Most of the important early “Russian” communists, both Bolshevik and Menshevik, were not Russian at all but Jews or part-Jews. Lenin himself was either half or quarter Jew.
This lesson goes beyond: 'israel' influences every British political party ('ZOG').
It is: if 'israel' didn't exist, we would have independent British parties.

🗣️ “If we beat Labour here in one of their safest seats, then I think the loss will be unbearable”@GoodwinMJ hopes to dispel voter apathy and rouse the disenchanted with a by-election victory that could be a knockout blow for PM
Some truth in both of those tweets, but the “socialist” tweeter has apparently missed the point that the Labour and Conservative parties also are replete with “wealthy men (and women) in suits“, and laughing even more at the British people as they pocket their salaries, expenses (often fraudulent) and outside business opportunities, donations, freebies etc.
Starmer-stein, Rachel Reeves, and Angela Rayner have been among the worst freeloaders. Yvette Cooper and her now ex-MP husband, Ed Balls, were of course also actual expenses cheats (same goes for Rachel Reeves), lucky not to have been prosecuted for fraud in the past (when MP expenses were even less-monitored than they now are).
Not necessarily, but it is a good campaigning message in a situation where Starmer-stein is despised and even hated by many voters.
My own take on that is that Starmer has little self-awareness, and will cling on to the bitter end. A lost by-election at Gorton and Denton might be that end, or it might not. The May 2026 local elections (those that have not been “postponed” or “cancelled”) might also be that end, or might not be. Open question at present.

Reform may, in that poll, be in a worse position than in the November 2025 polling, but the figures speak for themselves, really. Labour and the Con Party are still very much in the doldrums. The public are not enthusiastic about Reform either, but are willing (30% of them, anyway) to vote Reform in order to stamp on both Lab and Con.

Well, there it is. Jews facilitating an influx of Afghans to this country.
Not just any old Jews, though. Simon Myerson is the fanatical Jew-Zionist barrister and (until sacked) Recorder (p/t criminal judge) who, with Daniel Berke, was also involved in the James Wilson defamation case. Berke was solicitor for at least one of the unsuccessful defendants; Myerson was one of a number of Jews whose sworn testimony on behalf of the defendants was either disbelieved or given little or no weight by the trial judge.
Other Jews involved in the James Wilson case included (as Counsel) barrister Beth Grossman, and the notorious, negligent, and dishonest solicitor, “Mark Lewis Lawyer”, who (with his wife/carer Mandy Blumenthal) also tried to both create a provocation against the black comedian Reginald D. Hunter at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2024 and to make money out of it via “compensation” etc. Typical…
Hunter was later privately prosecuted by the malicious Jewish pressure group, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” (“CAA”), but the case thrown out in 2025, the District Judge calling it a disgraceful attempt to abuse the English legal system. In fact, the District Judge ordered that all further cases involving the “CAA” should have a copy of the transcript of his remarks appended for the perusal of later judges.
I do not know whether Beth Grossman is a member/supporter of the “CAA” (probably), but the others criticized by that trial judge all are: Myerson, Berke, a Jew academic called Hirsch [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Hirsh], a Jew journalist (scribbler) called Cailler (Daily Star employee…), and a Jewish woman called Joanne Bell, prolific on Twitter/X (as @jobellerina), among others
Speaking in lay terms rather than in strictly legal ones, the activities of the “CAA” etc amount to an ongoing Jew-Zionist, pro-Israel conspiracy, in my opinion.
Jewish pro-Israel “lawfare” is a conspiratorial abuse of the laws, courts, and legal procedure of this country.
Tweets seen
A few months after Gavin Millar KC talked about bringing me down, Mark Lewis made a false report to the police that I was trying to blackmail him.
The immediately above false complaint about me to the police in 2021, perpetrated by Jew-Zionist agitator Stephen Silverman of the fake charity (pro-Israel pressure group), “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, was particularly egregious.
Silverman, who awarded himself the title “Director of Investigations and Enforcement” at the “CAA”, should have been prosecuted for perversion or attempted perversion of the course of justice, but (presumably because the CAA has suborned or bamboozled the woodentopped police and “Clown” Prosecution Service) never was. In my view, he was and remains patently guilty.
I should have made official complaint about Silverman at the time, but assumed (wrongly, it seems) that the police were actually capable of doing their job properly, and also of thinking for themselves and taking the initiative..
At the very least, Silverman should have been prosecuted for wasting police time (by making up a completely invented and false claim involving me allegedly “racially harassing” him in 2021). See the blog post for the details.

