I recall my own visit to the Kremlin in 1993. A tourist visit to the Kremlin, in effect, though I was in Moscow on business. Most of my time, though, was my own.
I paid my few roubles early one summer morning, after having swum, as usual, at the Moskva swimming pool at Kropotkinskaya. I would have been the first visitor that morning, had I not gone to sleep in the sun while sitting on a low wall by the little ticket kiosk (now replaced by a modern visitor centre); a Russian family thus bought their tickets ahead of me. In fact, it was their arguing with the ticket lady that woke me up.
My komplekt of tickets entitled me to visit all parts of the Kremlin open to paying visitors (other areas are closed off for the exclusive use of the Russian Government; the Kremlin is more or less like Whitehall, but inside a walled fortification). I visited the Kremlin churches (I was the only visitor, in fact, at that hour). I also wandered around other parts and saw, from above, the green Land Rover of the British Ambassador arriving, Union Jack bravely flying in the slight breeze.
[“On this day of Covid reflection I reflect on how there was no pandemic, Covid was a hoax and the lies of the state inflicted uncounted numbers of deaths and injuries upon the world.“— Neil Oliver]
You still see a few facemask loonies about, here and there.
There is still a disinclination to understand that the “scamdemic” or “panicdemic” was a massive psy-op right across the world. So many people still believe that there was a genuine and deadly “global pandemic”…
Now there is a real public health danger, as millions fall victim by reason of the “vaccines” having caused serious medical problems, especially heart problems. Huge numbers of people, often healthy young people, worldwide have just dropped dead.
One aspect of the years 2020-2022 was the way in which a combination of repressive pseudo-public-health “measures” (invalid laws, regulations made superficially under those laws, and State propaganda, amplified by very well-paid “useful idiots” such as Piers Morgan, James O’Brien etc), enforced compliance.
Any dissidents were labelled, in the Press, on radio etc, “Covidiots” for saying (as I did, on the blog) that people camping on deserted Welsh hills, or walking in the Peak District, or taking a spin on the empty roads on their motorbikes or in their own cars, were not thereby “killing people” etc.
Some people even got prosecuted and convicted for such terrible crimes as having a picnic, though most of such convictions were later overturned when the hysteria had somewhat abated.
The police were particularly stupid during the “Covid” panic. In fact, I should say that the present contempt for the police in the UK, though it had been developing for a number of years, is mainly a reaction to the memory of police shouting from helicopters at elderly couples walking on hills, and examining people’s shopping to adjudge whether purchases were “reasonable” or not (!), which is and was not the job of the police; neither are they authorized by law to do that.
The reach of the State has extended, partly by reason of the craven response of most of the public to the dictatorial measures imposed during the scamdemic/panicdemic. For example, you can now not only be arrested, charged, indeed imprisoned, for owning a copy (hard copy or online copy) of such a work as the 1970s Anarchist’s Cookbook, but also even for simply owning a machete or the like, even if kept in your own home. Some such laws that existed prior to 2020 (eg about supposed “terrorist materials”) are now seemingly used more often, indeed often against young people (sometimes still at school). Socio-political hysteria.
Just as well that the Rhodesian Army panga (a kind of machete), in a handsome light-tan thick leather sheath, which I brought back from my visit to Rhodesia in 1977, was later stolen by the staff of the Kazakh removals company which moved my personal possessions (at least, the ones they did not steal) from Almaty to London 20+ years later.
Well, the “panicdemic” is now history, though attempts are still made to revive it, and with it the control-State of 2020-2022, but new panics have been substituted. At present, the panic all over the mass media is around the non-existent threat of Russian invasion of Western Europe, including the UK. It’s rubbish, of course, but the unthinking part, maybe a majority, of the public seem ready to believe that “we” “have to” fight Russia quite soon.

If ever the UK had a Prime Minister incredibly out of touch, it is Starmer-stein.
Starmer thinks that his pathetic attempts to play the world statesman resonate in this country. No, they do not. Why? Partly because his foreign affairs activities only underline how weak and divided are the European states, partly because Starmer has no credibility at all as a statesman, partly because everything is falling apart in this country. It seems that only Starmer and his Labour Friends of Israel cabal are unaware of how bad things are getting. Policing, NHS, the ever-more-mean benefits system, falling real take-home disposable income, the courts, prisons and, above all, the continuing migration-invasion (1,000-2,000 illegals every week, and also tens of thousands of “legal” immigrants, every week).
Late thoughts about Starmer, Rachel Reeves, and their Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment
Looking at the words of Starmer, Reeves, and various other nonentities now in Cabinet, particularly about their threatened cuts to the State benefits of the disabled, sick and others, can it really be said that the present fake “Labour” government is different in any way at all from the “Conservative” governments of 2010-2024 and, especially, that of 2010-2015? I see no difference at all.
This “Labour” (Labour Friends of Israel) government offers the British people nothing, nothing at all. Both evil and stupid.
“Ireland has exploded into a wave of violence as anti-migrant anger is at an all time high – after the number of people applying to come into the country rocketed by nearly 300 per cent five years.
Once sleepy towns are now homes to hundreds of asylum seekers while tent cities have been set up along Dublin’s Grand Canal.
And with far-right sentiment at fever pitch the country is on a knife edge – with even Ireland’s left-wing politicians admitting that the influx of migrants was driving a spike in homelessness.
The government has previously spoken favourably about migration. Jamie Drummond, Co-Founder and Executive Director of NGO ONE and a friend of U2 star Bono, told the International Development Committee in 2015 that young immigrants were needed to help with Ireland’s ‘senile’ aging population.
“Just as this country and this continent will be at its most senile demographically speaking, Africa will be the world’s youth and the supply of the world’s energy, creativity and dynamism.”
[Daily Mail]
The final comment, apparently by a friend of grasping hypocrite “Bono” shows that he (Daily Mail says “she“, for some reason) has little of use to contribute: anyone who imagines that Africa can give white Europe “energy, creativity and dynamism” is either deluded or working to an agenda.
Very sad that Ireland has become so contaminated. I saw it in the 1970s, and again in the mid-1980s. From what I have seen on TV and newspapers, it has become busier and, in recent decades, more affluent in parts than when I was there but also, now, far less pleasant by reason of the migration invasion.
At least the Irish, unlike most of the English, are not going down without a fight.
You can see that process happening in the UK. In fact, it has been a factor for decades, but the huge migration-invasion since, arguably, 1989, is now completely destroying the “democratic rights” of the (real) British people.
Somewhere around 15%-20% of the UK population is now non-white; in England, the proportion is far higher, around 25%, and in the major cities such as London even higher, somewhere around 30% if not more. Some cities in the Midlands and North are already majority non-white.
Even in the UK as a whole, the average non-white presence in primary schools is now somewhere around 40%. As shown, that means that in cities such as London, the primary schools are already about 50% or more non-white.
[In 1951, there were effectively no non-whites in the UK; the few that did exist were in the major ports, including London (graphic from Wikipedia)]
Incidentally, you can see from that graphic what a lie are those TV dramas (eg, Grantchester) which show even small villages in the 1940s or 1950s with racially-mixed populations.
People of my age [b.1956] know the truth, but younger people, especially children, are being brainwashed via the TV, cinema, streaming services, and at school, to believe what amounts to a lying narrative.
By 2050, at latest, the UK population will be majority non-white. Yes, some non-whites will not support later waves of immigration; however, most will, and do.
If Britain does not have, by 2030 or so, a genuinely social-national government, or at very least a Reform UK-type conservative semi-nationalist one, you can forget the “Parliamentary road”.

