Martial arts enthusiast guilty of fatally stabbing partner in north London.”

A martial arts enthusiast has been found guilty of stabbing his partner to death at their home and then holding a friend captive and driving through a police cordon.

Jason Bell, 42, attacked Nicole Hurley, 37, with at least two knives at their home in Primrose Hill, north-west London in October 2021. Afterwards, Bell turned up at the house of a friend with a large army-style knife and accused him of sleeping with Hurley.”

Partner“? Looking at the two photographs, one has to ask “why?“, or “what was she thinking?“…

The full report is misleading in respect of one of the locations. It seems that the friend lived not in “Maida Vale”, as claimed, but in Kilburn, a couple of miles to the north of where I myself used to live in Little Venice. Even the estate agencies, which have invented a non-area called “North Maida Vale”, would be hard put to claim the location of the murder as having been in any sort of Maida Vale; not even “borders of”, I should think.

Terrible. Life in most places outside London is hard without a car. I have a car now, but when I lived in New Jersey in the early 1990s, I did not drive or own a car (my American first wife had one, though).

Getting into Manhattan by express (non-stop) bus was fairly good and only took about 50 minutes once on board, but to travel crossways, either eastward to the Jersey Shore, or westward to nearby settlements such as South River, was almost impossible, and involved a longish walk and then a ride on the one very occasional local bus, the M15 (I always called it the “MI5”).

Very inconvenient, and that is more or less what is now being inflicted on many rural dwellers in England.

Look at the fundamentals: Russia is still a functioning and indeed flourishing state in most respects. It has an oil and gas sector exporting around the world, other mineral exports, a state income which is huge, and an army which, despite problems, can still fulfil its tasks. Then there are the 6,000+ nuclear weapons. Russia’s domestic economy continues to work normally. Russia has huge potential reserves of both manpower and armaments.

Contrast Kiev-regime Ukraine: 10%+ of its former territories occupied and/or broken away; a population whose very low birth-rate (insufficient to replace losses via deaths) is one factor, another being the 20% of the pre-2022 population now living beyond Ukrainian borders. The country cannot export by sea, its industry is at a near-standstill, and its shambolic and tyrannical Jew-Zionist government cannot replace the 350,000 soldiers killed or hors de combat. It is now having to use press-gangs. Only foreign aid is keeping the war going, the army supplied with arms and ammunition, and the civilian population supplied with money.

Ha ha. “Laughter…the best medicine“.

As for the “Black on the Square” takeover on 2 September (my birthday, ironically), what an insult (further insult) to this country, to the British people, to us... Which of course is why alien enemy Sadiq Khan has done it.

It is not enough, apparently, that the Notting Hill area and miles around is taken over by a huge raucous crowd of blacks (with white hangers-on) every year.

No, times have changed, and it becomes necessary for the white British people who built Trafalgar Square, and London, and the British Empire, to feel the boot of the former slaves and conquered tribes and peoples on their collective neck…and to know that we, the British people, are now the conquered subjects.

Late tweets

In my view, juries, long considered bulwarks of liberty, are becoming useless in that regard both in the USA and UK, allowing the plainly guilty to go free (as seen in the O.J. Simpson case in California 30+ years ago, and in many cases since, e.g. the Colston statue vandalism case in Bristol a few years ago), while all too often bending the knee to the infested state and the Jewish lobby in the UK, as in recent and very obviously contrived/faked-up pseudo-“terror” trials.

Only the continued flow of arms, ammunition, money, food, medical supplies, and signals intelligence to the KIev regime keeps this conflict going. Take away Zelensky’s ricebowl—

Strange dream

Like Churchill, I have the habit of having an afternoon nap when possible. Today that came with an odd dream. I was running some political organization, and there was not only some (unidentified) journalist there, but also Nigel Farage.

Upstaging the journalist, Farage had made a grandiloquent offer, that is that he would pay me a million pounds to interview me for some TV show or podcast.

The interview was to take place at an ordinary table on the (maybe) third floor of a building. Just a dull, carpeted space, with a few people (including that journalist) around. Someone else was accompanying Farage.

Farage was about to start when, not quite trusting him, I remarked (in the dream, “urbanely”…) that I was sure that, as a man of business, he would not mind if I asked for the cheque upfront. He started to expostulate evasively. I asked what value of cheque he was willing to give. The answer, after some “umming and arring”, was…£22!

I became angry, dragging Farage from his seat and across the grey-carpeted floor to the window, with him struggling and trying to escape.

As I approached the windows, Farage in my grasp (though struggling to break free), I shouted at him that I had known that he could not be trusted, and that not only should he be chucked out of a window but that I was going to do it!

I then woke up.

Well, that was what I was doing this afternoon…

From where did that come?

In Diane Abbott’s case, the motivation is simple— she just hates white British people, despite having been given a very easy ride all her life.

She is also an idiot…

That idiot might easily have become Home Secretary.

When you look at the —superficially well-educated— political cretins who form the System political establishment, you see how it is that this country is sinking into the mire.

Well-intentioned if stupid members of the public donate money to Care4Calais etc, but I wonder(quite apart from the evil of importing hostile untermenschen into the UK) how much goes to “grifters” such as Clare Moseley, who also had an affair with a North African. In fact, the only reason she did not get knocked up by the said migrant-invader is because she was too old to get pregnant. See https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12085287/Founder-Care4Calais-steps-threatened-drag-volunteer-f-g-hair.html.

