Saturday quiz

Well, this week brings me 6/10, thus doing slightly better than political journalist John Rentoul. I did not know the answers to questions 3, 5, 7, and 9; a couple of educated guesses paid off this week, if truth be known.

The party formerly known as Labour…

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13848783/Fury-Labour-MP-says-OAPs-choice-heating-on.html

A Labour MP was lambasted last night over ‘abhorrent’ claims pensioners losing their winter fuel allowance have a ‘choice’ whether to put the heating on.

Newly elected Crawley MP Peter Lamb said anyone who needs the payment to afford heating will still get it as he defended axing the subsidy.

Yet campaigners said millions of pensioners will struggle this winter without the subsidy, which is worth up to £300 on energy bills.

Defending his decision amid criticism it would let ‘old people go cold’, he tweeted: ‘If people choose not to put the heating on after several above-inflation increases in the state pension then that’s their choice.

Last night, after being approached by the Mail, Mr Lamb apologised.

[useless “Labour” drone, Peter Lamb, the very picture of a careerist know-nothing]

We are told that the remedy for useless and nasty little freeloaders of that sort is to “vote them out” in four or five years’ time. Really? Yes, he probably will lose his easy £91,000+ salary and generous expenses (and other income sources) in due course, but do you think that really frightens him and the many others like him?

The bastard did not even have the guts to stand by his remarks; he just caved in when the Daily Mail approached him and told him that he was going to feature in the newspaper.

At least Myerson was sacked as Recorder (p/t judge) a few months ago. It’s a start at least.

Strange, that quoted tweet by Myerson.

“UK Lawyers for Israel” [“UKLFI”], of which Myerson is or was a member and (if I am not mistaken) office-holder or former office-holder, and the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], of which Myerson is a member or supporter, have both made contrived and malicious complaints against me, in the case of the “CAA” for over a decade now, arguably starting with one by “UKLFI” that got me disbarred (albeit 8 years after I had ceased active Bar practice): see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2017/07/09/the-slide-of-the-english-bar-and-uk-society-continues-and-accelerates/.

Western countries are taking very big risks by trying to allow Ukraine to strike deep into Russian territory, said retired US Army officer Daniel Davis. ” We are literally playing with fire. The leaders of Western countries do not realize that with their decisions they are bringing the world closer to a new stage of military action, which could bring even greater risks of escalation ,” he added.” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_L._Davis].

Not bleeding as much as the children killed and mutilated by Israeli war crimes.

True, but Goodwin fails to mention the most important factor— the gene pool.

The only way to maintain civilization, and to then move it to a higher level, is to build upon a European-race foundation. That can be the basis for a later quantum leap in consciousness, a “super-race” if you like.

Importation of non-European populations destroys the possibility of creating even the early foundation for that. That is why the forces of Evil want race-consciousness and European race itself to be expunged.

I have thought for some time, 1-2 years, that we are closer to the edge than most believe. Think back to 1914 and 1939.

Now it seems that Starmer (a complete NWO/ZOG/Israel lobby puppet) is pushing even more than the American hawks for “Ukraine” (the Jewish regime in Kiev) to be able to attack all parts of Russia with long-range missiles. This is akin to Russia or Belarus supplying Cuba with rockets and allowing them to be used on all parts of the USA. Think about it.

I had thought Rudolf Steiner mistaken in answering a woman who asked him, in the early 1920s, whether she might reincarnate with him in the later 20th/21st Century (Steiner died in 1925), that she might, were she willing to walk with him across broken glass in a devastated Europe.

I also thought, up until about 15 years ago, that nuclear war between NATO and the Soviet Union, and then Russia, would never happen, or be allowed to happen.

As things stand, I am seriously wondering how much time our present civilization has left.

If war starts, in a big way, between Russia and the NATO alliance, it may take on a life of its own (literally), and prove hard to stop. It would probably escalate and go nuclear.

What is our country becoming?” asks former MP Andrew Bridgen. Read about the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, and also read the Protocols of Zion, and that will give you a pretty good general idea.

Starmer is only 2 months or so into a 4-5 year tenure (assuming of course that he and “diversity-hire-on-a-stick” Lammy do not help to precipitate a nuclear war before 2029).

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13767277/Gypsy-Roma-traveller-pupils-mobile-children-government-guidance.html

“Gypsy and Roma traveller pupils are to be referred to as ‘mobile children’ under new government guidance.

New pupil absence advice issued by the Department for Education uses the term to refer to students ‘of no fixed abode’ who miss school while their parents are ‘travelling during the course of their trade or business’.

The law allows children to be away from the classroom while their parents are travelling for occupational reasons.

[Daily Mail]

The whole problem, not just the child aspects, of those “communities” is one not properly addressed by the present System parties in government.

Mark Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal wanted to 1. make up a fake “antisemitic incident” for tribal political reasons, 2. have that publicized in the Daily Mail etc by dishonest Jewish scribbler Sabrina Miller (see earlier blogs), 3. make money out of it all via “compensation” payments (as they had done on previous occasions).

The Daily Mail should sack Sabrina Miller at once.

nb. I have blogged on previous days about the attempted scam and/or stunt.

Why? Simply because both main System parties are under the influence of the same or similar cabals, pursuing the same agenda overall.

