Saturday quiz

Well, another victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He scored 5/10, but I trumped that with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 5, 9, and 10, and could not remember the answer to question 2.

Of course, the Brighton bombing was a terrible action. Having said that, merely one of thousands of British or American bombing raids over Germany in the 1941-1945 period would have caused a hundred or a thousand times the amount of hurt, death, and damage. The same would be true of more recent bombings, in Iraq etc.

Trump situation

Readers of this blog will be aware that I am no admirer of Trump, who when President was basically a squawking parrot guarded by a troop of Jews.

Likewise, I despise the fact that, when in his last weeks in office, Trump sat back and did nothing about the fact that thousands of social-national Americans are in Federal prisons. They could all have been pardoned by Trump. They were just left to rot.

As to Trump’s present situation, and speaking, of course, hypothetically, were I in his position I would rally my supporters with a call to arms. Then follow through. I doubt whether Trump will do anything like that, though. He is all hot air.

It is clear that the American political system is at least as broken as that of the UK, and that sinister forces have taken over the academic/educational sector, as well as the msm. Why play by the rules any more? Face reality. There is a need for a second American revolution, on several levels.

So speaketh Margaret Jay, only herself in the House of Lords because of her connections, and because her father was once Prime Minister. I suppose most people who remember her do so because of the way in which she embarrassed the country by having an affair with a Jew journalist while her nepotistically-appointed husband, Peter Jay, was H.M. Ambassador to Washington c.1979. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_Jay,_Baroness_Jay_of_Paddington#Personal_life.

As matters stand, there is no “Parliamentary road”.

Moneygrubbing hypocrites deserve a good kicking.

Technically, Concorde was a great achievement, but I always had a problem with it ideologically: the mass of taxpayers taxed so that a tiny number of very wealthy persons could cross the Atlantic in a few hours. Concorde was subsidized twice over— in its research and development costs, and in its operational costs (losses). The mass of the British people could not dream of ever availing themselves of Concorde’s luxury —if cramped— travel.

I notice, though, that the number of utter mugs sending “Jack Monroe” money via Patreon has now again started to decline, having plateaued for a couple of months.

Last year, after Jewish TV cook Nigella Lawson commended the so-called “Bootstrap Cook”, the Patreon mug-donors numbered nearly 900 (each sending the “grifter”/fraudster between £3.50 and £44 a month, incredibly). That declined to below 500 from August-September 2022, but seemed stuck at around 480. It has now declined further to 460, as of today’s date. That’s still between £1,610 and £20,240 per month, though.

When the police act only at the behest of one lobby, the rule of law decays and is broken down. I have experienced that myself: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2022/01/15/diary-blog-15-january-2022-including-an-outline-of-the-failure-of-the-latest-jew-zionist-attempt-to-prosecute-me/.

BBC Question Time, and Twitter

The tweets below show how far removed from both ordinary reality and political reality are both Question Time and Twitter:

A tendentious, probably brainless (and also —probably— atheistic) Church of England clergyman, and a plainly uneducated and also unintelligent fellow (or possibly someone with a mental health problem), both of whom favour migration-invasion by backward hordes into what is left of our country.

Truly, both stupidity and (in the lay sense) treason come in a variety of guises.

Beyond that, it is remarkable how little Question Time and Twitter reflect the popular mood. In fact, you could say that the popular mood in the UK is usually the precise opposite to whatever the Question Time audience and the main UK Twitter mob are saying.

My own approach would be rather different, certainly harsher, certainly more effective in destroying the migration-invasion, “but that’s just me“…

Emily Thornberry (aka Lady Nugee) and her half-Jew husband, however, have about 7 or 8 buy-to-let and other properties. It might be said that they are profiting from the squeeze on housing.

Emily Thornberry never seems to wonder what the effect on housing availability might be of importing many millions of immigrants (mainly non-white, at that) over several decades, immigrants who have been breeding prolifically.

Yes, I am sure that Labour will, indeed, “clear the backlog” of migrant-invaders of all sorts. How? By approving almost all applications, and prioritizing the invaders above British people for housing (and all other services), then by setting up some kind of quick rubberstamp process in France, and even in the countries of origin of the invaders. That way, Britain will actually get swamped even more, but the bad public relations of the invading cross-Channel boats shown on TV and social media will be mostly avoided.

