Saturday quiz

Well, this week brings another victory over political journalist John Rentoul. He scored 4/10, but I trumped that with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 5, and 8, and was unsure about question 6, so also did not award myself a point for that even though I knew it was one of two particular architects.

GE 2024

Not only that, but Starmer-Labour’s vote-share of 33.8% was, of course, 33.8% of those that bothered to vote. Turnout was only 60%, so Starmer-Labour’s share of the entire eligible electorate was only 20.28%. That’s before you even take into account those too young to vote.

So active support for Starmer-Labour is, at best, little more than 20%, one in five of the eligible electorate. Even then, one has to consider that —as I have blogged since a long time prior to the General Election— the main motivation for all voters, except the quite small minority that actually voted Conservative, was to get rid of the Conservative government and, if possible, party, not to install a Starmer-Labour government.

It is quite likely that only about 10%-15% of the population really support Starmer-Labour.

Of course, it is worse for the Conservative Party. On the above bases and premises, real support for the Conservatives, in the country as a whole, is somewhere between 5% and 14%. Much worse than their headline 23.7% vote-share.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_Kingdom_general_election

Nearly 60% of voters, of the 60% who voted, voted for one of the three main System parties, but if you factor in the non-voting eligible voters, that means that a minority (well below 40%) of all eligible voters voted for a System party . Then factor in younger people unable to vote, and the true “support” figure for the System, let alone the Starmer-Labour part of it, reduces to somewhere abound 20% (with Labour having maybe 15%, as already noted).

Jess Phillips saying that “Birmingham Yardley has given my family everything..”!

Ain’t that the truth?!

“Since 2019, Phillips has received the second highest income on top of her MP’s salary amongst Labour Party MPs.[5]” [Wikipedia]

A freeloading grifting opportunist. Labour Friends of Israel member. It is unfortunate that Jess Phillips was re-elected; by only 693 votes too, ahead of a candidate from Galloway’s “Workers’ Party”.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birmingham_Yardley_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s

I doubt that Jess Phillips will be MP after 2029. No doubt she will be using the next 4-5 years to coin as much money as she can for herself and her family.

I wrote a piece about Jess Phillips in 2019. I see no reason to change my view of her; au contraire. https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/05/07/deadhead-mps-an-occasional-series-the-jess-phillips-story/.

Why has the UK (msm and, therefore, public) adopted the Americanism of describing every former soldier, even if his (or her) service consisted of 3 years in a completely safe UK-based and/or non-combatant unit, as a “veteran“?

Puts my teeth on edge.

What price “democracy”?

“Her son literally sells his wife Only Fans, and she has no experience outside of being a trade Union representative, is she remotely qualified or experienced enough to hold the office she has? These are valid questions. But we could ask this of the entire cabinet? Literally none of them have experience of my distinction outside of playing politics. Look at the business Secretary, he has literally never owned or even worked in a business? What knowledge can he possibly bring to the role? These are important questions, that can’t simply be brushed aside with a few slurs.“

Interesting.

Look at thick-as-two-short-planks David Lammy, now Foreign Secretary.

Admittedly, recent years have seen quite a few deadhead appointees to Cabinet anyway (including, as Foreign Secretary, Liz Truss and “Boris”-idiot), but look at this!

The only way this undeserved huge-majority Starmer-Labour government will not crash and burn within 1-2 years will be if it can stop mass immigration into the UK (I doubt that it will even try), and stop the cross-Channel “small boats” migration invasion (Starmer will probably simply set up “processing centres” in France, then rubberstamp 95% of applicants).

Starmer will also have to reconcile the “need” (caused mainly by mass immigration) to build huge numbers of new and really affordable houses and flats, meaning council or other social housing, and at the same time not trash the —mainly— English countryside, including Green Belt land.

Starmer-Labour will probably not have the money to build millions of dwelling units, so will turn to private housebuilding carpetbaggers, and so will probably let them loose on what should be protected countryside. Starmer will all but demolish planning controls answerable to local people.

I can see even worse bullying of the sick, disabled, and unemployed. Look at Rachel Reeves and Liz Kendall. Do you really see any compassion (or any particularly high intellect, or any willingness to think outside the box) there? I don’t.

Looks also as if the UK will continue to throw support, including money and weapons, to both “Ukraine” (the Kiev regime) and Israel.

I see no higher (indeed, lower) living standards in prospect. Mass immigration inevitably means lower pay (whatever some Twitter-twits may think), and also higher taxes (because most of the immigrants are, at best, parasitic overall, and many are prolifically criminal as well).

The fabric of society will continue to fray, both by reason of the importation of about a million non-Europeans each year and because of cultural and administrative factors.

In short, this new pseudo-landslide government will almost certainly fail the British people, and fail quickly. After the people wake up to that, anything is possible.

I recall reading a Russian-language book about Dzerzhinsky [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Dzerzhinsky], sometime around 1982. When he was, in the early 1920s, and amid his other responsibilities, head of the rail industry, he discovered considerable inefficiency, corruption etc. He had some executives and other people shot. Apparently, his methods, harsh though they certainly were, checked the problem sufficiently until systemic improvements were implemented: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felix_Dzerzhinsky#Director_of_Cheka.

Just a thought.

Labour’s less sanguinary alternative.

Some industries are, in the contemporary era, better under public ownership. Rail. Domestic water supply. Most electricity. Most if not all gas.

Oh, right…let’s have a “bas-class” Mauritian Indian and pro-Israel puppet as “Conservative” leader and, later, potential (will never happen, though) Prime Minister…

No thanks…

I always said that the reason why British people, most of them, have not turned to social nationalism over my lifetime [b.1956] is because not enough of them were hurting enough. Not enough of them hurting enough and not enough of them knowing where to place the blame and, also, not enough of them knowing where to place their trust.

