for Jews even though I’m C of E. What more do you want from people like me? What?! Your blind support of Israel no matter what, even as babies in Gaza are blown to bits and everyone starves is crackers. Enough.

You bring it entirely on yourselves. You actively goad & insult people on here. You insult the very people who believe in Israel and have always supported it just not when it goes mental which is very regularly under Netanyahu. Lots of Israelis hate him too. I have no time for the ghastly Hamas, Mullah, Houthi and Hezbollah fans who go on marches but dear god the Jews who back Trump & Netanyahu are a loud & aggressive disgrace. And when Eylon Levy talks of the Blitz or Dunkirk – it’s an insult.

You bombed Iran, you got bombed back, you seem to want all of us to be bombed, bugger off!“]

Ha. Brava!

I had thought that lady tweeter must be at least partly-Jewish. Seems that I was probably mistaken in thinking so.

She is talking, inter alia, about the kind of aggressive and malicious Zionist Jews prominent on Twitter etc, such as those connected with the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, Jews such as Gideon Falter, “Slitherman”, and “Mark Lewis Lawyer”, among other liars.

There I do disagree. The “British” Jews who are those, or most of those, being repatriated, are probably hard-core Zionists anyway. I have already blogged that, if they love Israel so much, let them hunker down with a pack of matzo biscuits, an Uzi, and a Desert Eagle, and fight. Why should they be rescued at all? If they are going to be, why should the British taxpayers subsidize them? Most probably have plenty of money, too.

Horrific, and on a Biblical scale. The (Israeli) Jews have done that, and others, in the USA, UK, France etc, support what the Israeli government has done and what it continues to do.

Lewis poses, increasingly without credibility, as an effective solicitor, but he has been making false accusations to police etc for *at least* 13 years: see

and

Others of the same type, such as Simon Myerson (Jew barrister who had to be removed as part-time judge because of his hate-filled tweets etc), Daily Star scribbler Adam Cailler, and others, had their sworn testimony disbelieved by a senior judge at Wilson’s successful libel trial. All members or supporters of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, and all liars and quite possibly perjurers.

Incidentally, the sworn testimony of the “CAA” Chairman, Gideon Falter, was also disbelieved by another judge and at another trial, years ago, the successful appeal of Foreign Office diplomat Rowan Laxton.

I have had, as many readers will know, my own problems over the past 12 years and arising from lying accusations made by Lewis, “Slitherman”, and some old Jewish “CAA” crones from North London.

No wonder one of the Ten Commandments brought down by Moses was “Thou shalt not bear false witness“— it is what “they” do.

Stray thought

Sometimes people say something about what may happen, and even that they may do something; later the said thing happens, but you do not know whether that is co-incidental, or whether the people you spoke with were responsible.

Example: when I was in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) in 1977, aged 20, I happened to be acquainted with an Englishman about my age, maybe a year or so older, who had been (for whatever reason) chucked out of the training course for the Rhodesian SAS (which, unlike the British original parent version, recruited directly, not only from soldiers already serving in other units).

That young man told me that he and a few friends had an idea to break into the HQ of the Bank of Rhodesia and steal its foreign currency reserves. I laughed, thinking it impossible. Some time later, though, when I was back in the UK, I happened to read (I think in the Daily Telegraph) a small piece reporting on how that institution had indeed been broken into, and a large part of the foreign currency therein stolen. I think that the sum mentioned was either USD $5M or £5M pounds sterling (in today’s money, that would be at least £50M). As far as I know, no-one was ever arrested, nor the funds recovered.

So was that co-incidence, or was that humorous rogue whom I knew slightly (and whose name I cannot now recall) one of the culprits? I shall never know, neither shall I ever know whether he is currently sunning himself in Monte Carlo alongside a suitable blonde and a Campari-soda, or was, before long, dead in a ditch somewhere in Africa.

Life is always a puzzle.

Israel, “antisemitism”, and the continuing Israeli war crimes in Gaza

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/may/23/netanyahu-accused-of-slander-criticising-macron-carney-starmer

Benjamin Netanyahu was accused of slander and pursuing a war without end after he claimed the leaders of France, Canada and the UK were stoking antisemitism and siding with Hamas by demanding he end the two-month blockade of food and aid into Gaza.

In a post on X on Thursday evening, the Israeli prime minister said Hamas wanted to “destroy the Jewish state” and “annihilate the Jewish people”.

I could never understand how this simple truth evades the leaders of France, Britain, Canada and others,” Netanyahu said.

I say to President Macron, Prime Minister Carney and Prime Minister Starmer, when mass murderers, rapists, baby killers and kidnappers thank you, you’re on the wrong side of justice.”

[Guardian]

So now even Starmer-stein and Macron, both egregious puppets of the worldwide Jew-Zionist lobby and Israel, are called “antisemitic“! Carney, too, a former Goldman Sachs and central banker who is himself believed to be part-Jew (though his background is mainly Irish).

Is this the peak of such “gaslighting”? We in the UK have seen, for years now, the raucous Jew-Zionist lobby saying that almost anything not slavishly pro-Israel is “antisemitic”. The malicious and dishonest so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] has been in the forefront of it all, making false accusations about people to police and professional regulators, and spreading its poisonous propaganda on Sky News, GB News, the “does anyone actually watch?” Talk TV online outlet, and even the BBC.

Apart from that, imagine the lack of self-knowledge it takes for Netanyahu to accuse the admittedly unpleasant Hamas organization of being “mass murderers“, “baby killers” etc when the Hamas attack on Israel in late 2023 killed some thousand or so Jews and others (though many were in fact killed by the brutal Israeli forces themselves when the latter were killing Hamas operatives, and the Israeli victims seem to have “got in the way”) but when the Israeli retaliation in Gaza has killed anywhere between 150,000 and 200,000, mostly civilians rather than Hamas personnel.

In other words, in terms of numbers, the Israeli forces have killed between 150 and 200 Gazans for every one Israeli Jew killed during the 2023 incursion by Hamas personnel into southern Israel.

The Gazan population has been bombed, firebombed, attacked with white phosphorus, attacked with flamethrowers, shot at from the air and ground, rolled over by Israeli tanks, and killed also by an embargo on medical supplies and even food and water.

About half, more than half, of the victims of the Israeli forces in Gaza have been women and children, a huge proportion of the latter having been under the age of 12 (so not teenage fighters, of which Hamas seems to have few anyway); many of the victims have been babies, indeed. Netanyahu should look in the mirror, if he can bear it.

Incidentally, most of the original Israeli victims of the 2023 incursion were adults, and most were members of the Israeli armed forces, police, or other security orgs.

