A few thoughts out of season

I understand that the little twerp currently posing as Prime Minister took part in the TV show Gogglebox recently. I have never seen the show, but I believe that it consists of people sitting on a sofa and commenting on other TV shows. If so, pretty pathetic even without the Prime Minister being there.

Once again I was reminded of the pathetically low standards of those presently allowed (and I do use the word advisedly) to become MPs, ministers, prime ministers.

I also saw a clip of an interview given by Angela Rayner a few days ago. Again, absolutely pathetic. No point in reiterating my views about her. Regular readers of the blog will know my opinion. Suffice to say that I do not think some uneducated, uncultured, “chavscum” woman, utterly dishonest, and complete with tattoos, “vapes”, and a liking for booze and vulgar noisy “clubs” on Ibiza (at the age of 46, at that) should be anywhere near political or social power.

Those now “at the top” of the political totem-pole are almost ludicrously poor-quality. A few examples? Lammy. Burnham (obviously). Angela Rayner (ditto). Shabana Mahmood. Kemi Badenoch. Many others.

A different subject. Oxford Street.

I used to live in and around London (various times during the overall 1976-2002 period, and in a number of places, but most often in the Little Venice neighbourhood). Occasionally, I would go to shops in Oxford Street, mainly to Selfridges, which then sold Russian beer, Zhiguli (now all but unobtainable in the UK), and other items of interest.

I see now that the main part of Oxford Street, between Marble Arch and Oxford Circus, has been pedestrianized. Big mistake, in my view. Now, if anyone wants to get to a shop or store in Oxford Street without a walk, he or she will apparently have to get a taxi or bus to the streets round the back of the shops, somehow. Most people will not bother.

I saw a few minutes of an interview with that unpleasant little Pakistani, Sadiq Khan, in which he said that the decline of Oxford Street will be reversed by reason of the pedestrianization. Ha. I doubt it, and such pedestrian streets usually end up as the haunt of petty criminal elements, street buskers and jugglers, and beggars.

That Sadiq Khan individual is plainly, like so many political nonentities in the UK, living in a bubble of self-delusion.

Final stray thought: the less I hear, or see, of that ridiculous princeling, Harry Windsor, and (a fortiori) Meghan Mulatta, the more content I shall be.

Historical piece about Mount Athos

[“During the Axis occupation of Greece in World War II, Mount Athos—the autonomous monastic republic—occupied a uniquely remarkable diplomatic position after its Holy Community (Iera Koinotis), fearing plunder or annexation by Bulgarian forces, sent a formal petition directly to Adolf Hitler in April 1941 asking for his intervention.

Hitler accepted the appeal and declared the holy mountain under his personal protection (Sondergebiet), assigning a minimal German garrison while tasking Ahnenerbe scholars like Franz Dölger with surveying and photographing the priceless Byzantine manuscripts and treasures rather than looting them.

Seeking to maintain local stability, prevent the peninsula from becoming a base for Greek resistance or Allied intelligence, and respect the ancient monastic Avaton (prohibition of women), German authorities strictly regulated military conduct on the peninsula, enabling the visiting Wehrmacht soldiers and the centuries-old monastic state to coexist in relative quiet until the German retreat in late 1944, leaving Mount Athos’s sacred architecture and millennia of historical archives virtually intact.“]

Several times, over many years, I have handed in (to the police, or to the owners directly) money and other property found lying on the ground. Smaller amounts than in the above example, and always with some kind of ID with it. I would not take on the karmic burden of appropriating it. Admittedly, if it were a suitcase containing a million pounds, I might take a different view…

Another interesting “Matt and Julia” vlog about “the real Iran” (and a few memories of my own)

Persian food can be very nice indeed. I often recall the food prepared by a Persian lady in London, cooked as a kindness for a friend of mine (and hers), an aristocratic lady from East Prussia displaced by both the Second World War and the decolonizing nonsense in the East Africa of the 1950s.

That Persian food was sent across the road, via one of the Persian lady’s adult sons, packed in takeaway-type foil containers. Fantastic stuff.

As to those Persians, they had a lucky escape. The father of the family had been an MP in Iran, was I think strongly connected to the Shah, and had been hanged after the Shah had been deposed. The family lost pretty much everything in Iran, but the lady herself was allowed to leave thanks to some kind of family influence. Fortunately, her two sons were both students at Imperial College in London. A flat in Little Venice had been bought as somewhere for them to live while studying. That became the home for the three of them and their little cat.

Of course, a mansion flat in Little Venice is hardly poverty (the pop group, Bros, were their nearest neighbours), but back in Iran they had had rural estates (near Shiraz, I think) and numbers of servants.

Nice people. They thought that my German friend, by then in her 60s, ate too little, and should be encouraged to eat. They were right: my old friend could not cook, and tended to subsist on bread (she liked, ironically, a Jewish bread with caraway seeds, bought locally), eaten with butter and a lot of salt, and washed down with lemon tea or sparkling water.

I still remember how nice the Persian food, cooked by that Persian lady, was. My friend used to share it with me, if I were around when it was delivered.

Small world: I was dining at the Persians’ one evening, for the first and last time in fact, in company with both my
German friend and her young (20-something) step-grand-daughter, when the subject of the contemporaneous Darius Guppy trial came up [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darius_Guppy]. The Persian family had known Guppy as a small boy, Guppy being half-Persian; the Persian lady referred to him as having been “a nice boy”.

Many years later, about 24 years in fact, in 2017, I gave a half-hour political-legal talk at the then-popular London Forum. Afterwards, who should come to to me and introduce himself but Darius Guppy. A personable fellow, who had the interesting knack of being able to appear as if from nowhere, then later disappear the same way…

I did not of course refer to his 1993 trial and imprisonment, but I did tell him about the Persians with whom I had been acquainted and who knew Guppy through having known his mother, a folk singer who was involved with a film that won an Oscar; I once owned one of her albums. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shusha_Guppy.

