Memory Lane

I happened to see that someone with whom I was slightly acquainted at school in the early 1970s died a couple of years ago. Not someone I really knew, or knew well, because he, Matthew Perry by name, was in the “B” or “C” stream of my year, whereas I was in the “A” stream.

In fact, I really only became acquainted with Perry —and he was never a friend as such; I never visited his home or went anywhere with him— because, if I remember aright, we were both in the Bridge Club. An amusing fellow, with several stories to tell, often about (horse-) racing or gambling generally. The sort of person one might, in an older person, call “clubbable”.

I noticed from the piece I saw (from the online mag of my old school —incidentally, I should never have recognized him from the appended photo, perhaps taken in an unwell later year) that, after his school years were over, he had done well in pharmaceuticals, but had also flown aid to Africa (Uganda, I think it said).

Quite a few people of the same or similar age to myself, and whom I knew as a small child, older child, or generally in youth, are now no longer on this Earth. In fact, the same goes for several people I knew in later life. A reminder that we have to do what we can, accomplish our mission (of whatever kind) while still here.

There is a distinction to be made between housing migrant-invaders in old military or naval bases prior to swift deportation, and housing them there (especially with few restrictions on their movements) on an open-ended or indefinite basis.

Many Jews are actively helping the migration-invasion of this country. Look at Simon Myerson, the unpleasant barrister abusive on social media. He, with a few minions, set up a “charity” expressly designed to bring more Afghans to this country.

Incidentally…

[“A major investigation into Afghans imported into the UK by our politicians finds:

many “under threat” went back to Afghanistan for holiday

many faked claims of Taliban threat & staged torture videos

many already had asylum in other safe countries

some only worked with British forces for “one or two days”

many pushing for large families to come into UK including second wives“]

The Hamas political leadership in Gaza launched a noisy gambit on the chessboard nearly two years ago. Had I been in their position, I should have played that deadly game differently, in a far more oblique way…quietly extending a very very deep tunnel system under Israel, perhaps digging for years, until that network extended as far as Central Israel, then branching out.

Some good news.

That made me smile. Based, of course, on the famous or infamous photos showing Stalin with Molotov, Voroshilov, and Yezhov. After Yezhov had been dismissed (and shot), the photo was doctored, as shown below:

“Just like that!”, in the words of Tommy Cooper.

“What would they do if they held a (socialist) party, and no-one came?”

Political splits happen in almost all parties, and Marxist-oriented parties are notoriously prone to them, but I do not think that I have heard of a party of any kind splitting into two —or is it three?— factions before the party has even been officially formed! Comedy gold…

Taking the news as an accurate picture of what happened, this seems to be a counter-productive move by Russia. Putin needs to get the Western public opinion on his side, or at least neutral.

…and what is to stop the few actually being sent back to France from then returning to the UK on another rubber boat? Nothing, albeit that their fingerprints etc will be on file.

Diary Blog, 2 May 2025, with result of, and analysis around, the Runcorn and Helsby by-election

Morning music

[Sukhumi]

Full results from the Runcorn and Helsby by-election

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Runcorn_and_Helsby_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s

Reform UK 38.72%, Labour 38.7%, Conservatives 7.17%, Greens 7.09%. The other 11 candidates lost their deposits, the LibDem coming 5th of the 15 candidates, and with a mere 2.88%.

What is so good about the result is that, had Starmer-stein managed to hold on to Runcorn and Helsby, even with one vote, he would have been able to weasel about “hard choices“, “making the tough decisions” etc. Now, the public can be seen to have replied with a massive “NO!” to all such Blair/Brown/Cameron (etc) dissembling.

So Reform (not my party, not my kind of party, not really my ideology, but halfway there) now has 5 MPs (6, really, Rupert Lowe having been elected under the Reform banner). Under a fairer electoral system, Reform in 2024 would have had 92 MPs anyway, not 5.

5-6 MPs may seem a small bloc, but for most of the 1950s and 1960s, the old Liberal Party had the same number, before struggling into double figures for the first time since 1945, and then recovering under their new name, the Liberal Democrats: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_Party_(UK)#Electoral_performance.

Now the dam has burst. The main System parties have lost all credibility. Today Reform, but tomorrow who knows?

I love it when System political “grifters” and careerists lose out like that.

Bitter herbs for Starmer-stein this breakfast-time.

As blogged for many months, this is not so much a Labour government as a Labour Friends of Israel government, or misgovernment.

Farage may be a snake-oil salesman but “God moves in mysterious ways, His wonders to perform“. Once Farage and Reform have hacked the way through the jungle, real social nationalism will be able to break through. Maybe in 2033, the centenary of 1933. Just a thought…

More thoughts about the by-election, local elections etc

The discomfiture of System drones, especially Labour ones, is both very evident and hilarious to see. Last night, I saw a section of the Sky News election coverage. One of the “experts” on their little panel was the TV talking head, now elevated to the degraded Lords as a “baroness”, Ayesha Hazarika. She obviously hates it that Reform is becoming electorally popular.

That Ayesha Hazarika person is emblematic of the times in which we live in the UK. Of Indian origin, she was a lowly civil service press officer before becoming a stand-up “comedian” (comedienne), a markedly unsuccessful one.

Despite that, her connections in the Labour Party ensured that she not only got “advisory” political work, but also slots on TV discussion panels and, eventually, the “peerage” (nominated by Starmer-stein).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayesha_Hazarika,_Baroness_Hazarika

Such peerages pay out £361 a day taxfree (when the House is sitting, i.e. 102 days per annum, plus travel costs and, in many cases, the costs of hotels or rent of flats etc in London. The £361 daily allowance is paid for up to 102 days per year, so as much as around £37,000 in a year. No fortune, but it is taxfree (so worth the same as a salary of maybe £50,000 or so), and all a “baroness” or “lord” has to do to get it is to sign in every day claimed for. It can take as little as 30 minutes, but why not stay and have an excellent and absurdly-subsidized lunch too?