As previously blogged, if the Hamas operatives of 2023 were in part monstrous, indeed if the Palestinian Arabs generally are sometimes monstrous, then they have been made monstrous, and made so mainly by the actions and behaviour of Israel, and its supporters and facilitators elsewhere. Jews across the world raise money for Israel, including money specifically raised for the Israeli armed forces.

Are we coming to the point at which the “Western” world will (start to) throw off the shroud of (((control))) over Western economies, legal professions, politicians, newspapers, TV, radio etc, which (((control))) has become ever-heavier over the last 150 years, and particularly since the disastrous end of the Second World War in 1945?

Israel itself was founded on a foundation of mass murder and ethnic cleansing. The karma taken on by Israel and its population (and its supporters in the West) is very heavy, and gets heavier daily.

More Labour hypocrisy

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/may/23/labour-blocks-proposal-for-swift-bricks-in-all-new-homes

“Labour blocks proposal for ‘swift bricks’ in all new homes

MPs had previously backed Conservative amendment to ask developers to provide hollow bricks for endangered birds

Providing every new home with at least one “swift brick” to help endangered cavity-nesting birds has been rejected by Labour at the committee stage of its increasingly controversial planning bill.

The amendment to the bill to ask every developer to provide a £35 hollow brick for swifts, house martins, sparrows and starlings, which was tabled by Labour MP Barry Gardiner, has been rejected by the Labour-dominated committee.

Despite the Labour party having supported the swift brick amendment when it was tabled on Conservative government legislation in 2023, housing minister, Matthew Pennycook, told the House of Commons committee: “We are not convinced that legislating to mandate the use of specific wildlife features is the right approach, whether that is done through building regulations or a freestanding legal requirement.

A new petition calling for swift bricks to be made mandatory for new homes has rapidly reached 80,000 signatures in recent days, two years after activist Hannah Bourne-Taylor won a parliamentary debate to help the rapidly declining migratory birds after 109,896 voters signed a government petition.

Bourne-Taylor said there appeared to be “no logic” to the government’s opposition to swift bricks when they precisely meet its ambition of creating win-wins for the economy and nature.

“They are going to be building millions of bricks into walls. I don’t understand why there’s such a problem with a brick with a hole in it. It seems ludicrous,” she said. “Why say your new legislation is a win-win for new homes and the environment and exclude the only measure that is a true win-win?

“They are tone-deaf. This is such a tiny thing they could do, but it’s brewing such a distrust and sense of betrayal among the people who voted for them.”

[Guardian]

Such an easy way in which to help those birds and the environment generally, and now fake Labour has ruined it.

The Labour Party is now fake, evil, and deserving of being stamped into the ground.

As for that Pennycook bastard, he seems to be a typical Labour MP of 2025, a “beggar on horseback”, i.e. a careerist from a very modest background, determined to climb the greasy pole, with neither ideas nor ideals, and completely unprincipled.

By reason of the repression of free speech in this country, I cannot say what I might hope will happen to most System MPs.

Ironic. The System politicians and msm recently lined up to mention the possibility that Britain might have been invaded in 1940, yet pretended not to notice a real invasion that is happening right under their noses, and literally under the noses of the spectators of that Dunkirk tribute show.

As to why Britain was never actually under real threat of invasion in 1940, there were numerous reasons. First of all, Hitler wanted to rule much of the world in alliance with the British Empire; he did not want war with Britain; Britain, i.e. Neville Chamberlain’s Cabinet, declared war on Germany in 1939 and, after mid-1940, his successor, Churchill, was unwilling to consider an armistice.

Hitler was weighing what became the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941. He did not wan t a two-front war.

Hitler allowed most of the British Army soldiers in the Dunkirk area to escape (my own maternal grandfather one of them). Hitler refused to allow the Luftwaffe and tank columns to destroy that army, the remnants of the British Expeditionary Force or BEF. German ground forces were halted outside Dunkirk by Hitler’s own order (Fuhrerbefehl).

Secondly, the Germans never had enough barge and ship capacity to ferry an army of sufficient size across the Channel.

Thirdly, the Luftwaffe could not guarantee air superiority; neither could the Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine much defend any forces ferried across.

Reverting to today’s real invasion, it continues, day after day, and nothing of importance is being done to stop, or even slow, the flow.

If only Britain had been in loose alliance with the Reich. We would have been, today, the rulers of much of the world, and that world would have been a better and happier place by reason of it. The usual evil (((influence))) prevented it from happening. Instead, we sit on our small and beleaguered island, invaded daily by trash from all over the world, we are individually poorer with every passing day and, with every passing day, our society falls apart, more and more.

I wonder how long it will be before there is little that is worthwhile left. At the age of 68, I may not see the ultimate depths of the degradation of Britain, thank God, and I am doing what little I presently can, in my present situation, to avoid the catastrophe, but see around me a society running around like a headless chicken, scarcely aware that it is already, in effect, dead, or at least mortally wounded.

I may, by Grace of God, be able to do more. We shall see. That is a matter of Fate. If the existing society cannot be saved, it may be that seeds can be planted in the rotting corruption, seeds which may germinate at a later time in history.

I noted Myerson’s recent and defamatory attack on Dr. Rachel Clarke on the blog, yesterday, and mused on whether she could or, rather, will take a civil action in defamation against him, as well as reporting Myerson to the Bar Standards Board. The same must be true of this doctor, assuming that she is a medical doctor, as it seems she must be. Myerson is plainly saying that she will not treat Jew patients professionally.

Perhaps the two lady doctors will co-operate in both suing Myerson and reporting him to the Bar Standards Board.

Anonymous Jew-Zionist stalker attacks James Wilson, the victorious defendant in the libel case Wilson v. Mendelsohn, Newbon (deceased) and Cantor.

Myerson and other notorious Jew-Zionist pro-Israel fanatics testified for the defendants, but the trial judge gave no weight to (i.e. plainly disbelieved) what they said on oath; Myerson included.

Thank God Myerson was at least sacked as a recorder (p/t judge) last year. The sacking was presented as if a “resignation”, of course. He had already been given an official warning about his online trolling.

Police who are doing this should have their names, ranks, and numbers recorded.

As one might expect from scribbler Allison Pearson, she has missed at least one point. It is actually irrelevant whether someone’s views are considered “racist” (an almost-meaningless term).

My views now, and when I was wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred by reason of a conspiracy by two connected packs of Jews (“UK Lawyers for Israel” and the “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) in 2016 ( 8 years after I ceased to practise at the Bar), are little if at all different from when I was in ordinary Bar practice in England (1992-1996 and 2002-2008), I being overseas most of the intervening time and for several years thereafter.

