Today’s belated Diary Blog will be truncated by reason of a national, possibly international, attack of some sort on Internet provision; the blog will therefore consist mainly of tweets that struck my attention today. There will be relatively little analysis.
I have also been musing today about how so many who try to do bad things to me, or who have written or said bad things about me, suffer severe hits themselves one way or another. A number have even died from various causes, though not directly through any agency of mine, I should add.
The Scottish press (whose owners probably aren't Scottish at all) has developed a really virulent mutant strain of ethno-masochist insanity!#hundredhanderspic.twitter.com/SYVgT48NzN
I have noticed over the past decade how tied in with the Jew-Zionist lobby is the “Scottish” Daily Record.

The Army, Royal Marines etc are finding it hard to recruit suitable, or any sufficient number of personnel now. The population has changed and is still changing.

Today is a day I shall always remember – the day I was attacked on Twitter for 'picking fights'; by committing the heinous crime of *asking for evidence*. Worse yet, people approvingly retweeted and liked this attack. Yeah, the sheer nerve! Asking for evidence. Whatever next?
You wanted to see what the emergent UK ZOG/NWO police state looks like in an ordinary little street somewhere? Look no further…
Gosh, yeah,@authorgerald, how shocking, a journalist asking for *evidence* for the facts to back up public statements? The nerve of it! Why don't we groundlings just accept what we're told, and shut up? Because it's the road to Chernobyl, Thalidomide & the Iraq war, that's why. https://t.co/Gda3p3pxrH
1/2 @Nicklezard As recently as June 24, in official pamphlets for reopening shops and services, the Department for Business and Enterprise said repeatedly: ‘The evidence of the benefit of using a face covering to protect others is weak and the effect is likely to be small.’
Last night watched the brilliant new film 'Dear Comrades' about the Soviet massacre of protesting workers in Novocherkassk 1962. A much-needed reminder that the USSR *was* an evil empire, and of the consequences of leftist utopianism: https://t.co/8GF5jfmpHn
Naturally, films, TV shows, books too, about the evils of Sovietism are, and will be (until the causes are eliminated), outnumbered a thousand to one by films, TV shows, books etc about the supposed evils of the Third Reich, for the simple reason that Zionist Jews control the film industry, TV companies (including the BBC) and publishing empires across the Western world.

“A large part of the problem is the personality of Boris Johnson – a public relations artist, not a policy-maker. He is guided by what he thinks public opinion will want. He is a follower, not a leader.“
Nice to see a former Lord of Appeal echo what I have been writing for years. A part-Jew clown posing as Prime Minister. The results were predictable.
This, by @MichaelPSenger in 'Tablet' is fascinating:“trying to contain a city of 11 million people is new to science … The lockdown of 11 million people is unprecedented in public health history, so it is certainly not a recommendation the WHO has made.” https://t.co/ZKiwdUXMRl
No. I am contacted daily by followers whose accounts have been entered and altered without their knowledge or permission.@Alfiebengal. If followers genuinely unfollow, they don’t do so in the small hours in batches of 300. https://t.co/dPoaWXRtGb
No, @jordag99. Every day several followers tell me their accounts have been entered and altered without their knowledge or permission. Don’t be so complacent and gullible. The facts contradict your belief. https://t.co/yjheObdjTQ
It seems I am not permitted to rise above 155,000 followers. 300 of my followers were cancelled in the night. Based on past experience, at least some of their accounts were entered and altered by unknown persons without their permission or knowledge . Were you one of them?
More Twitter shenanigans. I noticed an interview with Twitter’s former head of European affairs. Seemed to be a Jew. What a surprise.
In fact, when I was expelled from Twitter in 2018 (after a small pack of Jews targeted me), I had just on 3,000 “followers”, which I suppose equates to about 6,000 in 2021 (the “follower” count increases for most accounts over time almost automatically). The funny thing was that the level was kept (apparently artificially) just below 3,000; had been for some time. Obviously manipulated.
I don’t doubt it @daviet10. But as yet no counterpoise to the SNP exists or is being created, just as England has no anti-Blairite political formation. So you are borne away on the current, alas. https://t.co/Ssimu9lXEo
Columnist Peter Hitchens says a second Scottish independence referendum is now inevitable: "Let them go if they want to".@Iromg | @ClarkeMicah | @talkRADIO pic.twitter.com/mPKLjoCuFr
I have blogged about these matter previously. While I usually steer clear of Scottish politics, not having much studied the subject (and having never even visited the country), the overall effect on Westminster is a different matter.
If the presently-ruling SNP, as Scottish Government, holds some form of referendum and decides to leave the UK, as Hitchens seems to be saying, the Westminster government would have a choice: to repress that, as the Madrid government has done in Catalonia, or to say “au revoir” and “see you again“… I do not think that out and out repression would be the right response.
I do not see any need to remove the “Saltire” —St. Andrew’s Cross— from the Union flag even if Scotland declares “Independence”. The Union flag, now, reflects the historical position or record, nothing more.
The effect on Westminster politics of Scotland leaving the UK would be nuclear, however. I have examined this previously in detail, but in essence the position would be that 59 Scottish Westminster seats would go, 47-48 of them (1 SNP MP had whip removed) at present being SNP seats, only 6 Scottish Conservative seats.
It can be seen that that would leave Labour, in England and Wales, up that well-known creek without a paddle. It would be almost impossible for Labour even to form a minority government at Westminster (though I concede that “never say never” in UK politics).
On 2019 General Election results, that would mean that there would be 591 seats in the House of Commons, of which 364 would be Conservative, 201 Labour, 7 LibDem, 4 Plaid Cymru, and 1 Green (leaving 19 others aside).
On 2017 General Election results, the situation would be Conservative 316, Labour 256, LibDem 8, Plaid 4, Green 1 (leaving 18 others aside).
It can be seen the the Conservative Party would have a 60-seat overall majority on 2019 figures, and a 29-seat overall majority even on 2017 figures. Bearing in mind that the Speaker does not usually vote, and that Sinn Fein never take their seats, those majorities in practical terms increase by about 16 in both scenarii. So either a 76-seat majority or one of 45. Unassailable.
On the strategic level, I imagine that the Kremlin would regard Scottish withdrawal from the UK as a windfall of huge proportions, fracturing the NATO alliance and removing, probably, UK/NATO military, naval, and air deployments from Scottish territory.
On the UK domestic political level, it would mean that a Labour vote might be a wasted vote, and that there would be an embedded Conservative elected dictatorship anchored in Southern England. Labour as we now know it would retreat even more into being the party of the “blacks and browns” and/or public service employees, and there would be a far greater chance for social nationalism to go mainstream. On that basis, then, bring it on!

Seems that the UK Government is proposing to do away with anonymity on Twitter and other social media platforms. Oddly, some of the Jew-Zionist element have been pressing for this, which is ironic in that (alongside others) I (who always tweeted from one Twitter account in my own name) was trolled relentlessly by (mainly) Jews, many of whom affected anonymity, though some were eventually exposed in court in cases involving others.
A couple of the several guilty (almost all connected with the fake charity known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism”) were Stephen Silverman of South Essex, who trolled under a number of pseudonyms until found out (now using the main account “@ssilvuk”), and Stephen Applebaum of Watford/Edgware, who also used a number of accounts (contrary to Twitter rules…) but who now mainly tweets as “@grubstreetsteve” and “@rattus2384”. Both of those named were exposed by the CAA’s own lawyer during a preliminary hearing in one of the Alison Chabloz private prosecutions (persecutions).
Neither Silverman nor Applebaum were ever charged with any offence for such activities. Silverman was supposed to be interviewed by police but weaselled out of attending, helped by “CAA” lawyers.
I have no great objection to the proposed new social media rules or laws on identity. I myself have never been a “troll”, indeed have been the target for trolls. As I say, mainly Jews and/or “antifascist” deadheads.
In a way, I look forward to the exposure of the identities of certain trolls presently anonymous or pseudonymous. A few of them must have fear in their hearts. Rightly so.