A friend of mine often used to lunch with a peer of the realm (one of the real and unpaid old hereditary ones, not a life peer) in the 1980s and 1990s. She told me about the kind of luxury food and wine they had, and how low were the prices of that.

What a broken system. A low-level civil servant office bod and unsuccessful comic entertainer can get to know a few MPs, get on Newsnight or Sky News a bit, then become a member of the upper chamber of our legislature. It is absolutely ridiculous.

Turning from the Hazarika creature to more general matters, it is clear that the Westminster Bubblers simply do not understand what is driving the Reform phenomenon. They are too well-padded to feel the pain of so many people in this country.

Reform is underwhelming, really, yet look at what is happening! The voters are clutching at the Reform straw because not only are the main System parties useless, but they appear intent on stamping on British people, on their preferred way of life, on their history and on their future.

Labour especially is in the hands of secretive and hostile cabals. Starmer-stein is the obvious example: a freemason married to a Jewish woman, and who, at Easter, did not (as far as I have seen) invite any English children to Downing Street but did invite a group of Jewish children celebrating one of their religious festivals which occurred at about the same time.

Starmer-stein and his cabal have cut the small incomes of pensioners, the sick, the old, the unemployed, but have thrown money at “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) and at Israel (e.g. by paying for RAF surveillance flights over Gaza and other Arab territory, then giving the intelligence product to Israel for free).

I was driving in one of the most affluent parts of southern England this morning, and the road could have been in some broken-down part of the world; potholed, and poorly surfaced generally. Why? Why? I do not recall roads in England being as bad as this in the past, prior to, say, 2010. certainly not in the 1980s. “Austerity”? Poor priorities?

People are getting very fed up, indeed angry, at the way things are going. Reform UK is just the first step. People will go much further if the country continues to be so broken, and even more invaded by migrant-invaders (“legal” and “illegal”).

At present, there is no indication that the direction of travel of the UK is anywhere but straight down.

That list is only the start.

The German “security and intelligence” bods should take a look at what happened to many of the Hungarian communist secret police in 1956, during the Hungarian Uprising. It was brutal…

Actually, the UK’s MI5 and police snoopers should also read up on that. History sometimes bites people like that on the ****.

Votes and elections will probably not be allowed to change the System (across Europe, certainly the EU and the UK). However, the discontent will find other outlets in the end. God help the System politicians and msm talking heads then…

Reform already shows worrying signs of infiltration and occupation.

Using Electoral Calculus, that might mean a Commons with about 376 Reform MPs (an absolute majority of 50, and a yet larger working majority), 113 Labour MPs, 71 LibDems (proving yet again that they are the “cockroach” survivors despite having really nothing at all to offer), 45 SNP, 12 Cons, and 5 Greens.

Labour is also looking at a well-deserved wipeout.

I notice that “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer-stein is now tweeting about “national security” and “defence”, at the same time as literally thousands of immigrants, tens of thousands, pour in every single day, mostly “legally”. As for the illegal, “small boat”, invaders, about a thousand are landing every day.

Starmer-stein wants to impose “woke” tyranny along with (((the usual))) concealed dictatorship in this country. He has to be opposed by any necessary means.

Three young boys who were allegedly locked inside their home for four years by their Covid-obsessed parents began hyperventilating and threw themselves onto the lawn to stroke the grass after being rescued by police, it has emerged.

Police found the boys, between the ages of eight and ten, in a house in the northern city of Oviedo, Spain on Wednesday. The children had apparently been kept in the residence since 2021.

It is understood the family closed off to the world during the Covid-19 pandemic, forbidding the children from going outside, and making them sleep in caged beds.”

Merely a rather extreme version of the general looniness that swept across much of Europe and elsewhere in 2020-2022 (and which was imposed by sinister self-styled “elite” political monsters such as, to name just one, Jacinda Arden in New Zealand).

I still see the odd facemask loony even today, usually some old woman in a supermarket who has probably been wearing the same bit of dirty cloth for 4 or 5 years now.

Diary Blog, 9 February 2025, including remembrance of the Norfolk farmer, Tony Martin

[the “dreaming spires” of Oxford]

Tony Martin (1944-2025)

I missed the reports of the recent death of farmer Tony Martin, imprisoned in 1999 for having shot some “travellers” (Irish tinkers) who had targeted his rundown farmhouse by night.

Incidentally, the Wikipedia entry about those events and the aftermath omits the “traveller” aspect entirely: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Martin_(farmer); so does the local news outlet Nottingham Post (the “traveller” criminals in the case having come from the Nottingham area): see https://www.nottinghampost.com/news/nottinghamshire-burglar-shot-farmer-tony-9930047.

Martin was eventually released after having spent 3 years in prison, his initial conviction for murder having been downgraded on appeal to manslaughter. There had been a huge public outcry supporting Martin. I myself recall having posted a supportive postcard to him from Turkey when he was still sitting in prison. 2001. I wonder whether he ever received it.

I was unaware in 1999 and 2001 that Martin had (probably in the 1970s) supported the National Front [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Front_(UK)], and was related by marriage to Andrew Fountaine [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Fountaine, an interesting if slightly alarming character whom I once saw, and heard speak (at Chelsea Old Town Hall in London in 1975, when I was aged 18-19).

After his release, Martin supported, so says Wikipedia, both UKIP and the group Traditional Britain: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UK_Independence_Party; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traditional_Britain_Group.

Martin should never have been prosecuted or even questioned (except pro-forma).

Jack Lopresti, former Italian ice-cream salesman and sometime TA (part-time) private soldier [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Lopresti] and MP (2010-2024) is in fact notfighting” in Ukraine. He is sitting at a desk in Kiev.