When I was in Bar practice before the courts and tribunals of England (mostly the County Courts and the High Court, though at first also in the magistrates’ courts, various tribunals and —occasionally— the Crown Courts), I had lay clients (and instructing solicitors) who were from many parts of the world, most living in the UK. Many species of blacks and browns, inter alia. I always did my best for all of them. That is or was the ethos of the Bar.

It is also irrelevant whether or not Lucy Connolly is or is not labelled as “racist” by this idiot or that. The fact is that her sentence was harsh, and the circumstances of her original plea and the facts of her case amount, overall, to a miscarriage of justice, notwithstanding her (frankly, mistaken) original guilty plea.

Lucy Connolly is quite evidently being used, politically, by the Starmer-stein regime, as something akin to the dead crows etc that gamekeepers used to impale on spikes as some kind of supposed warning-off to others. Katie Hopkins has vlogged to the same effect, and I had already blogged to that same effect.

The same thing happened to Tony Martin, the farmer who was at first convicted, quite wrongly, of having murdered a “gypsy” (Irish tinker/”traveller”) after a group of those predators and scavengers attacked Martin’s isolated farmhouse: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Martin_(farmer).

Even after his murder conviction was quashed, being replaced by a manslaughter conviction and a 5-year term (his 10-year sentence for shooting and wounding another nuisance in the same incident was also reduced, the 10 years being replaced by a —concurrent— 3-year term), Martin was refused early release, and served 3 years. The woke-idiot probation and parole swine were judging him for his views, at root.

Had I been Prime Minister, I should have made sure that Martin was never charged (and don’t think that that is not possible). Indeed, he should have been commended for his brave actions, and given money from public funds.

A very nice story and also, beyond that, an interesting example of how animals both have a homing instinct and also (beyond even that) a connection with their humans that goes beyond “mere” homing (amazing though that alone is). In some cases, animals have found their way across hundreds, even thousands of miles, to their humans’ new homes, homes to which, and in places to which they, the animals, have never been. There should be research into this.

Though The Incredible Journey and the novel on which it was based [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Incredible_Journey] were fictional, there are similar accounts which are not fictional.

Could it be that, apart from the more obvious ways in which animals navigate, or may navigate, animals such as cats and dogs, often personally connected with particular humans, can find those with whom they feel a connection via some kind of “silver cord” based on (?) brainwaves or some other emanation?

The strange military ballet which takes place daily at the border between India and Pakistan.

Even now, in the face of such devastation, bombing of hospitals, and starvation of children, and plans to drive out (to where?) the entire Palestinian Arab population, you see online and on TV the bleating of Zionist Jews living in the UK, USA etc that that is all “self-defence” and that any criticism of it is “antisemitic” and should be banned.

The more I think about it, the more I think that the way forward is not the UK parliamentary democracy of (arguende) 1832-present, not Sovietism, not even National Socialism (in its original clothing), but a synthesis of the best elements of those, suffused with interest in, and knowledge of, the supernatural world, as noted in my blog piece from many years ago about my personal history:

[“Ian Millard is now determined to put forward ideas and views for a positive future society in the UK, mainland Europe and beyond.

Ian Millard’s world-view comes out of both wide reading and the experience of living and working all over the world, and is composed of a synthesis of political ideologies, religions, philosophies and studies, prominent among which are the ideas and ideals contained in Anthroposophy, National Socialism, pan-Europeanism, and non-denominational Christianity, particularly Christic and Grail occultism.

Society in the advanced countries (and, therefore, the rest of the world) has come to a dead end, except in strictly technical fields.

A new society must arise, based at least fundamentally on the Threefold Social Order concept of Rudolf Steiner and on a mainly European population in the European or Eurasian lands.*

*”Eurasia” in this context refers mainly to Europe, Russia (including Siberia), Ukraine, Kazakhstan and some other Russophone areas.“]

Stray thought (aka “why is nothing in the UK thought through properly?”)

I should say that a major problem of both local and central government (and orgs under both) in this country is the apparent sheer inability to think things through; particularly policies, but it extends to what Basil Fawlty would call “the bleeding obvious“.

Yesterday, I drove 15 miles to visit someone at a major hospital, the recorded telephone message of which starts with some pointless propaganda about how £400M or £500M is being spent on new buildings etc.

So, anyway, after a slow, incredibly congested drive to the place, I find that there are indeed new buildings still under construction, but that a good part of what had been public parking has now been built upon. No doubt the usual bureaucratic box-tickers think that that is wonderfully “green”, and have little interest in the inconvenience of people visiting, or needing to stay, in the hospital.

The next problem was in finding the patient I was visiting. I just cannot believe that a major NHS hospital apparently has no main reception desk! Perhaps (?) one will exist, once all the changes have been made, but for now at least, no reception. Beyond belief. In France, in the USA, the reception desk is inescapable. The UK prefers the “Hampton Court Maze” approach.

I asked some foreign (Malaysian?) nurse or other uniformed person where was reception. She had difficulty in repeating the word, then directed me to what was (inevitably) the wrong direction, in view of the fact that, as I then discovered, there was no reception…

Finally, another person told me to find A&E, and the A&E desk would look up the patient’s name for me. I did that, and was given the number of the ward and bay. Thank you. Where would I find that ward? They were unable to tell me! They did not know the layout of the hospital, and apparently had no map or plan to hand.

I had to stumble around, asking random uniformed personnel, until I was told— at the other end of the large complex (of course).

En route to my destination, I noticed a sticker or poster proudly proclaiming that the hospital had been awarded 5 stars (the maximum) for cleanliness. I have to say the place did not look too clean.

Signage— terrible. Architecture. Almost rock-bottom.

Just one example. I could cite so many others. Yet Britain not so long ago completed Crossrail (now, the “Elizabeth Line”), a very impressive, very complex rail project. I can only assume that people who knew what they were doing were in charge of the rail project, whereas in the NHS, local authorities, and in respect of central government direct policy (immigration etc) you are dealing with the —often-clueless— bureaucrat element and the —even worse— political-idiot element.

Walk down almost any street, in almost any part of the country. Even in the shopping streets of or near affluent areas, many on the streets are blacks, browns, Chinese. This is not only migration-invasion, but also migration-occupation.

In any case, that 431,000 number is arrived at by including (and setting-off) those white British/European people who are leaving, whereas almost all of the immigrants coming to the UK are black/brown/Chinese, so the reality is even worse.

Almost none. Statistical zero. Over time, they and their offspring will be, at best, parasites, at worst criminal or terroristic.

Simon Myerson is the malicious and vituperative Jew-Zionist barrister from Leeds who was sacked as a recorder (p/t judge) because he was unwilling, or perhaps unable (by reason of his character or mentality), to stop his online abuse of and insult to people.