As a barrister (until wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred in 2016, though I did not practise law anyway after 2008), I saw, even in the early 1990s, the “rotten borough” that is asylum law, and immigration law in general.

Perhaps so, and indeed that dissident third would shrink further if the people asked knew that the invaders are not detained, can come and go freely, get free food and medical (etc) as well as shelter, and even pocket money on top.

Having said that, the barges are a distraction. Up to a thousand of the invaders cross the Channel daily. Only 500-600 can be accommodated on one barge. Also, cross-Channel migration is only a fraction of the whole (about a million a year, plus births to migrant/immigrant/other non-white women already here).

Not until London is cleansed. Read that however you like.

I wonder which pub that was. I lived, on and off, in Little Venice (Maida Vale), in those years. Just off Clifton Road..

I wonder how that army would stack up against either the Russian one or that of the Kiev regime?

Having said that, armies (especially large ones) vary much within themselves in their levels of effectiveness. Some regiments, corps, or other units are far above others.

Brutal. No wonder the Kiev regime is finding it hard to recruit volunteers, or even mercenaries.

Needless to say, I am not interested in “anti-racism” except as an observer of potentially-hostile groups, but I certainly agree with Miller’s points “1” and “2”, and “3” is at least arguable.

I have no idea how true any of that may be, but I have long been suspicious of the part-Jew scribbler and talking head, Paul Mason: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Mason_(journalist). A decade ago, I found his books (I read two of them) interesting (on economic and some social matters), but his political standpoint seemed to be an odd and very silly 1960s conflation of Marxism and anarcho-syndicalism.

In fact, the Wikipedia section about Mason’s political ideology shows him almost kaleidoscopic in belief or display [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Mason_(journalist)#Politics] which could be (I say could be, not is) a good cover for someone engaged in covert activities.

Mason says that he has moved from what he refers to as Trotskyism to (again, his description) “social democracy“.

Whatever his true views (assuming that he has some), Mason is basically anti-democratic, favouring state repression in a number of instances. Look at the remark he made about UKIP voters to the Daily Express in 2017: “They are toe-rags, basically. They are the bloke who nicks your bike.” A strange view to take of the nearly 4,000,000 voters who voted UKIP in 2015, or even of the nearly 600,000 who voted UKIP in 2017.

I should say that, in my opinion, Mason’s overall attitude to the British people is one of snarling contempt.

In the New Statesman magazine in June 2018, Mason argued the case for state suppression of “fascists”, saying that he favoured a policy of using “the full panoply of security measures to deter and monitor” those he described as “racists” and added: “For clarity, unlike many on the left, that means I am in favour of state suppression of fascist groups.” He finished his article by saying that “The progressive half of Britain needs a narrative to overcome this threat: a narrative based on shared, historic values of democracy and tolerance”, and also “[to] stop pandering to right-wing nationalism and xenophobia and start fighting it.”

[Wikipedia]

A point of view which is almost identical to that of the pre-1990 “Stasi” repression machine of the DDR (East Germany). It is also, in fact, not far from the view seemingly now taken by the “security” drones in the UK, perhaps tellingly.

Oddly, Mason’s background is not one of an economist. His degree was a “soft” one (Music and Politics, awarded by the University of Sheffield), after which he trained as a music teacher, then did some postgraduate research, again in the musical field. He taught music at Loughborough University for several years until 1988, when he was 28.

Mason moved to London in 1988, but his source(s) of income over the following 3 years are unknown; he then became, apparently, a “freelance journalist” for about 4 years (the date of starting doing that is vague), until employed from about 1995 on several different publications as writer and editor, the latter role having been at Computer Weekly.

From 2001 to 2013, Mason was on BBC Newsnight, and then was Economics Editor of Channel 4 News (2014-2016). After that, again freelance. He also now runs a political “consultancy”.

For whatever reason, Mason has been rejected (so far) in his quest to become a Labour MP, a quest which I predicted a decade ago in one of my popular reviews on Amazon UK, where I was voted one of the so-called “Top Reviewers”.

Sadly, readers of this blog cannot verify what I have just written— the Jewish lobby had all my Amazon UK reviews removed many years ago (thus proving, once again, that democracy and civil rights cannot co-exist for very long with a substantial Jewish population, not in any country).

As noted, Mason has tried to become a Labour MP in three constituencies so far, and reached the shortlist in two of them before having been rejected. Now, rumour has it that Mason will be selected to fight the Islington North seat presently held by Jeremy Corbyn, who has been sacked, to put it plainly, by Keir Starmer.

Mason has backed Starmer since at least 2022, despite Starmer’s policies being not very far removed from those of the Conservative Party. Mason the chameleon…

Autres temps, autres moeurs, perhaps. Mason must have had an income in the hundreds of thousands per annum in recent years…

Corbyn got about 64% of the vote at Islington North in 2019, has represented the area since 1983 and, apart from that first election (when he scored 40%) has never dropped below 50%, scoring 73% in 2017.