Both Lopresti and his ex-wife, Andrea Jenkyns, lost their Commons seats in 2024. They were both members of Conservative Friends of Israel.

Andrea Jenkyns has abandoned the Conservative Party for Reform UK. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrea_Jenkyns.

Lopresti seems rather unintelligent, and obviously has little idea of geopolitics, history, or anything else much. I expect he is being paid for his present role, and paid more than the peanuts pay, paid in local rubbish-money, that the Ukrainian soldiers get (when paid at all).

Incidentally, nearly 6 years ago, I penned an assessment of Andrea Jenkyns:

There are two (or three) main arguments against mass non-European immigration into the UK. One is both racial and cultural, meaning also societal, the other is economic. For me, the economic argument is not the primary one, but it is (obviously) hugely significant. The swamping of this country by non-whites is making us poorer and, until stopped and reversed, will continue to make us poorer as a country, as a population and, particularly as British individuals.

Carpetbagger Kemi should scuttle back either to the USA or to Nigeria, where she came from.

You still see stupid British scribblers, TV talking heads, MPs etc, spouting about how “Ukraine” (the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev) is fighting for European culture, democracy, civil rights etc. In reality, the shambolic and corrupt Kiev regime is a brutal dictatorship.

The Jew Zelensky rules as the figurehead of a cabal of dictators. Elections should have been held a year or two ago and now never will be. Trade unions are banned. Dissidents are arrested already; a few have even been shot or otherwise “eliminated”. Recruitment to the armed forces is now largely by press-gang— people simply seized off the streets by militia goons.

At a protest against Trump’s executive orders targeting child mutilation procedures on minors, Actress Cynthia Nixon reveals that: -Her daughter is transgender -Her niece is transgender -Her best friend’s child is transgender -Her daughter’s best friend is transgender -Her life is filled with transgender people, “young and old, but especially young.” President Trump is saving American children from one of the most destructive social contagions in human history.

Equatorial Guinea

Amusing. Something similar once happened on a Caribbean island where I lived, though it all blew up a couple of months before I arrived; I was told about it by a colleague.

Apparently, the defaulter was a pilot, a native of another island. He flew for a regional airline. He crashed his plane on one island or another (I do not recall what I was told, exactly; I think maybe St. Lucia) and he was killed, along with about 30 passengers and crew. Cannabis and cocaine were said to have been found in his body.

After his death, his wife was sorting through his belongings (not where she lived) and found the video tapes (this was about 25 or 26 years ago).

It turned out that the deceased pilot had, er, had literally dozens of prominent women on the island where I later lived. His wife made sure that copies of the tape were sent to several people. Soon, everyone had seen or heard of those tapes.

As my colleague later told me, these were women one met on a daily basis, such as the tall, sunglasses-wearing, woman police sergeant who conducted my driving test (I did not usually drive myself around until I arrived on that island and had no choice).

Other women involved were almost all of those who worked at the small airport on the island (as immigration officials, canteen staff, cleaners etc), the local schoolteachers, wives of the officiants at several of the (many) local churches etc. Apparently, bananas (literal bananas) featured in some of the tapes.

It all caused an enormous upheaval on an island where people tended to know everyone.

Reverting to Equatorial Guinea, I have never been there, and have only met a couple of people who have. Having said that, when I was a mere 18 years of age, in 1975, I had the idea of invading the island. A couple of boys my own age were my co-planners in that mad idea, which of course never went anywhere.

I had a large pilot’s map of the island (bought from Stanford’s in Covent Garden) and the nearby/not nearby bit of Africa where the larger part of the country (the former Spanish colony of Spanish Guinea, independent since 1968) was located. The island of Fernando Po (now, Bioko) was where the capital, Santa Isabel (now, Malabo) was. The island is about 3x the size of the Isle of Wight, and the whole country is slightly larger than Wales.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equatorial_Guinea.

I twice met the (now long-deceased) Conservative MP, Harold Soref, in connection with my doomed plan, once at the Carlton Club and once at the original St. James’ Club in Piccadilly. He was rather dismissive (perhaps unsurprisingly). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Soref. Maybe he was just keeping an eye open for SIS/MI6.

At that time, oil had not been discovered in Equatorial Guinea (that happened only in 1995), and few people had even heard of the place. I was unaware at the time that novelist Frederick Forsyth had already published, in 1974, the novel The Dogs of War, all about an invasion of Equatorial Guinea (disguised in the book as the republic of Zangaro).

Truth/fiction etc…

As for Simon Myerson, the vituperative Twitter/X Jew-Zionist, he was sacked as a Recorder (p/t judge) a few months ago. Unfit to sit in judgment upon anyone.

One major problem that England —and all of the UK— has is the prevalence of box-ticking senior police personnel, all signed up to the “woke”/”antiracism” agenda. Police careerists, often women, who have been on the right courses and to the right seminars, got the right bits of paper, attended such as the “Common Purpose” brainwashing (turning mediocre nobodies into fake and incompetent would-be “leaders”) etc.

The police in the UK need radical reform.

As to the harsh sentencing handed down to those protesters, were I one of those sentenced, I should be asking my solicitors whether there is any scope for appeal on sentence.

The time limits may complicate any application for permission to appeal, but that may not be an insuperable obstacle in these circumstances: https://www.gov.uk/appeal-against-crown-court-verdict.

Maybe such an appeal, if allowed, might only result in a few months being knocked off, but hey!…

If the 10,000 North Koreans are properly armed and equipped, and then unleashed on the battlefield as a discrete battle-group, that battle-group will easily punch a hole in the Kiev-regime front-line. It could be a gamechanger for Putin.

If the experienced Kiev-regime troops sent into both the Kursk region and the Ukrainian region to the west of the border can be captured or killed, the Kiev regime will have to quickly transfer units to that sector of the overall front. That will make the existing Russian advances in the Donetsk and Lugansk regions ever harder to counter; already, the Russians advance steadily in those regions.