I mentioned to Guppy that, as an Amazon Top 50 reviewer, I had once reviewed his interesting memoirs, Roll the Dice, on Amazon (that being before the Jew-Zionist lobby had my very popular reviews expunged).

Guppy is or was a great friend of “Boris-idiot” (Boris Johnson), via their Eton and Oxford days.

As said, small world.

On “British” TV etc, you only see the Ukrainian conflict from the Kiev-regime side.

[“MBS IS FINISHED: THE HOUSE OF SAUD FACES TOTAL COLLAPSE Scott Ritter, former UN weapons inspector and Marine intelligence officer, warns that Mohammed bin Salman has entered a death spiral with no way out. A war launched in 2014 for quick military glory has become a 12-year nightmare that is now physically dismantling Saudi oil production. The American umbrella has failed, allies will not ride to the rescue, and the kingdom is losing decisively. The only remaining question is how fast the collapse arrives.

THE CORE VERDICT

Ritter states the demise of Muhammad bin Salman is inevitable.

“He’s finished.”

If lucky he catches the last gold-plated 747 out of Riyadh to a London hideaway or the United States.

If not, his head is removed by sword amid shouts of Allahu Akbar.

“It’s the end of the House of Saud.”

THE 2014 STRATEGIC ERROR

MBS tried to earn his military spurs with a fast victory over Ansar Allah.

The campaign turned into a 12-year nightmare.

His later decision to expand the war by striking Sanaa airfield only accelerated the destruction.

There is no political off-ramp left and no salvation coming.

THE OIL DESTRUCTION

Ansar Allah is no longer limited to blocking Bab el-Mandeb or hitting pipelines and storage.

They are now attacking production facilities and the wells themselves.

“This is the end of Saudi Arabia.”

Without oil the entire Vision 2030 fantasy collapses into what Ritter calls a Bedouin-infested sand pit with nothing left.

NO ALLIES WILL SAVE HIM

The American security umbrella proved nonfunctional.

Saudi forces are ineffective, overweight, proxy-driven and overmatched.

Pakistan faces massive Imran Khan protests and will not send tens of thousands of troops into a losing desert war.

Turkey has no interest in dying for the Saudis.

The Mecca Pact is a joke of maps and chalkboards with no real troop movement.

THE RIYADH PREDICTION

If MBS is removed and internal fighting follows, Ritter says Ansar Allah columns could drive through the streets of Riyadh.

Saudis have feared this outcome since 1990.

“Saudi Arabia is losing this war decisively. And there’s nothing that can be done to save them.”

The world will experience the same shock that hit when the Shah of Iran fell in 1979.

THE BOTTOM LINE

Scott Ritter sees MBS as toast and the House of Saud heading toward the same abrupt end that surprised everyone in 1979. Energy production is being dismantled, no outside force will intervene, and the collapse is already underway. History is about to deliver a shock that almost no one in the West has priced in.”]

Refers to Burnham’s stupid comment to the effect that Russia somehow procured the 2016 Brexit Referendum vote. Now Burnham admits that he has no evidence whatsoever to back that. He is pathetic.

[“Historic Milestone in Florida as Over 80 Orthodox Jewish Families Move Into New $100 Million-Plus Community and Schools Open

More than 80 families from New York have moved into Lakefront Estates, where schools have now opened. Dozens more families are expected in the coming weeks, following reported investment of hundreds of millions of dollars in the project.

Located in Glades County near Lake Okeechobee, Lakefront is a purpose-built residential community. The broader development plan calls for up to 1,000 single-family homes and 300 rental units.

The vision goes beyond housing: plans include synagogues, mikvahs, boys’ and girls’ schools, a yeshiva, a kollel, kosher shopping and medical services. Developers are targeting families seeking more space and an alternative to soaring housing costs in established Orthodox neighborhoods.

Hatzalah South Florida has also begun organizing a local branch, meeting with prospective responders who will serve Lakefront. With families arriving and classrooms opening, the focus now shifts from construction to building the services a growing community needs.“]

It has been suggested that there may now be some variety of superinjunction in place, an injunction which prevents being published even the fact of its existence. I wonder. The msm deletions would seem to support that theory, but how can such an injunction cover even the fact that a woman has not only been charged but has been committed for trial?

Apart from that, I have nothing further to say at this time about Lola Salem and the horrible little degenerate, Gove, having said it all in the past few days on the blog, and previously.

Relations between Russia and Japan continue to deteriorate.

If the next general election does not move things in at least a generally social-national way, the British people will be fully justified in taking whatever action is required to save this country.

Holborn and St. Pancras by-election

A lot of chatter about this on Twitter/X and in the mainstream media. In fact, Labour were always likely to win it. Labour has held the seat since its creation in 1983, and the Labour vote has never dropped below 43.2% (in 2005); the peak was 70.1% in 2017, when Starmer was the candidate but (ironically) Corbyn was Labour leader. Starmer’s vote in 2024 was 48.9%. Yesterday’s Labour vote was 45.2%.

The nearest any challenging party has come to beating Labour there, until yesterday, was in the 1987 General Election, when the Conservative Party managed 31.1%.

On that basis, the Green Party 32.8% yesterday was a fairly good result, in fact, particularly in view of the fact that they only scored 10.4% in 2024.

The British nationalist parties never stood a chance. The non-white electorate in the constituency is about half of the total, and the official “white British” electorate no more than a third.

To stand in a by-election where you know that you are going to get less than 10% (or 5%) of the vote is utterly stupid, and gives the impression that you are a fringe or crank party.

