Well, this week an easy victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He scored 4/10, whereas I managed 7/10, and might have scored 9/10 had I been able to bring to mind the answers to questions 1 and 7 (which I basically knew). The only question on which I had no idea at all was no. 3.

Slava! All the same, that central westward thrust from Dnipro (Dnepropetrovsk) to Vinnitsa looks to me unnecessary and possibly counterproductive.
Russia needs to secure all territory east of the Dnieper, and also the coastal littoral of the Black Sea (including Odessa) but, above all, Kiev itself. Confine the Zelensky regime to a rump inland “state” based on Lvov.
The map shows, supposedly, something akin to the original scheme, but it probably is still the overall strategy.
The Bürgerbräukeller, Munich, in or about 1923, shown above presumably before rather than after the “Beer Hall Putsch” (8-9 November 1923 :https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_Hall_Putsch).
The photo shows a meeting of the NSDAP. All those shown in the photo were members or supporters of the NSDAP.
What interests me is that, at that time, the NSDAP was a relatively minor party even in its hub, Bavaria (in early 1923, the national membership was about 6,000, and by the Autumn of 1923 about 20,000).
In May 1924, i.e. after the failure of the “Beer Hall Putsch” (aka “Munich Putsch” or “Hitler-Ludendorff Putsch), the NSDAP (banned, so using the name “National Socialist Freedom Movement”) scored only 6.5% in the federal (national) elections, and only 3% in December 1924.
In 1923-1924, the NSDAP had the sort of minor public support that, in the UK of the 21st Century, UKIP was enjoying about a decade ago, and that the BNP had about 15 years ago.
All the same, look at that photograph of the NSDAP meeting in 1923. Many hundreds of people, at the least. All looking decently-dressed.
One cannot but help compare that to the tiny so-called “far-right” (national and social-national) parties of today’s Britain.
The main difference politically between Germany in 1923 and Britain in 2023 is, that in 1923 Germany, there were large numbers of Germans of all social and income groups who supported the idea of national renewal. The NSDAP may only have had a few thousand or tens of thousands of members, but other volkisch parties and groups, such as, and primarily, the Stahlhelm, had the same or more, in some cases hundreds of thousands: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Der_Stahlhelm,_Bund_der_Frontsoldaten.
Look now at Britain in 2023. The degenerate strata of higher-income and high-social-status groups do not, generally, support national renewal, but are (metaphorically) signed up to the trends which are destroying our society (and now destroying it quite rapidly).
What that means is that, should social-nationalism, by a political miracle (which I do not rule out) take power in this country, it will have to start its mission by removing surgically, and by drastic surgery, large sections of degenerate society, at all income and social-status levels.

30% of births in the UK within only 20% of the population of the UK. The “indigenous” part of the population is only producing 70% of births. In fact, non-white mothers are counted by such studies as “indigenous”, so the true situation is far more stark. The white British 80% of the UK population is not producing 70% of births but a far smaller percentage, maybe well under 50%.