Well, no-one could have foreseen that…(in fact, many did…).

I look forward to “developments”.

Presumably, that includes those with mental problems.

Exactly so.

As to the Jew Zelensky, I see only three or four possibilities for him: 1. fall back on Lvov, and try to govern a rump “state” of “Ukraine” from there, a state consisting of the inland areas of Western Ukraine; 2. relocate to Florida, where he owns a villa worth about USD $40M (I read); 3. relocate to somewhere such as Switzerland; 4. flee to Israel.

I posit a different scenario: Russia joins with all of Europe to create a Eurasian ethnostate, a kind of cosmic white-magic Christendom, standing counter to the North Americans, the Islamist and Jewish-Zionist states, and the other non-Europeans.

I admit, though, that there is no immediate sign of such a restructuring.

A year or two ago, the Israeli state and military machine seemed overwhelmingly powerful, but events have changed all that, despite the devastation the Israelis have visited upon the people and infrastructure of Gaza over the past year or so.

The Israelis now fight on several fronts— Gaza, Northern Israel/Lebanon, Iran, and Yemen, as well as in the West Bank territories.

The Israelis are divided internally.

The destruction of the Israeli state in the short-to-medium term now seems unlikely but possible; previously, it seemed completely impossible.

As I blogged yesterday, the events of 1944 (which really are, in 2024, rather overdone anyway, bearing in mind that only people born before about 1936 or 1937, i.e. those now at least 87-88 years old, would personally remember them) naturally mean nothing to Sunak, who after all is not really British and was only born in 1980.

Ha. Looks as though Andrea Jenkyns is going to have to find one of those jobs the Con Party wants the disabled and sick to do, such as stacking shelves. Hard to imagine that she would be qualified for anything else, and her seat is gone, for sure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leeds_South_West_and_Morley_(UK_Parliament_constituency); the former Morley and Outwood constituency, but with a new added area which is generally anti-Conservative Party: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farnley_and_Wortley_(ward).

I wrote about Andrea Jenkyns on the blog years ago. I was probably too kind about her: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/05/21/the-andrea-jenkyns-story/.

Andrea Jenkyns, with her husband (or ex-husband; it seems unclear), Jack Lopresti [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Lopresti] are both Con Party MPs, and both are also members of Conservative Friends of Israel. His constituency (also to be fought on new boundaries) may be “safer” than his wife’s or ex-wife’s, but whether safe enough to save Lopresti from also having to stack shelves is an open question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filton_and_Bradley_Stoke_(UK_Parliament_constituency). His only real job prior to becoming an MP was in his family’s ice-cream business (he is of Sicilian origin).

Andrea Jenkyns and Jack Lopresti. Both pro-Israel and the UK Jewish lobby? Kick them both into the political gutter, dear voters.

One of the several Jews who were also regular patrons was someone called Jerry (I never knew his surname), a former Royal Navy Lt.-Commander (perhaps surprisingly), and one-time scholar of the Jewish house at Clifton College (Bristol)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clifton_College]; [https://www.thejc.com/family-and-education/clifton-colleges-jewish-family-q7qjk71c].

That “Jerry” person happened to be at the same large cafe table as me that morning and, he somehow knowing that I was at the Bar (very recently Called, I think), started to talk about Green. His words stuck in my mind. Green, said he, “is what we [Jews] call a Schnorrer“, though his brief explanation of the word was even less polite than that of Robert Peston.

Instructive in two senses. First, look at that horrible little “journalist” careerist. Typical. Never give a “journalist” (whether scribbler or TV monkey-on-a-stick) the time of day. They have an agenda, and are enemies subservient to the “usual” lobby.

Secondly, it shows, yet again, that Reform UK is merely “controlled opposition”, and with no loyalty to its own members and candidates. Still, I hope that Reform UK does well enough to help kill off the Conservative Party, as well as moving the “Overton Window” a bit.

Just saw the above tweets, posted on Twitter/X in 2023.

Austin, now unmeritoriously in the House of Lords (thanks to “Boris” Johnson), actually wrote at least one letter to the then Director of Public Prosecutions sometime in recent years, and on behalf of the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], which letter or letters demanded that I be prosecuted for allegedly having posted “antisemitic” tweets and/or blog comments.

Incidentally, the same Jewish girl student who spearheaded Zionist complaints against the later and wrongfully sacked Dr. David Miller at Bristol University, one Sabrina Miller (no relation), actually defended Austin in relation to the pornography matter, and appeared to be, in a post or posts I saw online, not unsympathetic to his views at the time. She is now a scribbler for the Daily Mail.

Strangely, Austin’s Wikipedia entry seems not to mention his views on the rather unpleasant pornographic matter in question.

“Jack Monroe” (Melissa Hadjicostas) is no more “trans” than I am. A “grifting” cheat, liar, and fraudster, yes.

She is now falling back on previously-deployed (several times; indeed, many times) lies: she is “persecuted“, “having to hide” (“with her son”, who is now about 20 years old and who was mainly taken care of by others in his earlier years) “in safe houses“.

Not forgetting the Press apparently doorstepping her (she’s used that lie several times too) and “stalkers” stalking her in her home area (yawn…another much-trotted-out invention). Oh, and her alleged need for “bodyguards“. Would they be private ones, costing hundreds of pounds per day? Police ones, like some of the royals, and some Cabinet ministers, sometimes have? And does anyone not feeble-minded believe a word of all her nonsense?

“Jack” also claims, yet again, to be under police protection and, yet again, has no idea at all where the last year’s donations from well-meaning but brainless mugs have gone…

Of course she doesn’t…

As for why those utter mugs are still —after years of “Jack” being exposed as a dishonest cheat and fraud— sending her money every month, that is hard to say (beyond simple naivety and/or stupidity). I am not a psychiatrist.

