Why do Labour refuse to discuss all violent acts committed by black and minority people,but don't hold back when it's white people? I don't get that. 🤔
People still want to believe that the political and electoral systems are honest, and have the interests of the British people at heart, even as it becomes blatantly obvious that that is not so.
But they would be just stating facts…. I get the feeling that facts are racist, along with everything else. 🤔
Meanwhile, the new “Labour” bastards are throwing money at pointless “climate change” rubbish all over the world, at foreign aid, £3 billion a year going to the brutal and doomed regime of the Jew Zelensky in Kiev, and huge amounts of money are wasted on sheltering and feeding migrant invaders; and on all sorts of other useless and unwanted garbage.

‘I knew absolutely nothing about hatstand crazy disgraced former Prime Minister Liz Truss planning to stop free cancer treatment on the NHS to find the money she needed for her unfunded tax cuts… for I was only her Health Secretary’
All the Prime Ministers of the UK back to 1997 need to be put on trial and then dealt with.
Liz Truss is truly one callous piece of work. To even contemplate removing cancer treatments from the NHS just shows she is clinically insane. pic.twitter.com/ymAnhqlN1x
I am not usually a “hanger and flogger”, but it would please me to see Liz Truss’s carcass swinging and twisting in the wind.
Leaving the individual case behind, there is something very wrong with a system that elevates such unworthy individuals to the highest non-hereditary office. Not just Liz Truss (who only became an MP on her back in the first place). Look at Theresa May, who was an executive at the BACS cheque-clearing organization— hardly cutting-edge. That is before we even get onto the subject of “Boris”-idiot and others, including Starmer.
I’ll put my hands up and say Sunak & Truss for the Tories were diabolical but this tosser in 6 weeks has stolen their crown. We have seen some dangers and clueless PM. But don’t ever let a Labour voter take the piss out of you again. This guy is a complete disgrace. pic.twitter.com/Sxm17PRNz7
A suitable punishment for Liz Truss and others involved would be to lose their stolen money (e.g. via hyperinflation, or confiscation) and then to get cancer, the treatment for which they would be unable to receive without payment, which payment they would be unable to afford. That would be too just in this world, though, I suppose.
I continue to find this staggering. During the fall-out from Kwarteng's mini-budget, Truss wanted to meet the governor of the Bank of England but was advised against it by the cabinet secretary. She also reveals that she never met the governor in person. pic.twitter.com/gA97VVK2v4
She says that she did not meet the Governor of the Bank of England because she did not want to undermine the then Chancellor, Kwasi Kwarteng (aka “Woollyhead Trussbanger”).
Starmer and his cabal are rubbish, and tyrannical rubbish at that, but the only reason that they are sitting pretty with their huge Commons majority is because of the 14 years of equally rubbish “Conservative” misgovernment.
At the end, the voters were almost all desperate to bin the “Conservative” Party. Only 3 people out of every 20 eligible voters voted Con (3 out of every 12 that actually voted).
Both Starmer and ridiculous Ed Davey, the LibDem leader, benefited from the desperate wish of most voters to bin Sunak and his MPs. Starmer and Davey also benefited from the UK’s unjust and illogical FPTP voting system.

Gunnar Lindemann: We demand that American nuclear weapons be immediately withdrawn from Germany pic.twitter.com/D6YQB8p15Z
The USA is using Europe, particularly Poland, the pribaltika, and the UK as a first line of defence in any near-future and massive NATO-Russia conflict. European states should declare neutrality, and remove American bases and weapons.
An extreme example, of course, but even in the Second World War, the German High Command valued the average military units of the combatant nations as follows: every Waffen SS unit was worth 2 ordinary Wehrmacht units, 3 British or Russian units and 5 American ones.
Obviously, there are exceptions the other way. I recall meeting, many years ago, a few Americans from the more elite parts of the US Army and Navy, and they were very different.
The Kiev regime may become more powerful in terms of destructive rocket and drone activity, but the war will be won by the side with the greater number of soldiers, tanks, logistical capability, air power and, yes, rockets and drones.
That would be the Russian side.
The Kiev regime is having to press-gang recruits, and thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands are still trying to leave Ukraine and join the millions of others beyond the borders.
Both the USA and European states such as the UK are funneling money, arms and ammunition to Zelensky’s dictatorship, but with people willing and able to fight, that will not turn the tide of Russian advance. As to the money, well…

“A Southampton pub landlady has spoken about ‘horrendous’ abuse from her ‘bully’ ex-partner – who squeezed her C-section wound days after having their baby.“
[defendant and victim prior to the material events]
“The court heard he had been previously convicted for offences involving Anneliese dating back to June 2020, when he choked, punched and kicked her, as well as damaging property – receiving a suspended sentence.
But things escalated again when she found out she was pregnant with their son in May 2023with his abusive outbursts continuing until two days before she gave birth on November 8 last year.
The court heard he would manipulate Anneliese financially, asking for money for food when he actually wanted to buy drugs and alcohol.
He told her to kill herself while carrying their unborn child and called her ‘worthless’, ‘overweight’ and ‘fat’ after she gave birth, telling her to ‘get to the gym’.
He was arrested on December 1, days after the incident when he squeezed the scar at her home in Romsey on November 28, when one of her friends reported his abuse to the police.
But the court heard he continued to contact her, ignoring his bail conditions – something he denied doing.
Worster pleaded guilty to assault occasioning actual bodily harm, criminal damage, two counts of assault by beating and two counts of common assault.
At his sentencing, Judge Robert Hill, Assistant Judge Advocate General, branded him an “out and out bully who gets violent”.
He was given another suspended sentence: 15-months, suspended for two years, and also handed a six-month restraining order.
But, Anneliese said: “I am just a bit disappointed that it is another suspended sentence. I thought where he had been convicted before it would be maybe a bit worse for him.“

These “people” add nothing positive to our society. They can neither create such a society nor even maintain one created by others; indeed, they cannot even live as parasites (predators and/or scavengers) in a civilized society without degrading it and dragging it down into the mire, into the swamp.
Will they all be fast tracked through the courts and paraded on TV for all to see?
I’ll answer that: NO!
‘Two Tier’ Keir and his two tier judicial system on full display.
“Two-tier” Keir has already “taken the knee” (kow-towed to) the black or non-white mob, along with thick-as-two-short-planks Angela Rayner. The aforesaid mob therefore have no respect either for Starmer (understandably) or for our society; they know they will usually be given a free pass.
I know what I think should be done about this “Labour”-label government but, because Britain is rapidly becoming a multikulti police state, I cannot say so expressly on the blog.
Nope.
I don't think they'll have the police, home office and CPS make glossy videos with dramatic music of their arrests and reveal their names and home addresses either.
We know what England, especially but not exclusively London, is now like. What will it be like in 2034 or 2044, if a proper social-national government cannot take the reins of supreme power?
I want to live in a country where stabbings aren't just a part of the daily news cycle. How did Britain decline so fast?
Ironic that a [person posing as] Prime Minister, “Two-tier” Keir, who has a huge Commons majority, is no more fitted for his rank than were his predecessors: the little Indian money-juggler Sunak, Liz Truss, “Boris”-idiot or Theresa May.

True, but Frost neglects to add that the only reason the British people are now saddled with Starmer is because the “Conservatives” proved themselves utterly useless for 14 years.

