Ketelbey [1875-1959] was Britain’s first millionaire composer; producing light music, he was enormously popular in his day (broadly, 1896-1945). His peak popularity was probably in the 1920s; by the time of his death in 1959, he was completely obscure, his demise scarcely noticed.
Incidentally, when competing for a scholarship to Trinity College of Music, London, in 1889, at the age of 13-14, he scored the highest marks of all applicants (second place went to Gustav Holst).

[“The rapid proliferation of Russian advanced, motorized drones poses an increasing challenge to Ukraine’s air defense system, forcing Kyiv to adapt to a faster and more demanding threat. – Reuters. According to Reuters, the number of launches of Russian motorized drones has increased from approximately 450 in June to 2,850 in August, while Ukrainian intelligence estimates production at around 3,000 per month. With speeds reaching 500 km/h, these drones are much more difficult to intercept with cheaper Ukrainian interceptor drones, compared to slower systems like the “Shahed.” This shift appears to give Russia an advantage in terms of cost and speed. Ukraine is under pressure to develop faster interceptors, guided missiles, electronic warfare systems, and AI-supported defense systems, while some Ukrainian pilots are increasingly relying on fighter jets and, in some cases, artillery fire, as missile supplies dwindle. From a Russian military perspective, the value of these drones lies not only in the damage they can inflict, but also in their ability to force Ukraine to expend more expensive and limited defensive resources, while continuously adapting its air defense network. Reuters reports suggest that Moscow is increasingly leveraging differences in speed, production volume, and cost to create sustained pressure on Ukrainian defenses.“]

[“This is the liberal worldview in one clip. Grooming gangs don’t matter. It was a distant scandal. It’s been blown out of proportion. I would rather talk about AI & economics.
Aside from conveniently ignoring the fact, as even Louise Casey reports, that grooming gangs are still rife TODAY, like most liberals Rory’s brain cannot compute what the scandal is really about.
As Jon Haidt showed in his work, unlike conservatives liberals literally cannot process in-group loyalty, belonging, tradition, or the sanctity of a community.
The grooming gang scandal matters and should be front and centre in our national debate because it ran roughshod over all of that.
It involved the violation of our people and children. It saw out-groups prey on the in-group. And it directly clashed with our values.
Most ordinary people can see that. They can sense that while this is about Pakistani gangs it’s also about a fundamental clash of values and an intense anger about how fellow members of the in-group were treated by outsiders.
But liberals like Rory cannot. They will only ever talk about harm when it is done to minorities or outsiders. And they will only ever talk about empathy when it involves migrants, outsiders, newcomers — they literally have no serious interest in white British working class kids, never-mind showing them more loyalty than migrant communities.
Liberals have an enormous blind spot which you see right here in this clip. They are just incapable of talking about group identity, loyalty, and culture which is also why they are losing politically. They do not even think it’s worth talking about. Unfortunately for them, millions of people think otherwise.“]
Just another opinions-approved monkey-on-a-stick.
I assessed Rory Stewart on the blog as long ago as 2019, in a blog post which —with a very large number of appended updates— has been one of the most popular over the years, read by thousands of people:
Incidentally, Stewart says that much of the Pakistani sex crime in the UK happened “long ago…10-12 years ago“. In fact, it continues, but apart from that, Stewart does not mention the tribal Jew-Zionist whining about “the holocaust” which, to the extent that it happened in the fashion often believed (and most of it did not), happened 82-87 years ago… soon it will be a century ago.
Needless to say, puppet of the Jewish-Israel lobby, Gove, that little drunk, and drug-abusing bastard (and, when MP, expenses fraud), did not raise the question.
Stewart mentions several —yes, important— other problems that face the UK, but nothing good can happen when this country is, as it soon may be, non-European and, moreover, when the majority of the population soon will have racial-cultural origins in the least developed, least cultured, indeed least-intelligent parts of the world.
By "many Swedes" you mean liberal white women who are fast becoming one of the most destructive groups this planet has ever seen.
Not just women, but probably more women than men. The kind of women that, in the UK in the 1980s, 1990s (and even a decade or so ago) used to worship that African dimwit Mandela and his ANC rabble. Brainwashed by multikulti msm propaganda that few had the knowledge or intellect to critique.
Yes, and mainly because of the System parties and politicians that msm scribblers and talking-heads such as Hodges support, or give credence to via their newspaper columns and social media output.

[cartoon from 2022, the time of the 2020-2022 “Covid” scamdemic/panicdemic]
It remains incredibly sinister to me how many of the British, as well as other, people were willing to be corralled and controlled by the System-broadcast fear of a virus that actually killed only a tiny fraction (a tiny fraction of 1%) of the population.
Officially, in 2022, only about 50 out of every 100,000 people died either “of” or “with” Covid (almost all “with”, not “of”, i.e. it was not Covid that killed them at all). The real figure for deaths actually from Covid itself was probably about 5 out of every 100,000 people in 2022, maybe even fewer, maybe none at all.
The British people were tested by that whole conspiratorial and giant mass-psychological experiment. The majority failed (from my point of view) and proved that they were willing to be compliant slaves, so long as they were a.bought off with some money and more leisure time; and b.brainwashed by “expert” (fake expert) advice and enough pseudo-communitarian propaganda.

My opinions can only mean those on one subject: Palestine. Why is Europe going down this road to such an extent? Perhaps the caller from the bank was acting individually and read a text of mine he/she hated. In that case why make the phone call? Another friend , but in London, hearing the story remarked: ‘Lloyd Bank denied the mother of a Palestine Action prisoner a mortgage on account of her daughter’s arrest’ Is every bank behaving like this? Why no boycott of Lloyds. Bigotry before profits? Amazing.”]
“De-banking” has become a System weapon of choice. George Galloway suffered similarly, as have, in recent years, Nigel Farage, and Sam Melia, Laura Towler-Melia, and Mark Collett (all of Patriotic Alternative). I think that Nick Griffin of the BNP also had problems at one time. The individuals in banks that make such (often arbitrary and, of course, “woke”) decisions should be both identified and punished.

