That lunatic, Ellwood, will not be happy until this country is a heap of blackened, radioactive ash. Incidentally, he is a Reserve colonel of the 77th Brigade psychological warfare unit.

Ellwood himself is so brave that he could not even admit to his neighbours that he had run over their cat while driving too fast and carelessly. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11007353/Village-fury-Tory-MP-Tobias-Ellwood-runs-1-000-cat-drives-away.html.

Ellwood may be part-Jew; just a hunch, and I may be wrong.

Funny, really. The remnants of the British Army apparently gearing up for a war with Russia; meanwhile, the UK is being invaded (“legally” or “illegally”) by about a million migrant-invaders every year. Soon there will be nothing much (for whatever is left of the Army, Royal Navy, and RAF) to defend…

The Jew Zelensky knows that his time is limited in terms of bringing NATO directly into war with Russia. The Western populations are tiring of “Ukraine” as a trendy cause, and Western governments are tiring of sending almost endless amounts of money, arms, and ammunition to the Kiev regime, especially now that the much-trumpeted counter-offensive has almost if not actually stalled.

Zelensky and his corrupt and brutal cabal have only one real chance— to bring NATO into the war directly on the “Ukrainian” (Kiev regime) side. That therefore is their aim. Method? Perhaps to attack the Zaporozhye nuclear plant, blame that on Russia, and hope that NATO then either declares war on Russia (unlikely) or starts to fight without declaration of war (more likely).

We could well be looking at either full-scale nuclear war not far down the line, or at least full-scale conventional war in Europe alone, which might or might not later trigger a strategic nuclear exchange involving the USA.

Americans should think carefully before firing on Russia, or helping Western European states to do so. The USA may have several times the nuclear-destructive power of Russia overall, but if the top 50 cities of the USA were hit and/or destroyed by nuclear missiles, that means the end of American power (and society) for a century or more.

Yes, the USA might destroy as many or more Russian cities, but the USA would still be a chaotic mess of destroyed cities, violent social disorder, and tens of millions —perhaps hundreds of millions— of dead and dying. Think very very carefully before bringing such consequences on yourselves and others.

Thought

You carry in your blood the holy inheritance of your
fathers and forefathers. You do not know those who
have vanished in endless ranks into the darkness of the
past. But they all live in you and walk in your blood upon
the earth that consumed them in battle and toil and in
which their bodies have long decayed.

Your blood is therefore something holy. In it your parents gave you not only a body, but your nature. To deny your blood is to deny yourself. No one can
change it. But each decides to grow the good that one has
inherited and suppress the bad. Each is also given will
and courage.

You do not have only the right, but also the duty to pass
your blood on to your children, for you are a member of
the chain of generations that reaches from the past into
eternity, and this link of the chain that you represent
must do its part so that the chain is never broken.

But if your blood has traits that will make your children
unhappy and burdens to the state, then you have the
heroic duty to be the last. The blood is the carrier of life. You carry in it the secret of creation itself. Your blood is holy, for in it God’s will
lives.”

I have blogged for the past year or more that the best idea is for Russia to take the areas of Ukraine east of the Dnieper, and for some Ukrainian successor to the Zelensky regime to control the larger area west of the Dnieper, and centred on Lvov. That would leave aside the Kiev area (which is on both sides of the Dnieper), Crimea, and the Black Sea littoral centred on Odessa.

Crimea was always Russian, with a mainly (now almost entirely) Russian population. Kiev should probably have some kind of special status, and Odessa either the same or a degree of autonomy, with Russia controlling the Black Sea coast to a depth of about 50-100 miles.

“Boris” Johnson and the Lebedev family

Saw a recording of a documentary (I think Channel 4) about “Boris”-idiot and the Lebedev father and son (with the old KGB, its successor-agencies, and British SIS and MI5, as spear-carriers).

The whole thing is rather odd, and there are certainly questions to be answered, but I cannot see Johnson as a Russian agent, not as such. For one thing, he is at root completely unideological; any such connection would be money-based or based upon getting help to push “Boris” upward (he was Foreign Secretary at the time he visited one of the Italian castles owned by the Lebedevs).

At the time, as now, the Lebedevs controlled msm outlets such as the Independent and Evening Standard.

My tentative conclusion at the end was that, possibly/probably what happened was that the younger Lebedev was offered a peerage for straight cash to “Boris”, paid somewhere offshore, protected by layers of (perhaps) offshore trusts and companies, such as Panamanian trusts and/or numbered bank accounts. A personal deal, nothing to do with the old KGB, or its SVR successor, though the details would no doubt be of interest to the latter, and to the Kremlin.

I concede that I have no evidence at all with which to back the above speculation. Pure speculation and hunch, backed only by the facts as known. Why did Johnson later nominate Lebedev junior for a peerage? Against Security Service and other advice, too.

Of course, at the time Johnson visited the Lebedevs in Italy, he was Foreign Secretary, not Prime Minister, so could not have nominated anyone for a peerage, but his unmerited likely elevation to No.10 was a good each-way bet at the time, and anyway no money need to have been paid unless and until.

If it happened, how much money? Name any figure north of £10M. £20M is good, £100M even better.

“Boris’s” pension.

Nuclear war visualization

I post that despite it having been posted first by a Kiev-regime supporter, because we should take even the possibility seriously, and stop stoking the fires of the war. Take away Zelensky’s ricebowl— stop sending arms and ammunition, and money, to the Kiev regime.

Those with real power and influence in the West must stop the slide to nuclear war, before it is too late.

…as with “Boris” Johnson…

At first, when the news broke about “Boris” Johnson, the then Prime Minister, being in intensive care from “Covid”, I was probably 60% “it’s real news” and 40% “it’s fake news”. Now? About 70% in favour of it having been “fake news”, and it having been part of the whole “scamdemic” propaganda effort.

If Wagner Group are “terrorists”, then how much more are the American forces, after all the millions they have killed worldwide since 1941?

[devastated Berlin, 1945]

Perhaps. In days of yore, Stalin would have shot the heads of the Russian Army and GRU soon after the pathetic failed takeover of the Ukraine in 2022.

Just an Indian money-juggler.

Interesting to see the generally downward trend over 30+ years. Will Sunak go as low as Liz Truss? We shall see.

Don’t tell me that Woollyhead Trussbanger is trying a comeback?!

The same or similar is true of the UK.

I do not know, but maybe, with much of the Zelensky-regime army now either dead or occupied in the southeast of Ukraine, there is a plan to attack from Belarus, but Kiev must now be well-defended in depth. Any approach to the suburbs of Kiev would meet with stiff resistance, then would require a reduction of the urban and suburban battlefield space by artillery, aircraft, and missiles before a mass infantry incursion, and would be horrendously bloody, bearing in mind the number of civilians in Kiev.

A battle for Kiev would be on the level of [the WW2 battle for] Stalingrad, or the recent Bakhmut carnage, in ferocity, and on a much larger scale even than Stalingrad.

