[“Major General of the German Bundeswehr Christian Freuding stated in a widely circulated statement that Moscow is striving to achieve the capability to simultaneously launch 2,000 drones and emphasized that intercepting Shahed-type drones, costing 30,000–50,000 euros each, with Patriot surface-to-air missiles, costing over 5 million euros per unit, is not economically efficient. At the same time, the German general noted that the most effective way to counter Russia is deep retaliatory strikes — on Russian bases, airfields, aircraft, defense factories, and production facilities.“]

Exactly the sort of twit who might trigger a third massive war in Europe, which would leave Germany once again devastated, this time even worse than in the 1940s.

NATO seems to be run these days by know-nothing “chocolate soldiers”.

As Russian forces slowly advance across eastern Ukraine, the Kiev regime is in turmoil. They know they are losing.

More Israeli war crimes.

Well, after Israel is defeated, those brutal and sadistic Israeli Jew military personnel who have targeted women and children must be “tried” and —after a “fair trial”, of course— hanged, as happened after WW2 at Nuremberg and elsewhere. Fair’s fair, after all…

“Deport“? No…I think that a wall and a squad should be able to finish this.

Another one who needs a wall and a squad to finish him off.

I discussed Israel-lobby puppet and fake “conservative”, Iain Dale, on yesterday’s blog. Poses as a political commentator, but knows nothing, just nothing.

“A national embarrassment“? That might be one way to describe Ian Austin himself, a former expenses-cheat MP, nominally “Labour” but “elevated” to the degraded life peerage by “Boris”-idiot.

Austin, a complete puppet of the Israelis and the Jewish lobby, apparently tweeted (I have screenshots, apparently genuine, and blogged using them years ago, and have never been sued, nor even threatened with action, by Austin) to the effect that bestiality pornography should be decriminalized. Hard to believe that he is now in the House of Lords, but that old institution is now so degraded that it really should be shut down.

I blogged about the matter a few times nearly 4 years ago, e.g.

That view of Austin’s was then discussed, sympathetically (!), on Twitter/X, by another Israel-lobby person, the Daily Mail scribbler, Sabrina Miller, who was involved with a few of the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] scams, such as the Mark Lewis/Mandy Blumenthal stunt against black comedian Reginald D. Hunter at the Edinburgh Fringe last year (2024).

In fact, Sabrina Miller went even further than Ian Austin. He “only” wanted to decriminalize bestiality pornography; she thinks that bestiality itself should be decriminalized! See: https://web.archive.org/web/20210608011817/https:/fleajournal.com/summer-2020/rough-why-we-should-legalise-bestiality-wait-hear-me-out-its-not-as-crazy-as-you-think

Sabrina Miller was also one of the Jewish students at Bristol University who contrived to get anti-Israel academic Dr. David Miller sacked from the University (unlawfully, as it turned out; he later recovered substantial damages at an employment tribunal), another “CAA” conspiracy.

Both Reginald D. Hunter and Dr. Miller are now facing a different form of “CAA” scam— private criminal prosecutions. I hope that they not only secure acquittals but also secure substantial costs, as would be their right.

Incidentally, Austin (now, ludicrously, “lord” Austin) took part in conspiratorial discussions over years, trying to have me prosecuted re. my one time Twitter account (it was closed down by Twitter in 2018, at the behest, once again, of the Jewish lobby). He even wrote to the then Director of Public Prosecutions about me, demanding that I be prosecuted. In 2018, apparently. “They” and their puppets hate free speech.

Poundshop police state (and, yes, “they” are behind much of it…)

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/jul/17/armed-police-threatened-to-arrest-kent-protester-for-holding-palestinian-flag

Armed police threatened a peaceful protester with arrest under the Terrorism Act for holding a Palestinian flag and having signs saying “Free Gaza” and “Israel is committing genocide”, accusing her of supporting a proscribed organisation.

