Saturday quiz

Well, only 4/10 this week, though that was still enough to beat political journalist John Rentoul, who scored a mere 2/10. I answered questions 2, 6, 7, and 8 correctly, no. 7 being at best an educated guess. In the back of my mind I also knew the answers to questions 4 and 9, but could not exactly recall the names.

A nation begins to die the moment it forgets who its enemies are, because identity is shaped not only by what we are, but by what we are willing to reject.

Carl Schmitt, the brilliant German jurist and political theorist, warned that all politics begins with distinction—the drawing of a line between friend and enemy, between those with whom we share fate and those who threaten our survival. To erase that line is not an act of progress or enlightenment, but an act of surrender, the first step in the dissolution of any real order.

Britain, 2025

https://www.mylondon.news/news/north-london-news/light-fingered-north-london-secretary-31596352

A light-fingered secretary who funnelled away £53,000 while working for a top legal firm has avoided jail after the judge took pity on her abusive upbringing. Aminata Pungi, 36, a serial shoplifter who told a probation officer she could not remember her previous convictions for theft, received an 18-month suspended sentence at Inner London Crown Court on Thursday (May 8).

Facing a three-year starting point, due to her previous convictions and the cross-border nature of the fraud, defence counsel Sahara Fergus-Simms did enough to convince Mr Recorder Campbell that her client should avoid jail, telling the judge about Ms Pungi’s 18-week pregnancy and her difficult upbringing after fleeing war in her native Democratic Republic of Congo.

Ms Fergus-Simms told the court Ms Pungi was fostered by family in the UK, but allegedly suffered abuse at the hands of her aunt and her partner, who fled the UK before he could face a trial. Describing one particularly disturbing incident, Ms Fergus-Simms said Ms Pungi’s aunt attended her school ‘wielding a knife’ while Ms Pungi was told to hide in a cupboard by her PE teacher.

Ms Fergus-Simms also claimed Ms Pungi’s shoplifting started as a way to feed herself without support from her family, but this became ‘a habit that stuck’.

Sparing her prison, Recorder Campbell said: “The greatest punishment you have is you are unable to pursue your dream career in the law.”

Ms Pungi was sentenced to 18 months in prison, suspended for 18 months, with no compensation order. Prosecutors also declined to pursue the money through the Proceeds of Crime Act, as there was no realistic prospect of the cash being recovered.”

[My London]

My first thought is that the defendant really ought to go out and buy a lottery ticket…

My second thought is that Britain is now largely a dustbin full of trash.

I do have a third point. How could the sentencing judge have imagined that the defendant could have had a career in law, had she not now been convicted (again) ? She had a number of previous convictions, for one thing.

Oh dear…

In fact, Goodwin is partly right, but only partly. The answer to his posed question is “No!” or, at best, “50-50“.

The problem is that, while Goodwin notes the dangers to free speech emanating from “woke” or “politically-correct” directions, and also from Muslim/Islamist directions, he (as usual) omits to mention the direction from which the main danger to free speech in the UK comes— Jewish Zionism.

GB News itself is well and truly (((infiltrated))).

A few of my experiences, over more than a decade, of the troublemaking of that evil pack:

There is no “exodus”. Au contraire.

Migration-invasion. Migration-occupation.

Going beyond what Goodwin says there, if there were a real unblinking review of the social effects (crime, single mothers, abandoned children, “social parasitism” etc) of having a non-white or mixed-race population (not just recent migrants/invaders) in the UK, the British people would be shocked, not least because it would totally contradict the lying propaganda pumped out in schools, newspapers, radio, TV, and by System drones there and in Parliament etc.

I read his book, Cry Havoc. Pretty poor.

I believe that he was from a wealthy family based in the New Forest. I read in his book that, either after his return to the UK or just before, his Jewish wife managed to sell his, I think inherited, country house for a very high sum (if memory serves, about £9M), which was a financial lifesaver for him.

Mann made millions from his hazardous activities, and certainly showed grit, especially during his imprisonment in the unpleasant state of Equatorial Guinea. In the end, though, you go out from this world with nothing material, just as you entered it. A fact that Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson, the “Russian” and “Ukrainian” Jew oligarchs, and other mega-wealthy, might like to ponder upon.

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/may/09/sadiq-khan-to-announce-plans-to-build-houses-on-london-green-belt

Sadiq Khan is announcing plans to build on parts of London’s green belt, in a dramatic shift in housing policy aimed at tackling “the most profound housing crisis in the capital’s history”.