I like what little I have heard of these “hundred-handers”. They are, it seems, akin to the samizdat (self-publishing) dissidents in the Soviet Union during the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s.

More tweets
Not as much as Johnson laughed when the ‘Corbyn Out’ lot sabotaged their own party & ensured the Tories won the last election. And it scarcely matters what socialists say, Starmer is tanking in the polls by his own efforts anyway.
Well, “Dr.” Raw does have a point. True, Labour is closer behind the Conservative Party than was the case at the 2019 General Election, but that is mainly because the Jewish press (both msm and otherwise) has almost stopped demonizing Labour now that Jewish-lobby puppet Starmer is leader.
Still, looking at the incompetence and nonsense of the present ZOG/NWO regime at Downing Street, it might have been expected that Labour would be miles ahead. It might be, were it a real Opposition, but Starmer just supports everything that “Boris”-idiot is doing, but says that it should be done more! Lockdown, the facemask nonsense, you name it. On immigration, Labour cannot attack the Government’s poor record, because Labour still favours mass immigration…
An elderly lady I once knew used to say, in the 1980s, if a picture of Brittan came up on TV, “doesn’t that snout just need kicking?!“
When you wake up tomorrow, it will be February. But it will feel remarkably similar to January. As will March. Unless you #UseYourVoice and speak out to get our country back to normal. There will always be another demand for another week or month of lockdown. So speak out. Now.
The first tweeter has a “prison” mentality: obey the “rules”, denounce “rulebreakers”, and maybe the “authorities” will “allow” you a period of outside exercise every day…
Ironic…if I am not mistaken, that “antifascist” tweeter, “@jdpoc” (who in the past has tweeted against me) was quite recently tweeting something online about his own “issues”…
Par for the course, it seems.

I could write a book about the immigration cases I did in the early 1990s; I appeared before immigration tribunals at first instance, in the Immigration Appeal Tribunal, and also in the High Court (on judicial review applications).
Some cases were run of the mill, involving marriages etc, others involved fugitive members of foreign secret services, and yet others alleged members of extremist or “terrorist” groups (mostly Kurdish).
Check out the comments beneath this article. Cancel culture is:

This is the tweet that has resulted in my expulsion from my chambers.
Cancel culture means that the mainstream can proselytise but that when populists present a counter-narrative they must be driven out of mainstream society.
MSM going mad about Russian police and their rough tactics. The Russian police are rough at times. Russia is a rough country. So what is the excuse of the Dutch police, who on the weekend were using mounted police, water cannon, and rubber bullets on pensioners and young women (among others) protesting about the “lockdown” repression? The Dutch mounted police were filmed cracking open the heads of fleeing protestors with heavy clubs.
Strangely enough, the UK msm went mad today about Russia, but forgot to mention the Netherlands. BBC propaganda was blatant. All very (((odd))).
Late music
Below, same orchestra, same conductor (the composer) but a different recording of Hanson’s Romantic Symphony , with far better sound quality:
Oh, God. Apparently, it is some kind of “holocaust” commemoration today, and Radio 4 steps up yet again, with the ubiquitous Jewish rabbi Julia Neuberger on Prayer for the Day, the early morning “god slot”. Talks about how Soviet General Petrenko was “appalled” at the supposed crimes of the “Nazis”. Well, of course he would have been “appalled”, being a high-ranking Stalinist! Oh, no, wait…
Have Radio 4 producers or editors never heard of the “GULAG Archipelago“? The Yezhovshchina? The Ukrainian famine? The other purges? The tortures?
More to the point, when and how did the BBC, and especially Radio 4, and especially the once-magisterial Today Programme and its offshoot bits and pieces, get so completely taken over? Jews are only 0.5% of the UK population, if that, but have colonized not only Radio 4 Today Programme but much of the msm over the past decades, and especially since, about, 1989.
As for the Today Programme generally, it has, like PM and other shows, become almost unlistenable. I switch off after a short while.
Keir Starmer is a Jewish-lobby puppet. He is more “competent” than Boris-idiot, but then almost anyone would be. “Competence” is necessary (or should be) in an administrator; in a political leader, “the vision thing” mentioned by George Bush snr. is, well, the “thing”. Boris-idiot has no vision. Neither has Keir Starmer. That is part of Labour’s problem.
Corbyn had a kind of vision, a kind of backward-looking vision of Britain. Not Britain as it ever was, but a sort of cartoon British history based on “Teach Yourself Marxism” meets “Wokeness”: undifferentiated “feudalism” from ancient times, leading up to some time around the English Civil War, and focussing on Levellers etc. Then the era of the Luddites and later Chartists. The Tolpuddle Martyrs. The founding of the trade unions, and the Labour Party.
Corbyn’s cartoon history of the UK would then take in the 1926 General Strike, the Jarrow March, the “Battle of Cable Street”, a few foreign aspects such as the Front Populaire, and Trotskyism, a risibly black-and-white version of the Second World War, then the NHS, social housing, new towns; the good ship Windrush and Commonwealth immigration (thought of by Corbyn as something good!). Finally, Thatcherism, the Miners’ Strike, Blairism and the betrayal of socialist principle, followed by 2010-2019 “Tory Austerity”.
Not that that view of British and European history is exactly or wholly “wrong”, in that those events were all aspects of it. The problem is that such a tableau contains no nuance and only a minute fraction of the real events and trends.
As for Corbyn’s vision of Britain’s future, it would be a compendium consisting of happy smiling workers of various races advancing to a radiant multikulti future, a Britain where trade unions worked with “socialist” “anti-racist” Labour politicians to eliminate “racism”, “sexism” and any form of inequality, in a Britain where borders were open to all, social services excellent and open freely to anyone just off the boat, where there was to be no conflict, magic money funding high pay and benefits, as well as quality public housing and transport (despite mass immigration), a Britain with no dissent except in how to move forward the socialist agenda, and no “fascism” or —God forbid!— “neo-Nazi” tendency.
The above Corbynist agenda and vision, of course, had as little reality as a Superman cartoon. In a way, it was the Jewish element that was the stumbling-block. Not that Corbyn was particularly “anti-Semitic” from my point of view (and after all, I ought to know!). It was more that Jews, with their “tribal” loyalty and clannishness, their materialism, their pushiness, their interest in financial advancement etc, not to mention their pragmatism, got in the way of that idealized and completely unworkable vision of an ideal post-Marxist “socialist” Britain and world.
Where would the Jews have fitted into that “Corbynist” vision? Nowhere. Corbyn knew it. His advisers, such as Seumas Milne, knew it. The Jews themselves knew it. Thus was set the stage for the conflict between the Jews and Jewish lobby against Corbyn and the Labour Party.
The Jews won. Corbyn and Labour lost. The tweets below make the point:
So you’re not going to condem CAA’s Joe Glasman Supremacist rant just because he’s a Zionist Jew? https://t.co/zZvuGe5HWg
That is where Labour now is: it is a battlefield after the “mother of all battles”, a battlefield strewn with the bodies of the fallen, Corbyn among them.
Labour stopped being “socialist”, even in theory, sometime around 1990-ish. Clause 4 was deleted, nationalization scrapped. Under Blair and Brown, it is hard to see Labour even as having been social-democratic.
The expenses scandal that rocked the end of the 1997-2010 Labour period was driven not only by criminal greed (on the part of both Labour and Conservative MPs) but by the wish on the part of Labour MPs (too) to live a rather affluent “bourgeois” life. Not only by cheating and freeloading on expenses, but by getting as much outside “work” as possible.
Thus we saw, for example, Tom Watson raking in a regular £500 per month expenses (extra, on top of salary and general expenses) for food alone; we saw outright fraud; we saw Patricia Hewitt and others selling influence for hard cash. And so on…
Labour MPs and officials married affluent people, often those with profitable businesses. Corbyn Labour as well as “centrist” Labour:
“[Seamus] Milne married Cristina Montanari, an Italian-born director of an advertising firm, in 1992. The couple have two now-adult children, a son and daughter, who were educated at selective grammar schools in Kingston upon Thames.” [Wikipedia; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seumas_Milne].
Diane Abbott, another Corbyn supporter, educated her own children privately, while insisting that only State schools would exist in the future…
Even the “hardline socialists” of Corbyn-Labour were basically a bunch of fakes (I refer to the MPs and officials, not the bamboozled mugs at rank-and-file level).
Keir Starmer is now effectively in charge of a party which is a wasteland. It stands for nothing, offers nothing, looks forward to nothing.
Where does that leave Labour, electorally? In fact, in a slightly better position than where it was under Corbyn.
For one thing, the Jewish Press (and I refer to the msm outlets as well as the specifically “Jewish” Press such as the Jewish Chronicle) stopped attacking Labour as soon as Zionist puppet Starmer became leader. In a country as manipulated as the UK, that must have an effect.
There again, the Conservative Party has little support among under-30s. The “virus” is killing old people, mainly. That must play to Labour’s advantage, in that only a tiny number of people of 70 years of age or greater now vote Labour.
Also, the blacks and browns are breeding fast, and they mostly vote Labour.
Having said that, the only way, at present, that Labour could form a government, would be with SNP help. If Scotland chooses Independence (however fake), that removes 50-60 Commons votes from any coalition or alliance.
All three main or System parties are failing, but Labour is, arguably, failing fastest, not least because it is not “opposing”, and because it can have no vision.

