[“NEW POST. I’ve just returned to Britain from Hungary, where I spent a few days giving talks to students, politicians, and members of the public. Whenever you mention Hungary among a certain group in London —think SW1 Westminster, the BBC, Financial Times, Oxbridge—people tend to lose their minds. ‘Hungary!?’ they say, ‘you mean that rather odd country in Eastern Europe that’s very conservative and falling out with everybody in the European Union!?” I first experienced this reaction last summer when, amid the Southport atrocities, I dared to point out that the country I was visiting and which Western elites like to criticise —a very stable, a very secure, and a very peaceful Hungary—looked utterly different to the country I was returning to. Because unlike Hungary, Britain was on fire. Widespread rioting and protests after the Southport atrocity had become an unavoidable symbol of intense public concern about things that are only significant in Hungary because they are absent —mass uncontrolled immigration, broken borders, radical Islamism, Pakistani Muslim rape gangs, and the murder of children by the descendants of recent immigrants. Nonetheless, my mere suggestion that perhaps Hungary has got some things right that Britain has got badly wrong generated an incredibly hostile response from British elites, reflecting an arrogance and snobbishness that is rife among that class. Indeed, for much of the last fifteen years there’s been an assumption among elites in Britain that something has gone ‘badly wrong’ with Hungary. But based on what I witnessed and was asked at events last week, I’m here to tell you that the opposite is true. Because as far as many Hungarians are concerned, it is Britain, it is England, it is us, who got things badly wrong, who made a series of disastrous policy choices they are determined to avoid, and who are, in the words of one person I encountered, “losing our country”.”]

The scamdemic/panicdemic is still accepted by many as something real, rather than a massive hoax which basically temporarily reclassified influenza as “Covid”, and then pretended that a kind of Black Death was stalking Europe, thus opening up (as the WEF —World Economic Forum— crowed at the time) an opportunity for a “Great Reset” of society, including strict controls on free speech, travel etc.
The propaganda around “Covid” bit deep. I still see, years later, the odd loonie wearing the useless cloth facemasks once mandated by ill-intentioned bureaucrats and plotters (such as the infamous Professor Ferguson).
In fact, in the past few weeks, I have seen four such facemask loonies, one a pink-haired, fat, and youngish (twenties/thirties?) woman employee at a Tesco supermarket about 5 miles from my home, a second one also a Tesco employee, though without the coloured hair; the others two very elderly women shopping at the same store.

Kemi Badenoch's defence of Israel's shameful detention and deportation of British MPs is just the latest example of a politician whose real loyalties lie elsewherehttps://t.co/PvSUGRFwkt
Kemi Badenoch may have a British passport but is not really British; she is a Nigerian. Her mother deliberately had her in London so that she, Kemi, would be “entitled” to a British passport (and have the “right” of residence in the UK). Kemi Badenoch was brought up in the USA and Nigeria and did not return to the UK until she was at least 16.
Kemi Badenoch is an African with very shallow roots in the UK, is a puppet of the Jewish/Israel lobby, and believes that only those with significant money should have any rights. Bin her.
Not my opinion alone (though it would not concern me if it were). Opinion polls now have the “Conservative” Party around 20%, which (as far as I know) is the lowest level of support ever.

Of course the two MPs deported from Israel are also not really British…

Trump is promulgating tariffs on imports from a range of countries and blocs presently major trading partners with the USA. Canada and the EU, to name but two. China, too.
As many are pointing out, tariffs reduce trade, because they make imported goods (and/or services) more expensive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff.
Looked at from a different point of view, there are reasons why Trump’s tariff barriers might be positive for the USA, mainly because they might allow American industry, in decline for half a century, to revive.
“The tariff has been used as a political tool to establish an independent nation; for example, the United States Tariff Act of 1789, signed specifically on July 4, was called the “Second Declaration of Independence” by newspapers because it was intended to be the economic means to achieve the political goal of a sovereign and independent United States.[93]“
[Wikipedia].
In the short-term, Trump’s tariff’s may well cause domestic prices (within the USA) to inflate. In the longer-term, however, those tariffs may also create American jobs, and also increase America’s long-term security.
The USA is one of the few economies capable of being an autarky [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autarky]. Others would be Russia and mainland Europe (the EU, presently).
There is little doubt, though, that in those countries that produce items exported to the USA, the Trump tariffs will cause economic damage, possibly severe damage. That in turn will cause political fallout.
The USA is a huge and vibrant economy. If turned inward, that may be able to create the prosperity and job security so lacking at present in many American communities. The USA should have been isolationist in the 1940s and afterwards, as it had been in the 1930s. It seems to me that that would be a good policy now for the USA. Economic isolationism allied to political isolationism.
The USA should build up purely defensive military and naval power, but avoid doing what it has done, particularly, since 1941, i.e. interfere all over the world. If that is done, American security will thereby be increased.