In the encounter, which she filmed, one officer told her: “Mentioning freedom of Gaza, Israel, genocide, all of that all come under proscribed groups, which are terror groups that have been dictated by the government.”

He went on to say that the phrase “Free Gaza” was “supportive of Palestine Action”, adding it was an offence “to express an opinion or belief that is supportive of a proscribed organisation, namely Palestine Action is an offence under section 12(1A) of the Terrorism Act”. The officer told her she had committed that offence.

Speaking to the Guardian, Murton said: “I don’t see how anything I was wearing, how anything I was displaying, anything I was saying, could be deemed as supportive of the proscribed group.

“It’s terrifying, I was standing there thinking, this is the most authority, authoritarian, dystopian experience I’ve had in this country, being told that I’m committing terrorist offences by two guys with firearms.”

[Guardian]

I myself have had encounters over the past decade or so with similar woodentops, police “officers” who both over-estimate their own lawful powers and, also, fail even to understand what the relevant law is.

My own encounters had nothing directly to do with Palestine but did have everything to do with malicious Jew-Zionists and Israel fanatics making up contrived and false allegations and complaints. “Slitherman”, of the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, is one of the worst.

Rental property deposits

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2025/jul/20/rental-deposit-scheme-puts-millions-in-the-pockets-of-landlords

Having spent much of my adult life in rental properties (everything from single bedsit rooms to a 26-bedroom historic house occupied only by me, my wife, and one cat), I oppose rental deposits. Completely. I suggest that tenants simply be required to pay an increased rent instead. Somewhere in the region of £5 per week.

As usual, “they” want a great deal more than a pound of flesh…

About 20 months ago, Gazan militants attacked southern Israel. Many Israelis (mostly military-connected, some civilian) were killed, some abducted. Several hundred killed by the militants, with several hundred more killed via Israeli “kill everything” military responses. In round figures, about 1,000 (including Israelis killed by the Israelis themselves).

Since then, the Israeli Jews have killed or seriously wounded, or starved to death etc, or prevented from getting medicines, or even water, about 200,000 Gazans, mostly civilians, mostly women and children. The Israeli Jewish “soldiers” have deliberately killed, or sadistically maimed, small children lining up to get water and/or food for their families.

What can anyone say about an evil tribe that does that?

Also, what about the surreal disproportion? 200 to 1.

One thing we can do in the UK is to get rid of politicians in the pay of the Israel lobby, in particular Starmer-stein, “Rachel from Accounts” Reeves, Liz Kendall, and Yvette Cooper, all members of Labour Friends of Israel.

There speaks a vocal member of the tribe which invaded Palestine, robbed or stole from the original inhabitants 97% of the land, and which has, in the past 20 months, killed or grievously injured 200,000 people in hugely-disproportionate retaliation for an attack which killed or injured a few hundred Jews.

…and his wife and children (or servants) will not be deliberately shot in the knees or head for the crime of bringing the bastard food and water. cf. Gaza…

Britain was influenced to its massive detriment by the Jew-Zionist lobby (which controlled Churchill). Result? War, devastation across Europe, including parts of the UK, huge loss of life, huge waste of money on war operations, loss of the Empire (part immediately, part over the following years and decades), a great increase in the influence of the Jew-Zionist lobby, and its postwar takeover of much of the Press, radio, TV, the economy etc. Also, the importation of at first hundreds, then thousands, then millions, of non-Europeans.

Life goes on…

Her manner may be hysterical, but her point is valid. Terrible cruelties are still being inflicted on the civilian population of Gaza by the uniformed military forces of the Israeli Jews who, over a century, certainly over the past 80 years, have stolen Palestine.

According to the most fanatical Jew-Zionist organizations in the UK, up to 96% of UK-resident Jews support Israel, and the majority of them even support what is being done in Gaza.

