[“In Israel, a bill has been submitted to the Knesset that could criminalize public speech about Jesus Christ.

The proposal was submitted by coalition lawmakers Moshé Gafni and Yaakov Asher. According to the draft, it would be prohibited to publish or distribute content that “supports Jesus” on the internet, in the media, or via email.“]

A strike, yes, but on what target? Looks underwhelming, from what one can see.

The Beirut locals seem remarkably sanguine about a missile warhead detonating only a short distance from them.

[“UAE billionaire Khalaf Ahmad Al Habtoor just humiliatingly dismissed Senator Lindsey Graham in the most eloquent way possible. Graham’s calling for Gulf states to join the war. Says they’re “under attack” and need to fight alongside the US. Al Habtoor’s response: “We know full well why we are under attack, and we also know who dragged the entire region into this dangerous escalation without consulting those he calls his ‘allies.'” In other words: You started this war without asking us. Now you want us to fight it for you? No! The money shot: Graham said Iran and Venezuela together hold 31% of global oil reserves. That if the U.S. takes control, it’s a “nightmare for China” and America would “make a lot of money.” Al Habtoor: “Only then does the picture become clear. And only then do we understand why they want this war.” Not about freedom. Not about security. Oil and money. Graham said it himself. “We do not need your protection. All we want from you is to keep your hands off us. We invest in our security and pay billions of dollars for these weapons. This is an industry that thrives on wars and arms sales, not a charitable endeavor.”

The kill shot: “Senator Graham: You may be a senator in the U.S. Senate, but anyone who hears your statements might think you’re a member of the Israeli Knesset, because you defend Israel’s interests more than you defend the interests of the American people themselves. We will not enter this war to serve the interests of others, nor will we sacrifice our sons in a conflict that could have been avoided through diplomacy and political solutions. We want peace and stability. We will not accept being forced down the path of war, nor will we accept being fuel for others’ battles.” The Gulf-U.S. alliance just cracked in public. Over oil. Over being used. Over being told to sacrifice their people for American profits and Israeli security. Meanwhile, the UAE is treating its residents and tourists like their own nationals (Arabs, Israelis, Europeans, Americans, and Asians alike), and resiliently ensuring their airports, ports and infrastructure operate flawlessly. Not lost on them is the media wars being played to bait them into joining a war they never wanted in the first place.”]

Ha. Lindsey Graham has been paid millions by Jewish and Israeli interests.

Interesting claim about the Khamenei (senior) assassination. Could it be true? If so, a cunning move.

As noted on the blog previously, the USA (and Israel, but mostly USA) can trash Iran, but what they cannot do is invade it and occupy it.

Perhaps so, but what could such sleepers achieve? Maybe targeted assassination of pro-Israel politicians, maybe car bombs etc, but nothing (as far as I can guess, anyway) on the larger scale.

The “leak” may be a way of getting the American public, a majority of which opposes the war, to rally behind “the flag” Trump and the Israel lobby.

Yet another Israeli Jewish war crime.

I made, if memory serves, a “guest appearance” on that “Hope not Hate” screed some years ago (around 2018, I think), but not since, as far as I know. I suppose the Jews concerned do not want to give my blog publicity.

Fine. Then “they” will not be able to claim the benefit of it should they need it in the (maybe quite near) future…

Note how the (half-) Jew threatens Piers Morgan…

I have blogged about that one previously.

That is what “they” do.

[“Putin’s important position on oil and the Strait of Hormuz Putin convened a meeting on the situation in the global oil and gas market. Statements by the Russian President:

Global oil prices have risen by 30% over the week. The current high prices for energy resources are temporary, and Russia understands this.

Russian energy companies have always been characterized by stability. They need to take advantage of the current situation — use the revenue to repay debts to banks.

Oil production, which is tied to the Strait of Hormuz, risks completely stopping in the next month.

Russia is ready to work with Europeans on oil and gas supplies, but they need to send a signal.

Russia will continue to supply oil and gas to those countries that are reliable buyers, including Slovakia and Hungary.“]

Late thought

Not particularly original, perhaps, but I am wondering whether Trump’s extremely deferential attitude to Netanyahu is because the Israelis have evidence on tape of sex crimes by Trump; after all, the Epstein set-up was an Israeli Intelligence operation, run entirely by Jews. Trump is up to his neck in it all.