Had I been the leader of any of those (conservative) “nationalist” parties, I should have boycotted the by-election and made known the reason why. In fact, that by-election is a laboratory test-tube showing why, as time goes by, there can be no serious electoral road for the (real) British people. The importation of tens of millions of non-whites has, in effect, killed not only free speech but also any (worthwhile) democracy in this country.

The main conservative-national parties standing scored only 5.9% (Reform) and 2.5% (Restore). The reason, I think, is that most of the white/English/British voted with their feet and boycotted this farce and circus of a by-election. Turnout was a fairly pitiful 38.8%, not that much more than a third of voters bothering to vote.

The Conservative Party vote was poor, about the same as in 2024 (around 7%). As recently as 2019, and previously, the Conservative vote was always in double figures in that constituency, and has been almost 30% further back in time.

Well, there it is. “Democracy” has spoken (we are told). The inhabitants of Holborn and St. Pancras now have an MP who is an ignorant Somali woman of some kind.

Cruel and unusual punishments

The Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which Amendment was adopted in 1791, forbids “cruel and unusual punishments“. Like much of their Constitution, in practice it is a bad joke. Death by every slow and/or painful method: slow gassing, the electric chair (which can take 6 minutes of being, in effect, fried alive), and now the medicalization of capital punishment via the use of a series or cocktail of drugs, which sounds painless but is anything but. The latest ghastly farce in the USA just proves the point yet again.

I do not know why, if the Americans insist on retaining the death penalty, they do not simply give the convict a massive dose of morphine. I am not a medical man, but surely that would do the job quickly and painlessly? Maybe the American public, or many of them, would find that too painless and swift? Or is my medical knowledge incorrect? I cannot say for sure.

Of course, the Americans also use other punishments or methods not used in (?) other civilized states (shackling in transit etc).

I have seen a whole group of shackled prisoners in a Federal court building in the USA. All black. According to the F.B.I. agent standing with me, all murderers, and all lifers. A very sombre scene. All other people in the wide hallway stopped as the group, all handcuffed, all hobbled, all shackled in line together, passed through in total silence. As said, very sombre, and very sinister.

Speaking personally, I was always against the death penalty, and to some extent still am, but I see so many reports now in the UK of horrible murders and also rapes etc, that I think there may be a case for bringing back that penalty for some murders and other crimes, depending on the nature and quality of the defendants as well as the crimes. At least for a period of time. If so, using some quick method, possibly sometimes in public.

I notice that, in Belarus, a father who (with his equally wicked wife) starved, tortured, and finally killed his own 3-y-o son, was sentenced to death, which has been carried out in the manner prescribed by their law— Soviet-style, a bullet in the back of the head. The woman involved was sentenced to 25 years (probably without parole); apparently Belarus, like Texas long ago, never executes women.

What is more brutal, that Belorussian bullet, or what happens in the USA? Were I unfortunate enough to be in such a position, I should guess the American method(s), and so (if given the choice) might prefer the Soviet way of doing things…

I have only known one person, I think, who actually witnessed (at the scene, not on TV or online) an execution in the judicial sense. That execution was swift, consisting of a sword stroke cutting off the head in a split-second, and was carried out in public, in 1960s Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

[“A female humpback whale had become entangled in a spider web of crab traps and lines. She was weighted down by hundreds of pounds of traps that caused her to struggle to stay afloat. She also had hundreds of yards of line rope wrapped around her body, her tail, her torso, a line tugging in her mouth.

This is her story of giving gratitude.
A fisherman spotted her just east of the Faralon Islands (outside the Golden Gate) and radioed for help. Within a few hours, the rescue team arrived and determined that she was so badly off, the only way to save her was to dive in and untangle her…. a very dangerous proposition.
One slap of the tail could kill a rescuer.

They worked for hours with curved knives and eventually freed her.
When she was free, the divers say she swam in what seemed like joyous circles. She then came back to each and every diver, one at a time, nudged them, and pushed gently, thanking them. Some said it was the most incredibly beautiful experience of their lives.

The guy who cut the rope out of her mouth says her eye was following him the whole time, and he will never be the same.

May you be so fortunate …
To be surrounded by people who will help you get untangled from the things that are binding you.

And, may you always know the joy of giving and receiving gratitude.“]

As previously blogged, nothing Trump says or does can be taken at face value. His remarks and actions usually have a “shelf-life” of a day; a week at best.

Fake “socialist” scribbler and “I’m from the North-East, me..” poseur Kevin Maguire (house in Richmond-on-Thames, holiday home in Devon, affluent wife etc) is one of the worst influences on current-affairs TV. Pro-migration invasion, anti-white European race and culture.

The question is not whether migration invasion will collapse our society, but when, and what will then ensue.

Actually, that anti-white Indian tweeter is wrong too: “asylum-seekers” (migrant-invaders) are not “demonized” for failing to work, but for coming here (uninvited) and staying here (also uninvited and unwanted).

(Many, probably most, though, are parasites, and always would be).

Well, this week a fairly poor 4/10, (or 4.5/10 if using the scoring of of political journalist John Rentoul, who awarded himself “2.5/10”).

Typical. The vast monies effectively gifted to the Arabs (all the Arab oil states, not just the Saudis) by the West (whose people discovered the oil —and gas— and drilled for it, refined it, provided the markets for it, and shipped it) have been mainly wasted.

Look at Dubai, Qatar, Kuwait etc. Bearing in mind the money poured in, pitiful: poorly-designed and laid out, and with political and legal structures which are largely still in the 8th Century; and that is before you even look at their backward religious tendencies.

[“According to Polish Prime Minister Tusk, Ukraine’s losses have recently amounted to approximately 27,000 casualties (killed and wounded) per month.
He stated that these losses are record-breaking due to new Russian technologies.

A thought out of season

I have been trying to avoid the seemingly endless recent msm coverage of whether the present King did or did not make a dismissive comment to Princess Diana’s brother, the present Earl Spencer, about the Prince’s then recently ex-wife in 1997.