Dan Hodges seems to have forgotten (assuming that he ever knew) that, in the Soviet Union, in Stalin’s day and even afterward, ordinary criminals were often treated better than “politicals”.
In any case, the “police state” aspect in question is not Hodges’ “early release” red herring but the incarceration of people for minor disorder, or for tweeting comments etc.
The present UK situation is similar (don’t forget Starmer’s extreme pseudo-socialist ideological background): the real criminals are being released after having served only 40% —with other measures in place, as little as 20%— of their headline sentences, but —by any other name— political, or treated as political, prisoners are being swiftly incarcerated, and are being more harshly sentenced as well.
Incidentally, not only those convicted following the recent protests and/or “riots” (nb. I myself do not consider saying “boo!” to a police riot squad operative, pushing at his plastic shield, looting a sausage-roll shop, or even overturning the odd police car, a “riot” nor indeed a “political protest” as such).
A while ago, I read that a young man had served his entire headline sentence (6 years, I think), having been convicted on one of those trumped-up bs pseudo-“terrorism” charges the UK police and Clown Prosecution Service seem to love today (they often involve an accusation that the accused shared some or another “terrorist” material online, and at the same time owned completely lawful objects such as copies of Mein Kampf or a picture of Hitler; random pieces of circumstantial “evidence” put in to bamboozle a typical low-IQ rubber-stamp “British” jury).
More broadly, the lack of real knowledge of history is widespread now. As G.K. Chesterton said, he feared the uneducated less than he feared the badly-educated.
The “Chaser”, Jenny Ryan [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenny_Ryan], fluffed the question “which of these three was first to be named as Time magazine Man of the Year in 1923?“, the three being Mussolini, Hitler, or Stalin.
I thought Mussolini (because of the October 1922 March on Rome, after which Mussolini became Prime Minister), and that turned out to be the correct answer. However, it occurred to me that there was at least a possibility that the correct answer would be Hitler (because of the Beer Hall Putsch of November 1923).
However, Jenny Ryan, “the Vixen”, thought that Stalin was the right answer, afterwards commenting that she had “thought that Stalin was a much bigger figure back then“, thus showing ignorance of the history of all three countries concerned (Stalin’s more or less supreme power in the Soviet Union only dated from about 1928, though it increased from 1924; in 1923, Lenin was still alive, and the leadership still somewhat collegial). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Stalin#1924%E2%80%931927:_Succeeding_Lenin.
“The Vixen” later made another mistake on the same show, in failing to choose Offa as the answer to a question on Anglo-Saxon history; she chose “Cnut” (Canute), but he was not even an Anglo-Saxon king (though admittedly a king during the Anglo-Saxon period). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offa_of_Mercia; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cnut.
That’s the problem with such quiz shows, esp. The Chase. The “Chasers” and others have memorized lists, and (some) facts, but generally have no real in-depth background. I have noticed that with other Chasers, such as “The Beast”, Mark Labett.

In the end, though, the Starmer-Labour government, for all its “massive majority” triumphalism, only got the votes of 4 people out of every 20 (eligible), 4 out of every 12 people (that voted). Quite a number of even the voters that voted Labour only did so to make sure that the Conservative Party lost the election.
The real support for Labour is about 10% of the population. The real support for the attack on free speech etc is even smaller, only a few percent of the whole population.

Keir Starmer’s failure to protect public safety while targeting social media critics is disgraceful, especially given his long tenure as a prosecutor. His problem is he’s a prosecutor trying to play PM with a lock-'em-up attitude, betraying public trust.
Who would have thought it? Still, no doubt (in the tiny little minds of Starmer, Yvette Cooper, and ludicrous “lord chancellor” Shabana Mahmood) that real criminals doing real crime is the better option, as compared to middle-aged housewives and others being released and then making socio-political remarks on Facebook or Twitter.

The whole thread is worth a look, despite my blog having covered much of the information (though not all), and despite the prolific tweeter “Dr” Louise Raw being a naive “antifa”-supporting (and pro-mass immigration) person who always reminds me of Lenin’s criticism of “left-wing Communism“.
Zoe Gardner is merely an extreme example of the commonly-found pro-migration invasion type who usually lives, it seems, in a leafy area not so much affected by the tsunami of “migration”.
Zoe Gardner has always supported mass immigration into the UK. I also seem to recall her tweeting negatively about me a decade or more ago. She also makes some kind of living out of being pro-immigration.
I am unaware of her provenance, but whatever it may be, she is certainly an enemy of the future of Europe.
She is almost (?) obsessed with the idea that hundreds of millions of backward people have every right to swamp the UK if they so want or decide. No. I resist that evil stupidity, and resist stupid or ill-intentioned enemies of Europe such as Zio Zoe Gardner.
The "average voter" last month voted for Labour (certainly the modal average). You, presumably, voted for Reform. Either you're wrong about their similarity to you or Reform has done an appalling job of attracting voters who agree with them; which is it do you think?
The “Larry the Cat” (Labour propaganda) Twitter/X account is wrong, of course. Out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 refused to vote, 4 voted Labour, 3 voted Conservative, 2 voted Reform UK, 2 voted LibDem, and 1 voted Green, roughly speaking. Hardly a ringing endorsement of Labour, to get 4 voters out of 20, or even out of 12.
Indeed, even the 4 out of 20 (or 4 out of 12) who did vote Labour at GE 2024 mostly did so to make sure that the Conservative Party candidate did not win in that particular seat. I think that the core Labour support was really about 2 out of every 20 eligible voters, not more.
If the voting system continues to be unrepresentative of the votes cast, and if governments continue to rule as if hugely popular, when they are actually very unpopular, disliked and distrusted, there will eventually be an upheaval.
Also, other forms of migration (invasion) are far far higher in the UK as compared to France: “fiancees/fiances”, “students”, “spouses”, “family members”, work visa holders” etc, not forgetting fake “tourists” who arrive for (supposedly) a week or two, then disappear into the black economy. Overall, between 500,000+ and a million and a half a year.