Incidentally, this will mean that any non-European —African, Afghan, whatever— with some kind of ad hoc EU travel document will be able to enter the UK…

Autarky is possible for Russia; it is also possible for Europe as a whole. The UK can link to one or the other, or both.

Well, this week is one of those rare ones when political journalist John Rentoul has managed to beat me. He scored, he says, 6.5/10; I scored a modest 4/10, knowing the answers only to questions 2, 6, 8, and 10. I also came close on questions 5 and 9, but a miss is a miss…

As I blogged yesterday, the events of 1944 (which really are, in 2024, rather overdone anyway, bearing in mind that only people born before about 1936 or 1937, i.e. those now at least 87-88 years old, would personally remember them) naturally mean nothing to Sunak, who after all is not really British and was only born in 1980.

Ha. Looks as though Andrea Jenkyns is going to have to find one of those jobs the Con Party wants the disabled and sick to do, such as stacking shelves. Hard to imagine that she would be qualified for anything else, and her seat is gone, for sure: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leeds_South_West_and_Morley_(UK_Parliament_constituency); the former Morley and Outwood constituency, but with a new added area which is generally anti-Conservative Party: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farnley_and_Wortley_(ward).

I wrote about Andrea Jenkyns on the blog years ago. I was probably too kind about her: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/05/21/the-andrea-jenkyns-story/.

Andrea Jenkyns, with her husband (or ex-husband; it seems unclear), Jack Lopresti [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Lopresti] are both Con Party MPs, and both are also members of Conservative Friends of Israel. His constituency (also to be fought on new boundaries) may be “safer” than his wife’s or ex-wife’s, but whether safe enough to save Lopresti from also having to stack shelves is an open question: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filton_and_Bradley_Stoke_(UK_Parliament_constituency). His only real job prior to becoming an MP was in his family’s ice-cream business (he is of Sicilian origin).

Andrea Jenkyns and Jack Lopresti. Both pro-Israel and the UK Jewish lobby? Kick them both into the political gutter, dear voters.

Ha. Engaging vision— Sunak in a chariot, throwing gold coins at the plebs and soldiers lining the roads, and shouting “50 gold sesterces for every man!“, as near the end of the 1964 film, The Fall of the Roman Empire:

“Boris” Johnson channelling his inner Yiddish-speaker, it seems. He is of course, partly Jewish.

[“Boris” Johnson at the Wailing Wall, aka Western Wall or “Kotel” in Jerusalem]

I remember when I first heard the word “Schnorrer“. It was just after a Jew who was Director of Public Prosecutions, one Green, had been caught “kerb-crawling” at King’s Cross in 1991: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allan_Green_(barrister).

At that time, I was often to be found, on quiet weekday mornings, in Raoul’s Cafe, Little Venice. One of the several Jews who were also regular patrons was someone called Jerry (I never knew his surname), a former Royal Navy Lt.-Commander (perhaps surprisingly), and one-time scholar of the Jewish house at Clifton College (Bristol)[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clifton_College]; [https://www.thejc.com/family-and-education/clifton-colleges-jewish-family-q7qjk71c].

That “Jerry” person happened to be at the same large cafe table as me that morning and, he somehow knowing that I was at the Bar (very recently Called, I think), started to talk about Green. His words stuck in my mind. Green, said he, “is what we [Jews] call a Schnorrer“, though his brief explanation of the word was even less polite than that of Robert Peston.

Instructive in two senses. First, look at that horrible little “journalist” careerist. Typical. Never give a “journalist” (whether scribbler or TV monkey-on-a-stick) the time of day. They have an agenda, and are enemies subservient to the “usual” lobby.

Secondly, it shows, yet again, that Reform UK is merely “controlled opposition”, and with no loyalty to its own members and candidates. Still, I hope that Reform UK does well enough to help kill off the Conservative Party, as well as moving the “Overton Window” a bit.

Just saw the above tweets, posted on Twitter/X in 2023.

Austin, now unmeritoriously in the House of Lords (thanks to “Boris” Johnson), actually wrote at least one letter to the then Director of Public Prosecutions sometime in recent years, and on behalf of the malicious “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], which letter or letters demanded that I be prosecuted for allegedly having posted “antisemitic” tweets and/or blog comments.

Incidentally, the same Jewish girl student who spearheaded Zionist complaints against the later and wrongfully sacked Dr. David Miller at Bristol University, one Sabrina Miller (no relation), actually defended Austin in relation to the pornography matter, and appeared to be, in a post or posts I saw online, not unsympathetic to his views at the time. She is now a scribbler for the Daily Mail.

Strangely, Austin’s Wikipedia entry seems not to mention his views on the rather unpleasant pornographic matter in question.

“Jack Monroe” (Melissa Hadjicostas) is no more “trans” than I am. A “grifting” cheat, liar, and fraudster, yes.

She is now falling back on previously-deployed (several times; indeed, many times) lies: she is “persecuted“, “having to hide” (“with her son”, who is now about 20 years old and who was mainly taken care of by others in his earlier years) “in safe houses“.

Not forgetting the Press apparently doorstepping her (she’s used that lie several times too) and “stalkers” stalking her in her home area (yawn…another much-trotted-out invention). Oh, and her alleged need for “bodyguards“. Would they be private ones, costing hundreds of pounds per day? Police ones, like some of the royals, and some Cabinet ministers, sometimes have? And does anyone not feeble-minded believe a word of all her nonsense?

