[“1945, Belorussky Station (Moscow)— the first train of victory arrives in Moscow“]

Every war, every side in every war, has its rights and wrongs. No side has a monopoly on good or evil, either. That is why historical revisionism is so important, and why laws purporting to criminalize historical examination and debate are so wrongheaded.

The simulacrum of the human” [anon.]

[“The law is black and white, but it’s also subjective which is influenced by current social norms and the political climate.

This is why the Overton window being pushed is so important so speech “offences” get harder and harder to be policed.

People have not been able to talk this freely online – or publicly hold the views that they have – for quite some time. It wasn’t even that long ago you could get banned from social media platforms – or have a knock on the door – for simply stating men can’t become women.

We are obviously nowhere near out of the woods yet with all of this but Elon Musk buying X has most certainly bought us some time with fixing everything going on here in England, Europe, and the Anglosphere.

In my spare time, I have spoken to quite a few people who have been persecuted by the State for speech offences who probably wouldn’t even get a knock on the door these days for the most part.

Hearing these stories has been tough and what they have gone through for “thoughtcrimes” is abhorrent.

Independent thought isn’t a crime, and these silencing tactics is Bolshevism 101.

Our government has a lot to answer for for what it’s done to their citizens for all these years. This is straight up treason.“]

A law student from Plymouth, I think.

Strange co-incidence. I just happened today upon an old email (from well over 20 years ago), sent to me by a girl law student from Plymouth, and thanking me for talking with her and answering questions she had had. She wrote that her talk with me had decided her to continue with her degree course and to go into the practice of law.

I had forgotten about meeting that girl (at an evening reception put on by a university law faculty at a yacht club in Plymouth, and to which a number of barristers, solicitors, and judges had been invited).

I just looked up the individual’s name, to see whether she was mentioned as either solicitor or barrister (I should add that her name is rather unusual). Turns out that, after starting out at the Bar, she had switched to the solicitors’ branch, and is now a partner in a fairly large UK/international law firm, specializing in corporate/commercial work.

Life’s long and winding road is straighter for some than for others.

I have been saying exactly that for months, even years. Farage and Tice cannot see it, because they themselves are really conservatives of a kind, and see nothing wrong with making common cause with unpleasant idiots such as Nadine Dorries and Robert Jenrick.

Britain needs social nationalism, but there is no credible party; in fact, there is no party at all.

Unwise, to say the least, though it does cut the ground from under Kemi Badenoch.

Still fairly open, but with Labour not looking like winners, at this stage.

“Legendary” is close to “mythical”…

Many years ago, in 2015, when Burnham was standing for Labour leadership, I described him as “the best of a very poor bunch” (of 4 candidates). Yes, better than the others, but still a System puppet.

This country is collapsing before our eyes.

I wonder how many white British people are MPs, high-ranking civil servants etc in India, China, Nigeria, the Caribbean, Pakistan etc. That’s right— there are none.

Interesting to think that one nuclear missile at the right time would eliminate hundreds, thousands of major global conspirators, but of course that will not happen.

In that case, Iran might as well fire all of its missiles at Israel, immediately, before the Americans and Israelis can destroy them; the missiles would have to be preceded by thousands of drones to take out the Israeli anti-missile missile defence matrix.

Rubbish, but look at that clip. American naval power is awesome.

Why would they do that? Wherever they go, they cause trouble.

“Uniparty”…

Someone who killed several great empires: the German Reich, then (after 1945, when subject peoples were eventually allowed “independence” because the European nations were exhausted) the French, Belgian, Spanish, Portuguese etc, and…the British Empire as well.

Had Churchill not blagged his way into taking over as Prime Minister in 1940, an honourable armistice might have been, and almost certainly would have been, concluded between the British Empire and the German Reich.

Western and Central Europe would thus have been saved from the ravages of war, and Eastern Europe from at least some of the ravages of war. Stalinism would either have been defeated in the field, or contained east of the Urals. Eastern and parts of Central Europe would then not have fallen under the rule of the Soviet Union in the 1940s (which rule of course lasted until the late 1980s).

In such a scenario, there would have been no premature decolonization in Africa, Asia, and elsewhere. Massive damage to the environment and wildlife would have been largely averted.

That never happened, mainly because Churchill became Prime Minister of the UK. Almost everything else was consequential.

