Saturday quiz
Well, this week a clear victory over political journalist John Rentoul; he scored 3/10, but I trumped that with 6/10. I did not know the answers to questions 5, 8, 9, and 10.

Utter barbarity.

How is this “news”? It has been obvious to all for weeks.
When I had a Twitter account (the Jew-Zionist lobby had me expelled in 2018 after a long and conspiratorial campaign), I found that practically all the “hate” directed against me came from Israel-fanatic Jews, together with a few non-Jew but vicious and/or mentally unstable types such as fake “doctor” Louise Raw, a loonie from Manchester calling himself “DaveAFAF” and a half-crazy part-Jew psychiatrist called Tim G. Stevens of Essex (Epping Forest area), most of whom were also pro the Jewish lobby and Israel.
One especially egregious one was minor Jewish academic Ben Gidley, who was obsessed with me, my views, my Twitter account etc, and set up a number of pseudonymous Twitter accounts (“BobfromBrockley”, “IntheSoupAgain”, “AntiNazisUnited” etc) in order to troll night and day. Eventually, I worked out his real identity, as did, not long afterward, others such as the journalist Peter Hitchens. Gidley had to shut up and go away after that.
Most, in fact almost all, of the vitriol came from Jews, several of which have now, however, died.

I have commented previously on the fact that in the UK we are now moving rapidly to a non-civic society, i.e. one where people vote (whether in elections or when on juries) according to racial and cultural loyalties. Call it the “O.J. Simpson syndrome” if you like.
I fully support the jury system, in principle, and was myself a practising barrister for a number of years (1992-2008, based in London and later Exeter when not overseas), but the jury system falls to pieces in a “multicultural” society. The same is true of voting “democracy”, and a police force that can be relied upon.

At various times in history, states have promulgated “sumptuary laws”, defined by Wikipedia as follows:
“Sumptuary laws (from Latin sūmptuāriae lēgēs) are laws that regulate consumption.[1] Black’s Law Dictionary defines them as “Laws made for the purpose of restraining luxury or extravagance, particularly against inordinate expenditures for apparel, food, furniture, or shoes, etc.”[2] Historically, they were intended to regulate and reinforce social hierarchies and morals through restrictions on clothing, food, and luxury expenditures, often depending on a person’s social rank.
Societies have employed sumptuary laws for various purposes. They were used to try to regulate the balance of trade by limiting the market for expensive imported goods. They made it easy to identify social status and privilege, and as such could be used for social discrimination and to stabilize social hierarchies.[3][1] They could also be used to prevent, or at least reduce, opportunities for political bribery and corruption.
The laws often prevented commoners from imitating the appearance of aristocrats and could be used to stigmatize disfavoured groups. In cities of the Late Middle Ages, sumptuary laws were instituted as a way for the nobility to limit the conspicuous consumption of the prosperous bourgeoisie. Bourgeois subjects as wealthy as or wealthier than the nobility could undermine the latter’s presentation as powerful and legitimate rulers. This could call into question their ability to control and defend their fiefs, thus inspiring traitors and rebels. Such laws continued to be used for these purposes well into the 17th century.”

I think there are cogent arguments for similar laws in the UK at present. Let’s stamp on the nouveaux riches types (indeed, all of the excessively-rich) and those aping them and their lifestyles, including “influencers” and “celebrities” of one kind and another.
Society needs calm and reason, and a less-materialistic ethos.
Plain living and high thinking.

[“BREAKING: its been revealed that Andy Burnham snapped up an ex council flat in Kennington for just £215,000 in 2005 while serving as an MP.
He then happily billed taxpayers for the mortgage interest payments because the rules let him get away with it.
That same flat is now worth 480000 to 500000 pounds and he rents it out while insisting the income barely covers his costs and he makes no profit.
Yet this is the same man demanding rent freezes council housing takeovers and lower rents for ordinary people.
Pure hypocrisy from a classic Westminster grifter feathering his own nest on the back of the system he loves to lecture everyone else about.“]
They destroy everything.
Monkeyworld UK. It really is time to recognize that most of them not only cannot create anything worthwhile, and certainly not a better society, but cannot even live in our existing society (even as parasites). Pests. Unwanted pests.
I had heard previously of how cruel some of the Israeli Jews are to donkeys. Arabs in Egypt can also be callous towards donkeys, if not actively cruel and, as early as 1914, British people set up charities such as the Brooke Hospital to care for the donkeys of the Middle East; the Arabs either could not or would not. However, there is that perversity in the Jews which we see in other areas, such as their cowardly sadism towards children and other defenceless people in Gaza and elsewhere.
Donkeys are, after cats, my favourite animals. Hard to understand why some lower types would harm them, but that is something one learns with life experience(s)— people are not created equal, in any sense.

That was first posted by me about 10 years ago, on Twitter (the Jewish lobby goblins had me expelled from Twitter in 2018).
10,000, too! There are “only” 18,000 active barristers in England and Wales anyway, and that is about 3x the number of 50 years ago. “More will mean worse“, as they say…
Incidentally, re that tendentious “Readers added context” note, it all depends on what is “officially” called a “hate crime”…
[“Living in the UK is now incredibly radicalising. This is what we have seen in the last two weeks alone: a gang of Afghans who entered the country illegally on small boats and lorries have been charged with 40 child sex offences: two Muslim men who visibly assaulted police officers have been let off from a further trial; a small boat migrant living in a taxpayer-funded hotel was found guilty of sexually assaulting two women outside nightclubs; an Islamist terrorist who plotted to blow up an army base is being released early; a white British boy was handcuffed by police and bled to death while saying “I can’t breathe” after the Sikh boy who murdered him claimed the white boy was “racist”; a Muslim man who called to “behead the Jews” was released on bail while white British people who tweeted their complaints about immigration have been jailed; a group of [“traveller” Irish tinker] boys who gang-r*ped and filmed two girls escaped jail and were given fines of £26; a new study found that for every ONE young British person who is hired in Britain TWENTY-SEVEN young migrants from outside Europe; Islamic prayers are now routinely used to open local councils; another 1,000 illegals arrived on small boats in one weekend; it was revealed the First Lady of Sierra Leone owns a council flat in London while 1.3 million people wait on the social housing list; new data revealed that last year alone 800,000 migrants arrived in Britain while 246,000 British people left, half of whom are aged 16-34 years old; the country’s birth-rate collapsed to a new low of 1.39 while politicians refuse to even talk about how to support British families; a grooming gang in Dewsbury was jailed for nearly 300 years combined after assaulting children as young as 12. Oh, and the entire political class had a nervous breakdown when the British people decided to peacefully protest over what is happening to their country on the streets of their capital city. As I say, radicalising.“]