Actually, looking at Myerson’s tweet, it is surely libellous on its face. It is not unlikely that Dr. Clarke henceforth will be avoided by Jewish patients etc who have seen Myerson’s tweet, and who may take seriously the allegation that she is “unsafe” (meaning, in this context, likely to deliberately cause injury to them).

There is surely, in potentio, direct financial damage there, and career damage, as well as reputational damage.

I think that Dr. Clarke should consult her solicitor without delay. Myerson has plenty of cash and property with which to satisfy any damages and costs that might result from a successful claim in defamation.

Incidentally, in English law there is no such thing as a “blood libel“, which is a term used only by Jews (or their puppets) to describe criticism by non-Jews of bloodletting, or alleged bloodletting, by Jews.

A barrister, Jewish or otherwise, should not be making up law and broadcasting the nonsense online (or elsewhere), thus misleading the general public.

I also think that Dr. Clarke would be within her rights to refer Myerson to the Bar Standards Board. I also think that she should.

Myerson should be reported to both the Bar Standards Board and the court where that trial is to take place (I think, not sure, the Central Criminal Court/Old Bailey).

Myerson was involved as a witness in the civil trial in which Newbon was a defendant. The trial judge did not believe a word Myerson said (or the testimony of several other Jewish witnesses), though said judge expressed his assessment more diplomatically than I have done.

Newbon, a vicious social media troll and pro-Israel fanatic, committed suicide before the trial ended (in defeat for the three defendants, the two still alive and Newbon). The James Wilson who has tweeted above was the successful claimant in that trial.

Starmer-stein has done the near-impossible— made Boris-idiot, Liz Truss and others seem (relatively) honest. Hard to believe (in both senses).

The Overton Window is moving at last…

Anything from any Indians, Pakistanis, or other non-whites on this issue can be disregarded as biased and/or with an agenda.

In effect, though, the UKIP of 2014 is still around, having passed through two further incarnations— Brexit Party and now Reform UK.

As to the LibDems, their facade is still standing, thanks to the LibDems being the default non-Lab/non-Con alternative-choice or dustbin party, but as a party putting forward real ideas, they are almost a nullity.

In the end, only a real social-national party can deal with the problem. Reform, for me, is just an underwhelming way-station.

That polling may be accurate but, if it is, leaves out the important voting effects. Hardly anyone of or above State Pension age supports the “confiscation” of universal Winter Fuel Payment; very few aged 55+ support the “confiscation”. Most of those supporting Starmer-stein and Rachel Reeves in this will be under 40, perhaps even under 30.

The WFP “confiscation” will have electoral repercussions right through the present Parliament and on to the next general election. One of several factors which have already sunk fake Labour.

Were I to publish on the blog what I think should be done with evil “immigrants welcome” (“invaders welcome”) expenses cheat Yvette Cooper, I should probably have to endure the nuisance and boredom of the UK’s poundshop Stasi police at my door (yet again)…

Like most of Starmer-stein’s Cabinet, Yvette Cooper is a member of Labour Friends of Israel.

Moscow must be (?) becoming more convenient than I remember…

Last time I was there was 18 years ago, in 2007.

As frequently noted on the blog, though, immigration on such a huge scale impacts all other issues— housing, NHS, crime, tax, economy, environment, water supply, State pensions and other benefits etc.

The next general election may not be until 2029, so much ground to cover before then, but those numbers would result in a House of Commons with 310 Reform MPs (on the cusp of a working majority), 169 Lab, 72 LibDem, 36 SNP, 33 Cons (etc).

The Conservative Party, as in another poll yesterday, relegated to a pretty poor 5th place in the Commons. Among the 94 Con MPs likely to be ejected would be Mel Stride, James Cleverly, Suella Braverman, Jeremy Hunt, David Davis, Jesse Norman, Robert Jenrick, Rishi Sunak and, last but not least, Kemi Badenoch.

That would pretty much finish the Con Party.

The opinion polls now commonly have Reform not only as top party preference, but also top by some distance from Labour and the rest.

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

I was last there in 1974, I think, aged maybe 17. Having dropped out of school [https://rbcs.org.uk/], I worked for a while as temp dogsbody for an agency that sent me to various places short of workers. The one in Bracknell was at the Waitrose warehouse (next to Waitrose HQ). I was there for a couple of weeks. I used to go there daily from Caversham Heights (north-west of Reading) on my 75 cc Italian scooter (absolute top speed 60 mph, normal top speed 50).

I remember the brief experience mainly because, one fine day, two Thames Valley Police detectives from Reading wanted to interview me in the office. They did so, and fingerprinted me. Apparently, the other agency workers, who all arrived and departed by minibus, had already been interviewed. I was told that quite a lot of Waitrose canned products had gone missing.

Well, it turned out that all the agency workers except me had been “having it away” with Waitrose’s stuff. I was cleared almost immediately, I think mainly by the absence of fingerprint evidence against me, but all the others were, I was told, charged with theft. I had had no idea that they were “having it away” with tins of salmon or whatever. Naive me.

Not that I was necessarily more honest than the others (who were all much older than me, in their thirties or forties); I just had no use for whatever Waitrose products they had apparently been stealing.

Bracknell was very different then, I think, and smaller; the same is true of my old school at Sonning, looking now at its website. Pretty much only the original old house (Holme Park house) is the same; a whole large complex is now around it. New facilities, new buildings, even a new road system:

Deutschland erwache!

England awake too!

For once, I agree with Piers Morgan. I saw a few minutes of that interview. “The Harry formerly known as Prince” is just a ridiculous weasel. Many hold him in contempt, but few if any want to kill him or even assault him. In other words, he is in no significant peril should he wish to visit the UK, with or without Meghan Mulatta and/or their offspring.

The fact is that, without the accident or incident of his birth, Harry would be totally insignificant and would live in utter obscurity. He has nothing of interest to say, nothing at all.

As a matter of fact, he and the Mulatta are said to have hundreds of millions of dollars, so if he wants to employ a bodyguard (or a whole team) when in the UK, he and the Mulatta have the means to do so.

I noticed, for the first time, how very close together are Harry’s eyes; looks like some kind of genetic defect. Very strange. There is evidently something not quite right about Harry, mentally, but I have no view as to whether that has been caused, or triggered, by his marriage to, and apparent subservience to, the Mulatta. Perhaps he was always like that under the surface. The few times I saw him on TV, when he was a young officer or ex-officer, he always looked to be in good spirits, superficially.

His military service seems to have consisted of about 8 years in uniform as a junior officer, including a total of about 6 months deployed in Afghanistan, flying helicopters. He saw action a few times, apparently (that is to say, killing opponents on the ground from his attack helicopter…).