The truth of that was made manifest in the survival of decency and culture within families even in the terrible milieu of Jewish Bolshevism, and later Stalinism, in the Soviet Union of the 1920s, 1930s, 1940s,1950s, and on to the collapse of socialism around 1989. I suppose that the worst time for secrecy plus denunciation was the 1930s, especially the Yezhovshchina of 1937-1939, and then the late 1940s.

In fact, the “Conservative” government “child spies” campaign or proposal is merely the logical consequence of what has gone before (in recent years); it is a continuation of what already exists.
In and after 2010, we saw part-Jew Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne, call upon curtain-twitching pleb-Cons to “report” their neighbours who were unemployed and/or disabled, and who might be sleeping late rather than hurrying and scurrying to “seek work” (often unobtainable anyway) in the (((finance-capitalist))) economy.
For years we have seen the authorities demand that neighbours, families, churches, mosques, schoolteachers, even Church of England priests (if there are any left who are not arse-faced lesbians), report or denounce their own families, and friends, acquaintainces, pupils, parishioners etc; not only for “terrorism”, by the way, but also for supporting animal welfare, for opposing mass immigration (migration-invasion) etc. The government even established “Morozovist” organizations, such as “Prevent” and “Channel”, in order to facilitate it all.
More recently, we have see government attempts to get people to denounce neighbours, friends, family who might have exceeded the arbitrary “Rule of Six” invented by Boris-idiot, or who might actually have invited family members to visit at Christmas.
Over the years, we have seen the users of Twitter etc delight in “reporting” “wrong thinking” and “wrong speaking” people to Twitter, or to police, or to others who might punish the dissident. Employers, academic institutions etc. As always, the Jewish element was in the forefront in “reporting” people, though others joined in, particularly the “antifa” idiot-crowd, and the allied self-describing “Left”.
Now this.
I wonder whether Jewish lobby puppet Keir Starmer will go along (yet again) with what this government is going and proposing?
The real agenda lies behind the supposed reasons for the “reporting” campaigns; to create a serf or slave society somewhere down the line.
Final thought (for today) on all that: remember what happened to Pavel Morozov. After all, if you play by Moscow Rules…
I wonder where the blacks, browns, even Orientals would be, had our white European civilization, especially that developed since about 1400 AD, never existed? Oh, no, wait…
I’ve absolutely had enough of people saying ‘This is not a proper lockdown’ when so many are struggling to cope with it. What do these lockdown zealots want? For us all to be welded inside our own homes till the summer? I’m genuinely shocked by the authoritarianism we’re seeing.
What we are seeing is not exactly “authoritarianism” but the infantilism of, mostly, the self-describing “Left”, who just want to be told what to do by the Big Brother State. Those types are the core of the lockdown and facemask zealotry. A chance for them to see people bullied and bossed around, while retaining a figleaf of “caring sharing” fakery at the same time.
EXCLUSIVE: Boohoo is set to acquire the Debenhams brand in a deal that will resemble the online retailer's previous swoops on Karen Millen and Oasis

Just what I was blogging about recently. I shall be laughing when the UK and connected “antifascist” Twitter-twits are expelled. They have little or nothing else.
A now-deceased friend of mine, acquainted with both Mosley and his wife Diana in the 1950s, always said that Mosley’s mistake was to accentuate the “Man of Action” and military aspect of his character (genuine though that was: WW1 officer of both the Army and the Royal Flying Corps; wounded in action), while playing down his more intellectual side (which my friend thought reflected his overall character more, though in the late 1950s Mosley was, of course, over 60).
UK quarantine
Unless the Government simply props up airlines and travel companies (pointlessly), they are finished. Who on Earth will book a foreign holiday from the UK when that tourist (and family, if any) will now quite likely have to spend 10-14 days quarantined in a guarded hotel, and even have to pay for their own incarceration?! Forget it.
In fact, the country where the tourist is booked may also impose some such requirement, and at short notice…
In short, the travel and tourism sector, both domestic and overseas, is totally screwed, as are its huge number of employees.
Incidentally, the whole travel and tourism sector in the UK employs a total of 3.8 million people, about 11% of the entire UK workforce.
Let's help him out. Here is Czechia. It closed its borders, locked down and introduced compulsory masking outside of residence *before* the UK went into Lockdown.