Kiev is the 7th-most populous city in Europe, or 6th if Istanbul is excluded: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_European_cities_by_population_within_city_limits. Istanbul, Moscow, London, St. Petersburg, Berlin, Madrid, Kiev. Of those 7 cities, 3 are of course in the former Soviet Union.

Having said the above, the Wagner Group forces seem to have been sidelined, with many sworn into the ordinary Russian Army. If PMC Wagner is “decapitated”, leaderless, and not in Belarus, how could it attack from there?

It looks more like a bloodless dispersal of Wagner Group assets.

The truth may be out there, but I think that we do not know it yet.

In any case, why would it have been “justified” in the early 1930s? The KPD (German Communist Party) of the time was under Stalin’s control (via the Comintern) and, in the Soviet Union, mass slaughter was already happening in various ways. The NSDAP was a necessary Abwehr (“parrying”) to that Stalinist expansionism. Once in power, the NSDAP lifted Germany and its people out of degradation, and made Germany the most prosperous nation in Europe.

People, some people, should learn some real history…

As for any attempted historical analysis by the likes of Gary Lineker, the hugely-overpaid football talking-head, life is too short to waste time on it (or him).

Good grief. I knew that it was expensive but thought maybe £100-£200.

I suppose that age demographics come into it. I do not know what is the age typical of a Glastonbury audience, but not that young, I am guessing. Like owning a top-range motorbike, or a Morgan car, it is (?) the prerogative of the middle-aged and even elderly, these days.

Not that I have been there. At least, I have been to the town of Glastonbury a number of times (and have even stayed overnight a couple of times), but of course not to the music festival.

I remember when the Reading Festival was first held there, which I think was either 1970 or 1971. 1971, I think. If so, I was not quite 15. I remember driving with my mother, the day before it started, down the lane through the riverside meadows where it takes place, mainly to see the “hippies” who were already arriving. A human safari park, if you like. Our family lived on the other side of the river, in the suburb of Caversham Heights.

In those days, “pop festivals” were for the young (16-25, maybe 16-30). Of course, the general population has aged, and I see now that tickets for the Reading Festival cost hundreds of pounds.

An outright fraud. Anyone who supports her or sends her money is just a total mug.

Diary Blog, 16 June 2023, with more thoughts about the “Jack Monroe” “grift” and/or fraud(s) etc

Morning music

“Jack Monroe” latest

I am not a doctor but, in my layman’s view at least, “Jack Monroe” is a type of psychopath not unknown in psychiatric literature: relentless, and likely to “double down” on her lies even after they have been comprehensively exposed as lies.

The “sue Lee Anderson and Martin Daubney” “grift” has been typical. She crowdfunded to sue them (ostensibly). She never in fact had a case, because their (I agree) defamatory (as innuendo) statements saying that “Jack Monroe” “lived off the backs of the poor” etc were, in a word, true. They were true statements (though possibly simply “mere insult”, and not actionable). Anderson and Daubney therefore had a complete defence of “truth”, even leaving aside fair comment, honest opinion etc, and the “mere insult” point. Also, had the matter gone to trial, “Jack Monroe” would have been required to disclose at least the outline of her financial affairs. She could never allow that.

It is noteworthy that the Jew lawyer, Mark Lewis, who had conduct of the libel case brought by “Jack Monroe” against Katie Hopkins years ago (a case impossible to lose; Ms. Hopkins was in the wrong, was possibly badly advised, and should have eaten crow a bit, and settled at an early stage), has in the past year not even emerged from his kennel re. “Jack Monroe”.

Lewis, now resident mainly in Israel, does not take on cases certain to fail (because he would then make no money).

It always looked like “Jack Monroe” had simply kept the “sue Lee Anderson” monies, and I shall believe that (as with her previous scams) that is exactly what happened in this case, unless and until I see at least plausible proof to the contrary.

“Jack Monroe” now simply “doubles down” and says “I could have won against Lee Anderson and Martin Daubney, but chose not to“! Stunning mendacity. The sad thing is that a great many of the mug followers of “Jack Monroe” will actually believe it.

Meanwhile, “Jack Monroe” is also claiming that her house on the South Essex coast has been besieged by large numbers of reporters and members of the public. Completely untrue, as far as I know.

That in turn has excited many of her mentally-unstable supporters, as with “David Salt (backing all strikes)” here below:

[6 July 2023 update: the David Salt tweeter has changed the name]

[28 October 2024 update: “”Oliver McGurn/@davidsalt2001” may have deleted his tweet, which read “I’d love to meet some of these people Jack, I’m not a violent person but I make an impact! Sending you hugs xx.” What a total idiot— presumably what is now, apparently, termed a “neckbeard”…].

Oddly enough, my blog received a semi-threatening comment (not published, and the sender blocked, of course) recently by a troll calling itself “No Name” and referencing my comments about “Jack Monroe” appearing on BBC Question Time (don’t they vet guests at all?) . I rather suspect that “No Name” was “Jack Monroe”. If not, one of her crazed supporters. Still, I am fair-minded, and it may have been just another mentally-disturbed Jew-Zionist.

I read, late last year, that a black woman in Bristol was awaiting Crown Court trial for crowdfunding for legal costs and then keeping the money for her own personal use. How is this different?

Then of course there is a long list of other “Jack Monroe” frauds, scams, and lies. Too many to repeat here.

[Update, 2 December 2023: well, the said black woman has been imprisoned for fraud but it seems that “Jack Monroe” grifts on regardless and with impunity, despite —as far as I can see— having done the same or similar: see https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-67272603, and https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/oct/31/edward-colston-statue-protest-bristol-xahra-saleem-fundraiser:

A key organiser of the protest in Bristol during which a statue of the slave trader Edward Colston was toppled and dumped in the city’s harbour has been jailed for two and a half years for fraud.

Xahra Saleem, 23, admitted using more than £30,000 that was supposed to go to a charity for disadvantaged youngsters in the city to fund her lifestyle, including spending almost £6,000 on Uber rides.

…it took place soon after she had moved to Bristol and was living away from her family for the first time. At the time she had been taking drugs and drinking to excess. She also had mental health issues. He said there was little or no planning in what she did and she spent the money foolishly.

Over a 15-month period, she spent the funds on rent, an iPhone, iMac, purchases on Amazon, hair and beauty appointments, takeaways and Uber rides.

She made a string of false excuses about why she was not handing the money over to the charity – including that Black Lives Matters had advised her not to – but in the summer of 2021 admitted the money had gone.

[The Guardian]

How is that different from what “Jack Monroe” has done?]

My own impression, reading her tweets, and having seen her on TV once or twice, is that “Jack Monroe” is a dangerous woman, and one who, in other circumstances, might have been a more conventional type of criminal, or even worse.

Ha. Very true. I have never read or heard “Jack Monroe” say anything at all interesting, as far as I can recall. Maybe that is because, for her, everything revolves around her, and around her basically very limited world.

As far as I know, “Jack Monroe” rarely if ever travels beyond the UK or nearby countries such as the Netherlands, and exhibits no interest in a wider world of culture, politics, or the environment. She lives in a little —mainly London/Essex— bubble, and does not even drive a car. Maybe just as well, in view of her (supposedly past) problems with alcohol and (it is sometimes alleged) drugs.