So there it is. The “party formerly known as Conservative” now has a Nigerian woman, married to a banker, as its anointed leader. What a farce.
That contest was between a black (Nigerian) woman, a woman who is a member of Conservative Friends of Israel, on the one side, and a rather unpleasant and corrupt person, member of Conservative Friends of Israel, and married to an American Jewish woman, on the other.
Who really won that contest? Think about it.
Kemi Badenoch is even less (even notionally) “British” than is the egregious “Boris”-idiot. She was born in London, taken within days back to Nigeria, then brought up there and in the USA before returning to the UK at the age of 16.

Rachel Reeves
“Revealed: Rachel Reeves’s £74k rental income.
Rachel Reeves and her husband are making £74,000 a year in rental income alone, The Telegraph understands.
The Chancellor, who this week hit second home buyers and landlords with a surge in stamp duty costs, is thought to be receiving rent from two properties that adds up to more than £6,000 a month.
It comes after Ms Reeves delivered her first Budget on Wednesday, in which she condemned millions of workers to be poorer by raising National Insurance for their employers.
Landlords and second home owners reacted angrily to Ms Reeves’s maiden Budget, claiming she had put the “final nail in the coffin” for the struggling buy-to-let sector.
The Chancellor, who now lives in Downing Street with her family, lets her former family home – a four-bedroom property in south London – for around £3,200 a month.
While her husband Nicholas Joicey, a senior civil servant, is believed to have let his central London two-bed flat since 2011. It now has a market rental value of nearly £3,000 a month, according to property website Bricks&Logic.
It means the pair, who both have six-figure salaries, make more than four times the average landlord income of £16,500. Their rental income is also twice the average salary of nearly £37,000.
Conservative MP Ben Obese-Jecty said: “Having just announced a deeply unpopular Budget that has caused mortgages to rise, how does the Chancellor justify the £74,000 rental income of her and her husband’s London properties whilst living rent-free in Downing Street as their mortgages are paid for? It’s no wonder she abstained from the most recent vote on the Renters’ Rights Bill.
Ms Reeves earns around £160,000 for her roles as Chancellor and an MP. It means her household income, combined with her husband’s salary of up to £174,999, is more than £400,000.
Earlier this year, as shadow chancellor, Ms Reeves told GB News that checking her bank statement made her “wince” after she found “the money coming in” was “increasingly short of the money going out”.
The Chancellor bought her family home in 2012 with her husband for £599,950. The two co-own the property, according to the Land Registry. The couple’s detached property – which was bought with a mortgage – consists of four bedrooms and two bathrooms, according to Rightmove.
Since Ms Reeves bought it, property listing websites estimate it has gained around £349,000 in value – putting its value today at nearly £950,000.
Nine years ago, Ms Reeves had her parliamentary credit card suspended because she owed more than £4,000 in unauthorised payments. The bill was eventually recouped by the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority.
Between 2014 and 2022, she also claimed £1,225 on the taxpayer to pay someone else to help file her tax return.“
[Daily Telegraph]
Rachel Reeves also has other investments. She is a Grade A moneygrasper; also a member of Labour Friends of Israel and a trustee of the Jew-Zionist Auschwitz-Birkenau Foundation.
Rachel Reeves and her husband have a joint salary/investment income (including capital growth) of well over a half-million pounds a year, possibly even a million.

“Inefficient commanders and former ministers must be sent to the front line, and women must be mobilized into the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army , said the head of the Air Reconnaissance Support Center of the Ukrainian Army Maria Berlinskaya. The mobilization of women is an unpopular but necessary decision, she pointed out and stressed that Ukraine “will have to give up” if the mobilization of women does not take place.”
The Kiev regime will have been toppled, or driven over, by this time next year.
If the (?) 10,000 North Korean troops are kept concentrated in a tight, discrete battle-group, they will be able to punch a hole 20 miles wide in the Kiev-regime lines in the Kursk region and behind that, in the Ukraine region bordering Kursk region. To repair that hole, the Kiev-regime will have to transfer forces from elsewhere, maybe even from the Donetsk/Lugansk front, where Russian forces are still steadily advancing.
“The gangs” are not the problem; the problem is that there are literally tens of millions of migrant-invaders en route to the UK, either “illegally” or “legally”. A million a year. Plus births to already-arrived migrants.
Incidentally, the way the UK’s asylum laws were framed, in totally different conditions decades ago, as late ago as the 1950s, there are, in principle, literally hundreds of millions of blacks and browns who might be able to claim asylum. All they have to do is reach our shores…

