“Labour MP Rosie Duffield has resigned the Labour whip with immediate effect.
Her resignation pulls no punches:
“As Prime Minister, your managerial and technocratic approach, and lack of basic politics and political instincts, have come crashing down on us as a party after we worked so hard, promised so much, and waited a long fourteen years to be mandated by the British public to return to power
Since the change of government in July, the revelations of hypocrisy have been staggering and increasingly outrageous.
I cannot put into words how angry I and my colleagues are at your total lack of understanding about how you have made us all appear.
How dare you take our longed-for victory, the electorate’s sacred and precious trust, and throw it back in their individual faces and the faces of dedicated and hardworking Labour MPs?!
The sleaze, nepotism and apparent avarice are off the scale. I am so ashamed of what you and your inner circle have done to tarnish and humiliate our once proud party.”
I might not agree on everything with Rosie Duffield (specifically, her support for Israel and the Jewish lobby), but she certainly has principle. These days, in the political milieu, that is as rare and as valuable as rubies.
“Forcing a vote [on winter fuel payment] …while you and your favourite colleagues enjoy free family trips to events most people would have to save hard for — why are you not showing even the slightest bit of embarrassment?”
Starmer shows no embarrassment because he is not really a politician, let alone a statesman, but a technician, put into power by the Israel/Zionist/Jewish lobby to do a job: firstly to get rid of Corbyn and any non-Zionists in Labour, secondly to impose the ZOG/NWO regime, meaning pro-Israel and pro-“Ukraine” (the Zelensky Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) internationally, and a kind of “great reset” domestically; thirdly, to destroy what little free speech and freedom of expression still exists in the UK, fourthly, to impose a “woke” dictatorship intent on shipping into the UK as many non-whites as possible.

They regard him getting voted out because he said his constituents were extremists and told them to fuck off as a terrible, unforgivable injustice and a threat.
Interesting. Something of which I was previously unaware. I suppose it might just be co-incidence, but there so often do seem to be so many “co-incidences”…
It should be illegal for Penny Mordaunt and Kemi Badenoch to promote Israel as if it's something they know or believe when it's just a paid promotion of a Foreign power for a fee like promoting Marlboro cigarettes.. And of course, the same applies to Keir Starmer and Labour.. pic.twitter.com/RTZWffWsnI
That kind of Jewish lobby (which after 1948 became also an Israel/State of Israel lobby) did exist prior to WW2. Churchill was its main agent; but it did not really or fully embed itself until after 1989, in the 1990s. Blair was, in this as in so many other negative things, the one who opened up the portal of darkness.
"I've always put my constituents first, and that hasn't changed." "Why don't you put that to the test?" "No."
Ha. Seems that her principles do not extend as far as giving up, or risking having to give up, the pay and perks of an MP. She understands all too well that, in a rigged system like this, the voting masses only vote for a label, at least 99% of the time. Which makes me wonder why she has left Labour. Maybe she will jump to Reform UK. Seems unlikely, though, especially in view of her solid electoral support at GE 2024— 41.4%, with Cons second on 23%.
I was just looking at Rosie Duffield’s bio: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_Duffield. Not very impressive; not at all. The main thing that stands out is her pro-Israel, pro-Jewish lobby stance. I have noticed that the prolific and fanatical Jewish tweeters on Twitter/X always support her— a very bad sign.
Rosie Duffield cannot return to a well-paid outside profession or career, because she never had one. She dropped out of school at 16, and her main activity apart from being a mother was as a teaching assistant for a number of years. She was 46 when she became an MP in 2017.
Maybe Rosie Duffield, in the end, is just quite genuinely horrified by the evident unfitness of Starmer-Labour, and has simply decided to sit it out as an MP for the next 4+ years and then either not stand for re-election or maybe stand for Reform UK or as Independent. She might yet have a chance if she goes to Reform and if Reform is by then the main challenging party.
She is older than she looks and (born 1971) is now 53. By 2029, she will be 58. Perhaps she has little interest in continuing beyond that point.
As for Starmer, I said on the blog, about a week or so after GE 2024, that he had already failed in government.

“Friedrich Merz, the leader of Germany’s main opposition party, the CDU, said that “Ukraine can never defeat Russia, and that was never the goal.” In an interview with Bild, he said that the allies are helping Ukraine “not to lose the war.”
Asked whether Ukraine should win the war, he replied: ” Ukraine will never be able to defeat Russia, that was never the goal. But for me victory means: it must restore sovereignty over its territory. And Russia must stop attacking this country. We must do everything to make Russia consider the continuation of the war hopeless. But we are quite far from that.”

Reminder: Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says free speech is a weapon of war, and censorship is necessary to protect free speech. pic.twitter.com/iM4g7RbyO7
That horrible creature of Evil, Jacinda Ardern, has been a major player in the attempt to create a world anti-white, anti-free speech dictatorship. New Zealand may be far away from almost everywhere but until about 30 years ago was an almost entirely English/Scottish new-ish society. That, of course, had to be trashed… How did they do it? Same as everywhere else of importance— imported non-white populations, and destroyed free speech.
People talk a lot of nonsense about how the white settlers took over the existing Maori state in the 19thC. There is of course a kernel of truth in that, but the main Maori invasion and/or settlement was in the 14thC AD, only c.400 years before the white European settlement. In any case, after the Europeans and Maori came to agreement, New Zealand was a progressive and peaceful society until the late 20thC.
Jacinda Ardern worked at a fairly high level for the UK Labour Party under Blair-Brown for 1-2 years before relocating back to New Zealand.
15 years as MP, of which about 6 were also years as Prime Minister (2017-2023).
One puzzling aspect of Jacinda Ardern’s political regime is that she came to power as Prime Minister with a rather small amount of capital, yet is now said to be worth tens of millions of NZ dollars. How?

Anyone who has lived in the USA knows to what extent the Israel/Zionist/Jewish lobby controls the major parts of the news media (TV stations, radio stations, the newspapers, magazines etc). I do not hear John Kerry talking about that, though…
While admittedly not germane to the tweet above, I do find it puzzling that the parents of Ed and David Miliband were supposedly “poor refugees” “fleeing” “Nazi-ism”, so how did they obviously have so much money?
“Belgian-born Marxist sociologist Ralph Miliband and Polish-born Marion Kozak [were] both from Polish Jewish families.[1][7][8] The latter was a teacher before she became a homemaker. He was given the middle name of “Wright” after the American sociologist C. Wright Mills, a friend of his father.[9] He has said “I am the child of Jewish immigrants and that is a very important part of my identity.”[7]
Both his Polish Jewish paternal grandparents lived in the Jewish quarter of Warsaw. His paternal grandfather, Samuel, a trained leather worker, served in the Red Army in the Polish–Soviet War of 1919–1921 before moving to Belgium.[10][11] His paternal grandmother, Renia (later known as Renée), also moved to Belgium, where she first met Sam, and the couple married in 1923.[12]
The German invasion of Belgium in May 1940 split the Miliband family in half: Ralph and father Samuel fled to England,[13] while Ralph’s mother Renée and baby sister Nan stayed behind for the duration of the war. They were not reunited until 1950.”
[Wikipedia]
“Miliband’s parents grew up in the impoverished Jewish quarter of Warsaw, Poland. His father Samuel Miliband (1895–1966) was a member of the socialist Jewish Labour Bund in Warsaw.[11]“
[Wikipedia]
“Ralph married Polish-born Marion Kozak in September 1961.[25] She was the daughter of a steel manufacturer, David Kozak, with a Polish Jewish heritage, and also one of his former students at the LSE. They made a home in Primrose Hill, and later in Bolton Gardens, South Kensington, and had two sons, David in 1965 and Edward in 1969.“
So they flee penniless, supposedly, from mainland Europe, and not only get jobs in London; they have a house or apartment (I think house), firstly in the affluent area of Primrose Hill, and then in the extremely affluent/wealthy area of The Boltons, in South Kensington.
Even in the 1950s and 1960s, those were very expensive areas.
Moreover, their two children both go to university, and not just any university but Oxford (Corpus Christi).
Ed Miliband had so much money that, when he became Labour Party leader, Jeremy Paxman actually taxed him in interview with the question as to whether he had ever had trouble paying a bill. He floundered.
Puzzling all the same. We always hear how the “Nazis” confiscated all Jewish property. Does that mean that those Jews had riches stashed in other countries? If so, at least some “Nazi” propaganda would seem to be based on truth…