Medvedev: After the Ukrainian attack on Kursk, there will be no negotiations until victory pic.twitter.com/4UrUS1ULrX
Basically, 1,000+ people have now been arrested following the recent protests and connected minor “riots” (or violent outbreaks) here and there.
Many of those people have been charged, and many of those have been remanded in custody, meaning put into prison until trial (which might be as long as a year or more later, unless fast-tracked). Those who have pleaded guilty so far mostly seem to have been imprisoned anyway.
The fact is that many (probably almost all) of those imprisoned, either pending trial or after having pleaded guilty, are not in any way, even in the lay sense, “dangerous”. Many have no previous convictions, and even those who do (and the sentences of which have been reported after guilty pleas) have convictions mainly for non-violent offences (shoplifting, drugs etc).
What Starmer, Yvette Cooper, and (absurdly) Shabana Mahmood, have done is to release known and active criminals early (many non-white, and after they have completed only 40% of their sentences), in order to free up space which is now being used to incarcerate English people who are, almost all, not active criminals.
Those released early under that scheme will, many of them, re-offend within a fairly short space of time, whereas relatively few of those arrested in the aftermath of the recent protests will re-offend at all, ever, and certainly not in terms of violent disorder. That of course applies even more to those arrested/charged/imprisoned because they merely made comments, justified or otherwise, on social media.
It is beginning to look very much as though Starmer, Yvette Cooper, and the ridiculous Shabana Mahmood (currently posing as “Lord Chancellor” and Secretary of State for Justice) have no idea what they are doing. To me, their over-reaction to the recent minor disorders that took place (by English people— those done by Roma Gypsies in Leeds, and Pakistanis in Birmingham etc, have gone largely unpunished) seems much like that of the Queen of Hearts in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland: “Off with their heads!“
[“Off with their heads!“]
Incidentally, was there ever a “Lord Chancellor” and Justice Secretary less qualified? A moot point after some in recent years, I concede. However, Shabana Mahmood is an absurd choice for the role. She was only at the practising Bar for a few months, if that (after a year of pupillage), and then worked as a salaried gopher in a firm of solicitors, and only for a couple of years: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shabana_Mahmood#Early_life_and_career.
Shabana Mahmood’s entire legal career only lasted about 3-4 years.
She was probably appointed to placate the Pakistani Muslim element in the UK.
Pakistanis as such are now about 3% of the population; Muslims as a whole (many of which are also Pakistani but born in the UK) comprise 6% of the UK population now. Both anyway are significant voting blocs, and important in general political terms.
“Nearly early two weeks after its surprise incursion into Russia, Ukraine finds itself struggling to find a balance between seizing territory across the border in Kursk and losing it at the heart of the eastern front in central Donetsk.
On Friday, Ukraine’s commander-in-chief, Oleksandr Syrskyi, claimed advances were being made of up to two miles a day inside Russia, but Moscow’s forces have gained about three miles this month as the Kremlin bets heavily on capturing the hub of Pokrovsk.
In Pokrovsk, meanwhile, officials have stepped up civilian evacuations. Serhiy Dobryak, head of the city military administration, warned that Russian forces had “almost approached” the city and that alarm about its future was growing.
Until a year ago, Pokrovsk was considered safe enough to act as a regional base where journalists and aid workers could stay overnight. Its road and rail connections link the central city of Dnipro with Kramatorsk and Sloviansk. Capturing it would in effect cut the part of Donetsk oblast still in Ukrainian hands in two.
There are persistent rumours that Col Emil Ishkulov, the popular commander of Ukraine’s 80th brigade, now among those involved in the incursion into Kursk, was removed from his position at the end of July because he was opposed to the incursion into Russia – unsure his unit had the strength for the task. At the time, soldiers from the unit issued an unsuccessful public appeal for him to be reinstated.
Sumy, which has a population of about 250,000, has remained busy and lively in the summer heat, though the noise of explosions from Russian glide bombs in the distance stepped up over last week. Its hospitals, though, have been filling up with frontline casualties, and an appeals for blood donations went out to help treat wounded soldiers a week ago. It took an hour for the need to be met.
The city has also received about 4,000 people fleeing the agricultural villages in the area towards the border in the north, many of whom plan to rent apartments.
In the border zone, six miles from the boundary, meanwhile, only a tiny handful of civilians and little functioning infrastructure remain. One shop with smashed windows was still selling groceries, but most places were boarded up. An aid agency, Global Empowerment Mission, supplies nearly 26,000 food rations every month because market supplies are absent, visiting frontline villages every week to distribute to the remaining population.“
[Guardian]
I recently examined this situation on the blog. My thoughts were that either Putin might push the incursion forces back using conventional military means, or blast the entire area from the air, destroying the Kiev-regime forces (as well as any unfortunate Russian and Ukrainian villagers still trying to live there).
Another possibility, less likely, would be a massive bombardment of either Kharkov or Kiev, using bombers and missiles.
Now, I have come to think that there is a fourth possibility, one which has roots in Russian and Soviet history.
When, as Tolstoy put it, in War and Peace, “the forces of Western Europe invaded Russia” in 1812 (the forces commanded by Napoleon were not all French, though about two-thirds were), the strategy adopted by the Russian leadership under Kutuzov, once he was appointed, was to withdraw and withdraw out of reach, while carrying out some limited flanking attacks and what we might now term “special operations”.
According to the preferred strategy, St. Petersburg, the capital, was protected both by troops and by distance, and so was never threatened by the Grande Armee. Moscow, however, was abandoned and set on fire.
Napoleon’s retreat from Moscow was famously disastrous, his armies all but destroyed by attritional flank attacks, cold, lack of food, and by disease.
Of the initial half million men, only about 100,000 made it back to France or other countries.
“On 24 June 1812 and subsequent days, the initial wave of the multinational Grande Armée crossed the Niemen River, marking the entry from the Duchy of Warsaw into Russia.
Employing extensive forced marches, Napoleon rapidly advanced his army of nearly half a million individuals through Western Russia, encompassing present-day Belarus, in a bid to dismantle the disparate Russian forces led by Barclay de Tolly and Pyotr Bagration totaling approximately 180,000–220,000 soldiers at that juncture.[21][22]
Despite losing half of his men within six weeks due to extreme weather conditions, diseases and scarcity of provisions, Napoleon emerged victorious in the Battle of Smolensk. However, the Russian Army, now commanded by Mikhail Kutuzov, opted for a strategic retreat, employing attrition warfare against Napoleon compelling the invaders to rely on an inadequate supply system, incapable of sustaining their vast army in the field.“
[Wikipedia]
In the German invasion and war of 1941-1945, the Wehrmacht advanced to within sight of central Moscow, but were then held and pushed back. Stalin was unwilling to abandon Moscow, the capital, for reasons of morale and administration.
However, elsewhere in European Russia, the Stavka (high command) allowed the Germans to advance and advance into the apparently limitless space (prostor, in the Russian word), as the German supply lines became elongated and eventually unable to supply enough food and ammunition; this came to a head particularly during the battle for Stalingrad.
Reverting to the Kursk situation in 2024, it can be seen that the operation was designed by Zelensky, against the advice of some of his commanders, as a public relations exercise. The suppliers of arms and vast amounts of Western taxpayers’ money had to be shown that the Kiev-regime forces were not beaten. Those forces achieved surprise, and, at first, considerable success.
The Kiev-regime forces were advancing several miles a day in that Kursk border region, but have probably now almost stopped.
Russian forces far to the south, in the Donbass, are advancing 1-3 miles a day, apparently. The Kiev-regime forces are outmannned and outgunned there, a situation made worse by the use of some experienced Ukrainian troops for the Kursk incursion.
What Putin could do (though it might be politically difficult) would be to do little but just about hold the line in the Kursk region, or even fall back on Kursk city (about 30-40 miles from the present front-line), while pounding the Kiev-regime supply lines and rear echelon areas. The Kiev regime forces do not have the manpower or ammunition etc to advance endlessly. Their tide may already have reached its fullest extent.
In other words, Putin could almost let those Kiev-regime forces in the Kursk region “die on the vine”, in MacArthur’s memorable phrase.
Once those Kiev regime forces are stuck in the Kursk region, or have retreated, or are destroyed, those forces will not be able to be deployed, or re-deployed, on the Donbass front. Even now, it looks as though Russian forces will soon split the Kiev-regime forces there into two. Once that results in further crumbling of the front, startling Russian advances may be seen, either in the next few months or next summer. All of Eastern Ukraine may fall to Russian forces in 2025.

Notting Hill Carnival starts in seven days. I hope it’s peaceful and have enjoyed it in the past. But last year the disorder was terrible. 71 knives were recovered and 'one or two firearms'.

The Notting Hill Carnival should never have been allowed in the first place, and should be terminated now but will not be, because the Government is afraid of weeks of rioting and looting by blacks if such a step were to be taken.
I attended that carnival once, out of curiosity. In the early or mid 1980s. Absolutely ghastly. Intolerable noise, mostly from horrible amplified “music”. Intolerable crowds. Also, no way of getting out without walking miles. In the end, I walked all the way back to Little Venice.