Sir Simon Stevens says he expects lockdown to be eased gradually in Spring / summer: "It is not going to be the case that on Valentines Day with one band we are free. But equally we wont have to want until the autumn. Somewhere in the middle will be true." #Marr
Kate Ferguson, who is apparently Westminster Correspondent at the Sun “newspaper”, and who apparently does not know that the phrase she is trying to use is a variant of “…and with one bound he was free”… I mean, this is not some ignorant pleb tweeting. Oh, no…wait…
Yet another unintended comment on the state of British “journalism” and “journalists” today.
It says it all about how small the British establishment is that the NHS boss Sir Simon Stevens was involved, as an undergraduate, helping Boris Johnson get elected as President of the Oxford Union. 35 years later and they are playing the same games. pic.twitter.com/zYxcXiHTxI
The various Government measures to mitigate, not the virus but the Government’s own policies in relation to it (“lockdowns”, “tiers”, quarantining, etc) bought off real popular opposition last year. The Government took a leaf from the book of Aneurin Bevan [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aneurin_Bevan], who said that he had bought off opposition from medical doctors to the establishment of the NHS by having “stuffed their mouths with gold” (i.e. allowing senior doctors (“consultants”) to take on private work as well as receiving relatively high NHS pay).
“Furlough” payments ensured that, in 2020, many received effectively the same pay as before, but for no work (“furlough” was capped at 80% of net pay to a maximum of £2,500 p.c.m., but that was close to 100% for most, when the costs of just having a job are factored in: travel, snacks, drinks, clothes etc).
Many others were able to “work from home”, which might have had disadvantages for some but many advantages for others: no travel costs; a saving of (?) 1-5 hours of travel on the day, depending on the commute; the possibility to organize the day to suit the employee; no “boss” people supervizing the employee directly, or able to see what the employee is doing during the working day.
Naturally, the higher-paid working from home would have been, and are, in a better position than the lower-paid: perhaps large detached houses, perhaps also with swimming pools, tennis courts, large gardens in which to relax etc. One could imagine some, working in between swimming, and perhaps drinking Chardonnay ordered online and delivered to the door (I seem to remember that, even nearly 20 years ago, Sainsbury’s would not only deliver my wife’s orders, but actually take the stuff into the kitchen for her).
Also, companies started to demand Government help. Even those run by tax exiles such as Richard Branson. Some help was given.
Not everyone was taken care of by Government largesse. The self-employed, thhose running the smaller and one-man companies etc. The majority of the population, though, was shut up in both senses by Government order and Government money. Even the unemployed (etc) on Universal Credit, got a £20 a week increase.
Now, however, after much to-ing and fro-ing, we find ourselves back in “lockdown”.
Once again, the furlough is extended. Once again, failing businesses are, in some cases, being propped up, smaller airports among them. For how long, though?
Today, we heard that Newquay Airport (which I myself used a few times in the past) will be given money. I do not know whether other airports I used to use, e.g. Exeter and Southampton, are in a similar position.
Let us examine what might happen. Let us say that “the virus”, whether because of natural decline, the vaccine(s), whatever, disappears some time in 2021 from the UK. Air travel will take a long long time to recover, especially if countries are to insist on quarantines and “virus-free” certification. Will UK airports, airlines, ground services etc need or demand propping-up for years? Is that even possible?
We read that the UK Government can borrow money at very low, almost zero, interest at present. Good, but for how long?
We now read that the Government wants to reduce Universal Credit by £20 a week, while chucking those currently on it £500 in cash. There may be a revolt by Conservative MPs, and a possible Government defeat in the coming days.
The argument over UC payments presages coming disputes. No matter how much can currently be borrowed by the UK Government, eventually that will become unsustainable. What then? Already, State benefits paid to the unemployed are at their lowest since 1992 and, according to other calculation, overall benefits were not this low in real terms since the 1960s, which however was a era of, effectively, full employment.
The present government cannot simply, say, raise the State Pension (“Old Age Pension”, as was) entitlement age from 66, where it will be from 2022, to he age of 67, or 68, or 70, not without a massive backlash from voters aged over 65, and they are a half of all Conservative supporters: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-politics-47909281. They are also far more likely to vote.
In other words, if the present government hits the pensioners or those looking at shortly becoming pensioners, it is toast.
The Government is looking at the unemployed and others as targets because they are less significant electorally, though at the same time, 40% of UC claimants are actually not unemployed but are in low-paid work.
Unsurprisingly, Indian “clever boy” Rishi Sunak is not going to introduce a windfall wealth tax. He wants to extract money from the poor or poor-ish, while not dooming his party electorally.
What about demand in the economy? Already low. The poor spend all or almost all of what they have; they have no choice. The rich, given extra money, invest it, often in hedging assets: property, savings accounts, gold etc. It makes sense to give more to the poor and less to the rich (however defined).
Once the various mitigation measures tail off, unemployment —and discontent—– will soar.
One can see storms coming. God grant social-nationalism the way in which to take advantage of them for the good of the people. “For the good of the people is the highest law” [Cicero].
Meanwhile, the USA has concentration camps today, both at Guantanamo and elsewhere, including secret ones.

Surprising, perhaps, that Andrew Neil put it that way, but then again he is very much pro-Jew and pro-Israel, and ranted a few times on TV (on his now-defunct late-night BBC2 show) about “Nazis”, “racists” etc. Demeaning (to him); it takes the gloss off his being the best political interviewer in the UK.

A Judge's political lecture to a defendant goes against all the rules of British justice. Here we are tried for what we do, not for what we think. But is this still true? https://t.co/OPChZQinof
“The whole point of the law is its cool impartiality, its judgment of the facts by a jury, and of the law by an impartial, dispassionate judge. If judges are going to start offering politico-medical lectures from the bench, it changes us into a completely different kind of country. In effect, a defendant in such cases is on trial for his opinions, not his actions.
Does Judge Matthews desire such a state of affairs? I doubt it. In that case she should not do this again. But I fear someone else will. Much that we used to know and trust about this country is vanishing with amazing speed.” [Peter Hitchens, Daily Mail].
All very true. Part of the problem is that “District Judges” (the old stipendiary magistrates) are not, in the traditional sense, real “judges”. Mostly solicitors who have applied for these rather simple jobs, which however pay quite well (I think that a full-time DJ gets about £110,000 p.a. now).

Still think that you are living in (what people long ago called) “a free country”? Police state.
Yes, at present only a “toytown” police state, but steadily becoming a real one. Tyrannical government, no real Opposition in Parliament (quite the reverse, in fact), the Press, TV, radio almost entirely pumping out System propaganda, the police becoming a Stasi-lite, the law corrupted or ignored, Government wishes (sub nom “guidance” and “advice”, or made-up “rules”) treated by the police as if “law”, while the courts are silent or craven.
At present it is “iron fist in velvet glove”, but for how long?
A debate which has been around for hundreds, maybe thousands, of years. On the one hand, cities are the fount of organized culture and science, along with other desirable things; on the other hand, cities are sinks of dirt, corruption, decadence and evil.
Marx referred to “rural idiocy”, a point of view arguably typically Jewish; the Jews have long been associated with urban life, though not exclusively: there were once plenty of rural Jews in the Pale of Settlement (Western Russia and what is now Belarus), and also in Poland and Ukraine.
On the other hand, writers, poets and thinkers have always existed who were ready to extol the country life, and even life in the wilderness. Virgil, Rousseau and Thoreau among many others.
Perhaps the best way to look upon these questions of urbanization and rurality is to say that there can be decent and aesthetically-pleasing cities, and there can be a rural life with high cultural and living standards. There must be the will to create both.