One sees how, after the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance, when dissenting thinkers such as Galileo were accused of heresy, free thinking was thought of as part and parcel of Western civilization— until now.
The attack on free thought, in the contemporary West, started with the Jew-Zionists, and their plan to make examination of modern history, particularly the “holocaust” farrago and mythus and, within that, especially, the whole “gas chambers” fable, something to be treated as if criminal. That repression is now in place in about 20 European states.
Now we see the knock-on consequences: people dissenting from “mainstream” (propaganda) opinion about aspects of “climate change”, or the “Covid” “panicdemic” should be (some say) treated as criminal. The same goes for those who do not agree with mass immigration and the consequent destruction of European life and culture.
Why do I think this? Because I believe we should on a war footing against climate breakdown.
At first, I thought that tweeter Professor Cowern might be a parody account, but no! See https://uk.linkedin.com/in/nickcowern. Someone who apparently worked mainly in “modelling”, employed at Harwell and by Philips electronics, his main field(s) being in materials science and semiconductors (i.e. nothing to do with climate), but who now focusses upon and, it seems, obsesses about climate change by reason of human agency.
He was a professor at Newcastle University for only 6 years; now “emeritus”, i.e. retired from academia (aged 70), though was until 2021 running his own (one-man-band) show engaged in modelling climate change etc.
The sort of scientist who flourished under Stalin, denouncing those with contrary opinions.
A lot of folk (and bots) replying to this tweet rather obviously have an interest in this not happening. https://t.co/P6y8CJCxum
Yes, thankfully, many people are still willing to stand up for academic and personal freedom of thought and expression.
They are not people with what Professor Cowern calls an (impliedly, improper) “interest” in the same, whereas Professor Cowern was Director of a private “climate change modelling” company set up by himself; NC Tech Insight Ltd.
In fact, it seems that Professor Cowern’s Linked-In profile is not entirely accurate, because, according to Companies House, NC Tech Insight Ltd, having been incorporated in 2014 (with a share capital of £100 and actual capital/assets — in 2018— of £83,000), was dissolved in early 2021. It seems that, as far as can be seen on cursory examination, Professor Cowern’s self-promoted expertise is not much in demand: see https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/08897617.
More of the “professor’s” words of “wisdom”:
This makes you a good authoritarian, borderline criminal, on par with the worst torturers in history, because to undertake such drastic measures you'd have to be God. The reality is society should put in jail people who have the thought of jailing others because they believe…
For a supposed scientist who has (as far as I can see) developed nothing new or at least very interesting in the scientific field, the “professor” is extremely dogmatic and scathing. A Lysenko for our times?
“In 1940, Lysenko became director of the Institute of Genetics within the USSR‘s Academy of Sciences, and he used his political influence and power to suppress dissenting opinions and discredit, marginalize, and imprison his critics, elevating his anti-Mendelian theories to state-sanctioned doctrine.[4]
Soviet scientists who refused to renounce genetics were dismissed from their posts and left destitute. Hundreds if not thousands of others were imprisoned. Several were sentenced to death as enemies of the state, including the botanist Nikolai Vavilov.[5] Lysenko’s ideas and practices contributed to the famines that killed millions of Soviet people;[5] the adoption of his methods from 1958 in the People’s Republic of China had similarly calamitous results, culminating in the Great Chinese Famine of 1959 to 1962.”[5]
Professor Emeritus Cowern strikes me as a crank, overall, and an unpleasant crank at that. Also, someone with very poor logical skills, looking at his attempts to debate with critics.
This isn't banning free speech, it's recognising its proper limits. Nobody can have absolute freedom, because that enables them to harm the freedom of others – in this case, the freedom to live in safety. Hate speech is a closely analogous problem.
“Hate speech“? Is “Professor” Cowern (you know who)?
One of the features of Britain over the past few decades has been the over-supply of supposed “professors”. The proliferation of institutions calling themselves “universities” has resulted in an explosion in the numbers of those designated as “professors”. Many are rather poor.
[Update, 7 February 2025: the blog page for 12 August 2023 having had a few hits today, I looked to see what the “Professor” is saying these days. Nothing much. He has performatively left Twitter/X and is now on its new “woke”/joke rival, “Blue Sky Social”. Same obsession, though: https://bsky.app/profile/nickcowern.bsky.social].

You can see the way things are going, eg in the car production arena. Firstly, the “Great Reset” demands electric cars because (it is falsely claimed) they are more “green” than existing internal combustion cars. Then existing petrol/diesel cars will be gradually phased out (made more expensive or even illegal). Then, after that, most people will simply be unable to afford to buy or drive electric cars. Car transport will thenceforth largely be available only to the self-styled elites: the wealthy, politicians, bankers etc…

Strange dream
Like Churchill, I have the habit of having an afternoon nap when possible. Today that came with an odd dream. I was running some political organization, and there was not only some (unidentified) journalist there, but also Nigel Farage.
Upstaging the journalist, Farage had made a grandiloquent offer, that is that he would pay me a million pounds to interview me for some TV show or podcast.
The interview was to take place at an ordinary table on the (maybe) third floor of a building. Just a dull, carpeted space, with a few people (including that journalist) around. Someone else was accompanying Farage.
Farage was about to start when, not quite trusting him, I remarked (in the dream, “urbanely”…) that I was sure that, as a man of business, he would not mind if I asked for the cheque upfront. He started to expostulate evasively. I asked what value of cheque he was willing to give. The answer, after some “umming and arring”, was…£22!
I became angry, dragging Farage from his seat and across the grey-carpeted floor to the window, with him struggling and trying to escape.
As I approached the windows, Farage in my grasp (though struggling to break free), I shouted at him that I had known that he could not be trusted, and that not only should he be chucked out of a window but that I was going to do it!
I then woke up.
Well, that was what I was doing this afternoon…
From where did that come?