“Jack” also claims, yet again, to be under police protection and, yet again, has no idea at all where the last year’s donations from well-meaning but brainless mugs have gone…

Of course she doesn’t…

As for why those utter mugs are still —after years of “Jack” being exposed as a dishonest cheat and fraud— sending her money every month, that is hard to say (beyond simple naivety and/or stupidity). I am not a psychiatrist.

Yes. It has been puzzling to me why the Essex Police, so hot on “racist” teddy bears and “antisemitism”, can find no time to investigate a woman who has ripped off hundreds of thousands of pounds from people, often genuinely poor people, over about 10-12 years. Whether it has anything to do with freemasonry (I think that her father, a former high-ranking fire officer and residential property landlord in Southend, is a freemason, though I am ready to be corrected if that is not so), I have no idea.

The only danger “Jack” is in (excepting possible arrest and/or quite likely civil legal action soon), is that she might be poisoned by the swill she pretends to cook.

As I have blogged in the past, I could imagine “Jack Monroe”, under other circumstances, being a far more serious kind of criminal.

“Jack Monroe” reminds me (her incredible portfolio of lies, and screamingly implausible tales and fantasies, remind me) of the Fawlty Towers episode where, looking at Basil, the psychiatrist says to his wife, “there’s material for an entire conference there“.

Whereas the main System parties have detailed, properly costed, fully or largely worked out policies…most of which are never implemented. Isn’t “democracy” wonderful?…

When “they” have power and others do not…

If that were to occur, it would be absurd. An election for Conservative Party leader could not happen (could it?) until after the General Election. It is uncertain at present even who will or will not retain his/her seat.

In any case, who would want to apply for the job, facing certain defeat in 3.5 weeks’ time? Traditionally, leaders resign after a lost election, so the idea makes no sense.

I suppose that Sunak might resign as Con leader, but retain the Prime Ministership until the General Election on 4 July.

Were Sunak to step down as PM as well, I suppose that the brainless Oliver Dowden might become caretaker Prime Minister. After the inevitable loss of the election, Dowden would then cease to be PM (and, ludicrously, be eligible, as was Liz Truss, for the ex-PM’s £125,000 or £150,000 p.a. for life!).

Re Dowden, I saw this: “Dowden is a former officer of the Conservative Friends of Israel, and has twice chaired the APPG for British Jews. Dowden has said he feels a “cultural affinity” with the Jewish community – his constituency of Hertsmere has the largest Jewish population outside of London.[18]” [Wikipedia]

Nein danke…

Were Sunak to resign as Con Party leader and/or PM prior to 4 July 2024, the Conservative Party might, quite seriously, be left with only a handful of MPs. I think that, for many voters, it would be the last straw.

As it is, we see people at Cabinet level attacking Sunak, the Prime Minister. Con Party discipline is non-existent now as the Titanic prepares to sink beneath the waves.

Difficult questions this week. I scored 4/10, but even that very modest score was enough to trump that of political journalist John Rentoul, who managed only 2/10. I knew the answers to questions 1, 5, 6, and 7. I came close (in my opinion, anyway) to getting no. 2 as well.

Interesting. Well worth an hour of anyone’s time.

I liked the comment from a 90-something ex-soldier who said that, looking at Britain in the 21stC, he wishes that Hitler had successfully invaded in 1940 (in fact, there never was a serious plan to invade the UK: Hitler wanted alliance with the British Empire, not to conquer it. “Operation Sealion” [Fall Seelowe] was never more than a contingency plan and/or a smokescreen with which to lull Stalin into a false sense of security prior to Barbarossa).

I also liked the several comments by old soldiers now wishing that they had fought for Hitler.

Starmer’s priorities are: 1. Whatever Israel and the Jewish lobby want; 2. To eliminate any remaining free speech (and refer to previous priority); 3. To destroy what is left of Britain as a real nation, rather than a geographic space filled with globalized economic entities, including humanoid entities (and refer to no.1 above); 4. The self-interest of “Labour” politicians and hangers-on [e.g., most recently, Ayesha Hazarika].

They should have been kicked into the gutter and stamped on. They are nothing but sub-terrorists, using their age and sex as a shield.

Just Stop Oil is a pathetic excuse for a cause or ideology; worthless.

Those ridiculous old “entitleds”, crowing about their “Christian” faith, will try to destroy a (genuine) “national treasure”, but probably welcome the migration-invasion which will destroy this country and its society long before any “climate change” (however caused).

Typical msm scribbler thinks that “govt” can “solve poverty”. That depends on various other factors. In the case of the UK, you have importation of around a million unwanted immigrants every single year now, a fact which scribbler Paul Lewis ignores. Simply ignores. As if to say “million immigrants a year? Irrelevant. Just build more houses for them” (for these mostly useless parasites). Oh, and give them cash, and medical services, and schools for their offspring (etc).

4 million? Try 12…(and, by 2034, 25M, or more).

I doubt whether scribbler (posing as an economist) Paul Lewis has much real expertise in the economics of a state or a society (about your electricity or gas bill, maybe; I do not know).