Ah, yes, those great idealists and humanitarians, Meghan Mulatta and “the Harry formerly known as Prince”…

Finnish politics could dramatically shift to the far-Right on Sunday as an anti-immigration party aims to replace Sanna Marin’s Social Democrats Party.

The ‘rock star’ prime minister, who took office in 2019 as the world’s youngest PM at 34, is Finland’s most popular leader this century, polls show.

However, latest figures put the mother-of-one’s centre-Left SDP in third place behind the anti-immigration and nationalist Finns Party and the centre-Right National Coalition Party, which held on to a thin lead.

Diary Blog, 28 March 2023, including a few thoughts about the SNP and Scotland

Afternoon music

On this day a year ago

Scotland

All that and Paki-stani/Punjabi as well. I suspect that the Humza Yousaf election will wake up quite a few Scottish voters to the pointlessness of faux-“Independence” and fake “Scottish nationalism”.

After all, what does “Independence” mean when Scotland would effectively still belong to NATO (and still have submarine and air bases likely to be targeted in any war), when it would apply to rejoin the EU, when it would be still tied-in to the international banking system, and to the UN matrix (eg WHO)? Also, when Scotland would not only continue to be invaded (by migrant-invaders) but also when that would probably only be intensified under an avowedly anti-white, and non-Scot, First Minister (or, by then, “Prime Minister”?) of Scotland?

I see that the latest opinion polls, from a week or so ago, show that support for “Independence”, once not far short of 50%, dropped to 38% after Sturgeon’s resignation. I wonder what the figure will be soon, now that the SNP has a non-white leader, and one who is basically anti-white, and so anti-Scottish (in any real sense)?

As blogged in the past, the SNP, founded in 1934, only had its first MP elected to Westminster in 1967. The SNP contingent in the Commons then varied between 2 and 11 until 2015 (out of Scottish seats numbering between 59 and 72).

Only in 2015 did the First Past The Post tipping-point result in the SNP getting 56 (out of 59) seats, a figure that fell to 35 in 2017 but recovered to 48 in 2019. Next time (2023/2024)?

In the Scottish Parliament, the SNP cadre consists of 64 out of 129 seats, but in local councils in Scotland only 453 out of 1,226 seats.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_National_Party#Electoral_performance

I think that the SNP is going to take a pretty big hit from the Humza Yousaf election, though how much is hard to say.

The SNP has certainly had problems with its leaders: Alex Salmond, who was very “lucky in his jury” when acquitted of sexual assault and attempted rape; then Sturgeon and all the fraud and cronyism allegations; now this…

What may save the SNP from an even bigger hit than would otherwise be the case is the sheer uselessness of both the Conservative Party government and the Labour Party official opposition at Westminster.

Note also, in those tweets above, that neither of the two “controlled opposition” talking heads dared to mention that Humza Yousaf is not, in any real sense, “Scottish” to start with…

Seems that even the Guardian agrees with me, in essence, about the likely slow decline of the SNP. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/mar/27/snp-humza-yousaf-leader-scotland-politics.

One other interesting point to note is that SNP membership is only 72,000, and fewer than 50,000 bothered to vote for a new leader.

As to the new leader, I see that Humza Yousaf has only had one non-political job, a brief stint in a call centre: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humza_Yousaf.

I do not have enough information to assess whether this is the beginning of the end for the Israeli state, but it may be. States usually end as a result of internal dissent and/or decadence. One of the “lessons of history”.

I am not so much interested in Israel as a state, more in its role as a hub for worldwide Jewish power-grabs, propaganda, fraud, and general leeching. As a state, Israel is no worse than any of the Arab or other Muslim states in the Middle East.

“Jack Monroe”

“Jack Monroe”, aka “Bootstrap Cook”, is not so much a “liar” as someone to whom truth and falsehood do not really exist, i.e. someone to whom both lies and statements of truth are interchangeable, and their use dictated solely by their immediate utility to her and various aspects of her fake “poverty” narrative.