Dr. Goebbels discussing the fragile peace in Europe, 1938 or 1939.
The Second World War was disastrous in many ways: including the destruction of the German Reich; the reinforcement of Stalinism not only in the Soviet Union but also across both Eastern and Central Europe; the huge human and animal cost in terms of death, injury, and other harm; the destruction of the very concept of “Central Europe” [“Mitteleuropa”] for nearly two generations; the collapse of the civilized European empires across Africa, Asia, and elsewhere; the huge environmental, wildlife and human cost of decolonization; the near-squeezing-out from Europe of European-centred ideology between American finance-capitalism and Marxist-Leninist Sovietism; the 1948 establishment of the state of Israel, and the consequent increase of Jewish wealth, influence and power in the world generally; the shrinking proportion of white Northern Europeans as against the general population of the world.
Today, we again stand on the brink of European and “world” war. If it were to happen, and whether it were to start in the Middle East or Eastern Europe, or even in the Far East, it would be more disastrous in its consequences even than were the previous two “world” wars.
Statesmen and political leaders of all existing states must pull back from the brink.
Labour Friends of Israel Starmer/Reeves/Cooper etc will later launch their version of “stop the boats”, meaning set up “processing centres” in France which will rubberstamp 90% of intending migrant-invaders as “legal migrants”. The few not so “legalized” will continue to use the rubber-boat method of getting here anyway.
The migration-invasion is all part of a System plan, the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan:
The…theory stems from a section of Kalergi’s 1925 book Praktischer Idealismus (“Practical Idealism”), in which he predicted that a mixed race of the future would arise: “The man of the future will be of mixed race. Today’s races and classes[a] will gradually disappear…
…Coudenhove-Kalergi intended to influence Europe’s policies on immigration in order to create a “populace devoid of identity” which would then…be ruled by a Jewish elite.“
[Be aware that Jew-Zionist cabals such as the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] often vandalize Wikipedia in respect of topics such as the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan].
As a matter of fact, the evil “elite” noted on Wikipedia consists largely of persons only part-Jewish, as seen in several recent UK Prime Ministers: David Cameron-Levita, “Boris” Johnson, Theresa May, and some not Jewish at all (though all pro-Jewish lobby and pro-Israel, as with Blair (some people think he in fact is part-Jewish, though), Brown, Liz Truss, Sunak, and now Starmer).

“New Labour” did various things, implemented various policies, mostly wrongheaded in either conception or implementation, or funding, or all three, but it was at least attempting to do things, to solve perceived problems.
I always had the impression about Starmer-Labour, even before it took over the reins of power, that it merely wanted to be in government, but had no real programme (a bit like Cameron-Levita’s government).

Looks as if the situation in that region of Eastern Ukraine is at a tipping point. Russian forces will soon prevail, precipitating a strategic withdrawal or even rout of Kiev-regime forces, and a huge strategic advantage for the Russian side.
Once the Kiev-regime incursion in the Kursk region of Russia, by north-eastern Ukraine, falters and fails, as seems inevitable, the Russian Stavka (high command) will be able to transfer thousands, maybe tens of thousands, of battle-hardened troops back to the Donetsk region front, thus further pressuring the Kiev-regime forces there.

A pretty small audience, too, compared to the Labour conferences of the past (1970s, 1980s).
Of course, in the past, the major Labour figures had weight, and some of them (Denis Healey, Harold Wilson, Michael Foot, Roy Jenkins etc) had genuine intellectual depth. Not that I agreed with much of what they had to say, but they were not dummies, not even that old humbug and hypocrite Michael Foot.
Now look at the top Labour-label idiots! Starmer is the one-eyed man in the country of the blind, and they therefore made him “king for a day”. Angela Rayner (need one say more?). Rachel Reeves. David Lammy, that deadhead…(etc). Shockingly low-quality.

Worth reading. Something like that, or worse, could happen if the rush to war with Russia is not halted. Preventing such a war should be the number one priority for statesmen of all nations.
“Israel’s ‘war on five fronts’: How Jewish state faces all-out conflict against its Middle Eastern enemies after ‘killing hundreds’ in latest Hezbollah strikes as Lebanon accuses it of carrying out an ‘extermination’.
Israel intensified the conflict in the Middle East to new levels today, killing more than 180 people in Lebanon in the latest attacks since military officials declared a ‘new phase’ of war against Hezbollah had begun last week.
Hezbollah in 2006 reportedly had some 15,000 rockets in its arsenal, ‘but more recent unofficial estimates suggest this number has multiplied by almost 10 times,’ said Dina Arakji, associate analyst at UK-based risk consultancy firm Control Risks.
Israel’s Institute for National Security Studies (INSS) corroborates that assessment, estimating that the group’s arsenal counts 150,000 to 200,000 rockets, including ‘hundreds’ of precision missiles and thousands of drones.
Hezbollah also boasts a range of anti-tank and anti-air systems, a fleet of thousands of drones, and dozens of tanks and armoured vehicles, and claims to have up to 100,000 active fighters – though INSS estimates the number is more likely 25,000 to 50,000.
And, like Hamas, Hezbollah has an extensive tunnel network along the Lebanese-Israeli border which serves as a strategic asset for clandestine movement, storage, and guerrilla warfare.
While Jerusalem would assuredly emerge victorious thanks to its technological capabilities and raw numeric advantage in terms of firepower and manpower, Hezbollah would be able to inflict massive damage.
Its terrifying missile and drone arsenal is large enough to quickly overwhelm Israel’s air defences if deployed in earnest, and the thousands upon thousands of Hezbollah fighters that could stream into northern Israel would be continuously supported by well-established air and ground supply routes from its chief backer Iran via Iraq and Syria.
The Islamic Republic has thousands upon thousands of long-range and precision-guided missiles alongside hundreds of thousands of mid-range cruise missiles.
This appears to be the worst-case scenario feared by Israeli defence experts – a coordinated attack in which Iran, Hezbollah and other allies launch wave after wave of missile and drone strikes that overwhelm Israel’s air defences and devastate towns and cities.
But many analysts say that terrifying prospect is unlikely…
…some prominent Israeli officials – including grizzled IDF veterans – warn that Jerusalem’s pursuit of further hostilities could push the Axis of Resistance a step too far.
Itzhak Brik, a former Major General in the IDF, told the Jerusalem Post that a full-scale war with Iran and its proxies could ultimately result in the destruction of the state of Israel.
‘Iran and its proxies have 250,000 missiles, rockets, and drones encircling Israel, which means about 4,000 munitions hitting the Israeli home front on a daily basis.
‘Population centres, Haifa Bay, water and electricity facilities, gas fields [in the Mediterranean Sea], IDF bases, and strategic civilian infrastructure… A regional war can ruin the State of Israel,’ he concluded.“

In a move which has infuriated opposition MPs, government sources indicated ministers would reject calls for a Commons debate and vote on the controversial plan, which was pushed through during the summer while Parliament was in recess.”