As far as I can see, she has a very low level of education and culture, though admittedly that is concealed to some extent by a superficial glibness.

I wonder how she would score on the psychopathy test scale? My guess— off the scale.

“Grifter” and fraudster “Jack Monroe” still making empty threats, this time against Lee Anderson (again).

Sadly naive of that NHS mental health nurse, one “M Holland”.

[Update, 2 December 2023: the M. Holland tweet is now deleted or hidden].

The fact is that some people have mentally “bought into” “Jack Monroe” the way others have bought into “Covid”, the facemask nonsense, Greta Nut, Extinction Rebellion etc. Facts simply irritate them.

Ha ha! Hard to believe that there are mugs taking that sort of “Jack Monroe” nonsense as if it is really clever, as in “let’s keep our weekly shopping bill below £20 by simply…using up what we already have in the kitchen“!… It’s like something from a TV sitcom about gormless students or something.

Even harder to believe that (on paper) quite a few “Jack Monroe” supporters have (whatever they may now be worth) “degrees”, and professional qualifications in a few cases. As noted previously, few are under 50, few if any are from ethnic minorities (who presumably would never eat “Jack Monroe” swill-food), and few if any are, in a word, poor…

The mentality of “Jack Monroe” supporters is hard to fathom. “Blockheads” hardly covers it.

There is more to this than “Tories” supporting their own. “Boris” Johnson was an almost ideal NWO/ZOG candidate for Prime Minister— part-Jew, part-Muslim origins, born in New York City, brought up in the USA, Belgium etc before taking on “Brit” camouflage via Eton and Oxford.

Pro-mass-immigration. Obsessed with making money. Even more importantly, with not the slightest loyalty to anyone or anything, let alone Britain and its people, and willing to do anything for fame, money and (very much third in line) power. Uninterested in making the lives of British people better. Uninterested in stopping the migration invasion.

Quis custodiet custodes ipsos?

https://www.walesonline.co.uk/lifestyle/showbiz/jack-monroe-says-absolute-hell-27134514

The above newspaper report from an outlet called Wales Online has been the only newspaper, online or offline, to have reported today on “Jack Monroe”. It has done no investigation and simply reports what “Jack Monroe” has chosen to tell it. As journalism, on the lowest possible level of quality beyond actually inventing a story.

The Wales Online “report” mentions that “Jack, who is from Southend-on-Sea, was met with numerous messages of support” on Twitter (and quotes from three tweets) but ignores the dozens if not hundreds of tweets which, today alone, have been critical of “Jack Monroe” and her years of “grifting” and fraud.

Very poor. Written by one Sam Cook, who is described as follows: “Sam is our TV writer and showbiz journalist. Prior to working at WalesOnline, he was previously a video journalist and presenter at Local TV. Over the course of his career, Sam has interviewed several big stars including Michael Sheen, Jodie Whittaker and David Walliams. He is a member of the RTS Cymru Wales committee and currently hosts the podcast, In the Spotlight, for WalesOnline.

Rock-bottom-level scribbling.

Is “Wales Online TV reporter Sam Cook” somehow acquainted with “Jack Monroe”, apart from this “interview” (if I dignify it with such a term)?

Actually, rereading his piece, it seems to be not even just a one-sided and very poor interview, but simply a retelling of “Jack Monroe’s” own tweets, lifted straight from Twitter and then presented, superficially, as if the scribbler has had an interview with her.

Having said that, I am more interested in the fact that, despite “Jack Monroe” claiming that reporters from “Fleet Street” were ringing her doorbell (in Essex) and looking in the windows, i.e. more or less besieging her house, to the extent that she and her son (who may not even live with her anyway; that seems to be disputed) have had to flee elsewhere, not one major news outlet has reported on “Jack Monroe” today. Not one. Not even the Press pack tabloids such as the Daily Mail or Sun.

More “Jack Monroe” lies…

More tweets seen

The “Laurie Leebody” tweeter is not atypical of Twitter virtue-signallers, who express opinions despite knowing nothing of the subject-matter.

The weird thing about the whole Lee Anderson/Jack Monroe situation from the point of view of the Twitterati reaction is that hundreds of tweeters expressed disgust at “30p Lee’s” claim that he could make some kind of meal for 30p, yet the same idiotic Twitter-types fawn over “Jack Monroe” and her claim to be able to undercut Lee Anderson and make something for as little as 11p! (both claims seem, to me, to be from Alice in Wonderland home economics).

11p? That’s one or two slices of decent bread (no butter), or a tenth (?) of a packet of cheap pasta (disregarding the cost of cooking it).

Frankly, I doubt whether anything approaching a decent feed can be had for less than, say, 50p, and that would be something like a tin of cheap sardines on toast. Not too bad, though, I suppose.

Tweeter “Liz Ward” is typical of a certain Twitter type. See how she jumps into an existing conversation, insults someone who has noted the lies and scams of “Jack Monroe”, then threatens —stupidly— to “report” tweeter “Reiltin” for “harassment“. A very stupid woman, evidently. Look at her Twitter heading: pro-trade unions (which are a dead letter now), pro-“Black Lives Matter” (i.e. socio-politically idiotic) and pro-NHS (as I am, in principle, but it is not working as presently constituted).

Seems that tweeter “Reiltin” thought that “Liz Ward” is just another “Jack Monroe” “sock account”. Maybe; she has hundreds.

“Jack Monroe” is quite obviously now very frightened of having to undergo cross-examination in court, whether by Counsel, a solicitor, or a judge (a judge has the right to ask questions of any witness, though most judges most of the time exercise that right sparingly). “Jack Monroe” is in that respect rather like some of the Jew-Zionists who have targeted me in the past (and continue to do so). They are afraid to testify against me because afraid of what will come out about them.

One “Ian Cameron”, another “Jack Monroe” “white knight”…

I myself have never seen proof of any “death threats” to “Jack Monroe”. That’s just another key on her scam-piano, along with “mental health”, “other health problems”, “her child” (apparently usually lives elsewhere anyway), “activism” (occasional anti-“Tory” tweets), fake/invented “Vimes Boots Index”, “costs of moving house” etc.

You can see how easy it is for people such as “Ian Cameron” to be fooled, totally played, yet that fellow probably considers himself educated, intelligent etc. Look how poor are his reasoning skills.

Thus it is that, as of today, 412 utter mugs are still signed up to Patreon, each sending “Jack Monroe” between £3.50 and £44 a month…a “nice little earner”, in the argot of South Essex.

Short and sweet…and convincing.

Why is “Jack Monroe” not being interviewed by Essex Police about her fraudulent activities? Are they too busy seizing “racist” teddy bears?

As I said. See above.

Statement

As regular readers will know, I am now, once again, the target of a malicious and politically-motivated attack, this time a prosecution, instigated by the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, a very small but well-funded group of fanatical Zionist Jews.

I made a statement about this previously; see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2023/05/29/diary-blog-29-may-2023/.