So it seems that the “poor and victimized” Jewish couple, supposedly targeted by an American black comedian, then booed out of an Edinburgh Fringe comedy show by the irritated audience, were none other than Mark Lewis, the egregious self-promoting solicitor, and his wife/partner/carer Mandy Blumenthal. They made a big fuss about emigrating to Israel six years ago. They said that Britain was too “antisemitic” for them to remain here, and so were, in effect, getting out while they could.
A pack of lies. They spend quite a bit of time here, and do not seem to feel any obligation to stay and help Israel in its hour of need.
If those tweets by Reginald D. Hunter are true (accurate), that puts another complexion on the “victimized Jewish couple” story as first published and broadcast recently.
First of all, one has to ask why Lewis and his companion went to such a show in the first place, if the comedian, one Reginald D. Hunter, is known for being “antisemitic” (I have to admit that I had never heard of him at all).
What was their motive even for going there if they were aware of the comedian’s expressed views?
It will be remembered by some that Mandy Blumenthal deliberately tried to book passage, quite many years ago, on a Middle Eastern airline operating out of Heathrow, and made it known that she was Jewish (perhaps using her Israeli passport rather than her UK one). Once refused by the airline, a “typical” fuss was made, both at the airport and in the (((Press))), and the airline quickly stumped up, apparently, quite a few thousand pounds by way of “compensation” (to shut her up).
Is this yet another cynical way to get money, this time out of the comedian, the promoter or the theatre? Was the whole thing contrived in advance, like that airline scam, or not? We do not know, and can only try to draw logical conclusions from what we know.
Reading about what the comedian said on stage, it seems that he recognized the “anonymous” Jewish couple of the Press stories, and that that is why he said that he had been “waiting” for Lewis, assuming that it was Lewis, to turn up:
That’s even before one considers the way in which he treated his ex-wife, one-time low-level TV face, and radio voice (now washed-up and over the hill), Caroline Feraday. I have little time for her anyway, so let’s leave that aside for now (she joined with Lewis in abusing me very unpleasantly on Twitter, about 12 years ago, so she deserved to suffer once she married him, in my view).
Sabrina Miller, when a vociferous Jewish girl student at Bristol, found time to defend Jewish-lobby-puppet and then-MP, Ian Austin, who had tweeted that bestiality pornography and other similar material should be decriminalized. Now she is a “journalist” with the Daily Mail.
The Mail might not have the best reputation, but it really should draw the line at contrived “stories” such as this Edinburgh Fringe scam.
Looks to me as though the audience recognized Lewis specifically, and were loudly disapproving for that reason.
As for the comedian, the promoter (if any), and the theatre, they should resist any contrived legal claim that “any” ambulance-chaser might make…
This all makes me feel that “a certain person” was right (about “them”)…
And as you probably know, Sabrina Miller has form: see her role in trying to smear @Tracking_Power (David Miller – no relation) as an antisemite when he was working at Bristol University (claims which were destroyed in court).
There’s an air of unreality to prosecutions designed to nip unrest in the bud by handing down disproportionate sentences. English law, honed over centuries to match punishment to evidence, is misfiring. Many defendants have pled guilty without trial. Cases need testing by juries. https://t.co/ykuP6ExHuX
What does Starmer think those imprisoned protesters, tweeters, Facebook posters feel about the UK government of traitors now? Happy? Angry? Determined?
"More than 1,000 people have been arrested, with almost 600 charged so far. Some of those charged have been children, including two 12-year-old boys, a 13-year-old girl and a 15-year-old boy."
God help John Betjeman, were he still alive. “Come, friendly German bombers, and drop your bombs on Slough“… he would probably be arrested by the “Anti-Terror Command” or other poundshop UK Stasi police, and/or imprisoned for years.

Also look at this nuts analysis from Sky’s Health correspondent. “The health service is our most cherished institution. Very few people would dare to attack it.”

Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose this war.
A poor week. I scored only the same as political journalist John Rentoul— 3/10. I knew only the answers to questions 1, 2, and 5; had I thought a bit more, I should also have recalled no. 9 and no. 10.
Talking point
As David Starkey says, Starmer is (along with others and, particularly but not exclusively, in “the party formerly known as Labour”) attempting to institute a kind of “woke” and multikulti police state.
Where I differ from Starkey is in having no faith in the idea that a different ethos of national identity can suddenly emerge or be fostered, not without a homogenous population. The UK population is going the other way, becoming ever-more heterogenous, and spinning out of control.
I also differ from Starkey in that he thinks, or hopes, that, if he or someone else puts forward a reasoned and reasonable argument, eventually people will accept the propositions put forward. The credo of the traditional or classical academic.
All very well, as far as it goes, but Mao put forward the credo of Realpolitik, that is “political power comes out of the barrel of a gun“.
Not that that I agree wholeheartedly with that Maoist quotation either. The —by any other name— “revolution” in the DDR/East Germany in 1989 was not violent. There were vast, though peaceful, demonstrations in several major DDR cities (Dresden, Leipzig etc). The Lutheran Church was part of all that.
The East German state was still arresting some dissidents even in 1989, but the heart had gone. I recall the strange feeling I had when spending a couple of days in the DDR in 1988. Like a stage set of a state rather than a real one, an impression made stronger by the seemingly almost-depopulated southern parts of East Germany through which I travelled by car. I have blogged once or twice previously about my impressions of the place(s).
As a matter of fact, the slightly contrived “revolutions” of the late 1980s in Romania, Czechoslovakia etc were mainly non-violent, as they were in the pribaltika (Baltic states). I myself saw Czechoslovakia briefly in 1988, just before it all happened, and was in Poland several times in 1988 and 1989.
In Poland, even in 1988, one got the impression that the state there was going through the motions of being a “socialist” state but that, just under the surface, the whole population, pretty much, was “dissident” in one way or another; a kind of vast, non-violent anti-socialist conspiracy of a whole people.
Even in the Soviet Union, a huge “revolution” happened over several years in the late 1980s and early 1990s, mostly though not entirely peaceful, and including (as in Romania and elsewhere) many elements of the socialist-state structure.
Starkey is or was a Conservative, politically. He seems at least slightly taken with Kemi Badenoch and Robert Jenrick. Why? The first is a Nigerian (though born in London) and so, in my opinion, unfitted by that fact alone to be a British political leader, let alone Prime Minister. I have, also, never heard anything worthwhile from her.
Born 1982, qualified late as solicitor, aged 26, but was in legal practice for only about 4 years (with two of the leading American law firms, sequentially; presumably quite junior), and was then (somehow; how?) a director of Christie’s auctioneers (though only until he became an MP a few months later).
Jenrick’s provenance interests me. It also disquiets.
Jenrick, yet another member of Conservative Friends of Israel, is tied up with Jewish businessmen and property-developer sharks, and pushed for the ruination of the small park by the Palace of Westminster by the proposed construction of a hugely-ugly “holocaust” “memorial” and propaganda centre.
In addition, Jenrick ordered, as minister for immigration, murals for children of migrant-invaders to be painted over because the colourful murals might give them pleasure and comfort.
No-one, I think, could accuse me of being either pro-immigration or in favour of granting privileges to migrant-invaders, but that mean-spirited targeting of any small children of such invaders by Jenrick felt morally wrong to me.
Like Starmer, Jenrick is married to a Jewish woman and has had children with her.
Jenrick just feels wrong to me. He’s a bad apple.
As to the Starkey interview, while I can agree with much of what he says there, he is too much in the ivory tower in the end.
Ironically, for someone “cancelled” by the System for making “racist” remarks, he seems to me insufficiently so. How does he imagine this country will recover in the way that he hopes when 20% of the population is already non-European, and with another ~million coming in every year at present? Make that, conservatively, about a 2% increase annually.
It seems to me that Starkey knows in his heart that I am right (even if, as is quite likely, he has never heard of me), but fears to say so; don’t forget that he “apologized” and tried to retract after he was “cancelled”. Never pretend to apologize to either the mob or to “them” (((them))).
The video is worth watching, though.
Further talking points
Good grief.
Listen to that “muppet” (on the second video clip), one Benjamin Butterworth. Complete idiot. Complete traitor to this country’s people and their future, too. Former (?) Chairman of Young Labour (in London). Scribbled a few times for the Guardian some years ago, apparently. https://www.theguardian.com/profile/benjamin-butterworth.
Poor thinking skills. Very poor, in fact. A fanatic, but one with nothing of interest to say. Claims that “legal immigrants” (the vast majority of all immigrants) all “come into the country with a job“. A straight lie. Huge numbers enter as supposed “fiances”, “fiancees”, “spouses”, “students”, “family members”, “asylum seekers” etc; and even those supposedly entering “with a job” (on work visas) are often not bona fide at all.
I fear that much of Starmer’s strongest support comes from semi-educated and anti-British fanatics of that sort.
I rather think that GB News had that Butterworth on because they knew that he would create a kind of petty storm among the discussion panel.

Interesting to note that the msm always applauds “resistance” (including violent “resistance”) in, for example, historically, the Third Reich, the Soviet Union, Italy, Spain, and in various other parts of the world; in South America, even in contemporary North America and Europe, so long as Jews, non-whites, or sometimes Communist partisans, are doing the various forms of “protest”, but as soon as contemporary white people do the same, they must, apparently, be shut down, “cancelled”, even prosecuted and, indeed, even imprisoned. Not even because they have been violent, in fact. Look at Jez Turner, imprisoned for making a speech, Alison Chabloz, for singing satirical songs and posting cartoons; more recently, Sam Melia, for having published stickers the subject-matter of which was not even unlawful.