How much of Corbyn’s vote at Islington is for Corbyn and how much for Labour-label will only be made known at the next general election. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islington_North_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2010s. If Corbyn stands on some basis, and if Mason is the official Labour Party candidate, the fight will be brutal.

Migration invasion

I happened to see a few minutes of Sky News. All about the barge for “refugees'” at Portland. Can just about take 600 “refugees” (migrant invaders), so about one day’s Channel crossing total.

There was a small pro-migrant demonstration (about 20 idiots). The spokeswoman seemed to be some deluded old bat who said that the Government was at fault for not “processing” quickly enough the migrants’ asylum claims, so that they could be “settled”. Settled where? In houses and flats which should be going to British people.

I should be willing to bet that the deluded old bat in question thinks that everyone in the UK should have higher pay, better State benefits, better NHS services etc. How on Earth does she (and all those who think like her) imagine that those aims can be accomplished, when a million migrants a year are entering the UK, many of them completely unemployable? Those hordes are, at best, a millstone round the neck of the British people, and at worst a hostile enemy force and bloc.

Incidentally, the invaders on the barge will not be detained there. Oh, no. They will live there, sheltered and fed, and provided with medical and dental services. They will not only be free to go out to Portland or Weymouth or elsewhere, but also provided with a free shuttle bus service from the barge to the nearest town (running from morning until into the evening), and some pocket money (I believe about £40 a week).

All the System parties are in fact within the same Coudenhove-Kalergi conspiracy, at their higher levels.

Well, the founder of “Care4Calais”, Clare Moseley, certainly offered a migrant-invader not only her bedroom but also her bed, and herself in it! See below.

(((you know who…))).

(in fact, his name is Tamir Pardo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamir_Pardo).

As previously remarked, if the (mostly fake) “refugee” hordes are simply a useless parasitic population within our borders, that would be the best outcome. The worst (and far more likely) outcome would be that the black/brown invaders will form a vast criminal and/or terroristic bloc here. It is already happening, in fact.

The fact is that the Government has lost control, the fake Labour “Opposition” might even be worse from 2024, the Security Service, MI5, and the police and their so-called “anti-terror” branches have also lost control, and mainly focus on the British popular response to the migration invasion, by repressing freedom of expression etc.

Eventually, something will have to give way, and we shall then be in some form of civil war.

Exactly. Numbers of people, not whether (as such) they run cars, or burn coal. The primary fact is the overall number.

The most interesting secondary fact is that the two main System parties are only supported by two-thirds of the voters. However, that is almost irrelevant from an electoral point of view, thanks to the UK’s First Past The Post electoral system. Those two parties will probably take not merely most of the seats in England, or even two-thirds, but almost all of them.

1956, the year of my birth (as well as the year of Khrushchev’s Secret Speech, the Suez Crisis, and the Hungarian Uprising). That scene now looks like a very long time ago indeed.

As I have blogged previously, Ukraine as a state has no future. In the past year, 350,000 (almost all men) killed or injured on the battlefield, while 20% of the population (mostly women and under-18s) is living outside Ukraine, and on top of a very low birthrate even before 2022.

I do not claim to know much about cars; is that a Corvette?

In 1995, the twins, Kyrie and Brielle Jackson, were born 12 weeks premature, each weighing only about 2 pounds. They were placed in separate incubators. One twin was not expected to survive. She went into critical condition. Her heart rate was rising while her oxygen level was dropping significantly. They were about to lose her. It was then that one nurse, Gale Kasparian, went against the hospital rules and standard procedure, putting the healthy twin next to her struggling sister in the same incubator. This decision turned out to be life-saving. Once the twins were close to each other, the struggling sister (Brielle) snuggled up to the healthy sister (Kyrie) who put her arms around Brielle. Almost immediately after, Brielle’s vital signs started stabilizing. Her heart rate and oxygen levels normalized. Both twin sisters eventually survived and grew into strong young women. The picture below came to be known as the rescuing hug and would change a part of our understanding of medicine. Hugging that is coming from the heart is proven to have calming and healing effects. Maybe there is someone in your life that can use a warm and heartfelt hug right now.”

I wonder how many more shantytowns of the same sort will be built under the expected “Labour” government after 2024, in order to shelter the million unwanted immigrants (migrant invaders) arriving here every single year. Mostly useless parasites.

Interesting, as are a few of the readers’ comments.

Argos was started by a man who “invented” Green Shield stamps, a ubiquitous thing in 1960s/1970s Britain. In fact, he “borrowed” the idea of those stamps from the USA, where they had been around for about half a century.

When that man, Richard Tompkins, started Argos, almost all the “experts” in the newspaper financial and business columns of the Press thought that it would not work. The “experts” were wrong, as usual (the same columnists and other scribblers also thought, in the 1980s and 1990s, that Sky TV and Amazon respectively would not succeed).

I blogged once or twice recently about Ukraine’s severe demographic problems: low birthrate, 20% of the pre-2022 population (mostly women and under-18s) now not within Ukrainian borders, and now these deaths and other casualties. If the war continues, Ukraine as a state has no future.

Never underestimate the strategic importance of defence in depth. In 1943, Allied forces invaded Sicily, then landed at Anzio, south of Rome, in January 1944, subsequently advancing to Rome itself by June 1944. The Italian government of Mussolini collapsed after the Fascist Grand Council and the King dismissed Mussolini, who was arrested (though later rescued by Otto Skorzeny’s commando and glider force).