Israel would be a smoking ruin without US help, yet the Israelis, despite being supplicants, treat the Americans as if they, the Americans, are the ones desperate for support.

The only explanation is Jewish/Israeli infiltration of the US Government and, particularly, Trump being under some measure of (((control))).

How utterly stupid so many standard British people sound these days.

What was it that I was constantly hearing on British TV until about a day or two ago, about how safe and nice Dubai is to live in?

In a century’s time, places like Dubai will be ruined and abandoned hulks sticking up out of the desert sands, the only visitors a few camel-borne Arabs.

Quite possibly, Tel Aviv will be similar.

Part-Jew nonentity, Tom Tugendhat MP, wants the UK to deploy its limited resources to help Israel, nothing else. Shut up, you fifth-columnist.

You need to go further. “Whites Only” at elections (both voters and candidates).

On those figures, Starmer himself would lose his seat in Parliament.

That poll translates to a Commons with about 394 Reform MPs (very large majority), 60 LibDems (official, very weak, Opposition), 52 Greens, 45 SNP, 44 Cons, 29 Labour [etc].

I look forward to something like that happening in a couple of years, or 2029, then to a pseudo-national Reform UK government which (in the pocket of the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby, and unwilling to really tackle the “blacking and browning” of Britain, as well as being pseudo-“libertarian” and finance-capitalist) will be unable to “do de business“, and so will have to give way to real social nationalism.

Dan Hodges and other commentators keep saying that (at 35%, 30%, even 28%), Reform has reached its national electoral ceiling. Maybe so. At 35%, I would probably agree, but that is irrelevant as long as the Labour and Conservative parties are on 16%, 18%, even if they go up to 22% or more.

As for the Greens, so long as they remain below 25% (and at present they cannot even make it to 20 %; at present they are between 12% and 18%), there is no chance of their being able to form a government; they will, however, ensure that Labour cannot form one either.

That one would translate to Reform UK having about 336 MPs (small majority), Greens 88 (official Opposition but weak), Cons 74, LibDems 65, SNP 45, and Lab— 15! [etc].

The opinion polls differ slightly, but all have put Reform at the top, and usually well clear of the pack, for about 18 months now.

I had no idea that Sam Melia had completed the whole of his sentence actually in custody. If so, it must be because he refused to surrender his principles and refused to compromise. Well done.

Welcome back to the fight; this time I know our side will win” (to coin a phrase…).

“They” don’t change.

Yet the Jews still whine about alleged similar events in Poland and the Ukraine in 1939-1941, where other Jews were, they say, the victims.

A pack of extremely malicious Jews. Several of the leaders of that tiny but (of course) “well-funded” cabal have engaged in attempts to pervert the course of justice, and Falter himself has lied on oath in court more than once, in my opinion.

Trump remains what he was in 2016, when I, still then having a Twitter account (a pack of Jews had me expelled in 2018) described him as “a squawking parrot in a gilded cage, and guarded by a phalanx of Jews“.

I was right. I am right.

Iran will rebuild, and I think will dig ever deeper into those mountains over there, constructing missile factories and launch bases far below ground-level. Certainly conventional, possibly nuclear, missiles. One day, tens of thousands of drones will take to the air, followed by thousands of missiles. Their destination will be Israel, which will then be obliterated.

Regionally, the conflict has already put paid to 99% if not 100% of tourism to Dubai, for example. Who will be going there even if the airport re-opens?

As for oil and gas, it can be sourced from other parts of the world, but at a price. The “cat of the Kremlin” must be contemplating the cream…

Striking yet not sinking? I am not sufficiently informed to know what it takes to sink such a vessel these days.

Google AI says: “Four ballistic missiles can severely damage a large aircraft carrier, potentially disabling its flight deck and combat capabilities, but sinking a modern supercarrier likely requires more hits, according to naval experts. While a few missiles cause major damage, deep, watertight compartments and heavy armor are designed to prevent total sinking“.

So there we are.

That Alex Armstrong character is yet another pseudo-national GB News talking head. Israel, and the JQ generally, is always the touchstone. Anyone supporting the Jewish lobby is at best useless and stupid, at worst an enemy.

Hero.