I now see that there have been a couple of tweets inaccurately stating that I am to be tried this month. Not so. Any trial (if one is actually held at all) will be held in November or December 2023, or possibly even in 2024. In the interim period, there will be at least one brief and purely procedural hearing.

A nuisance, of course, but since the latest malicious attempt was publicized (by the “CAA” goblins themselves, on Twitter and on their website), there has been an increase in the readership of this blog. Silver lining?

Nadine Dorries and the Mid-Bedfordshire constituency

I was considering the Nadine Dorries situation.

At present, Nadine Dorries remains MP for the constituency of Mid-Bedfordshire. She most recently, in 2019, was re-elected with nearly 60% of the vote, and had previously usually achieved over 50%: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mid_Bedfordshire_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2010s.

A safe Conservative Party seat, which she has represented since 2005, and which has been good to her— good salary, hugely-inflated expenses, time out to appear on I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here for a very large fee, and to write about a dozen cheap novels.

She was able to employ at least two of her three daughters on very inflated salaries (via MP expenses) and has been investigated several times by the police. On at least one occasion, the file was passed to the Crown Prosecution Service for consideration for prosecution. However, she has wriggled out of trouble every time.

Now, having announced her immediate resignation [see https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-65910896], Nadine Dorries has not in fact done what is necessary, i.e. to apply, notionally, for “an office of profit under the Crown“, usually either “Steward of the Chiltern Hundreds” or “Bailiff of the Manor of Northstead”.

The delay is plainly because Nadine Dorries was, or so she claims, offered a peerage by the former Prime Minister, Johnson, which offer is now worthless. That she was offered a peerage was apparently the case; her nomination for a peerage was one of those deleted from the list, supposedly by decision of Rishi Sunak.

It seems clear to me that Nadine Dorries announced her “resignation” because she was sure of getting a well-paid sinecure as a “baroness” in the Lords— ~£350 a day without any need even to pretend to do anything for it, plus well-subsidized and palatial surroundings in which to meet people, network etc.

In theory, Nadine Dorries could hang on as MP until the next General Election, getting the salary, the expenses etc, while doing nothing. Perhaps she will.

Nadine Dorries was only too happy to jettison the loyal —and possibly stupid— voters of Mid-Bedfordshire. Unsurprising. As soon as her then-husband and father of her children developed multiple sclerosis, she (in effect) abandoned him, after 23 years of marriage: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadine_Dorries#Personal_life.

I was just comparing Nadine Dorries [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadine_Dorries] with the MP, Stephen Hastings, who held the seat from 1960 to 1983: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Hastings.

Hastings’ biography includes Sandhurst, and WW2 action with the Scots Guards, the early SAS, and the shambolic but certainly sometimes courageous SOE, later followed by 12 years with SIS/MI6.

Naturally, Hastings was born with a silver spoon compared to Nadine Dorries. No argument. Eton, Sandhurst, the expectation and inheritance of several large, or arguably even great estates. Financially, and in terms of useful connections, he had it far easier than Nadine Dorries, born into relative poverty in Liverpool.

All the same, which of the two really would be better as MP?

In fact, that sort of decline in standards has happened across the board since about 1989. Compare Jo Grimond, for example, with Jo Swinson. Both Liberal/LibDem leaders, but what a contrast! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jo_Grimond; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jo_Swinson.

Again, one was born into affluence, indeed into riches, and never had to struggle financially, but the point is which of the two was the more fitted to be an MP and political leader.

Incidentally, I noticed that Stephen Hastings wrote an autobiography, Drums of Memory. I have just ordered a used copy, and for the knockdown price of £1.75 plus a couple of pounds postage. Pretty good value for a hardback book in apparently almost new condition. Will look forward to reading that, assuming it actually arrives (my last purchase, Anna Karenina in Russian, has been refunded by Amazon because of some problem with distribution).

If “Jack Monroe” did that, she might trigger an avalanche of similar claims, together with even more negative publicity.

Her pseudo-celebrity supporters are ebbing away. Weak waste of space Alice Beer is the latest. Jay Rayner cut “Jack Monroe” loose nearly a year ago now, and Nigella Lawson later followed suit.

None will denounce her, but will just show her the cold shoulder.

I suppose that “Jack Monroe” will try to leverage whatever she can to stay in the public eye to some extent, as with her unexplained appearance on BBC Question Time recently, and she needs that public exposure, if only to keep onside the hard core of donor-mugs who are each sending her between £3.50 and £44 a month via Patreon— 411 utter mugs as of today.

Britain 2023, where Max Hastings looks like the most principled journalist imaginable…a measure of either how Hastings has grown since he covered the Vietnam War in the late 1960s, or of how far British public life has slid into the mire in more recent decades.

If mortgage rates continue to rise, there will be a rather British non-violent political upheaval. There must be millions of people who do not really “own their own home” as they think they do, because they have a mortgage on the property.

I have just seen a statistic which claims that nearly 28% of the UK population are homeowners without a mortgage or loan against the property, while nearly 38% are “homeowners” but with a mortgage or other loan against the property (I presume that the remaining ~34% are either renters or are too young to take title to real property).

38%. That means, in theory, 38% of the voters, too.

People may not like or trust the Labour Party or the LibDems (or others), but the Conservative Party has been in power since 2010. If mortgage rates continue to rise, there will be a backlash against the Conservative Party not seen even in 1997.

Another, and this time not very inventive “Jack Monroe” lie, that reporters and stray peasants are besieging her home. She must have lifted that from the life of van Gogh.

“Jack Monroe” is so patently fake that it defies belief, and a huge number of stupid mugs still fall for her nonsense.

Venn diagram of “Jack Monroe” mug-supporters: 1. comfortably-off Guardian-reading virtue-signalling naifs (mostly aged 55+); 2. the mentally-unwell; 3. the LGBTQXYZ crowd on Twitter.

“Jack Monroe” works on the —often-true— assumption that the public cannot check up on the veracity of her stories (mostly a pack of lies) and that most “journalists” (scribblers) are too lazy to check.

At least it is not radioactive, yet.

The Americans know that even a limited Russian nuclear strike on the US mainland would send their whole society into freefall. Many of their cities are already powder kegs ready to blow. Racial and social war is just below the surface.

Even discounting the obvious propagandistic element (in which all the main parties of WW2 indulged), the film is interesting. I was always struck by how healthy most of those released from German camps looked, as seen in Allied, not in German, films.

They all look healthy, not starved, and in fact quite normal physically.

As of today, a hard core of 411 utter mugs are still sending “Jack Monroe” between £3.50 and £44 a month via Patreon. For (literally) jack s**t.

Even at the lowest level of “patronage”, that comes to £1438.50 a month, in cash. If all the mugs are giving £5 a month, the total would be £2,055 a month; at £10 each, £4,110 a month. In the admittedly unlikely case that all the mugs are giving £44 each, that would add up to over £18,000 a month. My guess? She is getting about £5,000 a month in cash from her mug-base.