Why “always support doctors“? They vary much in their abilities and attitudes. As for the ridiculously high pay (£3,000 for one shift), in 2006 or 2007 I was briefed to represent a crap Dutch locum hospital doctor (and not a “consultant”) at Cambridge County Court. His NHS pay for a single shift had been over £600— and that was nearly 20 years ago, so you could certainly double or even triple that in today’s money. Incidentally, he had been working 6-7 days per week.

Of course, the fanatical Zionist Jews in London, Manchester, Brighton etc will scoff, and say that Gazan people are not suffering much at all. Meanwhile, the very same Jews whine, and claim to be afraid, if they happen to see (or pretend to have seen) a Swastika drawn in chalk on a pavement by children.

Soon Russia will be able to launch over 2,000 of such weapons daily. Such an air fleet will be unstoppable.

If I am not mistaken, “Shahed” means “Martyr” in Arabic.

Thoughts about “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer’s latest nonsense

Starmer has now commented that he may decide to plant British “boots on the ground” in Ukraine. This is a comment which could only be made by someone with no grasp at all of geopolitical realities, and no thought at all for the welfare of the British people.

So what happens if/when serious fighting breaks out between the forces of the Russian Federation and those of the Kiev regime? Presumably, Starmer will want them to fight on the side of the Kiev-regime forces, i.e. against those of the Russian Federation, unless the British forces would just stand there, or retreat westward.

At that point, a NATO nuclear-armed state’s forces would be in direct armed conflict with Russian nuclear-armed forces. What happens when the Brit forces, maybe thousands of them, are destroyed? Send another tranche? How so, when the battle-ready UK Army numbers around 30,000 (some say fewer)?

Has Starmer thought this through? I think not. He’s useless.

Apart from anything else, the Russian Government would inevitably see the presence of NATO troops in Ukraine, whether designated as “peacekeeping forces” or not, as tantamount to a NATO force in Ukraine and on the side of the Kiev regime.

Madness.

This story just breaking in The Telegraph must spell the end of Lord Hermer’s time as Attorney General. It’s been disclosed Hermer fought for compensation for Mustafa al-Hawsawi , one of the plotters of 9/11 where 2,900 people were killed. Hermer claimed the MoD, MI5 and MI6 were complicit in the torture of Hawsawi who was arrested in Pakistan alongside the 9/11 mastermind in 2003. Hermer started taking the terrorist’s money in 2023. A year later al-Hawsawi pleads guilty to murdering 2,900 people and is sentenced to life meaning life. Let’s get this right. One minute Hermer is accusing the MoD torture the next moment he’s on Labour’s payroll. A total shit. And don’t believe all this tosh about lawyer’s having to take the cab off the rank. As a KC he’s so busy he can pick and choose.who he represents. He chose a terrorist. Says all you need to know about Lord Hermer.

[Kelvin MacKenzie]

Starmer is talking s**t, as usual. Not only would putting UK “boots on the ground” be likely to go very wrong, and potentially lead to a conflict between the UK and Russia, possibly nuclear, but it seems that the quantity and indeed quality of British troops would be inadequate, taking “quality” to include their equipment, arms, armament, air “lift” power etc.

The best soldiers in the world are all but helpless without the right arms, armament, transport, logistics etc. True, in small scale “special forces” situations that is less so, but the Ukrainian theatre is not like that. Do not think Bosnia, Oman, Northern Ireland; think Second World War or, indeed, First World War.

Large armies, large artillery contingents, slugging it out on a vast scale. Even the present overall front-line is something like 900 miles long.

We see retired Brit senior officers saying that the UK government should be doubling military expenditure “to face Russia”. Why? There is actually no need. Russia is only looking (to some) like an adversary because the UK has been backing the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev. Russia would much prefer to have cordial or at least normal relations with the UK.

Even leaving that aside, to scale-up the British armed forces to anything like what would be required to have more than a token effect in Ukraine would take not months but years. Personnel, training, re-equipping, rearming etc. Maybe 5 years.