Dyson is but one example of very wealthy persons buying lands in huge quantity in England and also Scotland at present. I myself have noticed how few large estates are on sale for long before being bought. I am sure that it is partly by reason of a drive for security. London is becoming a zoo. Who knows how long it will be safe for the wealthy? Also, in circumstances of socio-economic and/or socio-political meltdown—which may develop— rural estates are safer than London houses.
There is also the point that land is a hedging asset in a way that cash and equities (shares) are not. The pound must be sliding from now. Not just the “panicdemic”, but mishandled Brexit/Brino as well. We have just been told that the UK economy contracted by nearly 3% recently. Yes, the Government can borrow to distribute largesse— for a while. Not indefinitely, though.
I was just reading some American anti-Gates Twitter accounts talking about these issues. One fellow said that he has bought 1 acre and intends to build his own home on it and grow things. Fine, though an acre is very little, but, while that may be straightforward in parts of the USA, in Western Europe there are so many factors etc to overcome. God help the man who buys an acre of Devon or Dorset and just builds his own home on it without planning permission etc.

Below, “Antifa” cheerleader (always from a very safe distance) and serial grifter, Mike Stuchbery, attacks the memory of Ashli Babbitt, an American woman who, though unarmed, was shot dead at the US Capitol building recently:

Stuchbery, who used to pose as “historian” and “journalist” (in fact, he was briefly a “supply” —i.e. temporary— teacher, who was sacked for reasons unclear) is now living off German welfare payments in Stuttgart (he also seems to scribble a bit for politically-tendentious online websites). I have blogged about him previously (he later sent, a couple of times, puerile and would-be threatening messages to me as a result): https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/10/23/a-few-words-about-mike-stuchbery/
Quite funny. First of all, and despite her extensive education (her father was a wealthy timber merchant, of the sort mentioned in Russian literature of the 19thC), Rosa Luxemburg was an idiot. She died before she was able to see most of the devastation wrought by Soviet socialism. Her own ideas were, arguably, typically Jewish, tending to protest, dissolution, revolution and chaos. Even had she been gifted power, she would have been unable to do anything positive with it.
Incidentally, her Wikipedia entry initially describes her as “Polish”, rather than “Jewish”, because of her having been born in Poland [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosa_Luxemburg]! The (((influence))) is very obvious in parts of Wikipedia.
Sad. Give the bird a chance. It can always be prevented from mating, if that is the problem. There’s no do-gooder “conservationist” as extreme as an Australian one (unless it’s a German one).
Ironic, though. A poor pigeon makes an epic journey to Australia and will be killed, but the idiots in Australia have let in every kind of ethnic riff-raff, and those idiots in Canberra and elsewhere pat themselves on the back for being so “hospitable” and “diverse”!
[update: it turns out that the pigeon was probably not from the USA, and so will not now be killed].

This is the problem not only in relation to the “panicdemic” but also in relation to other issues which scarcely impact on the very wealthy, and only peripherally on the merely very affluent Westminster denizens, whether politicians or msm drones. Immigration. Poor roads. Poor public transport. Crime (mostly committed by immigrants and/or their offspring). Declining quality of the NHS. Poor pay for most. Poor education.
In fact, the very wealthy don’t necessarily care much about most of those issues. Immigration? No problem (cheap labour inc. domestic help; and no immigrant “communities” live anywhere near them or in the same buildings). Poor rail and roads? No problem (private planes and helicopters, supplemented by chauffeur-driven or other Range-Rovers and other expensive cars). Crime? No problem (private security, expensive alarms etc). NHS problems? No problem (private healthcare, money for medicines unavailable on NHS…). Poor pay? No problem (inherited or other wealth). Poor education? No problem (anyone with wealth can pay for expensive schools and/or private tutors).
Out of 150,000+ tweets and retweets posted over a number of years, and about 100 complained of by those Jews, a mere 7 (SEVEN!) were thought to be “grossly offensive” by the BSB and so formed the basis for the quasi-trial (Bar Disciplinary Tribunal hearing) in October 2016.
In fact, the allegedly offensive tweets were reduced in number at hearing to only 5 (FIVE). Out of 150,000+…Over 6 years of Twitter membership.
My point here is other, to wit that my tweets, all general comments about society and politics, were true in all particulars. One, at which the Tribunal took particular offence, was that Michael Gove [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Gove] was “a pro-Israel, pro-Jew expenses cheat“. That was deemed “grossly offensive” despite the fact that the facts alleged by me were, in fact, facts.
In other words, I was condemned for having tweeted the truth. Where is the greater offence, the crimes or defaults of a politician, or the tweets posted and which commented on those defaults?
I might add that, in 2016, the general public was not aware (neither was I) that snivelling Jewish-lobby puppet Gove was (is?) also a regular cocaine abuser.
The other four tweets which sank me at Tribunal were also all true…
Truth is often no defence in the public-private politically correct and Zionist-dominated police state of 2020 Britain.

Thank you @chrisadelaide. I suspect I ride much more slowly than you. One interesting statistic is the *tiny* number of fatalities so far among users of the (slow and heavy) London hire bikes, despite tangling with London traffic. https://t.co/pGQdhDyxNf
Bicycle riders are a nuisance, especially in the semi-rural English coastal area where I live; dark clothing, often no lights, usually no street lighting. Having said that, car drivers are often very negligent too.
My own niece, an Australian citizen working temporarily in West London, was knocked off her pushbike early in the year, and was lucky not to have been badly injured. The “accident” happened at an intersection where she had the right of way. The driver briefly stopped , then sped off. The police (who could have seized cctv evidence from nearby businesses, but did not), were useless. The hit-and-run driver, probably a non-European, has never been traced, identified, or punished.
I agree with Hitchens on the liberty point (not to have to wear helmets) but it is true that many have lost their lives by reason of not having been wearing helmets.
Ig told me that his nephew had suddenly fallen down at home (in the Caversham Park suburb close to the monitoring station; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caversham_Park_Village); he later died. Ig was (unwarrantedly) suspicious of the nephew’s girlfriend, with whom the deceased had recently had a child; mother and baby also lived in the house.
Ig seemed to think that the young woman, a Ukrainian in her twenties, might have had a drunken argument with the nephew, and hit him with something. There had been a head injury, but the police were not treating it as suspicious.
Having heard of the deceased nephew (and having once briefly met him in London, several years before these events), I was aware that he was a fairly heavy drinker. On the night of the death he had apparently taken a fairly considerable amount of drink at the bar within the monitoring centre.
Anyway, I attended the inquest held in Reading, though only as observer (I was at the time not yet Called to the Bar). Ig had instructed Counsel, a fairly confident young woman whose name escapes me but who made a career at the Bar (I used to see her around the Inns in later years).
The inquest was a rather sad waste of time, as many are. The trail seemed to have gone cold.
However, some weeks after that, the report of the inquest, printed in the local newspaper, brought forth a bus driver who declared that he had been driving his bus one evening when a cyclist, not stopping where a cycle path met the road, and the man not wearing a helmet, had shot across in front of the bus, which had stopped short; the cyclist had, despite not having been struck, fallen off onto the road. He had been helped up, and had continued on his way, obviously somewhat the worse for drink.
So there it was. No espionage connection, no drunken domestic argument and assault, just a somewhat intoxicated man who fell off a pushbike and was not wearing a safety helmet. His choice, his accident, his death.
3/3 @ianguth07700494 Unthinking claims in favour of helmets could be used to impose a helmet law, which would greatly reduce cycling and so diminish its huge health benefits to those who decide not to bother if such laws are introduced. https://t.co/xfjHy6mbs1

Woke up to some interminable BBC World Service Outlook programme, based around a black girl with sickle cell anaemia. Next up was something called Witness History, which might have been better entitled Witless History. Basically, more anti-white, anti-European propaganda, this time based around the history of UNESCO, and featuring an angry, shouting UN career “diplomat” from Senegal.