Disastrous.

We in the UK would also have avoided being gradually and largely taken over by the “you know who” special interest tribe. Oh, and would never have been invaded, whether by Windrush (etc) Caribbeans or by rubber boat migrant-invaders from every failed state in the world.

My blog posts from summer 2024 clearly show my own understanding of the early failure of both Starmer-stein and his Labour Friends of Israel misgovernment.

As for the constituency of Gorton and Denton, one of its predecessor constituencies, the main one, was Manchester Gorton, whose MP 1955-1967 was Konni Zilliacus, a crypto-Communist (according to George Orwell) of both Swedish-Finnish and American origins, and whose aged American widow de facto (they never actually married) I knew slightly when I lived in the Little Venice area of London in the 1980s (mainly); she was the friend of a friend: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konni_Zilliacus; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konni_Zilliacus#Personal_life; https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/obituary-jan-zilliacus-1097376.html.

Konni Zilliacus was of affluent background, and had attended both Bedales (school) in Hampshire and, later, Yale.

The Zilliacuses met both Stalin and Tito, inter alia, during the late 1940s.

In what Britain does Polly Mackenzie live? Not the one in which I live.

I was so struck by that stupid woman’s words that I looked her up on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polly_Mackenzie.

Turns out that she is a LibDem who worked for disastrous Clegg when he was Deputy Prime Minister during 2010-2015. She then, according to herself, co-founded the (sank without trace) Women’s Equality Party (Wikipedia does not mention her doing that anyway: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women%27s_Equality_Party), before working at think tanks and, now, appearing on —yes— Times Radio podcasts with the Jewish scribblers Danny Finkelstein and Hugo Rifkind.

Incidentally, the Women’s Equality Party, founded in 2016, and which finally sank beneath the waves in 2024, usually scored less than 1% of the vote, its highest being 3.5% in the 2016 London Assembly elections: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women%27s_Equality_Party#Electoral_performance.

We hear a lot about “terror plots” etc, including “far right” ones, but most (certainly all the supposedly “far right” ones) seem to consist mainly of teenage boys or others downloading bomb-making manuals, or buying samurai swords, or trying to create 3D firearms (but would you really trust your life to such a defective kind of weapon?) and talking big on the Internet (but never doing anything).

The System narrative about all that is mainly a Schauspiel for the bamboozled public, injected into their tiny minds via the mainstream media.

All of this is for perfectly lawful and protected speech and social media posts. For naming one ideology of supremacy. For exposing Britain’s capture by the ‘israel’ lobby. For affirming the Palestinian right to armed resistance as per international law.

Thoughts

I was just watching one of the now-ubiquitous TV “true murder” documentaries, it being called Britain’s Countryside Killers. The facts of the case were not unusual, but I was struck by the fact that one of the interviewees, an Irishman described as “Robert Giles, criminologist and author“, in talking about the case, referred to the suspect as having “been read his Miranda rights” and then, later, not having been “read his rights” (in relation to a second murder).

Now this TV show was covering a murder that took place in England. All the action took place in England. Miranda rights, as such, are a purely American matter. In England, yes, suspects are told something similar, but that is properly referred to as the suspect having been “cautioned”.

At first, I thought that it was just this Giles person not knowing his **** from his elbow, but then I saw that the film narrative (and subtitling) itself talked about the suspect having been “read his rights” and then (later) not given a Miranda warning.

Creeping Americanization, of course; in this case very ignorantly, because Miranda itself was a case in the United States, in Arizona if I recall aright, Miranda having been the surname of the Mexican or Latino suspect/defendant.

Likewise, we hear all the time, even on TV news, or in supposedly serious newspapers, about people “taking the stand” (i.e. entering the witness box, which is the proper English), or “running for office” (standing for election ).

Does it matter? I think that it does, because it evidences cultural and societal colonization. Other examples, of many, might include “train station” (rail or railway station), and “straight-A student“.

This is Trump’s second term. The present U.S. constitutional law (i.e. the 22nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution) only permits an individual 2 Presidential terms, and even were Trump to try to change that, which seems almost impossible in practical reality, Trump is now 79, and will be 82 by the time of the next Presidential election.