As blogged before, “Jack Monroe”, whose sole experience of fires (apart from starting them in her own kitchen while drunk or drugged) was as someone who, for a short while, answered the telephone at the fire brigade in Essex. “Grenfell Tower” was, for her, just another attempt to ride on whatever was currently in the news, for her own financial benefit.

“Jack Monroe” does that, or has done that, in various ways: “LGBTQXYZ”, “single mother”, “struggling mother”, “poor person made good”, “cancer patient”, “ME patient”, “fibromyalgia patient” (etc), “recovering but sober alcoholic”, “victim” generally (especially of “trolls”, meaning those who put forward evidence of her fraudulent claims and behaviours).

I wonder how many “mugs” actually believed the “Jack Monroe” Grenfell Tower fantasy? The real fire happened in West London, 60+ miles from where (non-driver) “Jack Monroe” lives (in the Southend, Essex area). How would a policeman guarding the fire scene even know (or care) who “Jack Monroe” is (I suppose that she thinks, or seems to want to believe, that she is a “celebrity” known to the nation)? Why would a policeman “wave her through” the security cordon? It’s ludicrous, as was or is her claim to have had the plans of the building (how? why?).

What, in any case, could a drunken or drugged young woman without real experience, and who had no reason or locus standi to even be there, be able to contribute? Nothing.

Not only lies, but very obvious lies.

That being so, why did actual “celebrities” of sorts, such as the Jewish TV cook, Nigella Lawson, and the Jewish restaurant critic, Jay Rayner, promote “Jack Monroe” for years after that? In fact until early this year. Also, why did various charities and msm outlets keep promoting “Jack Monroe” until very recently? There’s a kind of semi-conspiratorial “Jimmy Savile” feel about it all.

Having said that, Loach and his like still, even now, talk about the element that got rid of Corbyn as “the Right“, “the Establishment“, “the mass media“,and even “the ruling class“, while not once talking about the Jews, or Zionists, or even the baleful influence of the Israeli state, as seen so clearly in the Shai Masot case, except insofar as he mentions that many Jews who were pro-Corbyn have actually been expelled by Starmer.

There it is— White Genocide. Admittedly, not in the sense of non-whites directly killing white European people in large numbers (except in South Africa), but in a far more cunning way, or ways. Promotion of cannabis abuse, promotion of LGBTQXYZ, promotion of extreme feminism (most of the writers favouring which are— wait for it— Jewish women), promotion of mass immigration and migration-invasion into Europe. 90% or more of all of that is led by, and/or funded by, Jews and/or Jewish interests.

So many people want everything to be black and white; black or white.

What it says to me (also) is that there is a baleful influence promoting that kind of non-art (not necessarily that particular “artist”), or what was once called “Addled Art“— https://www.amazon.co.uk/Addled-Art-Lionel-Lindsay/dp/B0007J3B7S; http://melbourneblogger.blogspot.com/2009/06/lindsay-etching-l-hyde-park-1913-r.html; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lionel_Lindsay.

Who funded and promoted (and then made millions via) the “artists” Tracey Emin [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracey_Emin] and Damien Hirst [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damien_Hirst] etc? Mainly wealthy Jews, such as Charles Saatchi: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Saatchi and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Freedman.

Saatchi is also known for his art collection and for owning Saatchi Gallery, and in particular for his sponsorship of the Young British Artists (YBAs), including Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin. In 2013 he received a police caution for assaulting his wife, Nigella Lawson.” [Wikipedia]

Saatchi arrived at Gambler in a green Bentley and, according to Freedman, was immediately impressed by (and then bought) Hirst’s first major “animal” installation, A Thousand Years, consisting of a large glass case containing maggots and flies feeding off a rotting cow’s head.[1] (The installation was later a notable feature of the Sensation exhibition.) At this early stage, Freedman was financing the production of Hirst’s vitrines, and has commented that not many people attended these early shows, including Freeze.

In 1994, Freedman toured the US with Tracey Emin, driving in a Cadillac from San Francisco to New York.” [Wikipedia].