“In your nothing I hope to find my everything” [Goethe, Faust; Faust to Mephistopheles]
Ukraine
As Peter Hitchens has written, Ukraine has been at the centre of many of the conflicts of the past century. Bolshevism, the White Guard, the Russian Civil War, Collectivization, Lebensraum, the war of 1941-45 etc.
During the Second World War, many Ukrainians supported the German invasion, as they had the German anti-Bolshevik occupation after the First World War.
Now we have a situation which has developed from that where the old Soviet Union collapsed and, understandably, after 70 years of Sovietism and/or war, many Ukrainians felt that they would be better off independent of Russia, an aim of many since the 19th Century.
Sadly, many of the hopes of the Ukrainians were dashed in the 1990s and thereafter. Corruption, poverty, gangsterism, and a wave of Jewish carpetbaggers arriving from the USA and elsewhere. I even saw that some Jewess from Maida Vale (the area of London where I spent most time over the years) had bought a confectionery factory there!
Now, Ukraine’s President, Prime Minister, and other top figures are Jews! One is even a Israeli citizen!
Ukraine was the germ of Russia itself. The Vikings, or “Varangians” as they are known in Russia, sailed down the great rivers of that part of the world (Don, Dniepr, Volga etc) and founded Kievan Rus, which is where Russia began, along with Novgorod: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kievan_Rus%27.
[Nikolai Roerich: Guests from Overseas]
Ukraine and Russia have always developed together. Not always in great harmony, but always together. That partnership is now fragile and under attack.
The Crimea was placed administratively under the control of the Soviet republic of Ukraine in 1954: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimea. The population, though, is mainly Russian (65%; Ukrainians 15%; Crimean Tartars 10%; others 10%).
The Russian reassertion of sovereignty in 2014 was opposed by “the West” (NWO), which since then has completely taken over “independent” Ukraine and is building a great naval base on territory controlled by the Kiev government.
As Peter Hitchens says, these “NATO” (NWO) incursions are a direct threat to Russia, to its integrity and future. As Hitchens notes, imagine what would happen if the Russians did something similar in the Gulf of Mexico…
We may be looking here at the genesis of World War Three. At the same time, “NATO” forces are engaged in military exercises both in Ukraine and in the Baltic states.
Without Ukraine at least as neutral, Russia, as a near-superpower, is no longer in existence. Indeed, it would be not very viable, long-term, as a state at all, especially looking at the slow infiltration of Chinese influence in the Eastern part of Siberia (the former Soviet Far East).
[“Russia does not have borders; it is wherever there are Russian people”]
Russia may be relatively poor compared to the USA and the EU, but it has both nuclear and non-nuclear forces which can match the “West”. Yes, the USA can destroy Russian cities and bases ten times over, and it is not known for sure whether the Russians can destroy the similar American targets ten times over, five times, or only once! Is there any difference?
In fact, were, say, New York, Washington DC, Seattle, LA, San Francisco, Chicago, Houston, Atlanta, Philadelphia and Boston to be destroyed, would the USA even be able to function? Would it take 10 years to recover? 50? 100?
Population replacement isn't simply about changing the skin colour of the West; it's about downgrading the intelligence, aspirations, values and morality of the people. It's about rewriting the entire history of a civilisation for the benefit of a tiny, hostile clique.#ProWhite

Self-imagined hardman Hancock poses at a much-publicised Nightingale Hospital at the beginning of our State of Siege in the Spring (it was barely used then). Now, despite a supposedly deadly second wave, this costly, vaunted facility has been dismantled. Have we been had? https://t.co/5Vnv1Mdr0I
Quite. I thought, earlier in 2020, that to create new hospitals was a great achievement even bearing in mind their limited aims and equipment etc, but now I wonder whether those “Nightingale Hospitals” were just part of a propaganda “big lie”…
Just as the most enthusiastic supporters of mass media and social media censorship now are those who, in the past, would have fought for liberty: journalists, MPs, published authors etc.
The Jewish influence in society (and especially in the mass media and the legal profession) is a large part of all this.
Even Sky News just admitted that UK hospitals this winter have fewer patients than any of the last 5 winters. Covid has replaced flu (not least because the tests cannot differentiate) & staff shortages are being made worse by self-isolation rules, but there is no #CoronaCrisis.
Lest we forget: '[We thought] we couldn't get away with it in Europe' are strange and disturbing words for a public servant to use . https://t.co/2kaqGZsvID
The tsunami of debt and destitution coming our way as a result of lockdowns will ultimately reveal the futility of attempting to legislate against a seasonal respiratory virus.
10,000 truckers waiting to cross the Channel have now been tested for “the virus”. Only 24 have tested positive. About 1 in every 500. That should wake people up, but will not. The hysteria is ingrained now. Almost a full year of fear propaganda has had its effect. Having said that, I detect less of a sharp edge in the public mood.
When “the virus” was thought of as a kind of Black Death, in the Spring of 2020, there was a palpable feeling of real fear about. Now, that fear has evolved into more of a mere background effect, which is kept “revving” by the constant official and msm propaganda (which includes the facemask nonsense).
Radio 4
As is not infrequent, the early broadcasting was ghastly today. A platitudinous Prayer for the Day by some priestess-bishop, then a full half hour about the South Downs by a singer of whom I had never heard, one Frank Turner. How can someone who sings so out of tune be a professional singer?! Painful. I looked him up: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Turner.
I wonder whether he is in line for £10,000-£100,000 of public money…

Tucked away in the small print is the reality of the covid plague farce: of the 401 'covid deaths' in English hospitals on Christmas Day, all but 14 had known comorbidities (i.e. were going to die anyway). Lockdown suicides & cancer deaths will claim more.https://t.co/WeMrhHgw8R
The reality of the “panicdemic” is never shown on the msm. The reality is that, so far, while —worldwide— over a million people have died “with” the virus, that is after all one million out of eight thousand million people on Earth. About one death for every eight thousand people. Which puts the matter into perspective, or should.
True, the ratio is much higher in the UK, about one death out of every 1,400 inhabitants. The principle applies, though.
“The virus” has now been around (as far as we know) for nearly a year now.
The British public have been subjected to pressures rarely known in modern times: fear propaganda, toytown police state action, legally probably-invalid “laws”, “rules” and “advice” (all deliberately conflated). Crucially, the public has “had its mouth stuffed with gold” to buy off criticism of all this. Key medical staff such as doctors have been given pay rises of over 4%, well above inflation. Employees and some self-employed have been “furloughed” on what amounts to, for many, full net pay. Even the unemployed and working poor not furloughed have been given a small but useful Universal Credit boost of an extra £20 a week.
All of those measures, now extended into 2021, have softened the blows of the economic shutdown (which is what “lockdowns” and “tiers of restriction” are).
It would be naive to imagine that such a situation is sustainable indefinitely, even though with “national debt” being created at very low interest rates, it is, for the moment, sustainable.
It will be interesting to see how the UK economy does post-Brexit. If not well, there will open up a real opportunity for social nationalism, but that cannot happen while the population is being cushioned in terms of personal finance. To put it one way, only when the population starts to suffer, and seeks a way out, will such an opportunity be realizable. As Lenin once said, “worse will be better”.