Thinking idly about it, it seems to me that Harry chose the right title for his book of memoirs— Spare. He now has no real function or role in the world. His situation reminds me of that of Vronsky in Anna Karenina, when Vronsky and Anna are in self-chosen exile in Italy, after having left Russia. Homesickness. Frustration. Relationship problems.

Incidentally, it infuriates me (though certainly not enough to want to kill or injure him, or even to —much— criticize him!) that Harry whines constantly about his life, his expenses, his little upsets, and the death of his mother (when he was 12), which last must have been very upsetting but which, after all, took place in 1997, 28 years ago! The man is now 40 years of age!

What I mean is that so many people in this world, indeed in the UK, are poor, suffering in various ways, wishing for a better life and/or a better society, and all this featherbedded nonentity can think about is his own comfort, security etc, and his unmerited wealth.

Never a word about the struggles and problems facing the British people.

In fact, in some ways I have more time for the Mulatta. At least she knows what real life is, having had to struggle, make a living for herself etc. Harry probably finds it a challenge to brush his own teeth.

I just have no time for him.

Lucy Powell [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_Powell]— just another System drone who has never had a non-political (System-political) job.

Well, it has taken several years, but at last my prediction of terminal decline for the main System parties is coming to pass, and evidently so.

Late thoughts on the recent by-election and local elections

One thing that struck me, looking at the pro-Labour or anti-Reform Twitterati, is how readily they describe, contemptuously, those who recently voted Reform as being “thick as mince“, “thick gammon racists” (the irony…), or “thick c**ts“, while often posting cartoons or AI-produced pictures of supposed Reform voters (shown as tattooed skinheads drinking cheap canned beer while draped in Union Jack flags, or wearing football-club clothing).

You would imagine that the opposite would be seen as more true, i.e. that repeatedly voting for the same System parties that have been driving the UK into the ground for decades (and especially since about 1989) might be seen as unintelligent or, in a word, stupid.

In fact, it is clear —as said often over the years on the blog— that many self-describing “Left” partisans have no real ideology left, only the wish to censor and attack even mildly nationalist people.

All those pseudo-socialists have left is that wish to “deplatform” others. They have no real ideology or principle left, and their preferred System party, Labour, is quite plainly just one face of a Janus-faced “uniparty”. Where is the real or significant difference between Starmer-stein’s Labour Friends of Israel “Labour” and the “Conservative” Friends of Israel governments of 2010-2024?

Such people seem to think that the voters in places such as Runcorn should be grateful to have a Labour-label government, whatever its policies, and whatever its actions and defects.

People did not, most of them, vote actively for Reform (in terms of ideology or policy), they voted Reform as a way to hit back at both Lab and Con, and as a way of trying to change a political and economic system that is no longer working for them. No social-national party of the slightest significance exists at present; Reform is the next-best option.

I see that, beyond Starmer-stein Labour propaganda trickery, nothing will change in terms of stopping the migration invasion, stopping the migrant-invaders taking over both social and private housing (paid for by the State out of taxation of the British voters); and nothing will improve in any significant way (if at all) for the British people economically.

Reform will rise up from here and, if it then founders, or fails, real social nationalism will then take up the baton. Raise the banners!

Diary Blog, 2 May 2025, with result of, and analysis around, the Runcorn and Helsby by-election

Morning music

[Sukhumi]

Full results from the Runcorn and Helsby by-election

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runcorn_and_Helsby_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s

Reform UK 38.72%, Labour 38.7%, Conservatives 7.17%, Greens 7.09%. The other 11 candidates lost their deposits, the LibDem coming 5th of the 15 candidates, and with a mere 2.88%.

What is so good about the result is that, had Starmer-stein managed to hold on to Runcorn and Helsby, even with one vote, he would have been able to weasel about “hard choices“, “making the tough decisions” etc. Now, the public can be seen to have replied with a massive “NO!” to all such Blair/Brown/Cameron (etc) dissembling.

So Reform (not my party, not my kind of party, not really my ideology, but halfway there) now has 5 MPs (6, really, Rupert Lowe having been elected under the Reform banner). Under a fairer electoral system, Reform in 2024 would have had 92 MPs anyway, not 5.

5-6 MPs may seem a small bloc, but for most of the 1950s and 1960s, the old Liberal Party had the same number, before struggling into double figures for the first time since 1945, and then recovering under their new name, the Liberal Democrats: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_Party_(UK)#Electoral_performance.

Now the dam has burst. The main System parties have lost all credibility. Today Reform, but tomorrow who knows?

More thoughts about the by-election, local elections etc

The discomfiture of System drones, especially Labour ones, is both very evident and hilarious to see. Last night, I saw a section of the Sky News election coverage. One of the “experts” on their little panel was the TV talking head, now elevated to the degraded Lords as a “baroness”, Ayesha Hazarika. She obviously hates it that Reform is becoming electorally popular.

That Ayesha Hazarika person is emblematic of the times in which we live in the UK. Of Indian origin, she was a lowly civil service press officer before becoming a stand-up “comedian” (comedienne), a markedly unsuccessful one.

Despite that, her connections in the Labour Party ensured that she not only got “advisory” political work, but also slots on TV discussion panels and, eventually, the “peerage” (nominated by Starmer-stein).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayesha_Hazarika,_Baroness_Hazarika

Such peerages pay out £361 a day taxfree (when the House is sitting, i.e. 102 days per annum, plus travel costs and, in many cases, the costs of hotels or rent of flats etc in London. The £361 daily allowance is paid for up to 102 days per year, so as much as around £37,000 in a year. No fortune, but it is taxfree (so worth the same as a salary of maybe £50,000 or so), and all a “baroness” or “lord” has to do to get it is to sign in every day claimed for. It can take as little as 30 minutes, but why not stay and have an excellent and absurdly-subsidized lunch too?

A friend of mine often used to lunch with a peer of the realm (one of the real and unpaid old hereditary ones, not a life peer) in the 1980s and 1990s. She told me about the kind of luxury food and wine they had, and how low were the prices of that.

What a broken system. A low-level civil servant office bod and unsuccessful comic entertainer can get to know a few MPs, get on Newsnight or Sky News a bit, then become a member of the upper chamber of our legislature. It is absolutely ridiculous.

Turning from the Hazarika creature to more general matters, it is clear that the Westminster Bubblers simply do not understand what is driving the Reform phenomenon. They are too well-padded to feel the pain of so many people in this country.

Reform is underwhelming, really, yet look at what is happening! The voters are clutching at the Reform straw because not only are the main System parties useless, but they appear intent on stamping on British people, on their preferred way of life, on their history and on their future.

