“You carry in your blood the holy inheritance of your fathers and forefathers. You do not know those who have vanished in endless ranks into the darkness of the past. But they all live in you and walk in your blood upon the earth that consumed them in battle and toil and in which their bodies have long decayed.
Your blood is therefore something holy. In it your parents gave you not only a body, but your nature. To deny your blood is to deny yourself. No one canchange it. But each decides to grow the good that one has inherited and suppress the bad. Each is also given will and courage.
You do not have only the right, but also the duty to pass your blood on to your children, for you are a member of the chain of generations that reaches from the past into eternity, and this link of the chain that you represent must do its part so that the chain is never broken.
But if your blood has traits that will make your children unhappy and burdens to the state, then you have the heroic duty to be the last. The blood is the carrier of life. You carry in it the secret of creation itself. Your blood is holy, for in it God’s will lives.”

True, the slogan was vulgar, but not such as to constitute an offence such as “insulting behaviour”, particularly as it was presumably not meant to cause distress etc to Boris Johnson (who was in any case not present!). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intentional_harassment,_alarm_or_distress
When I had a Twitter account, Eric Joyce, then still an MP, was rather rude to me once or twice. On another occasion, his wife or fiancee (I think the latter), the newspaper scribbler and novelist India Knight, was also rather rude to me, in her case in a very condescending way. My tweet was about MPs who cheat and freeload on the expenses system. At the time, I had no idea that Joyce was one of the worst of such embezzlers, nor that India Knight was living with him (or vice versa).
Well, I suppose one should not kick people when they are down. What I wonder is what drove someone who was once an officer, and later an MP, to do such a nasty and stupid thing (I mean his latest offence).
I had thought that Joyce had been an officer in the Black Watch. In fact, he was a private soldier at first, and his commission was in the Educational Corps: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eric_Joyce. He was asked to resign his commission in 1999, having engaged in public politics contrary to Queen’s Regulations. He became an MP in 2000, having been employed in the interim period at the Commission for Racial Equality. Black mark…
That is just abuse @deb_cohen, which has nothing to do with the point under discussion. You’re supposed to be a professional specialist, but you badly misread my tweet, then, when your error was pointed out, chose not to admit it but switched to personal rudeness. Not very good. https://t.co/hkbDhr1AWP
I am just sick of the bloody BBC: entitled, biased, a government mouthpiece, with terrible standards in recent years, an ideology of treachery etc. The BBC management even had to ask staff not to wear their “Black Lives Matter” badges (!) on air! They’re all just a bunch of traitors. Many are (((you know who))), too…
Twitter just suspended 50+ accounts for violating TOS around white nationalism & hate speech.
Among those who were suspended was Martin Sellner, the leader of Austria's Identitarian Movement, as well as members of Generation Identity.https://t.co/amJctzpkXe
The purge on dissent, and on free speech, continues. Once all peaceful means of socio-political expression are cut off, what, I wonder, will the people of Europe then do? Those who clap the campaign of repression may find themselves in a bad place, somewhere down the line…
@jamesd03433770.No, they are not. Despite an admitted blunder over care homes, similar to that in the UK, Sweden’s deaths per million are below the levels of several countries, including the U.K., which had severe shutdowns. Easy to check. https://t.co/s1N8K1j7zI
I was going to talk about the mob rule which is being nourished and encouraged in the UK, but I have already said a lot about that (yesterday and also the day before), so I am going to talk about something else.
Several years ago, there was a plague of flying ants where I lived. They were the kind of fairly large insects that seem to emerge from cracks in walls etc, crawl for a while, then later take to the air. They bite (or sting) too, sometimes. They bit or stung our cats, I seem to remember.
There were, at first, thousands of them. An army of insects.
I hate killing things, for ethical or spiritual reasons, and also because I am not by nature violent, callous, cruel or bloodthirsty.
Had there been some way of capturing, and later releasing, the insects, I should have taken that path. As it was, there was no alternative. They had to go. They had to be eliminated. They were. It was not pleasant, but it had to be done. It was done. My modest residence was saved from being taken over by the creatures.
Well, there it is. An anecdote, perhaps not very interesting, but one which I wanted to relate, because those events happened at this time of year.
I suppose that those events were in my mind because of that, meaning because they happened at the same time of year, in early Summer…
More censorship…
“ Little Britain has been removed from Netflix, BBC iPlayer and BritBox amid concerns that the use of blackface characters on the series is no longer acceptable.” [Daily Mail]
I am not very familiar with Little Britain, mainly because I was living mostly in France when it was popular on TV (also because I am not a big watcher of comedy), but there is nothing wrong with so-called “blackface” anyway!
Where will this self-flagellating nonsense end?
Something like The Black and White Minstrel Show is now regarded as bad or even evil! In fact, it is just lighthearted entertainment. It might not be my own favourite kind of TV show, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with it!
This is not an isolated act. It is part of a global plot by sinister forces:
“I’m going to bring down the U.S.A. by funding B.L.M. We’ll put them into a mental trap & make them blame the white people. The B.L.M. community is the easiest to manipulate.” – George Soros, September 2014.
Now add to that “and subvert the cultural and historical foundations of their society...” (and, in the UK, the police force!)
Coronavirus
At last, some reality from a Government spokesperson: “a child has as much chance of dying from Coronavirus as of being struck by lightning.” Quite. Until now, there has been the lie officially spread that “everyone can get it”, which, though true in itself, is disingenuous, inasmuch as a child certainly might get infected but if so will almost certainly be entirely unaware of it, completely asymptomatic, whereas a 90-year-old has at least some chance of requiring hospital treatment and possibly even dying, especially if he or she has “co-morbidities” (other health problems).
Bristolian and other statues
In fact, I do have one thing to add.
Happened to see a brief minute or two of some dim black woman, apparently the founder of “Black Lives Matter” in the UK, being interviewed by Kay Burley on Sky News this morning. It was asked as to whether she thought that it would be OK to leave controversial statues but put an explanatory plaque nearby. The black woman answered that it might be better to remove the statues but still have a plaque. So have a plaque explaining a statue which is not even there…
When you see many black people interviewed, or just talking, you realize why black-ruled countries are always in a state of complete chaos. They just cannot organize their thoughts properly, in almost all cases.
So the censorship gathers pace. Superficially, the discontent of some blacks may seem to be at the root of it, but in reality the Jewish element, or part of it, is behind this.
If you still think the government or its cowardly bully cops are on our side in the ongoing anti-British revolution, take a look at this last night:
House of Commons minute's silence for George Floyd.
'Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost'. The New Statesman (!) finally says about universities ( and exam inflation in general) what I have been saying for decades, and have been denounced as a reactionary brute for saying: https://t.co/pmlGQwoFF6
“This summer, a department at the University of Sheffield sent an email to students. A group of them had complained about their marks for an end-of-year essay. While a few had received Firsts, these students were given 2:2s and Thirds. “Thank you for raising the issue,” began the email, “and thank you also for your patience.” After reflection, the head of department and the director of “learning and teaching” had decided that, “our normal procedures… failed us. For this we apologise unreservedly”. The department had decided to “uplift all the marks… less at the top and more at the bottom”. The poorly performing students had their marks raised by nearly 40 per cent. The few who had done well saw their marks barely change. “Again, our apologies,” the message concluded, “but we hope that this is a satisfactory resolution.”
What happened at Sheffield is one part of a national story: the great university con…” [The New Statesman]
Well worth reading. This has been a developing scandal for over 20 years, if not 30 years. Huge numbers going to “uni” (often to the Uni of Nowhere), racking up student debt which will, in most cases, never be repaid, wasting national economic resources, the proud graduates then often being unable to find jobs beyond the most basic.
“The proportion of students getting “good honours” – a First or 2:1 – has leapt from 47 to 79 per cent: at 13 universities, more than 90 per cent of students were given at least a 2:1 last year. And Oxbridge is leading the charge: 96 to 99 per cent of its English, history and languages students get “good honours”.“[The New Statesman]
Those are inflated grades fromalready-inflated grades. As recently as the 1980s, it was the norm for most students to get a 2:2. Tony Blair did…
Among the most culpable? Tony and indeed Cherie Blair, who promoted all this by making it easy to get McDegrees.
“This supposed university miracle can only have happened in one of three ways. The first is that schools have, over the past 30 years, supplied universities with students of a far higher calibre than in the recent past. This would be a notable achievement, as the university students of the past were the select few –In the 1970s and 1980s between 8 and 19 per cent of young British adults went on to higher education, whereas 50 per cent now do. The second is that universities have taken historically indifferent students and turned them into unusually capable graduates. And the third is the reality: the university miracle is a mirage.” [The New Statesman]
And see here:
“As schools have become ever more rigid and exam-driven, the contagion has spread. As one Russell Group professor, wary of being named, puts it: “In schools now, students are being virtually spoon-fed, and that is feeding through.”
“Students are not taught to read, quickly and critically, and to communicate their ideas,” seconds Jones. “These most fundamental things are not being taught in schools. When we ask them to write, they are incredibly disorientated. And the students who are prepared are incredibly frustrated.” [The New Statesman]
and
““Ideas that students readily understood ten to 15 years ago, they struggle to understand today,” Peter Dorey, professor of British politics at the University of Cardiff, told the Commons inquiry in 2009. “Many of them are semi-literate.” Dorey described seminars in which students sat listlessly, waiting to be told how to “pass our exams”. “They will brazenly admit to having read nothing…” [The New Statesman]
You see that on Twitter, in the outpourings of the younger “journalists” even in mainstream newspapers, on TV too and in the legal profession as well: people unable to think, who just want to be told, for example, “This is Good, That is Bad, and Ian Millard is a ‘Neo-Nazi’ who (therefore…) is Very Bad.” And so on. I noticed it after I was disbarred for socio-political reasons in 2016: the tweets from ignorant little law student and pupil-barrister wannabees, all wanting to be seen to be condemning me. In fact, all that they have done is to condemn themselves.
“According to their study, one in five graduates in England could not handle literacy tasks more complicated than understanding the instructions on a packet of aspirin, while the numeracy level of 28 per cent was limited to estimating the fuel left on a petrol gauge.” [The New Statesman]
I doubt that this terrible situation will be sorted out any time soon. It suits too many people:
the students (“she is a straight-A student who got a First from Oxford”…not so impressive when you know that 50% of all the students get “Firsts” and 95%+ get either Firsts or Upper Seconds…) (and I deplore the “straight-A” Americanism, but that too is legion, now);
the parents;
the schools from which the students have come (“X% of our students go on to university”…);
the universities themselves (which can —and do— pretend that their results and standards are ever-improving);
the government (“our policies are working in education! 101% of students are now getting First-class degrees!”…etc).
Scandal, and the country is the poorer for it.
Aye @BenIrvineAuthor and where are most supposed 'conservatives' now it is clear that Johnson made a disastrous mistake? Still sipping Waitrose Chablis in their gardens, giggling. Yet the real character of the mistake, making possibe an actual revolution, grows clearer by the day https://t.co/G8gauT4YFY