Fake Labour has no “plan”, except to allow profiteering bodge-housebuilders to make money destroying what is left of our countryside by building hutches for migrant-invaders and their offspring.
Now, the msm has awoken to what dissidents were saying on Twitter/X 6 months or more ago— there is no sufficient workforce to build said hutches.
You see the agenda, though, in that “i paper” bullet-point list: the UK “needs” more migrants to (supposedly) build more houses because…Britain has so many migrants (who are breeding). Brilliant…

The “freedom of the Press” is largely a mirage. The Jew-Zionist cabals control or strongly influence much of it in the West, especially in the USA and UK. There is also the point that connected groups, families etc own the main newspapers and magazines— Times, Telegraph, Mail etc.

“If a grown man believes that he is a woman, and takes steps to live his life to reflect that? Good for him. None of my business, it has absolutely nothing to do with me. However, when the rest of society is bullied into submission to accommodate that – we should draw the line. We should not tolerate being forced to call them women. It’s just not true. Certainly not allowing access to women’s sport, where a biological male has vast physical advantages. Trump’s position on this is the right one – it should be banned. It is entirely unfair and unjust. Women-only spaces must remain solely for women. The policing of our language on this, particularly in a medical context, has to stop. It’s dangerous, warped and does not represent actual reality. Men cannot get pregnant, and women cannot have a penis. Sorry, but that’s just a fact. And most of all? Stop forcing the idea that we can be born in the ‘wrong’ bodies on impressionable children. That poison needs to be kept AWAY from schools – ban it, and sack anyone in any position of authority who forces it on young boys and girls, potentially leading to permanent life-altering medical procedures. Grown adults are free to live their lives however they choose, but do not expect the rest of the country to change how it operates to accommodate this. We need to be respectful of individual choices, but we must not deny reality.”

The thing people need to realise is that the Government's problems aren't being created because they're pursuing some hard-line Left wing ideology. It's because the Ming Vase strategy meant Labour has entered government without any clear plan or strategy at all.
The “@louderry” tweeter ignores the fact (as she would, as a Labour-label supporter) that the continuing mass immigration or migration-invasion renders otiose any governmental plans to “bring in investment and fund public services” (even if Labour had any such plan, which I doubt).
The public services, in all senses, from NHS and police to water supplies and housing, are swamped, and will be swamped even more, by the ever-rising migrant tide. A million a year, in rough figures.
You still see tweets, or comments on rigged TV panel “discussion” shows, that the only reasons people don’t want mass immigration are because they do not want Indian or Pakistani NHS doctors with doubtful standards, or because they do not want to see blacks wandering about in their local area. Partly, yes, perhaps (and why should they have to tolerate that anyway?), but mainly it is because to import a population, every single year, the equivalent in size to that of Birmingham, or twice the size of that presently inhabiting Manchester, is a sure-fire recipe for total disaster.
It makes no difference at all whether the immigrants enter legally or not, except that the “illegals” are even less likely to have any useful qualifications or skills. The result, over generations, will be the same.
'No matter how admirable a #constitution may look upon paper, it will be ineffectual unless the unwritten constitution, the web of custom and convention, affirms an enduring moral order of obligation and personal responsibility'. Russel Kirk
This is exactly what those who favour a “written constitution” for the UK, or who come from the USA, often fail to understand. Britain does have a Constitution, and actually it is not entirely “unwritten”; it is contained in innumerable precedents, laws, customs, conventional procedures etc, but is not contained in one quasi-sacred document, as is the Constitution of the USA.
The best way to understand the British Constitution is to read a student text. English law undergraduate students, for example, usually have to take a Constitutional Law module in the first year of their degree.

“The regulations most destructive of growth are those created by moral panics — net zero, diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives (DEI), environmental social governance (ESG), “hate speech” and on. This government has created a new regulator every week. Each chips away at the ability of businesses to focus on selling their products and managing their employees. DEI and ESG are destroying the London Stock Exchange. The ludicrous proposal for a new football regulator will muck up one of our most successful sectors. Net zero is wrecking our automotive industry, our steel industry, our petrochemical industry, oil and gas businesses, farming, housebuilding … you name it. As Reeves is beginning to understand, net zero must be entirely put aside if we want to have growth.
No one is explaining the obvious: there is no money. In 1950, the UK had the fifth-highest GDP per capita in the world. Now we’re 27th and dropping. Yet we still act as though we have money to burn, spending more per capita on benefits than our wealth allows. We spend what “feels right” or seems “fair” rather than what we can afford. More prudent, formerly much poorer countries such as Poland are forecast to overtake us. Our brightest and best are leaving the country.”
In a sense, correct. My remedy, though, is of course not the same as that proposed in the Times (free-market pseudo-libertarianism), but a form of social nationalism.
Slightly to my surprise, I realised, after a week or two of Starmer-Labour, that the new Cabinet was clueless to an extent that rivalled or indeed outdid those of Cameron-Levita, Theresa May, “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss, and the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak.
“Rachel from Accounts and Customer Relations” is not even the worst of the bunch. I mean, just look at David Lammy!
That Times article has sensible elements, but then degenerates into a polemic against the Welfare State and even (up to a point) the State itself. The Ayn Rand poison (((poison))) has contaminated socio-political thought in both the USA and UK.
He may know about business and, perhaps, economics, but his socio-political understanding seems to leave much to be desired.
The polemic continues thus:
“Our focus should be on citizens’ responsibilities — to get a job, support themselves and their family and contribute to the tax base (53 per cent of citizens currently get more in benefits than they pay in taxes).
But who is going to say this? All the major political parties regard it as electoral suicide to oppose the pension triple lock, cut disability payments, scrap regulators. Just look at the hysterical reaction to Labour’s eminently sensible cuts in the winter fuel allowance. Political leaders got the message: we must pretend that current levels of government spending are entirely affordable. But until some politician can persuade the electorate of the hard realities of what’s needed to get us growing again, things can only get worse.”
So the “noble” “lord” supports taking away the winter fuel help for pensioners, supports reducing the State pension itself, and supports (further) impoverishing the sick and disabled etc? Terrible, and actually unnecessary.
I agree, though, that there must come a point at which the British people say “ENOUGH!”…but not to institute a society of “Ronnie Reagan meets Ayn Rand”. More like “English tradition meets National Socialism and social nationalism, and they meet the Threefold Social Order”…

“I can’t get my head around this… Labour promised to clean up politics—then took loads of dodgy freebies, handed jobs to their mates, and approved contracts for major donors.