As a barrister (until wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred in 2016, though I did not practise law anyway after 2008), I saw, even in the early 1990s, the “rotten borough” that is asylum law, and immigration law in general.
Perhaps so, and indeed that dissident third would shrink further if the people asked knew that the invaders are not detained, can come and go freely, get free food and medical (etc) as well as shelter, and even pocket money on top.
Having said that, the barges are a distraction. Up to a thousand of the invaders cross the Channel daily. Only 500-600 can be accommodated on one barge. Also, cross-Channel migration is only a fraction of the whole (about a million a year, plus births to migrant/immigrant/other non-white women already here).

“In 1995, the twins, Kyrie and Brielle Jackson, were born 12 weeks premature, each weighing only about 2 pounds. They were placed in separate incubators. One twin was not expected to survive. She went into critical condition. Her heart rate was rising while her oxygen level was dropping significantly. They were about to lose her. It was then that one nurse, Gale Kasparian, went against the hospital rules and standard procedure, putting the healthy twin next to her struggling sister in the same incubator. This decision turned out to be life-saving. Once the twins were close to each other, the struggling sister (Brielle) snuggled up to the healthy sister (Kyrie) who put her arms around Brielle. Almost immediately after, Brielle’s vital signs started stabilizing. Her heart rate and oxygen levels normalized. Both twin sisters eventually survived and grew into strong young women. The picture below came to be known as the rescuing hug and would change a part of our understanding of medicine. Hugging that is coming from the heart is proven to have calming and healing effects. Maybe there is someone in your life that can use a warm and heartfelt hug right now.”
I wonder how many more shantytowns of the same sort will be built under the expected “Labour” government after 2024, in order to shelter the million unwanted immigrants (migrant invaders) arriving here every single year. Mostly useless parasites.

Argos was started by a man who “invented” Green Shield stamps, a ubiquitous thing in 1960s/1970s Britain. In fact, he “borrowed” the idea of those stamps from the USA, where they had been around for about half a century.
When that man, Richard Tompkins, started Argos, almost all the “experts” in the newspaper financial and business columns of the Press thought that it would not work. The “experts” were wrong, as usual (the same columnists and other scribblers also thought, in the 1980s and 1990s, that Sky TV and Amazon respectively would not succeed).

Never underestimate the strategic importance of defence in depth. In 1943, Allied forces invaded Sicily, then landed at Anzio, south of Rome, in January 1944, subsequently advancing to Rome itself by June 1944. The Italian government of Mussolini collapsed after the Fascist Grand Council and the King dismissed Mussolini, who was arrested (though later rescued by Otto Skorzeny’s commando and glider force).
The fall of Rome in 1944, however, was not the end of the matter in big-picture terms. The several east-west German lines of defence were only slowly breached by Allied forces: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gothic_Line.
The German forces withdrew from the various lines in good order, always to the North. By the end of the Second World War in 1945, the Allies had still not reached the Austrian frontier.
In the present Ukraine conflict, the Kiev-regime forces are exhausting themselves. They have little prospect of advancing as far as Crimea, nor of regaining the former Ukrainian oblasts of Donetsk and Lugansk, let alone of breaching, in any substantial way, the borders of Russia proper.