Gorton and Denton by-election
But Labour won more than 50% of the votes last time; so it’s much more of a disaster for Starmer if they don’t retain it than it is for Farage if Reform don’t win what has still to be a real long shot of a constituency for them to bag, even in a by-election, even at this moment.
Good points by tweeter “Rod Mason”, but there is also the point that, as the insurgent “save Britain” option, Reform need to keep momentum (by winning) far more than Labour.
🚨 NEW: The first by-election poll from Gorton and Denton shows Reform UK winning the seat
Incidentally, I disagree with those saying that Matt Goodwin is a poor choice of candidate. The kneejerk choice would have been some obscure Reform member, maybe Pakistani.
By going with Goodwin, Reform have made a bold choice, someone English/British who is widely known via his online activity and his appearances on TV. I should say that, while his probable victory is certainly not nailed on, Goodwin and Reform are in pole position here.
Goodwin is not associated with the Conservative Party defectors to Reform, and has opposed their being allowed to join.
One has to start with two facts: firstly, that Gorton and Denton was a Labour heartland seat but also, secondly, that Starmer-stein’s police-state Labour “cosplay” has trashed whatever Northern England tribal Labour loyalties survived the Blair-Brown years.
In the UK as a whole, Labour is running at between 20%-25% in terms of the opinion polls. Obviously, a place like Gorton and Denton will be ahead of that. However, many pro-Labour voters may decide not to vote. Reform UK intending voters are angry. They will vote.
For many people, the situation in the UK is becoming existentially bad. They want serious action to stop that (starting with the migrant-invaders), and so far are given no red meat at all by the System parties.
Apart from those main points, there is the Green Party intervention. Many Labour-leaning people will vote Green because it is ideologically close to what Labour was during the Michael Foot years of the 1980s. Their votes may seriously dent Labour’s vote.
Labour scored 50.8% in Gorton and Denton at the 2024 GE, but is now polling in the area at around half that. Partly, in fact mainly, anger at Starmer-stein (“Tel Aviv Keith”) and his cabal, partly the fact that both the Green Party and Reform are offering radical alternatives.
Utterly absurd

Talking point (first published 1 May 2021)
“Starmer, the Jewish Lobby puppet, is (as I predicted from the start) hopeless and as dull as ditchwater, but he is no more “the problem” for Labour than was the rather different Corbyn.
Labour’s problem is that there is no longer a “proletariat” or (in the old sense) a “working class”, there is no more a bloc “Labour vote”, there are no more, or very few, “working class communities”, as such, no nationalized industries of any size, and no great loyalty to Labour, even in its traditional North and North-East heartlands.
The Labour Party itself has changed out of all recognition since its highest point of popularity in 1945. From being a largely socialist party, it moved to social-democracy and then, arguably, in the 1990s under Blair, ditched even that. It became really just a label (or as the egregious waste of space, freeloader, and careerist, Jess Phillips MP, put it, “just a ****ing rose“). Rather like those Latin American countries where the almost-identical parties distinguish themselves by colour: the Blancos v. the Colorados. Like football teams, or the racing silks in the Hippodrome at Byzantium.
It is hard to see now for what the Labour Party stands. Starmer seems to be saying that he supports almost all of what Boris-Idiot’s maladministration does, but that “Boris” should do it better!
In fact I saw a satirical comment to the effect that, were the “Conservative” misgovernment to reintroduce workhouses, Labour under Starmer would agree, but cavil that that should be done more efficiently and slightly more humanely! A joke? Yes, sort-of…but then look at the attack on the unemployed, disabled etc over the past 15-20 years. Which party really started that? Labour…Yes, the “Conservative” Jew-lobby regime of David Cameron-Levita made it worse, but all that nonsense started under Gordon Brown and his lunatic misgovernment, via Alastair Darling, Stephen Timms etc. They, not the Conservatives, brought in the crazily dysfunctional —and also dishonest— ATOS carpetbaggers, for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work_Capability_Assessment#History.
As I have often said, Labour is now basically the party of the blacks and browns and/or public service workers, which is why Labour eulogizes the NHS constantly (though the NHS is a very hit-and-miss service overall).“
[from this blog, first published on 1 May 2021]
Reading it now, I think I can claim that my views then expressed have held up rather well almost 5 years later (nicht wahr?).
[“The British government has passed legislation that criminalizes telling “offensive” jokes in public places.
If you go to a restaurant and tell a joke that makes an overhearing waiter in London feel offended, the establishment will have to report you to the police.
The government says it’s totally about protecting people from “harassment” and won’t infringe upon free speech rights at all.”]
The only answer, at least the only “peaceful” answer, to the gathering clouds of repression of free speech in the UK is to say or publish whatever you decide to say or write, then —if push comes to shove— stand up in the face of the poundland police state, refuse to accept any level or type of “guilt”, refuse to express any form of “apology” (the Jewish/Zionist/Israel lobby love it when they can force fake “apology” out of non-Jews), and refuse to accept untruth(s).
I stood up for both my own views and for freedom of expression generally both in 2016, when a pack of Israel-controlled Jews procured my disbarment (which disbarment was not only wrongful, but actually unlawful, as the Bar Standards Board admitted in a letter to me a couple of years later), and also in 2023-2024, when the same pack (nominally a different pack but in fact or effectively the same) procured (via political influence, and the suborning of police and “Clown” Prosecution Service personnel) a criminal prosecution of me: see
This blog, begun in late 2016, after my disbarment, and quite quickly published near-daily, continued to be published during the process of persecution, prosecution, trial, and sentencing.
In March 2024, the Jew-Zionists pressured the “Clown” Prosecution Service to apply for an order restricting publication of the blog, and the very “underwhelming” barrister instructed by them made a half-hearted attempt to secure that but, and to his credit, the very experienced District Judge who sentenced me (a former Deputy Chief Metropolitan Magistrate) agreed with me that the application was nonsense.
The blog continues to be published near-daily, and even were some further attempt to restrict it and me to be made, I should continue to publish, no matter what, and come what may, even if that meant arranging for publication via overseas proxies.
“They” never learn. Had I not been disbarred, I might never have started the blog.
Had I not been expelled from Twitter in 2018 (again at the instigation of Jew-Zionists, who organized a mass complaint about me, and also had political doormats such as the degenerate MP, Ian Austin —now a fake “lord”— write letters to the Attorney-General etc about me), I might well not have started daily or near-daily publication.
Now, having been persecuted/prosecuted (2023-2024), I am even more determined to continue to struggle for truth and a better society.