The same goes for the similar blanket coverage of the return of the prodigal waste of space (the Harry formerly known as Prince) and Meghan Mulatta.

It occurs to me how typical all that hullabaloo is of Britain today, a country that is always looking back, not forward.

I myself have no interest at all in whether the then Prince Charles did or did not make the comment complained of. Likewise, I have no interest in whether or not “Harry”, Meghan Mulatta, and their offspring relocate to Sussex or anywhere else.

At the other end of the social scale, we have seen, again quite recently, the football stadium incident, Hillsborough, still making political news 37 years after it happened!

Britain once looked forward, but now mainly looks back, and mainly looks at very minor events or incidents (in the big scheme of things), or looks back with rose-tinted or blurred glasses.

The reason is obvious— Britain, unless it changes radically very very soon, has no future, at least not one any white Northern European wishes to live in.

Britain should leave NATO, and cultivate closer relations with Russia. This is not 1939. Britain would be irredeemably devastated, irradiated, poisoned, and finished off should even one or two of Russia’s 7,000 nuclear weapons hit our little islands.

“If I wuz a rich man…”…

I blogged about loonie New Zealand woman “Rachel from Piddington” yesterday. A white woman with black “partner” and mixed-race children who thinks that any danger to herself and the 350 other villagers of Piddington (Oxfordshire) emanates from English protesters (mostly her fellow-villagers) and not from the (up to) 3,500 black and brown migrant invaders from the most backward parts of the world, invaders who are soon going to be dumped very near that village.

(BBC and officialdom claims “only” 1,250 invaders will be dumped there, but that is probably a lie; 3,500 has also been mentioned).

This is what we mean by “migration invasion”.

[“The thing you have to remember about Third Worldism is that it is not confined to a particular race, religion or class. My critique, which is now totally mainstream and has spread like wildfire, is all-encompassing.

There are plenty of White Third Worlders from white-majority countries like Romania and Albania. There are White Third Worlders who are native Brits, like the idiot NGO blobocrats in Piddington, or Gypsy and Traveller groups who indulge in crime and clan-based violence. There are also non-White people from the Indian subcontinent who are fleeing their countries to escape Third Worldism. I respect these people and have no beef with them.

The Third Worldist critique will obviously involve visa bans from Third World countries, but it will also involve a recognition that this tendency is not confined to a particular race or religion. The key is very draconian laws to prevent such people from entering our society.

What about White Third Worlders? Well, punish them. I have zero solidarity with these people despite them sharing an ethnic heritage with me.”]

As the tweeter implies, Gypsies from mainland Europe (eg Roma from Romania) are not themselves white or European, being originally of Indian origin. Real Romanians despise them, and even the socialist government there from the late 1940s to 1989 found it impossible to get them to live decently.

Incidentally, I still see newspapers in the UK referring to the many Roma Gypsies committing every type of crime in the UK as “Romanian“, just because they have Romanian passports, which is a terrible slur on the real Romanians.

Britain 2026

https://www.dailymail.com/news/article-16144141/Illegal-migrant-Deliveroo-rider-raped-woman-dragged-street.html

“An illegal migrant Deliveroo rider who dragged a woman off the street ‘like a ragdoll’ before raping her has been jailed for 21 years.

Following the vicious assault, which left his victim feeling ‘destroyed’, Salem Rekoub, 28, was caught on CCTV wearing his turquoise uniform and smirking as he followed her ambulance to hospital, because he wanted to ‘get to the woman again’.

Rekoub, who was dubbed a public danger by the judge, arrived in Britain on a tourist visa in 2023. He did not have the right to work in the UK.”

The bastard should be put up against a wall. In public. Wall. Squad. End.

As with so many cases of the sort, the victim was intoxicated in public, incapable by reason of drink.

Perhaps “Rachel from Piddington” would like to read that report. That is just one migrant-invader bastard. 3,500 others may soon be living alongside her village. If she is OK with that, she really is loonie, even by the standards of so many New Zealand women.

Incidentally, the vlog post below was just sent to me by a blog reader. It echoes, in part, what I wrote on the blog a day or so ago:

The “looming threat” of war comes entirely from the “Western” (NWO/ZOG) side. Russia is reacting to “Western” aggression, in particular the arming and funding of the corrupt Zelensky Jew-Zionist/Ukrainian-thug dictatorship in Kiev. In the well-worn phrase, “don’t poke the Bear“…

Goodwin is right to say “who will fight for Britain?“, meaning for the present decadent set-up in the UK. Obviously not the blacks and browns. Obviously not the Muslim element. Obviously not the Jewish element. That leaves real British men (women are still rarely on or near the front-line, if that term still means anything in an age of hypersonic nuclear missiles).

Why should British men fight for what Britain is becoming, a society that demonizes them for being white European (and even male)?

There is also the point that many of the younger Brits have been brainwashed at state schools and even fee-paying schools with what amounts to anti-British propaganda, “Black Lives Matter” rubbish etc. They have been told that there is little to be proud of in British history, except the war against the German Reich (ironically, one of the most negative aspects of our national history).

Now she wants to designate working-class men and women who are peacefully protesting the invasion of Britain as “terrorists” and have them banned altogether.

Quite a contrast to the Kiev regime of the Jew Zelensky.

In Kiev-regime Ukraine, men are abducted by press-gangs of military thugs, and are dragged off the streets into vehicles, then driven away to almost-certain death on the crumbling front lines. The Kiev regime is losing 500-2,000 men daily.

Hard to believe that that weird individual, who basically has nothing of interest to say anyway, is always on TV, in the Press etc.

In the end, the msm is a system set up to reinforce the overall ZOG/NWO set-up, so it suits their purposes to have pointless “commentators” such as Tim Montgomerie around, or on call.