In a major speech on Friday, the mayor of London is expected to say the scale of the challenge, which could need about 1m new homes built in the next decade, requires a break from longstanding taboos.

It marks the first time city hall will support the strategic release of low-quality or inaccessible green belt land near transport links in order to provide hundreds of thousands of new affordable homes.”

[Guardian]

Very sad. Apart from that, when they talk about “low-quality or inaccessible land“, what “low-quality” means in this context is simply land on the edge of built-up areas, which may not always be very scenic (but could be, with political will to improve it). “Inaccessible land” is still better than the same land being built on, and its very inaccessibility provides a haven and sanctuary for animals, birds, insects etc.

This is what happens when a country is invaded by a million migrant-invaders per year (legal or illegal)— pressure on land, transport, public services etc increases, housing becomes unaffordable, and life becomes stressed and unpleasant. Look around. The evidence is all around you.

Disgusting pair. I hope that the sentencing judge passes a suitably condign sentence. I hope that I do not read “Sycamore Gap vandals escape prison“. This was a horrible and destructive crime, an act of evil; there was also huge economic damage to the surrounding region (I have seen figures estimating damage of up to £1M).

Just a tree? So tie them to a tree for a few weeks, or months (in winter).

I don’t care whether migrant-invaders are legal or illegal, or whether or not they break UK laws while battening upon us. I just want them all gone.

Yet another opinion poll placing Reform UK in government, potentially. According to Electoral Calculus, a Commons with 314 Reform UK MPs, 168 Labour MPs, 63 LibDems, 39 Cons, 36 SNP (etc). Reform 12 short of an absolute majority, but on the cusp of a working one.

https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html

[“Let’s put emotions aside for a moment. The United States .. like any sovereign nation .. has every right to reclaim its independence, pursue its national interest, and break free from parasitic entanglements that have long drained its dignity and resources. What we are witnessing today may be the first real attempt in decades by parts of the American establishment to free themselves from the stranglehold of the Zionist lobby. But here’s the irony: the very idea that America might make decisions based on its own interests has sent Israeli officials into a frenzy. Why? Because for decades, they’ve treated the U.S. not as an ally, but as a tool .. a weaponized servant to carry out their ambitions, silence their critics, and whitewash their crimes. And now, as the leash begins to loosen, their panic grows louder. Let’s be clear: This isn’t a battle between good and evil. It’s a clash between Racial superiority and religious superiority One seeking global domination through lies, manipulation, and media .. driven illusions , Blackmailing , assassination The other aiming to reassert global control through , brute force, and economic imperialism We now stand at a crossroads for America: Either the United States, through Trump, succeeds in imposing a model of sovereign imperialism based on American supremacy… Or Israel unleashes its old playbook .. media manipulation, financial pressure, political chaos .. to manufacture another storm, just as it did when JFK tried to challenge their influence and paid for it with his life.“]

It’s a mad mad mad mad world…

Americans call such behaviour a “chimp-out”, I believe.

Interesting. Plaid is of course not truly “national” or “nationalist”, but more akin to the SNP in Scotland. Its basic premise, that Wales should be an independent state, is of course ludicrous, especially but not solely from the economic point of view.

Having said that, I can see why Welsh voters in Wales are going for Plaid (the apparent tautology is in fact not so, because a great number of voters in Wales are not Welsh, being either non-European —non-white— or English, mostly the latter; there are a few other small groups as well).

I think that Plaid is making hay because the main System parties, Lab and Con, are perceived as both hopeless and not “local” (to Wales). That was not always so (in relation to Labour) but I think it probably is so now.

As for Reform’s upsurge in Wales, it follows the rise in support for Reform in England and even in Scotland.

In Scotland, Reform is rising up, but another consequence of the drastic fall in support for both Con and Lab is that the SNP may survive, however unmeritedly, and may be able to increase its Westminster representation from its present 9 MPs (out of 57 Scottish seats) to something like 30; not quite the 56 out of 59 it had in 2015, nor even the 48 out of 59 it had in 2019, but still respectable, and a plurality of the 57 Scottish seats that now exist.

Put another way, people across the UK are binning Con and Lab, and I do not see that changing.

The YouGov poll is about the Senedd (Welsh Assembly) elections, not Westminster voting intentions, but must have relevance to the next general election.