The thin end of a very big wedge.
The ones in the crowded zone also forced to endure official “campaigns”, Soviet-style, such as “wear a facemask!“
It does occur to me that, with the increasing pressure in the UK on animals, birds, fish, and insects, so many of which are now vulnerable or endangered, one possible answer might be to establish completely rewilded zones, perhaps 5 of them in England, and a smaller number but similar proportion in Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland.
I have not fully thought-out the idea, so these are just stray ideas at present.
Such rewilded zones would go beyond the various existing zone-regimes such as Green Belt, National Park, Site of Special Scientific Interest etc.
The idea would be for such zones to be changed from whatever land use presently exists to a completely wild forest. New building would be banned, and existing housing gradually reduced. There would be no industry and no large-scale agriculture or horticulture.
The above requirements suggest that areas already sparsely-inhabited would be chosen.
As for the size of such rewilded zones, I am thinking in terms of about the same size of circumference as the M25, i.e. the Greater London area. About 5 of those in England, perhaps 2 in Scotland, 1 in Wales and 1 in Northern Ireland.
Traffic would be very restricted over time, roads not open to the public (eventually). The zones to be linked with each other and other countryside areas by the kind of wildlife grid I have proposed over recent years.

“Keir Starmer is looking into plans to process asylum seekers outside the UK as part of a rethink of the government’s immigration policies, even as a returns agreement with the EU appears more distant than ever.
The prime minister said on Thursday he was open to the idea of Britain processing claims offshore, after a day spent discussing illegal migration with fellow European leaders at Blenheim Palace. Those talks, as part of the European Political Community summit, included a meeting with Edi Rama, the Albanian prime minister, whose country processes asylum claims on behalf of Italy.
But he said a deal to return refused asylum seekers to the EU was low on his list of priorities, as the French president, Emmanuel Macron, warned his country was not willing to shoulder the additional burden.
“But look, I’m a practical person. I’m a pragmatist. And I’ve always said we’ll look at what works and where cases can be processed closer to origin, then that is something which of course ought to be looked at.”
[The Guardian]
As I have been predicting for many months on the blog, Starmer will “solve” the “small boats” migration invasion, meaning get it off the TV news agenda, by simply “processing” the applications of the invaders long before they reach the UK, whether that be in France, in Albania, in Italy, or even in Africa.
“Processing” will mean, in this context, rubberstamping 90% or more of the applications. Probably more, looking at how about 80% of the applications of the present wave of invaders are eventually approved once they land in the UK (and the rest not deported anyway).
What about those, the small minority no doubt, who apply for asylum in those extra-territorial processing centres or offices but are refused? Is Starmer pretending that they will be content to stay in, or return to, their native countries? Of course they will not. They will simply make their way to the English Channel and then try to cross it.

Mirabile dictu! Former-MP and Israel-puppet Largan has said something with which I can agree.
I have noted in the past on the blog the inadequacy of so many post-1945 public buildings in the UK, for example the court buildings in both London and the provinces. Some are OK, or even impressive, but more are not. Compare them to most of the American court buildings, such as the Federal court building in Trenton, New Jersey, where I was, several times, over 30 years ago:
So ugly, one is prompted to speculate, “Britischer Architekt?” Still, quite large and impressive at least.
I see that that 1980s building is named after a former Governor of the state, who was also at one time Chief Justice of New Jersey: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_J._Hughes_Justice_Complex#Dedication. I was very slightly acquainted with one of his sons, who himself became a Federal magistrate in 1991, a year or two after I was introduced to him; I met him again, en passant, a few times, in the years 1989-1991: https://www.pli.edu/faculty/hon.-john-j.-hughes-i1305491.