Just listen to the content-free shite that that Montgomerie weirdo pumps out, e.g. in the clip above. Not just actually wrong, as in inaccurate, but totally ridiculous.

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

Ha ha! The Express has not been a real newspaper for several decades, but this latest nonsense really takes the cake. I can only assume that it refers to former soldiers willing to do rear-echelon duties here and there as some kind of civilian or Reserves auxiliary force.

The “prepare for war with Russia” stuff being retailed by the Mail and Express (etc) would be funny, were it not pathetic.

[“Tariq Ali
Today, I sent a bank payment to a French painter whose work I admire. It was for a stunning abstract. He got a call:

‘Just now I received a phone call from my bank saying that they can not accept your money transfer… I asked why ? And they say because of your « opinions »… So I asked them to write down this on an Email… And they accepted the transfer.’

My opinions can only mean those on one subject: Palestine. Why is Europe going down this road to such an extent? Perhaps the caller from the bank was acting individually and read a text of mine he/she hated. In that case why make the phone call?
Another friend , but in London, hearing the story remarked: ‘Lloyd Bank denied the mother of a Palestine Action prisoner a mortgage on account of her daughter’s arrest’
Is every bank behaving like this? Why no boycott of Lloyds. Bigotry before profits? Amazing.”]

“De-banking” has become a System weapon of choice. George Galloway suffered similarly, as have, in recent years, Nigel Farage, and Sam Melia, Laura Towler-Melia, and Mark Collett (all of Patriotic Alternative). I think that Nick Griffin of the BNP also had problems at one time. The individuals in banks that make such (often arbitrary and, of course, “woke”) decisions should be both identified and punished.

Not that I have any time for Tariq Ali, the pseudo-revolutionary plastic Marxist from a wealthy and exploitative Pakistani landowning family who was a well-known “activist” in the late 1960s and early/mid 1970s. I thought he must have died years ago, but apparently not (now 82): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariq_Ali.

Seems that Tariq Ali still has enough money invested to collect art that he likes. He’s just a complete fake, as far as I am concerned.

Zelensky mocks those who have given him untold millions. Not only the Americans, but the taxpayers of the UK and EU.

Take away his ricebowl before he can trigger a really major war (in which the unfortunate citizens of Kiev might be the first to perish, along with Zelensky himself, if he has not by then fled to Florida or Israel).

I might not much like Arabs, in general, let alone Islamists, but what the Jews (of Israel, but supported by others, in other countries, including the UK) have done in Gaza is just evil, and it still continues.

The West is doomed if it continues on its present path: pushing for conflict —and even nuclear war— with Russia, importing the racially and culturally backward into Europe (etc), not far from suffering demographic collapse, not far from suffering actual famine a decade or two down the line, and its higher culture being poisoned.

NWO/ZOG puppets such as Wes Streeting (Labour Friends of Israel) are just going through the motions of “1939-ism”— flashlights/torches on the bookcase, a stock of tinned food in case the “ration” is insufficient, etc etc. It’s all what people now call “gaslighting”. The enemy is not Russia (except that the Bear is being poked and poked to make it take on the role of enemy).

The real enemy is in Westminster, in the London TV studios, in the newspaper offices, in some of the universities, in the more influential Masonic lodges etc. Also, of course, in the [REDACTED]…

Voting will have little effect. Even voting for Reform or Restore, though obviously that is better than voting LibLabCon.

We are slowly, perhaps not so slowly, approaching a civil and social war situation in this country.

Death of a nobody

https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2026/sep/01/hrh-helch-the-graffiti-artist-who-left-an-indelible-mark-on-high-rise-britain

Why does it not surprise me that a disgusting vandal, a graffiti “artist”, who has died at 34 of causes not as yet made public (my two main guesses being either from drug overdose, or from suicide because the said “artist” vandal realized that, despite daubing his chosen name everywhere —I see that his real name was something else— he was a nobody) is eulogized by a Jewish scribbler in the Guardian?

As a matter of fact, I myself have never seen his graffiti anywhere.

Graffiti has been around a long time. There are examples from the times of the Romans, and even the ancient Egyptians: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graffiti. The degree to which it has been tolerated, historically, is a matter of dispute.

The fact is that modern graffiti can only be described as criminal visual violence, a fact implied by the Guardian’s Jewish scribbler, when, at the end of his little piece, he expresses his liking for the fact that it costs people much money to remove the meaningless scrawls (passing as art, at least to cretins).

The graffiti vandal is seeking to impose his assumed name on the public, to be therefore somehow “known”, a well-known “somebody”. In the end, though, most graffiti “art” is the realm of the untalented, the nobodies.

See also: https://metro.co.uk/2026/08/30/mysterious-graffiti-legend-helch-upset-queen-elizabeth-dies-29495835/ (another scribbler apparently impressed by both the deceased and the graffiti “community”).

Incidentally, while I do usually abide by the Latin maxim de mortuis nihil nisi bonum (“of the dead, nothing but good“), there are —and have to be— exceptions.

The mainstream media outlets are suffused with decadence. They should be purged.

When mainstream people with a platform start promoting the decadent and/or evil, society is sliding (as happened in Russia before the Revolution, incidentally). It has been ever more obvious post-1945 that that is the way America, Britain, indeed the West generally, has been going (and much of the world has followed suit).

[“The now-famous photograph of an SAS operator on January 15, 2019. A single member of the UK’s 22 SAS Regiment moving to respond to a terrorist attack on the DusitD2 Hotel complex in Nairobi, Kenya.

He was in the country teaching foreign internal defense to Kenyan special forces when al-Shabaab attackers hit the complex, grenades first, then a suicide vest, then gunfire on the guests inside. There was no time to form a proper team and nothing more than the kit he was already wearing.