Both lots of demonstrators are deluded in their own ways.

I used to go to Brighton Beach (New York) occasionally. Early 1990s. It was a largely Russian-speaking neighbourhood then. There was a large shop selling good bread, and pickled herrings and cucumbers etc.

Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose it.

Macron is an idiot. France would not survive war (totally pointless and unnecessary war) with Russia. One Sarmat-2 missile might take out, i.e. destroy, about 90% of the whole of France. I value France, where I lived for 3-4 years; I do not want to see that beautiful country destroyed.

Macron is yet another puppet of the Israel/Jewish lobby: see https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/09/on-recent-events-in-france/, my assessment of Macron from 5+ years ago.

Worth reading the explanation.

That case is a good example of how some Jewish lawyers abuse the English legal system. See also: https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/01/11/update-re-mark-lewis-lawyer-questions-are-raised/.

Mr Justice Nicklin said this in another case: “It is likely that this error occurred because he [Mr Lewis] had simply failed to carry out sufficient (or any) research or to take adequate instructions from his clients.

[per James Wilson]

Dishonest and incompetent…

Both Mark Lewis and Daniel Berke are fanatical Jew-Zionists. Lewis even lives, some or most of the time, in Eilat, Israel.

As said, both dishonest and incompetent, in the case of Lewis. As to Daniel Berke, I have no idea of how competent or incompetent he is in the civil law field (I read that he is a criminal solicitor), but on the face of the above, he seems as incompetent as Lewis.

As I opined some time ago, there seems to have been professional negligence on the part of Lewis, and that may now apply to Berke as well.

Incidentally, Berke also opines about “antisemitism” being connected to “mental illness”:

Seems that Berke’s knowledge of both “antisemitism” and mental illness is as sketchy as his knowledge of civil procedure seems to be. See https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/07/18/theyre-coming-to-take-me-away-ha-ha/ [updated consistently], in which I examined the incontrovertible links between Jew-Zionism, Jewish “antifascism”, and mental illness.

Yet anywhere hosting anti-Zionists, whether political (London Forum, Patriotic Alternative, Keep Talking etc), entertainers (Alison Chabloz, Gilad Atzmon), metaphysical speakers (eg David Icke) or whatever, will be “hounded” by packs of Jews such as the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”], “Hope not Hate” (“HnH”] and others.

When will the Daily Mail (etc) cover that story? Never…

Fair enough, but Neil is completely at one with Israel and the Jew-Zionist lobby, and the Jewish element has been the driving force behind the attack on freedom of expression throughout the Western world: so-called “race relations” and “anti-hate” laws (designed to shut down socio-political debate), “holocaust” “denial” laws (designed to make aspects of modern history off-limits to both non-Jewish historians and members of the public) etc.

Incidentally, should anyone wish to help defray the costs of my own recent free speech trial, the crowdfunder is still open: https://www.givesendgo.com/GC14J.

Could Andrew Neil be more craven? All his money, yet no real independence, in my opinion.

Like Andrew Neil (pre-2024), I have never watched Eurovision and (unlike Neil) do not intend to change my habit today. I have no interest at all in the Israeli contestant, positive or negative, or in any of the other howling freaks and noisemakers taking part.

I did notice that Denmark’s entry is an African! Not even a beautiful one. “Those whom the gods wish to destroy, they first make mad“…

The number of foreign mercenaries participating in the conflict on the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has decreased by two thirds compared to March 2022 , writes “Business Insider”.

“Half of the mercenaries come from Latin American countries hoping to make money. They are there for money,” said Carl Larson, a former American soldier who fought in Ukraine.

He also admitted that, while he was in Ukraine, he realized that foreign mercenaries would not be able to stop the Russian forces and that they could only delay their advance “perhaps for an hour“.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11823969/Classics-like-Cinderella-Sleeping-Beauty-examined-branded-outdated-harmful.html

Ladybird Books has used sensitivity readers to re-examine some of its children’s fairytales to check their inclusivity, according to The Sunday Telegraph.

The Penguin-owned publisher’s catalogue includes classic tales such as Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty – but the characters and plots have been identified as ‘outdated or harmful’.

Industry insiders claim problematic tropes include a lack of diversity among blonde-haired and blue-eyed protagonists.

[Daily Mail]

There you have it. “Blonde and blue-eyed” (i.e. white European) people not wanted. In other words, “White Genocide”, albeit at this stage “only” on the printed page. How long before the inferior peoples want to go a stage further, and kill us “in real life”?

Apart from that, how sad. The enemies of Europe want to destroy everything beautiful and worthwhile, or pervert it.

Eventually there must be real resistance from European people. There will eventually be a civil war which will be partly racial, partly cultural (but of course “race is the rootstock, culture is the flower“), and partly ideological.

It goes beyond even government. Entrenched cultural and economic power cabals.

“Brexit” was not a mistake, as such, but it was completely incompetently done (possibly deliberately, as well, in part). The UK should have cut itself adrift from EU rules and laws and policies, kept or “nationalized” those that made sense, jettisoned the rest, then joined with Russia in a special trading relationship— the UK stands aside from active participation in NATO and, in return, gets free or cheap oil and gas from Russia.