Running that through Electoral Calculus (notionally putting LibDems at 15% and Greens at 10%): Reform 375 MPs; Labour 121; LibDems 62; SNP 38; Cons 25. A Reform government with a very large majority of 49 (working majority of about 59).

I keep seeing Labourite and Con Twitter-twits’ tweets saying “still 4 years to go“, as if the main System parties will somehow regain public trust before 2029. Are they serious?!

Diary Blog, 8 May 2025

A few thoughts out of season

I read a couple of pieces in the online-only Independent newspaper and its connected Indy100 site. Semi-literate, semi-educated. Examples? In the Independent, in an interview with the ex-MP, Mike Amesbury, Amesbury described the three days he recently spent in prison as “…surreal…like an out-of-body experience“, which the Independent‘s scribbler, one Ellie Crabbe, wrote down as “an outer body experience“. No sub-editor (if they even have any) corrected Ms. Crabbe’s egregious mistake. Appalling ignorance. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/reform-labour-amesbury-runcorn-chancellor-b2745519.html.

Meanwhile, in the Indy100, one Harriet Brewis, described as “ the Chief Reporter at indy100, covering everything from scientific discoveries to online trends. She previously worked on the Evening Standard’s news desk, heading up the coronavirus blog throughout 2020 and writing the website’s leading stories“, writes that a lake in California has returned after long absence, the water having been extracted by “the greed of colonialists“! Ha ha… Is this an English news outlet, or a Cuban one?

The water extraction was in the USA of the late 19thC, as the article does say, so “colonialists” is a bit anachronistic, arguably, and not really accurate anyway, however bad the treatment of the local Indians/Native Americans may have been.

I might add that that report was published somewhere else a year or two ago. I recall reading it, or some version of it.

Ah, I see now that it was first published a year ago. Well, OK, and it is quite interesting, but do subscribers (I am not one) pay to read stuff recycled from over a year ago? https://www.indy100.com/science-tech/tulare-lake-2024-2671911762.

Standards in all areas are, overall and collectively, dropping like a stone, as I noticed and/or predicted many many years ago, in the 1990s.

Talking point— the decline of the Conservative Party

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/may/07/massive-earthquake-in-politics-could-lead-to-tory-extinction-says-hunt

Former chancellor Jeremy Hunt has said the Conservatives cannot rule out becoming extinct because of a “massive earthquake” in politics that is seeing the fracturing of the old two-party system.

Senior Conservatives are increasingly alarmed about polls that show support for the party plummeting, while Reform UK is soaring.

Some Conservative party sources said there appeared to be “very little dynamism” within Conservative Campaign Headquarters about trying to turn the party’s electoral fortunes around, while many local activists and some agents have already made the leap to supporting Reform.

On Wednesday morning, a YouGov Westminster voting intention poll put Reform on 29%, Labour on 22%, the Conservatives on 17%, the Liberal Democrats 16%, and the Greens 10% – suggesting the Tories are now flirting with fourth place in popularity.

[Guardian]

In fact, the Conservative Party may well soon be in fifth place in terms of numbers of Commons seats (after Reform, Labour, LibDems, and the SNP).

Talking point— the decline of the Labour Party

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2025/may/07/disability-benefit-cuts-to-hit-700000-families-already-in-poverty-dwp-forecasts-show

The government’s planned disability benefit cuts will hit 700,000 families who are already in poverty, according to internal Department for Work and Pensions forecasts obtained by the Guardian.

The figures, sourced under the Freedom of Information Act, are in addition to the projected 250,000 people who will be newly driven below the poverty line by the cuts, as set out by the government’s impact assessment in March.

Disability rights campaigners called the new disclosure “truly shocking” and said the changes would push people even further away from having the means to find work.

The DWP estimates that 3.2 million families across Great Britain will lose out under the plans in 2029/2030, about three years after the cuts are due to take effect. Of those, 700,000 will be families already categorised as being in relative poverty, when taking housing costs into account.

[Guardian]

So that is some of the human and social cost of the policies of Starmer-stein, Rachel Reeves, and Liz Kendall (all members, incidentally, of Labour Friends of Israel). What, however of the political cost to Labour?

We see Labour already languishing in the opinion polls below 25%, in some at only 22%. I have already blogged about the fact that the UK population now has about 20% of its population non-white, and that those voters (those eligible and actually voting) probably now provide the vast bulk of Labour votes.