Topical thought
Whatever the nuances, it is clear that the recent killing of a man by the members of an ICE squad in Minnesota was murder by any normal metric. It seems that the man was shot while defenceless and on the ground, and shot several times. One might ask why he was wandering around armed at all, but of course that is not so unusual in parts of the USA.
Leaving the specific question aside, and looking at the general demeanour of the ICE squad (in fact, all of those I have seen), and the way they move and interact, their behaviour, the impression given is not one of a disciplined unit, but something more akin to a street gang.

Most of the repression of free speech in the UK, 90% or more, maybe even 99%, is driven by the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby, and is carried out by, or by reason of, the “activism” (suborning by, demanding by, whining by) Israel-connected and Israeli Embassy-connected orgs such as “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] and “UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”].

I would say that there should be free speech, i.e. speech and other expression, free of criminal sanction, and on any social, political, medical, scientific, or historical topic. The only spoken or written words that should attract criminal sanction would be direct threats to individuals, or to small groups (e.g. the local sports team, a particular team of Sky News or BBC News journalists, a specified individual church building or other specified religious building); there may be a few exceptions to that general rule of freedom, e.g. official secrets.

So the USA under Trump is apparently willing to attack, invade, or otherwise take on, simultaneously, Venezuela, Greenland/Denmark, Iran, and even Russia, even China, not to mention smaller states such as North Korea and Yemen, and maybe even Canada.
The phrase or maxim about “taking on more than you can chew” comes to mind…

That interference would make little impact were a goodly part of the Iranian population not thoroughly tired of the socially and religiously backward rule of the mullahs (in power for the past 46 years).
If Iran falls, though, a major threat to the Jew-Zionist regime of Israel, and the worldwide Jew-Zionist web, will also fall. For that reason alone, I hope that the admittedly unpleasant Iranian regime survives, at least for a while.
Donald Trump was once again caught in a lie