I agree with that “@chelleryn99” tweet.
As with “Boris”-idiot, there is something of the onion, or the matrioshka, about Starmer. Several layers, but nothing (or something quite different and/or alien) at the centre.
Performative Labour tribalist (who however always looks uncomfortable with that), one-time criminal defence barrister turned high-level public prosecution lawyer, the not-quite-true faux-proletarian background (parents not so poor, and who sent him to a partly fee-paying school in a good part of Surrey), the (half-) Polish-Jewish wife, and the children brought up as if fully-Jewish… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_Starmer.
“Lady Starmer is Jewish and Sir Keir has talked about keeping the tradition of family Friday night dinners, where they are often joined by her father for prayers.“
So I suppose that Starmer wears one of those little skullcaps, a yarmulka (I think) on such occasions? Maybe, maybe not. I have not seen anything as to whether all attendees at such dinners do or not. The Jewish prayer part of that paragraph seems to suggest that Starmer does wear such headgear but (needless to say) I have never seen a photo of him wearing it.
“The YouGov/Sky News poll asked this week whether voters thought he would be a good or bad prime minister. Almost half – 47% – said bad. The older the voter, the more pessimistic they are.
Sir Keir is starting from a low base – not as bad as Rishi Sunak, but still bad. By contrast, only 33% said they thought he’d be good.
That level of enthusiasm suggests Sir Keir may not enjoy much of a public opinion honeymoon, just at a point where he is likely to have to start by making difficult decisions, most notably on raising taxes.
One of the themes of this election has been the party’s clarity that while it will promise not to raise income tax, national insurance and corporation tax, no such bar exists on other taxes.“
[Sky News]
He will probably raise the level of VAT. Even a 1% rise would harvest a huge amount of money. Pretty tough on poorer people, though…Maybe an increase in fuel duty, too (sold —or not— to the public as “green”, of course…).
Where is Starmer, ideologically?
“Starmer’s politics have been described as unclear and “hard to define”.[142][143][144] When he was elected as Labour leader, Starmer was widely believed to belong to the soft left of the Labour Party.[145] However, he has since moved to the political centre-ground.[146][147] By the September 2023 shadow cabinet reshuffle, most analysts concluded that Starmer had moved to the right of the party, and had demoted and marginalised those on the soft left, replacing them with Blairites.[148][149][150][128][127]
So, again, Starmer is impossible to pin down. Not socialist, not really even a social-democrat, yet also without any of the respect for private enterprise or private views that one used to see in the “small-c” conservatives.
“In April 2023, Starmer gave an interview to The Economist on defining Starmerism.[152][154] In this interview, two main strands of Starmerism were identified.[154]
The first strand focused on a critique of the British state for being too ineffective and over-centralised. The answer to this critique was to base governance on five main missions to be followed over two terms of government; these missions would determine all government policy.
Boiled down, what that seems to suggest is another Iain Dunce Duncan Smith-style attempt to harry the poor, sick, disabled (and the middle-aged not yet of State Pension age) to poorly-paid work “opportunities”, while cutting back social security “welfare” payments harshly. Also, Starmer will cave in to the any demands of the EU.
There is no obvious suggestion that Starmer and Rachel Reeves are interested in the effect of robotics and AI, which together may destroy existing jobs by the million, thus positing the need for Basic Income.
The last strand featured is as bad, or worse: caving in to the demands of the housebuilding industry.
Starmer will probably allow the large housebuilding companies to spread their expensive but often jerry-built “little boxes, made of ticky-tacky” across the English countryside.
Starmer will no doubt talk about the “housing crisis” but fail to note that most of that is consequential upon the migration invasion (a million or more every year now). Sajid Javid, another pro-Israel puppet (now washed-up politically), also showed himself unwilling to see the facts:
Try 10-15 million (over the past 25 years, including births to immigrants)…
As to the mass immigration influx itself, Starmer-Labour will eventually stop most of the cross-Channel small-boat invasion by the simple expedient of setting up “processing centres” (maybe simple offices) in Northern France. There, the would-be invaders will, almost all of them, have their applications to enter the UK rubber-stamped.
At present, 80% of those arriving here and claiming “asylum” have their applications approved anyway (under a system that was out of date decades ago), so Starmer will simply lower the bar even further so that 90% or 95% are approved (filtering out, it will be claimed, any known criminals or terrorists— all bs of course). The public will then be sedated into complacency— far fewer “small boats” (or invaders ferried in by the RNLI, Navy, Border “Farce” etc) will be seen arriving.