He entered the compound alone, balaclava on, a shield badge identifying him as law enforcement to those he passed. He joined Dan Prastalo, a Slovenian with the diplomatic protective services, and the two of them started clearing the office block and car-park buildings floor by floor while the attack was still underway.

The siege lasted more than 12 hours before Kenyan forces declared the site secure. 21 civilians died. For what he did that day he later received the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross, Britain’s second highest award for gallantry in action. Unusually for a serving SAS soldier, his name eventually became public: Christian Craighead.

One man, on his own, in another country, with no order sending him in and every reason to stay out. He went in anyway.

“Who Dares Wins“]

The right stuff…

What goes around comes around. It is basic. If the malicious idiots posing as political leaders in France, the UK, Germany etc keep hitting Russia, using the Jew-Zionist/Ukrainian-thug regime in Kiev as proxy then, sooner or later, Russia will hit back, either directly or indirectly.

Why is that apparently so hard for some people to understand?

Germany should regard the Leipzig-Halle Airport attack as a kind of “Gypsy’s warning”.

[“Iran has not yet revealed its full military potential.

According to available information, Iran’s military arsenals already include tactical nuclear warheads, and these are not newly developed models. It is claimed that the corresponding systems were developed and produced much earlier.

Iran also possesses particularly powerful non-nuclear missile warheads. One such system has unofficially been dubbed the “Resurrection Bomb.” Its warhead weighs approximately four tons and has a high destructive power.

Previously, the adversary, it is claimed, obtained intelligence about the alleged location of tactical nuclear warheads and struck the corresponding facility. However, the information provided turned out to be incorrect, and the alleged storage facility was not hit.

According to these reports, tactical nuclear warheads are present in significant quantities and are integrated into the country’s existing missile capabilities.

Therefore, the current exchange of missile strikes is seen as only a limited portion of the available capabilities. The main potential may be used in the event of an immediate threat to the existence of the state.

In such a scenario, according to the available data, Iran possesses both particularly powerful missile systems and tactical nuclear warheads. That is why, when it is said that Iran has not yet used its full military potential, this should be taken literally.“]

[“Putin: We have liberated Svyatogorsk, and strikes on British military facilities are a military secret.

He stated that Russia wants a lasting peace, but will not negotiate with the Kyiv terrorists.

He clarified: Units of our Central Group are advancing in various key areas and are conducting street fighting in Dobropolye, an important logistical hub. We have also reached the eastern suburbs of Slaviansk and Kramatorsk, and the southern suburbs of Druzhkovka. Our army is only 12 kilometers from the bypass road around the city of Sumy and is creating a security zone in the border areas of the Sumy and Kharkiv regions.

“Moscow wants to achieve a lasting, absolute peace. We will not freeze the war; we want to end it.“]

Britain should leave NATO, regain independent control of its nuclear deterrent force, get cost-price gas from Russia, find a massive new market for British goods and services in the Russian and Russophone space, and cultivate far closer relations with Russia and the Russian people.

[“Keir Starmer never cared about the country. It was all about him. He only ever showed emotion when he lost his job.

Starmer-stein will no doubt be found a lucrative non-job by the Jewish lobby/Israel lobby. He is just a monkey-on-a-stick, one of many.

[“Keir Starmer said on Tuesday he was resigning as the MP for the Holborn and St Pancras seat in London after 11 years,

When Keir Starmer became British Prime Minister in July 2024, his net worth was estimated at around £3 million. When he stepped down in September 2026 estimates put it at over £7.5 million.”]

Interesting vlog featuring Siberia

Another “Matt and Julia” vlog post. This time they fly from Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan) to Novosibirsk, and then to Kemerovo, where Julia was born.

I was interested to see how nice, relatively uncrowded, and how up-to-date, were the airports. Novosibirsk Airport was especially impressive.

As to Kemerovo in snow, slush, and minus-degree temperatures, it looked pretty bleak to me. One thing that surprised me, and that I had noticed on some of their other vlog posts, is how far the couple are prepared to walk, when many (including me) would have preferred to go by car. They set off (not even wearing gloves) from the home of Julia’s relatives to central Kemerovo, striding purposefully through the snow in what looks like a vast snowbound urban landscape. They seem to be walking for miles.

Worth seeing, despite the relatively superficial commentary.

I think that is Kreshchatik, the main street of Kiev, but filmed long ago, in late Soviet times.

I do not usually watch ice-skating or ice-dancing, but it is amazingly graceful and skilled.

I myself have skated a little in the past, when I was in my twenties, though never either skilfully or gracefully. I occasionally hit the Queens Ice Rink in Queensway, Bayswater (London) in the early 1980s, and also skated once, in 1996, at the Olympic ice rink at Medeo, near Almaty, Kazakhstan, built for the 1980 Winter Olympics.

Happy times (in part).

Anti-fraud investigators in #Ukraine released recordings of Irina Mudraya repeatedly referring to instructions from “the leadership” – which the investigators said likely means either Budanov or Zelensky.

I hope that now they are not going to get what they have been wanting, the stupid nuts.

Britain should be cultivating better relations with Russia: leave NATO, and dump the Jew Zelensky and his corrupt shambolic thug regime.

Good luck to all grouse today. As people now say, “stay safe”.

On the blog 3 years ago

Diary Blog, 12 August 2023

How time flies— there is my blog post from 3 years ago today, and that dates from three months before my free speech trial of November 2023. Nearly three years ago. Hard to believe. Still, nice to reflect on the fact that the malicious Jews of the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] failed to shut down the blog, even during the trial itself. It has been published almost daily since the trial and sentencing (of March 2024), and is still being published at least 25 days per month.

I was blogging about that months ago. Action causes reaction. Many effectively Russian ships fly flags of convenience. So do many effectively British ships, and the same applies across the world. This is the 21st Century, yet we are now seeing state piracy on behalf of the Kiev regime. Do not think that Russia cannot respond.