[“Donald Trump was once again caught in a lie So in a recently published interview, Trump claims that during the seizure of the oil tanker “Mariner”, “Russian ships retreated very quickly” as soon as the Americans arrived, however, there were no Russian ships in the area, as shown by monitoring services. The only statements suggesting otherwise came from some Western media outlets, which were later refuted. Then follows a second, even more blatant lie: Trump claimed that the oil was being unloaded. This did not happen. The tanker was empty. This is clearly visible in the photo published by the US European Command and is confirmed by numerous media reports, which say the same thing.“]
Hard to know what to believe, but it is hard to imagine why the Americans would seize an oil tanker empty of any oil, unless their intelligence was mistaken (or unless the operation is just shadow-boxing).
Whatever the truth of that, the fact remains that this action is state piracy. How can that be denied?
It is a modern example of the actions of Francis Drake and others some 400 years ago, or of the actions of British and German “surface raiders” during the two 20thC world wars: see
Two “idiot” brothers left a teenage girl critically injured while racing each other at 90mph, a court has heard.
Harrison Taylor, 19, and his 21-year-old brother Henry were racing on the Sandbanks peninsula in Poole, Dorset, when the incident happened at around 1am on Boxing Day in 2023. Harrison was in a Mercedes A200 and his older brother in a BMW 135i. The court heard the brothers had been gifted the powerful cars to help them get over their parents splitting up.
The court heard Harrison was going “pedal to the metal” when he lost control of the Mercedes on a bend and collided with a gatepost of a multi-million pound mansion. The BMW then ploughed into the back of the Mercedes, sending it flying forwards into a garden wall.
Mia Savage, a front seat passenger in the Mercedes, was trapped in the crumpled vehicle and had to be cut free from the wreckage as her mother, who had been called to the scene of the accident, watched on. The girl, who was 17 at the time, was airlifted to hospital with life-changing injuries that included a shattered left femur, a fractured neck, broken arm, eight broken ribs and severe internal bleeding from a severed spleen, split diaphragm and liver laceration.
The teen underwent hours of complex surgery and was in an induced coma for a week. She was then in traction for her arms and one of her legs and had a fixed neck brace for 12 weeks.
She also lost out on a sports scholarship at the private Clayesmore School due to her injury. Following her ordeal, she was unable to return to school for months and ended up with lesser grades which meant she was not accepted at her chosen university.
The two brothers pleaded guilty to causing serious injury by dangerous driving and arrived at Bournemouth Crown Court today, but they avoided being sent to jail. Judge Robert Pawson let them off with suspended sentences due to their young ages and previous good character. He banned them from driving for three years.
Miss Savage’s mother Karen Bulgarelli, a lawyer, said she was disappointed with the outcome. She said: “They have ruined three people’s lives but they are all clapping each other on the back that they’re walking out.”

Regular readers of the blog will know that I am far from a “hanger and flogger”, and there is certainly a place, often a place, for leniency and/or mercy in sentencing, but the victim in the instant case has been disrespected, and not given at least the satisfaction that the perpetrators have been punished.
While hearing what the learned judge said relating to the youth, clean record, and absence of alcohol/drug usage by the defendants, their egregious behaviour has left a relatively-innocent victim in a poor condition, and with far poorer prospects than was the case prior to the “accident”.
Had I ever become a judge, I should (I think) have been generally clement, but not in a case of this sort, so the defendants in this case are lucky that they were sentenced by the judge mentioned, and not by me.

I keep seeing tweets etc from “the usual suspects” (inter alia, the Jew-Zionist “Campaign Against Antisemitism”, GB News, Talk TV, Nick Timothy MP, “lord” Ian Austin etc) demanding the sacking of the Chief Constable and others of the West Midlands Police.
All about the storm-in-a-teacup around whether some ghastly Jewish football team from Israel should have been allowed to play west of Birmingham, and its violent supporters allowed to attend.
The intent behind the claque noise is obvious. If the police cave in, in future they —and other police forces— will be too scared to oppose any and all demands by the Jew-Zionist/Israel lobby.
cf. the fraudulent claim by the “CAA”, a year or so ago, that its chief, liar and (in my opinion) perjurer, Gideon Falter, had been barred by the Metropolitan Police from crossing a road by reason of his looking “visibly Jewish“.
They “demanded” the resignation of the Commissioner of Metropolitan Police on that occasion. He refused to play ball, many others were aware of the many fraudulent stunts attempted by Falter, “Slitherman” and other “CAA” types, so the scam failed, that time, as have others, e.g. the 2024 Edinburgh Fringe stunt attempted by dishonest Jew lawyer Mark Lewis, his wife/carer/CAA operative Mandy Blumenthal, and dishonest young Jewish newspaper scribbler and “CAA” supporter (now no longer scribbling) Sabrina Miller.