Trump’s recent statements remind me of the state of Harold Wilson’s mind by the mid-1970s, exemplified by his advice to two journalists who saw him at Downing Street:

Go to Charing Cross Road. There is a blind beggar there on a street corner. Kick him. That blind beggar may tell you something, lead you somewhere…

It was only a few years after that (1982, I think) that a high-ranking Soviet minister said to a British one, at a State Banquet at the Banqueting House in Whitehall, that it was very sad about Harold Wilson’s mental decline; the British minister just nodded and agreed. At that time, the British public were more-or-less unaware (I knew someone who was present).

Loony, but loony with 4,000+ nuclear weapons, and an awesome naval and military capability.

The fact is that Trump could, in raw military terms, simply seize Greenland but, as blogged in previous weeks and months, only at the cost of more or less destroying NATO.

Silver linings? Well, the main one might be that the USA, and so American influence, would leave Europe, both EU and non-EU states. Those states would then have to come to a rapprochement with Russia. Europe might thus regain much of its independence, since 1945 weakened by dependence on the USA. Jewish influence might also lessen over time.

Incidentally, that little park by the Palace of Westminster, the park from which Davis was speaking, is where some of the Jew-Zionists (and non-Jew puppets such as Robert Jenrick and Starmer-stein) want to plonk an unbelievably-ugly “holocaust” propaganda centre and display of Jewish ethno-supremacism.

Civil servants and officials around the country have promoted the message that trans-identifying people should be treated in accordance with their “gender identity”. Worst of all, children have been encouraged to believe it’s possible to change sex, and that they will be accepted for all purposes as the opposite sex. All these lies and misrepresentations have caused immense damage. Some of the protests have been repulsive and inexcusable. But the angry, distraught trans-identifying people we are hearing from were lied to by thousands of people who should have known better. When you’ve been living a lie, the truth is very painful.

Thoughts about “Tel Aviv Keith” Starmer’s latest nonsense

Starmer has now commented that he may decide to plant British “boots on the ground” in Ukraine. This is a comment which could only be made by someone with no grasp at all of geopolitical realities, and no thought at all for the welfare of the British people.

So what happens if/when serious fighting breaks out between the forces of the Russian Federation and those of the Kiev regime? Presumably, Starmer will want them to fight on the side of the Kiev-regime forces, i.e. against those of the Russian Federation, unless the British forces would just stand there, or retreat westward.

At that point, a NATO nuclear-armed state’s forces would be in direct armed conflict with Russian nuclear-armed forces. What happens when the Brit forces, maybe thousands of them, are destroyed? Send another tranche? How so, when the battle-ready UK Army numbers around 30,000 (some say fewer)?

Has Starmer thought this through? I think not. He’s useless.

Apart from anything else, the Russian Government would inevitably see the presence of NATO troops in Ukraine, whether designated as “peacekeeping forces” or not, as tantamount to a NATO force in Ukraine and on the side of the Kiev regime.

Madness.

This story just breaking in The Telegraph must spell the end of Lord Hermer’s time as Attorney General. It’s been disclosed Hermer fought for compensation for Mustafa al-Hawsawi , one of the plotters of 9/11 where 2,900 people were killed. Hermer claimed the MoD, MI5 and MI6 were complicit in the torture of Hawsawi who was arrested in Pakistan alongside the 9/11 mastermind in 2003. Hermer started taking the terrorist’s money in 2023. A year later al-Hawsawi pleads guilty to murdering 2,900 people and is sentenced to life meaning life. Let’s get this right. One minute Hermer is accusing the MoD torture the next moment he’s on Labour’s payroll. A total shit. And don’t believe all this tosh about lawyer’s having to take the cab off the rank. As a KC he’s so busy he can pick and choose.who he represents. He chose a terrorist. Says all you need to know about Lord Hermer.

[Kelvin MacKenzie]

Starmer is talking s**t, as usual. Not only would putting UK “boots on the ground” be likely to go very wrong, and potentially lead to a conflict between the UK and Russia, possibly nuclear, but it seems that the quantity and indeed quality of British troops would be inadequate, taking “quality” to include their equipment, arms, armament, air “lift” power etc.

The best soldiers in the world are all but helpless without the right arms, armament, transport, logistics etc. True, in small scale “special forces” situations that is less so, but the Ukrainian theatre is not like that. Do not think Bosnia, Oman, Northern Ireland; think Second World War or, indeed, First World War.