The situation at present, as I see it, is that living standards are now falling (and have been for some time), that social and civic standards are in most respects at an all-time low, and still sliding, and that the background and intellectual level of MPs is at an all-time low, as is public trust in, and respect for, them.

All those above factors are getting worse, more pronounced. At the same time (and connected to the above), mass immigration is totally out of control. Not just the cross-Channel “illegals”, but the “legals” coming in on student visas, work visas, “family and friends” visas, “fiancee” visas, tourist visas (the “tourists” then disappearing or claiming asylum) and the rest. A million a year, give or take.

That whole situation has been the background for the loss of confidence in the Conservative Party, and is also the reason why Starmer-Labour is also actually quite unpopular, despite its “landslide by default”.

The happy cheers from TV studios and from System journalists such as John Rentoul are not echoed by the British people.

The situation on the ground is why Reform UK, despite its semi-“libertarian” bias, and its often underwhelming candidates, has managed to get 5 MPs and (arguably as important) over 4 million votes.

When Starmer-Labour falters, in 2025 or 2026, the British people may be ready for a much more radical movement of the “Overton Window”, policies well beyond those of Farage’s Reform UK.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Vallance#Minister_of_State_for_Science

So it begins…

I notice also that Nick Boles, pro-Israel and a Bilderberg attendee, may be another to join the Starmer-Labour “elected” dictatorship:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Boles#Policy_positions; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilderberg_Meeting.

The System has several faces…

Tweeter “@jdpoc”, a self-describing “antifascist”, used to occasionally tweet rubbish about me, too. He has (as people now say) “issues”; he has made one or two guest appearances on one of my blog posts: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/.

Regular readers of the blog will know that I have never favoured the Rwanda plan, for several reasons (impracticability, cost, probability of political instability in Rwanda, numbers etc), but of course the cancellation will encourage the migrant-invaders (even more).

It is alarming to see (though Twitter is not at all typical of the mass of the public) how many idiots of the “Janet Cobb” type there are in the UK. Unwitting (?) gravediggers of our people’s future. Take a look at her Twitter/X timeline. Incredible wilful stupidity.

Now we see how Starmer intends to run his “elected” dictatorship. As a dictatorship. A Zionist-influenced or controlled tyranny. We are only on day 2 so far…

Jacqui Smith. Expenses cheat and freeloader, but that’s OK because she has the imprimatur from Israel…

…and then, after those who stole and grifted for years get chucked out in elections, those same cheats and freeloaders (such as Jacqui Smith) get invited back into government, given a peerage (no need for silly elections, oh no…), and a ministerial portfolio! How wonderful “democracy” is!

GE 2024

Disappointing. I wanted the Conservative Party to be crushed (~50 seats) whereas, now, on about 120 seats, it can still pose as a viable party, and its status as official Opposition reinforces that.

Labour, as expected, won the most seats, easily (with 2 results not yet in, 412 MPs, and a majority of about 96 or so).

The other System party, the LibDems, have apparently won 71 seats, almost all entirely by default, as “alternative choice”, or “dustbin” choice, or “tactical choice”.

Of course, this election again emphasizes the inadequacy of FPTP voting, but the “usual suspects” make sure that the System parties oppose proportional representation. “They” remember Adolf!

FPTP makes it very hard for small parties to rise up. That makes the modest success of both Reform UK and the Greens even more striking.

It has been hilarious to read the tweets bitterly whining at Farage having won at Clacton.

Reform UK now has a foothold at Westminster. The exit poll had predicted 13 MPs. Looks like 4 now. Still, the significant thing, apart from those 4 successes, is that Reform came second in dozens of other constituencies. When Labour (as is inevitable) lets down the voters over the next 4-5 years, Reform may be in a position to do much better.

The Greens also did well, though that party will never be able to convince the general public that they are really “green” while they continue to support mass immigration, or allowing the creation of large solar electricity installations, or huge wind turbines, on green fields etc.

While I am disappointed with the overall result, and with some individual results too, I have seen plenty of results that have cheered me.

A number of the MPs removed have been featured over recent years in my “Deadhead MPs” series.

Some removed MPs:

Victoria Prentis [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victoria_Prentis], a complete puppet of the Israel lobby, and an exceptionally poor Attorney-General, has been removed (as MP). A Conservative Friends of Israel member.

Karl McCartney [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karl_McCartney], a very unpleasant Con MP, is now (for the second time) removed. Conservative Friends of Israel member.

Deadhead MPs, An Occasional Series: The Karl McCartney Story

Jacob Rees-Mogg [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacob_Rees-Mogg] a kind of “cosplay” fake or would-be “aristocrat”.

Theresa Villiers [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theresa_Villiers]. Complete puppet of the Israel lobby; member of Conservative Friends of Israel.

Penny Mordaunt. The now-washed-up “great white hope” of those Conservative Party members outdated enough to want a real English person as leader and possible PM. Not the worst of the ditched MPs. Never mind; she will always have the memory of that Coronation sword and, a few years earlier, that swimsuit moment…

Liz Truss. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liz_Truss. Surely needs no introduction. As for Woollyhead Trussbanger [Kwasi Kwarteng— https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kwasi_Kwarteng], he stepped down before the General Election. Conservative Friends of Israel member.

Selaine Saxby. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selaine_Saxby.

She will no doubt return to teaching girls, and eating self-packed lunches.

Nigel Evans. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigel_Evans. A useless creature, whose only real job before becoming an MP was helping out in his parents’ corner shop. He was also lucky to escape conviction on sex offences (see my “Deadhead MPs” profile, below).

Therese Coffey. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th%C3%A9r%C3%A8se_Coffey

Oh, God, what can one say? Actually, I already said it, years ago (see her “Deadhead MP” profile, below). She had one of the supposedly safest Con Party seats, too.

Scott Mann. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Mann_(politician).