“As a child aged just nine, I endured the longest and most terrifying night of my life, fleeing with my family from our home.
Nearly 70 years later, every detail of that escape is still burned into my memory. All my life I have had the deepest sympathy for fellow refugees: those who leave behind everything they own and everyone they know to reach safety.
It was at the beginning of winter in 1956 that the Furedi family fled Hungary. My father was one of the leaders of the workers’ councils in Budapest organising resistance to Soviet Union control. That culminated in an uprising, which was mercilessly crushed by Red Army tanks and troops.
Many of these peers inhabit a fantasy world. The soaring numbers of illegal migrants entering Britain don’t lose them any sleep at night. In their ermined world, any attempt to find a practical solution to the problem is dismissed as ‘isolationist’, ‘morally unacceptable’ and ‘impractical’.
The BBC is equally detached from reality.
As a university sociologist, listening to the whining in the Lords, I cannot help but draw the conclusion that the very existence of this narcissistic, unelected, unaccountable chamber is a political corruption of democracy.“
[Daily Mail]
Completely correct.
One of the worst abusers of the House of Lords system is “Lord” Alf Dubs, a half-Jew whose (Jewish) father fled from Prague in 1938, leaving behind his (Austrian) wife and his son (they arrived in London a year later).
Alf Dubs, Labour MP for 8 years before later joining the misnamed “Lords”, was (maybe still is) a cheeky freeloader and expenses cheat (by any other name):
“Dubs lists his main home as a cottage in the Lake District in Cumbria, which enabled him to claim over £26,000 of overnight subsistence expenses in 2007–08,[15][16] although he has lived in Notting Hill, London, since 1964. In May 2009, he argued in justification that Lords regard the overnight allowance as a payment in lieu of salary. “We are the only legislators in the world that don’t get paid,” he said. “The overnight thing is quite generous because it compensates for not having a salary. In practice that’s how it works.“

That was 15+ years ago. I wonder how much the old fraud drags down these days while trying to import as many migrant-invaders as possible to batten upon the British people who, generously but wrongheadedly, gave him and his parents refuge in 1938 and 1939?
“A 98-YEAR-OLD war veteran who is battling cancer has been evicted from his bungalow and is now homeless.
Alfred Guenigault, who served in World War Two as a paratrooper, was issued with a no-fault eviction notice two months ago by the landlord of the Ferndown bungalow he has lived in for the past seven years.
He is now living in St Gabriels hostel in Verwood with his daughter Deb Dean and her husband Bert and says he feels “terrible” about the situation..
The great-grandfather-of-six-fears he will not be able to see his grandchildren from his new residence.
The family was forced to pack up their belongings and leave Ferndown on Thursday afternoon.
They turned to the council for help, which told them to go to First Point, a Dorset-based support service.
Deb said: “They were amazing and helped us so much with the forms and explaining things and told us we were eligible for a bungalow.
“They said there is a duty to house us temporarily, which we understand, but we didn’t think it would be in a hostel.”
Deb said the one room provided for them is empty, with no beds, apart from one provided by the hospital for the veteran, and has a shared kitchen and bathroom.
He also won’t be able to see any of his church friends who come over to see him or the vicar as well; his life is here in Ferndown.
Deb, a pensioner herself, lives with her father as his full-time carer while he battles cancer and severe kidney disease and said the situation is “very unfair” on her dad in his final years.
She added: “Dad has his carers in three to four times a day and I have to be with him 24 hours a day but because I recently became a pensioner, they have stopped my carer’s allowance which is about £700.
“We are told we will be in a hostel for six to eight months and it’s very unfair on him.
“My concern is that in six months, he may not even be here anymore.”
Mr Guenigault, who has been awarded the National Order of the Legion of Honour by the French government, said: “None of my grandchildren will be able to stay in the hostel. I feel terrible, but mostly for Deb.
“I also have to change my doctor, who is brilliant, as it is outside the area, but I don’t want to do that.”
A spokesman for Dorset Council said the authority will work with the family to find suitable accommodation in “as short a timescale as possible” but that they “need to be realistic about what is achievable in the current climate”.
“The council takes the Military Covenant very seriously and has a former veteran working within the team so really do appreciate the sacrifice our veterans make.”
Secondly, that landlord (a buy-to-let parasite?) is a prime subject for “naming and shaming”, if there ever was one.
Thirdly, how unjust that the old man’s daughter is now deprived of her Carer’s Allowance just because she has now become eligible for a slightly higher weekly amount by way of State Pension.
Fourthly, there would at least be decent alternative accommodation available for people like this were Britain not flooded with millions of black and brown migrant-invaders and other immigrants (“other” including about 150,000 bloody Ukrainians alone since last year).
Lastly, note the meaningless weaselling by the local council about the “Military Covenant” brought in by the government of David Cameron-Levita. Just lip-service. Useless.
At some point, Britain will explode, one way or another. This whole situation is unsustainable, and insupportable.
A final thought on this: is there no ex-members’ welfare organization attached to the Parachute Regiment that might help?