Large armies, large artillery contingents, slugging it out on a vast scale. Even the present overall front-line is something like 900 miles long.

We see retired Brit senior officers saying that the UK government should be doubling military expenditure “to face Russia”. Why? There is actually no need. Russia is only looking (to some) like an adversary because the UK has been backing the Jew-Zionist regime in Kiev. Russia would much prefer to have cordial or at least normal relations with the UK.

Even leaving that aside, to scale-up the British armed forces to anything like what would be required to have more than a token effect in Ukraine would take not months but years. Personnel, training, re-equipping, rearming etc. Maybe 5 years.

Where would Britain’s retired senior officers’ new fantasy armies come from? Young people in the UK mostly wish to have nothing to do with anything military or naval, and who can blame them, looking at the increasingly degenerate and shambolic country they live in…

Meanwhile, Britain’s people become poorer by the year, Britain’s road and rail network is not even maintained, for the most part, properly, drug and alcohol abuse is rife, the population is degenerating culturally and ethnically, hutches for migrant-invaders threaten what is left of the green and pleasant land, and idealism (whether real or misplaced), is hard to find.

As Starmer and his advisors scurry to Paris this morning collectively shamed by Washington into finally pulling their finger out on defence, here’s two cold hard realities.

1. The idea of deploying a peacekeeping force to Ukraine is indeed noble. But the UK have four deployable brigades for such a task. These would need to be re-rolled into a coherent entity or BCT, plus a corps level HQ which would be expected by allies. This would exhaust the British Army – with many units up to one third non-deployable. The notion of a 10k UK force I’ve seen doing the rounds is simply laughable. At most, a brigade, and this would exhaust the Army past 18 months (3 rotations).

2. The absolute fallacy of Starmer thinking he can send a credible force – whilst *still* insisting in private he won’t go above 2.65% GDP for defence spending – is utterly shameful. The cost of deploying even one brigade will cost billions extra a year – whilst straining the Army to its seams. To commit UK forces but not be prepared to fund it adequately is shameful, and shows no signs from learning from Iraq and Afghanistan.

[Robert Clark]

Worth noting that. Not that I agree that sending Brit troops to Ukraine is in any way “noble“. We, as Brits, have neither selfish interest nor any moral obligation to do so. “Ukraine” as a state has existed for only 33-34 years, since 1991.

Since then, it has been the most corrupt “state” or quasi-state in Europe. The Kiev regime is not only corrupt but brutal and shambolic. Trade unions are banned, dissidents arrested or even shot or otherwise disposed of. Elections should have been held, at latest, a year ago.

Zelensky and his thieving cabal (with their overseas villas and offshore bank accounts) have stolen literally billions, and rule by decree and brute force. Few Ukrainians volunteer to fight; most, almost all now, are either drafted compulsorily or are pressed into service after having been abducted off the streets.

Moreover, Britain has effectively no historical ties of any substance with the region, and none with Ukraine as a state, because until 1991, Ukraine was merely part of the Soviet Union, and before that part of the Russian Empire.

Starmer and his ludicrous Cabinet of idiots have nothing in the tank. I am not referring only to the armed forces but across the board. They are empty of ideals, ideas, policies, and public support.

It funded the fake “movement” set up to oppose Brexit during the 2016 Referendum, and put in as figurehead that ridiculous “Femi” creature (Femi Oluwole), a loudmouth Nigerian know-nothing who makes a living by occasional TV appearances, online donations, and while living in his parents’ house (they are both NHS consultants): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Femi_Oluwole.

A British man who crammed a woman and child into a tiny car boot with little room to move or breathe has been jailed, the Home Office has said. Leon Leslie, 39, stashed the Vietnamese migrants a 14-year-old girl and a 20-year-old woman into the back of his hired Kia and tried to transport them to the UK.

[“British man“…]

Border Force agents found the pair wedged in the boot when they stopped the car in Coquelles, France, on April 16 last year. Leslie, from Birmingham, was arrested at the scene on suspicion of assisting unlawful immigration into the UK.

When questioned, he refused to offer any explanation as to why the woman and girl were in his car, the Home Office said.

Leslie was jailed for three years at Canterbury Crown Court On Thursday, September 26, having pleaded guilty.