This was the idiot who wanted to put GPS trackers in the handles of all knives to deter “knife crime”! A total deadhead. He should have suggested putting microchips under the skin of those “likely” to commit knife crime, but that might be seen as “racist”, of course.

Deadhead MPs, An Occasional Series: The Scott Mann Story

As I said in an update to that blog post, “Mann could, I suppose, go back to being a postman, a far more socially-useful job than being an MP, at least one of the type Mann has been. Otherwise, unless his friends can find a job for him, he may soon start to learn from personal experience how hard life can be in contemporary Britain for the unemployed, especially at his age (46).

That should not come as too much of a shock to him, though. After all, he himself voted for all of the anti-“welfare” nonsense put through from 2015-2024, and approved of most if not all of the Dunce Duncan Smith nonsense of 2010-2015.“

Robert Largan. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Largan.

One of the best results of GE 2024, as far as I am concerned. Not merely a Conservative Friends of Israel member, but a very nasty little individual, who tweeted against me a few times in the past, and also gloated online at the convictions of Alison Chabloz, the satirist and singer, who lives and/or lived in the High Peak constituency.

Larghan was a “bean-counter” (accountant) for Marks & Spencer before latching onto the old MP racket; perhaps he will go back to that way of making a living.

“After losing his seat as the HIgh Peak MP Robert Largan, who was standing for the Conservative party, says he has helped a huge number of constituents and brought money to the area during his time in power.

This morning it was announced that Jon Pearce had taken the seat with 22,533 votes and Mr Largan only getting 14,625 votes.

However, reflecting on his time in office Mr Largan said: “All political careers end in failure.“

[Buxton Advertiser]

Largan, derivative to the end…(and most “political careers” last longer than 5 years…).

Incidentally, I notice that all or almost all of the Conservative Party MPs binned (not just the few noted above) would have retained their seats had it not been for the Reform UK candidatures.

Our animal friends.

“Man proposes, God disposes” etc, but this will have been merely the start, now that Reform UK have their boots under the table. They are, of course, not social-national, but their success moves the “Overton Window” a bit, anyway. A real social-national movement must emerge, though.

Reform UK apparently got a national vote-share of around 14%. In a pure PR system, Reform would be allocated about 91 MPs, not the miserable 4 allowed via FPTP.

Will Hutton, like so many of his type, cannot see that most of the issues, if not all, that he highlights, have been caused, or have been made worse, and/or are still being made much worse, by the continuing migration invasion, numbered in the millions. Indeed, over the past 25 years alone, numbered in the tens of millions.

Labour’s “landslide” is an arithmetical trick, nothing more. No-one really has any enthusiasm for Israel-puppet Starmer and his unimpressive MPs. The result of GE 2024, as expected, was that Labour’s vote-share stayed almost the same (33.7%, compared to 32.1% in 2019), as did the LibDem vote-share (12.2% compared to 11.6%), but the Conservative Party vote-share dropped from 43.6% in 2019 to 23.7% in 2024.

Reform UK’s vote share (the official figure not yet seen by me but supposedly 14%) was obviously the main reason why Con losses and Lab gains were so great.

Another significant fact is that over 40% of those eligible to vote did not vote. Turnout was below 60%.

Tweeter “@BarnabyEdwards” displays the usual “woke” inability to think. He only accepts the logic he wants to accept. At first, it’s “ha ha, look at Reform UK! What a failure!“, then, when some facts about voting numbers are pointed out, it’s “yes, FPTP is rubbish, but fact is that Reform UK have only 5 MPs and yet are treated the same as serious parties like Plaid Cymru and the Greens, and will get more coverage than they merit“.

The said tweeter, one Barnaby Edwards, is really saying that Plaid Cymru, with its (faux) Welsh “nationalism”, and the pseudo-Greens, merit more coverage than Reform because (unspoken) Reform is anti-migration invasion etc.

Look at the popular vote numbers, though: Reform UK well over 4 MILLION votes; Plaid Cymru below 195,000, not even a twentieth of the number of votes received by Reform. As for the Greens, 1,842,000, so good but still a long way short of half the number of votes received by Reform.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_Kingdom_general_election#Results

Incidentally, tweeter “@BarnabyEdwards” has nearly 23,000 Twitter/X “followers”, whereas the more sensible or less biased fellow talking with him, “@cllranderson”, has a mere 2,000. Typical of the platform, of course.

Comment is surely superfluous…

He has got to be better than the smug retired actor who is the Conservative Party candidate.

Whether it happens this summer or next, sooner or later the Russian “Stavka” will order a general advance across Eastern Ukraine. Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose it.

The Labour Party 1997-2010 created the system that resulted in this, the Conservative Party 2010-2015 made such events more common, and the Liberal Democrats enabled the Conservative Party from 2010-2015.

All System parties.

If so, rather disappointing for me. I wanted the Conservative Party to be all but wiped out, primarily. 130 MPs will mean that it can still present itself as a potentially viable party of government, as it did after 1997. Very disappointing and irritating.

That means that the “2-3 main parties” scam rolls on, at least until 2029.

For social nationalism, there is no “Parliamentary road”…

Assuming that the exit poll is accurate, this is the triumph of the unmeritorious. Unmerited “elected” dictatorship for Labour. Unmerited success for the LibDems, getting 61 seats off little more than Ed Davey clowning and falling off sailboards etc. The “dustbin” party… Also, the unmerited survival of the Conservative Party, even if only as a rump party of ~131 MPs, but still enough to be the official Opposition.

The SNP, reduced to ~10 MPs at Westminster, is pretty much a dead duck as a party of Scottish government in the future, as is, now, any faux-“Independence” for Scotland.