While I have no reason to think that “Captain Tom” was other than “well-meaning”, that whole thing was just a ridiculous “silly season” kind of story, and was pushed by the mass media because it tended to validate the idea that NHS service is wonderful and that the NHS was only failing in its main mission because overwhelmed by the “Covid” virus (that in fact, statistically, killed very few people).

As for the NHS, the cartoon below seems to encapsulate the public debate:
The NHS principle (“free at point of use”) is one I support, but it is clear that the NHS has lost its way. It —like the Welfare State generally— cannot work when mass immigration causes an endless line of new demand for its services. Also, maladministration has been patent for years, indeed for at least two decades. At present, the NHS is not really “doing what it says on the tin”. It is now a very hit-and-miss service.

They never really tried. Yet another political scam. The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan requires Europe to be invaded by non-Europeans, particularly blacks and browns, and to be ruled by Jews and part-Jews. Look around you…
As far as the Channel migration-invasion is concerned, once a small number of boats were sunk (by Britain’s otherwise now-pointless Royal Navy), and that fact publicized, few others would even try; but the existing political system is either too weak, or implicated in the Coudenhove-Kalergi conspiracy, to take the initial harsh decision required.
Thus, instead of sinking the boats of the invaders, the Navy ferries the invaders to Dover, assisted by other corrupted organizations such as the RNLI, the Coastguard, the Border Force (“Farce”) etc.
Point proven. Not that humour is everything, but it helps.

Makes a million a year. Not bad for someone who, after an expensive private education, left Durham University with only a 2:2 in English.
I once had a girlfriend who opined that Durham University was where people study if they are from wealthy families but cannot get into Oxford or Cambridge. That was in relation to a barrister who was a friend of a couple she knew, someone with a very unusual name— something like “Mauleverer”.
In fact, I met said barrister when we attended a dinner party (not my favourite activity) in Blackheath in, I think, 1987 or thereabouts, at which that barrister was also a guest. I was a belated Bar School student at the time (though about 31). The barrister in question must have been 40-something, but in my opinion looked 50+.
The hostess was a charming blonde lady of Polish origins (but I think born in the UK), whose familiar name I forget and was something like Dushka (but not that). Her husband was a friendly chap who seemed amused by that barrister’s seemingly dog-like devotion to the hostess.
If truth be known, the barrister in question struck me as a bit of a nitwit, and I was told that the hostess later said to my girlfriend that I had given more of an impression of being a senior barrister than the said real senior barrister, despite my being ten years younger and a mere Bar student.
Well, perhaps my view was wrong, or at least superficial, because I believe that I read that the barrister in question was then or not long afterwards a silk (QC, now of course KC) and later became a commercial arbitrator and judge (I think in Hong Kong), as well as a trustee of one or two well-known institutions. So maybe he was not a nitwit, at least not entirely. Or maybe our social system rewards people from privileged backgrounds who make the right noises. Take your choice.

Tweeter “Mido” needs to know that, without the almost endless arms, ammunition, money, medical supplies, and other aid (eg food) being channeled to the Kiev regime from the West, the war would stop in a matter of weeks, perhaps even days, and what is left of the Ukrainian state and society would simply cease to function, also in weeks or days. Even state benefits and pensions in Ukraine are now being underwritten by the NWO/ZOG states.
As for troops, the Kiev regime is already pressing into service all sorts of people hitherto exempt. Kiev is running out of cannon-fodder.