The fall of Rome in 1944, however, was not the end of the matter in big-picture terms. The several east-west German lines of defence were only slowly breached by Allied forces: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gothic_Line.

The German forces withdrew from the various lines in good order, always to the North. By the end of the Second World War in 1945, the Allies had still not reached the Austrian frontier.

In the present Ukraine conflict, the Kiev-regime forces are exhausting themselves. They have little prospect of advancing as far as Crimea, nor of regaining the former Ukrainian oblasts of Donetsk and Lugansk, let alone of breaching, in any substantial way, the borders of Russia proper.

[“Russia has no borders; it is wherever there are Russians“]

Sunak’s ancestors picked our crops in British Raj India and in British East Africa; he now tells middleaged/elderly white British people to “chop chop“…

Traitors facilitated the importation of exploitative hordes who despise the British people.

The main assault of freedom of expression in the UK comes from the Jew-Zionist element; 95%+ of the anti-free-speech tyranny is from “them”.

“Grifter”/fraudster “Jack Monroe” has now deployed yet another “sock account”, one “@ThelastFM2” (joined Twitter July 2023, 1 “follower”). She has hundreds of such fake personas. They even have contrived conversations with each other about how good Jack Monroe is, and/or about how bad or dishonest are those exposing “Jack Monroe”.

One of many many examples.

The police, HMRC and charity regulators (and Twitter) should be investigating “Jack Monroe”.

Are they waking up?

…and look at those stupid police “me too-ers” supporting Eddie Izzard and thus the whole “trans” nonsense.

Those police idiots should get out and start doing their proper job, assuming that they can still remember what that is.

…and all the msm “enablers” are now calling Eddie Izzard “she”, “her” etc. The UK is at least halfway to going absolutely mad, but that progression to lunacy has not come about by accident. It has been contrived. It is being contrived. Daily. Conspiracy.

So far, nothing more on Twitter from Gonzalo Lira. Looks like he has been arrested. It seems naive to have posted the above tweets and then tried to cross the border. It occurred to me that Lira was going to try to cross a different border than the one specified, but that might not have made any difference in the digital age.

[Update, 11 September 2025: Gonzalo Lira died in Kiev-regime custody in January 2024, 6 months after he posted the above tweets and tried to escape from Ukrainian territory.

Part of a huge transnational campaign by the forces of evil, the aim being to trash or replace what are sometimes termed “the Good, the Beautiful, and the True”.

Ah. That had puzzled me. Here we have a notably corrupt and shambolic “state”, Ukraine, which for 30+ years has become ever-more corrupt and shambolic. That state has now been invaded, a tenth of its territory occupied, and about 20% of the population has fled to other countries. Industry is largely idle, while agricultural produce cannot be, for the most part, exported. Despite all that, the exchange rate of its currency, the hryvnia, has not dropped through the floor. Why not?

Local MP? Freeloading chancer Jackie Doyle-Price [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_Doyle-Price].

Crazy Britain.

Online “grifter”, “Supertanskiii”, who apparently makes some kind of living partly via pretending to be an “anti-Tory” “activist” (i.e. she tweets ranting, repetitive, and boring remarks about “the Tories” several times a day, and is, or so I read, sent money by, I also read, pathetic middle-aged men, mostly), engages in dialogue with someone about better-known “grifter” “Jack Monroe”. Note also how “Supertanskiii” uses that stupid “they” thing when she means “she“.

The conversation was all about how MP Lee Anderson (admittedly not someone of whom I particularly approve) was evil etc when he claimed to be able to make food for 30p (while fraudster “Jack” claims to be able to do the same for 11p). Both totally implausible, in my opinion.

Louise Theroux and Nick Fuentes

Saw a recording of a recent Louis Theroux TV show. His usual modus operandi, i.e. try to appear friendly or at least honestly inquisitive, while plotting how to entrap his interviewers and/or make them look stupid. It often works. The only one of his interviewees (from the relatively few of his shows seen by me) who managed to put Theroux in his place was the late Max Clifford.

This show was about one Nick Fuentes and his followers in the USA. I had heard of Nick Fuentes, but knew little of him.

I have to say that Theroux did not have a difficult task this time. Weird people giggling and making jokes out of serious issues, these Nick Fuentes followers (and the man himself) came across more like silly boys aged about 10 (in most cases) rather than young or youngish men in their twenties and thirties trying to put forward serious points and maybe attain to political leadership.

Not that I disliked or disagreed with all that they said. They seemed to be fairly solid on the “Jewish Question”, though their views were pretty superficial.

Nick Fuentes himself seemed reasonably intelligent, and is plainly making a small fortune out of his activities, but some of his views are just mad, and I have nothing in common with the “nothing is serious”, or “making jokes to make a semi-serious point” tactics he and his followers deploy. I also have nothing in common in terms of lifestyle with these “gamers” and their Call of Duty (etc) interests. I have never played such a game, not even once. There again, I am now 66, twice or even three times the age of these —to me— strange young/youngish men (apparently there are a few women, but not many).