In fact, the more obvious criminal/terrorist invaders will still arrive, using the “small boat” or “back of truck” methods, but the numbers will be only about a twentieth of the number now arriving. As to the rest, armed with their new Starmer-visas, they will just take the ordinary ferries.
Of course, Starmer will not “solve” the migration-invasion crisis, but just cover it up. That is what he does. There is a massive dishonesty lurking in Starmer.
More? “Starmer has pledged to halve the rates of violence against women and girls, halve the rates of serious violent crime, halve the incidents of knife crime, increase confidence in the criminal justice system, and create a ‘Charging Commission’ which would be “tasked with coming up with reforms to reverse the decline in the number of offences being solved”.[190] He has also committed to placing specialist domestic violence workers in the control rooms of every police force responding to 999 calls to support victims of abuse.[191]
After confirming he would not scrap the current two-child benefit cap, Starmer was criticised by many within his own party.[193]“
[Wikipedia]
There is a thread there, a thread of antipathy to civil rights; a thread of authoritarianism .
Remember how Starmer wanted even fiercer, more restrictive, and longer-lasting “lockdowns” during the 2020-2022 currency of the “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic?
My response?
There are times in history when authoritarian government is inescapable; even outright —though temporary— dictatorship. However, that should not be the norm, particularly in a country such as the UK, with its history of gradually-broadening rights and freedoms.
In other words, Starmer is a “chosen” part of the whole NWO/ZOG matrix, and that of course includes the plan to destroy the future of the European peoples, the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.
Starmer may take part in Jewish pre-prandial or post-prandial (?) prayers (as he has stated) but, once again, that seems to be something merely performative with him, he being an atheist anyway.
Foreign policy is easy to predict: Starmer was willing to say that the “Israelis” have every right to shut off even water to the suffering children of Gaza. He is a Jewish-lobby and Israel-lobby puppet. Completely.
Other than that, Starmer will do whatever the “Americans” (the USA’s ruling circles and cabals) want him to do. So… “support” for Israel, “support” (money, arms etc ) for “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) etc.
Incidentally, there is much election bs being talked by Labour Party supporters as to how Labour will be a kinder sort of government than that of Sunak’s clowns. I doubt it. I would not put anyone in charge of such as Rachel Reeves, Yvette Cooper, and the other Labour Friends of Israel types. As to Starmer, his support for Israel cutting off food and even water to the women and children of devastated Gaza shows just how far his much-trumpeted “compassion” goes…
If Starmer is willing to cut off food and water to the suffering civilians of Gaza, what might he be willing to do to the people of the UK?
I see no real centre to Starmer; even his doglike loyalty to Israel and the Jew-Zionist lobby seems performative, yet that is the only thing that seems to mean anything at all to him.
Starmer displays no obvious ideological loyalty (as such), no old-fashioned class-loyalty (to any social class or category), and no religious loyalty (an atheist, presumably originally Church of England).
Who, really, is this?
It is hard, of course, to see evil in someone as dull as Starmer, despite the oft-quoted words of Hannah Arendt about “the banality of evil“. The expectation, I think misguided, is that Evil, whether cosmic or on the mundane plane, will somehow be more interesting than the Good.
Starmer should worry people, not because he has expressed any particularly “evil”, or even “bad” ideas (he even weaselled ab out cutting off water to families in Gaza, tried to evade the question etc), or some kind of (obviously) sinister ideological base, but more because he, like those he gathers closely around him, has no ideas beyond the most shallow. Someone trying to be elected (in effect) as Prime Minister is expected to come up with at least a few ideas, if not a coherent ideology, and Starmer either does not or cannot.
Will Starmer-Labour create a better Britain? No. I see a harsher, more intrusive police state likely to emerge. Mass immigration will continue, perhaps in even greater volume, and our towns and cities will, despite the encroaching police state, become no-go areas policed by even-less responsive paramilitary police.
Economically? A gradual downturn. The spending cuts agenda apparently very likely, combined with the cost of the continuing migration invasion of parasites, as well as the backfire effect of sanctions against Russia will ensure that.
Starmer’s government will, as predicted by Matt Goodwin, become very unpopular very quickly. However, in the absence of any real Opposition in the Commons (the Con —or possibly LibDem— official Opposition, post-GE 2024, may have only about 50 MPs), it may be possible for social nationalism to make real headway outside, in the “real world”.
Election notes
Well, we now know that 4 July 2024 is to be the fateful day. Is it a co-incidence that that is Independence Day in the USA? Does the choice of day have some symbolic, even occultic, significance? Maybe not, but there seems to be no obvious reason for that day to be the day.
Exactly 5 weeks from today.