The bastard has only been Prime Minister for two months (as of tomorrow), and has already shown, comprehensively, that he is in the wrong job.
People must keep in the forefront of their minds that only 4 people, out of every 20 eligible to vote, voted Labour; and only 4 out of every 12 that did vote, voted Labour.
Starmer-Labour has no real mandate to govern.
Starmer has told the Jew Zelensky that Labour intends to supply the shambolic, brutal dictatorship in Kiev with £3 billion p.a. (supposedly indefinitely) from British taxpayers, while cheating British pensioners out of about £1Bn-£2Bn annually in terms of winter fuel payments.
At least that money will not have to be sent to the Kiev regime for too long— the dictatorship will probably be rolled over within a year or so.

“The Russian ambassador to the USA, Anatoly Antonov, believes that the United States will not be able to “hide behind the ocean” if the situation in Ukraine turns into a global one.
Other statements by Antonov:
– No arms deliveries to Kiev will change the situation on the battlefield.
– Washington’s idea that Russia collides with Europe using the Ukrainian crisis will not pass. – Agreements between Ukraine and the USA regarding the conflict in Ukraine are being implemented “without the knowledge” of Russia. – American officials ignore the obvious atrocities of the OSU: murders, violence against prisoners of war and ordinary people. – The recent visit of Ukrainian officials to America was aimed at “begging” for weapons and money, but also to tighten Washington’s policy against Russia. – The American project “Ukraine” brings huge sacrifices for the Slavic people, but Russia will cope with the new challenge.“

Interesting both in itself and in the fact that Iran is supplying Russia when, in days of yore, the old Soviet Union would have been the one supplying, and Iran (etc) the recipient, whether or not the actual end user.
No detail, of course, as to how many, what type, what payload etc. It is impossible (for me) to assess at all what weight the missiles will have on the battlefield.

The newspaper emphasizes that both soldiers participated in a meeting with US senators in June 2022 and actively advocated for deliveries of F-16s to Kyiv.”

The shortest distance between the Ukrainian border and Moscow is 523 miles; therefore, in principle, Moscow could be hit by such missiles.
The Kiev regime should bear in mind that Russia has many thousands of long-range missiles, including thousands carrying, or capable or carrying, nuclear warheads.

'We're quite bad at talking about Britishness.'@GoodwinMJ says 'there is something incredibly unique and special about coming from these islands' and calls for more celebration of British history after a survey finds there's been a steep drop in national pride. pic.twitter.com/uZLJQtO4t4
“...a steep drop in national pride“? Is that surprising? The population of the UK is now about 20% non-white, in England specifically much higher, and in the major cities such as London and Birmingham the figure is about 50%; in some cities much higher.
The English person finds himself or herself wandering the streets full of non-Europeans, many of which in the UK are predators and/or scavengers.
It becomes impossible for the “average” English person to buy or even rent a property.
A million or more migrant-invaders enter the UK every year, few leave, but about 200,000 real Brits leave the UK each year, desperately seeking a better life, mostly in Anglophone countries such as Australia, New Zealand etc.
What is there to be proud of now? In fact, there are still things of which we can be proud (new transport infrastructure, some rewilding and other environmental programmes etc), but nothing that really touches the heart; and socially, educationally, culturally, the country is sliding all the time now.
The UK is slowly sliding to a kind of social/cultural/civil war of sorts, made complex and sluggish by a number of factors.

I hate to sound like a conspiracy theorist but I believe the true figures are hidden from us on purpose.
Emrah Demirci, of Windmill Road, Cheshunt, was put behind bars after appearing at St Albans Crown Court today (Friday, April 14).”
Officially, there are about 11,000 “foreign” convicts in English prisons (i.e. in England and Wales), but if you include the ones who are really foreign but who hold UK passports, the figure is probably nearer to 30,000, maybe more. If you include all non-whites in UK prisons, that figure would rise to about 50,000, probably more.
Elimination or deportation of all non-Brit (non-real-Brit) prisoners would therefore free up about half of all the spaces in the prisons.
This has been the situation for many many years. Even when I was a Bar pupil nearly 35 years ago, most crime, the vast majority, in the London area, was being committed by non-whites, judging by the defendants seen in (and defended in) the London magistrates’ courts and Crown Courts.

The major operations of the Ukrainian army, including the invasion of the Kursk region, were organized primarily by Vladimir Zelensky with the aim of regularly demonstrating active military activity in order to obtain further financial support from the West, said retired American intelligence officer Scott Ritter. “
Zelensky is very concerned about the political component of this conflict, in terms of maintaining the flow of money and weapons to Kiev. He therefore often looks for opportunities to conduct military operations that will help promote the theory that Ukraine is capable of permanent resistance, which contradicts with reality ,” Ritter stated.
According to his words, the disastrous consequences of the previous operations clearly showed that the situation in the Kursk region should end with the defeat of Ukraine.“

Trump is still the better choice in terms of preventing a nuclear war, which for me is the number one priority.
Obviously, Kamala Harris is basically an idiot and a mere puppet of the “Deep State”, so she will, if elected President, be controlled by more powerful minds than her own, which might be the better idea… (and I note that the US now seems to be reining back on the “war with Russia” moves— the USA would be a scarred, irradiated and lawless dystopia indeed, were its 50-100 top cities to be blasted off the face of the Earth).
I do wonder about the mentality of intending Harris voters though, even accepting that Trump is not really a good candidate either. I should say that it comes down to perceived identity: blacks and other non-whites will vote Kamala Harris because she is non-white, simple as that. Likewise, crazed feminism is so strong in the USA, and has been for at least 50 years, that many women will vote for Kamala Harris merely because she is a woman.
Yeah – this was the catalyst for me to think "if they lied so blatantly about this, they lied to us about everything." Including WW2, Hitler was never the bad guy then, just like Putin isn't now.