Farage is, of course, a major aspect of the “controlled opposition” phenomenon.

Having said that, Reform UK may well have a part to play in destroying the “three main parties” scam in the UK.

The strategy of the System seems to be that, if/when the main System parties are finally binned by the voters, Reform UK will be there, under (((the usual))) control to catch the ball.

Only real social nationalism can save the UK and all Europe, but Reform UK, and the Farage-style parties on mainland Europe can, despite their origins and intentions, be a step towards what is necessary, moving the “Overton window” among the people, and that is what matters most.

“The Charity Commission has discovered that Naomi Campbell’s “anti-poverty” charity raised £4.8million but only £389K went to good causes.

I suggest she fills the hole from her personal $ 80million fortune. The commission have now banned her from running a charity for five years as they they found widespread financial misconduct.

Astonished there isn’t a police investigation.

It emerged during the inquiry that the charity paid £9,400 for Campbell to stay three nights in a five-star Cannes hotel where she was appearing in a fashion fundraiser for the charity. Surprise, surprise the charity had chosen its fashion to coincide with the city’s film festival. The stars were aligned! Further, she ran up a bill of £6,000, once again paid by the charity, on spar treatment, room service and even her cigarettes. A new low. Not even paying for her own fags.

Campbell, 54, set up Fashion for Relief in 2005 saying she had been inspired by her “ honourable mentor” Nelson Mandela. Don’t imagine Mandela wants his name linked in that way. The charity was supposed, to provide relief during humanitarian disasters. All it provided was supplying relief when you needed a packet of cigarettes.

Another trustee , a lawyer, was banned for 9 years. He had received £290,000 over two years in unauthorised consultancy fees but picked up an average £26,000 a year in expenses. All this scandal confirms is the reason many don’t contribute to charity.

Naomi Campbell has been up to her neck in all sorts of criminality for years. See, e.g. https://ianrobertmillard.org/2019/08/11/the-jew-epstein-and-prince-andrew-the-british-royal-family-has-another-scandal-maybe-its-time-to-just-get-rid-of-them/.

The Epstein scandal is but one example.

As for charities, the regulation of them is far too lax, from the political and other activities of the larger charities (and the massive salaries they pay to the few at the top) to the smaller ones, some of which are outright frauds, as with the “Captain Tom” nonsense.

Of course, the egregious online “grifters”, such as “Jack Monroe”, the Jew Simon Harris (aka “Man Behaving Dadly”), the Depher UK fellow, Julia Grace Patterson, Mike Stuchbery, “Supertanskiii” are not, most of them, registered as charities anyway.

An armed camp. Arguably the closest example in modern times to ancient Sparta.

I have to admit, though, that some of those girls wear their automatic weapons (etc) rather stylishly.

Kennedy Jr: The World Economic Forum is “a billionaires’ boys’ club that’s arranging for the world to shift wealth upward, and to clamp down totalitarian controls on everybody else”. “It’s astonishing to me that these people go to Davos in their private jets, and they’re able to tell these world leaders how to govern us in ways that eradicate our constitutional and civil rights.” Credit: @RobertKennedyJr. @glennbeck.”

…and even were there one, the puny efforts of human beings can do little to change the situation.

I was accused of being a shill again today. It is now 4 years since I started advocating pro bono on Twitter. I have had no salary or pension since. The idea I am conflicted because of financial gain is laughable. I was paid £78 through buy me a coffee until the Royal College of Pathologists put a stop to that. Twitter itself has paid me a total of $1000 Substack subscribers have very kindly donated £4,000 I netted £30,000 from book sales. Most my expert witness help has been pro bono but I have started charging this year resulting in £4000 I also have had a few hundred from the handful of media interviews I charged for. That is it. <£10k per year. I have never worked harder. I can’t begin to tell you what it has all cost me. Nor can I begin to tell you what I have gained.”

The guilty should —and I hope will eventually be— punished. The “Covid” scam dictators, those responsible for mass immigration and migration-invasion, the Zionist element too, and the 2010-to-present “austerity” propagandists, among others.

Ha ha! Then you think, “that is the best that they can come up with as a national leader, representing Haiti in front of the world“. Probably counts as one of their most educated, cultured etc…

If only they, and other Caribbean “states”, and African ones, would have the moral stature to exercise a little humility, and to admit that they need, before anything else, direct rule by white Europeans.