They all expressly disclaimed any connection with, or interest in, National Socialism, or what they termed “white supremacism“, or even “white nationalism“. That rang a couple of alarm bells for me. It occurred to me that Fuentes, and the movement as a whole might be a kind of plant, or at least being loosely manipulated as “controlled opposition”.

Here is a movement of the contemporary computerized era: no ideology to speak of (from what I have seen so far), no real programme, no administrative structure beyond whatever is necessary to publish their views online. A rag-tag bunch of followers, though quite numerous (Fuentes was said to be able to gather a crowd of several thousands at short notice, and in any state of the Union).

I enjoyed seeing the scenes of the U.S. Capitol invaded, but that did not amount to a putsch, even on the slightly comic-opera or tragi-comic level of, say, the Beer Hall Putsch of 1923 in Munich, which at least had real aims, real ideology, serious people (Hitler, Himmler, Goering, Ludendorff, Rudolf Hess, Dietrich Eckart etc), and real courage and steel.

The U.S. Capitol “riot”, by contrast— no discipline, no ideology, no real leadership; chaotic, and with nothing to fall back upon afterwards.

Not very impressive (both Fuentes’ movement and Theroux’s show). The nagging thought is in my mind— what interests are served by a phenomenon such as that? It may be little more than a safety-valve for the System.

The VBI” refers to the “Jack Monroe” invention (which does not in fact exist) of a so-called “Vimes’ Boots Index” of inflation monitoring of basic or staple products. Another “Jack Monroe” scam, in short.

Short answer— no. Maybe days later, but only as a useless rubbernecker (who later tried to scam more money using the situation as a painted backdrop).

Tweeter “Birdy Bart”: joined Twitter late June 2023, and only 1 “follower”. The latest “Jack Monroe” “sock account”. Pathetic, but not as pathetic as the 379 utter mugs still each sending the fraudulent “grifter” between £3.50 and £44 a month, a total of thousands of pounds a month.

Still, the tide has turned.

Last year, “Jack Monroe” was being chucked money by about 850 mugs (she having been endorsed by Jewish “celebrity” “foodies” Nigella Lawson and Jay Rayner).

In the latter part of 2022, that ~850 declined to about 400 or so as people started to wake up to the fraudulent and abusive behaviour etc by “Jack Monroe” and her fans; then the number declined further, to 396-397, and stuck there for quite a while, several months. Now— 379. Must still be several thousand a month, though, as noted. Even on the lowest level (£3.50 each), that is still over £1,300 in cash, though, every month, and taxfree. At a guess, she must still be pulling in about £4,000 a month from those mugs.

In the future, say 200 years from now, will 2023 be classed alongside 1941, 1939, and 1914, and will earnest discussion among academics ask “could that war have been prevented?”

That horrible greedy farmer who badly damaged the River Lugg a couple of years ago has been released from prison, having served only 2-3 months of an already-lenient 10-month sentence.

A good example of how weak the justice system now is. Some flexibility is good, but when convicts are only serving a quarter of a prison sentence, and when that sentence is often inadequate to start with, the system itself starts to break down, as does society.

Piers Corbyn, one of the great British eccentrics, the kind applauded by G.K. Chesterton in some of his Father Brown stories.

“Legal tender” is legal tender, but you can see the way the UK is going: “app only” purchasing, “15 minute ghettoes cities”, “social credit”, etc. Dystopian Britain. It’s happening, gradually, all around us, right in front of us.

Part of that is the fake “communitarianism” tested out during the “Covid” “scamdemic”/”panicdemic”, e.g. the “caring sharing” NHS which leaves millions to suffer and die; also the “emergency services” (police, ambulance, fire brigade) in general, which used to respond within minutes, maybe 5, 10, 15 minutes, but now (at least the first two) sometimes take hours to arrive or, more commonly, just refuse to attend at all, referring callers either to a website, or to some bloody “app”, or to often-useless advice lines.

There seems to be only one solution for the Afghan[istan] problem, meaning to delete and start anew, from tabula rasa. The British, Russians, Americans and British (again) failed in the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. The Soviet Union was winning from 1979, but the Americans stupidly created a monster by funnelling arms and ammunition to the savage tribesmen and fanatics such as Osama bin Laden. When it comes to the USA, it seems that its ignorant leaders never learn.

The same is true for armchair warrior Tobias Ellwood.

That may be right about heat pumps, or some heat pumps, I do not know, but one thing I am sure of is that Reform UK has no chance, politically. Recent by-elections have made that clear.

I do not think that the tide of affairs is moving toward “libertarian” “conservatism”. The people want clean efficient government, in fact quite a few want (unconsciously) a less “Germanic” form of national socialism, or even national near-“communism”, as problems abound with cost of living, housing, crime, migration-invasion, huge inequality etc.

Real timeline: promote electric cars, gradually get rid of all non-electric cars, then make electric cars even less affordable than they now are, then force 90% of the public onto public transport and/or into “15-minute ghettoes cities”.

Dystopian slave society upcoming.

The failure of Europe to keep pace with America has taken its toll on living standards. The average EU country is now poorer per head than every state in America bar Idaho and Mississippi.

The latter, the poorest state in the Union, is often referred to as America’s Third World but — with an average per capita annual income of $50,000 — the citizens of Mississippi are better off than their counterparts in France.”