As for Reform UK, I think that ~13 MPs constitute as good a result as they realistically could have expected. For the past 9 years, the LibDems have had fewer MPs: 8 in 2015, 12 in 2017, and 11 in 2019, yet look at them now— 61 MPs predicted. Reform UK could be there, or beyond there, in 2029. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_Democrats_(UK)#General_elections.

Wonder what that idiot-tweeter will say when real social-nationalism arrives…

Incidentally, that Britain Elects poll result, if it is right, would mean a House of Commons with 469 Labour MPs (overall majority 288), 75 LibDems, 56 Con MPs, 15 SNP, 9 Reform UK, 3 Green (etc). https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

My view is that it would be better to raise the threshold to at least the £20,000 level, but increase the tax burden of VAT (overall). True, that would hit poorer people disproportionately, but at the same time would put the choice into their hands, in fact into the hands of all consumers. Basic purchases, such as food, or basic foodstuffs, could be charged out at a lower rate or rates, or zero-rated.

Government needs tax monies in order to fund the functions of government.

Another stunning opinion poll, if accurate.

That poll, by my use of Electoral Calculus, would result in a House of Commons with 454 Labour MPs (overall majority 258), 74 LibDems, 46 Cons, 34 Reform UK, 15 SNP, 4 Green (etc).

That People Polling opinion poll comes very close to my own (I hope, educated) guess about what might be the result of tomorrow’s General Election. Labour as “elected” (by default) dictatorship, LibDems the official but completely toothless Opposition (again only by default), and Reform UK in a good position to capitalize on what will soon be Labour’s total let-down as a government. Oh, and the SNP put back in its box, probably permanently.

As for the Conservative Party, if not totally wiped out on the day, mortally wounded.

I also tend to agree, as I have been blogging recently. “Shy Reform UK voters”, unwilling to share their tendency with pollsters, may add up to something significant, if they vote at all.

That means a House of Commons with 472 Labour MPs (overall majority 294), LibDems 69, Cons 63, SNP 15, Reform 6, Greens 3 (etc).

Once again, LibDems as official Opposition. About half the polls are predicting that the LibDems will get more MPs than the Cons. I imagine that large donors to the Conservative Party will close their pocketbooks soon. A party not in government and not even the main opposition party has little influence.

1700 hrs now. 17 hours before the polls open for real.

“This is Frank and he has had a coffee stand at the top of the steps at Bethnal Green tube for as long as I can remember.

When the new restaurant/coffee shop next door opened along with another high street outlet opening across the street, Frank suddenly found that his license from the council had been revoked and he was chucked off his stand. I believe it was to make way for these new shops to take his regular custom. They didn’t need him in the way of gaining maximum profit… so Frank was gone.

Well the locals were having none of it and a petition started demanding his return. How dare they do this to him. How dare these people smash his business and leave him with nothing.

After a lot of pressure the council backed down and Frank had his licence and pitch returned to him but sadly by that time Frank had sold his equipment to feed his family and try to survive. So the good people of Bethnal Green started crowdfunding and here’s the result… Frank back in business on his old pitch with brand new equipment and even a little hut now to shelter him from the rain… Brilliant!!

He is truly the happiest man in East London and it’s wonderful to see. It really does show that if we all stick together, stand up to them and just say no… the little guy can win. If you’re in Bethnal Green come and have a coffee with this lovely man.“

A nice story, and an illustration on a small scale of what society could be.

Not an area I know (have been there a couple of times, 30-40 years ago), but if I am ever there, admittedly highly unlikely, I’ll take that coffee.

The Conservative Party misgovernment is more or less at an end now. The next battle will soon start, the battle against the overall “woke” nonsense going to be spearheaded by the Labour Party in government: “trans” nonsense, multikulti nonsense, migration-invasion, Israel/Jewish lobbyism and, encompassing all of those and more, the attack on free speech and freedom of expression.

A reminder that, in international affairs, there is sometimes no “good” option but only “bad” or “worse” options. Sometimes the “least worst” option is also the (relative) “best” at that particular time.

In the example, leaving a terrible tyrant like Saddam Hussein in place might be “bad” (arguably) but deposing him, destroying Iraq, and further destabilizing the region, thus also causing millions to flee westward, might be described as “worse” or even “worst”.

That’s now. Ask again in 2025. Ask again in 2026…

Reform UK

So we are asked to believe that two Reform UK GE 2024 candidates have only just discovered, in the latest case two days before the General Election, that they disagree with their Reform UK colleagues or ex-colleagues?

To me this looks like a set-up, maybe co-ordinated, maybe not.

The latest defector is one Georgie David. I wonder what her provenance might be. She does not look very European in the Sky News photo.

If those two candidates really are against the UK being mainly white Northern European etc, how stupid must they be to have joined with Reform UK in the first place? I might add that the pair are, obviously, though in a minor sense, “traitor” types by nature, to defect like that only days before the “off” (to put it in racing terms).

I doubt that the defections will have any effect on the General Election. In fact, I doubt that the barrage of anti-Reform propaganda being put out by the Conservative Party will do more than perhaps dent a little the Reform UK vote. Even if it did, it would not help the Con Party; any Reform-leaning voters in doubt would not vote Con anyway, but more likely abstain.

On leaving from the old (now replaced) Doha Airport, I was just being driven to the steps of my plane in a limousine when I noticed that Air Force Two (with Colin Powell on board, as I later discovered, though probably not aboard at that exact moment), was parked right next to it. In retrospect, part of the diplomatic build-up to the invasion of Iraq which occurred 2 years later.

There are always small events, and there is always chatter, before larger events occur. One reason why it is so suspicious that the Israelis claim that the events near Gaza in early October 2023 came as a complete surprise to them.

The old adage about how investigators should “always follow the money” applies a fortiori to the egregious Lewis.

As I have said on the blog previously, I pity anyone who instructs Lewis as solicitor (at least anyone who does not have a rather simple and easily-won, indeed “open-and-shut”, case).

