Saturday quiz

Today a narrow win over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 5/10; I got 6/10. A couple were guesses, and I did not know the answers to questions 5, 7, 9, and 10.

The Kiev-regime fake “state” of Ukraine is rotten in every way. As for Denmark, well, everyone knows the famous comment in Hamlet

I have to agree with Goodwin. Were Farage to accomplish a tenth of what Hitler or Mussolini did before the Second World War, he would be able to feel proud of his record in office (assuming that Farage ever holds senior political office).

“Boris”-idiot is a clown, albeit a sinister one. Only a very decadent country would allow such a person to be an ordinary MP, let alone Cabinet minister or —a fortiori— Prime Minister. I said all that on the blog at the relevant time(s) and also —prior to being expelled from Twitter in 2018 at the instigation of a conspiratorial pack of Jews— on my then Twitter account.

Jewish hypocrite Kamm is only a “free speech absolutist” in his own mind, or superficially; he simply prefers to have speech censored quietly. He is very odd, and has tweeted against me in the past. See also the following post, in which I examine the links between and among those with mental conditions, Jew-Zionists, and “antifa” types (some individuals are all three) :

[Update, 12 October 2025: the tweet remarked upon has been deleted, it seems]

Symptom of national decline and decadence: that Bacon person dropped out of some Nottinghamshire polytechnic, was eventually taken on by the BBC and others, has probably been hugely overpaid, and now lives in the USA with his wife (daughter of a former Barclays Bank chairman). An alcoholic, as well.

He (of whom I had never heard until today) has nothing at all interesting to say about this country.

Involved with an Israeli media company: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keshet_International.

I expect that that “barney farmer” tweeter imagines that his tweet is a logical exposition instead of being, as it is, utter nonsense.

The trail will lead either to Israel, or to “Israel-in-the-UK”, i.e. the occupied areas of North and North-West London.

In theory, Turkey has the means to invade and roll over Israel, but has no particular motive to do so.

Dig deep, deep.

Israel is not merely a state in the Middle East; it is also the centre of a worldwide web.

[“Russia has measures to combat American Tomahawk missiles, said the first deputy chairman of the State Duma Defense Committee, Alexey Zhuravlyov. “For every Tomahawk, we will have our own S-350 systems, which, as is known, were designed to fight this type of missile. For air defense, this is not a difficult target, which was well studied back in the Soviet Union era. The other thing is that they can be armed with nuclear warheads, and that, excuse me, is a completely different level of combat โ€” the OSU can install all sorts of things there,” said Alexey Zhuravlyov. The State Duma deputy and chairman of the Rodina party says it is well known that the USA always retains control over these systems even before the improved Tomahawk missile and never hands it over to NATO allies.”]

Ursula von der Leyen is an evil little sprite.

The rise of Reform UK in Wales

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/nov/26/more-straight-talking-how-reform-uk-is-picking-up-support-in-wales

“Crossing Gwent Square on a cold, crisp day in Cwmbran, married couple Maxine and David Griffin have more in common with each other than they did a year ago.

In July, the Brexit supporters voted for the Reform UK party in the constituency of Torfaen; it was the first time they had both voted for the same party.

Maxine, 52, who works in a cafe, had previously voted Conservative, while her husband, 55, a postal worker and union representative, had always voted Labour.

Lack of faith in politics is a running theme among the voters the Guardian interviewed; the vast majority said they would not vote for any party.

But of those who would vote, Reform UK supporters were easy to find.

A poll by Survation, commissioned by Reform UK, put the party at 20% in a Senedd election โ€“ ahead of the Conservatives at 17%, but behind Labour at 30%.

A separate unaffiliated poll by Opinium, which was based on Westminster voting intentions, suggested 26% of voters in Wales would vote Reform compared with 24% who would vote Labour…

[Guardian]

Worth reading, not least because a similar trend may be seen in England as well.