The Jewish lobby/Israel lobby is livid that the quasi-genocide the Jews of Israel have been carrying out in Gaza (etc) for 3 years has alienated even their former strong supporters.
Of course, the terrible conditions at Belsen camp in 1945 were mainly by reason of weeks and months of bombing by British and American air forces, affecting food supplies, water supply etc:
“When the British and Canadians advanced on Bergen-Belsen in 1945, the German army negotiated a truce and exclusion zone around the camp to prevent the spread of typhus.[19] On April 11, 1945 Heinrich Himmler (the Reichsführer SS) agreed to have the camp handed over without a fight. SS guards ordered prisoners to bury some of the dead. The next day, Wehrmacht representatives approached the British, D Squadron of the Inns of Court Regiment, at the bridge at Winsen and were brought to VIII Corps. At around 1 a.m. on April 13, an agreement was signed, designating an area of 48 square kilometers (19 square miles) around the camp as a neutral zone.[20]
Most of the SS were allowed to leave. Only a small number of SS men and women, including the camp commandant Kramer, remained to “uphold order inside the camp”. The outside was guarded by Hungarian and regular German troops who were returned to the German front lines by the British shortly afterwards. Due to heavy fighting near Winsen and Walle, the British were unable to reach Bergen-Belsen on April 14, as originally planned. The camp was liberated on the afternoon of April 15, 1945.[10]: 253 The first two to reach the camp were a British Special Air Service officer, Lieutenant John Randall, and his jeep driver, who were on a reconnaissance mission and discovered the camp by chance.[21] American soldiers attached to the British forces also helped liberate the camp.[22]
When British and Canadian troops finally entered they found over 13,000 unburied bodies and (including the satellite camps) around 60,000 inmates, most acutely sick and starving. The prisoners had been without food or water for days before the Allied arrival, partially due to Allied bombing. Immediately before and after liberation, prisoners were dying at around 500 per day, mostly from typhus.”
[Wikipedia]
Incidentally, in that Wikipedia entry, and in the Wikipedia entry of one Shaul Ladany, a Jew who was at Belsen as a boy of 8, and who later won a gold medal at the 1972 Munich Olympics, there is his statement that he was put “…into the gas chamber, but reprieved“; as in “I actually went into the gas chamber, but was reprieved, God knows why” [Wikipedia].
In fact, even Zionist sources admit that there was no “gas chamber” at Belsen, so that Jew either found it expedient later to lie, or perhaps simply deluded himself. A kind of quasi-historical Munchausen’s Syndrome.
There is a huge amount of fakery and a huge amount of untruth around the whole so-called “holocaust” farrago.
That Ladany character also claims that his grandparents had earlier been taken to Auschwitz, where “they were made into soap“, a process that even the Zionists now admit never happened; complete fiction.

[“Russia is inflicting hundreds of millions of dollars in damage on Ukraine through strikes targeting logistics and businesses, according to The Economist.
For example, according to Dmitry Krymsky, co-owner of the Goodwine chain, Russian strikes have caused approximately $500 million in damage to Ukrainian businesses in just three weeks.
Warehouses, logistics hubs, “Nova Poshta” (a Ukrainian postal service), and now cargo ships in the Black Sea have been targeted.
The ports of Odesa have been particularly affected: after Russia intensified its attacks on shipping, the ports have become “commercially dead,” as The Economist reports.
Another problem is the export of crops. This year, Ukraine needs to sell approximately 50 million tons of grain. If this is not possible, farmers may refuse to plant in the fall, and the potential losses for the industry are estimated at $10-12 billion – about 5% of the country’s GDP.
At the same time, the attacks on logistics are only a prelude to more significant problems: Russia is increasing the production of ballistic missiles, while Ukraine’s air defense capabilities are dwindling.”]
Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose this war.
RUSSIA: LEADING WHEAT EXPORTER!
🇷🇺 During the past agricultural season, which ran from July 1, 2025, to July 1, 2026, Russia exported approximately 46.5 million tons of wheat, maintaining its leading position among global exporters of this grain.

Ha ha. That’s that Jolyon Maugham character, a half-Jew barrister who once practised in revenue law, though he now seems to focus entirely on “woke” political and social causes. His track record with his Good Law Project is, however, poor, to put it at most diplomatic.

[“In a few weeks, the national populist Alternative for Germany will send shockwaves through Europe by taking power at state elections
It will be a seismic, historic moment for Europe. The ‘firewall’ blocking the AfD will collapse. Europe’s populist wave will reach entirely new heights. EU bureaucrats will likely have a meltdown. There will probably be a renewed push to try and ban the AfD. Why is it happening? The legacy media will once again tell you the AfD are Nazis & extremists. But this is nonsense.
What they won’t tell you is what the political, media, and cultural class has done to Germany. -> Nearly 16 million foreign nationals arrived in the last 10 years alone. -> Some 6.5 million migrants were added to Germany’s population, net, in just a decade. -> The number of people with a migrant background soared from 13 million in 2005 to 21 million today. -> More than one in three 35-year-olds in Germany, 36%, now have a migrant background.
Islamism has also gone mainstream. There were nearly 20 terror attacks over the last decade and at least 10 major attacks thwarted since 2023 alone. ->The total number of Islamist crimes has surged from 134 in 2022 to nearly 1,000 last year -> There are now 28,000 Islamists living in Germany, according to official data/The Times.
Ordinary Germans do not have to live like this. They never asked for demographic change on this scale. And if you ask AfD voters what they think is the top issue facing their country, 82% say immigration.
If you don’t want the AfD winning state elections and leading the NATIONAL polls then end the policy of mass immigration, control the borders, and root out Islamism.”]
I agree in part, but naturally Goodwin does not mention that the migration invasion of Germany (and the rest of Europe, including the UK) has been mainly facilitated by Jewish and Israeli interests and individuals. The Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.
Goodwin says that the AfD are not “Nazis or extremists“. True, but if they were, so much the better!
Deutschland erwache!
Anyway, the problem is not so much “Islamism”, but the typical social and sexual behaviour of so many of the migrant invaders.
Yet the lady tweeter fully “supports” (though born only in 1967) the disastrous Churchill-led war against the German Reich 1939-1945, and she is now pushing, like so many others in and around the polluted UK political swamp, for war with Russia. I wonder how many “boys” and indeed citizens generally, here in the UK will die if that happens? Millions, probably; tens of millions, quite possibly.
I agree with that lady on Tim Montgomerie. The ridiculous fuck-up has been a negative influence on British politics for years, about 20+ years, yet has never been elected to anything, but has just set up fake think tanks (who, or what cabal, put up the money?) and websites (Conservative Home; again, from where came the money?).
He seems to be well-connected, and is always on TV despite having nothing to offer beyond his personal whining and a little party-political gossip.
Montgomerie is somewhere between pathetic and sinister.
Another lying, cheating, freeloading and moneygrubbing MP hypocrite, as well as being a vaping, tattooed, “club”-going chavscum woman. The Westminster monkeyhouse just gets worse.
In Rayner’s case, she has been caught out several times now.
Angela Rayner is now, once again, in the Cabinet, despite her moneygrubbing and freeloading, and despite her complete ignorance.
Again, though, the wider picture is that idiots like Angela Rayner are far more likely to be selected (by the System parties) as candidates for elected office than people such as me. That is just ludicrously wrong. In fact, senseless.
The whole political system in this country is rotten to the core. Cases such as that of Angela Rayner are merely symptoms of a terminal disease.