Mass immigration, migration-invasion, and the Rwanda plan
NEW POST. Why we need Rwanda. Shocking new statistics on the sheer scale of Britain's illegal migration crisishttps://t.co/R0ciMBTXGh
"Britain's asylum system is dangerously broken. It puts the welfare of sex offenders, terrorists and acid attackers above the welfare of innocent civilians and even genuine refugees. The Rwanda scheme will do nothing to fix these fundamental problems."
The problem is that, mainly as a down-the-line consequence of the disastrous, catastrophic Second World War and the way it ended (with the European empires unable or unwilling to continue to rule vast tracts of Africa —both sub-Saharan and North Africa—, Asia and elsewhere), the world fell, after 1945, into a downward spiral consisting of overpopulation, wars, civil wars, shambolic and corrupt native rule, environmental degradation etc.
This became Europe’s problem when the instability of much of the Middle East and South Asia, as well as Afghanistan and much of black Africa, sent millions and tens of millions of both “bogus” and “genuine” refugees westward and northward to Europe. Africa’s northern barriers— Libya, Tunisia and Morocco— were penetrated, the fall of Gaddafi being key.
At the same time, Africa and parts of South Asia (notably, Pakistan) and the Middle East were experiencing a population explosion (by births) not mirrored anywhere else.
The UK, for example, has suffered a huge population increase in the past 20-30 years, but almost all of that has been via immigration, and births to recent immigrants, not births to native white British people or even to those non-whites who entered the country decades ago.
It is largely a waste of time, effort and money trying to separate “genuine” from “bogus” refugees (economic migrants etc). The two groups are very similar in type or in most respects, and pose similar problems.
The fact is that the world is in such a state, and now has so many possibilities of long-distance travel, that in principle, on the basis of the post-WW2 legal framework, literally hundreds of millions (800M is a figure often quoted) could make their way to Europe, including the UK (for many a preferred destination).
Those vast hordes could all, or almost all, make a legally-arguable case to be considered as “genuine refugees”, a fact confirmed by the proportion presently allowed to stay in the UK once having set foot on British shores and after assessment— 80%.
Of course, few of the remaining 20% are deported either.
Most immigrants to the UK are not “asylum-seekers” and/or purported “refugees” anyway, but are “lawful migrants”, i.e. “students”, “family members”, supposed spouses or “fiancees”, “highly skilled workers” (Indians who can work a computer) and so on.
Let us take that 800 million figure as correct (it may even be an underestimate). Even if only 10% were to come to the UK (and it could be 90%), that would mean a doubling and more of the population; moreover, an influx of “refugees” most of whom would be unable even to speak basic English, few of whom have any marketable skills, and many of whom are actively hostile to white European culture and civilization, despite wanting to live in Europe.
UK society is under stress and strain already from mass immigration. It could not take 80M more immigrants, or even 8M more, without descending into either chaos or socio-political upheaval. At present, the overall immigrant influx (not just supposed “refugees”) numbers about a million a year; supposedly “only” about 700,000-800,000 “net” because there are a couple of hundred thousand leavers every year, but most of those leaving are real white Brits emigrating to what they think might be a better life, or a better retirement, in Australasia, Canada, or European countries such as France and Spain.
Very few of the ~1M immigrants each year are of any use to the UK. A few are, true, though mostly in unskilled or partly-skilled occupations that could be done either by Brits or, soon, by AI, robots etc.
The best that can be hoped for is that the bulk of those entering the UK every year are merely neutral or parasitic, rather than actively hostile and/or criminal.
The whole question of immigration is not some side-issue. It affects the income, life-chances, living standards, food, water, shelter and safety of every single person in the UK.
10 years from now, there might be as many as 10M more people in the UK by reason of immigration. A population of the size of a city such as London, albeit spread over the UK, and populated by alien hordes the majority of which will be, at best, parasitic. Is that possible, or sustainable? No.
As to the present UK government policy of deportation to Rwanda, I have several problems with it, the first of which is around numbers.
It seems that, if it becomes operational, the Rwanda flights will carry, at most, a few hundred failed “asylum-seekers” per week. In a situation where even the “small boat” invasion across the Channel amounts to several thousand per week, the Rwanda flights will only deal with about 10% of the “small boats” invasion problem. The Rwanda policy does not even touch the larger migration-invasion, the “legal” (lawful) sort. The “small boats” are, at most 20%, probably 10%, of the entire problem.
That is on the basis that the Rwanda flights will start, that they will continue, and that they will carry more than a handful of deportees.
Another question arising is the capacity of Rwanda, a small country (somewhat larger than Wales, but with 4x the population), to absorb deportees on a large scale, most of whom will not even be from Africa, or that part of Africa.
Rwanda was the scene of the Hutu-Tutsi genocide of 1994; it has a history of ethnic tension.
What happens, in such a country, one of 14M people, densely packed (the most densely-populated on mainland Africa, and the fifth most densely-packed in the world excepting city-states, small islands etc, at over 1,400 persons per square mile— the UK is about 722 per sq. mile, England about 1,100 p.s.m.) when thousands, tens of thousands of foreign deportees arrive? At some point, there may be a local backlash.
What happens if the Rwanda government changes, or changes policy? Are their words, or treaties, reliable? Have they ever been, in Africa or indeed anywhere?
In any case, the Rwanda plan will apply only to (some) deportees from the small percentage called “illegal” migrants; the vast majority of migrants to the UK are notionally “legal” or lawful, so will not be subject to deportation at all.
The Rwanda plan is little more than a public relations exercise in an election year. Cosmetic only. Even if “successful” (operational), it will deal with only, perhaps, 1% of the overall mass immigration problem.
Matt Goodwin (see tweet and blog article above) sees the Rwanda plan as at least being a statement of intent, but it is doubtful whether it can be scaled-up, expanded to other countries in Africa or elsewhere.
The main question remains: how to stop over a million non-Europeans entering the UK alone each year? How to reduce the proportion of non-Europeans in the UK (and in Europe as a whole), and how to, eventually, create an ethnostate with the idea of laying the ground for a much later “super-people”?

Every word and expression from Penny Mordaunt needs to seen in the context of a leadership challenge. Imo she's the most likely victor, notwithstanding the fact she has persistently proved she is utterly clueless. And quite mad.
That is somewhere around my own view of Penny Mordaunt. Her trump card, amid all the Jews and non-whites in the Conservative Party MP ranks, is that she is actually English. I cannot see much else to commend her as a potential Prime Minister, though there is nothing too damaging against her either.
In fact, though, if it turns out that the Conservative Party is reduced to about 50 MPs this year or by early 2025, it will not much matter whether she becomes leader of that little band or not.
In any case, her seat at Portsmouth North is a “bellwether”, i.e. usually votes the same way as the winning side in general elections (in the case of Portsmouth North, since 1966), so Ms. Mordaunt is quite likely to lose her seat in 2024/2025, though her high profile may enable her to avoid that fate. In 2019, her vote-share was 61.4%; the Labour vote a mere 27%. Labour has not exceeded 40% there since its win in 2005.
“Russian troops have reportedly pushed through Ukrainian lines to take the strategic town of Ocheretyne in Donetsk – the latest scoop for Vladimir Putin‘s forces amid a recent string of gains on the battlefield.
Videos shared on the Telegram messaging app by Russian military bloggers appeared to show the Russian tricolour flying atop a damaged building in the town that once was home to 30,000 Ukrainians.
The town was lost after Ukrainian units fled their positions under heavy fire, Msocow’s defence ministry claimed, as a Ukrainian army spokesperson said the invaders were ‘using the entire arsenal of weapons available… including chemical poisons,’ in their assault.
The capture of Ocheretyne, a local rail hub, is a key milestone on the way to the city of Pokrovsk some 20 miles further west – an intersection of important roads and a railway junction that forms the linchpin of Ukraine’s military operations in the region.
Elsewhere, Russian divisions are pummelling towns on the outskirts of Chasiv Yar, a strategically important hill town that would allow them to move toward Sloviansk and Kramatorsk, key cities Ukraine controls in the eastern region of Donetsk.
And missiles and drones continue to batter energy infrastructure and residential areas in Ukraine‘s second-largest city, Kharkiv, which is only about 20 miles from the Russian border.
Moscow‘s soldiers are pushing forward at several points along the 600-mile front – perhaps to maximise their gains over their depleted and war weary adversaries before new supplies of Western munitions arrive.“