Since Starmer-stein lied his way to the office of Prime Minister in July 2024, his misgovernment has alienated the “average white families”, those above State Pension age, those approaching State Pension age, almost all British workers at or below average incomes, anyone concerned about the racial and cultural degradation of the country, anyone concerned about developers trashing the green countryside, and anyone at all concerned about the migration-invasion of between half a million and a million immigrants and/or invaders every single year.

Now, in addition to the above, Starmer-stein’s regime is about to hit not only the various types of disabled person, but also their families and others. The biggest hit will come in 2028 and 2029, just when the next general election is probably going to be held.

[“But I voted Labour last time! Never again!“]

The result of all of that is that Labour will quite likely have (a trend forecast on the blog quite a while ago, a few years ago) votes mainly from (some of) the “blacks and browns”, and (some of) the public service workers, including (some of) the NHS workforce. Even the 18-24 demographic generally is turning away from Labour.

The electoral result may be that Labour can only score 22%, maybe only 20%, at the next general election. The Conservative Party, on present showing, may not even achieve that. The LibDems are the default “alternative” or “dustbin party”, so will pick up votes from both, but mainly from disaffected Con voters; perhaps 15% or so overall. Greens and several others will take (combined) about 10%-15% of votes. That leaves maybe 30% of the whole available for Reform.

Nature abhors a vacuum. If Reform gets to 30%, with Con and Lab both in the 20%-25% range, the earthquake will have happened. Reform will be in government with a 30 or even 50-seat majority, Labour may have fewer than 140 MPs, and the Con Party may slump to as few as 25.

Once the main System parties are displaced, the only real alternative to Reform, after 2029, will be real social nationalism.

So less money for the Treasury (which means it will have to be found from elsewhere), and more unwanted immigrants coming to the UK (and don’t believe the nonsense about “short-term working” etc…).

The Starmer-stein and Rachel Reeves fake “Labour” government is a disaster in every way.

Under the surface, its attitude is probably unchanged. Snoopers.

As blogged previously Matt Goodwin may be a Father Gapon for our times…

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georgy_Gapon#Bloody_Sunday

The above nonsense is only part of huge wastage. The “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic “Test and Trace” programme alone was 4x worse. About £38 billion. I favour government spending, in principle, but the devil is in the detail. The kind of idiots who get into System politics in the UK are simply not capable of running anything properly, or of making the right decisions.

Mason has been examined previously on the blog. A System asset of some kind or other, but one who, for whatever reason, likes to be thought of as radical or even revolutionary. He always supports police-state measures; he did it during the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic, he did so when the BNP was rising up, he even did so when UKIP looked like becoming a major party. He certainly did so in relation to Greece, when the popular Golden Dawn social-national party was repressed by the fake “Left” or “socialist” party, Syriza, when the latter was in power. Syriza quickly sold out to international banking and the EU. The Golden Dawn people, many of them, still sit in prison.

There is something deeply unpleasant about Paul Mason. Deeply suspicious, too. Look at his Twitter/X timeline over the past few days. Incidentally, he is part-Jew: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Mason_(journalist)#Early_life_and_education.

What interests me more, though, is the revolution after the revolution…

Electoral Calculus suggests that those numbers would result in a Commons in which Reform would have 421 seats out of 650. Labour would have 92, the LibDems 56, the SNP 43, and the Cons only 8. Eight MPs… Surely terminal for the Conservative Party. https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

That ghastly little “Conservative” (?) scribbler and talking head, Harwood, really deserves some bad luck to come his way. Pro-Israel, pro-globalist finance-capitalism, in favour of cuts to public services and social security, in favour of unrestricted housing development. A System puppet, retailing “controlled opposition” rubbish.

[“48% of Britons say that immigration is one of the top issues facing the country, the joint-highest level since the election Economy: 52% (-2 from 26-28 Apr) Immigration: 48% (+4) Health: 36% (-1) Crime: 22% (-1) Defence: 20% (-2) Housing: 20% (=) Environment: 15% (-2) Tax: 14% (-1) Europe: 13% (+2) Welfare: 13% (+2).”]

Maybe the British people are at last beginning to wake up.

Defend? Against what? There is a concerted attempt to push for war with Russia, which would be both mad and pointless, Russia having no interest at all in invading central or western parts of Europe.

Ukraine was always part of Russia; as for the Baltic States or pribaltika, while I respect their rights to self-determination and their own cultures, that respect would not outweigh the right of the UK, France, and Germany etc not to get into a nuclear conflict with Russia over that small part of Northern Europe. In fact, the only reason Russia is now overshadowing the three Baltic states is because they have joined NATO. The same is true of Finland.