[Daily Mail]

While I am no fan of the EU, the above is a typical example of how journalists twist the facts. Yes, per capita, France is “poorer” than Mississippi, but that is merely a headline figure.

In France, citizens get free and, until recently, quite good education, not only free at primary and secondary level, but also at tertiary level— universities, les grand ecoles, institutes etc. In Mississippi, higher education has to be paid for, either in cash or via student loans.

In France, medical and dental care of high quality is available via a hybrid State insurance system with a safety net for the unemployed, elderly etc. Hospital wards were done away with 40+ years ago. In Mississippi, there are areas without much healthcare at all and, despite Medicare, Medicaid, Obamacare etc, health insurance is almost essential, if you or your employer can afford it.

Then there is the finance-capitalist system generally, and how it results in inequality of capital and income. In France, despite inequalities, there are relatively few people in grinding poverty; not so in Mississippi, where the top few percent take most of the money.

Residents ‘gobsmacked’ as horse and carts race through Bournemouth.

Footage sent to the Echo shows youths sat on the back of a cart attached to horses in the Lower Gardens, underneath the flyover at Pier Approach. 

Concerned residents feared there could have been injuries or even a fatality if the horses had hit somebody, so phoned the police.

One resident, who asked to remain unnamed, was walking around the town when he came across the bizarre sight on Saturday, July 22.

I was just concerned because had there been a little child, or pet, or mother with a pram came running down, the horse would have gone into them and there could have been a fatality.’

The man said it was the first time he had seen anything similar in more than 30 years of living in Bournemouth.

However, he didn’t want people to have negative attitudes towards travellers.

[Bournemouth Echo].

Isn’t that so typical of England in 2023? Nuisances, in this case “travellers” (Irish “tinker” “gypsies”), make life difficult and less pleasant (and potentially dangerous) for normal citizens, but nothing is done about them, the police do nothing, and even the concerned citizen who reported them felt obliged to say that no-one should have “negative attitudes” towards the nuisance group.

The System propaganda, endlessly pumped out by most msm outlets, by schools, by the churches (what’s left of them), and by MPs (especially Labour ones) has seeped into the thinking of many many people.

When I started this blog, nearly 7 years ago, I thought that the UK could be saved; now, I feel less sure every day.

HS2 was a wrongheaded concept anyway. The high-speed train idea is OK in much larger countries such as France or China, or very elongated countries, such as Japan. Chile would be ideal. Not in the UK, unless the train were to go London to Scotland, or maybe to Penzance; the present plan is London to Manchester via Birmingham.

The Eastern route (to Leeds) has gone. There never was a Cornish route, and anyway the existing rail line would not be strong enough to take such trains beyond Exeter.

The HS2 project should have been scrapped a decade ago, and the money spent on providing more services and more branch lines in the North.

As it is, the project will be delivered in the 2030s (maybe), at ruinous expense, at ruinous environmental cost. Already the construction has scarred the landscape, destroyed ancient woodland etc.

[HS2 ground preparation scars the landscape near Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, in 2021]

All so that a train currently taking 1 hr 22mins to Birmingham will take 52 mins in the future, a saving of 30 mins. Oddly, the reduction in (fastest) travel time to Manchester will be less— 1 hr 40 mins instead of 1 hr 54 mins, a saving of only 14 minutes.

It is just not worth the money and the environmental damage.

Speaking of System propaganda…

The public are currently subjected to endless propaganda for the LGBTQXYZ agenda, masquerading as “sports news”.

I switched on BBC TV News recently, for the first time in a while, only to find that most of the broadcast was taken up with a report about some women’s football game in Denmark.

Women’s football is being heavily pushed by the “usual suspects”. No-one had even heard of women’s football a few years ago, not as a mass spectator sport. It now turns out that many of the women footballers are lesbians.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-12350321/These-female-footballers-lighting-World-Cup-superb-skills-field-love-lives-adding-drama.html.

I myself am, in any case, not a sports fan, but the propaganda is just so blatant. Is that why most people do not notice it? It hides in plain sight.

This sort of nonsense is, like all the “anti-racism” stuff, and the “blacks with everything” agenda, part of a larger conspiratorial picture: see, e.g., https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/12/10/tv-ads-and-soaps-are-the-propaganda-preferred-by-the-system-in-the-uk/.

Either Israel will eventually be hit by nuclear missiles from Iran or elsewhere, or it will fall apart internally, and then be subject to an uprising by the ~7,500,000 Palestinian Arabs who live at present corralled in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank areas, and inside the boundaries of Israel itself. The Arabs, as a population, number about the same, or only slightly fewer, than the Jews living in Israel.

If he were not so evidently mendacious and evil, Zelensky could simply be called an idiot. Imagine claiming to want a “peace plan” without the participation of the main player!

Dangerous territory both metaphorically and literally. If PMC Wagner were to attack Poland, that would presumably be taken to be an incident triggering Article 5 of the NATO Treaty (because presumably an action ordered by the Russian Government). Likewise, were Polish forces to attack official Russian or Belarusian forces, or to enter Ukrainian territory, there might be direct conflict between Polish and Russian forces, also probably triggering Article 5.

