The brutal, corrupt, and shambolic dictatorship of the Jew Zelensky.

The Kiev regime’s crumbling front lines are manned by people dragged off the street kicking and screaming. Little pay, not much rotation out of the front line, and no discharge (until the war ends, which might be years away) for those who escape being killed, horribly wounded, or captured. No wonder Ukrainian men will do anything to avoid being drafted.

[“Zelensky blames the weather for Russian gains on the front lines After a briefing from Commander-in-Chief Syrsky, he called the situation in Pokrovsk and Zaporozhye “difficult,” specifically citing conditions that favor Russian assaults Recent footage confirms heavy fog has likely grounded Ukraine’s crucial drone fleet, which compensates for a severe manpower shortage“]

Exactly. If the order were given, Kiev could be a smoking, nuclear-irradiated wasteland within half an hour or less. That is not Putin’s wish. He wants a productive Eastern Ukraine under Russian rule, and/or to restore the ancient link between Moscow and Kiev, which after all existed until 1991.

[“Look at the pic. This is Ukraine’s Minister of Energy, Svitlana Hrynchuk on a photo, who appears in recordings by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) in a major corruption case in the energy sector. She received kickbacks from embezzled funds allocated for the construction of protective infrastructure for the energy system—an initiative that received nearly $5 billion in funding from the United States alone. These defenses were never built. The money was stolen by people in Zelensky’s inner circle. The scheme was reportedly led by Zelensky’s close friend and personal “wallet,” Tymur Mindich. Yet Zelensky feels so secure in misappropriating U.S. funds that he placed one of the central figures in this corruption scheme right in front of the President of the United States. Hrynchuk is the common-law wife of former Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko, whom Zelensky reassigned as Minister of Justice after the investigation began. The previous Minister of Justice, Olga Stefanishyna – also charged by NABU in a separate corruption case now in court – was appointed as Ukraine’s Ambassador to the United States and is also on the table, right to the Hrynchuck. Zelensky brought a corrupt minister and sat her right in front of Trump. #TrueUkraine #ZelenskyLies.”]

Zelensky and his corrupt cabal should have had their ricebowls taken away long ago,

Ed Davey— an utter clown, whose party is only doing well because it is a dustbin for voters who can no longer vote Con or Lab, mostly Con.

I cannot say whether Morgan McSweeney is an actual Israeli agent “under control” or not; maybe, maybe not. Certainly an agent of influence.

Sterilization should be discussed.

Only Israel-fanatics and/or idiots take on Mark Lewis as their solicitor. Dishonest, negligent, and incompetent.

A General Election now, or soon, would result in a massive win for Reform UK; certainly a plurality of seats in the Commons, and quite likely an overall majority, perhaps a large one.

Talking point

An opinion poll, I think by YouGov, states that 60% of UK adults are generally in favour of the UK government’s “Net Zero” nonsense. Well, I do not overestimate the intelligence of most of my fellow Brits, but that seems hard to believe. Are they really that stupid, or so easily brainwashed? Thinking of the “panicdemic” Covid scam(demic), maybe they are. Depressing.

Interesting video about the Vanunu case

Whatever may be said about MOSSAD, there is little doubt that, over many decades, it has proven, repeatedly, its ability to undertake complex assignments, and to bring those assignments to a successful conclusion.

I found myself wondering how it was that, after Vanunu’s product found its way into the Sunday Times, MI5 was unaware of the fact that Vanunu was being honeytrapped?

Or was MI5 (and/or SIS/MI6) in fact perfectly aware, but let the thing continue? Why would MI5 or SIS do that? Well, maybe to keep UK-Israel relations stable by allowing (whether expressly or tacitly) MOSSAD to abduct Vanunu from a third country (as it turned out, Italy), thus allowing British services and government to wash their hands of it all. “Nothing to do with us, ‘guv”.

We shall only know for sure by reference to the records of MI5, SIS, or Israeli Intelligence, and that is not going to happen in our lifetimes.

Incidentally, the AI images in that video are interesting, real or adapted faces etc, and mixed with real locations (I got most of the London ones). The “Cindy” character, in parts of the video, had a face very similar to that of the young Christine Keeler [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christine_Keeler]. Presumably also AI-adapted.

A barrister speaks

Worth watching/hearing, but his final advice to join the so-called “Free Speech Union” hits a bum note.

The “FSU”, set up by Toby Young, has never once helped anyone attacked for their speech or online opinions by the Jew-Zionist lobby, aka Israel lobby, such as (most egregiously) the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA”, headed by a liar and perjurer called Gideon Falter, who is assisted by another liar, and maker of false accusations, called (by me) “Slitherman”, who calls himself their “Head of Investigations and Enforcement”. The sheer gall of the bastard! Incredible.