Yes. It has been puzzling to me why the Essex Police, so hot on “racist” teddy bears and “antisemitism”, can find no time to investigate a woman who has ripped off hundreds of thousands of pounds from people, often genuinely poor people, over about 10-12 years. Whether it has anything to do with freemasonry (I think that her father, a former high-ranking fire officer and residential property landlord in Southend, is a freemason, though I am ready to be corrected if that is not so), I have no idea.

The only danger “Jack” is in (excepting possible arrest and/or quite likely civil legal action soon), is that she might be poisoned by the swill she pretends to cook.

As I have blogged in the past, I could imagine “Jack Monroe”, under other circumstances, being a far more serious kind of criminal.

“Jack Monroe” reminds me (her incredible portfolio of lies, and screamingly implausible tales and fantasies, remind me) of the Fawlty Towers episode where, looking at Basil, the psychiatrist says to his wife, “there’s material for an entire conference there“.

Whereas the main System parties have detailed, properly costed, fully or largely worked out policies…most of which are never implemented. Isn’t “democracy” wonderful?…

When “they” have power and others do not…

If that were to occur, it would be absurd. An election for Conservative Party leader could not happen (could it?) until after the General Election. It is uncertain at present even who will or will not retain his/her seat.

In any case, who would want to apply for the job, facing certain defeat in 3.5 weeks’ time? Traditionally, leaders resign after a lost election, so the idea makes no sense.

I suppose that Sunak might resign as Con leader, but retain the Prime Ministership until the General Election on 4 July.

Were Sunak to step down as PM as well, I suppose that the brainless Oliver Dowden might become caretaker Prime Minister. After the inevitable loss of the election, Dowden would then cease to be PM (and, ludicrously, be eligible, as was Liz Truss, for the ex-PM’s £125,000 or £150,000 p.a. for life!).

Re Dowden, I saw this: “Dowden is a former officer of the Conservative Friends of Israel, and has twice chaired the APPG for British Jews. Dowden has said he feels a “cultural affinity” with the Jewish community – his constituency of Hertsmere has the largest Jewish population outside of London.[18]” [Wikipedia]

Nein danke…

Were Sunak to resign as Con Party leader and/or PM prior to 4 July 2024, the Conservative Party might, quite seriously, be left with only a handful of MPs. I think that, for many voters, it would be the last straw.

As it is, we see people at Cabinet level attacking Sunak, the Prime Minister. Con Party discipline is non-existent now as the Titanic prepares to sink beneath the waves.

Saturday quiz

Well, this week I again trounced political journalist John Rentoul, scoring 8/10 as against his poor 4/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2 and 10.

In the interests of transparency, I should admit that I gave myself a point for question 7 despite not getting it exactly right (I thought 6 x 4 inches); close enough though, imo.

Martin Amis, that smug, and hugely-overrated, scribbler?

In fact, Bone is not always wrong, but his manner is, usually.

As for Andrea Jenkyns, she not only screamed, like the fishwives of legend, at protesting crowds yesterday, but actually stuck a finger up at them; neither the action of a serious politician nor that of a lady.

Most of the serious Conservative Party politicians, or at least those who take themselves seriously, have left the sinking Johnsonian ship of state. Left aboard are the deadheads, complete idiots, nobodies, and the “who he?” and “who she?” MPs, so obscure that even I, who take an interest in who’s who at Westminster, am at a loss and have to look them up on Wikipedia.

Part-Jew/Levantine poseur and chancer “Boris”-idiot now intends to cling on at Downing Street as long as he can, until removed.

I have still not discovered whether it is within the rules of the 1922 Committee for Johnson to put his own name forward for election as Conservative Party leader. I know that leaders who lose a vote of confidence among Conservative Party MPs cannot stand again, but “Boris”-idiot recently won a vote of confidence.

As blogged previously, if Johnson put his name forward, he might, even now, find himself one of the top two on the ballot, with many other candidates splitting the vote.

In that circumstance, the vote would then be a matter for Conservative Party members, choosing between two candidates. Johnson might win. If he did, he would have another two and a half years as Prime Minister, potentially.

This is a full-blown political crisis now. My main concern, beyond the effect on the country itself, is that there is no social-national party to take advantage of that crisis.

You can see why the ZOG/communitarian UK police are becoming hysterical at the prospect of what they are pleased to call
right wing terrorism“, meaning outbreaks of revolt among the British population.

Meanwhile, the egg from which “Boris” hatched, part-Jew bully and fake, Stanley Johnson, having been given £3.4M for his, in reality, far less valuable house (by the HS2 people, but effectively on government instruction, in order to keep “Boris” sweet), has (like the rootless part-Jew cosmopolitan he is) not only abandoned the UK (he has fled overseas to live in France), but has also taken on foreign (French) citizenship. He is also entitled to Israeli citizenship, which he may or may not have requested.

…especially if social nationalism can then soar aloft.

Very alarming, but that neither proves that the warming is (or mainly is), man-made, nor that the cause is (or mainly is) CO2 emissions, nor that anything concrete can be done, in view of the fact that the world is overpopulated, and that means overpopulated by those of Asian and African origin.

The world population has more than doubled since 1970, and the bulk of that has been in China and India, with other Asian and African countries also contributing.

The world population must be reduced to a far smaller figure, perhaps 20% or even 10% of where it now is, and the remaining population should be mainly European in terms of race and culture.

If the above reduction in quantity, and increase in quality, can be done, the foundation will have been laid for a quantum leap in human evolution.

The stupid Huffington Post failing to point out that mass shootings in the UK have always been “vanishingly rare“: only three have ever happened in the UK and, of those, one happened in the 1980s (Hungerford), one in the 1990s (Dunblane), and one (in Cumbria) in 2010, i.e. after the prohibition laws of 1997.