Incidentally, Julia Grace Patterson, though qualified in medicine, only practised for a short time (in hospital A&E) before dropping out. She also studied psychiatry for a year, but has never practised in the field, as far as I know.

The “campaigning” of “Every Doctor” seems to be largely based around “Covid” fanaticism (especially the facemask nonsense— Ms. Patterson just happens to sell facemasks…), and demands for NHS doctors to be paid (even) more.

Russian forces are not working as a co-ordinated whole. The responsibility for that may reside in various places but, at the end of the day, resides with Putin himself. In the American phrase, “the buck stops there“…

The Bakhmut/Artyomovsk battle has become a trial of strength extremely important for the morale of both sides.

All the same, if Russian forces lose out, Russia can still step up its war operations generally in Ukraine with more destructive methods yet, in theory right the way up to nuclear ICBMs. Ukraine or Kiev-regime commanders cannot; they have no such weapons. The most for which they can hope is relatively few high-grade Western weapons such as fighter aircraft and Abrams tanks, the capabilities of which latter are phenomenal— what would Rommel or Guderian not have given for such tanks in the early/mid 1940s?

Interesting, especially if the ratio is accurate. Yesterday, it was all “one Ukrainian [Kiev-regime] fighter killed for every seven Russians“, but today it seems that the losses are equal on both sides,

I wonder whether that 1:7 ratio claim was part of the propaganda pumped out saying that the Kiev-regime soldiers are some kind of elite (not very plausible from what I see on Twitter and in the UK msm), whereas the Russian soldiers are “orcs” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orc].

The aim of the Kiev regime here (as also with much of the UK/US “reportage”, if it can be called that), is to dehumanize the Russian soldiers. We see little or nothing from the Russian side of the conflict in the msm; even on Twitter etc, the Kiev-regime has “played a blinder” in propaganda terms compared to the stolid offerings of the Russian Foreign Ministry and the unsophisticated social media output of individual Russian tweeters.

One notes that (up to ministerial level, i.e. tweets by government ministers) the Kiev regime notes not only the damage done to civilians (by Russians, never by pro-Kiev Ukrainians), and also tweets about abandoned or rescued cats and dogs. The aim is obviously to capture the hearts of Western readers (the tweets have English subtitles).

I am 100% in favour of the cats and dogs, and indeed those helping them, as far as that goes, but there are probably as many doing that on the Russian side (in Donetsk etc); we never hear or see anything about that.

As I say, the Kiev-regime side is far more sophisticated in terms of propaganda aimed at the West (even/especially when appearing to be artless) than the Russian side.

Compare the cultural history of Russia and Ukraine. For whatever reason, Russia has a far more complex and rich cultural background than Ukraine: music, literature, philosophy etc. Yet the Russians are, supposedly, the “orcs“…

A CNN report from 6 weeks ago.

If Russian forces can complete the encirclement of Bakhmut/Artyomovsk, they may capture thousands of Kiev-regime troops; even if the latter escape encirclement, they would be all but spent, and would have to slowly straggle northward. Whether the Russian forces could then make a big advance is, however, an open question.

Twitter

As I write, I see that there seems to be a problem with Twitter, and so with the tweets that I have embedded today. Hopefully, the problem will be resolved.

On this day a year ago

Ukraine and Russia— popular perceptions

I was just thinking about the “level”, culturally, of Russia and Ukraine.

When you think of Russia in terms of historical culture, a host of names come to mind at once. In the world of literature, you could cite —to name but a few of the most famous— Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky, Chekhov, Pushkin, Gogol, Turgenev, Bulgakov, Lermontov, Sholokhov, Leskov, Yevtushenko, Solzhenitsyn etc.

Some of those writers, eg Gogol and Bulgakov, were in fact born in Ukraine; Gogol was ethnically and culturally Russian as well as Ukrainian. After all, Ukraine and Russia were together for a thousand years.

In music, one thinks of, inter alia, Tchaikovsky, Rimsky-Korsakov, Glazunov, Glinka, Rachmaninov, Scriabin, Borodin, Stravinsky, Prokofiev, Balakirev, Mussorgsky, Shostakovitch, Myaskovsky, Khrennikov, Popov, Shchedrin, Sviridov and many others.

The same can be said of painters.

As to Ukrainian writers, composers etc, there are quite a number (e.g. Lyatoshinsky), but few who would be known to people in the UK, USA etc.

It is true that, until about 30 years ago, there was a broadly Russifying policy in the Ukraine and, in both the 19thC and under Stalin, a general repression of Ukrainian language, but that is not the whole picture.

Ukraine is a country the same size as France, and which has today a population of over 40 million (minus 5-10 million now living beyond its borders).

There can surely be no doubt that, historically, Russia has produced a great deal more, culturally, than Ukraine, whatever reasons can be adduced, yet when we look at Western propaganda, whether in the msm or on Twitter etc, all we see is that Russians are “savages“, or “orcs” (a reference to the brutal and stupid evil soldier-creatures of The Lord of the Rings) and so on.

By contrast, the Ukrainian (Kiev regime) people and soldiers are represented as being far far better than Russians.

Well, of course, “in war, truth is the first casualty” but, even so, it is “disappointing” to see how easily bamboozled many people are in, say, the UK, and how enthusiastically the basically Jewish-pervaded msm has embraced its faux-war propaganda role.