They said they would freeze energy bills—now energy bills are rising. They said they’d stop the boats—then scrapped our only deterrent and introduced more pull factors. They said they’d look after farmers—then tax them out of existence. They claimed they’d keep us safe and be tough on crime—then released dangerous criminals from our prisons instead of deporting foreign offenders. They claimed there was a £22bn black hole and ‘difficult decisions’ were needed—then increased spending by £70bn, spent billions on foreign aid, and billions more on illegal immigrants. They said they would respect Brexit—now they want to align us closer to the EU. They said, ‘honesty is the cornerstone of the Labour Party’—then lied about Southport and everything else on this list… and more. I could go on… This Labour gov’t is the most incompetent, heartless, anti-British, hypocritical, and dishonest in history. We need a general election. NOW!“

The reason I disagree with that (leaving aside the extra point that I never use the old and outdated “right/left” stuff) is because the original tweet fixates on the fact that FPTP voting “punishes division“. What is important is what is happening beyond the crumbling walls of the Westminster monkeyhouse.
At the 2024 General Election, over 40% of the eligible voters did not vote, many no doubt out of disgust with the whole system and the System parties.
Out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 did not vote. Only 4 out of every 20 voted for fake Labour, and probably half of those did so because a “Conservative” candidate was the only apparent alternative.
Labour’s incompetent and freeloading ministers, and its Labour Friends of Israel leading cabal, may think they are sitting pretty on their very large Commons majority but, outside the walls of Parliament itself today, 100,000 protesters were demanding the release of “Tommy Robinson”.
Robinson is “controlled opposition”, of course. So be it.
The rise of Reform UK (despite Farage’s unreliable history etc) shows anger at the way Britain is going. For Labour, and Westminster Bubble drones, to look only at numbers of seats and at the way FPTP voting distorts public opinion, is very short-sighted.
At present, it seems that, yes, Labour may be the largest party in the Commons after the next general election, but even if Reform UK fails to dislodge Labour from that position, it may well come second and thus become the Opposition. That would in itself destroy the basic structure that has been in place for over a century.
The likelihood at present (with the Con Party still embedded in some parts of the country, as are the LibDems, and both likely to get 50-100 seats next time) is a hung Parliament and thus a weak Labour minority government, though if Reform does really well, the outcome could be a fairly weak Reform government, backed up by the surviving Con MPs.
Outside the supposedly-hallowed walls of the Palace of Westminster, though, the English/British people are murmuring. The Tommy Robinson protest, the summer 2024 protests, the now-constant stream of trials of social-national people who have said or done the (politically) “wrong” things (and then been entrapped by System police, MI5, the “Clown” Prosecution Service, and the System judges) speak to underlying discontent.
Reform UK, Tommy Robinson etc, are merely part of the journey, not the destination.
There may come a time, not so far down the line, when what happens in and around Parliament becomes only the outcome of what happens outside Parliament.
As to Goodwin’s comment above, I agree, but I also tend to agree (sort-of) with Lenin: “A revolution without firing squads is not worth much.”
“The Queen would never have allowed this to happen“…What universe does that tweeter, “@Lotus 17”, live in? The late Queen died only 3 years ago…Does that tweeter really think that the decline of the UK has only happened since 2022? Try (at least) 1989.
Woodrow Wyatt, in his diaries [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodrow_Wyatt#The_Journals], expressed the view that, inter alia, the Royal Family did not care whether Britain descended into poverty and general decline, because they, the “royals” would still be sitting pretty atop of it all, and insulated from the badness with which almost everyone else would be contending.
When I read Wyatt’s diaries, 25+ years ago, I thought that his point about the “royals” was arguable but maybe too harsh. Now I agree completely. Look at Charles, desperately trying —and failing— to fill his late mother’s boots. Look at tame thick princeling William, no doubt at least, or somewhat, well-meaning, so be it. Look at even thicker princeling, Harry, “the Harry formerly known as Prince”, not forgetting Meghan Mulatta. All of them signed up to the crazed “multikulti society”, all willing to pay lip-service to “holocaust” propaganda etc.
As I said they would, Labour is now loosening not strengthening Britain's borders by removing barriers to illegal migrants becoming citizens and no longer requiring scientific age checks
You might as well put a big neon sign on the White Cliffs of Dover that reads "come on in!"
If the already-rigged “democratic” process becomes even less honest, even less responsive to the needs of the British people, then the whole Parliamentary system will have to be bypassed. Action directe…
It may be, though, that the Reform UK upsurge will lead, before too long, maybe by 2030, and against the will of Reform’s leaders, to a further movement of the “Overton Window”…to a huge revolution of social nationalism.

In my own mind, knowing two or three people, previously healthy, who (having been multiply-“vaccinated” by the anti-“Covid” poison) have had to endure heart bypasses etc, I have no doubt that the sane thing to do is to avoid being dosed with this pharmaceutical effluent. I avoided the supposed “vaccines” and am very glad I did.
Doubt that I now count as anything other than one of the “newly-poor”, really; I used to use Waitrose often, about 4x a week, but over the past 15 years, especially the last 5 years, the quality of produce has worsened (much worse than Tesco, or even Lidl) and the once-stellar service from always-pleasant staff of all ages has deteriorated to the point of no return. I therefore rarely use Waitrose now.
My local area has a Marks & Spencer food store, and there is a Tesco 5 miles away, a Lidl and Aldi about the same distance. I like Lidl for its foreign products’ weeks, mainly, when they sell such as Polish sour-cherry juice, Greek feta etc.
As for free coffee, when you have to take your own cup in, the offer becomes much less attractive.
Ha ha! Ridiculous System talking head blames online retailer for selling a knife used by a non-white crazie to attack a child. That is so typical of Britain today.
In the past, if a shop sold a knife, or even a firearm, later used by some criminal or lunatic to hurt or kill some one else, the criminal or lunatic was blamed, not the retailer!
The James O’Brien type (a type found not only in the msm, but also among the more self-deluding part of the public) is desperate not to blame the influx of backward populations, aka “the diversity”, for crimes of that type. Oh, no, it must be the fault of those selling knives!
I wanted to buy a knife (for more usual purposes) recently, in Tesco (I think it was). Sorry, we no longer sell knives…
When will this madness end? When “the diversity” are chucked out, I suppose, and not until then.
Actually, I do not blame only the criminal or lunatic— I blame also those responsible for importing backward populations into Europe, including the UK.