I see that Rory Stewart is trending on Twitter (not that that means much). I blogged about him over a year ago. I started off rather impressed, but (see all the updates) my view of Stewart became less and less approving the more I discovered about him. Read below about the journey on which I embarked:
I said most of what I wanted to say yesterday. However, in the noise and hullabaloo around the events of the weekend, what seems to have been overlooked is that the mob now has the bit between its teeth. The craven inaction of the police in Bristol will have emboldened the mob, now that no arrests were made, none of the mob tasered, or shot, or even hit over the head by the odd police baton.
I saw tweets to the effect of “it had to be done. We had debated and discussed this for years to no effect.” In other words, “we tried argument and local political action, but we did not get what we want. So we took direct action and now we have what we want.“
This is a further step towards the race/culture war which is coming.
The other aspect that has struck me since the oddly-publicized death of the black man in Minnesota has been the relentless and generally biased msm campaign. Every mass media drone from James Corden to Piers Morgan has been getting in on the action. Even the Royal Mulatta has tried to horn in. At least when Greta Garbo said “I vant to be alone”, she meant it!
Once the British people see that the police are not protecting them, and not protecting even significant parts of the established society (which a statue in a public place is), it is but a small step to seeing the police as irrelevant or even as an enemy contingent.
Lee Rigby was horrifically murdered by two black men. I don’t remember any celebrities voicing outrage. I don’t remember any demonstrations. All I remember is subdued reporting- move along, nothing to see here.