I blogged years ago about how, when I was at the old Warsaw airport in December 1988 (quite nice— white marble floors and oriental-style carpets in the cafe), waiting for a late flight to London, I got talking to the only other person there, a youngish American (I suspect, Jew) wearing an overcoat and hat (there was snow on the ground outside the terminal). It turned out that he was the Newsweek correspondent for Eastern Europe, which meant everywhere from the West German frontier to the Soviet one, and south/southeast as far as the Black Sea and Adriatic.

That young or youngish person, maybe late twenties, covered the waterfront of Central and Eastern Europe from Bonn, of all places. I quickly established that I, myself only an occasional visitor to places such as Poland, nonetheless knew far more about the situation there than he did, yet his magazine (and so all its readers) relied on him for accurate reportage. Enlightening.

American news magazines are pretty poor; the best was probably the one to which I used to subscribe when in the USA in the early 1990s, U.S. News and World Report. That magazine ceased print publication long ago.

The engineer battalions of the 33rd Mechanized and 47th Assault Brigades, the lead formations in Ukraine’s 2023 counteroffensive, suffered heavy equipment losses in their assault just south of Mala Tokmachka last week.

The losses include at least five of the battalions’ specialized engineering vehicles. Fitted with mineplows and minerollers, these vehicles lead tanks and infantry fighting vehicles through minefields, plowing and rolling a path so the tanks and IFVs can break through enemy defenses.

The Russian air force moreover has control of the air over the southern front line and has been able to fly back-to-back sorties with attack helicopters and fighter-bombers—a critical advantage that Ukraine’s ground-based air-defenses haven’t been able to blunt.

No-one, of course, suggests that Johnson simply be shot. Everyone these days is running too scared of the UK’s emerging toytown police state dystopia, its poundland-KGB police, and its risible “anti-terror” snoopers and prosecutors. I cannot, however, think of a suitable punishment for Johnson. In any case, while he is far less honest, honourable and worthy even than his former colleagues in the Westminster monkeyhouse, from the straight political point of view he is no worse than many of them.

Looks as if Carol Vorderman has come to the same conclusion as me, i.e. that the elevation is a giant “F.U.” to Parliament and public alike.

Some woman called Charlotte Owen, apparently once “assistant” to Boris Johnson, is to be likewise elevated, at the early age of 29. Does that reward merit, or supine mediocrity (or worse)? I wonder.

I notice that Ben Houchen, once seen as a potential political star, has likewise been elevated. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Houchen. A consolation prize, I suppose, for losing out on a Parliamentary seat now that the fortunes of the Conservative Party are diving in the opinion polls.

One cannot expect loyalty or even basic decency from most people. When I was disbarred (wrongfully and actually unlawfully) in 2016, some 8 years after I had ceased Bar practice, and by reason of a malicious and contrived complaint by a pack of Jews, not one member of the Bar spoke up either to support me or to defend the principles of free speech and freedom of expression. The days of the free and fearless independent Bar of England have long gone. All that remains is a mass of craven careerists, fearful that “the authorities” (suborned by the Jew/Israel lobby) will look unfavourably upon them, and/or that Jewish solicitors will blackball them in terms of giving them work.

Liz Truss was last night at the centre of an extraordinary row after the Government demanded she pay more than £12,000 following the disappearance of items including bathrobes and slippers from her grace-and-favour country home.

The Cabinet Office was told by staff at the house that items such as towelling robes and even slippers vanished during that period, and have asked her to cover the cost.

‘They have also objected to the idea that the taxpayer should foot the bill for what were basically a series of summer parties, and say she owes more than £12,000 for it.’

In December, The Guardian reported that traces of a suspected Class-A drug were found at Chevening after the parties – which Ms Truss has said is ‘categorically untrue’.

The newspaper said members of staff twice found traces of white powder in a games room, after nights where Ms Truss was known to have entertained guests. The workers claimed they tested the powder with a swab which changes colour when it comes into contact with cocaine, and got a positive result.

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2023/apr/30/anthony-seldon-boris-johnson-at-10-biography-interview

Of the 57 people who have held the highest office, Seldon suggests, Johnson was probably unique in that he came to it with “no sense of any fixed position. No religious faith, no political ideology”. His only discernible ambition, Seldon says, was that “like Roman emperors he wanted monuments in his name”.

I suppose at least Cummings did believe in Brexit, although ultimately, really, did he?” he says. “From everything we heard [for the book] it just seemed Cummings was full of hatred. He probably hates himself; he certainly hates other people. He wants to destroy everything. Johnson in his own way never knew what he stood for, but he shared that contempt for the Tory party, contempt for the cabinet, contempt for the civil service, contempt for the EU, contempt for the army, contempt for business, contempt for intellectuals, contempt for universities.

About a decade ago, Seldon, who is a governor of the Royal Shakespeare Company, began an informal programme with David Cameron’s government that sought to provide for the present incumbents of the highest office some history of No 10 itself and their predecessors there. He staged a series of talks from prominent historians, as well as performances of Shakespeare in the rose garden, in the belief that politicians “might root themselves in the arts, in the benchmark of what is good and true”. He recalls a performance that the RSC gave for Cameron and guests just before the former resigned as prime minister: “It was quite a moving occasion in the garden. The killing of Caesar was one of the scenes and I remember watching Cameron with his daughter leaning on his shoulder and Samantha next to him.”

When Johnson came to power Seldon hoped the programme might continue – Johnson did after all have a lucrative contract to write a book about Shakespeare. There was no interest whatsoever. “Covid made things difficult obviously,” he says, “but we did come in. Johnson never once showed up. As [his school reports showed] he had no deep interest in any classical history, language or literature or Shakespeare. His examples were always for show. At his heart, he is extraordinarily empty. He can’t keep faithful to any idea, any person, any wife.”

On this day a year ago

From the newspapers

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11864625/Putins-martyr-complex-control-unleash-nuclear-weapons-think-tank-warns.html

Vladimir Putin‘s ‘martyr complex’ is so out of control there is a risk he will embolden Russia to use nuclear and chemical weapons, a think tank has warned – amid rising concerns over the Kremlin’s ‘hysteric rhetoric’.

A new report published by the US think tank Heritage Foundation has highlighted a growing risk the Russian president will ‘make one of the most fateful decisions of the century’ in the face of his faltering invasion of Ukraine.

The study, named The US and Its Allies Must Understand and Respond to Russia’s Nuclear Threats, explores the actual likelihood that Putin will turn to using weapons of mass destruction.

Russian generals are understood to have discussed the use of tactical nuclear weapons in November, but is said to be cautious about the use of long-range weapons.

However, Russia has ‘increasingly portrayed the West as an enemy and appears to now accept tactical strategic nuclear weapons as an option for deterring further escalation of combat.

The country is understood to have between 1,000 and 2,000 nuclear weapons of varying sizes.

The use of such weapons is seen by Western nations as a last resort, but the report states Russia may turn to  tactical nuclear weapons ‘early in the exercise or at mid-point’.