Oh, and “toddy” is also wrong in thinking that only the wealthy had education in 1884. In the early Victorian period (1840s), formal education for the poor was only found in isolated places, but from the 1840s poor schools were founded. The Education Act 1870 brought in radical change. By 1891, education for poor children was both available and mandatory, and was free of charge. The Fabian Society, founded in 1884, had little or nothing to do with that.

They just do not want to see the elephant in the room— the continuing migration invasion. I have the memoirs of the Labour MP and junior minister, Chris Mullin, A View from the Foothills. In an entry from 2000, he was told by the civil service, upon enquiring as to the availability of council housing, that as much as 75% of the social housing (perhaps in one area) was being occupied by asylum-seekers. That was 26 years ago!
In a sense, simple arithmetic does the job. Between one million and one and a half million immigrants each year (minus a couple of hundred thousand Brits emigrating to what they hope are still white/European places overseas), minus another modest number of non-Brits leaving, so somewhere between 600,000 and 1,000,000 extra persons in the country, but only 150,000-200,000 dwelling units built (in the past year). Result— a shortfall of at least 400,000 houses and flats each year, and maybe as many as 800,000.
In late 1971, I was just 15, and had returned from a 3-week stay with a French couple who lived in the Rue de l’Arbalete in the 5th arrondisement of Paris, a Paris which, I think, does not exist any more.
I loved Crime of Passion, which I thought at the time might be an Anglo-French production. In fact, not. It was the kind of literate, not-boring, well-made drama never seen today, and of course had no performative blacks/gays/lesbians (etc), nor any virtue-signalling nonsense in the script.
Crime of Passion was an ATV production, and was based on actual cases in the French courts, in which, until 1976, a plea of crime passionel was an excuse legale in relation to a prosecution for homicide in circumstances where a husband had caught his wife in flagrante with a lover. A successful plea of crime passionel reduced the sentence very considerably (from death or life imprisonment in most cases, to a couple of years in prison or even complete acquittal, though the latter was rare.
The change of law in 1976 was part of a general updating of laws previously based on the Code Napoleon.
Hard to believe that the surviving 29 episodes (3 others having been wiped) of that series have never been put on VHS or DVD, or revived on one of the “nostalgia” TV channels.
I found this episode on YouTube:
Who knows? Maybe Crime of Passion, along with another TV series of those times, Crown Court, subliminally led me, if only by a meandering or crooked path, to the Bar.

Exactly what happened in the early 1920s in Germany. The Weimar Republic regime stood by as hyperinflation destroyed the integrity of the German currency. Jews from outside Germany then conspired with Jews inside Germany to exploit the terrible situation by buying assets for a fraction of the true value (the international, historic value). Industrial assets, great works of art, jewels, gold etc.
In fact, though the hyperinflation was over by 1924-1925, the events destroyed also the trust of German people in System government, and partly laid the ground for the 1933 triumph of National Socialism.
Milei has to be removed. All assets bought by Jews and Israeli organizations in Argentina should be confiscated as, in effect, the proceeds of crime.

[“You are 59% Fascist, which makes you a Crypto-Fascist.
It would appear that there is a significant degree of agreement between your preferred political doctrines and those of fascism. Since fascism is really a mix of communism, socialism, conservatism, and liberalism, with a few innovations of its own thrown in, it is scarcely surprising that most people’s political outlook will have quite a few similarities with the doctrines of fascism. However, even after taking these thresholds into account, the most likely interpretation of your answers on the test is that you are someone who is right on the verge of being a fascist proper. Now, maybe you don’t think of yourself in that way, but nevertheless research in the social sciences has repeatedly shown that a significant percentage of the population is naturally attracted to authoritarian political doctrines (of which fascism is but one example). In fact, one study even found that in the case of people who are drawn to order and control, these values are more important to them than more mainstream political parameters, such as the traditional left and right. In all likelihood, those values are among the most important ones to you as well.
For another approach to testing for fascist beliefs, see the classical F Scale Test.“]
Ha. Amusing. 59%.
I wonder how many of both my supporters and enemies would think of me as “crypto”? I should have thought, not many. I suppose I am basically a person of reason, though.
She is right, but the point is that Labour is as good as finished either way. Even in 2024, Starmer-stein’s Labour only managed to get 4 votes out of every 20 eligible voters; 4 votes out of every 12 votes actually cast.
Out of every 20 eligible voters, 8 did not vote, 4 voted Lab, 3 voted Con, 2 voted Reform, 2 voted LibDem (though in fact the LibDems were far below Reform in numbers), and 1 (just about) voted Green.
Well, since then, Labour has slid in the opinion polls, and the Con Party under its Nigerian woman leader has also slid. The latest poll has Labour on only 25%, Reform on 24%, and the Cons below 20%, compared to 34% (Lab), 24% (Con), and 14% (Reform) in 2024.
Andy Burnham may have paper constitutional legitimacy, but will not have even notional real legitimacy until he holds and wins a general election. Of course, as the lady tweeter says, to hold one now would be almost suicidal. At least 100, maybe 200, Labour MPs would be culled.
That tweeter, Fiona-Natasha Syms, is an odd woman. Ex-wife of an ex-MP (Conservative).
I sometimes enjoy her tweets, but she is utterly loonie. Says she is a former “liberal Conservative”, that that she has her own (fantasy) party, “the Moderates”, which seems not very moderate to me.
Wants to take off the State Pension “Triple Lock” (thus making pensioners poorer), be more generous to young and (supposedly) mentally-impaired benefits claimants. Strange in a woman who supported and still praises the part-Jews David Cameron-Levita and “George” (Gideon) Osborne, who intensified Gordon Brown-Labour’s attack on the disabled and/or unemployed to an unprecedented extent, allowing the dishonest, dim and nasty part-Jap expenses fraudster, Dunce Duncan Smith, free rein.
Oh, and she does not want to stop the migration invasion, yet thinks that the UK needs more “defence” against the non-existent “Russian threat”.
She seems to think that a black/brown Britain would be fine, and calls anyone against that future “fash” (“fascist”), a term I only ever see, otherwise, from “antifa” and/or Jew “antifascist” tweeters.
Even today, she was tweeting in defence of that black “academic” con-man, Jason Arday, who killed himself the other day when his fakery was publicized.
Well, there it is. One cannot expect rationality from the irrational, and I suspect and have suspected that the members of her “Moderates” fantasy party are about as numerous as the empty bottles in her kitchen. If that.
I doubt that the lady’s “Moderates”, even if they existed in the real world, would do better than the smallest fringe parties. Pensioners would not vote for her, anyone sceptical of the “need” for money to be wasted on defence against fantasy “threats” would not vote for her, and neither would anyone wanting to stop the migration invasion.
Incidentally, that black “academic” faker’s contrived and proven-to-be untrue memoirs are now selling well on a wave of buying by virtue-signalling idiots. At £20+ a copy, apparently.
That Arday con-man was nearly as inventive and dishonest as the fraudulent one-time/supposed “activist” and dog’s dinner cook, “Jack Monroe”.
“Jack Monroe”— now there’s a blast from the past. I wonder whether any of the (at one time) 400+ utter mugs who were, years ago, sending her money every month (from £3 to £44) are still sending her any? Some people are such total imbeciles that it might well be so…
Looking at the mugs buying that Arday faked “memoir” book, it does tend to show that the pro-multikulti and “antifascist” types are so mired in delusion that they will do almost anything to shore up their delusionary worldview.