Sensible heads must rethink this conflict, and especially the increasingly frenetic NATO aid to the Kiev regime, before all Europe goes up in flames.

Naturally, it was tragic that the war or wars of the early/mid 1940s happened. There was right and wrong on both, indeed all, sides. However, that was ~80 years ago, and the Reichstag was destroyed over 78 years ago. There is now no need to trigger another huge war in Europe by arming, and funnelling ammunition and money etc, to the corrupt, brutal, shambolic Kiev regime. Germany should learn the lesson of history here.

One of my several problems with expenses cheat and fraudster Nadine Dorries is that she is typical of a great number of MPs in simply being far too stupid, uncultured and generally uneducated to be a legislator of any kind.

Ha. Harsh but true.

Erasure” of Jews? Ha ha.

Oh well, people can dream, I suppose…

In reality, though, whether in TV, on radio, in films, in newspapers, in fact in the msm generally, indeed in UK, US, French (etc) society in general, you can hardly get away from “them”. “They” have certainly not been “erased”, and there is no “erasure” happening, at least that I can see. Au contraire.

Baddiel does not object to Jews or blacks playing non-Jew and non-black roles, including roles of people who actually existed (even Anne Boleyn was played by a black American woman not so long ago, absurdly), but he does object to Jews being played by non-Jews, so long as the said Jews are —rightly or wrongly— considered to be positive characters.

Presumably, Baddiel does not want Jewish theatricals confined to playing Jewish roles.

“They” always want things their way.

As a matter of fact, I have never seen the creators of atomic weapons (almost all of which, in the 1940s and 1950s, were Jews) as being very positive, especially in view of the fact that they wanted to use the weapons not only on Japan but also in Europe, and especially on Germany. That was the original target. Thank God Europe dodged at least that bullet.

Atomic science in the 1940s, 1950s was largely, though not entirely, a preserve of Jews, starting of course, with Einstein.

The benefits of [atomic science] in practice are far outweighed by the negative aspects.

Would it not have been better had [atomic science in practice] never existed? Would it not be better if [atomic energy and weapons] did not exist, or were, in the future, somehow eliminated?

As for blacks playing white Europeans from history, when will a white European actor be playing the part of Nelson Mandela in a TV or film drama? Never, I am presuming…

Gina Miller now. Farage recently, but before both of them were the Patriotic Alternative people— Mark Collett, Laura Towler, Sam Melia, who all had their personal bank accounts shut down, and not by esoteric banks such as Coutts, but by high street names (I think Barclays, Halifax etc). Incidentally, those three were “cancelled” at least a couple of years ago.

This is all a part of a gradual encroachment— the “Great Reset” of Western society by secretive cabals.

Without banking services, political parties cannot operate“. Indeed, but why does Golding think this is happening? Precisely so that one cabal, or connected cabals, can rule over the UK (and beyond) without much political opposition of any kind. These are initial, tentative experiments in control (just like the “lockdowns” the facemask nonsense etc). To use the usual phrase, “first they came for...”, in this case, Patriotic Alternative.

Probably the only reason nothing has happened to me so far (in terms of banking) is because a. I belong to no party or group, and b. I have little money anyway.

What a massive hypocrite Toby Young is. He never said a word when I was wrongfully and indeed unlawfully disbarred in 2016, or in relation to any of the false and malicious complaints made to Twitter, online fora and even police about me (made, in every single case, by Jews). One of those matters is still ongoing, in fact, I having been (some time ago and quite wrongly) charged under the notorious “bad law” of Communications Act 2003, s.127. That case will not come to trial (if at all) until Autumn 2023.

In fact, that much-abused law (mostly, in the political realm, abused by Jews engaging in “lawfare”) is set to be either repealed, or at any rate superseded, next year. It may well be that I shall be that last person tried under its poorly-drafted provisions.

Reverting to Toby Young’s hypocrisy, he and his so-called “Free Speech Union” also never said a word in defence of others who have been persecuted and/or prosecuted by Jewish interests: Jez Turner, Alison Chabloz, and many others.

One used to see dozens, even hundreds of tweeters naively defending “Jack Monroe” and/or holding her up as a wonderful and principled “activist” etc. No more. The few tweeters defending her are patently almost all “sock accounts” operated, in my opinion, by “Jack Monroe” herself. Often recently set up, often with few or even no Twitter “followers”. She admitted to doing that a decade ago, in fact.

I notice, also, that the large commercial and other organizations that used to cite “Jack Monroe” in tweets and other publicity, now do not. As a public figure, she has almost certainly reached the end of the line.

Still, I would not mind having 397 people (in her case, utter mugs) all sending me money monthly via Patreon, adding up to several thousand pounds each month.

Ha ha. I like the way the policeman fell back into what looks like a paddling pool. Beyond that, it shows how desperate the Kiev regime is getting for more cannon-fodder. The “stout” man looks about 40 years old at least, and markedly overweight.

Thinking about the desperate attempts by the Kiev regime to recruit (press into service) anyone they can leads me on to thoughts of the demographic future of Ukraine.

Even before the war, the population of Ukraine was in decline, mainly because of the past 30+ years of corrupt, shambolic “independence” as well as, pre-“Independence”, decades of Brezhnevite stagnation when Ukraine was a constituent part of the Soviet Union.