“UKLFI is known for launching numerous legal claims against what it sees as anti-Israel activities, sometimes described as “lawfare”.[4] It challenged the UK Government over its suspension of 30 arms export licences to Israel and raised a complaint about the International Criminal Court’s seeking of arrest warrants against Israeli ministers.[4]“
[Wikipedia]
As to “lawfare” by UKLFI (and other Jew-Zionist organizations in the UK), see below. UKLFI was the complainant in 2014 when I was wrongfully (and, it later turned out, actually unlawfully) disbarred in 2016.
In 2014, UKLFI put up some broken-down Jew-Zionist barrister (of whom I had never previously heard), a denizen of the heavily-Jewish Hampstead Garden Suburb, to make the official complaint against me. That Jew in fact never made an appearance at the Bar Disciplinary Tribunal itself (a polite and not unreasonable barrister from the Bar Standards Board conducted the quasi-trial “prosecution” before a 5-person panel chaired by a retired Circuit Judge), but the said Jew did draft a considerable amount of preliminary paperwork, letters etc.
“UKLFI”, like the notorious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], operates out of a postbox, its real address kept secret.
The UK has to clear out these Israel snoopers and abusers of English law and procedure. They are effectively arms of the Israeli Embassy in London, and of the State of Israel. See below for my account of the matter and related matters:
and (relating to my free speech trial of 2023-2024, procured by the lying and perjuring “CAA”, another arm of the Jewish/Israel “lawfare” conspiracy in England):
I notice that the “CAA” and “UKLFI” still share a number of members or supporters, including some “patrons”, officials etc. One is “Baroness” Deech, who at the time of the 2014 complaint of “UKLFI” to the Bar Standards Board about me, was not only a “Patron” of “UKLFI” but also the head of…the Bar Standards Board!
A telling example of how “they” worm their way in, subverting law and rights.
After my wrongful and unlawful disbarment of 2016, “UKLFI” mainly shut up about me, except for a comment in the Press by the old Jew barrister who had signed-off on the original complaint, but the “CAA” took up the slack, starting to crow about me and about my having been disbarred. The liar and perjurer Gideon Falter, head of the malicious “CAA” org, was immediately on the telephone to compliant newspaper scribblers about me.
Once you allow a group, consisting of citizens and fervent supporters of an alien foreign power, to interfere with and abuse your laws, you might as well be a colonized subject-state, which is in fact, or in effect, what Britain has become.

Very true. Compare the original Inspector Morse (1987-2000) with both the (filmed much later— 2006-2015) Lewis, and then Endeavour (2013-2023).
Endeavour, set the earliest (1960s, then early/mid 1970s) but filmed last, is replete with blacks and other non-whites, despite that being totally ahistorical. I knew Berkshire and, to a lesser extent, Oxfordshire, as a child of the 1960s [b.1956]; even in the 1970s, Oxford was almost entirely white British, even at the University.
Inspector Morse, set in, and filmed in, the late 1980s and the 1990s, does not have very many non-white characters.