How time flies— there is my blog post from 3 years ago today, and that dates from three months before my free speech trial of November 2023. Nearly three years ago. Hard to believe.

It has been published almost daily since the trial and sentencing (of March 2024), and is still being published at least 25 days per month.

True, but —as with the Ukraine situation— this is also partly an excuse to make people forget that the disastrous and utterly stupid (but on one level, planned) “Covid” “lockdown” immediately placed the UK economy on a permanently lower level, and quite deliberately.
The sheep (you know, the voters…) almost all complied with the ludicrous farrago of fake laws, “rules” etc put out by “Boris”-idiot, little Matt Hancock, and others.
Now those sheep are suffering, or starting to suffer, and the villain is supposed to be Russia, or Iran, or anything but the Western cabals who imposed those fake laws and closed down the UK and other economies for months and years.
I was shocked to see how easily the sheep were led by those with control of the levers of mass propaganda.
“Lockdown”, “social distancing”, “the Rule of Six”, the facemask nonsense etc. All entirely unnecessary (in reality, only a handful of people in the UK actually died of Covid).
As I blogged at the time, on one level the whole “Covid” thing was a massive psychological experiment; sadly, millions of people went along with it and probably even today believe it. Even years later, I occasionally see poor loonies wearing a facemask. Probably the same contaminated piece of cloth they have been breathing through for 6 years. Complete idiots, and victims of a “psy-op” which actually was not hugely sophisticated, though plainly co-ordinated at the start.

Burnham continues to underwhelm. The weather this year is fairly brutal, but political leadership cannot change it one little bit.
As for “climate change”, the evidence for its existence is patchy, and its causation via “emissions” not proven, as far as I am concerned.
Further, even if there is climate change and even if it is caused by the said emissions, only what is done by the largest industrial powers, notably China, India, and the USA, would make a real difference. Britain is only sending out 1% of the said emissions, if that. In other words, even if Britain disappeared completely, or achieved “Net Zero”, the difference in emission-output would be somewhere between 1% and zero.
What political leadership in the UK can do is to plan ahead and to take strategic decisions that have practical outcomes.
The most important action that should be taken is to stop mass immigration. All the millions of migrant invaders (“small boat” invaders, “legal immigrants”, and those born to immigrant mothers or to stupid British women impregnated by non-Europeans) use water, for one thing. 55 million people lived in the UK when I was born (1956); now, 65-70 million.
The next thing that government can do is to ameliorate the effects of continued hot weather. Build more reservoirs. Not one public reservoir has been constructed in 34 years in the UK. I now read that some are being planned and that a few have even been started. However, it takes years to construct a large reservoir, and months or —more usually— years for such reservoirs to fill, especially in periods of low rainfall.
A further action that would help is to give some financial help to planters and growers who want private reservoirs (which can cost up to £2M). That helps because the water for irrigation would then come from the private reservoir, not from public reservoirs, rivers, and aquifers.
Of course, none of the above can change the weather, but those and other measures might help to mitigate the effects.
I once lived for a while on a Caribbean island without reservoirs or (when I was there) any desalination plant (one was being built while I was there). In fact, there was no mains water on the island at that time. However, all large or medium-size houses were built around a large tank, so that when it did rain (torrentially, in hurricane season), water was retained. Certainly, the villa in which I lived never ran out of water for showers etc (you had to buy drinking water, imported from the USA, mostly).
UK governments should make new buildings include such tanks, and also potential air-conditioning. Yes, there is a cost penalty; well, boo-hoo. It is necessary.
Reverting to Burnham, my initial view of him as someone who just wants to do what appears popular (except for stopping the migration invasion, of course) is daily reinforced.
Look at the “P.C. Harper” case, re. the tinker/”traveller” criminals who killed a policeman a few years ago. The big picture strategy would be to remove or eliminate such “traveller” criminals, if necessary as a whole “community”, rather than horse around, as Burnham is, trying to prevent a few individual ones from getting early release from prison. In fact, he is only doing that because he does not want the mass media to report that he is doing nothing.