More or less where my educated guess of several months ago ended up, though lighter on SNP seats and heavier on LibDem seats.

The only two where the range is relatively unimportant are Labour, which is (however unmeritoriously) on track for a massive win, it seems, and the LibDems, who seem likely to do modestly well or quite well purely by default, by being the “dustbin” or “tactical vote” choice.

All the rest? Either getting a bloc of significance, or almost nothing. Even the Con result will be very different on 34 MPs (a near wipeout) compared to 99 MPs (very poor but still just about in the game).

Starmer and his cabal are a collective waste of space, but this time next week they will constitute the “politburo” of an “elected” dictatorship.

There’s something wrong with a system which not only promotes people such as Beth Rigby (who has a speech impediment…yet is on TV and radio for a living), but pays them hundreds of thousands of pounds a year.

“The astonishing victory by the Right tonight in the first round of the French general election where Le Pen’s National Rally received 34.5% trouncing the Left alliance ( 29%) and destroying Macron ( 20%) augurs well for Nigel Farage and Reform. I suspect our voters will no longer believe a vote for Reform is wasted vote. They will view it as a chance to change the political narrative once and for all just as it’s doing in France. Anything could happen on Thursday.”

[Kelvin MacKenzie]

Must be the first time I have ever agreed with Kelvin MacKenzie.

That is my feeling, “unscientific” or not.

Huge numbers of people are getting desperate for social-national change. Reform UK is only halfway —if that— there, but it is a start, a start which can smash the “two main parties” scam, change the dynamics of UK politics (if it does well enough on Thursday), and move the “Overton Window”, or at least start to move it.

I suspect that many will say “**** it!” and put their crosses next to Reform UK on Thursday, as a last-minute decision. I may be wrong, but that is my feeling anyway.

Would Sunak raise a crowd that big? That is not even a question. 10, yes, 100, doubtful. 5,000? Ha ha…

What about Starmer? Maybe a few hundred (organized by the Labour machine)…maybe.

Whatever the voters want now, it is not the hopeless and ridiculous Conservative Party; not really Labour either, or the LibDems. They will profit only by default.

Who are the 10% or maybe 15% still voting Con? Must be lifelong unthinking habit-voters, mostly those in extreme old age, in my view.

Frankly, I doubt whether the Cons will even get to 20% in this General Election.

BBC Question Time is a show so biased, and serving a System agenda, that it would not have been out of place in the Soviet Union. Look at what happened to Nick Griffin about 14 years ago. A complete and rigged lynching.

There should be a massive purge of the cultural sector generally.

Tom Harwood is a horrible little bastard. A typical “knows the price of everything and the value of nothing” careerist.

Yes, they will take “just” 1% of the Green Belt…at first. That covers a year or two of the “need” for new “homes”. A couple of years later, with another 1M+ immigrants to house, guess what? Another 1% (or more) of the Green Belt will be “needed”. And so on…

All that will feed money to housebuilding giants and banks and, down the line, to organizations such as GB News, and to talking heads such as Tom Harwood.

As tweeted there, “Labour” has no, or no effective, plan, because (just like the “Conservatives”) they want more immigration. Evil. Treacherous. Coudenhove-Kalergi puppets.

Ha ha! The face of that silly woman (as seen in the clip) was a picture! Veritas omnia vincit…

“The consumption of material resources using the photovoltaic technology is at least 64 times that of nuclear energy. For the production of the solar-grade silicon for one square meter of panel area it requires 3.5 kg of concentrated hydrochloric acid. The weight of concrete, steel and chemicals used, such as acids/ bases, etchants, elemental gases, dopants, photolithographic chemicals etc. are never included. PV technology is more than 7 times more labor intensive than other energy sources. They never include disposing of the worn out panels, recycling copper wiring etc. after solar farms have reached end of life. So when they tell you solar makes back the energy used to build and maintain them in X amount of time, they are actually lying to you.”

Interesting, nicht wahr, that all these supposed imperative “needs”, such as concreting over the English countryside to provide “homes” (mostly for migrant-invaders), or creating massive solar farms in the countryside or, indeed, creating fake “vaccines” and the “need” for this, that, or the other anti-“pandemic” equipment and services, always seem to mean massive profit for greedy landowners, farmers, giant companies, the mass media organizations etc?

GE 2024 may be nailed on for Labour, but there is everything still to play for in respect of Reform UK; also, in terms of really wiping out (or not) the totally useless “Conservative” Party. Still 4 days or so to go before the campaign is at an end. About a fifth of eligible voters are still unsure whether to bother voting, and/or where to place their cross.

If Reform UK only gets about 15% or 16% across the board, then that will be underwhelming, though it should sink the Conservative Party. In that event, Reform would probably get only one or two MPs. If, on the other hand, Reform can get about 23%, then it might end up with 50+ MPs, and the map of British politics will have been irrevocably changed.

James Whale [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Whale_(radio_presenter)] and his co-host (who he?) are just two Israel-lobby monkeys-on-sticks at the bad-joke Talk Radio/Talk TV, which hardly anyone sees or hears.

Talk TV, one of the Murdoch assets, was one of the few msm outlets to report on my free speech trial sentencing hearing. It managed to get the sentence completely wrong, stating that I had been “jailed“!

That interviewee was right. Talk TV/Talk Radio are indeed “clowns“.

The mass media are under (((control))), just as the entire political system is monitored and controlled. Once even a mild-ish small-c conservative party such as Reform UK starts to become popular with the masses, the control starts to become more heavy-handed. It is pretty blatant.

What other party could do this in the Britain of 2024? Brexit Party did it, on a smaller scale, but Farage stabbed it in the back. This time, he obviously plans to take it to the end (Election Day).

Like the end of the 1934 Nuremberg rally, but without a proper social-national party, movement, ideology, or leader.