The comically inept @ret_ward is unable to substantiate (surprise!) his comical claim that Prof Ferguson (a physicist) is a 'medical expert', so pumps out a gallon of squid-ink to cover his ignominious retreat. Go away, ward, you are boring as well as wrong. https://t.co/FQwuIGpvSc
It's behind a paywall @politicsaired. I have to say, as a journalist, that my trade doesn't have much future, especially in the form of independent newspapers, if people aren't prepared to pay a reasonable price for it. https://t.co/TJADKOnvKZ
The newspaper-journalistic trade (nb. not “profession”, not “vocation”) has no future because most of its present practitioners are semi-literate idiots, and most of the rest are dishonest and in the pocket of the Jewish-Zionist element.
1/4 Extraordinary how Prof Neil Ferguson is *still* taken seriously by semi-official media. Today he gets a respectful interview from Whipple in 'The Times'. Johnson's Pravda: https://t.co/xa8F7YXh2n
2/4 Ferguson tells'The Times' : 'Sage debated whether …[lockdown] would be effective here.“[China is] a communist one party state,we said.We couldn’t get away with it in Europe, we thought.”… “And then Italy did it.And we realised we could.”So they did https://t.co/xa8F7YXh2n
3/4 'These days, lockdown feels inevitable. It was, he reminds me, anything but. “If China had not done it,” he says, “the year would have been very different.”'https://t.co/xa8F7YXh2n
4/4 So basically Ferguson admits that Britain copied a tyranny (and accepted that tyranny was telling the truth). Article also sweetly gets on record fact that Ferguson is a physicist who didn't even do biology at O level. https://t.co/xa8F7YXh2n
Ferguson obviously “knows the right people”, the magic carpet of contemporary Britain (cf. Dido Harding etc, not to mention, in the past, Boris-idiot).
Why does @ChtyCommission allow Zionist groups to ‘police’ UK citizens using tactics synonymous with The Cheka police. How long before ‘volunteers’ claim leather coats on expenses? Make no mistake #Chekism is alive and well just watch Joe Glasman’s video. https://t.co/zZvuGe5HWg
I suggested some time ago that Trump stick it to various groups by using his unfettered right to pardon while he still can. So far he has started by pardoning a few cronies, as well as the murderous and stupid Blackwater mercenaries.
What Trump should do now is pardon all social-national prisoners doing time in Federal prisons. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of them. Some are doing life sentences or are even on Death Row. I imagine that they would be most grateful to Trump were he to pardon them. He may need a few friends soon. I suspect that, like “Condor” in “Three Days of the Condor” (a favourite film), Trump is “about to become a very lonely man“…
That tweet, above, pretty much sums up the total unreality of the self-describing “Left” in today’s UK. The whole country should, she thinks, be “locked down”. For a month? Six months? A year? In perpetuity? Until a vaccine or cure is around and covers all mutations etc?
The pseudo-socialist supporters of open-ended “lockdown” are also almost always in favour of open borders, greatly increased pay, benefits and services (including NHS services) etc. They imagine that some form of magical economics can square that circle. They are basically socio-politico-economic lunatics.
Such self-describing “Left” “socialists” (I myself never use “Right” and “Left”) are in a world of complete delusion, in which, inter alia, the usual rules of economics, commonsense and real life generally are suspended just for them.
In that crazy world of their own delusions, millions of non-Europeans (most entirely unskilled) can flood in, breed, be given housing, medical services, money etc. At the same time, all struggling English/British people will be paid more and/or get decent State benefits instead of the present inadequate ones.
In that world, everyone will have whatever education, NHS services, transport etc, they want or need, all for free or very cheaply. All sorts of other nice things will also be available freely.
The best trick of all? That all of the above can be provided despite the economy having been all but shut down for months or even years!
Well, obviously, such people are basically mad politically, economically etc. They are the same people who think that Corbyn and McDonnell had something to offer the UK electorate and that Corbyn was going to be Prime Minister.
The weird thing there is that they could see that the Jew-Zionist element in the msm and online was attacking Corbyn and Labour relentlessly, yet continued to support the Jew Zionists in their “holocaust” and (supposed) “antifascist” campaigns. The pseudo-socialists supported and still support the very tribe that killed off their beloved Corbyn’s chances!
Well, I am not a psychiatrist…
Most of those silly people are still desperately tweeting in favour of the UK being in the EU! Yes, they all, or almost all, support the finance-capitalist EU concept as well. No wonder that many of them have mental problems!
I wonder how long it will take until @BorisJohnson and the other Russian stooges an assets are rolled up and put away? Think he's got the Order of Lenin yet? https://t.co/t4PebGEPt2
So Blake died. An interesting character. A believer (in many things, serially). I blame not Blake for his treachery, to put it that way, but the naive British, who thought that all that was necessary to turn a half-Jew (half-Jew, half-Dutch), born in Rotterdam and brought up mainly in Egypt, into a “British gentleman” was a better suit, better shoes, a change of name (from Behar to true-blue “Blake”), and a position in the Foreign Office (and, covertly, SIS). Wrong…[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Blake].
Not that more obviously British people are necessarily more reliable, as witness the so-called “Magnificent Five” or “Velikolepnaya Pyaterka” headed by Kim Philby; Philby, though, was part-, I think quarter, Indian, his mother, Dora, being a so-called “chi-chi” (Anglo-Indian mixed-race).
Admittedly, that was not so in the case of Maclean, Burgess, Blunt, and Cairncross. In their cases, as also with Philby, we have to look at the influence, in the 1930s, of what has been called “the dummy intellectuality” of Marxism-Leninism.
Still, if “Blake” was to have been recruited at all, it should have been as agent, not officer.

Western Art and Architecture is the ultimate human expression of beauty that follows natural law. It controls and frees the Mind at the same time. It inspires and excites while at the same time instilling confidence.
I don't mind others not appreciating Western culture. I do mind when they try to replace it with ugly art, bad music, and Brutalist architecture. They can enjoy what they enjoy without attacking traditional forms.
A poor start to the day as—once again— Radio 4 TodayProgramme invites a Jewish “rabbi” on to exhale platitudes on its Thought for the Day slot. Once again, I say “why?“; Jews are “only” about a half or so of 1% of the UK population, but are on that Radio 4 slot about twice a week, so about 40% of the time. 80 times the numerical proportion based on percentage of the UK population.
Why is that slot so disproportionately Jewish? Also, if the disproportionate influence shows itself there, is that the case with the rest of the Today Programme and other Radio 4 output? I fear that it is.
Incidentally, if you want to see what “Zionist occupation” (as in ZOG”) looks like when writ large, you need only look at the tweet below, from occupied Germany…