A German news agency reported that due to the increased risks of transiting the Strait of Hormuz, many shipping companies are refusing to pass through the strait. This has led to a reduction in the number of available oil tankers and a sharp increase in prices.
The largest oil tanker carries 2 million barrels of oil, worth $200 million. A 30-day voyage from the Persian Gulf to China costs an amount equal to 7.5% of the cargo’s value. That is, one barrel out of every 13 goes towards the cost of transportation.“]

I was just thinking about the Henry Nowak matter. I myself live only about 20 miles from that part of Southampton, though in a very different semi-rural area.
I was also thinking about the Belfast protests or small riots.
The Southampton protests seen on TV and online seem to have involved 50-100 people, I doubt many more. I suspect that either a high minority, or a majority, of people generally are angry or at least concerned by wider aspects of the Henry Nowak case, also the wider aspects of the appalling savagery of the Belfast incident, as well as the incidents themselves, yet all we can see, on the surface, talking about Southampton, is 50 or 100 people (did the crowd ever amount to as many as 150?) confronting and —pointlessly— taunting a police contingent which also seems to have been in the dozens or maybe 100-150 in number.
Southampton itself has a population of about a quarter of a million people. You cannot judge the public mood by the few willing to get involved in street stand-offs (I do not think we can call them “battles”), whether in Southampton, Belfast, or anywhere else. You cannot say that, just because only a couple of hundred people turn out for a street protest in a city with 250,000 inhabitants, that that represents an otherwise-quiescent public. Not at all.
People are getting very apprehensive/concerned/angry about the present migration invasion and its consequences.

Thus making Labour strong favourite to win the by-election. On the surface, bad news, in that it strengthens Labour, whose national vote (however stupidly) may rise if Burnham takes over from Starmer-stein.
On the other hand, looking at the bigger picture, it means that well over a third of the people —37%— of that Makerfield area (a traditional Labour area) are now thinking in terms of nationalist politics, though not so many thinking yet in terms of social nationalism; more than are thinking of voting Labour, anyway —only 35%.
The direction of travel is toward national and even social-national politics, and away from the traditional System parties.
In any case, voting “democracy” is only part of the story. All roads lead to Rome, and only white Europeans should be allowed to vote in this country.

Look at the Russian Empire, the Soviet Union and, indeed, post-Soviet Russia. Dozens if not hundreds of ethnic groups and languages. Kept together by the knut, one way or another. To the extent that Russia has “democracy”, it is because the Russians constitute the large majority.
USA? Well, until the Second World War, the USA was large-majority white European, indeed —at one time just after the First World War— about 90% white European, albeit with a number of minority European cultures (and also a strong Jewish element in a few cities, but mainly in New York). Now, whites are just about the minority, maybe 48%, and look at how dictatorial the USA has already become.
UK? You decide…

Seems that the police in the county have appealed for information as to the identity of the nasty person who killed a seagull in St. Ives today. It may or may not be the person identified in the above tweet. The sweatshirt certainly looks very distinctive.
If they try to kill free speech on x, we march on Westminster.
A silly little man, a Labourite political careerist, who had no background at all in defence until appointed by Starmer-stein. Ludicrously pro-“Ukraine” (Kiev regime), too. Incidentally, Healey has always been a member of Labour Friends of Israel. What a surprise…
Very true, though a few of the examples cited are ill-judged. For example, that Linehan slug joined in several times with the Jewish-lobby attacks on me after I was both wrongfully and unlawfully disbarred in 2016. Linehan is a complete tool of the Israel/Jew lobby, a nasty person through and through.
Like others (e.g. Allison Pearson, Toby Young etc), Linehan pretends to be for “free speech”, but in reality favours the “cancellation” and censorship of whomsoever is hated by the Jewish lobby.
Of course, both Linehan and Allison Pearson are within the msm milieu, so their incomes (I presume that Linehan still has an income of some sort) are dependent on not being targeted by the Jewish lobby; dimwitted Allison Pearson has even made common cause with the malicious liars and perjurers of the so-called Campaign Against Antisemitism”, the main activity of which is to whine and demand for less “free speech”.

Saw that the following blog post from over 9 years ago, so one of the first, has had hits. I can still stand by it:

Children aren’t mentioned once. NOT ONCE.
The problem isn’t removing genuine incitement to violence. The real problem is that unelected regulators will pressure platforms to decide what millions of ADULTS can and cannot see whenever a “crisis” is declared.
many platforms will remove perfectly lawful content rather than risk the punishment of Ofcom.

[“Bloody hell, I’ve been digging more into the government definition of ‘Crisis’ a bit more So… an unelected regulator is now operating within government where the meaning of “crisis” has become very stretched.
The Cabinet Office Amber Book says an emergency under the Civil Contingencies Act covers serious damage to human welfare, the environment or UK security. (fair enough) But then it has added … “For the purposes of this guidance, the terms emergency and crisis are used interchangeably.”… INTERCHANGEABLY?
It also says an emergency/crisis can include situations that have not yet been harmful but have the potential to be (they do not define ‘harmful’ This guidance has not been voted for or debated So let me explain why thats so important. it means that almost any situation the government believes could become a problem can now be treated as a ‘crisis’.
And under that broad language, Ofcom has been able to write to platforms about civil unrest, crisis situations and how they will need to beef up moderation, it isnt just about removing illegal content.
Anything could become a “crisis”, no one voted for the widening of the definition and no one had the opportunity to, because thats how government by guidance works…. hoping you won’t even notice.“]

The BBC has led the way, with a “BBC Verification” department which is itself actually just a System disinformation-broadcasting department.
Translates to a Commons with about 311 Reform UK MPs (about 15 short of an overall majority), 85 Cons (very weak official Opposition), 83 Greens, 67 LibDems, 45 SNP, 32 Labour [etc].
Those figures would mean that about 370 current Labour MPs would lose their seats, including Starmer and, notionally, any Labour MP at Makerfield.
31 current Conservative Party MPs would also lose their seats.
I think that the polling organizations are going to have to place Restore on the board, because the absence of Restore obviously skews the suggested results in terms of seats notionally won at the next GE.
If only we hadn't spent 100 billion on HS2 or spent 6 billion on an armoured vehicle that doesn't work. If they got more money they would only waste it. Someone needs to get a grip of the defence industry
To my mind, with the present System people in place, almost any money spent on defence is wasted, much of the background policy being predicated on the nation that Russia wants to or even intends to invade Eastern or Central Europe, or even Western Europe, and maybe even the UK. It’s all nonsense.
This country should not be wasting money on supporting “Ukraine” (the corrupt, brutal, and shambolic Jew-Zionist/Ukrainian thug regime in Kiev); neither should any money at all be spent on assisting the vicious Israeli regime.
As for those political parasites and chancers such as Daniel Hannan, suggesting that both State pension benefits such as the Triple Lock, and disability benefits for British people, should be slashed and the monies diverted to “defence”, forget it! Crazy, as well as being political suicide for any party entertaining it.
A million migrant-invaders are coming into the UK every year; others are being born here… Our country is quite rapidly now falling to pieces by reason, mainly, of migration invasion. Stop that, rather than building fantasy armies and navies to be deployed in fantasy scenarios about fighting Russia (and its 7,000 nuclear weapons).
On the contrary, Britain should leave NATO and cultivate good relations with Russia, thus ensuring cheap energy for our industries and domestic consumers, and also giving the UK a huge and valuable market in Russia, a market currently closed to the EU states by reason of their mad anti-Russia sanctions regime. It could all be ours.