People still want to believe that the political and electoral systems are honest, and have the interests of the British people at heart, even as it becomes blatantly obvious that that is not so.
But they would be just stating facts…. I get the feeling that facts are racist, along with everything else. 🤔
Meanwhile, the new “Labour” bastards are throwing money at pointless “climate change” rubbish all over the world, at foreign aid, £3 billion a year going to the brutal and doomed regime of the Jew Zelensky in Kiev, and huge amounts of money are wasted on sheltering and feeding migrant invaders; and on all sorts of other useless and unwanted garbage.

‘I knew absolutely nothing about hatstand crazy disgraced former Prime Minister Liz Truss planning to stop free cancer treatment on the NHS to find the money she needed for her unfunded tax cuts… for I was only her Health Secretary’
All the Prime Ministers of the UK back to 1997 need to be put on trial and then dealt with.
Liz Truss is truly one callous piece of work. To even contemplate removing cancer treatments from the NHS just shows she is clinically insane. pic.twitter.com/ymAnhqlN1x
I am not usually a “hanger and flogger”, but it would please me to see Liz Truss’s carcass swinging and twisting in the wind.
Leaving the individual case behind, there is something very wrong with a system that elevates such unworthy individuals to the highest non-hereditary office. Not just Liz Truss (who only became an MP on her back in the first place). Look at Theresa May, who was an executive at the BACS cheque-clearing organization— hardly cutting-edge. That is before we even get onto the subject of “Boris”-idiot and others, including Starmer.
I’ll put my hands up and say Sunak & Truss for the Tories were diabolical but this tosser in 6 weeks has stolen their crown. We have seen some dangers and clueless PM. But don’t ever let a Labour voter take the piss out of you again. This guy is a complete disgrace. pic.twitter.com/Sxm17PRNz7
A suitable punishment for Liz Truss and others involved would be to lose their stolen money (e.g. via hyperinflation, or confiscation) and then to get cancer, the treatment for which they would be unable to receive without payment, which payment they would be unable to afford. That would be too just in this world, though, I suppose.
I continue to find this staggering. During the fall-out from Kwarteng's mini-budget, Truss wanted to meet the governor of the Bank of England but was advised against it by the cabinet secretary. She also reveals that she never met the governor in person. pic.twitter.com/gA97VVK2v4
She says that she did not meet the Governor of the Bank of England because she did not want to undermine the then Chancellor, Kwasi Kwarteng (aka “Woollyhead Trussbanger”).
Starmer and his cabal are rubbish, and tyrannical rubbish at that, but the only reason that they are sitting pretty with their huge Commons majority is because of the 14 years of equally rubbish “Conservative” misgovernment.
At the end, the voters were almost all desperate to bin the “Conservative” Party. Only 3 people out of every 20 eligible voters voted Con (3 out of every 12 that actually voted).
Both Starmer and ridiculous Ed Davey, the LibDem leader, benefited from the desperate wish of most voters to bin Sunak and his MPs. Starmer and Davey also benefited from the UK’s unjust and illogical FPTP voting system.

The USA is using Europe, particularly Poland, the pribaltika, and the UK as a first line of defence in any near-future and massive NATO-Russia conflict. European states should declare neutrality, and remove American bases and weapons.
An extreme example, of course, but even in the Second World War, the German High Command valued the average military units of the combatant nations as follows: every Waffen SS unit was worth 2 ordinary Wehrmacht units, 3 British or Russian units and 5 American ones.
Obviously, there are exceptions the other way. I recall meeting, many years ago, a few Americans from the more elite parts of the US Army and Navy, and they were very different.
The Kiev regime may become more powerful in terms of destructive rocket and drone activity, but the war will be won by the side with the greater number of soldiers, tanks, logistical capability, air power and, yes, rockets and drones.
That would be the Russian side.
The Kiev regime is having to press-gang recruits, and thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands are still trying to leave Ukraine and join the millions of others beyond the borders.
Both the USA and European states such as the UK are funneling money, arms and ammunition to Zelensky’s dictatorship, but with people willing and able to fight, that will not turn the tide of Russian advance. As to the money, well…

He might have added (if he knows) that, while well over 4M people voted Reform UK (more than voted for the LibDems, or the Greens), fewer than 7M voted Conservative, and fewer than 10M voted Labour.
Labour, for all its supposed “landslide”, got only two and a half times the number of votes of Reform UK; not even, in fact.
Out of every 20 eligible voters, only 4 voted Labour. Con 3. Reform UK 2. LibDem 2. Green 1. 8 did not bother to vote.
I know that I make the point almost daily, but people must understand that this Starmer-Labour government or “elected” dictatorship has no real legitimacy, no real mandate. The msm is presenting a false narrative about the General Election.

Fanatical Jew-Zionist barrister Simon Myerson claiming that the National Front “plotted to blow up Jews“. Untrue. Ahistorical nonsense. The National Front was a genuine and legitimate political party, albeit a fairly small or even fringe one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Front_(UK). Apparently, it still exists, at least in name.
In the 1970s, the National Front was the fourth-largest party in terms of both members and votes, certainly the latter.
As for Myerson, who operates out of Leeds and Manchester, he was recently removed as a Recorder (p/t judge) after having repeatedly abused people on Twitter/X etc, and after having failed to listen to initial “advice” (in effect, an admonishment or reprimand) from the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office.
It may well be that some particular individual NF supporter or member plotted as described by Myerson; have members of the System parties never committed any crimes?
I just spent 4 days in Hungary, a conservative country criticised by elites across the West. I saw no crime. No homeless people. No riots. No unrest. No drugs. No mass immigration. No broken borders. No self-loathing. No chaos. And now I've just landed back in the UK.
I was once in Hungary, for about a week, and 24 years ago (2001). I never went to Budapest, and travelled from the Romanian frontier to the Austrian frontier (which was then also the EU frontier), staying at Szeged (a pleasant town on the river Tisza) and then in a former Soviet-style “sanatorium” (hotel) by Lake Balaton, where my wife and I had a suite with its own external staircase to the lawned gardens which ran down to the lake, in which I was able to swim.
There was a small bust of Lenin in the bar (in the days of socialist rule, pre-1990, there may or may not have been a bar, but there was in 2001).
I liked what I saw of Hungary: civilized, and the people, the ones I met, reliable and decent.