As I have predicted on the blog, there will probably be a stunning Russian advance across all of Eastern Ukraine in 2024-2025. It might even end the war, either by collapse of the Zelensky dictatorship or by a Russian victory (defined as quasi-permanent occupation of all of Eastern Ukraine and the coasts of the Black Sea and Sea of Azov).
Western arms and ammunition may delay that Russian victory, but the Kiev regime is running out of soldiers.

“Whoever supplies weapons wants war,” AfD leader in Thuringia against arming Kyiv.
Three-quarters of the residents of East German Thuringia oppose arms supplies to Ukraine; the right-wing Alternative for Germany may win the land elections in this land for the first time. The head of the regional branch of the AfD, Bjorn Höcke, demanded that Germany stop supplying weapons to Kyiv and organize negotiations.
“My grandparents told me what war is, so I say that this war must be ended as quickly as possible and at any cost,” Höcke said on Die Welt. He accused his opponent’s party, the CDU, of inciting the conflict. “The war rhetoric of the CDU will not lead to real progress,” “we need Germany as a peacekeeping power.”
He pointed out that Russia did not shy away from negotiations, results were achieved in Istanbul in 2022, but the West and Germany did not want them, and chose military supplies rather than diplomacy. “Whoever supplies the weapons does not want peace, he wants war,” Höcke concluded.”

IN AUGUST 2023, 70 PERCENT DOUBTED THE POSITIVE OUTCOME OF THE CONFLICT FOR KYIV.
ONLY eight percent of Germans believe that Ukraine can win a confrontation with Russia thanks to Western weapons. This was shown by a survey commissioned by the German television station ZDF. Also: that 82 percent of respondents are skeptical about the possibility of Ukraine winning the conflict with the Russian Federation. ZDF indicated that in August of last year, the share of skeptics in Germany was 70 percent, and those who believed in a positive outcome for Kyiv were 21 percent.
The same survey showed that 42% of Germans surveyed believe that the West should provide more [humanitarian] aid to Ukraine.“

“Kiev and the West are tired of war and of each other.
What a small group of objective, but long-maligned observers in the West warned about for a long time, is now happening: Ukraine and the West are losing the war against Russia.
The strategy of using Ukraine to either isolate and slowly suffocate Russia or to defeat and degrade it in a proxy war is approaching its predictable disastrous end.”

To adapt and substitute the supposed words of Boris Savinkov re. non-Russians in the “Russian” Revolution, “Muslims, Jews…where are the English?!“
Look at most of the “alt-right” msm and/or social media “controlled opposition” types, the so-called “populists”, including those who make money, or try to make money, out of being pseudo-national and/or anti-Islam or anti-Islamist: the academic, Matt Goodwin, is a rising star of that tendency; others include the notorious Douglas Murray, Katie Hopkins, “Tommy Robinson”, Paul Golding and most of the “Britain First” crowd, and Anne Marie Waters of the now-defunct “For Britain” group. Then you have Farage, Tice, and their UKIP/Brexit Party/Reform UK parties.
They vary. Some are national figures with considerable public support, and are welcomed on msm platforms (e.g. Farage, and Matt Goodwin); others are marginal (e.g. Paul Golding of “Britain First”, Laurence Fox and his tiny Reclaim Party, and others). All, however, speak in favour of Israel, in favour of the UK Jewish lobby, and against any enemies (especially Islamist enemies) of Israel.
Most are also vehemently hostile to what they are pleased to call the “far right” (anyone social-national).
As for me, I stand for the British people, for European humanity, and for European culture and civilization. I oppose any enemies of European culture and civilization.
One can see, though, which tendency or interest-group is constantly trying to get European Christendom to fight the Islamic world (and not just Islamism).
“Alexandra Lesley Phillips (born 26 December 1983) is a British journalist and former politician. She served as a Brexit Partymember of the European Parliament (MEP) for the South East England constituency from 2019 to 2020. She was the second candidate on the party’s list for the constituency after party leader Nigel Farage.[1] Phillips was previously head of media at the UK Independence Party (UKIP), which she left in September 2016. She was a GB News presenter between June 2021 and September 2022. In February 2023, Phillips joined Reform UK.
Alexandra Lesley Phillips was born on 26 December 1983 in Gloucester.[2] She has an older brother. She is Jewish.
On 2 August 2019, Phillips was selected as the Brexit Party’s prospective parliamentary candidate (PPC) for Southampton Itchen.[15] However, on 11 November 2019, the Brexit Party announced that it would not stand in incumbent Conservative seats.[16] The following day, Phillips announced that she would not be voting in the general election as she had been “disenfranchised” by her party.[17] Her term as MEP ended in January 2020 when the UK withdrew from the EU.[18] In February 2023, she joined Reform UK (successor to the Brexit Party) as a policy adviser to party leader Richard Tice.[19]
Prior to joining UKIP, Phillips had worked as a local journalist for ITV, and later BBC Wales.[5]
Phillips presented a twice-weekly show on talkRADIO and is a contributor to The Daily Telegraph.[20] She co-hosted an afternoon programme on GB News with Simon McCoy between June and August 2021.[21][22] After McCoy moved to the breakfast show, she was given her own show, The Afternoon Agenda, in August 2021.[23] She left GB News in September 2022 after her show was cancelled.[24] In July 2023 Alex began presenting a Saturday afternoon programme on TalkTV. She now co hosts a show with Kevin O’Sullivan on talk tv daily.”

Look at that one profile: UKIP, Brexit Party, Reform UK, ITV, BBC Wales, TalkRadio, GB News, Talk TV, and the Daily Telegraph.
The only reason a slight majority think that life is better now than in the 1960s and 1970s is because a constant drip-feed of propaganda tells them so. Most of the respondents would have been born after 1980 or 1975, of course.
The 1970s in the UK were a lot better than most people today will believe, despite some (actually quite limited) industrial unrest etc.
As for the 1960s, I remember them well, having been born in 1956. Fairly OK in most respects (I should add that I spent the last three years of that decade in Australia (Mosman/Cremorne, in Sydney), and that was another world then, though the devil is always in the detail: those were —and are— among the better suburbs of the city.
Looking at the above tracker graph, the Labour intended vote has been fairly stable (within parameters) for about a year or so, whereas the Conservative Party intended vote has steadily declined for what seems to have been most of the past year. They’re toast…
Were the Con percentage to decline even one point, to 18%, even without an increase in any of the other numbers, the number of Con MPs would reduce to only 28.
When you see that, and factor in the political intentions of those under 40, and under 30, and the fact that the Con core vote consists largely of the retired, indeed of those over 70, over 80, you can see that this really could spell the end of the Conservative Party.
In fact, even were the Conservative Party to retain 100, even 150, MPs, it would be all but irrelevant in a Commons with 450+ Labour MPs, and a Labour majority of maybe 300 or more. That would hit Con Party funding and ability to come back from the debacle.
I was just musing on such ideas as I carefully drove a few miles this morning on a rural A-road, its surfacing poor and dotted with troughs and potholes which one had to navigate around, as in some areas of Russia and Ukraine (or, in pre-EU-membership days, in Bulgaria, as I recall from 2001). The decline of Britain is seen even in mundane areas such as road maintenance.