'That tells you he's in dead trouble.' @AndrewMarr9 reacts as Keir Starmer brings Gordon Brown and Harriet Harman into government after Labour's local election rout. pic.twitter.com/GHPPHKnDmB
Ha ha. System mouthpiece Andrew Marr once again comes out to bat for Blair-Brown Labour.
Apart from puffing Gordon Brown’s premiership, 16+ years on, Marr says as little as possible about “Harriet Harperson” and nothing at all about the real concerns of millions of British people. His list of issues mentioned did not even include mass immigration, which is tearing this country apart.
Actually, if you want to use the hackneyed “traitor” gibe, there are few better candidates:
An enemy of the British people.
Incidentally:
“Regarding his political affiliations, he was formerly a Maoist and a member of the Socialist Campaign for a Labour Victory, a left-wing pressure group founded by Labour Party members, now known as the Alliance for Workers’ Liberty. His interest in Mao Zedong began as early as age eleven, when he gave fellow Craigflower School students copies of the Little Red Book that he had requested and received from the Chinese embassy.[12][13] His affinity for Maoism continued into his time at Cambridge, where Marr says he was a “raving leftie” who acquired the nickname “Red Andy“.
A Maoist as a university student, so as late as 1978 (Mao died in 1976).
Does not say much for Marr’s political judgment.
It is one thing to be a “Maoist” aged 11, as Marr was, or thought he was —I too had two “little red books” (Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-Tung, and On People’s War by Lin Piao) given to me when I was a similar age, in my case in 1967 in Australia— but it is surely different when the person is a hopefully more mature 18-21, and in 1977 or even 1979. Incredible…
In normal circumstances, Keir Starmer’s appointment of Gordon Brown as his special envoy on global finance and Harriet Harman as his adviser on women and girls would be seen by Labour MPs as sensible. Tapping the wisdom of the party’s elders to solve important problems would be…
[“In normal circumstances, Keir Starmer’s appointment of Gordon Brown as his special envoy on global finance and Harriet Harman as his adviser on women and girls would be seen by Labour MPs as sensible. Tapping the wisdom of the party’s elders to solve important problems would be viewed as competent if dull technocratic government.
However these are not normal circumstances for the Prime Minister. His MPs see him as responsible for yesterday’s electoral catastrophe. He indeed has insisted he does take full responsibility.
And that is why the appointments are in fact incendiary. Because they are seen as – at best – irrelevant to the crisis faced by the government, and for many MPs and ministers they are provocative, an insult, a manifestation – in the words of one minister – “that he simply doesn’t get it.”
This is what one senior and influential member of the government told me:
“The Harriet and Gordon thing and his Guardian article [in which he said the government should neither move left or right] has annoyed Labour MPs even more. It’s tone deaf. I think people give him until Monday to actually show he gets it or he’s done.”
To be clear, this minister would often try and defend the PM. Not any more. And that’s not altogether surprising, given that few Reform voters are likely to say “I was thinking of voting for Nigel Farage but I’ve changed my mind now that Keir has tapped Gordon to create an international off-balance-sheet finance facility for defence spending.”
Another minister told me that the preference of MPs and Labour’s members would be for Starmer to stay and turn around the performance of the government, but they were increasingly doubtful he was capable of doing this.
This minister’s mood, and that of his colleagues, he said, “was increasingly of despair”.
Perhaps the biggest problem was that Starmer “is seemingly unable to give a clear coherent sense of direction for the country.”
“Voters will forgive you many of your mistakes if you can tell them where you want to take them. But he has been incapable of doing that, and none of us know whether he ever can.”
Even those members of the Cabinet who are genuine loyalists talk about him on the basis of hypothesis and guesswork. None of them seem to actually know what makes him tick or what he wants (one told me he was planning to set out his own policies more publicly in the hope that perhaps the PM would adopt them).
In that sense Starmer seems more isolated than any prime minister I’ve ever known.
A very big test for him comes on Monday, when he is expected to give a speech that will be billed as his agenda for the rest of the parliament but is in practice a plea to his MPs to give him a last chance.
I asked a minister what MPs would need to hear to be clear that he does understand their concerns, that he “gets it”.
This was the reply. “I mean god knows because I dont think he does. It’s not anything anyone else can tell him it has to come from him.”
And that, in a nutshell, is why Starmer is in so much trouble.“]
I sense, though, that the mainstream political scribblers and talking-heads still have not quite got their heads around what is happening. It is not all about Starmer-stein. Public dislike of the bastard is certainly more focussed than is dislike of the old Lab and Con parties, but what we are seeing now is rejection of the whole LibLabCon rigged political system that has been a fixed state in the UK going back certainly to 1945 and arguably to around 1900.
If you listen to the tramline minds of Andrew Marr and his type, you may think that all that Labour has to do to recover its prestige and vote is to swap one sinister clown for another, whether it be Andy Burnham, Yvette Cooper, or even Angela Rayner. No. Just no.

Let's check in on Beatrice.