The hysterical 1997 (anti-) gun laws in the UK are yet another example of law not only made to immediately satisfy whipped-up public opinion, but also law behind which is little thought or knowledge.

I blogged about these matters after the Brenton Tarrant spree killings in New Zealand, three years ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/03/25/the-new-zealand-attack-and-related-matters/.

The Huffington Post or HuffPost is a very poor “news/comment” outlet.

I have just now seen that a HuffPost report about me is now (online version) illustrated by a 2-min video of some completely other person giving a talk at what looks like a Labour Party meeting! Is that meant to be me?

https://www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/barrister-ian-millard-disbarred-over-anti-semitic-tweets_uk_58134c3ee4b04660a438f7da.

I might add that that 2016 report, penned by one Steven Hopkins, is no better than semi-literate.

Talking about poor/inaccurate news media: after I was wrongfully —and actually unlawfully— disbarred in 2016 (see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/), the Independent published a one-sided account of the matter, and also a photograph of a barrister, robed, smoking a cigarette. A neck-down photograph. It was published as if the person shown was me, but in fact I have never smoked cigarettes, and always wore far better shoes!

Conservative Party leadership

Seems that even some, even some msm political journalists, are divided on whether “Boris”-idiot has actually “resigned” as Con leader or not; if not, then he could stand immediately for the leadership, again:

More tweets

Indeed. On the other hand, there may be a race-and-culture aspect. Will enough voters disregard the fact (if it is a fact) that the new Conservative Party leader is (if he or she is) black or brown?

I would say that, in the affluent south of England, and in pockets of affluence elsewhere, very many voters will do almost anything to preserve the supposed value of their houses and other assets, and so will vote “Conservative” even if the party leader is an Indian or other non-European. It may be a very different story in the “left-behind” areas of the north of England, Wales, degenerating coastal towns etc.

It may be, that in much of England and Wales, many voters simply will not vote for a party whose leader is non-European.

Starmer is, of course, English, and the fact that he is a puppet of the Jewish lobby and (almost identical) Israel lobby is “caviar to the general” for most voters; it goes over their heads.

Even if only, say, 10% of voters are swayed by such considerations, those aspects may be key in a close fight.

Ha ha! Au contraire, in my view.

When people say that about Boris-idiot, they are not just talking about his shambolic 3 years as PM, but the equally crazy preceding couple of decades, including his two times as MP (for different constituencies), his disastrous failure as Foreign Secretary, and his spell as Mayor of London.

Quite.

I have come to realize, or realize anew, and more pointedly, that the vast bulk of British people, at least, are easily manipulated, fooled, and ruled. The 2+ years since the start of the “panicdemic”/”scamdemic” have made that glaringly obvious. Law, constitution, civil rights, Parliamentary “democracy”, decency, all easily rolled over by a conspiracy of a relative few in government and msm, most of whom probably themselves believe at least some of the lying propaganda they shovel out over the country.

Boris-idiot. What now?

My view at present is that Boris-idiot, ever the black rat, is struggling to find a way to survive and thrive.

“Boris” (Alexander Johnson) has resigned, or pledged to resign, as Conservative Party leader, but not (yet, at time of writing) as Prime Minister.

I do not know whether he would be permitted to stand for Conservative Party leader at any MPs’ election this year. That would depend on the rules laid down now or (if different) later on.

I suppose that if he is able to put himself forward again for election, there is a slight chance that he might end up as one of the top two; then the matter would be put to Conservative party members, many of whom are stupid enough to support him, even now.

It says something about the UK in 2022 , not just about the Conservative Party but also about the whole pseudo-democratic process, that the leading contenders to replace “Boris” are idiots such as Liz Truss, nobodies such as Penny Mordaunt, and various “ethnics” such as Sunak, Javid, even corrupt Kurd Zahawi etc.

One is sometimes tempted to echo, with necessary changes, the words of Savinkov in Reilly, Ace of Spies: “Poles, Czechs…where are the RUSSIANS?“, or in this case, “Jews, part-Jews, Kurds, Pakistanis, Indians…where are the ENGLISH?“.

I see that the opinion polls have the Labour Party 10 points ahead now. Maybe so, but once “Boris” is ditched, and assuming that some relatively uncontroversial figure is chosen to replace him, the voting public may look at Labour with more scrutiny.

Do the voters really want Jew-lobby or Israel-lobby puppets such as Starmer, Yvette Cooper, Rachel Reeves, Angela Rayner (for God’s sake!) to be in positions of power? They are less wedded to the Welfare State than Johnson! When or if the public think about it, I think that the answer, for many, will be negative about “Labour”.

Labour is a party without a purpose now, arguably even more than the Conservative Party. What would Labour give, directly, to voters, say “floating voters” (who are now hugely more numerous than in the historical past of the years 1945-1997)? The “Boris” government has almost thrown money at various groups during 2020-2022 and, while it fell down by abandoning, temporarily, the State Pension “triple lock” that is now coming back, thus (?) ensuring the loyalty of many pensioners.

As I have been blogging, recent by-elections, though bad for the Conservative Party, have been even worse for Labour. Even the 2021 by-election at Batley and Spen, won by thick-as-two-short-planks communitarian “Labour” candidate Kim Leadbeater, was only won by one point.

The Labour vote (yes, partly by reason of tactical voting) has collapsed in other recent by-elections.

In any general election this year, I would expect a lot of protest voting, and also quite a lot of abstention, both in former Labour and Conservative voter-ranks.

I doubt that Labour can win a majority in the House of Commons. Whether it could cobble together a “confidence and supply” arrangement with the SNP is an open question. The SNP might demand another “Indyref”, but in a sense, Labour can grant that easily enough, now that sentiment north of the border seems to be moving against (pseudo) Independence.

A hung Parliament seems at present the most likely result.