Starmer and Yvette Cooper are tendentious anti-Brit people. They come out of a history of promoting mass immigration into the UK, and are really traitors to the future of the British people. Both members of Labour Friends of Israel.
GB News is routinely criticised when a conservative happens to interview another conservative.
This morning, ex-Labour MP Ed Balls interviewed Labour MP Yvette Cooper about the riots. They are married.
Yvette Cooper and Ed Balls, when both were MPs, were expenses cheats and freeloaders; criminals. Now she, a would-be dictator, and member of Labour Friends of Israel, is trying to shut down what free speech still exists. Evil.
Keir Starmer’s statement today reaffirms that Western governments are totally occupied and will always side with murderous, alien foreigners over their own native people.
They will use these riots to vilify the emerging anti-immigrant consensus and throw the book at everyone.
This is the modern-day equivalent of Norman Tebbit's "Cricket Test". If Britain really is the happy, integrated multicultural country that Labour and liberals tell us it is, then why are mobs of Muslims chanting Allahu Akbar rather than waving the Union Jack?
There are those on “both sides” trying to frame these fights and protests as revolving solely around white people opposed to Islamism and/or Pakistani Muslims.
The rioting Gypsies of Harehills (Leeds) are not Muslim; neither is the alleged Southport killer. All, however, are non-white, non-European, non-British in any real sense.

If that is accurate, and is what Putin has said, it may mean that he has come to certain conclusions about a possible, and possibly inevitable, “solution”.
Not only is there “two-tier policing” in the UK, but there is also two-tier reporting.
I watched a few minutes of a BBC report from a protest in the North of England yesterday evening. The geeky reporter said that he had just been talking to a leader of the “counter-protest” (unnamed, and not described, other than as said; may have been non-white, Jewish, or an English anarchist or Communist, we do not know), who had given his view. Needless to say, the unverified, anonymously-provided information provided by the said “leader of the counter-protest” was neither challenged by the BBC reporter nor balanced by any view from the English protesters. Typical.
Suddenly, we hear the mouthpieces of “the usual suspects” (e.g. Priti Patel, John Woodcock/”Lord Walney” etc) demanding the recall of Parliament.
Is this Starmer-Labour’s “Reichstag Fire” moment, when very repressive laws and/or “temporary” “measures” will be enacted by Starmer at the behest of (((those behind Starmer))), thus enabling a real police state (modelled on, inter alia, the “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic regulations) to come into being?

Fanatical loonie Jew-Zionist Lee Kern describes England, or Britain, or the UK, as a “shithole”. He was, I think, born here, brought up here, and worked here, but has as little real connection with our country as some untermensch straight off a rubber boat on the beaches of Kent.
I saw the same phenomenon, though couched rather more politely (surprisingly) when the egregious lawyer, Mark Lewis, abandoned the UK for Israel (he is still returning from time to time to make money, though); that was in 2018, after he was found guilty in the Solicitors’ Disciplinary Tribunal.
As for “sense of purpose” in Israel, its only sense of purpose has to do with its losing struggle to survive. I do not know how long the Israeli state can survive, but former heads of MOSSAD and Shin Beth seem pessimistic about it. Arab populations increasing, Israeli population static; nuclear weapons being developed in Iran; conventional heavy weapons being developed in states around Israel.
Wait till Iran kicks off he then will be running on holiday all the time. He won't know what to do….its all going to kick off…..everywhere..concerning times…..

I have, for a number of months, if not longer, raised concerns about Starmer, who always reminds me of Khrushchev’s view of Malenkov, i.e. that Malenkov was a “file-clerk type; such people should never be given power, and are dangerous” [see https://www.amazon.co.uk/Khrushchev-Remembers-Nikita-Sergeevich/dp/0316831409].
Look at Starmer. His first crisis as Prime Minister, and what does he do? He retreats to his “legal people” comfort zone. He does not even attempt to unite a country being pulled in different directions by centrifugal forces, as a real leader would.
Starmer threatens new repressive powers, “night courts”, no bail for accused persons (which is beyond his lawful power anyway), prison sentences (ditto). He supports, basically, one side, or rather is against one side, the British side, if you like.
Starmer’s attempt to create fear, eg among those on social media, has had some effect, not on the “bottle-throwers” but on entirely decent English people, many of at least middle-age, who have deleted tweets (often saying simply that they have been labelled “thugs” by Starmer).
Meanwhile, the brainless police have been shown on Twitter/X “bravely” kicking in the door of a lone woman who attended a protest. What else, if anything, did she do? If the police behave like a poundland KGB or Stasi, then public respect for them will (further) plummet.
Well, here we are, one month and one day into the Starmer-Labour “elected” dictatorship.
Oh, and another few hundred, or thousand, migrant-invaders will have crossed the Channel today, ferried in by Border Force and the RNLI (and another thousand —or possibly three thousand— “legal migrants” will have entered the UK via ferries and airliners).

I think that the time has come, inter alia, for me to share with my dear readers an event that happened at least a month ago. About 5 or 6 weeks ago.
Mid-evening after a warm day. I think a Saturday. Not sure. About 2030. Knock at door. Uniformed policeman there. Had never seen him previously. “Hello, what’s the problem?“; to which he answers “why would there be a problem?“, at which I have to politely explain that my wife and I do not have the police at our door every day…
It turns out that I am being questioned (and filmed on bodycam) for tweets made on Twitter/X. I am told right from the start that “there is no need to worry“, because the matter had “already been NFA’d“, meaning “No Further Action”.
I was too surprised by being buttonholed to ask why, in that case, a policeman had once again come to my door (not that exact policeman, but in the past decade, several real police and/or joke “PCSO” fake police).
The policeman showed me a kind of photostat or copy of what might have been a tweet, but he objected when I tried to take or (as my wife says I always do) snatch the paper to look at it properly (once a barrister, always a barrister…).
The heading seemed to be something like “Ian#IStandWithCorbyn“
Anyway…I told the police that I had actually not had a Twitter/X account, nor tweeted anything at all, for about six years, since 2018, when a pack of Jews (I diplomatically put it as “a Jewish organization“) had complained about me to —pre-Elon Musk— Twitter, as a result of which Twitter had shut down my account permanently (and that I had never bothered to reinstate the account).
After that, the policeman, absurdly, would not let me examine the tweet or tweets, on the basis that the material would be confidential if not mine (why, if the tweet was public anyway?). The police today need a Franz Kafka to chronicle their absurd rules and protocols.
Anyway, after that, and a joke or two (from me), the policeman thanked me and departed stage left (not pursued by a bear, sadly).
So the police can send someone over a claimed tweet allegedly by me, which tweet had already been marked as “NFA” but, when a wheel was stolen from my car about 18 months ago, they did absolutely nothing. Useless.
I was too surprised to ask why they thought that the “Ian” of the tweet (if he even exists) was thought to have been me. Do the police think that no-one else in the UK is called Ian? God knows.
No wonder crime is flourishing, when the police seem to be uninterested in, and indeed incapable of doing, their proper job, yet take seriously malicious complaints from (((the usual suspects))) about supposed comments on Twitter/X, Facebook etc.
Who would best chronicle the way Britain now is— Franz Kafka, or Lewis Carroll?