I have frequently blogged about their decade-long campaign against me, but they have also attacked many many others, ranging from persecuted satirist and singer Alison Chabloz, and jazz musician Gilad Atzmon, to David Icke etc, right through to large organizations such as the BBC and Al Jazeera.

At present, the “CAA” is privately prosecuting (criminally) several persons: Dr. David Miller, Nick Griffin, black comedian Reginald D. Hunter; others too. The “CAA” is also conspiring against people such as NHS doctor Dr. Rahmeh Aladwan.

The “CAA” even tried to get the Metropolitan Police Commissioner to resign (or to have him dismissed), and to that end contrived a street provocation using Gideon Falter, who then —once more— lied to get what he wanted but, as often in the past, failed.

All of that activity is an abuse of the English legal system, so-called “lawfare”, on behalf of Israel and its fanatical fifth column in the UK.

So what has the “Free Speech Union” had to say about the “CAA” and its abusive behaviour (including its attacks on me)? Nothing. So to me, the FSU is the same— nothing.

Morning thought

The recent Manchester incident has permitted the Zionist-controlled mass media to deflect from the continuing heartless slaughter inflicted by [Israeli] Jews in Gaza and elsewhere, to deflect from the scandal around Morgan McSweeney and the Labour Friends of Israel Jewish/Israeli cabal that put Starmer into power and, to a lesser extent (the perpetrator having been yet another immigrant murderer), to deflect from the continuing migration-invasion by illegal immigrants etc.

I do not say that the Manchester incident was actually done as a planned “psy-op” —not at all— but, it having happened, it has been seized upon enthusiastically and gratefully by both the System msm (major news outlets), and “approved” scribblers and talking heads such as Dan Hodges; and also by the “controlled opposition”, such as Matt Goodwin etc, as well as by, predictably, the outright and open Jew-Zionist lobby propagandists.

Angela Rayner. Now pretty much washed-up politically, but she very nearly became Britain’s first “chavscum” Prime Minister.

Oh dear. Penny Mordaunt, who lost her Commons seat in 2024, and who was pointedly not offered a peerage, tries, rather pathetically, to get the Jewish lobby to back her hopeless attempt to get back into Parliament.

Ms. Mordaunt had better accept that, as a woman without a Commons seat, and unlikely now to be offered one (unless she joins Reform, which is also unlikely), and with the Conservative Party rapidly draining down the plughole, she should just try to get some paid work elsewhere for the next 14 years until she can get a pension. She is now 52. The System has already thrown her a couple of (fairly lucrative?) crumbs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penny_Mordaunt#Post-parliamentary_career.

The Conservative Party is finished.

A clever cartoon, conflating Kemi Badenoch’s stewardship of the flagging Conservative Party with the recent accession of a “priestess” as Archbishop of Canterbury.

Both unsuitable, of course.

What “they” really fear, though, is intelligent, thinking “antisemitism”…

According to Electoral Calculus, that would translate to a Commons with about 379 Reform MPs (a very solid majority), Lab 107, LibDem 61, Con 38, SNP 33, Greens 5, Plaid 5 (etc).

Castles in the air, castles in Spain. Surprising, and it seems that, nearly a decade ago, I was far too cautious:

In fact, the situation is even more alarming, because almost all births in the UK now are either to women born outside the UK (almost all non-white), or to women whose parentage or grand-parentage was outside the UK (almost all non-white), or to women who have been impregnated by non-whites.

Very few full-blood white English/British children are now being born.

I was unsure whether the Conservative Party Conference had started, it has had so little impact. seems that it will be very low-key, with few attendees. Nice to see that the animals are being championed, though.

Jewish-Zionist scribbler “has a lot of time for” puppet of Israel and the Jewish lobby, Michael Gove (a drunk, drug-abuser, and expenses cheat, among other defaults). Quelle surprise...

The Guardian‘s assessment of the Conference:

https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/oct/04/conservative-conference-like-going-to-in-laws-apathy-kemi-badenoch

Few people doubt that Kemi Badenoch faces what could be a make-or-break Conservative party conference this weekend. However, some members are not so worried about regicide so much as a more prosaic threat: sheer apathy.

“For every conference, as long as I can remember, I’ve gone for three or four days. This time it’s a day trip,” one senior party activist said. “Quite frankly, I’m thinking: ‘What’s the point in going for any longer?’ I know of lots of other people doing the same thing.”

Badenoch will in fact walk on to the main stage twice: first for a “welcome speech” to delegates on Sunday, and then for the more traditional leader’s address on Wednesday afternoon.

“I do wonder if they might have to shepherd some people into the hall to fill it up on Sunday,” one activist said. “I’m really not sure how many people will have arrived yet.