It strikes me that one person who will regret the departure of Boris-idiot will be the Jew Zelensky, who has been given a great deal by the Downing Street oaf, and promised a great deal more.

Naturally, the NWO will continue to prop up the Kiev regime, but “Boris” made it a major part of his “Poundland Churchill” routine. Zelensky had “Boris” over a barrel and, (((typically))) tried to extract more and more from his victim.

Beth Rigby is absurd, very poor indeed; about the same low level as Laura Kuenssberg. These mediocrities get paid hundreds of thousands a year. Why?

Incidentally, re. Laura Kuenssberg’s parents and grandparents, I saw this:

In 1941, [Ekkehard von] Kuenssberg married Constance Hardy, with whom he had been a medical student at Edinburgh. They lived at Canonmills and had two sons and two daughters. They later moved out of the city to Haddington, East Lothian. In retirement, Kuenssberg suffered from Parkinson’s disease and cancer. He died in December 2000.[2]

In 1940, [Ekkehard von] Kuenssberg’s mother was living in Heidelberg and was registered as Jewish.[6] His father died in Germany in 1941, and his mother then lived at Finstergrün Castle until the end of the war. She survived her husband until 1977, reaching the age of 94.[3]

One of [Ekkehard von] Kuenssberg’s sons is Professor Nick Kuenssberg OBE, whose children include the diplomat Joanna Kuenssberg, a former High Commissioner to Mozambique, and Laura Kuenssberg, former political editor of BBC News.[3][7]

So Laura Kuenssberg’s paternal grandmother was Jewish, and was registered in National Socialist Germany as Jewish, yet lived (unmolested, and not arrested, nor detained, nor deported to a camp etc) throughout the Second World War, most of which she spent, as a paying guest, in a castle in Austria: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finstergr%C3%BCn_Castle.

If you were to believe the usual Jewish/Zionist propaganda, you would assume (wrongly) that all Jews were ruthlessly hunted down by SS or Gestapo, and then deported somewhere. Not so.

[Burg Finstergrün; photo: Arne Müseler]

Well, given that the UK msm is basically Jew-Zionist-dominated, they could hardly tell the truth, and call “Boris”-idiot “a part-Jew/Levantine public entertainer whose jokes now fall flat“, could they?

Ha ha. Anyone who has read my blog over the past 5+ years will have received, if I say so myself who shouldn’t, a far better and higher level of analysis than that pumped out by System msm drones such as Laura Kuenssberg and Beth Rigby.

That idiot is from South America (though of English background and schooling). I suppose that one should not assume that he is snorting white powder. A facade of intellect and erudition, yet he comes out with untrue rubbish as seen above

Incidentally, I have never seen or heard anything in the slightest “brilliant” from Boris-idiot. Au contraire.

I suppose it would be churlish to speculate as to whether the descendant of the one on the left may have, 100+ years on, stabbed or mugged the descendant of the one on the right, or replaced said descendant in his own homeland?

A thought out of season, nothing more…

In that, at least, I agree with Hannan.

“KGB” fantasies

Labour are going with the “Boris met a former KGB officer” stuff. Well, far be it from me to defend Boris-idiot, but so what if he did? I myself met a “former KGB officer” a few times in the early/mid 1990s; he even lunched with me once or twice at Lincoln’s Inn. “Ed”, like many others, had morphed into a businessman and, as far as I know, was no longer engaged in espionage but was, like most people, just trying to make a living in a more or less ordinary way. Does that mean that I also am suspect? I think not.

The Soviet Union ceased to exist, even formally, over 30 years ago.

Yvette Cooper is another MP-idiot, as well as a fraudster, expenses cheat, “refugees welcome” hypocrite, and mouthpiece for the Jewish lobby and Israel (oh, and a would-be dictator). Another good reason not to vote for fake “Labour”, in fact.

The Andrea Jenkyns Story

At first blush, it may seem strange that I am focussing today on Andrea Jenkyns MP [Con, Morley and Outwood], in that she wants to leave the EU, is an animal-lover and a vegetarian. I support, in essence, all three positions. Also, she has chronic medical conditions, and I always feel sorry for people suffering in that way. However, “there is no religion higher than Truth” and so on, so I am writing about her, though —after thought– I have decided not to include her in my blog category “Deadhead MPs: An Occasional Series”. That decision may reflect mercy more than justice, but so far she falls just the right side of the line.

Jenkyns was born in BeverleyHumberside. After leaving school at 16, Jenkyns secured employment at Greggs bakery as her first job.[4] When 18, Jenkyns’ father sent her photo off to a beauty pageant and she got into the final for Miss UK.[5] Over the subsequent years Jenkyns changed employment a number of times, performing a number of different roles at different businesses. Her employment history has included being a secondary school music teacher and an executive with a management training company.” [Wikipedia]

What does that show? Not necessarily that she is unacademic or unintelligent. There are reasons, or were, why people drop out of school early (I believe that it is now more or less mandatory for them to stay until 18). In her thirties she did study for a degree (for what it may be worth these days): International Relations and Politics. Her Wikipedia entry does not say that she was awarded the degree or finished the course at the University of Lincoln. It seems that she may have finished the degree over time at the Open University. She was also awarded a diploma in Economics from the Open University, but only when in her forties (she will be 45 in June 2019).

Andrea Jenkyns is a singer and songwriter, who even had a musical hit in South Central Asia at one time.

I started this study thinking that I would find Andrea Jenkyns rather mediocre and even one of my “deadhead MPs”, but find that I slightly warm to her. She is evidently genuinely interested in animal welfare, and got into politics, it seems, from a recognition that the NHS needed to improve its standards, particularly hygiene standards in hospitals, her own father having perished from having developed MRSA.

Sadly, like so many MPs, Andrea Jenkyns seems to think that proper preparation is unnecessary. Not so. Lack of preparation can make you look rather silly.