Freedman said one of the [Tracey Emin] show’s themes was:the artist as a subject, and (to) explore the relationship between the art on the wall and its creator, to make the whole thing more humanistic. And in there somewhere there is the beginnings of a thesis on the relationship and similarities between madness and modernism, for example, defiance of authority, nihilism, examples of extreme relativism, strange transformations of the self, irrationality, and things like that.” [Wikipedia]

A 1930s German National Socialist would recognize very readily the all-too-typical themes of decay, decadence, perversion of the natural order etc.

[Saatchi Gallery]

Incidentally, “Emin was born in Croydon, a district of south London, to an English mother of Romanichal descent[18] and a Turkish Cypriot father.” [Wikipedia]. She is non-European, despite Wikipedia weaselling about her mother, who was apparently not English but a “Romanichal” (gypsy).

Tracey Emin is now herself “worth” millions; Damien Hirst, hundreds of millions.

Compare that to the many great and genuine artists who lived and died penniless.

Scotland, despite its global cultural reach, is a small nation, most of the people of which oppose fake “Independence”.

I should hope —and I certainly think— that the SNP reached its high-water mark a few years ago, and will now gradually decline, but that will not happen until the voters are given a suitable alternative.

Ireland is every bit as crazy as the UK now. A country of about 7M now faces migration-invasion on an unprecedented scale. Even as it stands, foreign-born nationals in Ireland comprise somewhere close to 15% of the population. If you add in births to foreign elements, make that ~20%.

The trajectory is, apparently, downward and towards extinction: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labour_Party_(Ireland)#Recent_history. The popular vote for Labour fell from nearly 141,000 in 2016 to 96,000 in 2020.

Quite. One of those who persistently tweets the rubbish about how “freedom of expression does not mean freedom from consequences” is the part-Jew academic (incredibly, a professor of laws in East Anglia), Paul Bernal.

According to that definition, people had “free speech” in Mao’s China, Stalin’s Russia, even Pol Pot’s Cambodia.

Idiot.

A Jewish woman lawyer puts Bernal right on another question. Seems that Bernal always manages to get it wrong. He is in the wrong job.

That “utterly ignorant man” has nearly 59,000 Twitter “followers”. A good example of the sheer silliness of Twitter.

Bernal’s “professorship” does not say much that is complimentary about the University of East Anglia’s law school.

Incidentally, Bernal is descended from the well-known scientist, J.D. Bernal, a part-Jew and Communist: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J._D._Bernal, and from Martin Bernal, a “controversial” “anti-racist” academic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Bernal; https://www.theguardian.com/education/2013/jun/21/martin-bernal.

Presumably part of the mass media barrage of support for the Kiev regime.

Hard to know what to make of Bear Grylls. I have only seen one episode of one TV show he did. I disliked it, and his attitude. Very full of himself. Also, he killed a small and harmless animal entirely unnecessarily.

As I say, I do not have a developed view about him. One hears about him having been selected for the TA SAS thirty years or so ago (at age 20, younger than f/t SAS personnel), though that was the (then) part-time TA version (now called The Reserves), and he was in it for only 2 years actively (3 officially).

Obviously more than a bit of a “tough guy”, looking at his Wikipedia entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bear_Grylls, though I (perhaps unfairly) tend to think a little sceptically when I see someone with dozens of supposed qualifications in their skill-set. cf. Rory Stewart: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/05/03/will-rory-stewart-mp-be-prime-minister/.

Plainly not a “fake”, but whether (as with Rory Stewart) the sum of the parts seems to add up to more than the whole, hard to judge. The TV image may or may not fully reflect reality.

As far as I can judge “survival experts” (perhaps not greatly), I think that I prefer Ray Mears [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Mears], despite disagreeing with some of his views about the Second World War etc.

All that, and also a taxi driver called Lulita. Some people really are born under a lucky star!

Yes. I recall talking about similar issues in 1976 with a couple with whom I was then friendly, a (supposedly ex-) getaway driver-turned-limousine service-owner, and his wife, both in their thirties (I was 19 at the time). The discussion was about the relative merits of the Western way of life as compared with the Soviet socialist system.