Still, if it destroys at least half of the “two main parties” scam, and moves the “Overton Window” a bit (or a lot), I am relatively happy…

Incidentally, if you do not see the (superficial) parallel to 1934 Nuremberg, see the video below [at/from 1hr 30 mins]

Well, it is a start…

“With the IFS questioning how Labour and the Tories are going to fund their manifesto pledges, the public are similarly sceptical: % who think each party’s promises are…

Affordable / Unaffordable Con promises: 14% / 57% Lab promises: 22% / 47%

Realistic / Unrealistic Con promises: 14% / 62% Lab promises: 25% / 47%

Good for Britain / Bad for Britain Con promises: 22%/ 52% Lab promises: 37% / 35%.”

Incredibly, the Cons are seen as worse on all those questions.

This Government is toast. Toast.

Most people realize that “democracy” is largely a sham.

“In 2015 I met this Palestinian farmer, Abdel-Majeed, on the West Bank. Israeli settlers were attacking him and stealing his land, and I thought the situation was about as bad as it could get. No, it has gotten much worse.

I revisited him last week, during a week-long trip through Israel and the West Bank, and I found that settlers have burned his cars and destroyed his tractor. They have cut down his olive trees and set his sheep shed on fire. They tried to break into his house when his granddaughter was home. Now his wife is arguing that they should give up their home, for fear of being burned alive by settlers.

This is life on the West Bank today. It doesn’t get as much attention as Gaza, but the situation is desperate. And the US is largely AWOL. I know it feels a long way away, but this is central to the Middle East crisis and is one reason I fear the crisis will get worse.

Here’s my report: https://nyti.ms/3ROOfNs“

My feeling, with a mere 5 days to go before Election Day, is that, firstly and obviously, the Conservative Party has reached the end of its road.

What does it even pretend to stand for now? It has embraced every sort of “woke” nonsense over the past 14 years, and even tried to hit Reform UK yesterday with the accusation that a Reform UK activist criticized a police car flying a “Pride” (LGBTQXYZ) flag. How is such criticism even controversial? The police should not be flying socially or politically contentious flags.

The Conservative Party has also presided over the migration invasion, trying to manage the influx of millions of non-Europeans (over a million a year now) but never seriously trying to stop it; indeed, encouraging “legal” migration, which is 95% of all migration-invasion. Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.

As for living standards, straight down, and set to continue, under Labour plunging ever-lower. That may give social-nationalism an opening quite soon (but there has to be a movement to capture the sentiment).

My view about Reform UK is that many of those who favour it have already voted, via the postal ballot. Most of the rest who are leaning to Reform UK will not be put off by the contrived scandal in Clacton; some may even like the outspoken comments aired on Channel 4.

There is also the point that maybe 20% of eligible voters are either not going to vote, or are still uncertain. Few will vote Con. They —in my opinion— will not, most of them, vote Lab either. So either Reform UK, LibDem, or Green. I should say that Reform UK will get more than the LibDems, maybe more than the LibDems and Greens combined. Even if that only boosts Reform UK’s vote-share by 2 or 3 points, so from ?18% or ?20% to 21% or maybe as high as 24%, that would be mega in terms of the ultimate results.

If, as seems, anything from 5% to 20% of voters are only going to decide in the last days of the campaign, or even on the day, that means that there is still much to play for.

Hopefully, when/if Trump becomes President again, American support for the Kiev regime will be scaled back and maybe stopped altogether. Other NATO states, and other states yet, will then and consequently rethink their pro-“Ukraine” (Kiev regime) stances.

The war will then grind to a halt within, at most, a few weeks. Zelensky and his cabal will flee, or be captured, or killed, and Russia will be able to redraw the map in suitable fashion, ruling the “Russian” part east of the Dnieper and along the coasts of the Sea of Azov and Black Sea, as well as Crimea; the rest of Ukraine can be an independent or autonomous state or territory centred on Lvov, peacefully and unthreateningly ruling its own lands and population. About half of Ukrainian territory as it was pre-2022.

As for Zelensky, if he survives, he and his wife can go to one of his villas in the Americas (Gulf Coast Florida, and/or the Caribbean), or to Israel, there to live off his stolen billions.

The System parties want even something as semi-System as Reform UK to be squashed flat by propaganda lies and by State repression (and electoral trickery). Is this really “democracy”?

“Simon Myerson’s unwavering confidence in his views, despite compelling evidence he is obviously wrong, puzzles me. He posted to accuse Assange of causing deaths.

And Assange’s sentencing judge has now confirmed nobody suffered physical harm. Will Myerson delete his false allegation about Assange? No chance.”

Clacton and Reform UK

The System is now getting very worried about the level of support being shown even for Reform UK, a basically small-c conservative-type party. The anti-Reform UK rhetoric is now close to that displayed in the past against more social-national parties such as the BNP and, further back still, the National Front.

The System thinking must be, “if even Reform UK can be so disruptive, how more so would be a credible and genuinely social-national party?“

That anti-Reform UK propaganda is broadcast as Reform UK reaches heights of popular support few thought that it would or could reach.

Some polls are putting Reform UK as high as 20%, and all are putting it well above 15%, the average now being around 17%.

Meanwhile, support for the Conservative Party has dropped to as low as 18%, and may go even lower. I have just yesterday heard admittedly anecdotal evidence that, in my own local area (in coastal Hampshire, and one of the most heavily-Con in England), lifelong Con voters are planning to vote anywhere other than Con or Labour. Many, perhaps most (?), are switching to Reform UK, and some to the LibDems.

I was just looking at my blog from about 8 or 9 months ago. I thought then that Reform UK would get a nationwide popular vote of at least 15% and, at the outside, 20%. Seems that I was right (so far).