[“The Blair years (1997–2007) can be read as a “rewiring” of the British state: a huge burst of legislation that expanded state capacity, shifted key powers away from direct electoral control, and built legal frameworks that later governments found hard to unwind. The result, critics argue, is a UK that feels less governable: immigration pressures that look structurally “locked in”, an economy shaped by technocratic monetary policy rather than democratic choices, a voting system perceived as more open to abuse, and a general sense that the country is smothered in rules while basic competence and trust have declined. On immigration, the argument isn’t that Blair “caused” today’s numbers single-handedly, but that he helped build the modern machinery of mass migration management—and also raised expectations and rights around remaining in the UK. The Immigration and Asylum Act 1999 created the modern asylum support framework, including Section 95 support and the dispersal system (moving asylum seekers around the country rather than concentrating in London). In practice, dispersal entrenched a long-running national system of accommodation contracts, local authority impacts, and political flashpoints—so when asylum claims rose later, the infrastructure (and the costs) scaled up rather than disappearing. Later, the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002 further reshaped appeals, removals, and the legal pathways around asylum and immigration decisions. A critic’s point is that Blair-era reforms normalised a permanent “immigration management state”—and once you have a large legal-administrative apparatus for it, you rarely get smaller numbers; you get larger budgets, more contractors, more case backlogs, and more political dependency on the system. Blair’s rights framework is also central to this critique. The Human Rights Act 1998 brought the European Convention on Human Rights into domestic UK law, making rights-based challenges easier to bring in UK courts. While defenders say it prevents abuse, critics say it also made removals, detention, and deportation more legally contested and slower—especially once immigration law became heavily litigated. (That criticism is strongest when combined with later case law and later legislation, but the “plumbing” starts in 1998.) On the economy, the standout is the Bank of England Act 1998, which put interest-rate decisions in the hands of the Bank’s Monetary Policy Committee (MPC), i.e., operational independence from ministers. The case for it was credibility and low inflation. The case against it is democratic deficit and distributional pain. When inflation spikes, the MPC tightens policy by raising rates. That hits mortgage holders, renters (via landlords’ costs), and small businesses first. In other words, a technocratic anti-inflation tool produces very real household hardship, and there’s no politician directly accountable for the vote. The government still sets the overall inflation target remit (now CPI 2% in modern practice), but the day-to-day levers are independent. Critics argue that this framework can feel like the public is being “disciplined” for inflation that may have been driven by energy shocks, supply problems, or fiscal choices—yet the blunt instrument is paid for by ordinary borrowers. On democracy and postal voting, critics point to Blair-era changes that encouraged “convenience voting” and widened the surface area for fraud or coercion. The Representation of the People Act 2000 and related reforms helped normalise postal voting expansion (later accelerated by subsequent governments and regulations), shifting voting from supervised polling stations into homes and informal settings. The critical claim isn’t that postal voting is automatically corrupt; it’s that it is easier to pressure family members, harvest ballots, or exploit weak handling practices—especially in tight local contests. The fact that the UK keeps updating postal vote rules and resilience (including recent guidance and reform pushes) is often cited by critics as evidence the system needed “hardening” after expansion. In short: Blair-era reform opened the door; later years had to retrofit controls. Finally, complaints about over-legislation is really about a governing style: Blair’s New Labour embraced “delivery” via targets, regulators, new offences, new agencies, and constant statutory change. The partial architecture to this: Terrorism Act 2000 and RIPA 2000 expanding state surveillance powers; multiple criminal justice reforms; major reorganisations in health, education, local government; and a steady stream of “fixes” that created new compliance burdens. Even when individual laws had plausible aims, critics argue the cumulative effect was a society that is more monitored, more regulated, and less locally self-directed—yet not necessarily more functional. So, the critical “how we got into today’s mess” story goes like this: Blair set up systems that persist. An immigration management and rights framework that makes rapid reduction harder; a monetary regime that can impose severe household pain without direct electoral accountability; a voting approach that prioritised convenience and then had to be patched against abuse; and a legislative habit of constant intervention that expanded the state’s footprint everywhere. Even where later governments made different choices, they mostly did so inside the institutions Blair built—meaning Britain’s problems now feel structural, not just political.“]

Saturday quiz

This week brings a narrow victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He scored 5/10, but I trumped that with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 2, 3, and 8.

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-13118755/Fertility-rate-plunges-time-low.html

Women are having fewer children than ever before, official figures revealed today. 