Where would Britain’s retired senior officers’ new fantasy armies come from? Young people in the UK mostly wish to have nothing to do with anything military or naval, and who can blame them, looking at the increasingly degenerate and shambolic country they live in…

Meanwhile, Britain’s people become poorer by the year, Britain’s road and rail network is not even maintained, for the most part, properly, drug and alcohol abuse is rife, the population is degenerating culturally and ethnically, hutches for migrant-invaders threaten what is left of the green and pleasant land, and idealism (whether real or misplaced), is hard to find.

As Starmer and his advisors scurry to Paris this morning collectively shamed by Washington into finally pulling their finger out on defence, here’s two cold hard realities.

1. The idea of deploying a peacekeeping force to Ukraine is indeed noble. But the UK have four deployable brigades for such a task. These would need to be re-rolled into a coherent entity or BCT, plus a corps level HQ which would be expected by allies. This would exhaust the British Army – with many units up to one third non-deployable. The notion of a 10k UK force I’ve seen doing the rounds is simply laughable. At most, a brigade, and this would exhaust the Army past 18 months (3 rotations).

2. The absolute fallacy of Starmer thinking he can send a credible force – whilst *still* insisting in private he won’t go above 2.65% GDP for defence spending – is utterly shameful. The cost of deploying even one brigade will cost billions extra a year – whilst straining the Army to its seams. To commit UK forces but not be prepared to fund it adequately is shameful, and shows no signs from learning from Iraq and Afghanistan.

[Robert Clark]

Worth noting that. Not that I agree that sending Brit troops to Ukraine is in any way “noble“. We, as Brits, have neither selfish interest nor any moral obligation to do so. “Ukraine” as a state has existed for only 33-34 years, since 1991.

Since then, it has been the most corrupt “state” or quasi-state in Europe. The Kiev regime is not only corrupt but brutal and shambolic. Trade unions are banned, dissidents arrested or even shot or otherwise disposed of. Elections should have been held, at latest, a year ago.

Zelensky and his thieving cabal (with their overseas villas and offshore bank accounts) have stolen literally billions, and rule by decree and brute force. Few Ukrainians volunteer to fight; most, almost all now, are either drafted compulsorily or are pressed into service after having been abducted off the streets.

Moreover, Britain has effectively no historical ties of any substance with the region, and none with Ukraine as a state, because until 1991, Ukraine was merely part of the Soviet Union, and before that part of the Russian Empire.

Starmer and his ludicrous Cabinet of idiots have nothing in the tank. I am not referring only to the armed forces but across the board. They are empty of ideals, ideas, policies, and public support.

It funded the fake “movement” set up to oppose Brexit during the 2016 Referendum, and put in as figurehead that ridiculous “Femi” creature (Femi Oluwole), a loudmouth Nigerian know-nothing who makes a living by occasional TV appearances, online donations, and while living in his parents’ house (they are both NHS consultants): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femi_Oluwole.

Just one example.

My favourite bit from the @JDVance speech

“No voter on this continent went to the ballot box to open the floodgates to millions of unvetted immigrants. But you know what they did vote for? In England, they voted for Brexit. And more and more all over Europe, they are voting for leaders who promise to end to out-of-control migration … I just think people care about their homes. They care about their dreams. They care about their safety & capacity to provide for themselves & their children … Contrary to what you might hear in Davos, citizens don’t think of themselves as educated animals or as interchangeable cogs of a global economy.”

Saturday quiz

Well, this week brings another victory over political journalist John Rentoul, who scored 4/10, a score I trumped with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 3, 7, and 10, though I nearly got no.2, and should have also got right no.7 (but did not).

England’s demographic catastrophe

Almost one-in-three babies born in England and Wales last year were to women born outside the UK.

According to the Office for National Statistics, 31.8 per cent of live births in 2023 were to non-UK born mothers – a slight increase from 30.3 per cent in 2022.

The proportion was also an increase from 26.5 per cent a decade earlier, after passing the quarter mark (25.1 per cent) in 2010.

[Daily Mail]

That does not even include the vast numbers of non-white children born to mothers (and/or fathers) also non-white but themselves born in England.