Not all hope was lost, they argued: “There is a narrow path in which we carry on being sensible and diligent, Reform fall apart, and voters think: they’re the best alternative to Labour. It’s not the most optimistic of tactics but it’s also pretty much the only one we have right now.”

One shadow minister was less optimistic: “Mine was always a safe seat. But with the number of Reform councillors since May, most realistically I’ll spend the next two or three years deciding what I want to do with the rest of my life.”]

[Guardian]

Washed-up. I expect that a few hundred people will turn up, many of them journalists, and a few lobbyists (fewer than in the past now that the Cons are unlikely to be part of the next UK government).

Another view: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/kemi-badenoch-immigration-tory-conference-speech-b2839686.html

“...the huge Manchester Central conference centre was noticeably quiet on the first day with many corporate sponsors staying away and relatively few members and others attending what would normally be a crowded conference.

Half empty trains went from London to Manchester while hotels still were offering rooms at off-peak rates.

Having seen a few short clips of Kemi Badenoch addressing the Con Party conference, the audience seemed to consist of no more than 100-150 people, as far as could be seen. The audience as a whole was not shown, no doubt because the numbers were embarrassingly small. In fact, it looked as if Ms. Badenoch’s audience was no larger than mine at the London Forum in 2017— that was about 150 (at max.) I think.

I have seen, today, some still photos of the Con Party conference: whole areas set up for crowds, but without people, a bit like the performative propaganda pieces called “Nightingale hospitals” during the 2020-2022 Covid “panicdemic”.

[Update, later same day:

I now see that there were several hundred attending; still poor by comparison with 15-20 years ago, let alone the 1980s]

Exactly. Those 14% to 16% polling results now being seen represent the last hurrah of elderly people who have voted Conservative since the 1950s, in many cases. Even many of those are now going to vote Reform (as I myself have been told in recent months; anecdotal, yes, but convincing).

I imagine that, by 2029, the likely year of the next UK general election, that Con vote might have slipped as low as 10%, as many present Con voters pass into history.

As that polling expert says, few voters love Farage or Reform, but most people want rid of both Con and Lab. Reform is the only game in town at present.

My view has been made clear on the blog. I want Reform to crush Lab and Con; but then, after Reform itself is found wanting, the voters might be ready for social nationalism, whether voted in, or installed via some other route.

Civilians should never have been taken hostage by Hamas operatives, though naturally I understand that Hamas felt that it needed them as a bargaining chip (and of course Israel has hostages too, in effect, albeit called “detainees” or some such).

The Jewish hostages should have been released long ago, in fact not long after their capture. Their imprisonment has given Israel the best propaganda it could muster during its genocidal flattening of Gaza and the killing (murder, if you like) of so many Gazan civilians by the Israeli Jew armed forces.

That Daisley individual is a hard-core Jew-Zionist scribbler, one of those involved in the concerted “lawfare” attack on academic James Wilson a year or so ago. The trial judge disbelieved the Jewish witnesses, and Wilson won in court.

Ostalgie:

I have blogged a few times in the past about my own impressions, during a very brief visit to the DDR (East Germany) in summer 1988. Slightly odd, slightly unreal, more like a stage set of a state rather than a real state.

Stray thought

I have seen continuing news reports, for 2 days now, about the terrible funicular railway crash in Lisbon: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c62lmed42p1o.

Not just TV news reports, but reports leading the TV news.

This seems to me like overkill, really. After all, terrible as the crash was, killing 16 people, it was 2 days ago, no-one is still trapped or requiring rescue, plenty of major news is happening elsewhere and, in the end, this did not even happen in the UK. A straightforward crash incident, which happened in seconds, or a few minutes, which was a one-off incident, and the causes of which will no doubt be investigated (very likely a cable problem, possibly metal fatigue, and insufficient maintenance). Yet the BBC and Sky News still have reporters on the scene. Why? Enough.

Angela Rayner

Well, Angela Rayner, whose “resistible rise” must have given hope to ambitious, brainless, cultureless “chav” women all over Britain, is now gone: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/sep/05/angela-rayner-stands-down-over-stamp-duty-row.

Whatever the exact rights and wrongs of Angela Rayner’s (latest) property purchase, the background to the matter was the “fill your boots” mentality with which this Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment is suffused.

It became known a year ago that Angela Rayner had accepted gifts of clothes, I think also cash donations, and free trips to noisy vulgar clubs in Ibiza, the appalling nightclub, drink, and drugs island. Not that she was alone in accepting “freebies”. Her boss, Starmer-stein, had accepted clothes for himself and his Jewish wife, and even free eye-glasses!