In fact, Belarus is not the terrible place about which the msm bleats, when it does not ignore it. For a part of Europe that has always been rather poor, it has at least avoided migration-invasion and cultural evil.
A different kind of government might have taken the opportunity, with all those enemies of Western culture and civilization gathered together, to…(well, you get my meaning…).
I wonder what the real reason is for crashing the World's economy and putting us under house arrest 🤔
You miss the point @strawka.The point is that these facts do not justify the unprecedented quarantining of the well, mass house arrest or the throttling of the economy. Targeted protection would have left you safer. It is the crazy policy of shutdown that has hit the care homes. https://t.co/R49ihXeQXr
Know the “wrong” (i.e. targeted by the NWO/ZOG State) people, send “a few images” from National Geographic etc to your friends, collect a small amount of “Nazi” memorabilia and/or a few unusable knives or swords, or cushions featuring Swastika motifs, or make a few jokes about untermenschen, do a few unapproved political things in public, and you may well end up getting sent to prison, in our warped 2020 UK; but mobs of blacks, browns, white traitors and “antifa” thugs can roam through the streets of London, Bristol etc, topple historic statues and chuck them in rivers; they can deface monuments, cause injury and terror. What happens to the members of those mobs? The police commanders do nothing to stop the terror, even make statements supporting the mobs with weasel words, and make few if any arrests (none at all in Bristol).
In the unlikely event that the street terrorists of London and Bristol are actually arrested and then charged and prosecuted, will any face prison? No, they will not. Community service, conditional discharges, maybe the odd fine.
We can see the way that this is going. Traitors in Parliament, traitors in the police, traitors in radio, TV, the Press and the legal system are creating planned chaos in this country.
Again, where most typical old-style “Conservative” supporters go wrong is in assuming that the “authorities” are somehow negligent or weak in not stopping the disorder, when the reality is that “authority” has long ago been infiltrated by Common Purpose, by 1960s cultural revolutionaries turned “Establishment” figures, and by those who are completely in the pocket of the Jewish-Zionist element.
Who are they? Well, they are legion…but look at, for example, the heads, or recent heads, of organizations such as the Civil Service, the Security Service MI5, MI6/SIS as well, the editors of newspapers, the Director(s) of Public Prosecutions, the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police, Cressida Dick (and the legions of others of similar stripe, such as Superintendent Andy Bennett of Bristol), the types that turn up on or behind TV as presenters, heads of department, you name it. Even comedians. Tony Blair. Cherie Blair/Booth. Many MPs.
These are just the tip of the iceberg. One day, perhaps not too far off, Britain will undertake a cultural purge which will save the British people and all Europe.
Since the NWO “lockdown”/shutdown, the TV news has been unwatchable: split-screens showing multikulti children howling pop songs “for the NHS” or for non-existent “community”, interviews with officially-approved scientists, “experts”, government ministerial drones. Virtually no foreign news at all, except, now, endless eulogizing of the deceased black man in Minnesota. His tasteless funeral service in Texas was relayed for literally hours this evening on both Sky News and BBC World. Who should turn up there, like a bad penny, but “Rev” Al Sharpton! Still ranting. God, what a world…
The Great Train Robbery
Watched a TV film, The Great Train Robbery https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Great_Train_Robbery_(2013_TV_series) , presumably based on (though I did not notice it credited) The Robbers’ Tale by Peta Fordham, who used to be called “Peta Boredom” by Private Eye. Her husband was a criminal barrister of some note in his day.
As to Peta Fordham herself, when I read her stuff as a teenager (I mean her books, not her —I think Observer— column) I tended to despise her bleating on behalf of the professional villains she seemed to support; she also wrote on behalf of their families. She seemed to lose “professional” (if journalism be deemed a profession) detachment quite often. I recall the blurb of one book saying that “…she lives in a flat in the Temple, and has a house in a bluebell wood in Kent“. In other words, a typical affluent chattering-class “liberal” (odds-on that she supported mass immigration too…). A smug “liberal” Bar/Fleet Street denizen of the time. Hateful.
Reverting to the TV film I saw (first of two episodes), it was well-made, well-filmed. A couple of gripes relating to locations: one location, presumably a residential park in inner city London, somewhere like Goose Green, East Dulwich, was captioned “Lincoln’s Inn Fields”. I am presuming that it was cheaper to film in the other place; but in a film such as this, authenticity is essential. If it were impossible to film in Lincoln’s Inn Fields, then just film it elsewhere, but without the misleading caption.
BA is now saying that those of its staff that it chooses to “re-employ” after “lockdown”/shutdown will receive less pay, worse conditions of employment etc. Is this a straw in the wind? Will that become the norm? All fallout from the crazed Government reaction to the Chinese virus.
Recent tweets
Except that everywhere Marxism has been tried has led to a Stalin. So there must be some basic flaw in the ideology. https://t.co/YIAsBhVhM6
Where Andrew Neil may be uncomprehending (actually, I think not…not at all) is if he thinks that the black mobs and “antifa” (etc), insofar as they espouse “Marxism” or “Marxism-Leninism”, think that they can have old-style socialism without secret or not so secret police, labour camps, executions etc. Au contraire. Look at Twitter. The “Marxists” and similar on Twitter usually do not admit as much, but they are gagging to have the power to round up anyone they care to label “fascist”, “Nazi”, “racist” etc and shoot them, or order them shot. It’s palpable.
“Today, statues— tomorrow, people”…
[the image below is of course not 100% accurate— the mob should be 90% non-white]
Let’s not pretend that this is all accidental. When non-white political careerists like Sadiq Khan or David Lammy want to start tearing down statues, they are attacking all white British people.
First cultural genocide, then actual genocide. How? Various ways: promotion of non-procreative lifestyles (LGBTQ etc); promotion of abortion of (white) babies; promotion of racemixing, ie destruction of European ancestry, or its imprisonment and minimization; false history taught and/or broadcast (Romans, Greeks, ancient Egyptians as “black”, along with mediaeval Europeans, Renaissance people etc); actual killing or driving out of white Europeans (eg in contemporary South Africa); TV and radio propaganda, especially aimed at the young.; and so on.
Do not mistake what is happening. We, as white European people, are receiving open declaration of war. Some non-whites and also some white and other traitors are declaring war on us, openly now.

King Leopold of the Belgians, and the Congo
Yes, the regime of Leopold in the Congo was brutal, but it ended in 1908 (he died in 1909) and, after that, the colonial regime in the Congo was often considered one of the most enlightened in Africa. By the time of Independence in 1960, every village had a well (towns had running water and sanitation), most had a school, a clinic etc.
“During the 1940s and 1950s the Belgian Congo experienced extensive urbanisation, and the colonial administration began various development programmes aimed at making the territory into a “model colony”.[9] One result saw the development of a new middle-class of Europeanised African “évolués” in the cities.[9] By the 1950s the Congo had a wage labour force twice as large as that in any other African colony.” [Wikipedia]
Albert Schweitzer (who was mainly in what is now Gabon, part of a French colony then called French Equatorial Africa, but whose work was influential in the Congo) is now largely forgotten, no doubt as a result of the prevailing political correctness:
50 years of progress were wiped out by less than 5 years of African misgovernment (make that now, as of date of writing, 60 years of African misgovernment…).

Coronavirus
Official figures now released show that the number of people in the UK with Coronavirus is under 1 per every 1,000 of the population.
Hardly anyone even has it now, let alone requires any form of medical care, yet this government of idiots continues with the ludicrous and hugely-damaging “lockdown” (shutdown) and has now even laid down a quasi-dictatorial “rule” that anyone using a bus or train must wear a facemask.
This whole thing is rubbish. The scientist -“advisers” have been proven to be rubbish, the government have been proven to be rubbish, as have the police and the msm (including the “free” Press); likewise the virtue-signalling Twitter mob; last but not least, the British public have been proven to be rubbish, first for not bothering to properly examine the facts, for not bothering to think for themselves; also, for not bothering to stand up for their own or anyone else’s freedom of expression and belief, and for allowing centuries of civil rights to be expunged overnight, for nothing.

Because we know this stuff is more or less permanent, until either a) the government admits it was all a mistake or b) the next panic begins. Which of those is more likely? The most amazing thing has been the willingness of supposedly free people to submit to absurd regulations. https://t.co/bPMCTmrUxY
Hitchens is right. In a free country, which (speaking loosely) the UK was, once, an “emergency” regulation such as the diktat to wear masks on public transport would have (if ever implemented), have an end date or point. Not this time.
This time, people are to wear masks until told not to, despite the fact that (as I guessed some time ago) only 1 in 1,000 British people, or people living in Britain (even including the far more susceptible blacks, browns and Jews) even have the Chinese virus; despite the fact that the vast majority of people either are never infected or are infected but show no symptoms; despite the fact that almost all those infected need no medical help at all; despite the fact that (even on official inflated statistics) the death toll is about 1 out of 1,900 people and the real death toll about 1 out of 10,000 people.
Why do people submit to this absurdity? I think that there are several reasons, one being that those who refuse to be put into muzzles will not be allowed onto buses, train, planes etc, or will be fined.
Another reason is because people are brainwashed by the constant msm propaganda pumped out. There is virtually no real dissent on TV or radio. The TV news has become a terminally dull recitation of official propaganda: split-screens full of multiracial children howling pop songs “for the NHS” or some such, and “interviews” with dull academics or government drones. Foreign news is almost absent, except eulogies for the deceased black robber/community leader in Minnesota.
Perhaps the most English reason to submit to wearing a facemask is that of wanting not to be seen causing a scene, not to be heard complaining…

The only reason why it has taken so long for the “blame game” to start is because, so far, the “lockdown” (government shutdown of the economy and society) has not hit very many individual people or families very hard. That is changing, and with it is going what remains of the post-GE2019 “Boris bounce”:

As far as “financial genius” and “future Prime Minister” Rishi Sunak is concerned, less is now heard of him. I wonder whether his —so far unmerited— reputation for sagacity will survive the coming economic cataclysm, or whether he will just keep his head down while Boris-idiot takes the flak.
Boris-idiot himself is trying to keep his head down (for once), but that is the one thing all but impossible for a prime minister to do. Fairly or not, the buck really does stop at the door of no. 10.
Strange “fact”
In the 1970s, it was said that the entire population of the UK could be housed at a density similar to Hampstead Garden Suburb and within 30 or perhaps it was 35 miles of Charing Cross. Of course, since then the population has gone up from about 56 millions to maybe 65 million and possibly 70 millions, thanks to mass immigration and births to immigrants, and to the offspring of immigrants, so maybe that would read “35-40 miles” now.
I once, in the late 1970s, lived partly at Reigate Hill, Surrey; before that, in a house just over the top of Reigate Hill, not far from where the M25 interchange now is (the M25 was still being laid out then, in 1977 and the few years beyond). On the road there (the A217), was a sign, “London 20 miles”. Surprisingly close in miles, though it did not really feel so close to London, the outer suburban sprawl of which started about 6 miles North of that sign, beyond Burgh Heath.
Not that I like Hampstead Garden Suburb much. I knew someone who lived there. To me, it was just generally underwhelming, neither country nor town.
Having said that, there are worse places in which to live. Mancunian council estates; privately-owned but poorly-conceived tract housing, with (in many cases) small gardens, inadequate parking, no public green space etc; then there is Earl’s Court, or Magnitogorsk…

“The family of British author Richard Adams have won a court battle over the rights to Watership Down against American film producer Martin Rosen.” [Daily Mail]
As soon as I saw the headline, I knew that it had to be a (((you know who))) cheating the author out of his rightful earnings. Odds-on, anyway. Not “prejudice”. Experience.
Peak “woke”?
Today, in the UK, members of the public are urged to “take the knee”, that strangely mediaeval gesture of black power, at 1800 hrs, in “solidarity” with the black rioters, looters and “protesters” of the urban USA. Later, at 2000 hrs, the rabbits are urged to carry on being “woke” by clapping on their doorsteps for the public services (or something, or nothing).
I sincerely hope that both ideas will continue to be ignored by 90%+ of the British people (where I live, about 99%).
The American police are sometimes very rough, true, but how is it a “protest” to burn buildings or cars in California, or loot computer shops etc in some other states, because one black man was, possibly, unlawfully killed by one or a few policemen in Minnesota? Or is this the opening shot in a real race/culture war, akin to the firing of the cannon at Fort Sumter, that kicked off the American Civil War?
Meanwhile, some of the concealed enemies of white Northern European culture are coming out from behind their Twitter and Facebook accounts. Some are rejoicing in what they see as the upcoming death of white European life and culture (and civilization).
I happened to see this tweet, which does not stand alone:
Racists are scared, terrified. Those of us raised in urban, diverse communities have always known this.We are the rainbow generation & the future is ours. This violence, murder & hate we see now is the kicking and screaming of those who know their time is up. #BlackLivesMatter
The tweeter is an actor, presumably rather affluent. His political beliefs and ideology seem, to me, evident.
Then see this one:

Most attacks by blacks and browns on whites in the UK are never even classified by police or in the msm as “racial attacks” but as ordinary crime.
In the case referred to above, “He became a student activist and led a campaign against alleged racism at the city’s Dental Hospital. This eventually saw the introduction of anonymous marking across all faculties at the University.[2]
Heleft engineering to study sociology and politics, and was still a studentwhen, in 1991, he was arrested by police officers for illegally flyposting on Ashton Lane. During his arrest he was pushed to the ground, and had his teeth chipped. Anwar successfully took civil action against Strathclyde Police. In 1995, Sheriff Evans found that one officer had assaulted Anwar and that it appeared to be a racially motivated attack; Anwar was awarded £4,200 in compensation and the policeman was suspended.[3]
Anwar was criticised by the ruling Sheriff in regards to the release of “bloated confrontational material” surrounding the case with the Sheriff stating the allegations of racism did not influence his findings.” [Wikipedia]
In other words, that tweeter was breaking the law in 1991, being a social pest by flyposting. Yes, one officer was rough with him (whether “provoked” or not I do not know), and (4 years later) was suspended from his job as a result. Anwar was awarded £4,200 compensation as well.
Asa matter of fact, if Aamer Anwar was “an angry young man” after he was assaulted by the police, what was he before, when he was flyposting and (?) scrawling graffiti (Wikipedia says “anonymous marking”) all over the campus at Glasgow University? Also (i.e. already) angry?
As for this Aamer Anwar’s background etc, I read in Wikipedia that he was born in 1967 in England (of Pakistani origins), and became at first a student reading mechanical engineering in 1986, when aged 19. By 1991, when he was aged 24 or 25, he had switched to sociology and politics. That was when the events described above took place (the civil trial occurred in 1995). He must have switched to law, perhaps after his degree, because he became a solicitor in Scotland in 2000, aged 32.
“Controversies:
Anwar made controversial statements in the aftermath of the 2007 Glasgow International Airport attack, in which he claimed, “That there is no difference between a stealth bomber and a suicide bomber, the effects are still the same”. In further remarks he argued that there was a moral equivalence between the 9/11 hijackers and the United States when they bomb innocent civilians.[45]
While finding Anwar’s comments to be “misleading” Lord Osborne did not find him in contempt of court. However he still strongly criticised Anwar’s behaviour stating that statements from the lawyer were politically motivated and largely consisted of “angry and petulant criticism” Further stating the court is entitled to expect better of those who practice before it.” [Wikipedia]
More criticism of lawyer Anwar, this time as Rector of Glasgow University (2017-2020, and no longer en poste, according to his Twitter profile):
“The Times Scottish edition reported in June 2018 that Anwar had failed to hold a single surgery for the first 11 months of his rectorship; a claim backed up by Glasgow University.
Anwar [was] criticised for publicly accusing the university of showing “callous disregard” for students and staff, treating international students as “cash cows” and claiming to have uncovered serious cases of racism and sexual harassment. However, officials at the university insisted that when they asked for specific details so they could launch investigations, none were provided.” [Wikipedia]
It seems that Aamer Anwar has received several awards in Scotland (having launched his own law firm in 2007), a fact which makes me even less optimistic about the path that “nationalist” Scotland is on.
Go for it Jean- I’m taking screenshots of the hypocrites who are screaming heartbreak at racial injustice in the USA but have never had a word to say about it on their doorstep #BlackLivesMatter (Everywhere!)
— Aamer Anwar✊🏾🏳️🌈#BlackLivesMatter (@AamerAnwar) June 3, 2020
So, he regards himself, or so it seems to me, as “black” (though he is a Pakistani by origin, albeit born in England); also, he rants about “racial injustice”, when he himself was not only educated in England and Scotland at public expense but also has been able to become qualified as a solicitor and to set up a law firm which has received both recognition and awards.
Jews (most of the famous ones at least) support the black “protests”…
Here, for example, are the Jews who own the well-known ice-cream company, whose Twitter message says “Peace, Love, & Ice Cream”:
Jews always have supported everything that breaks down white Northern European civilization, whether in Europe itself, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Southern Africa…
The blacks and browns (some of them) scapegoat the white Europeans despite the latter having created almost everything of value in the past thousand (arguably several thousand) years.