Her husband, Giacomo “Jack” Lopresti MP, a former Army reservist, would be able to tell her about the military acronym “the 5 Ps” (PPPPP) (“Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance”); the less polite version has 6 Ps.

The twitterati have taken up arms against her:

As mentioned above, I myself strongly favour Leave/Brexit, but the performance of dunce-like Conservative Leave MPs (some of them) makes me fume: Iain Dunce Duncan Smith is another such.

On the even more negative side, it seems that Andrea Jenkyns is a member (like 80% of Con Party MPs) of Conservative Friends of Israel. Her husband, Jack Lopresti, is another one.

As to her future, her constituency is a Con-Lab marginal created in 2010 and held until 2015 by Labour big-hitter and Bilderberger, Ed Balls. Morley and Outwood has had Con and Lab (Labour and Cooperative) within a couple of points of each other in 2010 and 2015, but in 2017 Andrea Jenkyns won with a bigger margin (50.7% as against 46.7% voting Labour). The third-placed (and only other in 2017), the LibDems, scored worse in 2017 than they had in 2015 (2.6% from 3%). This is a trend seen across the country.

UKIP scored 16.5% in 2015, but did not stand in 2017. There is every prospect that, if Brexit Party stands any time soon, that it could outdo UKIP’s 2015 result. It is doubtful that Brexit Party could win, but a vote amounting even to 10%, let alone 16.5% or more, would be enough to destroy the Conservative majority.

There is every reason to think that, unless Brexit Party lets her off the hook by not standing a candidate at the next general election, Andrea Jenkyns will have to add “MP” to her other and previous short-lived employments.

Reading the above again, and again watching Andrea Jenkyns squirm in that Daily Politics clip, I think that I probably was too kind in not including her as a “deadhead MP”. Still, there it is.

Andrea Jenkyns has been given an unexpected gift from the Gods inasmuch as Brexit Party is now not standing against her in the 2019 General Election. That may help her to hang on.

Update, 21 December 2019

The gods again smiled on Andrea Jenkyns: Brexit Party did not field a candidate, Labour’s vote collapsed from 46% of the total to 35%, and so Andrea Jenkyns was re-elected with a increased majority and no less than 56.4% of the total vote.

From my blog pages on 8 June 2024:

Ha. Looks as though Andrea Jenkyns is going to have to find one of those jobs the Con Party wants the disabled and sick to do, such as stacking shelves. Hard to imagine that she would be qualified for anything else, and her seat is gone, for sure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leeds_South_West_and_Morley_(UK_Parliament_constituency); the former Morley and Outwood constituency, but with a new added area which is generally anti-Conservative Party: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farnley_and_Wortley_(ward).

I wrote about Andrea Jenkyns on the blog years ago. I was probably too kind about her: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/05/21/the-andrea-jenkyns-story/.

Andrea Jenkyns, with her husband (or ex-husband; it seems unclear), Jack Lopresti [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Lopresti] are both Con Party MPs, and both are also members of Conservative Friends of Israel. His constituency (also to be fought on new boundaries) may be “safer” than his wife’s or ex-wife’s, but whether safe enough to save Lopresti from also having to stack shelves is an open question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filton_and_Bradley_Stoke_(UK_Parliament_constituency). His only real job prior to becoming an MP was in his family’s ice-cream business (he is of Sicilian origin).

Andrea Jenkyns and Jack Lopresti. Both pro-Israel and the UK Jewish lobby. Kick them both into the political gutter, dear voters.”

Update, 6 July 2024

Well, Andrea Jenkyns is no more, politically. Voted out in the 2024 General Election: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leeds_South_West_and_Morley_(UK_Parliament_constituency).

Labour 44%, Con 23%, Reform UK 20.4%. Even had all the Reform voters voted for her, Andrea Jenkyns would still have lost. Looks like she has had her 9 years of high pay, good expenses, and other perks. She will probably end up stacking shelves.

Incidentally, her recent ex-husband, Jack Lopresti, was also unseated at the 2024 General Election; like Andrea Jenkyns, well-beaten: Labour 45.5%, Con (Lopresti) 25.6%, Reform UK 13.5%. Again, even had Reform UK voters all voted Con, Lopresti would still have lost his seat [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filton_and_Bradley_Stoke_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s].

Update, 9 February 2025

Never write off good grifters…Andrea Jenkyns defected to Reform UK sometime later in 2024, and is apparently going to be their 2025 candidate for the new position of Mayor of Greater Lincolnshire: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrea_Jenkyns; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Lincolnshire_Combined_County_Authority.

The political realities and tendencies of 2025, Reform UK, and Eastern England being as they are, there is every chance that Andrea Jenkyns will win election to that post.

Update, 2 May 2025

Well, there it is. Once again, Andrea Jenkyns, former Greggs employee (etc) has been saved from stacking shelves at Lidl by electoral success. She is now the Mayor of Greater Lincolnshire, a name reminiscent of the inventions of P.G. Wodehouse.

Incidentally, Jack Lopresti, Andrea Jenkyns’ ex-husband, is now sitting at a desk in Kiev doing some kind of military-connected work for the Kiev regime:

A Tory MP who lost his Westminster seat in the general election last year is now serving in the Ukrainian military.

Jack Lopresti was the MP for Filton and Bradley Stoke, in South Gloucestershire, until Labour’s Claire Hazelgrove secured victory in 2024.

Mr Lopresti, 55, said on social media he was now volunteering for the International Legion of Ukraine, Defence Intelligence.

“It’s a huge honour and an immense privilege for me to serve in the Ukrainian military and be able to help the gallant and amazing Ukrainian people in any way I can,” he said.

Mr Lopresti previously served in the UK Army Reserve as a corporal, and said he was focusing on charity work in the country, supporting veterans, foreign relations and diplomacy and weapons procurement – as well as military duties.