The madness should be stopped but, with the ruling circles in the West set on conflict with Russia, the situation may well escalate.

True, but —as with the Ukraine situation— this is also partly an excuse to make people forget that the disastrous and utterly stupid (but on one level, planned) “Covid” “lockdown” immediately placed the UK economy on a permanently lower level, and quite deliberately.

The sheep (you know, the voters…) almost all complied with the ludicrous farrago of fake laws, “rules” etc put out by “Boris”-idiot, little Matt Hancock, and others.

Now those sheep are suffering, or starting to suffer, and the villain is supposed to be Russia, or Iran, or anything but the Western cabals who imposed those fake laws and closed down the UK and other economies for months and years.

I was shocked to see how easily the sheep were led by those with control of the levers of mass propaganda.

“Lockdown”, “social distancing”, “the Rule of Six”, the facemask nonsense etc. All entirely unnecessary (in reality, only a handful of people in the UK actually died of Covid).

As I blogged at the time, on one level the whole “Covid” thing was a massive psychological experiment; sadly, millions of people went along with it and probably even today believe it. Even years later, I occasionally see poor loonies wearing a facemask. Probably the same contaminated piece of cloth they have been breathing through for 6 years. Complete idiots, and victims of a “psy-op” which actually was not hugely sophisticated, though plainly co-ordinated at the start.

A kind of comfort blanket for the weak-minded.

I should love to hear the real views of people such as Sir Richard Dearlove [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Dearlove], though I am not convinced that such people know a great deal more, overall, than me. They just know more detail (arguably).

Burnham continues to underwhelm. The weather this year is fairly brutal, but political leadership cannot change it one little bit.

As for “climate change”, the evidence for its existence is patchy, and its causation via “emissions” not proven, as far as I am concerned.

Further, even if there is climate change and even if it is caused by the said emissions, only what is done by the largest industrial powers, notably China, India, and the USA, would make a real difference. Britain is only sending out 1% of the said emissions, if that. In other words, even if Britain disappeared completely, or achieved “Net Zero”, the difference in emission-output would be somewhere between 1% and zero.

What political leadership in the UK can do is to plan ahead and to take strategic decisions that have practical outcomes.

The most important action that should be taken is to stop mass immigration. All the millions of migrant invaders (“small boat” invaders, “legal immigrants”, and those born to immigrant mothers or to stupid British women impregnated by non-Europeans) use water, for one thing. 55 million people lived in the UK when I was born (1956); now, 65-70 million.

The next thing that government can do is to ameliorate the effects of continued hot weather. Build more reservoirs. Not one public reservoir has been constructed in 34 years in the UK. I now read that some are being planned and that a few have even been started. However, it takes years to construct a large reservoir, and months or —more usually— years for such reservoirs to fill, especially in periods of low rainfall.

A further action that would help is to give some financial help to planters and growers who want private reservoirs (which can cost up to £2M). That helps because the water for irrigation would then come from the private reservoir, not from public reservoirs, rivers, and aquifers.

Of course, none of the above can change the weather, but those and other measures might help to mitigate the effects.

I once lived for a while on a Caribbean island without reservoirs or (when I was there) any desalination plant (one was being built while I was there). In fact, there was no mains water on the island at that time. However, all large or medium-size houses were built around a large tank, so that when it did rain (torrentially, in hurricane season), water was retained. Certainly, the villa in which I lived never ran out of water for showers etc (you had to buy drinking water, imported from the USA, mostly).

UK governments should make new buildings include such tanks, and also potential air-conditioning. Yes, there is a cost penalty; well, boo-hoo. It is necessary.

Reverting to Burnham, my initial view of him as someone who just wants to do what appears popular (except for stopping the migration invasion, of course) is daily reinforced.

Look at the “P.C. Harper” case, re. the tinker/”traveller” criminals who killed a policeman a few years ago. The big picture strategy would be to remove or eliminate such “traveller” criminals, if necessary as a whole “community”, rather than horse around, as Burnham is, trying to prevent a few individual ones from getting early release from prison. In fact, he is only doing that because he does not want the mass media to report that he is doing nothing.

Strategy, not day-to-day tactics.

Underwhelming. I saw the last one, in 1999, which on the Dorset/Hampshire coast where I saw it was about 99% and very memorable. Around midday, the skies quite suddenly darkened, and stayed dark for several minutes.

For some reason, the BBC has gone crazy about this not terribly interesting partial eclipse (in UK) of 2026. It leads the news broadcasts. Senseless.

Ah, I must have missed the fact that that Heath individual is now the Editor of the Sunday Telegraph. That explains much. I had been wondering why both the Sunday Telegraph and Daily Telegraph, pro-Jewish lobby and pro-Israel for many years anyway, had apparently become manically so more recently.

[“The cost of chartering the largest oil tankers on the route from the Middle East to China has reached approximately $500,000 per day. At the beginning of the year, this amount was around $25,000-$30,000.

A German news agency reported that due to the increased risks of transiting the Strait of Hormuz, many shipping companies are refusing to pass through the strait. This has led to a reduction in the number of available oil tankers and a sharp increase in prices.

The largest oil tanker carries 2 million barrels of oil, worth $200 million. A 30-day voyage from the Persian Gulf to China costs an amount equal to 7.5% of the cargo’s value. That is, one barrel out of every 13 goes towards the cost of transportation.“]

Final thought of the day

Saw “Engels” trending on Twitter/X. Was intrigued briefly, until I understood that the Engels in question was not Friedrich Engels [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedrich_Engels] but some footballer with the same surname…

Saturday quiz

Well, this week my 6/10 scored a clear victory over the 3/10 of political journalist John Rentoul. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 6, 7, and 9.