Note the huge Lab majority, and the fact that the Cons are not even shown as the official Opposition (LibDems, incredibly). Also, the SNP predicted to lose three-quarters of their 2019 seats.

Once that 7% figure drops to 1% or 2%, maybe by 2040, South Africa will go the way of the Congo, Nigeria, Zimbabwe etc.

SNP: "We believe decisions about Scotland should be made in Scotland by people who live in Scotland"*

Ha. Quite. Scotland, were it to vote for the SNP’s faux-“Independence”, would not be governed by Westminster, true, but it would be governed by the EU, by American or NWO/ZOG influence (NATO etc), by the international banking system etc, and domestically probably by a Pakistani “Scotsman”. Who are the SNP trying to fool? The Scottish people, I suppose.
I see that the SNP is now predicted to win as few as 12 seats (out of 57) this year, from 48 (out of 59) won in 2019. I think that the SNP has had its day as an overwhelming force in Scotland. In 2015, it suddenly shot into prominence with 56 out of 59 Scottish Westminster seats, but the last 9 years have been riven with scandal and underperformance. Above all, not only has Independence not happened, fewer Scots now support it than did a decade ago; it is a minority cause.

“BREAKING | The new Dutch cabinet just nominated top justice ministry official and former intelligence chief Dick Schoof as the “preferred candidate” for Prime Ministership. And the situation is bad. Real bad.
Dick Schoof – or “Mr. Deepstate” as I’d like to call him – is the former head of the Dutch Intelligence and Security Service (AIVD) as well as the former national coordinator of the counter-terrorism unit (NCTV) which is known to focus on combatting “anti-government extremism”. As if that isn’t bad enough, he was also: – behind the Dutch covid regime – involved in the Trump-Russia hoax – behind the cover-up of flight MH17 reports – spying on Dutch citizens here on@X with fake accounts operated by the government.
He’s currently the secretary-general at the Ministry of Justice and Security, which makes him the highest ranking civil servant. He’s quite literally the personification of a technocratic bureaucrat and, – being a former member of the Dutch Labour party – the exact opposite of what the Dutch population has voted for during the elections last November.
@geertwilderspvv should have never given up his rightful claim to Prime Ministership. With a man like this leading the country I’m sure the digital surveillance state we’ve been warning for all these years will be here sooner than expected.”

Late music
The later depth is not there so much, but these were pieces written by a boy of 15, amazingly enough.
Well, this week brings another victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored, he says, “4.5/10”. I managed 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 4, 6, and 7.
“A dispute over a 97-year-old woman feeding birds in her back garden has escalated with the ‘bullying’ council now threatening a £2,500 fine or even court action to force her and her son out of their privately-owned home.
Retired music teacher Anne Seago enjoys the simple pleasure of watching from her conservatory as sparrows and robins feed off seeds on her bird table.
A complaint from a neighbour that she was attracting pigeons and seagulls prompted the council to issue a ‘written warning’ last November and threaten a £100 fine if the ‘anti-social behaviour’ doesn’t cease.
Now, amid claims the birds are still being fed, Fylde Council has issued her son Alan, 77, who lives with her, with another written warning. This time he is being threatened with a Community Protection Notice (CPN) and a potential fine of £2,500 for ‘non-compliance’ if the ‘anti-social behaviour’ doesn’t stop immediately.
And in a further threat the council’s environmental health department has warned it could take legal action for a ‘Civil Injunction and/or a Premises Closure Order’, that if granted by magistrates could ultimately force them out of their house in Staining, near Blackpool, for up to three months.
The officers even instructed the Seagos to take down the ‘I love’ birds notice on their window (above) in case it upset the neighbour.“
“Poland’s Prime Minister, Donald Tusk said: ‘I don’t want to scare anyone, but war is no longer a concept from the past. It’s real and it started over two years ago. We are living in the most critical moment since the end of the Second World War‘.”
[Daily Mail]
Tusk is a brainless drone, a complete puppet of NWO/ZOG. A year ago, he was predicting that Ukraine (the Kiev regime) would “defeat Russia“, and then go on to join both NATO and the EU. How is that going?…
As for war with Russia, certain powerful groups or cabals in the West are really pushing for it; the drift to war is almost entirely being driven by those groups, not by Putin, not by Russia.
An almighty war would be disastrous for Europe and the European peoples. Maybe that is why the “usual suspects” and their puppets keep pushing for one…