Estimates of the number of MPs Reform UK might have by 5 July 2024, i.e. once the votes are counted, range from 1 or 2 to as many as 22. A few Reform UK optimists are doubling or even tripling that. It seems very open, with less than a week to go.

I doubt whether the Channel 4 undercover silliness will change the minds of many people planning to vote Reform UK, as witness the tweets below:

In any case, Channel 4 News is only seen by a small minority of people. Only about 4.5% of the viewing public even watch Channel 4 overall, so maybe 1% or 2% (?): https://deadline.com/2023/06/channel-4-woes-deepen-ratings-historic-low-1235417804/; https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-12199071/Panic-Channel-4-viewing-figures-plummet-historic-low.html.

I doubt that more than a few hundred of the voters of Clacton will have even seen the “expose”. In any case, the main person shown was merely a volunteer. It may even be that some people will be more inclined to vote for Reform after having seen the Channel 4 piece. You never know.

There is also the point that postal voting has already taken place. Many of the older and/or disabled British voters, as at Clacton, will by now have voted.

Farage seems nailed-on to win at Clacton, as far as I can see. The Conservative Party candidate has not even been seen (by me anyway) on TV or online, while the young African standing as Labour MP has apparently been redeployed to help another Labour candidate, in the West Midlands, and has thus left the field of battle at Clacton.

I can only suppose that Starmer decided that only the Con candidate had any chance of beating Farage, having scored 72.3% in 2019, so scaled back the Labour effort at Clacton to zero for nakedly tactical reasons.

Also, the fact that Labour deliberately chose an African for its candidate at Clacton, of all places, would be likely to prompt a surge in support for Reform UK. Anyway, he’s gone elsewhere, and will probably not be seen at Clacton until the count on Election Night. I still think that he might lose his deposit.

As blogged previously, while I am not a Reform UK supporter, as such, its existence moves the “Overton Window” a bit, at the very least, and will help to break down the “two main parties” scam.

The public’s view of the mostly System politicians is not favourable. Even Starmer, on the crest of his “popularity by default”, is only viewed favourably by just over a third of voters.

Look at Sunak. Only 19%, the same as the Conservative Party. I begin to wonder whether previously undecided voters will actually start to pile in against the Conservative Party now, or at the last minute, thus reducing the Conservative vote to somewhere below that 19%, maybe as low as 16%. We shall know in 6 days’ time.

I should say “80% that’s broken“, not “everything“. Otherwise, I agree.

As Hitler said, “dirty democratic politicians“…[Mein Kampf].

The African will probably get about 4% of the vote, and lose his deposit.

This is incredible. It does not necessarily mean that the Channel 4 “expose” was a fix, but it certainly raises questions.

How did Channel 4 News come to fasten upon that particular person for its undercover filming?

My view: both main System parties should be eliminated.

Gavin Barwell really is an utterly stupid person, yet there he sits in the House of Lords, getting nearly £400 a day (taxfree) any (sitting) day on which he chooses to turn up for 30 minutes and have his name ticked off… https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gavin_Barwell.

Yes. If all Con-leaning or anti-Lab-leaning voters were to vote Reform UK, Reform UK could just about win at Dover; even then it might be very close. One thing is for sure— the Con candidate cannot win.

So Giles Watling is still alive… I had seen and heard nothing from the retired actor since the Clacton campaign started. I assumed that he had fallen into his soup and drowned at the Garrick Club.

Watling has nothing in common with most Clacton voters. Hopeless.

The Jew Zelensky thinks that there can be a “peace summit” without Russia’s participation (unless Russia were to effectively surrender). He’s a con-man who has stolen billions.

I tend to agree, up to a point, with that last tweeter. Yes, the Cons are doomed, but look at what the Labour Party now is! A mixture of Blair-Brown-style fake communitarian rhetoric, “woke” craziness, “Ukraine” (Kiev regime) partisanship, and pro-Israel-ism, combined with pro-Jewish lobby repression of free speech and, in terms of domestic policy, almost indistinguishable in reality from the policies of the Conservative Party.

Incidentally, it is Bicester and Woodstock, a new constituency, not just Woodstock. That may explain the close polling.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicester_and_Woodstock_(UK_Parliament_constituency).

Even Reform UK has more support among the under-30s in the UK, especially in England, than many suppose. A real social-national party might be able to capture far more hearts and minds.

This really is stunning. If accurate, it may mean a House of Commons with 483 Labour MPs (overall majority 316), 73 LibDems, 27 Reform UK, and only 22 Con Party MPs (SNP 18, Green 4 etc). https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html.

It would mean the LibDems as official Opposition, and Reform UK with several more MPs (27 in toto) than the rump of the old Conservative Party (22), which would not be the Opposition, not even third party, but a poor fourth. Finished. Washed-up.

I have yet to meet, in the past month or even longer, even one person who expresses an intention to vote Con. There may be some people I meet who intend to vote Con without my knowing it, of course; I meet relatively few people, and rarely talk directly about politics with most of those that I do meet. All the same…

In fact, and by my use of Electoral Calculus, it may be that, were Reform UK to poll at 24%, only 3 points higher than in this latest poll, Reform could edge the LibDems out of second place, which would mean Reform UK as the official Opposition, and Farage as Leader of the Opposition! Were that to happen, I should have to eat my words of a year or two ago (dismissing him as not such an effective politician despite his oratorical and mass media skills).

We shall soon know.

“Brutal” is the word. Whatever one may think of Trump and his overall fitness for office, it is clear that Biden should now go into retirement.

“The Labour parliamentary candidate for Poole, Neil Duncan-Jordan, said he and others have been targeted with ’disgusting and disrespectful’ comments.

He said he had been called a ‘white traitor’ and told that ‘Adolf Hitler had the right idea’.

Mr Duncan-Jordan has called on his counterparts in the election to distance themselves from antisemitism, racism and hate crime following a number of incidents he and his supporters have faced.