Talking point

That is a screenshot from my one-time Twitter account, which ran from about 2010 to 2018, when a pack of Jews conspired together to mass-report me to Twitter. The result was that I was expelled from Twitter and my account deleted. However, that was a blessing in disguise because, as a result of my Twitter account having been deleted, potential “evidence” against me on mooted (but never made) charges of “incitement to racial hatred” could not be found, and the provenance of alleged tweets could not be established.

Once again, the Jewish/Israel lobby shot itself in the foot, in other words.

I think the point made in the pinned tweet is even more valid in 2026.

“Youngest (and black) professor at Cambridge is a plagiarist”

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07/24/cambridges-diversity-poster-boy-in-plagiarism-row/?recomm_id=d551a520-1bb7-47ec-af05-75f34c451598

[Cambridge “professor” and alleged plagiarist, one Jason Arday]

Even leaving aside the plagiarism, the academic world and society should bin fake academic disciplines such as sociology, particularly the jargon-ridden type so prevalent today. You often find that Jewish individuals are prominent in all that. For example:

“Supporters of Prof Arday became aware last year of questions about his academic legitimacy, and responded with furious accusations of racism.

Prof Sir Simon Baron-Cohen, the director of Cambridge’s autism research centre, and cousin of the comedian Sacha Baron-Cohen, and Ricardo Sabates, professor of education, circulated an open letter under the heading: “URGENT PLEASE SIGN ANTI-RACISM LETTER FOR JASON ARDAY.”

[Daily Telegraph]

[Update, 30 July 2026: seems that the Daily Telegraph agrees with my points… https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/07/29/academia-has-a-much-bigger-problem-than-plagiarism/

“Cambridge chose to ignore the warning on the basis that the allegedly plagiarised research was “not within our remit” because it had not been completed at their university. They were too busy basking in the DEI glow of a professor who had beaten seemingly insurmountable odds: struggling with autism, non-verbal until the age of 11, unable to read and write until he was 18 (somewhat implausible given he did manage to secure two GCSEs).

When Arday did face criticism, he knew how to weaponise the progressive machine against defectors. In response to an email from Harris citing concerns about plagiarism he complained that “instead of spending your time trying to dismantle racism and ableism, you have spent what I assume is hours combing through my work looking for mistakes” and that “anything further from you will be considered bullying and harassment”.

The second truth is that Jason Arday has succeeded in a field of academia where genuinely good work simply does not exist. Good critical race theory isn’t a thing. Academia should function as a tool to expand and deepen human knowledge. PhDs are meant to establish previously unknown facts about the world. But for a long time, sociology simply hasn’t done this.

Let’s look at some of the work that Arday is alleged to have plagiarised. His PhD was titled “An exploration of peer-monitoring among student teachers’ [sic] to inform reflective practice within the context of action research”. This means absolutely nothing. The purpose of his work “was to analyse and synthesise existing literature and research in order to better understand the multi-faceted nature of reflected practice”…

The only aspect left out of that Telegraph piece is, as one might expect, the Jewish aspect in sociology teaching.]

Every announcement Burnham has made so far has been an attempt to get voters from various directions onside. Only in time will it become clear that Burnham’s various announcements are 95% hot air. So, yes, he may well be thinking of holding a general election before his government fails on all fronts.

Burnham faces a “Devil’s alternative”, in that he presently has 403 Labour MPs. An election sometime soon would reduce that number considerably, perhaps to 250 or 300. However, to hang on until 2028 or 2029 might result in Labour reducing to 200 or even 100.

[“The Guardian: “Iran, using Chinese satellite imagery and tactics learned from Russia’s war in Ukraine, is bombing American bases and vital infrastructure in the Persian Gulf with increasing accuracy.
Iran has maintained an effective missile capability, which the new leadership is prepared to use.
Iranian missiles have a sophisticated navigation system and simultaneously use American GPS, Chinese BeiDou, and Russian GLONASS for targeting.“]

It might be more than a joke in 10 years’ time…

I am currently enjoying my week of free access to the Daily Telegraph, my favourite section being the obituaries. However, the reportage and particularly the comment elsewhere in the newspaper is so pro-Jewish lobby, so pro-Israel, that I shall certainly not be paying to continue to read it.

The msm in the UK show a completely one-sided picture of the present conflict; the terror attacks on Russian civilians by the Kiev regime are rarely covered.

I should say that Burnham has until the end of the year to bite the bullet and call a general election; any time after that, and he is toast, Labour is toast.

Stop paying out for migrant invaders (food, housing, transport, NHS/dental, police, prison spaces etc), and stop throwing money at the Jewish/Ukrainian-thug regime in Kiev. Just those two economies would save enormous amounts, enough to fund adult social care for British people, and decent pensions.

Who needs him? Who wants him? Yes, he and his cabal got him elected (just) as MP for some no-hope place near Manchester. Now he suddenly poses as Prime Minister. Completely invalid in real-world politics.

I notice that Reform UK is still ahead of Labour in the opinion polls, though only by a couple of points. However, the Greens are sinking, which promotes Labour and will mitigate electoral losses; Burnham’s convoluted statements seem to have slightly mollified 2024 Green voters (both the Muslims and other non-whites, and the white anti-Israel-ers).

Burnham is behaving more like a regional politician from some devolved government rather than a head of UK government.

Incidentally, about 65% of the UK population lives south of Birmingham, and about 37% of the UK population lives in the South and South-East (including London).

For God’s sake! Enough!

This needs a Betjeman to chronicle it. Instead of “a light blue carpet on the stair, and Lady Mary standing there” (probably a misquote) something involving a swimming pool, shady places, and some ice-cold vegetable okroshka.

Both main System parties are to blame.

Also, why have “wards” been largely done away with in many advanced countries (they have this thing called hospital “rooms” for 1-2 people), but are still considered normal in the backward UK?

“Our NHS”…supposedly.

This country is becoming a multikulti dystopia.