Huge defeat for the malicious Jew-Zionist “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”] cabal
A wonderful Christmas present. The malicious Jew-Zionist cabal (and fake “charity” moneymaking operation) known as the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” (“or “CAA”), has suffered a huge defeat, albeit only in the magistrates’ court (but the effects will be far-reaching).
Does anyone know who were CAA's legal team? Solicitor? Barrister?
As tweeter James Wilson implies, a barrister can only do what he can with the brief he is given, and is, also, bound (at least notionally) by the “cab rank rule”, so cannot always represent those he likes or respects.
I have no idea if, or to what extent, that particular barrister is tied up ideologically or otherwise with the Jew-Zionists and/or Israel. However, it has to be said that the “CAA” would be unlikely to instruct Counsel unless said Counsel was thought to be at least fairly supportive of them. That at least is my own opinion.
CAA is registered under Charity Commission no. 1163790
The judge's comments constitute credible external evidence of potential violations of the Charities Act.
A court has an inherent power to stay or strike out a private criminal prosecution if it is determined to be an abuse of process. This power is exercised to ensure a fair trial and to protect the integrity of the criminal justice system.
Google AI provides a useful overview:
“Grounds for Abuse of Process
A private prosecution may be deemed an abuse of process for various reasons, including but not limited to:
Ulterior Motive: The primary motive is not to bring a person to justice, but to achieve a collateral advantage, such as leveraging a settlement in a parallel civil claim, or pursuing a personal vendetta.
Unfairness: Continuing the prosecution would cause such prejudice to the defendant that a fair trial would not be possible.
Vexatious/Oppressive Action: The prosecution is frivolous, vexatious, or otherwise oppressive, meaning it is brought without proper grounds or for an improper purpose.
Relitigation: The case attempts to relitigate matters that have already been decided by a competent court or where the defendant has already accepted a caution for the same allegations.
Lack of Evidence/Public Interest: The case does not meet the evidential or public interest tests set out in the Code for Crown Prosecutors, which private prosecutors are expected to follow as a matter of best practice.
Mechanisms for Challenging a Private Prosecution
The defence can challenge a private prosecution in several ways:
Court Application: The defendant can apply to the magistrates’ court or Crown Court to have the proceedings stayed as an abuse of process.
DPP Intervention: The defence can make representations to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), inviting the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) to take over the case under section 6(2) of the Prosecution of Offences Act 1985 and subsequently discontinue it. The DPP can consider a broader range of evidence and the public interest when making this decision, which is often a more effective route than a court application to dismiss the case.
Courts generally exercise the power to permanently stop a prosecution on the grounds of abuse of process only in exceptional circumstances, as there is a strong public interest in the prosecution of crime.”
The Reginald D. Hunter private prosecution which has just been struck out relates to an attempted Jew-Zionist scam by fraudulent, dishonest, and incompetent Jewish solicitor, Mark Lewis, at the Edinburgh Fringe last year, aided and abetted by his wife/carer/accomplice Mandy Blumenthal, and now-sacked (in effect) former Daily Mail “cub reporter”, Sabrina Miller, who wrote a big report for the Daily Mail when she must have known that she was deliberately misleading the readers of that newspaper, and indeed her own newspaper editor(s).
As can be seen from my blog posts, Mark Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal had, some years before the Edinburgh Fringe stunt, succeeded in extracting money from an airline via yet another fraudulent stunt, that time at Heathrow Airport. Both Blumenthal and Lewis profited thereby.
As to Sabrina Miller, she was at the centre of the campaign by Israel-supporting Jew students (with the “CAA” and other Jew-Zionist/Israeli orgs in the shadows, supporting the campaign) at Bristol University against Dr. (I think also, at the time, Professor) David Miller, who was eventually dismissed, but who won a later employment case against Bristol University. Dr. Miller is now the target of one of quite many private criminal prosecutions being undertaken by the fake “Campaign Against Antisemitism” “charity” (pressure group and part-volunteer arm of the Embassy of Israel in London), which is headed by the Jewish liar and perjurer Gideon Falter.
Incidentally, Sabrina Miller once penned a student piece saying that bestiality should be decriminalized in the UK, and she openly supported tweets by non-Jew but pro-Zionist MP, and fanatical supporter of the Jewish lobby and Israel, Ian Austin (later elevated to the degraded House of Lords by “Boris”-idiot at the behest of the Jewish lobby, despite Austin having been a Labour MP and despite Austin having been an egregious expenses cheat and freeloader). Austin’s tweets, however, “only” suggested the decriminalization of bestiality pornography, not bestiality itself. Sabrina Miller, now unemployed and/or travelling overseas, must be a very strange young woman.
Those being prosecuted by the “CAA” privately include British former MEP and one-time head of the British National Party [BNP], Nick Griffin. His representatives are expected to make an application to strike out the prosecution at Southwark Crown Court in April 2026, failing the success of which there will be a trial in May of 2026, a trial in which the alleged “criminal” act was the supposed posting on Twitter of a single cartoon. A Crown Court trial, before a High Court judge and a jury, for a single cartoon!
This country has gone mad, but the problem, at root, is that we have allowed a “certain element” to abuse us both legally and otherwise.
Anyway, the judgment in that Reginald D. Hunter case should make interesting reading for the High Court judge expected to hear the Griffin strike-out application in April…
The judiciary really must start to rein back the “lawfare” abuse being perpetrated by the Jew-Zionist fanatics in this country.
Latest: I have just heard that two more “CAA” private prosecutions have been chucked out today. Bitter herbs…