Beatrice is a four-year-old Light Sussex hen in the back garden of a retired widower in a Yorkshire village. She arrived three years ago with three other hens, brought by his daughter to “give him something to look after.” It worked. He talks to them. He pretends, to himself, that he doesn’t.
Beatrice has been busy this morning.
5.42am. Beatrice exits the coop first. She is always first. The other three hens, by long arrangement, wait. The arrangement was not agreed in writing. The arrangement is, by every working measure, in force.
5.51am. Beatrice locates a slug on the lower lavender. She eats the slug. The label on a supermarket egg box would describe Beatrice as “vegetarian-fed.” Beatrice has not read the label. The slug, by 5.52am, is no longer the slug.
6.18am. Beatrice eats a worm turned up by the man’s spade in the vegetable bed. The man is digging the bed because Beatrice has, by long observation, taught him that digging the bed at 6.15am produces worms, which produces hens nearby, which produces a small social arrangement that the man has come to look forward to.
7.04am. Beatrice eats a beetle. She eats it with the considered focus of a hen who knows that beetle protein is, by every measure, the highest-quality protein available to her, and that the beetles do not, on the whole, last long once identified.
8.30am. Beatrice lays an egg. The egg weighs 64 grams. It contains, by every available analysis: a complete amino acid profile, choline, lutein, zeaxanthin, B12, vitamin D, vitamin A, selenium, iodine, and cholesterol of the kind that the human body, contrary to forty years of dietary advice, regulates by itself. The egg is, by every honest nutritional measure, one of the most complete single foods on earth. The man eats it for breakfast at 8.45am.
10.00am. Beatrice eats the man’s vegetable peelings. Carrot tops. Cabbage stalk. The end of a leek. A small piece of stale bread. This is, in industrial poultry terms, an unauthorised diet. In actual hen terms, it is the diet hens evolved on for several thousand years before anyone thought to feed them only one thing.
11.30am. Beatrice kills a rat. It is the second rat she has killed this year. She does not eat the rat (rats are too large) but she does, with great commitment, prevent it from getting near the feed. Beatrice is, by quiet local agreement, the most effective pest-control system in the village.
1.15pm. Beatrice naps in a dust bath of her own construction. The dust bath has been positioned, by Beatrice, in the precise spot in the garden that gets afternoon sun for the longest. She did not ask the man’s permission. She did not need to.
3.40pm. The man, in the kitchen, calls her name.
Beatrice comes.
She does not come for the daughter. She does not come for the postman. She comes for the man.
Things Beatrice has, in one ordinary day, debunked:
That hens are vegetarian. They are not. They are obligate omnivores, and the supermarket “vegetarian-fed” label is, by every honest reading, a deficiency diet sold at premium prices.
That eggs are bad for you. Forty years of dietary advice, substantially walked back since 2015. Eggs are now, in most modern guidelines, considered one of the most nutrient-dense foods available.
That chicken farming is, by definition, cruel. Industrial poultry, in many cases, is. Beatrice’s life is not. The honest argument targets the system, not the species.
That backyard hens spread disease. The disease vector data points overwhelmingly at intensive operations. Beatrice’s three companions and the half a million UK households who keep small flocks are not the problem.
That eggs are a luxury. The man pays approximately £15 a year per hen in feed. He gets, in return, around 280 eggs, two dead rats, a worked vegetable bed, a dust bath in the right spot, and a small quiet relationship with a creature who comes when he calls.
Beatrice is, by every honest measure, the smallest unit of working agriculture in Britain.
She is also, by quiet local consensus, the reason the man still cooks a proper breakfast.
Eat the egg.
Be the hen.
Resource the backyard.“]

[“Rajiv Menon KC, a highly respected silk at Garden Court Chambers and a former head of chambers, is facing proceedings for contempt of court. The alleged contempt concerns a closing speech that Rajiv delivered to a jury at the Woolwich Crown Court in January 2026. The trial involved pro-Palestine activists causing criminal damage to weapons and other property at a factory in Filton, Bristol belonging to Elbit Systems, Israel’s largest arms manufacturer. Not only is this the first time in English legal history that a barrister is being prosecuted for contempt in respect of a closing speech at a criminal trial, but the procedure being used to prosecute Rajiv is wholly novel and without historical precedent.
Until this week, any publication about Rajiv being prosecuted for contempt has been prohibited by various court orders. As a result of reporting restrictions now being lifted, Garden Court Chambers is at last able to comment publicly on this matter. We have supported Rajiv throughout the proceedings, including significant numbers of our members attending court hearings at the Royal Courts of Justice.
Rajiv is independently represented by solicitors and leading counsel who have made powerful arguments about the jurisdictional legality and procedural propriety of the contempt proceedings being brought against Rajiv. Judgment is currently awaited from the Court of Appeal (Civil Division). It is hoped that the arguments being advanced will prevail, and that the proceedings against Rajiv will be swiftly concluded without Rajiv having to stand trial. Whatever the outcome, Garden Court Chambers will continue to support Rajiv.
It is important to note that the prosecution of Rajiv for contempt has wider constitutional implications. We are extremely concerned about the chilling effect on the Bar of the state seeking to criminalise barristers for their representation of their clients. Such action is bound to undermine the confidence of the public that those charged, particularly in political and controversial cases, can receive the committed representation that they would expect to be provided.“]

A game that the LibDems have played, and before them the Liberal Party, for many decades. Default option for those unable or unwilling to support Lab or Con (and now, Reform or Green).
It really exposes the nonsense of FPTP voting that the LibDems are now in 5th place in popular polling, behind Reform and Greens/Cons/Lab, yet are predicted to come second or third in terms of seats, merely because the LibDem vote is concentrated in about 100 out of 650 seats. Thus the LDs get 50-100 seats, despite only getting, nationwide, below 15% of the popular vote.

Local elections in the UK are yet another System stitch-up, deliberately staggered in different years so that each System party is likely to get a piece of the pie, continuously.

Slightly further back in time there was Andrew Roberts (now elevated to the House of Lords, thanks to “Boris”-idiot). His father owned Job’s Dairy and the UK part of Kentucky Fried Chicken.
Trump’s actions prove he’s no longer a Nato ally and the rest of Europe needs to “double down” on defence spending to replace America’s “firepower” says Nato’s Former Deputy Supreme Allied Commander, General Sir Richard Shirreff. pic.twitter.com/Uo558SgLms
The General’s first assertion is right, the second not quite right. The UK must leave NATO, cultivate friendly though independent relations with Russia (which really wants that from us), and stand with Russia and all true Europeans against Islamism, Zionism, and non-European migration-invasion.
Russia will give us cost-price fuel, maybe even free fuel, and will provide a massive market for British goods, services, and expertise.
Those people should be on our side, and really want to be on our side.