Office for National Statistics data shows the fertility rate — the average number of children a woman has — in England and Wales slumped to 1.49 in 2022. 

It marks the lowest figure since records began in 1938, laying bare the reality of the ongoing baby bust that threatens to cripple the economy. 

Not a single one of the 330-plus authorities in both countries has a fertility rate that is above ‘replacement level’, according to MailOnline analysis.

[Daily Mail]

When one considers that (overall) the blacks and browns etc are having children, the birthrate among white people (“the people formerly known as British”) is seen more clearly as being at a rock-bottom level.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13119039/MP-Bob-Stewart-conviction-racially-aggravated-offence-quashed.html

An MP has had his conviction for racially aggravated offense quashed after he told an activist to ‘go back to Bahrain.’

Bob Stewart, MP for Beckenham in south-east London, made the remark towards activist Sayed Ahmed Alwadaei during a row outside the Foreign Office’s Lancaster House on December 14 2022. 

Last November, Mr Stewart was convicted for a racially aggravated public order offence and was fined £600. Following the conviction, Mr Stewart lost the Tory whip and has since sat in the House of Commons as an independent. 

Now, following an appeal, his conviction has been overturned today at Southwark Crown Court.”

[Daily Mail]

One has to wonder how absolutely stupid are the police and Crown Prosecution Service that this was ever brought to a trial. Mad.

Incidentally, note that the Daily Mail wannabee “journalist” scribbler spells “offence” as “offense“, American-style, in the first line. Newspapers have declined in every way since the 1970s.

As for my own conviction under the very stupid Communications Act 2003, s.127 (trial was on 17 November 2023), I am due to be sentenced in a few weeks’ time. After that, I shall have 3 weeks in which to decide whether to appeal to the Crown Court.

Britain Occupied territory

For me, what is most alarming is that dim people like Hoyle can get to some of the highest-status positions in our country and society.

At least he is an animal-lover in his private life. I can approve of that.

Paul Golding/Britain First is only partly correct. While Islamism is a threat to the UK, so is Jew-Zionism, which is far more embedded in the power structure. Paul Golding always attacks the one but not the other, which may be one reason why Britain First has a poor electoral record; most recently, 1.6% at the Wellingborough by-election, only 8th out of 11 candidates.

At Wellingborough, Britain First’s 8th-placed position came after Labour, Conservative, Reform, LibDems, an Independent, Greens, and another Independent, only beating the Monster Raving Loony and two more Independents. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wellingborough_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s.

Only one caveat: I do not know whether those numbers are inflation-adjusted.

By sending long-range “Taurus” cruise missiles to Ukraine, they will make Germany part of the Ukrainian conflict, German politician Sara Wagenknecht told the German media.

“You really think that if we deliver more weapons, the Ukrainians will be able to drive the Russians out of Crimea? Do you think Russia, a nuclear power, will allow that? If we bring war to Russia with German weapons, then we will also bring war to Germany,” she said.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahra_Wagenknecht. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sahra_Wagenknecht#Refugee_policy. Interesting.

Sara Wagenknecht only finished her secondary education in 1988, a year before the collapse of the DDR (and, incidentally, the same year in which I myself saw the country, though only briefly), so she could not have been a member of the Aufklärung (the foreign intelligence component of the State Security apparat or “Stasi“). Had she been older, one might wonder.

Lee Anderson, and Ashfield (Derbyshire)

The maverick MP has been suspended from being under the Conservative Party whip.

Naturally, I do not agree with his statement that London is “run by Muslims”. Sadiq Khan is from a Muslim background, but has been pretty much in the Jew-Zionist pocket for many years.

It would be more accurate to characterize Sadiq Khan as “anti-white”.

As to Anderson himself, I suggest that he is trying to bolster his position vis a vis the General Election expected later this year.

Until 2019, Ashfield had always been won by Labour since its inception in 1955, with one closely-run by-electoral exception in 1977. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashfield_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s. “New Labour” and Gloria de Piero changed all that.

David Marquand, a former MP for Ashfield (1966-1977; he is still alive, at 89): “Originally a tentative supporter of Blair’s New Labour, he has since become a trenchant critic, arguing that “New Labour has ‘modernised’ the social-democratic tradition out of all recognition”, even while retaining the over-centralisation and disdain for the radical intelligentsia of the old “Labourite” tradition.” [Wikipedia]. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Marquand.