The Conservative Party succeeded in the 2019 General Election, not on its own merits, i.e. because voters flocked to it; no, few voters flocked to the Conservative Party, but many flocked away from the Labour Party.
Now, the Conservative Party lead over Labour has been greatly reduced by the obvious incompetence of Boris-idiot, Priti Patel, little Matt Hancock and that little pissant Robert Jenrick, among others; more voters now are saying that they might vote Labour, but only by default, because they are waking up to the general uselessness of Boris-idiot (though credit where due: at least he has resisted supporting the “woke” “protesters” and looters of inner-urban USA). In the UK’s basically binary political system, when one cuckoo goes in, the other comes out.
Said a government spokesman who had just wrecked an entire economy, spent billions he did not possess, destroyed countless small businesses and jobs and permanently damaged the health of thousands. I see your broken eggs, Comrade @journojoel. But where is your omelette? https://t.co/DFJdswfZo8
Now the iceberg of reality is approaching the UK Titanic. Said iceberg has been concealed or disguised by “furlough” payments, financial support for (often only notionally) “self-employed” people; a semi-holiday for many. Also, by some government support for small businesses. Then there was the warm-to-hot weather, not as irrelevant a point as it may seem. That contributed to the almost-holiday feeling.
Despite all the above measures, thousands of redundancies have been announced already. Millions are now already receiving “Universal Credit”, ie the dole. Come the Autumn, the Winter, there will be a huge collapse. The only way of avoiding that collapse, or at least its effects, will be to inaugurate huge make-work projects (on minimum wage). The Summer will soon be over.
I went out to get a few items at Waitrose. Exiting at just on 2000 hrs, I noticed that there were no “useful idiots” clapping anywhere.

“A former head of MI6 has said he believes the coronavirus pandemic “started as an accident” when the virus escaped from a laboratory in China.
In an interview with The Telegraph, Sir Richard Dearlove said he had seen an “important” new scientific report suggesting the virus did not emerge naturally but was man-made by Chinese scientists.
The apparent discovery will raise the prospect of China paying “reparations” for the death and economic catastrophe wreaked upon the world, the former intelligence chief said. It comes as Beijing faces growing pressure to explain precisely how coronavirus first began to spread late last year. [Daily Telegraph]
China is on a collision course with the West. What will be vital is the stance Russia takes.
This report also raises questions about the “experts” and scientific advisers used by governments:
“International scientists have reached a near-unanimous consensus, however, that the virus emerged in animals – most likely bats or pangolins – before jumping to the human population.
But Sir Richard, 75, pointed to a scientific paper published this week by a Norwegian-British research team who claim to have discovered clues within Covid-19’s genetic sequence suggesting key elements were “inserted” and may not have evolved naturally.” [Daily Telegraph]
The world, and particularly the USA, now stands in a position vis a vis China akin to that vis a vis Japan in the 1930s.
A stray thought about the “black” protest in London
We have seen the blacks en masse “protest”, even riot and murder before in London, and on a far larger canvas. The Brixton riots of 1981, the Broadwater Farm housing estate riot of 1985 etc.
More recently, in 2011, we had the “shopping riots” (looting, and burning of buildings and vehicles).
What is different about the “black” protests of the past few days? Well, for one thing, they were not “riots” at all, not yet anyway. I should say that the fact that the trigger event took place in Minnesota, half a world away, may have dampened the reaction, as did yesterday’s rain. I used to notice, when a London resident, that almost all the blacks avoid (far more than the English) going out in the rain.
So why am I more uneasy about what has happened than I ever was in 2011, 1985, 1981 etc? The first reason is because the msm now are not only less willing to stand up for white Northern European civilization and what were once known as “British values”, but seem now to actively promote this anti-white, anti-British agenda that we see constantly before our eyes.
A major factor is the Jewish infiltration into all aspects of the msm: TV, radio, Press, publishing. Thus we see the TV news coming out in favour of the black protests, and encouraging more.
The police: as we have seen, some policemen go so far as to “bend the knee” in sign of fealty to the black mob. Policemen are rather canine. They respect the so-called “alpha”. If the mob is powerful, some police at least just give in to it.
The same is true of the police reaction to the Jew-Zionist lobby. The only thing that can deal with such a reaction is to show that you have the baton of power. The police will then salute you. That is what happened when the NSDAP took over the government of Germany. The police simply transferred their loyalty to the new order; the same thing happened in France and in the Channel Islands in 1940.
What has been disturbing about the last few days is not so much the “protests” themselves but the fact that many of those with power and money in society are eager to see that same society destroyed, or at least changed, so that the white British people who created it can be marginalized or destroyed.

Yes, it seems that, for the (((contaminated))) msm, “White Lives Do Not Matter”…
When the whole NWO/ZOG pro-Mandela thing was at its height in 1988 or so, I knew one or two people who were pro-Mandela, pro-ANC etc. Since then, I have met a few others who were that way politically inclined back then. All women. None, bar one who had been on a 2-week holiday to Zanzibar, had ever been to any part of Africa. None knew much about Africa or even South Africa. One was even, apparently, a member of some pro-ANC solidarity group in, I think, Dorset.
Thus are such campaigns often sustained, by naive and emotional people, often women, who actually are moved by feeling rather than intellect. However, the vital thing is that the msm was biased, hugely, one way. All the propaganda pumped out was one way. It still is.
I'm finding the whipping up of hysteria and rage by the British broadcast media about the killing of a man by police in another country sickening and deeply irresponsible. The latest manifestation of an extreme lib-Left outlook that has become endemic. We can't go on like this
Seems that I got it wrong again re. the pathetic clapping ritual, and that the “clapathon”, during which brainwashed rabbits applaud their own reduction to serfdom, was not yesterday (Wednesday) but this evening (Thursday). Round here no-one was clapping this evening either, though. People are waking up, and soon will be waking up a to gigantic metaphorical hangover.
The royal mulatta

Likewise, it seems that the royal mulatta wants peace, and for her, Harry and their child to be left alone and out of the public eye…but not just yet!

Perhaps the most emotive [accusation] concerns slavery. During the 18th century, the peak of the huge and lucrative Atlantic slave trade, British merchants bought slaves from African rulers — on average, 120 people every day by the 1780s — and sold them primarily to French, Portuguese-Brazilian and British planters. Was this the source of Britain’s wealth, and the fuel of the Industrial Revolution? Profit from the slave trade made individuals rich, but accounted for about one per cent of national income. The Industrial Revolution’s key element was coal, of which Britain had a lot.
Where the British Empire’s relationship with slavery was unique was in combatting it. Britain abolished its own slave trade in 1807. In 1834 it abolished slavery throughout the Empire. British subjects were forbidden to own slaves anywhere in the world.”
I have to admit that I was unaware that the slave trade accounted for only 1% of national income (unclear as to whether that 1% was only the actual trade, or including profits made using slaves, eg West Indies cotton and sugar).
Yes @MarkyV18, of course governments claim that their mad destructive actions saved lives. They would, wouldn't they? (as Mandy Rice Davies would have said). Their futures depend on it. The amazing thing is that a credulous public *believes* it without question. https://t.co/4bvKLesCB1
Here (above) is a link to that article. It is very true about Wikipedia. I like and use Wikipedia a great deal, but it is very blinkered on certain topics, among which is the so-called “holocaust” fable. Many of Wikipedia’s editors (mostly unpaid volunteers) are Jews (especially American Jews).
Another topic upon which Wikipedia is very biased is anything to do with what the Jews, “antifa” idiots and msm usually term “far Right” politics. You will be misinformed if you rely on Wikipedia for information about that.
Finally, Wikipedia will allow newspaper articles to be cited, but not if the newspaper is the Daily Mail! The Sun? OK. The Daily Mirror? OK. Morning Star? OK. In fact, as far as I know, any newspaper, and certainly any mainstream newspaper, is OK, but never the Daily Mail. On any topic. I am hardly likely to be pro-Daily Mail, as such, having been featured generally unfavourably by that newspaper in the past (2016) but it is no worse than the rest of the msm; and often more informative.