If only, also, white Europe and its overseas offshoots would recognize anew both their manifest destiny and their responsibility to rule and, included in that, their responsibility to protect also the non-European peoples and the world’s wildlife.

Britain in 2024

I happened to see this crime report in a local newspaper: https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/24606453.robber-disguised-police-officer-raided-wealthy-sandbanks-home/.

“Robber disguised as police officer raided wealthy Sandbanks home.

An armed robber who tied up and threatened to shoot the wife and daughter of a wealthy company director in their Sandbanks home has been jailed for 16 years.

Career criminal Aaron Evans and accomplice Ashley Fulton held Kerry and Emily Aitchison at gunpoint during the terrifying raid on their luxury home overlooking Poole Harbour.

After tying up Mrs Aitchison they threatened to burn Emily, 22, with an iron and then shoot her mother in front of her if she didn’t open the safe.

Brave Mrs Aitchison, 55, called the pair ‘scum of the earth’ and didn’t give them the code.

Evans and Fulton ransacked the £2.5m house before fleeing with more than £200,000 worth of luxury watches, designer handbags, jewellery and cash.

The bungling robbers made a catalogue of errors that led police to their door.”

[Bournemouth Echo]

The full report is worth reading.

What struck me most, apart from the unpleasant violence and the sheer ineptitude of the robbers, was the fact that those robbers, despite not having been able to gain access to the safe, yet escaped with over £200,000 in cash, jewels, and other items.

The report says that the husband of the lady attacked owns, via a company, 21 care homes.

There is something wrong with England, with its economy and society, when someone can own 21 care homes and profit so much that, even in his own home, he and his family have hundreds of thousands of pounds in cash and jewels loosely lying around. Plus whatever was or is in that home safe. Plus, no doubt, investments which may well amount to millions.

For me, that is an example of what a Conservative leader (Edward Heath) once called “the unacceptable face of capitalism” (though Heath was referring to a very different kind of company— Lonrho).

On a smaller scale, I once encountered another example of such profiteering.

When I was a barrister based in chambers in Exeter (2002-2008), I appeared fairly frequently, often several days a week, at Exeter County Court which, for silly ideological reasons, was planned and built without any parking available at all. People have either to walk to public car parks or find parking nearby.

I used to park at a nearby hotel, and occasionally talked to the elderly-seeming attendant. It turned out that the parking there was contracted out to the attendant’s son-in-law, who had left the Royal Marines without a penny, and had started one of those vulture clamping outfits, later getting contracts with hotels etc. As I was hearing this, a beautiful blonde drove out in a new Range-Rover. The attendant’s daughter. The wealth and display thereof had been acquired within only 2 years of car parking activity.

Britain used to make things, sell things, and have decent professions like the Bar (now mostly trashed), but not now; these days, rather unpleasant nouveaux riches “coin it” as parasites, rather than useful private enterprise people. Car parking. Care homes. Buy-to-let.

Good point.

Refers in part to a book, an anti-white diatribe called White Women.

Incidentally, I took the trouble to look up the book in question. It was published a couple of months ago, and presently ranks at about 19,000 in the Amazon bestsellers list. Using the Amazon Book Sales Calculator, that implies sales of only about 200 books worldwide per month. Not very many, but I bet that the “wokes” and the “you-know-whos” (((you know whos))) are getting it into the libraries of schools, colleges, and universities, mainly in the USA. More drip-drip anti-white poison.

The age differences are disturbing, though.

Brainwashed by the msm? Or (and/or) can they not see what might be the ultimate consequence?

Most horse racing in England does not involve cruelty these days. There have been many advances in the care and welfare of horses over the years, though minor improvements are still necessary. Rather disturbing that so many seem to think that such a traditional part of British and especially English life should be banned.

Part-Jew nasty little blot, George Osborne, talking about how great is HS2, and how good things such as the motorway system have been. There is a contrary view.

I myself remember, when aged about 21 (1977-78), the sections of the M25 in Surrey still largely unbuilt. At that time, I lived near the top of Reigate Hill, very easy walking distance from what is now the roundabout/interchange at Junction 8 of the M25. The M25 running east from there was nearly finished, but the bit running west was still being constructed.