First Matthew Parris wants to crack down on disability benefits. Now he addresses assisted dying saying old & frail people are a burden on society. Until social care & palliative care are available to everybody at a certain level, insensitive talk like this is really frightening. pic.twitter.com/GeqA5FuJe5
People say that it does not matter what a person’s private life, sexuality, even beliefs etc may be. Only their specific ideas matter. Easy to agree with that, superficially, but it is facile in more ways than one.
Matthew Parris is typical, in a way, of the faux-“caring sharing” “Cameroon” fake “Conservatism” of the past few decades; post-Thatcherite, espousing a neo-Spartanism for the poorer part of society, and a freedom-from-responsibility ethos for the affluent and wealthy, all disguised by the said fake “caring”.
Often, though certainly not always, publicized in newspapers, and in magazines such as the Spectator, and often by affluent metropolitan gays such as Parris himself.
That kind of “Conservatism” is the polar opposite of the paternalism which characterized at least part of the old and now long-gone Conservatism.
Mrs Thatcher may now be thought of as the standard-bearer of the new pseudo-libertarian “Conservatism”, but she herself, in office, was more a product of the old order, and vacillated between the two camps, for all her expressed adherence to Hayek etc.
The tweeter cited above is right. Parris is shown, not for the first time, as someone who basically knows the price of everything and the value of nothing. His notorious column about “left-behind” areas, such as Clacton, set the tone.
Not that I disagree with all that Parris has written, such as when his column opined thus: “In May 2021, Parris called for the removal of ethnic minority status from Gypsy, Roma and Travellers, describing them “not a race, but a doomed mindset” and called for “a gradual but relentless squeeze on anyone who tries without permission to park their home on public property or the property of others” [Wikipedia].
I agree with those words, though the Irish “travellers” are not the same actual group as the various kinds of ethnic “gypsies” in the UK and mainland Europe (etc). “Travellers” of Irish origin are not an ethnic minority; the Roma, Sinta etc are.
I also agree with his view of sinister clown “Boris” Johnson: “In June 2020 Parris wrote an excoriating article on Boris Johnson saying, “He never had any judgment or strategic vision. Mr Johnson was only ever a shallow opportunist with a minor talent to amuse” [Wikipedia].
What I find disturbing about, not only Parris but also that whole strain of post-Thatcherite “Conservatism”, discounting its pseudo-“caring” camouflage, is its un-Christian, un-spiritual “throwing under a bus” of those (the old, sick, and poor) who cannot keep pace with his preferred metro-affluent new order. It reminds me, more than anything, of Stalinism, in terms of its arrogant brutality. There is something dystopian about it all. Parris himself is an atheist.
In 1984 Matthew Parris said £26 a week in benefits was ample. He tried it, the wimp ended up crying on his bed in his Newcastle bedsit unable to cope. Why doesn't "£100,000 pa. Isn't a huge salary" HUNT try the same thing. Odious twat. pic.twitter.com/cjR8EJQQnR

If a multicultural and diverse liberal society requires an authoritarian police state to function then it isn’t worth having to begin with.
Deportions and repatriation aren't enough, there's a substantial white population that should be permanently exiled to Africa to benefit from diversity there.
Historical facts not much noted by the general public include the largely Jewish character of the second, Marxist-Leninist, “Russian” Revolution (coup d’etat) of 1917, the largely Jewish nature of the Soviet security apparat from 1917 through to the late 1940s, but also the pushback against that in the Soviet Union itself, starting in the Second World War but particularly from time of the postwar purge of 1948-49 and on to 1953-1956, after the death of Stalin.

“Russian troops stormed another Ukrainian Armed Forces stronghold near Avdeevka. After clearing the positions, it turned out that instead of ordinary military personnel, this fortification was defended by soldiers of the presidential brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine named after. Bogdan Khmelnitsky (military unit A-0222). Part of the Ukrainian military was destroyed during the assault, four chose life and surrendered.“
The Kiev regime is running out of soldiers, and especially willing soldiers. There may be a real breakthrough across the front in 2024, with wide advances by both Russian armour and Russian infantry.