The only question is whether Putin will simply utilize conventional military methods to push the Kiev-regime forces out of that part of the Kursk region which they have recently invaded, or whether he will do something entirely unexpected by the Western msm, such as use very powerful bombs and missiles (even tactical nuclear ones) to blast clear the whole of the occupied area. There is an outside chance that he might even launch a massive air bombardment on Kharkov or even Kiev.
Whatever the Russian response is, the Kiev-regime forces will be unable to hold the recently-invaded territory. Zelensky himself has admitted as much, though saying that Kiev “is not interested” in doing so. If that is so, why invade that territory in the first place? Clearly, as a public relations exercise to keep Western arms and money flowing in.
Meanwhile, in the Donbass region to the south, Russian forces are steadily advancing at present. About a mile per day. Not spectacular, but the Kiev-regime forces, short of —most of all— soldiers, will have no chance of regaining those areas, or of stopping the Russian advance, all the more so now that some of the better Ukrainian detachments have been re-deployed to assist with the Kursk incursion.

Retired people in Russia now get a pension of about £200 a month. Not much (under Yeltsin, it was only about £25, and not always paid), but it must go quite far in a Siberian village. Milk, tea, bread, flour etc.
It occurs to me that, were the world to be hit by nuclear war, and depending on how severe that would be, people of that type might survive better than those who live, as most of us do, in Western (or Russian) cities, towns, suburbs, or partly-suburbanized countryside.
As someone once said of the Louisiana Cajuns living in and around the Mississippi Delta, “when the rest of the world is starving, these people will still be eating.”

Starmer-Labour is clueless. The time for a National Wealth Fund would have been in the 1970s and onward, using North Sea Oil revenues, but the System parties gave most of the benefit to oil companies and foreign speculators.
Again, clueless. Mad. Crazed. Would-be dictator Yvette Cooper, who is closer to her evil dream than ever before, is even more of a police-statist than Starmer. She must be stopped. Starmer must be stopped.
Already, people who have nothing to do with “terrorism” (even taking the term at face value) are being snooped upon and sometimes raided by the police, under (some of them) their new-ish Stasi-lite grand title of “the Anti-Terror Command”.

That is the sort of thing that happens when the population of a country only takes interest in rubbish such as spectator team sports, the Olympics, similar mass-oriented TV programming etc, and abdicates its citizen-responsibilities, leaving the field to NWO/ZOG puppets posing as “mainstream” politicians. The UK is much the same, as is the USA.

“More than 700 migrants cross the Channel to Britain in a single day.“
[France 24]
700. In a single day. So 700 migrant-invaders, all of which will now “have to be” sheltered, fed, given medical services, provided with cash etc. Call it £20,000 or more each per year, indefinitely. Then add costs of policing, courts, prison etc once some (if only a minority; so be it) start criminal activity. £30,000+ each per year. Overall, in conservative terms, Between £15M and £25M a year. That’s for ONE DAY’S CONTINGENT…
£25M that will now not be spent on British people, for British people’s health, welfare, transport, education, future.
I hate the traitors who enable this, from Starmer and Yvette Cooper (and most other Labour, LibDem and Con MPs) to the narcissistic, smug, allegedly or self-regardingly “well-meaning” idiots who hold up “refugees welcome” signs, tweet virtue-signalling nonsense, or oppose British people protesting about the evil.

Thankfully, the ridiculous Schauspiel for the masses called “the Olympics” largely passed me by (as usual), apart from my having seen video clips and photos of the “Satanic” (?) opening ceremony.
Of course, the “British” msm went crazy because the supposedly Brit team called “Team GB” won a few meaningless medals. Yawn.
The unlucky Ukrainian soldiers used in the Kursk incursion are, like all the Kiev-regime soldiery, being used by Zelensky’s evil regime as cannon-fodder. Dispensable. Many were press-ganged into service. Few if any now are volunteers.
As blogged previously, even were the Kiev regime forces to reach Kursk (city), the centre of the region, their extended lines would be vulnerable to both air (including missile) attack and also to flank attacks by armour and infantry. I also doubt whether the Kiev-regime forces can resupply an extended line of incursion for very long.
So far, it looks as though the forces of the Kiev regime have penetrated to a depth of about 20 miles from the border line.
“The Kursk offensive comes after weeks of Russian advances in the east, where a succession of villages have been captured by the Kremlin’s forces.” [BBC https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/crkm08rv5m0o].
Note that, until now, the “free” UK/US msm has not reported even in passing that the Russian forces are achieving victory in the south-east and east of Ukraine.
The Kiev-regime incursion may have reached a depth of about 30 miles in some areas, such as the Lezhinka area noted in the BBC report, but that is still a long way (maybe 50 miles) from the city of Kursk itself.
Kursk (city) is about 327 miles from Moscow.
The world-conquering armoured and other forces of the German Reich faltered amid the huge empty spaces of (even) European Russia in the early 1940s. How much more pointless and unlikely to succeed is this Kiev-regime incursion, with its unwilling and poorly-trained soldiers?
In the end, were Russian forces to have to fall back to Kursk (city), which I feel is highly unlikely anyway, the Russian “stavka” (high command) could use masses of advanced conventional weapons such as thermobaric missiles and bombs to completely annihilate the Kiev-regime advance.
Actually, I feel sorry for the Ukrainian soldiers (and their families), who are mere pawns in the corrupt evil game of the Jew Zelensky and his Kiev cabal.

“German expert: The maneuver in Kursk could mark the military end of Ukraine “
An attack on the Kursk area could lead to the military end of Ukraine, because its armed forces are inferior to the Russian army.
The Ukrainian brigades deployed in Donbass are quite worn out and were waiting to be replaced by new forces, which are now used to attack Kursk “, said Gustav Gressel in an interview for “Spiegel”.”
Senator Lindsey Graham hinted that Ukraine could attract retired American F-16 pilots, indirectly indicating that there are not enough Ukrainian pilots even for the limited number of F-16s declared for transfer to Kyiv pic.twitter.com/EOlaMcybvF
That Graham idiot is a complete Jewish-lobby/Israel lobby puppet, so his idea is not entirely unexpected.
I doubt that many retirement-age American pilots are desperate enough to want to fly for the Kiev regime, though. Even were the pay to be high, so is the chance of coming back to the USA in a body bag (if the pieces can be found). 20 years in the present version of the Gulag Archipelago is also rather uninviting.
I was slightly acquainted in 1996-1997 with a group of civilian American pilots in Kazakhstan, ex-Eastern Airlines, hired to fly the Kazakh President’s Boeing aircraft. Nice fellows, who had been cheated out of their pension in the U.S., but complete fish out of water in the post-Soviet and Russophone environment of Almaty. They could not even say hello or ask for a cup of coffee, and lived an isolated life in a dacha on the edge of town.

A slow-motion coup has installed multi-cultural socialism in the West. Britain currently is experiencing its own equivalent of the Prague takeover of 1948. The show-trials of Douglas Murray and Elon Musk (if they can apprehend him) will no doubt soon follow. https://t.co/lcSDMs0PL6
— Tom Gallagher NEW book Europe's Leadership Famine (@cultfree54) August 11, 2024
I saw part of Douglas Murray’s interview. Usually I have no time for him, or for any puppets of Israel and the Jewish lobby, but I have to say that I agreed thoroughly with much and indeed most of what I heard.
I can only imagine that Murray said such unambiguous things deliberately in order to throw down the gauntlet to “two-tier Keir”, to provoke his own, Murray’s, arrest, charge, and prosecution, with the idea that a British jury will never convict him. A gamble, but a calculated one.
Of course, a “British jury” may now contain blacks and browns who may not agree with Murray’s views, and let us not pretend that such cases are somehow objective fora searching for truth— they are purely political, just like the joint trial of Nick Griffin and Mark Collett about 20 or so years ago (they were both acquitted, a smack in the mouth the “Clown” Prosecution Service was not expecting).
However, a British jury might well acquit Murray, if he does end up being charged and tried. That would raise his profile immeasurably. Then, in a few years, he might become a Reform UK candidate (as might Matt Goodwin) in circumstances in which the “elected” dictatorship of “two-tier Keir” and his clowns will undoubtedly be extremely unpopular with everyone outside the msm and the Westminster Bubble. In fact, Britain might really be on the brink of revolt by then.
If, on the other hand, Murray is not arrested/charged/prosecuted, then the poundland “tough guy” image “two-tier Keir” has been trying to project over the past 5-7 days crashes and burns. Indeed, if Murray escapes prosecution, many now charged will be able to plead not guilty in the hope that juries will acquit them for reasons as openly political as many of the prosecutions themselves.
Assuming that Murray’s statements were made quite carefully and deliberately, I think that it can be said that he has made a stunning political move.
The legal arguments at any trial would revolve at least partly around the (apparent) fact that the now-famous interview was filmed in the USA, though broadcast or sent to the UK, and aimed mainly at a UK audience.
During the Black Lives Matter rioting and protests, it was considered entirely legitimate to ask what lay behind black anger. But today, it's apparently illegitimate to ask what lies behind white anger. I think many people see the double standard.
I've done a lot of international media this week and I can tell you that when it comes to how the UK is managing free speech much of the world thinks we're going insane. "You're the home of Magna Carta", a journalist just said. "What the hell happened to you?"