Present-day Russia is not like the old Soviet Union. It does not have the expansionist drive that came out of Marxist-Leninist ideology. It is also far less efficient in terms of military power (and secret intelligence etc).

European culture and civilization is threatened not by that fantasy “Russian invasion” but by migration-invasion from backward parts of the world, and I see very few and very weak attempts being made even to slow it, let alone stop it.

“Boris” Johnson— part-Jew and pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby, and a Conservative Friends of Israel member; Starmer-stein likewise— pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby, not himself Jewish (as far as is known) but with a Jewish wife, and with children being brought up as if fully-Jewish, Starmer being a member of Labour Friends of Israel.

Join the dots. Both Starmer-stein and “Boris” Johnson were fanatically in favour of the police-state measures brought in under cover of the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic, both funneled British taxpayers’ monies to “Ukraine” (the mainly Jewish regime in Kiev), and both encouraged and still encourage mass immigration into Britain, while having English/British dissidents and protesters arrested. Both also want to allow (((developers))) to build on what is left of the “green and pleasant land”.

As I say, just join the dots.

Once again, we see where that Harwood bastard is coming from. For him, British politics and society is all about the (((money))). Same goes for GB News generally (and, even worse, the “no-one watches” Talk TV).

Interesting that Harwood and GB News, supposedly small-c “conservative”, now start to defend Starmer-stein, i.e. now that his fake Labour (((government))) is collapsing amid public hatred of it and him.

Tweeter “@benonwine” should consider what percentage of the UK population is now non-European (non-white). About 20%. Not all of that bloc vote, and not all of that bloc who vote, vote Labour, but most do. Question more or less answered.

As to Goodwin’s tweet and YouGov’s polling, according to Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html], those numbers would be enough to give Reform about 345 MPs, and a goodly-sized Commons majority (19, but in practical terms about 30 or 40. Other significant parties: 143 Labour MPs, 71 LibDems, SNP 38, Cons 23.

On that basis, the once-great Conservative Party would be reduced to a very small rump of 23 MPs, and would be a very poor fifth party in the Commons, after Reform, Labour, LibDems, and the SNP. It would be the end of the Conservative Party, bar the shouting about the whys and wherefores.

Sending Kemi Badenoch back to Nigeria at once, or at least sacking her (asap), might save some of the present Con Party MPs, but not most, I think. The tipping point may already have been reached. Every time I see the woman on TV, I think, “can anyone really see that as a Prime Minister?“.

Surprising, yet not so surprising. Labour has done rather little for the people of Scotland in the past several decades. The SNP is only supported by, at most, half of the electorate. Reform may be the banner to which anti-SNP voters will flock.

I think I had not previously heard of that one. Rosie Wrighting. 27 years old. Sounds like a total bimbo. Selected/elected as MP aged 26. Had a job with ASOS for what seems to have been months not years. Never done anything else. Studied (Mickey Mouse “degree”?) fashion, we are told…

Walls. Squads. End(s).

Deutschland erwache!

England awake too!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

I just have no time for him.

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

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

Late thoughts on the recent by-election and local elections

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Morning music

[Sukhumi]

Full results from the Runcorn and Helsby by-election

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

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

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

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

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

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

I love it when System political “grifters” and careerists lose out like that.

Farage may be a snake-oil salesman but “God moves in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform“. Once Farage and Reform have hacked the way through the jungle, real social nationalism will be able to break through. Maybe in 2033, the centenary of 1933. Just a thought…

More thoughts about the by-election, local elections etc

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

That list is only the start.

The German “security and intelligence” bods should take a look at what happened to many of the Hungarian communist secret police in 1956, during the Hungarian Uprising. It was brutal…

Actually, the UK’s MI5 and police snoopers should also read up on that. History sometimes bites people like that on the ****.

Votes and elections will probably not be allowed to change the System (across Europe, certainly the EU and the UK). However, the discontent will find other outlets in the end. God help the System politicians and msm talking heads then…

Reform already shows worrying signs of infiltration and occupation.

Using Electoral Calculus, that might mean a Commons with about 376 Reform MPs (an absolute majority of 50, and a yet larger working majority), 113 Labour MPs, 71 LibDems (proving yet again that they are the “cockroach” survivors despite having really nothing at all to offer), 45 SNP, 12 Cons, and 5 Greens.