The report outlines four situations in which Putin would turn to nuclear weapons; pre-empting an attack on Russia; use against Russia; a threat, such as a cyberattack on Russia’s command-and-control systems; and an existential threat to Russia from conventional or nuclear weapons.

It says: ‘Russia has failed to defeat the Ukrainian military and is now focusing on forcing the capitulation of the civilian population by attacking electricity and water supplies. 

‘It is therefore plausible that Russia will not only threaten to use, but actually use, a weapon of mass destruction to target civilian resistance in Ukraine. 

‘Russia is focusing on destroying Ukraine’s power infrastructure, and with the nuclear industry now producing around 60 percent of pre-war power, a Russian attack on nuclear power stations to cut off electricity and create an improvised nuclear incident is a real prospect.’

It has also warned that the use of chemical weapons against metro stations in eastern Ukraine would be ‘devastating’. 

The report cites the use of chemical weapons in Syria as evidence of Russia’s willingness.

It has also highlighted Russia’s efforts to ‘weaponise refugees’ and create mass flows of people into Western countries to the point they become ‘overwhelmed’.”

[Daily Mail]

The growing escalation by the NWO (NATO etc) is concerning; the flow of advanced weapons to the Kiev regime, together with ammunition, non-military aid, and cash.

If I had to guess, I should put the chance of the use of tactical nuclear weapons in Ukraine by the Russian side at about 30%, depending on how the war goes in the next few months. Any chance of Crimea being lost would make their use almost inevitable, but that raises the question of where such weapons might be used— on the battlefield, or against cities? Could Kiev be completely flattened? If so, what would be the NATO (US) response? All-out strategic response? Unlikely but not impossible. Limited but major conventional response? Maybe, but probably not. Nothing much? Possibly.

Russia would not hold back if subjected to serious or sustained Kiev-regime attack on its own unquestioned territory, eg in Central Russia.

As to a full strategic nuclear exchange between NATO and Russia in general, my view would be that that is at present no more than a 5% chance, but that is a very pessimistic assessment. Horses win at 20/1 all the time.

Ukrainian soldiers have painted a bleak picture of their on-going defence of Bakhmut, the small eastern city that has become the target of Europe’s bloodiest infantry battle since the Second World War.

Kyiv‘s soldiers have said they knew they were being sent to their deaths when they were given the orders to go to the city, and admitted they are ‘just getting killed’.

Would that, and the whole situation around that, have been seen or even conceivable in the 1980s, 1990s, even a decade ago? I think not. The West is not, mainly, being pressured by outside forces, but is falling apart internally. Maybe that is often the way of things, thinking of the Roman Empire, the gradual collapse of Sovietism etc.

Like a scene from Stalingrad in 1942/1943. War is hell.

It has been clear from the start, over a year ago, that the Americans have been feeding a large amount of direct battlefield intelligence from satellites etc to the forces of the Kiev regime. Had that not been so, the Russian forces would have had greater success in the field.

This comes close to the USA being a direct participant in the war. Madness.

The finance-capitalist system is inherently unstable, and linked in such a way that (as with an uncontrolled reaction in a nuclear power station) panic a fear creates an unstoppable or almost unstoppable momentum.

Imagine though, if a banking sector collapse internationally co-incided with a European war beyond the Ukraine borders. That could be the trigger for a social-national and pan-European upsurge across the continent, enabling the extermination of evil powers and person, and also the foundation of a new and better society in the long term.

More thoughts around Russia and Ukraine

The missing factor on the Russian side, domestically, is real determination on the part of the ordinary population. That would change if any one of two things were to happen: a direct conventional-arms attack (by Ukraine or its Western quasi-allies and backers) on any major Russian city, or a large incursion onto unambiguously Russian territory by forces of the Kiev regime (or foreign forces).

Either of those two events would probably trigger a large scale and probably (tactical-) nuclear response by the Russian leadership.

Russia values Kiev as one of the birthplaces of the Russian state [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kievan_Rus%27], and I think that the leadership will try to capture the city intact, if possible, but if the Russian leadership felt that the Russian state itself were in existential peril, their response might be to destroy Kiev rather than face extinction as a state, as a people (a collection of peoples, but Russified and Russophone), and as a distinct European/Eurasian culture.

David Icke

Ha ha! I can vaguely remember David Icke reading out the football results on — was it Southern TV? Wikipedia says BBC, so maybe BBC South— sometime around 1980 or so. Not that I would have been interested anyway.

I did not hear of David Icke again until 1990 or 1991 (looking at his Wikipedia entry, maybe the latter year), when I returned one time from the USA, and a friend mentioned as an example of something or other “David Icke“, and I replied “who?” (I had forgotten the name of the young man reading out the sports news a decade before). My friend laughed and said “you must be the only person in England who has not heard of David Icke!“. At that time, he was completely unknown in America.

A few years later, September 1994, I was invited as a birthday surprise by another friend to what turned out to be David Icke speaking at the Wigmore Hall in Marylebone, London, only a short taxi ride from where I then lived in Little Venice.

A quite good and very impassioned speaker, and dressed —if I recall aright— in his famous purple tracksuit, Icke was introduced by a remarkably attractive woman (about 35-40) who said that he was something like “the greatest thinker of our time“. I found that his speech did not quite live up to that billing, but was all the same interesting. My friend also bought me, as a birthday present, a signed copy of The Robot’s Rebellion from the stall in the foyer.

Icke used to follow my Twitter account (and I think that he was only following about 100-200 other people and organizations, so he must be rather perceptive!…). That ended when a pack of Jews had me expelled from Twitter in 2018. Icke himself was (as I had predicted would happen) expelled from Twitter later (by the same or similar Jews), but is now back: https://twitter.com/davidicke.

I would not endorse everything that Icke says or has said, but much of what he says is correct, and has been proven to be, e.g. the following:

Why do we play a part in suppressing alternative information to the official line of the Second World War? How is it right that while this fierce suppression goes on, free copies of the Spielberg film, Schindler’s List, are given to schools to indoctrinate children with the unchallenged version of events. And why do we, who say we oppose tyranny and demand freedom of speech, allow people to go to prison and be vilified, and magazines to be closed down on the spot, for suggesting another version of history.

— And the Truth Shall Set You Free (1995)[9]

[see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Icke].

Of course the “usual” (((usual))) influence has contaminated Wikipedia, so its “facts” in respect of anything such as Jews, the “holocaust” farrago, and the Second World War, Hitler etc, are often not true facts at all.

Icke’s son, Gareth Icke, is now following somewhat in his father’s footsteps: see https://twitter.com/garethicke.

Some recent tweets by David Icke:

The apparently intermittent dementia of the US President at such a time is more than concerning. Stupidity played a large part in the unwanted (by most people) start of the two really major wars of the 20thC; will actual dementia play a part in the start of the next such war?

Ironic. The same sort of people who are forever tweeting (or spouting on (((TV))) and in the (((Press))) about how Britain fought off German invasion in the early 1940s —and leaving the argument about that aside— are usually “refugees welcome” dimwits who want the UK to be a dustbin for the whole world. At present, they are certainly succeeding. I wonder whether they will like the eventual results (to them personally, as well) of their virtue-signalling “activism”?