Labour especially is in the hands of secretive and hostile cabals. Starmer-stein is the obvious example: a freemason married to a Jewish woman, and who, at Easter, did not (as far as I have seen) invite any English children to Downing Street but did invite a group of Jewish children celebrating one of their religious festivals which occurred at about the same time.

Starmer-stein and his cabal have cut the small incomes of pensioners, the sick, the old, the unemployed, but have thrown money at “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) and at Israel (e.g. by paying for RAF surveillance flights over Gaza and other Arab territory, then giving the intelligence product to Israel for free).

I was driving in one of the most affluent parts of southern England this morning, and the road could have been in some broken-down part of the world; potholed, and poorly surfaced generally. Why? Why? I do not recall roads in England being as bad as this in the past, prior to, say, 2010. certainly not in the 1980s. “Austerity”? Poor priorities?

People are getting very fed up, indeed angry, at the way things are going. Reform UK is just the first step. People will go much further if the country continues to be so broken, and even more invaded by migrant-invaders (“legal” and “illegal”).

At present, there is no indication that the direction of travel of the UK is anywhere but straight down.

It’s a small world

I was just perusing the online newspapers, looking at a few current crimes and trials. While doing that, I noticed the continuing trial (in fact, retrial) of one Constance Marten, whose retrial has been in progress for a month or so (the original trial stopped in summer 2024).

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c78e1yq6d2eo

Obviously, the present retrial is in progress and so I cannot say anything by way of comment about the material facts or subject-matter. In any case, I do not know anything of the case, beyond what little I have read in newspapers or seen on TV news from time to time.

No, what struck me was something peripheral to the case.

On reading some accounts of the trial and retrial, I saw the photograph of one of the accused:

[Constance Marten, defendant]

I happen to have very good facial recognition skills. The picture reminded me slightly of someone I encountered a few times in the mid-1980s.

At the relevant time, about 40 years ago, I had a girlfriend who worked as an interpreter at a high level, working —inter alia— with people such as the then Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher (eg when Gorbachev visited the UK), and with organizations such as the U.N. Atomic Energy Agency (I.A.E.A.) and various Soviet dance groups, including the Bolshoi.

Thus it was that I encountered a young woman, 20-something, who was also interpreting, but on a lower technical level. More general or social interpreting.

The Bolshoi touring ensemble was, appropriately, large, well over 300 in all, everything from dancers to costume people and even a few persons from the U.S.S.R. Ministry of Culture, i.e, KGB minders etc. The job of the last group was not really, or primarily, to prevent defections of the kind seen in the 1960s and 1970s, but to guard against anti-Soviet (mostly Jew-Zionist) protestors (re. Shcharansky and other refuseniki) and to stop people getting into trouble. For example, the famous choreographer, Grigorovitch [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yury_Grigorovich] once got into a lift in Dublin (I was already there and just about to push a button) when a harassed fat bully KGB type stormed into the lift and rudely took over, pushing the button required to get his (well-drunk) charge back to the right floor.

Such a large ensemble required several interpreters.

Incidentally, I never met Grigorovitch (as such), but always used his wife’s laminated Bolshoi Ballet clip-on lapel pass to get past the security lines and get in to see the shows (fortunately, the individual name was on the other side of the pass, and there was no photograph!). His wife was the prima ballerina, Natalia Bessmertnova [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natalia_Bessmertnova]. She was too grand to actually wear or carry her laminated pass.

Incidentally, and incredibly, Grigorovitch is still alive at age 98, despite the abuse his liver must have suffered over nearly a century.

So I met that young woman mentioned, who had the unusual name Amabel (apparently one more common in both the Middle Ages and the Victorian period). I cannot now be sure, but thinking back, I think her surname was Marten or Martin; I had forgotten that until now.

Amabel was a pleasant young woman, I think probably quite a nice person generally, and was from, I was told, a wealthy landowning family who had houses, including large country houses, here and there, both in England and Ireland. In fact she and her —I was told, rather socially unacceptable to her family— boyfriend spent much of their time “looking after” (as she told me) a family-owned country house in some obscure part of the Irish countryside. My own girlfriend’s take on that was that it kept the boozy Irish boyfriend away from the family’s social circle.

I met the boyfriend once, in the large hotel in Dublin where the Bolshoi were all quartered, and where I was (unofficially) also staying (in my case for free). He was all right, and bought me a pint of Guinness, but I could see why her family may have preferred to keep him at arm’s length. I am not good at guessing ages, but anyway some years, several years at least, older than Amabel, with heavy black spectacles, and plainly drunk at three o’clock in the afternoon. In his thirties, maybe late thirties.

I was told that Amabel had told my girlfriend that when she, Amabel, was in St. Petersburg (then still Leningrad), she had been touring the Hermitage [https://www.hermitagemuseum.org/?lng=en; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermitage_Museum] when she saw some old English china. Some pieces had a representation of a large country house on them and, as she excitedly recounted to my girlfriend “...it was our house!” (pronounced “ower hice“…), referring to the family’s main seat, in rural Dorset.

Well, I got on rather well with Amabel on the very few times we met (I think only on that tour), and may have occasionally gently mocked her “upper class” background and social circle. Her (I think younger) sister, whom I met once somewhere, in England, I think, was a rather cold formal person (I thought), supposedly a one-time girlfriend of Prince Andrew (she eventually married a merchant banker).

When the Bolshoi ballerinas were relaxing, some were taken to Stratfield Saye, the seat of the Dukes of Wellington, halfway between Reading and Basingstoke, where a former schoolfriend of Amabel happened to be either the Duchess or the wife of the son of the then Duke, and who later succeeded to the title. I think the latter, thinking about it. A favoured few were allowed to ride some of the horses from the stables there.

After 1985 or 1986, I never saw Amabel again, and I have no idea at all how her life went. The only time I even heard of her was when she and her sister were mentioned (c.1989) by a forthright and wealthy lady who was helping (with others) to save the Rudolf Steiner Bookshop in Museum Street, near the British Museum, in London (that bookshop had to close, but the Rudolf Steiner Book Trust, which I established, and of which I was an unpaid director (with anthroposophist Nelson Willby and his American wife Melissa) for a couple of years, established Wellspring Books, which had premises in New Oxford Street for many years, and which still exists online. https://www.wellspringbookshop.co.uk/.

I remember that forthright lady partly because she would refer to her husband, a Jewish businessman, as “a six-pointer“, as if he had been bred from an unusual breed of animal.

Even that was 35 or 36 years ago now.