How strange. The little Indian money-juggler did not see fit to “condemn” the slaughter, by the Israeli forces, of tens of thousands of women an d children in Gaza, nor the unprovoked attack by Israel on the diplomatic and consular offices of Iran in Syria, an attack on two sovereign states.
Like 90% of “British” politicians, if you want to call him that, Sunak is bought and paid for…
“The UK is trapped in a cycle of political, social and financial turmoil. But there is a way out.
If there is any consensus in our otherwise fractured, toxic national debate it is that we cannot go on like this. Our economy is in crisis, exemplified by an annual £100bn shortfall in public and private investment, which must be lifted decisively for Britain to break out of today’s triple whammy of stagnant growth, productivity and living standards.
Society reels from alarming gaps in the provision of crucial public services and the yawning unfairness in the distribution of income, wealth and opportunity.
Our democracy and state seem incapable of acknowledging the full extent of these deformities, let alone adequately responding to them.
Our international standing has plummeted at a time of geopolitical peril. A transformative response is an imperative.
My new book, This Time No Mistakes: How to Remake Britain, tries to address the origins of this interlinked crisis – and offer a feasible way out. Nothing is immutable. We are agents of our own destiny.
The heart of the problem is a misconception about how capitalism and society work. Capitalism must be managed and regulated to work for the common good, just as society has to be curated to provide fairness and opportunity for all. Crucially, the vitality of the two are interdependent. Capitalism must be organised so it provides economic ladders that every individual can climb while a social contract must offer a floor below which they cannot fall. Britain’s problem is that the Conservative party, in power for all but 13 of the last 45 years, does not accept these truths or interdependencies. Worse, even if it did, neither the dominant culture and practise of our capitalism, nor the structure of our democracy, state and media would have made it easy to fashion the necessary responses.
Conservative ideology has been in thrall to the contrary proposition that markets will self-organise to produce the best economic and social outcomes propelled by individual energy and ambition alone. The British state confers near-continual unfettered power to the Conservatives, and so in their view needs no reform. Yet the reality is that capitalism’s unchecked rollercoaster rhythms create instability, inequity and monopoly and so must be managed and counteracted. Nor can capitalism be relied upon to best organise how firms are governed and ownership responsibilities discharged; how workers are properly trained and paid; or to ensure that fair dealing is the norm between firms and their customers. Of necessity enter the state, much better designed than at present.
The UK has its back against the wall to a degree unparalleled in its peacetime history, facing economic problems more acute than the successive sterling crises of the 20th century or the trade union militancy that prompted the general strike of 1926 or winter of discontent in 1979. The level of our national debt has climbed alarmingly over the past quarter of a century, with no compensating increase in public assets, so that the net worth of the public sector – assets less liabilities – is more dangerously in the red than any other country bar Portugal. Similarly, more than 20 years of imports of goods and services exceeding exports has meant our international debts have climbed by £1.5tn, so that our balance sheet – positive for centuries as a result of empire and as pioneer of the Industrial Revolution – is now dangerously negative. Fifty companies that could have been in the FTSE 100 were sold abroad between 1997 and 2017; we are running out of assets to sell. At the same time almost every metric on the economic and social dashboard – whether social mobility or the number of new companies launching on the London stock market – is flashing amber or red.
Rightwing ideological maxims, initiated by Margaret Thatcher in 1979 and continued by her imitators, have led to a sequence of policy disasters – monetarism, wholesale financial deregulation, austerity and then Brexit. Far from launching a renaissance, Thatcher was the author of pernicious decline. The doctrine is that the private “I” is morally superior to anything public, that the state’s “coercive” proclivities must be reined in to promote a “free” market, that regulation and taxation stifle enterprise, that unless ferociously means-tested and minimalist, welfare creates a huge underclass of undeserving “shirkers”, and that good public services follow from a successful economy rather than being integral to it.
Little of the policy that flows from this jumble of ideology and prejudice has any evidence base. As the totality of the failure has unfolded, so the Conservative party’s unity has fragmented into the blind alleys of libertarianism and the debacle of the Truss government, ongoing phobia about all things European and the temptations of anti-immigrant, anti-foreigner, anti-woke populism. It has become an ungovernable federation of cults.
In the 1980s, monetarism did not contain inflation as billed, but rather prompted mass unemployment, hollowed out much of our productive economy – manufacturing employment nearly halved in a decade – and eviscerated public investment. The areas so scarred by the experience would, 30 years later, vote for Brexit. Financial deregulation led to the fastest rise in private indebtedness in our history, propelling illusory economic growth buoyed not by investment and innovation but a flood of credit. It could only end in tears. Writing The State We’re In in the mid-1990s, to warn of an impending tragedy without a change of course, I did not anticipate the great financial crisis of 2007/8, felt most acutely in Britain, although it was obvious the whole rickety structure could only fail in some way. Nor did I imagine that Britain would repeat the failures with the economically illiterate budgetary tightening of austerity and then torch the one successful economic policy asset it had remaining, EU membership, which had boosted GDP by 10%. Yet such was the grip of the right on the Tory party that their bad ideas, once unthinkable, became our lived reality.
And Britain’s liberal left cannot absolve itself of blame. If Conservatism has over-emphasised the “I”, the left has not yet found an electorally attractive way of making the case for “We” – or, better still, blending it with the “I” to create a political philosophy, and attractive policies that flow from it, that would appeal to the majority. My proposition is that the “We” should be built on fusing an ethic of socialism grounded in profound human attachment to fellowship, mutuality and co-operation with the ethic of progressive or new liberalism that emerged 150 years ago as a challenge to classic liberalism. Essentially, liberal thinkers such as Thomas Hill Green and Leonard Hobhouse (forerunners of progressive liberals Keynes and Beveridge) argued that individuals and society were in a constant iterative relationship. Individuals shape society, society shapes individuals, and each and everyone has an obligation to make the social whole as strong as possible, which they are obliged to recognise even while they pursue their own ambitions and interests. Green called this the politics of obligation, which not only the great reforming 1905-15 Liberal government would follow, but later the Keynesian economic revolution and Beveridge’s welfare state.
Labour, as Tony Crosland diagnosed in the 1950s in The Future of Socialism, was founded on being all things leftist to everyone to encourage as big a membership as possible. It was a coalition of Marxists to gradualist Fabians – so laying the foundation for more than 100 years of feuding. Only the ethic of socialism, which has deep roots in western philosophy, the great religions and the Enlightenment, stands the test of time. It was Aristotle who declared that those who deny the primacy of a healthy society to their individual wellbeing are either “a beast or a gods”, while the father of British empiricism, Francis Bacon, would write “wealth is like muck. It is not much good but if it be spread.”
Progressive liberalism and an ethic of socialism are not incompatible value systems: they are complementary. Progressive liberalism leans into the individualism that propels capitalism while accepting social obligations; an ethic of socialism leans into the foundation of a social contract and infrastructure of justice that underpin the sinews of a good society. Ideological socialism’s hostility to capital and liberalism’s association with the upper class and upper middle class initially made a rapprochement between the two impossible. Today those obstacles have faded. It was Tony Blair who saw the opportunity that could be grasped, and perhaps his best contribution to progressive politics was his rewriting of Labour’s infamous high socialist clause IV to articulate the fusion. New Labour may have shrunk from the full implications; it will fall to successors to make it live.
The vision is of a “we society” – a high investment economy populated by companies that take their social responsibilities seriously, underpinned by a rejuvenated social contract in which health, housing, education, justice, welfare and the labour market all combine to offer every individual the chance fully to participate in work, social and civic life. No more lost Einsteins and Marie Curies.
The starting point must be to raise public investment decisively and so “crowd in” private investment radically to lift productivity and real wages (wages adjusted for inflation). Three targets select themselves – the vital need to close the disgraceful gap in productivity, infrastructure and economic performance between London and the regions; the commitment to achieve net zero by 2050 given the alarming rise in global temperatures; and the need to lift research and development spending dramatically. To move the dial in all these areas will require public borrowing for such investment to rise by at least 1% of GDP, or between £25bn– £30bn, with fiscal rules organised around real-world, rather than accounting, goals. The financial markets will be reassured if they know that the investment they are supporting is strategic and thought through. Britain can break out of its low growth trap without financial mishap.
Shibboleths about taxation need to be put to one side. Taxation represents the “we”, and as long as the demands on all sections of society are reasonable – involving at present a greater contribution by the wealthy, whose assets in relation to GDP have doubled since 1980 – there is no evidence that tax receipts at today’s level or even marginally higher will damage growth. What matters is that Britain does what it must to lift its growth rate. A “growth commission” should establish rolling targets for public investment and be held to account to achieving them – the means to vitally needed change.
Importantly, the savings and investment system must be reshaped to drive credit and equity investment to support the financial needs of the companies big and small that we need to feed off the surge in public investment. Two young institutions – the UK Infrastructure Bank and British Business Bank – must be turbocharged so they can operate at the multibillion-pound scale necessary. Banks must be incentivised to supply business loans on much less onerous and flexible terms, and the pension system must be boosted and organised to invest in fast-growing companies based on frontier new technologies. A big multibillion private sector wealth fund – already mooted by some in the City – must work in concert with a public sector wealth fund to invest in what will be the great companies of tomorrow, ensuring they stay British-owned to anchor our economy.
The law needs to ensure that companies make their prime objective the achievement of great social purposes rather than short-term self-enrichment. This should especially apply to all our regulated utilities. The best in British business and our utilities have already begun to move in this direction, putting achievement of great purpose at their heart: it needs to become the general rule. Competition policy must be stepped up so that there is much less incentive and capacity to rig prices in monopoly or quasi monopoly positions. This is particularly important for those businesses and sectors whose business models depend on strength in “intangibles” – intellectual property, human skills, data and digital advantages, research – whose growth has been cramped by so many financial and regulatory biases that favour incumbents. British capitalism, in short, needs to be repurposed both to grow and to work for the common good.
No less essential is to repair the threadbare social contract. The new risks and inequalities that every citizen will confront in an ever faster moving environment, along with new centres of prosperity, need to be mitigated and managed to ensure the new economic world is underwritten by great education, health and housing – and income support when for any reason people find it impossible to work. The workplace needs to be reconfigured so employees are conferred dignity and voice, with trade unions as active partners of purposeful companies. There must be a proper system of social care. We cannot have children going hungry in their millions, with schools, training institutions and further education colleges allowed to decay. And lastly, housing must be restored as a central pillar of the good society. Council tax, the mortgage market, social housing and the system of tenure all require a major overhaul. It would all be integral to a British-style New Deal.
The British state that perforce must catalyse and lead all this must be reformed and recast. It needs the capacity to act strategically, but with far stronger mechanisms for being held accountable for what it does. Parliament must recover its capacity to deliberate and scrutinise along with making law. The reduction of MPs to mere lobby-fodder ciphers to service the transient whims of an unprecedented churn of ministers is surely one reason why nearly 100 this parliament – a record – have been sanctioned for gross lapses in their behaviour. Our second chamber, the Lords, must be democratised. Ethical standards, from conduct in office to political donations, need to be respected and enforced. Boris Johnson’s abuses cannot be allowed again. The independence of the judiciary must be better entrenched. The tone and content of our national conversation, framed by a dominant and frequently hysterically biased rightwing media magnified by social media, needs to be hosed down – a revival in public service broadcasting and regulation of content is a necessity.
Britain has the potential to become an envied European economic and social model. Indeed to re-engage with the European Union is another indispensable part of recovery. The case is not only economic, recovering lost markets, increasing trade intensity, and stimulating falling inward investment that are costing a lost 5% of GDP every year (and growing) but geopolitical. Britain must be “in the room” where the great decisions on Ukraine, defence, security, energy, climate emergency, and the regulatory standards are taken that will configure our continent. Empire and Commonwealth have gone; the 21st century will be shaped by three great blocs – the US, China and the EU. To be alone to assert a meaningless “sovereignty” to assuage the fantasies of rightwing populists is madness.
The emerging rightwing nexus of libertarian tax-cutters and immigration-phobes, so ready to put achieving those aims above the rule of law and respect for human rights, is unfit to govern. At the next election Britain needs a government that will sure-footedly reshape our capitalism and society to promote growth, enfranchisement and a country at ease with itself – respecting rather than deifying its past better to build the future. We can act to shape our destiny. This time no mistakes.“