The tree vandalism is appalling. I know Armada Way, which is a long and mainly traffic-free avenue connecting the central part of Plymouth to the famous Plymouth Hoe where Drake played bowls before defeating the Spanish Armada in the late 16thC.

The bit of Armada Way where I often was has thankfully been spared the axe, and is closer to the centre of the city. I often appeared at the County Court there (the building also contains the rather busy Plymouth Crown Court).

[the very 1950s (though actually built 1963) frontage of Plymouth County Court]

Plymouth could be a fantastic city, with its water frontage, and its rural hinterland, but somehow isn’t. It has problems of crime, drugs, drunkenness etc, and the local council is completely incompetent. I used to park at the very top of a multistorey car park quite near the court building. The Plymouth Council owned that car park. In about 6 years of parking there (about once every couple of weeks), the lift worked once, I think. Once out of 100-200 times. A small example but, I think, telling.

Plymouth Council is riddled with both freemasonry and Common Purpose, so often the nests of the mediocre. As with other councils with those characteristics, such as Birmingham, Plymouth Council is both incompetent and corrupt.

Incidentally, if anyone wonders why I always parked on the open top floor of that car park (about 10 storeys high) despite knowing that the lift would almost certainly be inoperative, well, there are a number of reasons. I like being able to park where there is always a spot, in a space almost always free of any other cars, not having to bother with other cars’ owners, people parking or leaving etc. In fact, about the only time I ever saw another car up there, it turned out to be that of a rather attractive lady barrister I knew slightly from court, Rebecca something-or-other. Secondly, I enjoyed the view. Thirdly, it is my long-held habit— I always park at the top of multi-storey car parks.

Disgraceful. Government, central and local, must step in, but it abdicated its responsibilities years ago. Buy to let and other similar forms of exploitation have to be stopped.

Escalation.

Sweden should have the sense to stay neutral. Such support comes close to abandoning neutrality.

As for Poland and its leadership, I can only think of Hegel, who wrote that “the lesson of history is that people do not learn the lessons of history” (may not be exact quotation, but near enough).

Late tweets

So the “Conservative” Party panel of Uxbridge and South Ruislip have reselected a part-Jew who was born in New York City, brought up in the USA and Belgium mainly (except when at Eton and Oxford), who did time (a few weeks) on a kibbutz in Israel, who describes himself as “Zionist“, and who has a long history of disgraceful and dishonest conduct in his personal life, as a journalist of sorts, as MP, as Cabinet minister, and finally as Prime Minister?

What am I missing? Not that he is some kind of great brain, as once was thought by easily-fooled people. As for real intellect and culture, forget it.

Still, at least it looks as if his time as MP is very limited, if the opinion polls can be believed:

Unfortunately, instead of being put up against a wall and shot, the bastard is going to make millions out of memoirs, speeches, after-dinner ramblings etc.

Interesting to see. One of the worst aspects (culturally) of the Ukraine conflict is the ghastly music (I do not know what it is called), a kind of (?) Slavonic “rap”, and played constantly by both sides. At least the “turbofolk” played during the Yugoslav/Balkan war(s) was not completely offensive to the ear.

Well, not quite as bad, anyway…

The Russian equivalent of turbofolk (I think it can be called…apologies to any musical experts reading), which I well remember from when I was in Kazakhstan (1996-1997):

The Guardian that became a cheerleader for the 2020-2021 police-state “Covid” measures: “lockdowns”, facemask nonsense, and Boris-idiot’s own contribution, the ridiculous “Rule of Six”.

Well-meaning silliness. Mikolaiv, or Nikolayev, will probably fall back under Russian control before very long; after that, I expect that Russian authorities will rebuild the city.

Incidentally, the Danish Ambassador and his government might be better advised to use their time, money, and power to prevent Denmark being further swamped by non-European savages.

I am willing to accept that the Ambassador’s own motives are probably reasonably good or charitable, but this is wrongheaded. Better to stop funnelling arms to the corrupt and vicious Jewish regime in Kiev, which merely prolongs a war Russia cannot lose.

When I had a Twitter account, pre-2019, I did what I could to tweet in support of those trying to save the trees of Sheffield, which was and maybe still is one of the top few UK cities with the most tree cover. The (Labour) council was, maybe (?) still is a disgrace. Those responsible for the vandalism should be punished, one way or the other.

So Russian people (again, as I predicted a year ago) are scarcely affected directly by EU or US sanctions. Quelle surprise...

God, the part-Jew element really comes out in her gestures and facial expressions; as much as with, in fact actually more than, the two fully-Jewish journalists questioning her. That aside, the sheer entitlement of the bitch, not to mention her brother and father.

Apparently, wife-beating Stanley Johnson “deserves” a knighthood because he has spent half a century in (and for much of that time paid by) the Conservative Party, and because he spent 17 equally well-paid years in the European Commission, supposedly dealing with “the environment”.

Personally, I think that all the Johnsons “deserve”, not honours but a good kicking (followed by a trip to, and up against, the wall).

The honours system is now totally ridiculous anyway, but while it exists it is more than irritating to see (e.g.) Stanley Johnson get a knighthood, or Nadine Dorries, that dishonest and stupid creature, get a peerage (as rumoured).

Well, shithead (Hancock), come and get me, if you dare…

[a word of advice and warning of my own, though: I am extremely impecunious, own no real property, and therefore cannot be sued successfully in that sense].

[I might add that, as a former barrister (wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred in 2016 as a result of a Jewish conspiracy), I am still reasonably conversant with the law of defamation]

Still, if you want to waste the £400,000 you “earned” by clowning around on I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, I am easy enough to locate].

Who knows, to be targeted by shithead Hancock and his (I hope) very expensive lawyers for expressing my honest opinion (etc), or reposting the opinion of others, might be the projection into the public realm that I need (politically).

As a matter of interest, did Hancock ever sue anyone over that poster or tweet? I think not, and about 10 months has now elapsed. In fact, I read recently that Hancock himself was in process of being sued in libel (by Andrew Bridgen MP).

Many facing just criticism (eg “Bootstrap Cook” poverty “cosplay” performance artist and “grifter”, “Jack Monroe”) threaten libel suits. Few follow through, and even fewer actually succeed; and fewer yet live to collect: look at McAlpine— his superficially “successful” libel suit finished him off: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McAlpine_v_Bercow; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alistair_McAlpine,_Baron_McAlpine_of_West_Green. He died only months after getting the money.

Something similar happened to the freemason and Allied war criminal “Lord Aldington” (Toby Low): see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toby_Low,_1st_Baron_Aldington; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toby_Low,_1st_Baron_Aldington#Libel_case; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Keelhaul.

Hancock was never in any way qualified to be more than a backbench MP, if that. A nasty and incompetent little careerist.

Little Matt Hancock now has more to worry about than people mocking him on Twitter etc.