What we are now seeing might be described as a struggle between Islamists who want to rule Britain (and mainland Europe), and Jew-Zionists who, partly and perhaps to a large extent, and more quietly [own and] rule Britain and much of the Western world generally.
What is wrong with our civilization can be said with one word — unreality. We are in no danger either from the vices or the virtues of vikings; we are in danger of forgetting all facts, good and bad, in a haze of high-minded phraseology.
My own prediction was, and remains, that Starmer will “solve” the “small boats” problem by setting up some kind of fake “processing” lines in France, and/or elsewhere, then rubberstamping perhaps 90% or even 95% of the applications. That ~90% will then enter the UK “legally” (along with the —ten to twenty times the number— existing “legal” entrants), while the others will still cross the Channel without authorization.
The 1.3M+ figure noted by Matt Goodwin is dwarfed by the c.15M who have arrived “legally” over the past 30 years; also, do not forget the question of births to non-European mothers in the UK. Another form of “migration invasion”.

It is easy to just laugh at nonsense of that sort, but behind all such manifestations is an urge to lead all of society into the abyss. “Anti-sexism”, “anti-racism” etc. Also, generally, the inferior valued above the superior in terms of cultural value. Historical civilizations and cultures, religions, other belief systems. Music too, and visual art.
Some “artists” have made tens of millions, even hundreds of millions from their “art” of that sort. In Britain we have had Damien Hirst (in my opinion, both a con-man and a fake, as well as mentally-unstable: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damien_Hirst) and Tracey Emin (another fake and money-grubber): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracey_Emin.
[“art”]
[“art”]
Incidentally, the above piece of “art” by Tracey Emin was auctioned by Christie’s in 2014 for £2.5M. Do we need any further evidence of the decadence of our society?
The existing System in the UK has lionized “artists” of that sort, not only by selling their “art” for millions, but by awarding them System or Establishment medals or titles: Tracey Emin is now a member of the Royal Academy, and its Professor of Drawing. She was also awarded a CBE and later DBE “for services to art“. You couldn’t make it up.
Having said that, I recall a woman whom I encountered occasionally in the 1980s, and who was awarded an MBE around 2006 or 2007, “for fostering relations with Russia“. From what I heard, mainly carnal ones…
Incidentally, the infamous Tracey Emin Bed “artwork” was bought by (((Charles Saatchi))) for £150,000, then later, eventually, sold, as noted, for £2.5M.
Art covers a wide field, and many forms, but the above examples show a degradation not only of art but also of a whole society.

The Israeli government’s ongoing coup d’etat is not a “judicial overhaul” but a destruction of the country’s rule of law. The Attorney General was verbally attacked during the meeting, and Ben Gvir called for her immediate dismissal. Netanyahu’s hostile takeover of the Civil Service Commission will mean that evert future appointment will be subject to the appointee’s groveling submission to him personally and to the extreme right’s agenda.”

“Sargon of Akkad” (Carl Benjamin) echoing, inter alia, my recent blog posts about the lack of legitimate mandate for Starmer-Labour. As said previously, out of every 20 people eligible to vote at GE 2024, 8 decided not to vote at all, perhaps because no social-national party or movement exists (as yet).
Out of every 20 eligible voters, and out of every 12 voters who voted, only 4 voted Labour (Con 3, Reform UK 2, LibDems 2, Greens 1), in rough terms.
The Starmer-Labour government has no legitimacy, and no mandate.
Well, sad to say, that is nonsense. Human beings cannot live on other planets (the ones we know about) because the atmospheres are poisonous, and because the gravity is either too little or too great (meaning the human body cannot, over time, take the stresses).
There is no soil or water on other known planets which might be available for agriculture.
Other planets in our solar system are either too hot or too cold for human life to survive.
Several known planets are “gas giants”, and have no hard surface on which even to land or locate an artificial colony.
There is no way (short of somehow living in giant glass bubbles) for human beings even to live on the Moon, let alone Mars or Jupiter. There is also no point in human beings living —if they could— on other planets.
This whole idea of interplanetary colonization is a waste of effort. What it comes down to is a few billionaires who, however you look at it, have far too much money, and who are engaged in a puerile competition with each other, the prize seeming to be the status of having been the first to send loads of affluent tourists on joy-trips around the Earth and, eventually, Moon.
Incidentally, using current technology, it would take 200+ days to reach Mars. Jupiter? Between 600 days to get close, but up to 2,000 days to get into Jupiter’s orbit and/or land. So 2-6 years. Uranus? Perhaps 9 years. Neptune? Estimates vary between 9 and 18 years.

The Kursk "raid" is a waste of men, materiel and time. It's a PR stunt.
“The Russian Army has destroyed a column of Ukrainian Armed Forces equipment that broke through in the Kursk region.
The enemy was moving in the Malaya Loknya area – this is approximately 15-20 km from the border.
The equipment stopped, where it was overtaken. The vehicles were destroyed by Ka-52M helicopters, and the infantry in the forest was finished off by artillery.“
The Ukrainian (Kiev regime) advance appears to have no goal other than to reassure the suppliers of money and weapons in the West: “look what we can do!” etc.
The Kiev regime has insufficient men and armour to penetrate Russia more deeply, and it has no supply capability for such a serious operation. The Kiev regime advance will (even taking it at face value) run out of steam and then be unable to resupply its columns.
If the Wehrmacht in the early 1940s found itself lost in the vast prostor (apparently-limitless space) of Russia, how could Zelensky’s pitiful forces do better?
Is the Kiev regime trying to get Russia to use tactical nuclear weapons (either in the field or on Kiev) as a way of dragging NATO into the war directly? Let us hope not.
A 26-year-old man has been sentenced to three years and two months in prison after he pleaded guilty to publishing written material to stir up racial hatred: https://t.co/8fe6PPq9srpic.twitter.com/O1LoHHSTvC
So despite the relatively young age of the defendant, despite the fact that the judge decided not to ask for any pre-sentence reports, and despite the fact that the defendant pleaded guilty, the judge in his wisdom decided to inflict upon the defendant an immediate custodial sentence of no less than 3 years (plus that mean little extra two months). Purely political, emanating from “two-tier Keir”, his recent poundshop-dictatorship speech, and his pathetic “Lord Chancellor” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shabana_Mahmood#Early_life_and_career].
I know nothing about the case or the defendant but, in view of the harsh sentence, frankly my feeling is that he might as well have pleaded not guilty and gone for jury trial. He might have struck lucky.
It occurs to me that the present wave of repression in the UK has, as its psychological foundation, the way in which a medically-camouflaged police state structure of law and regulation was set up during 2020-2021; the years of the “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic. The System was interested to see how craven most people were, meekly giving in to the demand to “wear a mask!” (in some places but not in others), “keep 2 metres apart!” (in some places) and all the other nonsense, such as the crazy and arbitrary “Rule of 6” made up by stupid poseur “Boris” Johnson. All that and, even more Draconian, the “lockdown(s)”.
We saw during the “panicdemic” how the courts at first went along with all the nonsense, though sense generally prevailed later on. As for the police, their behaviour during the “Covid” scam was nothing short of absolutely disgusting. Now look— they are again acting as a poundland KGB or Stasi.