Mr Duncan-Jordan said: “In the last few days there have been three separate incidents that have caused me concern. I’ve been called a ‘white traitor’, one of my supporters was spat at and I was told that “Adolf Hitler had the right idea.”

“I think it’s important that all candidates in this election come out clearly and say that antisemitism, racism and fascist views have absolutely no place in modern Britain.

“Spitting at someone because you don’t like their political views is disgusting and disrespectful. We cannot allow this kind of behaviour to become the acceptable norm.”

The candidate has reported the incidents to the police.“

[Bournemouth Echo]

Well, while I would never condone spitting at (or for that matter, throwing milkshakes over) people (as a Labour supporter did to Farage recently), if a candidate wants to knock on people’s doors to engage them in political debate, he must expect some of his “victims” to cut up rough, bearing in mind what the System parties have been doing to this country.

Liam Booth-Smith is reported to have spoken to the Gambling Commission last week to help the watchdog understand who may have known when polling day would be.

Sources stressed to the BBC that the PM’s top adviser – dubbed the ‘Treasury Travolta’ during Mr Sunak’s time as Chancellor due to his fondness for leather jackets – is not a suspect in the regulator’s investigation and had not placed a bet himself.“

Can you believe it, even today, as the UK goes into a tailspin? The Chief of Staff of the UK Prime Minister— and look at the bastard!

“Liam Booth-Smith (born 1987) is a British political adviser who has served as the Downing Street Chief of Staff since October 2022. He previously served as de facto chief of staff to then-chancellor Rishi Sunak as head of the Joint Economic Unit.

Booth-Smith was born in 1987[2] in Stoke on Trent and was raised by a single mother.[3] He read politics and social policy at Loughborough University. Booth-Smith was appointed as Downing Street Chief of Staff in October 2022 after Rishi Sunak‘s accession as prime minister. He succeeded Mark Fullbrook.

In 2023 the New Statesman named him as the ninth most powerful figure in British Right-Wing Politics.”

I know that I often expostulate in this vein, but this country really is ****** on so many levels…

In the 1970s, Britain still had many avenues open to it. Now, it is as if (?) we are painted into a corner, with almost nowhere to turn.

2024-2029…perhaps in the next few years there will, at long last, emerge the popular social-national movement that can sweep all before it.

When I stayed for three weeks with a French couple, in Paris, in 1971 (at age 14), I was taken once by car through an area my host referred to as the “quartier arabe“. Now it seems that much of Paris is the “quartier africaine“…

What about a population of ~70 million (the UK)?

Talking point

An idealized but not really untruthful view of how parts of England were in the 1950s, or even early 1960s, if you forget the 1930s-style bus in the background.

Incidentally, I was watching a “true crime” documentary about a series of appalling murders carried out by some crazed half-caste in the mid-1980s, the “Stockwell Strangler” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenneth_Erskine], who, incidentally, is still detained in a mental hospital.

What struck me as much as anything is how smart the uniformed police still looked back then; one forgets. No beards, no stubble, no tattoos, and wearing shirts and ties and neat uniforms. What a contrast to the often untidy-looking rabble they (especially in London?) are today, with their beards and tattoos.

A parody very close to the truth.

Sometimes, as I navigate along the potholed and badly-patched highways in the area where I live (supposedly one of the most affluent in England), thinking about things, I think that this country is so ****** that only some kind of very radical, indeed revolutionary, change will be able to give it a decent future.

Our animal friends…

The very picture of self-regarding entitlement. I wrote an assessment of Rory Stewart several years ago, and much-updated since: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/05/03/will-rory-stewart-mp-be-prime-minister/.

Needless to say, my views on the current migration-invasion are not unalike to those of Suella Braverman, but I do not need some Mauritian Indian bas-class import to tell me what to think. Anyway, she is married to a Jewish Zionist, and supports Israel to the hilt, so nein, danke!

“For Ukrainian troops, a difficult situation has developed on the battlefield, said the head of intelligence of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense Kirill Budanov in an interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer. This is how he answered the journalist’s question whether the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be able to stop the advance of Russian troops.”

Will truth now start to break out in the newsrooms of the Western msm?

Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose it.

Kiev-regime “Ukraine” is not even a “failed state”— it is scarcely a state at all.

Huge numbers of Israeli Jews are dual passport-holders.

Clacton

“Nigel Farage is on course to win the Clacton seat with a 27 point lead in a devastating blow to the Conservatives.

The Clacton Constituency poll, conducted by JL Partners on behalf of Friderichs Advisory Partners, has Farage polling at 48 per cent while the Tory leader sits back at 21 per cent of the vote share.

Farage is leading in every age group apart from the 18 to 34-year-olds and only one in five 2019 Conservative voters are sticking to the party.“

[GB News]

I presume by “Tory leader“, GB News means “Conservative Party candidate“(?), unless the reference is to Sunak in his Richmond (Yorkshire) constituency.

I predicted previously on the blog that the Labour candidate at Clacton would bomb, maybe even losing his deposit. Let’s see.

Even the Sun “newspaper” has given up on the Sunak government.

Yes, 800 a day crossing the Channel, being ferried most of the way by the bloody “Border Force” farce and others, such as the RNLI, but what about the other invaders, 4,000+ per day, coming in quasi-“legally”?

Starmer-Labour will stop the smaller influx, the “small boats” influx, to a large extent, by simply rubberstamping 90% or more of the applications before they even get here, doing it in France, after which the invaders will simply get onto a ferry in Calais and will be here 2-3 hours later.

Both System parties are complicit, and are facilitating the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan.

I do not think that I can be accused of being overly pro-Arab, let alone pro-Islamist, and I might be induced to agree that the attack on Israel in October 2023 should not have happened (for the good of all sides), but what Israel has done since then has been utterly abhorrent, and it continues to do the same or similar.