I have so far only skim-read this https://t.co/WYQ0aQMuM1 and so cannot possibly endorse it, and do not do so.. But it does contain a very disturbing summary of events.
It is alarming. For example, Devon and Cornwall Police: “On 1 April, Devon and Cornwall Police released a statement saying that, regardless of the guidance from both the National Police Chiefs’ Council and the College of Policing, it would not be changing its position on people travelling by car to a place for exercise. ‘Our interpretation is that it is not reasonable, for the majority, to drive miles to a specific place such as a beauty spot. It is also not within the spirit of what we are trying to achieve if you drive from Devon to the coast of Cornwall for surfing, regardless of whether that is “lawful” or not.’”
In other words, the Devon and Cornwall Police, among others, are going to try to “interpret” the will of the Government, and apply that, regardless of whether that has the force of law or not…
The above is a good example of the Common Purpose attitude (“Leading beyond authority“) which has infected the police and public services generally over the past 30 years: the police actually purporting to decide what is the law, and even saying, straight out and brazenly, that they are going to allow or disallow X, Y, or Z whether X, Y or Z are lawful or not!
Then there is the police “nark on a neighbour” idea, which at one time was attracting nearly 6,000 quasi-Stalinist denunciations daily!

Actually, I should not spend too much time on this lady, though she is typical of so many on Twitter, but she is rather “the gift that keeps on giving”:
Finding the tweets on Lucozade really interesting. I remember it as a sports drink, but it seems older people remember it only when they were ill. It seems to be just another soft drink now. It was deliberately high in sugar, maybe that's why we have an obesity crisis.
— Louise Ellis Davies ☮💕 (@louanndavies) May 15, 2020
As a child in the early to mid-1960s, I was only ever given Lucozade (the original one, in a large glass bottle with yellow cellophane wrapping) when unwell. It was thought to aid recovery and maybe it did, because it was indeed high in glucose. Where the tweeter above goes wrong is in saying that Lucozade caused obesity. Hardly. Most children only had about 2 bottles a year, if that!
I see people like that on Twitter daily, the ones who think of themselves as thinking people, often (as in her case) socialist or rather pseudo-socialist (well-meaning perhaps, so be it…). They make about 9 silly points for every 1 good point.
Increasingly, I am finding the truth about all of this elusive. The virus is terrible but, paradoxically, it seems that not many people out of a given population get it and, of those, many and perhaps most do not need any medical care at all. However, quite a number of people are dying of it or at least with it. All one can do is hope that it will go away soon…
There is certainly an unthinking tick-box madness abroad (again) in the UK. Look at this:
Out patrolling the meon valley to find motorcycles out for a pleasure ride. If the government request wont keep you at home we can still deal with motoring offences. Come on people #StayAtHomeSaveLives #23701 pic.twitter.com/GvVHn0eWea

A motorcyclist out for a pleasure ride may be a nuisance but is not going to infect anyone with Coronavirus (or be infected) while riding. The police, once again (as with so-called “hate crime”) seem to be zealously getting rather above themselves.
The same is true of people out driving. They may be congesting roads (though not at present, surely?) but they are scarcely posing any risk of infection to themselves or others.
We are policing the roads as usual. Only drive if its essential. Please drive/ride safely because you can help control demand on the NHS. Thank you #JOUCVUpic.twitter.com/EXnmwtTH2m