Angela Rayner also postponed, on rather spurious grounds, some of the previously-scheduled 2025 UK local elections, which postponements—whatever the reasons for postponement— looked bad at a time when Labour was already losing ground greatly to Reform UK.

The postponed local elections will now not take place until May 2026. Both Labour and Conservative parties must be dreading them.

That whole “fill your boots” or “make hay while the sun is shining” mentality, which pervades Starmer’s Labour Friends of Israel cabal, was also a major factor putting paid to the Conservative Party’s electoral chances in 2024, after years of crony-corruption under (mainly) “Boris”-idiot, Liz Truss (briefly, in her 49 days as PM), and the little Indian money-juggler, Sunak.

So what now for Angela Rayner? She had been puffed as the successor to Starmer. Perhaps, though that seems far less likely now, bearing in mind the public perception of her. Some may think her a greedy, moneygrasping, “typical MP”; others say “it was not her fault, because she failed to take obvious steps to avoid the situation which arose“. Well, so not dishonest, simply careless and/or clueless? Not a very good impression either way.

In any case, Labour is now facing a really major challenge from Reform UK, which is really just the public’s proxy method for “getting rid of both Lab and Con“. The idea that Angela Rayner might be the next Prime Minister always seemed to me unlikely to happen, and now seems a very remote possibility indeed.

As to Rayner herself, the resignation will hit her rather hard financially. Loss of her Government position means that her salary is halved, she now being left with “only” the (just under) £94,000 p.a. MP salary (and attendant expenses). She now also loses whatever access she may have had to the country houses used on weekends by Government ministers. There are smaller hits as well, such as loss of the government cars and drivers that ferry ministers around.

Wider political fallout? Well, just another hit that Starmer could have done without. The Reform annual conference is taking place now, and Angela Rayner may be good ammunition for Farage. Also, the news will mute any criticism of Reform people for whatever they may say during the conference.

In any case, people are intending to vote Reform to stamp on Lab and Con, so anything negative in the msm about Farage and Reform will not, I think, have much effect, because people already know that Farage and especially his cohorts are not the best and brightest. That makes little difference to how people are intending to vote.

Riverbanks

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/sep/05/fears-for-england-riverbank-habitats-amid-relaxed-post-brexit-rules

Huge tracts of precious riverside habitats for water voles and other wildlife in England are being lost as they are not covered by post-Brexit farming rules, campaigners warn.

New analysis by the Wildlife Trusts found more than 400 square km of riverside habitat in England may have been lost since the UK left the EU in 2020.

Under the common agricultural policy (CAP), which subsidised farming when the UK was in the bloc, farmers had to keep a 2-metre buffer between their fields and the rivers. But with the UK’s exit from the CAP, farmers may try to increase their income by ploughing to the edge of their field – an area that, at present, is unprofitable for them.

As well as being a critical habitat for wildlife, waterway banks are home to plants that filter pollution from the water.

[Guardian]

As regular readers of the blog know, I am not very pleased about the farming lobby. Not all farmers are greedy, moneygrasping, environmentally-destructive nuisances, but many are.

I remember that on TV from the early 1960s, when I was about 5 or 6 years old.

For me, the point is not that Nadine Dorries is an idiotic woman, an expenses-blodger and outright fraud, or that “Boris”-idiot and Liz Truss are nominally (and only nominally) better-educated versions of the same brainless type, but that the whole political system we now have in the UK promotes such cretins, selects them as candidates etc.

My view is that the Reform candidates are relatively unpolished, most of them, so the relative absence of the bright lights of msm publicity and exposure might actually help Reform. That may sound cynical, but the old System parties are just waiting for Farage’s candidates to slip on banana skins.

So former fraudulent expenses-cheat and puppet of the Jewish/Israel lobby, Ed Balls (husband of similar Yvette Cooper; they are both members of Labour Friends of Israel) has his latest rubbish political prediction blown out of the water only one day after he made it! An idiotic person, despite the quite academic CV; hugely over-promoted.

I had not previously heard of this person or of his crimes. It does beg the questions around Nature v.

In other words, someone evidently monstrous, but at the same time someone made monstrous, arguably. It would be interesting to compare the life-stories of his several siblings.

I have a shrewd idea (or maybe not so shrewd— we shall see…) that “30p Lee” Anderson may have jettisoned the Conservative Party rather than the other way around. After all, the Con Party is staring down the barrel of an electoral meltdown which may finish off arguably the longest-surviving political party in the world.

The Conservative Party was looking at quite likely defeat in Anderson’s constituency, but now maybe not (if Anderson is reinstated). If Anderson is not reinstated, he may well be able to stay on as MP either as an Independent or, more likely, after having stood as Reform Party candidate. He now has real national profile.