It was only today that I thought to see whether Amabel was related to that defendant. Turns out that she almost certainly was or is. The Dorset “hice” seems to be Crichel House (or “hice”):

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

[Crichel House, Dorset]

The house was owned by one Napier Marten or Napier Sturt Marten [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napier_Marten], born about 2-3 years after me, in 1959. He has or had no fewer than five sisters, one of which is or was Amabel Marten. He also has four children, one of whom is Constance Marten.

The house and 400 acres of the estate land was sold in 2013 for £34M to an American billionaire hedge-fund operator, one Richard L. Chilton.

Chinese artworks were also sold, for over £12M.

Well, there it is. Looks like the Amabel I encountered a few times in the mid-1980s is or was (I assume she is still around, but who knows?) the aunt of the accused, Constance Marten. Small world.

Update, 14 July 2005

(scroll down until you reach the bit about Amabel Marten and her husband, one Kieran (or Ciaran) Clarke etc; he apparently died in 2004 at the age of 52, and may or may not have been the person I met in Dublin in or about 1985 or 1986. It seems that the above house was only bought in 1990 or 1991).

Note that Labour, even then, would still have 119 MPs, because the vast majority of non-whites in the UK vote Labour. There must come a point at which this form of “democracy” ceases to be legitimate.

Puppet and mouthpiece of the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby, Iain Dale, does not think that the public should be allowed to see or hear the truth on this issue.

The fact is that, proportionate to the population(s), non-whites commit far more crimes than white English/British people.

In fact, even publishing the formal national origins of persons convicted does not and will not tell the whole story, because many of the non-whites committing crimes hold “British” nationality; indeed, many were born here. In quite many cases, those non-whites committing crimes have parents and indeed even grandparents born here, by reason of the mass immigration that has hit Britain in the past 80 years (mostly the past 60 years, indeed the past 30).

I recall how amazed I was, as a belated Bar pupil (trainee barrister) and then junior barrister (early 1990s) to see how high was the proportion of non-whites on trial in the criminal courts of London. That was 33-34 years ago. Imagine now!

If you were to take out the figures relating to “travellers” (Irish tinkers) etc, the proportion of actual English/British defendants would be even smaller, very considerably so,

Of course, as blogged previously, quite a long time ago, LBC is owned by a company itself owned by Jews. Use the searchbox on the blog to discover more.

Security guarantees of the type demanded by Zelensky are practically equivalent to NATO membership anyway, and would be also of the type given by Britain and France to Poland in March 1939. That one made the Second World War almost inevitable. Don’t make the same mistake twice.

Owen Matthews. He wrote an interesting memoir about his mother, Ludmilla, or Lyudmilla, called Stalin’s Children, mainly about his mother’s life in the Soviet Union before she settled in London: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2008/aug/28/guardianfirstbookaward.awardsandprizes2.

Time flies to such an extent that, when I read that book, 14-15 years ago, around 2010 or 2011, I got halfway through before I realized that I had known the author’s mother (though only slightly) in the early 1980s, when I was taking a part-time Russian language course at a language institute near Euston Square in Central London. The language school was part of what is now the University of Westminster. Ludmilla Matthews was one of about 5 teachers I had. I think that her subject was Russian Conversation.

Ludmilla Matthews had something not quite right with one of her feet. She was kind enough to say once that my (in fact quite rudimentary) Russian at the time was “stylish“. I remember her mainly for having talked to me about her reluctant acquaintanceship with a (literally) mad Russian or Russian/Polish girl. That was after said girl had almost kidnapped me by guile, having said that I looked like St. Herman of Alaska (I had a beard at the time), and that she had an icon of St. Herman above her bed at her home in Kensington, and would I like to see it? You get the picture.

Anyway, Owen Matthews, now 53 and a well-known international journalist and writer, must have been about 12 when his mother was my once-a-week teacher: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owen_Matthews.

I have written once before on the blog about these matters, I think.

Using Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html], that works out at Reform 254 MPs, Labour 183, Conservatives 75, LibDems 71 (Green 4, SNP 35 etc).

Once again, therefore, a minority Reform government, 72 short of an absolute Commons majority, and about 62 short of a working majority.

On those figures, the Cons are perilously close to becoming the 4th-largest party in the Commons, and utterly irrelevant.

There may be some truth in that, but it is the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby which has spearheaded the attack on free speech in the UK:

Tellingly, Matt Goodwin has never, not once, put the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby, particularly the malicious, small —but well-funded— “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [or “CAA”], in the dock…

Matt Goodwin? Controlled opposition, but useful all the same (moving the Overton Window etc, and maybe unwittingly paving the way for a later social-national movement).

Incidentally, even Jews, those who express criticism of Israel, or Jewish behaviour generally, are targeted: see https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/apr/23/dozens-of-members-of-uk-jewish-body-facing-disciplinary-action-over-criticism-of-israel.

Well-known Jews who have been mercilessly targeted by other Jews include the jazz musician Gilad Atzmon (I think that he is a half-Jew), author Michael Rosen, and the actress Miriam Margolyes. Another anti-Israel Jewess, the journalist Mira Bar-Hillel, too:

“Ms Bar-Hillel, who was born in Jerusalem and served as a folk singer in the IDF, claimed she was the victim of a trolling campaign. “You cannot criticise anything to do with Israel or Jews. You start by criticising Israeli government policy and then you get attacked by Jews,” she said…“I’m prejudiced against Jews who criticise me. Their religion has everything to do with it. I’m reporting something that’s horribly wrong with the policies of Israel and they attack me. In my long career no other group has acted in this way.

“When I’m being attacked I feel I’m being attacked by communal action. That community view is very dangerous. It is intimidation. The best way to respond to these things is to simply ignore them. It starts to be like a gang-bang.”

[Jewish Chronicle: https://www.thejc.com/news/mira-bar-hillel-agents-of-israel-attacked-me-for-criticisms-of-the-government-w16c8rnl]

Or so say two of the most misguided or wrongheaded (at best) “interventionists”, cheerleaders for the military destabilization of the Middle East, North Africa, and former Soviet Union.

Late thoughts

This blog punches above its weight. It may only have a relatively small number of regular readers (and far fewer commentators), but it has influenced many many people. It has reached directly about 150 states and territories in the world, and quite possibly all 200 or so indirectly.

I have always taken the view that “one human soul is a big audience“, and that if I can influence one young Alexander, Adolf Hitler, Mahatma Gandhi or, indeed, Moses, then the fact that I do not have a huge audience or a readership of millions becomes irrelevant. As Dietrich Eckart said when nearing the end of his life, “do not mourn me…I shall have influenced history more than any other German“.

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

I often see used distinctive phrases I myself have used (first) in the past, whether on the blog or from tweets when I still had a Twitter account (a pack of Jews had me expelled from Twitter in 2018, following a concerted campaign or conspiracy which lasted several years, and which continues).