Russia’s world leadership will not arrive for another 1,500 years but, in the meantime, Russia must be allowed to develop in its own way, not as a field of exploitation by Western profiteers.
"Most people who enter Britain through asylum routes have low employment rates, low wages, are economically inactive, and if they are working then they earn a median salary of just £20,000 for men and £18,000 for women."https://t.co/5QluSPB5P1
It seems to me that both main (or formerly “main”) System parties are living in a world of delusion in which, after events or scandals or propaganda attack ads, the disenchanted British voters will ditch their new-found support for Reform and the Greens, and will return to the old comfortable (?) fold as Con and Lab voters. Not going to happen, in my view. The old loyalties and habits have been shattered by the betrayals by both Lab and Con (and their palpable incompetence, as well).
Andrew Neil is right. About absolutely everything.
When leaders start treating elections as optional…
They usually discover too late… that voters stop treating them as legitimate.
So the knackers yard boiling pots are warming up nicely for Starmer.
[“NEW: The Government is set to announce the “biggest animal welfare reforms” in a generation – Ban puppy farming by reforming dog breeding rules – Ban electric shock collars on pets pending a consultation – Ban trail hunting amid concerns it is being used as a smokescreen for illegal fox hunting – Introduce humane slaughter rules for farmed fish to prevent avoidable pain during killing – Phase out colony cages for laying hens, which restrict movement and natural behaviours like nesting and perching, and pig farrowing crates, which confine mother pigs and stop them turning around after giving birth – Ban snare traps that can catch pets and cause suffering for animals – Reform the use of carbon dioxide to stun pigs after evidence it causes distress and suffering – Ban shooting hares during the breeding season (roughly from February to September) so young hares are not left without mothers.”]
For once, I thoroughly approve of all the new government measures (re. animal welfare) but, as tweeter Sophie Meaden says, both Muslim halal and Jewish kosher slaughter must also be banned.
Naturally, Starmer-stein’s government would not ban “Semitic” forms of slaughter, because 1. this is a totally “occupied” Labour Friends of Israel government which 2. in terms of numbers of actual votes is dependent on UK-resident Muslims.
I might add that I suspect that these (otherwise welcome) animal welfare measures are being brought in partly to —so to speak— shoot the Green Party’s fox, and cut some support ground from underneath the Greens.
I genuinely can’t understand a word she says and that’s not me being cruel when I say that.
The comedy industry has been absolutely destroyed due to the Marxist ideologies being pushed throughout the West.
Quite. By the same token, while I am sorry for those with disabilities, I oppose the near-worship exemplified by the Paralympics. The Olympics are supposed to be “Faster, Higher, Stronger“, so having a kind of parallel for-the-disabled sports-fest does not seem to be quite right, though I take little interest in sports anyway, so that is not a major issue for me.
As to comedy, I have no idea who the featured individual is (or what she is saying, as tweeter Sophie Meaden says) but Ms. Meaden’s view is surely correct.
There is a kind of madness abroad in this country now. It is seen in various realms, and was very obvious during the truly ridiculous and absurd “Covid” panicdemic/scamdemic of 2020-2022. Examples: the range of ludicrous “measures” taken (facemask nonsense, “social distancing”, “furlough” payments, fraudulent business loans or grants, the toytown police of the toytown police state checking people’s shopping, and arresting people out of a drive or a walk or sitting on benches at the seaside).
Mad. All mad. Oh, and who could forget the ridiculous “clap for the NHS” nonsense?
As to comedy, it dies when the State, or the System, mandates what cannot be said, or who can or cannot be laughed at. Thus the Soviet Union had a magazine called Krokodil, supposedly satirical, but it could only laugh at approved targets, so not the CPSU (Communist Party), not socialism as a system etc. The same thing has now happened (since the early 1990s) in the UK. Example: the lame Have I Got News for You show. Private Eye magazine, too.
No comedian who wants to be on TV or radio, or even in theatres, can make fun of Jews, blacks, or a range of other groups or events or types.
We now have an ever-tightening noose of censorship. The “bad law” Communications Act 2003, s.127, for example, is frequently abused by the malicious Jew-Zionists such as, in fact mainly, the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”.
In fact, the Jewish/Israel lobby is behind much, though not all, of the anti-free speech activity in the UK. The Muslim element too, though much less so. Then there is the pervasive “political correctness” or “woke” influence.
I have a few good cartoons illustrating all that but, because they featured as Prosecution evidence in my 2023 free speech trial, I prefer not to republish them at present. Q.E.D.
Poll by @LordAshcroft (not British Polling Council member) in Mail on Sunday has Reform 25% -2 Con 22% +2 Green 19% +1 Lab 18% nc Lib Dem 10% -1 11-15 Dec, change since Nov pic.twitter.com/YgP9t7N2wU
Somewhat different from other polls of the past few months. Translates to a Commons with about 283 Reform UK MPs (about 30 short of an overall majority), Cons 111 (far better than all other recent polls; not far short of their present position; and they would be the Opposition, if not in some kind of compact with Reform, which would be not unlikely), 64 Lab, 60 Greens, 50 LibDems, and 44 SNP [etc].
Lord Ashcroft’s polling has been accurate in the past. It may just be that the electorate is very volatile at present.
The Labour party’s decision to tie itself to the Netanyahu govt for inexplicable reasons has allowed the Green Party to surge and will lose them their seats in London and all the big cities. What a moral, strategic and political catastrophe that policy has been.
We have reached a crucial turning point. Is it a crime to criticize Jews? Poland has to break free of Jewish thought control by acquitting Gregor Braun. https://t.co/l43XzP4igI
[“Warsaw, Poland — In one of the most politically charged trials in recent Polish history, MP and nationalist leader.@GrzegorzBraun_ delivered a dramatic and controversial defense statement in court. He directly referred to the writings and teachings of Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson — whose portrait was displayed in the Polish Parliament — arguing that the ideology expressed in those texts discriminates against non-Jews and violates the Polish Constitution. Prosecutors accuse Braun of hate-motivated offenses and disruption of a religious ceremony during the 2023 Hanukkah event inside the Sejm. His immunity has already been removed by both Polish and European institutions, opening the way for a full criminal trial.“]
If it’s a ‘crime to hate’ then I’m guilty of the most serious case. I detest with every bone in my body Jess Phillips. Her gaslighting and complicity in the rape of our girls and women. The demonisation of our children as a distraction from the real problem.
Your main interest in me is that I’m a Jew and you are a racist. Because if it wasn’t you would know that I’ve long argued that this country’s English traditions should be respected, I’ve been an opponent of mass migration and I believe in this country as a British one. So I’m an…
[“The word “racist” has no meaning to most White people anymore. We have realised that it’s just been used so we’d quietly accept our demographic replacement in our own countries. Attacking a young man who cares about his country whilst trying to act like some kind of victim isn’t the flex you think it is. Why are jews entitled to Israel but we have to allow our countries to turn into third world economic zones? Our ancestors didn’t fight for this and we’ve had enough now of subversives such as yourself trying to gaslight us for saying that we’ve had enough.“]