Increasingly, the police in this country seem to be near-useless when it matters— and, when it does not matter, a petty and oppressive nuisance. By all means, do what has to be done to stop infections by this virus, but for God’s sake use some intelligence!
If the police say that all they are doing is enforcing the (new and seemingly not well thought-through) “law”, then that law needs to be amended as quickly as it is being passed.
As written above, the police seem to have zealously gone beyond even the strict “regulations” laid down by the Government. The police tweeted this:
Needless to add, I hope, the above does not represent what the police are pleased to call “the new rules”.
Greta Nut wants more attention (again)…
Funniest story of the day so far: Greta Thunberg has released a statement to the effect that she has been “self-isolating” since her return to Sweden 2-3 weeks ago. She claims to have had symptoms of Coronavirus but has not been tested.
Translation? She has not been in the news since her ridiculous visit to the UK recently, and in fact has become an irrelevance and/or yesterday’s news, so she wants more mass media attention. She (and those behind her) are therefore jumping onto the Coronavirus bandwagon.
The “caring, sharing” multikulti society…
One final tweet to give you a bit of #corona good news tonight: a bureaucrat in Leicester council was caught stealing from a foodbank. He'd been passing food meant for poor families to his cousin to sell in his shop. The scumbag was sacked today & both reported to police.
I wonder what the criminal’s ethnic background might be?
A word of truth…
Another?
We can't go to the pub due to #CoronaCrisisuk, and that's understandable & accepted. But UK airports are still open to people from #corona disaster zones. This is some special sort of multicult death wish. "We must be mad, literally mad… "https://t.co/JBTvwcV39U
So strange that the New British don't behave like the Old Britons. I thought the air here and the passport changed 'them' into 'us'. #GreatR*placement #CoronaVirusUpdatehttps://t.co/Q0UI55cid7
We are told that The Great Replacement is a “conspiracy theory”, yet you only have to look around you to see that this “theory” has a great deal of factual underpinning.
Femi Who?
During the long haul of the Brexit stuff in Parliament in 2018 and 2019, the intensely irritating figure of an African called Femi Oluwole was ubiquitous. Now 30, his sole achievement seems to have been the completion of a degree in Law and French at Nottingham. He comes from affluent Nigerian parents who are both medical doctors resident in the UK. Though his Wikipedia entry states that he “has worked in NGOs and human rights agencies”, none is listed; I think that whatever he did (if anything) can probably be dismissed as rather unimportant and probably trifling.
Here is what a former “colleague” thinks of him:
@Femi_Sorry was the co-founder of the company I used to work for. He once rung my colleague on Friday night (during her birthday party) and told her he was going to fire the entire team and run @OFOCBrexit on his own. He is a horrible person so good choice here @UKLabourhttps://t.co/oLKiXhJbvL
“Femi” is now in the news (well, in Twitter news at least) for having been expelled from the Labour Party (which he joined only recently). He is also to be found opining for money (I presume) on the pathetic Sky News talking shop, The Pledge. Other deadheads there include ignorant tabloid scribbler Carole Malone and Boris Johnson’s sister, Rachel Johnson. Nick Ferrari, the very pro-Israel radio presenter, seems to be the main talking head on the show.
“Femi” is just one example of the Great Replacement in action. Another is the now-blatant campaign on UK television (soaps, dramas, ads etc) to show black men breeding with white and usually blonde Englishwomen.
When I was still at school, in the early 1970s, there would sometimes be an earnest discussion on whatever Newsnight’s almost identical predecessor was then called (Newsnight as such only broadcast from 1980). The subject? Would there ever be an ethnic minority MP or even Prime Minister? Well, we now know the answer to the first part of that question (Jews were never mentioned, so they must have been regarded by the BBC as “white”).
The same is true on TV and radio. In fact, the fewer blacks and browns that there are in any particular region of the UK, the more ethnic minority presenters and reporters there are on local TV. This is not reflective of the society, it’s social engineering with a very obvious agenda (cf. the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan).
Fact v. fiction
I have seen things which, though they happened, would seem far-fetched in fiction. This is, in fact, not as uncommon as many think. Look at the 1973 novel, The Camp of the Saints, in which old ships and boats invade the shores of Mediterranean France carrying millions of black and brown migrant-invaders. That could never happen! (we used to think…).
Er, yes. It is afrightening read, though surprisingly quiet on the Babylonian effects of the death of money, espcially in Berlin. I have litle doubt that the German money catastrophe, by demoralising the former middle classes, brought Nazism intio being. https://t.co/qbMlhdXYGS
Hitchens is obviously referring to the likelihood that the Rishi Sunak “giveaway” will weaken the pound sterling.
Afternoon drive in the sun, with “Government-approved” stamped on it
Another little (and before any little person “reports” me, fully Government-approved and permitted…) outing this afternoon. Chemist in the nearby town first and then a drive of about 4 miles to a little village shop where —mirabile dictu!— I was able to buy a loaf of freshly-baked wholemeal bread with seeds, albeit at the rather rip-off price of £2. In fact, there were about 30 loaves for sale, mostly identical. Whether that was because a delivery had just arrived (though this was after 1700 hrs) or because the bread shortage panic has now ended, I have no idea. I hope the latter.
Forced agreement
You mean you disagree with me. Well, do you know what, @robhwilliamson – that’s a free society for you. https://t.co/wQQM1RMXQX
I have no idea whether Peter Hitchens is right or wrong about Coronavirus, but tweeter “Rob H. Williamson” is yet another person who, having himself accepted a narrative, thinks that others who express disagreement, dissent or doubt are “incorrect”, “wrong”, and probably need to be repressed, “re-educated” or punished for not going along with the officially-approved narrative in full. cf. the “holocaust” farrago (and by the by I see that tweeter “@robhwilliamson” is a exponent of the Israeli “martial art” thug discipline, Krav Maga).
A few more interesting tweets from Peter Hitchens and others
This is astonishing, if true. Can anyone confirm or refute? If correct, Covid deaths in Italy are being grossly, significantly overstated. https://t.co/8LWXqy8VzI
What a pity that Parliament has all but dispersed and most of the media have already closed their minds. But maybe a turn is coming. https://t.co/M8N0nPBpoo
Can anyone in HM Government (or any of its many toadies and unpaid spokespersons in the formerly independent media) offer an explanation of this anomaly? https://t.co/PvpkGnqD0d
The self-described UK “Left”, pathetic toadies of the State
I myself rarely use those all but meaningless terms, “Right”, “Left”, “far right” (etc) as descriptors. Those who self-describe thus are now not the same species as those who might have described themselves thus historically.
Time and again, I see such people almost begging for State repression, censorship, restriction. The Coronavirus situation is merely the latest example. Such people are forever begging those who head Twitter, Facebook etc to censor those with whom the self-describing “Left” disagrees, demanding that employers or professional regulators sack those of a generally nationalist viewpoint, or demanding heavier State repression and stricter laws against the “Left’s” political enemies.
Old-style socialism, in all forms, from social democracy to Maoism and the puerile worship of Che Guevara and the like, died in or about 1989, essentially. What we now see is a kind of powerless rump, which poses as activist multikulti “socialist” politics but is really just a facade without substance.
The new emergency legislation being put forward has a life of, at present, 2 years, until 2022, despite the assertion by Boris-idiot that the Coronavirus crisis might last only for 3 months more, i.e. until June 2020. Already, local elections have been deferred for a year. It may be that NWO/ZOG dictatorship is planned, not only in the UK, but across Europe. I would not rule out civil or social war by 2022.
#StopHoarding
Twitter is doing what it does best, namely allowing people to tweet well-meaning and totally ineffective pleas. In this case, under hashtag #StopHoarding, to those who imagine that they need 500 loo rolls and a mountain of pasta and bottled water.
As I have blogged on previous days, there is (possibly reasonable) bulk-buying and there is (wholly unreasonable) panic-buying. Yesterday, at 1900 hrs, I visited the little village shop about 2 miles from me, and which I have noted in previous posts. It shuts at 1930. I bought almost the last loaf of bread, a bunch of bananas, some locally-produced asparagus and a few lottery tickets.
I wanted to see whether Waitrose in the nearest town was offering much, and mistakenly thought that it closed at 2100 on Thursday. Turned out that it closes at 2000 on Thursdays, so I arrived with only 10 minutes to get anything I wanted. That being so, I was unable to see whether shoppers had stripped the shelves bare again. I did notice that there was not a single egg left, not even the more expensive ones from rare breed chickens, with sky-blue shells. I myself bought only (again) almost the last loaf of bread and a reduced-price (99p reduced from £2-75) North African vegetable and cous-cous salad thing (which turned out to be quite tasty).
I think that this panic-buying can be halted by supermarkets only allowing one item or pack of anything per shopper. Inconvenient, yes, and some would then go to half a dozen places to evade the rule, but most would not and it would restore equilibrium.
Free speech
Well done, @HullLive [http://hull-live.co.uk], and well done “Will Wright of Hull”, whoever you are. The truth is rarely seen in the newspapers in the UK.
Socialism, National Socialism, “National Communism” and Social Nationalism
“Socialism” has almost as many meanings as “democracy”. We still see people with pedestrian understanding writing or tweeting about how “socialism” is and can only be something akin to the Marxist-Leninist setup of the period before the great change(s) since 1989. Those people say that German “National Socialism” was not “real” socialism. Yet German National Socialism gave the German people a great deal more in every way, both economic and cultural, than did either Weimar Republic social democracy or post-1945 Soviet-style DDR (East German) socialism.
Of course, socialism in the Soviet Union had various faces at various times, from Civil War times (1918-21) when militarization of the workforce was the norm (“War Communism”) to the New Economic Policy of the 1920s under which a controlled form of capitalism and private enterprise was permitted, to the harsh centralized system of Stalin in the 1930s and 1940s, a less severe version in the 1950s to 1980s, and then the fall of the various forms of socialism, all over the world, from 1989.
Hitler took a broad view of the term “socialism”, regarding it as meaning, broadly, “the common weal”. He was not hidebound by artificial or arbitrary “definitions” of what socialism means. For him, what mattered were results. So long as the German people were well-fed, housed, educated, organized etc, he was content.
For me, policy matters, as do results. Artificial theory matters less. I was, at one time, in the mid-1970s, accused of not being so much a National Socialist as a “National Communist”, in other words accused of over-valuing the role of the State. I demur. However, the State does have its rightful place (as seen in the Threefold Social Order concept: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_threefolding).
We in the UK have seen in the past decade what happens when the role of the State is cast aside or into the background. Now, with the Coronavirus crisis, we see that the State, in its weakened condition, is unable to properly fulfil its role of guardian of the people (“…for the welfare of the people is the highest law“— Cicero).
What is now required is what might be called “social nationalism”, not old-style State socialism but a system whereby the State, in its proper place, protects and serves the people and, as part of that, regulates but does not actually run economic enterprises and markets. “Nationalism”? All that that means is that the political organization is rooted in our basically “Aryan” European culture, history and way of life.
Basic Income
A group of 500 academics have signed an open letter to Govt: "It is time for Govts to enact emergency universal basic income, ensuring that everyone in their jurisdiction has enough money to buy the food & other essentials they need to survive.” #UBIhttps://t.co/LjrOLx9pm8
So little Matt Hancock, clearly out of his depth, has been told to “recall” retired doctors and nurses. My thoughts:
the Government has no power to order such recall, only to request it;
retired NHS staff are almost all over 60, many over 70, and so are far more likely to fall victim to Coronavirus and to be seriously affected if they do contract it;
the above is obviously far more likely to happen in the often not very hygienic conditions of a UK NHS hospital.
Worth reading, certainly, but of course the Jew scribbler never once mentions the racial divisions or aspects.
Stuttgart view
A snapshot of Stuttgart life under Coronavirus, from “antifa” cheerleader Mike Stuchbery, who was all but run out of the UK on a rail in 2018.
Message getting through in Stuttgart. Far less seniors out, only folks heading to the supermarket. Saw less than five joggers. We may be okay. This path is usually crowded by those running. pic.twitter.com/C5aBoo48YE
Stuchbery, “writer”, “journalist”, “historian” (all self-descriptions) and one-time schoolteacher, apparently does not know the difference between “less” and “fewer”.
A midnight ramble through Casablanca and beyond
[above: La Marseillaise trumps Der Wacht am Rhein in Casablanca]
After years of mixed reviews, the truth has hit: the NHS is now basically incapable of dealing at all with the most serious public health danger for decades, possibly since 1918.
the number of hospital beds per thousand of population is lower by far than in other “advanced” countries; below that of even the USA, and less than half of the number per capita available in France;
the number of intensive care beds is only 4,500 in the whole of the UK, about 1 for every 16,000 people. The number of beds actually operational is nearer to 1,500, so about 1 for every 45,000 inhabitants;
if people contract the illness, they are asked not even to call the NHS advice line (111) for over a week! We may as well be in black Africa!
people with the virus or who think that they may have it are asked to “self-isolate”, i.e. protect others and society as a whole by staying in their homes (so far, no red crosses are to be painted on their doors…), but for the sufferers themselves, for those that live with them (and the UK has a huge amount of shared occupancy and crowded housing) there is no help, not from the NHS, not from the medical profession, not from the State itself.
The British State has shown itself unable and in essence unwilling to help its people.
In the now almost-mythical past (pre-2010), when I myself owned Rolex watches, it only peripherally occurred to me that I might be attacked and robbed for one or another watch. I lived in almost-Central London; also in Almaty, Kazakhstan and elsewhere. I never had a problem (well, not one that could not be handled). Now? London has become a zoo with golden bars.
As to the victims in the report above, some seem very young to be sporting Rolex watches worth £6,000-£7,000. Only 18 and 19! They have wealthy and indulgent fathers? They are Lotto winners? Video game designers? “Rolex robbers” themselves? Well, there it is.
The “Great Replacement”: are the worms starting to turn?
In the parallel universe of Twitter, “#BorisOut” is trending, and not unjustly, after Boris-idiot’s pathetic attempt to play the statesman yesterday, and now that more people understand what people like me have been saying for years:
Boris Johnson is no good in a crisis;
Boris Johnson has no real ideas or ideals;
Boris Johnson is merely posing as Prime Minister;
Boris Johnson is incompetent
Twitter is far from the real political world at ground level, though. The irony is that most of the mortalities from Coronavirus are likely to be people over 70 who voted Conservative in 2019 and so are directly responsible for this government of fools even being in place. “If you listen very carefully, you can hear the Gods, laughing” [Commodus, allegedly]