I blogged about this a few days ago: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2024/02/24/diary-blog-24-february-2024-2/: see below

Lee Anderson, and Ashfield (Derbyshire)

The maverick MP has been suspended from being under the Conservative Party whip.

Naturally, I do not agree with his statement that London is “run by Muslims”. Sadiq Khan is from a Muslim background, but has been pretty much in the Jew-Zionist pocket for many years.

It would be more accurate to characterize Sadiq Khan as “anti-white”.

As to Anderson himself, I suggest that he is trying to bolster his position vis a vis the General Election expected later this year.

Until 2019, Ashfield had always been won by Labour since its inception in 1955, with one closely-run by-electoral exception in 1977. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashfield_(UK_Parliament_constituency)#Elections_in_the_2020s. “New Labour” and Gloria de Piero changed all that.

David Marquand, a former MP for Ashfield (1966-1977; he is still alive, at 89): “Originally a tentative supporter of Blair’s New Labour, he has since become a trenchant critic, arguing that “New Labour has ‘modernised’ the social-democratic tradition out of all recognition”, even while retaining the over-centralisation and disdain for the radical intelligentsia of the old “Labourite” tradition.” [Wikipedia]. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Marquand.

Marquand defected to the SDP and then was honourable enough to step down as MP, not contesting the by-election.

In fact, Marquand was himself rather intellectual:

“Marquand addressed Britain’s relative economic decline in The Unprincipled Society (1988) and The New Reckoning (1997). He argued that this decline was caused by Britain’s failure to become a developmental state like France, Germany and Japan. In those countries state intervention had encouraged industrial development and had facilitated the necessary adjustments to competition. Britain, however, was wedded to an economic liberalism which prevented the state from undertaking the necessary measures to meet the country’s developmental needs.[7] In The New Reckoning Marquand claimed: “The economies that have succeeded more spectacularly have been those fostered by developmental states, where public power, acting in concert with private interest, has induced market forces to flow in the desired direction”.[8]” [Wikipedia].

In fact, Ashfield is not quite as “safe Labour” as the history might suggest superficially. Gloria de Piero won in 2010 by a majority of under half a point (0.4%, 192 votes) from a LibDem.

While de Piero’s majority increased in 2015 (as the LibDems imploded), in 2017 she beat the Conservative candidate by less than one point (0.9%, 441 votes). An Ashfield Independent came third with over 9% of the vote.

In 2019, Lee Anderson won convincingly: 39.3% of the vote, followed in second (27.6%) by another “Ashfield Independent”, Jason Zadrozny [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Zadrozny], who has had a chequered political and personal history. In third place came Labour, with only 24.4%.

Zadrozny is going to contest the seat at GE 2024.

So far, apart from Anderson (who may or may not be standing as Conservative Party candidate, depending on whether he gets back the Conservative whip), only the Ashfield Independent and Reform UK are presently known to be likely to stand at GE 2024, but a full field is almost guaranteed. There may be a dozen or more candidates.

At first, I thought that Anderson could probably be written off as post-GE 2024 MP, but now am not so sure. He has now (whether by design or not) distanced himself from the unpopular Conservative leadership —and possibly from the equally-unpopular Conservative Party— is anti-EU, anti-migration invasion etc, and is now known nationwide. He must have at least a chance of retaining his seat. If he does, and if he also retains it as a “Conservative” MP, he might be one of 100 or even as few as 50 such MPs. Who knows what might then happen?

[from this blog on a previous day].

It may be that Anderson would be better off electorally standing either for Reform UK or as Independent than he would be as a Conservative Party candidate. Voters like “celebrity”; look at how Caroline Lucas has built up her constituency vote at Brighton Pavilion over the years, and that despite Green Party candidates elsewhere generally losing their deposits with votes under 5%.

When you can hold your head up high and honestly say your intentions were good, and when you have the truth on your side, you can take whatever is thrown at you.

Sam has recorded a video that will be uploaded after Friday, sharing his thoughts and a message for you all. If he gets a custodial sentence, that will be how he speaks. If he walks away a free man, he will be able to post again.

Pictures are from last week when we went away for a few nights as a family and it was really lovely to spend that time together.

Diary Blog, 20 February 2024, including a few thoughts about prominent fakes in present-day UK society

The fakes that roar

I happened to watch an edition of Celebrity Chase quiz show (from about 6 years ago). As usual, I did not know even the names of a couple of the “celebrities”, but “Eddie the Eagle” was there and, also, Michelle Dewberry [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelle_Dewberry].

I believe that Ms. Dewberry is now employed by GB News TV as presenter of a current affairs show.

Sadly, Ms. Dewberry proved herself entirely ignorant about politics, and pretty much everything else. Even worse than I was expecting.