Marquand defected to the SDP and then was honourable enough to step down as MP, not contesting the by-election.

In fact, Marquand was himself rather intellectual:

Marquand addressed Britain’s relative economic decline in The Unprincipled Society (1988) and The New Reckoning (1997). He argued that this decline was caused by Britain’s failure to become a developmental state like France, Germany and Japan. In those countries state intervention had encouraged industrial development and had facilitated the necessary adjustments to competition. Britain, however, was wedded to an economic liberalism which prevented the state from undertaking the necessary measures to meet the country’s developmental needs.[7] In The New Reckoning Marquand claimed: “The economies that have succeeded more spectacularly have been those fostered by developmental states, where public power, acting in concert with private interest, has induced market forces to flow in the desired direction”.[8]” [Wikipedia].

In fact, Ashfield is not quite as “safe Labour” as the history might suggest superficially. Gloria de Piero won in 2010 by a majority of under half a point (0.4%, 192 votes) from a LibDem.

While de Piero’s majority increased in 2015 (as the LibDems imploded), in 2017 she beat the Conservative candidate by less than one point (0.9%, 441 votes). An Ashfield Independent came third with over 9% of the vote.

In 2019, Lee Anderson won convincingly: 39.3% of the vote, followed in second (27.6%) by another “Ashfield Independent”, Jason Zadrozny [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Zadrozny], who has had a chequered political and personal history. In third place came Labour, with only 24.4%.

Zadrozny is going to contest the seat at GE 2024.

So far, apart from Anderson (who may or may not be standing as Conservative Party candidate, depending on whether he gets back the Conservative whip), only the Ashfield Independent and Reform UK are presently known to be likely to stand at GE 2024, but a full field is almost guaranteed. There may be a dozen or more candidates.

At first, I thought that Anderson could probably be written off as post-GE 2024 MP, but now am not so sure. He has now (whether by design or not) distanced himself from the unpopular Conservative leadership —and possibly from the equally-unpopular Conservative Party— is anti-EU, anti-migration invasion etc, and is now known nationwide. He must have at least a chance of retaining his seat. If he does, and if he also retains it as a “Conservative” MP, he might be one of 100 or even as few as 50 such MPs. Who knows what might then happen?

[Update, 13 October 2024: In the end, what happened at GE 2024 was that Lee Anderson stood as Reform UK candidate, and won handsomely with 42.8% of the vote. He is thus now one of 5 Reform UK MPs. The Labour candidate came a poor second with 29%; third place, with 15.7%, went to that Independent, Zadrozny, who faces yet another Crown Court trial soon, in February 2025: numerous charges of fraud and income tax evasion, as well as possession of cocaine): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashfield_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s].

Alison Chabloz

Usually-reliable sources report that, though still incarcerated at Bronzefield Prison (near Heathrow), Alison is in excellent spirits.

Alison has apparently just been transferred to a different wing of the prison. She has a cell of her own, which contains, inter alia, a new mattress and a television which receives 30 channels, as well as all UK radio stations.

Alison’s cell door remains open all day, she can come and go as she pleases, and can shower, or go out for fresh air, whenever she wants.

One amusing point: it seems that a prisoner recognized Alison from last year and that, as a result, Alison was introduced to a number of other prisoners, who asked her to perform her songs. This resulted in what perhaps could be described as a general “sing-song”, the prisoners singing along with Alison. Pity that it could not have been filmed and distributed on social media. That would have made “you know who” (((s))) fume!

In other Alison Chabloz news, her upcoming trial has been deferred to a later date. It had been set down for today, 1 September 2021, with a time estimate of one day. That date was vacated recently. Now it seems that the trial will be held on a later date, if the matter proceeds at all.

37,000+?! How many “interpreters” etc did the UK have in Afghanistan? This is just more migration-invasion. I reluctantly agree to the evacuation of a relative few ex-collaborators and their families, on the ground of honour and loyalty (they could perhaps be funded to make a fresh start outside the UK, and outside Europe, in a more suitable region and jurisdiction), but not to this nonsense.

On the wider point, the Western allies have deserted many of those who worked with them in Afghanistan. The USA, as main component in the occupation, has shown itself to be unreliable and, indeed, disloyal. A matter which may prove to be a strategic error of large proportions.

This needs to become the norm in the UK as well.