In the absence of credible intelligence (available to me), I cannot comment on the “UFO” reports.

I am hardly a fan of Trump, that squawking parrot in a cage guarded by Zionist Jews, but it is probably true to say that the Ukraine war would be over now without US leaders stoking the conflict by supplying weapons and money to Zelensky and the Kiev regime.

As blogged previously, China is now, broadly, in a similar position to that of the USA in the 1930s— an economic superpower but not yet a world military superpower. The USA, by contrast, is now in the position that the Western and Central European powers and empires were in at that same time, prior to the Second World War that toppled Europe from its rightful place.

Russia’s feared new offensive has already begun says NATO chief, as he warns Ukraine is using more munitions than military alliance is producing.

The former Prime Minister of Norway called on NATO to ‘ramp up production’ of ammunition, as he said Ukraine’s rate of usage is far outstripping current capacities and draining stockpiles.

‘The current rate of Ukraine’s ammunition expenditure is many times higher than our current rate of production. This puts our defence industries under strain,’ he said.

Stoltenberg admitted that NATO was facing a ‘problem’ as current waiting times for large-calibre ammunition have grown from 12 to 28 months.

[Ukraine: state of play as of 12-13 February 2023]

Looks as though, before too long, the troops of the Kiev regime will run out of ammunition. If that were to happen, those forces would have to fall back, perhaps hundreds of miles back.

Migration-invasion

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11436871/Thousands-asylum-seekers-housed-rural-areas-bid-ensure-fairness.html

Corrupt Jewish-lobby puppet and little pissant, Robert Jenrick, threatens to cover the country with so-called “asylum seekers” (migrant invaders). This is the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan in action: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalergi_Plan; and https://vk.com/@judi1964-coudenhove-kalergi-plan-stealth-genocide-against-the-peoples.

The Daily Mail readers’ comments are instructive. Not even 1% support the housing and feeding of the invaders.

It looks as if the present government is going to keep the State Pension “triple lock” in order to buy (as it hopes) the votes of middle-aged and “senior citizen” “Middle England”, but if the migration-invasion continues, and those here already are not removed or detained in camps, this government is toast electorally, even though Labour would be as bad.

Whichever System party is in power, within it and permeating it will be the members of the transnational cabals, implementing, increasingly openly, the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan, or the “Great Replacement” of white people by blacks, browns, and Chinese etc. The destruction of Europe, and the destruction of Europe’s future.

Ten individuals. Less than one full magazine…

Again the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan.

People think that they are voting “Labour” or “Conservative”, but in reality they are voting for the “Great Replacement”, for the Jewish lobby, and for the New World Order [NWO; ZOG], no matter what System party they vote for.

Just imagine: even as of today, after about three to four months of detail emerging about alleged fraud and near-fraud, “grifting” etc, no fewer than 666 mugs are still sending “Jack Monroe” up to £10 each, every month. (Up to) £6,660 per month in cash.

One has to wonder why.

My opinion is that not all know about what has come out over the past months, but also that many do know yet simply cannot accept that they have been played, or duped, and/or wish to “virtue-signal” (though how supporting the lifestyle of “Bootstrap Cook” actually helps the very many poor and struggling people in our society is hard to understand).

After all, there are many many “activists” and charity workers agitating against poor pay and benefits, and against “food poverty”, “fuel poverty” and, well, poverty.

Likewise, there are quite a few (real) chefs and cooks who have applied their (real) skills to making low-budget food recently, among them the most famous, such as Jamie Oliver.

None of those people ask the public to support them or their lifestyle via Patreon payments, as far as I know.

One could argue that Patreon donors are volunteers, but that assumes that they know the full facts and are not being, in a word, defrauded, or tricked.

Actually, when you look at the Bootstrap Cook situation, you realize how easy it is for the politicians etc to bamboozle the British public over matters such as the “Covid” “panicdemic”, the facemask nonsense, the “Rule of Six” etc, the “austerity” stuff, the “Ukraine” mass media war etc. Add to that “Black Lives Matter”, “trans” nonsense, “anti-racism” etc.

At last, after three months of turning a blind eye and “I see no ships“, the msm is awakening.

They blame everything from the mini-budget of Woollyhead Trussbanger to “Covid”, and even Putin for the slide in living standards which, for most people, has been taking place over the past 30 years, in big picture terms.

1989, the last big year of the 33-year socio-political cycle. 2022, the next one. The influx of blacks and browns etc since the 1980s. The breeding of the same, in vast numbers. Sliding standards in education (despite record numbers of worthless “degrees” etc), and all services, from State benefits to old-age sheltered housing.

This is not some kind of accident. The UK’s life is being deliberately run down, and some of the most guilty of the criminals responsible are the MPs sitting in the Westminster monkeyhouse.

“Journalism”

The online versions of the mainstream Press now employ, it seems, apparently semi-literate graduates of what must be pretty poor “journalism” courses, the substandard product of which I occasionally note on the blog.

Latest example? Sarah “Fergie” Ferguson, we are told, has bought a house in the “upmarket borough of Mayfair in Central London“, according to the Daily Mail (per one Laurence Dollimore). Mayfair is, of course, not a borough; it is merely part of the City of Westminster (which, however, is a London borough).