The most glaring near-omission is that Hutton scarcely mentions the fact that a million non-whites a year are entering the UK. Most of them are —at best— useless, and most of them are staying, and breeding. That alone would destroy any hope of his carefully-constructed “better-society” blueprint.
Hutton prefers just to look down his nose at what he terms “immigration-phobes“. That may cut it with dinner-party attendees wherever Hutton lives (Hampstead? Richmond? Blackheath? Muswell Hill?), but not with the British people. Things are too serious for that, and impact them directly as well as indirectly.
Hutton seems to think that the importation into the UK of a million persons per year, mostly from backward areas of the world, mostly unskilled, often not even speaking English, is either unimportant or actually desirable. He ignores the fact that few are really useful, many (most) parasitic, and not a few actively hostile and/or criminal.
Hutton also uses the term “rightwing“, which is both anachronistic and imprecise; almost meaningless. Disappointing in a former Master of Hertford College, Oxford.
Hutton is a dyed-in-the-wool EU-remainer. He cannot see any alternative to the UK being just a province of an EU bloc. There is at least one alternative which might fly, but he has obviously not considered it (joining with Russia in loose alliance, while keeping amiable relations with the European Union states and even with the USA etc).
The third problem I have with Hutton’s view is that he lays out broadly what he thinks should happen, but without saying how it might happen. How do we get from here to there?