Full of unwarranted self-confidence, but empty of intellectual content. Totemic of the present-day (think “Boris” Johnson, for one…).

The presenter of The Chase, Bradley Walsh, introduced Ms. Dewberry as “businesswoman and TV presenter“, I think. True up to a point. She did have a business, though I think an unsuccessful one, about 15 years ago. She is best known for having won, in 2006, The Apprentice, the TV competition run by Jewish businessman Alan Sugar.

My problem with all that is that she is one of a number of people with considerable public profile, and who opines about politics, Britain’s future etc, and yet is entirely ignorant in almost (?) all areas.

I suppose that I have to be honest and admit that, in the commonly-heard (on TV at least) phrase, “she scrubs up well“, anyway.

I see now from Wikipedia that Ms. Dewberry is now in a personal relationship with a once-successful and still affluent businessman, who is also, inter alia, a TV/radio presenter: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_Jordan.

Ms. Dewberry seems to be an example of a widespread problem in the UK these days, namely people posing as business successes, political experts etc when they are nothing of the sort; but it suits the msm to present them as such.

Look at Michelle Mone: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelle_Mone,_Baroness_Mone.

Most such people are boosted by the msm and/or politicians because it suits an agenda, in Michelle Mone’s case as an example of a *woman from *a deprived or poor background, who *via her own efforts *became “successful” and *wealthy. The David Cameron-Levita, George Osborne, Iain Dunce Duncan Smith (etc) ideology personified— and as fake as those cheats.

In fact, Michelle Mone is a fake through and through, and always has been, as seen even in her Wikipedia entry. That, however, has not stopped her from having been —ludicrously, so be it— elevated to the House of Lords; nor has it stopped her from making hundreds of millions of pounds from useless hospital equipment, sold to the NHS via contacts in the Conservative Party, together with her present husband: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doug_Barrowman.

There is something wrong about a country that seems not to care whether someone prominent, and/or in public life proper, is a fake. Look at Iain Duncan Smith. That man has so many layers of fakery that to examine them all in detail would require a book by someone such as Tom Bower [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Bower].

We see now how history is not only misunderstood, but often faked in both its overall purport and in details. I am referring not only to the WW2 “holocaust” farrago, but to, for example, the attempts now made to present a one-sided view of European (including British) colonialism as something entirely bad, with no redeeming features.

When history is faked, how can present-day politics and intellectual life be unaffected?

As in the many previous cases involving corrupt and moneygrubbing MPs, what always amazes me is how easy they are to entrap. They must have very little caution (perhaps as a result of their feeling of “entitlement”).

As Hitler said of the Weimar Republic’s creatures, “dirty democratic politicians“…

Incredible, or perhaps not, that the only penalty the House of Commons itself has imposed on Benton is a 35-day suspension. Of course, the real penalty will be if there is a by-election and he loses his seat, though he would have lost it —or will lose it— at GE 2024 anyway.

Well said.

I agree with tweeter “Betty’s Hotpot”/”@BigThickSlices” too. Reform UK is not properly social-national. I do not value it highly, certainly not to the extent of Matt Goodwin. Britain needs a social-national party which, sadly, does not even exist, at least as yet.

“Our wonderful police”

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/police-tell-woman-nick-back-32171141

A woman was left in shock after police allegedly told her to retrieve her stolen £30,000 Lexus car herself.

Alexandra Vlad, 32, woke up on February 6 to find her Lexus UX missing from her driveway in Newham, East London. Using a tracking app on her phone, she found the last known location of her car in Hackney, about six miles away. She called the police and provided all the information but claims she was then instructed to go and get the car herself.

Alexandra, who works in corporate finance, said: “I was more shaken by the experience of dealing with the police than the car being stolen itself. I told them what happened, and that I could see the last location of the engine. They told me they wouldn’t be there for at least an hour. It was a dodgy part of Hackney. I felt unsafe.

[Daily Mirror]

The police are a prime example of how things generally do not work properly now in Britain, though there are many others— NHS, banks, insurance companies, the whole political and electoral system, repair of the roads, the non-existent border defences etc.

Oxfam are in a ‘hypocrisy’ row after the charity paid one worker at least £340,000 in a year.

The payout was made in the year that the anti-poverty charity’s staff have had to rely on food banks to survive, which prompted the organisation’s first-ever strike over poor pay.

Around eight per cent of staff have used foodbanks, 22 per cent could not pay their rent, and 34 per cent had to choose between heating and eating, according to a union survey.

But the organisation’s had an income of £373 million and reserves of £44.6 million in 2021/2022, according to accounts.

The charity coughed up £340,000 to £349,000 in the year to March, 31, 2022, to a single overseas worker.

[Daily Mail]

Anyone who gives money to Oxfam these days is a total mug.