The truth is that the majority, indeed probably vast majority, of births in England are now non-white.

The UK has no future, no decent future, if this continues.

Diary Blog, 1 March 2023, including thoughts about the BBC “licence fee”

Morning music

On this day a year ago

BBC “licence fee”

The whole idea that people should pay a compulsory “licence fee” (tax), not even for the BBC as such but for simply owning a TV, is completely unjust and also completely antiquated; I had thought it a hangover from the 1950s or even 1930s, but in fact it was introduced (for radio) in 1923! Here we are, a whole century later, and this nonsense still exists (for TV; the radio version was scrapped around 1980).

What does the BBC offer that is different from, let alone better than, other providers? Most of its drama and other offerings are full of politically-correct and tendentious rubbish, and its news broadcastings are System propaganda as boring as Soviet TV. It pays newsreaders half a million a year, and a loudmouth ignoramus ex-football player (Gary Lineker) as much as two million a year. Why? Why does it do that, and why is the public taxed via this “licence fee” (enforced heavily) for something so poor?

In the past, the BBC might claim, at least with some limited credibility (in the 1960s, 1970s) that it offered an, overall, more elevated cultural level than commercial stations (at the time one a couple existed in the UK, of course). That is now certainly not credible. BBC 2 has been very dumbed down over the years, and the only BBC TV channel on a consistently-high cultural level, BBC Four, is going to be closed within a few years.

The licence fee has to be ended, starting with the criminal-law sanctions. The BBC has to have its rice bowl taken away.

Incidentally, I had a now-deceased friend, the Russian language and literature lecturer and translator, and Dostoyevsky expert, Ig Avsey (a good fellow, about whom I have blogged a couple of times), who had a long-running battle with the TV licensing nuisances.

In fact, Ig was a genuine non-licence-needer, in that he actually did have no TV in his house, though he had one in a garden shed, which TV he used solely to watch obscure Russian films and other material, such as Smoktunovsky’s famous “Gamlet” [Hamlet]. I have no idea why the TV was in the shed and not the house. Ig was a considerable eccentric.

After it was realized that Ig had never had a licence, a long correspondence with the licence-enforcers ensued, which lasted for something like 20 years or longer, but he never paid for a “licence”, and (in law) never had to (as far as I know, that TV was not able to receive broadcasts at all).

This whole nonsense of a “licence fee” is just ludicrously out of date.

Helicopter. Ocean. Endex.

More seriously (?), these untermenschen are a total millstone round the necks of our society, which will be unable to progress until it rids itself of them.

Seems to be a trial of strength rather than a fight for somewhere with huge strategic value, unless I have missed something. The Daily Telegraph video shows something closer to the trenches of the First World War than anything else.

The situation in the Bakhmut (former Artyomovsk) area seems unclear. Perhaps the forces of the Kiev regime are fighting there so as not to have to fight for more important places further north or west.

Moldova is not far from being a “failed state” (just like Ukraine).

Ha. Makes me wonder whether the Russian Army should have driven west rather than south…(only joking).

Whatever the rights and wrongs of the current conflict, the fact is that, historically, the Russian people, at their best, have been on a far far higher cultural level than those of Ukraine. You only have to think of the great composers, writers, poets etc.

Neither side in the conflict will negotiate over Crimea, but only fight for it. The population of Crimea is at least 90% Russian, as matters stand.

If Ukrainian (Kiev-regime) forces actually attack Crimea, I think that Kharkov, and possibly Kiev, will face attack on a large scale, and even nuclear annihilation.

I notice that the “Bootstrap Cook” is losing Patreon donors. As of today, “only” 483 sending her between £3.30 and £44 a month, compared to 502 donors (utter mugs) a week ago. If this keeps up, she may eventually have to genuinely live on small amounts of money. Not yet though— 483 donors still means a monthly income, possibly taxfree, of between £1,690 and £21,252 from that source alone.