An interesting Twitter/X account not seen previously by me.
Washington Post: We Had to Destroy the Democracy to Save It.
The Post reports on how in Europe, the secret police are putting under surveillance political parties that are growing by advocating policies popular with voters.
The tweeter’s reference is to Germany (inter alia). Nearly 80 years after the disastrous end of the Second World War, Germany is still, to some extent, an occupied country.
Around 5,000 migrants have crossed the Channel in small boats so far this year – which represents an increase of almost a third on the first quarter last year. pic.twitter.com/twc9IJvBpe
5,000 in the three months of the year which have the roughest seas in the Channel. That probably means anything up to 50,000, maybe even more, by the end of 2024.
That figure is, however, dwarfed by the total of so-called “legal” migration: “high-skilled workers” (Indians who can work a computer), “fiances/fiancees”, “family members”, “students”, and the rest.
The two figures together will almost certainly top a million in 2024 alone. Totally unsustainable. British society will come apart by reason of the continuing migration invasion.
The most terrifying thing about Scotland’s hate speech laws are that they appear to have been written by a 5 year old
Or perhaps suggesting they use the word “incitement” would be deemed hate speech pic.twitter.com/iBBBHTE1PZ
The SNP’s cartoon brand of Scottish “nationalism” has no problem with the leaders of two of the three main parties “up there” being of Pakistani origin, has no problem with a future “independent” Scotland (which will probably never exist anyway) being part of the EU and so largely ruled and regulated by that supranational body, no problem (in reality) with Scotland continuing to be a part of NATO (and so not “independent” in terms of military or naval strategy), and no problem with the Scots being slowly or not so slowly replaced in their own land by hordes of “blacks and browns”.
In short, the SNP is both a fake and a political bad joke. Its two previous leaders have faced, or are facing, criminal charges, and its brief time in the sun (from 2015 to 2024) looks set to descend into night.

Just imagine— after GE 2024, that thick Israel-puppet, Lammy, is set to be the new Foreign Secretary. Unglaublich…
Transgenderism gains additional protections because it is a male sexual rights movement campaigning for epistemological abolitionism and cultural nihilism – but “hate speech” laws are illiberal, censorious and designed to chill any discourse and must be repealed in full.
Mirabile dictu…I find myself in agreement with both J.K. Rowling and once-well-known tweeter Robbie Travers… and on the same day.
This is best rebuttal I've read yet to the absurd bien-pensant notion that because Scotland’s new hate crime law is vague and the guidance around it is contradictory, it probably won't do much. No: this vagueness is the biggest problem https://t.co/chOgWvPBWQ
Vagueness is the enemy of a “society under law”. I myself was convicted in November 2023 of breaching the Communications Act 2003, s.127, a law so unjust and poorly-drafted that the Law Commission has formally recommended its repeal.
I was supposed to have published, on this blog, a number of remarks, comments, and cartoons that were “grossly offensive“, and mostly, it was said, about Jewish behaviour.
Truth was irrelevant. Harm was also irrelevant (the Prosecution and the trial judge both accepted from the start that there was no “victim” in the case, and that no actual “harm” had been done to anyone at all).
The prosecution was procured (God knows how…) by the malicious cabal known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, a very small but very well-funded Jewish-Zionist group that has admitted, both on Twitter/X and its own website, that it has been trying to have me prosecuted on various bases for 7+ years; I think closer to 10 years.
In fact, the “CAA” has had only a notional victory.
Yes, the “CAA” managed to apply political pressure sufficient to make compliant police box-tickers annoy me with pointless and supposedly “voluntary” interviews in 2017 and 2021 (after the “CAA” made completely false accusations against me); yes, the “CAA” also managed to have political pressure applied to the Crown Prosecution Service so that I was eventually prosecuted (in 2023); yes, I have been inconvenienced by the whole process (though never arrested) and, yes, I was later convicted in the magistrates’ court, having defended myself alone and unaided from all those manifestations of Britain’s new poundland police state.
Having said that, the “CAA” has obviously been disappointed at the ultimate result. My sentence (15 days or part-days of so-called “rehabilitation” under the Probation Service, and a costs order amounting to £734) was clearly less severe than they wanted. It is a nuisance, and one that inconveniences me, yes, but no more.
The “CAA” has been so miffed at the sentence passed upon me that it and its Jewish supporters have not even tweeted about how I have been sentenced (they did tweet when I was convicted last year). Not one tweet from the “CAA” itself about me since the sentence was handed down, and only a couple (I saw 2 or 3 tweets) from stray frustrated “CAA” supporters saying how “derisory” was my sentence. I myself would not say that: the sentence was and is a nuisance, and has caused minor inconvenience, but not excessive inconvenience.
I suppose that the “CAA” will continue to push the police and CPS (when will the office bods of those two organizations realize that they are being “played”?), but I doubt that the “CAA” will get very far; we shall see.
Anyone wishing to help me out with the Court costs order mentioned can do so via https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J. Thank you. If you cannot donate, please share the link on social media etc. Thank you.
I have already had a few meetings with the rather charming ladies of the Probation Service.
As for the supposedly “grossly offensive” blog posts which founded the November 2023 conviction, they are still extant and capable of being seen. I think that I shall not provide a link to them, in the circumstances, but they are all (all 5 of them) still on the blog, and will remain there indefinitely.
The blog continues to be published daily or near-daily and, while the conviction will, in effect, require me to be more cautious in terms of tone, the material covered will remain much the same, except that I hope to present more from the world of ideas and policy, and perhaps slightly less in terms of mere comment.
The sentencing district judge (on 14 March 2024) refused the Prosecution’s application for a Criminal Behaviour Order against me (which might have restricted my free speech on the blog even further), because it would have been pointless, and because it was so badly-drafted; pathetically poorly, in fact.
I am now under no greater onus, from the strictly legal point of view, than I was when this whole legal and juridical circus started in early 2023.
So there it is…

From today, in Scotland, it is a crime to use what others perceive to be “threatening or abusive” behaviour which stirs up hatred on the basis of "protected characteristics", incl. what's said in your own home & which will go on your criminal record. This is not an April Fools.
I hope that there are Scottish people who will not only oppose these police-state measures but who will also identify the most guilty behind the new repression.

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

Despite 2 years of false reporting by the UK/US msm, the truth is slowly dawning: Russia must and will win this war. Ukraine (the Kiev regime) is a fake state and a failed state, and is fast running out of arms, ammunition and, most of all, soldiers.

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

If you don't believe in a God who sanctifies human life, writes Matthew Parris, there are no good arguments against pressuring sick people into assisted suicide. A hell of a piece for Good Friday. NB—he's an atheist, and thinks pressuring sick people to kill themselves is good. pic.twitter.com/xjdXeRfdjU

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

In January-February, a series of thousands of demonstrations against right-wing radicalism swept across Germany. Against this background, the ratings of the far-right Alternative for Germany fell below 20% for the first time in eight months.
Now it has begun to grow again and for the first time in a month and a half has returned to the 20% mark. These are the results of a survey by the sociological institute INSA.”
Germans, particularly modern Germans, most of them, are conformist. The hostile demonstrations, backed by Germany’s NWO/ZOG state apparat, were enough to dent AfD support, but only temporarily.