That fellow’s comment has stayed with me: “what matters to me is not the detail about how it works but what way of life comes out the other end.” Like many —more-or-less— “villains”, he was basically quite “Thatcherite” in his views (though this was three years before Margaret Thatcher actually became Prime Minister).

Indeed. In the late 1970s, the inefficiencies of the subsidized industries, and the (neo-Luddite) power of the trade unions, were the stuff of legend, but the “Thatcher Revolution” went far too far in various ways. All the same, people realized that some change was needed.

I have blogged previously about how the ~33-year cycle works. In 1989, old-style socialism died, but that did not happen overnight. In the UK, the change had been in preparation for many years, starting notionally with the Thatcher governments.

Telecoms policy illustrates the point. The State-owned British Telecom was privatized in 1984: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BT_Group. Even in the mid-1980s, it could take a long time for the average customer/consumer to be supplied with a telephone. It sounds ludicrous now, of course.

I knew someone from my schooldays who owned a couple of houses in South London, rented out by the room. He wanted the tenants to have a coin-operated telephone, and arranged with British Telecom to have one installed. After several months, he was getting angry that the telephone had not been installed. He was fobbed off with various reasons (excuses) until, finally so exasperated at the lack of action, about a year after he had asked for the installation, he called British Telecom to say that he was cancelling the order, only to be informed that the telephone was going to be installed a couple of days later. Which it was. Still, a whole year just to get a telephone!

That kind of rationing did not affect people equally. I remember being told, in the late 1980s, at dinner in Lincoln’s Inn, and by (now-deceased) Lord Justice Parker [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Parker_(judge)], that when he was first appointed a judge in, I think, 1969, that appointment had co-incided with his moving to a country house in a rather out-of-the-way part of Essex. There was no telephone.

Parker had then contacted the manager of the (then) GPO for the area to request installation of a telephone. He was told that it might take several months, if not longer. He then said that he needed a telephone for his work. The telephone manager had asked what work. “I have just been appointed a judge“. The manager then apologized, and said that a telephone would be installed that week. It was.

I imagine that the later Lord Justice of Appeal put his case quite forcefully. I certainly found him a rather unpleasant person, that one time that I spoke with him.

It sounds antediluvian now, when anyone can buy a basic mobile telephone for a small amount of money, and get it from a supermarket or other outlet in a matter of minutes.

The point is that the heavily-subsidized nationalized industries of 1945-1980s had become sluggish and a drag on economic efficiency. However, the privatization trend went too far in the late 1980s and 1990s. Now, the taxpayers fork out huge sums to notionally private enterprises, from railways and offshoots of the DWP and NHS, to the farming industry and others. We are getting neither proper service nor value for money.

The same is true of the “tax credits” payments put in place by Blair and Brown, and also the current “Universal Credit” low pay boondoggle. It subsidizes poor-paying employers out of public funds. That cannot be right.

Currently 395 hotels in the UK are understood to be being used to accommodate more than 51,000 people at a reported cost of £6.8million a day – but the number is constantly increasing as the Government battles to start moving some asylum seekers to Rwanda while their applications to stay in the UK are processed.

The whole thing, the “trans nonsense”, has mushroomed from being a situation, or problem, affecting a tiny handful of people, to now being an absurd fad supposedly affecting millions and, also, a way in which the transnational conspiracy can close down free speech in a specific area and generally.

It has become a building block of the “New World Order” [NWO], as can be seen by the way in which trans nonsense propaganda has been used against, inter alia, Russia and Putin.

As for Eddie Izzard, another very negative factor in British society.

All very good, but most people in the UK have nowhere in which to grow their own food, not even a small garden. A half-acre garden is a relative rarity. Still, a worthwhile enquiry.

That “Boris” Johnson could become an MP was ridiculous, that he could become a Cabinet minister was almost unbelievable, and that he could become Prime Minister was a disgrace. The whole present Parliamentary system is a bad joke.

As for Nadine Dorries, what can one say? A stupid “ho” with a brain the size of a pea, but not so stupid that she could not tear the **** out of her Parliamentary expenses; she even gave her daughters non-jobs using her expenses: £60,000 a year for one of them alone.