I first assessed Hancock in 2019: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/09/09/deadhead-mps-an-occasional-series-the-matt-hancock-story/ (with updates). I think that my assessment, like all others written by me, has proven accurate over time.

So…Hancock up against the wall, along with his complicit “ho” Gina Something-or-other-foreign, also the rest of the then Cabinet, not forgetting “Professor” Ferguson and the rest of the “SAGE” manipulators, and many others.

This was never one of my areas of law when I was a practising barrister, but I hope that Maugham is, on this occasion, correct.

Those of us, at first a tiny minority, who realized that the “Covid” scare was, 95% of it anyway, just that, a scare (and a deliberately manufactured one at that) were called “conspiracy theorists” or, simply, “Covidiots” by the mainstream media, the “me too” groupthink Twitter mob etc; almost all of the Jew lobby too.

Well, who are the “Covidiots” now?…

That kind of thing fooled millions. I myself recall, when the panic was at its height, and when supermarkets were only allowing people in slowly, 6 feet apart (which itself was a nonsense, because once inside, the distances reduced to a foot or so), the line of glum shoppers would be monitored and supervised by black-clad Handmaid’s Tale “militia”. Some of those jobsworths (at the local Waitrose) even had the words “National Security” emblazoned on the back! I believe that the appropriate Internet phrase would be “ROFL“, or maybe “PMSL“.

In fact, I recall one of those “militia” idiots saying to a pro-lockdown (etc) dork ahead of me in the queue that he had “lost” one of his close family members “to Covid“. As we now know, that almost must have been a lie, or at least a mistake, but the “militiaman” seemed to be genuinely angry that anyone even might question the “Covid” narrative (in that case, though, not me but some earlier-in-line dissident).

Oh well, most security guards are scarcely likely to be anywhere near the top of the IQ range, but it still proves how powerfully the “Covid propaganda worked on the masses.

Reminiscent of those Jews who pretend to be terribly angry and upset about “holocaust” “denial” (investigation and revision of previously-accepted historical narratives) because they “lost family members“. They are, of course, referring to people they never knew, and who died long before the former were even born. Ersatz emotion(alism).

Those of us who stood up for freedom and truth during the “Covid” “panicdemic” can now feel justly proud, or at least fully-vindicated.

As for the rest, the “sheeple” if you like, well they have moved on, and are now nodding in unison and saying “me too” to other narratives, particularly “Ukraine” (meaning support, or at least “slacktivism” on Twitter, for the regime of the Jew Zelensky and his corrupt, shambolic, and yet dictatorial regime).

You still see the odd loony wearing a facemask. I saw one today in fact. About 90, and shuffling around Waitrose in her filthy disposable mask (probably worn by her for the past 3 years…).

For once, I agree with every word said there by Julia Hartley-Brewer.

Many a true word spoken in jest“, and if that was not so a year or two ago, it probably will be so in another few years.

A comment from a reader of the Daily Mail as to why trickster Hancock released the WhatsApp messages:

JonnyRed, Worcester, United Kingdom, 13 hours ago

Totally….its leading us down the path to ushering in the handing over of sovereignty to the WHO and their pandemic treaty having total control of 194 countries. A certain Mr Blair and Mr Hague are leading the charge on this. Ultimately it will lead to digital identity and currency, digitilized health with mandated vaxxines.”

Both true, i.e. it is true that Labour ministers under Blair (notably the Jews, Barbara Roche and Phil Woolas) wanted to flood Britain with immigrants in order, quite specifically (as as leaks proved) to ruin the white Northern European demographic of the UK. However, it is also true that the “Conservative” governments since 2010 have also, in effect, encouraged the migration invasion. Why? See below.

Google “Coudenhove- Kalergi Plan”…

Yvette Cooper is not only a proven expenses cheat and fraudster but also, more importantly, a would-be “woke” dictator and puppet of the Jewish lobby.

Incidentally, I see on Twitter, supporting Labour and Yvette Cooper, one “@Supertanskiii”. Seems to be another “grifter” in the mould of “Jack Monroe” and others.

In the case of “Supertanskiii”, though, she does not even offer ghastly food recipes in return for monies sent to her by mugs. Why do people do that (send money to those who offer not even original or interesting ideas)? For “Supertanskiii”, I suppose that it is just an easy way to make a modest living— just mouth off on Twitter against “the Tories” several times a day. The mugs love that…

She does also offer cod-“analysis”, i.e. pretty much repeating whatever the Labour Party is saying at any given moment. Seems to have about 5-10 different people each day donating small sums to her, maybe about £50 a day in toto, at a guess.

It might be argued that the critics are now “kicking ‘Jack Monroe’ when she is down”, but I think that there are two counter-arguments to be made: first, she still has 479 utter mugs paying her a total of between (about) £1,800 and (about) £20,000 each and every month via Patreon.

Secondly, if the critics keep kicking her, maybe the msm enablers of this fraud (those still promoting her—if any are left) will awaken and thus prevent more naive and innocent victims from being scammed.

Bakhmut/Artyomovsk situation

If that figure of 20,000 Kiev-regime fighters is correct, then if they are killed or captured, that would be a very significant success for the Russian side. If...

Yesterday, the Russian forces seemed to be in the ascendant. Now— uncertain.

Well, I have to say that that is more impressive than any of the bureaucrat-statements I have heard broadcast from the senior Russian Army officers.

If that statement is taken at face value, Prigozhin has more courage than most of the Russian leadership put together.

I wonder whether the Russian Army and/or GRU are stabbing Prigozhin and Wagner Group in the back. If so, at least if using the terms broadly, that would be, in the circumstances, both sabotage and treason.

“Fog of war”. What is really happening?

In a way, remarkable that the Russians plan to restore and rebuild in regions still part of an active war zone.

Like a scene from Stalin’s day, during the Yezhovshchina or other of the Soviet purges.

So much for “free, democratic” Ukraine and its “human rights”. One word out of place, and civilians get arrested by a goon squad. The regime of the Jew Zelensky is a corrupt and tyrannical kleptocracy.

People in the USA, UK, and across mainland Europe are also starting to turn off from the war, especially now that it is obvious that the Zelensky cabal has no intention of negotiating. Not “Russian propaganda”, incidentally; Zelensky and others have admitted it outright.

UK domestic politics

According to Electoral Calculus, and depending on tactical voting etc, that would give the Labour Party a Commons majority of between 398 and 415. It would leave the Conservative Party with between 20 and 40 seats.

All that, and then also— the person posing as Prime Minister is an Indian money-juggler…

The “Westminster Bubble” is an Augean Stables situation, needing to be cleansed.

We cannot, today, simply put most of the MPs and fake “peers” up against a wall (as they deserve). The first step to saving this country and getting rid of the broken Britain superimposed on it, is to destroy the two main System parties, and the immediate necessity is to destroy the Conservative Party. Once that happens, and Labour has a huge Commons majority, it will start to do things which will create pushback. Without a fake “Opposition”, the people will perforce turn to a new party, and/or deal with the anarchic mess in other ways.

Look at these idiotic tweets:

11 points, and I can say that I still agree with every one of them…