For example, I think I was the first to use the terms “migration invasion” and “migrant invaders”, since echoed by many politicians and others, including even some Prominente from System parties.

If you put a drop of intense ultramarine dye into a pool, pond or lake, after a while, the water goes blue; all the water. My blog has that kind of influence, despite the fact that most of my blog posts have been read by, at most, only a few thousand people (each), even after several years.

It is because my blog has influence far beyond its actual numbers of readers that the Jew-Zionist lobby has made extensive efforts to shut it down over the past 8-9 years since first publication in late 2016.

Well, so far I am still here, and the blog is still being published near-daily, despite malicious complaints by Jews, despite backstairs attempts to procure prosecutions (by Israel puppets such as ex-MP —now “lord”— Ian Austin), despite repeated police interference, despite my having been put on trial in 2023, despite my having been sentenced in 2024, despite everything.

On the macro level, I see things beginning to move my way.

Diary Blog, 16 April 2025, including thoughts about cruelty to animals in Egypt, about Reform’s chances of having nearly 200 MPs elected, and about the Runcorn and Helsby by-election

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14614247/Dutch-woman-PUNCHES-man-beating-donkey-Egyptian-tourist-site-chases-whip.html

An animal-loving Dutch vigilante who attacked a man she saw beating a donkey in Egypt is now facing a lawsuit.

Astonishing footage shows expat Joke Van der Post punching the animal’s handler before chasing him with a whip as he tries to flee.

In the heartbreaking video – which has since gone viral – the donkey kicks out in agony as it is repeatedly lashed while tethered to a wall on the outskirts of Cairo.

Appalled by the horrific cruelty, the 47-year-old runs at the man before pinning him against a wall and striking him several times shouting, ‘You think you’re f****** normal.’

As the man tries to run away Ms Van der Post, who manages a veterinary practice called the Good Karma Sanctuary, grabs a whip from another donkey handler and chases him off into the distance.

The man filed a police complaint accusing Ms Van der Post of assault and claiming appearing in the viral video has caused him ‘psychological harm’, local media reports.”

[Daily Mail]

Treatment of animals in Egypt is often very bad, and most of the people there are cowardly wastes of space.

It is interesting to note that not only do Europeans run all or almost all of the animal welfare hospitals etc in Egypt, but also most of the efforts devoted to helping the Egyptian children etc born with various handicaps. The locals (I was told when I was there for a few months in the 1990s) regard such accidents or incidents of birth as a curse from God, and so need not be addressed at all. Backward Islamic or quasi-Islamic beliefs.

It is also interesting to note that modern Egypt was run best under the European influence of c.1860-1952 and in particular the years between the First and Second World Wars. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_Egypt.

In Alexandria, that time is known as the International Period. Far more civilized than Alexandria as it now is.

The Egyptian in that Daily Mail report is typical. Willing to hurt a defenceless donkey, but running away when a European woman confronted him. Pity he was not himself whipped.

I could tell of a number of instances when I saw that Egyptian coward/bully mentality. There are exceptions, and some of the Egyptians are better than that, but I think a small minority.

Look at the pathetic Egyptian Army. As the old joke has it, the only time (in the past few thousand years) when the Egyptians won a military victory was in the second act of Aida.

Really, it has to be admitted that Africa generally, and including North Africa , should be under civilized European rule.

If Sarah Vine (Daily Mail scribbler, and ex-wife of Israel/Jewish lobby puppet Michael Gove) is not Jew or part-Jew, I’ll eat my hat. Still, she apparently owns at least one book by David Irving, so the question remains at least somewhat open.

As for Seldon, as a well-known writer, historian etc, he should know that the USA lost its moral authority long ago, certainly by the time it became a “tail wags dog” state controlled by Israeli and other Jewish and Zionist interests under the two Bush presidents and Clinton, Obama, and Biden. You only have to think of the torture and perversity inflicted at Abu Ghraib, Bagram, Kabul, Guantanamo, and elsewhere.

Many of them will also be adjudged as having deserved to lose their heads, too. Let history judge (?).

Reform UK, Labour, and the Runcorn and Helsby by-election

The most recent opinion poll about nationwide political sympathies:

Well, that poll (with notional LibDem vote around 12%, and Greens on 10%) would result in a Commons with 198 Lab MPs, 187 Reform, and 156 Con (51 Libdems, 27 SNP, 4 Greens). The only possible government on those numbers would be a Reform/Con arrangement of some sort, having a majority of 17, and a working majority slightly bigger. https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

The polls are variable at present, but all tell the same story— Reform UK either the most popular party or a close second. Bearing in mind that Reform voters are said to be more motivated to actually vote than Lab or Con voters (and that fewer Lab voters vote by post, Con and Reform voters tending —so far— to be older and, by reason of that, less healthy), the real picture could well be even better for Reform.

I see the reality as being that at least a plurality of voters are absolutely sick of what Britain is becoming, and are therefore clutching at the Reform straw even though, in many cases, underwhelmed by both Reform and Farage. The voters who support Reform want to hit out at, and perhaps bury, both Lab and Con.

This should make the Runcorn and Helsby by-election even more interesting. The betting market (which I have found an unreliable guide to by-election results) has Reform as strongly odds-on favourite to win (about 1/3, with Labour around 5/2, and Conservatives around 8/1; there are 15 candidates in all). https://www.betfair.com/exchange/plus/politics/market/1.241434500.

I think and have blogged that Reform will smash it, but I concede that there are a number of factors in play. The constituency has Runcorn town as main voter pool, but even that is over 90% white, so the George Galloway vehicle, Workers’ Party, will probably come in 4th or 5th.

Turnout may or may not be low; if it is, Reform will benefit, probably. I wonder how many former Labour voters will turn out to vote for a nominally “Labour” government that has cheated pensioners, is intent on cheating and bullying the sick, disabled and unemployed, and which is at the same time throwing money at “Ukraine” (the brutal Zionist dictatorship in Kiev) and foreign aid recipients. All that, and while also presiding over ever-worse migration invasion, and the consequent street crime now seen everywhere.

The “experts” are still saying that the by-election will be close between Reform and Labour, but Labour seems less credible with every passing day. No less than 700 migrant-invaders landed on the beaches of England yesterday alone!

The Conservative Party under the Nigerian woman is a busted flush. In any case, in 2024 the Cons only scored 16% in the Runcorn and Helsby constituency.

Any 2024 Conservative Party voters who want to stick it to Labour have no choice but to vote Reform, tactically.

This by-election will be a pure test of the popularity of both Starmer-stein’s fake “Labour” government and of Reform UK. Its importance is huge.