Plymouth could be a great city, but isn’t. Badly-run for decades, basically.
As to the protests generally, BBC News dragged out Brendan Cox, the sex-pest of years ago, whose MP wife was assassinated. Cox was at one time getting hundreds of thousands a year from charities for his salaried work. One of the “favoured” of the present System set-up and its msm. One of the Prominente favoured by the multikulti msm, if you like.
Why does that person have any locus standi at all to discuss, or lay down, what does or does not constitute “legitimate” free speech?

Quite. Just like would-be tyrant-woman Yvette Cooper, who even had the gall to say that British families should allow migrant-invaders to stay in their homes. Needless to say, she and her equally-expenses-cheating husband, Ed Balls (who together own several houses and flats) are not accommodating any migrant-invaders.
BBC website is still banging on about 'far right thuggery' in Plymouth, where there's about 4 people and a dog just standing about. Nothing about this at all. I agree with you, it's time someone does the right thing and speaks up.
Fear? Think how many Muslims there now are in the UK (England especially). Nearly 4 million. Most are quiescent most of the time but, if inflamed by their own leaders, and/or by pro-active policing, and if organized (even locally) they could easily take down both the police and the now-very-depleted Army. Think about it.
English people are generally not organized when it comes to political protesting. Usually easily-controlled by the authorities.
Stop saying "far right thugs" Say violent offenders on ALL sides Stop talking only about mosques Say you support ALL communities Stop dwelling on "misinformation" Say immigration concern is REAL Stop talking about making ppl safe Say you'll actually control borders Stop denying…
In a sense, the migration-invasion of the UK (and Europe generally) is the tsunami overshadowing the smaller events under it (such as the present urban upheavals in England).
The new and rubbish “Labour”-label Government talks a hard game, but behind that, the migration-invasion continues unchecked, unabated. Sooner or later, this society will break, whatever political pygmies of the Yvette Cooper and Starmer type may say (or do).
Reminds me of the last days of the German Reich, with Hitler and the generals of the OKW (Oberkommando der Wehrmacht—German High Command) moving wooden plaques, representing SS-Panzer and other forces, mostly by then non-existent, across huge maps, while, not so far away, the enormous Soviet armies advance relentlessly, ever closer to Berlin.

Many leftists on social media are celebrating that someone hurled a drink in the face of @Nigel_Farage today as he was campaigning in Clacton, Essex. They’re reveling in the fear that a victim feels when being hit in the eyes with an unknown liquid—in a country that suffers acid attacks. The celebrations are emblematic of a level of political violence that the left tolerates and desires on their political opponents.“
Perpetrators of violent attacks, such as that in Clacton yesterday, must be punished properly. I doubt whether the present minor judiciary has the will to do that.

By my use of Electoral Calculus [https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html], a similar result: Labour 488 MPs (majority 326), Con 82, LibDems 43, Greens 1, Reform UK 0, Plaid 3, SNP 14 (and Northern Irish 18).
Almost but not quite a Con wipeout.
I myself still think that <50 is a possibility for the Cons. I concede that the many experts and specialists are against me, but my reasons are as previously blogged:
the fact that few 2019 and earlier Con voters now think of the Con Party and Government as anything other than completely useless;
that there are many (or are there?) “secret” Reform UK intending or possible voters; and
that there are many voters who will vote tactically to sink the Cons, even if many of the same voters hate, despise or fear Starmer-Labour.
A point or so fewer for the Cons, a point extra for Labour, a point extra for the LibDems, and a point or so more for Reform UK, and the Con cadre of MPs would reduce to only 30.

“This is a guest post from an anonymous 25-year-old member of Gen-Z. They live in London. They work in Westminster. And they are utterly fed-up with the dire state of the country.
If you believe the polls then the Tory party is about to be completely rejected by my generation, Gen-Z, the members of which were born in the late 1990s and early 2000s.
Remarkably, just 5% of us are planning to vote Tory next month while a staggering 83% are planning to either vote Labour, Lib Dem, Green, or SNP.
But as one of those few right-leaning Zoomers, let me tell you —even that 5% figure is deeply misleading. Why?
Because, as Matt pointed out on Twitter/X, one enormous problem facing the Tories today is not just the remarkably low number of Zoomers who are planning to vote Conservative; it’s that the few Zoomer conservatives who do exist are also utterly fed-up and frustrated with the party and want to see it completely obliterated.
And why do they feel like this, exactly?
Well, consider my own story.
I’m writing this at 3am in the morning and I have less than four hours before I need to get up and start my morning routine for work.
But, once again, the neighbours who live downstairs, below my flat, have decided to have another all-night party. And unlike me, they don’t have to wake up for work.
Because, unlike me, they don’t have to work.
They qualify for social housing; their rent is subsidised by the large and rising amount of council tax I am forced to pay each month —on top of ruinous income taxes, national insurance contributions and student loan repayments.
The majority of the tenants in my housing block are unemployed; I see few of them leaving the house for work in the morning.
My interactions with them are limited to hostile glaring mixed in with the occasional attempted mugging. On the rare occasion I have female company I have to escort my dates to and from the bus stop to stop them being sexually harassed.
What scraps of my salary the State allows me to keep are eaten up immediately by rent. I pay almost half my post-tax income to live on an ex-council estate in Zone 3, London, with the smell of weed continually hanging in the air.
Unless I achieve an income of more than £200,000 it will simply be impossible to secure a mortgage on a house the same size as the one my parents bought in 1989.
My friends work in high-powered finance and legal careers but, like me, struggle on with flatshares well into their late 20s, if not their early 30s.
They are spending the best decade of their life working until midnight seven days a week for the chance to attain the same middle-class lifestyle their parents achieved much earlier in life.
The reward for being wildly successful financially in 2024? To live in a semi-detached house that was built for unskilled professionals in inner London a century ago.
And that’s not all …
If I decide to have children, which you might think ought to be encouraged given the demographic crisis facing Western nations like Britain, I will have to contend with extortionate childcare costs, or deprive my household of a second income.
Renting a three-bedroom flat in a safe part of London will cost in excess of £3,000 a month; my children will have to grow up in far more cramped conditions than I did, most likely having to share a room and perhaps dodging stray bullets.
The only feasible route out of this incredibly depressing situation is to leave the city I grew up in and commute two hours both ways from a town I have no local connection to —where I have no friends or family living nearby.
Even with cheaper housing, I will still have to send my kids to local schools where they will be bombarded with relentless propaganda about how to ‘change their gender’, acknowledge their ‘whiteness’, and apologise for the British Empire.
It is certainly true that previous generations of young people faced more challenging circumstances. I am not (yet) being asked to walk across No Mans Land and into a sea of barbed wire and machine guns.
But it is one thing being asked to suffer for a cause like liberty in Europe, or to grimace through destitution because of seemingly uncontrollable events like the Wall Street Crash. It is quite another to be economically enslaved to the point of infertility to sustain a growing population of resentful dependents.
And I am one of the lucky ones...”
[from the Matt Goodwin blog on Substack].
A long piece to paste on the blog, but worth reading, I think, despite the several obvious gaps in the author’s reasoning.