Indeed, as a child (early/mid 1960s), I recall an England almost entirely devoid of motorway. In many respects it was better that way, though I concede that that may be regarded as a “Little Englander” or even “Luddite”, point of view.

When the motorway system was put in place, driving long distances became much easier. However, a certain character was lost, and that loss continued and deepened in the 1990s and up to the present day, made worse by the cancerous growths of new housing projects (“boxes for people”, if you like). I suppose that anyone under 40 —or even 50— would struggle to understand, though.

[re. the “alleged” “grifter”/”fraud”, “Jack Monroe”].

It makes me laugh how so many of the ill-informed and ignorant on Twitter believe that an action in defamation can be launched easily and with almost-guaranteed success. Few understand even the basics of defamation, or of the economics of litigation.

Would the British people not have been much better off without corrupt Kurdish carpetbagger Nadhim Zahawi? Some tweeters live their lives without logic.

Ukraine— stray thoughts

Let us take the probably-mistaken idea that “Ukraine is winning” to the max, to the reductio ad absurdum. Let us suppose that the forces of the Kiev regime expel Russian forces from all of pre-2014 Ukrainian territory, including Crimea. What then? Does Russia, or Putin, just accept that? Is that the end? I think not.

Ukrainian forces cannot cross the borders of Russia, even marginally, without provoking not only a response from the Russian Government but also from the Russian people, who would then be “triggered”, as people now say, to defend “Holy Russia”, their native land or “rodina“.

For the first time since the incursion/invasion of 2022, the Russian Government would then enjoy almost-unqualified public support in fighting the invading forces of the Kiev regime.

It is unlikely, though, that the Kiev-regime forces can in fact expel Russian forces from Ukrainian or former Ukrainian territory. Russia has a far greater population, a functioning economy, vast economic resources, and a nuclear backstop.

The logic seems to be that either Russia prevails in the present conflict, or that it is pushed out, only to then return with far greater numbers and might within a year or two.

In the end, Russia will annex Ukraine east of the Dnieper, whatever happens in the meantime. Unless a major East-West hot war starts first.

He himself is standing down at the next general election. If it becomes widely known that charging for NHS services is the “Conservative” Party direction of travel, the already-anticipated loss of Conservative Party seats might be historically large, even if the NHS is not performing properly at present.

The road to Hell is paved with good intentions“, as we know. The proposed rules no doubt aim at giving the American “poor” a better diet instead of the diabetes-2-tending (and generally unhealthy) one that includes white bread and “American cheese” [a particular kind of processed cheese sold to the public as “Kraft slices” etc: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_cheese].

The particular type of cheese disapproved of includes what is or was called “Government cheese” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Government_cheese].

The price, though, is freedom of choice; and the other restrictions, such as “one car per family”, are obviously repressive, though of course in many countries only the wealthier part of the population(s) have even one car. Poverty is relative.

“Bootstrap Cook” has raised only one person out of “poverty”— herself (and quite possibly not even that).

Both true, and that is before you even think about “Bono”, Bob Geldof etc…

As the psychiatrist in one episode of Fawlty Towers remarks, “there’s enough material there for an entire conference“.

More accurately, “it” may be defamatory but, if “true”, is not actionable defamation.

That “@blackwolfski” tweeter is just so typical of those who have a whole fake worldview of “woke”-ism. Akin to wearing a jacket of msm lies: supports “Jack Monroe”, Jacinda Ardern, Labour Party drones etc, and is entirely impervious to any “unapproved” truths. Note the faux-serenity and faux-“concern” of his (fake, “passive-aggressive”) good wishes to tweeter “@scbusiness4”.

Hard to judge to what extent that was so but, if accurate, it sounds like very bad behaviour (to say the least).

Tweeter “@jimellis123” is another very typical “Jack Monroe” supporter-type: the man of 50+ or 60+, retired or unemployed (as it seems), not seemingly poor or “struggling” (except possibly with mental “issues”); socio-politically— narrow-minded.

David Icke used to follow my Twitter account. In fact, leaving aside organizational and corporate accounts, mine was one of a very small handful that Icke followed.

I was expelled from Twitter in 2018 after a campaign by the usual whining and/or demanding Jews, connected to the so-called “Campaign Against Antisemitism” [“CAA”].