I stopped donating spare change and old coats etc when Oxfam started its multi-million anti-apartheid campaign against South Africa in the 1980s. Well, apartheid has gone, but poverty in Africa, including South Africa, is still there, and in South Africa more severe than it was then.

The head of Oxfam is a Sri Lankan aged 47 who, having been a student until age 28-29, gets £150,000 a year from Oxfam alone: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dhananjayan_Sriskandarajah. He is part of the WEF “young global leaders” set-up (as were the sinister Jacinda Ardern and others).

In fact, the whole worldwide “aid” “industry” is rotten to the core in various ways.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12791297/Ministers-accused-cover-revealed-shadowy-army-unit-DID-spy-British-critics-Covid-lockdown-policies.html

Ministers were accused of a cover-up last night after it was revealed that soldiers did secretly spy on British critics of the Government’s response to Covid.

The release of new documents contradict official assertions that a shadowy Army unit had only been monitoring foreign powers.

The Mail on Sunday revealed earlier this year that military operatives in the UK’s ‘information warfare’ brigade were part of a sinister scheme to keep a close eye on politicians and high-profile journalists who raised doubts about the pandemic response.

Silkie Carlo, director of Big Brother Watch, last night said: ‘The MoD’s claims that the information warfare unit’s secretive work was focused solely on overseas threats are now, ironically, clearly disinformation acting as a cover-up for their political surveillance.

Free Press and free speech are the foundations of any democracy, yet journalists and politicians appear to be treated like the enemy within.”

[Mail on Sunday]

“Free speech” is pretty much dead in the UK now. As regular readers will know, I was recently convicted under a law (Communications Act 2003, s.127) which the Law Commission has recommended for repeal, and simply by reason of a few remarks and cartoons, some about Jewish behaviour, allegedly posted on this blog.

As recently as the 1990s, there was still at least some freedom of expression left. No more. “They” (mostly, but together with the whole “woke” movement, the “antifa” idiots etc) have killed it. The beneficiaries? Mostly “the usual suspects”, but also the transnational conspiracy often termed “NWO/ZOG”.

Britain has gone mad. Of course, when I say “Britain”, that refers mainly though not entirely to the Westminster monkeyhouse, the (((occupied))) msm, and the worlds of academia and publishing.

Britain needs a gigantic cultural purge.

As for Rosie Duffield, she has allowed herself, in past years, to be used as a puppet by the Jew-Zionist lobby, but that has not saved her from the mincing machine: see https://www.kentonline.co.uk/canterbury/news/kent-mp-investigated-for-liking-anti-semitic-tweet-297561/.

Were Rosie Duffield to leave Parliament, I suppose that she might find it hard to get a job, having worked (as a teaching assistant) for only a few years, despite now being 52 (she became an MP in 2017): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosie_Duffield.

CAA” is the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism”. They sent one of their goblins in June to attend a preliminary hearing of my recent free speech trial, and one of their chief goblins turned up at the trial itself (held on Friday, 17 November 2023).

Anyone who makes common cause with the “CAA” goblins must be considered a traitor.

Most of the idiots supporting further (or indeed the existing) migration invasion indulge in “magical thinking”; they have no idea where to house or how to feed (etc) more than half a million, i.e. about 700,000 (net) incomers per year. In 5 years, that would be and probably will be (?) 2.5M, 3.5M or more “new” UK inhabitants.

The figure for Labour of course includes a high proportion of non-European immigrants or descendants of recent (post-1945) immigrants.

Noticeable that even those whom Goodwin calls the “new elite“, half of them (49%) anyway, think that immigration is now too high. Even they are now starting to run scared of what they themselves have done, facilitated, or encouraged.

The “Ann Brough” tweeter [Update: that tweet was deleted by the tweeter] displays the usual “magical thinking” common to pro-immigration idiots. False cartoon-economics and, lack of thought generally. She describes herself as “optimist and dreamer“. Fine, so long as you do not throw away all thought and logic (as pro-immigration idiots always do).

Stray thoughts

You often hear or see the statement “The Third Reich was terrible because [whatever].” Often cited is euthanasia of the terribly mentally or even physically disabled etc. Few consider that that or similar happened also in the USA, UK etc in the 1930s, though not often admitted to.

When people today say that they are, say, Roman Catholic, do other people say “so you support the Inquisition?!” or “so you support the torture and genocide of the Cathars?!” No…yet the same or similar questioners might say to someone who is social-national politically, “so you support euthanasia of the badly-disabled?!” or “you support gassing Jews?!” (leaving aside the doubtful proposition about whether the fabled “gas chambers” even existed). They might as well demand an answer to the question “so you want to invade Poland?!“.

Point made, I think.