The more I look at the way the “West” is going, that is in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, UK etc, the more it seems to me that, somewhere not far down the line, a kind of civil war, a kind of culture war, a kind of race war, a kind of (new-style) class war, all mixed together, is almost inevitable.

Stray thoughts

If one has had a dream, perhaps a rather bad dream, and then wakes up still thinking about it or affected by it, that affect or, indeed, effect, dissipates quickly. One realizes that —quite apart from having been merely a dream— it is now finished and gone; in the past.

Now, what about things that have happened to us in the course of life? However important they may have been to us, however unpleasant perhaps, that those events were, they too lie in the past now. They have no more reality, no more present reality, than those bad dreams, except in two respects: firstly, that those “real world” events actually happened (objectively) and, secondly, they may still play on our minds, or are at least remembered (i.e. had and/or have also subjective reality).

It is the remembrance of the “real world” events that affects us, but both dreams and “real world” events have the obvious equivalence that, as we look back on them, they are in the past. We feel obliged to honour the “real world” events by recalling them. However, that sense of obligation might be said to lie “not in our stars but in ourselves“.

The sense of remembrance-connection to real world events is a silver thread which binds us to them via the laws of Karma, yet it is postulated that those laws operate whether we recall anything (in one life or a series of lives), or not.

In terms of our lives as lived on any particular day, events of the past, whether trivial, important at the time, or even shocking, are as insubstantial as those bad dreams. “We are such stuff as dreams are made on“, if you like.

The only reason why the UK and France are not living under complete Jewish/Zionist tyranny is because the actual numbers of Jews and part-Jews, in proportion to the non-Jews, is small— in the UK, less than half of one percent.

The people, without a leader, without a vanguard party, are disorganized and, therefore, helpless.

In the UK, there is no such vanguard party, not even a germinal one.

We tend to think, at least many people tend to think, that civilization and culture are best-described as a smooth upward spiral or curve, whereas a staggered spiral is more accurate: a period of growth and improvement often followed by a decline, or even a catastrophic fall, before positive evolution can continue.

Incredible. See my blog from yesterday for more.

A reference to the Grenfell Tower fire some years ago, after which “Jack Monroe” wrote a pack of lies saying that she went to the scene (60 miles from her home in Essex; she does not drive, either, which in view of her alleged and partly-admitted booze/drug consumption is just as well), and was “waved through” the security cordon by police (who must have known what a huge “celebrity” she was, with her reconstituted tinned pasta —mixed with sardines and curry powder— “food”…), after which she used the plans of the building (how? from where?) to somehow “organize” the scene.

Does any thinking person really believe that any of that was true?

“Jack Monroe” keywords: “fraud”, “conwoman”, “grifter”, “fake”. Among others.

What astounds me, and others, is firstly the sheer relentless and wicked gall of “Jack Monroe”, but then also, maybe more, the wilful gullibility of quite many people who —perhaps desperately— want to believe in something or someone, anything, anyone.

482 utter mugs are still (as of today) sending money to “Jack Monroe” via Patreon, several thousand pounds in total every month.

See my blog from yesterday about that.

I have to admit that, until yesterday, I had never heard of the Greenbelt Festival. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenbelt_Festival. It has, apparently, been happening annually since 1974.

The Wikipedia entry is rather out of date. It speaks of Anita Roddick [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anita_Roddick], the superficially principled “entrepreneuse” (serving “both God and Mammon“?) who died about 16 years ago, in 2007, as if still alive.

More or less true, but to complain about unfairness like that sits badly with me. There is something pathetic about it. Take charge, take power, and order the world the right way…

They never built a civilization, or any culture worthy of the name, and they are unable to maintain the culture and civilization white Europeans have built or, in most cases, even to live in it without being a danger, nuisance or, at the very least, a backward drag.

Black women become fat because white women (and men) are ‘racist’“…

Because “Dr.” Louise Raw has little else in her life except trying to “deplatform” those with social-national (or even conservative-national) views. In socio-political terms, a near-loony.

Maybe, if the USA is stupid enough to launch or provoke a war with Russia, that will be the way to rebuild North America, eliminating unwanted elements at the same time.