I had a month’s ban for actually having the audacity to criticise a certain religion that, if I mention will probably lead to another ban. So much for free speech.
It's basically a religion for these people mixed with elite status signalling. I don't think they're even reading the evidence, or pondering for example why even Canada has realised the population trap is a disaster. And I'm not entirely sure why they're not in the Lib Dems.
Barwell seems to imagine that, as the (white/Brit) workforce ages, it can simply be replaced by black, brown (etc) imported equivalents. Not so. A high proportion of the imports (and offspring thereof) are parasitic and/or useless, with a smaller proportion actively criminal or terroristic.
Barwell’s thesis (to thus dignify it) seems to be that, as —say— 1M Brits age, retire, or die, the thing to do is to import 10M unwanted non-European immigrants in the hope that 10% of them can replace the 1M Brits who have checked out of the labour market (or life). What about the notional 9M other imports? They may be (and most are) useless, or near-useless, but all need/want/demand housing, food, water, shelter, NHS services, money…

People living their best life, walking freely, carelessly and not worried about looking over their back constantly in fear that an illegal might pop out from somewhere and attack them. In short, NO multiculturalism. The experiment failed, it doesn’t work. Everyone go back home.
Not sure whether that is Krakow or the rebuilt (post-WW2) old central part of Warsaw. Maybe the latter. I saw both on several trips to Poland in 1988 and 1989, but I should probably not recognize much of the newer areas now, judging by photos I have seen. The changes, esp. in Warsaw, have been immense.
I know it sounds terrible, but can we just please stop sending fucking rescue boats out. Navy patrols (use national service people?) to collect people and send them back to france. Either that or single fema style processing camp until decision made on acceptability… End of.

The 2024 General Election result, using Electoral Calculus, and based on the latest YouGov polling: Cons with only 55 MPs; LibDems on 63, and they are the official Opposition; Reform UK, significantly, with 3 MPs (presumably including Farage), and Greens on 2. Also important, the SNP with only 14 MPs.

I have covered on the blog, in past years, various aspects of the fraudulent “grifting” of “Jack Monroe”, but even today there are, it seems, utter mugs around who not only believe her nonsense but also send money to her.
I have also covered, to a lesser extent, other similar frauds: Simon Harris, aka “Man Behaving Dadly” (Essex Jew who blagged £600,000 from Essex County Council, as well as large amounts from individual mugs online); “Supertanskiii” (whose modus operandi is to post tweets etc shouting angrily and often vulgarly at “the Tories”, while asking mugs to send her money; what will she do when her beloved fake “Labour” turns out to be as bad, or worse?); Julia Grace Patterson (her u.s.p. is that she was briefly a medical doctor in the NHS —for about 2 years—); Mike Stuchbery (see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/10/23/a-few-words-about-mike-stuchbery/) etc.
Then of course, there is the “Captain Tom” fraud/embezzlement/”grift”, carried out by the daughter and son-in-law of the ancient ex-officer who raised millions (supposedly for the NHS) by that now-famous yet brainless stunt of traversing his garden lawn on a Zimmer frame thousands of times a few years ago. “Captain Tom” himself was no doubt sincere; his daughter is just a freeloading fraud.
As the BBC might say “other fraudulent grifters are available“…
She’s a grifter, no doubting it. But she’s been scapegoated, a distraction for what was a ridiculous few months of Captain Tom Moore bullshit. Captain Tom was also in cahoots with the Gov, acting as a media distraction for the lockdown casualties and failing system. Wake up 🫵 pic.twitter.com/oPJh2mbiWi
It's a big day for grifters. Here is Jack Monroe stating that she's not a millionaire despite the fact that we all know she's taken hundreds of thousands of ££ for taking donations for a lawsuit she never had any intention of going through with. Oh and stop your patreon Jack! pic.twitter.com/dO9akmLDhf
…and still sob-storying about “her boy“, who must be 20 years old now, and who (it is said) was mostly taken care of by others, not by drink/drug wreck “Jack Monroe”.

I still fail to see how “Jack Monroe” asking for money to sue Lee Anderson and Martin Daubney (and then spending the money on her own pleasures and whims) is any different to what Xahra Saleem did.

Farage in fiery clash with BBC's Mishal Husain over 'silly' migration question https://t.co/FhcpPJ5Hhb
— AstroPeanut 🇬🇧🏴🏴🇬🇬 (@peanut_astro) June 4, 2024
The BBC must be defunded.
Not that I have much time for Farage, for several reasons. For one thing, “net zero” migration would still, if implemented, mean about 200,000 non-whites entering the UK and staying indefinitely, because about that many persons (mostly whites people, i.e. real British people) leave every year to try to find a decent life is Australasia or North America etc.
Well, of course, Sunak has all the charisma or “in-touch-ness” of a limp lettuce, something that Sunak has in common with ludicrously over-promoted and now washed-up 49-day-PM Liz Truss.
That reminds me: I have heard and seen nothing, for weeks if not months, about or from Woollyhead Trussbanger (Kwasi Kwarteng), who lasted only 38 days as Chancellor, yet received a payoff for those 38 days of nearly £17,000 (in addition to salary etc): see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kwasi_Kwarteng#Dismissal.
Controlled opposition. The Conservative Party is generally pro the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby, and Israel itself. So is Farage. So is Goodwin. Get the picture?
Only a social-national party or movement can save the future of this country, but such a party or movement does not exist. The nearest is Patriotic Alternative, I suppose.
According to our recent YouGov survey, a shocking 10% of the British public are unaware that #MotorInsurance is compulsory for any vehicle used on a public road.
Labour aren't popular, they're a lot less unpopular. I don't envy Starmer the 'honeymoon' period with Murdoch, but then I don't envy anyone's honeymoon with Murdoch.
I too, like tweeter “@JoeeggJoe”, think that the Cons have the potential to fall further. Now that Farage is Reform UK leader, Reform may increase its support, not so much because Farage is wildly popular but simply because Reform now as a very identifiable leader, which was not the case with Tice.
I also tend to think that there is a bloc of “secret Reform UK” voters, unwilling to admit to it publicly or to poll canvassers, but who, on 4 July (or before that, in postal voting), will put their X by Reform UK candidates, either because they support Reform UK anyway, or because they see it as the best way, where they live, of kicking the Conservative Party).