Is that true? I wonder. Example: one-trick-pony actress Maureen Lipman has “threatened” to leave the UK (for Israel or USA) several times over the years. Never happened. These days she “cosplays” being scared by having a “minder” sometimes trail her from time to time (photographed for Press use, of course).

I have not been sentenced yet (late January 2024 or February 2024). There will be argument over whether “culpability” was “high”, “medium” or “low” (I say low, of course, and think that the law and material facts are on my side); as to “harm” (harm done by the alleged actions), even the Prosecution, and indeed the Court itself, accepted at and before trial that no harm at all was done by the cartoons and remarks attributed to me.

Well, I await my fate…

After sentencing, I have 15 working days, i.e. three weeks, in which to decide whether to appeal either to Crown Court or, on point of law, to the Divisional Court (High Court).

If I do appeal, the whole matter may not come to a conclusion until sometime in 2025.

50,000 (if so) out of about 10M inhabitants of the London area (i.e. about 1 out of every 200 London inhabitants. In fact, Jews and supportive poor saps from —I have seen tweets— as far away as Cardiff and Manchester are there. On that basis, 50,000 out of about 70M people in the UK as a whole. About 1 protester out of every 1,400 inhabitants of the UK.

Not so impressive.

30% of births in the UK within only 20% of the population of the UK. The “indigenous” part of the population is only producing 70% of births. In fact, non-white mothers are counted by such studies as “indigenous”, so the true situation is far more stark. The white British 80% of the UK population is not producing 70% of births but a far smaller percentage, maybe well under 50%.

The human cost of war is terrible— on both sides.

Reminiscent of the exploits of Michael Wittman after the Normandy Landings in 1944:

Michael Wittmann (22 April 1914 – 8 August 1944) was a German Waffen-SS tank commander during the Second World War. He is known for his ambush of elements of the British 7th Armored Division during the Battle of Villers-Bocage on 13 June 1944. While in command of a Tiger I tank, Wittmann destroyed up to 14 tanks, 15 personnel carriers and two anti-tank guns within 15 minutes for the loss of his own tank…Wittmann became a cult figure after the war thanks to his accomplishments as a “panzer ace” (a highly decorated tank commander), part of the portrayal of the Waffen-SS in popular culture.”

The Train is Hitting the Buffers

The UK train is hitting the buffers. The train crash has been slow, long in coming, but it is now starting to happen.

Decades of decadence, mass immigration, political corruption, Zionist takeover of the legal system, cultural sickness in all mass media (fostered by Zionist infiltration at all levels) etc now result in manifestations that are becoming apparent even to the voting public.

The public has little idea, even now, of the causes, but it sees the effects: National Health Service creaking, beginning to fall to pieces; the housing market effectively closed to most of those who wish to buy a house or even an apartment; sky-high rents paid to speculative parasites by employees and others; congested roads and trains; cities full of those of alien race and culture; schools which brainwash children with “multiculti” propaganda and “holocaust” lies.

Those few (including me) who saw this coming as long ago as in the 1970s (in my case) or even 1960s, were and still are marginalized by a mass media system which is thoroughly corrupted. The same is true of the political system and, increasingly, of the professions, where to speak up at all invites expulsion: see

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/

The Zionists are behind much of this and are now trying to shut down free speech and comment across social media– as happened long ago in the mass media.

https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2017/07/13when-i-was-a-victim-of-a-malicious-zionist-complaint/

The question that now has to be asked is what, in the next 4-5 years, will be the political result of the slow but accelerating collapse of British society in all areas?

It is clear that specifically English (leaving aside Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) voters are now, in a semi-rigged “First Past The Post” electoral system, voting against parties rather than for them. There is little enthusiasm for any of the System parties, let alone the more or less washed-up UKIP, Liberal Democrats and Greens, but there is determination to block parties by voting tactically for the party most likely to achieve that in any given seat.

Beyond the wish to block unwanted parties and candidates, there is a general and growing dissatisfaction. Above all, the “Middle Classes” are joining the “workers” and the marginalized at the bottom.

That can only help Labour, despite the misgivings many feel about its MPs and leaders (the obvious example being Diane Abbott). The success of the Corbyn faction and its vanguard, Momentum, may unsettle some voters, but may give rise in others to the feeling that at least Labour is fairly solid ideologically, not a chaotic mess. That is bound to play to Labour’s advantage electorally. Contrast with the Conservatives. This cartoon portrayed the way in which Theresa May achieved office by default:

CnLGOc5XYAALLJdThe next general election will probably favour Labour, though probably not enough for it to win a majority in the House of Commons. After that, one can foresee continuing mass immigration, continuing slide in public services, continuing disparity in wealth. That will be the moment when a social-national party can strike. First of all, one must exist, however.