I have noticed in the past couple of years that quite a few of those who have engaged in persecuting me, denouncing me to various authorities and snooping on me, as well as insulting me on Twitter, have died or are fast declining by reason of terminal medical conditions. Not a few are also mentally disturbed.
I have just seen today that yet another one has apparently shuffled off the mortal coil.
Discrimination against English people is OK; but discrimination against blacks, browns, Jews etc is not OK….in this sick degenerate society
“Race row after leading private schools turn down donor’s £1m offer to help poor white boys”
“Sir Bryan said: “If Cambridge University can accept a much larger donation in support of black students, why cannot I do the same for underprivileged white British?”
Listening to Farming Today on BBC Radio 4. Lawless bands engaging in illegal hare coursing. All or almost all is done by Irish tinker “traveller” riff raff, aka “gypsies”, but the BBC will not, of course, permit those words to be used. The BBC interviews farmers in the Fen country about this criminal nuisance, but either the farmers do not dare to designate the criminals or the BBC does not permit them to do so. This gives a false picture.
It is as if these hare coursing criminals have come from outer space, as far as the BBC is concerned. No question is put on air as to who or what these “people” are; just “hare coursers”… who arrive in 4WD cars, do illegal hare coursing, bet on it, film it. But they are not “travellers”, “gypsies”, “tinkers”…oh no…BBC, police, even the victims say “No Sir, we’re not “racist”…” As Americans say, “what a crock”!
Meanwhile…
“Fewer than one in 100 alleged hate crimes investigated by the UK’s first dedicated police unit have resulted in a charge, as experts say £1.7 million would have been better spent fighting violent crime.
Just 17 cases, or 0.92 per cent of the 1,851 incidents logged by the UK’s first online hate crime hub have led to charges.
Only seven of those charges resulted in a prosecution, meaning that under one in 200 proceeded to court. Three cases were pending a Crown Prosecution (CPS) charging decision, according to the figures obtained under Freedom of Information laws by the Press Association.” [Daily Telegraph]
Ha ha!…and of those remaining 7-10 cases, most probably ended in acquittal.
Greta Thunberg (again)
Incredibly, BBC Radio 4 Today Programme, the ultimate System radio mouthpiece in the UK, has Greta Thunberg as “Guest Editor”.
I have already blogged about both Greta Nut and the connected Extinction Rebellion nonsense:
One has to ask why the Today Programme has asked this mentally-disturbed, autistic creature, 17 years old this week (on 3 January 2020), and who has no educational qualifications of any kind (not even school ones), let alone any scientific ones, to edit their show? It’s pure System propaganda.
Greta Thunberg is no more authentic than a ventriloquist’s dummy:
If I am honest, Greta Nut’s “impassioned” rants just make me laugh out loud. Ridiculous, irrelevant little nut.
Sick politics
Kay Burley was apparently offered not only a safe Westminster seat by both Lab and Con (in 2015), but even an immediate Cabinet place! The present system is just mad. It is neither democratic nor rational.
In itself, a fairly standard story about an aged “veteran” from WW2, but look at the last paragraph:
“The Dambusters raid – officially known as Operation Chastise – has gone down in history as one of the war’s most famous stories.
Purpose-built ‘bouncing bombs’ were used to target dams in Germany in May 1943 – which then burst and caused catastrophic flooding in some parts.
A post-war film cemented the raid in the nation’s popular consciousness – although it claimed more than 1,600 lives.” [Daily Mirror]
There is gradually seeping into these wartime stories the consciousness of the human cost, not only to one side in war, but also to the “enemy” (especially civilians), of such military operations.