Labour is also looking at a well-deserved wipeout.

I notice that “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer-stein is now tweeting about “national security” and “defence”, at the same time as literally thousands of immigrants, tens of thousands, pour in every single day, mostly “legally”. As for the illegal, “small boat”, invaders, about a thousand are landing every day.

The Glamour Boys: The Secret Story of the Rebels who Fought for Britain to Defeat Hitler” tells the story of a small, loosely-knit group of rebel Conservative MPs who, from the mid-1930s onward, repeatedly warned of the dangers posed by Nazism, highlighted the plight of the Jews and vigorously opposed the appeasement policy of their own party’s prime minister, Neville Chamberlain.”

Runcorn and Helsby by-election— latest

https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/elections/2025/04/labour-has-nothing-to-be-happy-about-in-runcorn-and-helsby

Interesting view and analysis from the New Statesman. Not as tendentious as one might have expected.

Another view, this time from Cheshire Live: https://www.cheshire-live.co.uk/news/chester-cheshire-news/election-sees-voters-questioning-labours-31522527.

According to one poll, the only two significant contenders, Reform and Labour, are neck and neck, both around 35% of the vote. As to the bookmakers —in my experience a less reliable indicator— Reform are odds-on favourites at about 1/2; Labour 2/1: https://www.betfair.com/exchange/plus/politics/market/1.241434500.

As previously blogged, the only ways to sink Labour in this seat, and to at least “send a message” to Starmer-stein, are either to vote Reform or to vote anywhere but Labour or, failing that, not to vote at all. Whatever you do, do not vote (fake, taken-over) Labour.

I still think that Reform may smash this, but concede that I may be wrong. We shall soon know— the by-election is in three days’ time, Thursday 1 May 2025.

Import backward populations, import their religious, social, political and other behaviours. Surely that is not too hard for people to grasp, even those brainwashed by “anti-racist” propaganda?

Only a disciplined social-national movement can now save Britain and all Europe. Reform UK is a mere way-station. The real deal will come after Reform and all existing System parties are shoved aside.

She cannot believe that her treasured fake “centrist” parties have been found wanting by the British people. She has even invented a non-existent “moderate” party (it exists in her mind and tweets but nowhere else). Its “moderate” policies would include near-open borders, huge amounts of money funneled to Zelensky’s corrupt dictatorship, and huge, even unstinting, support for Israel and the Jewish lobby.

Nein danke…

Unfortunately, Douglas Murray is “a white man in a suit” who is a complete puppet of the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby. I should not complain about “racism” were it such that it were defending true European race and culture.

Of course, were anyone to denigrate “a black man in a suit” in the msm or System media, something seen daily, there would be uproar; the police (in their new chosen role as a poundshop Stasi) would probably get involved, in fact.

Yes, the USA might well be able to deploy 10x the military-destructive power that Russia can. Maybe even more. However, simple mathematics says that 0 x 10 is no different than 0 x 1. Once you are destroyed, you cannot be destroyed all over again.

Yes, it may be that the major Russian cities and towns and military bases could all be obliterated by American nuclear weapons, but I dare say that the 100 biggest American cities could also be largely destroyed by Russian missiles, together with the major American military facilities.

Saturday quiz

Well, 6/10 this week, trumping the 2/10 scored by political journalist John Rentoul. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 3, 5, and 8.

The Jewish-Zionist plot to bring down Corbyn

The website Declassified UK has published a review of a book on the anti-Corbyn campaign, headlined “Morgan McSweeney’s ‘plot without precedent in Labour history’— A new book chronicles how Labour strategist Morgan McSweeney used ‘any means necessary’ to destroy Corbyn as leader and install Starmer.”

As one would expect, the book and the review both term the anti-Corbyn plotters “the Right“, rather than “Jews” or “Jew-Zionists”; and they use the now so-outdated “Right/Left” descriptors.

In fact, the plot to topple Corbyn was plainly one planned and funded by pro-Israeli, and probably actual Israeli, sources at root, though carried out by Zionists or pro-Zionists not all of which were Jews (though many were).

I followed Corbyn’s progress on the blog almost from when the blog started in late 2016; certainly from 2017. It was clear to me that there was a basically Jewish —and almost certainly also Israeli— conspiracy to topple him.