Directly before the s**ual assault, he had beaten her 69-year-old female caregiver, according to the Basel public prosecutor’s office. The man, described as “African,” fled when the door to the bathroom facility was opened, where he was found performing s**ual acts on the toddler. Police and medical services arrived on the playground and treated the two injured victims. The suspect remains on the run.

I have a very good cartoon which shows and lampoons that, but it was a feature of my free speech trial a couple of years ago (November 2023), so I suppose that I had better not feature it here (though it can be found here and there on the blog from pre-2024; all my blog posts are still live, despite the petty conviction the Jews of “Campaign Against Antisemitism” managed to procure or buy).
Ha ha! That Irish dork “commentating” on the “no-one watches” Talk TV platform is a remarkably-stupid-sounding mouthpiece for the (((you know who))) element.

The huge amount of taxpayers’ money thrown at the Jew Zelensky will not be any good on the front lines, where his pressganged armies are facing defeat in all sectors of the front.
Incidentally, this is not a loan but a gift or grant. Only if Russia ever pays war reparations to the Kiev regime (which will never happen) will the “loan” become repayable.
Starmer-stein has already agreed to give the Kiev regime £600M from the UK taxpayer, at a time when it would make a big difference here.
The Israeli newspaper Yediot Ahronot claims that before the 12-day war, Israeli intelligence structures allegedly detected alarming signs that Iran was working on creating a new type of nuclear weapon.
[“The Israeli newspaper Yediot Ahronot claims that before the 12-day war, Israeli intelligence structures allegedly detected alarming signs that Iran was working on creating a new type of nuclear weapon. According to the publication, we are talking about so-called “fourth-generation” nuclear weapons, based on the technology of “pure thermonuclear fusion”, which, it is claimed, have not been produced by any country in the world so far.“]
Israel is doomed.
Google AI analysis:
Potential Advantages of Pure Fusion Weapons
Reduced Nuclear Proliferation Risk (of materials): The most significant advantage is the lack of a requirement for highly enriched uranium (U-235) or plutonium (Pu-239) for the primary trigger. The production of these fissile materials requires a massive, difficult-to-conceal industrial infrastructure (enrichment facilities or nuclear reactors), which is the primary target of current non-proliferation efforts and verification treaties. The fuels for pure fusion, deuterium and tritium, are much easier to obtain, making clandestine development of the weapons themselves easier if a viable triggering mechanism existed.
Minimal Radioactive Fallout: Fusion reactions primarily produce helium, an inert gas, as a byproduct, rather than the highly radioactive, long-lived fission products that cause widespread, long-term fallout. This would significantly reduce long-term collateral damage and environmental contamination.
Potential for Very Low, Arbitrary Yields: Fission weapons require a critical mass of fissile material, imposing a minimum size and yield (typically in the kiloton range). Pure fusion weapons could theoretically be designed to have much smaller, “sub-kiloton” yields (potentially down to the equivalent of a few tons of TNT). This might make them more attractive for specific, tactical military uses (e.g., “bunker busting”) by limiting the immediate area of explosive destruction.
Enhanced Radiation Effects: For their size, pure fusion weapons could be designed to produce an intense burst of prompt neutron radiation. This effect, which is the principle of a “neutron bomb,” is highly lethal to living organisms and can neutralize armored targets or personnel within a certain radius while causing less physical destruction to surrounding infrastructure compared to a large blast.
Current Status
Despite these theoretical advantages, pure fusion weapons are currently hypothetical. All existing thermonuclear weapons use a fission primary (atomic bomb) to generate the extreme temperatures and pressures necessary to ignite the fusion secondary.”