This can only end one way, but under the already -considerable repression in the UK, I cannot specify anything without having to endure —yet again— the boring nuisance of having to talk to police drones at my door (as has happened a number of times in the past decade), and must therefore hope that readers can read between the lines, as in all authoritarian/totalitarian states…
“Britain’s almost 60-year experiment in hate-speech legislation is a warning to the world. We first introduced an offence of ‘inciting racial hatred’ in 1965, in the Race Relations Act. Fast forward to today and we now have laws against ‘incitement to religious hatred’, ‘grossly offensive’ online communications and a police force who routinely harass women for calling men men on the internet. Cops have also taken to quietly recording ‘non-crime hate incidents’ against citizens’ names, when the pesky law gets in the way of their authoritarianism.
The upshot of this is a scale of speech-policing that is surely unprecedented in our history. In 2017, an investigation by The Times found that nine people a day were being arrested for ‘posting allegedly offensive messages online’ – with 3,395 arrested in 2016 alone. Even then, that investigation was limited to one piece of legislation – the Communications Act – and the real number is almost certainly higher, not least because many police forces didn’t respond to the survey. Greg Lukianoff, president of America’s estimable Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, argues that, on the basis of those partial numbers alone, Britain is comfortably locking up more people today for speech crimes than America did during the first Red Scare.
When people think of hate-speech laws they probably imagine some vicious fascist, being dawn-raided for airing toxic, ancient hatreds. There’s still a bit of that. But as those racist rioters remind us, while they are mercifully small in number, censoring racists doesn’t make racists go away – it just forces them to spew their bile out of sight, at the fringes and in fetid echo chambers, where they can’t be clocked or challenged. What’s more, there are many supposed speech criminals who – while offensive to some – are hardly dangerous bigots. There’s Count Dankula, the YouTuber who was convicted in Scotland for making a ‘grossly offensive’ comedy video in which he taught his pug to do a Nazi salute. Feminist Kate Scottow was convicted of causing ‘needless anxiety’ via persistent ‘misgendering’ – thankfully, that one was overturned. Christian street preachers are often arrested by the police for airing their predictably less-than-liberal views on homosexuality and transgenderism. This has been going on for decades now. Indeed, it’s been almost 20 years since Sam Brown, a student at Oxford University, was famously arrested for calling a police horse gay.
More alarmingly, the British state is increasingly taking an interest in things people say in private. There have been a fewcases now in which people in England have been convicted for racist posts made in private WhatsApp groups. In Scotland, the great, sinister innovation of Humza Yousaf’s Hate Crime Act is that it forgoes the usual dwelling defence – a feature of existing hate-speech legislation that prohibits arrest over speech uttered in your own home. Now, any Scottish dinner-table chat could be a crime scene.
Certainly, incitement to violence, true threats and so on are crimes in every civilised society – even in America, where the First Amendment renders any censorship of speech and the press unconstitutional. But ‘incitement to hatred’ and ‘grossly offensive’ speech are different things entirely. One man’s hatred is another man’s passionately held moral conviction. Offence is always in the eye of the beholder. We all think we know hate or offence when we see it, but at the end of the day everyone will draw the line slightly differently. You’re then left with someone having to decide, and nowadays that means someone like Keir Starmer – a man who until about five minutes ago thought it is ‘not right’ to say that only women can have a cervix.“
[Spiked magazine]
Part of all that is also to do with the numbers of people now in the UK who are actually either foreign and born overseas, or foreign, born of foreign parents, but in the UK.
Such people are now often to be found in public sector jobs, having acquired a degree from one of Britain’s new “universities” (with their ingrained “antifascist”-type bias). Police, probation people, civil servants, lawyers, academics, MPs, “journalists” (ill-informed scribblers), TV talking heads etc.
They are the foot-soldiers of the “woke” police state, and have no centuries of freedom of expression, or the struggles for that, to look back upon. They just have no inbred respect for free speech.
Sadly, their numbers now include English/British people as well, many of whom are entirely ignorant of English history, let alone world history, and have no respect for, or even understanding of, freedom of expression, free speech.

Another step on the UK’s road to perdition. Already, almost any criticism or even observation made about Jews, or Jewish behaviour, is likely to be treated as some kind of “hate speech”, either by police and CPS drones, or by the self-appointed defenders of Jewish/Zionist “entitlement”, such as the malicious and so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”].
Already, the laws of the UK are such that almost any leading historical thinkers such as Jesus Christ, St. Paul, Luther, Marx, Nietzsche etc would be prosecuted were they alive and living in contemporary Britain.

There is an historical precedent of sorts for what Starmer etc are doing.
In Stalin’s day, the Soviet criminal legal system regarded ordinary, i.e. real, criminals as “class allies“. They got far more lenient sentences for their crimes of acquisition or violence than either the so-called “former people” (aristocrats and the middle classes), i.e. “class enemies“, usually sentenced for what they were, rather than what they had done, or the political prisoners, the most harshly-treated of all, who were regarded as terrorists, saboteurs, or simple traitors, even if they had done nothing but write a socio-political critique, or even a poem.
Counter-offensive against Russia" – Zelensky's most risky decision, which has been secretly planned for months, Kiev is taking risks with the army and technology, according to The Times of London, citing sources
“Counter-offensive against Russia” – Zelensky’s most risky decision, which has been secretly planned for months, Kiev is taking risks with the army and technology, according to The Times of London, citing sources
Main points from the article citing high sources in Kyiv:
Zelensky pressured the military leadership to start an offensive for months in complete secrecy.
In Kiev, they want to change the narrative that Ukraine is losing the war.
Ukraine would attack Russia even without Western permission.
This is the most risky decision since the beginning of the war, because Moscow will do everything to regain the territories.
The forces allocated for this operation range from 6,000 to 10,000 soldiers (probably more in reality).
The military leadership is ready to risk soldiers and expensive equipment in order to achieve something in this direction.“
As blogged previously, this operation is a propaganda/public relations exercise.
The Kiev regime has no military objective in sight, unless it is to reach Kursk, 77 miles from Sudzha where the front-line seems to be at present.
In the unlikely event that the Kiev-regime forces reach and take Sudzha, and then move up the good-quality 2-lane highway to Kursk, all that will happen will be that those forces will be encircled and destroyed by air as well as armour.
The Kiev regime is running out of soldiers, even recently recruited (pressed into service) ones. It also has no logistics capability to sustain a deep thrust into Russian territory. Russian air power must be all but unchallenged in the Kursk region.
Still there you are. If you allow a sleazy, corrupt, Jewish former TV comedian to pose as President of Ukraine, expect disasters…
In this 2013 video, Nick Griffin asserts that Zionist neocons tried to bribe him in 2007 to drop anti-Semitism and focuse on Muslims. He refused and the Zionists decided to establish their own Zio-friendly far-right in the shape of EDL and Britain First.pic.twitter.com/4ucIZgW59l

The labour leadership is showing itself to have extremely left wing or fascist tendencies in power. They must be removed from office at the earliest opportunity which means in about 4 or 5 years time. Imagine how far they will force the country to move towards 1984 in that time.
There is more than one way of removing a dictatorial regime.