I happened to see the two ridiculous tweets below:
I have just read the article, what a grossly unfair decision, there was no interest in prosecuting @MLewisLawyer. I hope he gets an apology.
— Dr Charlotte Proudman (@DrProudman) July 5, 2023
So the often-heavily-criticized Jolyon Maugham [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jolyon_Maugham], a part-Jew barrister and “activist”, here supporting egregious and self-publicizing Jewish solicitor Mark Lewis, is applauded by one Charlotte Proudman, apparently a mainly academic lawyer and barrister who has attended or researched at no less than five universities in the UK and USA. I do not think that I had heard of her before today.
Ms. Proudman should read my blog posts, written several years ago about Lewis, before expressing an opinion:
So far from having been “grossly unfair“, as Ms. Proudman opines (having apparently read only a brief and one-sided scribble on the Legal Business online platform), the decision of the Solicitors’ Regulation Authority [SRA] regarding Lewis was impeccably fair and, in punishing Lewis very leniently, bent over backwards to be fair. Even his small fine was reduced from £7,500 to £2,500 because his Counsel said on his behalf that Lewis (the ludicrously so-called “top lawyer“, if you believe the tabloid Press) owned no real property, and in fact owned nothing at time of the hearing in 2018 but his clothes, a private pension worth £70 a week, and a mobility scooter.
After the SRA hearing, Lewis took off for Israel, where he now lives.
Looking at what Lewis wrote online to various people, including a Jewish teenager, I was surprised that Lewis was not struck off the roll of solicitors.
I wonder whether Ms. Proudman thinks that the decision of the Bar Disciplinary Tribunal in my case was “grossly unfair“? I doubt it, even though I was both wrongfully, and actually unlawfully, disbarred (at the instigation of a pack of politically-motivated Jews) for having merely tweeted five (5) tweets, all of which were completely true and accurate: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/.
Incidentally, this (below) is the profile photograph of herself that Ms. Proudman seems to think appropriate to publish on her Twitter account (which profile describes her as a barrister etc):

Do you fancy looking into Jack Monroe? Has taken money from well meaning people to sue a Tory MP and kept the money with never even commencing proceedings. She then suggested it went to an unnamed foodbank and refused to provide proof. She’s stolen it. pic.twitter.com/Kzd45OqCqG

The mainstream parties all have the same open door agenda. None are fit to govern this country any more.
What is needed is a rout and a radical shake up of Westminster.

Polls of that sort are of course unscientific, and anything on Twitter more so, because of the well-known biases. All the same, it is clear that the present Government has run out of road. It is hitting as many buttons as possible to shore up at least the core Conservative-leaning vote: pledging to retain the pension Triple Lock, pledging to at least reduce net immigration (how about stopping the inward flow, and starting an outward flow?) etc, but it seems hopeless.
Actions speak louder than words. Something that the “Conservative” Party ministers and Prime Ministers of the past 13+ years seem not to understand. Mass immigration has continued unabated under Sunak and, as Chancellor, he also paused, for one year, the Triple Lock.
If I'm murdered by a foreigners I hereby give my permission for people to politicise my death and use it to forward the nationalist agenda.
Stop all immigration and begin a process of returns and deportation we must make life uncomfortable for them, remove benefits pass laws ,at the next election collectively vote for a Patriotic Right Wing anti immigration party we must save Britain 🇬🇧

Who is organizing this? Who is providing the tents, tarps, food, etc? Is the UN-IOM involved? Any NGOs? They’ve been “migrating” in this way through Central America and Mexico to the U.S. for 2.5 years now. Our government refuses to stop them. 😲