Disgraced cartoonist who sparked outrage for Netanyahu cartoon charges £75,000 for paintings https://t.co/PJq8lGsm8F
It’s funny how Jews so often refer to “antisemites” or alleged “antisemites” as “disgraced“, merely because Jews have plotted to remove them from a job or profession, and have done so. I have noted the fact numerous times. I myself am usually referred to by Jews on Twitter/X etc as “disbarred and disgraced“
Disbarred (though actually both wrongfully and unlawfully)— yes; “disgraced“— no…
The Kaffir Brigade? Ha. Had never heard of that one. Unfortunate name…
According to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, three months of hostilities waged by the Israeli army have proven that the tunnels in Gaza are not going anywhere, and the process of their complete destruction and liquidation will not be successful.
“According to the Israeli newspaper Haaretz, three months of hostilities waged by the Israeli army have proven that the tunnels in Gaza are not going anywhere, and the process of their complete destruction and liquidation will not be successful.
Israeli army officials are exchanging ideas that the network of tunnels in the Gaza Strip is much larger and more extensive than they initially expected.
It is noted that despite deep differences, Hamas and Israel are more than ever ready to negotiate on general issues of a possible agreement.”
Interesting (about the tunnel network).
The harsh civil war in Uruguay in the 1960s and 1970s involved tunnels dug by the Tupamaros rebels, mainly in Montevideo: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupamaros.

Whatever the original rights and wrongs of the Israel/Palestine situation going back to the 1940s and before, and of the events of October 2024, the fact is that the Israeli state and its worldwide web have become threats to world order. The world has allowed the birth and development of a monster.

A '15 minute neighbourhood' is one in which all essential amenities are within a 15 minute walk for everyone living in the area – and most Britons (62%) support their area becoming one (including 57% of Tory and 73% of Labour voters) pic.twitter.com/MhZ18w7ivM
Out of 5 or 6 polling organizations, the highest Labour mark at present is 47%, the lowest 43%; the highest Con mark is 30%, the lowest 24%. LibDems are in the 9%-13% area.
One usually expects a narrowing of the polls prior to a General Election, and there is still maybe as long as 14 months to go before the 2024 General Election, but there is no sign of Con Party revival so far. In fact, the empty conference hall at Manchester is symbolic of what is happening in the country. Even dyed-in-the-wool Conservative voters are deserting, I believe. They are not going to Labour, most of them, but are either going to protest-vote via Reform Party or the LibDems, or simply abstain.
As for Con Party MPs, many are deserting the sinking ship. There is no unity. Even Suella Braverman’s attempt to capture the populist vote has foundered. Useless former Home Secretary (and Israeli agent of influence) Priti Patel has criticized Suella Braverman, as has the Indian money-juggler himself (Sunak).
At the moment, it looks as if Labour will win a huge victory by default. That might change, but how?
A fascinating fact about the discovery of insulin involves the critical contribution of James Collip. While Frederick Banting and Charles Best were instrumental in the initial experiments, it was James Collip who played a pivotal role in refining and purifying the insulin extract… pic.twitter.com/EByQTd7GxQ
“There was once a time when being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes was a death sentence. The ancient Egyptians first described the disease more than 3,000 years ago. During the many centuries that followed, parents would helplessly watch as their diabetic children slipped into comas and died.
By the 18th century, doctors discovered that a heavily modified diet could slow the disease. Many children were placed on starvation diets with limited carbs, which helped prolong their lives. However, such treatments were not very effective, and some children even starved to death. Fast forward to 1922, when a group of scientists went to the Toronto General Hospital, where diabetic children were kept in wards, often 50 or more at a time. Most of them were comatose and dying from diabetes. These children were in their deathbeds.
The scientists moved swiftly and proceeded to inject each of them with a new purified extract of insulin that they were able to successfully isolate. As they began to inject the last comatose child, the first one that was injected began to wake up. Soon, all the children in the room began to wake up—one by one!
The scientists responsible for saving the children’s lives were Frederick Banting and Charles Best. They both agreed that it would be unethical to profit from a discovery that could potentially save millions of lives. They sold the insulin patent to the University of Toronto for $1. “Insulin belongs to the world, not me,” said Banting.“
Not only talented but also extremely altruistic.
I have to admit that, were I in their position, I might have kept the patent for my lifetime, and used the proceeds for my own humanitarian and conservation projects. They decided otherwise, as did another brilliant person, Tim Berners-Lee, the main force behind the World Wide Web.
A wonderful ending, but that poor cat lived as a stray for so many years😢. It also shows how important microchipping is 💜

Free speech isn’t a spectrum.
You either believe in it or you don’t.
The cost of free speech is that there will always be people who say mean things you don’t like.
The answer to this is to grow a thicker skin and turn the other cheek.