Icke was also expelled from Twitter, a couple of years later. Same situation. Same pack of Jews.

Such expulsions are the main reason why Twitter is now relatively dull in every way. I use it as a convenient way of filling gaps in my blog with news and comment but, as a real tool of influence in itself, it has been killed, and killed by “them”. It’s always “them”…

Quite a few of the vandalistic sort of “anti-Semitic” actions seen over the years in the USA, UK etc, actions such as drawing swastikas, damaging bits and pieces in Jewish cemeteries etc, have actually been found to have been perpetrated by Jews, often with the motive of Jews being then able to whine about how oppressed they are by —mainly invented— “antisemitism” etc (which then leads to money —many millions of pounds in the UK alone— being given by government to Jew-Zionist “security” (snooping and strongarm) orgs to pay for, supposedly, an increase in security at Jewish religious and educational centres; also leading to pressure for laws being passed to restrict “anti-Semitic” comment online and offline.

Polanski

Far be it from me to defend a Polish Jew, but truth demands exposure. As a film director, Polanski is pretty good. It is ironic that one of his least-interesting films, arguably, is (again arguably) his best-known— Chinatown [1974]. I saw it very long ago, and found it confused. Perhaps I should see it again before being too critical. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinatown_(1974_film)

What has always struck me about the films of Polanski is the element of surprise and, indeed, shock, that they all seem to have. Most if not all have some scenes where the unexpected slaps you in the face.

As to the sex crime with which Polanski was charged in 1977, perhaps I am being too kind, but it strikes me as a bit of a storm in a teacup. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_Polanski.

Yes, Polanski having a sexual encounter with a young girl (13-y-o), was a crime under Californian law. She seems to have been not unwilling, which though irrelevant legally, has at least some relevance in background terms. She has made public, as an adult, the fact that she does not want Polanski to be further penalized. Anyway, it is long ago now, 45 years in fact.

There is a kind of neo-Puritanism about, which demands that artists (even ones long-dead) must be very straitlaced, which not all are. I suppose that the fuss about Eric Gill is another fairly recent example. So must we destroy or remove from public view the works of, say, Caravaggio?

The nonsense about Polanski and others is akin to the demand of the “Black Lives Matter” idiots that statues and other memorabilia associated with persons themselves even obliquely associated with slavery be removed or destroyed. If that were carried into effect, almost all famous people from 15th to 19th centuries (in the UK and many other countries) would have to have their statues torn down. And what of the surviving statues of ancient rulers and others? Or does the present pursed-lipped disapproval apply only to black slaves?

Midsomer Murders

Saw an episode of Midsomer Murders, the first seen by me, as far as I can recall, for two or three years. Basic format much as in the past, but “the Great Replacement” agenda has really taken over.

In the small Berkshire/Oxfordshire-type village(s) in question, in the past all-white, the white English are now scarcely a majority. The first scene, at the village green, had some English people, but also blacks, browns, and Chinese, in numbers.

The demographic change was so marked that it made me laugh. It was as if (?) some “woke” idiot had gone round with a clipboard, ticking off “types”, as in “now let me see…three Chinese, several blacks, a few Indians and Pakistanis, a few white English.…” etc. The final scene was absurd: the two (white English) detectives, the last planned (but saved) victim (Indo-Pakistani), and three perpetrators— a black woman, another Indian, and one white English. In a tiny English village in the country…

Several years ago, “activists” complained that the show was too English. It “needed” more blacks and browns, they said…

Transparent, of course, to someone of my age etc, but that kind of propaganda is aimed at those of much greener years. Normalization of a basically non-English, non-European, society.

Not sure that I entirely agree, despite “Boris” himself, repeatedly over the years, trying to present himself as a kind of am-dram Churchill.

Whatever the many flaws of Churchill, he was certainly a great historical figure, with real talents. To compare Churchill to Boris-idiot is to insult the former and flatter hugely the latter. I say that despite being implacably opposed to most of Churchill’s policies.

As I have blogged before, if comparing Churchill to “Boris” at all, the verdict must be, in the famous words of Marx, “first time— tragedy; second time— farce“… (from Marx’s 18th Brumaire, if I am not mistaken; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Eighteenth_Brumaire_of_Louis_Bonaparte).