News from the migration invasion

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/nov/26/final-asylum-seekers-have-now-left-the-bibby-stockholm

“Final asylum seekers have now left the Bibby Stockholm

Most claims from 400 men on vessel moored in Portland, Dorset have been processed, with majority accepted.

Home Office team has been processing claims from the 400 men housed on the boat. A significant majority are understood to have been granted asylum and most are expected to leave the area for accommodation elsewhere. About eight were left on the vessel when the final residents departed on Tuesday.

The local council has said that none of the men moved from the vessel will be based in other accommodation in Dorset, with reports saying they are likely to be moved to other areas including Cardiff and Wolverhampton.

[Guardian]

So there it is. Exactly what I predicted would happen not only in relation to that barge, but also in relation to the invasion as a whole— “processing” (rubberstamping) quietly happening, with about 90% of the “asylum-seekers” allowed to stay in the UK. The rest? Still allowed to stay until removed (which will never happen to the refused individuals, or 90% of them, under System government, as now under Starmer-Labour).

That’s the way Starmer operates— dishonestly, sneakily, and against the interests of the British people. A hateful individual.

In other words, at least 396 of the 400 on that barge will be staying— c.360 because accepted as “genuine” “asylum-seekers”; the other 36 because, though not accepted as genuine even under the UK’s Mickey Mouse immigration laws and rules, they will not be deported. What about the 4 who might be deported (the report implies 8 persons)? Probably willing to go voluntarily, if given a bit of baksheesh and a free ticket.

Incidentally, note in that Guardian report that “a significant majority are understood to have been granted asylum and most are expected to leave the area for accommodation elsewhere“.

So somewhere around 360 or more single men are now going to be given hotel accommodation and, either immediately or before very long, flats or houses that should be going to needy British people. 360 dwelling units.

I don’t want to hear any bs from fake “socialists” about the housing crisis until or unless the same virtue-signallers accept that, without mass immigration, there would be no housing crisis.

The British Economist counted about 100,000 Ukrainian servicemen killed since the beginning of the SMO . In addition, another 400,000 Ukrainian servicemen were seriously wounded. The publication reports that more than 0.5% of Ukraine’s pre-war male population (18-49 years old) died, and “about 5% were either killed or too wounded to fight.” These losses, expressed as a percentage of the population, exceed the number of US deaths in Vietnam and Korea combined and are approaching the level of World War II, The Economist notes.

For several decades after the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 (which gave both sides a shock), there were attempts, partly successful, to reduce the risk of nuclear war between East and West. Now, almost exactly 62 years later, that risk not only remains but is increasing almost daily. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuban_Missile_Crisis.

[1962 CIA estimation of the range of Soviet missiles to be based in Cuba]

Now imagine the reverse: American missiles based in Ukraine, Poland, and other states around Russia.

The present situation is not good, and is worsening. It may only take the events of a single day to destroy most of Europe as we know it; and the events of the same or a second day to destroy large parts of both Russia and North America.

Israel cannot fight on two or three fronts simultaneously.

Imagine that as U.S. President. What were they thinking?

I seem to remember that, when I was last in Moscow (2007), the rouble was about 20 to the U.S. dollar, maybe 25. OK, so now it is over 100 to the dollar. Only a fifth of the value it held in 2007.

True, but things are not quite as simple as that. Most importantly, most Russian people (like most Americans) either do not travel internationally, or do so only to countries where the local currency is itself weak. I myself recall encountering a Russian family on the Aegean coast of Turkey in 2001. At that time, most tourist Russians went to countries such as Turkey, North Cyprus or, even more popular, the Republic of Cyprus in the south of that island.

Even in 2001, most Russians did not travel beyond the borders of the former Soviet Union. Most, the vast majority, now stay at home.

Likewise, most Russians do not buy any imported goods at all, and so are insulated from price increases caused by the decline in value of the rouble.

Those who are most impacted by the fall in the value of the rouble are the wealthy, very wealthy, “oligarchs” etc. However, many of those people are so wealthy that a fall of 4/5ths of the notional value of their (Russia-based) assets is almost unimportant, they have so much money (as is the case with the oil sheikhs and rulers of the Middle East).