All the same, the fact is that the Conservative Party has been in power, and above all in power over the Civil Service, for 12 years now. It could have promoted free speech in government and in UK society, but did not.

How many barristers said or wrote a word in defence of me in late 2016, when I was wrongfully and indeed unlawfully disbarred, or supported me in word or deed thereafter? That’s right— not one. Not one of those who had known me and in many cases been on friendly terms with me. Not one of the smug “leaders” of the Bar that is now a dustbin. Not one of the (often Jew) “human rights” barristers. All silent, and so all guilty.

Only the Aryan can give life, only those descended from the Aryan can provide the basis for a future quantum leap in human evolution.

The “CAA” does not burn books, not literally; it simply tries to restrict offline and online sales, while conspiring to have writers questioned by police, or even charged with ridiculous “offences”, as explained earlier in this blog post.

David Icke, like me, like some others, has been a major target of that hate-filled Jewish cabal for many years.

The “CAA” is an example of how a small number of malicious and politically-motivated individuals can put up a facade as if a huge and important organization.

The “CAA” is actually a very small number of Jew-Zionists, not even hundreds, certainly not thousands, out of 250,000+ Jews in the UK. It has wormed its way into a degree of influence with some police forces, and some TV and Press outlets, but is a complete fake. Even some of the notorious Jew-Zionists, such as Margaret Hodge, MP for Barking and a former “Patron” of the CAA, have recently criticized it for being politically-motivated.

Sadly, very true, though “Left wing” (eg “socialist”) is not fully accurate, certainly not the full story. The Jew-Zionist element has a near-stranglehold, as it does over the msm. In fact, not so long ago, the fake UK “charity” known as “Campaign Against Antisemitism” or “CAA” was advertising for “volunteers” with their own Wikipedia accounts to “edit” (vandalize) Wikipedia pages.

Wikipedia is one of the best resources on the Internet, perhaps the best, which makes it all the more irritating that Jew-Zionists and others are using it to spread propaganda.

It is absurd, also, that the mainstream UK newspaper, the Daily Mail, cannot be cited as a source for anything, yet rubbish publications such as the Sun, Mirror, even Morning Star, can be! Incidentally, I have no reason to be kind to the Daily Mail, as you will see if you google “Ian Millard barrister Daily Mail”!

Also, we see that the trend for the State to “outsource” things has now led to the “Boris” etc weaselling that the facemask nonsense will largely end (in law) on 19 July 2021, while at the very same time telling the public that they “should” carry on being scared facemask-wearing rabbits, and also telling —or nod-and-winking— to large supermarkets etc, and airlines, that they should effectively demand that their customers continue to be muzzled.

Screw that, and screw all companies demanding facemask use! Rebel any way you can, especially by boycotting those companies. Vote with your feet, and with your wallet or purse!

After 2008, “austerity” (which was the policy not only of the part-Jews David Cameron-Levita and George Osborne but also of Gordon Brown and Alastair Darling), was completely wrongheaded. Now, though, we see almost the opposite —but skewed— policy of vast sums spent, not on useful infrastructure, nor on real education and upskilling, but on schemes over the past 19 months to keep the population at home, eating delivered junk food, drinking heavily, and watching TV.

I too live in one of the wealthier parts of England, yet the roads are falling to pieces, and public services have been cut to the bone.

(and in most of the USA, minimum-wage workers cannot afford even a one-bed apartment!).

The same or similar problem exists in the UK. Topping-up pay via Universal Credit is quite wrong; it subsidizes poor-paying-employers vis a vis employers who pay decently. Pay must be sufficient to live on. A measure of State-paid Basic Income will also have to come into existence, because the nexus between pay and work is very loose now, and many do not have paid work at all.

Spy story

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9796639/The-story-John-Stonehouse-told-great-nephew.html

Well-written Daily Mail puff for a new book about the arguably infamous, certainly egregious, John Stonehouse [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Stonehouse], who did a “Reggie Perrin” in 1974. For those too young to remember Reggie Perrin, read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fall_and_Rise_of_Reginald_Perrin#Background_and_influence].

Stonehouse was a sensation when exposed as a fraud who had not died, as everyone thought, in 1974, in the sea off Miami Beach (a rather unlikely place to drown anyway). His espionage for socialist Czechoslovakia was not exposed —to the public— until well after his death.

That was an age when politicians, though hardly honoured, were still regarded as basically straight people. The later tidal wave of mediocre and hopeless idiots had not yet filled the Commons. That was another reason why people were fascinated by Stonehouse’s attempted (and very nearly successful) scam.

Other reasons why l’affaire Stonehouse became a sensation, briefly, were because it coincided with that Reginald Perrin TV comedy series, and also because a few other cases of international (British) fugitives had been news for years, notably that of Ronnie Biggs [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronnie_Biggs].

I recall that, when I had to visit the British High Commission in Gaborone, Botswana, in 1977, at age 20, I noticed a small golden plaque by the entrance stating that it had been officially opened by John Stonehouse in 1966, when he had been a minister in the Colonial Office and its successor, the short-lived Commonwealth Office (from 1968, joined with the Foreign Office in the Foreign and Commonwealth Office).

Strange to see that inscription, nearly three years after Stonehouse’s disgrace (but history is history, something both the “BLM” idiots and Zionist Jews might note).