Not that I much favoured Corbyn, a relatively uneducated man with simplistic socialist policy viewpoints. Also, while being anti-Israeli, Corbyn always gave lip-service to some of the Zionist propaganda regulars, such as the WW2 “holocaust” narrative. He was not ruthless enough to crush his enemies.

Still, Corbyn was at least a recognizable and relatively decent English type. Starmer (“Starmer-stein”) has no decency and is just a careerist drone, out for what he can get, as witness his grabbing whatever freebies, expenses-paid items, holiday trips etc he and his Jewish wife can grab. Also, of course, his directionless travel on policy.

The fake-Labour “welfare” cuts, the cheating of the pensioners, unemployed, sick, disabled etc. The U-turn on the “trans” nonsense, too. On the one hand on his knees (literally, with Angela Rayner) before the black mobs of “Black Lives Matter”, but then playing the poundshop Stalin when English people got angry at the migration-invasion.

The website post is worth reading, but cannot be linked to, it seems.

I wonder. I am minded to think that, even if a temporary peace is agreed soon, it will not last. Russia must take and retain all of the territory east of the Dnieper.

Balashikha is, inter alia, a kind of colony for high-ranking Russian military people, situated east of Moscow, and a kind of outer suburb.

The Kiev regime seems to be able to hit individuals in Russia quite efficiently. It is an open question whether the Kiev-regime secret services have, or have had, the help of the CIA and/or MOSSAD to do that. Not the CIA any more, I should have thought.

Of course, such assassinations, while high-profile, do not change the fact that, on the ground in Ukraine, Russian forces continue to advance steadily on all relevant sectors of the front.

As I predicted long ago on the blog. I said that Starmer-stein would try to “solve” the “small boats” migration-invasion by “processing” claims (rubberstamping them) swiftly, possibly overseas, thus magically turning illegal immigrants into legal ones, then emptying the asylum hotels by gifting the invaders council housing or State-paid private rental housing that should be going to British people.

I hope that the voters of Runcorn and Helsby send a firm message —by voting Reform— to Starmer-stein at the by-election next Thursday.

Runcorn and Helsby, this is your chance to make history.

On those figures, Reform would have well over 250 MPs, Labour fewer than 190, and the Cons only 75. The Cons might then be the third-largest party in the Commons, but possibly only the fourth-largest. Terminal.

That evil spirit, Ursula von der Leyen, talks about peace, while supplying the brutal and corrupt Kiev regime dictatorship with huge amounts of arms, ammunition, and EU taxpayers’ money.

Wherever two or more are gathered in my name...” (but are they?).

Runcorn and Helsby voters!— do what you have to do next Thursday to sink Labour. If you vote Reform, well and good. If you want to vote Green or elsewhere, OK. Whatever you do, don’t vote Starmer-stein fake Labour, even if it means just staying home.

So that’s the end of that…

Glad I am not in his boots (whether guilty or not).

It’s a small world

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

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

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

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

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

[Constance Marten, defendant]

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

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

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

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

Such a large ensemble required several interpreters.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[main entrance to Stratfield Saye House]
[part of Stratfield Saye House, Hampshire]

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

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

Even that was 35 or 36 years ago now.

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

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

[Crichel House, Dorset]

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

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

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

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

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

“Diverse” Britain

https://www.mylondon.news/news/transport/man-punched-piccadilly-line-after-31491200

A man was punched in the face on the Piccadilly line after asking a fellow passenger to move his bags from a seat and a buggy blocking the aisle. British Transport Police are now appealing for witnesses following the attack on board the carriage between 8.20am and 8.40am on Monday, March 31.

The attacker is described as black, with dreadlock hair, wearing a grey tracksuit and was accompanied by a woman with a buggy and suitcase.”

A terrified woman woke up to find a rapist licking her feet. Ahmed Fahmy, 46, raped and sexually assaulted women in hotels where he worked for over 16 years between 2008 and 2024.

Other reports also heard Fahmy fondled women’s toes. Cops first investigated him in January last year after reports of rape and sexual assault by two women who had been staying at the hotel in West Heath Drive, Barnet, where he worked.

A Croydon machete gang, who ‘brought knives to a gun fight’, got more than they bargained for during a raid on an Albanian cannabis farm, a court heard. Seven men and one boy – aged between 17 and 32 – were were armed with knives and machetes, while wearing balaclavas and construction gloves, when they faced off with gun-toting Balkan weed farmers, it is alleged.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The latter is particularly untrustworthy.

Late thoughts

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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