Now, huge numbers of, mainly, young and youngish men have been killed, many others badly wounded. Hundreds of thousands in all. Many Ukrainian women, at the same time, have taken the chance to settle in other parts of Europe. Most men are barred from leaving. The birth-rate in Ukraine must already have declined even further. This is a state without a future.

Take away Zelensky’s ricebowl.

The next US election will be crucial.

Most countries concentrate their cultural treasures in terms of opera, ballet etc in one city, usually the national capital, a concentration of cultural forces. Moscow, Paris, etc. Not all, but the exceptions are countries which were only unified (or created) in the 19thC (Germany and Italy, the USA).

The most important thing is to keep a bloc of white Northern Europeans intact, because that bloc can be the foundation for a later “super-race”, one far ahead of where we are now. That foundation has to be “post-Aryan” and white European; the other races and groups cannot provide such a foundation. The later “super-race” will be a quantum leap in human evolution. The other races and ethnicities will be left behind, just as, compared to our world of today, previous forms of humanity have been left behind.

One correction: as far as I can see, the only “neo-Nazi problem” that Ukraine has is that so few “neo-Nazis” seem to exist there. If that is wrong, why do they tolerate Zelensky’s corrupt, brutal, and shambolic NWO/ZOG tyranny?

Interesting. Usually, the “instructor” in such a situation would be the one from the army of the state, not from the private military company. However, who knows from where that “instructor” has come, in career terms? Russian Spetsnaz? The post-Soviet VDV?

Sad report

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-66317374

A historic royal census, known as “swan upping”, has revealed a 40% drop in the number of cygnets on the River Thames, compared with last year.

The decline has been blamed on avian flu but also a growing problem of violence, including shootings, catapult attacks and dogs killing swans.

[BBC]

I was saddened to hear, on BBC Radio 3 news this morning, that same report, i.e. that the number of swans counted on the Thames this year is about 40% lower than in previous years, and that, worse yet, part of the decline is because of “increased violence towards swans“. Jesus Christ! What sort of horrible bastards are cruel to swans?! They should be flayed alive if caught mistreating swans.

Having said that, there was always a small amount of such badness. I remember rowing my inflatable boat, with someone from my school, down the then-still-closed river Kennet in 1971, and seeing a dead swan in the water. The swan was obviously not long dead. That happened somewhere between Newbury and Reading. Not long after having seen the dead swan, we passed an unpleasant-looking young man on the bank, not older than about 20, with some kind of rifle or air-rifle. Were the two sights connected? I think probably they were.

Incidentally, the Kennet, and connected Kennet and Avon, was then only navigable by carrying the boat around disused locks, over barbed-wire fences etc. Since then, volunteers have been able to re-open the waterway to traffic: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kennet_and_Avon_Canal.

As if “Jack Monroe” is going to do any of that…

She hopes that her critics will tire of trying to enlighten the public (including the 397 utter mugs still —as of today— sending her a total of several thousand pounds per month via Patreon). If the critics tire, then she can resume (on a larger scale) her decade-long career of “grifting” and defrauding and embezzling and “cosplaying”, as may be convenient for her; maybe even get onto Question Time again (which does not usually pay, but does tend to validate her with the msm in general and with the uninformed majority of the public.

Ignorant Jewish talking head Emily Maitlis, hugely overpaid by the BBC thanks to the outdated and tyrannical “licence fee” system, wilfully fails to see the bigger point about freedom of expression. I can only assume that she is unaware that other people, less famous than Nigel Farage, have also been “cancelled” for having the “wrong” views (i.e. anti-System views), people such as Mark Collett, Laura Towler, Sam Melia (all of Patriotic Alternative), and others. They all lost their personal bank accounts, and they were not “cancelled” by Coutts but by standard high street banks such as Barclays and (I think) Halifax.

You hear much (and rightly so) about the attempted bank account cancellation of Farage, but where were Laurence Fox, the “Free Speech Union”, Toby Young etc when those other victims had their bank accounts cancelled? Where were those “champions of free speech” when Alison Chabloz was imprisoned for posting online legitimate satire about Jewish and Zionist behaviour, or during my continuing persecution at the hands of the Jew-Zionist lobby? Absent.

Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby…

I agree on every single one of those.

Ukraine (Kiev regime) cannot win this war; indeed, without having been propped up by vast amounts of money, arms, ammunition, clothing, food etc from the West, it would already be totally on its knees.

Scotland

Pakistani “Scotsman”, SNP Leader and First Minister of Scotland Humza Yousaf, now proposes the flooding of Scotland with new huge numbers of Pakistani and other migrant-invaders.

If that were ever to happen as proposed, many migrant-invaders would take up Scottish citizenship purely in order to, sooner or later, relocate to England. That in turn would entail the building of…a wall…to keep them out. Certainly the construction of border fortifications.

In reality, though, it will almost certainly never happen. Even bearing in mind the pseudo-nationalist idiocy that leads to nearly half of the Scottish electorate voting SNP (that’s right— the SNP has never garnered even half of Scottish votes), this must surely give even die-hard SNP supporters pause.

Yousaf may just have cost the SNP a goodly portion of its votes.

I usually steer clear of commenting on Scottish politics, but think that faux-“Independence” is losing traction.