“Former Pentagon Analyst: Ukraine Simply Cannot Win, and F-16s Will Be Destroyed on the Ground
Ukraine and its Western partners have no military strategy in the conflict with Russia, former Pentagon analyst Karen Kwiatkowski notes on Judging Freedom.
According to her, Ukraine is fundamentally incapable of winning — and no F-16s will change that: they will be hit not even in the sky, but at their parking spots.“

Ash Sarkar is put forward as the articulate voice of the (in her case, second-generation) non-European living in the UK. The fact is that, even taking her at face value, she is an example of maybe one out of every hundred if not thousand.
“Out there” on the streets, Britain is becoming a multikulti dustbin, full of those who are not British in any real sense, and not a few who are little more than semi-savages.
Don't believe the hype. Labour is already putting mass immigration on steroids. This is an extreme policy very few people support 👇👇👇https://t.co/bt5seb8wMz
"One after another, self-described “liberals”, “progressives” and even so-called "conservatives" have lined up to declare alternative viewpoints & dissenters be shut down" https://t.co/oA0dZHq2N6
We still need to reckon with the folly of lockdown. The Covid inquiry shows how politicians and experts alike were gripped by 'groupthink'. Too few were willing to question a policy that was bound to cause immeasurable harm, says David Livermore https://t.co/EhvVN01oKB
Not someone in whom I take a great interest, and I only knew of her existence from a relatively few years ago, as far as I can recall. However, she (meaning her life) seems to me to personify certain aspects of what is wrong with this country.
The odd life and downward progress of Katie Price also somewhat reminds me of a far more literate, though I think not very nice person, Jeffrey Bernard, who was once described as “having made a career from writing about dying from cirrhosis“. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Bernard.
Bernard’s Spectator column could be, sometimes, brilliantly funny. More often, it was simply absent, with what became the standard apologia, “Jeffrey Bernard is unwell“, below a substituted piece by someone else.
Incidentally, I once had a copy of the book about him, Just the One (referring to his habit of saying —usually inaccurately— that he had popped into a pub for one drink only). Really funny, though sad too in places.
It becomes ever more obvious that nothing much works properly in the UK, from the prison service to the NHS to the legal system to…well, you name it.
This is really damning. As Leader of the Opposition Starmer took the knee for BLM two days *AFTER* the BLM riot that injured 27 police officers. Talk about #TwoTierKeirhttps://t.co/i3R970BgW6
Great thread. I hadn't realised senior police had a documentary exposing Pakistani-heritage grooming gangs pulled many years ago because they thought it could have led to a backlash from white residents. Sounds pretty two-tier to me. 🔽 https://t.co/9iitb4zD6d
Good grief. That is, apparently, “a senior police officer“…
Britain in 2024…
It all raises questions for policing but also for the mainstream media, political elites and "stakeholders". How many girls might have been saved if this 2004 exposé of grooming gangs hadn't been deliberately ignored due to "far-right"? 👇 #TwoTierBritainhttps://t.co/mEWQry0LnA
Look at recent Sky News and BBC News coverage. Almost like TV news in the old Soviet Union or DDR (East Germany).
“Shadows on the wall of the cave”…
During the Harehills riots the lady offered the police tea & ice lollies. She was then arrested for saying 16 years of immigration had ruined the area.
She describes the dehumanisation of her overnight custody.
As in Stalin’s Soviet Union— people arrested who are genuinely puzzled as to why, saying “why am I here?“, or “I haven’t done anything“, or “what have I done?“
To combat this, retweet the crap out of everything, flood the playing field, make the job of the the thought police an impossible game of whack a mole.
That little Director of Public Prosecutions bastard is a typical police-state drone bureaucrat.
Beyond Orwellian. Simply astonishing. I respect open dictatorships a lot more than the "caress" dictatorships that we now see throughout the West. The former own their autocratic reflex; the latter gang rape you whilst whispering sweet-nothings in your ear. https://t.co/B41WBEmtfc
What happens, and what has happened in history, when every form of peaceful socio-political protest, criticism, or even analysis, is shut down? As people say, “answers on a postcard…”
Reminder the assistant commissioner of the Met would have joined a movement whose goal was to dismantle the police. https://t.co/qbbA13KyBd
Incidentally, many will know of that Basu bastard (now only a former policeman), who is sometimes quoted on TV or in the lying Press as an “expert” on “extremism”, “terrorism” etc, and who, risibly, was apparently the UK’s chief of (police) counter-intelligence. He is often spouting nonsense about how almost everything “far right” etc must be repressed. Another supporter of the upcoming (unless stopped) multikulti “woke” police state.
See also my piece from about 6 years ago about the tendency to a police state in the UK, that even then was coming out into the open:
Quite. Out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 did not vote. Of the 12 that did, 4 voted Labour, 3 Conservative, 2 Reform UK, 2 LibDem, and 1 Green.
The regime of “two-tier Keir” has no legitimacy, no mandate. If the courts and general legal and justice system are not exercizing their proper independence, but are simply obeying the purported diktats of “two-tier Keir” and that bureaucrat-drone who seems to be the new Director of Public Prosecutions, then the courts themselves have no legitimacy.
Good grief. One of the most disturbing things I have ever heard from an MP. Wes Streeting actually detailing how he would push a leading journalist under a train. Was there ever a police investigation? @EssexPoliceUKhttps://t.co/ja8pbvO5Tn
Were I to argue that Wes Streeting (or Starmer, or Yvette Cooper, or other Labour Friends of Israel puppets) should be pushed in front of a train, the police would be (boringly) yet again at my door, no doubt, but once again it is that “two tier” policing…
[Update, 10 August 2024: looks like Allison Pearson may have been prevailed upon to delete her tweet].
As I wonder how many people charged and sentenced by the courts could appeal against their convictions based on what the likes of Streeting, McDonald, Rayner, Philips etc have said…
Starmer has left himself open to challenges to these…
“Two-tier Keir” Starmer is certainly confirming my view of him prior to the recent General Election, ie that he is akin to what Khrushchev said about Malenkov in his memoirs, “a file clerk type; people like that are dangerous if given power.“
Sleazy, racist Labour MP Lauren Edwards joked about William Hague's wife miscarrying their child, and that it "didn't prove he wasn't gay."

The Labour Friends of Israel should watch that.

“Former Israeli Military Intelligence Chief: We Are In A War Of Attrition
Amos Yadlin, the former head of the Israeli regime’s military intelligence directorate, said that Israel will find itself embroiled in a long war of attrition, Israel will continue to have its ruined economy, and our standing in the world will fall to a lower level.“
[in fact, Amos Yadlin, not “Yadin“; a natural mistake for a native Russian-speaker to make]
According to the malicious Jewish-Zionist organization, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], which (as I said during my free speech trial last November) is effectively a volunteer arm of the Israeli Embassy in London, somewhere around 94% of the Jews in the UK consider themselves Zionists, and the vast majority of them support the Israeli attacks on Gaza. Thus says the “CAA” itself.

I can’t stomach these MPs gloating about incredibly young men being locked up for years. These are lads who feel utterly powerless and disenfranchised, raised in a system that’s taught them they have nothing and can never accumulate anything.

During the Black Lives Matter protests, left-wing commentators argued that protest, vandalism, and even violence were necessary to highlight injustice. I disagreed then, and I do now, but where are those voices today?
There IS an obvious injustice: the British working class has been maligned, slandered, ignored, fobbed off, and lied to for a generation. They can’t buy a house, their kids are in overcrowded classrooms, and they watch as illegal migrants get private accommodation for free. How is that not something to be angry about?
Our political class prioritizes everyone else’s interests over theirs. These politicians are clueless about the real struggles these young men face.
Abandoned, left to fend for themselves, and when they finally lash out, we throw away the key. It’s disgraceful. Instead of addressing the root causes of their anger, they fan the flames, and believe me, they’re not alone in their fury.“
Looking at Diana Johnson’s biographical details for the first time, I notice that she was a salaried barrister 1999-2005 at Paddington Law Centre (West London), where I myself did about half a dozen (unpaid) evening sessions in 1993. I lived only a couple of miles away at the time, in Little Venice.
I will go to bed tonight not knowing if I’ll be woken up at 4am by the police arresting me for controversial social media posts.
That’s the reality of the UK.
That is literally where we are at.
America, don’t become what we have become.

Self-identified liberals, Labour voters & Remainers are consistently more likely than conservatives, Tories & Brexiteers to block, unfriend, & be hostile toward those who hold different views. See Values, Voice & Virtue for evidence. Or my debate with David Aaronovitch. Lol. https://t.co/oTZGczWQDJ