On the macro level, the fall in value means that Russian products and produce are price-competitive internationally. In any case, Russia is now doing much, perhaps most, of its trade with the “BRICS” states, not with the EU or North America etc. Sanctions, of course, apply to much of Russia’s pre-2022 trade with the West.

Pro-Kiev regime tweeters on Twitter/X are crowing at the weakness of the rouble, but the noise simply amplifies their own ignorance.

I appeared as Counsel there once (actually a 3-day trial), in early 1994, when it was still Middlesex Guildhall Crown Court. The courtrooms then were very pleasant pre-WW1 panelled rooms, not at all like the —as I now see— fairly bland UK Supreme Court one.

It was my first (and one of few) Crown Court criminal trials, a “section 18” GBH with intent, which carries a maximum life sentence. My defendant, had he been convicted, would have been sentenced, probably, to 5 or 6 years in those days, he having thrown hot oil over the “victim”, then stabbed him twice with a chef’s knife. Happily for him, he was acquitted on self-defence, a result I had thought was a 50-50 possibility, though the defendant himself was sure that he would be going down, and for several years.

I remember it well, not least because a friend at the Bar (who already had a good criminal practice) later remarked, on being told by me that I had done my first full Crown Court trial, resulting in acquittal, “oh, so you got him off?!“, to which I replied, modestly, “well, he got off…“, to which his rejoinder was “no, don’t put yourself down.” Kind words. Actually, I think I did OK, in a rather green sort of way…

Parliamentary petition

It continues to run: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/700143.

Now on 2.8M signatures. It will have no direct effect, and Starmer may well even weasel out of a debate but, from the wider political point of view, it underlines the unpopularity of this ridiculous and nasty “Labour” government.

No need to be “mystified“. There is a transnational conspiracy to import blacks and browns into Europe, especially, arguably, into the UK. The idea was formulated by an evildoer called Coudenhove-Kalergi, and the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan has as its aim the extermination of white Europeans, and their replacement by a mixed white/black/brown population, to be ruled over by Jewish and part-Jewish persons: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan; and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_von_Coudenhove-Kalergi.

Wikipedia may call the belief that the Plan exists, “debunked“, but you have to bear in mind that the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby has a whole programme going to vandalize Wikipedia. The malicious so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] even advertized on its website a few years ago for volunteers with Wikipedia accounts to “edit” (vandalize, change for socio-political reasons) Wikipedia.

Look at the UK Prime Ministers of recent years. “Boris” Johnson, part-European, part-Jew, part Circassian Turk. Theresa May, part-Jewish. David Cameron-Levita, mixed European and Jewish. Look at the recent Conservative Party leadership election. Main candidates who were part-Jewish (Tugendhat), African (Kemi Badenoch), probably European/British but married to a Jewish spouse (Jenrick), mixed European/African (Cleverly). All members of Conservative Friends of Israel.

Indeed, look at Starmer: European (Brit) but married to a Jewish woman; all his Cabinet are members of Labour Friends of Israel.

As to the TV ads promoting mixed-race families etc, I wrote about that on the blog years ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2018/12/10/tv-ads-and-soaps-are-the-propaganda-preferred-by-the-system-in-the-uk/.

The fact is that TV ads of that sort are basically socio-political propaganda; the selling of products is, in reality, secondary. Some companies as good as admit the fact. Look at the recent Jaguar car ad.

Another point is that such ads are not aimed at people of my age (68), or those of 50, 40, or even 30. They are aimed at younger people, and indeed at children, whose critical faculties are unformed, and who, seeing such ads, will come to see (or so the propagandists believe) racial-mixing, and production of mixed-race children, as normal.

“They” bring destruction everywhere.

The human cost of war, perhaps, but is this really a “war”? More like the sadistic crushing of a civilian population by a huge and mechanized machine of destruction. The Gazan civilians are almost defenceless.