The panicdemic/scamdemic and the associated supposed “vaccines” are, combined, so big a lie, so great a scandal, that even now many people cannot accept the truth; the same applies to the associated stupidities—facemask-muzzling, “social distancing”, “the Rule of Six” (that absurdity only seen in England, and invented by “Boris”-idiot and little Matt Hancock) etc. The same goes for the ongoing economic consequences of the overall scam.
Even now, you still see the occasional loonie or idiot, usually middle-aged or elderly, wearing a facemask. I saw one today in a supermarket. I am sure that her health is hugely improved by wearing some ancient, filthy bit of cloth over her mouth and nose for years…
That loonie looked a bit like the one in the first cartoon below:

The migrant-invaders have just been ferried in by the Border Force (Border Farce). This is a deliberate and planned conspiracy to flood the UK and other countries with non-Europeans. Google “Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan” (though Jews and others have vandalized the Wikipedia article).

Starmer: "An election where what I would call patriotic values of tolerance, decency, live and let live, diversity, are under challenge like we’ve never seen before"
There comes a time when fair liberty becomes ugly licence, when “diversity” becomes the swamping of a culture, when reasonable tolerance becomes weak acceptance of wickedness and evil, and when “decency” no longer has meaning.
“Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.“
[Matthew 7:6]
Starmer cannot see what is staring more and more people in the face about the state of this country and its direction of travel (straight down); he is also entirely without self-consciousness, even by System-drone political standards. He’s going down, and Labour will go down with him (or without him).
King Charles is ready for Trump, but would Elizabeth have cancelled? https://t.co/nIJ3ttRCON
I have always tried to be fair to the former Prince Charles, now King, but he recently agreed to become a patron of the “Community Security Trust” [“CST”], the Jew-Zionist snoop-and-strongarm organization.
As far as I am concerned, Charles has cancelled himself.

Translates to a Commons with about 360 Reform MPs (very solid majority), 63 LibDems (extremely weak official Opposition), 62 Greens, 48 Lab, 45 Cons, 44 SNP [etc].
You can see why the Jew/Zionist/Israel lobby has been scrabbling to influence or take over Reform UK— they think, with reason, that Reform will probably form the next government, maybe self-standing, maybe with Con support; of course, on the figures shown above, Reform would need no support.
Incidentally, once again (as shown in all recent polls, for several months) Starmer-stein would lose his own seat.

That tweeter “@ShaneDollards” has it right: yes, most voters despise and distrust Starmer-stein, but they also despise and indeed hate Labour itself (and, not much less, the fake “Conservatives”). Labour MPs should read the room…and the polls.

Interesting. My own “political compass” was assessed as being very similar; on the same graphic, slightly lower and slightly to the left of tweeter Sophie Meaden.
As to the chalked message, it is said that the old Soviet Spetsnaz had an unofficial saying: “when the real revolution comes, we shall not kill those with big houses and cars, and we shall not kill those who talk about social justice, but we shall kill those with big houses and cars who talk about social justice.”
Were they wrong, looking at the UK, USA etc today?

Translates to a Commons with about 323 Reform UK MPs (3 short of overall majority), 71 Cons (very weak official Opposition), 63 Greens, 62 LibDems, 59 Lab, 44 SNP [etc].
So there it is. Reform still the only game in town but, crucially, needing support to govern.
Also, as with the last (?) 15-20 opinion polls, this one shows Starmer as very likely to lose his own seat. I think that Starmer will quite likely decide not to lead Labour into the next general election. He must see the writing on the wall, surely.
He's going to back down again, in the way he always does when he ramps up the rhetoric to hysterical levels. But the rhetoric is enough. This man is in charge of the world's largest nuclear arsenal, and he's clearly mentally unstable. What are US lawmakers actually waiting for. https://t.co/vmpJtQfll1
The —in Hitler’s phrase— “dirty democratic politicians” always place personal interest, and then party interest, above national or world interest. We saw that in the UK in, to take just one example, the extended —and totally unnecessary— “lockdowns” etc during the 2020-2022 “Covid” nonsense (panicdemic/scamdemic).
Too right it does.
In 26 days' time we will:
✅Abolish Section 21 ‘no fault’ evictions ✅Introduce periodic tenancies ✅Limit rent increases to once a year ✅Ban rental bidding & rent in advance ✅Make discrimination against renters who have children or receive benefits illegal https://t.co/owJOsKDgbJ
For once, the Starmer-Labour government does something worthwhile.
One change not made, but which should be made, is to abolish rental deposits. Inconvenient, irritating (when repaid or not repaid at end of tenancy), and unnecessary anyway (the landlord-parasites need not be potentially out of pocket, because they can just tack a small amount onto each weekly, monthly, or other durational rent payment).
Forcing the hardworking British people to send billions in foreign aid to nations that simultaneously demand trillions more in “slavery reparations” is one of the greatest Ponzi schemes of all time.

Until 1976, you could walk into a shop in London, England called Harrods and buy a lion, a camel, or an elephant. In 1969, two young Australians named John Rendall and Ace Bourke walked in and bought a three-month-old lion cub.

They named him Christian. He lived with them above a furniture shop, played in local gardens, and rode around the city in the back of a convertible. When he outgrew London, they flew him to Kenya, where a conservationist named George Adamson released him into the wild in the Kora National Reserve.
A year later, the two men flew back to find him. Adamson warned them Christian was now fully wild and might not remember them. Despite being the head of a wild pride, Christian recognised them immediately and ran to greet them. The reunion was filmed, and the footage has since been viewed over 100 million times.
Christian was last seen in early 1973, heading north. He was never seen again.“]

Children loved it. Parents thought it meant a better fit. Nobody told them they were standing directly on top of an unshielded X-ray tube, absorbing radiation that scattered straight up through their legs and body every time.
In 1999, Time magazine named it one of the 100 worst ideas of the 20th century.“]
I remember doing that occasionally, maybe once per year, at one of the two now-long-gone smallish department stores in Reading (Berkshire, UK), either Wellstead’s or Heelas, maybe the former, having been taken there by my mother. Early to mid-1960s.

Britain should leave NATO, and cultivate far better relations with Russia. We could get oil and gas for our people at cost price, or even below cost price. This is a realistic possibility.