Stats don't lie. Safe to say that with daily follower losses like this, Jack Monroe bootstrapcook needs to face up to the fact people have seen through the grift & are deserting her in droves. It's over. pic.twitter.com/nmn2q9flUZ
“Jack Monroe” is surely a busted flush. Even the utter mugs donating to her on Patreon are waking up: 396 as of today, the first time that the number has dropped below 400 (only a few days ago it was still 414). Last year, there were nearly 900 of those mugs, partly by reason of (now effectively withdrawn) endorsements by TV talking heads and cuisine “experts” Nigella Lawson and Jay Rayner (and others).
Still, 396 mugs each sending “Jack Monroe” between £3.50 and £44 monthly. As said previously, “not a bad little earner“, to use the Essex argot. Must still add up to at least a few thousand in cash. Monthly. For nothing.
If the fall continues, “Jack Monroe”, the “Bootstrap Cook”, may have to either go on the dole or whatever again (she made a whole media career out of having done that once, for a year or so, a decade or more ago). Or perhaps her affluent/wealthy family of buy-to-let parasites, who live in the same area as her, will help her out. I doubt whether she would be employable as anything. I read somewhere that she has only had a couple of jobs (for short periods, and long ago), one arranged via her father, answering the telephones at the Essex fire brigade, the other in a fish and chip shop.
Sven Longshanks
I just donated 20 British pounds to support Sven Longshanks. Chip in if you can!
A reminder that the appeal for Sven Longshanks (James Allchurch) is still up. The aim is to raise funds both to assist him while he still sits in prison (i.e. until early/mid 2024), and also to help him resettle once released.
In cheering Thursday news, Jolyon Maugham and his (Not Very) Good Law Project have lost yet another of their flagship cases. #LGBAllianceWinhttps://t.co/ZBhjC8S410
Until today, I was unaware that Maugham no longer practises as a barrister in chambers (he specialized in tax law). Apparently, he left his last chambers in 2020.
I have seen tweets saying that Maugham is a “grifter”, living off donations to the Good Law Project. I have no idea whether that be so, and I also note that the GLP is supported by not only individual donations but also large grants from several well-known trust funds, not least that of the rather odd Rausing people (the descendants of the man who invented Tetrapak in Sweden); they also give or have given money to the mainly Jewish “Hope not Hate” crowd.
How much Maugham pays himself (in effect) as Director of the GLP I have no idea (and the website of the GLP is silent on the subject).
Jolyon lives in a construct of fantasy and demands that the rest of us exchange reality for that fantasy so it only makes sense that Jolyon see this loss within the prism of fantasy as well as a win.
I remember seeing Maugham on a “celebrity” episode of University Challenge. He stood out from the rest as combining a very-obviously huge opinion of himself with equally-huge ignorance of almost everything. Very funny.
I have no idea how well (or not) Jolyon Maugham was regarded as a tax barrister, before he launched “Woke Law Project”, but it gives pause for thought how many cases “GLP” has lost or not “won”.
As for Maugham being a KC, these days about 10% of all barristers hold letters patent as KC; it is not the accolade it once was. At one time, only a few barristers a year were made up to KC or QC; now dozens are.
You’d think people would realise how Jolyon works by now instead of continuing to fund the clown. His brings pointless and baseless claims to the courts that never should be there. He’s not doing what’s right by anybody but himself and his wallet.
@greenbelt do you still think Jack Monroe poses no risks? This is due to her doxxing someone, just for requesting a refund from her. Her fans turning up on someone’s doorstep and harassing him.
One of my online harassers turned up at my house late last night and refused to leave, claiming that I refused to answer their "3 reasonable dinner party questions" about myself and they felt the need to ask me in person. That is why the police are now taking it seriously.
I hope to god Jack Monroe bootstrapcook is punished to the maximum degree and shamed publicly for her part in this. She doxxed you, she led the pile ons, she is behind it all when she tried to escape facing justice.
“Jack Monroe” may not have ordered or asked for the above harassment to happen, but she is all the same behind it in the wider sense. She “doxxed” (revealed publicly the address of) the person involved, and she knows very well that her most fervent supporters are often those with mental health problems (as well as the very dim). In other words, she lit the blue touchpaper.
Late tweets seen
George Osborne, being the insanely well-connected former British finance minister pic.twitter.com/mg5mzpAu0c
— Martin can be found wherever you get your tweets (@MartinConcagh) July 6, 2023
I myself have not yet read this instantly-infamous email, though I think that I can guess at least a little of what is in it.
Incidentally, Osborne is yet another part-Jew.
George Osborne is directly responsible for the mess we are in and the mess we've been living in since 2010. He destroyed this country.
So many people assume that because one enemy of the people has “Conservative” on the label, and another “Labour“, that they are not both part of the System together, or are somehow “opposed”. Only superficially.
The government refuses to believe that when you cut the benefit levels the economy crashes. The poor cannot spend what they don’t have. If you increase the benefit levels the economy grows as the poor spend everything you give them. That was why George Osborne’s cuts didn’t work.
Exactly. Give a poor man £1 and he will almost certainly spend it, and have to spend it. Give £1 to a rich man and he will either bank it or buy a hedging asset (eg over-valued real property) with it.