The Daily Mail piece also contained the assertion that one Ernest Fernyhough, PPS to Prime Minister Harold Wilson, had also been (one of a number of Labour MPs) spying for the Czech StB (external intelligence organization). His treachery is new to me, and I see that Wikipedia does not mention it: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernest_Fernyhough.

I imagine that Stonehouse, who was a bit of a Casanova, and a gambler generally, might have been a fairly useful agent for Czech Intelligence, willing to take calculated risks.

As to the book, to be released on 22 July 2021, I might buy the hardback edition via Amazon when it is put on secondhand sale in a few months. RRP is £25.99, but the book can be bought at £18.99. Maybe when there are good, or as-new, used copies for £2 or so. Or, if you like, “when you get down to 90 kopecks, wake me up again”.

Despite that Daily Mail piece having been interestingly written, it contained one schoolboy error by the author (of both the book and the article): speaking in the strict legal sense, Stonehouse did not commit, as the writer claims, “treason”; his alleged espionage crimes would have been charged, had he been charged, under the Official Secrets Act(s) [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Official_Secrets_Act#United_Kingdom].

[Addendum, 18 July 2021: I became aware today that Stonehouse’s daughter, Julia, an author and professional ghost-writer, has also just published a book about the John Stonehouse affair (“affair” in both senses): https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9776079/John-Stonehouses-daughter-breaks-silence-46-years-reveal-financial-deceit.html].

Press standards, and a few other thoughts

From a Daily Mirror report, penned by “journalists” Alec Whitaker and Lorraine King:

Bride-to-be Tiffany Anderson, 28, even done the books for Rhys Mason so he could a tab on his ill-gotten gains while he stored the drugs in the safe at her tanning studio.” https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/beauty-salon-boss-allowed-fiance-23881586

She “done the booksso he could a tab on his ill-gotten gains“?! Newspapers such as the Daily Mirror may not be great literature but they used to be at least halfway literate. Nowadays, supposed journalists are often seen writing such as “she was stood at the back“! Not only the Mirror, incidentally. The Daily Mail is also terrible. Others too.

Neither is the above sentence, about someone called Tiffany, an isolated mistake. Look at the sub-headline in the same report.

On the wider question, how is it that the defendants got off so lightly? The thug boyfriend got 27 months, so he will be out in a year. As for the “ho”…yes, that’s right...suspended sentence. Who needs a Get Out Of Jail Free Card when you have a couple of young children as an argument in mitigation to put before the sentencing judge?

Finally, the court was told that the amount made by the couple was uncertain. Maybe so, but they owned a Range-Rover (albeit a decade old).

If the State, if society, is unwilling to really repress drug dealers and users, it will never solve the problem…

A similar example might be the fairly useless and certainly hypocritical utterances of Laurence Fox, the “Free Speech Union” etc. While they are (like Breitbart, Prison Planet Watson, UKIP, Brexit Party, Farage etc) “controlled opposition”, the utterances of those people and groups do start to awaken some people, if not “radicalize” them directly.

…and there is no semi-placebo vaccine available, ironically.

…”had enough”, perhaps, but “do anything much about it”, beyond posting on Twitter, I doubt it.

I have no quarrel with people trying to raise socio-political consciousness by tweeting, vlogging, blogging (as I myself do), but those activities alone will not trigger anything directly.

I, who once lived in London (mostly Little Venice, but also several other areas from time to time), now have not even visited the capital for over 4 years, and have not followed the contest for the position of Mayor in detail.

I imagine that Khan, though useless and unpleasant, will probably win; the “Conservative” candidate, Shaun Bailey, has never done anything but be a kind of “Uncle Tom” for various parts of the Conservative Party etc, except to run a “charity” which accomplished nothing, and which suffered from financial “irregularities” (though Bailey was never actually charged with anything). Let’s just say that the monies “disappeared” somewhere…[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaun_Bailey_(AM)#Career_before_politics].

Bailey may or may not have been dishonest; he may have been simply incompetent and/or negligent. Just the person to run London! Oh, no…wait!

Since 2016, Bailey has been a “list” member of the London Assembly. Nearly £60,000 a year for doing not a lot…[https://www.london.gov.uk/about-us/governance-and-spending/spending-money-wisely/salaries-expenses-benefits-and-workforce-information].

Bailey recently held a press conference, but the only person he could get to be filmed with him was a woman who could best be described as a “Balkan fraud”, and who was actually convicted of fraud and forgery a number of years ago (in 2013). ‘Nuff said…(for now).

The bookmakers have Khan as 1/33 (thirty-three-to-one on) favourite at present. Bailey is at 45/1 (against), with the second favourite one Brian Rose, an American former banker and heroin addict [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Rose_(podcaster)], and who stands at present at 25/1 in the betting, thus far ahead of Bailey but far far behind Khan: https://www.oddschecker.com/politics/british-politics/london-mayoral-election/winner.

Laurence Fox, the actor and (supposed) “free speech” champion is a candidate (presently in the betting at 250/1).

There are 20 candidates altogether, and a more useless bunch it would be hard to find…[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_London_mayoral_election#Candidates].

They call a circus like that “democracy” (“democrappy”?)…