The clowns at Westminster are far more amusing (usually, though, unintentionally) than the huge number of officially-approved and unfunny “comedians” we see in the msm.
The new mayor of Derry who wasn’t elected but selected by the SDLP gives her first interview and it’s a load of woke rubbish.
Good grief! Ecce the new Mayor of “Derry” (“Londonderry”, as was). So much for Irish nationalism! The SDLP, and Sinn Fein, are as fake as the SNP and Plaid Cymru. Is this what the IRA and others struggled for, all those years, all those decades, indeed all those centuries?!
More music
I like The Shadows for several reasons. Firstly, their music reminds me of my fairly early years of childhood, I having been born in 1956 (and so was about 6-7 in 1963). Secondly, their originality and quality. Thirdly, their music evokes a sense of the optimism of England in the years of the early/mid 1960s. Fourthly, they are or were unmistakably English, for all their enthusiasm for Americana (eg their piece, F.B.I.) in those Atlanticist years.
I remember seeing their name on the outside of the Kursaal in Ostend (Belgium) in the summer of maybe 1963, maybe 1965, along with that of Cliff Richard, when they were his backing group.
The smug look on the little bitch’s face says it all. Entitled. Probably pig-ignorant. Probably either a student or a trustafarian, or maybe unemployed. My money would be on her being a student of some kind, probably from an affluent family.
Almost certainly pro-mass migration and the invasion of the UK.
Regular readers will be aware that I am no fan of Farage’s “controlled opposition” “conservative nationalism” but this must be punished. I doubt that that will happen.
I wrote a piece about this type of sub-terrorism some years ago, when Farage was again the victim of an idiot milkshake-thrower, and the terminally unfunny supposed “comedienne”, Jo Brand, “joked” that it should have been battery acid.
Will the police track down and arrest the woman who today attacked Farage? I wonder…
Obviously, today’s attack was very predictable, and Farage does not seem to have effective personal protection.
I wonder whether Farage will get more votes because of what happened today. Maybe. Certainly, I have scoured the Press looking for any mention of his Conservative Party opponent, one Giles Watling, but without result. Watling is invisible in Clacton. Farage is the only game in town, both for those who like his candidature and those who hate it (and him).
Farage is probably a good deal more sanguine about the attack today than I should be in his position. I am restricted in what I can express, by reason of my free speech trial last year, which has had at least a marginally chilling effect on my freedom of expression, but I think that my regular readers will be able to read between the lines.
The perpetrator should be identified and arrested, though. At least that.
Counterproductive, just more publicity now sympathy for Farage, and no doubt more votes. This woman has unintentionally given Farge a boost.
“I don’t want to see the residents of Clacton-on-Sea taken for granted and sacrificed on the altar of his vanity.”
Mr Watling said he felt it was his job to “transform Clacton’s future” by using government funding he had secured.”
[BBC]
Watling himself seems rather remote from the majority of Clacton residents and voters. I notice that, in the photo on the BBC website, he is wearing a Garrick Club tie:
“As part of a privately funded experiment in Universal Basic Income in 2019, the Stockton Economic Empowerment Demonstration (S.E.E.D.) conducted a pilot project that gave a $500 stipend to 125 randomly selected residents for an 24-month period with “no strings attached.“[51] “
[Wikipedia]
“SEED was a Randomized Control Trial that distributed $500 a month for 24 months to 125 recipients. The cash was unconditional, with no strings attached and no work requirements, and recipients were selected randomly from neighborhoods at or below Stockton’s median household income.
Results gathered from the first year, which spanned February of 2019 to February of 2020, found recipients obtained full-time employment at more than twice the rate of non-recipients. Recipients were less anxious and depressed, both over time and compared to the control group. They also saw statistically significant improvements in emotional health, fatigue levels and overall well being. Recipients had a greater ability to pay for unexpected expenses.
People spent the SEED money on basic needs, including food (nearly 37%), sales/merchandise (22%, on home goods, clothes/shoes and discount/dollar stores), utilities (11%) and auto costs (10%). Less than 1% was spent on alcohol and/or tobacco.”
In my view, Basic Income must be the way to go, with AI and robotics impacting employment and set to do so more. The alternative to Basic Income is to have a tiny sliver of the population ultra-wealthy, a wider layer wealthy, and about 80% of the population near-destitute.

So far today, by my count, Myerson has tweeted and retweeted about 28 times. On a Tuesday, and mostly this afternoon. Relatively modest by his standards.

I am that age, consume almost no mainstream media and have no interest in supporting foreign wars. Learned my shameful lesson with Iraq. I try to encourage everyone to use X. Even MY mother (in her eighties) gave up on Fox over its coverage.
There is a definite gulf between the older and younger generations (without defining the exact age boundaries too precisely). The older someone is, the more likely that that person will both watch and trust the TV news (in the UK, BBC, ITV, Sky, in that order), and will also take seriously the print newspapers, either in their original form or in their online offshoots.
I doubt whether anyone under 30, perhaps anyone under 40, actually buys print newspapers any more. I am 67, and have not bought a real newspaper for at least 20 years. Looking in the local Waitrose, I notice that the only people buying newspapers are those in their eighties, at a guess.
There's no money to invest. The US Govt is broke. No surplus in decades. $34 trillion in debt. $214 trillion in unfunded liabilities (without surplus that's debt). You run a bankrupt nation surviving with money printing. For that reason the world stops trading in USD. It's over.
“Almost unnoticed amid the drama and crisis that hit Latin America every week, in the last days of February the Cuban government asked the United Nations for aid to address a growing food shortage.
The unprecedented cry for help from a communist regime that has always prided itself on its social welfare model captures Cuba’s dire economic straits. Hurt by tightened US restrictions, decaying domestic production, a weak post-Covid tourism industry and indifference from its allies, the island is living through its worst economic days since the collapse of the Soviet Union more than three decades ago. A string of blackouts brought people into the streets last weekend, shouting for “food and power” — a rare display of social unrest since the turmoil that shook the island in July 2021, which the regime contained with crushing force.
Once you get past the finger-pointing, what we’re witnessing is the collapse of Cuba’s socialist regime. This transition could take decades. Or it could happen in much the same way as that great Cuba aficionado Ernest Hemingway once wrote of bankruptcy: “Gradually, then suddenly.”
[Bloomberg]
While I would not regard myself as “expert” on Cuba, I think that I probably know a bit more than the Average Joe. I once passed an exam in Cuban History 1940-1970, and have read the main histories, albeit long long ago (early 1980s).