All true, but sending letters to the MPs of the Westminster monkeyhouse will not really activate or frighten that corrupt pack.
2 @m1racles I also suspect that the existence and growth of an informal opposition to Covid policy among Tory, Labour and DUP MPs has been encouraged and amplified by the writing of such letters. https://t.co/BtgGiRlU1D
Well, maybe, but I blogged long ago, a year ago, that in a situation where an incompetent or unpleasant government is effectively a dictatorship, albeit notionally “elected”, opposition comes, and must come, from within the ruling party itself. That was even true of “real” dictatorships, as in the socialist world before 1989.
As to this government, opposition to these ruinous policies may be encouraged a little by letters received, but I think that at least a few MPs are at last waking up to the possible consequences down the line of a collapsing economy, high unemployment, very high youth unemployment, inflation etc.
40,000+ views so far. I tell Mike Graham here https://t.co/mPvsjvZtOx that government Covid policy is like ordering the army to glue all the leaves back on the trees, to prevent autumn. Amongst other things.
You have to keep at them, as the late Kingsley Amis used to say. What matters is *how many* such letters these vain ninnies receive. They can count (votes) even if they cannot think. Recruit others, pass on the model letter to colleagues, friends, neighbours, relatives. https://t.co/4huBMZwyXE
These https://t.co/AC5EJg8BvQ are real people, *your* friends, relatives, neighbours – perhaps the people who help to keep *you* employed by their spending or taxes. No man is an island. This disaster will affect us all.
Yes, lockdowns really do work – if you want to destroy the economy and society: Redundancies soared to record 370,000 in lead-up to second lockdown https://t.co/AC5EJg8BvQ
Exactly. For once I agree with faux-proletarian scribbler Dan Hodges, who has pointed out in his tweets that, whether “lockdowns” “work” (reduce infections) or not, they are simply not sustainable for very long, either economically or socially.
There is a choice in terms of judgment: is the Government (and some others in Europe) merely incompetent, or are the political leaders deliberately following a transnational conspiratorial agenda (the “Great Reset”)?
Also, the Government was discussing "vaccine stamps" for international travel. So how can anyone get a vaccine stamp if there's no central database of who's actually had the vaccine.
Labour people starting to panic about the polls. There is no point even thinking about them until we see the fall-out from Brexit, the fall-out from Covid and the fall out from the economic blow back from Covid.
Yes, but if need be Russia can put three million men in the field, of which 350,000 are regular Army personnel on active duty. That is around six or seven times the strength of the British Army; Russia also has available, on its western flank, at least 800 tanks: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1st_Guards_Tank_Army_(Russia).
I support the right of Estonia to full independence, but these NATO games on Russia’s border are poking “the Bear” for no good reason. Britain has no need to again make an enemy of Russia.
In 1939, Britain gave a “guarantee” to Poland, a guarantee which turned out to be worthless, a bad cheque. When Germany invaded from the west, and the Soviet Union invaded from the east, Britain and France nominally declared war on Germany but in fact did nothing.
Perhaps Hegel’s aphorism is correct and “we learn nothing from History except that we learn nothing from History“…
It occurs to me: “if Harry Cole of the Sun “newspaper” is so impressed by one main battle tank, what would he think if 800 appeared and advanced towards him?”…
Another Harry Cole tweet:
"We will be there to make sure we protect our fisherman because they have the right to be protected as they go about their lawful business”…
Again, I fully support British fishermen and the integrity of UK territorial waters, including our right under the Law of the Sea to an Exclusive Economic Zone, where applicable, but this is not an easy issue.
If Royal Navy vessels defend British fishermen and the fish in those waters from French fishermen, and if then the French Navy moves to defend the French fishing fleet, could there be undeclared war (akin to the 1970s Cod War off Iceland) in the Channel? As far as I know, that would be the first UK-France naval “engagement” in the Channel since the time of Napoleon.
There is another point: a high proportion (it may be 40%, it may be 60%) of fish taken in UK waters is then exported at once to EU states, mostly France and Spain. If France and Spain ban imports of British fish, or (via the EU) impose ruinously high tariffs, that will kill much of what is left of the UK fishing industry as surely as if the foreign fishermen simply took all the fish…
The only possible good thing is that fish in the UK will be cheaper, so at least the British consumer will benefit to that extent.
So the hit on public finances (ultimately, paid out of taxation by the British people…) might be as much as £50 BILLION! Even if it turns to be nearer to £100 million or £1 billion, rather than tens of billions, I fail to see why most should get anything or anything beyond a nominal sum. The vast majority were not deported or detained.
So now, even if all that happened was that someone got an unexpected official letter telling them something such as that they might at some point be subject to deportation, they are going to get between £10,000 and £100,000!
I should imagine that many real British people who have been cheated in this society would welcome similar payouts to themselves!
Take a look at anti-British, anti-European Indian, Ash Sarkar, in that video. Forget her cod-“Marxism”. She openly says it: “White population of the UK down by 600,000, while the non-white population is up by 1.2 Million….face it lads— we’re winning.” As I say, forget the post-“Marxism”. It’s pure “race hate”…race hate by non-whites and against the white people who have created the vast bulk of what is worthwhile in our contemporary world, indeed the modern world since about 1400 AD.
If anyone wants to know why The Guardian is on its last legs, look no further than the sort of silly, entitled, lazy pseudo-feminist idiot-journalism personified by Zoe Williams.
It only takes one candle or a Swan Vesta to pierce the darkness. That is why both the Jews and the “antifa” idiots hate any free speech. That is why (((they))) put out huge effort from 2014 to late 2016 to get me disbarred (even though I had ceased Bar practice years before, in 2008). That is why (((they))) have made repeated false accusations and complaints against me to police, Twitter etc (they succeeded with Twitter: I was expelled in 2018).
(((They)) are often rather more stupid than they think they are. It was only because “they” conspired to have me disbarred that I started this blog, which becomes ever-more popular. I only started the almost-daily blogging after “they” had me expelled from Twitter in 2018.
The same is true of Alison Chabloz. It was only after “they” caused her to lose her job as a singer that she started to realize what a menace they constitute, and so to speak up more loudly; and it was only after “they” started to persecute her even more that she posted her amusing satirical songs online. Indeed, her 2017-2018 prosecution (initially a private prosecution by the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”), and conviction, has only spread her celebrity around the world. Even some of the more perceptive Jews have seen that, and regret (for that reason) that Alison Chabloz was ever prosecuted. They have tweeted about it.
We should cancel Christmas and anything wonderful. We should hide in our basement closets in terror. We should go broke and fully depend on our gov to give us permission to breathe.
Sadly, though, Peter Hitchens is the sort of person who wants to have “a civilized discussion” with the enemies of Europe’s future, with Krishnan anti-Brit, with Owen Jones, with Ash Sarkar etc, maybe with the “antifa” idiots, and with the Islamists and Zionists too, who knows?
My view? There is no point in pretending that we are in an Oxford Union debate. These matters are, not far down the line, matters of life and death. Britain, and all Europe, face existential threats. The response must be adequate and more than adequate.
Nearly 85,000 people have now watched my conversation of yesterday with @Iromg Mike Graham on @TalkRadio Why do people continue to believe that shutdowns save lives? there is no evidence for this at all. Rather the contrary.
I'm inclined to agree @sebross4 . But tens of thousands are still better than nothing. The fact that our state has not yet resorted to some of the oppressive measures in other nations her places *may* be caused by the existence of a small but determined opposition. https://t.co/HPqUN08DrX
Once you have thrown over the rule of law and embraced violence, @nordic_mike, you have licensed all others to do the same. As the nastiest people are generally the toughest, this is almost always a mistake. I wonder if you have ever seen real brute force. https://t.co/kjw67AqMnW
Life is better without “brute force”, speaking generally. However, there are times when socio-political or socio-economic pressure builds, without release. Then an explosion happens.
